f you need some inspiration about the benefits of libraries in modern society, you might start with 2018’s “The Library Book,” by Susan Orlean—named a Top 10 Book of the Year by The Washington Post. The book chronicles the hunt for a suspected arsonist in the wake of the 1986 fire at the Los Angeles Central Library—but also delves into the benefits libraries offer patrons, which go beyond stacks of books. In a review in USA TODAY, writer Chris Woodyard mentions how a portion of the book covers “how libraries are embracing new roles in the information age with computer labs, e-books and services that go far beyond the core mission of lending books. In L.A.’s case, the library is reaching out to immigrants and the poor, including the homeless who increasingly spend their days in public libraries around the nation.” Think of a library and books might be the first things that come to mind. But in this modern era, libraries are repositories of many other types of information. They’re places for those without a computer of their own to access online information or to pay a bill. They’re reference points for new members of a community, or for those not in the know, so they can learn about and access vital public services. Sometimes, learning and accessing vital public services—and other information—comes in the form of a lecture, class or other public meeting. Some in this community would have you believe that “meeting

rooms” don’t fit the definition of the type of service that a library should provide—that the inclusion of more meeting rooms in Deschutes Public Library’s recently released capital plan is not unnecessary—that ideas such as meeting rooms come off like a “fanciful wish list,” not rooted in the reality of what libraries should really be. We heartily disagree. Orlean perhaps said it best when she was quoted in Intelligencer saying libraries could be the “saving grace” of society. Orlean commented that when people said, “I don’t know why you need a library when everything’s online, smart librarians were in place who could say that’s not what it’s all about. It’s about having a center of information, of knowledge. And libraries have done a fantastic job in reimagining themselves.” The Deschutes Public Library’s capital plan does indeed include reimaginings of what a library can and should provide—and we support that. While DPL considers whether to turn to voters with a request for a bond to pay for new and expanded libraries across the system, including libraries in Bend, Redmond and La Pine, they should look for ways to make the plans as cost-effective as possible to make them more palatable to voters. At the same time, they should not shy away from the innovations that modern libraries need in the modern age. Through books, computers, classes and yes, meeting rooms, libraries can make communities more equitable.

MIRROR POND

—Dan Cooper

IN RESPONSE TO, “PARK BOARD TO VOTE TUESDAY ON FUNDING MIRROR POND DREDGING” ON 12/17 Maybe the Park Board could explain why they think MPS owns the land under the pond. Bulletin July13, 2013: McKay land claim hard to prove However, the story has proved difficult to substantiate the more people look into it. A search of Deschutes County Assessors records turned up no evidence that the McKay family owns or pays taxes on land under the Deschutes River. The Bend Park & Recreation District and the city of Bend have not obtained deeds or other documents to back up the McKay familys ownership claims. The Bulletin asked AmeriTitle to prepare a title report on land under Mirror Pond. On Thursday, Chuck Sheffield, a vice president of AmeriTitle, said the company could not provide a clear record of ownership. A COMMUNITY VISION FOR MIRROR POND AND DOWNTOWN BEND

The McKay Trusts ownership of the land beneath Mirror Pond has been verified through a legal review of title research conducted by AmeriTitle in summer, 2013.

I am a simple man who likes to find the simplest solution to a problem by identifying the root issue of the problem and addressing it in the simplest manner, Mirror Pond. Every flowing stream has silt in it that is suspended in the water and flows with it until the water is stopped or slowed. What is responsible for stopping the river? Simple answer: the Pacific Power dam. So, simple solution to who should pay for removing the silt: Pacific Power, their investors, their rate payers. It’s their dam and it’s their dam that is causing the problem. That is if you want to retain Mirror Pond. Long term, permanent simple solution to the problem: remove the dam. Simple way to do that: give someone who knows what they are doing a couple bricks of C-4. That is not really environmentally or politically correct. So tell Pacific Power to take out their dam.

IN RESPONSE TO, “A NEW REPORT HIGHLIGHTS A VISION FOR WILDFIRE PLANNING” ON 12/13 The simple one-size fits all answer to the complex problem is bound to fail. With “spotting” proven to advance the fire more than a mile, a buffer will not significantly halt the spread of the fire. A change in the type of fuel of 30-100 feet as advocated by the NFPA is but one portion of an answer. As “Headwaters Economics” of Montana has shown, the additional cost of making new structures “fire proof” within the threatened areas solves many of the additional problems. Having a structure that is not adding fuel to the fire and reduces the need for first responders to concentrate their efforts on this problem and allows them to concentrate on stopping the fire. Modifying structure already in place costs more and I believe that it will require another answer by society. —Dick Johnson, via Bendsource.com

DEAR POOR PEOPLE Consider this place conquered. Wealthier people than you want to be here now, or at least own here now, so you can’t afford to live here anymore, and that’s just the way it is; that’s just business. The law backs it all up. Leave, or live on the fringe and sell meth to their kids for a living wage.

IN RESPONSE TO, “BAG BAN, A LITANY OF LAUGHABLE ARGUMENTS AGAINST” ON 12/17 It’s so strange to me how resistant people are to change. This is old news in Maui and I promise it is really not a big deal for us, but it can be for the environment. You learn to stash bags in your car doors, purse, or just carry your stuff on occasion. It’s simple and it’s a small step towards reducing the single use plastics we are currently drowning our planet in. —Angela Marshall, via Facebook E.J. Pettinger’s

LETTER OF THE WEEK:

Angela: A person’s level of resistance to change can, according to a number of scholars, also be reflected in their political leanings. Progressives—as also evidenced by the word ‘progressive’—tend to be more receptive to change and to its potential for positive effects on society. Conservatives, on the other hand, tend to resist change— even when the change comes in the form of a reduction in single-use plastic. One day though, history will record that this change is indeed “old news,” and that it was the right move. Come on in for your gift card to Palate!

NEWS Deschutes Recycling

Wasted in Bend

Locals make an effort to minimize food waste

Deschutes Recycling mulches and composts food waste at Knott Landfill in Bend.

magine standing in front of a fridge stocked with produce, dairy, meat, plus dozens of condiment jars. Now take a quarter of that food out and bury it. That might sound ridiculous, yet that’s what happens all across the country: more than one-fourth of the food produced in the U.S. ends up in a landfill. According to ReFED, a national coalition that analyzes the economics of food waste, 62 million tons of food is wasted in the U.S. each year—nearly a pound per person, every day, filling over 20 percent of landfill space. Across Oregon, food waste contributes to an estimated 18 to 26 percent of the waste stream. Timm Schimke, director of solid waste for Deschutes County, suspects Bend sits at the higher end. “Considering the impact of tourism, we probably have more food thrown away than in other communities,” he said. How to reduce food waste? Efforts are growing, locally and nationally, to reduce food loss at every point along the supply system. Food waste on the farm American consumers have high standards for food’s appearance. Twenty percent of the produce farmers grow never reaches the market; an odd shape or blemish is enough to give it a failing grade. Rejected produce also wastes the water and any chemicals used to grow it.

