MALHEUR MILITIA STANDOFF (1/14) By standing by and doing nothing in Harney County, the FBI has allowed more guns and more people with guns to settle into the Malheur Wildlife Refuge. They have allowed the militia to come and go as they please, even collect mail in Burns. They have allowed the militia to rummage through federal government files, tear up the landscape, prevent federal workers from going to work, and settle in for an armed conflict with the feds. The feds have hamstrung state and local officials and allowed this to get out of hand. The time to act was Day 2, when they should have blockaded the refuge to prevent anyone from going in and out. They should have cut the power and surrounded the handful of people who were there. The federal government has failed the people of Oregon. Call Rep. Greg Walden at 202-2256730, Sen. Ron Wyden at 202-224-5244, and Sen. Jeff Merkley at 202-224-3753, and demand that the federal government stand up for the overwhelming majority of Oregonians and Harney County residents who want this band of militia misfits arrested and charged with the various crimes they have committed. It is up to the people of Oregon to stand up and take our land back from the Bundyites!

SHOULD BILL CLINTON’S PAST MATTER FOR HILLARY’S CAMPAIGN? I want to address the millennials who will be voting for President this year. You are too young to remember the scandal, but I was there and Bill Clinton lied to Congress and the American people every day for months before finally admitting the Lewinsky affair in the Oval Office. A liberal Democrat friend of mine said, “He only lied about sex, what’s the big deal.” The big deal was that he also lied to the Grand Jury under oath. The politicians impeached him, but the people allowed him to stay in office for no reason I could understand. Then the other women he groped or assaulted came out with their stories. He lied about them too, and his lies are recorded in history. So are Hillary’s. The entire time it was happening, Hillary was out there defending him, lying to everyone about her husband’s infidelities. She said, “I’m not some Tammy Wynette standin’ by her man!” But that’s exactly who she was. So please, don’t believe her when she tells the country, especially you young people, that she’s defended women’s rights all her life. It’s not true. There’s a reason a large percentage of the public doesn’t trust her. You shouldn’t either. —Maralyn Thoma

The Forest Service does an incredible job of managing trails, here and elsewhere. They already have an established policy and it’s called multi-use. Aside from separating motorized vehicles from pedestrians and cyclists, and occasionally equestrian traffic, they expect trail users to apply common sense. And it works. The last thing we need is for some self-serving alarmist to jack up Deschutes National Forest management and staff to develop a specific protocol. They already have it right!

SNOWSHOE VS. FAT BIKING – “AIN’T HAPPENING” (1/21)

LIGHTMETER

VOLUME 20 ISSUE 04 / January 28, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

Enjoyed the article on the Malheur occupation. But in reading the section about the history of Malheur Refuge, I notice one glaring omission: For all the wonderful things that we can say about the Malheur Refuge, how it came into being was not all so wonderful. Much of the land that is the refuge property was ill-gotten through taking people’s ranches under condemnation. A dirty little secret that much of the state knows nothing about. Same with wildlife area in Summer Lake, OR; folks had no choice but to give up ranches and homesteads to the ‘greater good’. Really. Paid for their land, you say. Yep, pennies on the dollar that they had to accept or get nothing. Coerced.

Meissner Snow Parks, or elsewhere. I don’t have a fat bike, wish I could afford one, but I am an avid local mountain biker (along with XC skier and snowshoer) and know lots of people in Bend that fat bike. And, like the vast majority of local riders, they understand, respect, and exercise the IMBA and COTA etiquette and protocols when confronted with pedestrians and equestrians on the trail. That means yielding to virtually every other trail user, period. And I’ve never seen a fat biker on an XC track, ain’t happening.

In its December 31 issue, the Source staff shared the hope that in 2016 “we focus on acceptance…” by, among other things, standing up for religious tolerance and opposing extremism. I agree. Today’s news is filled with

stories of hundreds of people dying each day as a result of armed conflict or terrorism, often arising from religious or ethnic differences. We must learn to see ourselves as members of a single human race and the earth as our common home. One of the biggest challenges to unity is religious intolerance. According to a 2015 report by the nonpartisan Pew Research Center, there are over 1.6 billion Muslims, a little over 23 percent of the world’s population, and this number is rapidly increasing. We owe it to ourselves, family and community to formulate our world view and our opinions about Islam based on knowledge instead of ignorance. I encourage all to join the Interfaith Network of Central Oregon on February 9 at noon when it presents a talk by Dr. Yosef Wanly, Islamic scholar and educator, entitled “Living in Peace: An Islamic Perspective.” It has been said that education is the key that unlocks mysteries and this talk should prove to be very educational.

Step aside and walk on once they pass. We are all out there to suck up the beauty: fresh air, trees and snow. It’s multi-use out there. Don’t be a jerk and we will all have a blast! —Maureen C. Cruse

LETTER OF THE WEEK Maureen – Remembering that everyone is out to enjoy a day in the snow is a great reminder to all to respect the other’s experience.

regonians take pride in the state’s natural beauty, but few of us realize more than one-third of our electricity comes from out-of-state coal plants. According to the Oregon Department of Energy, 37 percent of electricity in Oregon comes from coal. As it stands today, Oregon is an importer of coal power and an exporter of clean energy. The fact that Oregon is relying on outof-state coal (mostly from Wyoming and Montana) for power in a state with abundant clean energy shows how offthe-radar our own coal dependence is. It’s not that we love coal so much that we don’t care about the consequences of carbon pollution. Most Oregonians are simply unaware that their own home or business is powered by out-of-state coal burning. This year, Oregon lawmakers will consider Senate Bill 477 and House Bill 2729, each of which require electric companies to reduce electricity provided from coal to zero on or before Jan. 1, 2025, to customers of electric companies located in this state.

Oregon has enough renewable energy resources in wind and solar to provide electricity to the entire state with enough left over to export to other states, according to the U.S. Department of Energy. Economically, $9 billion of investment has come to Oregon for the wind and solar industries, already

creating 5,000 long-term, well-paying jobs throughout Oregon. Getting off of coal entirely would boost investment in Oregon and provide more jobs here in the renewable energy sector. However, even if Oregon completely ends coal energy consumption, that doesn’t mean the coal plants close down, carbon pollution ends and we get to keep our snowpack. Coal is big business, mined on federal public land and exported globally. Wyoming continues to lobby Pacific Northwest tribes, who helped block exports to China via the Columbia River in 2014. In 2015, Wyoming Gov. Matt Mead signed legislation to finance the construction of coal export terminals in the Pacific Northwest. About 40 percent of the nation’s coal is mined in Wyoming. On a federal level, Oregon’s Senator Ron Wyden is the senior member of the Senate’s Energy and Natural Resources Committee. On Jan. 15, the Interior Department announced it will halt new leases of coal production on federal public lands until further studies have been completed. Oregon Sen. Jeff Merkley is lead sponsor of the Keep It in the Ground Act. If coal burning continues, in just one generation, Oregon’s snowpack, an essential source of drinking water and farm irrigation, will be significantly reduced. The result will be an escalation in wildfires, flooding, air pollution, pests and species extinction. Get off the killer coal now, Oregon; lead the way for the rest of the world.

