FACT? or Fiction?

Local lecture brings Sea Monster legend to life

BY BREE LAUGHLIN The World

A mythic Pacific Northwest sea serpent may actually exist as an elusive rare ocean species – and it has been spotted many times off the Oregon Coast.

At least that’s what Cam Parry told his captive audience during a lecture at the Oregon Institute

of Marine Biology in Charleston on May 5.

“I want you to sit back, relax and get ready to enter another world. It’s the world of the unknown,” Parry told his audience before belting into song.

“Welcome wonderful, curious explorers. It doesn’t get better than that.”

Parry said the event was a kind of a throwback to the days before televiPhotos by Bree Laughlin

sion and even before radio, when everyone in a community would gather and listen together to stories passed down through generations.

“Every time we think about peering into the undersea world, it ignites our imaginations. It’s a beautiful world completely separate from ours here on land, and it’s estimated that 91 percent of undersea inhabitants are yet to be discovered,” he said.

Sure, a lot of that might be microscopic ocean life – but not all of it.

“What about the discoveries yet to come?” Parry asked.

“It’s all about hope for the future,” he told his audience at the Oregon Institute of Biology – many of whom were students. “That’s why you are doing what you are doing. That is why you are studying to become marine biologists.”

Parry was introduced to the audience by Dr. Craig Young, a professor and director at Oregon Institute of Marine Biology. Professor Young described Parry as “a quintessential member of the community.”

May 4 has become an unofficial holiday for Star Wars fans across the globe. Participants in the local celebration won fun prizes and free Star Wars-

themed books. The winning team of the Star Wars trivia game got a perfect score.

Moms enjoy a family outing in downtown North Bend

The World

Mom’s strolled down the sidewalks in downtown North Bend with their families - many with roses and shopping bags in hand.

The Mother’s Day on Main Street event on Saturday, May 6, was a pre-party for the Mother’s Day holiday designed for the whole family. More than twenty downtown businesses participated in the event offering in-store specials

and sign-ups to win free gift baskets throughout the day.

“The day-to-day hustle Mom’s endure is undeniable, and we want to recognize their hard work with a bit of fun and gratitude,” said North Bend Main Street representatives.

Everyone could enter to win the giveaway baskets by signing up at each of the participating North Bend downtown businesses. The baskets were filled with treats

and gift cards donated by local businesses and were valued at more than $500 each.

Some business owners held their own contests and raffles along with the gift basket raffle. Julie Reed, the owner/floral designer of Ocean Breeze Flowers, had a giveaway for a mother’s day bouquet – and was handing out brightly

colored roses to mothers during the event.

North Bend Public Library and The Liberty Theatre had interactive specials for moms and children. The North Bend Public Library had paper flower crafting

and the spin to win game featuring a treat for children and free gift for them to give to their moms. The Liberty Theatre gave free chair massages for moms for a few hours during the event.

The Marshfield High School equestrian team dominated the regular season, with three dominant meets. Every member of the team qualified for the state championships held last week in Redmond.

Marshfield equestrian team dominates throughout season The Marshfield High School Equestrian team sent a message early on that they are the team to beat! The team started their season in February and ended their first meet with individual placings totaling 438 points and total team points equaling 620.

The second meet took place in March and the momentum continued with individual placings equaling 465 points and total team points equaling 677. Meet three just took place in April and all 13 athletes qualified for state either by medal placings, top 3, top 10%, or alternates.

Total individual point placings 439 and total team points equaling 637; combined overall points of individual placings equaling 1,342 and team points of 1,924 and the number one seat in the district of 20 high schools.

We would like to thank all our sponsors who have supported us along the way, without you this team would not achieve the success that it has. Marshfield’s commitment to excellence allowed them to be the top placement throughout the district

meets. We will have nine athletes who will represent Marshfield High School at the state meet in multiple events.

MHS finished with six Gold Medals, three Silver Medals and three Bronze Medals overall, what an amazing accomplishment for the athletes.”

Come Wednesday, May 10, through Sunday, May 14, the following Marshfield athletes will be competing in specific events at the Oregon High School Equestrian Teams State Meet at the Deschutes County Fair Grounds in Redmond. The athletes are hoping to become state champions in their events and earn a chance to continue in competition against Washington High School Equestrian Teams at Regionals.

Special treat at Madison School

Contributed photos

Students in Hailey Starks’ second-grade class at Madison School received a special treat last week when they got to see ducklings hatch. The duck eggs have been incubating in the class for weeks before they hatched this week. Starks said seeing the baby ducks emerge was a great learning experience for her students.

A4 | Sea Monster Continues from page 1

“He is an avid hunter and fisherman. He is a very serious conservationist and made a career out of fighting for restoration and preserving habitat,” Young said.

“He was also recently named a NOAA environmental hero, which a very impressive title.”

Parry is a former Coos County commissioner, and his popular radio show and podcast, “Hooked on Oregon” and “Cam Parry’s Out There” have received many awards.

“He is a very famous member of our little community.

Moreover, he has had a long-standing interest in a beast called the Cadburosaurus,” Young said.

Parry said his discovery of the prehistoric Sabre Tooth Salmon (which could reach 60-feet-long and up to 450 pounds) sparked his imagination into what other crea-

tures might be found under the water.

Ever since ancient times, many individuals have reported sightings of a Loch Ness-type sea monster swimming in the frigid ocean waters of the Pacific Northwest.

Parry has had a long interest in these reports and assembled evidence for the existence of this sea creature.

“Sea serpents – their legend and their lore – have been with us since the dawn of exploration,” Parry said.

Sightings of the Cadburosaurus span from ancient to recent times.

Parry argues the Cadburosaurus – or Caddy for short – could potentially be the last living sea serpent off of the Pacific Coast.

Indigenous drawings from Alaska to San Francisco depict similar looking sea creatures with a long body and small head.

“How would that happen unless they were all

seeing the same thing up and down the Pacific Coast?”

The Cadburosaurus, has been described as having a long, undulating body and serrated tail, with large eyes and a horse-shaped head.

“Caddy is a creature that has been seen, photographed and heard, but their existence has never been proven. It’s like a Republican in San Francisco,” Parry joked. “But with Caddy we have a photo record, we have film, and at one time – even an intact carcass.”

