EDITOR LETTER/a note from Stephanie

Try a Little Tenderness

A

long with 1,000 contributing writers, I belong to a Facebook group for Her View From Home, a national blog with close to one million followers on Facebook that publishes stories written by women. It is the most supportive, encouraging and enlightening group I’ve ever been a part of, a sentiment shared daily by the hundreds of my Her View From Home compadres who actively post, share—and celebrate—their work, and engage within the group.

A couple of weeks ago, one of the members wrote a long post about how disappointed she was with the Her View From Home platform and writers group— she felt the editors had “obvious” favorites who she noticed being published more often than she was. She was disappointed that her most recent story had been shared thousands of times (35,000+) in the first two days, and then it quickly plateaued which made her suspicious of the inner workings of the online community. She said she knew she was different, her writing and thinking weren’t mainstream, and that she didn’t write to be popular, but to make people think. There were condescending and derogatory comments woven into the nearly 20 paragraph post which ended with her thanking everyone for ending her writing career—she was deleting her blog and all social media accounts associated with her writing. She would never write another word thanks to the platform and the group of authors who had never reached out to her or included her in group discussions.

I read every word, and then I went to her last published piece and read that, too. It was beautifully written—the pain within it, visceral. I regretted having missed her words

12

BOZZIMEDIA.com / MARCH 2020

until then. As with most of us, I’m hanging on by a thin thread most days as I swing in and out of the many roles I play in life. With 1,000 writers in that group—and not as much discretionary time as it takes to keep up with it all—I miss some things.

Fueled by a rush of empathetic energy— because I hated the idea of her sitting in that tangle of turmoil for any longer than she already had, or the thought of her venomous righteousness setting within her soul—I commented to let her know I heard her and I saw her. I reminded her that her words mattered, with or without the feedback of others, because she mattered, with or without the feedback of others. And if she felt compelled to write her guts out like that, it was definitely something she needed to release, and the world needed to hear.

That’s the thing with writers—we write because we must. It’s the journey of that emotional processing and creation that allows us to move on to the next level of our lives or the next moment. We free ourselves up a bit from the burdens of our own minds.

One thing that has made me resilient in the mad existence of sharing my own blood upon the page, has been to ensure my work can stand on its own two feet when I set it free into the world, so I don’t end up like an emotional leaf in the wind when it comes to the responses to it. Even when it’s something so deeply personal and seemingly cutting, I know it’s its own beast and I can kiss it goodbye as it heads out the door of my soul and into the hands and minds of the world (or a few readers).

Fortunately, life is full enough I can quickly get to work on the next darling little beast so as not to be paralyzed worrying about the last.

So, I wasn’t the only one from the Her View From Home team whose inclination was to respond kindly, gracefully, lovingly.

Although any one of us could have been offended by the bucket of arsenal she had fired off to the group that day—and responded with our own emotional missiles—hundreds of comments flooded that thread, filled with every brilliant word

and effort to lift her up, hold her up. In a beautiful and important act of humanity, we could see her pain above and beyond her response to it. Vitriol cannot be tempered with vitriol, after all—it is best absorbed by tenderness.

The fellow writer who shared her pain was, indeed, different. If we are doing life right, we are all magnificently different.

Nature has a way of knowing—and growing—in a direction that makes what already exists better, stronger, mightier, and more inspiring. There is no “normal,” there is no “same.” Each one of us is equipped in our own ways to enhance the whole of us all. The will of nature and the universe is progression, and progression in a species isn’t found when we are slaying or reacting to one another. Of course, there are unfortunate glitches and temptations that pop up along the way, but resist being lured in by them. No matter how maddening someone’s words or actions may feel, no matter how different they may seem from you, I challenge you to work to see the person—and, possibly, the pain—behind their words, actions and, well, existence. If you are living as freely and truly as yourself as possible—and facing and processing your own pain as it shows itself—you’ll be far less reactive and far more understanding, accepting and tender toward those around you, no matter their who or why or what or when. You’ll be part of what unites us, and drives us forward, together. And I thank you for that.

We are Spokane Coeur d’Alene Living, and we are Spokane and Coeur d’Alene. Please find me on Facebook and Instagram—and hop over to “like” the Spokane Coeur d’Alene Living pages—to stay connected between press dates, and share your thoughts, stories, and life in real time.

To tenderness,

Stephanie Regalado stephanie@spokanecda.com

LILACS to New York City lawmakers who have passed a law that shops and restaurants must be able to accept payments in cash.

Among some hipper shops there’s a movement away from cash to cards and Venmo, which is fine, although there is a cost. Some of the less privileged don’t have cards, banks or phones with apps. We personally don’t care how anyone pays, but cash should always be an option. We’d be fine, though, if they ever want to do away with pennies.

LILACS to Washington lawmakers who are promoting two bills that would allow Native American students to wear tribal regalia at their graduation ceremonies. Just as some are allowed to wear burkas, we feel the original peoples who lived here should be able to wear deeply meaningful objects of cultural significance. As it is, Native American students have the highest dropout rates in the country. Why not be supportive and inclusive and make them feel welcome?

LEMONS to the insurance company who tried to deny Clark’s Diamond Jeweler’s claim to pay for all their customers’ purchases between November 22 and December 31 as long as it snowed at least three inches on January 11. All the local meteorologists said it snowed well over that amount, but the insurance agency’s own “expert” said it snowed only 1.8 inches. In the end, Clark’s won, but the insurance company did their best to skate away.

LILACS to Washington lawmakers who overwhelmingly passed a bill that protects students and workers with ethnic hairstyles, such as dreadlocks and afros. Sending students or workers home for simply wearing their hair the way it grows naturally is wrong.

Look at any high school yearbook from the 1970s and you’ll see plenty of the craziest hair styles imaginable (including mine), and on people from every background. My friends in the ‘70s who sported ‘fros and hippie hair are now mostly wearing short hair, if they have hair at all. It’s just hair, folks.

BOZZIMEDIA.com / MARCH 2020

LEMONS to a recent report from apartmentlist.com that says Spokane is the eighth worst city in America for dating.

Apparently, Provo, Utah is the best. We feel that dating is rough all over; and it’s not a Spokane thing. Since we are somewhat insulated and isolated, people here THINK it’s terrible for dating, but the only thing that should make a city poor for dating would be if there’s a huge mismatch in genders or places to go. We feel dating apps have ruined romance by giving people the idea that there are tons of choices out there, and the next one might be the best one.

LILACS to Elijah Osborn who surreptitiously filmed grievous health code violations at QQ Sushi, which led to their closing for several days and a complete overhaul of the kitchen staff. Kudos to the owner, Bao Zhang, for taking immediate action, passing a new health district inspection, and reopening. Side note: businesses should probably be careful who they allow on their premises with a camera, but in this case it all worked for the best.

LEMONS to the Washington State Department of Transportation for buying up all those homes along Second and Third Avenues and then announcing that they’ve redesigned the freeway and maybe housing could go back there again. Putting that many affordable housing units out of commission placed a terrible burden on the available inventory. Plus wasn’t it a huge waste of taxpayer money to buy and move or demolish all of those homes? The new scaled back freeway plans might save even more money than was lost, but it still seems like poor planning. Maybe we should give them a break, though, they’ve only had since 1946 to figure this out.

Schade Towers Schade Towers began as Schade Brewery when it was built in 1903. According to its Spokane Historical page, the brewery closed during Prohibition, due to decreasing sales of its non-alcoholic beverages and the death of the founder of the brewery, Bernhardt Schade. It became a hotel for vagrants during the Great Depression before M. Rosauer purchased it in 1933, reopening as Golden Age Breweries Inc. In 1959, the brewery was sold to Inland Metal, who used it as a warehouse until the later seventies. Now called Schade Towers, the former brewery is home to a variety of businesses and forms a distinctive part of the Spokane's eastern downtown skyline.

SCOTLAND

In June 2019, Shepherd Lally’s grandparents, Joel and Joy Moore, took him on his 10 year old trip, a tradition his grandparents began for their grandkids in 2010. They have taken seven of their eight grandchildren on a trip of their choice.

Shepherd chose Scotland and hoped to see “Nessie” the Lock Ness Monster. Although he didn’t see Nessie, he did hear many stories from those who had claimed to.

They visited many castles, competed in the Highland Games, saw Queen Elizabeth’s summer residence, rode a bike along the Caledonian Canal, held a falcon and a bald eagle, listened—and danced—to bagpipes and much more.

QUOZON, PHILLIPINES

The Kamay ni Hesus Shrine at Lucban in Quezon is a sought-after pilgrimage destination known for its miraculous healing masses and the steep hill that leads to a majestic Risen Christ statue. Given the Philippines’ rich Catholic culture, it is no surprise that thousands of devotees flock here, especially every Holy Week to repent, reflect, and give thanks. Spokane Coeur d’Alene Living magazine’s Emily Bozzi loves to visit when she’s in her home country.

