OPINION Letters
IN RESPONSE TO “WILDERNESS - MT. BIKE FIGHT BREWING” (3/31)
Nor is it accurate to say that “leaving a tire track is far less impactful than a hunter killing an animal.” Sportsmen fund the bulk of state fish and wildlife agencies’ budgets. They also contribute hundreds of millions of dollars annually through the Pittman-Robertson act, the Dingell-Johnson act, the Federal Duck Stamp program and others. Hunting is tied to conservation in a way that mountain biking and other forms of outdoor recreation are not. The Wilderness act isn’t about favoring one user group over another. It’s about preserving the values that made establishing the act necessary in the first place. ~Ed Putnam
IN RESPONSE TO “TINY HOMES” (3/24) While I love the tiny home concept (have been in a few...know some who have built them), but other than the loft space, why not just buy a much cheaper trailer? Which according to the article, is already built within code. And just a note...there are quite a few RVs in driveways and in the streets that appear to have people living in them...not RV parks. ~Doug Cristafir
IN RESPONSE TO “TINY HOMES” (3/24) The City of Bend and Jim [Long] need to address tiny homes in a real practical manner. Cottage code... one acre lots...What a joke! The city would rather see folks sleep on the ground, just to protect the ridiculous value of land/homes they own in Bend. Put 20 on a standard lot! Figure it out. #doyourjob
~Vanessa Schul
IN RESPONSE TO “GO HERE: MOUNTAIN BIKING FOR GIRLS,” (3/24) Mountain biking, besides being expensive and very environmentally destructive, is extremely dangerous. Serious accidents and even deaths are commonplace. Bicycles should not be allowed in any natural area. They are inanimate objects and have no rights. There is also no right to mountain bike. That was settled in federal court in 1996. [Bicycle Trails Council of Marin vs. Babbitt, 9th Circuit Court, 1996.] It’s dishonest of mountain bikers to say that they don’t have access to trails closed to bikes. They have exactly the same access as everyone else – on foot! Why isn’t that good enough for mountain bikers? They are all capable of walking. A favorite myth of mountain bikers is that mountain biking is no more harmful to wildlife, people, and the environment than hiking, and that science supports that view. Of course, it’s not true. Mountain biking accelerates erosion, creates V-shaped ruts, kills small animals and plants on and next to the trail, drives wildlife and other trail users out of the area, and, worst of all, teaches kids that the rough treatment of nature is OK (it’s not!). ~Mike Vandeman
IN RESPONSE TO “TINY HOMES,” (3/24) Last week, the Oregon Department of Fish & Wildlife killed four wolves of the Imnaha pack (including the alpha male, father of the infamous OR-7 who traversed California looking for a mate), citing “problem wolves” preying on cows and sheep. When wolves first crossed the border into Oregon, I attended a presentation given by ODFW in Bend. Rather than celebrate wolves, the language used was predictable “problem wolves... depradation... chronic loss-

ODFW is an agency that facilitates the killing of wildlife, be it through hunting, fishing, trapping or federal execution. Here we are, in the midst of the sixth extinction with 52 percent of the world’s wildlife obliterated in just four decades (Living Planet Report), and we wonder why there’s a lurking misery around us.

es... euthanasia...”. Euthanasia is mercy killing. There is no mercy in a system that murders reintroduced animals for being carnivores, so let’s start by using the correct language. Furthermore, livestock losses to wolves and other predators accounts for 0.23% of total losses. Wolves are just a scapegoat.

That was a truly amazing article that [Brian Jennings] wrote. We thank you for highlighting this issue. I wrote a response to some of Jim Long's assertions. I’d like to clarify a few assumptions that Jim Long makes in this article. Comments are below: 1. The “cottage code” that Long says is part of the solution to Bend’s housing crisis doesn’t make financial sense when you consider the land that is currently for sale in Bend. To adhere to the code, the lot must be an acre or more. According to Zillow there are 16 lots

over one acre within the city limits; however, 14 of these are in subdivisions such as, North Rim, Awbrey Butte and Skyliner Summit which have CCRs [Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions] and don’t allow for cottage housing. This leaves only two lots, which cost $1.25 million and $1.54 million, respectively. If you built four tiny houses on this land – the subdivided lots would cost $312,000. Add $100,000 to build the house and you’re looking at a 400 square-foot house that would cost over $400,000. If you bought a cottage house in this development, you would be the proud owner of the most expensive per square foot house in Bend. 2. Jim Long also says he has concerns about safety. “They’re not covered by any kind of building code, and that’s the scariest thing that I find.” We fully agree with him on this point. We have been trying to work with the city for over a year to design this code. We’ve even sent the city sample code based on a blog post from Eli Spevak. The fact is, people are building and living in Tiny Houses right now in Bend. We need to come up with this code to keep people safe. We would love to meet with Jim Long and discuss what this code could look like. Let’s do this sooner than later. 3. Jim Long says that Tiny Houses are technically RVs. Not true. Tiny Houses are insulated
like a regular house. They are designed to be lived in year round – RVs are not. The plastic, synthetic resins, and vinyl used to build RVs are laced with various chemicals such as formaldehyde, petroleum-based toxins and a variety of other chemicals which cause harmful off-gassing and have been shown to cause cancer. Tiny houses can be built with materials that are free of toxic materials. And the most important difference: A Tiny House feels like you are living in a house, not squatting in a trailer. We look forward to meeting with Jim Long or anyone else who wants to discuss real solutions to the problem our hometown is facing. ~Jesse Russell, TongueandGrooveHomes.com

ore than 111 million Americans of voting age didn’t vote in the 2012 presidential election. Data collected by the U.S. Census Bureau shows that the least likely of all to vote are 18 to 24-year olds - just 17 percent reported voting in 2014. By age 65 and older, that jumps to 59.4 percent, which is better, but with room for improvement.

Voter demographics are shifting in Deschutes County, with the gap between Republicans and Democrats narrowing in recent years and more people registering as Democrats, although Republicans are still the majority. As of April 1, there are 37,880 registered Republicans and 34,167 registered Democrats in Deschutes County, according to Deschutes County’s Monthly Voter Registration Report. The county received 6,327 voter registration cards during the month of March. Oregon’s primary election date is the third Tuesday in May. The Republicans and Democrats will announce Presidential nominations in July. The winnertake-all delegate system in many states means party nominees are often easy to guess before Oregon’s voting date. This
year, however, things could go differently. Donald Trump is currently far ahead of Ted Cruz in the race for Republican delegate votes. However, to be the automatic Republican candidate he must win more than half of all delegates. Without a majority, the Republican party is free to choose someone else. Currently, Hillary Clinton is ahead of Bernie Sanders in the race for Democratic delegates, but the journey is far from over. On the Republican side, although Trump is ahead of Cruz, the vote is divided among more candidates, so he is not assured a majority. Trump, well-known as a reality TV host and entrepreneur, has during his campaign called for the punishment of women when he bans abortion, called global warming a hoax, recommended torture, and indicated he would cut funding to the Dept. of Education, among other things. PolitiFact, winner of the Pulitzer Prize, has calculated Trump’s statements of fact are false 78 percent of the time [false: 42 percent; mostly false: 17 percent; and “pants on fire,” (i.e. overwhelmingly wrong): 19 percent]. Democrat or Republican, get on fire to vote May 17. The last day to register by mail to vote in the primary election is April 26. The primary election date in Oregon is May 17. The last day to register to vote in the presidential election (in Oregon) is Oct. 18, and the General Election will be held Nov. 8. Voter registration can be accomplished online and voter registration forms are available from the post office. SW

Presidential Primary Preview Party play and superdelegate side deals
SIDE NOTES By Sherron Lumley

