OPINION Letters and Rep. Carl Wilson, the HB 4060 passed with flying colors.

I can’t agree with you more, Gary. Having worked as a counselor for the Bend LaPine School District until 2010, I have observed the reduction of counselors and the general increase of unmet mental health needs, families and students who are dissatisfied with lack of counseling, college and career planning, and a sharp increase in youth deaths by suicide. It is time for the District to partner with their local higher education institution, OSU and constituents to restore counseling staffing levels in all schools - in addition to providing this team of counselors with appropriate support and leadership to function as intended. Thank you for shedding light on this important issue.

~Bruce Meland

~Suzanne Schmidt via BendSource.com

IN RESPONSE TO "A LETTER TO THE BEND-LA PINE SCHOOL BOARD," (3/3): FUNDING FOR ART AND SCIENCE NEEDED, TOO I agree that important student needs are being compromised for technology in school and as a parent of three school age children, I don’t think they need more technology. I also did not have iPads for my children, on purpose. Aside from funding counselors, money is also needed for art and science in schools. ~Judy Fuentes via BendSource.com

HOUSE BILL 4060 PASSES WITH FLYING COLORS I am a new member of OIHFA [Oregon Industrial Hemp Farmers Association] and my main interest is harvesting and storing the hemp stalks after seed harvest and finding good markets for the hemp fiber. I have a small farm in Silverton and plan on planting a small plot (10,000 sq. ft.) of hemp of a promising variety for the Willamette Valley. I have lived near Bend for 30 years and had at one time a business near Corvallis baling and storing grass seed straw for market. I also worked at OSU [Oregon State University] and for an engineering firm developing markets for grass seed straw as well as methods of baling and processing straw after the grass seed harvest. I was the first one to operate a round baler in the Willamette Valley in the early 1980s for an engineering firm who had a contract with the state of Oregon. Last fall I visited hemp farmers near Dauphin, Manitoba, gathering information on how they manage and harvest the hemp stalks after harvesting the hemp seeds for Manitoba Harvest. The farmers in this area of a very fertile ancient lake bed were the first to supply hemp seed to Manitoba Harvest in the mid 1990s. Thanks to the great work of Courtney Moran

HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY?

IN RESPONSE TO “BEND’S AFFORDABLE HOUSING CRISIS” (BENT BLOG) Our land should be much cheaper. We can thank the state of Oregon for not approving our UGB [Urban Growth Boundary] expansion years ago. I could go on but won’t. ~Jim Johnson via BendSource.com

CONGRATULATIONS... AND THANKS FOR NOTHING! I still can’t believe the voting population of Bend is so penny wise and pothole foolish. Give me a break... Yeah... like one buck for a twenty gallon fill up is going to thrust us all into a state of poverty. You’ll approve every silly bond issue for the park district but when it comes to doing something that would actually help our cratered roads, uhh, sorry, can’t spare a nickel. Am I the only one who noticed the vote no ad’s unsubstantiated claim that there’s all this money for road repairs just sitting idle in the city budget... Okay, where, how much and why isn’t it being spent? And if the money does actually exist, why does it have to be an either/ or situation? Why couldn’t it be combined with the nickel a gallon tax to really address the problem and get after it in a hurry. While I’m venting here’s another example of the mass stupidity in all this. For once, we had the opportunity to make the tourist hoards pay some of the tab for chewing up our roads. They don’t pay property taxes or local licensing fees do they? So celebrate your victory, you are getting what you deserve... a couple more bucks a month and roads that look like the surface of the moon...Whoopie! ~Walt Tomsic

“TRUMPTY DUMPTY” Trumpty Dumpty stood on a wall; Trumpty Dumpty was having a ball, His ambitions presidential, His knowledge inconsequential, Trumpty’s pronouncements so random, With contradictions occurring in tandem.

themselves or trees in areas that haven’t been developed yet or specific trees in parks and public places. Just like zoning and building restrictions, public easements and solar access ordinances we can support a tree ordinance to protect the beauty of our town and our property values. ~Maureen Sweeney

IN REPLY TO “TREE ORDINANCE NEEDED” (2/25) Thank you Mary Ellen for starting this much-needed community conversation about protecting our awesome trees here in Bend. I know for a fact that many of the Ponderosas are over 200 years old. The town of Bend was incorporated in 1904 so to think that many of these trees are 100 years older than our town makes them truly historic. Just imagine the changes these trees have experienced. Many cities in Oregon have tree ordinances and they can be written in many ways. The ordinance can protect certain trees that are designated by private property owners

LETTER OF THE WEEK Maureen – Thank you for joining the conversation about Bend’s trees. As you mentioned, several cities in Oregon recognize the historic, aesthetic, health and economic value of trees with various tree preservation ordinances and requirements in place. As development continues in Bend, a thoughtful approach to trees should be considered. Please keep the conversation going with a cup of coffee on us. Pick up your Palate gift card at the Source Weekly office.

Underage Drinking Problem

WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / March 17, 2016 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

eschutes County has a higher rate of teen drinking than the rest of the state, and that’s in a state that has a higher rate than nationally. Bend is famous for its year-round festivities, and yes, a lot of drinking happens, not that anyone wants to talk about it like that. Microbreweries are a pillar of the Central Oregon economy. Just how big of a problem underage drinking and binge drinking is today in Deschutes County is best told by the kids themselves. The annual Oregon Student Wellness Survey includes data for every county, self-reported by students. What the report shows is that by the 11th grade, 43.9 percent of students in the county drank alcohol in the previous 30 days and 25 percent had consumed five or more drinks within a couple of hours (statewide, the number of students who self-reported binge drinking is 18.9 percent). Seventy percent of students said it would be easy to get beer, wine or hard liquor.

There are four refusal skills videos produced by Deschutes County – two for middle school use and two for high school use. These videos are a supplement to the evidence-based substance abuse prevention curriculum provided by the school districts. The videos were completed by a coalition youth committee last year under the guidance of prevention specialists from Deschutes County Health Services. Local youth and adults volunteered their time as actors. According to the Student Wellness Survey, students in Deschutes County

are more likely to talk to parents about drugs and alcohol use than kids throughout the rest of the state. Deschutes County students are also more likely to have had a class about the dangers of drinking and drugs, yet the number of students drinking and using drugs is still higher here than elsewhere in Oregon. Interestingly, 40.3 percent of students in Deschutes County reported they lived with someone who is a problem drinker or alcoholic. Students were also more likely in Deschutes County to say they rode in a car driven by a parent who had been drinking: 16.8 percent locally versus 13.9 in the state. Deschutes County began its high risk drinking effort in 2012 and last year the Shared Future Coalition was formed. Julie Spackman and Evan Thibeau are the co-directors of the new organization, which combines two separate programs, one focused on drinking and the other on drug abuse. The Shared Future Coalition website is: sharedfuturecoalition.org “There is not a silver bullet,” says Spackman, who sees a need for a comprehensive approach. “One thing alone doesn’t solve it. We have to look at how our whole community is wired,” she says. The Shared Future Coalition includes youth, parents, civic organizations, churches, government, law enforcement, parks, businesses, media partners, health care professionals, schools, and youth-serving organizations, among others. It’s a community-wide effort for substance abuse prevention that deserves our support. SW

Commentary Just Add Water

The river flowed cold and clear. Seasonal fluctuations were minimal due to the porous geology and spring-fed nature of the upper basin. Spawning gravels for trout were abundant, there was a diversity of aquatic insects essential for food, deep pools for cover and large woody debris gave shelter. The streamsides were stable, with life-sustaining wetlands hosting a multitude of critters, including spotted frogs. Imagine a prolific stream like that flowing through our community today. Wickiup Dam changed all of that. Wickiup Dam and its reservoir plugged the natural flow of the Deschutes River. The 200,000 acre-feet that it stores over the winter are now flushed down the river in the summer, like a toilet. The Oregon Fish and Wildlife Commission realized the harm damming the river would have by reducing winter flows and requested no less than 200 cfs (cubic feet per second) minimum winter flows. The figure was felt to be the smallest flow that the river could tolerate in the winter to keep the river healthy. The State Engineer denied the request in the early 1950s, and ruled that only 20 cfs would be sufficient. The historic flows of 700-900 cfs were reduced to next to nothing. Today the fishery is all but gone. The spawning gravels are silted in like Mirror Pond. The river is highly manipulated. Flows are reduced to a trickle in the wintertime and run at flood stage in the summer, eroding the banks. It is managed as an irrigation ditch with no concern for other public values.

The sad list of abuses goes on. There are dozens of studies on the upper river from a variety of sources. Two local organizations have attempted to solve the problem for decades by consensus building and working with the irrigation districts. They have had some success in the river below Bend. However their work has not improved flows at all above town. The problem is not for lack of water. Studies have shown there is enough for both the farmlands and instream flows. The problem is the rampant waste by the districts. Often, only one-third of the water diverted gets to the crops. Two-thirds of the water diverted is absurdly wasted in systems that were developed before there was any concept of conservation. Flood irrigation is still being used in many locations. Sixty percent of Central Oregon Irrigation District's (COID) patrons still use old methods that are only 30-45 percent efficient. There is not a demand system available for farmers to request only the amount of water they need. How can that amount of waste be considered a beneficial use? There is even more trouble on the horizon. Our local irrigation districts are becoming mini energy companies. Most of COI’s revenues now come from generating electricity, not from farmers. They have plans for several additional hydro projects. It will become nigh impossible to get water back instream if they profit from the hydro potential in the canals. After decades of failed “collaborative” efforts to restore flows in the Upper Deschutes, it’s no wonder that lawsuits have been filed. If we want to have a healthy river that supports fish and wildlife and serves everyone, not just irrigation districts, it’s time to act now before it’s too late. There are very few options left other than filing lawsuits. SW - Craig Lacy Past Chairman Coalition for the Deschutes

ew people alive remember what the Upper Deschutes River was like before Wickiup Dam was built in 1949. It was then regarded as one of the finest fisheries in the US. In 1914 Clyde McKay received the Field and Stream award for the second largest streamcaught rainbow on a fly in the US. The City of Bend used to have fish fries on the Fourth of July. A few anglers would go out and provide over 3,000 fish caught with rod and reel over a four-day period. There was once a 125-fish daily bag limit on the Deschutes.