She says, “It’s like walking in a historic page of the Bible.”

PROTECT RENTERS. Rising rents. Inadequate or poor living conditions. Maintenance problems unaddressed.

Lease rates exceeding 30 percent or even 50 percent of monthly income. Affordable housing on the suburban fringe instead of in the urban core. For many in our city, the housing “market” simply isn’t working.

According to data from the U.S. Census Bureau, of the more than 100,000 housing units in the city of Spokane, about 44 percent are rented to someone other than the owner. The average rent in our city has increased 74 percent in the past decade, and now tops $1,300 per month, according to Zillow. While this is increase is being driven in part by an influx of new residents, often fleeing Seattle and other expensive metros, vulnerable Spokanites often pay the most extreme price.

Under current state law and local ordinances, rent increases can come with little notice. A tenant can be evicted without cause. Move-in costs (which tend to include the first month of rent, a security deposit, and often the last month’s rent) can exceed a unit’s monthly lease rate many times over.

Sometime in the next few weeks or months (timing is unclear as of this writing), the Spokane City Council will consider a broad set of tenant protections designed to alleviate

BOZZIMEDIA.com / MARCH 2020

the most burdensome challenges faced by local renters. Most crucially, the ordinance is expected to require most landlords to cite a “just cause” (such as failure to pay rent, to remodel, demolish, or replace the unit, or to allow a family member to occupy the unit) when evicting a tenant. Fair notice of thirty days would be required for such an eviction. The ordinance is also expected to limit security and pet deposits and require compensation if a rent-increase causes a tenant to pay more than 30 percent of their income in rent.

For the 50 percent of Spokanites who rent their living accommodations, these measures offer a massive improvement to the status quo. And because more than 70 percent of Spokanites of color are renters (as opposed to 30 percent of white residents), they would dramatically improve housing equity. City Council should pass them at the earliest opportunity.

But we can’t stop there. Far too many residents remain one rent increase away from losing their home, and far too many are prevented from entering the market in the first place.

In Oregon and California, ambitious state legislatures have limited rent increases through legislation. Seattle is experimenting with limiting wintertime evictions, and has banned landlords from conducting most criminal background checks. Washington, D.C. requires security deposits to be held in interest-bearing accounts, and California limits them to no more than two months’ rent. Spokane––and Washington State more broadly––should absolutely learn from these leaders.

Tenant protections are just one part of ensuring housing affordability. But as we encourage additional housing development (both through zoning reform and through direct subsidy), they can help ensure that more of our city can have stable, affordable housing in the here and now.

THE SCENE/julia sweeney

I always cobbled together a living,

and a good living Like the tale of her unexpected wave of recent showbusiness success following that decade-long hiatus. A long break can mean an insurmountable cease of momentum in the entertainment industry, but Sweeney just finished a landmark year, acting in three television series and refining her latest one-person show, “Julia Sweeney: Older & Wider,” which she’s filming in Spokane this spring.

The road to this point hasn’t followed a straight, continuous line. A Spokane native who grew up on the South Hill, after college Sweeney spent years working as an accountant in Los Angeles before making an unexpected turn into entertainment. She took classes and refined her comedy at the Groundings, which led to her successful run on Saturday Night Live in the early 1990s. SNL was followed by a series of jobs in the industry—writing pilots, playing parts in sitcoms, writing and consulting for shows like Sex and the City and Desperate Housewives, and performing one-person live shows including “God Said, ‘Ha!’” and “In the Family Way.” “I always cobbled together a living, and a good living,” she says.

Then life took another turn in 2001 when she adopted her daughter, Mulan. “I was so overwhelmed by parenting, and single parenting,” Sweeney says. It was unsettling to feel her priorities shift under her feet.

“It was hard because I didn’t care about work anymore,” she says. “To me, that was the biggest hit of parenting. I really lost interest in work. I wanted to be home, I wanted to make dinner … I wanted to be there after school to find out what happened. Really be present.”

Following her marriage to her husband—Michael Blum, a scientist—she decided to become a stay-at-home mom.

“I told my agent for 10 years, ‘Don’t send me out for any acting parts,’” she remembers.

As her daughter approached college age, Sweeney began to think about how to reintroduce herself to Los Angeles (“Hello Hollywood, I’m back and this is what I look like, and this is how you should cast me!” she quips). She developed “Older & Wider,” the funny, personal, and profound show that’s received critical acclaim in major cities across the country. In the meantime, she also auditioned for and—to her surprise—got cast in the role of Aidy Bryant’s character’s mother on the series Shrill (Hulu). Sweeney was also cast in roles in the series American Gods (Starz) and Work in Progress (Showtime), which she also executive produces.

The recent past has been full of more “yeses” than her earlier years. As a young woman in Hollywood, “I probably spent a year going out for the sexy ingenue parts because I was in the age range for it, but I didn’t have the look or the ‘zhuzh’ of it,” she says. She got used to being turned down, an essential quality for survival in a profession where they “reject you over and over again based on your looks.”

“You have to have a good sense of self and a good sense of humor and you have to have a good community of people to laugh about it with,” she says. “You have to have a very high tolerance for rejection.”

Sweeney is matter-of-fact about the wave of success that’s come in her 60s. “I arrived at the right look for myself. I was the right age—I could be the mother of someone in their 30s,” she says pragmatically. “That’s a huge thing in Hollywood.” By the time an actor is able to carry a show, “the star is probably going to be someone in their 30s. Once I was in my 60s and could be the mother of someone in their 30s, that opened up a whole other category for me.”

“My personality and looks have come together into one understandable product,” she says with a laugh.

She’s coming home to Spokane to film her live show on April 2 and 3 at Martin Woldson 30

BOZZIMEDIA.com / FEBRUARY 2020

Theater at The Fox, where she worked as an usher in high school and which she considers “the most beautiful theater in America.” She describes the content as “very stand-uppy storytelling.”

It includes observational humor and personal stories, topics like launching a kid out into the world, religion, cancer, feminism, and the complex legacy of Pat, the iconic character she popularized on SNL. While the show is not pushing the comedic envelope in terms of, for instance, talking explicitly about sex, “it’s edgy in a deeper way,” she says.

Sweeney has “worked harder on this show than any show to really construct a joke,” sometimes with the help of an unexpected collaborator: her non-showbiz husband, “who’s funny in this way that I’m not funny at all,” she says. “It turned into this great thing for our marriage.”

Because she’s performed the show in Spokane previously, Sweeney’s providing audiences with extra incentives to attend by giving away 500 seats to each performance to those who sign up for her mailing list and pricing the rest at $25. If you sign up for the mailing list you’re likely to get a fun bonus: a written response from Sweeney herself. “I personally am writing them back and going, ‘Thank you for coming,’” she says.

2019 was a good year, and 2020 is shaping up well. “I made more money as an actress in 2019 than I have ever made as an actress, even having taken ten years off,” she acknowledges. Yet she’s fully aware that “we absolutely cannot count on that happening again. I might now not work for four years.”

“But what it ignited in me is how much fun I have acting, and how much I love acting.”

Julia Sweeney: Older & Wider, April 2 and 3 at 7:30 p.m. at the Martin Woldson Theater at The Fox. Details and tickets can be found at foxtheaterspokane.org.

Fresh Local Titles to Add to Your Bookshelves

I love that I barely turn a corner on social media these days without hearing of a new title by a local writer. The Inland Northwest is teeming with them!

Here are some of the books I’m most excited to add to my shelves.

Perhaps one of the most respected, oft-published poets in our region, Christopher Howell’s latest, The Grief of a Happy Life (University of Washington Press, October, 2019), has been leaping off of local bookstore shelves. Howell was a military journalist during the Vietnam War, and has since published a solid dozen poetry collections, garnering multiple awards on a local and national level, including the Washington State Book Award and a National Endowment for the Arts grant. He teaches in the MFA program at Eastern Washington University, mentoring our region’s newest literary talent. This latest collection has been compared to Wordsworth and Gilgamesh, and with good reason. Featuring a cast of characters as wide ranging as Aeneas and Saint Teresa, the collection examines how our polarities

(contentment/grief, remembering/imagining) pull and push against one another, how they define and merge. Pick up a The Grief of a Happy Life and find out why Christopher has been called “our finest active poet in the Pacific Northwest, and one of the finest nationally.”

Another local poet, Brooke Matson, is also writing on a major national stage, having received the notable Jake Adam York Prize of Poetry for her latest collection, In Accelerated Silence (Milkweed, February 2020). You might recognize Brooke’s name from the incredible work she’s done with Spark Central, the forward-thinking community center in Kendall Yards, where she is Executive Director.

