City council discusses food truck ordinance

Changing Tides

MAX KIRKENDALL newsgaurdeditor@countrymedia.net

The Lincoln City City Council is confident that food trucks or ‘mobile food units’ will be coming to town soon, but as they found out at the Nov. 4 meeting, there are still some kinks that need to be ironed out before that happens.

The City Council held a special meeting Monday afternoon to discuss several business items, such as the proposed food truck ordinances that were put together by the Lincoln City Planning Commission. City Manager Ron Chandler went over several of the rules and restrictions food truck vendors will have to follow in order to operate in the city.

First, Chandler noted the size of these mobile food units cannot be larger than a standard parking space at 9x20 feet. The second point mentioned was where these trucks could be located within the City limits.

“A lot of the discussion we’ve had is where should they be located,” Chandler said. “This ordinance attempts to deal with that.”

The ordinance states that these food See FOOD TRUCKS, Page A11

Oregonians got in that extra hour of sleep this past Sunday, Nov. 3, as the clocks were turned back an hour for Daylight Savings. Sunrise in Lincoln City is now around 7 a.m. while sunset occurs around 5 p.m.

Daylight savings time became a national standard in the 1960s and actually began as an energy conservation effort during World War I, according to the Vox.com Science and Health website. As many of the U.S. States do not observe daylight savings, many Oregonians have wondered if it’s still necessary.

Taft students take a stand against bullying MAX KIRKENDALL newsguardeditor@countrymedia.net

At 9:45 a.m. on Oct. 30, 12 students at the Taft 7-12 school left the building during an AntiBullying Walkout.

Several students who were, “demanding action against bullying,” organized the peaceful protest, made anti-bullying signs

VOL. 92 | NO. 45

and were met outside the building by several parents who showed up to support their children.

“We need to have a change,” said Tiffany Davis, whose daughter participated in the walkout.

“Everyone as a whole in the community needs to step in; students, teachers, parents… and it doesn’t need to be confrontational, everyone can get their point across in a

calm, responsible and respectful way.

“This is a tight knit community, there’s no reason that we can’t make this stop.”

For the students participating in the walkout, they were marked as absent and risked the consequence of detention, which is a standard procedure for all schools, according to Lincoln County School District (LCSD) officials.

“If students choose to walk out in a demonstration, LCSD staff will respect their choice,” LCSD Human Resources Director

Tiana Tucker said. “Staff is prohibited from participating in such walkouts as they cannot make political statements during work time. However, if students protest on campus, we will continue to supervise them and reduce the educational impact of such a protest.”

Tucker added that students See BULLYING, Page A11

Buyer Beware: Coin shop owner warns of local scammers MAX KIRKENDALL newsguardeditor@countrymedia.net

As the old saying goes, ‘there’s no Christmas in coin collecting.’

And local coin shop owner Jeff Spielman is warning collectors not to be fooled by scammers in the Lincoln City area.

Spielman, owner of the JS Coins LLC shop, has seen a variety of counterfeit coins and jewelry come through his doors during his tenure in Lincoln City. Recently however, he’s seen an uptick in counterfeit silver dollars that if they were real, would be worth at least $400.

“This coin is easily worth $400 if it’s real,” Spielman said. “It is 1/3 silver and should weigh 26.63 grams.

These counterfeits don’t have a bit of silver in them.

I can tell by weighing them and looking at them that they’re phony.”

The coin is an 1881 CC silver dollar and according to Spielman, most of the phony coins that have come to his store have been traced back to a local scammer who travels from Gleneden Beach to the north end of Lincoln City selling his coins.

“He sells them for about $20 a piece and people don’t usually bring them in to see if they’re real, so they’ll keep them a few years, try to sell them and find out they are fake,” Spielman said.

Counterfeit coins can also be found in abundance online. Spielman said he often will have customers come to his shop with non-authentic coins that were purchased online. To the average collector it can be sometimes hard to tell which is the real deal and which ones aren’t. Spielman said he gives people a general rule when purchasing

“Some of it’s real and some of it’s not, and if there’s no return policy then that’s a red flag right there,” Spielman said. “You have to be careful because there’s a

lot of crooked guys on sites like eBay.” In addition to the coin scam, Spielman said he has also seen several pieces of jewelry come into the shop that is also non-authentic.

“Recently we’ve been getting a lot of jewelry that’s marked 18 karat and not gold at all, it’s like a brass and people are buying this stuff,” Spielman said. “One See SCAM, Page A11

OSU Extension builds statewide partnerships to mitigate risk of wildfires KYM POKORNY kym.pokorny@oregonstate.edu

In a time of increasing wildfire activity, Oregon State University Extension Service has implemented a new statewide fire program to help facilitate forest and range management plans, as well as create a healthy respect of fire through education and outreach efforts.

The program, led by the OSU Forestry & Natural Resources Extension Program and the College of Forestry, focuses on creating opportunities for landowners by building partnerships.

“You can think of the fire program team as ‘boundary spanners,’” said Carrie Berger, associate program leader for the Forestry & Natural Resources Extension Program. “The team will work to build those

important partnerships that are so crucial to mitigating Oregon’s risk of catastrophic wildfire.”