Bend Fire Department is Faster Than Ever

SIDE NOTES By Sherron Lumley

New triage system improves response times and cuts costs

Bend Fire responds to flames at Tetherow Golf Course

hen people think of the fire department, they think of local heroes, a big red truck, and more likely than not, a firemen’s pole. It’s almost certain that finance and budgeting don’t enter into the picture. The reality is that in order for response times, proper medical care, general public assistance and safety to fall into place, the financial aspect must be addressed on a daily basis. Firefighters have long been a public favorite and yet, the daily workings and behind-the-scenes life are for the most part a mystery. The Source was able to take a sneak-peek into one station, observing, asking questions and getting to know a bit more about what makes their world go round. Dave Howe, Battalion Chief of Administration at Bend Fire Department (BFD), took time out of his busy schedule to assist in informing the public on the state of the department. “We love this community deeply and we are committed to do our best to keep people safe, resilient and healthy in a cost-effective and forward-looking manner,” he says. Howe understands the trust and the responsibility given to them, and upholding that trust is something the Bend Fire Department does not take lightly. Battalion Chief Jeff Blake agrees as he discusses the importance of balancing fund management with the growth of the population. Blake’s management responsibility is to keep his firefighters alive, making sure they get the resources needed within the budget, and within

a range in which the taxpayers deem manageable. It’s only in the past year that the department has achieved a “decent balance in staffing,” says Blake. Last year the department began reassessing its system, asking “How can we do better?” This seems to be the underlying theme in the department. “Once you become a firefighter, you never stop going to school,” says Blake. On the surface, this means that they never stop training, taking tests and formulating real-life situations to prepare for any possibility. Scratch the surface, however, and it’s easy to associate this model with the ongoing self-evaluation that led to an innovative triage system now in place. The department was assessing itself, asking “How can we better serve the people of Bend with the means that we have now?” Research from other departments, states, and other avenues of life brought together the idea that Bend Fire could better aid those in need by understanding the level of response required by the call. Howe explains that in the past they had to send out fully equipped engines, with their most experienced fighters to assist when that extensive level of response wasn’t necessary. It was very much an all-or-nothing situation, and “nothing” just wasn’t an option. While other calls were coming in, their hands were tied and response times began to suffer. They knew something had to be done, and this led to the development of the triage system that includes

a Quick Response Vehicle (QRV) and the Service Response Vehicle (SRV). These vehicles improve response time and result in resources better spent, says Howe. Many types of calls come in at all hours of the day and night and all calls vary in importance. There is no need to send out a big red, for example, on an illegal burn call. This is where the triage system comes into place. Dispatch receives a call and determines which mode of aid is best suited for each situation. The QRVs are used for the higher priority, but nonfire emergency calls. The SRVs are used for the lower priority situations, such as the illegal burning example. The extra vehicles were added without additional funds, and will result in more savings as the department continues to manage both its time and costs. Capt. Scott Wyman, Jeremy South, and Mitch Webb all work at Station 303. A shift for these guys is 48 hours on and 96 off. They eat, sleep, sweat, talk, laugh and live almost a third of their professional lives with each other. Capt. Wyman discusses what kind of person it takes to be able to cope with this kind of daily work. He points out that it’s not only a highly physical job, but also a highly emotional one. “We see most people when they are at their worst,” says Wyman, “when they or a loved one is in some sort of distress.” A big part of their job is reassuring and comforting people. “Sometimes it’s medical assistance we give out, but often times a hug is what’s most needed,” he says. SW

Bend—A 911 caller reported flames shooting from the chimney of the Tetherow Golf Course, 61240 Skyline Ranch Rd. Fire crews used the ladder truck to extinguish the fire in the chimney. Crews spent time inspecting the attic and the top of the chimney to ensure the fire was contained to the flue itself. “Tetherow’s employees reacted properly to the incident and ensured the safety of all the occupants,” according to the emergency incident report released by Deputy Fire Marshal Dan Derlacki. The Tetherow flue was professionally cleaned six months ago, and will be further inspected before being used again. Bend Fire urges everyone to get flues cleaned and inspected at least once a year to prevent the buildup of creosote, the leading cause of flue fires. “Burning hot fires with well-seasoned wood helps prevent the building of creosote as well,” says the Bend Fire Marshal.

Gov. Brown Signs Bill Eliminating Coal, Adding Renewable Energy Salem—Gov. Kate Brown signed Senate Bill 1547, increasing renewable energy and eliminating coal from Oregon’s energy sources. This bill requires electric companies to increase renewable energy in the electricity supply to 50 percent by 2040. “Now, Oregon will be less reliant on fossil fuels and shift our focus to clean energy. I’m proud to sign a bill that moves Oregon forward, together with the shared values of current and future generations,” said Gov. Brown, in a statement.

>>BEND’S TECHNOLOGY PIONEERS OPEN FOR BUSINESS Humanoid robots, cost-effective space travel and high tech trail maps ahead By Sherron Lumley 11

> TIMBER TOWN TO TECH FRONTIER In 1916, the two biggest pine mills in the world launched operations in Bend. Within a few decades, the mills were running out of timber, and by 1994, Bend’s era as a timber town ended. Just one generation later, a new age is upon the city. Last month, Sen. Ron Wyden noted Bend is on the cusp of becoming a tech mecca, and at the most recent Economic Development of Central Oregon (EDCO) pub talk, this became clear. Three tech startups presented: Trailhead Labs, i3D MFG, and Bold Robotics. Old St. Francis was packed to capacity with standing room only and the crowd listened attentively, because if there is one thing Bend knows, it’s that times change.

> BOLD

ROBOTICS: HUMANOID AND HELPFUL “This is a big moment

for robotics,”says Mark Silliman, founder of the tech startup Bold Robotics in Bend. Robots have existed since the 1970s, he explains, but in September of 2015 came a major breakthrough. Now, not only are robots collaborative, they are also under $50,000. “This means that accessibility is up, and the price is down.” His company is creating a drag and drop interface that makes robots work. His humanoid robot Abbe, named by his daughters, is just the third interactive robot in Oregon. As the saying goes, this is not his first rodeo. The 32-year-old father of four daughters (ages 6, 4, 2 and newborn) has already successfully launched five tech startups. The most recent was Smart Waiver, used by the NFL Super Bowl and Major League Baseball.

He and his wife relocated to Bend from Chicago just over six years ago, initially for a specific reason. “I’m probably one of the only people in the world who moved to Oregon for a tax benefit,” he says. Oregon, a state without sales tax, is immune to affiliate nexus taxes, something that was threatening his business in Illinois. He describes himself as an unemployable hothead who started making companies. His love for robotics first manifested in college when he was part of a university research team studying nuclear waste, but it was the robotics lab on campus that

Abbe the robot. Photo by Mark Silliman

gained his fascination. “Early access was critical,” he says. At that time, a basic robot cost millions of dollars. Today, a collaborative robot is about the price of a new car. Abbe is a humanoid robot, similar in size to humans. Silliman explains that was once considered unnecessary. However, “What we learned from Fukushima [Japan’s worst nuclear disaster of March 2011] is that to interact in an environment designed for humans requires robots similar in size and shape to humans,” he says. “Now they are designing a robot to go into Fukushima for exploratory purposes, to close some valves,” he says. He’s traveling to Japan and South Korea frequently these days, a journey that starts with a long bus ride to Portland. That ride to Portland could become more comfortable if his next prediction for self-driving cars proves correct. “Autonomous cars will introduce a new era,” he says, “and this will happen in less than 10 years.” It’s almost a given, he explains, with Toyota earmarking $1 billion for development with a nine-year timeline. Google has pinned its sights on eight years, and Tesla, Uber and BMW are in the autonomous car race, too. Robots will likely be specialized, he foresees, such as one to deep clean the carpet and another one to do the dishes. “We won’t all own a robot, but renting it sounds great.” He says in Japan, robots are seen as helpers and positive influences, whereas in the U.S., this isn’t yet the case. Medical applications are numerous, he notes. In addition to mild level eldercare, such as reminding people to take medication, exoskeletons

ne of the most exciting things about Bend is that it inspires people who have a spirit of adventure and zest for life. Through technology, new worlds are opening that didn’t exist last year, and some don’t exist yet, but soon will. Bend is home to some of the most innovative entrepreneurs in the world, and their enthusiasm bubbles over for the frontiers they are exploring.

are an emerging robotic technology that will help people in wheelchairs who are paralyzed to walk on their own. Robots already exist for nano-surgery, such as the da Vinci® robot used by St. Charles Hospital for minimally invasive surgery. “The next step will be to add a network,” he says. “That means that a doctor anywhere in the world could do surgery remotely in Bend.” Cooking might be another robot chore. “Not the art of cooking,” he says, “but, ‘Make me pasta.’”