Republican frontrunner Donald Trump; Democratic candidates Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton.
B
y now, delegate votes are being racked and tallied and the presidential primaries are getting exciting. In April, the big dates to watch for the Republican and Democratic primaries will be April 19, when New Yorkers will vote, and April 26, when five states will hold primaries including Connecticut, Delaware, Maryland, Pennsylvania and Rhode Island. Oregon’s primary is held on the third Tuesday in May, which this year falls on May 17. New York is important because of the high number of delegates at stake. There are 291 Democratic delegates in New York and 95 Republican delegates. It’s also interesting because three of the candidates have ties to New York (Republican Donald Trump, and Democratic candidates Sen. Bernie Sanders and former U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton). Winning the Democratic nomination in 2016 will require 2,383 of 4,765 total Democratic delegates. For Republicans, 1,237 of 2,472 Republican delegates are needed. Oregon has 74 Democratic delegates and 28 Republican delegates.
Superdelegates Last weekend in downtown Bend, people responded to the question: “What do you think about superdelegates?” The answers ranged from “I think I’ve heard of them,” to “I’m really mad about what happened in 1968.” Delegate math is a science unto itself and differs from state to state and party to party and rules change election to election, so it’s not at all unusual to be perplexed by this system. Superdelegates, unique to the Democratic Party, are party elites who vote as they please. They are not bound to represent voters. In a nutshell, they make up 712 unpledged delegates, or 15 percent of the vote (30 percent of the vote needed to win the nomination).
So-called superdelegates, (the official term is "unpledged" delegates) include the Democratic members of Congress (U.S. House and Senate), Democratic National Committee men and women, VIP party members and sitting Democratic governors, such as Gov. Kate Brown in Oregon. Superdelegates are allowed to vote for the candidate of their choice and thus do not represent the popular vote. The 712 total superdelegates in the Democratic Party could, in theory, support any candidate; however, the vast majority this year side with Clinton, who has already claimed two-thirds of all of the Democratic superdelegates. Clinton, in this election, is sweeping the superdelegate race. By the end of March, she had claimed 469 superdelegates and Sanders had 31. Ahead of the Oregon primary, she has commitments and endorsements from six of the state’s 13 superdelegates. It’s not at all reassuring that the system is fair when the Democratic National Committee Chair, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, comes out and says in an interview with CNN that superdelegates exist “To make sure that party leaders and elected officials don’t have to be in a position where they are running against grassroots activists.” Though younger voters prefer Sanders to Clinton anywhere from 75-22 percent (Politico poll) to 60-40 percent (Harvard poll), as the primaries have unfurled, Sanders’ campaign supporters have found the delegate system to be a rude awakening to party play. Several petitions have been launched signed by hundreds of thousands of voters asking superdelegates to align with voters, not party elites. Primary elections began in January and by the end of March, Clinton had 1,712 delegates, including 469 superdelegates and Sanders had 1,011, of which 31 were
superdelegates. Thus, 93.8 percent of superdelegates in primaries held before April sided with Clinton. Although Sanders has out-polled Clinton among millennial voters since before the primaries began, unless he wins the popular vote by a large margin, it will be difficult to bridge the gulf caused by the superdelegates. On the Republican side, going into April, Trump leads, but is not guaranteed to win the 50 percent of delegates needed to secure the nomination. At the end of March, he had 736 delegates and Sen. Ted Cruz from Texas had 463. The Republican race is divided among three remaining candidates. Now that Sen. Rubio has dropped out of the race, after losing his home state of Florida on March 15, the three contenders remaining are Trump, followed by Cruz, trailed by Ohio’s Gov. John Kasich. The Republicans learned from 2012 that a drawn out primary replete with attack ads works against its nominee in the big race, but the shorter primary calendar hasn’t worked as expected. There is a fair degree of delegate math funny business on the Republican side as well, with states such as Texas concocting complex delegate allocation systems. Oregon has a total of 28 Republican delegates, (10 at-large, 15 congressional district delegates and three party leaders). The state with the next primary date is Wyoming on April 9. In May, Indiana, Nebraska, West Virginia, Kentucky, Oregon and Washington will hold primaries. In June, California, Montana, New Jersey, New Mexico, North Dakota, South Dakota, Puerto Rico, Virgin Islands and the District of Columbia will vote. In Oregon, the last day to register by mail to vote in the presidential primary election is April 26. Voter registration can be accomplished by mail or online. SW
he federal Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) will be providing approximately $8.4 million in funding to Oregon for the Maternal, Infant, and Early Childhood Home Visiting Program. The Federal Home Visiting Program involves voluntary, home visiting services to women during pregnancy, and to parents with young children. Home visiting is a voluntary prevention strategy with a mission to support pregnant mothers and new parents to promote infant and child health, prevent child abuse and neglect, and improve school readiness. Most services are delivered by trained nurses, social workers or child development specialists. The Federal Home Visiting Program serves nearly 40 percent of U.S. counties and more than 2.3 million home visits have been conducted, serving parents and children in all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and five territories. Close to 80 percent of families participating have household incomes at or below federal poverty levels.
Hearing for Tumalo Irrigation District
A
hearing will be held later in April regarding a new code enforcement complaint against Tumalo Irrigation District (TID). This is regarding large scale, unpermitted excavation and removal of material conducted for several weeks during this winter deer migration season. Previously, similar activities were shut down by regulatory authorities. A 1988 deed restriction requires the land be managed for the benefit of wildlife. The Community Development Department is tasked to review whether this activity, in the Winter Deer Range, was illegal and what amount of penalty, if any, to assess against TID. This comes on the heels of a written decision earlier this year against TID by Deschutes County Hearings Officer Karen Green. That decision was regarding unpermitted development of recreational use of a reservoir for water skiing and wakeboarding on subject property zoned Rural Residential and within the Wildlife Area Combining Zone.

The Ochoco Summit Trail proposal By Brian Jennings
F
ew things stir more controversy than proposing a new trail system for off-highway vehicle (OHV) travel in a national forest. The proposed 130-mile Summit Trail in the 850,000-acre Ochoco National Forest, an hour’s drive east of Bend, is one such proposal that has met mixed response. The arguments for and against the proposed trail for OHV use are coming to a head with a “record of decision” by the Forest Service expected later this year. OHVs include quads, motorbikes, side-by-sides and Jeeps.
Arguments: Pro & Con
L
arry Ulrich is president of the Ochoco Trail Riders, an OHV club that favors the proposed Summit Trail. “There’s only one trail in the Ochocos, the Green Mountain trail, which is only eight miles long,” he says. “Since travel management began, you can’t ride cross-country anymore. There used to be a lot of roads on which you could ride that have been closed.” He maintains that if travel management dictates road closures, the U.S. Forest Service needs to establish a trail system for OHV riders.
Wild says there is no need for an additional trail system in the Ochocos. Oregon Wild is working to protect the state’s many backcountry areas and would like to see a large National Recreation Area with additional wilderness areas to protect the region’s sensitive habitat, including old growth Ponderosa stands and hundreds of species of plants. The proposal has been met with strong opposition by Prineville area residents, including county
Ulrich says the mixed use roads are too restrictive to OHV riders in the Ochocos because the Forest Service has closed many connecting roads, making it difficult for riders to travel longer distances without having to trailer their vehicles. A trail system would connect the roads for a better OHV experience, he says.
Habitat Damage
“Rewarding a user group that continues to break the rules with an additional playground doesn’t seem like the appropriate option.”
Patrick Lair, the public affairs officer for the Ochoco National Forest, says “Off-highway vehicles are a legal and valid use on federal lands as long as they’re used in a legal and appropriate way.” Prior to the Travel Management Rule of 2005 there were few places OHV users couldn’t ride except for wilderness areas where no motorized travel is allowed. “Our goal is to manage motorized recreation in a way that’s sustainable, responsible to our resources, and fair to the public,” Lair says, adding that many people enjoy recreating on OHVs. Travel management forced the Forest Service to restrict OHV travel to mixed-use roads currently shared by cars and trucks. Sarah Cuddy of the conservation organization Oregon
- Sarah Cuddy, Oregon Wild commissioners concerned about federal government over-reach. Cuddy notes that there are more than 9,000 miles of mixed-use, open roads available in the Ochoco and the Deschutes National Forests for OHV use. “OHV users have plenty of access in the Ochocos and throughout Central Oregon without this additional trail system,” she says.
system.”
The Forest Service and Ochoco Trail Riders concur that because there is no formal trail system in the Ochocos, riders sometime leave designated roads and travel illegally cross country, damaging habitat. There are 700 miles of currently illegal trails acknowledged within the proposed Ochoco Summit Trail System Project’s Final Environmental Impact Statement, according to Cuddy. “Illegal OHV trails and abuse are rampant throughout the forest, she says. “This illegal activity warrants enforcement of existing trails, not building an additional trail
Lair doesn’t disagree. “There have been motorized vehicle users driving both legal and non-street legal vehicles, which have negatively impacted resources,” he explains. The Forest Service receives complaints from the public about resource damage caused by OHVs tearing up meadows or drainages with user-created routes, he says.