Caddy has been described as being curious and playful. The only time one was ever reported as coming after a boat was when somebody was shooting at it or attempting to take a juvenile.

Parry said most sightings of Caddy were made by people “who had nothing to gain, but everything to lose.”

The people who report-

ed seeing Caddy had good reputations and high standings in the community. He argued these were not “bottom of the whiskey barrel” sightings.

A very recent sighting was made just a few years ago by the crew of a local commercial salmon trawler. This crew saw a Cadburosaurus off of Whiskey Run Beach.

It came right off the bow of a ship – raised its’ head, looked at the crew – and literally blinked at them before going underwater.

“Of course they all tried to reach for their cameras, but it never came back up for its’ close up,” Parry said.

Through the years there have been many Cadburosaurus sightings, Parry said. Before he wrapped up, Parry introduced an audience member, whom he said was a bit reluctant to speak, but agreed to share his story for the first time in public.

The audience member came up and told a story about how he saw a Cadburosaurus with his sister and friend when they were teenagers in 1962 off of the Oregon Coast near Yachats. The man said it first appeared to be a submarine but then a head poked up and looked at them before taking off into the deep ocean – faster than anything he had ever seen.

After that, a woman in the audience shared that her father had encountered a Cadburosaurus while he was fishing and refused to ever go back out to that spot.

It had many wondering if there might

Weekender

be something more to Caddy? While it may be farfetched, Parry noted that life is full of possibilities.

“For those of us who are so inclined after tonight to be a little bit convinced that there might be a Cadburosaurus – that it might be possible – I want you to be comforted that it is protected by the State of Oregon.”

Laws distinctively protect it, because any animal that is not distinctively classified by the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife cannot be hunted, captured or transported.

“How wonderful that it is protected,” Parry said.

The Chamber Minute: Many dreams realized A dream changing movie, for many of my generation, was Smokey and the Bandit.

It introduced us to the Pontiac Trans Am. For over 25 years following that movie, I collected articles, pictures and books on the TA. I watched its styles and horsepower change.

Finally, I found a late model in perfect shape, low miles and a great price. To everyone’s surprise, I brought it.

At long last, a dream realized.

Over the years, your Chamber has been the

source of many dreams realized. Leadership Coos was formed to educate community members to the many facets of our area.

In its nine months, participants learn facts, find services and discover opportunities they never knew existed in our area. It also had a goal to help produce the next set of community leaders.

Today you find its graduates leading local business, government and agencies. The Ambassadors are the Red-coated welcoming

team that greets dignitaries, cuts ribbons at grand openings and hosts Business after Hours each month. In the past 18 months they have focused on expanding the success, outreach and impact of those events. They are building their team membership to be even more effective in the community. Also, they are stepping into an important role of membership outreach. Which is critical to the Chamber’s future. Marketing has set out on a new

mission this year. They developed annual Sponsorship Tiers, allowing businesses to invest in many of the Chamber programs and activities at one time during their budget process. Focused on communication, marketing now produces a weekly update for all members, a consistent monthly newsletter and timely Facebook postings.

They are working on a new website for greater information access.

Also, registering and paying online for all

functions is in process of being finalized. Truly another step into the 21st century.

So, who will be the next “Marketing” or “Ambassadors” or “Leadership Coos”, the new dream realized, of this Chamber year? Our community has many needs and opportunities that you, as a chamber member together with likeminded folks, can make happen. Come on down and we will find the Team for you.

Judith Carol Reichert June 5, 1947 – October 18, 2022

A memorial service to celebrate the life of Judy Reichert, 75, of North Bend, will be held at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday, June 3, 2023 at Faith Lutheran Church, 2741 Sherman Avenue in North Bend with Pastor Katherine Brick presiding.

Judy was born June 5, 1947, in Berwyn, Illinois to Dr. John and Selma (Thompson) Reichert. She passed away peacefully on October 18, 2022 at her home in North Bend.

Obituaries Friday, May 19, 2023

Judy grew up in La Grange, Illinois, and graduated from Lyons Township High School, class of 1965. She furthered her education graduating from Parsons College in Fairfield, Iowa, with a Bachelor’s Degree in Education; then a Master’s Degree in English from Indiana University. Judy began her teaching career in Lansing, Illinois, before moving to North Bend to be near family.

She taught English at Coquille Valley Middle

School before moving to North Bend Junior High where she taught English and Honors English. She finished her 38-year career at North Bend High School.

Judy was active in her church, the Humane Society, and book club, and she was a fervent lover of her pet Shelties.

She loved flowers, gardening, reading, lunch with her girlfriends, her birthday, and playing with her beloved Missy.

She was a beloved daughter, sister, and

aunt with strong loyalty to her family and friends. Known for her keen sense of humor and quick wit, she loved nothing more than to have a good, loud laugh. She was a generous, thoughtful, compassionate, and loving spirit.

Judy is survived by her sister, Ruth Thoren and her husband, Dr. Ted Thoren of Saddlebrooke, AZ; nephew, Tim Thoren and his husband, Jason Rice of Springfield; nephew,

Jennie Doyle nieces and nephews whom she treasured.

Jennie was preceded in death by her grandmother, Myrtle Parsons Love; and step-mother, Marie Olson, who helped to raise her and provided her with so much love and support after she lost her mother as an infant.

Jennie was a Lebanon School bus driver for 20 years, and often shared stories of her work day and the antics “her kids” got up to. Jennie loved volunteering in her community. She was an active room mother and PTA President at Cascades Elementary School.

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). Both the beneficiary and the trustee have elected to sell the said real property to satisfy the obligations secured by said trust deed and notice has been recorded pursuant to Section 86.752(3) of Oregon Revised Statutes. 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: $30,696.92 TOTAL REQUIRED TO PAYOFF: $91,893.85 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.

“The way they sing together as a team is pretty incredible. And they were smiling and having fun – it wasn’t something they had to do. It’s something they wanted to do,” Kaufman said.

The choir leader said the songs they sing are technically difficult and they sing in 3-part harmonies. The Salvation Army is a Christian organization. One of the songs they sing is about courage and strength of bible characters.

