OPINION

Registered Republicans Should Support Incumbents for Deschutes County Commission

WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / April 26, 2018 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

Not every primary race sees a challenger entering the race against an incumbent— but in the case of the two open Deschutes County Commissioner seats in the 2018 primary election, each incumbent is facing an opponent. Still, with both those county commission Republican primaries, the challengers bear the burden of proving they can do better than the people currently holding the seat. That’s a tall order.

Deschutes County Commissioner Position 1 primary – Vote Tony DeBone Position 1’s Republican primary candidates include incumbent Tony DeBone, a local business owner who’s held the seat since 2011, and local restauranteur Ed Barbeau. We believe Barbeau does not offer a compelling enough argument in favor of unseating DeBone. Simply running on platform of “change,” as Barbeau is doing, is not enough. DeBone has not been a decidedly dynamic county commissioner, but nor has he been a poor one. DeBone has been fair and even-minded in his leadership—even when dealing with the topic of regulating cannabis, a controversial topic, to be sure. DeBone supports fostering a diverse local economy. Barbeau says he’s in favor of more support for higher education in Deschutes County, and in supporting the local business economy. As these appear to be fundamentally similar views, we see no reason to change commissioners. DeBone was also on the commission when the county elected to lower property taxes in 2017. It was a paltry $20 to $30 reduction per property, but it’s a talking point that is sure to entice Republicans voting in this primary. DeBone has been a good steward of county funds and has handled the regulation of marijuana fairly. Vote Tony DeBone in the May Republican primary.

Deschutes County Commissioner Position 3 primary – Vote Tammy Baney Similar to Barbeau, Patti Adair argues that incumbent Tammy Baney should be unseated simply because she’s held the position too long. In weighing the work Baney has done on behalf of the county versus the “term

limits” rhetoric Adair speaks of, we favor the candidate who has continually done the work. Baney, who was raised in Deschutes County, has been a tireless advocate for the region, both in her work on the commission, as well as her work on the Transportation Commission and the Housing Stability Council in Salem. When it comes to issues important to local people, we can think of no other issues more important than housing stability and transportation—so in that regard, serving on state committees is value-added for Baney, and for the residents of Deschutes County. Adair, the Republican Party chairwoman in Deschutes County, who supported the eastern Oregon Trump campaign in 2016, has a background in accounting and says she aims to cut the county budget to put more money into local people’s pockets—but when asked which aspect of the budget she’d cut, she lacked an informed response. While she said she aims to reduce excessive regulations and fees in the county, Adair says she supports increased regulations and “engineering standards” for cannabis businesses. To be fair, Baney also mentions reducing regulations on her campaign website. Baney has the experience, passion and institutional know-how that will continue to benefit the county. We can find no reason to support Adair, who lacks any committee or other governmental experience, over Baney. During our endorsement interviews, we questioned whether Adair possessed the basic knowledge of what a county commission does, as she tended to speak more about state-level gaffes (including the La Pine overpass and the Cover Oregon website) and schools than she did about the actual issues county commissioners deal with, basing her arguments heavily on anecdotal information. We also appreciate Baney’s commitment to improving the county’s mental health services, and we look forward to hearing what solutions emerge from that effort. Adults— and kids—in Deschutes County deserve a robust effort on that front. In the May Republican primary, vote Tammy Baney for Deschutes County Commissioner. SW

IN RESPONSE TO, “CENTRAL OREGON NOW AND THEN” 4/11 I just wanted to say I enjoyed the article from Scott Stuemke on Where Bend Streets got their names. I had always wondered if Bond and Wall were copies of New York so it was fascinating to read the history. I am still curious of why Bend has so many “Market” streets. I hope that Scott can write on that in a future article since he writes is a very understandable and interesting style. —Penny Brondum

IN RESPONSE TO, “ARE YOU REALLY RECYCLING,” 4/19 This article focuses on recycling from home in Bend from a private home with

access to a recycling bin and is helpful in showing the journey of our waste. However, I’ve often wondered why there are no public recycling bins available for visitors in the public spaces in Bend? This isn’t a Bend specific observation, as many major cities seem to have very thorough residential and commercial programs, but the downtown areas are only equipped with one all-purpose garbage bin, which inevitably becomes a graveyard of iced coffee cups, La Croix cans, and takeaway lunch containers. Any thoughts on the lack of public recycle bins? —Rick Noubal, via Bendsource.com

I saw on TV that the good ol’ boys at the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife have decided to kill two wolves, one of which is pregnant. Once again, King Cattle bullies the natural ecosystem into submission. Understandably, cattle ranchers don’t want wolves living near their herds. They will always prefer cattle to wolves roaming on OUR public lands. But it is not cattle ranchers who are responsible for the degradation and mutation of the natural Western ecosystem to a livestock monoculture. “Where’s the beef?” I once loved eating steaks and hamburgers. Then steaks began tasting dense and chewy, so I stopped eating them. A decade later I phased out hamburgers because they began tasting dense and gloppy. Vegetables are less dense, much easier to chew and digest, and don’t clog arteries with fat molecules. Beef-eating, self-proclaimed environmentalists might want to consider lessening their support of the century-and-a-half-long, complete and unquestioning dominance of Western public lands by King Cattle. Is it possible that otherwise environmentally aware people who claim to prefer wolves over cattle on OUR public lands are in psychological denial concerning their own involvement in sanctioned wolf killing? Environmentally conscious people should evaluate their complicity with the “cattle good, everything else bad” Western Prime Dogma every time they chomp down on a hamburger.

IN RESPONSE TO, “MAY ELECTION ENDORSEMENTS,” ON 4/19 Far from enhancing Bend’s vision and influence, I fear that adoption of Measure 9-118 (direct election of Bend’s mayor) may prove to be counterproductive and damaging to local democracy. Most worrisome is inclusion of the term, “political head of City government” in the ballot title. What does this mean? Where is the definition? Here is an example of what may go wrong: A slim majority of the current Bend City Council supports the city’s Climate Resolution, which is non-binding and entirely dependent on private funding, but, nevertheless, was a hard won victory achieved in large part by young grassroots activists. But, suppose local special interests donate hundreds of thousands of dollars to elect their own hand-picked mayor, who, then, uses his power and influence to ignore the Climate Resolution. This conflicted mayor, then—in opposition to public sentiment—goes on to promote Bend as a city with environmentally unfriendly transportation and construction policies. Sound like something an unchecked “political head” might do? Well, do I need say, “Just look at the White House?” The elected mayor concept is a pale remnant of the original mission and purpose of the charter review committee, whose dedicated citizens stumbled a bit in their bid to roll out what might have been their crowning accomplishment, namely, councilors elected from wards. A mayor elected at large might have made sense in the context of a ward system of government—maybe something for the next charter review effort to consider. While they are at it, I would love to see three additional reforms: (1.) Bend should join the hundreds of cities nationwide that impose strict limits on campaign donations. (2.) Bend should ease up on requirements that make it virtually impossible for citizens to qualify ballot initiatives and to recall public officials. (3.) Bend should have a City Council chamber capacious enough to accommodate

NOT YOUR MOMMAS With the summer season coming around the corner, with hotels, motels, resorts, and vacation rental being a part of many people’s trips, I thought I’d reach out here about something that many people don’t think about, so hopefully I can bring awareness to it. I am currently a house keeper at a small but very popular resort in Oregon. The majority of our guests are from Bend as well as all over Oregon and the west coast. We rent full furnished cabins and houses. Its mind blowing the conditions people leave these very beautiful places in and don’t think about leaving any kind of compensation, apology or anything. That tipping housekeepers isn’t as much of mainstream as it is for food servers, is perplexing, especially when housekeepers do and clean up so much more (and get a glimpse of how people live). In our society it is almost required to tip 10 or up to 20 percent of our bill to servers; we even tip our massage therapists, beauty industry workers, even our dog groomers get tipped, well mine does, but the invisible housekeeper does not for the majority of the time. But when we don’t tip other industry workers we are made to feel like jerks. Of course its anyone choice to tip or not to tip, but if you’re a tipper, just a heads up when you’re staying in places where you know you’re not cleaning up your messes and where the gratuity isn’t included in your bill, maybe leave a little

thank you tip and try to remember all housekeepers are working hard to make it nice for everyone who is on vacation. P.S. I gladly tip all service industry workers. Have a great summer, be tipsy —P. Busch E.J. Pettinger’s

