~John Morter

IN RESPONSE TO “BARELY GETTING BY” (1/28) Excellent article. Keep the discussion going. How come big employers like DH&R’s Sunriver Resort continue to keep wages low while taking in big profits for their owners, a small group of millionaires. That’s the one percent syndrome Bernie Sanders is talking about. It is a Reaganomics trickle- down policy that keeps the middle and lower classes down while a select few reap big money. It needs to be fixed. Now is our chance because finally someone like Sanders is willing to stand up and fight for change. ~Jim Little via BendSource.com

SNOWSHOE VS. FATBIKING (1/21): TRAIL COURTESY We are doing our best as a user group to educate folks about trail courtesy and etiquette (including right of way and staying off of ski trails!) so that we can coexist with other users. We will continue to do so in the interest of getting along and reducing conflict. That said, I have had nothing but cordial interactions with snowshoers on the trails over the last three winters. Most defer their right of way without even giving me a chance to stop and offer passage. Many exclaim, “Wow - that looks like fun!” and we all share a smile, appreciate the day and go on our way. ~Peter Sussmann via BendSource.com

SNOWSHOE VS. FAT BIKING (1/21): A WINTER EXPERIENCE FOR NON-SKIERS As an avid member of the growing fatbike community (and skate skier who donates for grooming at Meissner, as well as xc skier and snowshoer), it saddens me to hear of suggested negative conflicts between snowshoers and fatbikers. In the several winters of fatbiking on multi-use snowshoe trails, I have never had a single negative encounter when meeting other users. Nearly every encounter has been met with smiles, amusement and curiosity. I’ve even had a few snowshoers sit on my bike and pedal for a few strokes - and sure enough I see an earto-ear grin. Not one snowshoer has grumbled about having to step to the side. Granted, we do not condone fatbikers riding on classically groomed tracks as we realize the damage done. And I would discourage large groups of bikers or perhaps not riding at peak snowshoe hours on weekends. Fatbiking is super fun and allows a winter

experience for those who are not skiers. Fatbike-specific trails are beginning to be established at Wanoga Snopark (which currently, by the way, welcomes skiers and snowshoers). Please be patient, perhaps try not to act so entitled to public lands that are for all of us to enjoy. Embrace change and the inevitable introduction of new sports. Fatbikers are nice people. Really. If you really want to gripe, worry about the people walking in BARE BOOTS on the trails. They are creating big post-holes that destroy the trail quality for everyone – but that’s another letter. ~Natalie Herse via BendSource.com

SNOWSHOE VS. FATBIKING (1/21): MORE SIGNAGE MAY HELP I’m an avid classic xcountry skier, and have been at this for over 20 years, frequenting both Swampy and Meisner snow parks. During this time, we’ve seen the rapid rise of both skate skiing and snowshoeing. Now another new winter sport appears to be gaining traction. Each of these new activities requires thoughtful consideration of trail use. Initially, when snowshoeing was gaining advocates we would encounter crushed xcountry ski tracks, which can greatly detract from the skiing experience. The subsequent creation of separate snowshoe trails and signage has helped considerably, although on multiple occasions this winter I have still encountered snowshoers or their tracks while on the xcountry trails. I think this is a continuing education problem and we can all help by politely informing people. More signage may also help. The grooming at Meisner (thank you!) has allowed both classic and skate skiing to flourish there and to generally coexist without one group hindering the other. From my experience, both groups love the outdoors and show respect and friendliness to each other. My only concern is in preserving some peaceful, classic only, non-groomed trails for those that enjoy this experience (Swampy offers this as do a side trail or two at Meisner as of now). When it comes to multi-use my question is always whether the uses involved are compatible or does one greatly diminish the experience of the other. I don’t snowshoe but it’s hard for me to imagine that walkers and bikers sharing a narrow snowshoe trail would be a good solution. So much of the enjoyment in our winter wonderland comes from the peace and quiet as well as not having to worry about jumping out of the way or wearing a rear view mirror on one’s head. I’d vote for separating these activities, and I would certainly not be in favor of adding fat biking to existing xcountry ski trails. ~John Farwell via BendSource.com

IN RESPONSE TO “A RIVER USED TO RUN THROUGH IT” (2/4) It is too bad that nothing was done without the threat of litigation. The USBR [U.S. Bureau of Reclamation], OWRD [Oregon Water Resources Department], state legislators, and the six irrigation districts all should have acted decades ago to improve the in stream flows on the Deschutes. The arrogance created by “Senior Water Rights” lulled these stakeholders into a state of defiance. Water laws need to be changed. Nature should be given the water rights “before time.” These in stream flows should be those determined by the ODFW[Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife] and DEQ [Department of Environmental Quality]to be the minimum needed for stream and wildlife health. Nature was the first user of the water, but no one stood up for nature when all the water was given away. Nature’s claim to the water still exists and should be acted upon now in Salem.

LETTER OF THE WEEK Joan and Mark – Thank you for your message about the role of major stakeholders with senior water rights in Central Oregon vs. stream and wildlife health and environmental quality. It’s a very interesting subject requiring a hard look at some serious questions. Please continue the conversation with a cup of coffee on us.

EDITORIAL Mental Health

Crisis in Oregon

n 2016 Oregon ranked worst in the nation on a report released by the non-profit Mental Health America. This problem has deep roots, and not just in Oregon. In its 2015 report, the National Alliance on Mental Illness found that private insurers undercut federal mental health parity laws by denying coverage, limiting treatment, and imposing administrative hurdles to getting treatment. Confirmation of the mental health crisis in Oregon is no surprise to those here with a loved one with a mental health issue, or to police or social workers on the front lines. Locally, between 2012 and 2015, police reports for mental health calls to the City of Bend Police Department escalated. As a result, Bend Police created the new Community Response Team, hiring three new full-time employees for the mental health unit. It was launched with the mission to protect and serve by reaching out to those in a mental health crisis, offering coordinated mental health resources and support. The Bend Police Department’s program is in partnership with Deschutes County Parole and Probation, Sage View, Shepard’s House, The Bethlehem Inn, Central Oregon Veterans Outreach, Deschutes County Mental Health, Deschutes Recovery Center, St. Charles Medical Center, Deschutes County District Attorney’s Office and the Deschutes County Mental Health Court Program (DCMHC). DCMHC is a 12 to 18-month court-supervised treatment program for mentally ill adults who have legal charges against them. Identifying those needing treatment alleviates some of the financial burden placed on the prison system for the mental health care of inmates. Unfortunately, in

Oregon, the Department of Corrections continues to be one of the top providers of mental health services in the state. Crisis Intervention training in Central Oregon has helped to improve police sensitivity when encountering calls involving a mental health crisis. Yet, for those with a family member suffering from mental illness, calling the police is usually a last resort. Few would choose to risk a loved one going to jail in order to get treatment. What is going wrong? Sen. Sara Gelser, D-Corvallis, and Oregon Health Authority Director Lynne Saxton traveled the state last fall to hear from adolescents, adults and families regarding the difficulty of accessing mental health treatment in Oregon. The Town Hall meeting in Bend was held on the COCC campus in October. The NAMI study found that private insurers are twice as likely to deny coverage for mental heath services as medical services and that mental health parity laws are unenforced in all but two states. Considering Oregon’s dead last status, this is a rallying point to hold insurers accountable to Oregon’s Mental Health Parity law, passed by the Oregon Legislature in 2005 and the federal law passed in 2008. It’s a David and Goliath moment. Let’s hope Oregon lawmakers recognize the severity of the problem in this state and get the conversation started. To help a loved one in Deschutes County in a mental health crisis: Behavioral Health helps Deschutes County residents facing serious mental health and addiction issues with a priority to Oregon Health Plan members, uninsured county residents and people in crisis.