NEWS Barely Getting By The cost of minimum wage

SIDE NOTES By Corinne Boyer

By Corinne Boyer 7

One native Bendite battling to make ends meet is Aaron Cooper. A few weeks ago, the 25-year-old was offered a full-time job as a dishwasher at Central Oregon Community College (COCC). So far,

$7.25 per hour since July of 2009. Though Oregon’s minimum wage is two dollars per hour higher than the federal minimum wage, neither the state nor federal wage nears the equivalent of a living wage. According to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, a living wage for two adults (one working) and two children in Bend is $23.65 per hour. MIT’s Living Wage study defines a living wage as “an approximate income needed to meet a family’s basic needs.” Last week, the United Way’s ALICE Report brought to light the financial struggle for workers who are categorized as Assets Limited, Income Constrained, Employed. Oregon’s population of 3.9 million makes up 1.5 million households. The United Way study of financial

Raahi Reddy, with University of Oregon’s Labor and Education Research Center, says the general framework of the report shows that wages in Oregon stagnated from 2002-2012 even though productivity in Oregon increased. “What we saw in Oregon, which was very much reflected in the rest of the country, was that profits and wealth going to the top one percent were increasing;” however, “those benefits from that wealth were not trickling down to workers and were not actually increasing wages,” she said. Cooper earns $10.25 per hour at COCC, and recently found a second part-time job on the weekends. His struggle to find housing on a low wage is not uncommon. “Everybody is looking for first and last [month’s rent], and doing a minimum wage job, its going to take you a while to come up with that,” he said. Over the past six months, Cooper found jobs through a staffing agency but the work wasn’t steady so he went to the Oregon Department of Human Services office to apply for SNAP benefits (food assistance). When Cooper told a DHS employee that - Aaron Cooper he was homeless, he was told he didn’t look homeless. He asked, “What does homelessness look like?” Cooper said he would like more people to be aware of the many low-wage workers in Oregon who are one paycheck away from being homeless.

“We were that close from just having everything gone all the time—every month, every week."

he’s enjoying his job and says the work environment is great. When Cooper’s shift ends, he goes to his car—where he’s been sleeping for the last eight months. Earlier this month, Gov. Brown unveiled proposed legislation to raise the minimum wage gradually over the next six years, but the increase also depends on geography. For people living in the Portland Metro Urban Growth area, minimum wage would increase to $15.52 per hour by 2022. The rest of Oregon would see a slower crawl from the current $9.25 per hour to $10.25 in 2017, ultimately reaching $13.50, six years from now in 2022. The federal minimum wage has been

hardship combined the number of people living in poverty and the number of ALICE workers for all Oregon counties. In Deschutes County, 41 percent of the population does not earn enough income to afford basic needs such as childcare, housing, food and transportation and statewide the total is 38 percent of all households. Many minimum wage and low-wage workers rely on government subsidies to assist with basic necessities—a tab picked up by taxpayers. According to the Oregon Workforce Report published by the University of Oregon Labor Education and Research Center, the annual cost of public assistance to workers in Oregon is over $1.75 billion. Nationally, according to research at UC Berkeley, more than half—56 percent—of combined state and federal spending on public assistance goes to working families.

Looking back, Cooper never realized how close his family was to being homeless until he was older. “We were that close from just having everything gone all the time—every month, every week,” he said. “People shouldn’t live like that or shouldn’t have the feeling that can happen, especially with two or three jobs being held down and that still being a possibility.” The State of Oregon Employment Department in 2015 noted a sharp year-over-year increase in the number of workers holding two or more jobs. Cooper is hopeful he’ll be able to get by on his two jobs. For now, despite the harsh Central Oregon winter, he said blankets and sleeping bags keep him warm in his car.

Gov. Kate Brown hired an interim Legislative Director to permanently serve on her staff. Ivo Trummer previously served as the Policy and Government Affairs Director for Business Oregon. In a statement Gov. Brown said, “Ivo brings a wealth of experience and knowledge to the office. I am fortunate to have him on my executive team and look forward to his continued service to the state of Oregon.” Trummer is a graduate of the University of Vienna, Austria, and was former Gov. Ted Kulongoski’s Senior Energy Policy Advisor.

Thirty organizations have received $190,000 in grants awarded by the Oregon Arts Commission. The 2016 Arts Build Communities grants will be used for projects around the state ranging from vacant storefronts in Corvallis, to funding a short documentary about homelessness in Portland, to providing supplies for college students to promote a visual arts program for people suffering from dementia and PTSD. The Oregon Arts Commission is comprised of nine governor-appointed commissioners who work to find art areas of need and create policies supporting the arts. “In 2003, the Oregon legislature moved the operations of the Oregon Cultural Trust to the Arts Commission, streamlining operations and making use of the Commission’s expertise in grant-making, arts and cultural information and community cultural development,” according to the statement.

The FBI has released a statement on its involvement with the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge situation. “The FBI recognizes that many in the community have questions about why we are here and our role in helping to end the occupation of the wildlife refuge. We are here to work closely with Sheriff Ward and our local, state and federal partners to protect the safety and welfare of this community,” according to the statement. “This occupation has caused tremendous disruption and hardship for the people of Harney County, and our response has been deliberate and measured as we seek a peaceful resolution.”

OPIOID EPIDEMIC LEGALIZING NARCAN, A LIFE-SAVING OVERDOSE REVERSAL DRUG By Corinne Boyer

“The United States is in the midst of a prescription painkiller overdose epidemic,” according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Moreover, “Heroin use more than doubled among young adults ages 18 to 25 in the past decade,” says the CDC. When the FDA approved the Naloxone nasal spray, it reported that more people die from drug overdose deaths than in car accidents—it’s the number one cause of injury death in the United States. “This is a much bigger problem than the crack epidemic from the 90s or the meth epidemic that we saw last decade,” says Buehler, who is a medical doctor.

driven by both the prescription opioid epidemic and cheaper, more available heroin.” THE SCOPE OF THE OPIOID CRISIS “It’s almost at epidemic proportions— especially in Oregon,” says Buehler. According to Buehler, Oregon has one of the highest narcotic prescription written of any state in the nation. His proposal, “would allow Narcan to be out much more widely in the community so you could get ahold of it by going into a pharmacy without a doctor’s prescription, [and] homeless shelters and sobering facilities would have Narcan on hand and anyone could deliver it,” he

The intent is to help providers deliver better care while reducing opioid addictions,” he says. FACING ADDICTION Every weekday around 11:30 a.m., Marissa wakes up, takes her dog Asali for a walk, feeds her cats and eats breakfast. She then bikes or drives a few miles over a congested bridge into town to stand in line at a methadone clinic in her town. For the last two years, this routine has been a constant in her life when she decided to seek help for her opioid addiction. “My daily routine isn’t a very planned out routine, it just kind of happens,” she says. “Since I work at night and sometimes I don’t get home until three, four, or six in the morning from work, where I’d maybe like to sleep a few more hours, I can’t.” She doesn’t often get a chance to do anything she enjoys like yoga or taking her dog on longer walks because once her methadone begins to kick in, the drowsiness forces her to take a nap. If she happens to be out grocery shopping or running errands, she says she’ll have to slap herself in the face to stay awake while driving until she arrives at home. Sometimes she falls asleep while she’s eating.

“In 2012, Oregon had the highest rate of non-medical use of prescription pain relievers in the nation,” according to the Oregon Health Authority’s 2014 Drug Overdose Deaths, Hospitalizations and Dependency Among Oregonians report. The opioid epidemic continues to run rampant in lower income communities. According to the Center for Marissa walks her dog Asali. She's been in recovery from her opioid addiction for two years.

