North Bend looking at growing need for grants

By DAVID RUPKALVIS For The World

The new city council is North Bend will face a tall task in the coming weeks as the council tries to come up with a way to distribute $11,400 to nonprofits in 2023.

Finance Director Jessica Terra met with the council in a work session last week, telling them the amount of money requested in community grants is growing each year.

Traditionally, the city council has given money from state shared revenue funds to nonprofits that help

North Bend residents. In the current budget, the city council agreed to give $11,400 in community grants.

Terra said in the 2023 cycle, there were 13 requests, totaling $39,300.

The council will have to decide how to give the funding away at its January 10 meeting, so Terra asked them to consider the requests now.

Mayor Jessica Engelke explained that the council is not obligated to fund any request, but it has been a long-standing tradition of the council to help where it can.

“What we have done in the last

number of years is we take the requests, and we divide it evenly, so everyone gets a little,” Engelke said. “But we don’t have to do that.

If we keep getting more asks, we could dilute it to the point where nothing can be done.”

The requests included:

Alternative Youth Activities$1,000 to pick up abandoned shopping carts in the commercial district of the city.

Bob Belloni Boys Ranch$5,000 to help provide mental

health services at the ranch.

Boys and Girls Club - $2,000 for the fee-waiver program.

CASA - $2,000 to recruit and train CASAs, who advocate for abused and neglected children.

Common Ground Mediation$5,000 to recruit and train volunteers for the mediation program.

Knights of Columbus - $1,000 to purchase food that goes into the holiday gift baskets.

Little Theatre on the Bay$5,000 to pay the theatrical performance licensing fee for the summer

youth theater production.

PEG Broadcast - $7,800 to purchase three computers.

SMART Reading - $1,500

Southwest Oregon Veterans Outreach - $5,000 to assist veterans in a variety of ways.

The Devereux Center - $2,500 to help return people to their families or to communities they have lived in prior.

The SAFE Project - $1,500 to help provide transportation and emergency services for victims of domestic violence and sexual assault.

School choirs bring Christmas cheer to town

By DAVID RUPKALVIS For The World

The holiday season shone bright Wednesday night as the Marshfield High School and Marshfield Junior High School choirs brought Christmas cheer to Marshfield Auditorium with their combined winter choir concert.

During the concert, guests got to listen to the junior high choir, high school mixed chorus, the high school concert choir, the New Horizons Carolers and the mass choir of all age groups.

From the introduction, where the choirs marched into the darkened auditorium

A holiday miracle

As the different choirs changed roles on the stage, Director Brett Aakre led the audience in sing-alongs of various Christmas carols. Throughout the night, Jeffrey Varga accompanied the choirs on piano.

In all, around 100 students in the choir program put on a performance that will be remembered by many.

Thanks to the heroic efforts of Central Coos Fire and Rescue, there were no serious injuries when a car slid off the road and landed top down in the river near Allegany on Wednesday. Fire and Rescue was called to the scene and determined the occupants of the car were safely able to get out of the vehicle. While the occupants were safe, one person could not get up the steep embankment. So the firefighters set up a pulley system, where they were able to lower firefighters to the person and help them back up the embankment, where Bay Cities Ambulance was waiting to care for the occupant.

State Land Board takes historic action toward Elliott State Research Forest

The State Land Board took historic action toward creation of the Elliott State Research Forest, decoupling the forest from Oregon’s Common School Fund and appointing the first board of directors for the new public agency to be established in 2024 to oversee the research forest in collaboration with Oregon State University.

As an asset of the Common School Fund, the Elliott was continually caught between the financial obligation of the forest to support public schools and the forest’s potential to provide benefits beyond harvest revenue.

The decoupling vote –made possible by payment of $221 million to the Fund – frees the forest of its historic obligation to generate revenue for K-12 public schools. The forest remains in public ownership, under the oversight of the new Elliott State Research Forest Authority agency created by Senate Bill 1546.