Bend Energy Challenge

Nationwide competition to reduce energy consumption

SIDE NOTES By Corinne Boyer

By Paul Bacon 7

end is poised to become a finalist in the Georgetown University Energy Prize, placing 11th out of 50 American cities vying for a $5 million prize aimed at spurring education and innovation in reducing energy consumption. The city has until the end of this year to make the top 10, enabling it to enter the final round of the competition. The prize money will go to the community which develops the best long-term energy efficiency plan and demonstrates both its initial effectiveness and its sustainability. The winner will be decided in July 2017. Bend is represented in the competition by the Bend Energy Challenge (BEC), a project of The Environmental Center located downtown. BEC Project Director Lindsey Hardy believes the key to winning the prize is changing attitudes about saving energy. Hardy said, “Many people don’t realize what they can do to change their consumption. Our goal is to show them one person can make a difference.” Saving energy can have huge benefits for the environment, including the reduction of greenhouse gasses, which many scientists blame for the gradual increase in global temperatures. Reversing decades of manmade environmental damage may seem like an overwhelming task, so the BEC focuses on educating people about steps that are within easy reach for nearly everyone. One of BEC’s promotions is its “Do Just One Thing” program which encourages consumers to begin a simple practice every month that helps reduce energy consumption. This month’s one thing is to turn down home heating thermostats by one degree Fahrenheit. Hardy said, “For every degree, you can save three percent on your monthly heating bill.” Last month’s one thing was changing

furnace filters, which helps furnaces run more efficiently, prolongs the operating life of the furnace and contributes to cleaner indoor air. Future tips include buying drapes and rugs that help retain warmth, and using electric tea kettles to heat water instead of stovetops and microwave ovens. One way to cut down on electricity use is to install solar panels, but BEC Executive Director Mike Riley said most people think they’re too expensive. “You generally have to come up with five thousand to seventy five hundred dollars just to make solar happen. We’ve heard from a lot of people who just don’t have that much cash on hand.” Riley said households with moderate incomes who want to tap the power of the sun may be heartened by the number of resources available, including state and federal tax credits and utility incentives that can cover as much as 80 percent of the startup costs. The national competition focuses exclusively on energy consumption of electricity and natural gas by residences and municipal entities to keep the task of measurement manageable. Not included in the mix are petroleum consumption, and the energy use of commercial, industrial and transportation sectors of the economy. But Riley said that doesn’t mean his project is ignoring Bend’s business community. Riley said, “Even though their contributions to saving energy aren’t being factored into the competition, we have more than a hundred local businesses taking part in the overall effort. Some of them are letting us contact their employees directly by inviting us to speak at their employee meetings.” He said some businesses have allowed BEC to hang informational posters at their locations and some have included BEC’s educational messages in their companywide emails.

BEC urges local businesses as well as local residents to join its team by visiting its website at bendenergychallenge.org. The site, which provides a long list of informational resources, notes that some companies can receive a free energy assessment by the Green Impact Campaign, a non-profit organization which teaches small businesses how to mitigate climate change. Bend’s efforts to save energy since the beginning of the competition have produced impressive results. Citing figures provided by local utilities and the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, Hardy said that Bend’s decrease in electricity and natural gas consumption in the first half of 2015, when compared to the same period in 2014, was the equivalent of the greenhouse gas emissions of 6,883 vehicles being driven for one year. To help ensure accurate reporting of energy usage data during the competition, three major power suppliers to the Bend area—Pacific Power, Central Electric Cooperative and Cascade Natural Gas—are communicating directly with the Georgetown University Energy Prize. Pacific Power regional business manager Angela Price said her company is also participating in steering committees and providing funding to support local outreach efforts. When asked how a power company stands to gain by its customers using less power, Price replied, “We generate and supply power to our customers and it takes investment and ongoing costs to do this. The cheapest power plant to build is the one you don’t have to build.” Upcoming BEC events include Pop-up Lighting Fairs: March 23 at The Environmental Center and on April 13 at Central Oregon Community College, held in conjunction with Energy Trust of Oregon.

The FBI is warning residents of Oregon to be aware of phone scams that claim people owe money or have an unpaid ticket. The phone number used to make calls shows up as an FBI number and people have reported that the caller has threatened to arrest them. The FBI does not call people asking for money, according to a statement. The agency says people should protect their personal information and be aware of how much information is shared with social media sites. To report an Internet crime visit IC3.gov.

The Oregon Department of Consumer and Business Services released figures for Oregonians who used healthcare.gov to sign up for health insurance. According to the statement, 147,000 people have accessed insurance as of Jan. 31, which was the open enrollment deadline. The number has risen by 31 percent since 2015 when 112,000 people signed up. The department reminds Oregonians who are low income that they are eligible for reduced cost or free healthcare through Oregon’s Medicaid program, the Oregon Health Care plan. People who qualify for this service can apply at any time during the year. If individuals missed the open enrollment deadline, they may be able to apply for a special enrollment through healthcare.gov.

A federal grand jury indicted 16 people involved in the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge on the charge of Conspiracy to Impede Officers of the United States on Feb. 3. The indictment states that the occupiers used intimidation tactics and traveled to Harney County in October 2015 to warn the sheriff of “extreme civil unrest if certain demands were not met.” Furthermore, when the occupiers took over the Fish and Wildlife building on Jan. 2, they threatened to use violence against anyone behind removal attempts. The indictment also states that the 16 defendants named traveled between Nov. 2016 and Jan. 2016 “to intimidate and coerce the population of Harney County, Oregon, in order to effectuate the goals of the conspiracy.”

Central Oregon Homeless Count This year's effort leaves many uncounted By Corinne Boyer communities to assist with the count.

Vistad has also been searching for housing in transitional facilities. “Right now there’s none. I know—I’ve called them all,” he says. The waiting time for a room or an affordable housing unit has The rigors of housing stabilization are a waiting list ranging from one month far reaching. “The lack of rental units, to six years out, according to Vistad. An the cost of them when they are available, additional housing option—like searching for vacant rooms posted on Craigslist—is something he’s tried, but he says it’s too expensive. Vistad says rental application fees present another obstacle. “You should be able -Mary Marson to go some place and only pay one fee to rent instead of everybody charging you from $30 to $50—that’s the income requirements, and the fair market rent requirements—those are the ridiculous,” he says.

“We’re only able to help a fraction of the people that seek assistance from us...For probably every four calls we get we’re probably only able to help one to two.”

n a mild February afternoon, Jim Vistad watches television in a cafeteria. He sits underneath a white board with lists of chores, rules and checkout times. For the past 35 years, Vistad has called Bend home and was once a cook at the Pilot Butte Drive-In. He has watched the city grow and has witnessed the housing market for low-income earners shrink. For a few years, Vistad was a live-in caregiver for a man until the man’s death. Now he struggles with his own health complications and has suffered several heart attacks over the last decade. Mounting medical bills totaling around $500,000 and his medical condition have affected his ability to work. Most of the time, Vistad is on oxygen. “I always had a job until I had trouble with my heart,” he says. Until Vistad can find affordable housing, the Bethlehem Inn will remain home. A few weeks ago, the Central Oregon Homeless Leadership Coalition conducted a shelter count of people living in shelters. Unlike previous years, this year’s effort counted only people living in shelters—so people living in camps, cars, doubled up with other families and on the street were not accounted for. “Next

year will be that more comprehensive street count,” says Bob Moore with the COHLC. “Partnering with the homeless liaisons in the school districts will happen next year,” he adds. The Bethlehem Inn, once a motel, is a shelter for men, women and children opened in 1999. According to its website, the shelter serves 1,100 people every year and prepares 74,000 meals annually. Vistad says that everyone gets a knock on his or her door at 6 a.m., and they have to leave for the day to look for housing or employment. The shelter has a few computers to assist with job hunting and Vistad offers to help anyone looking for a food service job. “I run into people having trouble with their resume or cover letters,” he says. “I’ll help people out who need their food handlers card—I can study with them to make sure they pass.” Multiple organizations like Bethlehem Inn, Deschutes County Probation and Parole, Saving Grace and NeighborImpact were part of the 2016 shelter count. NeighborImpact is in charge of crunching the numbers and sending them to the state. Moore says the data will become available sometime in April. He says the state of Oregon relies on nonprofits and

barriers that we are just seeing over and over and over again,” says Marson.

Vistad is working with a few agencies to help find him a home. He feels like his chances are slim. “I don’t know a lot of people who have gotten housing here,” he says. If it wasn’t for Bethlehem Inn, he says he would be out on the street. “It’s comfortable here,” Vistad says. “It takes a little bit to get used to—it’s a safe place, staff is willing to help you out.” An onsite clothing room can be accessed by people staying at the shelter. Bethlehem Inn Managing Director Chris Clouart says the definition of homelessness by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development has changed. According to HUD, homelessness is defined as “an individual who lacks housing (without regard to whether the individual is a member of a family), including an individual whose primary residence during the night is a supervised public or private facility (e.g., shelters) that provides temporary living accommodations, and an individual who is a resident in transitional housing.” He says people living in motels or shelters, who don’t have homes of their own, sometimes don’t self-identify as homeless, especially people who have been living in that situation for long periods of time. Factors further contributing

Many people slip through the cracks when it comes to finding shelter or qualifying for housing assistance. “Sometimes I think what I hear anecdotally is people are maybe able to find somebody to double up with or perhaps if there are some shelter openings elsewhere, they may go to those,” says Marson with NeighborImpact. “A lot of times where we have really struggled this past year and a half with being able to get folks into some of the rental units is that there are so few rental units available, secondly because it is a seller’s market. The owners, landlords or property management can really charge a fair amount of rent,” she says.