With funding allocated by the Oregon Legislature, the fire program will hire a director, a state fire specialist, and six regional fire specialists. The specialists will be strategically placed in areas of greatest risk and need as the growing program expands the impact of current efforts and builds on existing partnerships.

“Over the last year, advances in the fire program have assisted landscapescale progress in Lake and Klamath counties, where OSU Extension is working with partners to create consistent land management plans for private landowners and creating an economy of scale to make a positive difference on the

health and restoring wildlife habitat. Other efforts have focused on defensible space treatments across ownership boundaries. Benefits are being realized for eco-

systems, communities and economies.”

While Oregon didn’t see much fire this year, in 2018 Oregon’s cost to fight wildfires hit a record high of $514 million with over 800,000 acres burned.

“If we can prioritize where need is the greatest in the state and come up with a diagnosis of what needs to be done, we can come up with a prescription of management treatments. That’s where we’re headed,” said Daniel Leavell, OSU’s Extension forester who has over 40 years of fire experience.

Fuels in forests, woodlands and ranges have built up in the last 100 years due to fire suppression, Leavell noted. Fires start sooner and burn hotter with drier weather. More homes are located on the edges and middle of forests and wood-

lands that used to be remote areas.

Homes are built in greater numbers and higher densities than ever before.

These boxes of fuel are filled with synthetic materials that also burn hotter.

“We used to have 30 minutes to respond to a house fire,” Leavell said.

“Now with synthetics, laminates and artificial composites throughout homes, we have three. We need to be prepared for that.

“In addition to partnership building, education is essential to prepare landowners, land managers, emergency responders, policy makers, educators and the public to work together to plan for wildfire as the threat continues to climb. We’re trying to shift attitudes to be more proactive than reactive.”

“In Flanders Fields” The red poppy is an internationally recognized symbol of sacrifice worn

by Americans since World War I, to honor those who served and died for our country in all wars. Because the poppy flourished in the soils of France and Belgium that had been enriched with lime from the rubble left by the war, it came to symbol-

ize the bloodshed of those storied battles.

As Lt. Colonel John McCrae MD wrote in his famous poem from the front lines, “In Flanders Fields the poppies blow/between the crosses row on row. That mark our place; and in the sky/The larks, still bravely singing, fly/Scarce heard amid the guns below.”

When the LCCC looked to purchase red poppy pins for the Nov. 11 “Requiem” concert, executive director Niki Price called the American Legion Post 116 in Newport. She inquired about purchasing the small, paper poppy pins, but found that Auxiliary member Wanda Janes had another idea.

“Rather than selling us the flimsy mass market pins, Wanda offered us her lovely crocheted poppies. She donates all the supplies, and makes each one by hand, for a donation to the Children’s Christmas Fund at the American Legion,” Price said. “We were so happy to find a way to commemorate this somber day, while providing funds for another worthy project. These are pins that you can keep, and wear every year.”

Veterans Day, marked each year in the United States, had its start as Armistice Day. The cessation of hostilities in World War I took effect at the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month in 1918. It is a national holiday in France, and continues to be hon-

About Kastalsky’s “Requiem” and Cappella Romana Overcome with urgency, Alexander Kastalsky began composing his haunting “Requiem: Eternal to the Fallen Heroes” during World War I to remember fallen brothers in the Great War. His triumphant tribute was never performed during the Soviet era, but it has made its way to the Pacific Northwest, in the capable hands of the renowned Portland-based a cappella choir, Cappella Romana. The group will be bringing a choir of 24 voices, performing on risers provided by the Central Coast Chorale.

Kastalsky composed his haunting Requiem as a call for reconciliation, redemption, and hope. This richly scored Requiem is led by guest conductor Steven Fox, who was nominated for a Grammy for his recording of the work with the Clarion Choir. By honoring a part of our darkest history, Kastalsky’s “Memory Eternal” helps us together embrace courage and hope for the future.

On Oct. 31, at approximately 2:49 p.m., Newport Police Officers, along with Newport Fire Department personnel were dispatched to a structure fire in the 800 block of SW 7th St. in Newport.

Responding Officers located a residential building fully engulfed in flames upon arrival. Newport

Fire personnel, along with Fire Agencies from throughout the county began fighting the fire after arriving.

During fire fighting efforts, a resident of the building, identified as Josie Waterman, began causing a disturbance and attempting to retrieve personal items from the burning building. Waterman was warned numerous times by fire personnel and police officers

to stay out of the area, as it was dangerous and her actions were interfering with the fire fighters’ ability to conduct their operation.

“Waterman refused to cooperate with the orders and continued to try and get to the residence,” stated the Newport Police Department. “After numerous attempts to get compliance from Waterman, she continued to interfere with fire personnel’s ability to con-

Cracks found under D River Bridge, expect delays THE NEWS GUARD

One of the southbound lanes on Hwy 101 at the D River Bridge in Lincoln City has closed as the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) repairs a bridge support girder under the bridge.

Closing the lane will reduce the weight of traffic on the bridge, according to ODOT, and will provide a safer work area for crews

and travelers.

