COVID-19 update: cases, county risk level, vaccines County expected to remain in the Low Risk category

A

Hilary Dorsey Staff Writer

s of Thursday, Feb. 4, Tillamook County has a total of 346 confirmed positive COVID-19 cases, according to Oregon Health Authority. The Tillamook County Health Department is monitoring 12 individuals currently, the health department reported during a community update Friday, Feb. 5.

Administrator Marlene Putman said Oregon Health Authority’s Warning Week data indicates Tillamook County will remain in the Low Risk category for an additional two weeks.

“If cases arise above 30 over the next two weeks, we would be at risk of moving to a higher risk category, which would be effective on Feb. 12, but we’re keeping the numbers down,” Putman said.

Final risk status and data will be announced Tuesday, Feb. 9.

“Our first dose distribution for vaccines for Group 1A – that includes a defined list of Groups 1-4 – total first doses for that group are 1,744 doses,” Putman said.

This includes first responders, long-term and group living facilities, daytime/outpatient care, all other health care providers and public health settings, and more.

Some who had been hesitant in

these groups before have now decided to get the vaccine.

The health department hopes to complete doses for public and private schools by the end of the week of Feb. 1. They will work on child care providers and early learning afterwards. The county receives doses in separate allocations for the first and second doses.

Putman said vaccine partners will start with Phase 1B, Group 2, the week of Feb. 8. Eligibility for those 80 years old and older begins Feb. 8. The first vaccine event will take place during the week for those in this group.

The health center has launched an online eligibility form for the

COVID-19 vaccine for those 65 and older to gather information of those interested in being vaccinated. You can fill out the form or, if you cannot access the form, call 503-842-3914. The form is available at https://bit.ly/3tspnxo Putman said the county will keep getting vaccinations but it will be in small amounts. By filling out the form, the health department will call you when a vaccination site is available. If you have questions, call the health center’s vaccine information line at 503842-3914.

The health department is still waiting for more information from the state about vaccinations for the

Low Risk designation means businesses can breathe sigh of relief T

illamook County moved from Extreme Risk category to Lower Risk on the state’s Sector Risk Level Guidance chart, which means businesses that were shut down due to the county’s CO-

VID-19 levels, were able to open up again. And it could not have come at a better time for most.

“We were closed down totally for four months out of the year last year,” said Tillamook YMCA CEO and Executive Director Kaylan Sisco. “We’ve been very busy since last Friday.”

The local YMCA depends on memberships, donations and grants along with fund-raisers to keep it’s doors open, so being locked down was difficult.

Adventist Health Tillamook President Eric Swanson said 261 people are currently hospitalized in Oregon with COVID-19 and 764 ventilators are available. Adventist Health Tillamook Hospital has given a total of 989 vaccines, to date. Over 75 percent of the hospital’s medical staff have been vaccinated.

“Eighty percent have actually received their second shot,” Swanson said. “We’re continuing to get people vaccinated.”

State to speed up vaccination timeline O

Zack Demars Country Media

regon seniors may receive doses of the COVID-19 vaccine faster than previously expected.

Thanks to additional planed doses of the vaccine to come from the federal government, Oregon has plans to speed up its statewide vaccination timeline, state health officials announced during a conference Feb 5.

The state’s now projecting three quarters of health care workers educational staff and seniors to become eligible within the next four weeks will have received a first dose of the vaccine by early April, about a month ahead of the state’s previous projection.

“This is really good news. However, we still have a long way to go,” said Oregon Governor Kate Brown.

A quicker timeline for vaccinating seniors means the state will be able to reach other groups sooner too, according to Oregon Health Authority Director Patrick Allen.

“That’s good news for seniors. It’s also good news for frontline workers, people with underlying health conditions, and others who are next in line,” Allen said.

The new projection comes after federal health officials promised the state an increase in vaccine doses in the coming weeks, Allen said. He laid out the three factors which impact how quickly the state can distribute vaccine: The number of available doses, the size of the eligible population and the rate at which vaccination sites across the state could be distributing vaccine.

That third factor isn’t an issue, as Allen said the state could be vaccinating twice as many people as it currently is.

“That leaves supply and demand as the limiting factors,” Allen said.

According to Allen, new dose allocations announced by the federal government mean the state will see more than 75,000 doses of the vaccine a week. The increase includes 11,600 more doses a week in the state’s standard allocation, and 12,000 new doses a week through a federal pharmacy partnership program.