Most often, rejected produce is left to rot or sent to the landfill. Nationwide campaigns such as Imperfect Produce and Ugly Fruit & Veg are working with grocery markets to accept a wider variety, but consumer attitudes hold the key to success. The mission depends on people’s willingness to purchase lessthan-perfect produce. In Central Oregon, the High Desert Food & Farm Alliance tackles the issue through its Grow & Give program, which brings locally grown food to those who need it. HDFFA’s program coordinator, Meiko Lunetta, understands why food is often left in the fields—and also how to save it. “Farmers leave produce behind when they know it will be rejected by buyers,” she explained. “Sometimes they have to move on to the next crop, even when there’s food yet to pick.” HDFFA helps by organizing harvesting events known as gleanings. Gleanings use volunteers to pick what’s left behind after the main harvest. During the 2018 growing season, gleanings happened at 14 local farms. Each brought in about 1,000 pounds of fresh food, then donated to NeighborImpact, a local organization that distributes the produce among food banks and meal sites. Matching supply to demand Once food hits grocery shelves and commercial kitchens, another 25

million tons of food goes into the trash. ReFED identifies two major causes: confusion about “best by…” dates, and a mismatch between food supply and demand. “Sell by” labels rarely mean food is unsafe. Yet grocery stores regularly remove any food approaching the labeled date. One option is to donate excess food where it can be used quickly. Grocery Outlet in Bend brings weekly loads of food to Shepherd’s House shelter. Many other stores connect with NeighborImpact, which claims it’s the largest distributor of donated food in Central Oregon. “In 2018, we diverted over a million pounds of food from the landfill,” said Carly Sanders, NeighborImpact Food Program Director. Trucks make regular pickups at 18 groceries, and distribute through the Brown Bag program in Deschutes, Jefferson and Crook counties. Turning scraps into soil High desert soil lacks organic material, so composting food is a double win. Commercial compost pickup is growing, but the added cost and training are obstacles for many businesses, according to Bend Garbage & Recycling. At home, people can add vegetable scraps to yard debris bins for easy composting. Deschutes County

officials have discussed expanding residential compost to include all food scraps over the next few years, as a possible solution for extending the life of Knott Landfill. Reducing waste at home According to a 2017 report from the Natural Resources Defense Council, the greatest amount of food is wasted at home, in home kitchens. As a wealthy nation, the ability to buy more food can build apathy about discarding it, and Americans throw out $144 billion every year. ReThink Waste, a project of The Environmental Center in Bend, aims to reduce that number. Its online challenge offers a free 4-week series to help users use food more efficiently. Resources for reducing food waste: • Volunteer for a gleaning or donate produce to HDFFA at 541-390-3572 or info@hdffa.org • Locate a Brown Bag site at NeighborImpact.org or call 541-548-2380 • Learn more about ReFED’s reports at refed.com • Sign up for the Rethink Food Challenge at RethinkWasteProject.org • Find commercial composting information at bendgarbage.com and residential composting information at deschutesrecycling.com

Housing affordability. Increased traffic. Brew culture. Bike park love.

If you thought those were items unique to Bend, you’d be wrong. Redmond, Ore., has much of the same culture and some of the same issues of growth and expansion that Bend does—and its population has grown, percentage-wise, faster than Bend over the past 18 years. As 2019 dawns, we’re shedding a light on the rapid growth in Redmond.

“Thoughts of Flight” by local artist Jerry Werner, located at Eastern Y Gateway in Redmond.

Signs of Progress In housing, runway reconstruction and other areas, Redmond continues its rapid expansion Redmond’s population has very nearly doubled since 2000. Population estimates from 2017 put Redmond at 30,011 people in 2017, according to the U.S. Census Bureau—up from 26,212 in 2010, and 15,515 in 2000. continued on facing page...

The study found that social offerings,

openness or “how welcoming the community is to different types of people” and aesthetics or the “physical beauty of the community” were the top driving factors. “I think there are several impact studies that shows what art does for a community and that it is well documented what art brings in economic value to a city,” says Gilmore Hill. “We get compliments all the time, like ‘when we decided to move to Redmond, we wanted to see what kind of art was happening, what was going on in the community in the downtown core area.’” In an effort to showcase more art in Redmond, but without enough funding to purchase multiple pieces of art each year, the committee launched Art Around the Clock in 2011. The program showcases art on loan for a two-year period throughout the city in outdoor spaces, including parks and other public meeting places. Currently, the City of Redmond has 15 pieces of temporary art on display, and in May, members of the Redmond community can vote on the sculpture they like best. The city will purchase the piece with the most votes to keep in the city’s permanent public art collection. The first piece of public art voted “People’s Choice” from the 2011 Art Around the Clock was a beautiful horse sculpture, titled “Sirocco,” which can be found on the corner of 6th Street and Deschutes Avenue. Gilmore Hill says RCAPP plans on coordinating the painting of murals by an Artist-in-Residence in the Redmond Skatepark and the new pump track at the Redmond Bike Park in 2019.

An Expanding Beer Scene The city of 30,000 now boasts seven breweries— eight if you count Silver Moon’s production facility By Chris Miller Avenue. Smith Rock Brewing Company is a small brewery on Northwest 7th Street. It serves rotating taps with choices including IPAs, Scottish ale, chocolate porter, blonde ale, stouts, ambers, a black ale and even German hefeweizen. Smith Rock also makes artisan burgers and sandwiches, along with a host of appetizers and pasta dishes. Traveling south on Sixth Street, you can stop at Kobold Brewing and the Vault Taphouse. The bright building serves many different beers including six IPAs, a red ale, a blonde ale, black ale, Scotch ale and many different styles of stouts and porters. Westside Taco Co. and The Wild Bark serve food for customers to nosh on, or you can grab popcorn or a pretzel from the bar. If a giant patio is your thing, stop by brewery mainstay, Wild Ride Brewing, on 5th Street for one of its many beers. The brewery and taproom look like a giant warehouse, but have comfy patio tables and lots of gas outdoor fireplaces. The tap list is extensive and incudes a red ale, golden ale, amber lager, IPAs, stouts, a peanut butter porter and a wheat beer. Just off the end of the patio sit food carts ranging from The Jerk Kings to Food Fellas. Another mainstay, Cascade Lakes Brewing’s original brewhouse on Southwest 7th Street, has been serving beers since the ‘90s. Its lineup has expanded over the years and includes IPAs, a seasonal salted caramel porter, winter ale and the Blonde Bombshell. Seventh St. has a full bar and pub food—and pizzas to go.

