“The constant encouragement to pursue my goals kept me going when I questioned my plan.” - KATIE WILLIS

CELEBRATING STUDENT SUCCESS

Namaspa runs on clean energy.

CENTRAL OREGON COMMUNITY COLLEGE

WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / March 22, 2018 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

KATIE WILLIS, PA-C Associate of Arts Oregon Transfer Degree “When I think about my time at COCC, the word ‘community’ is central to my memory. “Given my return to the classroom was a decade removed from high school, I was very nervous about the course load required to pursue an advanced degree

in medicine. The small class sizes and excellent instruction helped me get up to speed, while the constant encouragement to pursue my goals kept me going when I questioned my plan. I could not, would not have come as far as I have without the support and community I found at COCC.“

PHYSICIAN ASSISTANT, ST. CHARLES HEALTH SYSTEM CENTRAL OREGON COMMUNITY COLLEGE 2600 NW COLLEGE WAY BEND, OREGON 97703 541.383.7700 • cocc.edu

COCC is an affirmative action, equal opportunity institution.

his week, the City of Bend planned an Open House for the upcoming 6th Street Neighborhood Greenway—located on one of the very same streets that hosted September’s Open Streets event, which some dubbed a “war on cars.” When you start seeing the construction happen on this portion of 6th Street this fall, try to remember that the effort is far from a “war on cars,” or a conspiracy to rob you of your right to drive a car. Instead, it’s a method that allows those using other forms of transportation more of a safe experience—something we should applaud and support more of. As described by the City of Bend, Neighborhood Greenways are “select side streets (typically residential) that create easy-going bicycling between homes, commercial venues, services, parks, schools and jobs.” In the case of the new one on 6th Street, extending from Greenwood Avenue to Butler Market Road, the project will involve new signs, pavement humps and pavement markings that discourage cut-through traffic along the street. It will also, perhaps most importantly, include construction of crosswalks across Olney, Revere and Greenwood Avenues and 6th St. Currently, the lights at 3rd and 8th Streets and Greenwood—a considerable distance between them on foot—are the only safe crossings for cyclists, walkers, those in wheelchairs and others not in cars. Important to note: the crosswalk portion of Greenwood is in the purview of the Oregon Department of Transportation, and, frustratingly for those who use the area for pedestrian activity, won’t be completed on the same timeline as the Greenway. According to the City of Bend, the ODOT crosswalk will

be completed “within three years.” If you’ve walked or biked portions of 6th Street before, you might have noticed that most of the street doesn’t have a sidewalk—and the City of Bend doesn’t have immediate plans to install one as part of this project. The street won’t be completely free of cars—and isn’t intended to—but we hope it will indeed make it safer for pedestrians and cyclists in the area, while at the same time allowing traffic to, slowly, get about. We fully support these efforts and we applaud the City for moving forward with this portion of its 2018-2021 Capital Improvement Program. But in case you’re still stuck on the war on cars, check out this helpful description of Neighborhood Greenways from the Association of Pedestrian and Bicycle Professionals, in a feature on Seattle’s greenway efforts: “Greenways offer a transformative tool in defusing the “cars vs. bikes” rhetoric because they offer an infrastructure product that everyone can imagine benefitting from and which helps protect the most vulnerable road users: seniors, children and people with constrained mobility. Whether you bike or not, you probably want your residential street to be peaceful and attractive and to be protected from cars barreling through at dangerous speeds.” We do want our residential streets to be peaceful and accessible, and ideally, to include more sidewalks. As the City updates its Transportation System Plan, there’s room for people in Bend to weigh in on that. You can share your thoughts on which areas need sidewalks most by visiting: bendoregon.gov/city-projects/transportation-system-plan. SW

OPINION Letters

As past Chairpersons of this hard working commission we want to say that we are very disappointed in this decision. The ABC Commission started in 2002 with a vision toward encouraging the arts, beautifying our city, and revering past, present, and future culture. Several hundred citizens have volunteered their time and expertise advising the city council and staff on art & culture issues. Historically, we had a zero budget and many expenses were paid for by the members of the commission themselves. It is discouraging that a city the size of Bend cannot commit to including even a modicum of staffing support in the budget. Most cities the size of Bend have a funded arts commission where most decisions of public art are dealt with. Several notable accomplishments of the ABC Commission: * ABC Award presented annually * City Walls at City Hall: rotating juried exhibit displayed at City Hall * Murals: now allowed to be painted in the Makers District. Here’s hoping one day in the future the Council will again see value for the commission and some creative citizens will revive the Arts, Beautification & Culture Commission. Our heartfelt gratitude goes to our devoted past ABC Commissioners and to the City Councilors who supported our efforts. Thank you to all of the artists, musicians, photographers and enthusiasts. Bend is beautiful and we all can continue to uplift the arts and culture in our community. —Liz Rink, Matt Schiffman and Jenny Malone

IN RESPONSE TO “WHY A GUN” (LETTERS) ON 3/8 Ester Iscke’s letter last week resorted to name calling. “Idiot” and “dumbass” are not the type of words used to form a compelling point of view. While I neither agreed nor disagreed with the gist of the letter I couldn’t help but think that there has to be a better way to make a point. Name calling makes this section of the Source less of an exchange of ideas and more of an internet rant. It brings the level of discourse down to the lowest common denominator. Come on folks we’re better than that! Instead of name calling why not make a cognizant, compelling argument and let the reader make their own decision about the opinion writer’s intellect. Change begins close to home. If we want to really “make America great again” let’s start by being thoughtful and displaying some respect when voicing our opinions and stop the written shouting matches. —John Boylen

STOP GUN VIOLENCE:

ARE BENDITES AS NICE AS THEY THINK?

My name is Evan Melner I am a 13 year old at Bend International School. I believe deeply that children should be able to have a safe place to learn without violence. Children should be able to go to school, not having to worry about gun violence and school shootings. Gun violence is a serious issue for schools. The way to stop school shootings is to apply universal background checks and ban assault rifles from being made in the United States. This is an issue that is not only important to me but to other schools as well. Universal background checks are a necessary element to stopping these traumatizing school shootings. One way universal background checks contribute to stopping school shootings is because the school shooters would not be able to purchase automatic firearms if they had been previously convicted of a crime. For example, if the Parkland shooter would have had a background check lives would be saved and that school shooting would not have taken place. Bans on assault rifles is also a very necessary factor in stopping gun violence, particularly school shootings. If the government puts a ban on assault weapons we will save countless numbers of lives from being taken. I’m asking Senators, Democrats, Republicans and Congressmen to step up and save the lives of our children and teachers, this can happen only by applying bans to assault weapons and background checks to anyone who wants to purchase a gun assault weapons. I am prepared to fight for this cause and I hope you will too. —Evan Melner

I’ve seen a few of the “Be nice you’re in Bend” bumper stickers and I assumed it is speaking to the thousands of visitors that swarm our home town each year. But after getting lost in the Tumalo Irrigation Historic Canal area and trying to get a lift on Cline Falls road, I think a better bumper sticker is “Be nice, you’re from Bend”. It was my third time hiking with dog in Tumalo Historic district and I was determined not to get lost for what would be my third time. I don’t know if it’s the lack of trail markers or its just my famously poor sense of direction, but no matter how hard I try not to, I always get lost. This time I warned my hiking companion about my history and we were especially careful. But two hours later we found ourselves and our two dogs somewhere on Cline Falls road. Realizing we were probably a good 2-3 miles from our car, and it started to rain, we decided to try and get a lift while we trekked back. This is where it gets interesting. My friend hung back while I got on the road and tried to wave down a car. I will describe myself for you to get the full picture. I’m a mature (old enough not to want to give my exact age) petite woman who was wearing hiking pants, purple jacket and a baseball cap. Definitely not a threatening type. I must have waved down close to 10 cars before one finally stopped. In the car was a young, delightful couple and they offered us and the two dogs a lift to our car. As it turned out, our saviors had just moved to Bend recently… from Los Angeles. This got me thinking. Maybe our newest residents, even from California, may be nicer than us old time curmudgeons. —Caryn Hill

Lauren Hough, a senior at Bend Senior High School, speaks during the National School Walkout March 14.