Vistad adds that his medical debt has prevented him from finding a place. “With debt like that, you can’t get housing,” he says. This is the second time he’s needed to turn to Bethlehem Inn for a place to stay. “I know a lot of people who are not in shelter,” Vistad says. “There are more needy people than places and not enough people to help them because there are so many—that’s tough.”

Associate Director of Housing Stabilization Mary Marson manages emergency housing programs like shelters, rental assistance and longer-term rental assistance. Marson says the numbers from this year’s count are entered into a state database, which is also accessed by the federal government. She says the need for emergency housing assistance in Central Oregon is big. “We’re only able to help a fraction of the people that seek assistance from us,” she says. “For probably every four calls we get we’re probably only able to help one to two.”

to homelessness are people coping with mental illness, addiction and traumatic events. Clouart lists examples of men he has encountered like a Vietnam veteran who became an addict and a guy who lost his wife. “Someone pulled the foundation from underneath him,” Clouart says. In one way or another, “We all depend on other people to survive,” he says. “We’re trying to lessen the amount of pain in the world.”

ill you play with me?” Little Eliza Harold, age 4, asks me this question every time I see her. Being chosen as a friend is one the best things in life and it comes so easily to children. When I was a “free-range” kid, all kids were outside all day in all seasons. At least, it seemed that way. With the grownups busy and out of the way, we forged fast friendships and played our hearts out. Moving away from home to college, there was still no shortage of friends and that was my lucky fate for a long stretch. That is, until I moved alone to a city three thousand miles away. For a few months, I called friends cross-country, but that couldn’t keep loneliness from creeping in, and feeling friendless, life became so hard. It was in the middle of a February blizzard, that I met Mark Goldin, an 80-something Scrabble genius playing in a match at a local French bakery. He was a tough adversary with a charming penchant for sweets, but what I really loved about him was that he

looked forward to seeing me. I was willing to hike a mile through a foot of snow to see his friendly face. To be the face of love in friendship to someone else is really a gift, and we may never know how much it means. Each morning, driving my dad’s old truck toward Bend and into the beautiful sunrise, I often ponder things he said. I’d really like to call him up and say, “Hey, you were right about that,” because I’m just beginning to understand. One thing he was an expert on was friendship. SPECIAL FRIENDS Thinking about friendship and the faces of love brings to mind the hundreds of times he told me about his Special People. This was a group of people so important to him that he wanted to write a book about them. He would often stop and talk about each of them, making sure

not to forget one. No matter how far away in distance or time the friendship was, each of these special friends had become a part of him. What made these people extra special was that each one was mentally or physically challenged. His first special friend was Bobby Estes. Growing up in Kansas, the boys loved to ride their bikes together through town. Bobby liked the paved streets and he, Danny, liked the brick streets. The friendship was true and deep even though in time Danny grew up while Bobby remained about age nine mentally. Bobby became a regular fixture in the newsroom of the local paper and a few years ago, the news traveled from Kansas to Oregon that Bobby had passed away. I can’t help but hope they are riding their bikes together again now. Young as Eliza, elderly as Mark, challenged as Bobby, all of us can be a friend. Take the chance!

ROMANTIC LOVE Is it Real?

By Jared Rasic

“of the Roman-style.” The idea is that European medieval vernacular stories were about chivalry at first until adding “love” late in the 17th century. Though respecting the origin is important, so much has changed in the intervening years that the notions of romantic love espoused in the 1600s couldn’t be more different than they are today. Obviously, romantic love takes many forms depending on the cultural and religious norms that exist in the area. For instance, areas of Turkey and

Pizza can be Romantic, too. husband and a thoughtless one, an above-average lover and a terrible one. Somewhere in the combination of trying to be the exact person I think my partner is looking for while staying true to the weird, slightly unknowable person I am lies the reality of romantic love in the 21st Century. Historians, philosophers and psychologists have spent thousands of years trying to put their finger on the true definition of Romance, full capitals. The word “romance” is derived from the Latin origin “Romanicus” meaning

India still practice arranged marriages, which is something North American lovers can hardly imagine. Whereas an arranged marriage really has nothing to do with romantic love, being forced to marry someone while your heart belongs to another is a story we’ve heard thousands of times over thousands of years. The popularity of that trope resides in all cultural consciousness because, as humans who love deeply and want to be loved in return, it is too scary to contemplate. The conversation about romantic love

doesn’t change based on who or how you love. Whether that love takes the form of a straight or LGBTQ romance, the desired outcome is always the same: to be seen by a specific person as the person you’ve always wanted to be seen as. Although LGBTQ romance is finally becoming widely accepted culturally (at least in North America and other environs), there are still those across the world who must live in fear based on who they love.

to hooking up or whether the steadily rising divorce rate means the idea of traditional marriage is dead, but all of that misses the biggest question involved in determining true romantic love: “Is the person reflected in the eyes of your partner the person you are, the person you want to be, or a complete stranger?” The answer is never simple, but when has love ever purported to be?

Excluding all outside influences like religion, homophobia, cultural traditions and the like, truly finding romantic love is sometimes an exercise in sifting through the data. Like knowing that great sex can exist without intimacy, that deep love can sometimes mean just friendship or knowing when the difficulty in a relationship is too much or worth pushing through. We can argue all we want whether the advent of texting and selfies makes romantic love secondary

“This reminds me of a former Supreme Court Justice’s definition of pornography. I can’t define it. I know it when I feel it.”

“Romantic love connotes a consideration for what brings someone else joy. It includes empathy and selflessness, like folded laundry is foreplay. YAY BOI!!!!”

BRI RAIN 24, student “Romantic love is butterflies in your stomach. My parents once told me it’s like cocaine. It feels great but can’t last forever. It takes time to build true love.”

“There is no definition for romantic love. It’s a feeling, a connection, a bond that two people have that no one else knows or could understand. And along those lines... anything and everything can be romantic.”

“Knowing that you will always be safe. Feeling complete. Finding someone whose hand you want to hold. When you look into their eyes and see your future.”

SEAN SAMUEL KELLY 36, pet shop worker “I think it’s best defined by what Uma Thurman says in “Pulp Fiction” at the dinner table with Vincent.

The author knows all about brotherly love, first hand.

hen we were kids, I hated my brother.

I’m told that’s a normal sentiment between siblings. But I really, really hated him. My brother is only one year and 18 days younger than me, so we were destined to clash. He had a mean temper, I was overly sensitive, and we learned very quickly what buttons to push. (In fact, the first one I remember him pushing is the reset button on the NES just as my cousin and I were about to beat The Legend of Zelda for the first time ever. In that moment, I totally sympathized with Cain about the whole Abel thing.) We somewhat jokingly but in all seriousness refer to our mother as Saint Aurora. For the years my brother and I spent getting into verbal and physical fisticuffs, she not only endured and pacified us, but she only got two or three gray hairs in the process. No small miracle. Perhaps more importantly, she gave us perspective in many ways. Whenever I would declare a nasty curse against my brother, she would always counter with, “You don’t have to like him, but you can still love him. He’s your family.” My mom knows a lot about family: she was was born and raised in the Philippines where she was one of six siblings and one of 27 first cousins. She, along with virtually all of her extended family, immigrated to Ohio in the ’70s to join a budding Filipino community that quickly became her extra-extended family. I grew up surrounded by that family. And it was so much fun. Weekly family dinners consisted of no fewer than 15 people, 30 if someone was visiting from out of town. If I wasn’t sure who

an adult was, it was always a safe bet to call them “auntie” or “uncle.” And I dare anyone to defeat my cousins and me in quoting any movie made between 1997-2003. (Warning: it can’t be done.) Filipinos certainly don’t hold a monopoly on close, extended families, but I remember my friends always being surprised at how close I was with mine. Looking at it now, I realize it’s a unique kind of love that we share. We’re not perfect. We don’t always get along or agree. But, as a family, we are always there for one another. Titles like second cousin or third uncle four times removed don’t exist. Family is family. It took time for me to learn that. It was in simple moments like when we would all watch a movie together. Or in grander gestures like when my uncle passed away unexpectedly, so my entire extended family went to my aunt’s house for nine days of prayers and comforting, a Filipino tradition. I learned a lot about unconditional love from my family.