During their trip to Portland, the girls’ choir members got to pick anything they wanted from McDonalds. Then they sang at the competition. Later they stayed

the night at a Salvation Army camp in Boring, Oregon.

“They said it was the best day of their lives,” Kaufman said.

The singers are looking forward to an even bigger opportunity to travel to Los Angeles on June 9 to 12.

“We get to take our eleven girls. The Salvation Army pays for our flight and the hotel.

Then we are going to begin fundraising so we can take the kids to Disney Land,” Kaufman said.

Very few choir members have ever flown on an airplane – or been to Disneyland.

“It’s a really big deal for these young girls. It’s

New youth choir takes home first trophy

The World

A newly-formed youth choir won a first-place trophy during their first-ever competition in Portland.

Now, the girls will get to travel to Los Angeles to compete against other Salvation Army singing companies from as far away as Alaska and Hawaii.

The experience has already been life-changing for the youth, said Salvation Army Captain Erin Kaufman, who has been leading the girls in the choir.

The group of young singers won the firstplace trophy the first time they ever participated in the regional competition in Portland during the last weekend in April.

“We have a great big trophy that is just wonderful,” Kaufman said.

Kaufman said she and the other Salvation Army leaders told the youth they could do whatever they put their minds to before the competition in Portland.

After winning their first ever competition in Portland, young singers in the local Salvation Army after-school program will get to travel to Los Angeles in June life changing. It’s memory making.”

The Salvation Army captain said that is what her organization is about.

The Salvation Army offers a variety of programs for families that are free-of charge, including summer camps, music and sports lessons, martial arts and

more. It gives children the opportunity to participate in activities that families otherwise wouldn’t have the resources to pay for.

“This levels the playing field for kids and helps them realize there is more out there,” she said.

Kaufman said she’s excited for the future of the girls’ choir. She also plans to encourage local youth to compete in other areas such as brass instrument playing, dancing and drama programs that are also offered through the Salvation Army.

Supporting Our Veterans At Home This Memorial Day

By Veronica Raussin Guest column

Memorial Day is much more than a chance to kick off the summer months. At its heart is a day to honor the men and women who have died in U.S. military service.

Unfortunately, millions of service members who made it home to their families struggle with substance or mental health disorders or suicidal ideation. California is home to over 1.8 million veterans. The state also has the largest number of homeless veterans in the country.

According to the National Survey on Drug Use and Health, 3.8 million veterans have a substance use disorder or mental illness.

Roughly 12% of these veterans had serious thoughts of suicide.

It is a harsh reality for many veterans. Substance use disorders in veteran populations are linked to homelessness and suicide.

“It’s vital to recognize this problem and not overlook the countless veterans struggling in silence. There are supports available, but it often goes overlooked,” said Michael Leach of Addicted.org.

Generally, there are many related factors and causes, such as trauma or stress due to service. Many veterans struggle with re-integrating into civilian life.

Mental health disorders and injury or chronic pain can lead to addiction.

It’s also common for veterans to experience financial hardship, struggle to find employment or have difficulty accessing benefits.

Physical, emotional, and mental health concerns are significant. Untreated trauma, for example, directly impacts all areas of life. This can also lead to using drugs or alcohol as an unhealthy coping method.

Additionally, many veterans face barriers when accessing treatment. This can include cost and insurance gaps. Communities may face inadequate funding, while veterans have limited access to treatment in rural areas.

The stigma surrounding addiction and mental health is also significant and has not necessarily gone away.

Fortunately, there are resources and ways that families and communities can help; consider the following options: • CalVet Veteran Services provides extensive resources for veterans.

• Helpful hotlines include the Veterans Crisis Line, 1-800-273-8255, and the Lifeline for Vets, 1-888-777-4443.

• SAMHSA has a facility treatment locator for substance use and mental health treatment resources with specific options for veterans.

• The Department of Veterans Affairs has a VA-Facility locator and services for homeless veterans.

• Telehealth has become common practice, involving attending treatment through webbased video calls.

Families can explore different financial options, such as combining VA benefits with other health insurance, such as Medicare, Medicaid, or private health insurance, to reduce costs.

Families and communities also play a signif-

Veronica Raussin icant role in supporting veterans. Families should speak openly and honestly with their loved ones about their addiction and express concern. Help them find treatment. Be patient and show compassion for what they are going through. Remember, these problems are treatable.

Communities advocate for reducing the number of opioid and benzodiazepine prescriptions given to vets and begin exploring alternative forms of treatment and therapy.

Memorial Day commemorates all men and women who have died in U.S. military service.

We must not also forget those who have died because of substance use or suicide after returning home and the millions more who struggle with substance use disorders, mental health issues, or suicide ideation.

Veronica Raussin is a Community Outreach Coordinator for Addicted.org, passionate about spreading awareness of the risks and dangers of alcohol & drug use.

HOLY COW! HISTORY: Henry's Crystal Clear Idea

By J. Mark Powell

InsideSources.com

Henry had a sharp eye. He paid close attention to what people around him were doing– and what they weren't.

One observation in the 19th century forever changed how Americans buy food products, revolutionizing the food industry and making him rich to boot.

You still use the change he introduced every time you shop at the grocery store.

And it all started with horseradish. Really.

Henry was no ordinary boy growing up in the mid-1800s with his German immigrant parents near Pittsburgh.

By age 14, he was assistant manager at his father’s brickyard.

When his mother grew too many vegetables in the family garden one summer, Henry quickly sold them. His parents realized their son was a budding businessman.

In 1869, he went into business with a friend selling horseradish, a condiment wildly popular among the area’s German communities.

Expanding to include celery sauce, pickles, and vinegar, they called it the Anchor Pickle and Vinegar Works.

Things were going well until the Panic of 1873 hit. A financial panic was much like a depression, and this one was particularly severe.

The company went broke.

However, Henry was still young and optimistic. The next year, he started yet another business with his brother and their cousin. And this time, he sold something else: tomato ketchup.

If you think ketchup was a 20th-century creation to accompany french fries, you’re mistaken. Americans have been pouring it on food since Colonial times.

The new business took off. The three relatives weren’t rolling in dough, but they were making a decent living.

