eleased almost 10 years ago, An Inconvenient Truth—a powerpoint presentation turned into a feature film—predicted doom and gloom for the world’s atmosphere and ability to sustain itself. The film was meant both to inform and to scare straight, and showed time-lapse footage of melting ice caps and rising water levels on coastlines—a future that is now present. Yet in spite of the warnings and in spite of the obvious signs of global warming, we continue to not do much. For this year’s Green Issue, I spoke with Angus Duncan who chairs the Oregon Global Warming Commission. He is a very smart and level-headed man, with decades of experience with energy policies. Matter-of-factly, he told me that in 2013, the commission barely gave the state a passing grade for its efforts to curb carbon emissions—and what’s most frightening is that Oregon is doing more than most states. Moreover, it is largely Portland that is carrying out these efforts, while regions like Central Oregon are falling far short. Oh sure, some here drive a Prius, but more still drive SUVs—and, on average, most people drive some 50 miles round trip for their recreational activities (proving that just because you like to do outdoor activities does not mean that you are environmentally-friendly with your lifestyle). Since the commission recommended in 2010 that emissions be reduced to 10 percent less than 1990 levels by 2020, little has changed—and, in this case, making no progress is actually not holding the line, but is losing ground. Yeah, time to do something. Happy Earth Month.

IS THE OSU-CASCADES EXPANSION REALLY GOOD FOR BEND?
Proponents and opponents of the OSU campus might consider the city hall controversy that occurred in Salem several years ago. A ballot measure was proposed by the city to build a new hall. The issue was hotly debated and the ballot measure was voted down. The city again put forth a ballot to build a new city hall, but this time there were two aspects to the proposal. First, are
IN REPLY TO “CAT FIGHT” (4/1)
I saw the story and had some comments on your discussion of the Washington State University study. That study was in area where there is hound hunting, so older males can be targeted. That’s not the situation in Oregon, where hunters may not use hounds. More info: Cougar hunters in Oregon do not target older, stable, dominant
male cats or females. Without the assistance of hounds, it is difficult if not impossible for hunters to target any particular sex or age class of cougar. Most cougars that are harvested are taken when hunters are pursuing other species like deer and elk. In livestock damage or public safety situations, only the offending cougar is removed. The sex and age data collected by ODFW from each cougar killed confirms that older males and females are not being targeted. —Michelle Dennehy, Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife I was sad to learn that Bend Police shot and killed a cougar found roaming around Pilot Butte recently, and this was the second of the big cats killed in the Bend area since the beginning of the year. I realize that Pilot Butte is heavily used and Bend Police were doing their best to safeguard public safety. But really, is this the best we can do to prevent unpleasant encounters between these big predators and humans? Seemingly unrelated, but the City Council’s recent endorsement of the Mirror Pond Ad-Hoc Committee’s plan for revising and maintaining that iconic dam seems relevant here, too. We have been living a way of life that is at war with the wild: Looking at the plants and animals as mere resources at best. In the case of cougars, coyotes, and wolves, when perceived as threats, they’re eliminated. Rivers are to be “managed” for irrigation or even recreation as with the Colorado Dam. The problem is, being at war with the wild is not working. Our own scientists—who gave us the technology to manipulate nature
seemingly at will—are warning us that soil quality is eroding, fresh water supplies are dwindling, and perhaps most alarmingly, the climate is changing in ways that could make the planet uninhabitable. We can kill cougars, tinker with dams, and distract ourselves with dreams of Bend’s rosy economic future. But eventually the wild will win out. Wouldn’t it be better to make peace with it now. —Lawrence I. Messerman, PhD

you for or against a new city hall? Second, do you want the new city hall built in North or South Salem? The debate shifted to whether the city hall should be built in North or South Salem and away from the question of whether the city hall was wanted by the voters. The measures to build passed. The debate concerning the OSU campus has focused on the site, rather than whether OSU is good for Bend. Somehow, many, including the Source, assume the university will be good for Bend even though the proponents have provided little or no evidence as support. An example would be the idea that the university will create jobs that will be filled by local graduates of OSU. What jobs and how many? What guarantee is offered that local graduates will be more qualified for these mythical jobs than graduates from other universities in other locations? Another unanswered question is how much will taxpayers have to pay for police, fire and road infrastructure for the university? Finally, the university indicates they will cap enrollment at 5,000. What happens if they decide to expand to 20,000 or 30,000 students? So many questions, so few answers. —D. Harris

I gather that the Riverside Market is a sort of a fixture here in Old Bend, a haven in an unapologetically changing city, and an attractive alternative to the endless supply of overpriced, overcrowded and over-gentrified eat and drinkeries in Bend, BUT what about the people who actually LIVE near it? On any night (or afternoon) of the week, screaming, hollering, yelling—just a few of the many sounds that are made and only get louder when alcohol (and far too much) is added—fill the yards and rooms of residents nearby. Cars are revved with questionable intent and the vibe of indifference, at best, is in the air. Cigarettes are smoked around children on their afternoon “playground,” and around the nightly campfire. Why is this tolerated? How can the owner of a “market” in Old Bend allow this and how can we as a community condone it? Under the Bend City Code, 5.50.025, Prohibited Noises, “Any yelling, shouting, hooting, whistling, or other human produced noise that is unnecessarily loud,” is “prohibited.” Police have been called numerous times by residents, but nothing changes. Aren’t there indoor pubs and bars where the escalated voices of the inebriated can be withheld from those not interested in hearing them, and aren’t there ample parks where children and dogs can be included? It seems very inappropriate that the activities which characterize and define the Riverside Market should be carried out in the center of a residential neighborhood. —Anonymous

THE BOOT NEWS
Building the Big Picture At last week’s City Council meeting, the debate over how to manage short-term rentals began to take more focus when City Council voted unanimously to support the first reading of ordinances that include a new short-term rental licensing program and changes to land use code that limit the concentration of what are frequently referred to as vacation rentals. After listening to concerns from residents—mostly relating to noise levels and livability in specific neighborhoods—it seems as if City Council is favoring means to limit the burgeoning short-term rental market. That step toward regulation is an important means to bring some sanity to a freewheeling rental market—but for reasons that were not expressed during the City Council deliberations. That is, we are hoping that the discussion about short-term vacation rentals will begin to consider the larger impact on affordable housing and long-term rentals, an increasingly pressing problem for many residents, and at the center of discussions about how and if Bend can retain its “livability.” Namely, short-term rentals are creating two major pressures on the market for affordable housing and long-term rentals. For starters, it tends to be more profitable to rent out rooms or houses on Airbnb than a traditional month-to-month or year-long lease—often easily doubling or tripling revenue. Over the past couple years, this has motivated a major shift in the housing market, with hundreds of former or potential long-term rental units shifting to short-term vacation rentals. There are currently about 500 short-term rentals registered with the City of Bend, while the Central Oregon Rental Association’s 2014 tallied only 17 rental vacancies in Bend. In turn, that dramatic change in supply-and-demand has pinched the rental market by both reducing the availability of rental space for residents, while increasing the prices. Yes, this is a major and complicated problem, and one that also has created a philosophical undertow for the city’s attitude about housing—that is, it makes Bend a city more hospital to tourists than its residents, and only complicates the available solutions for affordable housing. On Sunday, the Bulletin ran an editorial that expressed the same concern, that “Bend has an affordable housing problem.” However, their solution was ridiculously simple: They suggested that “SDCs should be anelection topic.” In a nutshell, SDCs (System Development Charges) are fees collected both by the City and by Bend Park & Recreation from both commercial and residential developers. In turn, that money helps fund basic infrastructure—like the city’s streets, sewers, and water lines, as well as preserving parks in the region. The Parks & Rec fees add roughly $5,000 per unit to the cost of building a 92-unit apartment building. The argument seems to go that SDCs force housing prices higher so that developers can recoup these additional expenses—and certainly there is validity in that calculation. But The Bulletin urges that “[s]ystem development charges should be front and center in [the May election of three Parks & Rec Board members].” We disagree. Trying to solve Bend’s affordable housing problem by pulling out SDCs from Parks & Rec is like removing one stick from a Jenga tower; the problem of affordable housing is complicated and interconnected, and hardly has one simple solution. Moreover, it seems acutely disingenuous to suggest removing a funding source for public parks and open spaces as a means to create more access and livability for the city’s working class families. A month ago, a proposal was floated to Parks & Rec for waiving SDCs for multi-family housing dedicated to households at or below 60 percent of the median income. Yes, that idea is an attractive notion for encouraging developers to build more affordable housing in the region—and, could serve as one piece of the puzzle, but it certainly does not represent the entire solution and should be an option limited only to permits for projects dedicated to low-income housing. To declare that candidates’ stances on SDCs should be the central feature for the upcoming election oversimplifies the solution for affordable housing, while also setting a dangerous precedent that hands over the power and responsibility for solving affordable housing problems to private market forces—hardly an economic or civic theory that has a strong track record. Affordable housing is a huge problem, and we need to think about the big picture.

God Save the Sage-Grouse
Will voluntary conservation measures prevent federal regulation?
SIDE NOTES BY ERIN ROOK