URBAN RENEWAL ON THE TABLE Bend’s City Council votes to move forward on fostering development in the Central District

end’s Central District has historically been a maze of streets that dead end—either at the railroad tracks, or at Greenwood Avenue—but with the City Council’s April 18 decision to support a new Urban Renewal District for the BCD, KorPine, east downtown and inner Highway 20, there’s the potential to better connect downtown and the neighborhoods in the close-in east side. “The Orchard District has conducted surveys for well over 10 years of people who live and work in the neighborhood,” Bill Caram, Orchard District Neighborhood Association’s chair, told the Source in an email. “By far the top priority every single year has been better bike and pedestrian services. Another consistent top priority has been better access to services, [and] we believe that the BCD would help us move forward on both of these priorities. We are very much in favor of the Urban Renewal District designation in order to kick start projects and get things moving faster.” David Welton, a member of Bend YIMBY (Yes, In My Backyard), said he thinks sprucing up the BCD is a great move for a variety of reasons. “Adding housing and businesses there has the potential to be a big economic engine for the City,” Welton said. During the March 21 City Council meeting, Fregonese Associates, a Portland-based urban planning firm, showed the City Council how multi-use and vertical housing developments could work in the BCD and other urban renewal areas. Welton cites an article published at StrongTowns.org, based on Durango, Colo., that shows denser areas to be more productive on a revenue-by-acre basis. “In other words, it’s the financially responsible action to take,” Welton said. “It adds some much needed variety in housing beyond the standard detached single-family residence in an area that’s close to everything else.” Central Oregon Landwatch has been pushing for the City of Bend to initiate urban renewal for these areas—especially the BCD—for some time. They created a BCD Initiative Facebook page to get community participation at the city level. “This is huge news and a big step toward the BCD’s transformation into a healthy, vibrant, and resilient mixed use neighborhood with safe connections between east and west Bend,” Moey Newbold, COLW’s director of urban planning, wrote in a press release. “We are excited, we think that the City Council is taking the right step on creating urban renewal in the BCD and nearby opportunity areas,” Newbold wrote. One of the BCD Initiative’s priorities is to get people from the east side to

downtown without having to use cars— something the Orchard District Neighborhood Association supports. “We would be especially excited to see better bike and pedestrian crossings across the Parkway and railroad tracks at Franklin and Greenwood,” Caram said. “Those are consistently sore spots for our neighborhood.” The City voted in 2016 to expand the Urban Growth Boundary for more housing opportunities on the edge of town, which could deal with some single-family housing issues, but proponents of the BCD argue there’s low-hanging fruit in the center of town as well. “Bend will eventually grow out,” Welton said. “But that area of town is always going to be with us. Let’s kick start it and make sure it’s a nice place.” Orchard’s Caram agrees. “We devoted a large part of our most recent member meeting at Hollinshead Barn to the vision of the Bend Central District and there was a lot of excitement in the room and a ton of support,” Caram said. “Personally, I believe that Bend is going to continue to grow, so by focusing that new growth with high density in a central location, we can preserve the wild lands on the edge of town that is the reason that so many of us call Bend home.” Urban renewal is generally paid for by Tax Increment Financing, a process by which municipalities use a portion of future tax revenue from a given area to promote development in that area, according to the website, Smartgrowthamerica. During the TIF period, overlapping taxing districts, like parks, libraries and schools, forgo any increase in property taxes within the urban renewal area, according to the March 21 presentation at the Bend City Council meeting by EcoNorthwest. During Fregonese’s presentation the same day, presenters said, “A key factor to consider when evaluating impacts to overlapping taxing districts is whether the projected new development would occur regardless of urban renewal, and therefore, whether those taxes should be considered as foregone or whether the taxing district would not have seen the growth without urban renewal.” The City Council will make the Urban Renewal District official during its May 2 meeting, then will vote at a future meeting on whether and how to use an urban renewal district for the UGB implementation, according to Anne Aurand, the City of Bend’s communication director. The staff will then come back with some specific options that it can vote on in the future, Aurand said. Newbold said COLW is hosting a celebration at Oregon Spirit Distillers May 17. SW

More Gun Enforcement— or Less?

Deschutes County wouldn’t enforce gun laws under proposed ballot measure, though the current sheriff doesn’t support that By Christian Trejbal

In 2015, Coos County voted 61 percent to 39 percent to adopt a similar measure. The same year, the Wheeler County Court unanimously adopted one without even going to voters. Those counties’ versions explain that laws regulating semi-automatic weapons, assaultstyle firearms, magazine size, ammunition types and modifications such as bump stocks are all unenforceable in the counties. They also remove background check requirements for private and internet sales. Coos County Sheriff Craig Zanni said that since the Second Amendment Preservation Ordinance passed there, it has not affected his job and he has not been asked to determine whether any local, state or federal gun law is constitutional. He supports its spirit, though. “I think it makes a great statement about putting more restrictions on law-abiding citizens instead of dealing with people who are violating the laws we already have,” Zanni said. Supporters of the Deschutes County Second Amendment Preservation Ordinance must collect 4,144 verified signatures by Aug. 6 to place the measure on the Nov. 6 ballot.

Prince’s death anniversary fell on April 21.

Sometimes, anniversaries like that are all the inspiration needed for Source staffers to go out and party like it’s 1999 By Source Staff

t started in the summer of 2017, when rumors and social media posts began to twitter about the revival of one of the 1990s’ most iconic adult beverages: Zima. (If you’re one of those people addicted to La Croix, and also jumping on the spiked seltzer bandwagon, we don’t want to hear you scoffing at Zima. You’re drinking the 2018 version in that seltzer, aging hipster.) With the Source staff fairly well mixed between Xers, Xennials and Millennials, a few of us remembered the days when Zima was all the rage, consumed by party girls and unabashed, comfortable-with-their-gender-identity dudes. It was definitely a thing. With it coming back to store shelves, office conversation turned to dedicating a night to drinking Zima. And then to everything ‘90s. And

then, to the man who coined the phrase “Party Like It’s 1999” with his 1982 song, “1999”—none other than Prince himself. He may have written his song in the ‘80s, but Prince’s “1999” was definitely on repeat in many a ‘90s college apartment, and at many an anxious pre-Y2K party. If you find yourself wondering, over the course of the next couple pages, where the heck this “Party Like It’s 1999” thing came from, now you know it’s about the above—and about the fact that as the arts, news and culture publication in our region, it’s our duty to dedicate an occasional issue to partying, because, well, we can. It also happened to work out for us to dedicate this time, right during the anniversary of Prince’s death.

With that, here’s a rough hour-byhour recap of one Party Like It’s 1999.

RIP Prince Prince Rogers Nelson

June 7, 1958-April 21, 2016

most popular drink in 1999 was the Cosmopolitan (“Sex and the City” Carrie fever, anyone?), with the White Russian taking 1998 (“The Big Lebowski” Dude fever, anyone?). Since we can’t decide which of those drinks is actually less appealing to our 2018 selves, some get one and some get the other. It’s also the time of the night when people start spilling drinks. There’s always that part of the night. Push past it and order more drinks, and see what happens. It’s not usually good. Regardless, isn’t it interesting that two iconic movies/shows of the time may have influenced what people at the time were drinking? Note to selves, Bend beer folks: Get your brew in either a popular chick show, or a ridiculous Dude show. 6:30 pm: Nachos arrive. Back in the ‘90s, a lot more nachos came with cheese from a can. It’s good to see it’s still happening somewhere in the world. 7 pm: Screech takes home the title of Best Bowler at the Source (even though he actually works at a competing newspaper), and it’s time to bail—at least, right after messing around in the arcade. How many of you had your first “date” with your middle school sweetheart in an arcade? 7:30 pm: It’s a good thing it’s not actually 1999, because in that case, it might have taken more than two minutes for a car to arrive to take us to the next spot. In 2018, we might be on the brink of being taken over by the robots who will steal our jobs and wrest us from our overpriced Bend homes, but hey, at least there’s Uber. 7:45 pm: When it comes to O.G. spots in Bend, you don’t get much more O.G. than the M&J Tavern. The Source wrote last year about how the bar just passed its 70th anniversary. Yes, there were bars here 70 years ago. Yes, we forgive you for the fact that neither you nor your bestie nor anyone in your family was here then. It’s OK. We know you’ll still tell people, Bend Sucks, Don’t Move Here. M&J is probably one of the last bars in all of Oregon with an actual cigarette machine—one that’s not filled with party favors or joke stuff. It’s got Actual. Cigarettes. Which you can smoke—out back, of course, 10 feet from the door. In 1999, it was still SUPER legal to smoke in many bars in Oregon. That only went away in 2009, with the expansion of Oregon’s Smokefree Workplace law. Pontificate on that one, and how far we’ve come. 10 PM: By this time, we’ve purchased and/or sampled nearly every old school ‘90s drink we can think of. At some point, we were discussing how you could “go old school” by simply ordering a Black Butte Porter—still one of Deschutes Brewery’s most beloved brews. But in the annals of ‘90s culture, there’s one drink that serves as the Piece de la Resistance; the most ‘90s throwback of them all. Yes, people, we are talking about Red Bull and vodka. Did we get to this one? Is it bad that we can’t remember? SW Editor’s Note: This Party Like It’s 1999 Party was supposed to end at Taco Bell—that bastion of all supplemental nutrition for 1990s teenagers. However, apparently you have to get to a Bend Taco Bell before 10 pm in order to sit in the dining room. Bend Sucks. Don’t Move Here.