Opiod addiction began for Marissa with her first job as a hostess at a strip club. She then became a cocktail waitress and began drinking and using prescribed Lorcet to deal with her hangovers. After finishing her perscription she bought them from a bouncer for three dollars a pill. “I remember I would just give him 100 or 150 dollars at a time because I had plenty of money at the time,” she says. “Thirty pills would last me a few weeks, maybe just a week, it depended on how much I was taking.” That was when she became dependent on opioids for the first time—taking them every day. A few years later, working as a dancer in 2008, she began taking an opioid called Roxy--30 milligram instant release oxycodone pills—to cope with her panic attacks, bouts of agoraphobia and back pain. “I took a Percocet here and there, and I just remember how good it made me feel,” she says. “At the time I could take a quarter of one of those pills and get high from it. Every day that I would work I would take one. Then I started taking one when I got up; then I started snorting them, too.” The nadir of Marissa’s drug use came after injecting cocaine. Days after injecting,

her arms became red and swollen, landing her in an emergency room. She was prescribed antibiotics, but the pain and redness didn’t subside. When she went back to the emergency room a different doctor told her it was likely inflammation of the blood vessels. Addiction to opioids can increase chronic pain and at one point Marissa sought help for extreme back pain. She asked one doctor to order her an MRI and he refused. As she was seen at different doctors’ offices and in the emergency room

EFFORTS AND SOLUTIONS In September, CVS Pharmacy announced that it would carry Naloxone, (sold under the brand name Narcan), the overdose reversal nasal spray, without a prescription in 12 states in addition to Rhode Island and Massachusetts. Mike DeAngelis with CVS says people can place a standing order for Naloxone, which allows the drug to be ordered and arrives the next day so people can have access in case of an opioid overdose. “Standing order agreements [are] the

“THIS IS A MUCH BIGGER PROBLEM THAN THE CRACK EPIDEMIC FROM THE 90S OR THE METH EPIDEMIC THAT WE SAW LAST DECADE” -BUEHLER over the years, she says doctors didn’t believe she was experiencing pain and no medical professional ever suggested she seek help for addiction. “No one ever told me that I should get help or ever flat told me, ‘I think that you’re an addict, you need to get help, here’s phone numbers that you can call.’ That never occurred,” she says. In 2014, Marissa knew she needed help. She asked about treatment options for her opioid addiction in an emergency room.

same process by which pharmacies can administer flu shots,” he says. Susan McCreavy, a health educator who runs the HIV program at the Deschutes County Needle Exchange, says the program is in need of more funding. “It was cut in 2010, to just a little bit of staff,” she says. “We’re in the process of trying to rebuild that in light of the opioid problem across the country and in Deschutes County.” Last quarter, McCreavy says 3,500 needles were exchanged at four

needle exchange boxes located in Deschutes County. “The Needle Exchange program exists to prevent HIV, Hepatitis C, and to keep needles out of the community and out of the park,” she says. FINDING HELP Before seeking treatment at a methadone clinic, Marissa says, “I had a horrible perception and I thought that they were terrible places for the worst druggies ever.” People tell her how bad methadone is, but she disagrees. “It’s not a perfect program, but it’s really helped me greatly,” she says. “I mean in a way it’s helped save my life.” For now, Marissa battles with depression, anxiety, experiencing highs and lows, from her drug use and now sobriety. Although she can’t talk about her rock bottom experience, she says, “There are so many things that I wish I could have done differently, but if I had done them differently, then I wouldn’t be the same person that I am right now,” she says. She adds, “I’ve not only learned from it, but it’s helped shape my personality today just like anyone.”

Editor's Note: For this story, the reporter interviewed her sister. If you or someone you know is suffering from an opioid addiction, please contact Deschutes County Public Health or the National Opiate Hotline (877) 647-2177.

JB Boxter brings his unique Americana soul to one of Bend’s newest brew locations, Craft Kitchen and Brewery. Never content to stick to a single genre, expect Boxter to hop around all over the spectrum for a singular and personal live music experience. Enjoy the craft brew and the hand crafted sound. 6 p.m. Every other Friday. Craft Kitchen and Brewery, 384 SW Upper Terrace Dr. No cover.

Philadelphia natives Dr. Dog brings its encyclopedic pop music to the Midtown Ballroom, 2/3. Photo provided by Dr. Dog.

“T

he Psychedelic Swamp” isn’t just a concept album. It’s an alternate history, a pointed satire about America, a multi-media excursion into another realm of reality and a search for happiness set against a backdrop of indecision, insecurity and innovation. Most importantly, “The Psychedelic Swamp” is a damned fine rock record and the finest album yet from the Philadelphia natives of Dr. Dog. Lead guitarist/vocalist/multi-instrumentalist Scott McMicken and bassist/vocalist/multi-instrumentalist Toby Leaman have been making music together since eighth grade. Their voices are distinct from one another, yet blend perfectly, with McMicken’s sound reminiscent of Daniel Johnston at his most focused and Leaman bringing a raspier Americana croon to the band. “The Psychedelic Swamp” was their first album together as Dr. Dog and it is also their most recent, but this isn’t a re-release. In fact, much of it sounds completely different except for the songwriting. Leaman and McMicken knew that the 2001 release of the album wouldn’t be their final word on The Swamp. “When we were done,” McMicken explains, “we knew there was going to be another round with it. Not so much that we wanted to re-do what we had done with it, but built into the concept was that there was another version of this that was going to need to be made to complete that narrative. Essentially the narrative is that we didn’t make that tape. That is what was given to us by this guy and his instructions were to take this verbal, long mess and translate it into American pop

music that could be understood by the masses.” Dr. Dog has taken the concept of “The Psychedelic Swamp” and created a rock opera heavy on symbolism, thematic depth and duality, but bringing a riff-laden and feverishly catchy sound along for the ride. It’s important to understand how their sound evolved in order to get what they have done here. Following their 2001 debut, next came the lo-fi 60s pop harmonies of 2003’s “Toothbrush” with a crescendo to the ramshackle freedom of 2005’s “Easy Beat,” which would hint at what would come with 2007’s “We All Belong.” That album sees Dr. Dog adding psych rock to the three and four-part harmonies they had perfected over the first few records, giving the band’s sound a much richer texture to build on. The 2008 release of “Fate” combined a newly discovered country-tinged Americana sound with massive chamber-pop harmonies and gorgeous heartbreak songwriting to create their most fluid and focused album to date. In 2010, “Shame, Shame,” came with a huge departure from their prior influences, with tighter songwriting and darker melodies. The record plays like a view into an alternate universe where everything didn’t work out so well. By 2012, “Be the Void” was an exercise in catchy songwriting, as earworm after earworm is unspooled. The one-two-three punch of “Lonesome,” “That Old Black Hole” and “These Days” teach a master class in pop songwriting. More recently, “B-Room,” released in 2013, roams around in slinky ‘70s R&B, funk-tinged with psych rock.

“The Psychedelic Swamp” remembers those records and holds them dear, but is looking off into a new sky. The record feels like the tip of an iceberg, hiding so many more layers and mysteries in its depths. The album recalls so many time periods and genres from the 8-bit nostalgia of the ‘80s to the dreamy folk summer nights of the ‘60s. This record shares a look into America’s own history with pop music and music in general and, regardless of age, creates a tapestry of emotion in four-minute masterstrokes. Songs like “Bring My Baby Back to Me,” “Engineer Says” and “Golden Hind” feel like instant classics that have always been a part of the national consciousness. Dr. Dog’s collaboration with Philadelphia’s Pig Iron Theatre Company for the immersive “Swamp is On” production, shows there is still so much to explore. Concept albums usually have a sense of either self-aggrandizement or self-flagellation, but “The Psychedelic Swamp” is more of an exploration. McMicken says, “There’s one common theme, which is about the pursuit of happiness and the pursuit of wisdom, essentially, and manifesting that through your life’s decisions. This album is about that kind of creative spirit and fostering that in your life and in your malleability of perspectives.” These seem like extraordinarily lofty goals for pop music, but those goals created an album of this brilliance.