Lair says that a formal trail system would help minimize illegal travel and habitat damage. “The Forest Service believes that providing OHV recreationists a sustainable and enjoyable system to ride will help to alleviate these problems because riders won’t need to create their own opportunities, and law enforcement officials will have authorized routes to redirect them to,” he says. The Ochoco National Forest and Crooked River National Grasslands have only one law enforcement officer, making enforcement an issue. “Rewarding a user group that continues to break the rules with an additional playground doesn’t seem like the appropriate option,” says Cuddy.
The Hunting & Fishing Perspective The Forest Service’s Starkey Experimental Research Station near La Grande shows motorized travel’s negative impact on elk migration. In 2014, Oregon Department of Fish & Wildlife biologist Greg Jackle appeared at a meeting on the Summit Trail and stated there is a direct correlation between road densities and disturbances to elk populations, specifically in the Ochoco management unit. “The lower the miles of road density, he says, generally the better it is for elk. The higher that number, you won’t see elk using the area.” Jackle adds that if the Summit Trail is built, elk will avoid the area for a longer duration and seek refuge on private land, where hunters are often barred from hunting by owners. Ranchers also complain of crop damage by elk. Jackle also disagrees with the Forest Service’s contention that building the trail will result in less illegal off-road use. “There are many roads that are closed on paper, but being driven on with very little law enforcement,” he says. “I have little faith that the Forest Service will be able to curtail illegal operation and creation of illegal trails outside of the authorized area.” The national forest has been a popular elk hunting destination for generations of Oregonians. Richard Nelson of the Bend Chapter of the Oregon Hunters Association says there’s “no question” that illegal OHV cross country travel drives elk away from the forest and points to one popular hunting unit—unit 37—as an example. In the 1990s, he says, hunters could get up to 2,000 tags to hunt elk there. Today, he says that number has dwindled to around 440. He blames road densities and illegal OHV travel for that trend.

tality rates. “Further population sampling by ODFW biologists from the late 1990s to 2012 have documented declines of redband trout populations in streams of up to three to five fold,” she states. “Watersheds that have OHV use have generally higher percentages of sand and fine sediments in streams, all of which are characteristics of degraded stream quality.”
“We have an opportunity with the Ochocos to create a proactive and thoughtful recreation plan, or we can put OHV trails through prime elk habitat and wonder later what went wrong.” - Sarah Cuddy, Oregon Wild Retired ODFW fish biologist Amy Stuart says if the Summit Trail is built, there will be severe consequences to native redband trout. Stuart has filed a 42-page objection to the trail system. She was the Ochoco district biologist from 1990 to 1997. “Adding this proposed OHV trail will further compromise native redband trout habitat and populations that are already at risk.” Stuart says the OHV system would change runoff patterns, increase sediment smothering fish eggs and lead to higher mor-
The Future Crook County, where much of the national forest is located, is the second fastest growing county in the state, second only to Deschutes County. Census forecasts by Portland State University indicate that Central’s Oregon’s populations will more than double in the next 50 years, creating more pressure on public lands. The forest
is at a crossroads. “We have an opportunity with the Ochocos to create a proactive and thoughtful recreation plan,” says Cuddy, “or we can put OHV trails through prime elk habitat and wonder later what went wrong.” Nelson, with the Oregon Hunters Association, thinks it likely that OHV riders will use the Ochoco Summit Trail proposal as justification to continue expansion in other areas. “OHV users are never going to be satisfied. The Summit Trail would be a foot in the door for more expansion,” he says. The Summit Trail proposal is now in the hands of the U.S. Forest Service, which began developing the project in 2009. In 2014 the Forest Service issued a Final Environmental Impact Statement and a Draft Record of Decision, which were withdrawn following a forest fire. The most recent proposal includes 130 miles for OHV Class I, II, and III off-highway vehicles, with a season of June 1 to Sept. 30, due to the trail location, weather, wildlife and hunting activity. The Forest Service says that it has worked for years to prevent and repair damage caused by OHV use on unplanned and unauthorized routes. However, because the Ochoco National Forest does not have an official trail system, it cannot apply for many OHV-related grants. With an OHV trail system in place, the Forest could apply for grants to help maintain the trails and enforce proper use. A decision will be made public soon. SW

eat Lab Radio is a show unlike any other in Central Oregon. Host Shane Thomas (DJ Royal Louis) and crew bring the best of electronic music to 92.9 FM every Thursday night from 9:30-11 p.m. Over the last couple of years, Beat Lab has branched out to promoting and spinning live sets, as well as bringing in acts from around the country. April 9 finds Beat Lab presenting Baht and Moniker (out of Knoxville) at The Capitol, bringing a unique style of bass music to Bend. The Source Weekly interviewed Shane Thomas about the future of Beat Lab and music in general. Source Weekly: Tell me about the genesis of Beat Lab. Shane Thomas: Beat Lab started in 2013 after the weed store I work for, Bloom Well, reached out to Bend Radio Group about doing radio advertising. Through those conversations they got on the topic of having what they call an EDM show. We more or less took the idea and ran with it, but we don’t really play that. They wanted a little bit more mainstream kind of stuff, but we kind of just took the opportunity and did what we do. SW: So how did the show properly start? ST: It started out just me doing the radio show and my friends that were all DJs and creative types thought it was a cool idea and I eventually had them come in to help me out. It kind of turned into this collective of beat makers and DJs and artists that make Beat Lab Radio what it is. SW: What inspired you into building it into a collective? ST: It’s inspired by a lot of independent collectives that are out there right now
like STYLSS, Saturate Records, Hebinomichi and Daruma. There’s tons of independent music collectives out there on the Internet and in the world doing really dope things and our goal is to bring that sound and that vibe to Central Oregon. We all live here and are going to be here for a minute and we want to bring music here that we like and enjoy. SW: What is your background in Bend? ST: I grew up here, went to high school and all that. I played a lot of rock music, a lot of heavy and experimental music, mostly guitar and bass, that sort of thing. I played in a band called Empty Space Orchestra for about eight years. We worked really hard, toured a bunch and made some albums. When that fell apart due to us, more or less, not getting along with each other anymore, I started going to more bass music festivals. SW: And that was when electronic music gripped you? ST: My friend Chris Lohrey took me to one of my first all electronic music festivals. I listened to a bunch of music and found a lot of belonging and found my scene, I suppose. Electronic music lets me be more self-reliant in my pursuits. I don’t have to worry about scheduling band practice or working around people’s schedules or girlfriends. I can just do what I want, on my time. I can book shows on my own and book my friends here, through Beat Lab. SW: So what are you wanting to achieve through Beat Lab? ST: We want to bring Future Music to Bend, Oregon, and cultivate a scene for that here and a following. Matt Wax,
Jordan Welter, who goes by the name Welterweight, DJ Lonely Stacks, N. Spekktor - she does all of our art - we just want to bring forward thinking music to Bend, which hasn’t been super prevalent. SW: How has Beat Lab grown since you started? ST: It’s grown a lot. I think the biggest point of reference is that people have started coming out to our shows. Two years ago we started, mainly at Dojo, playing free shows and it was usually packed and everyone had a good time. Now we’re in a place where we can charge a cover and afford pay guarantees for bigger acts to come in and spread the love around while bringing a more diverse sound to Bend. When we started we were just doing a lot of mixes, so on the Internet it looked like we were getting a ton of traffic, but the formula of putting out mixes from other people brings their independent followings from across the world and helped us grow. SW: How much growth are we talking about? ST: We’re averaging 6,000 Sound Cloud plays a week which is pretty huge. I’ve never had anything be that popular on the Internet before. We’re also getting hit up to play shows in other places, like Matt is playing What The Festival and we have some Portland shows. We’re just trying to raise the bar a little bit. SW
Baht and Moniker Saturday, April 9, 9 p.m. The Capitol, 190 NW Oregon Ave., Bend $8-$10
oyote Willow is a duo made up of classically trained Kat Hilst and barroom practiced Tim Coffey. This group’s style was once (and accurately) described by a fan as “progressive acoustic with Americana influence.” Although hard to explain, the music is easy to understand. If the name sounds familiar, that’s because it probably is. The EP [extended play recording], “Falling to Home,” was thoughtfully put together by the pair. They wanted to give the world a taste of some of their best music, so song selection for the EP was key. “These songs were a good representation of us…we really wanted [the music] to attract people,” says Coffey. The music scene in Bend, they agreed, is not only the most active that they have seen, but the most supportive. “We are really grateful to be able to play music here,” says Hilst. After listening to her, it becomes very apparent that Hilst has been classically trained. Her hands and fingers on stringed instruments, such as the cello, seem to be an extension of her own body. Her voice personifies a loose stroll through a meadow. Music and song by Hilst can be set as an elegant conversational piece, something to ease the mind and soften a day. Coffey, on the other hand, like his name, provides the jolt to attention. Many barroom sessions behind this baritone have created a voice and heart to match. If bets were to be made, he is the coyote, and she the willow. This musical and romantic pair performs live shows regularly, with absolutely no intention of slowing down. Just in the next couple of weeks Coyote Willow will perform at Portello’s on April 9, The Blacksmith Restaurant on April 15, Dudley’s on April 16, and Chow on April 17. SW