Henry insisted they use only the freshest vegetables and prepare them in extremely clean

Guest Column

and sanitary conditions to produce the best products.

Still, that wasn’t good enough. Henry was one of those imaginative types who always wonder, “How can we make it better? Produce it faster? Make it more affordable?”

One day he noticed something. Customers hesitated to buy ketchup because they didn’t know what they were getting. This was the time before government food inspections. The label said “ketchup,” and that was all you knew.

Early food products spoiled quickly and contained nasty additives like coal tar and sodium benzoate.

Maybe the contents had gone bad; maybe they were still fresh. How did you know? Because you couldn’t see what was inside. Food was sold in brown, blue, and green glass bottles. Folks were reluctant to spend hardearned pennies on a pig in a poke.

The problem could be overcome by using clear glass, so consumers could see exactly what they were getting. But there was a problem.

Glass had to go through additional refining steps to make it clear, and that made it more expensive. So food manufacturers stuck with colored bottles to keep costs down.

But not Henry. He believed shoppers would be willing to part with an additional penny in exchange for knowing with certainty the content was fresh. So, he switched all his products to clear glass and held his breath.

The gamble worked.

The change was hugely successful and put the company on the map. In 1888 Henry bought out his partners and renamed it the H. J. Heinz Company, which it’s still called today.

Not only that, the entire food industry was forced to switch to clear glass bottles and jars to stay competitive.

Henry Heinz was a marketing genius. The native of Pennsylvania

J. Mark Powell (the Keystone State) fashioned his logo in the shape of a keystone.

He devised the winning slogan “57 Varieties.”

When he introduced it in 1896, Heinz was selling more than 60 products.

But consumers responded to 57 for some reason. He told people he got it by combining 5, his lucky number, with his wife’s lucky number of 7. Privately, he said he used 7 because of its “psychological influence.” Whatever the reason, it worked.

Heinz was an innovator as well. He provided uniforms to his employees (many of them women) and insisted they be kept clean. He demanded safe working conditions in his factories and paid good wages. He even personally lobbied Congress for federal laws to make food safe for all Americans, culminating in the Pure Food and Drug Act’s passage in 1906.

Unlike other Robber Baron millionaires, Henry was a beloved figure when he died at age 74 in 1919.

Today, Heinz produces a staggering 650 million bottles of ketchup every year. And because of Henry Heinz’s crystal clear idea, you know exactly what you’re getting.

Opinion: The Energizer Bunny Goes to Court

By Aron Solomon

InsideSources.com

Energizer Holdings and Walmart are being sued in three proposed class actions for conspiring to raise the prices of disposable batteries.

As Reuters reported, the lawsuits, filed in San Francisco in the U.S. District Court, accuse the companies of violating federal and state antitrust laws and various state consumer protection laws. The plaintiffs seek unspecified compensatory and triple damages and injunctions to block Energizer from tying battery sales to pricing and require Energizer and Walmart to “dissipate” the effects of their conduct.

According to the plaintiffs, Energizer’s

share of the U.S. disposable battery market has risen to more than 50 percent from 40 percent in 2018. Energizer has acknowledged adjusting its pricing policies at Walmart’s request.

The global disposable battery market is massive. In 2020, it was valued at $9.97 billion and is projected to reach $14.19 billion by 2028.

The use of disposable batteries has dramatically risen in recent years due to the increased demand for small portable electronics, power tools and other items, and the increase in “smart” products such as small and large appliances and automobiles.

The convenience of disposable batteries has led to their widespread use, but this has

come at a cost to the environment. Batteries contain metals such as mercury, lead, cadmium, nickel and silver, which can threaten human health or the environment when improperly managed.

Despite the convenience of disposable batteries, rechargeable batteries are a more sustainable option.

Manufacturers take a conservative approach and specify the life of Li-ion in most consumer products as being between 300 and 500 discharge/charge cycles.

Rechargeable batteries may be removable or permanently attached to the device, and they can be recharged many times before needing replacement. This reduces the amount of waste generated by

batteries and is better for the environment in the long run.

Yet we, as a society, are hooked on disposable batteries. Ask yourself if you would be anywhere near as upset to learn that two mega-companies conspired to fix the price of rechargeable batteries.

The vast majority of us wouldn’t even notice.

Charlie Cartwright, a personal-injury lawyer in Florida, says in these cases the losers are always the consumer: “Absent these class-action lawsuits, consumers have no power to fight the collusion of two massive corporations.

Given how important batteries are to so many people, if the allegations of Energizer and Walmart conspiring to raise prices are true, this

hurts consumers and damages trust in these brands.”

Where this goes from here is for the parties and the court to identify all individuals who may be included in the “class” in each of these three lawsuits.

The plaintiffs must petition the court and ask that the case be certified as a class action. The court will then determine whether to certify the action as a class action, define the class and the class claims, issues or defenses, and appoint class counsel. Once the class is certified, the court may award reasonable attorney’s fees and costs authorized by law or by the parties’ agreement.

Expect Energizer and Walmart to fight these suits vigorously.

PHOTO COURTESY OF MARY SCHAMEHORN

By MARY SCHAMEHORN

The first picture I am sharing was taken in January of 1982 of the Army Corps of Engineers vessel Sandwick, having just left the Bandon harbor, crossing under the Bullards Bridge and heading to a big slide at Riverton. The vessel was "being used to help clear the blockage of the Coquille River. The blockage, which has caused severe flooding to local ranchers, was created when heavy rains in December caused a portion of a hillside -- about 800 feet long and 150 feet wide -- to slide into the river.

Highway 42 has been closed since the slide

As I See It: Planning for Oldtown occurred, as a portion of the road surface is also destroyed. Corps officials expect to have the blockage removed in about 10 days," according to information in the Western World caption.

"Oldtown Plans to be Discussed" is the headline in the Jan. 6, 1982, Western World, concerning a meeting to be held that night at City Hall where Eugene architect Jeff Wilson (second photo) would be "discussing the type of architecture for Old Town Bandon."

"Wilson is doing one part of the planning necessary to enable the City of Bandon to proceed

"2. Improving the water system to current standards.

"3. Placing or having placed all overhead utilities underground.

