For the past three weeks, Latino has been adjusting to the long days and nights at sea aboard the 63-foot crab boat. Recently, he just returned from a 27-hour trip that was followed by cleaning the boat, offloading the crab and

Lincoln County Commissioner Claire Hall has filed to run for re-election.

Hall, the senior member of the board of commissioners, was first elected in 2004 and has been re-elected three times. “When I first ran for this job, I said it was the county’s responsibility to make our communities safer, healthier and more prosperous, and I continue to make those goals my priority,� Hall said. “I’m running on a record of solid achievements, as well as a vision to carry the county into the future.�

Hall cited her leadership on housing and homeless issues on the local and state levels, which helped fund construction of a 110-unit apartment complex opening later this summer in Newport, a 21-unit complex in Yachats and nearly tripled funding for emergency housing assistance statewide.

Commissioner Hall is a member of the Oregon Housing Stability Council, the main state body setting housing policy and advising the Oregon Housing and Community Services Department.

During her more than 15 years in office, Hall has represented the county on a number of regional, state and national boards and committees. “I was proud to be president of the Oregon Association of Counties in 2017,�

Hall said. “AOC is an organization that represents elected officials across the political spectrum, and I appreciated their vote of confidence in my fairness and even-handedness.�

Hall says she will continue to improve services for people with mental illness and substance abuse issues who are involved in the criminal justice system. “We know the present approach doesn’t work—it’s clogging the justice system with people who would do better in treatment and not helping them toward recovery,� she said.

Taft 7-12 celebrates Native American culture at Cultural and Literacy events MAX KIRKENDALL newsguardeditor@countrymedia.net

Native American culture is strong in Lincoln City. And Taft 7-12 Indian Education Specialist Desiree Clausing is making sure students don’t forget that.

Born and raised in Lincoln City and a graduate of Taft High School in 2001, Clausing said there hasn’t been a fulltime Indian Education Specialist in their schools in many years. As a descendent of the Blackfeet Tribe of Montana, she knows how important Native American studies

are for our youth, which is why she has taken on this job that takes time, effort for minimal pay. “This position has a lot of responsibility and pays as a fast food franchise,â€? Clausing said. “The reason I’ve taken this job on is because it was on my heart to help our youth‌ Our future.â€?

This Indian Education Program not only keeps Native studies alive but it also provides students with extra support in graduation success, according to Clausing. It does not limit students to personal tutoring, but also provides extra resources

for scholarships and obtaining school supplies. Clausing is also president of the Native Student Association (NSA), which is a club open to all students that provides relationship growth and positive outlets in the community by finding ways to help inside and outside the Taft schools, all while still keeping the Native American culture alive. “I am pleased to announce our Indian Education Program and NSA club is running strong,� Clausing said.

Every other month, the program and club hosts a Cultural and Literacy night, open to everyone, which the community can learn about the wide variety of Native American cultures around us. “Our first event (in November) was gifted with drummers, song and dance, a

Local crabber finds passion at sea MAX KIRKENDALL newsguardeditor@countrymedia.net

Spending days out at sea collecting Dungeness crab sounds a bit daunting for most people. But for Lincoln City commercial crabber Tony Latino Jr., it’s a lifestyle he’s quickly taken a liking to.

Son of Tony Latino Sr., the owner of Tony’s Top Shop in Lincoln City, Jr. has been working for his Dad but has always had an interest in commercial crabbing. Drawn to a life at sea, and not to mention a wealthy bounty for a good catch, Latino had the opportunity to get his sea legs and join a crew for this year’s crabbing season. “My best friend Tyger Pear-

Gov. Brown announces judicial, district attorney appointments in Lincoln County MAX KIRKENDALL newsguardeditor@countrymedia.net

Oregon Governor Kate Brown announced today that she will appoint Marcia L. Buckley to the Lincoln County Circuit Court and Jonathan H. Cable to the position of District Attorney of Lincoln County.

Additionally, Jacqueline S. Kamins has been named to the Oregon Court of Appeals and Brendan J. Kane to the Linn County Circuit Court. All four appointments are effective immediately.