Last Thursday, the Western Governors’ Association released a report detailing the efforts of 11 states to conserve sage-grouse habitat. It’s part of an attempt to prevent the bird, which makes its home in sage brush-steppe habitat across the West, from being listed under the Endangered Species Act. It’s already been established that the sage-grouse qualifies. But government, business, and nonprofit partners have until September to show the Environmental Protection Agency that their voluntary efforts are enough and that potentially costly government regulations are not needed. “It’s a smart move,” says Brad Chalfant, executive director of Deschutes Land Trust, which is listed in the report as a partnering organization. “The governor’s office has been heavily involved in trying to get these agreements in place that would essentially head off necessitating a listing. I think everyone agrees the sage-grouse is in trouble.” Though the report says little about the work being done in Oregon, the Nature Conservancy’s Eastern Oregon Conservation Director Garth Fuller says Oregon is leading the way in many respects. “We’re the only state that has all of our sage-grouse habitat covered under the abilty to create [conservation] plans,” Fuller says, referencing agreements, like those signed by soil and water conservation districts in Central and Eastern Oregon last month, that essentially allow land owners to get their conservation plans approved and grandfathered into any potential regulations associated with endangered species listing. He adds that the highlight of the work being done in Oregon in the leadup to a decision in September is the relationship building among environmentalists and industrial and ranching interests. “We’re all trying to remove the need to list the sage-grouse,” Fuller says. “A plan is just a plan, but what’s really good is the relationships that have developed.” Dan Morse, conservation director for the Oregon Natural Desert Association, agrees that these relationships play a critical role in protecting sage-grouse habitats, but is critical of the emphasis on avoiding listing the bird. “The fundamental question is not whether or not listing the bird does the species any good,” Morse explains, but rather whether or not the sage-grouse has the necessary numbers, genetic variability and quality habitat for continued existence. “I think the report comes at that question a little backwards.” Instead of looking at whether or not the states’ efforts are sufficient to avoid an ESA listing, he says, agencies should be asking if the species needs greater protection. As such, ONDA is neither for nor against the bird being listed. “We want the mechanism that gets us there most effectively or quickly,” Morse says.
The benefit of the push for voluntary conservation efforts is that it moves the timeline up, he explains. The risk, however, is that these measures may not be as strong as a regulatory approach. As the clock ticks closer to the September decision day, formal conservation plans are in the works at the Bureau of Land Management and the State of Oregon. The plans, Fuller explains, will help give teeth to the voluntary efforts already underway. Previous plans failed to provide sufficient protection in part because they only suggested but did not require closing off any areas to large-scale energy transmission such as power lines and pipelines, Morse explains, and because they did not go far enough in addressing the risks to sage-grouse habitat posed by grazing. In addition to energy and grazing, sage-grouse are threatened by the encroachment of non-native plant species, such as cheat grass and Medusa head, as well as the pervasive western juniper. As the beuarocratic gears continue turning, Morse is connecting with landowners in these habitats to come up with mutually agreeable ways to protect the sage-grouse. And while ranchers and environmentalists may not always see eye-to-eye, Morse says they have a shared interest in ensuring the sage-grouse’s continued existence. “They are very easy and pleasant conversations with people who care about the place, often with a long history in the community,” he says. “They would say they are champions of the sage-grouse.” And it’s in their best interest to champion that cause because, as Morse explains, it’s not just about the bird. The sage-grouse is an “indicator species,” which means that when its habitat is threatened, so too is the continued existence of a number of other animal and plant species—including the grasses cattle use for grazing. “They have a habitat that supports the viability of about 300 other species,” he says. “Sage-grouse is a fantastic indication of how that ecosystem is doing.” Because sage-grouse is a landscape-scale species—meaning that its habitat spans large tracts of public and private lands—its diagnosis varies from one state to the next. According to the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife, the species is doing better in Oregon than in other states. “While energy developers are taking a land rush look at Oregon, ODFW and others are working to balance the needs of the greater sage-grouse with the economic needs of rural communities,” the department wrote in its 2011 report on the status of the bird. “To this end, we will work with partners on conservation strategies for key areas and mitigation policies.” To illustrate, while the greater sage-grouse population only occupies 56 percent of its pre-European settlement territory, the bird can be found in 80 percent of its former home in Oregon. Still, the ODFW estimates that Oregon’s sage-grouse population has decreased an average of 1.6 percent each year since 1980 and that it’s about a third the size it was in the 1950s and 1960s.
Last week, after hours of deliberation and months of meetings, City Council voted unanimously to support the first reading of ordinances intended to stem the tide of vacation rentals encroaching on residential neighborhoods. The first ordinance will require new and existing short-term rentals owners to obtain an annual license with the City. However, new licenses will not be transferrable with sale of the property (rather, following the owner) except under limited circumstances—transfers to family members following death or divorce, or continued ownership by an LLC so long as its membership remains at least 25 percent the same. The original ordinance language would have applied these transfer limitations on existing short-term rentals, but councilors opted to remove that regulation, largely in the interest of achieving a unanimous vote. By doing so, they were able to enact an emergency clause, allowing the ordinance to go into effect after the second reading (scheduled for April 15), rather than 30 days later. A number of councilors who might otherwise have been in favor of greater restrictions on existing uses, explained that they were willing to wait and see if the number of licensed short-term rentals in heavily affected neighborhoods experiences a natural attrition from the programmatic changes and re-evaluate at a later date. Though some short-term rental owners have threatened legal action, City Attorney Mary Winters said such threats are to be expected, and that she believes the ordinances are legally defensible. Part of the reason councilors were so eager to move forward on the changes is that fears about the outcome of this process have prompted a gold rush of sorts, with the number of approved vacation home rental permits spiking in recent months. In 2014, the City approved 262 vacation home rental permits—more than the number approved from 2007 to 2013 combined. As of March 31, the City had approved another 89.

Too Little, Too Late, and Probably Not At All With little hope for stopping global warming, the question becomes how to adapt and survive BY PHIL BUSSE
“T
he good news is they didn’t go up,” says Angus Duncan, speaking about greenhouse gas emissions. He adds, “The bad news is they don’t go down.” For the past 40 years, Duncan has been working with local and national agencies to modify energy policy, and for the past eight years has chaired the Oregon Global Warming Commission, a group that makes recommendations to Oregon State Legislature and to various governmental agencies on how to reduce carbon emissions. This commission is the closest thing that governmental agencies in Oregon have to a consciousness about global warming—and, as such, provides suggestions for correcting behaviors, like creating better transit systems so residents can drive less, and eliminating coal-based energy sources. But, much like New Year’s resolutions, suggestions by the commission are merely recommendations—and, after several years, that lack of accountability is showing its shortcomings in Oregon’s failure to make any real headway toward driving down carbon emissions enough and fast enough to avoid dramatic climate changes. Most broadly, the commission has set three goals, the first of which was to stop the increase of carbon emissions, the primary contributor to global warming. Throughout the 1980s and 1990s in Oregon, carbon emissions were steadily increasingly by one or two percent annually. By 1999, though, Oregon residents and governmental agencies did manage to stop those increases in their tracks.
It is an important date to note for two reasons: For starters, 1999 is a time before An Inconvenient Truth was released, before the Prius was available in the United States and wind generated power was eight percent of current capacity; and second, while Oregon’s carbon emissions peaked in 1999, most other states did not manage to curb increases until nearly a decade later. But the commission has not been satisfied simply by stopping the increase in carbon emissions; to avoid global warming disasters, they understand that carbon emissions actually need to be dramatically reduced. Set in 2010, the second goal for the commission is to reduce carbon emissions in the state by 2020 to 10 percent less than 1990 levels. “The goal is to start bending (carbon emissions) back downhill,” explains Duncan. It is a critical goal—in part because there has been more than enough time for residents to modify their habits, like single-occupancy car commuting and switching from coal-based energy supplies, together which account for roughly half of carbon emissions. Yet, halfway between 2010, when the goal was set, and 2020, the due date, there is no evidence that Oregon is doing anything better than holding the line, nor is it making any motions toward reaching the ultimate goal—reduction of carbon emissions by 2050 to 75 percent of 1990 levels. In a report card to the state legislature in 2013, the commission essentially gave Oregon a C-plus. “Which,” says Duncan, “is not nearly enough,” adding, “and we’re one of the better states.”
Duncan does point out that there have been important lifestyle and public policy changes over the past decade, like maintaining strong Urban Growth Boundaries and improvements in transit systems—both which help reduce the need for and frequency of driving. But those achievements are not statewide, and topics like Urban Growth Boundaries and mass transit systems remain hotly disputed and slow to take root in Central Oregon. Moreover, there are few indicators that the general population in Central Oregon is taking global warming—and changing personal habits accordingly—seriously. In Central Oregon, according to interviews conducted by Fuse Insight Labs in 2011 fon behalf of the commission, general attitudes toward global warming remain divided— especially along regional and political lines. In the Bend area, there was a near equal split in respondents between those who “care deeply” and those “skeptical” about global warming. Outside the immediate area, in Redmond and La Pine, the responses were almost exclusively skeptical—a stubbornness that most likely translates to an inability to make change. It is probably not only too little and too late, but instead the central question about global warming is increasingly how will we adapt to an increasingly dry region that will have more forest fires, less snow for skiing, and less water available for home use, as well as for popular industries like golf and beer.

A Sign of the Apocalypse
Droughts, droughts everywhere, but how many drops are being conserved? BY PHIL BUSSE
One of the impacts of global warming is the prolonged droughts on the West Coast—and the corresponding shortage of water for growing food and flushing toilets. In California and Oregon, snow packs have traditionally been critical water sources when they melt in the springtime. But, reduced to less than one-tenth of normal levels, those resources are increasingly scarce, creating potential impacts on agriculture and lifestyles, with so much of what makes Bend “Bend” relying on high water consumption (green lawns, golf courses, beer production). Yet, in spite of the pending crisis, the City of Bend is not asking for any water restrictions. On the other hand, last week, California Gov. Jerry Brown ordered the first mandatory water restrictions in California’s history. Standing on a ski hill, mostly barren from snow, he pointed out that usually the area would be covered in several feet of snow this time of year; snow pack is roughly six percent of average this year. A year ago, Gov. Brown requested 20 percent reductions in water usage, but those voluntary restrictions did little to nothing to change water consumption habits in California. In Central Oregon, snow packs are roughly the same low percentage as those in California.
“This is a great year for all our customers to take stock of all their water uses,” says Mike Buettner, the City’s water conservation program manager. “Especially outdoor water use, as it is typically the largest water use for each customer, and has the most opportunity to increase efficiency.” Water use by Bend residents is about middle of the road. In 2013, it was approximately 55 gallons per capita per day (gpcd), compared to a national average of 65 gpcd for “non-conserving” households. However, households that do implement conservation measures consume far less than the average Bend household—about 45 gpcd according to the American Water Works Association. In July, there will be a single baby step toward rewarding conservation as new water rates take hold. Currently, residential customers are charged a flat rate for any amount of water less than 400 cubic feet each month, and $1.68 for each additional 100 cubic feet—a system that does little to encourage low water usage. In December, City Council adopted a new system, which will charge for each 100 cubic feet. City Council failed to implement a stronger incentive based system that would have created pricing tiers, by which higher volumes of water usage would be charged at higher rates.
It’s Not the End of the World
Why planning and resilience trump panic and retreat BY ERIN ROOK
As climate change becomes a more pressing reality than looming threat, those still sitting pretty are starting to take note of the devastating impacts of changes in weather patterns across the globe. As close to home as Alaska, the first domestic so-called “climate refugees” are grappling with the fact that the land they’ve called home is increasingly being swept out to sea. NPR reports that in Newtok—a native Alaskan village of about 350 people—the nearby Ninglick River is rising so rapidly due to ice melt that the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers predicts the town’s high point could be entirely submerged by 2017. And while the Deschutes River is more likely to reduce in flow than flood, severe drought in California or Central Oregon could send people packing. To find out how climate-related migration might impact the region, we talked to Portland State University Urban Studies and Planning Professor Ethan Seltzer, whose students in 2011 produced a report titled “Environmental Migrants and the Future of the Willamette Valley.” The takeaway from Seltzer’s remarks? That no matter what the still-uncertain future may hold, Central Oregonians are better served by smart planning that bunker building. Source Weekly: Do you anticipate that, even if we experience some measure of drought and increased wildfires, we might still be a destination for people in worse
affected areas (i.e. California)? Ethan Seltzer: It’s all relative. People live where they do for a range of reasons, but for the most part, they choose where they want to be. Choosing to leave is a big step, and it would take either a catastrophe of some sort, or the elimination of something they really like where they are to get them to start to think about moving. And then, where they move could be anywhere, not just Oregon. So, if things get really bad in California, then yes, even with local droughts up here, we’ll probably see folks coming. But, in the absence of a real catastrophe in California, it likely won’t be a tidal wave of migration. SW: There’s been speculation that when The Big One (earthquake) finally hits, Oregonians living west of the Cascades will flood Central and Eastern Oregon. Do you have a sense of the relative timelines for The Big One and for the degree of climate change likely to inspire migration to Oregon? How might one affect the other, and which is likely to happen first? ES: If I knew the answer to this question, I’d probably also know the winning numbers for Power Ball. And again, if Western Oregon falls into the Ocean, western Oregonians will go many places, not just or exclusively or maybe at all to eastern Oregon.
SW: How can Central Oregonians prepare for the likelihood of climate-related migration, whether they are planning to flee or expecting an influx? ES: The best thing that could happen is to think through what folks want their communities to be like should they grow due to climate-induced migration in the decades ahead. That is, what makes a community a better version of what it is today? What would you put in place to try to realize that vision rather than something else? And, what can be done now to make sure that water supplies and other needed infrastructure can be built to implement the desired vision, rather than simply waiting to see what descends? Bottom line: Plan for what you want and for resilience, and that will be about the best you can do. SW: Is there anything else you’d like to add? ES: There will be a tomorrow. The world is not coming to an end. But, the world we’ll live in in the future will be different than the one we know today. This is a time not to try to defeat or stave off change, but to sharpen our focus on what makes a good place, and to redouble our efforts to move in that direction. It’ll be about working with change to sustain core values, if that makes sense. Fundamentally, it’s like crossing a river: you have to work with the current or you will surely drown.