District Considers Start Time Changes

Bend-La Pine Schools will survey the public starting April 9 By Chris Miller In the wake of recent studies that show adolescents’ sleep patterns change and trend toward a later bedtime, district officials are considering changing start times for Bend-La Pine Schools. According to the National Sleep Foundation, “Biological sleep patterns shift toward later times for both sleeping and waking during adolescence—meaning it is natural to not be able to fall asleep before 11:00pm.” Currently, elementary students at Bend-La Pine Schools start at 9am, while middle school and high school students need to be in their chairs by 7:45am. The district is considering three options: The Flip Model would have elementary students starting at 7:45am and the middle and high school aged kids at 9am.; a Slide Model would have elementary students starting earlier and high school and middle school students starting at later, undetermined times; while the Current Model would maintain current start times. Bend-La Pine Deputy Superintendent Jay Mathisen told KTVZ that current research says if adolescents start school later than 7:45, there are benefits for kids. St. Charles Sleep Center Medical Director Dr. David Dedrick told KTVZ a later start time is vitally important to teen health. However, later start times do come with consequences. For example, flipping times could leave elementary students waiting in the dark for the bus. High school kids could face challenges with later finish times getting to sports and other after-school events. An across-the-board later start time would mean hiring more bus drivers to get everyone to school on time. The district will conduct an online survey from April 9 to May 31 to let the community weigh in on the issue, said BLPS Communications Specialist Alandra Johnson. That survey will be available on the district website, https:// www.bend.k12.or.us.

Over 50 Dogs Removed from La Pine Property By Chris Miller On March 16, deputies with the Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office went to the 51000 block of Ash Road in La Pine to check on multiple dogs. After looking at the property, deputies say they found the dogs were not being properly cared for, and found one female adult dog and two puppies that were in need of urgent care. The owner of the 53 dogs released ownership to the Humane Society of Central Oregon. Since the seizure, the female adult dog had to be put down. Veterinarians are still evaluating the health of the other dogs, and the fate of the puppies is unknown at this time. Deputies say the breeds surrendered were Labrador Retrievers, German Shorthaired Pointers and Dachshunds. SW

Safety at Bend-La Pine Schools

After the recent school shooting in Florida and the threats at Bend Senior High, how safe are our schools? WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / March 22, 2018 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

By Chris Miller

IMAGINE YOU’RE AT WORK. YOU JUST FILLED YOUR FAVORITE MUG FULL OF COFFEE AND RETURN TO YOUR DESK, ADORNED WITH PHOTOS OF YOUR FAMILY—SMILING KIDS ON VACATION, SOAKING-WET DOGS DRIPPING FROM SWIMMING IN CULTUS LAKE— WHEN YOUR PHONE BUZZES. IT’S A TEXT FROM YOUR HIGH SCHOOLAGED CHILD. IT’S BRIEF: “I LOVE YOU.” A SMILE RUNS ACROSS YOUR FACE. TEENS DON’T OFTEN TEXT LOVING MESSAGES TO THEIR PARENTS. THEN ALL HELL BREAKS LOOSE. EVERYONE’S PHONE IN THE OFFICE IS GOING OFF AT THE SAME TIME: ACTIVE SHOOTER AT THE SCHOOL.

ortunately, Bend has avoided the tragedy of a school shooting, but the community isn’t immune to its possibilities. Just this year, there have been three threats against schools, two found to be credible, one leading to the arrest of a 16-year-old student who allegedly intended violence at Bend Senior High School, and on Feb. 28 a 15-year-old La Pine High student was taken into custody by the Deschutes County Sheriff’s office for an alleged threat of violence at the school involving guns. On Feb. 26, after the Bend High arrest, Bend La-Pine Schools Superintendent Shay Mikalson sent a letter asking Oregon lawmakers to create a new crime covering “terroristic threat” at a felony level. Mikalson also asked the legislature to fund a threat assessment team and to extend maximum detention from 36 hours to 10 days for charges filed against youth with weapon offenses, or who have made threats against others. Then on March 14, hundreds of Bend students participated in the National School Walk Out, a growing student movement to protest gun violence.

Principal Scott Edmondson stands in the secure lobby at R.E. Jewell Elementary school in southeast Bend. The front door shows signs reminding visitors of the security measures in the school.

Another is scheduled for April 20. The debate over school safety is growing in intensity. Some call for arming teachers and a larger police presence in schools; others argue that’s a waste of resources and the money should be spent on mental health resources. Others feel tougher gun laws, such as banning “assault weapons,” is the answer. Arming Teachers? Deschutes County Sheriff Shane Nelson told the Source he’s not opposed to the idea of arming some school employees, if the program is properly set up and vetted. “They need to have appropriate training, review Oregon laws [and] they need to be proficient with firearms and backgrounded. If there is an active shooter situation, a CHL [concealed handgun license] holder could stop the threat almost immediately,” Nelson said. Student Lauren Hough, a senior at BSHS and an organizer for the 17 Days of Action Bend Instagram account, told the Source she strongly disagrees with the proposition of arming teachers. “Not only would it personally make me feel more unsafe to have more guns in school, but it is also widely unpopular among teachers in our district.” The school district isn’t advocating for or against arming teachers, said Julianne Repman, director of communication and school safety for the district. “School safety is a multifaceted issue that will need a multifaceted approach,” Amy Sabbadini, an International Baccalaureate teacher at BSH said. “The ratio of nurses, counselors, teachers and other important providers to students is far from ideal. “This community is going to have to decide if they believe in investing in us, in our youth, in being proactive, not reactive,” she said.

Secure Lobby Technology To date, the district has partnered with Texas-based Raptor Technologies in an effort to up the safety at schools. The district has been using Raptor’s safe lobbies system, meaning visitors have to present valid identification, which is scanned and checked against the sex offender registry and saved into a database. Repman said Raptor provides schools with a layer of security that they didn’t have when using the old paper and pencil volunteer management. She said Raptor’s service costs the district $540 per year. Many Bend schools already have the Secure Raptor entry, including Buckingham, Highland Magnet, R.E. Jewell Elementary, Silver Rail Elementary, and Pacific Crest and High Desert middle schools. Meanwhile, parents have done their own research. A parent on a Facebook forum concerning gun safety in BendLa Pine wrote in describing how she’d checked on safety at her child’s school, High Desert Middle, finding officials there had recently purchased inexpensive magnetic frames to secure doors in an emergency—though district officials did not confirm that by press time. None of the high schools have the secure entry areas yet, but the 2017 school bond will allow construction of secure lobbies, Repman said. Construction plans have been greenlighted to happen during the school year, not just in the summer, to get the lobbies up and running as soon as possible, according to a letter from Mikalson Feb. 26. “The purpose of a secure lobby is to both prevent and mitigate unauthorized entry,” Repman said. The secure lobby gives us natural surveillance of visitor/ volunteers, limits access to the school and gives more efficient screening of

persons entering the school.” When it comes to keeping a student or another person with a weapon off of school grounds, Repman said the district can create safety plans for those who have been identified as posing a previous or potential threat to our schools, but can’t predict the unexpected. “Like our homes, retail shops and other public places, we cannot stop an unexpected threat from entering, but we can certainly prepare for how we will respond,” she said. Tackling Gun Laws Another proposal is stricter gun laws. In October 2017, Sen. Ron Wyden (D-OR), helped introduce The Automatic Gun Fire Prevention Act, which would close a loophole that allows semiautomatic rifles to easily be modified— like “bump stocks”—to fire at the rate of automatic weapons. Wyden also helped introduce the Background Check Completion Act, which would require a completed background check for every gun buyer who buys a gun from a federally-licensed gun dealer. When a criminal background check indicates a firearm purchaser may have a criminal record, the FBI would try to determine whether the purchaser can legally buy a gun. Students including Hough support that. “I feel the most strongly about legislation that needs to be passed around gun control,” Hough said. “Although I believe safety measures are important, nothing outweighs access to guns.” Sheriff Nelson said we have some good laws in place right now, but he could see making “bump stocks” illegal. Police in Schools Upping the police presence in schools is another option—though Marc Shindler, head of the Justice Policy Institute, said in a story on National Public Radio that there’s no evidence to show that adding School Resource Officers actually results in safer schools. “In fact, the data really shows otherwise—that this is a largely failed approach in devoting a significant amount of resources but not getting the outcome in school safety that we are all looking for,” he said in that story. The Parkland, Fla., shooting had an armed SRO who remained outside the school, instead of entering the school and looking for the subject, according to a story on CNN.com. “The Parkland, Florida, situation has everything to do with two agencies admittedly not handling calls appropriately,” Nelson said. “Threats were reported to law enforcement and the FBI did not follow up.” Bend Police Department Lt. Clint Burleigh said his department finds that how they deploy their SROs and officers within and around the schools has been successful in many ways. “It isn’t all about responding to calls within the schools, it is about creating an environment that is safe for the students. We want to have a positive relationship with students, parents and staff throughout the schools,” he said.