> TRAILHEAD LABS: REC MEETS TECH Trailhead Labs’ chief technology officer, Jereme Monteau, relocated to Bend from the Bay Area in September. The company creates software to support parks and trails, using a common language and interactive maps to help people plan and experience outdoor adventures. The National Park Service will celebrate its 100th anniversary on Aug. 25, and Trailhead Labs is helping usher in a new era of

dren, Orien, 4 and Denali, 2, they briefly considered moving to Portland, but found that it felt too urban after visiting Bend. Although it was difficult to leave behind a network of friends, one thing that was easy was selling their Bay Area home, for which they received eight offers in two weeks. What they have found now that they have made the move, Monteau says, is that “Bend is a good place for folks when lifestyle becomes the focus.” Trailhead Labs is now one of many companies exploring “distributed teams.” This means that not all employees work in the same city. Monteau says this is increasingly common in the tech sector. After 16 years in Silicon Valley, he finds Bend’s tech sector to be a big surprise. “Even before I got here, people began reaching out to me,” he says. He has found it to be a close-knit, collaborative community that is not just focused on tech, but also on entrepreneurship. “I was not expecting that,” he said. The Monteaus enjoy the beautiful Cascades, good coffee, and above all, “It’s been great for our kids,” he says.

web-based outer-spacial applications for park websites. “One of the pain points from parks is that data is siloed,” Monteau explained to the EDCO group. “Park websites are the last place people look for information,” he says, but his company is changing that. Trailhead Labs was co-founded in Silicon Valley three years ago by Monteau and Ryan Branciforte to provide public agencies with web-based, rich, interactive maps and a common language for trails and parks. “The parks and rec community is underserved by technology in general,” says Monteau. “Our mission is to get people outside, giving people better technology to do that,” he says. One of the company’s core products is a platform for mapping and presenting curated content across a broad diversity of outdoor assets. Today, the company works with nonprofits, municipal governments, and state and national parks throughout the United States, including the Portland Intertwine Alliance in Oregon and Washington. Monteau, 38, originally from Alaska, was recruited to Silicon Valley in ’99 right out of college, and spent the last 16 years in the San Francisco Bay Area. He met his wife Ariel, who is from Santa Fe, in a rock climbing gym in 2000, and the couple discovered Central Oregon together on a trip to Smith Rock. With two young chil-

> I3D MFG™: 3-D PRINTED PARTS FOR

SPACECRAFT

Some people travel by foot, others prefer a rocket. Disruptive innovation is buzzing in Bend at i3D MFG™, a tech startup in the 3-D metal printing business with double digit sales growth over the past three years. The “disruptive” concept in a nutshell is that through innovation new markets are created. Commercial space travel, for example, is a new market made possible by emerging technology. The market for 3-D metal printing is projected to grow from just under $1 billion today to $8 billion in the next four years and could be closer to $20 billion, says the company’s CEO, Erin Stone. The last space race was not commercial, she told the EDCO audience. Today with multiple companies exploring commercial space travel, i3D MFG serves six of the top 10 space companies globally. At the EDCO meeting, Stone and her business partner, Chief Strategic Officer Chad Cooper, passed around a spaceship part made by the company. She explained that 3-D metal printing creates 100 percent dense parts using very fine layers of metal powder micro-welded together by a 400-watt laser. Though the technology may be mind-boggling, it’s easy to understand why ultra dense parts would be considered superior for rockets and satellites.

The company is currently one of only eight in the country that specializes in 3D metal printing. Its focus is predominantly the aerospace industry, particularly space craft. In addition to aerospace, 20 percent of its clients are in the medical sector and 20 percent are in defense. There are other applications for 3-D metal printing, including recreational gear, and the automotive and energy sectors. Stone says that this new technology complements traditional manufacturing by allowing industries to design and produce disruptive, complex parts that cannot be traditionally machined nor molded. “The 3D metal printing industry is projected to grow significantly faster than the rest of the 3D printing market due to strong growth in 3D printed, metal, finished production parts,” says Stone. “We love to partner with local machine shops to offer a complete range of services to our customers or theirs,” she says. Benefits of 3-D metal printing include reducing part weights by 70 percent, eliminating assemblies, gaskets and potential part failure points by printing assemblies as single parts. “It’s cost-effective,” says Stone, and that’s good business. The company’s vision is to be the leading disruptive innovator for the 3D metal printing industry. With the tsunami of demand it is experiencing, that goal may be reached in the near future. The company has two locations, one in Bend and one in The Dalles. “We love Oregon, especially Central Oregon and all it has to offer in terms of natural beauty and fun communities. The advantages far outweigh any inconveniences,” Stone says.

> STARTUP SECRET SAUCE One thing the three tech firms have in common, is that they each have clients who demand what very few others can provide. Bold Robotic’s CEO has learned a few lessons about startups. He says the most important matter is to begin with a client, before going down the road two to three years in development. Another issue he sees in Bend is a mindset that employers don’t have to pay as much because it’s Bend. “Of course we have to compete to attract the best in the world,” he says. “It’s wrong and unhealthy and messes everything up to pay low wages,” he says. “People come to Bend on purpose and that passion is attractive.” Central Oregon is already well-integrated into the knowledge culture, and the tech sector in Bend is expected to continue to grow. High tech output grew in the Bend-Redmond metro area by 19 percentage points above the national average from 2009 to 2014, according to the Milken Institute’s “2015 Best Performing Cities.” The city’s business-friendly environment, welcoming tech community, well-educated workforce, natural beauty and high quality of life will likely continue to make it attractive to tech entrepreneurs for years to come.

The spirit of enterprising, hardworking folks lives on in Bend, and it’s still more common to see work boots than wingtips on a walk through downtown. Bendites may prefer to be modest, but by many measures, the city is thriving. Today Bend is known as a recreation destination,

with the tourism sector bringing in more than two million visitors and $650 million annually to the local economy. The high quality of life makes Bend a popular retirement destination, and lifestyle and recreational opportunities also make it a magnet for startups. In 2016, there are approximately 6,500 businesses in Bend, according to the city’s economic development department, and entrepreneurship is propelling excitement for the future.

end-Redmond ranked eighth nationally overall in the small cities category of the “2015 Best Performing Cities,” report by the Milken Institute, a national economic think tank. That represents a gain of 38 spots, up from 46th place in 2014, showing that the city is experiencing a rapid metamorphosis. In the category of high tech, Bend happens to be outperforming the top three cities in its peer group. Among the top 10 small cities, all but Bend have a four-year university, but that is soon to change as Oregon State University - Cascades will open its Bend campus in September. Economic development goals are staying a step ahead of the population growth and demographic changes that the Oregon Office of Economic Analysis forecasts to continue in Deschutes County well into the future. Growth, along with tax policy, interest rates, market corrections and the national business cycle affect Bend, but for now, the Great Recession is fading into distant memory and optimism is gaining momentum.

Education and health employment up, manufacturing down The Oregon Office of Economic Analysis shows Oregon’s leading indicators of air freight, housing permits and new incorporations are improving, but manufacturing is declining, and this held true in Bend. Manufacturing employed 4,500 people here in 2015, losing 300 jobs between July and December, and dropping 2.2 percent in the 12-month period ending December 2015, according to the U.S. Department of Labor. Other sectors are growing. Mining, logging, and construction grew 2.1 percent, employing 4,800 people. Professional and business services grew 1.3 percent, employing 8,000.

The Bureau of Labor counted 9,500 people in the Bend-Redmond area employed by the government, up 2.2 percent. This includes postal workers, law enforcement, fire protection, forest workers, and other federal, state and municipal employees. Leisure and hospitality employed 10,100 people, with no significant growth or decline. The education and health services category grew the most, up 5.2 percent with 12,100 people employed in December 2015.

ky says assessed values are going up higher than the city predicted and the value of real estate that the city is able to tax is skyrocketing. The City of Bend’s Comprehensive Annual Financial report for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2015, shows property taxes increased by $3.4 million (13.0 percent) from the prior year due. This was due to an increase in property tax assessed values and an additional assessment for the Fire District Levy. Ryan Anmerongen with ReMax Key Properties in Bend, says, “We’re staying busy.” He says they are seeing “much demand coming into town, both people retiring and younger folks who want to experience Central Oregon.”

people in Bend, whatever they choose, really have a career path and a lifetime of opportunities ahead,” she says. Last week, Economic Development of Central Oregon (EDCO) brought speakers from two national think tanks to Bend for the organization’s annual luncheon. The Milken Institute economist concluded that a favorable business climate supports economic growth, a well-educated workforce attracts firms, and Oregon, perceived as a high-tech state, will continue toattract tech firms.