A Brave New World Bravey Don takes the local indie rock scene by storm

THE SOURCE

FEATURED ALBUM By Jared Rasic

WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / January 28, 2016 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

By Jon Paul Jones

T

he Outer Vibe takes the laid-back lyricism of Jimmy Buffet and smashes it into the falsetto of Muse and the straightforward pop of Vampire Weekend. This wide-ranging style should not work this well, but it certainly does. The band hails from Grand Rapids, Michigan, with inspirations that are deep and varied. The members wear their influences on their sleeves, which allows every track on the newly released album “Full Circle” to stand completely on its own.

These up and coming local favorites may be a tough act to follow. Volcanic Theatre Pub, 2/1.

A

ttending a show of the markedly talented and passion-infused band Bravey Don is a tremendous experience. Since its inception in February of 2015, B.D. has quickly become a favorite group for many locals. In fact, Bravey is one of the Bend-based bands whose music and potential there is reason to have considerable excitement about. The B.D. trifecta consists of members Jonathan Burr on drums and vocals, Ryan Lucas on bass, and David Gillespie on guitar and lead vocals. Gillespie actually started out his rockstar-in-the-making career in Necktie Killer, previously one of Bend’s most popular groups. Unfortunately, due to differences among band members, Necktie disbanded and Gillespie was left to explore new options. “Necktie Killer broke up about a year and a half after I joined and I quickly started the process of forming my own band with the intention of writing the music and taking the place of lead singer,” said Gillespie. His role in Necktie was that of trombone player, so he has certainly gone in a brave new direction by taking lead in his own band. Bravey Don released its first album this last year: “Birth of Bravey.” It’s a five-track EP (extended play), which is nothing short of contemporary and tasty indie rock with plenty of groove-infused danceable tracks, sarcastic undertones, and dirty blends of

“Full Circle” is produced by Brad Dollar (Grateful Dead, Keb-Mo and The National) and mastered by Jo LaPor-

ear-popping auditory bliss. It’s available for dirt cheap to download on Bandcamp.com. Bravey already has a second album in the works, slated for release this spring. One of the great things about seeing a Bravey Don show is the palpable authenticity of the experience. The gents in the band are some of the most enthused and energetic in the industry, and that translates directly into the “x” factor present at their shows. “We want to get people worked up. We are not a sit-down band. We want to get you moving, get you drinking, get you feeling emotions in the teenage extremes of intensity,” Gillespie says. That is exactly what they accomplish; consequently, B.D. has a strong local following that can be found at most shows, infusing those venues with a synergistic explosion of elated and boisterous participants. What else should a first-timer expect at a Bravey Don show? The music is so catchy and danceable, that by the end of the night if there are any butts left in seats, they should probably be immediately enrolled in fun lessons.

ta (Foo Fighters and Imagine Dragons). The experience definitely shines through on this full-length release. The entire album is catchy across the board with a good-natured optimism that infuses every note and all of the lyrics. Tracks journey from Dick Dalestyle surf rock in the song “Sold My Brain” to a haunting heartbreak ballad in “Never Meet Again” then back around to 80s gospel/rock with “Waits for Me” before diving deep into the anthem “Full Circle.” The live show should be even better, combining all of the harmonies into a huge and inspiring sound. For those unfamiliar with The Outer Vibe, this week’s local live performance is the perfect time to become a fan.

E

veryone loves a fat, green, Scottish ogre that hates the world and everyone in it. This is just a giant recipe for success and “Shrek: The Musical” makes sense. Thoroughly Modern Productions (TMP) has made a bit of a cottage industry performing fairy tales over the last few years with productions of “Beauty and the Beast,” “The Wizard of Oz” and “Peter Pan” delighting audiences. “Shrek: The Musical” is a perfect fit for David and Mallory DaCosta’s production company and this version of “Shrek” should please adults as well as kids. “Shrek: The Musical” tells the story of the first film, but with a bunch of pretty catchy musical numbers, some dancing and adorable kids running around. Shrek is an ogre that contentedly lives alone in a swamp, but when the fairytale creatures of the neighboring kingdom of Duloc are exiled, they show up right on his muddy doorstep. Shrek wants a return to his peace and quiet, so he embarks on a journey to meet the nasty Lord Farquaad, the

man who exiled the group, to ask him to take them back. On his adventure he meets a smart aleck donkey named Donkey and gets embroiled in a different adventure to rescue Princess Fiona from a castle surrounded by boiling lava and a dragon. The real joy in TMP’s production is getting to watch classic moments from the film come to life on stage. Director Mallory DaCosta takes several of the iconic moments from the film that cost a small fortune to reproduce on a Broadway stage and scaled them down to fit a reasonable budget and The Tower Theatre stage in Bend. DaCosta’s casting for “Shrek” is excellent, with a deep bench of vocal talent and a few secret weapons that pop up, knock a song out of the park and disappear into the background again. David DaCosta plays Shrek and had a touch of laryngitis during the dress rehearsal. His sad and lonely gaze helped anchor the show. Tommy Kuchulis is a fun Donkey, imbuing him with the

proper manic energy the character needs. There are quite a few strong vocal performances, but the real knockouts are Ryan Klontz (recently seen as Ash in “Evil Dead: The Musical”) as Lord Farquaad and Stephanie Crespo as The Dragon and The Wicked Witch. Klontz brings such precision to his vocal work and his acting that he defines the villain that you love to hate. Crespo is a vocal powerhouse channeling Tina Turner and Diana Ross in equal measure. Whenever they’re on stage, the show crackles with energy and excitement. “Shrek:The Musical” is a blast and judging from the instant standing ovation from the entire audience, this theater lover isn’t the only one who thinks so.

Kitchen Built To Roll CHOW Custom Barrio brings flavor to the streets By Russ Axon

25 VOLUME 20 ISSUE 04 / January 28, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

he bold and delectable smells of Barrio, the popular Latin-inspired restaurant in downtown, are now making their way around Bend. That would be the work of Barrio’s new food truck, which chef/owner Stephen Draheim launched just last year. Though it may seem like Barrio is jumping on the ever-growing bandwagon, the food truck is actually a return to Draheim’s roots, when he and then co-owner Joel Cordes peddled tacos and soup out of little carts by The Blacksmith. “The cart was literally six feet long and held barely just enough to handle a busy lunch. You had to push it or tow it behind a car,” Draheim says. Draheim made a concentrated effort last year after he saw a Craigslist ad for a retired FedEx truck in Washington state. (FedEx retires trucks after 300,000 miles. They typically end up in the lots of used car garages or specialized dealers.) After a nine-hour drive and “a great deal and clean title,” Draheim was the proud owner of a new food truck … after applying some elbow grease, of course. G&S Custom Fabrications was tasked with the conversion. The team there specializes in restoring and customizing hot rods and classic cars, but Draheim says they were eager to tackle something different. “I think for a lot of people, it’s the freedom of being able to call your own shots, make your own hours. There’s more flexibility and freedom to do what you want. If you’re the chef or souschef of a restaurant, you’re cooking the restaurant’s menu day in and day out. With food trucks, obviously, you want to

be consistent, but there’s more flexibility from an artistic standpoint. I think customers are drawn to that,” he says. “They took a lot of pride in this job,” he says. “It’s their first food truck, and it was a custom job on a blank shell. They made sure it rolled out of their garage looking and working good. I’m super happy with the job they did.” The 30-foot-long Barrio food truck sports a full-kitchen and refrigeration system, outdoor speakers, and an instantly recognizable paint job. The entire setup can be manned by three chefs, and the focused menu includes the popular Barrio themes—spicy, Mexican-inspired flavors—while also allowing for more flexibility and freedom.