Like Christopher’s latest, Brooke’s collection is a close study of grief, revolving around the cancer and death of a beloved. The publisher says, “In Accelerated Silence investigates the multidimensional nature of grief and its blurring of boundaries—between what is present and what is absent, between what is real and imagined, between the promises of science and the mysteries of human knowing, and between the pain that never ends and the world that refuses to…”

Brooke builds these startling poems from ideas of Eve and the pomegranate, the multiverse, the atom bomb, supermassive stars and more, making the collection as broad-reaching and sprawling as it is intimate and exact. I cried at her recent event, where she performed the poems from memory to the accompaniment of a cello, as much moved by her understanding of grief as by her profound recognition that there is so much we as humans will never grasp. I’m absolutely wowed by this collection.

Also as profound and powerful, but in a slap-your-knee, laugh-out-loud, cryas-much-from-the-truth-as-from-the-humor sort of way, is Tiffany Midge’s latest, Bury My Heart at Chuck E. Cheese’s (Nebraska Press, Ocober, 2019). Tiffany is a wonderful humorist and delivers some of the most complex, interesting, and sharpest cultural criticisms in the lit world. An award-winning poet living in Moscow, Idaho, Tiffany is a citizen of the Standing Rock Sioux, and has published writing widely in Indian Country, McSweeney’s, Lit Hub and more. Sarah Vowell raves about the book, as does Devon Mihesua, who calls her a “literary comedic genius,” acknowledging her riffs on Native life, Anne Coulter, and “the use of ‘ugh’ in American literature.” LOL. Spokane born-and-raised writer S.M. Hulse, now a professor at The University of Nevada in Reno, has just published a second novel, Eden Mine (Farrar, Straus and Giroux, February 2020). Her first novel, Black River, was a PEN/American finalist and an American Library Association notable book. Like Black River, Eden Mine is set in Montana, but this time in a small town hit hard by an act of

14TH AND GRAND SALON 509.624.7263

domestic terrorism. S.M. Hulse is a master of writing sensitively about family, faith, and the rural West, and this will no doubt be another beautifully-written page-turner.

And while we’re discussing pageturners, check out Ian Pisarcik’s debut novel, Before Familiar Woods (Crooked Lane Books, March 2020). A starred review in Publisher’s Weekly says this mystery thriller is “an outstanding debut that begins in the aftermath of a tragedy,” and Booklist calls it “Hemingwayhaunted.” Ian was born and raised in rural New England, and the novel is set in Vermont, but Pisarcik lives here in the Inland Northwest with his family.

And, a little plug for my own independent publishing company (although not really, since Scablands Books is donating all proceeds to the new Carl Maxey Center), the chapbook anthology Try This at Home is out now from the Diverse Voices Writing Group of Spokane (Scablands Books, February 2020).

Filled with poetry, memoir, fiction, and more, the anthology showcases several fresh new literary voices and is a celebration of diversity here in the Lilac City.

Pick these titles up and more at our wonderful local bookstores, Auntie’s and Wishing Tree Books. Support your local indie booksellers. And you can always request them through your local Spokane Public Library or Spokane County Library District branch.

Here’s to a gorgeous spring filled with new reads.

Chef Joe McCarthy

z t l e M

Although he is known throughout our region as the king of the grilled cheese, Chef Joe

McCarthy’s roots are actually in fine dining. He has worked in top restaurants in New York and Chicago and his aspirations were originally to become a celebrity chef. This humble food, though, has given him a whole lot to celebrate, and a powerful creative outlet in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho. From a chef ’s standpoint, he feels that you can go anywhere around the world with grilled cheese. Meltz is no stranger to accolades. USA Today named them in an article highlighting a great grilled cheese sandwich in each state, they earned the North Idaho Business Journal’s Best Sandwich, best fast-casual dining in North Idaho from the Spokane Guild, and the Inlander’s Best Mac and Cheese in North Idaho. If you haven’t been yet, simply put, you’re missing out.

How did he make this little spot in a gas station strip mall such a success? “Everything is better with cheese,” he laughed as he explained. “My skills in fine dining can actually show through pretty well with the versatility of such a deceptively simple product and concept.” Inspiration to start Meltz came from the desire to become an entrepreneur while he was working as a chef for the Indianapolis 500 series for more than 10 years, and his job entailed flying around the country for up to 20 weeks of the year being away from his family. “I need to figure this out because I don’t want to be gone this much,” he said. “There weren’t many jobs for chefs in the area at that time, where they pay you for what you are worth with your skillset as a chef, so you end up having to make your own brand.” He also cooked twice at the James Beard House and was eagerly looking to his next opportunity when he stumbled upon a new idea to keep him close to home with his growing family.

He thought about what would work locally, and when he saw a Food Network special on the “Grilled Cheese Truck” out of Los Angeles, a light bulb went on. In our cold climate, with an approachable price point and with the potential versatility of the product, he knew he could have a real winner on his hands. And win it has.

The selections currently available are ever-changing, and packed with bold, interesting flavors. A favorite of ours was the “California Roll” grilled cheese, which was inspired by—you guessed it—sushi. A National Grilled Cheese Award winner— the Potsticker—is a tried-and-true favorite and absolutely delicious every single time.

A recent creation that I was lucky to try was the Marleyz Meltdown, inspired by Bob Marley and his Carribean roots with plantain chips, jerk pork and cilantro. If you can dream it, he can make it into a delicious, crispy, extreme grilled cheese creation.

The difference in the quality of his product, he feels, comes from the strong vision

There weren’t many jobs for chefs in the area at that time, where they pay you for what you are worth with your skillset as a chef, so you end up having to make your own brand. been working there and what their strengths were. He clearly cares about his staff as individuals, and it shows in the interactions they have with each other and with customers every day.

He also showed a great deal of appreciation for his customers and explained how blown away he is every day by how graciously people tip his staff. They split all of the tips equally, and it helps to provide an income more reflective of their hard work.

“People don’t respect this industry enough, you know,” he explained. “Why can’t being an awesome person in hospitality or in food service be a respected career? It’s an awesome thing, serving people. It seems like in our world that it’s just something on the way to something else, and it’s tough. There are long hours in the kitchen, long hours on our feet, and it’s often just a lot of passion that keeps us going.”

You can find Meltz at 1735 W. Kathleen Ave. in beautiful Coeur d'Alene, Idaho.

and daily consistency provided by true chef ownership. He is there almost every day and is the guiding influence on the menu, service, and his relationship with customers. He has also learned valuable strategies along the way to maintain profitability. Although his first seven months were insanely busy, he didn’t turn a profit until he began to evaluate systems carefully and make strategic decisions to maximize his margins. Despite the fact that most restaurants do not survive the first two years, he beat the odds and continues to perform.

More than just a sandwich shop, his business thrives because of the dynamic individuals who work there. When I asked him how he supports his staff, he said, “I try to be more motivational than anything. I work to build them up rather than tear them down. As a chef, you can make food your whole world, and I think a lot of young chefs can get consumed in that.

But, it’s really about supporting people and trying to motivate, encourage them and provide them a lot of grace. Each person has their own skill set, and it’s about seeing what their assets are and making them fit in the best place for them in the puzzle here.” He pointed out the kitchen and service employees behind him and explained how many years each of them had

I love the people in our community the most.

MISSION: The INBA is providing a resource for our community to be able to contact businesses and organizations where they will be accepted, empowered, and allowed to thrive; in doing business, purchasing goods, hiring services, and seeking employment.

NEXT EVENT: The first annual INBA Chamber Awards Gayla presented by Kalispel Tribe, March 20 at Riverside Place, celebrating individuals, organizations, and businesses who continue to support, advocate, and create safe spaces and opportunities for the LGBTQ+ community.

Janice Miller Krummel

Executive Director, Inland Northwest Business Alliance Established: 1994

What is something people may not know about the work of your organization? Beyond promoting queer owned business and creating a resource

for the LGBTQ+ community to find safe spaces, we also work to help create those safe spaces. We’ve had several events that have focused on LGBTQ+ issues while including information for allies and organizations on how to be inclusive. Several of our board members are certified to teach courses on diversity and inclusivity on the basis of sexual orientation and identity and we are able to offer classes to groups and businesses. We have also made a commitment to collaborate and support our community nonprofits so we’re all able to come together to achieve our goals.

What do you love most about our community? I love the people in our

community the most. I have had the pleasure of meeting and becoming friends with some of the most passionate individuals. We have small businesses celebrating their anniversaries, gallery sneak peeks, fundraisers for close friends, apps developed, careers pursued, families started, books published, companies launched, and we have more nonprofit champions than we do potholes. It’s a gorgeous place to be surrounded by gorgeous people.

What sets your organization apart from other nonprofits? The INBA is

the only local LGBTQ+ business chamber serving all of the Inland Northwest. The only thing that sets our organization apart from others is just that; we’re the only one of our kind. Our region, and Spokane specifically, has so many incredible organizations working tirelessly for such wonderful causes, we can only hope to live up to the standards that already exist. Our goal is not to be set apart, our goal is to work alongside all our local organizations in order to best serve the LGBTQ+ community.