Starting the week of Feb. 8, Allen said the state will begin using 5,000 doses a week to vaccinate adults in custody in state prisons and county jails, as well as eligible youth in custody of the Oregon Youth Authority, in line with a federal court order issued Feb. 3 mandating the state vaccinate prisoners.

There could be more improvements on the horizon, too, as Allen said the state’s timeline doesn’t take into account the possibility of a third vaccine, produced by Johnson & Johnson, which could enter the supply chain by early March pending federal approvals.

Still, despite the accelerated distribution projection, Friday’s press conference wasn’t all good news. The announcement came the same day the state announced its 2,000th virus-related death.

“Each life lost to this horrible virus is one too many. I know each number here is someone’s mother or father, child, best friend or colleague,” Brown said. “It’s difficult, and it’s heartbreaking, and my thoughts are with each of these families.”

What’s more, the health officials are preparing for difficulties over the next several weeks, when hundreds of thousands more Oregonians are in

Meet new Tillamook School District board member LaDonna Coon Hilary Dorsey Staff Writer

LaDonna Coon was appointed to the Tillamook School District Board of Directors during a board meeting Jan. 11. Michelle Gordon had resigned from the board, position 2. Coon was appointed to fill the vacancy of the term, which ends June 30.

Coon works at the Oregon Department of Human Services as an operations manager and has been there for over two years. She previously

worked at UnitedHealthcare Insurance, where she was a letter writer and subject matter expert.

“I moved to Tillamook in 2013 with my husband and kids,” Coon said.

Coon and her husband have four children, three of which have graduated from the Tillamook School District and one is a freshman at Tillamook High School. Their youngest son graduated from the high school last year.

Coon said she attended a few board meetings before joining. She believes it was

last year when she attended her first meeting.

The board was doing a survey, asking for parent input regarding grants.

“That was what piqued my interest for wanting to be on the school board,” Coon said. “I just felt like this need or this desire.”

Coon added that she has

always had a desire to give back to the Tillamook community and believes it is a great place to raise children.

Regarding the school board meetings, Coon said, “I find them very, very informative.

The members of the school board are very engaged and open to hearing the community as well

as listening to the teachers and faculty.”

The board also gets input from student, which is great to see, Coon added.

So far, Coon enjoys being on the board and feels the other members are very eager to help her learn and hear her input.

The next regular election is scheduled for May 19, and Coon plans to run.

“Even running in the school board, is something totally outside of my box,” Coon said.

“That’s how you grow. Step out of your box and do new

things.”

Coon said she is an open book as far as joining the board. She feels the board is already high functioning and seeks to learn from them, while bringing a different perspective to the table as a person of color.

“I grew up in a small town in Oklahoma,” Coon said. “I understand small towns, but I also attended high school in California, so I kind of have this different, unique perspective that I feel like would be valuable to the board.”

Health department provides COVID-19 vaccine update Hilary Dorsey Staff Writer

As of Wednesday, Feb. 3, Tillamook County is at 381 positive COVID-19 cases, Tillamook County Community Health Centers reported during a Tillamook County Board of Commissioners meeting. The health center is currently monitoring 18 people.

Emergency Coordinator Ed Colson said Oregon Health Authority’s (OHA) “Warning Week” data indicates Tillamook County will remain in Low Risk for an additional two weeks beginning Friday, Feb. 12. Final numbers for the

two-week period will be available Tuesday, Feb. 9.

The current vaccine total for Tillamook County is 1,179, as of Jan. 28.

Vaccine partners expect to vaccinate 390 more people in Phase 1A this week, Colson said. Groups 1 and 2 are complete.

This includes first responders, hospitals, long-term and group living facilities and foster care, among others.

Colson said OHA plans to notify the health department of vaccine allocations for a three-week period. They were previously notified four days before vaccines were delivered. This will help them plan to vaccinate more members of the public.

Vice-Chair David Yamamoto said he sees some angst in the community about side effects of the second vaccine dose.

Colson said with some side effects from the booster shot may come up, such as elevated temperature or fever. The health department will have more information on side effects as people receive their booster shots and are working on their messaging.

Pandemic: Tillamook, Columbia, Clatsop, to share $250,000 in relief

Staff Report

As Oregon communities and social services agencies continue to struggle under the strain of the multiple waves of the COVID-19 pandemic, CareOregon announces it is investing an additional $500,000 to support communities served by its coordinated care organizations Jackson Care Connect and Columbia Pacific.

Each organization will distribute $250,000 to community based organizations serving their communities.

“The cumulative stresses of this pandemic are adding up and people are hurting,” CareOregon CEO Eric

C. Hunter said. “That’s why we are working in partnership with our coordinated care organizations to get resources out in a way that can really make a difference on the ground. Our coordinated care organizations know their communities best and I’m excited to support their efforts to address the most urgent needs of those they serve.”