Jan. 29, 6pm-1am. Dogwood Cocktail Cabin, 147 NW Minnesota Ave. $5 public, $3 Locavore members.

“Since we got the truck loaded up with equipment and firepower, we can put out a lot of food fairly quick,” Draheim says. “You got a little more freedom being outside of the kitchen. As much as it’s more efficient to stay within our Barrio profile, we have done events where we’re showcasing what the client wants. We’ve done smoked trout, rib-eyes, vegetarian menus, and more.” The truck was initially used for the 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. lunch rush, (Draheim: “We tried doing a lunch thing over at Natural Edge; Mike Ross [owner of Natural Edge] even built a giant table outside.”) Not long after, they began to focus exclusively on catering events. “We ended up dipping into our lunch

He expects a similar schedule this year, but adds, “Hopefully, you’ll be seeing us downtown more often soon.” Anyone interested in rolling Barrio’s food truck out to their next event can visit barriobend.com to fill out a request or find more information.

any Bendites don’t like to think about spring when the days are still short and there’s at least half a chance at some face shots on Bachelor remaining, but the beer industry never rests. It knows that, by the time we’re all taking off our outer layers, we’ll want something lighter in our glasses to fend off the mosquitoes. 10 Barrel, for one, is wasting no time. Last week saw the official debut of Riding Solo, its new spring seasonal, after a test run at a bar or two around Bend. It’s the product of Ben Shirley, one of 10B’s brewers and the guy who collaborated with brewmaster Jeremy Seifrit on the label’s Big Daddy fresh hop beer back in the fall. (Shirley also lent his name recently to a beer from The Ale Apothecary called, “Shirley, You Can’t Be Serious,” which features some plums grown in his backyard.) Riding Solo, as the name suggests, is a single-hop pale ale from Comet with citrus on the top and subtle malt notes on the bottom. At 6.5 percent ABV, though, it’s not quite what one would call

sessionable. Luckily, GoodLife has you covered on that front, too. In February, the southwest-Bend brewery will launch Brewshed Session Ale, a 4.5-percenter that’s its first new release in a while to ship out in cans across its distribution sphere. This brand gets its name because part of the sales go to the Brewshed Alliance, a Washington-based non-profit that encourages water conservation via partnerships with breweries. GoodLife will be partnering with a few other charities for similar releases later this year. Check out the launch event at the brewery on Feb. 4. Meanwhile, the rumors coming from Fort George in Astoria should make IPA fans salivate. 3-Way IPA for 2016 will be a collaboration between them, Barley Brown’s Brewery, and Melvin Brewing out in Wyoming; expect it in late spring. The next batch of their Suicide Squeeze IPA, on the other hand, will be an encore of the 3-Way recipe from 2014, a brew that drew enormous adulation all across the country. It’ll be a very hot summer, indeed.

SCREEN Teenage Dystopian Apocalypse Blues Meet the 5th Wave, same as the 4th Wave By Jared Rasic 27 VOLUME 20 ISSUE 04 / January 28, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

I haven't showered in weeks, but damn, my hair has volume.

It shouldn’t be so hard to do dystopia right, but the young adult genre seems to struggle with it. For every excellent YA post-apocalyptic series (e.g. “The Chaos Walking Trilogy” or “The Red Rising Trilogy”), there are a dozen bad ones ( “Divergent” comes to mind). With the success of “The Hunger Games” films, all the studios started buying up the rights to as many dystopian YA series as they could. “The 5th Wave” is the next book series to be adapted for theaters. The formula for these post-apocalyptic teen adventures is so strict that entire series can be predicted after the first few chapters of the opening book. There will be a young woman who is self-reliant and untrusting, a young man who is soft-hearted and awkward and a slightly older man who is handsome, but with a darkness inside him that makes him even more dreamy. At some point, a love triangle will blossom

(most likely in the second book) and the tough but emotionally vulnerable young woman will make her choice based on her heart instead of her head. The love triangle is then placed inside either a futuristic society where our modern way of life is long past and a new social order is in place, or it takes place right at the beginning of the world-ending cataclysm so we see humanity’s demise. Then at some point, the sweetest or most adorable character will die and our heroes will discover that being human means helping others and protecting each other. “The 5th Wave” takes all of these elements and mashes them up into a big boring soup and then sprinkles a bunch of cliché dialogue over it like Bac-O’s. The film doesn’t distinguish itself enough from all that has come before, nor does it create excitement for where the future of

the series is going. This franchise stars Chloe Grace Moretz as Cassiopeia “Cassie” Sullivan, a normal high school student trying to survive after an alien attack and subsequent invasion, following a series of catastrophes. The First Wave took out all electricity/ technology, the Second Wave caused massive earthquakes that created tsunamis, wiping out three billion people and the Third Wave was a deadly virus that killed almost everyone else. The Fourth Wave is aliens infiltrating humanity, rather easily since they are indistinguishable from regular Earth people. The aliens then use this camouflage to pick off the last vestiges of humans one at a time. The Fifth Wave is predictable, yet holds a decent twist toward the end of the film. For some reason, The Fourth Wave aliens mostly picked redneck humans to possess while they hunt the survivors. Thus,

FEATURED FILM EVENTS

whenever Chloe Grace Moretz gets shot at throughout the film, her attackers always look like Ammon Bundy gave them the afternoon off the refuge. The unintentional hilarity of this keeps the film entertaining even when everything else fails. Columbia Pictures was so eager to get into the YA franchise game that they didn’t even wait for author Rick Yancey to publish the third book in the series (which will be released later this year). No matter what the future of the book or film franchise holds, “The 5th Wave” definitely does not inspire the audience to care. “The 5th Wave” Dir. J.

2016 WINTER X-GAMES SCREENING

BACKCOUNTRY FILM FESTIVAL

GROUNDHOG DAY

The X-Games are always fun to watch, but doing so in a bar filled with emotionally invested fans is definitely the way to go. Velvet is showing seven full hours of the games on its flat screen with comfy couches and all the liquor one could ever want. Sounds like the proper way to do it.

It’s time for the 11th annual Backcountry Film Festival, packed to the knapsack with all kinds of flicks about adventures folks are having. The money raised will go towards Project SNOW (Studying Nature Outdoors in Winter), which is giving 2,000 local kids a chance to learn awesome things while dreaming of hot chocolate.

The Tower Theatre is screening “Groundhog Day” all day long, non-stop on Groundhog Day, of course. There is nothing like reliving the day Bill Murray goes through, again and again. Also, the movie is hilarious and awesome and deserves to be seen on the big screen.