What excites you about the future of the organization? The INBA is so lucky

to have the history and foundation created by former board members and managers over the years. The INBA has evolved so much since it began, and we are so excited to start 2020 with the energy to continue serving our community, advocate for LGBTQ+ individuals, organizations, and businesses, and keep working toward the day where no one has to wonder where they will be safe.

What does the organization need now? Membership. The more organizations

and businesses that become members, the more we are able to show the rest of the county, state, and country that the Inland Northwest is accepting and welcoming to everyone. The more diverse and inclusive we are, the more people will come here and bring their ideas, their businesses, their passions, and create jobs, opportunities, and help our local businesses and organizations thrive.

Led by world-class scientists studying and developing solutions to the nation’s most pressing health concerns including autism and addiction, the College of Medicine has hauled in more than $62 million in grants and contracts since its inception in 2015.

Recently, scientists have been venturing beyond the lab to become entrepreneurs for their ideas, partnering with private enterprise to generate new products and companies that solve some of health care’s most challenging issues.

“From the very beginning, the College of Medicine was touted as having a strong potential for economic benefit due to its attractiveness to scientists and spin-off companies,” said John Tomkowiak, founding dean of the Elson S. Floyd College of Medicine. “Today, our scientists

This project also led to the establishment of a Spokane office and a new Spokanebased company called Managed Health Connections (MHC).

Under the MHC banner, work has also begun on a solution for reducing alcohol use in problematic drinkers.

In our new outpatient setting, we can serve more patients, with lower waiting times, more personalized service and treatment by specialists with the most capable and sophisticated technology available today.

Region’s Most Advanced Outpatient Interventional Radiology Lab Inland Imaging has launched a new, state-of-theart Outpatient Interventional Radiology Lab within the company’s recently expanded imaging center on the campus of Providence Holy Family Hospital.

The facility, the first of its kind in the United States, offers the region’s patients access to the highest level of medical expertise and technology in a convenient and flexible outpatient setting.

Inland Imaging’s

interventional radiologists specialize in providing minimally invasive treatments for vascular disease, cancer, aneurisms, uterine fibroids, prostate embolizations, and many other medical conditions that once could only be treated

by conventional surgery.

“In the past, patients would have had to travel to a large city to find a hospital with this kind of state-of-theart facility,” says Dr. Jayson Brower, an interventional radiology specialist and

Interventional radiology involves the use of imaging technology to aid in the performance of medical procedures inside the body.

Image guided procedures are less risky, offer a faster recovery time, and are generally more cost-effective than the surgical alternative.

Inland Imaging’s team of interventional radiology specialists are board-certified physicians with special training in performing image-guided medical procedures.

Inland Imaging has been delivering radiology services in the Northwest since 1930.

Today, Inland’s nearly 100 subspecialty radiologists and more than 600 technical, clinical and clerical staff work with patients, health care providers, hospitals, and clinics in Western, Central and Eastern Washington, Northern Idaho, and Western Montana to deliver fast, accurate medical imaging and expert analysis that helps guide and support patient care.

Leading the Way University of Washington School of Medicine partners with Gonzaga University to create a Leadership Pathway for medical students

Physicians graduating from medical school are amply equipped to treat patients, diagnose disease, interpret lab data and make high-stakes patient care decisions; but they sometimes feel less confident leading patient care teams or assuming community leadership roles.

Enter the Leadership Pathway, an innovative new option for UW School of Medicine (UWSOM) students studying in Spokane.

Four years in the making, this dynamic collaboration between UWSOM and Gonzaga University (GU) pairs leadership development with medical education, offering students leadership training, mentoring and practical application.

“We are so excited about this new pathway,” said Darryl Potyk, M.D., chief of Medical Education for the UW School of Medicine-Gonzaga University Regional Health Partnership and UWSOM associate dean for Eastern Washington. “Although our students receive leadership training as part of the regular curriculum, this new pathway takes it to a much higher level. We are the first medical school I'm aware of to partner with a School of Leadership Studies and give students an opportunity to emphasize leadership in their medical training.”

66

BOZZIMEDIA.com / MARCH 2020

Pathways are optional programs incoming UW medical students can apply for that target certain populations or interests.

Existing pathways include opportunities for students interested in improving global health disparities, caring for the underserved and understanding the specific needs associated with American Indian and Alaska Native health, Hispanic health or LGBTQ health. Students experience volunteer opportunities in their selected pathway and explore career interests with mentorship from staff, community members and providers who share those interests.

Upon completion of their pathway students receive recognition in their medical student performance evaluation (MSPE) and with a certificate, known as the Dean's Letter, at graduation. They also come away with a greater sense of confidence in reaching specific populations whose needs are often misunderstood.

Targeting the need for leadership skills

Rachelle Strawther

Darryl Potyk, M.D.

BOZZIMEDIA.com / MARCH 2020

The new Leadership Pathway was developed to help future physicians more easily step into roles that are often expected of them by strengthening and honing their leadership skills. This pathway complements UWSOM's focus on rural, underserved communities where those abilities are much needed.

“We hear time and again that doctors need well-developed leadership skills,” said Potyk.

Over decades of leadership in Eastern Washington's largest hospital and healthcare network, Mike Wilson, retired CEO of Providence Healthcare and Sacred Heart Medical Center and Children's Hospital and Holy Family Hospital, has witnessed the need for such expertise.

“Physicians need to be strong leaders,” he said. “Running a medical practice is like a business. Physicians are often called upon to manage discussions or reach consensus.

Having team-building abilities is important.”

Potyk said those are skills many physicians have had to learn on the job.

Jeff Collins, chief physician executive for Providence St Joseph Health's Washington/ Montana region, agreed, and said health care has become much more team oriented.

“Historically, physicians have been led to believe they're the captain of the ship, but other parts of the health care team have valuable insight too,” he said. “It's so helpful to teach providers how to work together for the benefit of the patient. Not everyone has to be a CEO. Sometimes you can be a leader in your group or specialty.”

In his experience as a primary care physician and in hospital administration, Collins discovered leadership has two distinct components—management and influence.

“Good leaders understand management,” he said. “But understanding influence— creating an atmosphere where people will follow you is important, too.”

Tapping the expertise of Gonzaga's School of Leadership Studies The Leadership Pathway will equip students with both knowledge and experience while connecting them with mentors from UW, Gonzaga and the community. Those experts include School of Leadership Studies dean, Rosemarie Hunter, Rachelle Strawther, director, Leadership Training and Development, and retired associate dean, Joe Albert.

Strawther said the students will learn to identify their strengths and weaknesses, and see how that fits with doctor/patient relationships and with their peers.

“They're going to be more effective in team environments, better equipped to respond to situations, and have a greater ability to manage stress,” said Strawther.

Hunter sees great value in creating space for this kind self-knowledge in medical education.

“Medicine is a high-stress, highconsequence profession. With so much emphasis on technical skills, there's often not time to develop emotional intelligence skills,” she said.

The second section of coursework will cover leading with others.

“We'll learn to discover leadership in others, work on conflict resolution and team dynamics,” Strawther said.

Finally, students will apply what they've learned within their community through involvement with organizations like the Spokane County Medical Society, the UWSOM Medical Student Association and other community groups.

Because this is the Leadership Pathway's inaugural year, the decision was made to keep the class size small. Out of 60 incoming students, 25 applied for the program and 15 were accepted.

“We want to make an impact,” said Strawther. “When we look at this work, we can see how it could have an incredible ripple effect.”

Men’s Health Matters

5 tips to maintain overall wellbeing

While family history and age cannot be changed, there are everyday steps men can follow to take charge of their health, including prostate health, and maybe even prevent problems down the road.

Consider these tips to help lead a healthier lifestyle.

Get checked out regularly. Just because you’re healthy doesn’t mean you should eschew routine checkups, and that includes self-examinations. While regular visits to your health care provider can keep you up-to-date on preventative screenings and immunizations, getting to know your own body can have similar benefits.

Care for your prostate. If you’re experiencing frequent urination, a weak or slow urine stream, incomplete bladder emptying, difficulty or delay in starting urination or a urine 70

stream that stops and starts, these may be signs you may be suffering from Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia (BPH), otherwise known as enlarged prostate. Enlarged prostate, which is non-cancerous and affects more than 40 million American men, can also cause loss of productivity and sleep, according to research published in the Journal of Urology. Medication is often the first line of treatment, but some patients may suffer uncomfortable side effects including dizziness, headaches and sexual dysfunction, which can prompt them to quit using their medications.

“Many men living with BPH symptoms take prescription medications after they have been diagnosed, but relief can be inadequate and temporary,” said Dr. Peter Walter, M.D., urologist.