had and Rachel Hamar have been playing music as long as they can remember. They are not only the singers and songwriters behind Cloverdayle, they are also an insanely happy couple. Describing their music as “Northwest Country,” this duo is probably the textbook definition of that. Both husband and wife are native Oregonians. Chad Hamar is from the Portland area and Rachel Hamar grew up right here in Bend.

Cloverdayle is looking forward to the upcoming show and playing at the VTP. “We are very excited,” says Rachel Hamar, “to be able to play in a more intimate setting. That’s something we love to be able to do.” It will be a great opportunity for them to showcase some of their acoustic work, they say, describing how being that close to the fans is something they always enjoy. This pair holds their fans so near and dear to their hearts that they even allowed their following to pick out their latest celebrated single. Some artists can say that they give the fans what they want, but Colverdayle can boast of actually following through. Performing for an audience is something they enjoy quite a bit; at live shows these two discuss how much having a positive experience can be one
of the best experiences there is. “When the audience is giving us their energy, that’s the ultimate,” says Chad Hamar. Chad and Rachel Hamar have been playing music since they were both teens, but the birth of Cloverdayle wasn’t until 2008. A date with destiny became a career-altering decision. They decided to enter a radio contest for artists interested in opening for Kenny Chesney, just after performing their first show. They made it to the top ten, then to the final four. A battle of the bands took place, and in what seemed like overnight, they played their second show ever: Cloverdayle opened for Kenny Chesney. Being an opener for such a famous musician is quite an honor; however, staying an opening act wasn’t their final goal. Being a professional music duo, being able to tour and play music for a living continues to be their dream. To Cloverdayle, music has a very special place in the heart. Chad Hamar describes music to be a powerful method of escape, while Rachel Hamar describes it as a connection to people. The honest, yet distinct connection of each to the energy of the music is something many identify with, meaning listeners stay interested and Cloverdayle’s dreams continue to grow.

CRAFT Bend: Bringing Art to Life CRAFT Bend is a local nonprofit that teaches kids the importance of art in everyday life. Recently, through a grant from the Environmental Center of Central Oregon and materials donated by Habitat ReStore, CRAFT Bend was able to bring art to life for Juniper Elementary fourth and fifth graders through a series of collaborative art projects. An art exhibit of the students’ work and a video about the project will be featured at the Environmental Center on Saturday, April 23, as part of the Earth Day festivities. “We’re passionate about creative reuse and wanted a fun way to teach kids about the environment and community engagement at the same time,” says CRAFT Bend founder Rowena Meyer-Bandy. The Bringing Art to Life Project includes classroom instruction about environmental sustainability and the three Rs: reduce, reuse and recycle.

eightlessness used to be reserved for space travel, but that is no longer the case. Float Central in Bend is under new management by an enthusiastic and absurdly charismatic floater named Seth Biersner, age 40, occupation unknown—he’s still trying to figure that out. What has been decided, however, are his intentions when it comes to educating the public on the importance of floating and self-reflection. Biersner is not only the owner, he is also an avid floater himself, crediting his better night’s sleep and positive emotional shifts to the unmatched power of floating. “I believe that floating is a powerful way to reset your nervous system as your body gets a chance to fully surrender and rest, meditate, stretch and sleep,” says Biersner. For those who are a bit lost as to what “floating” is, let’s clear that up now. Essentially, a person enters an enclosed tomb-like box that is devoid of sound or light. The water is mixed with enough
salt to allow a person to be submerged in water while still being able to float. The temperature is meant to match a person’s body temperature, allowing for the maximum nothingness sensation. To break it all down: The body is suspended in water with no outside stimulus, allowing the person to be not only completely weightless, but also to have no outside distractions. The only thing that can be heard is breathing and any water shifting during movement. Let’s address the elephant drowning in the room: It can seem scary to some. Biersner makes it a point to inform those who may be put off by the physicality of the experience, to assure that the person is in total and complete control the whole time. There is an optional light that can be used inside the tank, the door does not need to be closed, and the water isn’t filled to the top. “I want people not to be shy about voicing their concerns,” says Biersner. He aims for the experience to be, first and foremost, a comfortable situation.
After all, it is meant to allow the mind and body to relax in a way that is rarely achievable by any other method. Once that is achieved, Biersner says that the physical sensation of floating comes from when body, water and air equalize. “You are conscious, but you feel absolutely nothing,” he says. Floating can create intense dreams and a full spectrum of emotions, he says. He goes on to describe that although he can recall the intense emotions or feelings of bliss, he cannot recall what actually took place during the float. From the first experience, floating can be wonderful and powerful, but practice only makes things better. Floating helps to bring together mind, body and soul, and much like meditating, it takes time to get comfortable enough with oneself, the experience and the surroundings. SW Float Central 375 NE Franklin Ave., Bend For more information visit: www.floatcentralbend.com
The students created art postcards, trading cards and wood collages, all using reclaimed art materials to highlight the theme of kindness. These original pieces of artwork will be distributed as acts of kindness in the community. The postcards will be delivered to hospital patients and nursing home residents. The trading cards will be circulated among the students at school and the wood collages will be used as public art installations. “These students are extremely excited to be sharing their art with the community so we want to invite everyone to come out and support the amazing work they’ve done,” says Meyer-Bandy. “It’s been a wonderful experience working with Juniper Elementary. We look forward to taking this project into more Central Oregon schools in the future,” she added. CRAFT Bend provides events, classes, and workshops for all ages and affordable access to creative reuse art materials. SW

Lunch Break on Bond
J.Dub opens its doors just in time for spring By Angela Moore 29 VOLUME 20 ISSUE 14 / April 7, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY
From left: Owner Jon Weber’s smile is known around town and for good reason; locals enjoying drinks with friends; one option for the Lunch Break Special. Photos by Kyla Tarbet.
A
new eatery has opened up on Bond Street in downtown Bend. Owner Jon Weber (J.W., hence, J. Dub) is better known around town for his friendly bar skills and charming smile, having spent 17 years at the Pine Tavern and six years at 10 Barrel. It is safe to say that Weber has created many personal relationships with both long-standing patrons and fellow business owners, and possesses the abundant people skills required to succeed. With a lot of options for places to eat downtown, Weber wanted to tap into the under-catered-to lunch crowd. J. Dub features the main dining room, a bar, an in-between area to handle the spillover and an outside spot that is dog friendly, a big plus for many. A more complex identity will come with time, but for now Weber is simply focusing on the one
avenue he wants to be known for: A great lunchtime spot. Aside from the number of people flowing through the most popular streets in Bend for entertainment by night, there are just as many people who work in the downtown area by day. Bagging a lunch every day gets old, and it can be easy to spend too much dining out. Weber knows this and wants to provide all the hardworking folks a new option to fill their bellies without completely draining their wallets. The Lunch Break Special is the name to order by, and the meals offered are classic for the afternoon. Between 10:30 a.m. until 3 p.m. for $9, anyone can waltz, shimmy or saunter in to enjoy a PBR, cheeseburger, and fries. If something lighter is the goal, then a glass of house wine, soup and a salad might be the better choice. Of course, the beverages