A Riot Mentality—and a Public Health Approach? In “Thresholds of Violence” by Malcom Gladwell, the author quotes sociologist and Stanford professor Mark Granovetter’s research on “situations where outcomes do not seem intuitively consistent with the underlying individual preferences.” Gladwell said Granovetter used riots as one of his main examples in his research, because “a riot is a case of destructive violence that involves a great number of otherwise quite normal people who would not usually be disposed to violence.” Gladwell encourages looking at the school-shooting epidemic through Granovetter’s model, “to think of it as a slow-motion, ever-evolving riot, in which each new participant’s action makes sense in reaction to and in combination with those that came before.” In Gladwell’s article, sociologist Ralph Larkin argued that Columbine High School shooters Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold laid down the “cultural script” for the new generation of school shooters. Gladwell wrote that Larkin looked at 12 major school shootings after Columbine, between 1999 and 2007, finding that in eight of those the shooters made explicit reference to Harris and Klebold. The effect was, “to make it possible for people with far higher thresholds— boys who would ordinarily never think of firing a weapon at their classmates—to join in the riot.”

In “Here’s How to Prevent the Next School Shooting, Experts Say,” for NPR this month, author Anya Kamenetz highlighted the eight-point “Call for Action to Prevent Gun Violence in the United States of America,” the product of work by Matthew Mayer, a professor at Rutgers Graduate School of Education, along with 18 other professors. In that call for action, the authors note that prevention of gun violence needs to take a public health approach. For example, “instead of waiting for people to be rushed to emergency rooms with heart attacks or the flu, you go into the community: with vaccinations, screenings, fruits and vegetables, walking trails and exercise coaches.” With regard to gun violence, Kamenetz wrote, “you do your best to lower the background levels of bullying and discriminations. You track the data and perform what is called ‘threat assessments’ on potential risks.” Threat Assessment Teams While Superintendent Mikalson called for more funding for threat assessment teams in his call to action to the Oregon legislature, teams like that are already in place in some capacity in BLPS. A threat assessment team consists of the school principal, a school counselor, school psychologist and a school-based police officer. The Bend-La Pine school district is a member of the High Desert Student Threat Assessment System—a set of assessment protocols and safety planning procedures overseen and administered by a team comprised of schools, law enforcement, public mental health, the courts and juvenile corrections to promote safe school environments. “We have worked with the school district and High Desert ESD to implement a student threat assessment program,” Burleigh said. “We can work with our community partners, to include Deschutes County Mental Health, to assess threats within the school. “Our goal is not to arrest people, but to make sure each person is given the proper tools to be successful.” Mental health is also part of the equation. In his letter to families Feb. 26, Superintendent Mikalson added, “This school year, we added additional counselors to our secondary schools. We currently have more than 30 counselors who meet with students each day at our middle and high schools. In addition, schools have psychologists who provide student support and advocacy at all elementary, middle and high schools. We also employ two full-time therapists who support our highest needs students at our schools in Bend, La Pine and Sunriver.” Still, some parents see funding as a major barrier to moving forward. “We need to properly fund our schools if we really want to solve security issues,” parent Chisum said. “Perhaps part of that would go to security and infrastructure, but smaller class sizes and appropriate counselor-school psychologist rations are our best hope at preventing a student from becoming a security risk in the first place.” SW

According to Burleigh, there were two SROs in the late 1990s, at Mt. View High and BSHS. Currently, there are four SROs, one at each main high school. “The SRO at Marshall High School is also the primary officer for Skyview Middle School, Pilot Butte and Cascade Middle School. Our Summit SRO also covers Pacific Crest. We cover all the other Bend-La Pine schools within the city limits of Bend,” Burleigh said. Sgt. William Bailey, DCSO public information officer and records supervisor, said their office currently has four SROs: one that splits time in the La Pine area schools, one in Sisters schools and two that split time in Bend and Terrebonne at High Desert Middle, Tumalo Elementary, Buckingham Elementary and Terebonne Elementary. Burleigh said Bend PD is considering expanding the program with the addition of the new Bend high school around 2021. “Our philosophy is to have an SRO in each high school, and spending a great deal of time within the middle schools. Allowing for these positive relationships is beneficial for the entire community,” Burleigh said. “We see every year how the positive relationships make for safe schools,” he added. Angela Chisum, a parent in the BendLa Pine district, told the Source she’s not sure additional officers are the solution to school safety. “Bloated class sizes themselves are a security issue,” Chisum said. “The more students a teacher has, the less they are able to connect with each student, the less chance to identify issues that may become a bigger problem.”

Flogging Molly evolves with the music industry, bringing their high-energy Celtic rock to Bend By Anne Pick

Hope you got your tickets early to see Flogging Molly because this show is sold out! songs than we needed, so we’re releasing songs now,” Casey says. “You put 12 songs on a record and that’s that. Now, the world is going towards streaming and we thought we’ll release a couple tracks as time goes on. I think the record doesn’t seem to be a popular format anymore. The whole concept of putting out a single as a B-side or something like that, you can just release music now, it seems and it’ll go out on all of the services. We’re adapting and trying new things as we go along as well. Fifteen years ago we’d probably have saved these songs for another record.” For the last four years, Flogging Molly has hosted a punk rock cruise called the Salty Dog Cruise. Casey recalls on past cruises seeing Frank Turner playing in people’s rooms. Casey himself jams with attendees. The bands perform on a private island that the boat company owns. “I think the music industry is changing and people have to come up with creative ways to feed their

families. It’s hard to be a musician with VH1 showing the excess of rock and roll. A lot of people have families and want to support them, which has changed with people not buying records. Not that it’s all about the money. The experience is the key part.” Casey, who knew he wanted to be a career guitarist from age 13, took 25 years of struggling to get where he is today with Flogging Molly. He lives every day with gratitude. “To be in a band that plays all over the world, that writes great songs, I feel very blessed,” Casey says. “It’s something I always, always wanted to do and it’s really great.” SW Flogging Molly

VOLUME 22 ISSUE 12 / March 22, 2018 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

e tend to have a fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants culture in the music scene in Bend—which means few shows sell out months in advance. You can usually head down to the door and pay to get in at will. A few shows, on the other hand, demand a pre-sale code and tickets purchased as soon as they go on sale. The Irish punk band Flogging Molly falls into the latter, their Bend show having sold out months ago. Flogging Molly has earned a reputation over the past 20 years for energetic live shows, hence the instant sell-out. When I chatted with Flogging Molly’s guitarist Dennis Casey, I had to ask if he had any preshow rituals to get pumped up. “Mine would be several cups of coffee,” Casey says. “People think I’m crazy. I start drinking coffee at 9 o’clock at night, take several shots of whiskey, dress up maybe a little bit. We’re blessed with an audience that really shows you the energy—it’s hard not to be energetic back.” Flogging Molly plays Celtic-inspired punk rock with a positive bent, that despite taking on sometimes heavy, political topics, still draws people to the dance floor. Rather than writing about a specific political event, Flogging Molly’s lyricist and lead singer, Dave King, likes to tell the stories of a specific person, making the song more universal and relatable. “It’s touching somebody and moving them to either jump around—or people have cried, people have laughed,” Casey says. “That’s the joy of performing. I think a great song could be taken and used for the listener, interpreted in their own life and their own experiences.” In 2017, Flogging Molly released their first studio album in six years. “Life is Good” came after a change of management, the passing of parents for two band members and the addition of a new drummer. In 2018, we’ve heard new music from the band, which Casey attributes to the change we’ve experienced in the music industry. “We just recorded too many, or more than enough,