"4. Improving the underground storm drainage system.

"5. Repairing all streets in the area.

"6. Paving parking lots.

The Army Corps of Engineers vessel, the Sandwick, was used to clean the Bandon Harbor after heavy storms blocked the Coquille River. "'The project's purpose is to upgrade the Old Town area and increase its tourist potential. In this way and working in concert with the Port of Bandon boat basin expansion we hope to be able to increase employment and tourism in Bandon,' added McMakin."

At the end of a number of meetings, to get public input into the planning of Old Town, the end result was the 120-page plan "A Master Plan for Historic Bandon." I will discuss the recommendations, many of which have already been carried out, in subsequent weeks.

Business people pictured at the meeting, in the second picture, front, left were Wolf Daniel Braun, Joanne Drapkin, Joan Gradt, Beverly Harrington and Councilwoman Diane Chappell. Behind them were Dick and Sally Morris, long-time owners of Kronenberg & Waldrop Insurance.

The third picture, taken in October of 1983, shows Frank Tucker carving the first of the Old Town arches.

I was on the city council in those days, and want to share a bit of information as to how we chose the slogan for the backside of the arch. Councilwoman Chappell was head of a committee to come up with the wording for the arches, and they settled on "Thank You For Visiting Bandon."

I was already acutely aware of the feeling of "them versus us" when it came to Old Town and the merchants along the highway, and I felt like we were telling people that was all there was to see. I then suggested the wording "We Hope You Are Enjoying Bandon," and after 40 years, that is still the wording on the arches today, as the council agreed with me.

------------------------I was so sorry to hear that Edith Hunt Winters,

one of Bandon's favorite senior citizens, died Thursday at the age of 99. Edith, who with her twin sister Edna Hunt Wilson Paulsen, graduated from Bandon High School in 1941, would have celebrated her 100th birthday in October. They also had an older sister Eva (who was married to Ace Franklin) and at least one brother, Lloyd Hunt.

Edith often shared her story of being a Bandon Fire survivor during our annual observance of that fateful day.

Edith and her late husband, Roger Winters, had four children, Steve, Barry, Dan and Debbie, with Steve and Debbie predeceasing their mother. She also had an extended family of grandchildren and great-grandchildren.

As I looked through the Class of 1941, I discovered that Kenneth Stevens of Powers had also been in that class.

He will celebrate his 101st birthday in May. Others in the class, who lived long healthy lived, were my uncle, Lou Felsheim, former long-time mayor Don Goddard, as well as Mary McNeil Wilson, sister of Hugh McNeil.

------------------------I learned this week that Clay Davis of Coquille, husband of long-time city of Bandon planner Charli Davis, died suddenly last week while the couple were in Roseburg. Clay was 76. He was a long-time insurance agent in Coquille and had served many years on the board of the Coquille Valley Hospital. He is the second well-known Coquille businessman to die in recent weeks, with the first being electrician Gerald Marca.

------------------------People may have seen several German Shepherd dogs at work on the gravel lot along First Street, as well as on the hillside behind the lot last Thursday.

The cadaver dogs had been hired to determine

if there were remains of bodies on the property.

One archaeologist told me that no matter how long the remains had been buried there, these dogs could detect a scent if something was there. Earlier ground penetrating radar had reportedly been utilized on the property, which is the future home of a Marriott hotel.

One observer believed that the dog had found something and he asked one of the dog handlers, but was told that the information would be provided (I am assuming to whoever hired them) once they were finished.

------------------------I learned this week that La Fiesta Mexican restaurant on the corner of Delaware and First Street, across from the boat basin, had been broken into one night recently. Taken were pots, pans, and plates, as well as meat. The burglar or burglars also threw chips around the restaurant, and basically trashed it. La Fiesta recently re-opened for the season, and the owner, Martine, told a friend of mind that this is not the first time they have been burglarized over the years.

------------------------The calendar for Greater Bandon Association's Alive After Five events has been released, and will include Fridays May 26, June 16, July 21, Aug. 18, Sept. 22, Oct. 20, Tuesday July 4, and two Saturday Nog Walks, on Nov. 25 and Dec. 9. The wine walks are from 5 to 7 p.m. and glasses can be purchased for $10 at the picnic shelter on the Boardwalk.

The Bandon Chamber has announced a new event, First Saturday Art Walks, to be held June 3, July 1, Aug. 5 and Sept. 2. The Art Walk will be held from 4:30 to 7 p.m.

As I See It Continued from page 13

In keeping with a series of Town Hall meetings being held by the Coos County Board of Commissioners, the meeting for Bandon will be held Thursday, May 25, at 6 p.m. at the Barn/Community Center.

People are urged to attend and ask pertinent questions of the commissioners, who include Rod Taylor, John Sweet and Bob Main.

I am sorry that I won't be able to attend as that is the same night as the hospital board meeting, the planning commission meeting and probably the Port commission meeting.

------------------------I recently learned that members of 100 Strong Bandon had contributed $3,175 to help resurface the pickleball court in City Park. Bandon

Pickleball started in September of 2021 with four participants; today over 60 locals and visitors participate as contributing players and an additional 30-plus others play.

BPB is a non-profit group, associated with the Greater Bandon Association.

------------------------If you would like to know more about Bandon's history, you are invited to a program at the Bandon History Museum, 101 and Fillmore, Saturday, May 20, at 1 p.m.

"The freewheeling program will feature Bandon Mayor Mary Schamehorn and archaeologist Reg Pullen. Jim Proehl, the radio voice of 'A little history from the museum in Bandon' will moderate. The audience will be invited to ask local history questions," said a

spokesman. Admission to the program and to the museum May 20 will be free all-day, courtesy of Chas. Waldrop Real Estate. Waldrop, Schamehorn and Pullen are all Bandon natives.

------------------------I stopped in at the grand opening of the

new Bandon Farmers and Artisan Market, operated by Lori and Barry Osborne at the Warehouse at Farm and Sea, and was amazed at the transformation that has taken place inside that building. Not only are the spaces all new for the vendors, who will

be there on Fridays and Saturdays, but the new Warehouse Coffee Cafe will be open seven days a week, there is a great assortment of flowers from the Boutique Checkerberry's Flower Shop and a display from Washed Ashore, which has recently vacated

the building on Chicago owned by Kirk and Elizabeth Day. Now if we can just get the Port to pave the pot-hole filled gravel parking lot in front of the building, that will greatly enhance the parking situation in that end of town.