Crews have been working on the D River Bridge for the past year, rehabilitating the bridge support girders, adding reinforcement to strengthen the bridge and applying a cathodic protection system, which protects the structure from corrosion.

Crews removing damaged concrete from the westernmost girder found cracks in the girder last

week that were larger than they had anticipated.

Structural engineers are now assessing the bridge to determine the appropriate method of repair.

The lane will remain closed until the girder is repaired and traffic can be supported safely. Access for pedestrians, including those with disabilities, is available and identified through or around the work zones.

VOICES OF THE COMMUNITY Anti-Bullying Rally provides eye-opening experience

Max Kirkendall Managing Editor

Mikayla Solberg

Office Manager/Legals

Nicole Clarke

Marketing Consultant

On November 1, an “Anti-Bullying Rally” was held in the Taft 7-12 auditorium for the student body, as well as for parents and community members who were in attendance.

They opened up about their personal experiences while attending school within our school district.

Several students had admitted to being “cutters” and that they do so to deal with the pain they felt inside.

One student had been “free” from cutting since January—which drew a round of applause.

Another stated that it is “easier to NOT let (feelings) out than to keep it in.”

This brings to mind why feelings are not known to others: a selective way to hide feeling different, or a lack of knowing where to turn for help.

Certain bullying experiences in the school environment has shown that feelings are not to be shared in an unsafe peer (or often family) environment.

Other students stated they had

attempted suicide, including one who pondered jumping off a bridge, but was supported and loved by a (named) friend, who was there for them and helped them through.

One young student shared that there had been two suicides in the family and felt that it had not affected the student, but understood the need for support and love: “Don’t just say ‘I’m here for you—BE THERE for someone.”

Another student who had the courage to stand up as being part of the LGBTQ community, was overcome with deep felt emotion, making it difficult to speak openly about the bullying that was constant at school.

The message was heard: supportive students came forward-physically surrounding the student for bravely speaking up.

Being in attendance at this rally provided a true cross-section of the rich diversity that exists in our society and local community. It sadly reflects how this also mirrors the current attitude of non-acceptance and denial for those who do not fall into specific silo categories of humanity.

I didn’t see the footage. My husband told me about it this morning, pleased. He said that the camera caught your surprise, hurt and disappointment when the crowd at the baseball stadium erupted in boos.

My heart sank for you. It is hard to abide the pity I feel for you as you go through these shattering humiliations so publicly. The ones you’ve already suffered. The ones that are yet to come.

Here is what I would wish for you: That you wake up from this exciting but evil nightmare that you are perpetrating and retire to someplace quiet, kind, patient and hidden, away from the distracting billions that have so cobbled you and blocked you from any real self-knowledge, understanding and happiness.

En route to that refuge, please leave behind the red hats, the ugly logos, the baiting, paranoia, incitements to violence, racism, misogyny, lies, tweeting, tantrums, betrayals of our allies, contempt for the Constitution, the infants you’ve had taken away from their mothers, and then lost, and the children you’ve ordered imprisoned at the borders, that stupid wall… Please leave all that ugliness behind. For your sake. For everyone’s sake.

Should a place of gentle refuge be unavailable to you, I’d be okay with you going to jail.

I ask you to please step down now, before we are dragged through even more dishonor, more distress and more heartbreak about what our country, under you, has become.

Activism during a climate emergency With the 2006 release of ‘An Inconvenient Truth,’ the documentary by Al Gore, the world was told loud and clear of the deep trouble we all faced with the degradation of Earth’s environment, as illustrated most poignantly by global warming. However, since then nothing has really changed environmentally except the situation has worsened dramatically.

What this tells me is that the nature of our civil system, so called democracy, is ineffective. Whether it is through the legal system, NGOs, protest marches, voting, making protest art, letters to the editor and elected officials or being a part of an environmental group, nothing has worked to bring about the needed change.

We live in an oligarchy not a democracy.

We are ruled by the rich and not ourselves.

Our so called democracy is rigged in favor of large unethical and immoral corporations that are committing ecocide at a planetary level; this is done through the use of force and money. Money is used to corrupt our representatives and to hide the truth by publishing untrue propaganda in corporate news.

Unfortunately a large segment of our population is addicted to this type of news and eats it up like food. When you watch corporate TV or radio you are not being informed you are being manipulated. Most people are afraid

her side.

Marie was born in Prawda, Manitoba and was one of 12 children.

She is predeceased by her husband Cliff in 1995. Marie and Cliff made their home in Alaska for over 19 years, where she worked as a waitress for the Westward Hotel before moving to McMinnville, Ore. in 1974.

the announcement.

It was not shocking to hear that this attitude is generated within family circles themselves, and permeates into the upbringing of children within that mindset. A student had admitted to being “bi,” to which the parent said, “I will still love you, but I will never look at you the same.” The student broke out in tears sharing this traumatic rejection.

It was evident during the entire “open mic” rally forum that teasing at school (and often at home), is viewed as bullying. It was a moving, heartfelt experience to witness these true shared emotions through the eyes of impressionable and maturing young adult/students.

Among the community members in attendance were parents who had gone through the Lincoln City school system in their youth, and shared their stories of how they had been impacted by bullying in their young adult lives.