So Much Funk

Parallel 44 celebrates 1,000 shows in Central Oregon with George Clinton and Parliament Funkadelic By Anne Pick

n a recent Rolling Stone interview, Mr. P Funk himself, George Clinton, describes an alien encounter he had. But he also delves into his extensive knowledge of music—from doo woop to jazz to what he’s best known for— funk... and that last bit is why we’ll be at this week’s show, front and center. While thinking about this week’s show, another thought occurred to us: local music promoters Parallel 44 Presents and Red Light Productions teamed up to bring Mr. Clinton to Bend. That’s neat and all—but what’s really remarkable is that it marks the 1,000th show for Parallel 44. Shout out not only to Parallel 44 Presents and Red Light Productions, owned and operated by Gabe Johnson and Johnny Davis, respectively, but all of the concert promoters working to bring incredible musicians to Bend. For their 1,000th show, along with Red Light Productions, Parallel 44 presents one of the biggest living legends in music—Mr. George Clinton and Parliament Funkadelic! And to all Bend concert promoters, thank you for working hard and continuing to raise the bar for live music in Central Oregon.

Listening, Locally By Judy Stiegler

arbara Rich has been singing most of her life. She grew up in a musical family; her father was a classically trained organist and her mother sang. Rich sang in church choirs, school choirs and other groups during her youth. When she went off to college she took a more pragmatic approach, majoring in geology and mechanical engineering and then gaining a graduate degree in water resources. However, she didn’t forget her connection to music, participating in various choirs and vocal groups during her college years. When she moved to Bend in 1995, she took a break from music, focusing on her family and setting down roots. Her absence from the music world lasted only a few years. In 2001, at the urging of a friend, she joined the Cascade Chorale, thus starting her journey into the music scene in Central Oregon. Since then, Rich has also been involved in church choirs, Opera Bend and other vocal endeavors. These various experiences brought the motivation for the next chapter in her musical journey. Rich came to know many vocal and instrumental musicians through her years of involvement in the music scene in Central Oregon, realizing there were many beautiful voices who were not getting opportunities to solo and to grow their vocal talents. She also realized there were many instrumental musicians, including many young talented

artists, who had no platform to perform and polish their skills and be in front of an audience in a smaller group setting. Rich started working on the idea of giving musicians a venue to show off their talents, while giving Central Oregon the opportunity to see the amazing talent in the community. Rich’s idea gelled in 2014 in the creation of “Listen Local Live!”—an effort that “supports solo or small ensemble musicians by creating performance opportunities for local artists.” As the founder behind this effort, Rich set to work finding interested musicians, as well as community support. Needing a venue, she sought out several possibilities, ultimately settling into an arrangement with First Presbyterian Church in Bend to utilize their main sanctuary. The church offered reasonable rent, and a welcoming, usable venue for performers to exhibit their talents. The group held its first concert Jan. 17, 2015. Since then, the group has put on 11 concerts, with the most recent occurring on Feb. 3—an homage to sacred music. Concerts have been varied. Some have been exclusively vocal, some have had both vocal and instrumental musicians, and one featured only string instruments. Attracting musicians to

perform was one of the initial challenges, but that’s become much easier as more concerts have occurred. Rich has approached vocal and instrumental musicians she knows or has heard, and sometimes, they’ve approached her to perform at concerts. As word of mouth has spread, more and more musicians want to be involved. In fact, after 11 concerts, she has musicians who want to return and perform again. The featured artists in these concerts are not paid, and Rich takes no compensation for her efforts, either. The concerts are supported exclusively through donations. The funds pay for all costs associated with the concerts, including the venue, music and efforts to publicize the events. Audiences have been growing. The first concerts seated somewhere between 50 and 60 people. Conservative estimates of the size of the audience at the last concert Feb. 3 was 250+ attendees. Rich said they raised close to $1,000 in donations at this last concert, as well. For that concert, the bulk of the

funds received were donated back to the building and maintenance fund for the church. The next concert is scheduled for April 14 at First Presbyterian. Rich says the concert will swing back to the usual format, showcasing the talents of individual and small group musicians with a more classical repertoire. When asked what her ultimate goal is for this three-year-old effort, without hesitation she responded that it’s to continue to showcase the amazing musical talent in Central Oregon, and to urge people to come hear it.

reproduction of the human world in a playful, fun way. It was the arrival of a kiln in her home that beckoned Gilmore to explore. “That’s the ugly truth. It fell into my lap,” Gilmore admits. But it was this circumstance, combined with the desire to be part of the ever-growing maker’s community that was popping up in the Pacific Northwest, that led Gilmore to her next adventure in ceramics. All of Gilmore’s ceramics are slab built, each piece hand-rolled with giant rolling pins. Gilmore often uses the techniques used in sculpting fiber—often starting her design process with paper and creating templates she then transfers to clay. You can see this in work that looks delicate and fine—and you can also feel it.

Sally Gilmore is a sculptor. That much is clear. Often working in paper, fiber and textiles, Gilmore’s sculpture can bring laughter and intrigue. Her newest foray into ceramics had her friends and family stunned, but for Gilmore, it is the excitement of bringing sensuality to utilitarian items that’s exciting, reckoning back to her sculptural past. While receiving her Master of Fine Art degree at the Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts in Tempe, Ariz., Gilmore primarily explored the world of fiber. Often using Japanese paper to create elaborate paper mâché, Gilmore’s sculptures often connected the reproduction of the plant world to the

S P O

“I’ve been thinking about shape and texture and form, because I want them to feel sensual when you hold them. The texture is important and the way it feels against your skin,” Gilmore explains. The desire to create beautiful, useful objects drives Gilmore to continue to explore this new world of ceramics. It is so satisfying to make these things that will go into someone’s home and they will cherish it and love drinking their coffee out of it in the morning. I think there is some power in that.” Still, Gilmore has no desire to stop here. While time hasn’t allowed Gilmore to explore her love of fiber and paper more, she does plan on getting back into that in the near future. For now, though, Gilmore finds living in Bend a supportive arts community that has embraced her new world of exploration and inspired her to keep going deeper and share what she finds. SW

Singing the Secret Garden

Opera Bend brings shows to Redmond and Madras By Elizabeth Warnimont

“I felt like there was a niche for an opera company.” —JASON STEIN in Bend. I really wanted to take advantage of some of the great singers we have here, the great musicians we have here, and I felt like there was a niche for an opera company. “Since then we’ve been doing two to three operas or musicals per season. We’ve collaborated with The Cascade Chorale, Central Oregon Mastersingers and Central Oregon Symphony. As much as we can, we work with other like-minded organizations here to produce operas, which is not an easy task. It has all the same requirements as theater, but usually a much larger cast. In ‘The Secret Garden,’ it isn’t a huge

chorus, but there are more than 30 people on the stage.” The lead role of Mary Lennox is double-cast, featuring youngsters Katey James and Emma Morton. Meanwhile, the role of Colin Craven is played alternately by Gavin Felciano and Jakob Michael. All four young people are accomplished singers and more than capable actors, as witnessed during a recent rehearsal at Central Oregon Community College. They’re confident performers, expressive in manner and voice, and attentive to the timing and nuances of the production. Stein plays the part of Archibald Craven, the widowed uncle who takes in his orphaned niece while at the same time caring for his invalid son, Colin. Stein is a powerful singer and masters the role of the detached parent, eventually transformed by the influence of his joyful young charge. Baritone Zachary Lenox is Dr. Craven, brother to Archibald and caregiver to young Colin. Lenox brings richness and captivating expression to his role as the controlling but frustrated personal physician. The musical differs slightly from the familiar novel by Frances Burnett and the 1993 film. “I think the biggest difference from the book or the movie is how the folks who have already passed away are presented,” Stein explains. “Like the role of Lilly, Colin’s mother who died in childbirth, or the roles of Albert and Rose, Mary’s parents. In the musical, they play very prominent parts, to help guide Mary through this journey she’s going through. Lilly is Colin’s mother, and