9 VOLUME 22 ISSUE 17 / April 26, 2018 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

Two weeks before Party Like It’s 1999: We start calling liquor stores and checking online to find out where we can get some Zima. No one seems to sell it. We check online to find that the Redmond Walmart may be one of the last places to sell last summer’s special release. While we’re disappointed they don’t have any, we’re relieved we don’t have to visit the Redmond Walmart. One week before PLI99: We call the hotline for MillerCoors, which (allegedly) released said Zima to the public in 2017. We’re desperate to find some Zima—any Zima—left over from last year’s sale. (Apparently, one sad, solo run was all this throwback was going to get.) No one calls back. We check eBay, where the only Zima bottles to be found are empty collector’s items. 4 pm, Day of PLI99: We remember that we’d planned to start off the night at the office, with a toast and some Zima. With no Zima to be had, we rush out to the nearest retailer for a 12-pack of Smirnoff Ice instead. While the regular flavor is a bit more lime-forward than we remember Zima being, it’s something of a fair substitute. 4:30 pm: Source staffers emerge wearing Keds, backwards hats, plaid flannels, scrunchies and other stuff we vaguely remember we might have worn in the ‘90s, all while drinking said Smirnoff Ice. Ever been “iced” at a party? It’s not like the Mafia type of iced. Ask your Millennial friends about it. 5 pm: It’s happy hour at Lava Lanes, and when in search of throwback backgrounds with which to take some selfies of our exploits, what better place than the bowling alley? First though, our first round of ‘90s bar drinks: None other than the glorious Captain Morgan and Coke. Don’t act like that didn’t sound good just now. 5:15 pm: Mozzarella sticks!! If this is a ‘90s party, why has it taken this long to get some sinful bar food on the table?! This was not the era of the juice bar and kombucha station, people. The ‘90s saw Whole Foods consciousness rising, but it also saw its way around a fried food or two. 5:30 pm: The first round turns into the second, and it’s time to pick some bowling names. Sorry if your name is Ryan, Niki, Becky, Chaz or Screech, but those were the most throwback ‘90s names we could come up with. Some of us actually have to live with those as nicknames, even though it’s no longer the ‘90s… We talk about the puka shell and hemp necklaces (and hemp dresses) we should have worn for this party, and the music we loved from the ‘90s. In 1999, it’s fair to say that grunge was on its way out, replaced, at least by much of the college set, with following Phish around and attending other live jam shows. We didn’t say it was necessarily an inspired era. 6 pm: It’s time for another ‘90s-inspired cocktail. According to Delish.com, the

The New Millennium

Profile of a 12-year-old girl By Keely Damara Everyone was talking about Y2K in the weeks leading up to the new millennium. I was 12, muddling my way through my first year in junior high and the possibility of all computers crashing and leaving humanity to fend for themselves was exciting. I loved the Terminator series, after all, and doomsday scenarios are always fun, right? For those too young to remember the “Y2K bug,” it was a problem with computer code that was supposed to trigger the end of the world as clocks struck midnight on Jan. 1, 2000 (spoiler: it didn’t). My idea of partying in 1999 was getting an invite to a sleepover, where we’d watch “Titanic” on VHS for the gazillionth time. It was so long that it was split up between two tapes. I remember because we’d often skip the first one and jump right in with the second after the ship hits the iceberg. Preteen girls don’t have time for prologue when there is MASH to be played, the fortune-telling game where we’d predict who each of us would marry and if we’d live in a giant mansion or a shack (spoiler: I didn’t marry my lab partner from science class). My idea of fashion? I sported something similar to a page boy haircut and was fond of overalls, oversized Loony Toons t-shirts and knee-high toe socks sporting all the colors of the rainbow. It was an amazing time for fashion, let me tell you. That year for Christmas, my mother bought me those pleather pants I had been begging for that everyone was wearing on MTV. I wore them to school once. Turns out, pleather doesn’t breathe at all.

The Beginning of the Bar Years

A 30-year-old starts a new profession By Chris Miller While working as a sales-rep/scheduler/freight manager for a food-grade plastic producer in Portland, I decided to moonlight at a bar we’ll call Luigi’s on Thursday nights to make a little more money for Christmas. Little did I know this decision would become an off-and-on profession for the next decade. The first night on the job, I was sent down to the office to get a special bottle of wine, I was told, for a

customer. It was a set-up, however, by the lead bartender to break in newbies. As I took the Kwikset key from my newly purchased black Dickies and turned it in the lock, I heard something that resembled a Spanish cow desperate to be milked. Pushing open the door, I saw the owner—who I’d just shaken hands with 30 minutes before—with his expensive khakis draped over even pricier tan leather shoes doing the Buck Nasty with a spray-on-tanned woman atop his cocaine-laden desk. He didn’t even pause from his exercise routine to scream at me in Spanish, “Get the f out of here.” I slammed the door shut—but remembered to lock it for some weird “bro code” reason—then went back to my post behind the bar to raucous laughter from my coworkers. They ended up buying me drinks until way past the legal serving hours, and my fall to the dark side was complete.

“Now That’s What I Call Music 3”

at solving my problems with poetry, something that never seemed to work out as well as I thought it should.

Nov. 16:

You went away when you left me, you sent a letter to your sweater that smelled like the ocean. Your words caressed the fabric as if covered in lotion. You said something about wanting your sweater and CDs, so you want your stuff back, Is that how you treat me? Bellowing out your name is better than a smile or a handshake, It’s been a while since I felt OK with my namesake. It makes a difference when you actually answer. My life is jagged like a seeing eye dog that won’t answer its master. You can hold my pieces if I can play with your Reese’s. You could have fixed my folds while I ironed your creases. I wanted to explore a bit of your innocent species. My life was so much brighter with you as the candle, bringing up my image of your eyes… I begin to dismantle.

Snipe Hunting in the New Year By Anne Pick

As the world waited for the impending doom that wasn’t Y2K, my 13-year-old best friends and I gathered at Shari’s house to celebrate New Year’s Eve. Several of her parents’ friends were there along with six to eight 8th grade boys and girls. Eighth grade introduced plenty of new elements to our young lives. I remember a couple of the other girls secretly put vodka in their cans of Sprite, but not me—at that point I had vowed to never drink (fast forward four years later and that was out the door). The soundtrack for the night: “Now That’s What I Call Music: 3,” which I bought at Sam Goody in the now-defunct Mountain View Mall. And at the time, we were stoked. What we called music included “What’s My Age Again?” by blink-182, “American Woman” by Lenny Kravitz and “The Rockafeller Skank” by Fatboy Slim. Finally fed up with teen girls singing, “I did it all for the nookie,” my friend’s parents decided to send us snipe hunting in the woods. We roamed the dark streets after midnight searching for the elusive snipe, cawing out the most ridiculous noises in an effort to attract the creature. Come to find out, the snipe doesn’t exist and is a longtime practical joke. Also, “Now That’s What I Call Music: 3,” not surprisingly, did not withstand the test of time.

Back in the dizzy, when Taco Bell really was on the menu on the regs.

The Real World in Real Time If it’s written down, it must be true By Nicole Vulcan In 1999 I was a student at the University of Minnesota and a reporter for The Minnesota Daily. “Fun” involved escaping the city and heading to the more rural parts of the Midwest. This is an excerpt from my journal, dated May 17, 1999, during a trip to Wisconsin. Three small town bars last night—wood décor and men coming back from hunting, good tunes in the juke box, broadcasting Grateful Dead hour when it comes on the radio, burnt peanuts, drunk chicks sing to Abba, hunter boys point their fingers to the sky and sing along. Beer is cheap, rain keeps some away, keeps us inside longer. One crazy local comes back from travels around the world, shouts across the bar at Imane (my friend) asking her name, which she says is Kim. Guatemala City is a nasty place, he says, diesel fuel almost enough to make you sick, “yeeuch,” he cries through stained teeth and rum-heavied tongue. But he wears the clothes of that country, talks big about the places he’s gone; everywhere we asked he’s been— even to some small islands in the South Pacific that won’t be there in a few years when global warming takes its toll.

Stelth Ulvang performs songs from his latest solo album, â&#x20AC;&#x153;American Boredom,â&#x20AC;? while on break from touring with The Lumineers

By Anne Pick

I like playing to a full, small room where people are attentive. steps, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s less accountability. Similarly, you lose that personal aperture.â&#x20AC;? Ulvang, a Colorado native, has toured the globe solo and with The Lumineers.

This summer, Ulvang is throwing together a set of Ugandan musicians to play a show opening for Nathaniel Rateliff & The Night Sweats

at Red Rocks Amphitheatre outside Denver. Travel inspired his latest album, â&#x20AC;&#x153;American Boredom,â&#x20AC;? containing many songs he wrote on the road. The album pulls music from South Africa, Japan and South Americaâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;all which have different rhythmic feels. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lyrically, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s realizing the joke that has been America in a lot of countries,â&#x20AC;? Ulvang says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a great world power, but the butt of so many international jokes wherever we go. Traveling the world, talking to these people, the biggest separator â&#x20AC;&#x201D; the thing that gets us is that wealthy becomes mundane after a while.â&#x20AC;? Finding the time to write a solo album came fairly easily for Ulvang, despite being a part of an internationally touring band. â&#x20AC;&#x153;With how Lumineers tours work, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re only on stage for two hours and 30 minutes of soundcheck,â&#x20AC;? Ulvang says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Two and half hours of a day isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a lot, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a lot of travel time. I think finding places to eat takes up more time than actually eating. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll travel and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll see things. I think Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m more inspired by different cultures. I learn a lot of anecdotal history and I write. I find more inspiration trying to get out during the day and meeting people.â&#x20AC;? When it comes to performing, Ulvang has played to packed arenas and to empty bars. The downfallâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;and also the strengthâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;of playing comes in the vulnerability. At smaller shows, Ulvang can see the closeness, the people talking. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I remember playing a show opening

for U2 at the Rose Bowl, and even though 90 percent of the people werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t there for us, they were still engaged,â&#x20AC;? Ulvang says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Similarly, when you have people and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve locked them in, you can feel the room and feel the moments when you start to sleep, but you can read what works within the room. With the Lumineers, we stick with a set list, whether or not it fits the crowd. I do like the diversity at the personal shows. People like

the word, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;intimate,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; which goes along with, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;no one is there.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; I like playing to a full, small room where people are attentive.â&#x20AC;? SW Wild Child, Stelth Ulvang Mon., April 30. 9pm Volcanic Theatre Pub 70 SW Century Dr., Bend $12

ven though we write about music every week, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not often that nationally touring musicians personally reach out to request coverage. So when Stelth Ulvang, pianist for The Lumineers, emailed me, I was impressed. We generally write about the headliners of upcoming showsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;which Ulvang is notâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;but in this case, I made an exception. Not only does he play with a band whose songs have snuck onto various playlists of mine over the last several years, but his latest solo album, â&#x20AC;&#x153;American Boredom,â&#x20AC;? kills. Fans of indie folkrock and fans of The Lumineers will love this album, as well as Ulvang himself. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m learning it in every new email I send, getting a hang of it myself,â&#x20AC;?