“I am proud to elevate this group of talented attorneys to posts in courthouses around our state,” Governor Brown said.

Gov. Kate Brown

“These individuals bring experience from all corners of the legal profession: some have been prosecutors, others defense attorneys.

They have litigated everything from family disputes to landlordtenant cases, and will be well suited to administer equal justice under our laws.”

Marcia L. Buckley is an attorney in private practice who focuses on domestic relations cases. She fills a vacancy created by the retirement of Judge Paulette Sanders.

Buckley earlier worked in the Lincoln County District Attorney’s Office, where she served as the Chief Deputy District Attorney.

She began her career in Portland enforcing child support judgments.

Buckley completed both undergraduate studies and law school at Lewis & Clark. She is currently president of the Lincoln County Bar Association and a member of the Oregon State Bar Disciplinary Board. She has also been a board member of the Lincoln County Foundation and the Newport Rotary International Club and she has coached the mock trial team at Newport High School.

Jonathan H. Cable is a criminal defense attorney in Newport.

He fills a vacancy created by the

resignation of District Attorney Michelle Branam.

Previously, for nine years, Cable was a prosecutor in the Lincoln County District Attorney’s Office. He earlier worked as a prosecutor in Ohio, where he began his career.

Cable is a graduate of the University of Toledo College of Law and Kent State University. He serves as a board member of Lincoln County Defenders and on the Uniform Criminal Jury Instruction Committee of the Oregon State Bar. In 2011, Cable received the Lincoln County Law Enforcement Recognition Award.

Family of 10-year-old battling cancer asks for community support MAX KIRKENDALL newsguardeditor@countrymedia.net

10-year-old Kane of Lincoln City just finished his last round of chemotherapy to treat an inoperable tumor on his pituitary gland. But in just a few weeks, Kane begins radiation treatment, and his family is asking for the community’s help.

Just before his 10th birthday, Kane was diagnosed with brain cancer. He has a tumor on his pituitary gland that was deemed inoperable.

His family has been right by his side every step of the way, but as the medical bills pile up and Kane nears the start of his six-week journey with radiation, his family is facing eviction from their home.

“Not only are they fighting for their son’s life, but now they must fight to find a new home and with so little to work with because they’ve already exhausted most their

Our children become sick, and as parents, we drop everything to help them

heal, keep them comfortable, and fight for them.

“Everything is sacrificed, physically, emotionally, mentally, financially and we start to wear down and feel beaten to the ground, and it

gets harder to fight, but we still do it. But this is where we can all help, help take some of the load off so they can stand a little taller, and keep fighting!”

To help her family, Smith

created a GoFundMe account. Her goal is to raise $7,000 to help the family get into a new home or find a motorhome to live in.

Thinking rural? The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) offers a loan program that is attractive for first-time homebuyers of residences in designated rural areas. Options include loans with little or no down payment and lower interest rates.

Income limits (determined by location) are also a consideration, and the home must be owner-occupied.

Don’t be confused by the term “rural.” Rural areas and home types vary. Many homes that qualify for this program are in traditional developments. Be sure to ask for details about designated rural areas.

Facts:

• No down payment is required (though limitations apply).

• Interest rates are lower.

• There are no lot size restrictions • USDA loans are limited to homes within designated rural areas.

• 100% financing and seller can pay 6% of the sale price towards borrowers closing cost and pre-paid items (borrower comes in with little to no out of pocket money).

• Manufactured allowed if home is 2006 or newer.

cleaning out the tanks. He understands it’s not for everyone, but he feels he’s cut out for the job.

“I wanted to do it for the challenge, not many people can do it and we had two guys quit first couple days out,” Latino said. “Being a crabber is an elite crew, not many people get respect down here until you put time in and show you’re tough enough to be around.”

But it hasn’t all been fun for Latino… it’s hard work. He said the first three days on the ocean he faced tough water conditions,

“This time opened a moment for students to share,

sleepless nights and a fast paced working environment. But eventually, Latino started to find certain serenity at sea.

“I had no idea what I got myself into working two days straight on the water… It was the hardest challenge of my life,” Latino said. “But I found I like working all through the night time to the morning.