Simply Her Best
“The Butte Lady” leads efforts to restore Bend’s iconic Pilot Butte State Park BY ERIN ROOK
“Hi honey, how are you?” Each time a hiker passes by Carol Smith—better known as “The Butte Lady”—she utters that same refrain. More often than not, it is returned with smiles and hugs. She’s hard pressed to find a stranger among those out for a Monday morning hike. Petite and nearly 60 years old, Smith may not seem the obvious choice for the public face of Pilot Butte. But the title, she points out, chose her. “It all started at Costco and quickly got to the point where I couldn’t go there without someone saying, ‘There’s The Butte Lady,’” Smith recalls. “Then it started happening in other Oregon cities and in other states [Washington, Idaho, Montana]. All of that just happened by itself. I never did anything to encourage it. I just hiked and talked with people. Then it happened at a Fred Meyer in Fairbanks and my husband said, ‘We should use this to help the Butte.’” And so it began that Smith, who recently finished a decade-long stint with her husband Bill as Pilot Butte’s park host, embarked on an effort to turn her warm, bubbly personality and odd sort of celebrity into a tool to give back to the park that helped her get back on her feet. Today, The Butte Lady also has a presence on social media including Facebook, Twitter,and Instagram. “Mainly we use it to draw attention to all the things people want to happen at the Butte,” Smith explains. “We never had any ideas of what this would become except that we would do our best to accomplish things that everyone who uses the trails wanted. In a way, I think The Butte Lady is successful because everyone has a bit of The Butte Lady in them.” If it’s true, it’s a compliment. Smith’s relationship with Pilot Butte has the underpinnings of a Rocky-esque victory over seemingly insurmountable circumstances. Not so long ago, Smith says she could hardly walk from her bed to the bathroom, her fibromyalgia pain was so severe. But eventually, she made it to the first bench along Pilot Butte’s nature trail, and then the next one and the next one, all the while cheered on by the friends she’d made on the Butte. Before long she was taking as many as 18 trips up the Butte in one day, as a park host. “The Butte is important to me because it gave me my life back,” Smith says. “But it wasn’t the Butte that did that, it was the people hiking the trails, encouraging me, then being inspired by me and others, and mostly becoming my friends. I’d do anything to help the Butte.” When she talks about that time, her eyes well up and a few stray tears stream down her face. But Smith is not just moved by her own experience, it’s the stories of others who have turned their health around thanks to Pilot Butte and

its makeshift community that stoke the fire fueling her commitment to making Pilot Butte the nation’s first and best “health and fitness park.” To do that, she explains, the park needs some love and attention. A combination of heavy use and small state budgets has left Pilot Butte State Park in disrepair. Smith says that the park needs more than the Oregon State Park system can provide, and volunteers continue to fill in the gaps. “Pilot Butte has one of the most fragile ecosystems of all the Oregon State Parks,” Smith explains. “Right now the Butte is being loved back to life and almost everyone who loves the Butte is, in their own way, an environmentalist. I certainly am. I would have never called myself that if not for the Butte.” Smith and her cohorts with the Pilot Butte Summit Seekers are focusing in on returning Pilot Butte to its former beauty. To accomplish that mountainous task, they are teaming up with Winter Creek Restoration, a local company that specializes in restoration landscaping using native plants. On the fitness front, the group is partnering with Rebound Physical Therapy, who Smith says is so dedicated they would carry the torch if everyone else dropped out. While fitness and landscape restoration may not seem like a natural pairing, Smith says they have everything to do with each other. Each year, the Summit Seekers host an event called Simply My Best, in which participants raise
funds for improvements on Pilot Butte in a summit-a-thon of sorts, where sponsors donate a fixed amount for each summit a person makes that day. As part of the fundraiser, organizers poll participants to see how they would like the money to be spent. “Not only is natural beauty at the top of the list of what people want, there’s nothing close to it,” Smith says. “Denny Sullivan maybe put it best when he said, ‘Exercising in a beautiful place keeps you going back for more.’ I think that’s why natural beauty tops the list. These are people very motivated to build, maintain, and improve their fitness and health. The Butte’s beauty keeps them going. They believe the more beautiful it is, the more likely they are to continue. They also want others to discover what they’ve discovered. Beauty is key to all of that.” In an effort to capture that passion, the Summit Seekers is turning Simply My Best into a revamped community event called A Summer Celebration. Slated for June 20, Smith says it will include food, music, and other festivities aimed at raising funds and awareness for the Mirror Pond of Bend’s east side. “The journey needs to be fun too,” Smith points out, “or it will never be completed.” To learn more about the volunteer activities at Pilot Butte, call 541-306-8411 or visit pilotbuttesummitseekers.org.

The Doom and Gloom Shopping List A beginners’ guide to preparing for natural disasters and more BY HAYLEY JO MURPHY
Survivalists aren’t only preparing for the end of the world as we know it, but are prepping for the more likely “smaller” disasters of life. From droughts and power outages to making daily adventures easier, this shopping list is designed to plan for the unexpected, or in the case of global warming, the highly expected. Let’s be honest, even if the world is ending iPhones will be the last to go. Solar power is the way to go once power grids shut down, or for a less apocalyptic reason—when you’re out hiking on that weekend camping trip. The Goal Zero Guide 10 Plus Adventure Kit Solar Charger powers up iPads and other tablet computers, cell phones, GPS, and rechargeable batteries anywhere you go—just add sunlight! This portable solar panel fits easily in a backpack and can be found for $120 at REI (380 SW Powerhouse Dr, Bend). Under normal conditions humans can only survive three days without water, and with droughts predicted, access to clean drinking water is of utmost importance. Treading the middle ground between the lightest and most durable filters, the MSR SweetWater Microfilter makes water treatment easy. This small system found for $89.95 at Mountain Supply (834 NW Colorado Ave., Bend) and eliminates more than 99.9999 percent of all waterborne bacteria and 99.9 percent of common protozoan parasites, such as Giardia.
After treatment, the Hydaway collapsible water bottle is a great option for toting water or for anyone with an active lifestyle. This bottle expands to fill and after use easily collapses so it can stow in a pocket or pack. Currently in its Kickstarter stages, Hydaway bottles can be pre-ordered online (hydawaybottle.com)
Bodies can last far longer without food than w a ter—around three weeks—but it won’t be fun. Therefore, access to food is a must and growing your own food is a great way to not be dependent on current food systems. Central Oregon Seed Exchange is a local resource for purchasing, sharing, and saving seeds. It has a seed fridge in Central Oregon Locavore (1216 NE 1st St, Bend) where seeds for lettuce, peas, herbs, melons and more can be purchased (varying prices). It takes a while to get a home garden going and survivalists want to be prepared for the unknown today. Prepper Up (862 NW 3rd St., Prineville) offers a great selection of freeze-dried foods and even offers The Supreme Freeze-Dried & Dehydrated Food Supply Package that is designed to provide a person with 2,000 calories per day for three, six, or 12 months depending on the package size ($1,175.99-$4,541.99).

Despite absentee parents, singer Neko Case raised herself into a Grammy nominated artist
SUGGESTS... BY ANNE PICK
BY ETHAN MAFFEY
On more than one occasion, singer Neko Case has claimed, “I should have been an abortion.” Her quotes typically read as a tad flippant and with a measurable distaste for the two humans who—despite clearly deficient life skills—brought her into the world and subjected her to a whirlwind of dysfunction. “My dad was mentally ill and my mom just wasn’t a good person. And they were both drug addicts and alcoholics. So they shouldn’t have had a kid,” Case told The Guardian in 2013. Yet, thanks to her father’s (albiet tepid) religious beliefs rendering abortion a non-option, here she is; 44 years later with three Grammy nominations and more than a dozen studio albums under her belt that span a solo career as well as contributions to The New Pornographers. She now lives on a majestic 100-plus acre farm in Vermont; her once nomadic life—splitting time between parents who did eventually divorce, thus magnifying their neglectful tendencies— firmly in the rear view mirror. It’s the kind of stability adults with her pedigree rarely forge for themselves. When Case left her father’s Tacoma, Washington, home at the age of 15 only to alight into the growing Pacific Northwest grunge rock scene—first as a drummer, then as a singer—she forever set the stage for that childhood to find its way into song. Following an abbreviated misspent youth, Case ended up in a Canadian art school and eventually found herself experiencing commercial success as a member of The New Pornographers. Today, Case has morphed from a rock songstress into a kind of modernday country singer with punk, Americana tendencies. She records more solo albums than collaborative ones, and has never truly stopped dealing with the fallout from that childhood. Her smoky twang is the perfect tone for expressing tightly held emotions in ballads and her sanguine blend of honkytonk and alt rock are capable vehicles for capturing the less distressed themes found in her music, the result of all she’s overcome. On her latest album—2013’s The Worse Things Get, The Harder I Fight, The More I Love You—the, oddly, conventionally tempered daughter of those Ukranian immigrants who created so much chaos, was once again forced to relive her childhood angst when not only did her grandmother pass away, but both of her parents as well.
The Brothers Comatose Two things to know about The Brothers Comatose, based primarily on their name—the band’s guitar and banjo players, who also act as lead vocalists, are in fact brothers Ben and Alex Morrison. Second, and most importantly, despite their name, the music they play is anything but comatose. Expect to be stomping and clapping along, perhaps even singing along to the band’s lively stringed sound. The Brothers Comatose have opened for The Devil Makes Three and Yonder Mountain String Band, placing them directly in the string band sweet spot Bend has grown to embrace and love. Also performing: Marty O’Reilly and The Old Soul Orchestra. 8 pm, Thursday, April 9. The Belfry, 302 Main St, Sisters. $13.
NEKO CASE’S NEW LINE OF WALLPAPER. SO PEACEFUL! 4/12
During the writing process, depression slowly set in and stifled creativity. “I fought it really hard, which was unproductive,” Case told the New York Post. “I think me trying to fight it made it take longer than me just accepting it. I hadn’t slowed down to take any of that in. Then [grief] just kind of hit me over the head and said, ‘You have to deal with this now.’” Though Case typically shies away from including much personal specificity in her music, it’s damn near impossible not to imagine songs on The Worse Things Get as anything but intensely intimate. Whether it’s singing about her brain making drugs to keep her slow on “Night Still Comes”—a likely reference to the paralyzing effects of depression—or the haunting cover the 1970 song “Afraid,” by Warhol Superstar Nico, featuring the lyrics: “Have someone else’s will as your own” and “You are beautiful and you are alone”—which seemingly capture the kind of messages a now-adult Case might want to sing to her child self if she could—it’s clear she was wrestling with
some important issues while making this album. Still, Case is not one to be completely defined by relics of the past. She regularly talks about singing songs to—and about— her dogs, is known for lighthearted banter at her concerts, and devotes much of her time to caring for animals, farming, and in general enjoying the fruits of a well-adjusted adult life. But as she admitted to Arizona Public Radio last year, there will always be some elements of her past that she just can’t shake, including a desire to feel wanted. “…I raised myself, so, I’m probably less afraid and less self-conscious in some way,” said Case. “But that desire’s still there, like, love me, I’ll love you back. Look how I’ll love you! Let’s get to the lovin’ everybody!” Neko Case 7 pm, Sunday, April 12 Tower Theatre 835 NW Wall St. $51.50-$72.50