Columbia Pacific and Jackson Care Connect teams will work to identify where these funds will have the greatest impact in their regions, which include Tillamook, Columbia, Clatsop, Columbia, and Jackson counties.

“This is one of many ways that CareOregon’s connection to Columbia Pacific helps em-

power our local communities to determine the best direction for this COVID-19 related funding grant,” Columbia Pacific Executive Director Mimi Haley said.

“This additional infusion of funding from CareOregon will help us provide continued support to organizations that are filling critical needs in our community, where we are seeing the dual impacts of both COVID-19 and the disastrous fires from last summer,” Jackson Care Connect CEO Jennifer Lind said.

Since the pandemic hit, CareOregon has mobilized financial resources to ensure access to health services.

This included offering both provider support and

community-based grants to address Social Determinants of Health. This funding will allow both Columbia Pacific and Jackson Care Connect to continue to offer support where most needed in their communities.

Columbia Pacific CCO coordinates health services for Oregon Health Plan members in Columbia, Clatsop and Tillamook counties. For more information about Columbia Pacific, please visit www. colpachealth.org.

Dave and Ruth Freitas are in the process of rebuilding their eight-by-twelve-foot greenhouse. That greenhouse took a hit from big winds that tore loose its anchor bolts and landed the structure in the blueberry bushes! Good job, neighbors, for keeping up with weather-related repairs.

I have heard from a couple of locals whose relatives have had the COVID-19 vaccine. Louise

Bogard’s sister-in-law had the Moderna vaccine and reported no reaction after the first shot, with some shortterm side effects after the second shot (chills, fever of 100, feeling lousy). She took a painkiller at that point and felt normal in about three hours. The Pelsons’ daughter, Shelby Hunt, had two shots of the Pfizer vaccine. Her only symptoms were soreness at the injection site after the first shot and mild chills, headache and nausea after the second. She took a pain reliever after the second shot, slept and woke up fine the next day. Shelby is the Director of Emergency Services

Now that I am thinking Valentine’s s weekend, it reminds me that Dale and I got married on Valentine’s Day 1976. That’s 45 years.

I always add to that that we dated for six years on top of that. Happy Anniversary to the most wonderful guy in the world. Life is truly an adventure every day.

Be sure to shop our local stores for your Valentine’s Day gifts. I don’t shop often right now, but when I do, I realize how lucky our community is to have such awesome stores.

She reports that only 1.2% of the employees receiving the vaccine there had symptoms, and most were mild (headache, body ache and/or mild fever). She points out that the body is going to respond

our donations- so, if you donate $200, the assistance program will net $400. It’s a great way to help our Tillamook County neighbors stay warm this winter.

I included some information is last week’s column regarding the distribution of the COVID 19 vaccine locally. In summary, we’re advised to be patient; we should keep wearing masks and practicing social distancing when we must leave our homes.

One caveat is not to take painkillers before the shots but rather after, if at all (check with your doctor for specific recommendations), thus enabling your body to mount the most effective antibody response.

TALES FROM THE LIBRARY Bill Landau Extension Librarian Tillamook County Library

L

ibrarians naturally have an interest in words and how they are used. One thing I have noticed is how some words and phrases that previously never got much attention are being uttered with much more frequency since COVID started.

Mask-up. Social distancing. Curbside pickup.

Pandemic. Self-quarantine.

Flatten the curve. Herd immunity. And my favorite buzzword, the topic of this column, binge.

Webster’s defines binge as “an unrestrained and often excessive indulgence”. While there are lots of things in the world people can binge on (chocolate being my personal favorite), in libraries we see people who binge on books and movies. With that in mind, we are introducing a new product for movie enthusiasts: Binge Boxes!

What is a Binge Box? It is a quick way for you to check out a collection of 4 – 6 movies on DVD, all with a common theme. Let’s say you were in the mood for a western film. You could check out the Binge Box we call

“Best Western” and you could watch the following films in your home theater: Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid, Once Upon a Time in the West, McClintock, Unforgiven, True Grit, and John Wayne in The Searchers.

n State Continued from Page 1 line for a relatively short supply of vaccines.

“Next week, when seniors begin to become eligible, we will see some degree of chaos,” Allen said Friday.

“Next week, many older adults will inevitably voice frustration. Next week, you will not have to look hard to see people experiencing confusion. We will fall short.”

The smooth rollout of vaccines to Oregon’s elderly will require patience and understanding, he emphasized.