Challenges considered EDCO’s keynote speaker Nicole Kaeding, an economist with the Tax Foundation, one of the nation’s oldest

think tanks, shared that Oregon’s rank for the state’s business tax climate is 11th best in the country. However, the state’s corporate tax rank is 37th. Tax strengths in Oregon include the lack of a sales tax, no marriage penalty and no capital stock tax or real estate transfer tax. Tax weaknesses here include a high personal income tax rate with multiple brackets, a high corporate income tax rate and the estate tax. Roger Lee, executive director of EDCO, is aware of a few other challenges to the Oregon business climate. He says there is not enough venture capital in Oregon. “We’ve been a flyover state,” he says. Taking a proactive stance, EDCO has formed a stable of 130 volunteer experts to help young companies succeed in Central Oregon. “Part of our ethos is helping creative people take it to the next level,” Lee says. Four sectors of business thriving in Central Oregon include “brew, bio, rec, and tech.” These top performers include companies in the bio-science and biomedical industry, breweries, recreation and technology. Lee sees opportunity for small companies to move to Bend and then scale larger into the traded sector, which includes products traded internationally. Bend is in the midst of a transformation into a top small city with advanced education and professional opportunities, higher wages, steady job growth, climbing real estate values and thoughtful economic development. Hundreds of people in town take the time to attend economic development and city council meetings, volunteer, mentor and share in the vision of making the city the best it can be. SW

Hemp in the High Desert

For the next generation of farmers, the past could be the future By Michael Hughes

or some people, farming is just part of their DNA. This is natural when one’s livelihood is literally rooted to the earth. As the seasons change, a farmer’s internal clock ticks in time as our planet spins and turns. This dance of life often continues for many generations, as knowledge and wisdom are passed from parents and grandparents to children. Central Oregon has many small family farms. Undoubtedly, some will want to explore hemp as a potential option. Like other high value crops, hemp will require special attention to be grown here in the High Desert. The uncertainty of late frost in the spring, makes direct seeding a hit or miss proposition. Thus, the use of various propagation techniques and seedlings will be essential. If done right, hemp can be a niche crop that uses little water, and can be raised in a sustainable way in this area. It can become a high value crop grown on non-high value farm land. In 2015, the Oregon Department of Agriculture sought and received a legal opinion from the Oregon Attorney General preventing the use of greenhouses, cutting, and seedlings in the production of hemp in Oregon. This would have hampered hemp in many parts of Oregon. However, the Oregon legislature stepped in during the 2016 session and passed legislation that specifically allowed the use of greenhouses, cuttings and seedlings. The legislature has sent a clear message that it wants to promote the hemp

industry in Oregon.

opportunities for family farms. Smaller operations have to be diversified and often have a niche crop. For many small farms in 2016, this could be hemp.

Chances are that the ODA will have many more people seeking registration this year, including here in Central Oregon. This could become a very beneficial crop for small family farms.

in the ground. Oregon originally had 13 licensees in 2015. Many licensees in Oregon in 2015 did not have access to seeds and that is why many were unable to

plant crops. In other states with hemp programs, the agriculture departments or universities have permits with the DEA to import certified seed for their programs. This means their producers have access to stable genetics, critical to modern hemp production, which requires crops to have less than .3 percent of THC. The Oregon Department of Agriculture did not get a DEA permit to import certified seeds in 2015 and they are not going to do so in 2016. The DEA still considers hemp and viable seeds to be marijuana. Therefore, without a DEA import permit, producers are not allowed under federal law to import seeds from either foreign countries or other states. Breeding cannabis is a science, especially with regard to altering cannabinoid levels to minute amounts. It often takes many years to develop stable, certifiable seeds of dioecious plants. Genetic drift, especially regarding cannabinoid levels, is very frequent in the first few generations of progeny. This could lead to serious issues for producers such as embargos or criminal prosecution. SW Michael Hughes lives outside of Bend with his wife Krissy. They are developing their farming operation in Deschutes County. He was one of a handful of producers in the state able to plant and harvest hemp in 2015. Hughes is an attorney and farmer with over 20 years of cannabis production and breeding experience. He grew up on a farm in Nebraska and has studied hemp his entire life. His family has a long history of hemp production that predates the Civil War.

Training the Future Workforce

BendPoly defines a new brand of tech education By Brian Jennings

Amber Caisse, a recent graduate of BendPoly.

BendPoly is the brainchild of Oregonian Bruce Cleveland who splits his time between the Bay Area and Bend. He serves as president of BendPoly. “In order to play in the technology sector you need to have a talent supply chain," he says. The academy is building a set of programs to support that. Cleveland says Bend Polytechnic Academy is a professional skills academy, the purpose of which is to “provide the vocational skills that students – particularly liberal arts students – need in order to secure their first job.” He describes the academy as "the ninth semester" for students. The academy is currently focusing on providing skills for digital marketing, a high growth component in the tech world, where according to economic forecasts, 150,000 jobs will be generated by the year 2020. “Companies depend on rapidly evolving application software

to run their digital marketing functions,” says Cleveland. “These are skills not taught in the traditional university curriculum. We’re filling the gap.” He says that BendPoly looks at what the tech sector wants, and then provides a hands-on program where students can learn to use the application software. They are given projects at the end of the six- to-eight week course and, once they graduate, they are better prepared to apply for in-demand tech jobs. The academy conducted its first course last summer at the Bend Tech Center with 16 students. Of the students looking for jobs at the end of the session, BendPoly placed 60 percent of them into companies in Bend and throughout Oregon. This summer the academy will increase the size of its class to 20 students, and George Fox University in Newberg will serve as host of the program. Amber Caisse of Bend is one of the students who graduated from the first cycle at BendPoly. A native of Seattle, she and her husband moved to Bend three years ago without jobs. Like many newcomers, they wanted to move from the frenzy of the big city to one with a better quality of life, less traffic, shorter travel times, and ample recreational opportunities. Not having a job, Caisse took the opportunity to return to school to complete a master’s degree in business programs from Concordia University. She has an undergraduate degree in English. But at the end of her master’s program she says she didn’t have a clear picture of how she was going to find work in Bend. That’s when a BendPoly opportunity presented itself, and she says she “jumped at the chance.” Now, she is a specialist who develops

marketing content for Kollective Technology, which expanded its offices from the Silicon Valley and established its headquarters in Bend. She says that about half of the California office staff and most of the executive staff moved to Bend.“BendPoly was the bridge between my education and getting placed in a job. The reality is that having a degree doesn’t mean you can get a job,” she says. Caisse says that the academy provided her with specific training that opened the door for her. “I would have never gotten the job with Kollective without BendPoly. Kollective told me they would not have considered me had they not had the referral from the academy.” The program Caisse took at the academy was an intensive digital marketing course that she couldn’t get in her MBA program. Working digital marketing leaders from throughout the country were brought in to teach current information necessary for the industry that she says was invaluable. She not only learned the latest application technology but also the language that helped her through the interview process with Kollective. Caisse says the experience improved her chance of making something out of her degree. Once she received a job offer, she was also able to circle back with BendPoly President, Bruce Cleveland, for advice on how to analyze the offer and move forward. Caisse is one who thinks the Bend labor force is changing to meet the demands of the tech industry. “I see a lot of people with a lot of heart who will do what it takes to make it in Bend.” Not only does she see people like herself moving to Bend in search of a higher quality of life, but she says OSU’s four-year university will help increase the talent pool among local residents. “I see the job landscape changing rapidly,” she says. She agrees with Senator Wyden’s assessment that Bend is on the cusp of becoming a tech mecca. Without all the distractions and lengthy commute times of big cities, Caisse says tech workers are more productive in Bend. “Bend is defining the way it does tech. We’re defining a new brand of tech, and it’s exciting.” SW

hen Sen. Ron Wyden recently told an economic roundtable of tech leaders that Bend is on the verge of becoming a high-tech mecca, his statement affirmed what many others also sense is happening. For years the knock on Bend was that the region didn’t have the skilled labor force to attract tech firms to the region. That dynamic appears to be changing. Oregon State University’s Cascade campus will matriculate its first class in the fall and BendPoly, a tech academy, is already open.

ALBUM REVIEW

Pimpin' the Funk

By Jared Rasic

Pay for play By Angela Moore

endrick Lamar’s “Untitled Unmastered” is the polar opposite of Kanye’s new album, “The Life of Pablo.” Where “The Life of Pablo” is an unfocused and experimental joyride through Kanye West’s superego, “Untitled Unmastered” is a powerful statement of intent on the part of Lamar, another Grammy-winning rapper.

submitted

Lamar grew up in Compton, the birthplace of West Coast gangsta rap. As a child, he watched Tupac and Dr. Dre film the music video for “California Love,” which solidified his connection to hiphop for life. Lamar had a few minor successes with mixtapes, verses and independent releases, but it was his 2012 major label debut, “good kid, m.A.A.d city,” and his absolutely incendiary single, “Backseat Freestyle,” that brought him national attention.

The Pimps of Joytime are all lined up and ready to funk you up.

imps of Joytime is an east-coast native band with a funky and rare soulful sound that has the ability to haunt its listeners with the howls and a one-of-a-kind beat interpretation that can only come from a deep understanding of what funk was, is, and can be. Performing roughly 90 shows a year, Pimps of Joytime’s lead guitarist and singer, known to all as Brian J, took time out of his schedule to talk with the Source Weekly about what makes their music theirs, what makes a solid performance and also about the upcoming show at The Volcanic Theatre Pub on March 24. When asked how he would describe the music created by Pimps of Joytime, J says simply, “It’s a groove-dance party… it’s a pretty funky situation.” Music isn’t always refereed to as a “situation” unless it has more than just sound to show for itself. A situation is more all encompassing; it involves more than just calculated sound directed at swarms of people. A situation is something that is experi-

enced, participated in, and remembered.

passion your business.”

It is achieved by the Pimps of Joytime, who create a sound that is as rare as it is familiar. The familiarity comes from the funky beat and guitar plucks that force a nod in the shoulders and a tap in the feet. The rarity comes from the manner in which the head and body are almost hypnotized to move: The head nods, but sways with the rhythm. The feet tap with the beat and all ten toes seem to want to participate in the groove, causing each digit to tense and release making the rest of the foot, leg, body and soul follow.

This isn’t the first time Pimps of Joytime has played in Bend. It was years ago and J recalls the good vibes that came with playing in such a music-oriented town. “Energy and connection to the crowd,” says J, is what makes for a solid show. This talented artist speaks about the importance of having a connection with the crowd, a rapport and a mutual energy that can be felt from each other.