Fruition Portland-based rootsy folk-rock band Fruition has packed venues in its hometown and across the country. Making Bend a frequent stop on its packed touring schedule has brought the band’s high-energy, acoustic sound back to town to headline the Bend Spring Festival on Friday night. This year finds the band opening for bluegrass/ folk-rockers Trampled by Turtles and playing at the infamous High Sierra Music Festival, among many others. The band, which specializes in danceable string-based music, originally came together over a shared love of music, life on the road, and a sense of adventure. The adventure continues this weekend at Bend Spring Festival. 9:15 pm, Friday, April 10. Bend Spring Festival, NorthWest Crossing Neighborhood. Free.
April showers bring May flowers, as they say. And here in the drought-parched West we sure could use some of that April drizzle. And if we’re going to do a rain dance, then we need the right tunes. So here they are: a mixtape comprised entirely of songs about rain, including obvious classics like “November Rain,” from Gun N’Roses and “The Rain Song,” from Led Zeppelin, but also lesser known rain songs from The Temptations, Bruno Mars and Spoon. Also, “Raining Blood,” from Slayer, because: metal.
Yamn On the opposite side of the rock spectrum, Colorado-based Yamn brings its spacey livetronica to the Volcanic Theatre Pub. From entrancing synth melodies to head-banging rock riffs with soulful elements in between, Yamn plays danceable, seductive jams that it hopes enhance the lives of listeners. Don’t expect to see a standup bass on stage at this show, but rather a laptop that assists in producing the band’s hard dance beats and electronic overtones. 9 pm, Wednesday, April 15. Volcanic Theatre Pub, 70 SW Century Dr. $7/adv., $10/door.

There’s something special about Fernando Viciconte’s voice. Whether delivering words of longing and heartbreak over sorrowful strums of an acoustic guitar, or painting dreamlike narratives over meaty psychedelic guitars, there’s a raw quality about his voice that cuts through style and cultural context to connect on an unmistakably human level. As he alternates between English and Spanish lyrics, you feel his words, even when you can’t understand them. Over the course of eight studio albums and decades of performances, Viciconte’s voice has transcended its original function to serve as a window into a man’s psyche—the product of a lifetime spent in front of a microphone. “Even as a little kid I was always singing in the back of the car and writing songs in my head. Creating melodies has been something that I’ve done for as long as I can remember,” he recalls. “I mean, I was imitating Elvis Presley when I was five. I’ve always loved it, but it’s a matter of taste whether the voice is good or not.” It’s become quite obvious people do in fact enjoy it, as he’s attracted the admiration of an all-star cast of Portland’s finest musicians—including collaborators Mike Coykendall and Scott McPherson of M. Ward, Dan Eccles of Richmond Fontaine, and Lewi Longmire of The Left Coast Roasters. Scott McCaughey of R.E.M. was so impressed after hearing recent demos that he convinced Viciconte to return from a hiatus, actively participating in the recording process of Viciconte’s eighth studio album, Leave The Radio On (due for release on Portland’s Fluff and Gravy Records on August 15). “The people closest to me are the ones that influence me more than anyone else. I’m surrounded by talented musicians and visual artists that influence me everyday,” Viciconte explains. “The guys that I’m traveling with right now are all great artists. Everyone’s a singer-songwriter in their own right, so I respect their music and vice-versa. There’s a mutual admiration between all of us.” Though his exceptionally talented support system has never been in doubt, it wasn’t long ago that Viciconte’s most valuable asset was in jeopardy. Since the early 2000s, he’s suffered from severe acid reflux caused by an undiagnosed hiatal hernia, resulting in damage to his esophagus and vocal cords. Fortunately, after the problem was finally discovered and diagnosed, Viciconte successfully underwent a major operation two years ago that not only eliminated the problem, but allowed him to come back stronger than ever—a feat unusual for a performer entering the back end of his 40s. “For years there was acid pouring down my throat, so everyday I was horse when I would wake up. I already have a scratchy voice to begin with, so I didn’t need any help from that,” he says. “It’s funny because as they get older a lot of people drop the pitches on their songs because they have to drop the key a little bit to be able to sing it, but the opposite happened to me. I’ve been raising the keys because I had to sing lower before, so I’ve been singing better than ever.” He adds, “The operation completely changed my life.” With renewed energy, the Argentinian-born Viciconte expanded on his diverse brand of rock’n’roll as he brought Leave The Radio On to life. After dabbling in country, pop, doowop, folk, and soul variations over the years, his new sounds take on a decidedly psychedelic tone. Blending the influences that dot his various cultural backgrounds, Viciconte soaks traditional Argentinian triplet rhythms in reverb and marries them with Simon & Garfunkel-esque melodies. The end product includes some of the finest work of his long career. Fortunately for us, he has no plans of slowing down anytime soon. “I can’t stop doing it,” he confesses. “I’ve got at least three records worth of music demoed, just on my iPhone alone. Even if I have to record something on a tape recorder at home, put it on a cassette and give it to my friend, I’m going to do it. I don’t know how to do anything else better.” Fernando 7 pm.

5:30PM | TIM SNIDER
When Portland-based musician, Tim Snider headed to Sao Paulo, Brazil in 2012 he couldn’t know that he was about to meet his musical twin and dear friend, Caio Andreatta. From these two very diverse musicians, drawing on a musical history developed almost 7,000 miles apart, IN BRAZIL was born. While most of the album was recorded in Sao Paulo, Snider recruited a few Portland musical powerhouses to round out the sound: Max Ribner on flugelhorn and the amazing vocals of soultress, Saeeda Wright (Liv Warfield).
Sharing a common love of music and life on the road, Fruition were originally brought together by the lure of adventure. For the last six years, the Portland, Ore. string infused quintet has racked up the miles playing sold out shows in their adopted hometown and garnering new fans across the country. Fruition released Just One of Them Nights in 2013 and it’s an album that finds the band tackling the many struggles and successes that come along with living a vagabond lifestyle and the search for artistic clarity.

11:00AM | THE MOMS
THE MOMS
MOMS is the lovechild of Nashville narratives, Oregon folk roots and LA atmosphere. Their relationship began during college in Tennessee, and six years later they have found themselves as a creative duo in Los Angeles. Since the formation, MOMS has been covering ground in LA and Oregon, writing and playing in a variety of venues, festivals and backyards. “Our dream writing session is being surrounded by a million instruments. The process starts with the hum of a melody or the truth of an experience, and from there the creation madness begins. We often find ourselves writing songs outside of a specific genre, with the end goal being an honest story -- at least through our eyes.”

3:00PM | THE JUNEBUGS
heels to. The Junebugs originated on the Vancouver, BC circuit before migrating south to Portland, OR. There, guitarist Barrett picked up drummer Kyle Owen and bassist Sean Vinson, equally bearded and hailing from impressive musical backgrounds. Covering everything from Tom Petty to TLC to Lorde, the eclectic taste of the trio ranges from turnofthecentury Americana to modern Hip Hop, with a strong emphasis on vocal harmony. Their original tunes have a dreamy, sweet quality reminiscent of Neil Young and Iron & Wine, peppered with fiery banjo lines. There is something for everyone here.
5:00PM | WEATHER MACHINE The Weather Machine’s sophomore full-length, Peach, was recorded over the course of two years, and showcases the band’s transition from folk-born storytelling into the realm power-ballads and effects pedals. Common threads of levity and intrigue tie the album together as the project experiments with musical identity to cover a breadth of sonic and lyrical ground. It’s not quite “tongue and cheek,” but Peach makes the listener wonder, pitting a faux-country anthem called “Wannabe Cowboys” right up against the electronic slow-jam title track, then moving deftly along into “Breakup Song” – a tune worthy of high-kicking chorus lines. Recorded between Pacific City and Portland, OR, the album was produced by the band’s guitarist Colin Robson at Kiwanda Sound Recordings and debuts on March 24, 2015.
7:00PM | EXCELLENT GENTLEMEN
JACOB WESTFALL BAND
Originally from Nashville, and now residing in Portland, Oregon, Jacob Westfall is a 21-year-old singer-songwriter with a strong appreciation for the craft. Soulful vocals that are consistently compared to Michael Bublé and John Mayer support the songwriter in his performances. He wrote his first song at age nine, and on April 7th, released his first commercially available album, “What If”, which was produced, recorded, and engineered by renowned Portland producers Bob Stark (Esperanza Spalding, Decemberists, The Shins), Ryan Yerdon (Puddle of Mudd, Weezer), and Steve Sundholm (Carrie Underwood, One Republic). Jacob is a career artist, and has set goals to allow him to do this for the rest of his life. Always writing, always creating.
WEATHER MACHINE
Bend Oregon based Wilderness is a band dancing somewhere between the lines of rock n roll, folk, and experimental-noise-pop… If there is such a thing… Appropriately described by the Bulletin’s music editor, Ben Salmon, as a “..northof-the-border version of Southwestern roots act Calexico, or an earthbound take on Explosions in the Sky’s celestial jams, …or Wilco indulging their ragged edge. With an experimental streak that occasionally runs the stop sign.” An energetic, and sometimes chaotic live show that’s as dynamic as it is engaging, Wilderness is just as the name implies, not only a quiet place to reflect, but the unknown, the edge, the other side of the line.
Imagine if you put R. Kelly through a banjo. Led by frontman and beard enthusiast Moses Barrett, The Junebugs combine highenergy pop with Pacific Northwest folksy goodness to create a genrebending sound you can kick up your
Performing Sunday 4/12 11:00AM | MIGUEL D’ALONSO Miguel de Alonso plays instrumental Latin Jazz on Guitar and Violin as well as Oud and other Middle Easter instruments like the Baglama and Bouzouki. This multi-instrumentalist and composer begging performing at the age of 12 playing Latin American folk instruments from most regions of the continent. He is an Ethnomusicologist who did his musical studies in Mexico, France, Germany, and Canada. The music he plays is characterized by extensive use of Latin percussion, lively rumba flamenco rhythms, and his own brilliant soloing techniques. In California, he plays with his In Tempo Band for festivals like the Festival of the Arts, the Sawdust Arts Festival, and the Orange County Fair, among others. In Bend, he is a member of the Middle Easter Band Imzady who this time, will accompany him for his appearance at the Bend Spring Fest.
Growing up together in New York forged a bond between these musicians that is evident in their lock-tight pockets and seemingly telepathic stage interactions. From their roots in the East coast neo-soul and hip-hop communities, these friends have forged a signature sound that is steeped in sweet soulfulness and ferocious grooves. Excellent Gentlemen plays danceable, vocal Soul R&B music. Think: 70’s block parties and golden-age hip-hop records. Their music stands for positivity, love, happiness and getting sexy.
9:00PM | STAXX BROTHERS The Staxx Brothers are a high energy American band, hailing from Seattle, Washington, that has spent the last seven years crafting an incredible new sound they’ve branded Hard Ass Soul. It’s quite simply the most danceable and hip shaking brand of rock & roll to hit US streets since Motown left Detroit. Where modern Rock most often has forgotten its Roll, The Staxx Brothers make it back to the juke joint, and take you back to the black church, dragging modern rock by its collar right back to its birthright - with an epic flare that matches any of the classics.
1:00PM | LEVI WEAVER
Levi Weaver is not the kind of artist who likes to sit still for very long. To borrow a line from Willie Nelson, one of his favorite songwriters, he just can’t wait to get on the road again. The multi-instrumental singer/songwriter, who recently packed up his house and bought an RV for his family to travel the country with him in, readily admits to his inherent wanderlust. Weaver’s perpetual on-the-move lifestyle helps fuel the churn of the core concepts explored on his latest and most affecting album, Your Ghost Keeps Finding Me (Rock Ridge Music).
3:00PM | MBRASCATU
Mbrascatu is a fusion of the cobbled streets and cafés of the Old World and the creative melting pot of Portland. The band is a group of talented musicians that draw from very different musical backgrounds to create a unique blend of sounds encompassing European and American roots. Since the formation of the band, back in 2010, Mbrascatu, has performed extensively throughout the Pacific Northwest delighting many at the hottest music venues, outdoor festivals, bars, clubs and local radio stations.