It was astounding to learn that this same pattern of bullying has continued for so long, too long.

One adult bluntly stated to the student group, “I know some of you

here in attendance are here to get out of class, but listen—and then DO SOMETHING.” In their closing summary, the student leaders, OUR future leaders, reminded the group that “we can’t change what’s been done in the past, but we can move forward from here.”

I wish every community member could have been present in that auditorium to hear from students, who bravely spoke up and those who spoke of determination to make all people feel loved and supported in their school and in their community.

I only hope that we, as adults, will listen to and continue the leadership from our student voices; that we will help make our schools and community a welcoming and supportive environment - to learn and grow, and to accept our differences - or we won’t survive as a civil society.

Thank you, Taft Students, for speaking out. We adults ARE listening, and support you, and will work to DO SOMETHING to show it.

to standup and speak their truth for fear of jail time or some other type of retaliation, hence the force strategy of controlling behavior.

So what do I do? Other then informing myself properly, which requires lots of reading and researching, I have become an environmental activist; which in all honesty has not brought about an iota of change after five years of organizing, marching, protesting, talking with my elected officials, voting and countless letters to the editor.

Given that fact, I have decided to up my ante and partake in civil disobedience in addition to my other activist actions. If you look at the history of our country, you will find that only one thing has ever worked to bring about needed change, and that was civil disobedience. If it were not for civil disobedience we would still have slavery, women would not have rights, and civil rights would never have come to pass. Unions knew this when they struck and why some of our bravest and most enlightened youth are striking today, because eventual it works.

It is because of the children and the rest of our living Earth that I will no longer be a bystander in the ecocide of our planet. I stand next to the children and will STRIKE too! I have become a member of the Extinction Rebellion and hope you will as well. I am no longer afraid to go to jail with our children’s future and this precious Earth weighing in the balance.

words “trustee” and “beneficiary” include their respective successors in interest, if any.

Pursuant to Oregon Law, this sale will not be deemed final until the Trustee’s deed has been issued by The Mortgage Law Firm, LLC. If any irregularities are discovered within 10 days of the date of this sale, the trustee will rescind the sale, return the buyer’s money and take further action as necessary. If the sale is set aside for any reason, including if the trustee is unable to convey title, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return of the monies paid to the Trustee. This shall be the Purchaser’s sole and exclusive remedy.

The purchaser shall have no further recourse against the Trustor, the Trustee, the Beneficiary, the Beneficiary’s Agent, or the Beneficiary’s Attorney. Also, please be advised that pursuant to the terms stated on the Deed of Trust and Note, the beneficiary is allowed to conduct property inspections while there is a default. This shall serve as notice that the beneficiary shall be conducting property inspections on the referenced property. Without limiting the trustee’s disclaimer of representations or warranties, Oregon law requires the trustee to state in this notice that some residential property sold at a trustee’s sale may have been used in manufacturing methamphetamines, the chemical components of which are known to be toxic.

Prospective purchasers of residential property should be aware of this potential danger before deciding to place a bid for this property at the trustee’s sale. NOTICE TO RESIDENTIAL TENANTS The property in which you are living is in foreclosure. A foreclosure sale is scheduled for 12/04/2019. The date of this sale may be postponed. Unless the lender that is foreclosing on this property is paid before the sale date, the foreclosure will go through and someone new will own this property. After the sale, the new owner is required to provide you with contact information and notice that the sale took place.

The following information applies to you only if you are a bona fide tenant occupying and renting this property as a

residential dwelling under a legitimate rental agreement. The information does not apply to you if you own this property or if you are not a bona fide residential tenant. If the foreclosure sale goes through, the new owner will have the right to require you to move out. Before the new owner can require you to move, the new owner must provide you with written notice that specifies the date by which you must move out. If you do not leave before the move-out date, the new owner can have the sheriff remove you from the property after a court hearing. You will receive notice of the court hearing. PROTECTION FROM EVICTION IF YOU ARE A BONA FIDE TENANT OCCUPYING AND RENTING THIS PROPERTY AS A RESIDENTIAL DWELLING, YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO CONTINUE LIVING IN THIS PROPERTY AFTER THE FORECLOSURE SALE FOR:• 60 DAYS FROM THE DATE YOU ARE GIVEN A WRITTEN TERMINATION NOTICE, IF YOU HAVE A FIXED TERM LEASE; OR • AT LEAST 30 DAYS FROM THE DATE YOU ARE GIVEN A WRITTEN TERMINATION NOTICE, IF YOU HAVE A MONTH-TOMONTH OR WEEK-TOWEEK RENTAL AGREEMENT. If the new owner wants to move in and use this property as a primary residence, the new owner can give you written notice and require you to move out after 30 days, even though you have a fixed term lease with more than 30 days left. You must be provided with at least 30 days’ written notice after the foreclosure sale before you can be required to move. A bona fide tenant is a residential tenant who is not the borrower (property owner) or a child, spouse or parent of the borrower, and whose rental agreement: • Is the result of an arm’s-length transaction; • Requires the payment of rent that is not substantially less than fair market rent for the property, unless the rent is reduced or subsidized due to a federal, state or local subsidy; and • Was entered into prior to the date of the foreclosure sale.