Cracking into the business of playing music on a stage, getting further enough along to be labeled a “professional,” and then being able to pay rent with those earnings is something of a dream for most. J feels fortunate to be able to do what he loves as his job. It’s the goal of many and the reality of few. “There are struggles in any profession that a person can choose to do,” he says. “It’s definitely challenging making your art or your

A good, excited crowd can activate the groove, he says. He adds, going to shows, regardless of size and venue, a show-goer can sense the emotions just as well as the performers can. The mood can be felt. J wants the people of Bend to come and enjoy all that they have to offer. Bring the want-to, the smiles and the desire to have a good time. They’ll bring the funks and grooves, all in great form. SW Pimps of Joytime Thur., March 24, 9 p.m., Volcanic Theater Pub, 70 Century Dr., Bend $13 adv., $15 door

In 2015 he released “To Pimp A Butterfly,” a lush and volcanic masterpiece of self-reflection, anger and loss. TPAB was not only the best hip-hop album of 2015, but the finest record of the year, regardless of genre. Not everyone likes hip-hop music, but failing to find the genius in this record would be a shortcoming of the listener. “Untitled Unmastered” isn’t quite a mixtape, but it isn’t really an EP, either. The record is eight untitled and un-mastered demos from “TPAB,” but doesn’t feel like a collection of outtakes. A similar comparison can be made with West’s “The Life of Pablo,” but it is much more apt here. Lamar’s work, ranging from “good kid” to now, tackles the narrative of fighting the instinct to break bad in order to become the greatest person possible. Kendrick is searching for the means to become a butterfly and with lyrics like “Am I mortal man or make believe?” he comes closer to that metamorphosis. “Untitled Unmastered” is another home run from Lamar and probably not the only one we will get from him in 2016. The man is prolific, profound and has something to say that everyone, even those without ears attuned to hip-hop, should hear. SW

he Smithereens have been around for a long time. In the last 36 years of its existence, the band has released every single type of record imaginable, from Christmas albums, to greatest hits albums, to records filled exclusively with Beatles covers. The band has shown a drive that downright makes the rest of us look bad.

WELCOME DR. MARK GOODMAN! DESERT ORTHOPEDICS is pleased to welcome longtime Central Oregon Resident Dr. Mark Goodman to our Medical Team! He will be an incredible addition to the Desert Orthopedics practice with his background in Sports Medicine; specializing in the diagnosis and non-operative treatment of conditions of the spine, shoulder, hip, and knee, as well as the comprehensive care of issues surrounding athletes and active patients.

The Smithereens were formed in 1980 when Scotch Plains, New Jersey-native Pat DiNizio met Jim Babjak, Mike Mesaros and Dennis Diken, who had all just graduated from high school in Carteret, N.J. After a few lineup changes and false starts (and even a brief period as a five-piece), the Smithereens were made official in the mid-1980s. The band released two EPs, one in 1980 (“Girls About Town”) and one in 1983 (“Beauty and Sadness”), but it was failing to gain any traction. Eventually, a demo of the band’s music landed on the desk of an executive for Enigma Records who remembered them from when he was a college deejay and, just like that, the band had its very first record deal. The album, “Especially For You,” hit stores in 1986, showcasing perfectly the band’s blend of Kinks-style songwrit-

Private Compassionate Euthanasia

Even after Mike Mesaros left the band in 2006 and was replaced by Severo Jornacion, a super fan who already knew all the songs, they found their rhythm almost instantly. The band’s most recent studio album, “2011,” includes tracks evoking 1960s London power pop and “As Long As You Are Near Me,” feels like Elvis Costello’s deep back catalogue. As openly as the band wears its influences on its sleeves, its originals could only have come from a band that came up the way it did. SW

ing, New Wave influenced vocals and a power pop interpretation of the Beatles earlier stuff. With lyrics like “I close my eyes and see bloody roses,” The Smithereens weren’t a typical power pop quartet by any means. Since its major label debut in 1986, The Smithereens have released 10 more studio albums, four live albums, four anthologies and have been featured on almost a dozen movie soundtracks (including “Timecop” and “Romy and Michele’s High School Reunion”).

endites are getting the chance to see some world-class plays performed locally this year. Tis the season for award-winning productions in Central Oregon. Cascade Theatrical Company is presenting the Tony Award-winning play, “Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike,” this month, and the play runs through March 26. Central Oregon has excellent theatrical choices all across its scattered miles, but Bend in particular is going through a bit of a theater boom. With CTC, 2nd Street Theater, Volcanic Theatre Pub, Bend Experimental Art Theatre, Lonely Fish Productions, Lurking Squirrel Productions, Dionysus Presents and a few others all producing at least two or three (and sometimes seven or eight) shows a season, there is always a production happening somewhere. The question has stopped being whether there is something to see theatrically and has instead become one of which to choose. “Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike” is an excellent choice for an audience’s theatrical buck. It’s written by Christopher Durang, one of the best American playwrights of the last half-century, and directed by one of Bend’s finest theatrical minds. Juliah Rae has been behind some of the greatest productions Bend has seen over the last several years including CTC’s “Rabbit Hole,” “The Glass Menagerie” and “All My Sons.” She takes work that is highly difficult to

produce at a community theater level, with complexity of theme and character, and creates true theater magic each and every time. Her work here is no different. “Vanya” tells the story of Vanya and Sonya, a brother and sister who stayed home to take care of their ailing parents for 15 years. Even though their parents have passed years earlier, they still live in their childhood house, growing old watching the birds come in and complaining about their lots in life. Their sister, Masha, is a movie star and pays for their living expenses and the mortgage on the house. When these three siblings collide with Masha’s dim new suitor, Spike, and a beautiful young ingénue from next door named Nina, as well as Cassandra, a prophecy spewing housekeeper, all their worlds will change. Durang’s script could have easily become a bedroom farce with lots of slamming doors and pitched voices, but his interest here lies in the characters. Vanya has discovered he is gay but not really planning on doing anything about it; Sonya is depressed and constantly reminding everyone of her adoption as a child, Masha is aging and upset that she is being offered grandmother roles; Cassandra may be mentally ill at best; Nina just wants to grow as a person and performer; and Spike likes sex and being handsome. The broadness of these characteristics

could have made for a very cornball night of theater, but Durang loves all of his characters too much to allow them to become stereotypes. Whether they’re feeling pain, contentment or something in between, Juliah Rae’s direction, Durang’s script and the performances never let us off the hook easily. Each performer has plenty of excellent moments throughout the show, but Lilli Ann-Linford Foreman and Richard Choate (as Sonia and Vanya, respectively) are the broken, beating hearts of the show. Their lived-in chemistry is very powerful and they both have monologues that are absolute show-stoppers. Foreman’s in particular is incredible because it’s a one-sided phone conversation and her reactions to a caller we never see or hear feel incredibly authentic. Also of special mention is Izzy O’Keefe, a Disney princess come to life as Nina, exuding a palpable and infectious joy across the stage. “Vanya” is a very funny show, while also being a thoughtful and profound one. In a town with so much theater to choose from, this play is an easy choice.

"Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike" March 17-26; March 20 at 2 p.m. All other shows 7:30 p.m. Cascades Theatrical Company, 148 NW Greenwood Ave., Bend $13-$20

The beautiful Caldera Arts Center in the foothills of the Cascade Mountain Range, 16 miles west of Sisters, is surrounded by the Deschutes National Forest. The Arts Center, on the shores of Blue Lake, is opened each winter to artists and creative thinkers from multiple disciplines who are awarded month-long residencies. Artists in any discipline, scientists, engineers, and designers who have established themselves beyond university training, are invited to apply. The March artists in residence, who will be featured at the open studios on March 26, have made their marks in many disciplines. Amory Abbott specializes in visual arts with a focus on illustration inspired by wilderness and mythology. Turiya Autry is an author, artist and educator who is in residence for poetry. Sash Bischoff is a playwright from New York; Kristina Marie Darling, from Baldwin, Mo., is becoming known for poetry and hybrid prose. Alex Hirsch is a painter from Portland; Annie Varnot, from Brooklyn, N.Y., is a sculptor and installation artist; and Lu Yim, from Portland, is a performing artist in residence for dance and choreography. Full bios can be found on the Caldera website,calderaarts.org. The artists in residence are given the gift of time and a peaceful place to be creative, with 24-hour access to studios set in one of the most beautiful places in the world. Year-round, Caldera is a catalyst for the transformation of underserved youth through innovative art and environmental programs and a summer nature camp to 150 youth through Camp Caldera. Caldera’s permanent staff is divided between Portland and Central Oregon, and the nonprofit achieves its mission through the support of individuals, businesses, foundations and grants.

Pub in Public

Sunriver Brewing Co. moves into town By Angela Moore 31 VOLUME 20 ISSUE 11 / March 17, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

he pub formerly known as the Sunriver Brewhouse recently opened up a new location in the Galveston area. This spawn of the Brewhouse, both referred to as the Sunriver Pub and the Galveston Pub, takes all the best of what the mama location has to a more accessible Bend location. On Feb. 18 the new pub opened its doors to an eager audience, many of whom are patrons of the original pub in Sunriver. Having been a successful hit since 2012, the Sunriver Pub knew the demand for an easier, more readily available locale. Although not actively looking to expand right away, some things just happen, and for the benefit of Bend, the opening of the Galveston Pub happened. Ryan Duley is the director of sales and

marketing and has been with the company since the beginning. Originally coaxed into being the general manager of the original pub, it didn’t take long for those in charge to see his potential better utilized. Smart move, because with just about a month under its belt, the Galveston Pub is already getting overwhelmingly positive feedback. Duley talks about the benefits of being closer to town, especially when it comes to avid beer/ pub chasers. “A lot of people make plans to come to the Sunriver Pub, but a lot of times that doesn’t get around to happening,” he says with a laugh. “People end up having a few too many in town and don’t end up wanting to make the drive out there.” It’s one of the many downfalls of being a responsible adult.