Signs of Progress continued... B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B B Tackling affordable housing Like Bend, housing affordability is a huge issue in Redmond. Redmond, however, faces a higher rate of poverty than Bend, and a far lower overall household income. Some of the contrasts can be demonstrated by the data from the U.S. Census Bureau. City of Redmond City of Bend Poverty rate 16.2% 10.9% Median household income $50,646 $60,563 Median gross rent $948 $1107 Median home value $223,700 $326,000 To tackle issues of housing affordability, the City of Redmond awarded Housing Works a $450,000 Community Block Grant in November, allowing Housing Works to buy a 1.97-acre parcel in Redmond’s MidTown area, where they’ll build 48 residential apartments meant for people earning at or below 80 percent median income. In November, Redmond lost out to

Bend in a new state pilot program aimed at increasing affordable housing stock by allowing annexation of new land into the city’s Urban Growth Boundary. Runway expansion As the region’s population grows, so does the need for expanded airport services. In December, United announced non-stop service from Redmond to Chicago will start in June, making East Coast destinations more accessible. A $10 million expansion of the runway at Roberts Field, the regional airport owned by the City of Redmond, was completed Oct. 29. The project kicked off in February, making the runway 7,006 feet long and 100 feet wide. “This runway reconstruction is one more example of our continued investment in airport infrastructure,” stated Mayor George Endicott in a news release. “The community benefits from a safer, more efficient airport and the economic dividends these investments will yield over the next twenty years.”

Other changes at Roberts Field: Increased parking fees. The daily rate increased from $10 to $15 as of Jan. 1, and the airport has plans to add 300 more spaces. Airport officials say the current parking lot, which has 1,150 spaces, has reached capacity several times. A need for more library services Redmond has just one library—one built for a city of 12,000 people that includes just 18 computers and between 50,000 and 60,000 books. A recent capital plan released by the Deschutes Public Library system—which includes Bend, Redmond and La Pine libraries—stated that Redmond could use a library with two-thirds of increased space. DPL’s plan estimated that a new “high-end” library would cost about $31 million, which would require replacing the current building with a new one. This fall, DPL is expected to decide whether to go out for a county bond to cover expansion and enhancement of services across the library system.

he craft beer craze isn’t lost on Redmond, with new breweries popping up about as fast as they do in Bend. The longtime players are still around—Cascade Lakes Brewing Company’s 7th Street Brew House still gets a robust lunch crowd—and new players are coming in, fast. Initiative Brewing is taking over the old Juniper Bank building on 5th Street. Although it’s still under renovation, the website is up and it looks like Initiative intends to use the old drive-thru as a covered patio. Its yearround taps include a double India Pale Ale, a stout, a Belgian pale ale, an IPA and a session ale. Seasonal taps are on the menu as well. The food menu is standard pub fare with burgers, appetizers and a kid’s menu. Porter Brewing recently opened its doors on the Eastside of Highway 97 on Jackpine Court. Its beers are 100 percent cask-conditioned and are served at 50 degrees. The pub pours a bitter ale, IPA, an Irish ale, porter and stout—all pumped to the handles by beer engines from the United Kingdom. Bad Boys Barbecue serves food for Porter’s customers from its food truck in the parking lot. Geist Beerworks opened its doors this summer and serves “boutique” beers at its brewery as well as sells kegs to restaurants and bars around Central Oregon. During Christmastime it sold Hookers and Blow, a 12.9 percent alcohol by volume Russian Imperial Stout in limited quantities and Peppermint Daddy Stout. Geist is located near the Redmond Municipal Airport on Southeast Umatilla

Watching the Night Channels “03” is just the beginning By Isaac Biehl 13

submitted

VOLUME 23 ISSUE 01 / JANUARY 3, 2019 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

bunch of dudes jamming out in the wilderness just feels like Bend, doesn’t it? And that’s exactly what local band Night Channels did with its debut single’s music video. In the video for “03,” you’ll find Night Channels deep in the brush, on the roof and generally looking cool while shredding on guitar in front of towering trees. The video, shot by Bend’s 12th Street Media, takes place at Shevlin Park. And the roof? That belongs to the Domino Room. “Just a day,” says lead vocalist Joey Vaughn about the shooting process. “We did an afternoon shoot at Shevlin, and then we broke for lunch. Then we went right back to Domino Room because the sun was setting.” That’s when they captured the video’s final shot.

“We were pretty fortunate that we found friendships out of a random Craigslist meet.”

—JOEY VAUGHN,

LEAD VOCALIST OF NIGHT CHANNELS

Night Channels is built as a five-piece. You have Alex Montoya on drums (who fondly remembers hauling up his drum kit to the roof for the video shoot), Josh Ryan and Colton Hemenway on guitar and Mason Engman on bass. When I asked how they all met up, both Montoya and Vaughn beamed. “It’s kind of the same for me, Alex and Josh,” says Vaughn. “We all were like 'Hey, I want to do some music stuff.' So we [each] went on Craigslist, found an ad, and that’s it. We were pretty fortunate that we found friendships out of a random Craigslist meet.” The “03” video starts off pretty mellow, but around the two-and-a half minute mark it absolutely explodes. It was an intentional move, as the guys wanted to leave the listener with a powerful outtro. They definitely succeeded in leaving a memorable impression, which is ultimately the goal for a young band making their way through the local scene.

Starting at $2 per gram, best prices in Oregon. Hush shatter $13 per gram

Night Channels is the next local band to watch out for.

Following the release of “03,” the guys are preparing to drop a lot more music. They’re currently mastering two tracks, one of which might come with another music video that Night Channels is very excited for. The video will have more of a narrative, or as Montoya emphasized, “more emotion.” Of course, following the singles will eventually be the debut album, and possibly a tour to go along with it. To get more acquainted with what Night Channels is bringing to the table, you can catch them opening at the Domino Room Jan. 10. That might be their last show for a while as they begin prepping for the album, so you don’t want to be the one catching up while your friend is playing all the sweet local jams.

Central Oregon comedy scene on the rise By Keely Damara

“If I was in Portland to start comedy, I would want to move here to get good.” —COLE ROBESON “If I was in Portland to start comedy, I would want to move here to get good,” says local up-and-comer Cole Robeson. “Here you can practice as much as you want. I can get on a mic five times a week if I wanted to.” Robeson just started performing stand-up comedy in January of last year, hitting as many open mics as he could in his first few months to hone his material. His style: a lot of one-liners with play on words, a-la Mitch Hedberg with the wry, droll candor of Norm McDonald. According to local comedy host Katy Ipock, Robeson is the best comedian to come out of 2018. Ipock, new to the scene herself just Comedy Open Mic

three years ago, started the company Ipockolyptic Productions, which hosts a weekly comedy open mic and local comedy showcases twice a month. When asked who the best local comedian in Central Oregon is right now — both Robeson and Ipock reply without hesitation: Cody Parr. Cody Parr, a working comedian with a few film credits from his time living in Los Angeles, created Beertown Comedy, which regularly hosts local comic showcases in Bend. “I have never been shy about saying that Cody Parr is the best comedian we have in Central Oregon right now,” says Ipock. “He would disagree with me, but I have never seen him have a bad set. A bad set for Cody Parr is still a good set for the rest of us. He’s just phenomenal.” If you’ve thrown around the idea of testing your own comedy chops, or are just looking for some solid laughs, check out Ipock’s weekly open mic at Craft Kitchen and Brewery or Bend Comedy’s weekly open mic at Seven Nightclub.