Thursday, Jan. 28. 5 p.m. to 2 a.m. Velvet, 805 NW Wall St. Free

Friday, Jan. 30. 6 p.m. The Belfry, 302 E. Main St., Sisters $10

13 HOURS: THE SECRET SOLDIERS OF BENGHAZI: A film about what really went down in Benghazi is something the world could definitely use, but maybe not in this format. Directed by Michael Bay, the auteur behind the "Transformers" franchise and "Armageddon," the trailers definitely are selling the film as more of an action movie than a political thriller. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

THE BIG SHORT: "The Big Short" tells the story about the 2008 subprime home loans crisis leading to the near-collapse of the country’s economy. With a cast featuring Brad Pitt, Ryan Gosling, Christian Bale and Steve Carell, the film is getting much more attention than it would otherwise. Grab some popcorn and prepare to be infuriated. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

CONCUSSION: Will Smith takes another swing at an Oscar with this story based on true events. Smith plays Bennet Omalu, a forensic pathologist who discovers a causality between neurologic deterioration and the constant concussions received by football players. As Omalu takes on the NFL, Smith plays the role of a quiet and dignified man like only he can. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

DADDY’S HOME: It’s real dad versus stepdad in this comedy featuring Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg. The pair face off for the love of two children, with Wahlberg playing the kids’ bad boy dad and Ferrell cast as the sensible stepfather. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

THE GOOD DINOSAUR: Pixar so rarely disappoints that just having its name on the project is enough to get most people into the theater, and "The Good Dinosaur" comes at a time when dinosaur love is peaking. The animated film follows the journey of a dinosaur and his companion, a cave-man boy who acts like a dog. The jury is still out with this one. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

THE HATEFUL EIGHT: Tarantino is definitely not for everyone, but for fans, this is a must-see. A western tale of bounty hunters and outlaws set during a blizzard in post-Civil War Wyoming, it’s as fascinating, beautiful, funny and deadly as could be.

struggle and fight for the lives they want to lead. Even the worst of Russell’s films are worth watching just to peek at the process of the famously difficult director. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

MUSTANGS: Five Turkish orphan girls deal with growing up in a conservative environment as they grow to understand what freedom to them really means. Up for the Best Foreign Film Oscar, "Mustang" is an absolutely gorgeous, timely film with a power that will be universal to anyone, anywhere, who feels a little differently. Tin Pan Theater POINT BREAK: Since it is actually impossible to improve upon perfection, this remake of the classic Patrick Swayze/Keanu Reeves vehicle seems like a pointless exercise in franchise greed. The trailers make the film look different enough from the original and possibly worth a viewing, but there is still something sour about the entire enterprise. Old Mill Stadium & IMAX

THE REVENANT: From the visionary director of "Birdman" comes the movie that almost killed Leonardo DiCaprio multiple times. "The Revenant" tells the somewhat true tale of Hugh Glass, a frontiersman who gets super mauled by a bear and then ditched by his hunting team and left for dead. What follows is 150 minutes of revenge, followed by violence, followed by catharsis, then repeat. Old Mill Stadium & IMAX

RIDE ALONG 2: Kevin Hart and Ice Cube team up again to make puns and shoot guns in this sequel to the ridiculously popular "Ride Along." Now that Hart is a full-fledged cop, will his constantly bumbling antics get him and Mr. Cube shot to pieces by some gangsters? Probably not. Old Mill Stadium & IMAX

ROOM: Based on the absolutely stunning novel, Room tells the story of what we must do to protect those that we love from the harshest of truths. Brie Larson is going to explode after this movie and become the next big thing. Go into it knowing as little as possible in order to let the film take you under its wing. Tin Pan Theater

SISTERS: Tina Fey and Amy Poehler playTHE HUNGER GAMES: MOCKINGJAYPART 2: Although it does feel like this series has been going forever, "Mockingjay Part 2" should give the epic series a proper sendoff. As fans of the books know, this is the part of the story where everything actually happens (unlike the completely event-free Part 1), so tissues should be held at the ready.

ing sisters throwing a house party in their childhood home sounds like a pretty good recipe for a classic.

OUTSIDE Winter Fishing

High season for Steelhead

ishing isn’t confined to fair weather months in the Bend area. It takes a little more grit, but the rewards of winter solitude and communing with nature often result in some great fishing. For those who want to chase Bull Trout or Rainbow, winter presents some of the best fly-fishing options available in Central Oregon – without the heavy pressure that better weather brings to local rivers. Gabe Parr is one of those hardcore fishermen who doesn’t care how hot or cold it may be when he goes fishing. He just goes fishing. He’s a founding member of the Bend Casting Club and a board member of the Oregon Council of Trout Unlimited. He also founded the “Trout Bus” which travels through the area promoting conservation values and, yes, our cold water fishery in Central Oregon. He’s one of those fishermen who aspire to fish 100 days or more each year. As a hardcore fisherman, Parr has wise words for those who participate in winter fishing. He says that winter fishing requires much more careful planning. He strongly advises winter fishers to have a dedicated line of communication in case of emergency and to buddy up when fishing. He freely admits that winter fishing can be more dangerous, requires more planning, warm clothing, and often a four-wheeler equipped for snow and ice. Among the many fly-fishing stores in the Bend area, the Confluence Fly Shop -- located in the Old Mill District -distributes a fly-fishing report once each

quarter. The shop’s winter report touts the Metolius River as its favorite winter fishery. Large Bull Trout have been legendary in the Metolius for generations, and winter is a great time to target these big fish. As the Kokanee leave Lake Billy Chinook and head up the Metolius, the big Bulls are usually right behind them looking for an easy meal. For these big fish, streamers such as Dolly Llama, Hawkins Triple Double, and Clark’s Rat are some of the Confluence’s favorites. The Rainbow catch can also be rewarding on the Metolius during the winter months, and many fly-fishermen will tell you that nymphing below the surface is usually the most productive way to catch them. Right now, Confluence reports that the Silver Stripe Sedge presents almost identical to the popular October Caddis. The shop suggests nymphing with an October Caddis pattern rigged with a Blue Wing Olive nymph following it. In the winter months, many fishing experts will suggest targeting deeper and slower water. Like anything else, cold weather can take a toll. Fish will conserve as much energy as possible in the winter and tend to congregate in this type of water. Parr says that winter fishing requires a different mind-set and approach than spring, summer, and fall fishing. Although the Metolius is a favorite winter fishery, there are other opportunities in the Bend area. Flows on the Crooked River drop during the winter as water is stored above Bowman Dam for summer

irrigation, so it’s a bit easier to wade. Bright glow bugs seem to work well in the winter months. The nearby Deschutes River is always a popular mainstay among winter fly-fishermen, and many will fish it from Meadow Camp to Benham Falls, especially if they only have a few hours to invest. Experts such as the fishermen at Confluence say the fish are pretty lethargic in this cold water and that dry fly-fishing is generally unproductive. Nymphing and streamer fishing is recommended. Streamers paired with a sinking polyleader can often tempt a big Brown Trout to strike. Again, try to target the deeper, slower water when fishing the Deschutes close to town. Often overlooked is the Ana River near Summer Lake. Take Highway 31, southeast of La Pine, drive past Fort Rock and Silver Lake to the Ana reservoir just north of Summer Lake. The Ana is easily accessed from both sides of the river as it flows from the reservoir where there is parking available. About seven miles later, it enters Summer Lake. There isn’t a lot of pressure due to the high desert location about 90 miles southeast of Bend, so the Ana may present an intriguing option for winter and early spring fishermen. For more information on the Trout Bus, check this website: troutbus.com/aboutthe-bus. The Confluence Fly Shop offers advice, lessons, and gear: confluenceflyshop.com.

entral Oregon offers so much in terms of year-round recreation that we often get into a rut in where we go to enjoy outdoor adventures. We’re fortunate to have access to a wide variety of seasonal outdoor sports and activities right in our own backyard. For those who want to shake up their routines and travel a bit farther afield, the Diamond Lake Resort offers great winter recreational opportunities. Originally best known as one of the premiere summer trout fisheries in Oregon, Diamond Lake has also become a winter recreation destination. The resort has evolved from a small 1920s fishing lodge to a full-service resort offering cabins, room rentals, restaurant and store. Take Highway 97 south to Highway 138 west. Just a few miles past the Crater Lake north entrance (now closed due to snow), you will find signs to the resort. Current snow conditions couldn’t be better for a winter get-away at Diamond Lake. Without question, snowmobiling is the most popular activity at the lake, followed by cross country skiing and snowshoeing. The resort offers several options for snowmobile rentals, ranging from two-hour minimums to all-day rentals. The resort features a mid-week package from Sunday night to Thursday that includes overnight accommodations and snowmobile rental for less than $200. Diamond Lake Resort boasts seven miles of groomed cross-country trails in addition to ample backcountry skiing access. Skis can be rented by the hour or all day for $25. There are snowshoe rentals as well. But that’s not all. The snow tubing hill, with unlimited uphill tows, has become extremely popular for families. Tubing is available Friday nights and all day on Saturdays and Sundays. The hill will also be open on President’s Day, which is Feb. 15 this year. Two-hour sessions cost $10 per person, and all-day rates are $25. The resort also caters to seniors during the month of February by reserving the lodge just for those 55-and-over participating in the cross-country ski program. The resort emphasizes that one does not have to be an accomplished cross-country skier to participate; choose snowshoeing instead. The program offers discounted lodge rates and covers all activities including guided tours, lessons, lunch, and a buffet dinner each night. For further information, call the resort at 541-793-3333. More information can be found at the Diamond Lake Resort website: diamondlake.net.