SOUND

CENTRAL SOUND By Jared Rasic

Hell, Unleashed

Exploding EDM star mixes it up By Jared Rasic 19

Born in Thunder Bay, Ontario, the Canadian electronic artist never let growing up in a small town keep him from locking down his dreams. Once he moved to Toronto, he founded the artists collective Sideways (with writing partner La+ch) and released “Stark Raving,” his first mixtape. In 2014, Hell released the VENA EP through his Sideways collective. The record is straight ahead house-driven electronic dance music (EDM). The opening track, “Venezuela,” is light and frothy falsetto dance that would play much better in a club than home alone over MacBook speakers. The third track, “Fortress,” plays with the album’s bubbly dance sound by getting a little funkier and showing what Hell could really do when it came to production. In 2015, the self-titled EP backs away from the falsetto and house beats and delves deeper into actual storytelling with his catchy dance pop. The opening track, “Sitcom,”

is self-deprecating and funny while also being a deceptive little ear worm. Then “2 Heads” has a ridiculously fun banjo sample, which combined with Hell’s much stronger and raspier vocals, makes it easy to believe the millions of Spotify streams and Youtube views. “Thumbalina” is a no- frills dance pop energizer bunny, boasting a nice piano sample and sunny vocals. “Take Me Up” hits a little harder but is still relentlessly upbeat in its desire to make everyone shake a little tail. “After Hours” slows things down a little bit and adds some introspection to the proceedings without losing Hell’s infectious sense of making sure everyone is having fun. The EP closer, “Move On,” definitely sounds like Imagine Dragons, but without the insipid lyrics and glossy hollowness. Overall, the album is energizing, if not a bit disposable, with “2 Heads” definitely being the standout track. Just based on the interest shown in “2 Heads,” Hell was signed by Columbia Records, who released

his second EP and will be releasing his debut full-length later this year. According to an interview Hell did with Radio.com, he was pretty blown away when he heard “2 Heads” on the radio for the first time. “Oh, I was super emotional. I’m a pretty emotional person so I can well up pretty easily. I would be driving around with my parents as a kid listening to the radio with them—I listened to the radio so much growing up, like classic rock. My mom would always be like, ‘One day you’re going to be on there.’ Actually hearing it on the radio was a pretty big moment for me.” Regardless of how well his debut does later this year, Coleman Hell has already made a small mark on the music world with “2 Heads,” which really doesn’t sound like any of the rest of his music. The song has an assurance the rest of the tracks don’t, as if Hell has discovered his sound and it won’t be readily apparent from what his EPs represent. For those who can’t really stand house music or EDM in general, Hell might still have something to offer. His vocals are tight and his lyrics are only improving, so it is definitely worth paying attention to this quickly developing artist. Coleman Hell Saturday, Feb. 13. 8:30 p.m. WinterFest, 344 Shevlin-Hixon Dr., Bend WinterFest admission $10 adv., $12 door

ALBUM REVIEW: “Tension” by Corner Gospel Explosion Corner Gospel Explosion shall not be pigeonholed. The debut album, “Tension,” bounces between styles that most bands need years to gain the confidence to pull off. From the dance rock album opener, “Sky is Falling (Na Na Na),” to the epic, seven-and-a-half minute closer, “Through the Fence and Out,” Corner Gospel Explosion is ready to be heard now. CGE is the brainchild of lead singer and multi-instrumentalist Bradley David Parsons, formerly of the band Wilderness. “I started the band about a year-anda-half ago as a way to get some song writing jitters out. The original lineup consisted of myself, my brother Tyler Parsons on bass, Nick Graham (from Wilderness) on guitar/keyboards and Andrew Harris on guitar. Over the last year both Andrew and Nick made separate moves to Portland and were replaced by our longtime friends and musicians Chase Mickel (keyboards) and Brandon Prinzing (guitar/vocals). Brandon and I had previously played in four other projects; they all failed miserably… so we have our fingers crossed.” “Tension” might seem like a straight ahead rock record at first listen, but that isn’t giving this selection of songs a fair shake. “Song in the Trees” is a space lounge odyssey, whereas “Under the Covers” is a throwback to 90s alt-radio. The album stretches and contracts as it goes. The direction and focus of the album even came as somewhat of a surprise for Parsons. “When writing the album, I didn’t intend there to be a concept. Once we finalized the track listing, I realized that there was a very consistent theme: the push and pull that exists in all of our lives. The place between being comfortable and making a difficult, but crucial move forward. A lot of the songs parallel things that happened in my life during the last few years and it just bled into the storytelling.” Following Corner Gospel Explosion where it goes next will be interesting and worth the ride.

oleman Hell is sitting in an interesting position. He released a free mixtape followed by an extended play (EP) titled “VENA” in 2014 and then a self-titled EP in 2015. The debut single, “2 Heads” was on the Billboard Alternative chart for over 20 weeks and is easily one of the best dance tracks to come out last year. The release date for Coleman Hell’s first full length album, "Coleman Hell" is yet to be announced, but he is one of the most hyped electronic artists on the planet right now and most of that talk is based on the strength of just six songs.

Love’s Lost and Found ART WATCH Bill Hoppe is the heart of art in Bend

of the Deschutes River. “I went really big. I’m having so much fun,” says artist James Todd Rouse, who is entering the competition with “Prometheus’ Breath.”

COCC art instructor Bill Hoppe has many irons in the fire, including co-creating a sculpture at this weekend's WinterFest.

Bill Hoppe strides through a large art studio wearing blue jeans and a black sweater, white hair rakishly curled across his brow. His office is tucked into a corner of the Pence Building at Central Oregon Community College, and it’s full to capacity with giant canvases of original work, as well as gifts from students. He clears space to show the design of “Love’s Lost and Found,” a sculpture to be co-created at WinterFest this weekend with the public and the Central Oregon Metal Artists Guild (COMAG).

“I am very happy I chose a creative life,” says Hoppe. “I feel very fulfilled.” Regarding “Love’s Lost and Found,” Hoppe explains the inspiration for the design came from an 11th Century Indian manuscript. The image of repeating squares at angles to one another was used as a mourning tool, writing the name of a love lost over and over again in between the lines. “I’ve always wanted to do something with it,” says Hoppe.

This month, Hoppe is the juror of a gallery show, curating an upcoming exhibition, creating original work in his studio, guiding a collaborative public art sculpture and teaching art at Hoppe's design for Love's Lost and Found. COCC. At 70, the artist and professor is able to count The collaborative art piece between thousands of former students.

The left San Francisco and New York, where his side is for love lost and the right side is brother was a playwright. for love found. “I have more experience

with the left side,” says Hoppe. His first love lost was Agnes, at age 23, and that will be just one of the names he includes on the sculpture. “I spent years alone raising a daughter,” says Hoppe “and my forays into romance were not very successful.” Fifteen years ago, a teaching position at COCC brought Hoppe to Bend. At the time, as a single father raising his daughter Maxamaris, he fell in love with the city and the two decided to make it their home. Hoppe’s world changed in Bend and today he shares his life with creative director Karin Roy. His zest for life includes challenging himself to new experiences. “I just started cross country skiing at age 65,” he says. “Love’s Lost and Found” will have a permanent home in Bend as public art. All are welcome to include a love lost or a love found in permanent remembrance. Which side will be more popular? Hoppe says, “We’ll see, it’s up to the public.” Love's Lost and Found WinterFest, 344 Shevlin-Hixon Dr., Bend Festival admission: $10 adv., $12 door

“Prometheus took fire from the heavens and gave it to man,” says Rouse. “This cosmic gift man ran with and harnessed from cave times until now, when fire activates everything, even our computers,” he says. Kellen Bateham, who is the president of the Central Oregon Metal Artists Guild (COMAG), is another one to watch in the competition. His fire pit sculpture “inSPIREd” is in partnership with co-creator Hunter Dahlberg, owner of Orion Forge. Their sculpture is a gas pit and Bateham says it will be large and have tables around it. Bateham is excited to see creations by Whip Pour, Gustav Sculptor, and Modern Fab, as well as Andy Wachs and Stuart Bradskin, local artists who are often placeholders in the competition. Rouse, who grew up in Bend, is coming to the competition from Portland. He says he’s not sure if he’s now an outsider, but his roots are in Central Oregon. “Now I encompass both places,” he says. “I’m happy to come back to Bend as the prodigal son to show something I’ve done in the world.” The WinterFest Fire Pit awards will be determined by three judges and a fourth People’s Choice Award will be decided by the public. In addition to the Fire Pit competition, Bateham says COMAG will have 16 members manning three booths at WinterFest with hands-on jewelry making and a blacksmith for hook-making for a small fee. Proceeds will go to COMAG’s scholarship fund. COMAG metal artists will also be helping with the fabrication of the public art sculpture “Love’s Lost and Found.”