I’m on the dark ocean and it’s peaceful.”

In addition to the calmness he’s found in the ocean, Latino has also formed camaraderie with his fellow crewmates and other fisherman in his short time as a crabber.

grow confidence and their social speaking skills.”

The event closes with the reading of a book strength-

“I really enjoy being around the docks and talking to all the other people on the boats and hearing the stories,” Latino said.

Along with his passion for crabbing, Latino has also had a passion for photography. He has taken his photography skills aboard his crab boat and will often take a quick moment to document an average day at sea. This resulted in the stunning photo of the rough ocean waves crashing over the side of their boat.

“I like to take all kinds of pictures all the time just because I like remembering good times,” Latino

ening knowledge related to Native American Culture.

“Every tribe is unique in its own way… To bring light to this strengthens our awareness in Native American Culture,” Clausing said. “For instance, I am a descendent of the Blackfeet tribe of Montana. Our beliefs vary from other tribes but still connect spiritually amongst our land.”

Clausing thanked sponsors Figaros, Gallucci’s Pizza, Safeway and Barrens book grant for all they donated to make the event possible. The next event will be held March 16 and May 18 both are from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. at Taft 7-12.

said. “The first three times I went out (to sea) it was pretty rough like you see in the photo.”

Although he’s still new to the commercial crabbing business, Latino said he’s found a joy for the work he’s doing and plans to do it every year. And as long as he’s living in the Lincoln City area, he should be able to do it quite easily.

“It’s only three months long and it makes enough money to where I can live here and I should take advantage of the opportunity,” Latino said. “Many people live in the city or inland and never have an opportunity to do this.”

In the future, Clausing hopes the Cultural events will continue to grow and expand even beyond the Lincoln City community.

She wants the events to be family oriented, community inclusive and centered on Native American activities.

“Being able to provide another avenue to support learning and education is a gift in its own,” Clausing said. “I’ve already had a great impact on lives in our schools with being able to provide services.”

Clausing also noted the support she has received from businesses such as Chinook Winds, who has been a sponsor of the Indian Education Program and recently brought back ‘The Sharing Tree’ program. The Sharing Tree is a program that supports local families, especially addressing needs youth in the community.

They provide warm coats, clothes, toys and books to those in need.

Another goal of the NSA

and Indian Education Program is to limit the impact of bullying in schools by bridging the gap between people with different cultures and beliefs.

“By bringing these kinds of events and having our program fully succeeding in our community will bring understanding of culture,” Clausing said. “It’s in the unknowing that can bring negativity. Bringing in the knowing and understanding will make a circle complete with relation.”

So far, the program and club has received great support from the community as a whole, but Clausing said they are going to need even more support if they want to make a lasting difference.

“In order for this to be possible I am going to need our entire community’s support, this is not a one person job,” she said. “It’s not going to be easy but it’s well worth the reward if we can all come together to make this possible.”

SNAP: Oregon sues Trump Administration THE NEWS GUARD

Oregon has joined fifteen states and New York City in a lawsuit to stop the Trump administration from eliminating food assistance for nearly 700,000 Americans.

According to a release from Oregon Attorney General Ellen Rosenblum, the lawsuit challenges a United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) rule that would limit states’ ability to extend food stamp benefits in places where jobs are scarce. The coalition of state attorneys general is urging the court to declare the rule unlawful and issue an injunction to prevent it from going into effect on April 1,

2020.

“The food stamp program (known as “SNAP”) has helped vulnerable Oregonians for over 40 years,” Rosenblum said. “It is hard to fathom why the federal government wants to punish thousands of adults in some of the most employment-impacted areas of our state—people who may not be able to find jobs—by taking away their access to food.”

More than 21,000 Oregonians who currently receive benefits could lose them beginning April 1, under the Trump Administration’s plan.

While the federal government pays the full cost of SNAP benefits, it shares the

costs of administering the program on a 50/50 basis with the states, which operate the program. Congress amended SNAP in 1996 to introduce a three-month time limit on SNAP benefits for unemployed individuals aged 18 to 49 who are not disabled or raising children.