No longer does the public have to make that tough choice, and there may be other advantages than driving distance to the new location. The new pub has a much more intimate feel to it; it’s smaller than the mama pub, but still carries the favorites that made the original so successful. Starting with the fried avocados is one of the best decisions that can be made in life. Go to a good school, marry your best friend, then order and eat the fried avocados. Roughly 70 percent of the menu carried over with about 10 taps for beer. Even five employees made the journey to the new location to help aid in its opening. When coming into the pub, one of the first things to notice are the genuine smiles, not just on the faces of those spirit line, and free samples of the entire line of spirits will be available for anyone over 21.

enjoying their meals or drinks, but from the team working. Duley speaks highly of the 30 workers. “We got lucky with the staff. Right off the bat it was like a welloiled machine,” he says. “We are ecstatic about them as a whole. ” Living in such a close-knit community as Bend, that kind of smart luck is important. While many establishments focus the first few months, or even years, fine-tuning menu items, establishing a clientele or even just working to get into a rhythm, Galveston Pub is in the unique position where all of that has been done previously and conquered. Really, the main focus of this pub can truly be what a pub is all about: Good brew, good people, and good times. SW

he Tumalo Tavern, located off U.S. 20 approximately 15 minutes north of Bend, is the kind of place in which anyone of drinking age would like to be a fixture. Business cards for horse trainers and mobile welding services share wall space with a list of regular patrons with birthdays in March. A jukebox has Creedence Clearwater Revival on a semi-permanent loop, and elderly couples occasionally break into dancing right in front of the bar. The Oregon Lottery machines are partitioned off from the nearby pool tables with a faux-Old West storefront, complete with a sign that reads “Gamblin.” It’s that kind of place. Moreover, just because this part of the land is where farm animals outnumber people doesn’t mean one has to compromise on booze choices. This is Oregon, after all, and the community of Tumalo (population: 488) treats its beer as seriously as it does its horses and chickens. Tumalo Tavern, which is owned by Cascade Lakes Brewery, may not exactly have the selection of, say, Brother Jon’s or the Pour House Grill, but it’s quality down the line—from Cascade Lakes’ own Hopsmack IPA to Manny’s Pale Ale, from Georgetown Brewing in Seat-

tle. The best of the lot on tap, however, is the Umbrella IPA from Pelican Brewing off the Oregon coast, a 7.4 percent ale that uses nothing but Ella hops from Australia. It’s basically a showcase piece for this hop, which provides a refreshing, clean sort of kick that’s a neat change of pace from the dank Boneyard RPMs of the world. For those in Tumalo looking for something a little more substantial than potato chips to go with the beer, Pisano’s is two doors down and offers pretty terrific wood-fired pizza. The Tumalo Country Store, which doubles as the town’s only gas station, has a fully-stocked bar and growler-fill station in the rear, offering 24 taps of beer, cider, sangria, and kombucha. Perhaps because of its relative obscurity compared to Growler Guys, it’s got some pretty hot stuff on tap, including Firestone Walker’s Double Jack IPA and Deschutes’ Abyss and Jubelale from last year. Pair a 64-oz growler with some firewood and chicken from the front of the store, and there’s a great Saturday night in the great outdoors. SW

This Movie Has Sand Dragons Oh, and they breathe fire By Jared Rasic 33 VOLUME 20 ISSUE 11 / March 17, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

Where is that dang robotic owl when you need him.

or a completely goofy, “Clash of the Titans” throwback, “Gods of Egypt” is drawing a lot of controversy over the apparent whitewashing of the cast. There are a ton of white people in this movie, but there are also a few people of color in prominent roles, but the central Egyptian gods are mostly white folks. Let’s tackle that first. Director Alex Proyas has spoken out on his Facebook page repeatedly about the supposed whitewashing of his film and had this to say: “I cast the best actors for the roles. I stand by these decisions. Of course in a perfect world there would be a greater pool of English-speaking Egyptian actors to draw upon for this movie, but the practicalities of production, the names which are required by studios to finance a movie of this scale, the fact the movie was entirely made in Australia with specific

guidelines about how many ‘imported’ actors we could include, all these aspects had a part to play in the casting of the movie.” A bit more thoughtfully, he adds, “The casting is an attempt to include ALL people, partly suggestive of the Egypt I know based on my own cultural heritage, but clearly and most importantly a work of the imagination—to exclude any one race in service of a hypothetical theory of historical accuracy, particularly in a film that is not attempting to be ‘history,’ rather a fantasy film, would have been biased.” That said, more diversity in films is important, and studio decisions will determine if filmmakers will ever get to make those choices. As much as it would be correct and just to cast Egyptian actors to play Egyptian roles, the reality of film financing behind a $140 million

fantasy movie means Alex Proyas should not be thrown under the bus for decisions beyond his control. Now, anyone who has seen a trailer for “Gods of Egypt” should know exactly what they’re getting into with this flick. This is a movie for eight-year olds. Within minutes there are snake women riding fire-breathing sand dragons chasing after our heroes. Geoffrey Rush turns into a ten-foot-tall god who shoots fireballs from his staff. Some of the special effects are excellent and some are simply subpar. Nikolaj Coster-Waldau as Horus and Gerard Butler as Set are both a ton of fun as Gods fighting over Egypt, but Brenton Thwaites and Chadwick Boseman are lost in their respective roles. What this means is that the film is incredibly uneven and inconsistent with some moments being a ton of eye-popping fun

FEATURED FILM EVENTS “Berlin Phil: The Beethoven Project” Maestro Sir Simon Rattle conducts the Berlin Philharmonic to two of Beethoven’s finest works: “Symphony No. 4” and “Symphony No. 7.” The film shows the juxtaposition between the light and cheerful “No. 4” and the heavy-hitting “No. 7,” in ways no audience has seen before. Sat., March 19, 12:55 p.m. Old Mill Stadium 16, 680 SW Powerhouse Dr., Bend $18

and others looking more on the level of the SyFy Channel’s “Mega-Python vs. Gateroid.” Proyas should have been very disappointed with his FX houses as the green screen work is some of the best and some of the worst that has played in multiplex theaters for years. “Gods of Egypt,” doesn’t take itself seriously and doesn’t expect an audience to either. If the effects, script and performances were consistent, it would be an enthusiastic recommendation all around but, as it stands, the film is a mixed bag of epic proportions. SW

" 10 Cloverfield Lane"

FILM SHORTS By Jared Rasic

ried couple during the week of their 45th wedding anniversary. When the body of the husband’s ex-girlfriend is found (she fell off a cliff hiking), it gives them both a chance to examine how life might have been if different paths had been chosen. In turns bitingly witty, haunting and potently depressing, “45 Years” is not a film that is easy to shake off. Tin Pan Theater

THE BROTHERS GRIMSBY: The catastrophically unfunny trailers aren’t doing “The Brothers Grimsby” any favors, regardless of how awesome Sacha Baron Cohen, Mark Strong, Rebel Wilson and Penelope Cruz are. Cohen and Strong play brothers who have been separated since childhood. Whereas Strong became a Bond-like secret agent, Cohen is a lower-class football hooligan. When their worlds collide, weirdly violent and laughfree hijinks ensue. The film might be better than the trailer, but it’s not looking good. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX 10 CLOVERFIELD LANE: Somehow this film connects into the universe started with 2008’s “Cloverfield,” but all we know going in is that Mary Elizabeth Winstead plays a young woman who was in an accident and wakes up a few days later in an underground bunker with John Goodman and John Gallagher Jr. Goodman tells her the world has ended and he saved her life, but can she really trust him? This should be a nail-biter. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

EDDIE THE EAGLE:

Everyone loves a crowd-pleasing sports film and this one shouldn’t be any different. Inspired by true events, this tells the tale of Michael “Eddie” Edwards, a British ski jumper who was seen as too lower class to compete in the Olympics, but kept proving people wrong even as he kept getting better at his sport of choice. This looks like 2016’s version of “Cool Runnings” and that is a good sign. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

GODS OF EGYPT: This one could make or break the bank for Lionsgate Studios. This is a $140 million epic Sci-Fantasy along the lines of “Clash of the Titans” that needs to break a quarter of a billion dollars to make a profit and early tracking looks devastating. Terrible trailers and wonky effects are not helping audiences decide whether to shell out for this ridiculous looking flick. This might be the “Battlefield Earth” of 2016. Old Mill HOW TO BE SINGLE: Dakota Johnson and the progressively more annoying Rebel Wilson star in this crass comedy about the search for love in New York City. As much as we love Rebel Wilson, her shtick is starting to wear a bit thin. One hopes there will be more to the film than that. The supporting cast is definitely stacked with some ringers, so this should at least be good for some laughs. 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 for which this franchise is known. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX.