Sheila Dunn, Painter “The one thing that has been exciting in the last year is collaborations and getting to know other artists in the community. I’m planning some exciting things with other artists, so I think just the artistic community collaborating and getting to know and support each other. That’s what I’d like to see. And some more affordable spaces like The Workhouse, for artists to work in.” Sweet Pea Cole, Graphic Designer “I’d really like to see the project spearheaded by Kaycee Anseth for the Franklin underpass come to fruition with beautification, safer pedestrian and bicycle access with light and beauty.

By Teafly Peterson people to walk through our city and ride their bikes safely through our city.” Jacob Norris, Painter “I would like to see an art share. Where a number of artists come together to create a body of work where we can have a number of businesses host it to share our artwork. So each month we could swap art in a number of different spaces. As artists it would come into our court to change the art and help businesses out where they don’t always want to do that work. We would benefit and have a monthly income. And also we can advocate (for) each other. I just see there are a number of artists in town that have bigger works, but people don’t always want to make that investment, but they love them. So, it’s a way to have those bigger works move and then businesses get to enjoy them and we get to promote our work.” Leah Napoli, Dancer and Performance Artist “Next year, I would like to see more performance art. And personally, I would like to see more performance art in public places for free.”

Pat Clark, Printmaker “I am so encouraged about the artists I have been in touch with the last month or two about the positiveness of going ahead and working together more. That has been what I have noticed and I hope we can continue to do that— more collaboration to conquer the dis-spiritedness we have felt in the past.” Heather Crank, Animator and Designer “I would like to see a performing art center donated. I would like to see more experimental work that kind of pushes the envelope out of traditional mediums. I have seen some of that happening with Christian Brown’s show At Liberty—he was pushing so many art forms. Also, Kiel Fletcher has some interesting shows at OSU pushing film and animation and motion. Bill Cravis’s exhibition at COCC was great! I would like to see more of that—more dance and installation.” Greg Ahmanti, MultiMedia artist “To divert some of the people along the I-5 corridor to Bend, Oregon musicwise. More improv, avant-garde music, not pop, not rock. More interesting acts. Not necessarily off the grid that would

freak people out. But more interesting acts that don’t get to come to Les Schwab in the summer. And maybe a small modern museum. There is nothing really between us and the Bay area and we could use that.” Abney Wallace, mixed-media and sculpture “I would like to see more venues for showing art but also I would like to see more of the general public coming out to support the arts. You can’t ask the public to coment more when there is nowhere to go. It seems mostly artists and friends of artists come out and not the general public.” Amy Castano, Photographer “I’d love to see artists coming together with other artists to help each other out and learn from each other. I would also love to see more collaborations between artists!”

If community members want to donate, they can buy the items and bring them to COVO. Volunteering: In late spring What If We Could will be doing landscape work at a property managed by COVO. This will be a one-day opportunity allowing people to donate time and hard work instead of a product. Monetary donations: Each organization identifies a project costing $2,500 or less, and money donated through What If We Could goes directly to the project. Donations are not capped if the project reaches its target, but any money donated beyond the specified amount could be used for other projects. The donation drive for COVO will go toward new tires and brakes for the vans the nonprofit uses to transport veterans. The model helps break down giving back to the community into more bitesized pieces. “I’ve noticed that people, millennials

What If We Could acts as a facilitator or a platform—which means that all money donated through them will go directly to the nonprofit they are working with. Fairbrother meets with each nonprofit to help them decide what they need to be successful in serving their recipients and how each campaign will do that. “My goal for 2019 is to see every campaign fully funded,” Fairbrother said. “The more long-term goal is to bring What If We Could to other cities outside of Central Oregon. I want to activate citizens toward projects all year, not just end-of-year giving.” What If We Could will also work with businesses to provide more exposure to specific nonprofits by posting a flyer for one week a month about what they do and how people can help. Businesses can also choose to help out a specific nonprofit by sponsoring them. Fairbrother worked in marketing for

Rys Fairbrother is trying to make the process easier for people Central Oregon through his organization, What If We Could. His one-man operation partners with nonprofits in Central Oregon to help them be more successful. “I thought ‘what if we could’ not just raise money but give people a better idea of who these nonprofits are?” he explains. “Executive Directors are pulled in so many different directions, so if they have to choose between a 20-person volunteer event or applying for a $50,000 grant, they typically feel like they need to apply for the grant.” To make volunteer and donation opportunities easier for both the people planning them and the people trying to help, What If We Could selects 28 nonprofits and provides three opportunities for each nonprofit throughout the year, in which community members can participate. Each option is different so people can choose to give in the way that works best for them. Fairbrother plans to announce the projects on the 7th of each month.

By Tom Beans, Dudley’s Bookshop Cafe one tying everything together, Powers has written an ecological gut-punch of a novel. More than one customer has called it “life-changing” and I would be hard-pressed to disagree. “There There” by Tommy Orange First-time novelist Orange tells the story of 12 differing personalities who converge at the Big Oakland Powow, each with their own purpose and destiny. This is a raw and vital book that needs to be read. The hype is absolutely legit. “Indian Horse” by Richard Wagamese “Indian Horse” is a damn fine novel deserving of a wide-ranging audience.

The heartbreaking story of Saul Indian Horse, sent against his will to an Indian boarding school, leaps off the page and lingers long after the final chapter. I could talk about the plot but frankly, it doesn’t matter. Go read it. “Tangerine” by Christine Mangan If Paul Bowles and Patricia Highsmith had a literary love child, it would be Tangerine. Take two estranged college roommates, mix in a Mr. Ripley-esque plot, and drop them in 1950s Morocco. Dark, twisty, and oh so fun.

Pisano’s Named Best Pizzeria in Oregon

By Lisa Sipe

Tumalo restaurant receives a nod based on TripAdvisor reviews

recent USA TODAY article ranked Pisano’s Woodfired Pizza best in Oregon, based on the opinions of TripAdvisor diners. The list was curated by taking “into account the ratio and quality of pizzeria reviews compared to overall ratings, along with quality and quantity of reviews received in the past year (ending September 2018). Featured restaurants have a minimum of 4 out of 5 bubbles, 100 reviews and 10 locations or less as of September.” There are different styles of pizza in the United States, including Chicago deep dish, New York-style thin crust, Detroitstyle thick crust square pizza (the shape originating from using auto industry parts trays as pans) and St. Louis-style cracker thin crust cut into squares—but Pisano’s Woodfired Pizza is none of those. Owner Ed Barbeau makes authentic Neapolitan-style pizza, which he learned from a chef in Naples, Italy. To be an authentic Neapolitan-style pizza, according to The True Neapolitan Pizza Association (Associazione Verace Pizza Napoletana), it needs to be made with ingredients from the Campania region, including San Marzano or Roma tomatoes and buffalo mozzarella. The dough, made from water, salt, yeast and flour, includes special preparation and ferments for a few hours or a few days. Barbeau cold-ferments his dough for 36 hours. The pizza is sparingly covered in toppings because it’s baked in a wood-burning oven. Too many toppings result in either a burned or undercooked pie. “Every ethnic food is better with traditions,” said Barbeau, “and we follow them—with the handling of the dough and the ingredients we can source are as identical as I can make them in the States.”