n an age when it’s becoming more important to “treat yourself ” with massages, retail therapy, or an occasional long spa day, it’s time that treating your body and mind well comes into play, too. Often that gets overlooked, or rather buried beneath sugary desserts or greasy snacks. One company here in Central Oregon is trying to make it part of everyday life. The Juice Counter is a small-functioning business that produces a huge benefit to individual health. Started up just a few months ago, Manya Williams and Phyllis Swindell knew that the old saying, “You are what you eat,” or in this case, drink, to be absolute truth. Separately, each had her own lows, her own time and reason that brought each to a breaking point where something needed to change. Both having had a formal education in health and nutrition, they knew the correlation between what you put in and what you get out. Williams and Swindell began to use juicing as their remedy and almost immediately could feel the difference in their everyday being. This was something that they felt they needed not only to share, but also to make more accessible to the masses. Cue: The Juice Counter.

here might be states with more breweries. There might even be some with (gasp) better beer every now and then. But there’s only one Zwickelmania. On Feb. 13, more than 120 breweries across the state will open their doors wide and give attendees a chance to take tours, chat with brewers, and belt back a free sample or two. Like everything else related to Oregon beer, it’s grown precipitously over the years: more than 32,000 people visited a brewery during last year’s event, and there’s no way that number won’t grow at least a little bit in 2016. Portland is the main hub of open breweries during Zwickelmania—there will be a free shuttle that runs through no less than 21 of them between 11 a.m. and 5 p.m. The biggest event of the day, however, will be over in Astoria, where Fort George Brewery will hold its annual Festival of Dark Arts, a stout-only fest featuring music, fire dancers, blacksmith demos, an onsite tattoo artist, and 60 or so of the blackest, most diabolical beers on earth. That said, Central Oregon is hardly any slouch. For those in Bend on Feb. 13, the

grand opening of Sunriver Brewing’s new Bend location is right on Galveston Ave. where Oblivion’s taproom used to be (pretty quick makeover!). In addition to live music, a meat-and-cheese beer pairing with Primal Cuts down the street, and fire pits in the brand-spanking-new patio out back, there will be a special toast to commemorate that day’s release of Rippin Northwest Ale. This is a great reason to visit Sunriver Brewing for those who have never been (and that’s only the start of its special beers, too—check out Motorhead Black Barleywine while there.) Sunriver’s not the only brewery debuting special beers. Craft Kitchen & Brewery will have a double barrel-aged stout and stonefruit lambic on offer, and while in the Old Mill, walk on over to Crux and try some Southern Sister Experimental IPA while a brewer gives a tour of the shiny brass equipment. If in the mood to just get silly (no judging), head to Boneyard’s parking lot to enjoy “Pickles and Zwickels,” an outdoor party with El Sancho tacos and full pints (at Boneyard? Shocker!) being poured out of the Swig Rig mobile bar. Extra points for remaining upright enough to attend WinterFest later that night!

SCREEN

Hail, Coen!

The smartest filmmakers on Earth return By Jared Rasic 33 VOLUME 20 ISSUE 06 / February 11, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

eviewing a new Coen Brothers film is an exercise in futility, especially only after one viewing. Their work is never as simple as it first seems on the surface and, regardless the genre they’re dabbling in, there are always multiple layers to unpack. “Hail, Caesar!” is the latest in their almost unbroken string of classics and the film’s deceptively shallow premise only obfuscates what the Brothers Coen are really interested in exploring. The film is set during the golden age of Hollywood (1950s!!) and follows Eddie Mannix (Josh Brolin), a fixer for Capitol Pictures, a fictional studio pumping out some of the biggest movies of its day. Mannix keeps an eye on all the different films being produced and makes sure all the wheels keep turning smoothly. Whether it’s yanking a young starlet out of a risque photo shoot, paying off kidnappers or keeping the press at bay, Mannix is up to the task. The biggest budget movie shooting at Capitol is “Hail, Caesar,” a historical epic about a Roman soldier who is conflicted about the crucifixion of Jesus Christ.

The soldier is played by Baird Whitlock (George Clooney), the biggest star under contract at Capitol Pictures. When Whitlock is kidnapped, Mannix must get to the bottom of the crime before the press discovers that he's missing.

McDormand, Channing Tatum and an almost film stealing Alden Ehrenreich, the film never feels directionless, even as characters come and go without much resolution or import.

sum of its parts. There are too many scenes that exist for the witty banter and impeccable performances that don’t collate into the central thesis of the film. The embarrassment of riches the film has with its characters might be time better spent with Mannix and his ever encroaching existential despair.

All of this plot isn’t really important. What the script and direction are really interested in is the character of Eddie Mannix. On top of dealing with the most ridiculous Hollywood problems every day, Mannix is also a deeply devout Catholic who goes to confession, ahem, religiously. He feels deep guilt over small injuries, like lying to his wife about sneaking a cigarette every once and awhile. He thinks movies are important and actually something to cherish and his job requires him to shepherd all of these flawed people through their lives.

“Hail, Caesar!” feels like something of a hybrid of the Coen Bros.' earlier work. The film takes the spirituality of “A Serious Man,” the madcap energy of “O’ Brother,” the look into the golden age of Hollywood supplied by “Barton Fink” and the push back against the meaninglessness of life embodied in “The Big Lebowski” and “Burn After Reading.” Yet, “Caesar” is wholly its own with entrancingly relentless pacing, lovingly choreographed swimming and dancing and a refreshing optimism about the importance of motion pictures to modern society.

Watching Mannix (and, by extension, Brolin) maneuver his way through a hefty selection of some of the finest actors working is where the true joy of the film lies. With excellent supporting turns from Clooney, Ralph Fiennes, Scarlett Johansson, Tilda Swinton, Frances

The best work of the Coen Bros. manages to feel simultaneously tangential and essential, as if every moment of the movie matters and that every single disparate piece adds up to an almost flawless whole. On first viewing, “Caesar” is astoundingly entertaining, but doesn’t quite equal the

FEATURED FILM EVENTS

This is middle tier Coen Brothers work. There is too much going on to call it a straightforward comedy, but “Hail, Caesar!” still plays like a lark for the filmmaking duo. Luckily, even “lesser” Coen Bros. is still superior to 90 percent of the films released in a given year, but that’s not to say this film won’t grow in estimation after repeat viewings. No real work of art can truly be appreciated on first glance and the Coens are artists unsurpassed in the medium of film.

GOYA - VISIONS OF FLESH AND BLOOD

PRETTY IN PINK 30TH ANNIVERSARY

BEHIND THE EMERALD CURTAIN

Presented by Arts and Architecture in Cinema, along with Fathom Events, SpectiCast and Seventh Art Productions, this film is a guided tour through the National Gallery in London. The current exhibit: the works of full-blown genius, Francisco Goya. For people who can’t make it to one of the man’s exhibits, this is the perfect opportunity to catch his work.

Sometimes, when things are looking down, there are only the films of John Hughes to pull someone out of an existential crisis. “Pretty in Pink” tells the story of a love triangle that never was, a Duckie becoming a man and a young woman finding her Blaine. Bring the kids. Show them what life was like in 1986.

Just in case there weren’t enough things to get furious about, this documentary takes a look at the impacts of shady logging practices in Oregon. Specifically, industrial-style clear-cutting, road building and pesticide application. After the film will be a conversation with Oregon Sierra Club’s Conservation Program Coordinator for State Forests.