pera Bend is bringing a joyful production to Redmond Friday, with Lucy Simon’s “The Secret Garden,” the story of a young English girl sent to live with relatives she never met after losing her parents to cholera in the early 1900s. The musical enjoyed over 700 performances on Broadway when it premiered in 1991, winning three Tonys and four Drama Desk awards, most notably for Outstanding Musical. The Opera Bend production continues in Madras Saturday. Opera Bend Co-Founder and Executive Director Jason Stein and his wife, Nancy Engebretson, founded Opera Bend in 2013. “My wife and I had been singing in Colorado for a few seasons, at Emerald City Opera in Steamboat Springs. On the way back from one of those trips, we decided we could do this

here she is guiding Mary, her niece, who has come to live in that house, in order to help her own son and husband to deal with her loss. “There is a little bit of confusion,” Stein adds, “especially in the beginning, to kind of get who’s alive and who’s not,” Stein adds. “I remember going through that in the Broadway show. There are also a few scenes that are complete dreams. All of a sudden, these characters are in a dream sequence, and the audience isn’t really told that. But I think that’s a choice the writers made, thinking that the audience will soon figure it out, so I have to trust that the writers know what they’re doing. The audience has to do a little bit of work. Even if people think that it’s real and then figure it out later, I think that’s fine.

“From the audience perspective, I would like people to walk out thinking, ‘Wow, those kids are so talented,’” Stein says. “They really are. Some of them are 11 years old. That’s one of the big things I hope they will come away with.” SW The Secret Garden

Elevated, award-winning tacos in Redmond By Lisa Sipe 29

Plant-based Color for Your Easter Eggs

Chef Amber Amos makes each corn tortilla by pressing masa, a corn flour dough, through a hand-cranked tortilla press, shown below, with delicious results.

the Vendy Awards, considered the Oscars of street food. Her cart’s root beer carnitas taco took second place in the people’s choice category. Amos had a really successful business on her hands, but didn’t want to raise her two boys in California, so she let her staff continue to run the business and she returned to her home state of Oregon. Last July she opened the Westside Taco Co. food truck at Kobold. Now, about those tacos. Amos makes her tacos from scratch, pushing masa, a corn flour dough, through a hand-cranked tortilla press. She added beet juice to the masa, resulting in marbled pink tortillas that she immediately places on the grill top. When the tortillas and fillings are cooked she builds the tacos with house-made sauces and escabeche, Mexican pickled vegetables. The final layer is crumbled cotija cheese and fresh cilantro. In addition to those more traditional ingredients, the tacos are packed with creative fillings: blueberry brisket barbacoa, root beer carnitas, red Thai curry, poblano chicken and buffalo chicken. We tried them all. The fresh tortillas are

thick, so unlike flimsy store-bought tortillas, they can hold a lot of toppings without falling apart. They also have a good bite to them. The barbacoa and carnitas tacos were rich and satisfying. The poblano chicken and the red Thai curry packed the most punch in tanginess and heat. Amos has a deft hand with her use of sauces and pickled vegetables, turning the tacos into perfect, filling, flavor bundles. Amos had a second Westside Taco Co. truck in Bend at the Deschutes Brewery on Simpson for a while, but says the spot didn’t get a lot of foot traffic. Amos is currently looking for a new permanent location in Bend. Until then it will be well worth the drive to Redmond to satisfy your taco cravings. SW

reader, Jay Whitney, wrote in to tell us about eating at the Westside Taco Co., saying they were the “best tacos I have literally ever had.” With that encouragement, I drove to Redmond to see if Whitney was right. The Westside Taco Co. is parked at Kobold Brewing on 6th Street, across from the Sears. In the truck window, you can find the menu for the tacos and “other stuff,” including chips and salsa. Almost everything at The Westside Taco Co. is made from scratch, with local ingredients, so the offerings change frequently based on what’s available. There’s seating on the patio with a fire pit, but we opted to place our order and sit inside Kobold to grab a beer. We started with a sampler of chips, salsa and stout-battered and fried zucchini and onion rings. The tortilla chips were freshly fried and thick, perfect for soaking up the three types of salsa. The hot red salsa was my favorite; roasted, smoky and tangy. The mango habanero salsa was on the edge of being too sweet but then it swung into spiciness on the back of my tongue—that sweethot combo that makes you eat way too many chips. The tomatillo verde salsa was the mildest, but it still had a good kick and a lot of tang. Drizzled on top of the zucchini and onion rings was a smoky barbecue sauce and crema. We could eat those sections on their own, but the naked ones I dipped in each kind of salsa. This was the perfect food to pair with my beer. Before I get to those tacos, the Westside Taco Co. isn’t new. Chef-owner Amber Amos started the restaurant in Southern California after having a successful catering company. She said, “Everyone always asked where to go for great tacos. After referring so many people, I just wanted to be that place.” She aimed to make street food, but elevated. Amos was classically French trained at Le Cordon Bleu and says she’s “done stuffy food, foam, nitrogen… it’s not who I am. I like food that reminds me of vacations I’ve been on.” Four months after opening the original Westside Taco Co., Amos was invited to compete at Tacolandia, an event featuring

33 VOLUME 22 ISSUE 12 / March 22, 2018 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

Alicia Vikander as Lara Croft...ready to raid some tombs.

don’t think I’ve ever had a video game spoil a movie for me. I’ve certainly read plenty of books that colored my enjoyment of their film adaptations, but video game movies are an entirely different beast. Terrible adaptations such as “Super Mario Brothers,” “Street Fighter” or “Assassin’s Creed” took just a few plot points from the games, spinning them into ridiculous (and usually boring) yarns that might give you the flavor of the game, without cap-

action set pieces hanging off crumbling relics with one hand. It’s like “The Da Vinci Code” if Tom Hanks had abs and a bow and arrow. Vikander is perfect as Lara Croft, bringing a humanity to the role that was sorely lacking. Jolie’s Croft never broke a sweat in her tiny shorts and tank top. Vikander’s Croft bleeds and sweats and screams in pain, since the film is one part origin story, one part a somewhat “realistic” take on the material. I would watch a dozen more “Tomb Raider” movies just to see Vikander get to play with a story less The previous movies spent several minutes constrained by the video games. luxuriating over Jolie’s body like she was water Director Roar Uthaug (“The Wave”) reads his audience well by removing the male gaze of the games and the old for a dying man. movies while still making it feel like a “Tomb Raider” stoturing what actually made them beloved in the first place. ry.

HEALTHY ADVENTURES AWAIT!

7 DAYS IN ENTEBBE: Based on the harrowing

true life story of the 1976 Air France hijacking, “7 Days in Entebbe” is a well-made if ultimately pointless thriller. The ground has been covered so thoroughly by other fi lms and documentaries that it all feels fairly repetitive. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX.

ANNIHILATION: Easily the weirdest and most

surreal theatrical fi lm since Cronenberg was experimenting with body horror. Five women cross a boundary into an area slowly changing into something otherworldly and dangerous. The imagery in this fi lm will stay with you. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House

BLACK PANTHER: The hype for the newest

fi lm in Marvel’s slate of superhero fl icks has been overwhelming and, amazingly, the fi lm completely deserves it. “Black Panther” is less of a superhero movie with some drama thrown in than a family drama with some superheroes sprinkled throughout. A genuinely thoughtful and powerful fi lm that fi nally puts an African-American hero front and center. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Redmond Cinema

DEATH WISH: Bruce Willis stars in this remake of a bad Charlie Bronson movie. This movie isn’t just poorly timed, but it’s also an offensive wet dream for gun lobbyists and wanna-be vigilantes, desperate for their own movie to show how tough a “good guy with a gun” can really be. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX,

A FANTASTIC WOMAN: Marina is a trans woman dating an older man named Orlando. When Orlando dies from a brain aneurysm, Marina has to fi ght in order to be accepted by his family so she can mourn her partner. Tin Pan Theater GAME NIGHT: With a cast featuring Jason

Bateman, Rachel McAdams, Kyle Chandler, Lamorne Morris and Jesse Plemons, it’s really hard to go wrong. Luckily, “Game Night” works as a hilarious comedy and a mystery/thriller in equal measures, making for one of the most entertaining movies of the year. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House, Redmond Cinema.