“Every ethnic food is better with traditions and we follow them—with the handling of the dough and the ingredients we can source are as identical as I can make them in the States.” —ED BARBEAU I ordered two of the simplest pizzas on the menu: the Margherita with crushed San Marzano tomatoes, mozzarella, sea salt, extra virgin olive oil, fresh basil and flaked parmigiano and the Bianco with creamy alfredo sauce, mozzarella, ricotta, roasted garlic, extra virgin olive oil, fresh basil and flaked

Above, Ed Barbeau follows artisan traditions for authentic Neapolitan pizza, including the use of a stone oven with a wood fire.

parmigiano. Both pizzas were small when compared to some of the overthe-top sizes served in Bend, but Neapolitan standards require the pizza to be between 11.8 and 13.77 inches. The tomatoes on the Margherita were tart and sweet and the crust was flavorful with crispy edges and a soft interior. Because the toppings are spare, it was easy to pull an entire piece of mozzarella in one bite and be left with a half-naked slice. That’s why I ordered the simplest pizza; when you get down to tomato and crust there’s no place to hide. The crust has to be delicious. The Bianca pizza was my favorite. The rich cheeses flowed between creamy and tart and the saltiness from the parmigiano intensified all the flavors. If you’re gluten free, you can still order pizza. Barbeau’s wife has Celiac Disease and he spent 10 years developing the dough recipe. This is unique because pizzerias often order frozen gluten-free crusts. Pisano’s is made from scratch; just ask for it. Barbeau was a private investigator for 30 years before opening Pisano’s. He remembered the joy of making pizza when he was younger and had always wanted to open a restaurant.

Pisano’s opened 13 years ago in Northwest Crossing. Barbeau was serving New York-style pizza then because he couldn’t have a wood-fired oven. Now in the Tumalo location, there’s plenty of indoor seating and the patio is popular in the summer. There’s also an outdoor pizza oven on the patio, where Barbeau says he’ll be serving pies come summer. If you visit for lunch Monday through Friday between noon and 3 p.m., order the special—a small pizza and Italian salad for $9. Specialties include house-made cheesecake, and Thursday nights feature fresh lasagna with house-made pasta. Barbeau also offers pizza-making classes Monday nights. The evening includes wine, appetizers, your own pizza and recipes. Classes are $75 per person with a six-person minimum and advance reservation. The best pizzeria in Oregon award is new for Pisano’s, but this isn’t Barbeau’s first award. He frequently competes in pizza competitions, taking first place in 2016 in the Western region and 2018 in the Northwest region for the non-traditional division in the International Pizza Challenge. Barbeau is passionate about pizza, saying, “I love this more than anything I’ve done in my life.”

Visually, the movie dropped my jaw a dozen times and the ridiculous 142-minute running time is packed with so many action set-pieces that it’s hard to complain, but the bat-shit insanity of the ideas on display are what make the film truly with watching. This Aquaman talks to fishes AND the ladies.

Here are five things in “Aquaman” that are unbelievable to witness:

1. ‘80s action movie icon and current direct-to-video action movie icon Dolph Lundgren plays the father of Amber Heard and rides a seahorse into battle. 2. When mid-level villain Black Manta decides to level up his equipment,

he gets a welding montage set to Depeche Mode’s “It’s No Good.” Later, Aquaman and Amber Heard walk out of some water set to PITBULL music!! 3. Julie Andrews voices a giant sea monster. 4. Nicole Kidman scissor-kicks a bunch of mer-people in the face. 5. There’s a romantic scene set inside the mouth of a whale. I mean, I feel like those five things are what we go to the movies for, but that might just be me. “Aquaman” is not a good movie, but it might be a great one, filled to the brim with Wan’s imagination set loose with a bottomless budget. I’ve truly never seen anything like it and, I suppose, that’s what comic book movies are supposed to offer us at the end of the day.

Travis Knight slows down the action and Bay-hem of the franchise proper and allows all of the robot fighting to be clear and visually legible which, in itself, is somewhat of a miracle. Franchise director Michael Bay managed to turn his love of the military, expensive vehicles and massive explosions into a series that grossed close to $5 billion worldwide. Are the movies good? Not really. Entertaining? Sure. But now that Bay has announced

A nice little story of a girl and her robot.

he’s done directing the movies so he can focus more on chilling at the Playboy mansion, it’s time to give some new filmmakers a chance in the sandbox. If you told me I was gonna be excited for a “Transformers” spinoff prequel starring the mute yellow badass Bumblebee, I would’ve said you were smoking the same stuff Bay was while making these movies—but a few things had me a little hyped for this thing. Setting the film in 1987 gives the filmmakers a new texture and color palate to play with. Hailee Steinfeld as the star sounded like a great idea. I guess she’s an annoying

pop star now, but I still remember her holding her own against Jeff Bridges in the “True Grit” remake. The main reason I had faith was the director, Travis Knight. Not only is he the CEO of Portland-based animation studio Laika, but he also directed the animated showstopper “Kubo and the Two Strings.” If anyone could give giant robots talking about crap like “The Matrix of Leadership” some gravitas, it would be Knight and his creative team. For the most part, all the things I was excited for came to pass. Having the story set in 1987 and focusing on a teenage

girl getting a rusty 1967 Volkswagen Beetle as her first car is perfect. Steinfeld carries the movie effortlessly and her interactions with a giant computer-generated robot always feel authentic and, surprisingly, touching. It’s not just some epic action movie about a girl and her robot saving the world, but instead manages to tell an intimate story about a depressed young woman overcoming grief and falling in love with her first car. Travis Knight slows down the action and Bay-hem of the franchise proper and allows all of the robot fighting to be clear and visually legible which, in itself, is nearly miraculous. “Bumblebee” doesn’t have the spectacle of the other films, but it doesn’t need it. The story is smaller, the action is more evenly paced throughout the film and it’s just a nice little movie to take the kids to that won’t make your eyes bleed. Bumblebee

ason Momoa was always seen as an interesting choice to play Aquaman. He’s obviously not the blonde haired, blue-eyed Arthur Curry we’ve been seeing in comic books for over 50 years— which is a nice change from Hollywood’s typical whitewashing habits. He’s also pretty damn masculine compared to the lil’ green codpiece-sporting super friend that talks to fish and gets in lots of love triangles with the underwater ladies. Since Momoa’s Aquaman was introduced in a cameo during the interminable “Batman v. Superman: Dawn of Justice” and then actually introduced in “Justice League,” we’ve already seen him in action, but in “Aquaman” he finally gets to take front and center. In “Justice League,” Momoa seemed like he was doing an impression of Macho Man Randy Savage, complete with “Ohhhh yeahhhhs” and everything. The pro-wrestler-meets-Ed-Hardy/ Aquabro vibe kinda sucked, so “Aquaman” is Momoa’s first real chance to make the character something worth watching. If the movie was directed by a lesser