ADVICE GODDESS

Mr. Throng

—Stuck It isn’t exactly a shocker that the thing you want to be asking your boyfriend when he comes home is not “Hey, cuddlebug, how was your booty call?” There’s this notion that being sexually sophisticated means being all “no probski” about your partner having sex on the “I love a parade” model. But it turns out that jealousy isn’t so easily disabled. Research by evolutionary psychologist David Buss suggests that jealousy is basically love’s burglar alarm—an evolved psychological warning system that goes off in response to threats to a relationship. So, sure, you can try to talk yourself into being cool with the sexual variety pack—just like when you hear your downstairs window breaking, you can try to roll over and catch a little more shut-eye while the burglars ransack your house. It must seem kind of unbelievable to be so miserable yet so unable to keep enough of a grip on that to get out. You can probably blame the limits of what’s called “working memory.” It’s essentially a mental workspace—a kind of whiteboard in your head—where you lay out and kick around a few sets of information. These info sets are called “chunks,” and one example might be the experiences that make up the idea “he cooks me these wonderful dinners!” But according to research by psychologist Nelson Cowan, working memory holds only about four chunks at once. We also tend to give priority seating to info sets that justify the choices we’ve made. So, all aboard for the he’s a great kisser chunk, the he was really sweet when I was in the hospital chunk, etc., etc. And whoops—whaddya know—seems there’s no room for he insists on having sex buffet-style. You need to look at all the information at once, and this requires a piece of paper and a pen. On either half of the page, list the pros and cons of being with him, giving them blocks of space that correspond

33 VOLUME 20 ISSUE 04 / January 28, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

I’m a 35-year-old woman, and I’ve been involved with a guy around my age for almost two years. It’s been “open.” Well, that is, he’s had the freedom to sleep with other people. I haven’t wanted to. I finally realized that I am not happy with this and want more, but he made it very clear that he’s not interested in being monogamous—with me or anybody. I’m having a very difficult time cutting things off, as there’s a lot that’s great about our relationship. How do you leave somebody you really care about who you know is bad for you?

to their importance. For example, his home-cooked meals should probably get a sliver of space on the pro side, while his need to go home with Linda should get a big block on the con side. Carry this paper around and look at it until it becomes clear to you that you need to be somebody’s “one and only” and not just the one before their Tuesday tennis lesson.

Hug Hefner I’m a 32-year-old guy, and my girlfriend has been complaining that the only time I’m cuddly or affectionate is when I want to have sex. I don’t really see the problem. It’s my way of initiating versus…I don’t know, asking her…which would be weird.

—Confused Aw…how sweet…cuddling that comes with a trap door to the sex dungeon! From a woman’s point of view, it’s nice to have your boyfriend, say, grab your hand, and not just because he’d like you to put it on his penis. This isn’t just some mysterious form of sexual etiquette. It comes out of how women evolved to be “commitment skeptics,” as evolutionary psychologist Martie Haselton puts it. Erring on the side of underestimating a man’s level of commitment was how ancestral women kept themselves from ending up single mothers with a bunch of cave-lings to feed.

A Phone Company That

ACTUALLY Picks Up?

Economist Robert Frank calls love “a solution to the commitment problem.” As he explains it, being emotionally bonded keeps you from making a coldly rational calculation about who’s got more to offer, your girlfriend or the new neighbor with boobs so big that each should be sending a delegate to the U.N. So, because women are on the lookout for signs that you love them, a hug is a hug is a hug needs to be the deal much of the time. Otherwise, whenever you’re affectionate, it’ll just seem like the boyfriend version of a wino telling a woman she’s beautiful—because it would be really beautiful if she’d give him the last dollar he needs to get drunk on cheapo aftershave.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): The Leaning Tower of Pisa is eight stories high, including its belfry, and tilts sideways at a four-degree angle. When builders started construction back in 1173, they laid a weak foundation in unstable soil, and the building has never stood straight since then. And yet it is the most lucrative tourist attraction in the city of Pisa, and one of the top ten in Italy. Its flaw is the source of its fame and glory. What’s the equivalent in your world, Pisces? Now is a favorable time to take new or extra advantage of something you consider imperfect or blemished. ARIES (March 21-April 19): The Bible’s Book of Exodus tells the story of the time Moses almost met God. “Show me your glory, please,” the prophet says to his deity, who’s hiding. “You cannot see my face,” God replies, “but I will show you my back parts.” That’s good enough for Moses. He agrees. I hope that you, too, will be satisfied with a tantalizingly partial epiphany, Aries. I’m pretty sure that if you ask nicely, you can get a glimpse of a splendor that’s as meaningful to you as God was to Moses. It may only be the “back parts,” but that should still stir you and enrich you.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): The archaic English word “quaintrelle” refers to a woman who treats her life as a work of art. She is passionate about cultivating beauty and pleasure and wit in everything she is and does. But she’s not a narcissistic socialite. She’s not a snooty slave to elitist notions of style. Her aim is higher and sweeter: to be an impeccable, well-crafted fount of inspiration and blessings. I propose that we resuscitate and tinker with this term, and make it available to you. In 2016, you Tauruses of all genders will be inclined to incorporate elements of the quaintrelle, and you will also be skilled at doing so. If you have not yet dived in to this fun work, start now! GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Sufi teacher (and Gemini) Idries Shah offered this teaching: “They say that when Fortune knocks, you should open the door. But why should you make Fortune knock, by keeping the door shut?” Let’s make this your featured meditation, Gemini. If there is anywhere in your life where proverbial doors are shut—either in the world outside of you or the world inside of you—unlock them and open them wide. Make it easy for Fortune to reach you.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Many Cancerians harbor a chronic ache of melancholy about what they’re missing. The unavailable experience in question could be an adventure they wish they were having or an absent ally they long to be near or a goal they wish they had time to pursue. That’s the bad news. The good news is that you can harness the chronic ache. In fact, it’s your birthright as a Cancerian to do so. If you summon the willpower to pull yourself up out of the melancholy, you can turn its mild poison into a fuel that drives you to get at least some of what you’ve been missing. Now is a favorable time to do just that.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): How will the next chapter of your story unfold? I suspect there are two possible scenarios. In one version, the abundance of choices overwhelms you. You get bogged down in an exciting but debilitating muddle, and become frazzled, frenetic, and overwrought. In the other possible scenario,