Oregon’s Adventure Coast:

Coos Bay, North Bend, Charleston Moves Travel Forward This National Travel and Tourism Week The latest report provided by Travel Oregon’s third-party research firm, Dean Runyan & Associates, shows that Coos County has not only seen Visitor Spending in the area return to pre-pandemic levels, but exceed those levels.

For the calendar year 2022, this latest data shows for Coos County, the travel industry generated $295.9 million in visitor spending in our communities, which supported more than 3,600 jobs for Coos County residents. This Visitor Spending generated $2.1 million in local taxes and $10.4 million in state taxes.

“Some of the increase in visitor spending can be attributed to a 5% increase in summer visitors to our destination compared to summer of 2021 plus the high gas prices we saw in summer of 2022,” said Janice Langlinais, executive director of the Coos Bay-North Bend-Charleston Visitor & Convention Bureau (VCB). “In addition, we have seen a nice

increase in visitors flying to the destination through Southwest Oregon Regional Airport in North Bend, up 10% over 2021 according to Dean Runyan & Associates.”

Coos County Airport District Public Information Officer Stephanie Kilmer says the increase in visitors flying through OTH is not surprising since overall commercial passenger enplanements, including both visitors and residents, were reported to be up nearly 40% in 2022 over the previous year.

In 2019, visitor spending in Coos County topped $277.3 million but that spending fell dramatically in 2020 to $179.3 million, particularly in the retail and food services sectors.

Visitor spending recovered slightly in 2021, reaching $218.6 million, a 22% increase over 2020.

All of this information was shared with the tourism and business sectors when the Coos Bay-North Bend-Charleston Visitor & Convention Bureau

recognized travel’s essential contributions to our local economy by hosting a luncheon with guest speaker Todd Davidson, CEO of Travel Oregon, on Wednesday, May 10, at The Mill Casino Hotel & RV Park during National Travel & Tourism Week.

“This luncheon is part of the Bay Area Chamber of Commerce’s weekly Wednesday Business Connection.

However, this particular luncheon will be all about the travel and tourism economy in Coos Bay, North Bend and Charleston, also known as Oregon’s Adventure Coast, as well as Coos County and Oregon,” said Langlinais.

“Travel is at the heart of Oregon’s Adventure Coast and all of Oregon, powering a strong U.S. economy, creating jobs and strengthening our community’s culture and identity,” said Lucinda DiNovo, Chair of the VCB Board and Vice-Chair of the Oregon Tourism Commission. “This National Travel and Tourism Week, we are proud to

celebrate all that travel does for our community now, and all that it will contribute in the future.”

National Travel and Tourism Week, (NTTW) the annual celebration of the contributions of the U.S. travel industry, spotlights the essential role that travel plays in driving economic growth and innovation through the theme #TravelForward.

“The travel industry fuels every industry— our industry’s success is the nation’s success,” said U.S. Travel Association President and CEO Geoff Freeman.

“This week is a prime opportunity to elevate the message that travel is essential to moving America’s economy forward.”

Established in 1983

by President Ronald Reagan, NTTW is an annual tradition to mark the U.S. travel industry’s role in stimulating economic growth, cultivating vibrant communities, creating quality job opportunities, stimulating business activity, and elevating the qual-

ity of life for everyday Americans.

Travel serves as a catalyst for a productive U.S. economy and helps power the success of other industries. The U.S. travel industry generated a $2.6 trillion economic output in 2022 and supported 15 million jobs, fueling communities, small businesses and working families across the country.

Travel spending also generated nearly $160 billion in federal, state and local taxes in 2022—revenue that helped fund critical public services while saving each U.S. household an average of $1,270 in taxes.

Dear Abby By

Abigail Van Buren

Dear Abby:

Dear Abby:

I have been with my boyfriend for three months. We've had our ups and downs. He's more into me than I am into him. I was recently diagnosed with breast cancer, and he has offered to drive me to my surgery and help me at home in recovery. He's also willing to take me to my follow-ups and help with anything else I may need.

He's retired, has time and resources, and he cares a great deal about me. We live about two miles apart. I like him, too. I think that after knowing someone for only a few months, it takes a special character and a huge amount of caring to take on being their caregiver after a major surgery.

There will be a lot of driving to another city and back.

I don't really have anyone else -- no family. I'm thankful to him for doing this, but I wonder what kind of support he is going to need and how I can show my appreciation. So far, he has been very loyal and committed.

— GRATEFUL IN OREGON

DEAR GRATEFUL: This man may be more into you at this point in your relationship, but let's see how you feel after your surgery and recuperation. From where I sit, that man is a keeper. I have heard from women whose husbands ran for the door upon learning their wives received a cancer diagnosis, or after they started treatment.

It's nice that you are worried he may not have the support he needs while he is taking care of you. If that's the case, the American Cancer Society (cancer.org) offers support groups for caregivers as well as patients, and your doctor may be able to refer him to one. Take one day at a time. I wish you a speedy and complication-free recovery.

I am a man who let a woman move into my house 10 years ago. She's intelligent and said she was going to get a professional job in her former field, but she never tried. She moved all her possessions in, and her stuff is piled high everywhere. She's a COVID fanatic and insists we live separately -- she's downstairs, and I'm upstairs. We are both fully vaccinated.

She puts food out for me, and I have not even been "allowed" to go downstairs in my own house. She has a bit of a temper. She pays no rent or utilities. She has little money yet refuses to take her Social Security, although she's eligible, which I find bizarre. I've been reluctant to have her evicted. What can I do?

— BIGGEST IDIOT ON EARTH

DEAR 'IDIOT': Call your lawyer and explain what has been going on, because you may need assistance in following my advice, which is this: Tell the freeloading woman you have had it with the living arrangement and need her out of YOUR home. Give her a date by which she has to be out of there and, if there are any problems, formally evict her. You may have to give her a down payment on a rental, but only if you feel generous. It looks to me like you have allowed yourself to be taken advantage of.