RACE: A new biopic about athlete Jesse Owens and his experiences at the 1936 Olympic Games in Berlin. This should be uplifting, exciting and infuriating in equal measures and with director Stephen Hopkins (“Predator 2” and “Blown Away”), it will be visually sumptuous, as well. An important story that everyone should know. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX RISEN: The trailers for this make the film look a bit like “CSI: Jerusalem,” but maybe that is a good thing. Joseph Fiennes plays a Roman centurion summoned by Pontius Pilate to investigate the resurrection of Jesus of Nazareth. Director Kevin Reynolds (“Waterworld,” “Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves”).

SON OF SAUL: This one is up for the Best Foreign Film Oscar and purports to be one of the most powerful movies about the Holocaust since Schindler’s List. This tells the tale of a concentration camp inmate who is charged with burning the bodies of the dead who must choose between an uprising or giving his son a proper burial. Intensely focused and quite powerful, “Son of Saul” is a film that will be remembered for some time to come. Tin Pan Theater WHERE TO INVADE NEXT: Michael Moore returns after a long hiatus to bring us some of his trademarked friendly activism. This time he asks other countries how the US is truly viewed and what things we could do as a country to be better received. Moore is a pro at pushing the hot buttons, but most of the people who could really gain something from his films will never take a chance on watching one. Instead, Moore is stuck preaching to the choir. It’s a powerful message if only more people would listen. Tin Pan Theater

WHISKEY TANGO FOXTROT: This is NOT based on the excellent 2014 novel by David Shafer about the privatization of all information, but instead a comedy about war, starring Tina Fey and Margot Robbie. Fey plays a war correspondent in Afghanistan and Pakistan during Operation Enduring Freedom who builds weird relationships with her fellow reporters and others on the ground. Written by one of the head writers of “30 Rock,” this should be one of the smartest and explosively hilarious comedies of the year. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

THE YOUNG MESSIAH: Though there have been quite a few Hollywood movies about the life and times of Jesus Christ over the last few years, none have focused solely on his days as a child. “The Young Messiah” follows Jesus as a seven-year old as he learns of his powers. Sean Bean is in this, leading us to wonder whether he can even survive the story of pre-teen Jesus. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

ZOOTOPIA: Advanced word on this one has it being one of the best animated films in years with a genuinely important message about how people need to do better at living with each other. Zootopia is a place where all animals live together side by side, predators and prey. But when some bad stuff goes down, two cops, a wolf and a rabbit must team up to find out what happened and protect Zootopia. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

Lone Wolf Walking, Searching for a Mate

GO HERE By Brian Jennings

Oregon wolf population grows to 110

Sunriver’s Oregon Observatory

A male gray wolf has been tracked traversing about 600 miles in three months.

ince the gray wolf was reintroduced by federal wildlife officials, the program hasn’t been without controversy as the animals move west through Idaho and into Washington and Oregon.

southern Oregon since reintroduction. According to the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife, two other calves were badly maimed.

not yet returned to the area from their winter range. If there are more confirmed kills of cattle by OR 25, he could be lethally removed.

A wolf can travel long distances quickly. Take OR 25, a male wolf that dispersed from his Imnaha pack in northeast Oregon just a year ago. In less than three months he had traveled hundreds of miles from the Wallowa Mountains through the Columbia plateau, through the southern Blue Mountains, into the Northern and Central Cascade Mountains and, finally, to northern Klamath County. Drawing a straight line, he covered at least 600 miles. Wildlife officials estimate that in his wanderings he may have covered twice that distance. It only took him eight days to cross I-84 near Pendleton before his GPS tracking collar showed him to be in the Cascade Mountains west of Madras. OR 25 covered the distance from Mt. Jefferson to northern Klamath County in four days.

Populations are growing The Oregon Department of Fish & Wildlife recently released its 2015 wolf population report, which showed a 36 percent increase over 2014. The count now stands at 110 statewide. “Oregon’s wolves are healthy and growing,” says Russ Morgan who coordinates ODFW’s wolf program. “The increase in 2015 simply provides quantitative support for our prediction that wolves will continue to increase in Oregon,” he says. “At some point the growth will undoubtedly slow down, but I think we are several years from that because they’re still pioneering new areas,” according to Morgan.

According to John Stephenson, Oregon’s Wolf Coordinator for the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, it would take repeated or chronic offenses to justify killing OR 25. And, when the Source Weekly talked to Stephenson on March 8, there was some optimism. “As of last night, OR 25 has left the area and is now in northern California,” said Stephenson. This is the third time he has left the area and crossed into California, which is at least 40 miles away. “He is a lone wolf and may be searching for a mate.”

From May 2015, this wolf ’s radio collar shows most of his activity near the headwaters of the Williamson River in northern Klamath County, where he’s being carefully watched by ranchers and wildlife officials. It’s calving season on ranches and the newborns can easily become prey. Ranchers and wildlife officials kept a 24-hour vigil, hazing the male wolf with loud shotgun blasts in hopes that he wouldn’t kill or maim as he did last fall when his radio collar showed him near a calf carcass on numerous occasions between Oct. 28 and Nov. 2. It was the first wolf depredation in

Those new areas could eventually include the coastal mountains. Morgan says he suspects that if wolves move into the coastal range they will originate from the Rogue Pack in the Jackson/Klamath area where pups have been produced for the last two years. “As they disperse, they could potentially end up crossing I-5 and moving west,” he says. Morgan says he thinks it’s unlikely they are there now, however. The fate of OR 25 appears somewhat cloudy. Ranchers and wildlife officials admit they can only continue their hazing efforts for so long in hopes that the wolf will leave the ranch areas in the upper Williamson River region. Big game animals on which wolves often prey, including mule deer and elk, have

Stephenson lauds area ranchers who he says have been cooperative in trying to divert OR 25 and says it would be “nice if we succeed.” He says that even though wolves have been de-listed as endangered by ODFW, they are still federally listed west of Hwy 395, which covers two-thirds of Oregon. It is illegal to shoot and kill a wolf unless there is danger to human life, or in certain circumstances involving livestock. Only about half of gray wolves are gray. Others may be of different colors including white, tawny gray or black, or a combination of these colors. Some younger wolves can be mistaken for dogs, but can be distinguished from coyotes and dogs by their longer legs, larger feet, wider head and snout, shorter ears, narrow body, and straight tail, according to information available on the ODFW website.

ADVICE GODDESS

A Phone Company That

ACTUALLY Picks Up?

Nice Boning Structure

My boyfriend is going to a dinner out of town to get an award for a film he made, and he didn’t invite me. When I told him I felt excluded, he said that he was embarrassed because his parents are paying for his flight and he has to stay with a friend. I get it; he does wonderful work, but he’s still struggling financially. Still, if the tables were turned—if I were getting an award—I would at least tell him I wish he could come.

I’m 25, and my boyfriend is 29. He is super-sweet, is a good person, and treats me really well. However, recently, he told my roommate that she has “nice cheekbones.” I didn’t say anything, but I think this was inappropriate. It’s not like “I like your shirt” or whatever. It’s about another woman’s beauty. Can I tell him I don’t want him complimenting other women in the future?

There are a lot of things Martin Scorsese has been known to say, but one of them is not, “I want you by my side at this festival, and I only have to dig through the trash for 8,234 more cans to make that happen.” It isn’t surprising that your boyfriend—as a man—is more sensitive about being…as they say…brokeahontas than you would be if the (awards dinner) tables were turned. As I frequently explain, men and women aren’t just physically different; they evolved to have corresponding psychological differences. A biggie comes out of how there was a far greater potential cost to an ancestral woman from any sex act (pregnancy and a kid to feed) compared with the cost to a man: “Gee, that was a whole teaspoonful of sperm!” So female psychology evolved to push women to look for “providers”—men with access to resources and a willingness to share them. That’s why women go for guys who show signs of wealth, like a temperature-controlled nursery for their sports cars. Wealth is a cue to the all-important ability to bring home the bison. But in ancestral times, we couldn’t hang on to stuff—including food—because we didn’t have refrigerators, let alone houses to keep them in. There was just the meat you could eat before it went bad and your man’s ability to hunt it down. So what does it for a lot of women is potential— signs that a man could soon be, uh, dragging home tasty dead animals (probably shrink-wrapped, unless their guy is good with a crossbow). You seem to be one of those women. (You get that they don’t give out film awards to just any doof who shoots a cat video on their iPhone.) If you do believe in your boyfriend, tell him—regularly, in detail. If he gets that you’re proud of him and that you’d be happier eating hot dogs on a bench with him than dining with some corporate drone at Le Whatever, he’s less likely to feel he’s failing you by being undercapitalized. This should help him be more inclusive in the future—at least emotionally—when that “historic location” where he’ll be staying is the sagging love seat where his buddy lost his virginity in 1992.

—Hurt It says something when a man notices a nice view—like that it’s only a matter of time before he and that pretty orange sunset are sneaking out to his car to have sex. Okay, it’s possible that “nice cheekbones” is man-speak for “Those are some hypno-hooters you got there, honey.” But maybe he was just trying to say something nice. Or maybe he was mesmerized in a bad way—like “Whoa…are those forceps marks?”—and he noticed her noticing and ducked for verbal cover. As for why you find this upsetting, consider that our emotions aren’t just feelings; they tell us what to do. The disturbing emotion of jealousy, for example, is what evolutionary psychologist David Buss calls a “coping device” for “mate retention” —an alarm system that helps us guard against being cheated on. However, sometimes this alarm system can be a little oversensitive and in need of recalibration—like the one at my parents’ house that used to go off whenever my uncle cut one in the den.

In deciding whether you should say something, context matters. You describe your boyfriend as attentive, “super-sweet,” and “a good person.” If he isn’t regularly jawing on about other women’s looks, maybe it’s a little premature to turn your relationship into a repressive regime. Model your free speech policy on that of Iran or North Korea and it’s only a matter of time before you’re in a date-night rut: “So…same old, same old…dinner and a cavity search?”