THE GREATEST SHOWMAN: Hugh Jack-

man started his career as a song and dance man, so it’s fi tting that he returns in a giant Hollywood musical about the life of P.T. Barnum. Who wants to guess whether the fi lm soft pedals the animal abuse and mistreatment of the side show attractions? Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

GRINGO: An action/comedy with a perfect

cast featuring David Oyelowo, Charlize Theron, Thandie Newton and Joel Edgerton. It focuses on a peaceful Nigerian businessman caught between mercenaries, drug lords and a groundbreaking weed pill. Looks like a fun ride at the movies. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House

THE HURRICANE HEIST: This movie follows

a pair or Alabama brothers who take on a group of robbers during a deadly hurricane. Basically, it’s the best episode of “The Dukes of Hazzard” ever. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Redmond Cinema

I, TONYA: This blisteringly funny biopic about the infamous Tanya Harding manages to make the fi gure skater much more human than the news ever did. Just when you think the story can’t get more outrageous, a dozen new barriers are crossed. Tin Pan Theater.

I CAN ONLY IMAGINE: A true story about Bart Millard, the lead singer of the Christian band, MercyMe. When his father dies, he pens the titular song, which is apparently a real thing, popular in the world right now. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX. JUMANJI: WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE:

Loosely connected to the original “Jumanji” starring Robin Williams, this reboot updates the story of kids sucked into a board game into something for the digital age. Starring Kevin Hart, Jack Black, The Rock and Karen Gillan, this looks much more entertaining than it has any right to be. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

LOVE, SIMON: A tear-jerking and crowd-pleasing teen dramedy about the inherent diffi culty in coming out to your friends and family. Bring tissues and a developed sense of empathy and humanity. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX. PETER RABBIT: From the director of “Easy A”

comes the story of “Peter Rabbit” and his war with the nasty Mr. McGregor. Combining CGI with live action, “Peter Rabbit” looks like a cute companion to fi lms such as “Paddington” and “Babe.” Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

RED SPARROW: Jennifer Lawrence re-teams

with her “Hunger Games” director to take on a paranoid spy thriller. Reviews are mixed and there’s some weird Lawrence backlash going on right now, but she’s still one of the fi nest actresses of her generation. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

THE SHAPE OF WATER: The delightful love story about a mute cleaning woman and her torrid romance with a fi sh monster. It begins to make more sense knowing it’s from the mind of visionary fi lmmaker Guillermo Del Toro, the mastermind behind “Crimson Peak” and “Pan’s Labyrinth.” Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX THE STRANGERS: PREY AT NIGHT: The

long-awaited sequel to one of the creepiest home invasion horror fl icks of all time. If it’s half as scary as the original, then it will have been worth the wait. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

THOROUGHBREDS: A blackly funny look at disaffected youth, being compared to such genre staples as “Heathers” and “American Psycho.” The fi lm also contains the fi nal screen performance of Anton Yelchin, just to make things more uncomfortable. See full review on p 35. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House TOMB RAIDER: Alicia Vikander is excellent as Lara Croft, the duel pistol-welding raider of tombs. While the fi lm follows the formula fairly faithfully, Vikander is so great that another dozen or so adventures would be greatly appreciated.

children’s book by Madeleine L’Engle, this adaptation takes the important thematic and story points and leaves the rest.

River Talk

A three-year-long study of the Upper Deschutes is nearing completion. Here’s what two local river advocates think so far By: K.M. Collins

rights to use water than actual water supply. And with most water in this basin allocated to agriculture, other water needs have suffered, particularly the river where many streams experience altered stream flows that result in either not enough water or too much water to support viable aquatic species and diverse habitat. It is important for water managers to understand how to meet these needs better now and in the future, particularly in the face of growing demands and a changing climate. Water is essential to life. It needs to be shared equitably if fish, farms, and families are going to have enough water in the right place at the right time in order to survive. The Basin Study has laid out where the problems are today and the tools available to us to solve these problems. GS: Water is essential to life. It needs to be shared equitably if fish, farms and families are going to have enough water in the right place at the right time in order to survive. The Basin Study has laid out where the problems are today and the tools available to us to solve these problems. SW: Recently there was litigation over Deschutes River flow levels on behalf of the Oregon Spotted Frog. What other species could be at risk in the basin if measures aren’t taken to protect flows? NB: Current water management in the Upper Deschutes affects other species, most notably native redband trout. Although not an aquatic species, farmers’ livelihoods in the Culver and Madras area are at risk if measures aren’t taken to protect flow in the Upper Deschutes. GS: Personally, I think a better way to approach this is from a community-wide perspective, recognizing that no species, including humans, functions in isolation from any other. Ecosystems are complex and interwoven. If we restore more natural flows to our rivers, frogs, fish, birds, bugs… everything will do better. SW: Why is it important for river conservationists to work peacefully

Surface water, such as this flowing over Dillon Falls, is just one aspect of an impending river study.

with the irrigation districts, even though it might seem, at first glance, their interests are at odds? NB: Surface water in the Upper Deschutes River basin is fully allocated, primarily for irrigation use. Under current water law, this is perfectly legal. Irrigation districts have a right to use the water and although our legal system allows for irrigation districts to transfer water use from an irrigation to instream purpose, it does not compel it. Working collaboratively with irrigation districts is essential to addressing water use and management imbalances in the Upper Deschutes Basin. At the DRC, we work to restore streamflow for fish and wildlife but not at the expense of our agricultural communities. We work with all interested stakeholders to identify creative solutions to provide a balance between all water uses. GS: We are in a transformational period in this watershed. Getting to success requires moving beyond blame. It requires coordination between all parties, including the districts, river advocates and cities. It requires cultural change all around. That’s not simple, but it is necessary. We have irrigation districts in Central Oregon who are forward-looking and solution-oriented and working incredibly hard to help restore our rivers by conserving water in their

irrigation operations. SW: What is the outcome your organization is looking for in supporting the Basin Study? NB: A shared understanding of the options available to move water between uses and users in a way that secures and maintains a) streamflows and water quality for fish and wildlife, b) a reliable and affordable supply of water to sustain agriculture, and c) affordable and high-quality water supply for growing urban communities. GS: The Basin Study has shone a light on present conditions and illuminated possible paths for going forward. It doesn’t prescribe next steps. It’s our community’s privilege to participate in determining what our collective future looks like. Decisions will be made, and if we as a community want to have a say in that process, we need to be at the table.

ike a Central Oregonian impatiently waiting to go for a swim on a hot high desert day, Natasha Bellis and Gail Snyder jumped right into the hyped Upper Deschutes River Basin Study. After rolling up their sleeves and getting their hands wet, Bellis, program manager for the Deschutes River Conservancy and Snyder, co-founder and executive director of Coalition for the Deschutes, are eager to splash readers with the finer points of the study. We sat down with them to discuss. Source Weekly: What is the Basin Study and why is it a hot topic all of a sudden? Natasha Bellis: The Deschutes River Conservancy, together with over 30 basin stakeholders and several funders, are just completing the Upper Deschutes River Basin Study, a threeyear planning study focused on meeting water needs for rivers, irrigated agriculture and growing communities in the Deschutes Basin over the next 50 years. The Study began in 2015 and will formally conclude this September. Gail Snyder: The Basin Study steering committee wanted to bring the information that has been gathered out into our community. We have the chance to restore the Deschutes River, maintain farming in Central Oregon and provide water for our cities. To do that, we need participation by all parties and support from the community. The Basin Study is to be commended for being inclusive and taking a big-tent approach. SW: Why is the Deschutes River Basin Study important to Central Oregonians? NB: The rivers and creeks that make up the Upper Deschutes Basin are the lifeblood of Central Oregon communities. They provide residents clean drinking water, habitat for fish and other aquatic species, irrigation water for crops and recreational opportunities that support our growing tourism industry. Surface water in the Upper Deschutes River basin is over-allocated in many months, meaning that there are more

Bugging Out!