“This is a day to celebrate the creation of the largest research forest in North America, the Elliott State Research Forest,” said Treasurer Read. “The Elliott will provide a better approach for working forest management, improve conservation protections and, significantly, keep the forest in public hands. We can be proud that current and future generations of Oregonians will benefit from this valuable natural resource.”

The Land Board also prospectively appointed the initial nine-member Board of Directors of the Authority. See the appointment agenda item for board member terms and bios. The appointments are effective on the Jan. 1, 2024, establishment of the new agency. The members appointed today will serve as informal advisors to the Land Board and Department of State Lands as work

Opinion: Promise of Manufacturing and Innovation Law Is Increasingly Apparent

By COLIN SEEBERGER InsideSources.com

After decades of watching American jobs being shipped overseas and other countries leapfrogging the United States in innovation, President Biden’s landmark bipartisan China competitiveness bill, the CHIPS and Science Act, is building a stronger and safer economy for all Americans, even as it provides an opportunity to work more closely with international partners.

One needs to look no further than the recent news to understand its potential.

Last week, Biden visited Phoenix to mark an announcement from Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co. (TSMC) that the firm plans to more than triple its investment to manufacture semiconductors in the state.

The announcement marked the most significant private-sector investment in the crucial swing state and one of the largest direct foreign investments in the United States. The president was joined by Apple CEO Tim Cook, who announced the company would use these newly “Made in America” chips for its products.

In reshoring chip manufacturing to the United States, TSMC is creating good-paying American jobs, Apple and other manufacturers are fortifying their supply chains, and the Biden administration is leveraging the CHIPS Act to boost its strategy to neutralize the threat of foreign competitors like China.

With Taiwan producing nearly all of the globe’s advanced microchips used for essential products like phones and computers, China’s hostility to the island poses acute threats to the national and economic security of the United States and our allies.

Announcements like that from TSMC would only be possible with the economic incentives included in the CHIPS and Science Act. In fact, it is just one of several recent announcements crediting the Biden administration for making this progress possible. In August, Micron announced that, because of the bill, it would make a $40 billion investment in onshoring advanced manufacturing of semiconductors, creating 40,000 jobs and strengthening education and workforce development pipelines. GlobalFoundries, which makes advanced chips designed by QualComm, announced an expansion of its chip production capacity for 5G transceivers, WiFi, autos and computers, among other goods, which will boost job creation in upstate New York. In September, Intel broke ground on a $20 billion semiconductor

advanced manufacturing plant, representing the largest privatesector investment in state history and creating 7,000 jobs.

While chip production has received a fair bit of attention from the media since the bill was signed, the law’s support for scientific research and development has received less, which is ironic given McKinsey & Co. notes that about 70 percent of the $280 billion bill’s investments go toward scientific research and development and commercialization at the National Science Foundation, the Department of Energy and the Department of Commerce.

But a new development this week could change that. On Tuesday, Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm announced that U.S. scientists produced carbon-free energy through a nuclear fusion reaction for the first time. The announcement follows decades of research and development support from the U.S. government. While it likely will take at least a decade or more to understand and maximize its full potential, if the energy can be sustained, scaled and ultimately commercialized, this governmentbacked research breakthrough could have implications for the global fight against climate change, national security and our economy.

The new law provides an opportunity for the United States to build on this and other exciting innovations while finding new ones to secure a healthier and safer future for all Americans.

Taken together, these developments show Biden’s economic plans are creating jobs and boosting manufacturing now while laying the groundwork for the United States to win the 21st century over the long term by making things in America again, out-innovating our peers, and keeping us safe from external threats like hostile, anti-democratic countries or a future global pandemic.

All of these factors will put downward pressure on costs for consumers. It’s one of the reasons the president’s party delivered the best performance in nearly a century in this year’s midterm elections, even in the face of headwinds like global inflation.

After decades of manufacturing decline, jobs being offshored, and a race to the bottom on wages for American workers, this new legislation is welcome news for those who have been left behind or feel squeezed by rising costs.

Opinion: A Call for Diversity of Thought on Twitter

By HORACE COOPER InsideSources.com

Early in December, Project 21 — an organization that aims to elevate Black conservative and libertarian voices — sent a letter to Twitter owner Elon Musk requesting a meeting to discuss free speech on the embattled social media platform.