Behind the Curtain CONSTRUCTING A SPRING FESTIVAL About C3 Events and staffing the event
Michelle Roats
FESTIVAL DIRECTOR A veteran leader of C3 Events, Michelle Roats proved to be one of the finest in C3 Events history. She has returned this year to manage the Bend Spring Festival. The festival will be buttoned up and well cared for by Michelle’s talented, highly organized and dynamic ways.
Lee Perry-Gibbens
OPERATIONS DIRECTOR Owner of the event planning/talent purchasing /consulting firm “Event-Theory,” Lee comes to the Spring Festival as the single most experienced event logistics and operations planning coordinator in Central Oregon. Lee has previously worked with Lay it Out Events and C3 Events for more than 15 years.
Jim Cone
CONSCIOUS LIVING SHOWCASE DIRECTOR Jim launched this grass roots street dedicated to non-profits, mom and pop businesses, green living, and healthy lifestyles four seasons ago. It’s all about community. Jim’s history in green building, and owning his own steel construction company has made him a massive asset for our team.
Kilee Johnson
Leann Schoales
F
or 25 years, C3 Events has been a different sort of contractor, building community in Central Oregon. Company founder, Cameron Clark, studied the notion of “community” while working on his masters degree at the University of Redlands. While there he discovered that connection led to care; that moving folks with beauty prompted more curation of beauty. And so, in 1990, he moved to Central Oregon and brought these same intentions to Bend! C3 founded Munch and Music in 1991, and added the Bend Spring, Summer and Fall Festivals shortly thereafter. In addition C3 Events has produced Peak Summer Nights at the Athletic Club of Bend, Munch and Movies, the Woodland Park Zoo Concerts (in Seattle), Maya Angelou, the Hullabaloo and the Saturday Farmers’ Market (our favorite new event). Building community requires heavy lifting. Our team, this weekend will be asked to defy impossible odds (more than once). Here’s a bit about each of these lovely community builders...
EVENT LEAD/FOOD VENDOR COORDINATOR Leann was perhaps, the most talented event technician in C3’s history. She has the perfect knack for design and event aesthetic. You’ll find Leann onsite at the festival ensuring details are covered and coordinating with our food vendors.
Melissa King
SPIRIT AND SPONSORSHIP SALES Melissa has combined her extensive experience in sales and food and beverage to become one of the brightest stars in the C3 Events hemisphere. Melissa’s ethic of care and love of events have led her to her current roles in sponsorship and beverage sales and event lead management.
Tiffany Clark
ART AND SOUL Tiffany Clark comes from the hospitality industry, where most recently she served as the Vice President of Marketing for Pronghorn Properties. She is a distiller of soul, a creator of beauty. Everything she touches (artist coordination, general counsel, event development) turns to gold.
Cameron Clark
ADA COMPLIANCE DIRECTOR As a community minded advocate for health and wellness, and as a lovely human being, Kilee is perfectly suited to fill the role of C3 Events ADA liaison. Additionally, Kilee will be available to help with any questions or concerns for event attendees.
OWNER, MEDDLER Cameron is a cancer survivor who finds his greatest joy in spending time with his daughters Cecilia Grace (9) and LilianaKayce-Marie (6). He has been producing award winning events since 1984 (30 years). He is passionate about building community and looks forward to a great 2015 season.
Tracy Delperdang
FINE ARTIST COORDINATOR Tracy is a seasoned event professional with more than 15 years of related experience in event coordination and non-profit fundraising. As an arts and culture enthusiast, Tracy coordinates the fine artist section of the Bend Spring Festival.

Every now and then, I find myself pondering over those anti-narcotics commercials I remember seeing as a kid—you know, the ones that warned youngsters just how yolky their brains would look, all drugged up. As a mother, I’m now convinced that the campaign slogan had originally read “This is your brain on parenting” before some teenage heroin overdose took broadcasting precedence. Seriously, imagine how many mom/dad brain-eggs are getting cracked and fried each day. I know mine has seen its fair share of scrambling, and my son hasn’t even turned six yet. But parent or nonparent, drugs or no drugs, the brain is a complex place. Which brings me to Bill Allen, a certified hypnotherapist and the owner of BrainPilots (brainpilots.com), a training center in downtown Bend with just one major focus: fitness for the brain. Think about it. We live in a world obsessed with diet regimens and exercise programs—all designed to give us sexier bodies and healthier lifestyles. But what about our brain performance? What about stress management and
mental relaxation? What about increasing our chances for better sleep, better focus, and better behavior? I recently had the opportunity to experience some of this brain-training for myself and its technology system that tracks developing brainwave activity and allows the brain to self-regulate in real time and on its own terms. “In other words,” Allen says, “it makes the brain aware of its own state in the moment, giving true feedback immediately to the central nervous system. It’s a clean interface between the user and the software, and because we don’t manipulate brainwave activity to anchor a state, the brain receives this feedback and then determines what the next step should be.” And this natural, noninvasive process requires nothing more than sitting in a cozy chair, attaching a few signal-reading sensors to your scalp and ear, and relaxing to the sounds of worldly music. And yes—safe for the kiddos, too. If you think about a child’s brain (“We learned about giraffes at school today. Hey Mom, did you know that my favorite kind of ice cream is—oooh look, a tiny rock!”), the inability to focus and maintain control can eventually become a major burden in a child’s life. “Remember: this is not treatment; this is training,” says Allen, who earned his BA in Psychology from California State University, Fullerton. “By making the brain aware of its current state—and doing so below conscious awareness—the training is passive, which means anyone can do it.” Go ahead, give your and your child’s brain a workout…it really does build the core muscles. Fire away!

Nah, I’m Gonna Stay
Sunny Yoga Kitchen gives a reason to loiter for lunch BY PHIL BUSSE
SUNNY YOGA KITCHEN IS PROOF POSITIVE THAT HEALTHY CAN ALSO BE TASTY.
Open for little more than a year, Sunny Yoga Kitchen is pretty much what its name promises: A restaurant that doubles as a yoga studio—or vice versa, inverse pose, yin yang. Surprisingly, though, the front room—a small and tidy space with several tables—does not have much natural light, as the name might indicate. But, walking in on a recent Tuesday afternoon, it was quickly apparent that the name may be a more metaphysical reference, as co-owner Courtney Hynum greeted us from behind a small, blond-wood counter with infectious good humor, and the space bustled with chatter and a Danger Mouse soundtrack. The yoga space, though, is not immediately apparent (as all good truths are somewhat hidden, yes, Buddha?). Past the front room is a charming and spacious room with walls sparsely adorned with large works of colorful abstract art, and the only indication that the space might double as a yoga studio is a small statue of the Buddha on one wall. Tables hinge on the wall, and are opened or closed depending on whether class is in session or not. The menu itself is simple, with basics like crepes, bowls, and three choices of sandwiches—and within those basic categories there is a great deal of variety, from banh mi, to a chicken curry sandwich, to a muffaletta—a salami, ham, onion and provolone sandwich that
would seem more at place in a New York deli than a health center. The menu also strays from some common pitfalls of health food stores, and offers Bloody Marys and a decent selection of beers. (In a nod to the restaurant’s other services, the beer selection includes Dogfish Head’s Namaste.) The banh mi, a traditional Vietnamese sandwich, also strays a bit, but not too far, from its customary definition, and is served not on French bread but on a crispy roll from Sparrow Bakery, and is a bit light on cilantro, normally the defining fresh flavor for the sandwich, and a bit heavier on a spicy sauce. The Sunny Bowl is a bit more “traditional” than what one might expect at a yoga studio-restaurant; filled with spinach and kale, and an undertone of curry Indian spices. The Summit Bowl follows the adage that sometimes less is more, and is a satisfyingly simple option that includes jasmine rice, spinach, and is doused with “Sunny sauce,” a sort of coconut yellow curry. Although it took our staff a whole year to visit Sunny Yoga Kitchen, we certainly will return in less time than that.

When 10 Barrel Brewing’s brewpub location in Portland’s Pearl District opened on March 16, the question wasn’t whether it would attract a crowd; it was more like how long it’d be until the wait for tables extended past an hour. A recent visit to 10 Barrel’s third brewpub location found the place—a smidge bigger than Bend’s, though not much—mobbed. Every table, stool, and space on the long communal tables near the bar was occupied, with the pub’s 20 taps flowing nonstop, and pizzas and sandwiches flying left and right. Just like the home office, in other words, although the industrial wood-and-metal interior is far more Portland hip than the original’s homey neighborhood feel. (The indoor crowds should thin out a bit once the rooftop beer garden opens up, an addition that’s been delayed until summer-ish.) Just like the Boise location, 10 Barrel PDX has an onsite brewing system, this one operated by former Pelican Pub brewer Whitney Burnside. Two Portland-made brews are on tap now: Spring Blossom, a crisp and well-executed pale, and Bam Bam, a roasty, espresso-tinged stout made with a pair of Belgian yeasts that add fetching fruity flavors for an extremely memorable package. While not brewed onsite, the bar also debuted Strawberry Crush last weekend, latest in research and development brewer Tonya Cornett’s line of fruit-infused Berliner weisses—and Lord, hopefully they saved a keg for Bend, because it’ll be irresistible come summertime. With this opening, the Pearl now has five enormous brewery sites—this one, Deschutes, Rogue, BridgePort, and Fat Head’s—within walking distance of each other, to say nothing of the dozens and dozens of other breweries and beer bars in town. But so far, at least, they’re all still attracting huge crowds, symbolizing how much beer has become part of the standard experience for Portlanders and visitors. Where will it all end? Probably not with 10 Barrel, anyway.