After a host of bugs come in, our Natural World columnist has something to say

39 VOLUME 22 ISSUE 12 / March 22, 2018 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

By Jim Anderson Enough is enough, all you good people! I’m all bugged out! Thank you for the response to my request for the bugs mentioned in my kissing bug piece, published in the Source Feb. 14. Those of you who sent me notes about bugs in their lives—and especially those who sent me the actual bugs and left them at the Source office and other places—helped me to achieve the end I was looking for: knowing a good cross-section of the bugs that are active around Central Oregon in February and March, and also answering the question of whether any were those repulsive, disease-carrying kissing bugs. Most of those I received from all you wonderful people are plant suckers: no assassin or kissing bugs. And, as most of them were found in or near woodpiles, it wasn’t surprising that most were western conifer seed bugs, while the others are pests of other plants. None—happily—are suckers of human blood. I very much appreciate the response to my request for bug samples. I had a similar experience back in the mid-’60s when hundreds (if not thousands) of snowy owls from the far north invaded this part of the country, some traveling as far south as San Franscisco. I was the staff naturalist at the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry that year, and also writing for The Oregonian’s magazine insert. As a result of the paper publishing my story on the snowy owl movement, readers responded to my request for owls they observed, and I personally handled over 215 of them. Dr. Matt Maberry, the zoo vet in Portland, flew us around the state in his sweet old Mooney airplane, checking on the notes I received from Oregonian readers. You might be surprised to know that most of the owls that made it this far were starving to death. Some actually died in my hands when I picked them up from the ground. However,

The author takes a close look at some small dark objects that could be raisins, but are probably bugs.

those that stopped in the tundra-like habitat with sand dunes and grasses made a living on the local voles and survived to go back north. So, thank you again for bugging me out. It’s gratifying to know so many enjoy my work and equally enjoy helping me out when I need it. Still, when you go to Arizona and other locations down south, knock any bug off of you that’s dark and fat-looking. SW

For three months, things were going really well with this man I was dating. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d introduced me to his daughter. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d even planned a trip together. And then he just disappeared. I eventually texted him to find out what happened, but he simply texted back, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Really busy, all good.â&#x20AC;? This isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the first time this has happened to me or my girlfriends. Why do men do this? Why donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t they tell you whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really going on?Â --Upset When a guy just cuts you off like a bad tree limb, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s tempting to come up with ego-cushioning explanations: Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in a coma! Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s trapped in a wooded gully in his crashed car! Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s being interrogated at a CIA black site! (â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sorryâ&#x20AC;ŚMr. Jones is getting a series of painful electric shocks to his nipples right now and cannot come to the phone.â&#x20AC;?)Â Â However, the best explanation for this manâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s disappearance is probably textbook stuffâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; psych textbook, that is, and specifically a couple of personality traits. One of these is â&#x20AC;&#x153;conscientiousness.â&#x20AC;? And the bad side of the spectrum is being â&#x20AC;&#x153;low in conscientiousnessâ&#x20AC;?â&#x20AC;&#x201D;psychologistsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; term for a person who is careless, irresponsible, impulsive, and lacking in self-control and who habitually ducks his obligations (as if they were flaming arrows). The other trait is the unfortunately named â&#x20AC;&#x153;psychopathy.â&#x20AC;? Though it calls to mind shower-stabbing hobbyists, it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t necessarily lead to murderous rampages. Still, it isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t exactly the personality trait of angelic hospice nurses, as itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s marked by exploitiveness, aggression, poor impulse control, self-centeredness, and a lack of empathy.Â Low conscientiousness and psychopathy partner up into an inability or unwillingness to admit to being wrong. Apologizing takes emotional strength and character strengthâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; the conscientiousness and empathy that leave the wrongdoer feeling borderline queasy until they come clean and express remorse to the person they hurt. It isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just men who do the disappearo thing; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s anyone low on conscientiousness. The problem is, when love appears to be on the horizon, we want to believe more than we want to see. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s helpful to take an almost pessimistic approach to any new relationship: Assume a man has flaws; figure out what they are; and decide whether any are deal breakers. This takes observing his behavior over time (at least a year) in a variety of situationsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;especially crisis situations. You want to know that when the chips are down, a manâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll have your backâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;and not just

to use you as a human shield so the SWAT team snipers wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t pick him off.

Shudder Speed Every photo my boyfriend takes of me is horrific (one eye kind of shut, bad angle of my face, etc.). My female friends take decent pictures of me, so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not like itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s impossible. I know my boyfriend loves me and thinks Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m beautiful. Could he be trying to keep other men from being attracted to me? --Occasional Bride Of Frankenstein Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d think you wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to give a man who loves you a detailed list of instructions for photographing youâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;down to â&#x20AC;&#x153;immediately erase any shots in which I look like Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m having a seizure or bear a strong resemblance to a surprised goat.â&#x20AC;?Â In fact, you are far from alone in complaining that the man you love takes terrible pictures of youâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;or in worrying that it means something. However, this worry of yours probably comes Amy Alkon out of what I call our mindâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s neatfreakitude. Research by cognitive neuroscientist Michael Gazzaniga suggests we get so itchy over mental chaosâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;being in a state of uncertainty about someone or somethingâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re quick to sweep aside inconsistencies and ignore missing information in service of creating a coherent narrative. And then (conveniently!) we turn right around and go with the story weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve createdâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;in this case, the suspicion that your boyfriend is plotting to make you look uggo in photographs. The reality is, if you arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a professional model being shot by a professional photographer, it sometimes takes dozens of shots to have even one you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to delete in horror. (Shoot my long face from above, as my boyfriend sometimes forgets and does, and I look like a movie star -- the horse that played Seabiscuit.) Because men evolved to prioritize physical attractiveness in women and women coevolved to expect this, women are extremely sensitive to being photographed in ways that donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t show them off at their sparkliest. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s probably why, if you glance at various 20-something womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Instagram pages, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll see that many strike the very same pose in photo after photo (having figured out their exact best angle, to the micrometer). Sure, some men are as acutely sensitive about engineering their perfect poseâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;mostly those whose work attire is a sequined evening dress, a ginormous feather boa, and chandelier earrings the size of New Jersey.

ASTROLOGY

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Europeans used to think that all swans were white. It was a reasonable certainty given the fact that all swans in Europe were that color. But in 1697, Dutch explorer Willem de Vlamingh and his sailors made a pioneering foray to the southwestern coast of the land we now call Australia. As they sailed up a river the indigenous tribe called *Derbarl Yerrigan,* they spied black swans. They were shocked. The anomalous creatures invalidated an assumption based on centuries of observations. Today, a “black swan” is a metaphor referring to an unexpected event that contravenes prevailing theories about the way the world works. I suspect you’ll soon experience such an incongruity yourself. It might be a good thing! Especially if you welcome it instead of resisting it. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Crayola is one of the world’s foremost crayon manufacturers. The geniuses in charge of naming its crayon colors are playful and imaginative. Among the company’s standard offerings, for example, are Pink Sherbet, Carnation Pink, Tickle Me Pink, Piggy Pink, Pink Flamingo, and Shocking Pink. Oddly, however, there is no color that’s simply called “Pink.” I find that a bit disturbing. As much as I love extravagant creativity and poetic whimsy, I think it’s also important to cherish and nurture the basics. In accordance with the astrological omens, that’s my advice for you in the coming weeks. Experiment with fanciful fun, but not at the expense of the fundamentals.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): According to *Vice* magazine, Russian scientist Anatoli Brouchkov is pleased with the experiment he tried. He injected himself with 3.5-million-year-old bacteria that his colleagues had dug out of the permafrost in Siberia. The infusion of this ancient life form, he says, enhanced his energy and strengthened his immune system. I can’t vouch for the veracity of his claim, but I do know this: It’s an apt metaphor for possibilities you could take advantage of in the near future: drawing on an old resource to boost your power, for example, or calling on a well-preserved part of the past to supercharge the present.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Booze has played a crucial role in the development of civilization, says biomolecular archaeologist Patrick McGovern. The process of creating this mind-altering staple was independently discovered by many different cultures, usually before they invented writing. The buzz it provides has “fired our creativity and fostered the development of language, the arts, and religion.” On the downside, excessive consumption of alcohol has led to millions of bad decisions and has wrecked countless lives. Everything I just said is a preface to my main message, Leo: The coming weeks will be a favorable time to transform your habitual perspective, but only if you do so safely and constructively. Whether you choose to try intoxicants, wild adventures, exhilarating travel, or edgy experiments, know your limits. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): The astrological omens suggest that the coming weeks will be favorable for making agreements, pondering mergers, and strengthening bonds. You’ll be wise to deepen at least one of your commitments. You’ll