Scientists begin to unravel global role of atmospheric dust in nourishing oceans

BY SEAN NEALON, 541-737-0787

turn the carbon into organic matter through photosynthesis. Some of the newly formed organic matter sinks from the surface ocean to the deep sea, where it is locked away, a pathway known as the biological pump.

In the new paper, Westberry and other scientists from Oregon State; University of Maryland, Baltimore County; and NASA Goddard Space Flight Center estimate deposition of dust supports 4.5% of the global annual export production, or sink, of carbon. Regional variation in this contribution can be much higher, approaching 20% to 40%, they found.

“That’s important because it’s a pathway to get carbon out of the atmosphere and down into the deep ocean,” Westberry said. “The biological pump is one of the key controls on atmospheric carbon dioxide, which is a dominant factor driving global warming and climate change.”

In the ocean, vital nutrients for phytoplankton growth are largely provided through the physical movement of those nutrients from deep waters up to the surface, a process known as mixing or upwelling. But some nutrients are also provided through atmospheric dust.

Guest Article

New research led by an Oregon State University scientist begins to unravel the role dust plays in nourishing global ocean ecosystems while helping regulate atmospheric carbon dioxide levels.

Researchers have long known that phytoplankton – plantlike organisms that live in the upper part of the ocean and are the foundation of the marine food web – rely on dust from land-based sources for key nutrients. But the extent and magnitude of the impact of the dust – particles from sources such as soil that are lifted by the wind and impact the Earth’s climate – have been difficult to estimate globally.

“This is really the first time it has been shown, using the modern observational record and at the global scale, that the nutrients carried by dust being deposited on the ocean are creating a response in the surface ocean biology,” said Toby Westberry, an oceanographer at Oregon State and lead author of the just-published paper in Science.

The ocean plays an important role in the carbon cycle; carbon dioxide from the atmosphere dissolves in surface waters, where phytoplankton

To date, the understanding of the response by natural marine ecosystems to atmospheric inputs has been limited to singularly large events, such as wildfires, volcanic eruptions and extreme dust storms. In fact, previous research by Westberry and others examined ecosystem responses following the 2008 eruption on Kasatochi Island in southwestern Alaska.

In the new paper, Westberry and Michael Behrenfeld, an Oregon State professor in the Department of Botany and Plant Pathology, along with scientists from UMBC and NASA built on this past research to look at phytoplankton response worldwide.

Westberry and Behrenfeld focused their efforts on using satellite data to examine changes in ocean color following dust inputs. Ocean color imagery is collected across the global ocean every day and reports changes in the abundance of phytoplankton and their overall health. For example, greener water generally corresponds to abundant and healthy phytoplankton populations, while bluer waters represent regions where phytoplankton are scarce and often undernourished.

The scientists at UMBC and NASA focused their efforts

on modeling dust transport and deposition to the ocean surface.

“Determining how much dust is deposited into the ocean is hard, because much of the deposition occurs during rainstorms when satellites cannot see the dust.

That is why we turned to a model,” said UMBC’s Lorraine Remer, research professor at the Goddard Earth Sciences Technology and Research Center II, a consortium led

by UMBC. The UMBC team used observations to confirm a NASA global model before incorporating its results into the study.

Working together, the research team found that the response of phytoplankton to dust deposition varies based on location.

In low-latitude ocean regions, the signature of dust input is predominately seen as an improvement in phytoplankton health, but not abundance. In contrast, phytoplankton in higher-latitude waters often show improved health and increased abundance when dust is provided.

This contrast reflects differing relationships between phytoplankton and the animals that eat them.

Lower latitude environments tend to be more stable, leading to a tight bal-

ance between phytoplankton growth and predation. Thus, when dust improves phytoplankton health, or growth rate, this new production is rapidly consumed and almost immediately transferred up the food chain.

At higher latitudes, the link between phytoplankton and their predators is weaker because of constantly changing environmental conditions.

Accordingly, when dust stimulates phytoplankton growth, the predators are a step behind, and the phytoplankton populations exhibit both improved health and increased abundance.

The research team is continuing this research, bringing in improved modeling tools and preparing for more advanced satellite data from NASA’s upcoming Plankton, Aerosol, Cloud, ocean Ecosystem (PACE) satellite mission, some of which will be collected by the UMBC-designed and -built HARP2 instrument.

“The current analysis demonstrates measurable ocean biological responses to an enormous dynamic range in atmospheric inputs,” Westberry said. “We anticipate that, as the planet continues to warm, this link between the atmosphere and oceans will change.”

BE BEARWISE

There is much to look forward to at the Oregon coast with the onset of warmer and sunnier weather - but bears getting into your garbage is not one of them. With spring comes the emergence of black bears from their dens in search of food.

Now is the prime time to look around your property and make sure food sources attractive to bears are secure and inaccessible. If you live along the Oregon coast or own or manage coastal rental property, consider using bear-resistant trash cans.

A bear’s strongest sense is smell and everything from trash cans to grill drippings can bring them to your property. Finding your trash spread out across the yard or driveway can certainly ruin your day, but the consequences could be much more severe. If bears become habituated to humans (too comfortable around people) they could pose a serious threat to human safety.

A bear that loses its wariness of people and becomes conditioned to human-provided sources of food may

be humanely killed. This is often the only option to protect humans and ultimately to protect the larger bear population from learning the same behavior.

Bears, like all wildlife, have a specialized diet that coincides with seasonal changes. Access to human-provided food can negatively impact their health, lead to conflict with humans and in many cases have fatal consequences.

Bears have a great memory when it comes to food. Not only will they remember where they have found food before, including trash, but female bears will also pass this knowledge down to their young. Intentionally or unintentionally feeding bears can negatively affect multiple generations of bears.

The good news is that most conflict between humans and bears is preventable. Bears don’t want to be around humans, but the prospect of an easy meal is often too good to resist. Removing things that attract them to the area is the most import-

ant thing you can do to protect people and ensure bears stay wild.

Follow these BearWise tips: • Never feed or approach bears.

Feeding bears, intentionally or unintentionally, will cause them to associate humans with food. It is also against the law in Oregon (ORS 496.730).