FILM SHORTS By Jared Rasic

Valentine’s Day Special! Two ‘Simplicity’ Foot Treatments for $110 Our Valentine's Day Special is all weekend... The 5th Wave

what the world needs: A parody of 50 Shades of Grey from the makers of “A Haunted House” and the “Scary Movie” franchise. If Marlon Wayans’ brand of humor was smarter and more pointed, 50 Shades would be ripe for satire, but if this is half as lazy as his recent output, expect a laugh-free experience. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

THE 5TH WAVE: This one is perfect if you like a bit of a love triangle with your post-apocalyptic, young-adult thrillers. Chloe Grace Moretz stars as Cassie Sullivan, a young woman searching for her brother after an alien invasion. This could be good YA entertainment (“Maze Runner”) or bad (“Twilight”), but either way, it will probably make all of the money. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

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 film is more of an action movie than a political thriller, which most definitely works in its favor. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

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

THE BOY: Extremely creepy trailers are effectively selling this horror thriller about an American woman hired as a nanny for a young boy in a remote English village. The catch? The boy is actually a life-size doll that the parents treat as though it is a living child. When the nanny is left alone with the doll, it starts moving and doing other horrifying things. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

THE CHOICE: Another year, another Nicholas Sparks adaptation about a man falling in love. This time it’s love at first sight with the next door neighbor. With Tom Wilkinson in the cast, one hopes it is better than all the Sparks adaptations since “The Notebook,” but there’s just no way to predict these things. Tissues for crying into are probably recommended. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX DADDY’S HOME: Brad (Will Ferrell) and Dusty (Mark Wahlberg) are a step-father and father facing off for the love of two children in this humiliation comedy about modern day family dynamics. How far will they go? Watch and see. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

DEADPOOL: Everyone’s favorite Merc with a Mouth makes the transition to his first solo big screen outing. We last saw the character Deadpool in “X-Men Origins- Wolverine,” one of the most disastrous super hero films of all time. This new flick should not only make everyone forget about how dumb Deadpool

DIRTY GRANDPA: This appears on first glance to be another nail in the coffin of the once great Robert De Niro’s legacy, but it might also be a cute time waster. Are we as a society ready to view De Niro as a mean old man, making the lives of everyone around him worse? Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX.

THE FINEST HOURS: An adaptation of a true story about a harrowing Coast Guard rescue in 1952. When a huge storm breaks the SS Pendleton in twain, 30 sailors are stuck inside the sinking ship. A heroic coxswain (all right!) takes three men and a lifeboat out to the ship to try to save some lives. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

HAIL, CAESAR!: It’s about time we got a new Coen Brothers movie. “Hail, Caesar!” looks like it harkens back to their classic Hollywood satire “Barton Fink.” This one stars Josh Brolin, George Clooney, Ralph Fiennes, Jonah Hill, ScarJo and Channing Tatum and tells the story of a Hollywood fixer who has to track down a kidnapped movie star. Even the worst Coen Bros. flick is better than most anything else, but this one looks to be another classic. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

JANE GOT A GUN: Natalie Portman plays Jane Hammond, a woman targeted by an old gang she rode with in the wild west. She teams up with an ex-fiancé to fight them and protect the family she has built. This film had legendary production issues with the director and several of the actors leaving after the production process had already begun. The fact that the movie was even finished is a testament to how good the Black Listed script must be. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

KUNG FU PANDA 3: “Kung Fu Panda 2” was a highlight in the recent onslaught of sequel-itus animated films of the last few years. Let’s hope this one has the heart and soul of the previous entries, as well as the eye-popping animation and exciting action sequences this franchise is known for. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX. PRIDE AND PREJUDICE AND ZOMBIES: Everyone likes a good mash-up, but who knows whether this will stand the test. This takes the actual story and characters from “Pride and Prejudice,” but puts them in the middle of a world-wide zombie plague. Expect some gooey violence and some anachronistic hi-jinx during all of the zombie mayhem. Old Mill Stadium 16 & 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 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 and then repeat until dry. Old Mill Stadium & IMAX

Cinema OUTSIDE Oceanfront Pacific Reef Hotel debuts outdoor theater

GO HERE By Brian Jennings

By Brian Jennings 37

The Children’s Forest of Central Oregon is offering an array of activities for children and their families this winter. One program is an annual Eagle Watch Celebration at Round Butte Overlook Park in Culver, Feb. 27-28.

he Pacific Reef Hotel in Gold Beach, Oregon, billboards its new oceanfront outdoor theater as state-ofthe-art. Viewers might label it using many other superlatives. It is another first for Oregon: the hotel industry’s first oceanfront outdoor theater. The Pacific Reef Adventure Theater is a smart-technology glass screen measuring 33 feet wide and 12 feet high. It is positioned along the hotel’s direct access to the sandy beach where there are abundant tide pools. Right now the Adventure Theater is showing a video production featuring the many treasures of the southern coast’s hidden region, including one of Oregon’s most iconic rivers, the Rogue, where famous western writer Zane Grey spent much time fishing and penning many of his popular books. Today the Rogue offers world-class rafting, fishing, hiking, and summer jet boat tours. Jet boats stop upriver at the tiny town of Agness where the historic Lucas Lodge serves family-style fried chicken lunches and dinners. Served from May to Oct. 15, the lodge’s fried chicken has attracted thousands of hungry adventurers for years. The Agness Post Office is one of just two in the U.S. served only by boat. Other attractions in the area include two state parks: Boardman and Pistol River. The Boardman State Park, located between Gold Beach and Brookings, offers numerous short hikes leading to hidden and private beaches. In addition, there are opportunities for windsurfing, kayaking, biking, horseback riding on the beach, golfing, and other recreational activities. Gold Beach was first named ‘Ellensburg’

in the 1850s but later became known as Gold Beach in recognition of hundreds of placer miners who extracted gold from a nearby beach where the Rogue River met the ocean. Today the population of Gold Beach is approximately 2,500 full-time residents. The Pacific Reef Hotel was established in 2008 on six acres of beach front. Developer and owner Gene Pranger has an extensive background in advertising with one of the nation’s top agencies. The Pacific Reef offers superior ocean view accommodations that include a hotel, motel, condos and vacation rentals. In addition to uncrowded beaches, the hotel features the Chowder House restaurant. Dealing with the seasonal demands of a resort hotel can be challenging, so Pranger brainstormed how a unique attraction might help boost room occupancy rates year-round. Remembering his fondness for outdoor theaters in his youth, the idea for the outdoor Adventure Theater at the Pacific Reef was born. For the past year Pranger and his staff have been testing the theater, which is now open to visitors. He says his goal was to provide tourists with a unique look at the hidden treasures the southern Oregon coast has to offer. His production team captured aerial video footage from two helicopters, searching for sights not seen by those driving at ground level on Highway 101, the coast’s main north-south route. The high-tech theater screen provides a translucent see-through view during the day. The screen then fogs over in the evening, allowing his produced seasonal videos to

project onto it. Gene says he strives for seasonal video themes that will inspire Pacific Reef guests. They include summer and holiday activities and a romantic video theme that will be shown in the first quarter of the year. Future plans call for showings that will be broadcast to each room’s television, providing convenience and a ‘port in the storm’ in case of inclement weather. The hotel has also installed a whale cam that captures real-time visuals of the surf and a close-up opportunity for whale and seal sightings. This, too, will eventually be available to hotel guests in their rooms. Thus far, the response to the trend-setting innovation has been overwhelmingly positive, Pranger says. Trip Advisor, widely used as a source of user-reviewed travel information, shows high praise for the theater, including comments such as “gorgeous video footage” and “awesome video screen that tells you places to visit.” The Adventure Theater is grabbing the attention of the hospitality industry, which is always in search of new and innovative amenities for tourists. Citing early data, Pranger is cautiously optimistic about his investment. He says he’ll have a solid idea of the theater’s full economic impact by this fall. For now he’s happy to be on the cusp of a cutting edge technological niche that will help spotlight the hidden treasures of the southern Oregon coast.

The Children’s Forest of Central Oregon provides a network of outdoor places and programs dedicated to engage children in the outdoors. Its goal is to provide kids the opportunity to learn and explore the outdoors through educational programs. The non-profit also provides teachers with a suite of resources to help make field trip planning easier. The Eagle Watch Celebration begins at 10 a.m. and continues to 4 p.m. and includes viewing of bald and golden eagles, games and activities.

Snowshoe with a Forest Ranger Through March, Discover Your Forest, in collaboration with Mt. Bachelor and the Deschutes National Forest, is offering snowshoe excursions with a Forest Ranger at Mt. Bachelor. It’s part of the organization’s annual interpretive snow tours, which focus on the ecology, geology, and wildlife of the Cascades. Interested participants meet at the Forest Service snowshoeing hut at Mt. Bachelor’s West Village at 10 a.m. and 1:30 p.m. on weekends. Tours last approximately 90 minutes and snowshoes are provided for the tour. No prior experience is necessary. Participants must be 10 years or older and should dress for cold weather. Programs are free but a donation of five dollars is suggested to help the non-profit continue to provide educational programming and volunteer support to the Deschutes and Ochoco National Forests and the Crooked River National Grassland – the focus of Discover Your Forest’s mission. Also offered are interpretive ski and snowboard tours on Mt. Bachelor’s groomed runs. This tour lasts an hour and begins at the top of the Pine Marten lift at 2 p.m. Participants must have the appropriate equipment and lift tickets. The latest snowshoe and ski information is available by dialing the Ranger hotline at 541-383-4055.