Grateful for Garcia Roots of Creation performs its Grateful Dead-meets-reggae cover album, “Grateful Dub,” in its entirety By Anne Pick Josh Coffman

Catch Roots of Creation performing reggae-inspired Grateful Dead covers at Volcanic 5/2.

ertain bands have staying power— and not only bands, but genres, too. Both reggae music and the music of the Grateful Dead have proven their longevity. On its most recent album, Roots of Creation blends the staying power of reggae and the Grateful Dead into a unique tribute album, titled “Grateful Dub.” “When I first started playing guitar—I’m 36 now—so when I was 12 or 13, I started to get turned onto jam music from older friends who collected bootlegs of Grateful Dead and Phish shows,” Brett Wilson, founding member and lead singer recalls. “I would rewind and fast forward and pick apart the music of the Grateful Dead. At the same time, I was investigating. I was into rock and reggae and ska and metal and everything, and hip-hop. In terms of guitar, I really resonated with his [Jerry Garcia’s] voice.” Fast forward past 10 years of touring, when Wilson and Roots of Creation befriended the promoter of Jerry Jam, a festival started the year after the Dead’s lead singer, Garcia, passed away. “We love the Dead in our own style,” Wilson says. “From there, we did a Halloween show for him and did a whole set of the Grateful Dead with a reggae vein.” When it came time to record the next Roots of Creation album, the band got in touch with Errol Brown, whose credits are almost unbelievable. He worked on the last three Bob Marley albums, has won six Grammys, and at age 72, wanted to do the next Roots of Creation album. The band brought the idea of either a new album of original material or a Grateful Dead cover album. Brown wasn’t familiar with the Dead but still got excited. “Little kids like to dance to it. I feel like it’s a universal record. Deadheads, reggae fans who haven’t delved into the Dead, our fans, so far it’s been universally loved. We haven’t gotten a lot of hate,

but it’s still early,” Wilson says. During their current tour, Roots of Creation performs “Grateful Dub” in its entirety, while also peppering in some other songs—fan favorites as well as new interpretations of Grateful Dead material. In addition to an album of new material, the band plans to release “Grateful Dub: Volume 2,” in the future. “The authenticity, I believe, and the rawness of both genres, because I kind of consider the Grateful Dead to be a genre. I just think the authenticity makes the music timeless. And there’s so much of it, both genres. The most prolific artists of reggae have put out so much material, it’s all so good. The live concerts, it would take you so long to listen to all of the Dead’s material. There’re so many versions, if you don’t like one because it’s too slow, you can find another. It’s kind of like ‘Choose Your Own Adventure,’” he jokes. “My good friend always says, ‘Every day another 12-year-old kid downloads or purchases Bob Marley’s ‘Legend’ and his life is changed,” Wilson says. “It’s a starting point and then you go from there, you delve into everything. Maybe at some point in time, this [“Grateful Dub”] will serve as a roadmap to both genres.” Roots of Creation can’t wait to return to Bend. The band played a free Summer Sunday show at the Les Schwab Amphitheater nearly a decade ago. Their former booking agent also lives here, and many people from New Hampshire, the band’s stomping grounds, have relocated to Bend. Wilson looks forward to a reunion of sorts when they arrive. SW

The Domino Room California Kind Jam veterans Barry Sless, Rob Barraco, Pete Sears and John Molo team up with singer-songwriter and guitarist Katie Skene to perform original music, classic Americana and rock n’ roll, blending uninhibited jams, swamp blues, old style twang, traditional roots music and southern soul into a musical truth that pushes forward the tradition of the California Jam Band movement. 9pm. $20/adv. Tower Theatre Martha Davis and The Motels If you’re a fan of 80s new wave, The Motels probably round out your record collection. Forming in Berkley, California as The Warfield Foxes in 1971, the group changed their name to The Motels after they moved to Los Angeles. After two gold record albums that included the hits, “Only The Lonely” and “Suddenly Last Summer,” the band broke up in 1987—but a few original members have been touring as Martha Davis and The Motels since 2013, with various incarnations before that. The band is currently touring with new material, supported by their vast repertoire. 7:30pm. $22-$42. Velvet Sharkmouth the Band Sharkmouth is

Garden Tips for Spring APRIL

HOME & GARDEN PAGES

SPRING IS HERE

AND THAT MEANS IT’S TIME TO FRESHEN THINGS UP! Whether you like to dig in the dirt yourself or leave it to the professionals, our advertising guide is here to help you get started!

−− Prune your deciduous trees and shrubs, using proper pruning techniques. −− Be careful not to prune your flowering trees and shrubs that bloom on last year’s growth (old −− wood), for example your lilacs. Wait until these plants are finished blooming and then prune shortly after the flowers die off. If you are not certain about when to prune your plant contact the OSU Extension Service or your local garden center to find out. −− Apply a dormant horticultural oil to your deciduous trees and shrubs with a history of insect problems. This product will smother overwintering eggs and the crawler stage of many insects such as aphids, spider mites and scale. A lighter horticultural oil should be used on your evergreens and deciduous trees and shrubs after they have leafed out. −− Direct seed your beets, lettuce, peas, radish, and spinach. −− Transplant your broccoli, cabbage, onions, that you may have started from seed. −− If you haven’t fertilized your bulbs yet, now is a good time. Use a fertilizer high in phosphorous (the

second number on the fertilizer bag) for example, 0-46-0. −− You may need to get out the lawnmower and mow the lawn by the middle of April. −− Prepare garden soil for spring planting by adding organic matter including manures and compost or planting a cover crop (green manure) such as ryegrass, buckwheat, or barley.

MAY

−− Continue to work your compost pile, by turning, adding materials and keeping it moist. −− Mid April through May is the best time to dethatch and aerate your lawn. Rent a dethatcher from the rental shop and pull up and remove thatch, follow with a fertilizer application to stimulate rapid recovery. −− Direct seed your carrots, corn (late May), chard, kohlrabi, and potatoes. −− Transplant your brussel sprouts, cauliflower, cucumbers (late May), leeks, or peppers. −− Repair or change your sprinkler system to be more efficient. −− Now is the time to manage your weeds when they are small. First identify the weed, then remove by hand, mechanically, or chemically. Do not allow them to flower and go to seed. −− Protect your plants and crops from frost by using row cover or walls of water.

Saturday is for (Book) Lovers April 28 is Independent Bookstore Day By Keely Damara Submitted

31 VOLUME 22 ISSUE 17 / April 26, 2018 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

Avid readers can find exclusive Independent Bookstore Day titles at participating stores this Saturday.

he last Saturday in April, bookstores across the U.S. celebrate Independent Bookstore Day. Participating stores organize their own unique events, but shoppers can expect to find exclusive book titles, discounts and the company of other book lovers. Dudley’s Bookshop Cafe in Bend is holding a storewide sale in addition to a meet and greet with local author Milree Latimer, who will discuss her newly published book, “Those We Left Behind.”

“It’ll be like, ‘literary fiction,’ ‘science’—we’ll basically give an idea what’s in there.” — TOM BEANS Anyone who makes a purchase will be entered into Dudley’s raffle for stacks of free books. Those who like a little mystery can also purchase a Blind Date with a Book—all proceeds will be donated to the Humane Society of the Ochocos to help build it a new shelter. “We will be wrapping up in paper bags, like five books, so people won’t know exactly what they are,” said Tom Beans, owner of Dudley’s Bookshop Cafe. “It’ll be like, ‘literary fiction,’ ‘science’—we’ll basically give an idea what’s in there.” Herringbone Books in Redmond will host giveaways, live music and snacks throughout the day, as well as a

number of local authors who will discuss their books and suggest a few of their favorite titles to shoppers. In addition to selling exclusive books, Roundabout Books will host Dr. Suess activities and games for the little ones. Local children’s author Julie Zwillich will be at the store at 11am and Major Margaret Will, author of “Tell: Love, Defiance, and the Military Trial at the Tipping Point of Gay Rights” at 2pm. To make a day of it, join the Central Oregon Book Quest. Visit all four participating bookstores—Herringbone Books, Paulina Springs Books in Sisters, Dudley’s Bookshop Café and Roundabout Books in Bend—for a stamp in your Book Quest Passport. After collecting all four, participants earn a special discount on their next purchase.

Katie Pinto

I saw a physical benefit. It was the first fitness activity I didn’t get bored with. I did it consistently and lost weight.

By Lisa Sipe

t all started as a joke. Katie Pinto was in her mid-20s, in a band. The drummer found a hula hoop and thought it would be funny if Pinto learned to use it. It took her three weeks to get going. “You are taking things too seriously, just walk forward while the hoop is spinning,” the drummer told Pinto. She did, and she’s been seriously hooping ever since. The hula hoop gained international popularity in the late 1960s but faded away until The String Cheese Incident, a Colorado jam band, started throwing adult-sized hula hoops to their audiences in the mid1990s. That inspired audiences to use the hoops and dance, creating a hoop community that spread over time. Pinto says hooping changed her life. As she sat across from me in iridescent, teal, fish-skinned tights and a mismatched, flowy Bohemian shirt, she said, “I saw a physical benefit. It was the first fitness activity I didn’t get bored with. I did it consistently and lost weight. Getting in shape made me want to eat better

and have a healthier lifestyle.” Hooping gave her confidence, and her friends noticed. They wanted to learn how to hoop, too. When Pinto was learning to hoop, finding an actual hula hoop was hard, so she started making her own. With her own hoops she started teaching. Like Pinto, students couldn’t find hoops on the market, so they bought them from her. When Pinto found hula hooping she was using her masters in business as a training manager for Godiva Chocolatier. She quit the corporate life, bought a new car and traveled the country, teaching hula hooping at schools and libraries and selling custom hoops along the way. Moving your hips in a circular motion has benefits Pinto has seen lives changed with hula hoops. She said, “I worked with a guy that had a severe spinal injury. He did yoga and hula hooping as his

ARTWATCH

physical therapy. It repaired his spine without surgery.” Pinto also saw one of her friends pick up the hula hoop after having her second child. She lost 80 pounds from hooping, Pinto says. The friend picked up the hoop whenever she had time and used it with her kids. Beyond the hoop A “play professional” is now how Pinto sees herself. She teaches yoga, hula hooping and music, sometimes combined, to kids and adults. She wants to show people how exercise can be a side effect of having fun. The hula hoop can also be a connector. Pinto uses it as a team building or staff development workshop for corporations. “It’s challenging for everyone,” she said, “but accessible for all. Everyone feels silly. If you can feel silly around family or your coworkers, it makes other social dynamics easier to deal with. You can connect without having to be vulnerable.”