Redmond High examines parallels with The Laramie Project BY KELSEY ROOK
When Matthew Shepard was kidnapped, tortured, and bound to a fence post outside of Laramie, Wyoming, on a freezing night in October 1998, today’s teenagers were either yet unborn or still in diapers. The 21-yearold’s death and the trial that followed attracted worldwide media interest and emboldened the nation to fight bigotry and hatred. Nearly 17 years later, Shepard continues to serve as an emblem for the LGBT community—as well as the young thespians at Redmond High School, who are preparing to bring the story of his death to their auditorium stage. Over two weekends in April, The Panther Theatre Company at Redmond High School will stage The Laramie Project, a play written about the aftermath of the young gay man’s death by Moises Kaufman and members of the Tectonic Theater Project. Created from a year’s worth of interviews conducted by Tectonic in the town of Laramie, the play is a time capsule chronicling the reactions of a small college town gripped by the brutal hate crime. It’s one of the most preformed plays in the country, and has garnered acclaim, as well as criticism, for its message of combating homophobia. Hilda Beltran-Wagner is the director of the drama program at Redmond High School and is providing technical direction for The Laramie Project. She was looking to stage a serious dramatic play—the last one, Grapes of Wrath, was performed four years ago—when the program’s assistant director Rachel Sarrett suggested this production. “Sarrett was the brain behind proposing Laramie, and when she suggested it, it just felt right,” said Beltran-Wagner. “Our community is really a lot like Laramie, demographically…if we are going to be rigorous, relevant, and inclusive—and I borrow all these terms from our mission—it seems to me that we have to have a vision that includes this kind of material.” As Beltran-Wagner explained, the Redmond School District’s stated mission is to “ensure all stakeholders feel valued and respected.” According to Sarrett, the creative force behind Laramie and the play’s director, the stakeholders’ response to her “brainchild” was overwhelmingly positive. “I thought that since we serve a somewhat conservative community, gaining acceptance for the opportunity to perform this material would be a struggle, but in reality, it’s been nothing but support from our administration, faculty, and parents,” said Sarrett. The play’s challenging structure—more than 80 citizen “characters” will be portrayed by just 15 actors—gave the young troupe opportunities to strengthen their acting chops while examining issues such as bullying, violence, homophobia, and community identity. “Prior to auditions, I worried about teenagers’ ability to access the complex emotions in this script—how can a kid know what this town went through?” said Sarrett. “But they get it…the message in the Laramie Project is so universal; kids know what hate looks like.”
REDMOND HIGH TACKLES TOUGH AND TIMELY MATERIAL WITH THE LARAMIE PROJECT.
The production has inspired students outside of the drama program as well; a group of RHS Leadership students are creating an installation connecting bullying to hate crimes. For the school’s principle, Anthony Pupo, the script had current-event implications in the climate of violence and confusion gripping communities in the wake of recent police shootings. “His first reaction was to connect it with what’s been going on in Ferguson,” said Beltran-Wagner. “I said, ‘It’s controversial’ and he said, ‘It’s relevant.’” To stage Laramie, the high school’s lofty large-capacity auditorium has been transformed into a 72-seat black box theater, creating a stark intimacy and “anyplace” quality to the play that gives events that transpired more than 16 years ago and a thousand miles away relevance to the audience.
“For me, it’s really exciting when we get students to see that theater is less about jazz hands than it is about heart,” said Beltran-Wagner. “This is what theater can do; it’s what we can do. There’s nothing more inspiring than that.” “This play, ultimately, is about what it means to be a human being, what it means to live in a community with people of various faiths, backgrounds, and experiences,” said Sarrett. “High schools are rife with judgment, and I hope that after viewing the play, our students and community get closer to understanding that we’re all in this together.” The Laramie Project 7 pm Friday & Saturday, April 10 & 11, 17 & 18 Redmond High School, 675 SW Rimrock Way $10 adults, $5 students
In case you didn’t already know, upcycling is quite a thing right now. Theoretically, artists have been creatively reusing objects and turning them into art for decades—Marcel Duchamp and the Dadists were doing it when they created their “ready-made” art in the early 1900s, and Robert Rauschenberg was incorporating trash into his mid-century collages way before it was cool. But it seems that within the last decade or so, “upcycling” has taken over a good chunk of the art scene—a trend which I find both visually and politically pleasing. This weekend, I’ll be hitting the Northwest Crossing neighborhood’s Spring Fest, which this year is showcasing upcycled art and the kind of “green living” that I assume has more to do with energy efficiency and less to do with Bend’s cannabis connoisseurship. Northwest Crossing is a neighborhood “committed to sustainability,” a somewhat fuzzy concept brought more into focus at Sara Bella Upcycled, where owner Sara Wiener upcycles plastic bags and wrappers into wearable art—trashion, if you will. “Our business model specifically revolves around using trash,” said Wiener. “We make art for change and to educate, reusing hundreds of bags daily, saving them from the landfill.” This weekend, the neighborhood’s “Fine Artist Promenade” will be plush with upcyled art from more than 30 local and regional artists. Bend artist Nicholas Vracin, whose Nomad Leather studio creates handmade leather accessories for the modern nomad (I’m eyeing that beer holster on his Etsy), uses vintage tools and upcycled leather to create functional art. Portlander Kristin Spear of Mossy Root Designs will showcase her one-of-kind recycled sweater fashions. Also in the upcycled fibers game is Eugene artist Tylar Merrill, whose whimsical and wearable styles are cozy and environmentally conscious. Local jeweler Cynthia Brown-Grochowski will be selling her bicycle spoke and gemstone statement bracelets. Two other must-see booths: One from Scott Allen, of Relic Workshop, who won first place in the High Desert Design Council’s 2014 Design Competition in the Re-purpose/Up-cycle category; and, another from artist Scott Lundquist who is making the trip from Emmett, Idaho, to show his upcyled art, which he creates from reclaimed and salvaged materials from architectural, industrial, and automotive sources. “We try to salvage as much material as possible before it goes to the landfill,” said Lundquist. “We use old windows and doors, molding, glass, hardware, stove parts, bed frames, barn wood, railings, and many other materials that we incorporated into the design and assembly of our artwork.”

Black, White, and Read All Over
T. Geronimo Johnson’s latest takes on race, class, and Berkeley BY CHRISTIE HINRICHS
PHOTO BY ELIZABETH R. COWAN.
The first chapter of Welcome to Braggsville seethes with the barely-restrained energy of a young man standing on the threshold of his own life. D’Aron Davenport rattles off his many nicknames as a way of piecing together a childhood spent as a white, working class know-it-all in the quirky depths of the Georgian South. In the small town of Braggsville, where locals claim “every wrong turn is a dead end,” D’Aron has many claims to fame but no real identity. It’s not until a scholarship lands him at UC Berkeley—or Berzerkely, as he discovers the community around Cal is known—that he begins to cobble together selfhood as a defense against what his liberal-guilt-ridden professors deem a tendency toward essentialism (D’Aron is the Southern Kid in class, and little else). Shell-shocked and slacking on his studies, D’Aron forms an unlikely alliance with three Cal classmates: a girl from Iowa who claims to be Native American and takes herself far too seriously; a thoughtful black kid from inner city Chicago; and a flamboyant teen from San
Francisco, who claims to be the “next Lenny Bruce Lee, Kung Fu Comedian.” The hapless group, which dubs itself the “4 Little Indians,” enrolls in “American History X, Y and Z: Alternative Perspectives,” a class that has discussion circles rather than curriculum. D’Aron lets slip one day that his hometown of Braggsville hosts a Civil War reenactment every year called “Patriot Days,” and the 4 Little Indians decide it is their duty to teach D’Aron’s backward friends, family, and neighbors a lesson. Via “performative intervention,” they scheme to storm the small Southern town, in what they imagine will be an eye-opening and boundary-smashing display—and which, unsurprisingly, ends up an unmitigated disaster. What’s interesting here is the level of absurdity to which Johnson is willing to take his characters, on both sides of the red/blue cultural divide. On one hand, the smug entitlement of the Berzerkly intelligentsia; on the other, the militant anti-intellectual rednecks of the Deep South. Johnson is incredibly even-handed in his treatment of both factions—despite his own elite education (he holds an MA from UC Berkeley, and an MFA from Iowa Writer’s Workshop, which most regard as the best creative writing program in the country). The risk Johnson takes here is by focusing so intensely on the extremes—which are admittedly terrific fodder for the comedic mastery he wields—those of us that exist somewhere in between are left with little to relate to. However, for the majority of his readers, Johnson will earn enthusiastic fans for the plucky, whip-smart narrative, and the best display of identify politics in action that we’ve seen since Tom Wolfe. It’s probably one of the most entertaining books (thoroughly enjoyable, despite the heavy handed irony) that I’ve read this year. Keep an eye out around town for Geronimo (what a name!): He’s been hired to teach in the OSU-Cascades Low Residency MFA program this summer.

BMX racing returns to Redmond BY JP SCHLICK
PHOTO BY USA BMX.
In the ‘70s, riding dirt bikes was an informal sport, jumping Huffy bikes off mounds in backyards and tearing Schwinn Sting-Rays through hiking paths (certainly a precursor to mountain biking for thousands of kids). But even though the sport had formally arrived in America in 1969, when a group of teenagers in West LA started racing their pedal bikes on a track normally reserved for motorcross bikes, BMX bike racing did not instantly become a national obsession, like, say, skateboarding. Yet, in more recent decades, BMX has exploded as a major sport. Infused with the spirit of motorcross racing—and even adopting much of the language to describe various rac-

es and terrain—the sport has especially come of age in the past several years, with events like the BMX Great NW Nationals this weekend at the Expo Center in Redmond drawing big crowds and hordes of participants. And, it is easy to understand why. BMX races pull in the appeal of explosive and fast competitions, as compact in its intensity as drag racing or 200-meter running sprints. (Most races take about 40 seconds to one minute; indoor races, like this weekend, are challenging but quick 900-foot tracks.) And, moreover, with several races starting simultaneously and bounding through mounds and berms, BMX races also showcase the excitement of
sports like Sochi Olympic much-talked about snow cross, which features unpredictability in that front-runners can wipe out and open the field. Really, anyone can win any given race. Perhaps the only surprise is that it took until 1998 for BMX to be anointed as an Olympic medal sport. Yet, even with its rapidly increasing popularity, organizers and participants confirm that the sport still has a laidback, all comers welcome family feeling.

GO HERE! These Boots Are Made for Hiking BY CORBIN GENTZLER
There are so many things about spring in Central Oregon to love. Not the least of them is the unveiling of the Deschutes Land Trust free hike schedule. For over a decade, the Deschutes Land Trust has worked tirelessly to conserve thousands of acres of vitally important lands in Central Oregon. DLT lands serve as living natural history museums of our area, each of which possess historical, social, and ecological characteristics unique to this place we call home. DLT hikes are low key nature walks through DLT lands, led by local naturalists, highlighting the best of what these lands offer us. There are 110 hikes scheduled for the 2015 season. Here’s two not to be missed in April:

Lee at Appomattox Since we live in a time where gray areas are celebrated, why not explore a time where everything seemed fairly black and white? The film Lee at Appomattox is based on Tom Dugan’s one-man show Robert E. Lee: Shades of Gray, with Dugan playing the title role of a man who was against slavery and repulsed by war. This takes place on April 9, 1865, the day that Lee surrendered to Grant and the Civil War ended, and delving deep into the mindset of a man supposedly misunderstood by history. The film coincides with the 150th anniversary of the end of the Civil War. Friday, April 10, 7 pm. Tower Theater. 835 NW Wall St. $13-$23

Lynn Harrell & Bach Film Screening Director John Forsen (Violin Masters: Two Gentlemen of Cremona) returns to Central Oregon with a screening of his newest film, Lynn Harrell Bach Cello Suites. What is really incredible here is that Harrell performs the first two Bach Cell Suites on a Stradivari instrument made in 1713 valued at over 20 million dollars. I would be so nervous touching something worth so much money that I would be lucky to get through the first Cello Suite, let alone two of them. Admission also includes a meet and greet with John Forsen before the screening and a Q&A directly after. Part of the High Desert Chamber Music Spotlight Series. Saturday, April 11, 7:30 pm.