He also wants to include little ones in the mix by providing a kids' menu that would please the palettes of even the pickiest of the litter. Providing the option of fries or carrots, he strives to satisfy the parents, too. Another standout on the menu is the soft-shell crab. When asked about the more unusual protein option, Weber answers that, “soft-shell crab is an underrated, but wanted seafood option.” He goes on to explain that for those who do not eat landlocked animals, this is a great

eschutes Brewery’s decision to open an $85 million second brewing facility in Roanoke, Virginia (announced on March 22) was not something Bend’s most well-known beermaker decided upon lightly. The seventh-largest craft brewery in America has spent much of the past couple of years hunting for a location to expand into, gauging candidate sites in places like Texas, Minnesota, the Carolinas, and even a 126-year-old former brewery building in Memphis, Tennessee. The reason is simple enough: Deschutes, which currently distributes beer in 28 states, wants to expand its range to cover the Eastern United States. In order to accomplish this, building a new brewery is a lot cheaper than trucking bottles all the way from Bend to Florida. (Many large Western craft breweries, including Stone, Sierra Nevada and Oskar Blues, have already built second locations in the East.) The decision to go with Roanoke, however, caught some industry observers by surprise. By the end of last year, Deschutes had narrowed its choice down to three possible locations: Roanoke; Charlottesville, Virginia; and Asheville,
North Carolina. All are medium-sized regional cities near the interstate system (important for a brewery Deschutes’ size), all are outdoorsy and picturesque, and Asheville in particular is a brewery-laden beer mecca outclassed perhaps only by Bend. What did it come down to? The benefits, basically. Virginia governor Terry McAuliffe approved a $3 million grant to help Roanoke land the project, which will be located in a business park overlooking nearby Tinker Creek on the eastern edge of town. That wasn’t on the table in Asheville, and Charlottesville bowed out after its city government declined to rezone the land Deschutes needed. Thus, Roanoke—historically a railroad-centric town, trying to diversify its economy—is now Deschutes’ second home out East. The facility won’t open for a while (the opening’s slated for 2021), but when it does, it may join Lagunitas and New Belgium in the elite club of craft breweries that produce over a million barrels per year.

SCREEN
Drone Warfare Sets Stage for Magnificent Morality Tale “Eye in the Sky” is an intense thriller for adults
31 VOLUME 20 ISSUE 14 / April 7, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY
By Jared Rasic
The wonderful Alan Rickman in his final live-action film role.
“E
ye in the Sky” is a film of ideas. Big ones that will create magnificent discussions and possible arguments with friends and lovers. This time of the year is sometimes seen as the dumping ground for movies that studios don’t think will generate much of a profit, but it’s almost certain that if this was released around November/December, there would be some serious awards talk. One thing that will definitely be notable is that, according to IMDB, this will be the last film role for the absolutely unforgettable Alan Rickman, of “Die Hard” and “Harry Potter” fame, after his awfully depressing death in January. He finished recording his vocal performance as The Blue Caterpillar in “Alice Through the Looking Glass,” so at least we will have his delightfully droll voice in
our lives one more time. Rickman is just one small part of this ensemble piece which tells the story of a possible drone strike and all the things that might come together to make it happen. The always excellent Helen Mirren plays Colonel Katherine Powell, a part of the British military forces searching for certain high-level terrorists in Nairobi, Kenya. In Nevada, U.S. Air Force pilot Steve Watts (Aaron Paul) is controlling the drone giving Britain its aerial surveillance of the terrorist safe house. Meanwhile, the African government has spies around the terrorist compound, doing incredibly dangerous field work to lay eyes on its specific target. All of this work is then routed through Whitehall, where the top brass (including a stoic Rickman) figure out the political ramifications
of firing a hellfire missile through the terrorists’ roof. The problem is that a young girl is selling bread a few feet from the house and there is a good chance she would be killed in the blast. Almost the entire running time of the film is spent with these people as they try to weigh the benefits of killing the terrorists (who have a few recruits with suicide vests inside) with the horror of murdering a little girl just trying to live her life. These conversations are potently intense, creating a wonderful balance of tension and character work. None of these characters are presented as bloodthirsty war mongers.

www.solalchemy.com Tom Hiddleston and Elizabeth Olsen make beautiful music together.
“I Saw the Light” tells the story of Hank Williams. Not the right-wing second one or the gutter punk third one, but the original, hillbilly country music icon (and winner of a posthumous 2010 Pulitzer Prize). The really complicated thing about making a film based on someone’s life is deciding which part to tell. Should the writer try and cram in as many years as possible, or focus on something specific, such as the path to fame or a great love? “I Saw the Light,” concentrates on a very specific period of years, AND a great love...neither to much success. Writer-director Marc Abraham chose to write about Williams’ life between 1943 to 1949, which were the years Williams was most successful in his career right up until his death at age 29. In 1943, Williams met and married Audrey Sheppard. This is also where the film starts, making its most crucial misstep, crippling the entire story in one massive choice. The opening scene of the film is the couple’s marriage in a Texaco station in Alabama during a rainstorm. The scene is beautifully shot, but signals that we will never know what brought these two together or why they spend any time at all with each other. Even though Tom Hiddleston and Elizabeth Olsen are both fantastic as Hank and Audrey, their marriage is almost never at peace, with their fights portrayed in a way that paints both in a very unflattering light. Consequently, as almost the entire film focuses on a relationship built on zero context, a sense of who they actually were to each other is missing. Hank’s cheating heart led him to multiple women and groupies, plus his addiction to drugs and alcohol made him a terrible husband and father. Audrey’s own dreams of being a recording artist
made her jealous toward Hank and detached from her young son. What we have here is one of those biopics that decidedly ignores lionizing its subject, focusing on the demons and shadows of the Williams family instead. The problem with this approach is that the script doesn’t let the audience see Williams as an artist, either. There is a moment late in the film where Williams is being interviewed and he talks about all the letters he receives from people sharing their troubles. These people sense a kindred spirit in Williams, the man who wrote, “I’m So Lonesome, I Could Cry.” Yet we never see the ruin taking root in his soul or the loneliness and depression that drove him to write some of his best lyrics. Every scene stays above surface level, content to give the audience shallow highlights. Hiddleston nails the aw-shucks persona of Williams perfectly, but he is never given a chance to find what made the man tick. He has breathed life into Williams, but not shown us how he thinks. Olsen also digs in as deep as she can as Audrey, but when Williams and Audrey split, so does the film, absolutely abandoning the character in the final 30 minutes. It is very respectful to paint a dead celebrity’s life in colors that aren’t always flattering, because then they become human to an entire culture that never knew them as a person. With “I Saw the Light” the colors are dull and muted and although a whole new generation might learn about what he did, people certainly won’t know who he really was, not from this.