From Rainshadow to River

It’s pretty uncommon to bring farm-to-table organic meals for a 21-day adventure on the Colorado River. Here’s how one local group achieved it By K.M. Collins

K.M. Collins

To ease the difficulty of food and other logistics, most groups are outfitted by companies near Flagstaff, Ariz. Lawrence’s desire to meld rafting and farming has been distilling since she began her commercial rowing career in the Canyon over a decade ago. Her commitment to eating only what she manifests on the farm was never more evident than at a Nevadan café counter, en route to the put-in. Lawrence had kept a unsecured pint of honey and mason jar of milk nested on the bed of her truck, unabashedly toting them into hotels and restaurants. It was a case of Bring Your Own Milk and Honey. Once the trip was underway, everyday the group feasted on meals including curry, chicken soup, ratatouille, chili verde, empanadas and Sarah’s meaty spaghetti sauce. Burritos filled with beans, beets, pulled pork, hamburger, hearty greens and carrots served as lunch, while breakfast was a mix of oats (not grown at the farm) with a rotating choice of bacon, sausage or ham. The phrase “eating like queens” was an understatement.

VOLUME 23 ISSUE 01 / JANUARY 3, 2019 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

hether on her farm, at market, or on the river, Sarahlee Lawrence, owner/operator/founder of Rainshadow Organics, is perpetually surrounded by an entourage of farm folk, or "farmily" as she coins it. In talking to the interns, apprentices and other Rainshadow contributors, it’s clear they’re committed to the new wave of modern farming—and Lawrence is leading the charge. Recently, Lawrence and her farmily brought their love for fresh veggies, protein and grains (all cultivated on the 200-acre spread Lawrence calls home) to the Colorado River for an early winter, 21-day Grand Canyon rafting trip, during which Lawrence and her cronies grew and prepared 75 percent of the calories consumed on the adventure.

Left, Leftover Dutch oven chocolate cake and savory ham make for a rich and filling breakfast. Right, the “farmily” at the Colorado River Dimond Creek takeout. L-R: Author K.M. Collins, Carly Maher, Aliza Rosenstei, Sarahlee Lawrence, Cailyn Brierley, Kyle McKnelly, Bridget Dahmer and Steven McKnelly.

Homemade food preparation for rafting the Grand Canyon is pretty much unheard of. To ease the difficulty of food and other logistics, most groups are outfitted by companies near Flagstaff, Ariz. Groups show up at Lee’s Ferry put-in, where gear, including rafts and food, has been completely rigged. Outfitters supply elaborate maps and menus denoting the location of each meal, its contents and where it can be found in any number of coolers. Of the five groups the farmily crossed paths with on the Colorado River, none had prepared its own food. One group had grossly underestimated their toilet paper rations. Mid-trip, they traded us s’more fixings for our surplus. Admittedly, in the planning phase, we had overlooked the benefits of chocolate, graham crackers and marshmallow, opting to focus on glorious Dutch oven desserts. To get ready, the farmily spent days of stolen hours before and after their 9-to-5 schedules to cook and freeze meals. Meals were transported from Oregon via Lawrence’s farm rig in chili bins kept cold with ice

blocks and dry ice. Of the recipes, Lawrence commented, “I like the chili verde best. It contains pulled pork, tomatoes and beans, all produced at Rainshadow. We harvest, dry and then shell the beans ourselves, by hand. It was just a wonderful thing to have the farm in the Canyon with us—including our drinks, our breakfast, our lunch, our dinner, even our snacks. Plus, the ease of having food precooked was pretty incredible!” One night while the camp slumbered, Lawrence woke to a smorgasbord being enjoyed by ring-tailed cats in our convertible kitchen. Apparently, they had heard about the quality of food we’d brought all the way from Oregon. Alas, the hatches were battened and they’ll have to wait until our next trip to try for another taste of Sarah’s famous meaty spaghetti sauce or the chili verde. To be continued… Although not yet in circulation, keep your eye out for Rainshadow’s farm-to-table cookbook, available sometime this year.

Where Have All the Insects Gone? By Jim Anderson

’m not a pessimist, at least I try not to be one. But… Early last summer, I noticed something that really bothered me. While driving between Riley and Sisters on a warm, early summer day, I noticed I didn’t have as many smashed insects on the windshield of my 4Runner as I did earlier that spring. The weather and road conditions were right, but the insects just were not there… The first time I made that trip was in September 1951, astraddle my 1947 Harley-Davidson. I mounted a sport shield on the forks of the Harley because beetles and larger insects really hurt when they hit my bare cheek at 70 mph, and back in those days there were more than enough insects to notice. In my younger years I could even hear bees plainly when they smacked on the windshield of my car.

27 VOLUME 23 ISSUE 01 / JANUARY 3, 2019 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

“And when I mention declining insects to some people, their response is, ‘Good Riddance!’ What they haven’t stopped to consider is that the soil-grown food we eat is wholly dependent on insects for pollination.” —SUE ANDERSON But last summer, something was out of whack. “I’m not killing as many butterflies with the 4Runner as I once did,” I said offhand to my pal, fellow butterfly enthusiast and wife, Sue. And she remarked, “Yes, I was noticing that, too. “I think all the insects we do see nowadays are wearing gas masks and carrying red flags that say, ‘HELP!’” Sue mused. “And when I mention declining insects to some people, their response is, ‘Good Riddance!’ What they haven’t stopped to consider is that the soil-grown food we eat is wholly dependent on insects for pollination, and insects in turn are the only food for a myriad of animals. E. O. Wilson has said it many times, ‘Insects are the little things that run the world.’ We need to celebrate, not desecrate, them.” Local retired family doctor Stu Garrett has been concerned about the declining population of our sagegrouse. He’s looked into habitat loss and the possibility of West Nile virus impacting the grouse, but now he’s exploring a possible link between insect loss and bird survival. “The sage-grouse chicks between 0 and 8 weeks need lots of insects and caterpillars or they die,” he notes. When I got home, I drove myself down to two local stores to look over their chemical supplies. In both stores, shelf after shelf, hundreds of gallon cans that contained chemical after chemical, all advertised to kill, kill and kill! It appeared to me there was enough stuff in those stores to kill insects and weeds from Sisters to Prineville. That very afternoon, we received an e-mail from a pal in France telling us how alarmed French entomologists were becoming because of the disappearance of insect pollinators in eastern France and western Germany. A recent article in The Washington Post by Ben Guarino, ‘’’Hyperalarming’ study shows massive insect loss,” states, “In 2014, an international team of biologists estimated that, in the past 35 years, the abundance of invertebrates such as beetles and bees has decreased by 45%. …A study last year showed a 76%