ABOUT YOUR TENANCY BETWEEN NOW AND THE FORECLOSURE SALE:

RENT YOU SHOULD CONTINUE TO PAY RENT TO YOUR LANDLORD UNTIL THE PROPERTY IS SOLD OR UNTIL A COURT TELLS YOU OTHERWISE. IF YOU DO NOT PAY RENT, YOU CAN BE EVICTED. BE SURE TO KEEP PROOF OF ANY PAYMENTS YOU MAKE. SECURITY DEPOSIT You may apply your security deposit and any rent you paid in advance against the current rent you owe your landlord as provided in ORS 90.367. To do this, you must notify your landlord in writing that you want to subtract the amount of your security deposit or prepaid rent from your rent payment. You may do this only for the rent you owe your current landlord. If you do this, you must do so before the foreclosure sale. The business or individual who buys this property at the foreclosure sale is not responsible to you for any deposit or prepaid rent you paid to your landlord. ABOUT YOUR TENANCY AFTER THE FORECLOSURE SALE The new owner that buys this property at the foreclosure sale may be willing to allow you to stay as a tenant instead of requiring you to move out after 30 or 60 days.

After the sale, you should receive a written notice informing you that the sale took place and giving you the new owner’s name and contact information. You should contact the new owner if you would like to stay. If the new owner accepts rent from you, signs a new residential rental agreement with you or does not notify you in writing within 30 days after the date of the foreclosure sale that you must move out, the new owner becomes your new landlord and must maintain the property.

Otherwise: • You do not owe rent; • The new owner is not your landlord and is not responsible for maintaining the property on your behalf; and • You must move out by the date the new owner specifies in a notice to you. The new owner may offer to pay your moving expenses and any other costs or amounts you and the new owner agree on in exchange for your agreement to leave the premises in less than 30 or 60 days. You should speak with a lawyer to fully understand your

rights before making any decisions regarding your tenancy. IT IS UNLAWFUL FOR ANY PERSON TO TRY TO FORCE YOU TO LEAVE YOUR DWELLING UNIT WITHOUT FIRST GIVING YOU WRITTEN NOTICE AND GOING TO COURT TO EVICT YOU. FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR RIGHTS, YOU SHOULD CONSULT A LAWYER. If you believe you need legal assistance, contact the Oregon State Bar and ask for the lawyer referral service. Contact information for the Oregon State Bar is included with this notice. If you do not have enough money to pay a lawyer and are otherwise eligible, you may be able to receive legal assistance for free.

Expert to reveal the future of wave power on the coast The Oregon Central Coast chapters of 350.Org and Citizens’ Climate Lobby are sponsoring a presentation called ‘The Future of Wave Power.’

The talk, which is free of charge, will be held on Monday, Nov. 18, at 7 p.m., in the auditorium of the Hatfield Marine Science Center in Newport. Dr. Bryson Robertson, Director of the Pacific Marine Energy Center (PMEC) at Oregon State University, will give an overview of the current status of marine energy in the U.S. and

globally in the context of a rapidly changing electricity sector.

This talk will focus on how marine energy can play a future role in generating carbon-free electricity, the unique value propositions that marine energy brings and how Oregon is uniquely placed as a leader in the marine energy sector.

Robertson is an associate professor of coastal and ocean engineering and the director of the Pacific Marine Energy Center.

He joined Oregon State University

in 2018. Previously, he managed the Pacific Institute for Marine Energy Discovery and 2060 Project within the Institute for Integrated Energy Systems at the University of Victoria, Canada. Robertson’s research interests are wind, tidal and offshore wind energy systems, coastal engineering, energy systems analyses and oceanography.

360.org is an international environmental organization addressing the climate crisis. Its goal is to end the use of fossil fuels and transition to renewable energy

Dr. Bryson Robertson

by building a global, grassroots movement. By working with local community groups, 350.org aims to hold corporations and world leaders accountable to the realities of science and the principles of social justice.

About Citizens’ Climate Lobby Operating since 2007, the goal of Citizens’ Climate Lobby is to build political support across party lines to put a price on carbon, specifically a revenue-neutral carbon fee and dividend (CF&D) at the national level.

Health Matters

by Samaritan Health Services

Get your partner on board with healthy lifestyle changes changes in a similar way over time. If you’ve gained a few pounds over the years, chances are your spouse has too. Fortunately, the reverse is also true – when one person loses weight, their partner does too.

You’ve finally committed to eating healthier and getting regular exercise, and you are ready to begin.

The only problem – your spouse or partner is not ready to make changes of their own. You can keep moving forward anyway, but that can create a problem at the dinner table.

“If one person in a relationship is ready to make a change it can be difficult for the other and bring up their own insecurities about their health or eating habits,” said Bonnie Buckingham, a registered dietitian with Samaritan Weight Management Institute. “When you announce your new plans, your partner might feel anxious about change or worry about how it might impact the relationship.”

Research published in the International Journal of Obesity reports that the weight of married couples

Start with a discussion “Start by telling your partner that you are doing this for yourself but make sure you are also listening to his or her concerns,” said Buckingham. When you’re excited to implement your healthy lifestyle, it can be easy to immediately overhaul your pantry or tell your partner about all the changes you’re going to implement before they’re fully on board.