FILM SHORTS By Jared Rasic
GOD’S NOT DEAD 2: A high school
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? Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX
teacher wants to discuss Jesus in the classroom and the administration refuses. This is a sequel to “God’s Not Dead,” the 2014 faith-based production. Former TV teen star Melissa Joan Hart plays Grace Wellesley and Robin Givens is cast as Principal Kinney. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX
45 YEARS: A beautiful portrait of a married 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
ALLEGIANT: The third (of four) films based on the Divergent series of young adult books. Tris and Four and her people figured out that there is more beyond the fence than they thought, so this installment follows their first exploration of the larger world beyond. The second Divergent film was so terrible, it will be interesting to see if anyone other than book fans turn up for this one. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX
BATMAN V SUPERMAN: DAWN OF JUSTICE: Batman and Superman live their lives and get in a fight and the n team up with Wonder Woman to take out a monster. That’s pretty much it, but if the interest is still there for this 151-minute cinematic equivalent of the air getting let out of a balloon really slowly, then go for it. Even fans of the characters will not be appeased by this ridiculous mess of a movie. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX
THE BRONZE: This one was picked up a few years ago at Sundance, but wasn’t released until now, which isn’t a good sign. The film follows a horrific human being (Melissa Rauch) who was a former Bronze medalist in the Olympics. She has been cashing in on her celebrity in her hometown for years, until she is asked to train a young gymnast who might possibly steal her glory. Word on this flick is not good at all. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX DEADPOOL: Everyone’s favorite Merc with a Mouth makes the transition to his first solo big screen outing. We last saw the character Deadpool in “X-Men Origins: Wolverine,” one of the most disastrous superhero films of all time. This new flick should not only make everyone forget about how dumb Deadpool was in the past, but create the first R-Rated superhero franchise since “Blade.” Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX
EYE IN THE SKY: This could end up being the final completed film performance of the great Alan Rickman. This tells the story of a drone pilot and the military and government controllers who set him down a path he doesn’t want to be on. With actors Helen Mirren, Rickman, Aaron Paul and Jeremy Northam, expect “Eye in the Sky” to be a taut, cerebral thriller along the lines of Deterrence and other ethical war movies. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX
I SAW THE LIGHT: Obscenely talented British actor Tom Hiddleston plays Hank Williams the First in a standard Hollywood biopic. The film is mostly focused on his first marriage and his rise to fame, but it doesn’t develop either story well enough to become a fascinating portrait of the man. The film only scratches the surface of the life of this very complicated man. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

MIRACLES FROM HEAVEN: Jennifer Garner and Martin Henderson play a married couple whose daughter has an illness no doctors can identify. When the little girl falls and hits her head, her illness goes away. Loosely based on a true story, this follows the style of book where someone who dies ends up speaking to someone in heaven.

Also, they have another wedding to attend and this one promises to be bigger, fatter and Greeker than ever. 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. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX RAMS: An Icelandic drama about two brothers who must reconcile their differences in order to save their ancestral sheep flock. The brothers live next door to each other, but haven’t spoken in 40 years, so when a disease not only threatens their sheep, but the entire valley they live in, the past will be put aside in order to save their future. 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
ZOOTOPIA: One of the best animated films in years with a genuinely important message. Zootopia is a place where all animals live together side by side, predators and prey, but when some bad stuff goes down, an unlikely duo teams up to find out what happened. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

Mountain Bikers Seek Changes to 1964 Wilderness Act
GO HERE By Brian Jennings

Oregon’s Spectacular Desert
Photo by Jim Sanco
On April 26, the Oregon Natural Desert Association presents its final event in the High Desert Speakers Series in Bend with a discussion of many of the high desert’s most spectacular places.
Mountain bikers and conservationists debate the merits of opening more trails.
T
hus far, 2016 has been a controversial year for federal public lands, especially in Oregon where the federal government manages more than 50 percent of the state’s geographic area. First, there was the armed occupation of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge south of Burns. Then, Malheur County residents overwhelmingly voted against creating a possible National Monument in the Owyhee Canyonlands area in a symbolic, non-binding vote, sending a message that they don’t want more of their county’s lands managed by the federal government. Now, a group representing mountain bikers—the Sustainable Trails Coalition— wants to change the 1964 Wilderness Act to allow mountain bikes into these secluded areas where no motorized or mechanized travel is allowed. According to the organization’s website, “Outdated rules are keeping human-powered travelers from visiting some of America’s best public lands, notably its Wilderness areas and National Scenic Trails.” The definition of human-powered includes mountain bikes. Erik Fernandez is wilderness coordinator for Oregon Wild, a leading statewide conservation organization. He feels that the Sustainable Trails proposal represents only a small group of mountain bikers with an extreme view. “I think a lot of mountain bikers are conservationists and want to work to find the right balance for wilderness protection and mountain bike access.”
Oregon Wild and mountain bike organizations have worked in partnership to find that balance in OW’s National Recreation proposal in the Ochoco National Forest, he says. The proposal creates mountain biking opportunities while protecting new wilderness proposals where bikes would not be allowed. “Going back to try to change the Wilderness Act is not going to bring anyone together,” says Fernandez. It would be a controversial fight that no one would win.” Wilderness designations are considered the gold standard of conservation protection. Oregon Wild and other conservation groups fear mountain bikes would be destructive to them. “It’s really about balance. Bikes are great in most places, but there are a few places on the landscape where they aren’t appropriate.” Central Oregon is considered by many to be Oregon’s unofficial capital for mountain biking, boasting hundreds of miles of formal trails on federal lands outside of any wilderness areas. Woody Starr is a well-known mountain biker and the founder and former owner of Cog Wild Mountain Bike Tours, a company in Central Oregon. He believes in human-powered travel including bikes, horses, and hiking, but not motorized travel in wilderness areas. Emphasizing that he speaks as an individual and not on behalf of local mountain bike organizations, he told the Source Weekly, “I don’t think the Sustainable Trails Coalition proposal is fringe at all. They seem to have some pretty reasonable arguments.”
When asked if he favors allowing mountain bikes in wilderness areas, Starr says that in some cases there may be merit to the proposal, but he adds, “I don’t think every wilderness trail should be open to mountain bikes.” Starr also sees merit in the Sustainable Trails proposal that would allow federal management agencies to determine on a case-by-case basis whether certain wilderness trails could be compatible with mountain bikes. Locally, he suggests the Corral Lakes trail in the Three Sisters Wilderness near Cultus Lake could be opened to mountain bikes. He says that the trail has largely returned to nature for lack of use and lack of money to maintain it, suggesting that mountain bikers could open and maintain it for all to use. “With the evolution of technology and the way things are spinning, I think an argument can be made that some trails might benefit from mountain bike use being allowed on them,” he says. Managing public lands in a way that balances recreational use with the purpose of wilderness designations will require great consideration. For Oregon Wild’s Fernandez, modifying the Wilderness Act is a non-starter. “One of the big concerns with opening up the Wilderness Act to changes is that the current anti-environment Congress would make a host of other changes, likely creating loopholes large enough to drive log trucks through. To think otherwise is politically naïve,” he says. SW
ONDA’s Gena Goodman-Campbell will team up with the Great Old Broads for Wilderness for this 90-minute discussion at Bend’s Old Stone Church beginning at 7 p.m. Goodman-Campbell was previously named one of 1,000 Friends of Oregon’s 35 Innovators Under 35. She became the Badlands Wilderness Coordinator in 2007, working for ONDA to lead the effort to protect 30,000 acres of badlands. The Badlands Wilderness Act, sponsored by Sen. Ron Wyden, was signed into law in 2009. Today, she focuses her time with ONDA protecting Central Oregon’s desert wilderness. In the lecture on April 26, she will explore from Whychus-Deschutes to Hidden Springs, sharing how to protect these Central Oregon treasures for generations to come.