you navigate your way through the lavish freedom with finesse. Your intuition reveals exactly how to make good use of the fertile contradictions. You’re crafty, adaptable, and effective. So which way will you go? How will the tale unfold? I think it’s completely up to you. Blind fate will have little to do with it. For best results, all you have to do is stay in close touch with the shining vision of what you really want.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): “To hell with my suffering,” wrote Arthur Rimbaud in his poem “May Banners.” I suggest you make that your mantra for now. Anytime you feel a sour thought impinging on your perceptions, say, “To hell with my suffering.” And then immediately follow it up with an expostulation from another Rimbaud poem, “It’s all too beautiful.” Be ruthless about this, Virgo. If you sense an imminent outbreak of pettiness, or if a critical voice in your head blurts out a curse, or if a pesky ghost nags you, simply say, “To hell with my suffering,” and then, “It’s all too beautiful.” In this way, you can take advantage of the fact that you now have more power over your emotional pain than usual. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): “I like people who unbalance me,” says Irish writer Colum McCann. Normally I wouldn’t dream of encouraging you to make the same declaration, Libra. My instinct is to help you do everything necessary to maintain harmony. But now is one of those rare times when you can thrive on what happens when you become a bit tilted or uneven or irregular. That’s because the influences that unbalance you will be the same influences that tickle your fancy and charge your batteries and ring your bell and sizzle your bacon. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): The African Association was a 19th-century British group dedicated to exploring West Africa. Its members hoped to remedy Europeans’ ignorance about the area’s geography. In one of the Association’s most ambitious projects, it commissioned an adventurer named Henry Nicholls to discover the origin and to chart the course of the legendary Niger River. Nicholls and his crew set out by ship in their quest, traveling north up a river that emptied into the Gulf of Guinea. They didn’t realize, and never figured out, that they were already on the Niger River. I’m wondering if there’s a comparable situation going on in your life, Scorpio. You may be looking for something that you have already found.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Richard P. Feynman was a brilliant physicist who won a Nobel Prize in 1965 for his pioneering work in quantum electrodynamics. He also played the bongo drums and was a competent artist. But excessive pride was not a problem for him. “I’m smart enough to know that I’m dumb,” he testified. “The first principle is that you must not fool yourself—and you are the easiest person to fool.” I suggest you adopt him as your role model for the next two weeks, Sagittarius. All of us need periodic reminders that we’ve got a lot to learn, and this is your time. Be extra vigilant in protecting yourself from your own misinformation and misdirection. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Food connoisseur Anthony Bourdain has a TV show that enables him to travel the globe indulging in his love of exotic cuisine. He takes his sensual delights seriously. In Charleston, South Carolina, he was ecstatic to experience the flavorful bliss of soft-shell crab with lemon pasta and shaved bottarga. “Frankly,” he told his dining companion, “I’d slit my best friend’s throat for this.” Bourdain was exaggerating for comic effect, but I’m concerned you may actually feel that strongly about the gratifications that are almost within your grasp. I have no problem with you getting super-intense in pursuit of your enjoyment. But please stop short of taking extreme measures. You know why.

Although you sense their potential value, you might have to ripen before you’ll be ready to receive their full bounty. Here’s how author Elias Canetti expressed it: “There are books, that one has for twenty years without reading them, that one always keeps at hand, yet one carefully refrains from reading even a complete sentence. Then after twenty years, there comes a moment when suddenly, as though under a high compulsion, one cannot help taking in such a book from beginning to end, at one sitting: it is like a revelation.” I foresee a comparable transition happening for you, Aquarius.

Smart Growth

The advantage of suburban expansion for developers is that the land is cheaper and profit higher. For homeowners, those who want a larger lot and lower density can have it. On the surface, this sounds good, but there are costs to consider such as traffic and travel to and from the suburbs to the city to work. The homes might be less expensive, but one ends up spending more for fuel and vehicle expenses. For the community, the consequences include increased road congestion and the cost of the additional infrastructure for these developments. Increased traffic also leads to increased air pollution. Though Bend is far from being Los Angeles, this is the classic problem: one hour of travel time for a five-mile commute to work with poor air quality sounds like something most of us would probably want to avoid. Suburban development makes people more reliant on their automobiles and is less compatible with walking and biking to work. Lower density single family homes consume a lot more energy than higher density multi-story homes which tend to be smaller and share walls with neighboring units.

Principal Broker | Broker Network of Central Oregon

It seems prudent to consider the mistakes of some other cities when creating land use policies and seeking to have the best of both worlds. For example, instead of encouraging building on the outskirts of town, how about increasing the efficiency of current developments by converting to mixed use developments and building upward. The closest local example we have of mixed use development is in Northwest Crossing and the Minnesota Avenue. area with the Oxford Hotel, apartments, parking garage, and shops and restaurants below the apartments and hotel

T

he affordable housing crunch and ways of alleviating it have been on my mind these past few weeks. In Bend, some have suggested that we need to expand the urban growth boundary, providing more land for development and then build more affordable housing. There are both advantages and disadvantages to consider in taking this approach, which can encourage urban sprawl.

By Nick Nayne

Applying the mixed use concept to new developments makes more sense than expanding the Urban Growth Boundary and could help rehabilitate dilapidated older buildings and create a more appealing downtown core. Mixed use space encourages walking from one amenity to the other because of closer proximity and can increase the safety and security of a neighborhood as you have businesses on the lower level during the day and residents upstairs at night. It’s also more environmentally conscious to improve the efficiency of existing areas that already have infrastructure in place and minimize the biological footprint. It is a difficult path because often there are divergent interests between the players involved in development and land use issues as exemplified in discussions taking place at the Bend City Council.

Lots of New Flower!!!

ast week, Westword, a Denver weekly, published a list of “Top Ten Things to Expect When Your State Legalizes Marijuana.” The list is filled with simple, straightforward observations.In the spirit of that list, here is a list of “Top 10 Things NOT to Expect When Your State Legalizes Cannabis.” 10. People will not start calling it “cannabis.” For some reason, people still insist on calling it “marijuana” even though that term originated as Mexican-Spanish slang. Mexicans call it “mota” now.

WE’RE BACK OPEN, COME ON IN!

9. Despite what we were told in the propaganda film, "Reefer Madness," the rate of car crashes, manslaughter, suicide, attempted rape, and other bizarre and anti-social behavior will not increase.

8. Despite what we were told by certain members of the City of Bend’s Marijuana Advisory Committee, a “red light district” of pot shops and other vice-related businesses will not form.

Major credit cards accepted.

817 NW Hill Street, Bend, Oregon 97701

7. No children will be given pot edibles when trick-or-treating.

BEND’S PREMIERE DOWNTOWN DISPENSARY

6. People will not suddenly become educated about cannabis; prohibitionists will continue to raise the same

discredited arguments in attempts to keep cannabis businesses out of town. Fortunately, these arguments will now occur in the context of zoning ordinances rather than prison sentences. 5. Everybody will not start using cannabis. This is another trope of prohibitionists. The conversation goes like this: Staunch Prohibitionist: “Well, if we legalize it then a lot of people will start using it, and that won’t be good.” Reasonable Person: “If it’s legalized, will you start using cannabis?” Staunch Prohibitionist: “No, of course not. But other people will.” 4. People will not drink as much. That is, people will drink less. 3. Quality of life will not be destroyed. Instead, the economy will grow from all the new businesses and the extra visitors. 2. Cannabis will not be on par legally with alcohol. Despite the removal of criminal penalties and the recognition of cannabis businesses, it will not be possible to go “down to the pub” and enjoy a spliff with friends after work. 1. In response to the request for snacks from the domestic terrorists occupying a nearby local wildlife refuge, no one will send “special” brownies, thus unnecessarily prolonging a tense situation.