Have an uninterrupted conversation about why you want to make changes and the benefits you hope for.

Ask for help and support. Don’t accuse. Try to listen without judgment.

“It can be helpful to use phrases such as ‘I feel ___’ instead of ‘When you do ___’,” said Buckingham.

“Talk about the goals you want to reach, the help you might need and what to expect on a day-to-day basis.”

Listen to your partner’s concerns and anxieties. If you are the primary cook, your partner may worry that favorite foods are going away forever. If you are not the primary cook, your partner may worry about how to prepare healthy foods for you. Discuss how to address these issues in ways that make sense to you both.

Using the word “diet” can trigger negative images of tiny plates of lettuce and constant hunger. Instead, talk about how you want to learn to cook differently.

Consider taking a cooking class for fun. Or when you do cook, try something different or new.

“It is important not to skimp on the discussion with your partner that gets them on board with your new healthy eating plan,” said Buckingham.

Implement change thoughtfully If you are the primary cook, start in small ways that your partner may not even notice, such as adding a vegetable side to each meal or replacing vegetable oil with olive oil.

If you are not in charge of cooking, this might mark an exciting time when you get to learn or help in the process. Taking a healthy cooking class or using a food subscription program like Blue Apron or Hello Fresh can get you started while you learn how to shop and prepare wholesome foods.

Visiting the farmers market together and planning date nights that don’t involve food can also help encourage healthier living as a couple.

It may take some trial and error but as you work toward your healthy living goals, keep communicating.

It will benefit both of you in the long run.

Community update on new hospitals in Lincoln County

Interior renovation moving along in Newport With much of the exterior work finished in time for winter weather, crews are working quickly on the interior of Samaritan Pacific Communities’ former two-story hospital building. Drywallers, painters, tilers, electricians and plumbers are all on-hand preparing the facility to house an all-new laboratory, cardiopulmonary rehabilitation gym, infusion and wound care areas, sleep lab, pharmacy, kitchen and cafeteria,

as well as support services and administrative offices. The building will open to the public by mid-March 2020.

New Lincoln City hospital prepares for staff orientation The new Samaritan North Lincoln Hospital continues to be a whirlwind of construction activity: painting, wiring, casework, flooring, landscaping, street improvements and more.

Soon, hospital staff will be allowed access into

the building to become familiar with their new workspaces and to begin training. Even after the hospital opens to patients in early February, the campus will remain a construction zone while the old hospital is being removed and replaced with a new main parking lot.

Food Trucks From page A1 trucks can be located on private property and on designated city park properties. If they are on park property, they must agree to a parks concession charge at 10 percent gross revenue to the city.

One debate the council had was whether the carts should be able to operate in public right-of-way, which under the current verbiage, they cannot.

“Under these scenarios, these carts will essentially be located on a private lot and cannot face a sidewalk to operate,” Chandler said.

One stipulation that didn’t sit well with several city councilors is the requirement of three paved public parking spaces for each individual vendor. Chandler noted that brick and mortar restaurants require parking spaces, which is why the Planning Commission included the requirement for food trucks.

“Why should we require public parking at all? I’m for eliminating that,” Councilor Riley Hoagland said. “If there is a mobile food unit parking lot, then there should be a parking requirement for the lot owner, not the individual vendor.”

Other restrictions within the ordinance stated that mobile food units must utilize biodegradable packaging, no plastic or Styrofoam based packaging or products would be allowed, as well preventing units to operate a drive thru and requiring them

HEADLIGHT HERALD PHOTO

Food trucks are commonly seen in cities throughout Oregon, such as the Flavors on First food court in Tillamook. to have a dining area.

Chandler also pointed out that no mobile food unit shall occupy an area within 50 feet of a customer entrance of a restaurant unless a mobile food unit is operated from private property owned by a licensee.

“I feel like they should be able to be next

to another business,” Hoagland said. “If you have a great product people are going to come buy it and it’s not my job to protect you.”

Mayor Dick Anderson countered Hoagland saying that brick and mortar restaurants should be considered.

“If we don’t have a level playing field and we are having the brick and mortar businesses pay property taxes doing all that stuff… I would reserve that one till we get down and try to see where the balance is,” Anderson said.

As Chandler read through the ordinance, many of the city councilors voiced some concerns about certain things included in the ordinance and other things that may have been left out. Councilor Diana Hinton noted that there isn’t a restriction on how many food trucks a single business can operate in the city.

“We could have three different locations in Lincoln City that one business owns these three different carts, or are we trying to provide more opportunity for more folks and say just one permit per business?”

Hinton asked.

Chandler said that is a topic the City staff would take into consideration.

Councilor Rick Mark was concerned about the prospect of having food trucks all over the city and asked what could be a method of controlling them.

“One way is to say that it can only be provided in specific locations and the city provides those locations,” Chandler said.

“That’s the best way I know how to control it.”

The City staff will now be revising the ordinance for the City Council’s consideration at a later date.