The Oregon moose population now stands at about 60, up from 30 in 2006.
E
very time I drive over the Ochoco Forest summit I start looking for a moose. The willows along the banks of Marks Creek and quiet switchbacks with the deep forest close by give one the impression of really great moose habitat, and, if that were in the Umatilla or Wallowa-Whitman forest, there would probably be a moose standing in the quiet waters. There is a small number of moose scattered throughout that part of the state. According to Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife (ODFW) biologist Pat Matthews, they seem to be doing OK for themselves. However, like all large mammals in the wild, they do have to put up with predators, and as the small population of wolves begins to grow in that area, the moose will have to be quick. My first encounter with a moose was coming around a curve in Yellowstone National Park; there was a car stopped ahead of me right alongside a moose calf, but what really caught my eye was the huge cow moose with the hair up on her back, chasing a woman who was waving a carrot at it. When one thinks “moose,” one sees an image of those big, formidable black males standing on long legs in a sprawling body of water, mosses dripping from huge antlers spread out over the long, horse-like head. Well, Oregon’s moose can be a little like that, but they’re smaller in stature. These are Shiras moose, the smallest subspecies in North America. Even so, males still tip the scales at 1,000 pounds —mid-sized when compared with a typical 1,500-pound Alaska-Yukon
bull moose. The female Shiras moose can weigh around 700 to 800 pounds. They tend to be dark brown or brownish-black, a color scheme occasionally broken by grayish-white hair on the undersides of their back legs. Moose are not herd animals, such as deer or elk. They wander around somewhat close together, but separated by a half-mile or so. Last count there were about 60 of them in Oregon, scattered across parts of the Umatilla and Wallowa-Whitman national forests, which is up from 30 in 2006. Wildlife biologists, such as Matthews, use words like secretive, solitary and elusive to describe the ungainly looking animals, which (probably) migrated into northeastern Oregon from the Spokane-Pullman region, crossing the wide-open Palouse Prairie into Oregon’s Blue Mountains. Moose have been reported from time to time for years in this corner of Oregon, but biologists say the first recorded sighting was along the Imnaha River in 1960, and it’s known three moose calves were born in northeastern Oregon in 2005. It’s also interesting to note moose numbers began rising about the same time gray wolves started migrating into Oregon from Idaho and reproducing here. Oregon’s Shiras moose population is centered in western Wallowa County, and has also been spotted in the 560-square-mile Eagle Cap Wilderness. On Oregon State Highway 204, drivers may encounter a moose between Elgin and Weston, or on Forest Service Road 62 north of Elgin.
This bit of news comes with a warning. Deer, elk and cows wander across Oregon highways often, and as a result they are sometimes struck and killed. Please keep in mind, Shiras moose— even though smaller than their Yukon cousins — are larger than elk and as such can do considerable damage to a vehicle driving the new Oregon highway speed limit of 65 miles per hour. Speaking of “limit,” there is a limit on the number of deer, elk, black bear, cougar, pronghorn, Rocky Mountain goat, bighorn sheep and Western gray squirrels one can shoot, but there is no hunting season for moose in Oregon. As if having to put up with wolves and speeding motor vehicles wasn’t enough, in 2010 wildlife biologists became aware of a carotid worm parasite problem, which are transmitted to moose by horsefly bites. The parasites travel through the blood vessels to the brain, sometimes triggering poor coordination, blindness and other problems, which is another good reason to drive carefully along the highways in Northeast Oregon. Now, a request: if you’re traveling within or near known moose habitat and spot a moose, and would like to join a growing number of Citizen Scientists, please make a note of your location, stop and take photos if it’s safe to do so, then pass along that information to the ODFW office in your area, or the ODFW Enterprise Field Office, Tel. (541)426-3279. If you see one on the Ochoco summit, call me! Tel. (541)480-3728, but please wait until at least 7:30 a.m.

ADVICE GODDESS
Your boyfriend’s mix-up was the sleep-eating version of texted communication. You ultimately know that, but no sooner did you get that text than your feelings started hammering on you. It’s like they were waiting to do it—like those people in folding chairs with umbrellas lined up outside some conxcert ticket venue. Pound! Pound! Pound! “My watch says 10:31! What the eff ?!” Because fear comes up fast and there’s all this energy behind it, it’s easy to believe it’s telling you something you need to hear—and follow. But it helps to understand what neuroscience has discovered -that emotions are automatic reactions to something in your environment. They rise up (out of a sea of biochemicals) without your doing a thing. (It’s not like you have to nag, “Hey, life-sucking depression, you never visit anymore.”) Rational thought, however, takes work. You have to coax it up and give it an assignment, and then (lazy bum) it right away starts pushing for a nap. It is possible to pull reason into the mix before your emotions drag your boyfriend off for a beating. This takes preplanning— and the use, in the moment, of a technique called “cognitive reappraisal,” which involves reinterpreting your emotion-driven view of a situation in less emotional terms. Basically, you explore the boring alternatives. Say your boyfriend’s slow in texting you back. So…lack of respect (boohoo!)— or lack of phone, because the dodohead dropped it in the toilet again? This isn’t to say your alternate explanation is correct. But the immediate goal of cognitive reappraisal is not judging the truth, the whole truth, blah, blah, blah. Through your considering alternate possibilities, cognitive neuroscientist Jason Buhle and his colleagues find that you divert the action in your brain from the stress and anxiety department (Freakout Central) to the thinky parts—like the prefrontal cortex. This allows reason to put on its Coke-bottle glasses and have a closer look at what’s really going on. This, in turn, will keep you from contributing to the notion many men have that we women
THE MODERN DAY
Amazing Graze
WOMAN
I’ve been married for seven years, and I’m cheating on my husband. I’ve heard that if you’re cheating, it’s because something’s missing in your relationship. But my husband is fantastic. I love him. I just long for something new and different. Help.
—Overreactor Assuming your boyfriend isn’t 11, “do u have any openings?” isn’t a sex question.
WOMEN’S ISSUE
—Torn Marriage vows are annoyingly comprehensive. Take that “Forsaking all others…” thing. Do they really mean “allll others”? Even that hot guy in board shorts in Spin class? There are people who are under the impression that life should be COMPLETELY FUN AND EXCITING AT ALL TIMES. We call them 5-year-olds. The grown-up view acknowledges that the typical day includes a good deal of bummer management and that choices in life require making trade-offs. Marriage, for example, gives you intimacy, security, and tax breaks—with the downside that the nookie tends to lack the zing of boning some hot stranger in the self-help section at Barnes & Noble. To understand how unfair you’re being to your husband, don’t just look at your cheating in sexual terms. You’re doing what neuroeconomists and anthropologists call “free-riding”—sucking up the benefits of a situation while ducking the costs. Meanwhile, if you get cancer and all of your hair falls out and getting to the toilet feels like the third leg of a triathlon, the man carrying you there will for sure be the one you meet for nooners at the motel. As for what’s missing, you have no motivation to heat up your marriage if you’re getting your heat on the side. But a relatively new area of research—embodied cognition—finds that action drives emotion, meaning that if you keep acting loving and passionate, the feelings are likely to follow. You also jazz things up by being surprising and going a little crazy—in good ways. As the country song goes, “Sing like you don’t need the money…dance like nobody’s watchin’”—but have extramarital sex like there’s a private detective across the street with a lens the size of something NASA puts into space.

My boyfriend mistakenly sent me a text meant for somebody else—a real estate agent with my same first name who’s showing him apartments.

Wood Stove Issues in Selling a Home
In one recent transaction, the home was built in 1991, which is after the certification requirement date, so one would expect this would not be an issue. However, the stove ended up being a 1970s model. Another transaction involved a 1950s home that had an uncertified insert and was represented by the sellers
3 beds, 2.5 baths, 2067, 5227 SQ FT Lot, built in 2015
as being certified based on information they received whey they purchased their home. Inspection revealed this woodstove was uncertified as well. In both transactions, the stoves were not the only source of heat, but once a buyer has offered to purchase a home with wood and forced air heat, removing the woodstove can be a deal breaker. In each case, the buyers were ready to walk away from the deal unless the stove was replaced or the seller provided a credit for the cost of replacement.

The solution to both cases ended up being very simple: find a used certified equivalent unit and replace it for about $1500 total. Fortunately, there are certified used wood stoves around that can be installed by chimney sweeps and stores that sell them. When buyers ask for a cash credit from sellers, the number is closer to $4,500, and this causes contention on both sides. Since the seller has to remedy it, it makes more sense to take care of this before placing the home on the market, and a newer, certified wood stove can be a selling point. SW

O
ne of the required seller disclosure checklists most realtors go through when writing up a listing is for wood stoves. Since 1985, a certification sticker from Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) or the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is required to indicate that the wood stove is certified. These stickers are typically on the back of the stove and not always easily accessible, particularly if it is being inspected while in use during the winter. Sellers of homes are responsible for removing uncertified wood stoves at their expense. If there is a non-certified wood stove or insert in a home, it is best to take care of it before putting the home on the market. Removing it alone is not desirable as there will usually be an empty spot with masonry and a pedestal from the removed stove and a hole in the ceiling and buyers will feel like they have been robbed of something they thought they were getting.