Cavalia is a mixture of equestrian and performing arts, multimedia, special effects, and acrobatics ariel stunts and dance. It’s Cirque with horses, yo! Anyway, Odysseo is set under a 38-meter high white big top and has more than 70 horses, a lake that appears from nowhere, and all kinds of crazy, mind-blowing visuals for the horse loving circus enthusiast in you.

A police droid is stolen by revolutionaries (played in part by the members of Die Antwoord) and reprogramed to feel human emotion. Naturally, the government fears and hates Chappie, and sets about to destroy the robot and everything it stands for. Pine Theater

CINDERELLA A live-action retelling of the Disney classic directed by Shakespearean master Kenneth Branagh. Disney will be able to print money pretty soon once the next Star Wars movie comes out, so this version of Cinderella must exist just to remind people about the cartoon. Either way, this seems pointless and get the hell off my lawn. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House
DANNY COLLINS Danny Collins tells the story of Danny Collins, an aging rocker played by aging actor Al Pacino. After basically giving up on the music business, Collins finds an undelivered letter to him from John Lennon, which sends him on a spiritual journey to rediscover his family, his love of music and women, and all the boring shit these movies are filled with. As long as this movie wakes Pacino up and puts some fire in his belly for acting, then it has my vote. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX
THE DIVERGENT SERIES: INSURGENT Even if you try to give Divergent (and its sequels) the benefit of the doubt that they aren’t just Hunger Games rip-offs, by the time you reach the end of the first book your optimism will be shredded. While Shailene Woodley is a fine actress, the Teen Post-Apocalyptic genre hits the wall pretty hard here and flails every which way with its pat ideas about freedom, individuality, and painfully generic love. In this installment the factions start going to war and Kate Winslet cashes extra paychecks. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX DO YOU BELIEVE? From the makers of God’s Not Dead, and starring Samwise Gamgee, Jefferson from Married With Children, The Boz, and some asshole named Schwayze, comes the next level of christian entertainment. A pastor’s faith is tested when he watches a street preacher explode with faith he cannot match. This film’s hermetically sealed message should be easily consumed by the choir to which it is preaching. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX
FURIOUS 7 While I wouldn’t stand up for the first four films in this franchise, Fast Five and Fast and Furious Six are both smorgasbords of explosions and jaw-dropping stunts, worthy of being mentioned alongside the best action films of the last 15 years. Furious 7 pits Paul Walker (in his final screen role), Vin Diesel, Mr. The Rock and family against a pissed off Jason Statham. Expect cars flying through the air, Mr. The Rock with a mini-gun, and Statham kicking our heroes in their faces. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Pine Theater, Redmond Theatre, Sisters Movie House
GET HARD Will Ferrell is a white collar criminal headed to San Quentin and Kevin Hart is the guy he hires to train him how to be tough for prison. Since Hart has never been to prison and Ferrell only hires him because he’s black, I’m assuming mildly racist hijinks will ensue. With some of the writers behind the brilliant Key and Peele scripting, this could be a return to form for Ferrell and the vehicle Hart needs to show how funny he can be when not improvising.

HOME Home is the new film from DreamWorks Animation, home to How to Train Your Dragon, Kung-Fu Panda, and Shrek One through Fifty. This one tells the story of an alien (voiced by The Best Amigo Steve Martin) whose race is hiding from their mortal enemy on Earth, which they decide to invade. Obviously, wacky hi-jinks ensure because Jim Parsons is also part of the voice cast and that man has two modes: wacky and faux-
nerdy. If they exterminate the human race by accident, then this should be a children’s classic.

IT FOLLOWS Critically acclaimed and scary as hell, It Follows creates a new urban legend for the ages. After having sex with a near stranger, a teenage girl starts feeling like she’s always being followed by some dark and shadowy force. Even without the subtext and thematic weight, the film is still creepy and the finest horror film of the last few years. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX JUPITER ASCENDING From the creators of The Matrix Trilogy and the criminally underrated masterpiece Cloud Atlas. Jupiter Ascending is either poised to be this year’s sleeper sci-fi hit or a flop the size of Johnny Depp’s Mortdecai mustache. Mila Kunis plays Jupiter Jones, an unlucky Earth janitor who is actually space royalty and must be protected by Channing Tatum’s half albino, half wolf warrior Caine Wise. If this film is half as good as The Fifth Element, it will be much better than most sci-fi action releases of the last few years. St.Francis Theater KINGSMAN: THE SECRET SERVICE The new film from the madcap bastard behind Layer Cake, Stardust, and X-Men: First Class, Matthew Vaughn. Kingsman has Colin Firth using a bulletproof umbrella and beating a bunch of ass while never breaking a sweat. It also has Samuel L. Jackson dressing like Jay-Z, talking with a lisp and hellbent on world domination. I mean, sure, this could be one of the worst movies ever made, but it won’t be. It will be gloriously, batshit insane. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX
MR. TURNER Mr. Turner tells the story of J.M.W. Turner, the controversial and revolutionary painter. Following him to brothels, historical meetings, and his sexual relationship with his housekeeper, this biopic skips the typical notes of the average biography and delves deeper into the psychology of a deeply flawed but brilliant man. With some of the finest cinematography and costume design of the year, Mr. Turner will please historical drama fans as well as those with an artist’s eye. Tin Pan

STILL ALICE Julianne Moore won an Oscar for her portrayal of Alice Howland, a linguistics professor who starts forgetting words due to early-onset Alzheimer’s. Oscar voters love an actor taking on a debilitating disease and Moore has been snubbed a few times in the past, so the stars aligned this year to give her the golden dude. Tin Pan Theater UNFINISHED BUSINESS Vince Vaughn, Tom Wilkinson, and Dave Franco travel to Europe to close a business deal and everything goes horribly wrong. Vince Vaughn is easy to pick on, but the combination of those actors is an inspired one. Although, the current 12% rating on Rotten Tomatoes doesn’t inspire much of anything. St.Francis Theater

I ♥ TELEVISION
Hat Trick BY WM.™ STEVEN HUMPHREY
One of the great regrets of my life is that I look like an idiot wearing a hat. I JUST DON’T LOOK GOOD IN THEM!! And believe me, I’ve tried on every type of hat: fedora hats, beret hats, pork pie hats, derby hats, cowboy hats, top hats, baseball hats, fez hats, pillbox hats, turban hats, Viking hats…but no matter what hat I try on, I look like the most awful a-hole on the planet. But the good news is, you look dumb in hats, too. In fact, you look nearly as bad as I do—but no one wants to say it to your face, because they’re afraid someone will tell them they look terrible in hats. (Which they do.) The only person in the world who doesn’t look terrible in a hat? Raylan Givens from the series “Justified”—which sadly concludes this week (FX, Tues., April 14, 10 pm). NOOOOO!!! Guys, I LOVE me some “Justified,” which is one of the best, unsung series on television. Why? TWO REASONS: a) “Justified” is a great modern TV Western (even though it’s set in Kentucky…more on that later), and b) Raylan Givens hat. In the show, Raylan (played to near-perfection by Timothy Olyphant) is a U.S. marshal who’s stationed in the hillbilly haven of Harlen County, Kentucky, and insists on wearing a Stetson—the classic American cowboy hat. Now it should be noted that on Timothy Olyphant, a Stetson looks like it was genetically modified to sit perfectly on his head. Conversely, when I try on a Stetson, it immediately shape-shifts into one of those really tall idiot hats that Pharrell wears. (Seriously, Pharrell… STOP IT.) Anyway, that gorgeous Stetson has become an essential character in the series; looking fantastic, but also grounding “Justified” in the tropes of Western movie classics such as Rio Bravo, High Noon, or Winchester ’73. Here are the basics: Based on a short story by Elmore Leonard, Raylan was born and

raised in Harlan, but escaped the coalmines to become a US marshal in Miami, where he becomes famous for his fugitive-catching ability and quickdraw shooting style. After one particularly controversial shooting, Raylan is transferred (read: condemned) to Harlan—but as it turns out, his in-depth knowledge of the area and hillbilly citizenry make him particularly adept at his job…which sometimes includes shooting people. (But he’s always polite about it, so there’s that!) However! While Raylan’s laconic, stonecold demeanor goes a long way, “Justified” is a next-level show thanks to its amazing cast. In particular there’s Boyd Crowder (Walter Goggins, who is sooooo good), a childhood pal of Raylan who goes wildly astray, starting out as a white supremacist bank robber who eventually turns to religion and later, the drug trade. Distorted mirror images of each other, Raylan and Boyd have been crossing the double yellow lines of morality since the beginning (working against and with each other)—but in this, the sixth and final season, there’s only one destination where this highway can end: in a series-ending showdown. So don’t just sit there! Binge watch all six seasons of “Justified”—because after Raylan Givens is gone, no one (especially ME) will ever wear that hat again. My Twitter wears a propeller beanie. @WmSteveHumphrey

ASTROLOGY ARIES (March 21-April 19): Uitwaaien is a
Dutch word that means to go out for a stroll in windy weather simply because it’s exhilarating. I don’t know any language that has parallel terms for running in the rain for the dizzy joy of it, or dancing through a meadow in the dark because it’s such nonsensical fun, or singing at full volume while riding alone in an elevator in the mad-happy quest to purge your tension. But in the coming weeks, you don’t need to describe or explain experiences like this; you just need to do them. Experiment with giving your instinctive need for exuberance lots of room to play.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): When he was in his fifties, French painter Claude Monet finally achieved financial success. He used his new riches to buy a house and land, then hired gardeners to help him make a pond full of water lilies. For the first time in his life, he began to paint water lilies. During the next 30 years, they were his obsession and his specialty. He made them a central feature of 250 canvases, which now serve as one of his signature contributions to art history. “I planted my water lilies for pleasure,” he said. “I cultivated them without thinking of painting them. And then suddenly, I had the revelation of the magic of my pond.” I regard the imminent future as a good time for you to do something similar, Gemini: Create or find a source of beauty that will stimulate your sense of wonder and fuel your passion to express yourself for a long time.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Your nasty, nagging little demon isn’t nasty or nagging any more. It’s not doing what demons are supposed to do. It’s confused, haggard, and ineffective. I almost feel sorry for the thing. It is barely even keeping you awake at night, and its ability to motivate you through fear is at an all-time low. Here’s what I suggest: Now, when the demon’s strength is waning and its hold on you is weak, you should break up with it for good. Perform an ultimate, non-reversible exorcism. Buy it a one-way bus ticket to the wasteland and say goodbye forever.

do in life is based on fear, especially love,” said Cancerian comedian Mel Brooks. Although he was joking, he was also quite serious. More often than we like to admit, desperation infects our quest to be cared for. Our decisions about love may be motivated by a dread of loneliness. We worry about whether we are worthy of getting the help and support we need. It’s a fundamental human problem, so there’s no reason to be ashamed if you have this tendency yourself. Having said that, I’m happy to report that you now have the necessary power to overcome this tendency. You will be able to summon tremendous courage as you revise and refine your relationship with love. It’s time to disappear the fear.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Do you ever feel reverence and awe, Leo? Are there times when you spontaneously yearn to engage in acts of worship? Is there anyone or anything that evokes your admiration, humility, and gratitude? The coming weeks will be a good time to seek out experiences like these. According to my reading of the astrological omens, you will get tender jolts of transformational inspiration if you blend yourself with a sublime force that you trust and respect.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): A lot has happened since you were . . . uh . . . indisposed. You’ve missed out on several plot twists. The circle has been broken, repaired, broken again, and partially repaired. Rumors have been flying, allegiances have been shifting, and riddles 1.)