Bullying From page A1 that leave campus in the event of a walkout will not be supervised by staff and will be reported to Student Resource Officers and local law enforcement.

School bullying is largely considered an epidemic nationwide. Bullying often falls under four broad categories including physical, verbal, relational (efforts to harm the reputation or relationships of the targeted youth) and damage to property. Ac-

cording to stopbullying.gov, between 1 in 4 and 1 in 3 U.S. students say they have been bullied at school.

While LCSD may not condone the nature of the protest made by its students, they are in full support of the cause.

“It is an activity in support of a cause that all LCSD is creating awareness and support around,” LCSD officials stated Thursday. “We especially encourage any student, staff or community member to use tools such as

SafeOregon.”

SafeOregon is a resource LCSD uses to give kids, parents, schools and their communities a way to report safety threats or potential acts of violence.

To report a tip, parents or students can visit lincoln. k12.or.us/resources/family/ safeoregon/.

Hoping to spread more awareness, students planned a second AntiBullying Walkout for Friday, Nov. 1. However, the walkout, turned into more of a

rally as students, parents, faculty and the community gathered together to share personal experiences with bullying and have open conversations about how to prevent it from happening at Taft. To read a personal recount from a community member in attendance, see page A5 in this edition of The News Guard.

Tigers dominate Districts, look ahead to State MAX KIRKENDALL newsguardeditor@countrymedia.net

Starting the year with just six runners, it was tough to imagine that the Taft 7-12 cross country team would be sending eight runners to the State Championships in Eugene at the end of the season.

But the unimaginable became possible this past Thursday, Oct. 31, when the Tiger harriers took home a whole slew of hardware at the 3A/2A/1A Special District 2 Championships in Lebanon.

“Out of the 17 athletes I had competing yesterday, 10 of them had season Per-

sonal Records (PR’s) on the course, ranging anywhere from 10 seconds to two minutes,” head coach Eva Ahumada said. “It was a win for everybody.”

Ahumada said although it was at times a nerve wracking day, the overall feeling for the Tigers was excitement. First up in the girls race, senior Autumn Ellis saved her best race for last, running a PR of 21:06.7 to claim fifth place and qualify for the State Championships. Projected to get 11th based on season times, Ellis ran a 20 second PR to punch her ticket to state.

“She ran smart, picked

Eight Taft runners will compete at state this Saturday after the boys team placed first at Districts and coach Eva Ahumada was named Coach of the year.

After a heartbreaking 21-20 loss to Dayton Oct. 25, the Taft 7-12 suited up one final time this past week when they traveled to Rainier Nov. 1. Facing the reigning state champions, Taft fell behind early and never found themselves in a position to get back in the game, ultimately losing 44-14. The Tigers finished the season 3-6 overall and 1-4 in league play. Pictured is quarterback Fco Ramos.

her position and held it the entire race,” Ahumada said.

“It was thrilling to watch her run. Now she will be the first girl to go to state for Taft in 10 years.”

Fellow senior Brooke Orendorff also had a strong showing placing 38th. Junior Claira Tolan was 65th, sophomore Kaydince Beach was 75th and senior Alani Cabal was 78th. As a team, Taft placed 10th.

For Ellis, she realized a season long goal of qualifying for State. Now she’s looking to make more history for Taft.

“Autumn has her eyes set on the podium for state this year,” Ahumada said. “It’s not impossible, but it will require her to run smart and harder than she has ever ran before. She has a very competitive spirit, and I have yet to see her fail when she sets her mind to something.”

The Taft boys had a big day at Districts as well.

Seniors Matias Vesma and Lucas Hindman finished 5th

and 6th respectively to highlight the Tigers’ efforts. Ahumada also highlighted the work of junior Rafael Perez Del Valle and sophomore Brayan Mateo who each had 10-30 second PR’s to finish in the top 15. Senior Hunter Lundstedt finished in the top 20 and freshman Cooper Fitch finished 27th. As a team, it was a hard earned first place for the Tigers.

“Boys taking the District Title was a huge celebration. I honestly could not be more proud of them,” Ahumada said. “We started out the first two weeks of practice with only six athletes registered - four boys and two girls. This was nowhere in sight at the beginning of the season, so to see them work their way to the top was truly rewarding.”

In addition to the six young men competing at state, Taft will be sending a 7th runner, freshman Eli Jones.

“Eli will be running as our 7th man which is a huge accomplishment as a freshman,” Ahumada said.

“He had a two minute PR on Thursday and was able to swoop in with the winning time. I am excited to see how he will do at State.”

With powerhouse teams Enterprise and Burns competing for the 3A boys title this season, Ahumada said the odds are stacked against them. However, their goal of making the podium is definitely within reach.

“State is more of a mind game than a physically difficult race,” Ahumada said.

“It’s all about placing. If the boys run like they did this week and go for placing rather than focusing on pacing, they will do just fine.

The teams that win are the teams that do not let the pressure of the race get to their head.”

“The boys team wants it, and if they keep their head in it, and focus this week, I am excited to see what they will be able to obtain.”

With all the accolades the Taft runners received at Districts, Ahumada took home a bit of hardware herself. She was named Coach of the Year in her first year as a head coach, which she said was a huge surprise.