Still making hoops Making hoops is still part of Pinto’s life. Instead of making them herself she works for The Spinsterz, a professional hula hoop manufacturer in Bend. She designs custom hula hoops and travel hula hoops. A hula hoop can be designed to come apart and fit in a suitcase. Currently, Pinto is working on a custom performance hoop for a client in England. The hoop designs differ depending on her clients’ needs. She’s created custom hoops for a client with osteoporosis, pregnant women and lots of custom designs for professionals who need them for specific styles of dance. Pinto herself is like one of those hoops thrown into the crowd by The String Cheese Incident. She’s been creating community around hooping ever since she picked up that hoop “as a joke.” She’s still teaching hula hooping at libraries, and she has weekly classes and workshops.

The Last Last Saturday

The Workhouse ends its monthly gathering after April’s event All good things come to an end: The Beatles, love letters… and now, Last Saturdays at The Workhouse. While The Workhouse, an artist’s studio and retail space, is not going anywhere, its regular monthly event—which provided a place for local musicians and artists to connect and share their work—will take place for the last time Saturday. Whether the event involved musicians playing folk songs or electronica, eclectic media artists with stunning visuals, or dancers who glided across every inch of the large workspace table, Last Saturday has been a respite from the often overcrowded and commercial feeling of First Fridays, allowing the community to come hear poets and

philosophers speaking in words or pictures, relating the issues of our times. Over the last two years, business owners in The Old Iron Works buildings have not been spared the trend of rising rents, with Armature closing permanently and Stuart’s of Bend moving to 9th Street Village. That left fewer venues helping to bring Last Saturday to life. These venues have been replaced by a garden shop, a fly fishing store and a tent shop, with The Workhouse and Cindercone Clay Center being the last of the artist’s studios that once filled the area. Still, life shows us that endings can be ripe opportunities for new things to begin, and that is exactly how Cari

Brown, The Workhouse founder and owner, views it. “We decided to let go of the regularity of these events because we want to be able to bring relevant offerings to the community that are really dynamic and collaborative. We really want to focus on more content-driven opportunities for engagement—artist talks and lectures, dinners, literary events, as well as even a spring or summer craft style arts bazaar. We’re looking forward to the freedom this change will give us to truly be more creative with our space.” So stop in for one more hurrah. There will be dancing. There will be libations (it is Bend, after all). There will be magic—but, as always, that part depends on you. SW

No Substitutions, No Ketchup LITTLE BITES By Lisa Sipe

We’re the Würst serves up bites so good, your neighbors might steal some

By Lisa Sipe

Car Camping Goes Global

Nope, no ketchup here. Pommes frites and bratwurst with classic European toppings only.

he antipasto plate was a feast for the eyes. We had tried a little of everything from the We’re the Würst menu, so our appetizer was still piled high with crispy porcini pancetta, glistening herbed olives, snow white goat cheese, sweet dates and fresh white truffle arugula salad. Having saved room for dessert, I went out to order our sweet crepe as my dining partner, Lori Lubbesmeyer, grabbed us another round of drinks. When I returned, Lubbesmeyer was acting different. our previously animated conversation now a bit reserved. We

“I want to take you back 100 years with my food.” —Matthew Fidler were sharing a picnic table inside Spoken Moto with a couple who had earlier told us they were hung over. When the couple got up to look around at the vintage motorcycles, Lubbesmeyer told me, “When I was ordering our drinks I saw her take a few nibbles from our antipasto plate.” My eyes widened. Pretty gutsy on her part—we clearly weren’t finished, my phone and notebook still on the table. Maybe the alcohol was still guiding her decision-making, or she simply couldn’t resist the bounty of that antipasto platter. It was scrumptious.

Before serving European fare at We’re the Würst, Cascade Culinary Institute graduate and native Oregonian, Matthew Fidler, was helping out at his family’s furniture business. One day a lost woman walked in. Fidler cracked open a Belgian beer and started talking to her. Noticing his beer, the woman recommended he try her son-in-law’s Belgian beer at Monkless Brewing. Fidler went on to tell her that he makes his own brats using Belgian beer. A month later Robin Clement, the woman’s daughter and co-owner of Monkless Brewing, came in to try one of Fidler’s brats. After tasting it, she said she wanted his brats at the brewery, so Fidler took the plunge and bought a food truck. After a successful year at Monkless Brewing, Fidler decided to move to a higher traffic location. He’s been slinging brats, crepes and pommes frites, better known as French fries, from the parking lot at Spoken Moto for the last six months. Fidler said, “I want to take you back 100 years with my food.” The offerings are super traditional. Almost everything is made from scratch. The brat is served with house-made, organic sauerkraut and Dijon mustard on a potato bun. Don’t even think about asking for ketchup: a carved wooden sign on the front of the cart reads, “no substitutions, no ketchup.” We tried the brat on the master

crepe, a special that changes with the chef’s whim. This one had creamy, tart goat cheese, arugula and earthy trumpet mushrooms. The bratwurst was soft, juicy and lightly seasoned, the casing barely noticeable. Comfort food isn’t normally considered “light,” but it was. The brat’s flavors were delicate. The no ketchup sign made sense. Dijon would enhance these flavors. Ketchup would drown them. You won’t get ketchup with the pommes frites, either. They’re Belgian style, double fried, topped with a mayonnaise and served in a paper cone with tiny forks. The forks came in handy because the lemony shallot aioli pooled into the crispy potato sticks makes them messy to eat. Save room for dessert at We’re the Würst. Fidler makes Liège waffles dipped in caramel or ganache, a chocolate and cream glaze. The waffles are made with coarse pearl sugar that caramelizes into crispy sweet bits inside the waffle. We ordered the lemon, cardamom and honey crepes, served with a dusting of powdered sugar and lemon wedges. It was a wonderful, bright, sweet treat to end our meal—even in spite of the theft.

Do Adaptogens Work?

Lisa Sipe

A few weeks ago, I wrote about adaptogens and their promise of reducing stress. I ended my article saying I would do a two-week experiment to see if they would bliss me out. Each day I added a teaspoon of adaptogens—the Moon Juice Power Dust—to a fresh fruit, Greek yogurt and coconut milk smoothie. After several weeks my stress level has reduced a little. Maybe because I just got a puppy? I do know I feel better overall and will continue to have that smoothie for lunch. How’s that for a definitive answer?

SCREEN Limitless “You Were Never Really Here” is a towering achievement By Jared Rasic Amazon Studios

39 VOLUME 22 ISSUE 17 / April 26, 2018 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

Stop. Hammer time. But not the fun kind.

“Y

ou Were Never Really Here” exists in several states of oxymoronic extremes. Quiet brutality. Serene frenzy. Intense peace. Personal enigmas. Joe is a combat veteran suffering from PTSD and a sense of duty to missing and trafficked children—a hired gun rescuing missing kids and dispatching the slavers in a brutal and unflinching fashion. Joe doesn’t use a gun or knives or any kind of weapon that comes across as inherently cinematic. The people he’s killing are evil and anyone who sells another human

He’s a giant, towering over everyone who gets in his way and cutting an imposing figure carved from rage and blood. into slavery deserves what’s coming to them, obviously, but “YWNRH” doesn’t want the audience to cheer for Joe’s chosen outlet for his limitless aggression and rage. Writer/Director Lynne Ramsay wants the audience to feel complicit in Joe’s mission, so she gives him a weapon we want to look away from, to cover our ears from its deafening taps. Joe uses a small ball-peen hammer, swinging it like its Thor’s mighty Mjolnir and he’s the only one worthy enough to carry the weight. When Joe is hired by a New York state senator to rescue his kidnapped daughter, Joe becomes embroiled in a conspiracy worthy of Alex Jones, far above his pay grade and much more layered than his poor misfiring brain even cares about. He doesn’t care about the who or the why. He just knows a little girl is missing and he can get her out safely. Joaquin Phoenix is astounding as Joe, once more redefining what a true chameleon-like actor can accomplish. He’s a giant, towering over everyone who gets in his way

and cutting an imposing figure carved from rage and blood. Compare his work here with that of “Gladiator,” “The Master” and “Inherent Vice,” and Phoenix is completely unrecognizable. There’s no ego on display, only a savage artistry that solidifies him as one of the most complex performers out there. Ramsay is equally astounding. She’s quietly been making some of the most profoundly realized films of the last 30 years without compromising her sometimes-enigmatic directorial style. She’s such a master that she could easily feign a more mainstream palatable aesthetic, but her brand of cinematic expressionism should never be tamed. With this, “Ratcatcher,” “Movern Callar” and “We Need to Talk About Kevin,” Ramsay has become one of the most exciting filmmaking voices in modern cinema. As Joe becomes further enmeshed in the hunt for the senator’s daughter and his life becomes more dangerous, his PTSD starts to gradually reshape the world around him. He’s not a detective unraveling a terrible conspiracy, as these movies would typically have the character be. Instead, he’s a great beast stalking the margins of society, delivering vengeance and protecting the innocent. When his trauma becomes so extreme that he can barely focus on the world around him, the audience is given a peek into the psychology of a survivor as upsetting as it is startlingly original. This is “Taxi Driver” by way of “Oldboy” and a future classic in the making. Calm anxiety. SW