Westerns not your thing?

Then maybe you would be interested in the set we call “Never Travel with Tom Hanks”. This Binge Box contains four of Mr. Hanks’ adventurous films in which a travel disaster is a common theme: Castaway, Captain Phillips, Apollo 13, and Sully.

What about if you just want to have a good laugh?

Then “Gut Busters” Binge Box might be a good bet.

Inside this DVD case you will find Mrs. Doubtfire, Wayne’s World, Tommy Boy, Ace Ventura Pet Detective, and the silly classic, Dumb and Dumber.

For the romantics out there, we have some titles aimed at those who enjoy a simple love story. The set called “Somethin’ Sappy” has the following films: Dirty Dancing, The Notebook, Never Been Kissed, How to Lose a Guy in Ten Days, and When Harry Met Sally. Or we have a Binge Box called “Indie Love Stories” featuring five films that tug at the heartstrings: 500 Days of Summer, The Big Sick, Blue Valentine, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, and Nick and Norah’s Infinite Playlist.

We have 20 Binge Boxes in all for a starting collec-

tion and I will be ordering more soon. Other themes include football movies, classic monster films, musicals, weddings, and many others.

They are easy to find in our catalog. All you have to do is go to www.tillabook.org and search for “Binge Box” and the whole list will show up.

You can place these titles on hold and pick them up at your favorite Tillamook County Library location.

While the library is happy to supply the Binge Boxes for your movie marathon, the popcorn binge is up to you!

I’ll have a little extra butter on mine, please!

He noted that not everyone who becomes eligible will get a vaccine right away, but may have to wait several weeks to move to the front of the line.

“As we’ve said all along, our limitation isn’t capacity,” Allen said. “It’s supply.”

Some pharmacies across the state will soon have doses of the vaccine to administer to eligible individuals, Allen said. That’ll be one option for seniors to get vaccinated, alongside vaccine clinics, local public health authorities and long-term care facilities.

According to the state’s vaccination timeline, individuals 80 and older will be eligible for vaccines Feb. 8. Those 75 and older will be eligible on Feb. 15, and those 70 and up will be eli-

gible on Feb. 22. On March 1, anyone 65 or older will be eligible for a vaccine.

Health officials have developed several methods for getting information about getting a vaccine. The state’s covidvaccine.oregon.gov website contains general information about the vaccine and vaccination eligibility.

Starting Feb. 8, that website will be home to a “Get Vaccinated Oregon” tool developed to help individuals determine their eligibility for a vaccine, find vaccination events across the state and register for alerts about their eligibility.

The tool won’t guarantee a place in line, as vaccination appointments are made by vaccine providers.

People call also text “ORCOVID” to 898211

to get text updates about nearby clinics in English and Spanish, or email ORCOVID@211info.org with questions.

As a last resort, statewide vaccine eligibility information is available by calling 211 or 866-698-6155, though officials caution that wait times may be very long given the high call volume, and Allen suggested seniors should wait until their age group is eligible before reaching out for more information.

“I’m asking older Oregonians for patience, in exchange for this promise: While it will take time, every senior who wants to get vaccinated will get a vaccine in the coming weeks,” Allen said.

The YMCA is open from 5 a.m. to 9 p.m. Monday through Friday and from 8 a.m. to noon on Saturday and closed on Sunday. The pool hours are Monday through Friday form 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. and closed on Saturday and Sunday.

Joel Baker, owner of Kitty’s Food and Spirits is also happy to be open and back serving food, drinks and playing music every Tuesday and Saturday.

“We used the time off to spruce up the place,” he said.

“We have new floors and redid the walls and lighting fixtures along with a deep cleaning we fixed up the place.”

Baker hosts live music on Tuesday and Saturday nights and he plans on continuing that now that he’s back open.

Joel who plays drums for the Joel Baker Band, with Carl Wilson on guitar and Scott Neuman on keyboard and vocals, usually draws quite a crowd on Saturday nights.

Baker suggests reservations every Saturday especially now that they have to operate at 50 percent capacity.

“Business has been good since we were able to reopen,” Baker said. “In a few weeks we are bringing in a traditional country music band, so that will be a treat for the community.”

Robert Henry Band out of Portland will be at Kitty’s on Saturday Feb. 20. “He’s big on the Fair Circuit,” Baker said. “They are big, they will be coming back from Nashville to get ready for their fair performances, so they will be ready to jam, it should be a very fun evening.”

Baker employs eight people and after the break, they are happy to be back at work.

“I have such a great crew of caring people,” Baker said.