Illustration by Caleb Anderson

decrease in flying insects in the past few decades in German nature preserves.” That sounds like mass extinction… The best man I know who would have an answer is Robert Michael Pyle: writer, author, butterfly expert, insect researcher and founder of the Xerces Society, a Northwest research organization that champions invertebrates. In our last e-mail, this is what he had to say in response to my concerns: “And yes—I agree with you that biocides are definitely one of the major factors leading to insect losses. There are many others, which Xerces has been working to identify and counteract for 47 years as of December 9th! “Habitat alteration, warming and drying with climate change, and intensification of agriculture are high among them—the latter has directly brought about most butterfly declines in the U.K. (see the excellent recent book, The Moth Snowstorm, which details this history). “But the huge chemical load in the environment is surely one of the leading causes of insect populations collapsing. In particular, the neonicotinoid pesticides are to bees and butterflies what organophosphates were to eagles, ospreys, and Rachel Carson’s songbirds. Here is one place to read about this, on the Xerces website: http://xerces.org/neonicotinoids-and-bees. Europe, apparently, is making some progress on banning neonics, but they are everywhere over here. “The recent articles about widespread insect decline have indeed been sobering, and even worse

than we anticipated at the outset of Xerces. Several long-term butterfly monitoring programs are suggesting the same, though not everywhere, yet—we’re still pretty well off in the Cascades. We can only hope it won’t spread and get worse!” When that man stops and listens and watches, believe me, we ALL better listen, watch and DO SOMETHING! My gut feeling is we have saturated our world with chemicals, and insects are setting off the first alarm. No, I’ll take that back. Perhaps the first alarm has been ringing for a long time — all the cancer that’s plaguing our society. Please take all that chemical goop in your garage and shop to the county chemical disposal site and keep it out of circulation. Please don’t use any more for a convenient dose here and there. There are more than enough people growing gardens and flower beds with chemicals to saturate our soils with stuff that kills, kills and kills. Another suggestion: plant a pollinator-attracting garden. Not only will it improve the health of your landscaping, but will also bring a colorful array of butterflies to your yard to delight you and the hungry baby birds. And after you’re through here, open the Xerces Society website, The Xerces Society’s Bee City USA Initiative and follow the links to the Mason Bee. You’ll have a beautiful trip into the world of one of our amazing insects. Maybe you’ll fall in love with them!

Stock market volatility and seasonal slowdowns bring back memories of the prior recession

30 year fixed 4.625-4.75% FHA/VA 4.25% 15 year fixed 4.125-4.25% Inventory typically declines during fall and winter and picks up again in the spring. Even though interest rates may be higher, the increased inventory that

typically starts in the spring will balance out the supply side, exerting pressure in the opposite direction. There were many price reductions this last summer—and much of that was because homes listed in spring and beginning of summer were priced with the expectation that market prices would continue to rise at higher levels. It has been suggested that rather than being indicative of an economic downturn, the lowered prices were simply price corrections by sellers, as sellers typically price homes higher to provide room for negotiation and to keep up with the market growth rates preceding the listing. Our current housing market, while having affordability issues, is basically strong with continued demand expected in the coming new year. The banking regulations put in place during the Great Recession will prevent the housing market from taking down the economy as it did the last round.

he unseasonal market slowdown this summer gave me an eerie feeling similar to what I felt before the last recession, but it’s a much different scenario than it was back then. Many buyers are speculating that prices will drop and that a correction is on the way. Some media sources predict a mild recession, saying that based on prior history, we’re due for one shortly. The most frequent concern is the rise in interest rates, but even after the Federal Reserve raised the funds rate Dec. 19, mortgage rates have remained quite stable. At time of this writing, the rates, according to “Mortgage News Daily,” were:

ASTROLOGY By Rob Brezsny

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): In Canada, it’s illegal to pretend to practice witchcraft. It’s fine to actually do witchcraft, however. With that as our inspiration, I advise you to be rigorous about embodying your authentic self in 2019. Make sure you never lapse into merely imitating who you are or who you used to be. Don’t fall into the trap of caring more about your image than about your actual output. Focus on standing up for what you really mean rather than what you imagine people expect from you. The coming months will be a time when you can summon pure and authoritative expressions of your kaleidoscopic soul.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): In the eighteenth century, Benjamin Franklin was a Founding Father who played a key role in getting the United States up and running. He wasn’t happy that the fledgling nation chose the bald eagle as its animal symbol. The supposedly majestic raptor is lazy, he wrote. It doesn’t hunt for its own food, but steals grub obtained by smaller birds of prey. Furthermore, bald eagles are cowardly, Franklin believed. Even sparrows may intimidate them. With that as our theme, Pisces, I invite you to select a proper creature to be your symbolic ally in 2019. Since you will be building a new system and establishing a fresh power base, you shouldn’t pick a critter that’s merely glamorous. Choose one that excites your ambition and animates your willpower.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): No one has resisted the force of gravity with more focus than businessman Roger Babson (1875–1967). He wrote an essay entitled “Gravity - Our Enemy Number One,” and sought to develop anti-gravity technology. His Gravity Research Foundation gave awards to authentic scientists who advanced the understanding of gravity. If that organization still existed and offered prizes, I’m sure that researchers of the Aries persuasion would win them all in 2019. For your tribe, the coming months should feature lots of escapes from heaviness, including soaring flights and playful levity and lofty epiphanies.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): The night parrots of Australia are so elusive that there was a nearly six-decade stretch when no human saw a single member of the species. But in 2013, after searching for 15 years, photographer John Young spotted one and recorded a 17-second video. Since then, more sightings have occurred. According to my astrological vision, your life in 2019 will feature experiences akin to the story of the night parrot’s reappearance. A major riddle will be at least partially solved. Hidden beauty will materialize. Long-secret phenomena will no longer be secret. A missing link will re-emerge.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Millions of years ago, Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia, Antarctica, and North and South America were smooshed together. Earth had a single land mass, the supercontinent Pangea. Stretching across its breadth was a colossal feature, the Central Pangean Mountains. Eventually, though, Europe and America split apart, making room for the Atlantic Ocean and dividing the Central Pangean range. Today the Scottish Highlands and the Appalachian Mountains are thousands of miles apart, but once upon a time they were joined. In 2019, Gemini, I propose that you

look for metaphorical equivalents in your own life. What disparate parts of your world had the same origin? What elements that are now divided used to be together? Re-establish their connection. Get them back in touch with each other. Be a specialist in cultivating unity.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): 2019 will be an excellent time to swim in unpolluted rivers, utter sacred oaths near beautiful fountains, and enjoy leisurely saunas that help purify your mind and body. You are also likely to attract cosmic favor if you cry more than usual, seek experiences that enhance your emotional intelligence, and ensure that your head respectfully consults with your heart before making decisions. Here’s another way to get on life’s good side: cultivate duties that consistently encourage you to act out of love and joy rather than out of guilt and obligation.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Here are four key questions I hope you’ll meditate on throughout 2019: 1. What is love? 2. What kind of love do you want to receive? 3. What kind of love do you want to give? 4. How could you transform yourself in order to give and receive more of the love you value most? To spur your efforts, I offer you these thoughts from teacher David R. Hawkins: “Love is misunderstood to be an emotion; actually, it is a state of awareness, a way of being in the world, a way of seeing oneself and others.”