This came days after the NAACP, National Urban League and National Action Network requested a meeting of their own to curb what they describe as a rampant rise in White supremacy on Twitter. The claims made by these groups are without merit and most likely motivated by a failure to maintain ideological control over Twitter.

The letter expressed Project 21’s support for Musk’s vision of a “digital town square” that allows citizens to exchange their opinions online. While Musk’s goal of a free and fair social media platform has enraged Americans on the left, as more information is released regarding the partisan internal corruption at Twitter, it is clear that the abuses were extensive and that reform is needed.

Publicly released documents known as “The Twitter Files” vindicate many on the right who were decried as all but deranged when they claimed Twitter was censoring their content.

For example, Dan Bongino, a prominent conservative voice and host of “Unfiltered” on Fox News, had his account shadow-banned by Twitter. The same can be said for Turning Point USA Founder Charlie Kirk, whose account was censored multiple times in the last five years without explanation. The Twitter Files now prove these claims of unfair treatment were justified.

But it gets worse. After the newest release of the Files, we now know that the actions weren’t made by rogue mainline Twitter employees. It was Twitter’s leadership. Turns out there was a direct correspondence between senior Twitter executives and the Democratic National Committee and the Biden campaign in the lead-up to the 2020 election. The executives agreed to

“handle” potentially damaging facts that were revealed about Hunter Biden and his laptop. One consequence was the October 2020 New York Post laptop story being suppressed on the platform.

The political effect was quite substantial. The Technometrica Institute of Policy and Politics released a survey in August showing that 79 percent of respondents believed that “truthful” coverage of the laptop story would have changed the outcome of the 2020 election.

Project 21 seeks to meet with Musk to ensure that Twitter maintains its commitment to free expression. Free expression on the site will have a long-term effect on Black Americans. Conservative voices of Blacks like Candace Owens (suspended in 2018), Brandon Tatum and Second Amendment advocate Colion Noir likely will allow their voices to bring their center-right messages — unencumbered by authoritarian censorship — to a Black population that continues to shift further to the right.

It’s no wonder the NAACP is attempting to paint Twitter as a White supremacist haven. Unfortunately, the revelations of Twitter’s suppression have not drawn the ire of Americans on both sides of the aisle. History has shown repeatedly that speech suppression — in any form — is a tool used by those who seek to hold power and force their opposition into submission.

While those on the left will continue to raise a ruckus watching their prized political tool get a much-needed facelift, Americans — no matter what party they vote for — will benefit greatly.

Society operates best when ideas can be freely exchanged without fear of censorship, shadow-banning or doxxing. Musk’s aggressive action to overhaul Twitter is a great start, but we still have a long way to go to undo the damage other media and social media outlets have done to public discourse.

Opinion: After the FTX Fraud, It’s Time to Be Even More Bullish on Crypto

By YAËL OSSOWSKI InsideSources.com

When the Securities and Exchange Commission announced charges against FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried this week, it ended a nearly 2-month-long drama.

Bankman-Fried’s unethical business setup between his hedge fund Alameda Research and crypto exchange FTX (including the 130 related companies now in bankruptcy) were enough of a worry for the broader cryptocurrency economy and devotees of decentralization. But as we’ve come to learn, the abuse of customer money was far worse.

There were billion-dollar loans to Alameda Research and FTX executives and staff, comingling of customer and company assets between the various entities, and seemingly invisible liquidity printed up on one company’s balance sheet while it was actually on another. These meet the classic definitions of fraudulent behavior.

Many perceive the FTX collapse as a novel crypto affair, dealing with digital assets and cryptocurrencies. But FTX’s downfall is best described as a

typical financial fraud found on Wall Street.

FTX ran a fractional reserve bank using printed money as collateral, gambling away customer money in risky products while paying out clients using money from other investors.

Bernie Madoff could not have designed it better.

While many will claim that more regulation or oversight is necessary for the crypto industry in the aftermath, the case of FTX seems more like a failure of existing systems than a loophole.