A WRINKLE IN TIME: Based on the beloved

children’s book by Madeleine L’Engle, this adaptation takes the important thematic and story points and leaves the rest. At turns lovely and gentle, and while not a perfect movie, it does enough right to feel like a genuinely humanist motion picture. Without a drop of cynicism, “A Wrinkle in Time” makes a bit of magic. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House

ANNIHILATION: Easily the weirdest and most surreal theatrical film since Cronenberg was experimenting with body horror. Five women cross a boundary into an area slowly changing into something otherworldly and dangerous. The imagery in this film will stay with you. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House BEIRUT: Director Brad Anderson finally gives

Jon Hamm a starring role he deserves, as a flailing man called in to negotiate a deadly hostage situation. With a script from Tony Gilroy (who previously penned the Bourne franchise), expect a political thriller with explosions and lots of tortured brooding. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

BLACK PANTHER: The hype for the newest

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

BLOCKERS: From the director of “Pitch Per-

fect” comes a comedy about two sets of parents desperate to keep their kids from losing their virginity on prom night. With a great cast including Ike Barinholtz, Leslie Mann and John Cena, the laughs should come. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Redmond Cinema.

CHAPPAQUIDDICK: A dramatic thriller about a fatal car accident in 1969 that derailed Teddy Kennedy’s career and took the life of a young campaign strategist. Expect a very detailed look into the events of that night. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House FINAL PORTRAIT: Stanley Tucci (director

of “Big Night” and “The Impostors”) has always been one of the North America’s most underrated filmmakers, so hopefully “Final Portrait” can elevate him to where he belongs. The true story of painter Alberto Giacometti and critic James Lord deserves to be known by everyone. Sisters Movie House

FOXTROT: From the director of 2009’s beautiful “Lebanon” comes a tale of a grieving family who lost a son to war. With a big humane heart, it’s at times hilarious and heartbreaking. “Foxtrot” is the best of what cinema has to offer. Tin Pan Theater

actress who must clear her name after her boss is murdered. Any film with Katz’s name on it is worth catching, as he has the incredible ability to take any genre and deconstruct it to its barest bones. Tin Pan Theater

I CAN ONLY IMAGINE: A true story about

Bart Millard, the lead singer of the Christian band, MercyMe. When his father dies, he pens the titular song, which is apparently a real thing, popular in the world right now. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

I FEEL PRETTY: After the train wreck that

was last year’s “Snatched,” hopefully this body-positive comedy can get Amy Schumer back on track. She’ll have to expand from her normal schtick (clueless and egotistical) to stay relevant and funny, so we’ll see if she can pull that off with “I Feel Pretty.” Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX. Redmond Cinemas

ISLE OF DOGS: Wes Anderson has crafted another meticulously designed dramedy, but this time he goes back to the medium of stop-motion animation. The film is beautiful to look at and filled with a raw and beautiful soul that most movies struggle to achieve with real actors. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House LEANING INTO THE WIND: A documentary about Andy Goldsworthy as he travels across the globe creating new works of magnificent art. For fans of art and nature, both human and otherwise. Tin Pan Theater

THE MIRACLE SEASON: A volleyball sports drama featuring Helen Hunt and William Hurt. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX RAMPAGE: If there’s more you need from a

movie than The Rock fighting a giant gorilla, an evil crocodile and a flying wolf, then this might not be the movie you’re looking for. It’s delightfully entertaining in all the right ways and proves the Rock can carry any premise with his eyebrows alone. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

READY PLAYER ONE: If a 140-minute-long

movie about video games and cinema is your thing, then “Ready Player One” might be your Holy Grail of film. With Steven Spielberg in the director’s chair, even the moments that don’t quite work make for a visually stunning experience. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House, Redmond Cinema

SUPER TROOPERS 2: What amounts to 90 minutes of Canadian jokes means “Super Troopers 2” lives up to the law of diminishing returns. Barely any laughs. This movie is a huge waste of time. See full review on p 37. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

GAME NIGHT: With a cast featuring Jason

TRUTH OR DARE: Now that we’re making movies based on drinking games, I wonder how long until we finally have that long-awaited Spin the Bottle movie. Maybe a thriller based on Duck, Duck, Goose? Either way, this is forgettable horror at its most bland and cynical. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

GEMINI: A thriller starring Zoe Kravitz, from

Joaquin Phoenix gives a fiercely committed performance as a war veteran with PTSD searching for the missing daughter of a state senator. A powerful and visually stung motion picture that doesn’t remotely hold the audience’s hand. See full review on p 35. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX.

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

Stupid Troopers

Hope you like Canada jokes, eh? By Jared Rasic

Or maybe this is the least funny movie I’ve ever seen in the theater. “Super Troopers 2” manages to forget everything that made the original funny. The random eccentricities of the first film meant anything could happen from one scene to the next. Instead of cashing in on that unpredictability and updating it to somewhat modern sensibilities, the script invents a lame excuse to plop the troopers down in Canada to tell a fish-out-of-water story.

atching “Super Troopers 2” made me feel crazy—as if everything I’d ever thought about film was thrown under the bus and proven to be nothing more than the insane fecal scribblings of a madman layering the walls of his padded cell. As the sold-out auditorium laughed at almost everything, I looked at my best friend (sitting next to me, also in wild-eyed horror) and wondered if we could escape before the audience noticed our differences and started pointing and screeching at us like Donald Sutherland in “Invasion of the Body Snatchers.” While waiting in the massive line to get into the sold-out showing, my friend and I witnessed three separate moments involving homophobia, racism and sexism, not putting us in the greatest mood for the movie. Was this the modern audience for “Super Troopers,” 17 years after the cult classic stoner original? Was I going to need to start using “snowflakes” as a pejorative before I could watch the movie? Believe me, I get it. The original was a loosely tied together series of dick, fart and stoner jokes that worked because Broken Lizard (the comedy team behind “Troopers,” “Beerfest” and “Club Dread”) played a somewhat lovable group of underdogs. It’s an intermittently funny movie that became a cult classic because of the novelty of seeing cops be lovable stoners and because of the absurdity of the humor.

Oh, look, a fat guy in big pants. Whatever will they think of next??

back from being fired (because they killed Fred Savage during a ride-along) to help transition a small Canadian town being annexed into the United States. So, I shit you not, the film is essentially 90 minutes of Canadian jokes, French jokes and French-Canadian jokes. Stale ones. Jokes that were old when they appeared on “How I Met Your Mother” several years ago. Jokes that died after “Strange Brew” told them in 1983. That’s the thing: anything can be made funny again. Watching a bunch of middle-aged Americans mock Canadians for their accents and being friendly could have possibly worked if the jokes did, but it all feels so lazy and uninspired. The troopers come off as bullies and the xenophobia, gay panic and sexism don’t play as well in 2018 as they apparently did in 2001. Yet my friend and I were the abnormality. The audience erupted in laughter at every little call back to the

original and each third-grade fart joke. Maybe we’re just too old and cranky to enjoy the celebration of stupidity and blind nationalism that the film so pathetically plaudits. Or maybe this is the least funny movie I’ve ever seen in the theater. “Super Troopers 2” creates a new style of comedy that I dub “Post-Humorous.” Definition: Laughing uncontrollably at something that seems like it should be funny, even if it isn’t. Please welcome our new Post-Humorous overlords. SW

It’s Irrigation Time!

Where does the water go, and how do we conserve it? By Chris Miller 43

The district piped 3,000 feet of canal near Brookswood Boulevard in Southwest Bend this year, and has two phases of a larger plan to decrease water loss and add flows back to the river. River Conservancy. The $40 million project will immediately conserve 30 cubic feet per second, and when completed, is expected to add an additional 30 to 40 cfs over time, the document said. Phase two would tackle what COID’s representatives say is the area responsible for the largest water loss in the entire system: the canal that runs from the North Canal Dam to the Juniper Ridge Hydroelectric area. This $35 million project is expected to conserve 40 cfs, returning the water to the river for the sake of Endangered Species Act-listed species, such as the Oregon spotted frog. These flow returns could help mitigate low-water year issues, such as in October 2013 when an estimated 3,000 fish were killed near Lava Island Falls, according to a story in Bend Magazine titled, “The Deschutes Basin’s Last Great Problem.” Tye Krueger, who owns Bend’s Confluence Fly Shop, said he understands the many voices when it comes to the river flows and uses. “From my perspective as a shop owner and farmer most of my life, I completely understand [people irrigating their fields.] Who wouldn’t want to do that?” he said. Aleta Warren is a staunch opponent to piping the canals. She told the Source in 2017, “This was dug in 1903, it needs to be protected and cherished, not only for the wildlife—the ducks, geese, frogs and deer—but for its historical legacy.” Changing Flows Before the construction of the reservoir and dam, the Deschutes—a spring-fed river—flowed at a fairly even rate: 500-800 cfs on average in the summer, below the dam, and 350-600 in the winter, according to Jeremy Giffin, watermaster for District 11, which includes Deschutes County. Since the dam was constructed in 1966, flows vary