330-0774 www.tajpalacebend.com A robin’s life. Photo by Jim Anderson.

he American Robin is one of the most common native birds found throughout Central Oregon and it's usually the first on the list for anyone who develops an interest in birds, whether age six or 96. Robins are everywhere, but there’s more to a robin than meets the eye. The robins seen here in winter are not the ones seen in summer. These winter robins are down from the north, even as far away as Alaska. While they’re here pillaging juniper berries, old apples and other fruit — either still on the trees or on the ground —our robins are true snow birds in Sacramento and other places where the weather is a bit milder. Robins go after food in a group, that way, when one robin discovers food, the others latch onto it quickly. There’s also better protection from predators in numbers. Robins locate worms and underground insects not only by watching for them, but listening as well. Those northern robins pillaging juniper berries MUST have water! Without abundant water, robins can develop serious gastric problems. Some people think they’re drunk, but the real problem is indigestion. The berries begin to ferment and the birds suffer with serious stomach cramps. The results are a bunch of very uncomfortable robins, and some of the messiest stuff you can imagine plopping all over vehicles parked near juniper trees. In some years there can be thousands of robins wintering in Central Oregon. According to Tom Crabtree, who runs the annual Christmas Bird Count, we had over 18,985 robins here in 1990, and the low was only 44 in 1981. Around mid-February, we will be hard pressed to see even one robin for about a week. The northern bunch have departed and our robins haven’t returned

from sunbathing in California. However, as soon as they arrive, we’ll know it. They are brighter to look at, and we will both hear and see the males defending their territory by sound and force. During the annual raptor count my wife and I conduct in upper Deschutes and parts of Jefferson County we count and watch the robins around the Culver area pretty closely. It’s not uncommon for us to arrive in the morning, before the previous evening’s frost has melted, and find robins hopping along slowly listening for worms with frost still on the grasses. The worms are feeding on warm soil heated by composting hay near the surface, and unwittingly they become food for the wintering robins. When our robins do return they will begin to build nests in areas where old nests still exist. That’s one reason the old nests should not be destroyed. To my knowledge there are no rules for where robins build nests. Maybe predation is in site selection, especially if there are a lot of outdoor or feral cats to contend with, but in my 80 years of watching robins, I’ve seen them in so many places that defy bird rules for nesting, that I just appreciate where they do nest, and often marvel at it. Then there’s the off-color robin. Yes, at times all white and with pink eyes with no pigment in the skin; that’s a true albino, but a leucistic robin is more the norm. They can be splotched with dark feathers and white feathers, or be pure white, but if the eyes are dark, it’s not an albino. Watching birds is always a delight, Good People, and being in on the life and times of our American Robin is always a lot of fun and educational — even if they do leave nasty piles on the roof of our cars and gobble up strawberries in our gardens.

ADVICE GODDESS

Inaction Figure

—Disturbed Unfortunately, drooling while napping is not considered a form of multitasking. It’s understandable that you’re losing respect for your girlfriend, given her newfound leadership in the Occupy The Couch movement. Now, maybe she is just lazy, or maybe, like dieters who decide to eat like walruses over the holidays, she’s decided to take some lazytime. However, because you describe her as pretty industrious when she’s working, it’s possible that her descent into human slipcoverhood comes out of how frustratingly scarce jobs are in certain professions. When you’re hardworking and good at your job, the answer to “Where do you see yourself a year from now?” isn’t supposed to be “On a corner with a cardboard sign, begging for change.” The sense that productivity has become unproductive can trigger an emotional response called “low mood,” marked by fatigue, deep pessimism, feelings of worthlessness, changes in appetite and sleep, and a slowing of motivation (symptoms also seen in depression). Psychiatrist and evolutionary psychologist Randolph Nesse believes that low mood evolved to stop us from wasting our energy by persisting in fruitless endeavors, like waiting around for our bison dinner to grab a drink at a watering hole that’s run dry. (Pointless persistence was especially likely to be fatal a million or so years before the creation of 7-Elevens and fast-food drive-thrus.) To understand why our psychology would be set up like this—to stick its foot out and trip us—it helps to recognize that our emotions are basically traffic directors for our behavior, designed to maximize our survival and reproductive success, not our happiness. Accordingly, Nesse explains that the “disengagement” from motivation that accompanies low mood serves a number of purposes: to immediately prevent further losses, to make us rethink what we’re doing, and to signal to others that we need care. (Ticket to Hugsville, please.)

If your girlfriend is experiencing low mood, the last thing she needs is the sense that her job loss will soon have the loss of her boo to keep it company. Let her know that you love her and are there for her, and then tell her about Nesse’s thinking on low mood, which might help her scavenge enough hope to start thinking outside the, uh, bed. Physical action is another emotion-changer—even if you have to force it. For example, research by psychologist James Laird finds that busting out smiles actually makes people happier. Research by biopsychologist Timothy Puetz finds that acting energized—like by regularly doing 20 moderately paced minutes on an exercise bike—actually energizes, with the ensuing raised heart rate and various surging biochemicals basically standing in for force-feeding a 5-Hour Energy drink to that ugly low mood. Cognitive-behavioral therapy, which uses reason to help people dig out of their emotional problems, could also be helpful. However, because your girlfriend’s idea of productivity now seems to involve simply sitting in the dark rather than lying in the dark, you might take on the therapeutic preliminaries: Find the therapist; make the appointment; and be there to drive her at the appointed time. However, you should also be prepared for her to refuse to get in the car when that time comes. That said, your being something of a pushy jerk for the woman you love will probably mean a lot. It just might be the pushy she needs to start living through FOMO—fear of missing out—instead of fear of missing out on an afternoon of making paisley patterns on her face with the couch.

41 VOLUME 20 ISSUE 06 / February 11, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

My girlfriend got laid off four months ago, along with many of her co-workers. She is not making a serious attempt to find a job and is just living off unemployment benefits. She stays up until morning watching TV and sleeps until the late afternoon. I figured that she may be depressed, so I encouraged her to go to counseling and to volunteer or take a course so she would feel productive, but she refused. She has a great work ethic when she’s employed, so I’m very puzzled by this. Worse yet, I’m quickly losing respect for her.

The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual, doesn’t bother to differentiate between the “adaptive” low mood Nesse is talking about and depression caused by malfunctioning brain chemistry. The DSM’s diagnosis of depression just involves taking count: Five or more almost daily symptoms (fatigue, pessimism, etc.) lasting for more than two weeks? Congratulations! You’re depressed. But what’s important to note from Nesse’s work is that depression isn’t necessarily a sign of brain dysfunction. And there’s a lot of hope in this, because if your symptoms have an environmental reason, maybe you can see your way to an environmental remedy.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): “I would not talk so much about myself if there were anybody else whom I knew as well,” said the philosopher and naturalist Henry David Thoreau. In accordance with your astrological constitution, Leo, I authorize you to use this declaration as your own almost any time you feel like it. But I do suggest that you make an exception to the rule during the next four weeks. In my opinion, it will be time to focus on increasing your understanding of the people you care about—even if that effort takes time and energy away from your quest for ultimate self-knowledge. Don’t worry: You can return to emphasizing Thoreau’s perspective by the equinox.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): In the long-running TV show M*A*S*H*, the character known as Sidney Freedman was a psychiatrist who did his best to nurture the mental health of the soldiers in his care. He sometimes departed from conventional therapeutic approaches. In the series finale, he delivered the following speech, which I believe is highly pertinent to your current quest for good mental hygiene: “I told you people something a long time ago, and it’s just as pertinent today as it was then. Ladies and gentlemen, take my advice: Pull down your pants and slide on the ice.”

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You are entering the inquisitive phase of your astrological cycle. One of the best ways to thrive during the coming weeks will be to ask more questions than you have asked since you were five years old. Curiosity and good listening skills will be superpowers that you should you strive to activate. For now, what matters most is not what you already know but rather what you need to find out. It’s a favorable time to gather information about riddles and mysteries that have perplexed you for a long time. Be super-receptive and extra wide-eyed!