“We’re happy to be able to be back open doing with we do, I’m very grateful.”

Continued from Page 1 lost about 25 percent of our membership,” Sisco shared.

“But we came out of it OK due to the generosity of this community.” Sisco had to do the annual fund-raising gala virtual this past fall, but said they did well despite it not being a plated dinner event like the community is used to.

According to Sisco, the YMCA can currently operate at 50 percent of capacity, which is not a huge issue for them because the facility is quite large.

“We had 800 visits since last Friday,” he said. “This time last year we had just over 2,600 visits so we’re operating at about a third of last year since we reopened.”

During the shutdown, Sisco and his staff helped the local Food Bank and volunteered delivering meals or food to people who were shut in and could not leave their homes.

Sisco says his team is also glad to be back with people showing up for classes, to

he usual Sunday chaos was ensuing in our home. Making breakfast, bathing kids, and getting them dressed. Nothing out of the ordinary. Unfortunately I was running late, something I detest.

I swiftly put my 3 year old in an outfit of my choosing. She was not impressed and began to cry.

I, in my own world and haste, scolded her. She wanted a frilly princess dress and I wanted to be on time. As we made our way down stairs she continued to cry. It was not the crying that made me freeze. It was what she had said. “No one will like me because of my dress!” I froze. Instead of brushing off this comment, a decision was made. She was more important than being on time. My three year olds values needed to be corrected. She believed that her clothes were more important than her and that troubled me.

I picked her up and placed her on my bed. Lowering myself to her level and wiping away her silent tears I coaxed her into saying that she is more than her clothes. That she is kind, smart and so much more. ​That night I reflected on this moment. I thought about how I personally love clothes and indulged in them frequently.

Then I thought about what message I am giving her when she watches me get dressed, changing clothes when I don’t like what I see in the reflection.

The enjoyment of clothing was not the root of the issue. As the week went by I noticed that my daughter was being applauded for her beauty and how cute she was. That she would receive comments on her appearance and not her defining values or characteristics. ​This experience led me to wonder, how much worth is placed on appearance and how does that affect our development? Women are programed at a young age that somehow our value can be determined from our outward appearances.

Magazines and media have made it clear that the pretty

prosper. Culture has its say as well and sure, there are many attributes that contribute to this somewhat skewed perspective.

A quick solution for building a strong women is by paying attention to her many other qualities as a child. Praise a child for their work ethic, their efforts, kindness or honesty instead of their natural abilities. Doing so will give value to important characteristics that define adults at a young age. These forms of praise will help build grit when things are difficult, opposed to natural talent. Most things in life do not come easy and anything worth having is worth working for. The grit needed to reach goals is built from hard work and not only natural talent. Praise a child for their effort in a clear and progress focused manor instead of their beauty. ​I reached out to my family, sharing this story with them.

Requesting that they praise my daughter for her kindness and intelligence 3 times more than her looks. To help her understand that although she is beautiful and has a passion for clothing that she is much more than that. After deep consideration I will be changing how I praise children, potentially having an lasting impact on their mindset.

ello, my name is Carolyn Decker, I am one of six Board Members for Friends of Tillamook Air Museum.

Our purpose is to raise money to make repairs and replacements to the Hangar. We will do that through donations, grants, fund-raising and etc.

It is really important that you know about this majestic, historic building. Watch for my articles.

I will tell you about the building, the reason it was built, how it was built and it’s purpose. The story will come in bits and pieces.

Today I will tell you about the physical part of this open span, all wood piece of art.

Work started in November 1942. The first thing that happened was, the land had a forest growing on it.

My father was one of the timber men that cleared the land. This Hangar was built by the Navy. The Navy hired the workforce locally and also from as far as the Mid-West. The weather was horrible. Tillamook experienced 18 1/2 inches of rain in Novem-

Street. When it comes to COVID and safety guidelines, we are following the requirements from the Oregon Farmers Market Association.

That means, just like last year, all vendors will be in masks, they will be properly spaced out, there will be hand sanitizer available, and shoppers will be required to wear masks and maintain distance.

We are hoping to bring back hot, prepared food this year, but of course, that depends on who applies!

Again, if you have a delicious idea for a food item you would like to serve to shoppers email me so we can talk about it. Anything for consumption on the premise also has to go through the health department so it can take a few extra weeks to get approval. In other words, don’t wait until the last minute to apply!

As soon as we are able to, we will bring back things like live music, kids activities, demonstrations, and all that fun interactive stuff. Until then, we appreciate everyone who makes the effort to shop small and support our vendors. Having a neighborhood farmers market is a privilege, and it takes all of us supporting it to keep it going.