“I really wasn’t expecting anything of that nature… It was truly amazing,” Ahumada said. “I was giddy and excited when I found out.

The most rewarding part was looking at my team and seeing them excited for me.

I wouldn’t have been able to do it without them.”

After all the change the Taft cross country team has faced this season, Ahumada said the most rewarding part has been helping athletes reach their potential.

With a passion for running, Ahumada has enjoyed the simple aspects of coaching young runners.

“The abilities varied greatly across the team, but they all gave me their best,” Ahumada said. “I love talking with an athlete after they have ran a race and they know they did their best. The joy and excitement in their voice is contagious when they relive their experience with you. I love being able to be a part of that and share that joy with them.”

The OSAA 3A/2A/1A State Championships are scheduled for Nov. 9 at Lane Community College in Eugene. The girls race starts at 10 a.m. and the boys start at

SPORTS Taft boys win District Championship, host state playoff game MAX KIRKENDALL newsguardeditor@countrymedia.net

An unblemished record is rarely achieved in sports. But so far, the Taft 7-12 boys soccer team has been perfect at 15-0 and they’re only getting started.

After finishing the regular season 14-0, the Tigers put themselves just one game away from a District Title when they played Delphian in the Special District 2 Championship game. After beating the rival Dragons twice already this season, head coach Ryan Ulicni knew they were in for a battle when the two teams met Nov. 2.

“Delphian has always been a solid program,” Ulicni said. “We have always expected and played a great game with them.”

Junior William Calderon got Taft on the board first with a goal in the first half, followed by a goal from senior Edson Fuentes in the second half. With the defense in full force, the Tigers kept the Dragons off the scoreboard all game and after another goal from Calderon, Taft would earn a 3-0 victory.

“The team was very excited to win District Championship,” Ulicni said. “(Delphian) said there could have been no better team this year to play a final game like that. There’s a very good mutual respect between both groups.”

With a perfect record and a district title so far this season, Ulicni said it has been a full team effort from top to bottom. Including the work of assistant coaches Dayton Mays and Daniel Haehl.

“I have an amazing coaching staff helping me,” Ulicni said of Mays and Haehl. “Two Taft High alum who have given these boys their time and attention for the last six months this year alone. I learn as much from them as I hope they do from me.

“There is a chemistry with the team that only comes along once or twice every few years. Finding all of their individual strengths and applying them to the team has been fantastic.”

Taft also took home some individual honors this past Saturday.

Calderon, Fuentes and junior Jose Flores were named First Team All-League. Alex Del Valle, Estib Hernandez and Sam Cortes all cracked the Second Team AllLeague list, while Ivan Cortez, Mauricio Rivas and Ethan Thomas were honorable mentions.

“I could not be more proud of all of these guys,” Ulicni said.

“I know every team has kids that work hard, but it was so nice to see all of their hard work recognized and awarded by others.”

In addition to his first team award, Fuentes was named the Special District 2 Player of the Year, which Ulicni felt could not have

gone to a more deserving player.

“It has been an absolute honor to see him play and have him captain of this team,” Ulicni said.

“He is the standard to which all the kids strive to be. In and out of the classroom or on and off of the field, there has never been a more true leader.”

Ulicni himself also claimed some hardware, being named Coach of the Year.

“I am absolutely honored to be named Coach of the Year,” he said.

“For me it has been a lot of fun coaching these guys for the last two years. Seeing these boys grow, on the field and off, is why I love to coach.”

All the accolades are nice, but Taft’s main goal now is bringing home a state title. The beginning of that quest begins tonight, Nov. 6, against Central Linn in the first round of the State Playoffs. Ulicni said although he has never played the Cobras before, he knows they will be a challenge, as they also won their district this season.

“It will be nice having the home field,” Ulicni said. “There is a sense of calmness you just don’t get when you travel. We have worked on some things this week and we are gonna bring the intensity. This will be a great game to watch.”

Wednesday’s game will start at 5 p.m. on the Taft soccer field.

Senior Sammy Halferty was named the Player of the Year for the Special District 2 this season.

With one win needed to reach the state playoffs, the Taft 7-12 girls soccer team fell just short against Dayton in the District Playoffs.

The Lady Tigers met the Dayton Pirates at Salem Academy Nov. 2 in the second and final game of the Special District 2 Playoffs.

After getting numerous

attempts at goals in the first half, Taft was unable to convert after double-digit shots on goal. Dayton took one shot all half and made it to give them a 1-0 advantage at halftime.

“Impressive play all around,” head coach Joey Arce-Torres said of the game. “Second half saw similar results. We were unable to get that equal-

izer and then Dayton got a second goal that sealed the deal.”

Dayton took a 2-0 victory and earned a spot in the State Tournament, while Taft placed fourth in the league. Despite falling short of their goal, Taft did collect several post season awards, including the team Sportsmanship Award for the second consecutive season.

In her final year, senior Sammy Halferty was named Player of the Year in the Special District 2 to go along with her First Team All-League honor. Other awards included a Second Team All-League award for Avery Nightingale, as well as Honorable Mentions for Chloe Peterson, Delayna O’Daniels and Corey Van Damme.