ARIES (March 21-April 19): “Old paint on a canvas, as it ages, sometimes becomes transparent,” said playwright Lillian Hellman. “When that happens, it is possible to see the original lines: a tree will show through a woman’s dress, a child makes way for a dog, a large boat is no longer on an open sea.” Why does this happen? Because the painter changed his or her mind. Early images were replaced, painted over. I suspect that a metaphorical version of this is underway in your life. Certain choices you made in the past got supplanted by choices you made later. They disappeared from view. But now those older possibilities are re-emerging for your consideration. I’m not saying what you should do about them. I simply want to alert you to their ghostly presence so they don’t cause confusion.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Poet Barbara Hamby says the Russian word ostyt can be used to describe “a cup of tea that is too hot, but after you walk to the next room, and return, it is too cool.” A little birdie told me that this may be an apt metaphor for a current situation in your life. I completely understand if you wish the tea had lost less of its original warmth, and was exactly the temperature you like, neither burning nor tepid. But that won’t happen unless you try to reheat it, which would change the taste. So what should you do? One way or the other, a compromise will be necessary. Do you want the lukewarm tea or the hot tea with a different flavor?

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Let’s talk about your mouth. Since your words flow out of it, you use it to create and shape a lot of your experiences. Your mouth is also the place where food and drink enter your body, as well as some of the air you breathe. So it’s crucial to fueling every move you make. You experience the beloved sense of taste in your mouth. You use your mouth for kissing and other amorous activities. With its help, you sing, moan, shout, and laugh. It’s quite expressive, too. As you move its many muscles, you send out an array of emotional signals. I’ve provided this summary in the hope of inspiring you to celebrate your mouth, Taurus. It’s prime time to enhance your appreciation of its blessings!

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Coloring books for adults are best-sellers. Tightly-wound folks relieve their stress by using crayons and markers to brighten up black-and-white drawings of butterflies, flowers, mandalas, and pretty fishes. I highly recommend that you avoid this type of recreation in the next three weeks, as it would send the wrong message to your subconscious mind. You should expend as little energy as possible working within frameworks that others have made. You need to focus on designing and constructing your own frameworks.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): The Old Testament book of Leviticus presents a long list of forbidden activities, and declares that anyone who commits them should be punished. You’re not supposed to get tattoos, have messy hair, consult oracles, work on Sunday, wear clothes that blend wool and linen, plant different seeds in the same field, or eat snails, prawns, pigs, and crabs. (It’s OK to buy slaves, though.) We laugh at how absurd it would be for us to obey these outdated rules and prohibitions, and yet many of us retain a superstitious loyalty toward guidelines and beliefs that are almost equally obsolete. Here’s the good news, Cancerian: Now is an excellent time to dismantle or purge your own fossilized formulas.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Russian writer Ivan Turgenev was a Scorpio. Midway through his first novel Rudin, his main character Dmitrii Nikolaevich Rudin alludes to a problem that affects many Scorpios. “Do you see that apple tree?” Rudin asks a woman companion. “It is broken by the weight and abundance of its own fruit.” Ouch! I want very much for you Scorpios to be spared a fate like that in the coming weeks. That’s why I propose that you scheme about how you will express the immense creativity that will be welling up in you. Don’t let your lush and succulent output go to waste.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Asking you Sagittarians to be patient may be akin to ordering a bonfire to burn more politely. But it’s my duty to inform you of the cosmic tendencies, so I will request your forbearance for now. How about some nuances to make it more palatable? Here’s a quote from author David G. Allen: “Patience is the calm acceptance that things can happen in a different order than the one you have in mind.” Novelist Gustave Flaubert: “Talent is a long patience.” French playwright Moliere: “Trees that are slow to grow bear the best fruit.” Writer Ann Lamott: “Hope is a revolutionary patience.” I’ve saved the best for last, from Russian novelist Irène Némirovsky: “Waiting is erotic.” CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): “If you ask for help it comes, but not in any way you’d ever know.” Poet Gary Snyder said that, and now I’m passing it on to you, Capricorn. The coming weeks will be an excellent time for you to think deeply about the precise kinds of help you would most benefit from -- even as you loosen up your expectations about how your requests for aid might be fulfilled. Be aggressive in seeking assistance, but ready and willing to be surprised as it arrives.

only, 153 is your lucky number. Mauve and olive are your colors of destiny, the platypus is your power animal, and torn burlap mended with silk thread is your magic texture. I realize that all of this may sound odd, but it’s the straightup truth. The nature of the cosmic rhythms are rather erratic right now. To be in maximum alignment with the irregular opportunities that are headed your way, you should probably make yourself magnificently mysterious, even to yourself. To quote an old teacher, this might be a good time to be “so unpredictable that not even you yourself knows what’s going to happen.”

TAKE ME HOME Good Things in Small Packages By Nick Nayne

Principal Broker | Broker Network of Central Oregon

Smaller homes are greener homes In addition to the fact that smaller homes are usually less expensive than larger homes, they also require less energy. Smaller green homes are popular for many reasons including energy efficiency and lower utility bills. Paying down debt One of the primary reasons to downsize is economics. Having less debt is appealing and very liberating. Millennials, many of whom are burdened with student loan payments and lower wages, may find it

easier to qualify to purchase a smaller home that is less expensive. That’s helpful when trying to dig one’s way out of student loan debt. With high density urban planning comes design-savvy multi-functional furniture being developed for smaller homes. Another upside of a smaller home is the greater affordability of high-end finishes and design. Decluttering The hard part is decluttering, but how many extra rooms filled with things does one need to be happy? Smaller homes require fewer furnishings, meaning less money spent on extra things for which there is no space. Retirees also look for smaller homes with an eye to less maintenance, and this is interesting to millennials as well. Many people are rethinking the bigger-is-better maxim. A smaller home with little or no mortgage, efficient design and organization, ecologically friendly, with low maintenance, and lower power costs, proves that good things do come in small packages.

ownsizing is a popular trend manifesting right now in millennials’ and baby boomers’ penchant for smaller and alternative homes. Retirees downsizing may look to purchase a smaller home with the equity in their existing homes. Budget-conscious millennials look to smaller homes for affordability. With the two largest segments of the population driving this trend, it’s likely it will be around for quite a while. Both groups are looking at smaller, more affordable housing for new chapters in their lives.

egal cannabis could be America’s fastest growing industry. Americans bought $4.6 billion worth of legal cannabis in 2014, $5.4 billion in 2015, and this year, Americans are expected to spend $6.7 billion on legal cannabis. See where this is going? Sales are expected to hit $21.8 billion just four years from now, in 2020. Nonmedical adult use sales – so-called recreational use – more than doubled from 2014 to 2015, from $351 million to $998 million. The Oregon Liquor Control Commission's impending licensure of recreational cannabis stores later this year should help ensure another huge jump in recreational sales for 2016. These forecasts are estimates provided by two cannabis investment firms: ArcView Group in San Francisco and New Frontier Data in Washington, DC. They are based on state tax receipts and sales data from cannabis businesses. The Wall Street crowd is all atwitter. According to CNNMoney, there are already dozens of publicly traded pot stocks. With the emergence of national cannabis brands, several are ready to immediately move into potential new markets such as California and Massachusetts. Clearly, cannabis is going corporate. This year may be the tipping point in legalization. Already, 86 percent of Americans live in states with some form of legal use. This year, seven states are considering legalization of medicinal or recreational use. Several other states have sent officials on listening tours to places such as Colorado with the goal of bringing back recommendations on legalization legislation.

The industry faces some unique challenges. The two most immediate challenges are the higher tax rates and restricted access to banking services, issues that Oregon Rep. Earl Blumenauer has championed in Congress. In addition, the possibility of a policy change toward cannabis after the presidential election and potentially industry-stopping litigation before the Supreme Court loom large over the industry for some investors. However, as best as anyone can tell, legal cannabis sales are rapidly catching up to illegal cannabis. In 2012, experts estimated illegal sales to total between $15 to $30 billion in the United States. If legalization is to be a success, the volume of illegal sales will need to drop as legal sales climb. The next presidential administration will likely undertake a detailed analysis of this issue to inform the ongoing legalization conversation at the federal level. Despite soaring adult cannabis sales, teen cannabis use is down slightly over the past five years. That’s according to the 2015 Monitoring the Future Survey, which is a nationwide survey of 8th, 10th, and 12th graders conducted yearly by the University of Michigan and the National Institute on Drug Abuse. This contradicts claims by members of Congress such as Rep. Andy Harris (R- Maryland), who said last year that “relaxing [cannabis] laws clearly leads to more teenage drug use.” The nascent cannabis industry is still in the early days of legalization, but these numbers show an underestimated demand and a large existing market with no manifest down side.