Be sure to follow Tillamook Farmers Market on Facebook for more updates as we get closer to the season opening. And to learn more about the Market, email me at sayde@tillamookchamber. org.

ber, December brought 19 inches and January 1943 16 inches. It took 3 million board feet of lumber to build this giant. That is enough lumber to build 279 family size homes.

So, here are the numbers that tells you how BIG this giant is. Hangar ‘B’ is 1072 feet long (Note, (Noah’s ark was 440’ X 72’ X 43’). A City Block is 100’ lot. This building is over 10 blocks long. The width is 296 feet and 192 feet up to the top (crown).

ously. If the roof was flat, it would be 12 acres. At one time, a small plane flew through the Hangar.

There is a picture of it. I’m told that the letters on the roof are 100’ long. I can only imagine how much it is going to cost to replace the roof or just repairing all the leaks could be huge.

Two major repairs necessary are the roof and the front doors do not open properly. I’ll tell you about that later.

To be honest with you, our job is overwhelming.

We need your help! To get the big grants we need 13 board members and we need community help and donations. This building and its purpose is part of World War 11’s history. I will tell you about the job they did to save lives.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Hypocrisy runs deep in letters section In response to the many letters written in the Headlight Herald regarding their article about Facebook censorship, I could only shake my head, roll my eyes and laugh at the hypocrisy of every letter written.

In your very letters, written and published through a private newspaper, your right to free speech was given freely.

Yet, in exercising your right you condemn the very right itself. Facebook, while private, in it’s very essence promotes itself as what it was intended originally to be. A place for speech on a social media platform to enhance and expand the very basic right of speech to all individuals and a way to allow that to happen.

Tiffany entrusted Facebook with her thoughts, memories, pictures and life events. It’s not just that they removed them from sight as if they never existed, but stole them from her never to be seen again.

Many of you committed the act of assumption or outright lies yourself in your own letters, making false statements as to her being a liar or promoter of violence. At least one of you is guilty of having spread actual lies about Tiffany on Facebook, about her place of employment and promoting boycotting a local business that she is not, nor has ever been affiliated with.

All because she has a different viewpoint. Were you banned from Facebook for that act?

Here’s the Crux of the entire issue.

Freedom of speech FEDERAL VA SUPPORT has no VETERANS limit! As humans, we HEALTH ADMINISTRATION https://www.va.gov/health/ have free will, because of that Health Care & Disabilities Health Care, Dental &views.

Non-Combat Conditions we have various Those Prosthetics and Sensory Aids Portland VA Medicalto Center views then lead opinions, (503) 220-8262 OR 800-949-1004 those opinions are based on VETERANS BENEFITS ADMINISTRATION

https://benefits.va.gov/benefits/

our own personal experiences. Opinions are not true, false, lies, or gospel. There are feelings based on our own personal experiences and how we as individuals interpret those experiences.

Who are you to say that I cannot have my own opinions and express them? That’s like saying because my favorite color is green and yours is blue you must tell me I’m wrong to like that color over yours and that I cannot express my like of the color green.

Do you not see the hypocrisy of your own actions when you condemn someone else for the very same action?

What if the newspaper didn’t put your letters in the editorial column because they didn’t agree with you. What if they censored or change the content to align with their beliefs?

The First Ammendment protects freedom “of” speech, not freedom “ from “ speech!

Yes, private businesses can do what they choose, but Facebook’s act of censorship negates the premise of what their product promotes. That in itself then becomes a lie.

The Headlight Herald reported a story to you. As all media should be, they are concerned about freedom of speech, considering freedom of the press goes hand-in-hand with it.

For myself, I will slowly remove my profile from Facebook. I am finding many other alternatives and now have found Phoenix social network a comparable site, yet they allow my voice an open mic.

Coming to editor’s defense In regards to the story about Ms. Jacob being censored by facebook I feel the need to come to Mr. Warren’s defense.

I think he was just trying to lay out the facts without expressing an opinion. It is up to us to form our own opinions based on those facts. I am personally grateful to the headlight herald for bringing it home to the community that what is happening to our country isn’t out there some where. Its here. Right here in Tillamook.

People all over our country are believing the lies spread by extremists. It has led to an insurrection of our capital. I’m glad facebook is finally getting a handle on the problem. I dont think Ms. Jacob or many others like her are bad people.

I think they have been led astray. I fear for our country and for all those usually good people who are believing the lies. I dont know what the answers are but my hope is that people will see the truth and that the truth will in turn keep us free.