As one alternative to medication, an option like the UroLift System treatment is a minimally invasive procedure that doesn’t require any cutting, heating or removal of

A urologist places small implants to lift and move enlarged prostate tissue so it no longer blocks the urethra and can allow for normal urine flow. Most common side effects are mild to moderate, and patients generally can return to their normal routines with minimal downtime. For more information about treatment options, or to find a urologist near you who treats BPH, visit urolift.com.

Focus on a more nutritious diet. Aim for a pattern of healthier eating that includes more fruits, vegetables and leafy greens such as lettuce, spinach, kale and broccoli, which can help keep you—and your prostate—healthy. Also try to cut back on consumption of red meat— specifically processed meat—as well as salt and sweets.

Know your numbers. Be sure to discuss your family history and lifestyle with your doctor as he or she may recommend screenings for diseases and common ailments. Be sure to keep up with these screenings and check in with your doctor to make sure you’re accounting for milestone ages and common ailments associated with aging.

Make exercise a priority.

Exercise is a key to maintaining quality of life. The American Heart Association recommends at least 150 minutes per week of moderateintensity aerobic activity for adults.

Even shorter increments of physical activity multiple times a day such as a walking meeting, opting for the stairs instead of the elevator or parking farther from your destination can provide health and stress-relieving benefits.

Hospice of Spokane Pays Tribute to Retiring Medical Director, Dr. Robert Bray

The year 2020 brings a significant change to Hospice of

Spokane as Dr. Robert Bray, the beloved medical director, retires in September from his position of 11 years.

As a life-long learner and educator, Dr. Bray served 17 years on the faculty at Family Medicine Spokane. During his tenure there, he joined the board for Hospice of Spokane. When the former medical director left, Dr. Bray tossed his name in the hat and subsequently became the new medical director in March 2009. In 2010, he became board certified in Hospice and

Palliative Medicine.

Dr. Bray’s journey included three years at an 18-bed hospital in rural Nebraska, before joining Rockwood Clinic for four years in family medicine.

During that time, he became board certified in geriatrics.

At Hospice of Spokane, Dr. Bray teams with nurses, social workers, nurse aides, chaplains, volunteers, and follow-up support by bereavement counselors to address the medical, emotional, psychological and spiritual needs of patients with terminal illness and their families. “This is accomplished through listening, understanding, and then making decisions that are truly centered on the patient,” says Dr. Bray.

“Being in the middle of a true interdisciplinary team—Hospice of Spokane is a poster child for this model,” Dr. Bray says. “Everyone is contributing and everyone’s contributions are respected.”

Dr. Bray will be fondly remembered as an inspiration to his staff and humble servant to patients and their families.

“Not only do I see Dr. Bray as a calm, centered and well-respected leader and mentor, but I also see him as Bob: a down to earth, authentic, and truly all-around good guy who laughs easily and very much cares about those around him,” says Director of Social Services Matt Kinder.

As for Dr. Bray, he looks forward to the opportunity to contribute to Hospice of Spokane through part-time work, while also enjoying more time for family and traveling.

New PTSD Treatment Gives Rapid Relief Without Drugs Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) does not strictly occur in military veterans. This

debilitating condition can affect people of all ages from all walks of life. Most experience nightmares, flashbacks, and severe anxiety and panic attacks. Others become hypervigilant, withdrawn, or depressed.

The psychological distress is often overwhelming, affecting every aspect of life. Left untreated it can lead to drug and alcohol abuse and even suicide.

Traditionally, PTSD is treated with behavioral therapy and pharmaceutical drugs. Unfortunately, this doesn’t work for many patients and can come with unwanted side effects.

But there is hope—and even a cure for PTSD in some patients, according to Dr. Katrina Lewis, medical director of Advanced PTSD Solutions + Advanced Anti-Ageing Solutions + Optimal Performance Solutions Alliance.

The treatment, known as Stellate Ganglion Block (SGB), helps to reset the sympathetic nervous system. This, in turn, can dramatically alleviate all common PTSD symptoms.

The procedure involves a simple injection to the neck, done with ultrasound guidance, to deliver a long-acting local anesthetic around the nerve bundle that controls the “fight or flight” response. It takes less than 15 minutes, results are immediate, and patients can return to their normal activities the same day. Number of blocks required varies with duration and severity of symptoms.

A practicing physician for more than 30 years, Dr. Lewis is triple board-certified in anesthesiology, pain medicine and functional medicine. Awarded for her PTSD research in 2019 by the American Society of Pain and Neuroscience, Dr. Lewis has developed her own unique treatment protocol that can bring safe, effective relief not only from PTSD, but also obsessive compulsive and panic disorders.

Echoing her commitment to improving the long term well-being of her patients, Dr. Lewis says, “It’s time to definitively treat the suffering of all those afflicted with PTSD.”

he first day of spring is just around the corner—landing on March 19 this year.

The sunshine has been such an inspiring gift. While shopping at a home decor boutique on Monroe St., I spotted this adorable lamp shade that lended the perfect idea for this month’s column.

This rustic moss covered lamp would be a perfect addition to spruce up any space with a little touch of spring. You can pick up a one-of-a-kind handmade lamp by a local vendor or if you are in the mood to knock out a DIY project, you only need a hot glue gun, wire lampshade frame stripped of its fabric, different kinds of moss and clear matte finishing spray.

hen Heather Hanley married her husband, Jared Bock, they moved into the downtown condo she’d previously renovated. They knew from the start it wasn’t going to work out.

Not the marriage—the condo. It was whimsical and quirky, and “there was a lot of pink in it,” Hanley says.

“He just really felt like it wasn’t his space, and it wasn’t—it was very much me.” They looked for a new place where they could merge their styles and their desire for more square footage. Hanley had her eye out for “a late ‘70s/early ‘80s kind of rancher.

That’s when the floor plans started really opening up.”

“I had seen some cool remodels that people had done on otherwise unattractive homes and turned them into masterpieces.”

It’s no surprise that Hanley was eager to take on another renovation— as the creative director and third generation owner of The Tin Roof furniture showroom and design center, design and décor are on her mind every day.

In 2014, the couple purchased a late ‘70s home on the South Hill that had never been renovated. The owner “loved what she had done with it and she did a great job,” says Hanley. “She was very meticulous and very clean. So everything was pristine—but it was pristine 1979.” There were partial walls breaking up the rooms and a bold mix of color. “There was orange and there was green and a little bit of peach.”

“It took me a good year to figure out how to move the walls around to get the spaces I needed,” she says. “The process was difficult.”

They renovated just about everything, going for “a California casual kind of look—with a little bit of a modern glam feel. The only thing we didn’t touch was the fireplace. And the beams,” Hanley explains.

The fireplace was a jumping-off point. “I love rocks. As a child I was the kid not playing soccer because I was too busy playing with the rocks on the field,” she says. “I actually based the whole color palette of the house off the colors that I found in the rockwork … kind of a pale, pale

Hanley played with tone and texture, mixing natural elements—like rock and wood—with textural décor and finishes like touches of black,

dimensional tile, a tufted leather sofa, and sculptural light fixtures. There are layered patterns, with mixes of tile shapes like hex and subway, brought together in cohesive color palettes. Modern glam is emphasized in materials including Lucite and brass, which are combined in the kitchen barstools that were customer returns from The Tin Roof.

The kitchen is one of Hanley’s favorite spots in the home. She loves the island front, which features scrolled-in brass bars on painted wood, showcased with underlighting. “I’m really proud of myself because it was an original thought I didn’t copy from anyone else,” she explains with a laugh. The 178-inch island has a quartz countertop, and the pale gray Shakerstyle cabinets are accented with brass hardware from Spokane Hardware. The handmade dimensional tile backsplash is from Sonoma County.

The repeated use of black also adds depth and dimension to the home. “I know it’s super on trend right now, but I’ve always liked black,” says Hanley. “A lot of the detail of design comes from contrast. I like the contrast you get when you use black. It makes everything look better—you put a black chair up to a wood grain and it makes the grain pop. It makes it much more interesting.”

A savvy shopper, Hanley sourced elements everywhere from The Tin Roof to vintage shops to closeout sales to previous remodeling projects. Take, for instance, the gorgeous bathroom vanity, which is actually a buffet she found at a vintage store across the street from The Tin Roof. She wanted to buy it, but didn’t know how to use the piece. Then the thought occurred: “Oh! I’ll make it into a vanity!” she says. It came with small drawers and required no refinishing—just a bit of imagination to envision it in a bathroom, rather than a dining room.

The antique clawfoot tub in another bathroom was repurposed from a downtown building project.

The black-and-white tile floor plays nicely against the shiny brass hardware, the botanical wallpaper, and the wainscoting Bock put in.