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): The Guerrilla Girls are a group of prankster activists who use humor to expose sexism and racism in the art world. Every so often they take a “weenie count” at New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art. During their first survey in 1989, they found that five percent of the artists who had work hanging in the galleries were women, while 85 percent of the nudes depicted in the paintings were women. More recently, in 2012, their weenie count revealed that four percent of the artists were female, but 76 percent of the naked people in the paintings were female. The coming week would be a good time for you to take a weenie count in your own sphere, Scorpio. Conditions are more favorable than usual to call attention to gender disparities, and to initiate corrective action. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): The En-
glish term “engine” refers primarily to a machine that transforms energy into mechanical power. But its roots are in the Old French word engin, which meant skill or wit, and in the Latin word ingenium, defined as “inborn talent.” I’d like to borrow the original meanings to devise your horoscope this week. According to my reading of the astrological omens, your “engine” is unusually strong right now, which means that your cultivated skills and innate talents are functioning at peak levels. I suggest you make intensive use of them to produce maximum amounts of energy and gather more of the clout you’d love to wield.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19):
What I’m about to say is not a hard scientific fact, but it is a rigorous poetic fable. You don’t need to go to the mountain, because the mountain is willing and able to come to you. But will it actually come to you? Yes, but only if you meet two conditions. The mountain will pick itself up and move all the way to where you are if you make a lot of room for it and if you are prepared to work with the changes its arrival will bring.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): If you were a four-year-old, cookies might be a valuable treasure to you. Given a choice between a bowl of stir-fried organic vegetables and a plate full of chocolate coconut macaroons, you’d probably choose the macaroons. For that matter, if you were four years old and were asked to decide between getting a pile of macaroons and a free vacation to Bali or an original painting by Matisse or a personal horoscope reading from the world’s greatest astrologer, you’d also opt for the cookies. But since you’re a grownup, your list of priorities is screwed on straight, right? You would never get distracted by a sugary, transitory treat that would cause you to ignore a more nourishing and long-lasting pleasure. Right? PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): On June 23, 1917,
Babe Ruth was the starting pitcher for the Boston Red Sox in a Major League Baseball game against the Washington Senators. After the first batter drew a walk, Ruth got upset with the home plate umpire and punched him in the head. Ejected! Banished! The Babe had to be dragged off the field by the cops. The new pitcher was Ernie Shore. He proceeded to pitch a perfect game, allowing no further Washington player to reach base in all nine innings. In the coming weeks, Pisces, I see you as having the potential to duplicate Ernie Shore’s performance in your own sphere. Coming in as a replacement, you will excel. Chosen as a substitute, you will outdo the original.

My mom left when I was young, and my former husband left me, too. Maybe because of this, I’ve noticed that I’m quick to assume that any man I’m seeing is ditching me. In the early stages of dating, if there’s a lag in calling or texting me back, I’ll lash out—block the guy on Facebook and delete him from my phone—only to feel stupid when I learn that his phone battery died or he was already asleep. How do I stop doing this? It’s AMY ALKON totally unconscious in the moment. —Abandonment Issues You seem to be turning your past—getting ditched by those closest to you—into prophecy. This isn’t surprising. British psychoanalyst John Bowlby had a theory that our “attachment style”—the way we relate in close relationships—stems from how attuned and responsive our mother was to our needs for comforting when we were infants. If your primary caregiver was consistently there for you as an infant, you end up “securely attached,” meaning that you tend to feel that you can count on others to be there for you when you need them. However, attachment history isn’t the whole story. Genes, temperament, childhood environment, and other factors also shape how we relate. And though research finds that securely attached children seem likely to end up securely attached grown-ups, adult shifts in attachment style are common. Not going all Full Metal Jackie in the moment takes preplanning—pledging to yourself to step back and run suspicious-seeming situations through the reason department. A technique called “cognitive reappraisal” seems to help. This involves dialing down your emotional response by changing the meaning some situation has for you. Instead of thinking “I know he’s left me!” when an hour goes by without a text back, reframe his absence in a positive light. For example, “He’s out getting me flowers.” You don’t have to know that this explanation is true. It just needs to be positive and possible. How secure you feel can also be transformed by whom you’re with. The best partner to help you shift out of auto-panic is one who is loving and caring and has a more “secure” attachment style. With some consistent work and the right guy, you could someday get to the point where absence really does make your heart “grow fonder”—instead of making it get out a tiny hammer and wood strips to construct an itsy-bitsy coffin for your relationship.

NEWS QUIRKS CURSES, FOILED AGAIN
Joey Patterson, 22, eluded Idaho authorities for several months, but then he posted his whereabouts on Facebook. He invited friends to play softball at Armory Softball Field in Caldwell. That’s where police found him. Monitoring social media has led officers to suspects before, Sgt. Joey Hoadley noted, explaining, “Surprisingly, even fugitives can’t keep from updating their Facebook status.” (Associated Press) Police arrested three suspects in a tailgate-stealing spree in Volusia County, Fla., after one of them tried to return one of the nine stolen tailgates to claim a reward. The victim paid the reward but called deputies, who located the trio. (Orlando’s WESH-TV)

Russia unveiled plans to build a high-speed railway and freeway link between London and the United States—via Siberia. State railway boss Vladimir Yakunin, who helped develop the plan, dubbed Trans-Eurasian Belt Development (TERP), promised that the proposed 12,400mile route would “supercharge” global economic growth by connecting Russia’s oil and gas pipelines to the rest of the world.

MISSING THE POINT
A speaker at Australia’s sixth annual National Disability Summit had to be lifted onto the stage because there was no ramp for wheelchairs or mobility scooters. In addition, disabled participants, who each paid $2,000 to attend the privately organized event, were all seated at one table in the back of the room. A blog post by participant Jax Jacki Brown noted that the “accessible toilet was filled with chairs and used as a storage space,” and “the food provided was up on really tall tables” so wheelchair users couldn’t reach it.

California’s death row, the country’s largest, has run out of room. With 738 inmates in lethal limbo since a court invalidated the state’s lethal injection method nearly a decade ago, Gov. Jerry Brown asked the Legislature for more than $3 million to open 100 new cells for condemned men at San Quentin Prison, which already has 715 inmates facing execution. Brown’s request, the Los Angeles Times said, “anticipates an average of 20 new arrivals on death row yearly” without a decrease in the existing condemned population. (NPR)
WHEN GUNS ARE OUTLAWED
Australian authorities charged Erica Leeder, 26,with assaulting a police officer with breast milk. While being searched after her arrest on an unspecified warrant, Leeder was nude from the waist up when she grabbed her own breast and squirted milk onto the forehead, arms and clothes of a female officer conducting the search. The Western Australia Police Union said the assault charge was partially due to the possibility of the breast milk’s spreading disease. (United Press International) When Patricia Leece, 61, answered a knock at her door in Lexington, Ky., stranger Ashley Sies, 31, pushed her way in and began choking Leece with a bra. After a 20-minute struggle, Leece said she managed to knock Sies unconscious by hitting her on the head with a ceramic chicken. (Lexington’s WKYT-TV)
BOTTOMS ARE TOPS
Luxury toilet seats topped the list of souvenirs brought home by the record number of Chinese tourists who celebrated this lunar new-year holiday in Japan. Costing around $540, the heated seats feature pulsating water jets, deodorizers and even music to cover up the sound of nature’s call. Many offer hands-free lid opening; some are portable and battery-operated. China’s state-run media reported that many of the toilet seats sold in Japan were made in China. (The Economist)

Stephan Woytack, 74, died while attaching a cross to a grave marker at a family plot in Scranton, Pa. The tombstone unexpectedly tilted off its base, toppled and crushed him to death, according to police Officer Andy Kerecman, who called the accident “freaky.” (New York Daily News)
DO AS I SAY, NOT AS I DO
The Rev. Shaun O. Harrison, 55, a Boston educator known for preaching anti-violence to young people, was charged with the execution-style shooting of a 17-year-old boy he had enlisted to sell marijuana for him. Prosecutors said Harrison shot the youth in the back of the head in Roxbury, Mass. The victim survived. Harrison denied charges stemming from the shooting, but Suffolk Assistant District Attorney David Bradley said a surveillance system at a nearby business recorded the episode. (Springfield’s The Republican)
BORDER DISPUTE
Roseanne Di Guilio, who has lived in a house that straddles the New York-Connecticut line since 1997, was surprised to learn that she no longer owns the half of her house on the New York side because her mortgage servicer failed to pay property taxes. Di Guilio said she was never notified, nor did she know that Putnam County foreclosed on the property. Her neighbor, Althea Jacob, bought the 0.2 acres at county auction in 2010 for $275 and now owns Di Guilio’s living room, kitchen and sun porch and part of her bathroom. Jacob never told Di Guilio, who continued paying upkeep and insurance until she found out the truth. Jacob then offered to sell her back the property for $150,000. She lowered her asking price to $35,000, but Di Guilio sought to have the New York Supreme Court overturn the foreclosure. The outcome is uncertain because she didn’t bring the action within the two-year statute of limitations. (Westchester County’s The Journal News)

CANNABIS CORNER
SMOKE SIGNALS They Are a Small Business After All
Probably even a year ago, it would have been jawdropping to see a U.S. Representative and U.S. Senator standing up for marijuana. But on Thursday, April 9, Rep. Earl Blumenauer and Sen. Ron Wyden will present an idea to help make life easier for marijuana growers and retailers. Perhaps one of the most pressing and challenging issues regarding Oregon’s legalization of marijuana is how to make those allowances fit comfortably with federal laws and regulations that outlaw that very practice. Primarily, these are challenges faced by retailers and growers. Like, for example, federally-backed banks cannot accept money earned by the sale of marijuana into their vaults. And, well timed with upcoming tax day, the specific matter that Rep. Blumenauer and Sen. Wyden plan to address is that the current tax law does not allow these state-legal businesses to take business deductions from their federal taxes. As such, Section 280E of the federal tax code potentially adds taxes two to three times the rates for other small retail businesses. The press conference announcing specific plans to present a co-authored bill will be held at 11 am Thursday, April 9. 911 Federal Building, 911 NE 11th Ave. Weed thought you’d like to know.