Congress believed that states were best positioned to assess whether local economic conditions and labor markets provided reasonable employment opportunities. The law allows a waiver of the three-month limit for areas where data is presented by the state demonstrating that the area lacks sufficient jobs.

In a declaration filed with the lawsuit, the Direc-

VOICES OF THE COMMUNITY How dare me I might sound like a broken record when I keep repeating and repeating my alarm concerning our Climate Emergency and the need for deliberate, swift, powerful and sustained action on the part of every governmental body top to bottom as well as every individual left to right.

However, I must first hold myself accountable before my friends, family and the rest of the world; accountable to the dire conditions of my deteriorating and dying Earth. How much more do I need to know before I do something about what has already happened and continues to happen more forcefully day after burning, flooding and devastating day?

How is it that I can hold and kiss my three year old granddaughter and tell her “I love you”, while not doing everything humanly possible to stop what will either eventually kill her or make her life unthinkably miserable?

Why is it that I’m not willing to step up to the plate and sacrifice some, if not all, of my presumed entitlements? Like my careless consumption, thoughtless travel, over eating, wasting, endless diversions, addic-

tion to corporate news cycles that render me angry, helpless and brain-dead. How come I have become complacent, inept and comfortable in the face of my dying Earth instead of active in my participatory democracy in order to make things better?

There really is no excuse for continuing my self-indulgent ways except that I don’t care enough to change and update myself to accommodate what is being asked of me presently by what I am destroying presently.

So after four decades of steadily rising global warming, with nearly yearly heat breaking records; and most recently with the burning of nine million Australian acres and one thousand koalas, I say unless I am going to do whatever it takes to stop the madness and destruction of my egocentric and capitalistic ways, how dare me continue business as usual.

Bill Kucha, Depoe Bay

tor of the Self Sufficiency Program for the Oregon Department of Human Services, Daniel Haun, explained that as of November 2019, Oregon had 347,941 households, for a total of 586,781 Oregonians, who receive SNAP benefits statewide. Of these individuals, 21,886 Oregonians are potentially affected if this rule goes into effect. Their average food benefit ranges from $166-$186 per month.

Over the last 24 years, Congress has maintained the criteria for states to obtain waivers, and allowed states to carry over unused exemptions. It has reauthorized the statute four times without limiting states’ discretion. Shortly after President Trump signed the 2018 Farm Bill into law, USDA issued a proposed rule announcing these changes.

The USDA received more than 100,000 comments— the majority expressing strong opposition from a

broad range of stakeholders.

Regardless, USDA issued the final rule.

In the lawsuit, the states argue that the new rule: - Contradicts statutory language and Congress’s intent for the food-stamp program - Raises healthcare and homelessness costs while lowering economic activity in the states - Amends the law for arbitrary and capricious reasons - Violates federal rulemaking process In addition to Oregon, New York (lead) and Washington D.C. (lead), the participating states include California, Connecticut, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Nevada, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, and Virginia, along with the City of New York.

The lawsuit was filed in United States District Court for the District of Columbia.

In Loving Memory Marjorie (Margie) Vaterlaus May 21, 1928 – Dec. 27, 2019

We wish to announce the passing of our parents, Gordon and Margie Vaterlaus, of Lincoln City, Oregon.

Gordon was born in Douglas, Wyoming, to Leslie and Ruth Vaterlaus. Margie was born in Reseda, California, to Carl and Gladys Cooper.

Gordon served in the Navy Seabees from 1950 to 1954, and received his training at the Naval Construc-

tion Battalion Center in Port Hueneme, Calif., where he met Margie while roller skating one evening. They married on April 28, 1951, after knowing each other only two months. They were together 68 years.

Gordon was a skilled carpenter and Margie an exemplary homemaker who loved looking after her family. In retirement, they enjoyed traveling the United States and spending time in Arizona and Mexico.

They lived in Gleneden Beach, Ore. from 1998 to 2017, when they moved to Lakeview Assisted Living in Lincoln City.

They are survived by their children Karen Leedom, Kathy Bingham, Eric Vaterlaus and Gary Vaterlaus, seven grandchildren, and two great-grandchildren.