Part of Hanley’s reimagining of the home’s floorplan involved moving the laundry room into the master bedroom closet, which allowed for the creation of a mudroom. Hanley repurposed cabinets from elsewhere in the home, sanding and repainting

Expert advice on spring projects to make your y a r d a n d l a n d s c a p i n g s u m m e r- r e a d y

by Darin Burt

Snow has melted and you can finally see your yard again.

Whether you have visions of family barbecues or just being able to relax in your private urban oasis, it’s time to start prepping your landscaping and outdoor living spaces for summer fun.

Whether you live on acreage out on the prairie or a planned community with limited yard space, the advice of Kathy Swehla, senior designer with Land Expressions, is to make the most of what you’ve got.

“You paid for every square foot; get the most out of it. Whether you want activities or only a beautiful view, your landscape will be a wonderful benefit to you every day of the

104

BOZZIMEDIA.com / MARCH 2020

year if it is designed thoughtfully and intelligently,” Swehla says.

“If you are going to invest in your landscape, get a second pair of eyes to look at your land with you: a landscape architect or designer, a consultant or even a friend,” Swehla says. “They will see it in a fresh way, suggesting opportunities that the homeowner, being used to the space, will overlook.”

Few yards are perfectly flat. Most have slopes going this way and that way. A retaining wall can be an attractive solution to leveling the playing field, according to Dan Kinney, general manager of Rock Placing Company (RPC). Retaining walls protect against erosion and create flat

105

THE NEST/homestyles

spaces in your yard that give you more outdoor living possibilities. Along with more usable space for planting trees, flowers, and shrubs, you’ll also have more flat ground that’s perfect for kids’ play areas and get-togethers.

Once you have the perfect space for it, Kinney suggests using brick, concrete or natural stone to create a patio. More and more people are moving their living rooms outside, and patios have become an open-air retreat where you can relax in privacy or entertain guests. No living room is complete without a fireplace—and nothing adds to a summer patio party like 106

BOZZIMEDIA.com / MARCH 2020

a cozy outdoor fireplace or pit.

“It becomes a focal point of your landscape,” Kinney says. “The nice thing about Spokane is that you already have nature near your back door, so the rock patio and fireplace blend right in.”

What would be more entertaining in an outdoor living space than being able to listen to your favorite tunes? Outdoor audio systems are becoming a popular trend according to Kelly Mathison, owner of Legacy Landscapes.

“There have been a handful of clients who’ve told me I’m crazy and they would rather listen to nature,” Mathison says. “But music adds a dimension that words can’t describe.”

Modern outdoor speakers are designed to withstand the elements and are disguised to resemble rocks and landscape lights—you can also have hidden subwoofers that amp up the bass. A properly designed and installed outdoor audio system delivers loud, even outdoor sound that won’t disturb the neighbors because the sound is directed at toward your home, and not theirs.

“I have two of these systems at my house, and as a test, I cranked them up obnoxiously loud,” Mathison says.

“I went over to my neighbor’s house and you could barely hear a thing.”

If there’s one thing on which these landscape specialists agree, whether your projects are large or small, now’s the time to start planning to make your outdoor living space a place you will enjoy.

WOMAN/listen to your mother

ltym

by Anonymous for Listen to Your Mother

A Letter to my Darling Daughter My dear sweet girl, Last night I tucked you in, kissed you goodnight, declared my love for you, and left your room. I hadn't gotten more than 10ft away when I heard you sobbing and calling out for me.

I rushed back to you, and you told me, for the third night in a row, that you were scared of the monster. I pulled out the magic homemade monster spray and sprayed it on your pillow. That was all it took to calm you. We cuddled for a while, I talked of princesses and unicorns, you fell asleep and I sat there sobbing.

120

BOZZIMEDIA.com / MARCH 2020

You see, my sweet girl, I am more afraid of the monster than you are. I know what a monster can really do and how much hurt and fear he can actually cause. I know this because I grew up with one.

When I was 3 years old, the monster held me over a railing, upside down by my feet.

He had been drinking all day and was yelling at my mum. She was pleading with him not to let go and send me falling down to the floor 12 feet below. He told her he was going to. Fortunately, he changed his mind and I was spared that day.

My father drank every day. Some days he drank until he was merry, almost funny.

Other days he drank until he was a dark, terrifying, abusive monster.

One evening, the monster started drinking during bath time. I was certain he had forgotten that my younger sister and I were in the bath. She pooped in the tub. I knew this would lead to me getting a beating and I was petrified for the both of us. She was 2 years old—just a baby. I was the older one; the responsible one. I was a whole 6 years old. I scooped the poop from the tub with my bare hands and was about to put it in the toilet when the monster came crashing through the door. He saw me standing there, naked and dripping wet with poop in my hands. His eyes flashed with hatred and his expression was full of disgust.

He didn't say anything; he didn't have to.

His fists did all the talking for him.

One night, I awoke to muffled screams.

Someone was calling my name and screaming for help. I rubbed my eyes, checked on my sister and realized it was mother. Rushing to her bedroom I opened the door. There she was, thrashing around with the monster on top of her holding a pillow over her face. I knew I had to get help. I ran down the stairs and reached for the handset and as I did the monster picked me up by the back of my hair. He threw me across the room like a piece of trash. The beating came hard that night, and at 7 years

of age, I started to believe I deserved it.

As a child, believing that a parent hates you is distressing. Knowing by their actions that a parent hates you is heartbreaking.

Even in a sober haze, the monster was never remorseful for his actions.

By age 10, my sole objective was to protect your auntie from this monster. As he sat on the stairs one sunny afternoon, lining up and polishing his knife collection, he asked us both to “pick one.”

I asked him what we were using them for.

With depravity in his eyes and menace in his voice, he simply replied “you will see.”

That afternoon was the most terrifying of my life. I was so sure he was about to do the unthinkable and I was about to do whatever I could to keep your aunt and I alive. He walked us into a wooded area, I held my sister’s hand as tight as I could as he ordered us to stop. I looked around— could we make a run for it? She was so young—I didn't think she could run that fast. As he circled around us, sipping from his hip flask, I gave up. There was nothing my 10 year old self could do to save us; no one could save us.

I have no idea what changed the monster's mind that afternoon or why he didn’t kill us.

The monster continued to terrorize us over the years that followed, Many arrests would follow. Eventually the booze got the better of him and the monster would be erased from my waking life completely, but never from my dreams.

As you lie sleeping, dreaming of the beautiful unicorns and princesses, my darling girl, I know the only monster you will ever fear is the one you are convinced is under your bed. The one that I can erase with a puff of monster spray and talk of sparkles and magic. You will never know of the monster I knew growing up. I will make sure of that.

I’m professionally trained for Potty, Sit, Place, Kennel, and Stay.

I’m a great candidate for Service, PTSD, Therapy, ESA!

Hard

is for Rocks

122

BOZZIMEDIA.com / MARCH 2020

I am not a subscriber to the narrative that parenting and being a mom is hard.

Here’s the thing—and hopefully this lands with intentions of community— it’s not hard.

Hard is a linguistic construct that puts our mindset into overdrive to overcome what is in front of us.

Hard work.

Hard conversations.

Hard situations.

Those statements convey an air of difficulty which precedes and erroneously predicts the amount of effort required to take on the task or situation.

Parenting, being a mom, dad or a non-binary caregiver—I don’t care what it’s called—requires an attitude of grace, gratitude and faith. When we give our attention to something that is where our efforts and reactions go. When we resist something the laws of physics have them push back at us and persist.

When we walk into undeniable parenting chaos with a mindset that it is something to endure, something to fight and something to struggle against, imagine what shows up for us. It shows up as hard, difficult, terrible, and even, “what was I thinking, I can’t do this.”

It’s not hard, and the climate in the mom heart when a child gets so deeply hurt that world on social media adds fuel to that little you realize you won’t be able to protect flame. The flame that burns in the chest of them forever. new mothers, feeling alone and abandoned, Hard is for rocks.

Parenthood and the love of this middle space isn’t that easy either. The a parent for their child isn’t rigid and that embers of the teenage year parents, striving feeling of all-encompassing love coupled to come up for air amidst the hormones with frustration when they won’t buckle and full calendars and impending grief of their seatbelt—that’s not something that the empty nest.

The Surprising

SINUS-YEAST Connection

Do you have a stuffy nose? Or a cough that’s worse at night? Suffer sore throat or ear pain? If so, you may have chronic sinusitis (inflamed sinuses).

Thirty-two million people experience this kind of persistent sinus infection. Pain (in the forehead, upper jaw, or teeth, or around your cheeks, eyes, or nose), postnasal drip, bad breath, fatigue or irritability, dizziness, and even nausea can also signal chronic sinus inflammation.

Commonly prescribed for a sinus infection, antibiotics can turn temporary pain to a chronic problem. That’s because sinus inflammation often stems from biofilms (clumps of pathogens implicated in 80 percent of infections)—and oral antibiotics don’t work against them.