stir up interesting challenges if you consider the possibility of entering into more disciplined and dynamic unions with worthy partners. Do you trust your own perceptions and insights to guide you toward ever-healthier alliances? Do what you must to muster that trust.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): If you want people to know who you really are and savor you for your unique beauty, you must be honest with those people. You must also develop enough skill to express your core truths with accuracy. There’s a similar principle at work if you want to know who you really are and savor yourself for your unique beauty: You must be honest with yourself. You must also develop enough skill to express your core truths with accuracy. The coming weeks will be a favorable time for you to practice these high arts. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Your journey in the coming weeks may be as weird as an R-rated telenovela, but with more class. Outlandish, unpredictable, and even surreal events could occur, but in such a way as to uplift and educate your soul. Labyrinthine plot twists will be medicinal as well as entertaining. As the drama gets curioser and curioser, my dear Scorpio, I expect you will learn how to capitalize on the odd opportunities it brings. In the end, you will be grateful for this ennobling respite from mundane reality!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): “Love is the only sane and satisfactory answer to the problem of human existence,” wrote philosopher Erich Fromm. I would add a corollary for your rigorous use during the last nine months of 2018: “Love is the only effective and practical way to graduate from your ragged, long-running dilemmas and start gathering a new crop of fresh, rousing challenges.” By the way, Fromm said love is more than a warm and fuzzy feeling in our hearts. It’s a creative force that fuels our willpower and unlocks hidden resources.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): My goal here is to convince you to embark on an orgy of self-care -to be as sweet and tender and nurturing to yourself as you dare to be. If that influences you to go too far in providing yourself with luxurious necessities, I’m OK with it. And if your solicitous efforts to focus on your own health and well-being make you appear a bit self-indulgent or narcissistic, I think it’s an acceptable price to pay. Here are more key themes for you in the coming weeks: basking in the glow of self-love; exulting in the perks of your sanctuary; honoring the vulnerabilities that make you interesting. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): One day, Beatles’ guitarist George Harrison decided to compose his next song’s lyrics “based on the first thing I saw upon opening any book.” He viewed this as a divinatory experiment, as a quest to incorporate the flow of coincidence into his creative process. The words he found in the first book were “gently weeps.” They became the seed for his tune “While My Guitar Gently Weeps.” *Rolling Stone* magazine ultimately named it one of “The Greatest Songs of All Time” and the tenth best Beatle song. In accordance with the astrological omens, I recommend you try some divinatory experiments of your own in the coming weeks. Use life’s fun little synchronicities to generate playful clues and unexpected guidance.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Millions of you Pisceans live in a fairy tale world. But I suspect that very few of you will be able to read this horoscope and remain completely ensconced in your fairy tale world. That’s because I have embedded subliminal codes in these words that will at least temporarily transform even the dreamiest among you into passionate pragmatists in service to your feistiest ideals. If you’ve read this far, you are already feeling more disciplined and organized. Soon you’ll be coming up with new schemes about how to actually materialize a favorite fairy tale in the form of real-life experiences.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): The “School of Hard Knocks” is an old-fashioned idiom referring to the unofficial and accidental course of study available via life’s tough experiences. The wisdom one gains through this alternate approach to education may be equal or even superior to the knowledge that comes from a formal university or training program. I mention this, Aries, because in accordance with astrological omens, I want to confer upon you a diploma for your new advanced degree from the School of Hard Knocks. (P.S.: When PhD students get their degrees from Finland’s University of Helsinki, they are given top hats and swords as well as diplomas. I suggest you reward yourself with exotic props, too.)

WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / March 22, 2018 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

Nevermind the facts—don’t do the wacky tobaccy!

t’s no surprise that the vast majority of my interactions, be they electronic or IRL, involve people, businesses and organizations that are “pro-cannabis.” Many are employed in the cannabis industry, both recreational and medical, and have a financial interest as business owners, investors or employees—or they’re medical patients finding relief from a number of physical and psychological ailments and conditions. Or they’re simply consumers: people who partake of cannabis in many forms to enhance, enrich and increase the enjoyment levels of their professional and personal lives. Others may not have a financial or medical/personal stake, but they have no problem with those who do, and recognize that those who produce, provide and partake of cannabis are their neighbors, friends, children, parents and partners—not strung-out addicts, violent cartel members or whatever endlessly flogged stereotype, probably racist, that the “anti-cannabis” lot created and has put forth for decades. These people may, or may not, recognize and support the tax revenue generated and jobs created by a legalized, regulated recreational program. But they aren’t actively seeking to limit access, ostracize or punish those who feel differently. But both this column and my other work requires exposure to those who feel very differently, and their concerns and fears. The emphasis is on “fears.” My recent takeaway has been that people who don’t support the growing access to cannabis for recreational and legal use around the country are afraid many, many horrible things will happen when that access is established. (I’m not including anyone who financially benefits from cannabis prohibition—pharmaceutical companies, the correctional facility industry, certain branches of law enforcement, etc., and looking at individuals and advocacy groups.) Sorry to say, there is no shortage of examples, but two recently came to my attention. They are “trigger warning” worthy, and you may wish to avoid them like one of those SPCA commercials, where they are rescuing those dogs and - CHANGE THE CHANNEL! CHANGE THE DAMN CHANNEL! While it’s valuable to maintain

awareness of what those on the “other side” are stating and supporting, it’s not much fun. First up: The brain trust at Facebook made a page suggestion to me for a group called “Parents Opposed to Pot,” which took me to their site, poppot.org. If you need a one-stop site filled with hysterical, fear-based misinformation and rabid, ill-informed foaming at the mouth militant hatred of cannabis and those who partake, welcome! There are over 20 different sections of ranting, including, “The Truth of Deaths Caused by Marijuana Overdose.” The “Environment” section warns us of those who “Dumpster Dive for Weed that they can sell to others,” and Oregon even gets a shout out in a piece called “Marijuana Lobby Plays Retribution and Slander to the Max.” Enter this tin foil hat brigade of fuckery only after finding a relaxing strain, abandoning all hope of rational thought and constructive engagement. Up next: The Garden State of New Jersey is exploring implementing a regulated legalization program for cannabis. Recently, the Legislative Black Caucus, comprised of 19 Democrats, heard testimony. During the first of three forums on the matter, they heard from 17 speakers—only two in favor of legalization. The meeting was organized and led by Sen. Ronald Rice, a former Newark police detective opposed to legalization. He refused to allow testimony from the head of the local ACLU-NJ coalition, New Jersey United for Legalization Reform, and instead recruited 15 fervent anti-cannabis speakers with the help of the Virginia based nonprofit Smart Approaches to Marijuana. SAM fears that “Big Cannabis” is on par with “Big Tobacco,” but that’s just one of their fears. Regarding medical marijuana, they state, “Smoking the raw form of marijuana is akin to smoking opium to get the effects of morphine,” and that “marijuana meets the technical definition of Schedule I because it has a high potential for abuse and has no FDA-approved use.” They’re pro-Sessions. Enough said. This is what prohibitionist belief systems look like. If you want to convince those on the fence about cannabis, explore what the opposition believes. Then speak truth to power, loudly.