ASTROLOGY ARIES (March 21-April 19): French artist Henri
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Taurus-born Kurt Gödel (1906-1978) was among history’s greatest logicians. His mastery of rational thought enabled him to exert a major influence on scientific thinking in the 20th century. Yet he also had an irrational fear of being poisoned, which made him avoid food unless his wife cooked it. One of the morals of his story is that reason and delusion may get all mixed up in the same location. Sound analysis and crazy superstition can get so tangled they’re hard to unravel. The coming week will be an excellent time to meditate on how this phenomenon might be at work in you. You now have an extraordinary power to figure out which is which, and then take steps to banish the crazy, superstitious, fearful stuff. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): For a time, pioneer physicist Albert Einstein served as a professor at the Institute for Advanced Study in Princeton, NJ. On one occasion, a student complained to him, “The questions on this year’s exam are the same as last year’s.” Einstein agreed that they were, then added, “but this year all the answers are different.” I’m seeing a similar situation in your life, Gemini. For you, too, the questions on this year’s final exam are virtually identical to last year’s final exam— and yet every one of the answers has changed. Enjoy the riddle.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): Your personal oracle for the coming weeks is a fable from 2600 years ago. It was originally written by the Greek storyteller Aesop, and later translated by Joseph Jacobs. As the tale begins, a dog has discovered a hunk of raw meat lying on the ground. He’s clenching his treasure in his mouth as he scurries home to enjoy it in peace. On the way, he trots along a wooden plank that crosses a rapidly-flowing stream. Gazing down, he sees his reflection in the water below. What? He imagines it’s another dog with another slab of meat. He tries to snatch away this bonus treat, but in doing so, drops his own meat. It falls into the stream and is whisked away. The moral of the fable: “Beware lest you lose the substance by grasping at the shadow.”
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): “I never get lost because I don’t know where I am going,” said the Japanese poet known as Ikkyu. I stop short of endorsing this perspective for full-time, long-term use, but I think it suits you fine for right now. According to my astrological projections, you can gather the exact lessons you need simply by wandering around playfully, driven by cheerful curiosity about the sparkly sights—and not too concerned with what they mean. P.S. Don’t worry if the map you’re consulting doesn’t seem to match the territory you’re exploring.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): “If literally every action a human can perform was an Olympic sport,” Reddit.com asked its users, “which events would you win medals in?” A man named Hajimotto said his champion-level skill was daydreaming. “I can zone out and fantasize for hours at a time,” he testified. “This is helpful when I am waiting in line.” You Virgos are not typically Olympic-class daydreamers, but I encourage you to increase your skills in the coming weeks. It’ll be a favorable time for your imagination to run wild and free. How exuberantly can you fantasize? Find out!
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): In his book “Strange Medicine,” Nathan Belofsky tells us about unusual healing practices of the past. In ancient
Egypt, for example, the solution for a toothache was to have a dead mouse shoved down one’s throat. If someone had cataracts, the physician might dribble hot broken glass into their eyes. I think these strategies qualify as being antidotes that were worse than the conditions they were supposed to treat. I caution you against getting sucked into “cures” like those in the coming days. The near future will be a favorable time for you to seek healing, but you must be very discerning as you evaluate the healing agents.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): In his poem “The Snowmass Cycle,” Stephen Dunn declares that everyone “should experience the double fire, of what he wants and shouldn’t have.” I foresee a rich opportunity coming up for you to do just that, Scorpio. And yes, I do regard it as rich, even marvelous, despite the fact that it may initially evoke some intense poignance. Be glad for this crisp revelation about a strong longing whose fulfillment would be no damn good for you!
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): “When I look at my life I realize that the mistakes I have made, the things I really regret, were not errors of judgment but failures of feeling.” Writer Jeanette Winterson said that, and I’m passing it on to you at the exact moment you need to hear it. Right now, you are brave enough and strong enough to deal with the possibility that maybe you’re not doing all you can to cultivate maximum emotional intelligence. You are primed to take action and make big changes if you discover that you’re not feeling as much as you can about the important things in your life. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Psychotherapist Jennifer Welwood says that sadness is often at the root of anger. Feelings of loss and disappointment and heartache are the more primary emotions, and rage is a reflexive response to them. But sadness often makes us feel vulnerable, while rage gives us at least the illusion of being strong, and so most of us prefer the latter. But Welwood suggests that tuning in to the sadness almost always leads to a more expansive understanding of your predicament; and it often provides the opportunity for a more profound self-transformation. I invite you to apply these meditations to your own life, Capricorn. The time is right. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): “The causes of human actions are usually immeasurably more complex and varied than our subsequent explanations of them.” Fyodor Dostoyevsky said that in his novel “The Idiot,” and now I’m passing it on to you just in the nick of time. In the coming weeks, it’s especially important for you to not oversimplify your assessments of what motivates people—both those you respect and those you don’t fully trust. For your own sake, you can’t afford to naively assume either the best or the worst about anyone. If you hope to further your own agendas, your nuanced empathy must be turned up all the way. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): “Believing love is work is certainly better than believing it’s effortless, ceaseless bliss,” says author Eric LeMay. That’s advice I hope you’ll keep close at hand in the coming weeks, Pisces. The time will be right for you to exert tremendous effort in behalf of everything you love dearly—to sweat and struggle and strain as you create higher, deeper versions of your most essential relationships. Please remember this, though: The hard labor you engage in should be fueled by your ingenuity and your creative imagination. Play and experiment and enjoy yourself as you sweat and struggle and strain!

Matisse (1869-1954) is regarded as one of the greats, in the same league as Picasso and Kandinsky. Even in his eighties, he was still creating marvels that one critic said seemed “to come from the springtime of the world.” As unique as his work was, he was happy to acknowledge the fact that he thrived on the influence of other artists. And yet he also treasured the primal power of his innocence. He trusted his childlike wonder. “You study, you learn, but you guard the original naiveté,” he said. “It has to be within you, as desire for drink is within the drunkard or love is within the lover.” These are good, sweet thoughts for you to keep in mind right now, Aries.

BEND’S PREMIERE DOWNTOWN DISPENSARY
U
ncle Spliffy is the nickname of former Portland Trail Blazer and 18-year National Basketball Association-veteran Cliff Robinson. Robinson admits he was blazing while playing for the Blazers in the early 1990s, and says that smoking cannabis helped calm his nerves. Robinson also thinks team doctors should treat player pain with cannabis when indicated. In the National Football League, America’s professional football players use cannabis, either to treat chronic pain or simply to enjoy it. However, like all other professional sports leagues in America, the NFL bans its players from using cannabis. Several former NFL players have called for the league to rescind the ban on cannabis, which assumes that cannabis is not a so-called “performance-enhancing drug.” Although Robinson admits he did not like the Uncle Spliffy nickname at first, he is now using it as a brand name for what he calls “Sports Cannabis,” or “marijuana designed for athletes.” The brand has not launched yet, but is apparently aimed at helping users enhance their athletic performance. “When you talk about guys playing on a professional level, there’s a lot of physical and mental stress that comes with that, and to have something available to you that has health benefits, I don’t see the issue with it myself,” says Robinson. Robinson is not the only former athlete who is speaking up about how cannabis has enhanced his athletic performance. Ross Rebagliati won the first gold medal
ever awarded for snowboarding, and he too used cannabis while performing as a world-class athlete. Rebagliati says cannabis helps him focus like nothing else can and talks about the value of cannabis for taking away the drudgery and distractions of the elite athlete’s highly repetitive daily workout. “All the distractions of your phone, the people next to you working out, it just goes away, and you’re just going to pound out the workout,” says Rebagliati. Whereas the NFL does not call cannabis a performance-enhancing drug, the World Anti-Doping Association does. It supports its ban on cannabis by citing studies showing that cannabis can decrease anxiety and increase airflow to the lungs by dilating the bronchial tubes. On the other hand, cannabis has been shown to decrease motor coordination and increase heart rate, which would have a negative impact on performance. Nevertheless, there is a deep physical connection between cannabis and exercise. During exercise, the body produces endocannabanoids, which are compounds that, among other things, ease pain and elevate mood. These endocannabanoids cause the famous runner’s high, and cannabis is thought to work the same way on the brain. The bottom line is that there is very little scientific research on the effect of cannabis on athletic performance, and the true picture will not be known until the federal government eases its ban on cannabis research funding.