124

BOZZIMEDIA.com / MARCH 2020

Producing a slimy coating that’s hard to penetrate, Candida albicans is a notorious— and difficult to eradicate—source of fungal biofilms in the body. Because antibiotic drugs kill off both good and bad bacteria, they create an internal environment where Candida yeast, which occurs naturally in the human body, quickly grows out of control.

Antibiotics can also disrupt the body’s natural pH balance. Without a healthy acid

balance, immunity is compromised, allowing yeasts, molds, and harmful bacteria to multiply.

One in three American women have symptoms of candidiasis, a chronic yeast infection. Besides nasal congestion and sinus pain, yeast infections cause fatigue, indigestion, acne and skin rashes, sore or bleeding gums, thrush (white patches in the mouth or throat), and urinary or vaginal problems.

Candida yeast overgrowth is prevalent in women who use antibiotics—whether to treat a sinus infection or acne—or who have been on estrogen (including birth control pills), have had children, and/or consume a high-sugar diet.

eat more protein (beans, chicken, fish, and lean meat), as well as essential fats and vegetables. Cut out sugar and high-glycemic carbs, especially grains that contain yeast or molds.

Fungi produce more than 300 types of dangerous mycotoxins on foods.

Grains pose the most frequent and serious risk for fungal contamination.

So people with yeast infections need to limit their consumption of corn, wheat, and peanuts—all subject to fungal contamination.

Research in South Korea finds that pumpkin skins contain a potent antifungal protein that combats yeast infections, including candida. Known as Pr-2, this substance in pumpkin rinds also blocks fungi that attack plant crops.

Caprylic acid, found in coconut oil, is an effective antifungal in the digestive tract. It works as well in tamping down yeast overgrowth as the drug nystatin, which may damage

More effective than antibiotics, salt can prevent sinus problems in the first place.

Combine half teaspoon of non-iodized salt (or half teaspoon salt and half teaspoon baking soda) in a cup of lukewarm water and use this mixture in a sterile eyedropper or neti pot.

Rinse your nasal passages twice a day until the infection clears—or whenever you feel sinus pain starting up again. If your throat is sore too, gargle with warm salt water.

Many aromatherapy oils—eucalyptus, oregano, tea tree, and thyme—are antifungal. Use one of these healing essential oils in a room diffuser or add a few drops to your bath water—the steam will help keep your sinuses clear.

traditional St. Patrick's Day dinner—but they are fans of macaroni and cheese. I got the inspiration for this recipe from a couple of Irish dishes like potato and leek soup, Irish beer cheese, and colcannon, which is similar to mashed potatoes with kale and lots of cream and butter. Add some noodles and a touch of bacon, and boom: happy kids.

• 1/2 lb. thick sliced bacon • 1 medium leek, thinly sliced • 1/2 head small cabbage, thinly sliced • 2 baking potatoes • 2 tablespoon butter • 1 tablespoon bacon fat • 1/4 cup flour • 16 oz Irish beer (if a sip or two is missing, it's ok) • 2 cups milk • 2 cups Irish cheddar • 1/2 teaspoon nutmeg • 1 pound macaroni • 1/2 cup bread crumbs • Salt and pepper to taste • Chives, thinly sliced

While the roux is cooking in another pot, warm (but don't boil) milk and nutmeg.

Slowly add the milk one ladle at a time, whisking into the roux until all the milk is added.

Instructions

Place the macaroni and cheese into either buttered individual soup bowls or a casserole dish. Top the noodles with the bacon, then cheese. In a small bowl, toss bread crumbs with either a couple of teaspoons of remaining bacon fat (or oil) then sprinkle on top of the cheese. Place the macaroni and cheese under the broiler until the cheese is melty and the bread crumbs are browned. Garnish with chives and serve.

In a big pot, slowly bring salted water and potatoes to a boil and cook until fork-tender.

Set potatoes aside to cool. Boil the noodles in the same pot once the potatoes are out.

Before draining the water, keep about 2 cups and set aside. Drain and allow noodles to cool. Cut the bacon into small pieces, cook until brown and crisp in a medium-sized pot; set aside and save the rendered fat for later.

In the pot the bacon was cooked in, add back a couple of teaspoons of bacon fat, the leeks, the cabbage, and half the beer (remember to scrape the brown bits off the bottom), place a lid on the pot and allow to braise until tender. Remove lid and cook away any remaining liquid and remove from pot.

Make a bechamel in the pot from the cabbage—add in butter, bacon fat and flour.

The roux should look like wet sand. Cook for five minutes so the raw flour taste is cooked out but not browned. Add in the remaining beer and cook until the smell of beer has cooked away.

Whisk half of the cheese into the sauce until melted, then add the cabbage mixture to the sauce.

In a large bowl (or the pot you used to boil the potatoes and noodles) fold the cheese sauce into the noodles. If the sauce is too thick to cover the noodles, thin it out with the reserved water.

Note: You could make this ahead of time or freeze for later. To reheat, instead of broiling, bake the macaroni and cheese until the center is warmed and the top is bubbly and browned.

March is a month of transition.

Out with the rigid blustery cold and in with the warm showers of Spring. A time where we gather with friends to cheer for our Zags in the NCAA Tournament, beware the Ides (whatever that means) and most importantly... celebrate a beloved Irish patron Saint named Patrick. I've never found a four-leaf clover, but my family is Irish, and there are ruins of a Kilduff Castle in Ireland right outside a little town called Limerick. I might not be able to visit Limerick any time soon but I love food and happen to be a decent writer, so: There once was foodie who wrote reviews Who would choose the dishes he chewed He made it abundantly clear

March should feature green beer

But the boss demanded that he do beef stew

Shawn O'Donnell's American Grill & Irish Pub

719 N. Monroe St. The popular Seattle Irish-American eatery has bounced onto the Spokane scene just in time for St. Paddy's Day. They brought boxty cakes and Bushmill’s, but, more importantly, they've cemented a savory Guinness beef stew worth selling your bagpipes for. Luckily, this Kobe Beef concoction of carrots, parsnips, celery and onion is only $10 on their lunch menu. It even boasts an adorable puff pastry shamrock for good luck.

BOZZIMEDIA.com / MARCH 2020

Republic Pi

611 E 30th Ave. A pizzeria isn't the first place that comes to mind for a decadent beef stew, but Republic Pi has made a name for itself by breaking the rules. They already put toppings like Brussels sprouts and garbanzo beans on pizza, why not serve up an iconic Irish stew on an all-Italian menu?

Chunks of potato, carrot and steak swimming in a thickened beef broth makes for the perfect warm up on a Tuesday when they offer any pizza on their menu for only $12.

O’Doherty's Irish Grille

525 W. Spokane Falls Blvd My dad did the original mural inside of the Downtown O’Doherty's, so I spent my share of Sundays seeing shamrocks and watching patrons sing on the bartop. Looking back as an adult, I wish I would have known how great their Irish Beef Stew was.

A unique blend of spices and the addition of sausage makes this really stand out. Throw in some of O'Doherty's famous honey cornbread and you have the perfect rainy day meal.

Spencer's Steak and Chops

Conley's Place

12622 E. Sprague Ave. John Conley was 19 years old when he opened White Elephant in 1951. More than 70 years later, his family still owns and operates the iconic department store. In 1992, Jennifer and Ed Conley decided to add some of their own personal Irish heritage into a restaurant next door. A trademark menu item has always been the Irish recipe straight from County Clare: a thick Guinness stew served in a sourdough bread boule.

322 N. Spokane Falls Ct. When you're serving aged, hand-cut prime grade steaks, I guess it's a no-brainer that the beef stew should be out-of-thisworld. Chef Cody Geurin, who previously was the executive chef at Clover, has brought new life to one of Spokane's most iconic steakhouses. Nestled inside the downtown DoubleTree Hotel, Spencer's offers this hearty stew that has more business being a meal than an addition to your entree. The difference maker in this bowl is the soul healing gravy, an intense umami flavor you only get from slow-cooked marrow.

In the Inland Northwest, it

isn’t rare to hear of a couple of beer connoisseurs deciding to quit their day jobs to kickstart a brewing operation. In the last year, greater Spokane has seen a surge of more than 10 new breweries— the most ambitious of them being Matt Goodwin and 4 Degrees Real Estate co-founder Jordan Tampien's West Spokane brewery and taproom, Brick West Brewing Co. Goodwin, a wellknown local restaurateur who owns Press, Volstead Act, Backyard Public House, Remedy and recently purchased the Checkerboard, has had his mind set on making the jump into the beer world for a while. With a vast background in operations and long-standing relationships with vendors, Brick West aims to have the best beer and the personnel to drive it.

