If you've been told that surgery is your next step…If you're living with constant flare-ups…If you've “thrown your back out” more times than you can count…We need to talk.At Mosier Family Chiropractic, one of the most life-changing therapies we offer is spinal decompression — and it's helping people avoid unnecessary spine surgery every single week.Let's break it down simply.What Is Spinal Decompression?Think of your spine like this:BoneDiscBoneThat disc in between is like a jelly donut. The inside (called the nucleus pulposus) is soft and fluid-filled. The outside is tougher.When you're injured — car accident, lifting injury, repetitive strain — the joint can shift. When that joint stops moving properly:The disc dehydratesIt bulges or herniatesNerves become irritatedPain beginsHere's the critical part most people don't realize:

Portland, Oregon is a long way from New York City boys, from Boston and PA...but still we love our Irish bars...and we revere our proud, independent, authentic AF bar proprietors. Katie Bullard and Carl Simpson started the legendary Dublin Pub in 1983, first in SE Portland where it attained peak notoriety and helped make Portland craft brewing history, before moving to its current location in 1989 on the site of another infamous bar -- The Faucet -- in the Raleigh Hills/Deep SW Portland/unincorporated Washington County area of the metro (6821 SW Beaverton Hillsdale Hwy). In an industry notably devoid of strong, almost tall-tale women owners and proprietors, Katie (aka "Mama Dub") was an aberration as the heart and soul of the DubPub for the better part of 40 years until her death in October of 2024. Nate and Alfredo visited 10 days before St. Patrick's day to chop it up with current owner (and original Katie Bullard hire) JT Mackey to learn how this beloved bar bridges its generational clientele gap and otherwise soak in the middle aged craic of the place.

Oregon is one of the nation's top destinations for data centers, attracted by the state's cheap power and favorable climate. Despite the state being an ideal location for data centers, Oregon and communities like Hillsboro in Washington County have been doling out massive tax subsidies to the corporate owners of data centers. That has been a very foolish thing to do, says Dirk Knudsen, a real estate broker and editor of the Hillsboro Herald. Dirk has followed closely the rise of data centers in Hillsboro. In this episode of Policy for the People, Dirk shares what he's learned about the data center boom.

Last month, the Washington County Sheriff’s Office began testing drones to respond to traffic crashes, crimes or other emergencies deputies might be dispatched to following a 911 call. Skydio, a California-based drone manufacturer, has provided the county with two of its drones and the “Drone as First Responder” software platform that it markets to law enforcement agencies across the nation.     A team of sheriff’s deputies who are FAA-certified drone pilots have been assigned to work on Washington County’s DFR trial program, which is expected to end in mid-April. The pilots work in shifts listening to incoming emergency dispatch calls. A pilot can respond to a call by remotely launching a drone, which has a range of roughly three miles, from its base in Aloha to the scene of an emergency to collect evidence or assess a crash site minutes before the arrival of deputies or other first responders. The DFR drones have responded to more than 90 calls for service since Feb. 20.    Matt Frohnert, a lieutenant in the patrol division of the Washington County Sheriff’s Office, joins us to share more details about the program.

Rhode Island may be the smallest state in the country, but it's not too small to be home to one of the biggest cryptids. This week I'm looking at Bigfoot sightings in the Ocean State, and this New England gem has some very unique reports.

Hunters, hikers, bicyclists, college students, and professors have all seen this white Sasquatch. Are they all imagining things?

'Diamond Bill' Barrett earned his nickname by sweet-talking a jewelry store into letting him borrow a $55,000 diamond, which he promptly hocked. Later, he deployed that legendary charm to sweet-talk two heiresses into marrying him, then disappeared with showgirl-turned-trophy-wife Sidi Wirt Spreckels' $100,000 string of pearls. But the mystery remains: Did he really steal Sidi's pearls ... or did he fence them for her?