Regulators at the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission and members of Congress regularly met with FTX’s team, lavishing praise on their meteoric rise.

Celebrity endorsements, Super Bowl ads and stadium sponsorship deals gave the offshore exchange clout with mega investors such as Kevin O’Leary and Bill Ackman, who still defend BankmanFried. Highly regarded banks and investment funds similarly poured billions of dollars into the company’s pockets while doing limited due diligence.

Whatever failure that may be, it is not one of unclear regulation or the speculative nature of digital currencies.

Bitcoin — as a decentralized digital currency — did not cause each of the player in the FTX saga to look the other way.

A prudent approach would be to apply cautious regulation that recognizes the revolution of cryptocurrencies and enforces existing laws.

The answer to preventing the next FTX lies less in creating convoluted regulatory environments stricter than the banking system, as some propose, and more in applying existing laws while promoting a pathway for legitimate entrepreneurship.

Self-dealing, fraud and market manipulation remain illegal and should be prosecuted.

These are basic principles that we have all agreed to follow, and one we hope our public officials recognize, no matter the asset.

North Bend Warriors win I-5 Shootout

The 6th grade North Bend Warriors are back to their winning ways again this year, winning their first of eight traveling basketball tournaments this season. The Warriors defeated McMinnville, West Albany and Pleasant Hill in the championship by 16 points.

Head Coach Josh Snoddy states, “I’m really impressed with the kid’s toughness in this one. We’ve had so many bugs running through our team, and without having our full team together yet for even one practice, this was an unexpected championship. The Pleasant Hill team had ex-Duck and NBA veteran Luke Jackson’s son on their team, it was neat for the kids to see Luke in the gym. I reminded the kids that Luke Jackson was

from a small town like us (Creswell), later becoming the #10 overall draft pick in the 2004 NBA Draft.

“We’ve got some kids on the team with some big dreams, and Luke helped them realize that those dreams are achievable.”

Two players for the Warriors had big weekends and we’re elected to the All-Tournament Team by vote of the coaches: Gavin Snoddy and Lauryn Garrigus

The Warriors will be traveling again this next weekend to Medford for the MBA Winter Classic Tournament.

“We’re excited to travel South for the first time, seeing 12 teams from the Southern part of Oregon and Northern California,” Snoddy said.

Longest Night Blue Christmas Evening Prayer 6 pm, December 21st Faith Lutheran Church, 2741 Sherman Avenue, Coos Bay

All are welcome to join us. While Advent is a season of hope and Christmas is a season of joy, not everyone feels hopeful or like celebrating. Grief, illness, aging, depression, loneliness, unemployment, and loss are magnified. Even those who are not struggling with losses may feel the stress of preparations and expectations around Christmas time.

A Longest Night/Blue Christmas service may provide a time and place of solace during the often frenetic days surrounding the celebration of Christmas. We come together seeking healing and room to share grief, sadness, loneliness, confusion, or simply a quiet space when these emotions often feel out of place during the holidays.

In the Northern Hemisphere, December 21 is the longest night, the winter solstice. It marks the shortest day of the year, the official start of winter. Tradition says that nature and all her creatures stop and hold their breath to see if the sun will turn back from its wanderings, if the days will lengthen and the earth will once again feel the sun’s warmth. On this darkest day of the year, we come with our honest yearnings seeking

Trauma-informed yoga is a slow-paced, inclusive yoga practice. Influenced by Forest and Kundalini yoga, Iowa’s classes emphasize breathwork to ease tension. The intention of the practice is to create a safe and supportive space where participants can reconnect with themselves, feel safe in their bodies, and learn strategies to reduce anxiety. The practice emphasizes safety, empowerment, and learning resiliency and self-regulation. Iowa trained at Oregon School Yoga Institute, is a certified yoga instructor, and is certified in trauma-informed yoga.

This program will be both live and virtual. To attend virtually, please register at https://tinyurl. com/yxfcc6wy. Participants should wear comfortable clothing and bring a water bottle with them.