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): “Most living things begin in the absence of light,” writes Virgo author Nancy Holder. “The vine is rooted in the earth; the fawn takes form in the womb of the doe.” I’ll remind you that your original gestation also took place in the dark. And I foresee a metaphorically comparable process unfolding for you in 2019. You’ll undergo an incubation period that may feel cloaked and mysterious. That’s just as it should be: the best possible circumstances for the vital new part of your life that will be growing. So be patient. You’ll see the tangible results in 2020.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Many plants that modern Americans regard as weeds were regarded as tasty food by Native Americans. A prime example is the cattail, which grows wild in wetlands. Indigenous people ate the rootstock, stem, leaves, and flower spike. I propose that we use this scenario to serve as a metaphor for some of your potential opportunities in 2019. Things you’ve regarded as useless or irrelevant or inconvenient could be revealed as assets. Be alert for the possibility of such shifts. Here’s advice from Ralph Waldo Emerson: “What is a weed? A plant whose virtues have not yet been discovered.”

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): The slow, gradual, incremental approach will be your magic strategy in 2019. Being persistent and thorough as you take one step at a time will provide you with the power to accomplish wonders. Now and then, you may be tempted to seek dramatic breakthroughs or flashy leaps of faith; and there may indeed be one or two such events mixed in with your steady rhythms. But for the most part, your glory will come through tenacity. Now study this advice from mystic Meister Eckhart: “Wisdom consists in doing the next thing you have to do, doing it with your whole heart, and finding delight in doing it.” SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Sagittarian polymath Piet Hein wrote a poem in which he named the central riddle of his existence. “A bit beyond perception’s reach, / I sometimes believe I see / That life is two locked boxes / Each containing the other’s key.” I propose that we adopt this scenario to symbolize one of the central riddles of your existence. I’ll go further and speculate that in 2019 one of those boxes will open as if through a magical fluke, without a need for the key. This mysterious blessing won’t really be a magical fluke, but rather a stroke of well-deserved and hard-earned luck that is the result of the work you’ve been doing to transform and improve yourself.

Foul Pay

I went out with a feminist who was all into women’s empowerment, but when the bill came, she made no effort to chip in. Please explain this type of feminism. Is it somehow possible that she didn’t notice the check? —Incredulous It is possible that she didn’t notice the check. It’s also possible that she likes to take time off from complaining about paternalistic behaviors to sample the ones that work best for her. While this appears to be a glaring example of self-serving selective feminism, research suggests there’s sometimes a more charitable explanation for absurdly contradictory beliefs and behavior. Though most people believe that there’s a single consistent you (or me) with stable beliefs and preferences, this actually seems to be an illusion. In fact, if there’s one thing that’s consistent about humans, it’s how inconsistent we all tend to be (and—it gets better—how consistent we are in vigorously denying that). Cognitive scientist Colin Martindale theorized back in 1980 that we have a number of “subselves”—sub-personalities with varying beliefs and priorities—that go active or sink into the background depending on the context at hand. In other words, whichever goal is front and center in your mind—like “Fight patriarchal oppression!” or “Take this totally adorbs patriarchal oppressor home to bed!”—drives how you think and behave. Research by neuroscientist Michael Gazzaniga suggests Martindale was right. Gazzaniga’s findings also led him to the conclusion that our mind has a janitor of sorts—a psychological one he calls “The Interpreter”—that tidies up in the wake of our inconsistencies by creating justifications for them. These, in turn, allow us to view ourselves as consistent and rational— instead of laughably hypocritical, like a feminist who, when the check comes, stares skyward, all “Wow! That is one of the most well-preserved examples of the early-’90s popcorn ceiling!” However, again, more charitably, everybody these days is confused about who’s supposed to pay on dates (and when and what it all means). For example, a woman will chip in on the first date because she earns a living, too!—or because the prospect of sex with the dude is akin to “Would madam enjoy her Caesar salad with a light dusting of E. coli?” To suss out where this woman is coming from, you need more information, and to get that, you’ll need further

interaction—on the phone or, even better, in person. (Action reveals character.) Sure, she could be a hypocrite riding the patriarchal free dinner train—or maybe she finds it icky to split the check and figured she’d get the next one. It’s also possible she’ll reciprocate with a home-cooked meal— because you picked a place where the water alone costs $11 and she’s busy completing a dog walking internship while moonlighting as a freelance field hand.

Keeping It Rio This girl I’ve been dating for two months is soon going to Brazil for three months! We aren’t officially committed, so Amy Alkon it seems unfair to ask her to be monogamous. We plan to stay in touch, but I don’t want to hear about her with other dudes, and selfishly, I don’t want to stay home, all celibate like some war bride. —Realistic Or Cracked It’s very considerate of you to suggest three months sexually off leash, as she is traveling to the ancestral homeland of male supermodels, where a chunk of the GNP is dependent on Carnival—a weeklong drinking, samba, and sex fest. The problem is jealousy, one of our guard dog emotions. Evolutionary psychologist David Buss explains that jealousy rises up automatically to help us fend off “potential mate poachers” and prevent a mate from “defecting.” Because it’s set on “auto,” it can be hard to override. That said, though you don’t have a committed relationship with this woman—let alone an “open” one—you might be able to make use of a psychological tactic of people in sexually open relationships. It’s called “compersion”—taking pleasure in your partner’s getting pleasure, even if it’s from some other, uh, provider. Granted, this is probably about as realistic for most people as their Ubering to a party via unicorn. However, it dovetails nicely with my fave quote about love, from sci-fi writer Robert Heinlein: “Love is that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own.” Float the idea of planned cooperative ignorance, and ask her to think on it for a few days. (People often have more reasoned responses to hot-button issues when they aren’t expected to reply pronto.) Also, it doesn’t hurt that she’s the one wintering where stone-sober women are tempted to stop men on the street with “Excuse me, but would you mind if I licked black beans off your ridiculously chiseled abs?”

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): What themes and instruments do people least want to hear in a piece of music? Composer Dave Solder determined that the worst song ever made would contain bagpipes, cowboy music, tubas, advertising jingles, operatic rapping, and children crooning about holidays. Then he collaborated with other musicians to record such a song. I suspect that as you head into 2019, it’ll be helpful to imagine a metaphorically comparable monstrosity: a fantastic mess that sums up all the influences you’d like to avoid. With that as a vivid symbol, you’ll hopefully be inspired to avoid allowing any of it to sneak into your life in the coming months.