Tech Censorship Hits Home”.

The vitriol that the writers of these letters had for the woman in the article and for the editor who dared to publish her story was alarming.

Politics is downstream of culture. While free speech is currently protected under the First Amendment of the Constitution, I worry that our culture is shifting away from the values that uphold this precious right by calling for censorship. While it is true that Facebook is a private company that has the right to do what they want, it is also true that Facebook acts as a public square for people to share information and have open conversations about important topics. However, it is no longer an open forum when people are shut out of the conversation. If our culture not only accepts, but calls for censorship and profile deletion of anyone that they deem disagreeable, then I fear that our First Amendment rights will also soon be deleted.

It is frightening to think that so many people willingly accept Facebook as the arbiter of truth. Are we willing to allow this company and their algorithms to decide what we see and how we communicate?

It might suit your needs today when Facebook is deleting profiles that you find disagreeable, but what about tomorrow when Facebook decides that your profile is the new unmentionable?

The spirit of free speech allows people to speak their mind without the threat of being silenced. Instead of insisting that unfavorable ideas are shut down, let’s rise to the challenge of a proper debate in an effort to present a better, more sound idea.

door for her Facebook posts, or if the State were to pass a law that she wasn’t allowed to post about certain beliefs on Facebook. However, Facebook can remove posts and people as it sees fit, and there is no censorship or threat to freedom of speech taking place. Labeling such actions as a violation of free speech simply displays a lack of understanding of what free speech really is.

Bryan Pohl Tillamook

David Audet’s Freedom of speech It is mind boggling, trying to understand the democrat party’s rhetoric. I will try to get my point across with a few examples.

If a woman has a baby then throws the baby into the garbage, leaving the infant to die, it’s a crime. Yet during an abortion, if somehow the baby comes out alive, now it’s OK to kill the infant because, the woman has the right to choose.

Democrats say it is necessary for conservatives to work with them so the nation can heal, where were they for the past four years? Democrats wanted to investigate Trump’s Russian collusion yet will not look into election fraud by allowing a forensic audit.

In a DEMOCRACY the majority rules, and a REPUBLIC protects the minority.

Democrats constantly say they are for the little guy, yet take money from the financial giants. In a democracy majority rules, leaving small businesses (minority) out in the cold. (This example goes to any minority, if you think about it, we all fit into one of many minorities.) A republic gives equal protection, example each state has two Senators no matter the size or population.

It’s hate speech if something said is not politically correct or someone is offended.

But is not hate speech when democrats are degrading a portion of society, by saying “ they are drags of society” or “ tell them they are not welcome”. So what is freedom of speech? I may not like what someone says yet I don’t have the right to tell them they’re not allowed to speak. Another example Is in the words of Jeff Merkley US Senator from Oregon says, a judge who follows the constitution is “Extreme Right and Anti-American”.

This quote from the Senator is far from the truth, so is it your opinion David, the Senator should be cut from media to express his opinion?

The examples are endless.

So David Audet, you did not read any of Tiffany Jacob Facebook etc. and you are implying she is guilty inciting violence, that is truly amazing. It’s also amazing how are

you able inform us, how the financial giant Facebook is thinking.

Tillamook needs more volunteer efforts It was good news to read in the Herald that a volunteer group dedicated a work day to Kilchis Point Reserve. It is always a joy to be a part of Tillamook County history. A bit of a puzzlement and concern to see the group without masks, but maybe that was just for the photo. The volunteer effort should be extended to the City of Tillamook at large, with business owners stepping up to improve the appearance of the downtown area. Further, driving into the city from the north leaves the impression of a not very attractive entrance to town. Maybe property owners could plant trees along their frontage. Tillamook owns the old Safeway site as a soccer field.How about improving that property with a line of trees? Civic pride seems to be lacking,and the first impression from visitors isn’t what is could and should be. I hope businesses, residents, and City parks staff all make an effort to creating a visual statement of civic pride to Tillamook.

Why are we being shorted the vaccine Why is Tillamook Country near the bottom in receiving vaccinations? As of today, January 19th, according to the Oregon Health COVID People Vaccinated by County website, Tillamook ranks fourth from the bottom with 422 vaccinations per 10,000 population. Only Douglas, Malheur, and Columbia counties have a lower ranking.

While the number of deaths is interesting and scary, I am more interested in the process of vaccinating this county’s population. When will it be happening, how will we be notified, where will it occur?

Headlines about vaccinations continuing to occur are too vague and provide no useful information. Neither my pharmacy nor my doctor know, and all of my friends and family are asking the same question.