Goodwin first reached out to Head Brewer Sam Milne, who in the previous few years completed a beer scholarship that took him to two of the most

Goodwin also snatched up additional top notch beer talent. Brian Carpenter, who most anyone who has consumed a beer around town knows as “Fro,” will be focused as the general manager. With his tenured background in distribution, Fro is probably the reason you've seen his ex-employers’ (No-Li Brewing and One Tree Cider) beverages all over town. Once the dust settles, Fro has big plans for how Brick West beer will be fresh and cold at a bar near you. Brick West was lucky enough to land Chef Hailey Bell, who came from the South Hill's Perry Street Brewing, to run the kitchen. So far, there is a selection of sausages from Sonnenberg's, Hill Meats, Carlton Farms and everything from garlic herb cream cheese to a house-made sriracha sauce to top them with.

CLARKSVILLE/monsters of rock

by Doug Clark

Doug Clark's first band The People Upstairs: From L to R: Gary Wilson, Doug Clark, Rick Remsing

Just Another Night with the Band Spokane, it appears, will host another Monsters of Rock, and I’m as excited as a

missionary with a new position.

I’ve reached that nostalgic stage of life when you spend a lot of time thinking about old friends and how your size 34 Levis used to fit. Any chance to actually relive a piece of the dim dark past is a daydream come true.

For those too young or who were locked in a Turkish hellhole for smuggling hashish, let me explain: The Monsters of Rock was a rolling review of top shelf heavy metal bands that ruptured eardrums across America during Summer 1988.

More to our point, the Monsters invaded Spokane’s Joe Albi stadium on a blistering July day. The show attracted some 30,000 young headbangers who, due to exposure to shredding guitars piped through amplifiers bigger than the Paulsen Building, could communicate only by using varying inflections of the word “dude.”

KID ONE: “Yo, du-ude.”

KID TWO: “Duuuude.”

KID ONE: “Gnarly, dude.”

Anyway, Van Halen (fronted by the ever-effervescent Sammy Hagar) co-headlined the Monsters of Rock along with the Scorpions. Opening acts included Dokken, Kingdom Come and this upstart gang of miscreants called Metallica.

Still rockin’ strong today, Hagar is the force behind Monsters of Rock 2020, which should take place sometime in August. The event will be an explosive sendoff for Joe Albi before we literally blow the shabby relic to smithereens and erect a modern new stadium with better seating and much higher concession prices.

Hagar deserves credit for such a cool and ambitious plan for Spokane, which is still mourning the loss of Expo 74.

If Hagar really wanted to endear himself to Spokane, he’d forget about Monsters of Rock and launch a crusade to hold another world’s fair. We’d give him a freaking medal and the keys to Mayor Nadine’s liquor cabinet.

If it were me, though, I’d go even further back and redo the Great Fire of 1889, when the entire town burned to ashes.

Think about it. Everything great about the Spokane that we now know and love (Bing Crosby, Domini sandwiches, fireproof buildings…) all came after the Great Fire. Don’t get your hopes up, though. I doubt this will happen, mostly because no

Doug Clark is a Spokane native and lead singer/ songwriter for his band, Trailer Park Girls. He recently retired from The Spokesman-Review after writing three columns a week for more than 30 years.

one ever listens to me.

But getting back to Monsters of Rock, school board officials recently helped pave the way by voting to allow sales of alcohol during the show.

Word to the Wise: They did not okay the sales of weed, so, like at every other Spokane concert, pothead music lovers will have to (wink, wink) be creative.

In my mind, however, the biggest sticking point to this whole Monsters idea lies in getting the right performers.

See, from a sheer biological standpoint, staging a reunion of 80s Spandex rockers is tougher than getting belly laughs out of Bernie Sanders.

Think about it. The 1980s saw some wild and crazy times where many big-name rockers would compete against each other for who could perform the most outlandish act of wretched excess.

(HISTORIC NOTE: The trophy goes to Ozzy Osbourne, who actually bit the head off a live bat while entertaining Iowans in Des Moines.)

At 72, Hagar still looks amazingly fit and spry considering the long, loud road he’s traveled.

Like Keith Richards of the Rolling Stones, Hagar is one of the rare seemingly ageless survivors who defies time.

This is not the case for the less genetically fortunate and worn out rockers. For them, looking back at the good old days of the 1980s, must be like a Jurassic era stegosaurus longing for the good ol’ Triassic Period.

Which is why I’m seizing this opportunity to offer my band as a fill-in act for the upcoming Monsters of Rock redux.

Trailer Park Girls has never been ravaged by the debilitating effects of fame, fortune or fans.

Damn it.

Plus, I’ve written and recorded a special song for the event called “Just Another Night with the Band.” It tells the unvarnished truth about what playing in a rock band is really like for average nonfamous dweebs like me.

More on this and how you can actually listen to our finished production a little later.

First, let me flash you back to a pivotal moment in 1988 that took place about a week before the Monsters came to town.

It began with a knock on my front door. On the porch stood a neighbor lady who wanted me

Clark’s humor and general-interest commentaries have won scores of local, state and regional honors along with three awards from the National Society of Newspaper Columnists.

He can be reached at dougclarksville@gmail.com.

to sign a petition to keep the Monsters of Rock from performing here.

According to her, the Monsters were the latest sign of the Apocalypse. They were practitioners of evil, corrupters of youth and symbols of all things vile – like cannibalism, Communism, necrophilia, bestiality, pestilence, intestinal bloat and losing The Crescent department store.

And that was just Metallica.

Van Halen? Whoa. They were Satan in the flesh.

Now I’m a civic-minded taxpayer. I certainly don’t want to support anything that might lower the values of the property that our God-fearing forefathers stole from the Indians.

Looking at my moralist neighbor, however, I knew it was time to take a stand.

In a bold voice I told her, NO, I could not affix my good name to her cause.

“Why?” she asked, looking startled.

“Because,” I told her, “I am a Monster of Rock!”

I meant it, too.

It’s a fantasy shared by practically everyone who’s twanged, sang or thumped in a band. Something inexplicable happens and we start telling ourselves that we’re just one break away from being signed to a huge recording contract.

I blame The Beatles, of course.

From the moment “I Want to Hold Your Hand” came pouring out of my transistor radio, I knew I was destined for rock stardom.

It took several months for my mom, rest her soul, to give in to my whining. One day after school, she drove me downtown to Hoffman Music and bought me a new electric guitar.

A Fender Mustang. Dakota red. White pickguard. I can still smell the intoxicating chemical aroma of the fake orange fur that lined the inside of the gray guitar case.

After a few weeks of lessons, I learned three chords, which qualified me to join a band.

The People Upstairs, we called ourselves.

We weren’t very good, but that didn’t stop us from getting gigs. The high point was playing the winter formal dance at my high school, Joel E. Ferris, in 1967.

I’ll never forget that night. We opened up with a scratchy version of California Dreamin’ and even hit most of the chords.

“All the leaves are brownnnn…”

I was hooked after that, eventually playing on the road with my pal Bob Hoover, forming a cover band called the Spam Tones, and finally Trailer Park Girls, which turned 20 last year.

The other day I went into Dave Cebert’s studio with bandmates Joe Brasch and Jeff Peterson. We recorded my aforementioned song. Read it and supply your own melody.

Or listen to our finished product at soundcloud.com/trailerparkgirls.

-Monsters of Rock, here we come!

-Just Another Night with the Band -It starts like this, You dream about guitars and girls.

You feel a beat, Pounding deep inside your head.

You give your heart, To John and Paul and Kurt and Jimi.

You go to school, But you don’t hear a word that’s said.

Next thing, you’re on your own, Cooped up in a rattle-trap van.

And it’s just another night, Just another night with the band.

-It’s like a gang, Your band against the bloody world.

All for one, Rockin’ out and selling merch.

Don’t give a damn, When the haters say you suck.

Cuz you know you’re great, Plus, you got a great T-shirt.

Crank those amps so loud, Louder than human ears can stand.

And it’s just another night, Just another night with the band.

-And you’re livin’ the dream.

Livin’ the dream.

And you gotta believe, You’re the next big thing.

And you don’t care what they say.

No one will stand in your way.

Cuz you know you were born to play.

Born to play.

Born to play.

-And suddenly, Somebody writes a rave review.

You got a buzz, Packin’ every joint in town.

Sleep till three, Party every night away.

Some label rep, Tells you that he digs your sound.

You’re finally on your way, Till a judge sends your drummer to rehab.

Just another night, Just another night with the band.

-And you’re livin’ the dream.

Livin’ the dream.

And you gotta believe.

You’re the next big thing.

-Here’s how it ends, Playing moldy cover tunes In some sad lounge, To drunks and posers on the make.

It’s all pretend, Delusion is the strongest drug.

But in your heart, You can’t help feelin’ like a fake.

Sometimes you ask yourself, What the hell happened to the plan?

And you’d trade your mortal soul, For just another night.

Trade your soul, For just another night.

Sell your very soul, For just another night with the band.