The Red Cross Does More Than You Think When most people hear "American Red Cross," they immediately think of blood drives. However, as Deborah Fleming, Executive Director of the Greater Shenandoah Valley Chapter, explains to The Valley Today host Janet Michael, disaster relief and recovery represent a massive—and increasingly critical—portion of the organization's mission. Deborah oversees operations across 11 counties spanning West Virginia, Maryland, and Virginia, including Berkeley, Jefferson, Morgan, Hampshire, and Hardy counties in West Virginia; Washington County in Maryland; and Shenandoah, Frederick, Warren, Clarke, Page counties and the city of Winchester in Virginia. Beyond blood drives, the chapter provides training services like CPR and first aid, supports military families, and most importantly, coordinates disaster response and recovery efforts. A Growing Threat We Can't Ignore The statistics paint a sobering picture. Disasters are increasing in both frequency and intensity every year. While the Shenandoah Valley hasn't experienced catastrophic events on the scale of recent flooding in Southwest Virginia or the devastating wildfires in California, Deborah warns that complacency could prove dangerous. "These disasters are happening more rapidly, and their intensity is greater," she explains. "We haven't had the big disasters like we're seeing right now in California, but unfortunately we do expect that we're gonna be seeing more of those types of things." Moreover, the landscape of disaster response is shifting dramatically. Federal support through FEMA has been cut, and the focus is returning to local communities. This represents a significant reversal from the post-Katrina era when federal disaster response expanded considerably. "After Katrina, that's where FEMA expanded, because it's really difficult for one community to come up with the resources they need," Deborah notes. "So now that we're headed back in that direction, it's really important that each member of the community is prepared for themselves, but also to support the community that they live in." Building Your Emergency Kit: Beyond the Basics Deborah emphasizes that preparation begins at home. The first essential step involves creating an emergency kit that can sustain your household for a minimum of three days—though she strongly recommends preparing for two weeks. The kit should include one gallon of water per person per day, non-perishable food, medications, hygiene products, a battery-operated or crank radio (particularly NOAA weather radios), flashlights with extra batteries, a first aid kit, copies of important documents like passports and driver's licenses, and cash. Interestingly, Janet raises an important point during the conversation: emergency kits need regular updates as life circumstances change. She admits that despite maintaining a basement emergency kit for years, she never added supplies for her dogs after adopting them—no extra collars, leashes, pet food, or medications. Deborah validates this concern, explaining that pets are now accepted in Red Cross shelters because people often refuse to evacuate without their animals, putting themselves in dangerous situations. She recommends not only including pet supplies in emergency kits but also researching which hotels accept pets in advance. Making a Plan: When Technology Fails Having supplies represents only half the equation. Deborah stresses that families must also create comprehensive evacuation and communication plans. "How do I get out of the house? Do we have phone numbers that we have shared with other people so that they can get ahold of us?" she asks. "Do we have a meeting place? Do we know where the centers are that are most likely gonna be a place of support for us?" Critically, these plans cannot rely solely on smartphones. Deborah emphasizes writing down essential phone numbers and information because communication systems may fail during disasters. This is where AM radio becomes invaluable—a point that resonates strongly with the podcast's station owner, Andrew. "If your phone is not down, having those apps so that you can get the correct information as well," Deborah explains. "But of course we do communicate with the AM radio stations to make sure that we can allow people to know what is going on at any given time." For families with children in different locations during the day or household members with sensory conditions who might hide during emergencies, practicing evacuation plans becomes even more crucial. She recommends running through these plans several times a year. The Disaster Leadership Academy: Coordinating Community Response Recognizing that effective disaster response requires coordination among multiple organizations, Deborah announces the launch of a Disaster Leadership Academy. This initiative aims to bring together government agencies, nonprofits, businesses, and community members to ensure everyone understands their role when disaster strikes. "When disaster strikes, effective communication and coordination of leadership is essential in helping the community become resilient," Deborah explains. "When you have a lot of players, which you need in a disaster, if they aren't coordinated and talking with each other, they're gonna be tripping over each other." The academy doesn't compete with existing structures like VOADs (Volunteer Organizations Active in Disaster) but rather helps people discover and engage with these resources. Different communities have different needs—what Shenandoah County requires may differ drastically from what the city of Winchester needs based on geography alone. Deborah illustrates the importance of coordination with a practical example: if one organization opens a shelter without communicating this information, another might open a competing shelter, leaving disaster victims confused about where to seek help. Similarly, when people donate supplies without a coordinated distribution plan, those resources can go to waste. The academy will include simulations and mock Multi-Agency Resource Centers (MARCs), typically coordinated by emergency management, which bring together all organizations that can support disaster recovery. These exercises reveal not only what each organization does but also what they don't do, helping identify gaps in community preparedness. Community Mobilization: Your Neighbor Needs You Beyond organizational coordination, Deborah envisions a network of trained community members—ideally someone on every block or every two blocks—who know what questions to ask and where to direct neighbors for resources during emergencies. "Just imagine if you had somebody on every block of every community or every two blocks that were trained to know what questions to ask, where to go if there's a fire in your community, to get those resources to those people," she says. "What an amazing resource that would be." This grassroots approach proves particularly valuable for "minor" disasters—though Deborah acknowledges they're anything but minor to those experiencing them—like single-family or multi-family fires where residents lose everything. The commitment required isn't overwhelming. Deborah notes that even highly engaged Red Cross volunteers typically deploy only twice a year. The organization welcomes people who want to contribute a little, a lot, or anywhere in between. "A lot of people think, well, I'm not qualified or am I too old?" she says. "And no, you're not too old. And yes, you're qualified if you care for people, you are qualified to help." Taking the First Step For listeners inspired to get involved, Deborah recommends visiting RedCross.org to volunteer or calling 1-800-RED-CROSS. The organization will match volunteers with opportunities based on their interests and skills—whether that's disaster response, administrative work, finances and fundraising, or participating in the Leadership Academy. As Janet notes, there are people in every community who instinctively stop to help when they see someone pulled over on the roadside or come upon an accident. "You are that person," she tells listeners. "That's all you need to have is that, oh my gosh, I have to see what I can do." The Bottom Line Deborah's message throughout the conversation remains clear and urgent: the time to prepare is now, before disaster strikes. With federal resources shrinking and disasters intensifying, communities must build their own resilience through individual preparedness, organizational coordination, and neighborhood-level support networks. The Shenandoah Valley may have been fortunate so far, but that luck won't last forever. By building emergency kits, creating family plans, participating in community preparedness initiatives, and volunteering with organizations like the Red Cross, residents can ensure that when disaster does strike, their community will be ready to respond, recover, and rebuild together. As Deborah will continue to emphasize in her monthly appearances on The Valley Today throughout 2026, disaster preparedness isn't just about surviving the immediate crisis—it's about building communities strong enough to support each other through whatever challenges lie ahead.