Further, no action has been instituted to recover the debt, or any part thereof, now remaining secured by the trust deed, or, if such action has been instituted, such action has been dismissed except as permitted by ORS 86.752(7).

There is a default by grantor or other person owing an obligation, performance of which is secured by the trust deed, or by the successor in interest, with respect to provisions therein which authorize sale in the event of such provision. The default for which foreclosure is made is grantor’s failure to pay when due the following sum: TOTAL REQUIRED TO REINSTATE: $33,953.51 TOTAL REQUIRED TO PAYOFF: $375,415.47 Because of interest, late charges, and other charges that may vary from day-to-day, the amount due on the day you pay may be greater.

It will be necessary for you to contact the Trustee before the time you tender reinstatement or the payoff amount so that you may be advised of the exact amount you will be required to pay.

By reason of the default, the beneficiary has declared all sums owing on the obligation secured by the trust deed immediately due and payable, those sums being the following, to- wit: The installments of principal and interest which became due on 1/1/2019,

and all subsequent installments of principal and interest through the date of this Notice, plus amounts that are due for late charges, delinquent property taxes, insurance premiums, advances made on senior liens, taxes and/or insurance, trustee’s fees, and any attorney fees and court costs arising from or associated with the beneficiaries efforts to protect and preserve its security, all of which must be paid as a condition of reinstatement, including all sums that shall accrue through reinstatement or pay-off.

Tip of the Week: Elk and deer winter migration The Central Oregon Coast is experiencing its seasonal cold weather.

Although the weather slows down our daily commute, we are not nearly as affected as wildlife, specifically elk and deer.

Natural food sources are lean in the upper elevations in the coast range during the winter as snow falls, covering the ground.

This time of year, with snow accumulation in the coast range and freezing temperatures periodically down to sea level, elk and deer may move to even lower elevations to find adequate food.

chances are there is another one behind.

Please take into account that the animals are often stressed due to additional migration in search of food. When spectating please keep a minimum distance of 100 yards from wildlife. If the animals begin to move from your presence, don’t follow them. Oregon Revised Statute 498.006 does protect the chasing or harassing of wildlife.

For more information and tips, visit our web site at www. lincolncountysheriff.net and Like us on Facebook at Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office – Oregon.

Sheriff’s Tips Curtis Landers

These additional movements often mean that the animals are crossing major roads both day and night which creates hazards to motorists. The Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office would like motorists and spectators to be mindful of the animal movements. If you see one deer cross in front of you,

Lincoln City man with three previous DUII convictions caught drinking and driving MAX KIRKENDALL newsguardeditor@countrymedia.net

On Jan. 10, at approximately 1:33 p.m. Oregon State Police (OSP) was dispatched to a report of a maroon minivan swerving all over the roadway on Highway 18 near milepost 12.

The minivan was driven by Corey Allen Quakenbush, 34, of Lincoln City and had received a second driving complaint near the intersection of Slick Rock Creek Road, Otis and Highway 18. According to OSP, the vehicle was seen crossing the centerline,

nearly causing a head on collision.

OSP Officer Brian Eskridge located Quakenbush turning into a driveway at 3047 Salmon River Highway and stopped him for reasonable suspicion of driving under the influence of intoxicants (DUII).

“On contact, the driver appeared to be extremely visibly intoxicated. He did not know where he was and his speech was heavily slurred,” Eskridge said in a report. “I could smell a strong odor of alcoholic beverage coming from his person. His eyes were heavily

Corey Allen Quakenbush bloodshot and glassy. He appeared to be highly confused and lethargic.”

Eskridge identified Quaken-

bush and found his Oregon license to be suspended/revoked due to three previous DUII convictions within the last ten years, resulting in a felony charge. Quakenbush was also found to be on felony probation in Lincoln County for DUII with no alcohol conditions.

“The driver stepped from the vehicle on his own accord and was unsteady on his feet,” Eskridge said. “When asked if he would conduct (Standardized Field Sobriety Test) he refused.”

An empty alcoholic seltzer water was found sitting next to

the driver’s seat upon inspection.

Quakenbush was taken into custody for DUII and Felony Driving While Suspended.