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): “The greatest il-

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Artist Steven Spasuk works exclusively with an unusual medium: soot from candles and torches. He spreads the stuff across a blank canvas, then uses various instruments to sculpt the accidental blobs into definitive forms. I’ve seen the results, and they’re both well-done and intriguing. What would be the metaphorical equivalent, in your world, of using soot to make beautiful and interesting things? I think you’re primed to turn waste into building blocks, rot into splendor, and lead into gold. (See Spazuk’s work at spazuk.com.) TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Carl Sagan said that science thrives on “two seemingly contradictory attitudes: an openness to new ideas, no matter how bizarre or counterintuitive, and the most ruthless skeptical scrutiny of all ideas, old and new.” Whether or not you are a scientist, Taurus, I recommend that you practice this approach in the coming weeks. It’s the tool that’s most likely to keep you centered and free of both rigidity and illusion. As Sagan concluded, this is “how deep truths are winnowed from deep nonsense.”

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): “Excess on occasion is exhilarating,” said British author W. Somerset Maugham. “It prevents moderation from acquiring the deadening effect of a habit.” Now would be an excellent time to take that advice to heart, Gemini. According to my analysis of the astrological omens, you not only have a license to engage in rowdy fun and extravagant pleasures; it’s your sacred duty. So get out there and treat yourself to an orgy of naughty adventures—or at least a celebration of meaningful thrills. You can return to the rigors of discipline and order once you have harvested the healthy benefits that will come from escaping them. CANCER (June 21-July 22): At one point in Friedrich Nietzsche’s book Thus Spoke Zarathustra, the hero is having a conversation with himself. “You have wanted to pet every monster,” he says. “A whiff of warm breath, a little soft tuft on the paw—and at once you were ready to love and to lure it.” If I were you, Cancerian, I would regard that type of behavior as forbidden in the coming weeks. In fact, I will ask you not to pet any monsters at all—not even the cute ones; not even the beasties and rascals and imps that have slight resemblances to monsters. It’s time for maximum discernment and caution. (P.S.: One of the monsters may ultimately become a non-monstrous ally if you are wary toward it now.)

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): On a social media site, I posted the following quote from self-help teacher Byron Katie: “Our job is unconditional love. The job of everyone else in our life is to push our buttons.” One commenter took issue with this. “’Pushing buttons’ is a metaphor that’s long past its expiration date,” she wrote. “Can’t you come up with something fresher?” So I did. Here are a few potential substitutes for “push our buttons”: “tweak our manias”. . .”prank our obsessions”. . .”glitter-bomb our biases”. . .”squeeze our phobias”. . .”badger our compulsions”. . .”seduce our repressions”. . .”prick our dogmas.” Whichever expression you prefer, Leo, find a graceful way to embrace your fate: Your current job is unconditional love. The job of everyone else in your life is to tweak your manias and prick your dogmas.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): In the coming weeks, you will have maximum power to revise and reinvigorate your approach to cultivating intimate relationships. To aid your quest, I offer this paraphrased advice from Andrew Boyd: Almost ev-

ery one of us seeks a special partner who is just right. But there is no right person, just different flavors of wrong. Why? Because you yourself are “wrong” in some ways—you have demons and flaws and problems. In fact, these “wrongs” are essential components of who you are. When you ripen into this understanding, you’re ready to find and be with your special counterpart. He or she has the precise set of problems you need—is the person who is wrong for you in just the right ways. (See Boyd’s original quote: tinyurl.com/boydquote.)

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): In her book “The Winter Vault,” Anne Michaels says, “We become ourselves when things are given to us or when things are taken away.” If she’s right, does it mean we should be grateful for those times when things are taken away? Should we regard moments of loss as therapeutic prods that compel us to understand ourselves better and to create ourselves with a fiercer determination? Meditate on these possibilities, Libra. In the meantime, I’m pleased to announce that the things-getting-taken-away period of your cycle is winding down. Soon you’ll begin a new phase, when you can become a deeper, stronger version of yourself because of the things that are given to you. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): “I’ll make love when the lust subsides,” sings Denitia, one-half of the electro-pop band Denitia and Sene. That would be a good motto for you to play around with in the coming days, Scorpio—in both literal and metaphorical ways. I’ll enjoy seeing how your emotional intelligence ripens as the white-hot passion of recent weeks evolves into a more manageable warmth. As fun as the intensity has been, it has blinded you to some of the possibilities for collaborative growth that have been emerging. You may now be ready to explore and appreciate sweeter, subtler pleasures.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): “The poems I have loved the most are those I have understood the least,” said T. S. Eliot. I’m going to steal and expand upon his idea for the purpose of giving you an accurate horoscope. In the coming days, Sagittarius, I suspect that the experiences you love most will be those that you understand the least. Indeed, the experiences you NEED the most will be those that surprise and mystify and intrigue you. Luckily, life will be ingenious in bypassing your analytical intelligence so as to provide you with rich emotional stimuli for your soul.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Capricorn painter Henri Matisse made the following testimony about his creative process: “At each stage I reach a balance, a conclusion. At the next sitting, if I find that there is a weakness in the whole, I make my way back into the picture by means of the weakness— I re-enter through the breach—and I reconceive the whole. Thus everything becomes fluid again.” I recommend this approach to you in the coming days, Capricorn. You’ve been making decent progress on your key project. To keep up the good work, you should now find where the cracks are, and let them teach you how to proceed from here.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): “We all lead three lives,” said Austrian novelist Thomas Bernhard, “an actual one, an imaginary one, and the one we are not aware of.” I suspect you’ll get big glimpses of your third life in the coming weeks, Aquarius: the one you’re normally not aware of. It might freak you out a bit, maybe unleash a few blasts of laughter and surges of tears. But if you approach these revelations with reverent curiosity, I bet they will be cleansing and catalytic. They are also likely to make you less entranced by your imaginary life and better grounded in your actual life.

lusion is not religion,” says aphorist Michael Lipsey. “It’s waking up in the morning imagining how much you’re going to get done today.” But even if that’s often true, Pisces, I suspect that you have the power to refute it in the coming weeks. Your ability to accomplish small wonders will be at a peak. Your knack for mastering details and acting with practical acumen may be unprecedented. For the immediate future, then, I predict that you’ll largely be able to get done what you imagine you can get done.

Growing Pains

Many of the housing headline issues have centered on the issues of housing affordability for first-time homebuyers, the rental crisis, homelessness, the lack of housing inventory, urban sprawl and the expansion of the urban growth boundary, all of which are important and interrelated. Though extending the urban growth boundary may become necessary to accommodate growth, it seems prudent to consider the mistakes of some of the large cities when creating land use policies. For example, instead of building only in the new growth area, it would be beneficial to encourage urban renewal of dilapidated areas near downtown with mixed use and affordable housing options. First time homebuyers are not necessarily interested in high density cookie cutter homes in the new developments on the outskirts of town. Living closer to work and access to amenities are modern values often overlooked. Many people will choose an

older home in order to get the location they want.

20755 Travelers Place, Bend

Development goals have been expressed in the urban growth expansion debate and a happy compromise would begin by listening to what the market shows people want instead of sticking to the urban sprawl concept. For example, many of the so-called entry level homes in new developments are in fact purchased by empty nesters and retirees who appreciate the lower maintenance requirements of new homes and smaller lots.

5.28 ACRES IN WHISPERING PINES $375,000

On the other hand, millennials like the modern features of new homes, but not their locations and layouts. Realistically, in a dog lover’s town like Bend, the new high density developments are out of the price range of most millennials and they don’t offer adequate yards for kids and dogs. Building larger homes on smaller and smaller lots with no privacy is not striking the right balance for families. It’s important for developers to stay in touch with the character of our town and listen to the consumer needs of all age groups.

merican football is a brutal sport. Many players leave the NFL disabled and many die young. For professional football players, “your job automatically gives you the symptom of chronic pain,” says Baltimore Ravens offensive tackle Eugene Monroe. Currently, most NFL team physicians, like most physicians nationwide, prescribe opioids for pain relief. But these drugs come with serious concerns about addiction and overdose. According to NFL players, team physicians are among the most aggressive in pushing use of opioids to treat pain. Last year, former NFL players filed suit against the NFL alleging that teams conspired to use prescription painkillers to keep players off the injured reserve list. Specifically, the lawsuit claims that several well-known coaches, including Don Shula and Mike Holmgren, told players that they would be cut from their team unless they took the prescribed painkillers and played with their pain. Retired NFL veteran Kyle Turley claims his team’s medical staff would hand out Vicodin freely on the team flights home

after games. “The trainers and the doctors used to go down the aisle and say, ‘Who needs what?’” Turley said. According to other former players, Turley’s experience is common. A recent study found that retired NFL players are more than four times as likely to abuse prescription painkillers than the general population. Many players, including Monroe and Turley, say current NFL players commonly use cannabis to deal with the physical toll of the game. However, that’s a problem in the NFL, which has a strict policy prohibiting the use of cannabis for any reason. Players are suspended for testing positive for cannabis, with significant professional and financial consequences. For example, Houston Texans receiver Jaelen Strong was recently arrested for cannabis possession in Arizona and will likely be suspended for one game, costing him $570,000. Despite the NFL’s awareness of the problems with opioid use among players, and a recent estimate of 30 to 40 percent of players using cannabis for pain treatment, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell recently said the league has no intention to change its cannabis use policy.