• Secure food, garbage and recycling. Please ensure that your trash and dumpsters are secure from bears by using commercially available garbage cans, metal bars over dumpsters, fully enclosed trash storage, or by storing garbage inside. Take trash out immediately before pick-up, not the night before. Wash garbage cans with bleach to reduce their smell.

Food waste is one of the strongest attractants for black bears and allowing bears access could qualify as illegal feeding if appropriate steps are not taken to prevent the issue.

• Remove bird feeders when bears are active. Birds have plenty of naturally available food sources and bears will commonly feed from and destroy

birdfeeders.

• Never leave pet food outdoors. It attracts bears and other wildlife, putting your pets and wildlife at risk.

• Clean and store grills after each use.

• Alert neighbors and ODFW to unusual bear activity (continued sightings during daylight hours, lack of wariness around humans or pets, etc.).

Share these tips with your neighbors, friends and family. A community effort is vital to preventing problems with bears. One person who feeds or attracts bears, intentionally or not, can pose a risk to everyone in the neighborhood.

Living responsibly with black bears is possible and it’s up to everyone to do their part to keep humans safe and bears wild. Contact your local ODFW office to report unusual bear activity or for information and resources to help prevent conflict with black bears.

Prevent Wildfires:

Weekender

Consider alternatives to debris burning

The Oregon Department of Forestry (ODF) and other fire prevention experts urge the public to exercise caution when disposing of yard debris this spring. With fires already occurring in the state, particularly in the Southwest and Central Oregon District, Oregonians need to keep fire prevention at the top of their mind.

Now is a great time to trim trees and bushes, and tidy up plants around your home to create a “defensible space” around your property. Defensible space creates a buffer around your home that can help protect your home from catching fire and provides firefight-

ers with a safe space to work from.

After your clean up, you will have a lot to dispose of. Debris burning is the leading human-related fire cause on ODF-protected lands, so as you begin this spring clean-up, the Oregon Department of Forestry and Keep Oregon Green urge you to put some extra thought into how you want to dispose of your yard debris.

Considering alternatives to burning like composting, chipping, or slowly disposing of it via your yard debris bin (if you have one) helps to prevent wildfire in your area. Check with your local disposal company for recycling

options. By choosing an alternative disposal method, or burning under safe conditions outside of fire season, you can help significantly reduce the risk of a wildfire.

If you would still prefer to burn your yard debris, consider waiting until the rainy fall and winter seasons. Delaying your burn plans will give the debris more time to cure and avoid holdover fires when the weather gets hotter and drier over the next several weeks. You can cover part of the pile with plastic to preserve a dry area to start your fire.

If burning now is the only option to dispose of yard debris, fire prevention specialists ask

“Doctor, I have a suspicious looking mole on my shoulder.”

Get Clear

people to follow safe burning practices. The following tips can help stop runaway burn piles: • Call before you burn – Burning regulations vary by location depending on the weather and fuel conditions. If you are planning to burn, check with your local ODF district, fire protective association, fire department, or air protection authority to learn about current burning restrictions or regulations, and if you need a permit.

• Stay with the fire until it is out cold – NEVER leave your debris burn unattended. State laws requires monitoring of debris burn piles from start to finish until it is out cold.

This law is intended to ensure sparks or embers that jump from the fire can be put out quickly.

• Know the weather – Burn early in the day and never burn on dry or windy days, because fires can spread out of

control more easily.

• Clear a 10-foot fuel-free buffer around the pile – Make sure there are no tree branches or power lines above.

• Keep burn piles small – Large burn piles can cast hot embers long distances. Keep piles small, maximum of four feet by four feet.

Add debris to the pile in small amounts as the pile burns.

• Always have water and fire tools nearby – When burning, have a charged water hose or a bucket of water, and shovel on hand to put out the fire. Drown the pile with water, stir the coals, and drown again, repeating until the fire is cold to the touch.

• Go back and check burn piles. They can retain heat for several weeks and restart when the weather warms up and winds blow.

• Never use gasoline or other flammable or

combustible liquids to start or speed up your fire.

• Burn only yard debris – State laws prohibit burning materials or trash that create dense smoke or noxious odors.

• Costs of runaway debris burns– State law requires the proper clearing, building, attending and extinguishing of open fires all year. If your debris burn spreads out of control, you may have to pay for suppression costs, as well as the damage to your neighbors’ properties, which can be extremely expensive.

More tips on wildfire prevention, including campfire safety, motorized equipment use, and fire-resistant landscaping can be found on the Keep Oregon Green website.

Check the public use restrictions for Oregon Department of Forestry protected lands before you burn.

Last week, a bipartisan coalition of Oregon Senators approved an initiative that will direct more support to rural firefighters. Senate Bill 1068 will simplify how property owners not currently included in rural fire protection districts can join those districts to support firefighting efforts.

Specifically, the bill will allow property owners to consent to addition of their land to rural fire protection districts and authorizes the board of directors of a district to annex to the district, under certain circumstances, lands within the coverage area of the district.

It closes a loophole that created pockets of land that were protected by a rural fire protection district but not paying

for the service.

“This is a simple issue of fairness. It fixes a mistake in an old statute that has had devastating consequences. This bill helps Oregon’s rural fire protection districts get the funding they need and are supposed to receive so they can meet firefighter staffing and safety standards,” said Senator Lew Frederick (D-Portland), who drafted the legislation and carried the bill. “Our firefighters, who put their lives on the line to protect our communities, deserve our unwavering support and this legislation is an important step."

SB 1068 had the support of firefighters across the state, who say it will improve the ability of rural fire

protection districts in Oregon to respond to fire and other emergency situations.

“Senate Bill 1068 fortifies the role of our rural fire protection districts in effective wildfire suppression in Oregon’s remote residential areas,” said one of the Chief Sponsors of the bill, Senator Jeff Golden (D-Ashland).

“The core idea is fair sharing of costs and responsibilities among the people protected by these rural fire protection districts and stabilizing their operating budgets over the long term. We can’t meet the challenge of the new normal of wildfire without them.”

Senate Bill 1068 now moves to the House of Representatives for consideration.