VOLUME 22 ISSUE 17 / April 26, 2018 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

erhaps you’re new to Bend and wonder why in the winter, you see barren canals that travel north and east of town. Then come April 15, the same canals are brimming with cold, clear water. Central Oregon was traditionally an agricultural community, and the canals bring water to farms and ranches. The water comes from the Deschutes River—or, more specifically, from Wickiup Reservoir, constructed in 1949 to provide water for the North Irrigation District and farmers in Jefferson County. However, according to a Source article in 2017, the water that flows through the Central Oregon Irrigation District’s canals lose 40 to 60 percent of their water due to ground loss and evaporation. COID is addressing the issue. The district piped 3,000 feet of canal near Brookswood Boulevard in Southwest Bend this year, and has two phases of a larger plan to decrease water loss and add flows back to the river. Phase one, slated to happen from 2018 to 2019, would pipe the main canal in the Smith Rock area of COID’s irrigation system, according to a document from COID the Source obtained from the Deschutes Water races through the Central Oregon Canal near Canal Row Park in Bend.

with the seasons. During the storage season, from November to March, the Deschutes’ average flow was 200 cfs between 1966 and 2018, Giffin said. In the summertime—or irrigation time—the flows average at 1,400 cfs, according to Giffin’s data. These large swings in water flow can put users of the Deschutes on opposite banks when it comes to water management. Fishermen want the flows back toward the traditional ones to save the native trout that used to run in the upper river. Farmers and ranchers need the water the Deschutes provides to keep their otherwise arid lands growing. Ultimately, water in the canals ends up in farmers’ fields, which can be considered another point of contention. According to statistics from a 2006 report from the Deschutes Water Alliance’s “Growth, Urbanization and Land Use Change: Impacts on Agriculture and Irrigation Districts in Central Oregon,” in Deschutes County the average per-acre net cash farm income was negative $51 for non-exclusive farmland. However, with the increasing cost of land in Deschutes County—and the possibility of a large tax burden—people with water rights tend to use them to keep their land in farm deferral. Farm use is defined by the Oregon Department of Revenue as, “the current employment of land for the primary purpose of obtaining a profit in money by: raising harvesting and selling crops; feeding, breeding or management and sale of or production of livestock—such as chickens or eggs— selling dairy products; or the boarding or training of equines.” Scot Langton, the Deschutes County tax assessor, said the number of years someone could potentially pay back taxes depends on the zoning laws in the area. For instance, if the property was zoned exclusive for farming and not used for that purpose, the owner could face 10 years of back taxes at a non-farm deferral rate. For non-exclusive zoning, the owner could be assessed for five years. To keep a farm deferral on non-EFU zoned land, Langton said landowners fill out a schedule S form that shows revenue from their lands—but they don’t have to show a profit, just intent to make one through farming.

According to Oregon’s water laws, to keep a water right, the property owner must irrigate at least once every five years in the acreage dedicated for irrigation. Changing the Game? Tod Heisler, executive director for the Deschutes River Conservancy, said he would like to see a multi-faceted approach to saving water in the river, such as changing infrastructure practices from the irrigation districts and tax deferrals for some people with water rights if they were to lose their farm deferrals. “We support this modernization of the infrastructure and working with landowners to help them use water more efficiently,” Heisler said. One way for people with water rights who don’t need to use them, and still receive a tax break, is with the Wildlife Habitat Conservation and Management Program through the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife. According to ODFW’s website, “the WHCMP is a cooperative effort involving state and local governments and other partners to incentivize private landowners to voluntarily conserve native wildlife habitat. The Oregon Legislature created the WHCMP to offer a property tax incentive to private landowners who want to provide wildlife habitat on their properties instead of, or in addition to, farming, growing timber or other land uses. Under the WHCMP, land subject to an approved wildlife habitat conservation and management plan receives a wildlife habitat special assessment, where property taxes are assessed at the relatively low value that would apply if the land were being farmed or used for commercial forestry.” For more information on the program, visit dfw. state.or.us/lands/whcmp/.

504 Lot Subdivision Planned for Redmond

Due largely to the growth of the airport, three new hotels are also coming in. Wood Spring Suites with 120 rooms and a 105-room Hampton Inn off Highway 97 and Airport Way have been announced. A third unnamed hotel nearby is also planned on property owned by the airport. The city is also working to attract new industry and jobs. The new eastside sewer interceptor in the southern part of Redmond will help develop 900 acres. Additionally, the southern part of Highway 97 has improvements planned to improve access and traffic flow with frontage and back roads. It’s nice to see government moving forward to help alleviate our housing crisis and accompany it with infrastructure and job growth.

s home prices continue to climb ahead of wage growth, many future homebuyers in Bend are unable to buy in Bend and are increasingly looking to Redmond and other nearby areas where prices are lower. I have been showing clients property in Redmond recently and am amazed at all of the new development taking place. At the April 17 City Council meeting, Redmond annexed 76.6 acres for the Dry Canyon Village subdivision. The land was already within the urban growth boundary. It will be 504 lots, half of which are for residents over 55, with the remainder as mixed development. The City requested the subdivision also include 30 accessory dwelling units, or granny flats, in recognition of the need for affordable housing.

I hate to be trite, but my wife and I are experiencing â&#x20AC;&#x153;lesbian bed death.â&#x20AC;? Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been happily married for three years. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not sure why weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not having sex. Sure, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re both busy, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s more a question of just not ever feeling the urge. I know sex is important for a relationship, and Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m worried. Is there a way to reboot our sex life?Â â&#x20AC;&#x201D;Bedfriends Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s understandably depressing if the only time thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s heavy breathing in the bedroom is when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re re-enactingÂ WrestleMania XXVâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;that is, trying to get the duvet cover on. This doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean you should buy into the lesbo-bashing notion of â&#x20AC;&#x153;lesbian bed deathâ&#x20AC;?â&#x20AC;&#x201D;the myth that lesbian relationships, in particular, are where sex goes to die.Â The term traces back to a finding from social psychologist Phillip Blumstein and sociologist Pepper Schwartz, published in their 1983 book, â&#x20AC;&#x153;American Couples: Money, Work, Sex.â&#x20AC;? Blumstein and Schwartz, reviewing results from their survey of 12,000 American couples, announced that lesbians in relationships â&#x20AC;&#x153;have sex less frequently by far than any other type of couple.â&#x20AC;?Â This single survey led to decades of sneering about lesbian relationships as the province of hot hand-holding. However, psychologist Suzanne Iasenza notes that a bunch of subsequent studies found that lesbians tend to be more sexually assertive and sexually satisfied than straight ladiesâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;as well as less orgasm-challenged. (Helps when you know your way around the ladyparts without needing a two-hour lecture and a female anatomy PowerPoint.) The reality is, so-called lesbian bed death actually happens to heterosexual womenâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; once they get into relationships. In other words, the real issue is not being a lesbian but being a woman in a long-term partnershipâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;and the assumption that male sexual response, driven by spontaneously occurring lust, should be considered the norm for women. Sex researcher Rosemary Basson, M.D., finds that when a relationship is brand-new or when women are apart from their partners for days or weeks, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re likely to experience the â&#x20AC;&#x153;spontaneous sexual hungerâ&#x20AC;? that men tend to have. However, once a relationship has been going for a while, womenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sexual desire becomes â&#x20AC;&#x153;responsive.â&#x20AC;? It isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t gone. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;triggerableâ&#x20AC;?â&#x20AC;&#x201D;which is to say itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hibernating until somebody wakes it up with a little makey-outey.Â This, however, brings us to another

problem. Chances are, a reason that straight couples might have more sex is that menâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; driven by that spontaneous lustâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;are more likely to initiate. You and your wife need to initiate -- and maybe even schedule sex dates so initiating doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t become yet another thing that falls off your to-do list. Eventually, when you light a bunch of candles to set the mood, your wifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s response should be something a little more erotic than â&#x20AC;&#x153;You gotta be kidding me. Another squirrel fried on the power line?â&#x20AC;?Â

For Whom The Cell TollsÂ Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m addicted to my phone -- Twitter, Instagram, news, textsâ&#x20AC;Śyou name it. My girlfriend feels disrespected and unheard when I look at it while sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s talking, but I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem to stop. Please help me out before I lose the woman I love!Â â&#x20AC;&#x201D;Addicted If your smartphone were actually smart, it would ping you to listen to your girlfriend before sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s your ex-girlfriend trashtalking you in a bar.Â Instead, smartphones Amy Alkon and apps turn us into lab rats ferociously hitting the touch screen for another hit of techno-crack. They do this through what psychologists call â&#x20AC;&#x153;intermittent reinforcementâ&#x20AC;?â&#x20AC;&#x201D;â&#x20AC;&#x153;rewardsâ&#x20AC;? that come randomly and unpredictably. Checking your phone sometimes â&#x20AC;&#x153;rewardsâ&#x20AC;? you with a new message or newsbitâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;sometimes (or even often), but not always. When â&#x20AC;&#x153;rewardsâ&#x20AC;? come regularly and reliablyâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;like when a rat pushes a bar and gets a food pellet every timeâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;the rat chills out and only presses when, say, his stomach rings the dinner bell. Unpredictable rewards, on the other handâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; only sometimes getting a hitâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;drive the rats to pump the bar incessantly, sometimes even till the little fellers go claws up.Â However, there is hope for youâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;and your relationshipâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;thanks to research on habit formation (byÂ psychologist Phillippa Lally, among others). Repeatedly behaving differently when your girlfriendâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s talking to youâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;by turning your phone totally off and, if possible, relocating it to another roomâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; can eventually change your default behavior from robotically checking your phone to attentiveness to those important to you. In time, you might expand your attentiveness into other areas of your life. A good test for whether itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s okay to be all up in your phone is swapping in its low-tech counterpart. For example, when the highway patrolman strides over and taps on your car window, is that really the best time to pick up that Stephen King novel and read the end of Chapter 4?