The Headlight Herald should investigate and report, and our county commissioners should step forward and get involved.

Thanks to the mask wearers for keeping this 80-year-old alive.

Building a healthy relationship with food Katlyn Wolf Oregon State Dietetic Intern Future Registered Dietitian

W

hat does pleasant hunger feel like to you? This can be a hard question to answer! Pleasure and hunger don’t always seem to belong in the same sentence.

Unpleasant hunger makes more sense. “Hanger” and the negative emotions associated with a feeling of “starvation” come to mind right away. Luckily, hunger can be pleasant if it is realized early on and leads to intentional planning of when and what you eat.

Pleasant hunger is thinking to yourself “I think I’m ready for a meal/snack” and allowing yourself to consider what’s available, sounds satisfying and meets your health goals.

You sit down to eat and find yourself savoring your food.

This is a pleasurable feeling!

On the other hand, let’s say you ignored that initial hunger cue. Time passes, you start to feel impatient and anxious, maybe you have a headache or feel shaky. You’ve reached a point where you don’t care what you eat, you just. need. to. eat! You scarf down whatever is within reach, not paying attention to how it tastes, how much you eat or if it’s truly satisfying. While you might feel relieved afterwards, wouldn’t you rather have enjoyed the complete eating experience?

Enjoying your eating experience is a concept of intuitive eating, or mindful eating. It encourages listening to your body’s cues about hunger and food. It’s also sometimes called the “anti-diet approach” because it takes the rigidity out of eating we see with dieting. Mindful eating frees you from the “dos and don’ts” of eating that a culture of fad diets attempts to instill in us.

Mindful eaters have more body appreciation, they enjoy eating, and they experience fewer disordered eating behaviors like intentionally skipping meals, yo-yo dieting, and feelings of guilt and shame

around food. Mindful eaters also tend to be more food budget conscious- something we can all appreciate!

Below are the 10 principles of intuitive eating, developed

by Evelyn Tribole and Elyse Resch. (https://www.intuitiveeating.org/) Remember, these principles are guidelines, not rules. Food and rules are like oil and water; they just don’t blend.

1. Reject the Diet Mentality - Has living in a culture that promotes fad diets distorted your thoughts about yourself?

Has it impacted your social life, opinions about food, or your personal relationships?

Try redirecting your time and energy into something meaningful that brings you joy.

2. Honor Your Hunger How do you handle your other bodily cues, like a full bladder? When you feel the need, you use the restroom without following “rules” or questioning if you “deserve” it. Try approaching hunger in the same, ordinary manner. Eat when you really are hungry or find an alternative activity (read, dance, listen to music, etc.) if you’re actually bored, emotional or looking for a distraction. Consistent and accurate honoring of hunger cues heals and rebuilds connection with your body.

3. Make Peace with Food - While traditional food fights

(the kind that involve messes) are fun, the battle between food “rules” and your needs or wants is anything but fun.

Try taking a bite and then ask yourself: how does this food taste?

4. Challenge the Food Police - The food police enforce those unreasonable rules that diet culture has created.

Remember, food and rules don’t belong together. Work with a Registered Dietitian Nutritionist who can help you find healthy eating style that works for you.

5. Discover the Satisfaction Factor Explore your food, especially taste, texture and aroma. Does it bring back any memories? How does it make you feel? Satisfaction in eating comes from within.

6. Feel Your Fullness We’ve explored pleasant hunger; how would you imagine or describe how pleasant fullness feels?

7. Cope with Your Emotions with Kindness While food is comforting, it can’t solve our problems. Consider writing down how you’re feeling, making a pros-andcons list, or calling a friend.

Explore actions that might offer you some clarity.

8. Respect Your Body How awesome is it that you have your very own, one-of-a-kind genetic blueprint? Nobody is like you! So, is it fair to

compare your body to another body, or judge your food preferences or cravings against those of others?

9. Movement- Feel the Difference Can you reflect on a time, perhaps as a child, when you looked forward to physical activity? What has changed, and how can you rebuild that positive relationship?

10. Honor Your HealthGentle Nutrition Healthy eating looks different for everyone- there is not a perfect formula. Try making food choices that honor your health and preferences while also making you feel good.

After practicing intuitive eating ideas for a while, you might find yourself going for a walk because you want to, not because you “have to.”

Maybe you’ll try your hand at art, pick up a fun book, or try a new yoga class. Practicing intuitive eating can help you honor your needs -social, emotional, cultural, physical, etc.- and find pleasure in truly nourishing yourself. Hopefully these ideas bring peace to your meals and snacks!