Quakenbush was transported to the Lincoln City Police Department where he was asked to take a breath test, which he refused.

“The driver later provided a breath test, which showed a blood alcohol level of 0.23 percent by weight,” Eskridge said.

He was transported to the Lincoln County Jail where he was lodged on the DUII and Felony Driving While Suspended charges.

Tigers split a pair of games MAX KIRKENDALL newsguardeditor@countrymedia.net

The Taft 7-12 boys and girls basketball teams played a couple of competitive games last week that resulted in a win and a loss for each team.

On Jan. 17, Taft kicked off their league schedule with a home matchup with coastal foe Warrenton. The boys started the night with a high energy, physical first half of basketball that resulted in a 28-20 lead for the visiting Warriors at the break.

In the third quarter, Warrenton began to turn

up their defensive intensity by holding Taft to just six points while scoring 12 to lead 40-26. Tempers flared early in the fourth as both teams went after each other physically and vocally. Despite the tense atmosphere and trailing by double digits, Taft’s Eli DeMello sparked an offensive run for Taft midway through the fourth, but fouls and made free throws kept Warrenton ahead for good, as they would win 55-39.

In the nightcap, the Lady Tigers came out of the gates ready and took a lead in the first quarter. Warrenton

would bounce back however, outscoring Taft in the second quarter to take a 20-15 lead at halftime.

The Warriors found more offense in the third from the hot shooting Kenzie Ramsey, who made several three pointers. But Taft would score 10 points in the third to cut the Warrenton lead to 29-25.

In the fourth, Taft’s Emma Coulter began to find her rhythm. Coulter along with Autumn Ellis knocked down several shots to put the Lady Tigers ahead late in the game. Up three points, Taft locked down the War-

riors on the final possession to earn a 39-36 victory.

Colton The following day (Jan. 18) Taft traveled to Colton for a non-league game. The boys faced a winless Viking and were able to easily take care of business in a 66-58 win. The victory snapped a four game losing skid and brings Taft’s record to 3-8 overall.

The girls faced a much tougher test against the Lady Vikings. Trailing late in the game with the ball, Taft passed the ball around and found an open Autumn Ellis

Senior Autumn Ellis shoots a couple of free throws in Taft’s win over Warrenton on Jan. 17. around the three-point arc who made the shot to give the Tigers a one-point lead.

With just a few ticks on the clock, the Vikings threw up a prayer from half court that

missed and found a Colton player under the basket, who laid it up as time expired. Colton would end up winning 45-44, which puts Taft’s record at 8-6 overall.

Taft boys take first at Tillamook Cheese Relays MAX KIRKENDALL newsguardeditor@countrymedia.net

The Taft 7-12 boys swim team found themselves in a familiar spot this past weekend at the Cheese Relays in Tillamook: atop the podium.

For the past couple of years, the Tiger boys have claimed first place at the relay only event, and this year was no exception. The Jan. 18 event featured six teams, mostly from the 4A classification.

“This meet is nothing but relays and fast paced,” Taft head coach Lissa Parker said. “It is fun but challenging as there may be times when a swimmer does not get much rest and has to turnaround and jump into the next event.”

As a team, the boys tallied 106 points on the day, beating out Newport for first, who accumulated 98.

And with just eight swimmers traveling to Tillamook for the Lady Tigers, Taft scored 66 points, which earned fourth place. The Newport girls were first with 90 points.

“For the girls, we only

For the boys however, they had plenty of swimmers. The Tigers even had enough to compete in two ‘exhibition’ relays, which allowed Taft to gain valuable experience against other top-notch swimmers. Overall, Taft had five relay teams take first place.

The Lady Tigers had four second place marks, starting with the girls 400yard freestyle, swam by Isabelle Serrato and Napy Meyer. The girls 400-yard medley placed second with Serrato, Lesley Lagunes, Bryanna Paget and Sammy Halferty. Then Serrato, Paget, Lagunes and Kealy Boyd placed second in the girls 200-yard backstroke.

Finally, Halferty, Serrato, Meyer and Paget were second in the girls 200-yard breaststroke.