ASTROLOGY SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): I hope the next

the longest-running American TV sitcom and animated series. But it had a rough start. In the fall of 1989, when producers staged a private pre-release screening of the first episode, they realized the animation was mediocre. They worked hard to redo it, replacing 70 percent of the original content. After that slow start, the process got easier and the results got better. When the program completes its thirtieth season in 2019, it will have aired 669 episodes. I don’t know if your own burgeoning project will ultimately have as enduring a presence, Taurus, but I’m pretty sure that, like *The Simpsons,* it will eventually become better than it is in the early going. Stick with it.

seven weeks will be a time of renaissance for your most engaging alliances. The astrological omens suggest it can be. Would you like to take advantage of this cosmic invitation? If so, try the following strategies. 1. Arrange for you and each of your close companions to relive the time when you first met. Recall and revitalize the dispensation that originally brought you together. 2. Talk about the influences you’ve had on each other and the ways your relationship has evolved. 3. Fantasize about the inspirations and help you’d like to offer each other in the future. 4. Brainstorm about the benefits your connection has provided and will provide for the rest of the world.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): The coming weeks might be an interesting time to resurrect a frustrated dream you abandoned in a wasteland; or rescue and restore a moldering treasure you stopped taking care of a while back; or revive a faltering comvmitment you’ve been ignoring for reasons that aren’t very high-minded. Is there a secret joy you’ve been denying yourself without good cause? Renew your relationship with it. Is there a rough prize you received before you were ready to make smart use of it? Maybe you’re finally ready. Are you brave enough to dismantle a bad habit that hampers your self-mastery? I suspect you are.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Now is one of the rare times when you should be alert for the potential downsides of blessings that usually sustain you. Even the best things in life could require adjustments. Even your most enlightened attitudes and mature beliefs may have pockets of ignorance. So don’t be a prisoner of your own success or a slave of good habits. Your ability to adjust and make corrections will be key to the most interesting kind of progress you can achieve in the coming weeks.

CANCER (June 21July 22): The Hollywood film industry relies heavily on recycled ideas. In 2014, for example, only one of the ten top-grossing movies -- *Interstellar* -- was *not* a sequel, remake, reboot, or episode in a franchise. In the coming weeks and months, Cancerian, you’ll generate maximum health and wisdom for yourself by being more like *Interstellar* than like *The Amazing Spider-Man 2,* *Transformers: Age of Extinction,* *X-Men: Days of Future Past,* and the six other top-ten rehashes of 2014. Be original!

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Long ago, in the land we now call Italy, humans regarded Mars as the divine protector of fields. He was the fertility god who ripened the food crops. Farmers said prayers to him before planting seeds, asking for his blessings. But as the Roman Empire arose, and warriors began to outnumber farmers, the deity who once served as a kind benefactor evolved into a militant champion, even a fierce and belligerent conqueror. In accordance with current astrological omens, Leo, I encourage you to evolve in the opposite direction. Now is an excellent time to transmute aggressiveness and combativeness into fecundity and tenderness. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You sometimes get superstitious when life is going well. You worry about growing overconfident. You’re afraid that if you enjoy yourself too much, you will anger the gods and jinx your good fortune. Is any of that noise clouding your mood these days? I hope not; it shouldn’t be. The truth, as I see it, is that your intuition is extra-strong and your decision-making is especially adroit. More luck than usual is flowing in your vicinity, and you have an enhanced knack for capitalizing on it. In my estimation, therefore, the coming weeks will be a favorable time to build up your hunger for vivid adventures and bring your fantasies at least one step closer to becoming concrete realities. Whisper the following to yourself as you drop off to sleep each night: “I will allow myself to think bigger and bolder than usual.”

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): The bad news is that 60 percent of Nevada’s Lake Mead has dried up. The good news -- at least for historians, tourists, and hikers -- is that the Old West town of St. Thomas has re-emerged. It had sunk beneath the water in 1936, when the government built the dam that created the lake. But as the lake has shrunk in recent years, old buildings and roads have reappeared. I foresee a comparable resurfacing in your life, Libra: the return of a lost resource or vanished possibility or departed influence.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Capricorn author Simone de Beauvoir was a French feminist and activist. In her book *A Transatlantic Love Affair,* she made a surprising confession: Thanks to the assistance of a new lover, Nelson Algren, she finally had her first orgasm at age 39. Better late than never, right? I suspect that you, too, are currently a good candidate to be transported to a higher octave of pleasure. Even if you’re an old pro at sexual climax, there may be a new level of bliss awaiting you in some other way. Ask for it! Seek it out! Solicit it! AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Can you afford to hire someone to do your busy work for a while? If so, do it. If not, see if you can avoid the busy work for a while. In my astrological opinion, you need to deepen and refine your skills at lounging around and doing nothing. The cosmic omens strongly and loudly and energetically suggest that you should be soft and quiet and placid. It’s time for you to recharge your psychospiritual batteries as you dream up new approaches to making love, making money, and making sweet nonsense. Please say a demure “no, thanks” to the strident demands of the status quo, my dear. Trust the stars in your own eyes. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): I believe it’s a favorable time for you to add a new mentor to your entourage. If you don’t have a mentor, go exploring until you find one. In the next five weeks, you might even consider mustering a host of fresh teachers, guides, trainers, coaches, and initiators. My reading of the astrological omens suggests that you’re primed to learn twice as much and twice as fast about every subject that will be important for you during the next two years. Your future educational needs require your full attention. ARIES (March 21-April 19): Imagine you’re one of four porcupines caught in frigid weather. To keep warm, you all have the urge to huddle together and pool your body heat. But whenever you try to get close, you prick each other with your quills. The only solution to that problem is to move away from each other, even though it means you can’t quell your chill as well. This scenario was used by psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud as a parable for the human dilemma. We want to be intimate with each other, Freud said, but we hurt each other when we try. The oft-chosen solution is to be partially intimate: not as close as we would like to be, but only as much as we can bear. Now everything I just said, Aries, is a preface for better news: In the coming weeks, neither your own quills nor those of the people you care about will be as sharp or as long as usual.

Can Cannabis Make People Sick? canstockphoto.com

WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / April 26, 2018 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

If you be illin’ from herb, some doctors say try a hot shower, or just say no.

fter 20 years of working with people seeking to use cannabis to address medical conditions, illness and injuries, treating nausea is among the top three reasons people say they use it. Those undergoing chemo and radiation treatments also use it to treat their vomiting, that along with severe nausea, can be a common side effect. Much as there are no atheists in foxholes, there are no prohibitionists when vomiting—moving many to change their minds after experiencing that benefit of cannabis for themselves or a loved one. The relief of menstrual cramps is also well documented, and for many women it’s their first experience with medicinal cannabis use. Pain relief is the most common goal of medicinal users, with 89 percent of Oregon Medical Marijuana Program patients in 2016 listing “severe pain” as their qualifying condition. Meanwhile, it’s rather surprising that there’s a condition identified with increased frequency among some cannabis users that results in severe nausea, cramps and vomiting. And the way doctors suggest those suffering cure it? By ceasing their use of cannabis. It’s called Cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome, first described in 2004 in Australia, when 19 patients, found to be regular cannabis users, were experiencing cramps, nausea and repetitive vomiting for no discernable reason, except they used cannabis. The papers I have read about CHS don’t offer specifics about the cannabis use—how often, how much, which strains, was it lab tested for cleanliness, and what delivery system was being used ( joint, bong, vaporizer, etc). One paper said the patient consumed “at least one cannabis bud daily for the past three years.” But the initial Australian study simply uses the language “chronic cannabis abuse.” (And no, it’s not “Chronic” in the Dr. Dre sense, smart mouth). The best description of use I found was by Dr. Kennon Heard, a professor of emergency medicine and medical toxicology and pharmacology at the University of Colorado School of Medicine,

who told NPR, “Essentially, patients who use marijuana very frequently for long periods of time—usually at least six months, probably most of them have been using for several years—develop sort of intractable abdominal pain and vomiting that sort of comes and goes over the course of days to weeks.” He says that it’s on the rise, with his office seeing one to two patients a day, and his belief that there are many more who never seek medical attention. He later told an interviewer that he believes, “The most likely cause is people using marijuana frequently and in high doses have changes in the receptors in their body, and those receptors become dysregulated in some way, and it starts causing pain.” Those suffering with CHS frequently find relief by taking hot showers and baths. The hot water is believed to activate a receptor in the abdomen that helps symptoms. As Dr. Jordan Tishler, who’s Harvard trained and operates a cannabis clinic in Massachusetts told Newsweek, those showers and baths are “the only feature that definitively points to CHS.” Doctors now think they’ve found a quick fix when that treatment isn’t available: capsaicin cream. The easyto-find, over-the-counter topical analgesic creams used in the studies were between .0025 percent and .0075 percent capsaicin, and were applied to the abdomen. The capsaicin has a similar effect as the hot water on the aforementioned receptor. What doctors most commonly recommend is that those with CHS simply stop smoking cannabis—not received with much enthusiasm by those who find it counterintuitive that something which has relieved these symptoms in other instances is now causing those same symptoms. Plus, cannabis is still great for other things such as stress relief, and that’s a difficult thing to give up, or trade in for something more commonly used, such as alcohol. Those afflicted with CHS need to weigh the benefits and risks of cannabis use for themselves.
