T
hree years ago, my Norwegian grandmother Bernice turned 100 years old. Leading up to her birthday, I spent a number of evenings interviewing her, and asking questions about her childhood and about growing up on a Wisconsin farm before there was electricity, phones, and cars. But what struck me most was her answer to my question, “How do you feel like the world has changed most in your lifetime?” “I have one granddaughter who is a doctor,” she told me, referring to my sister, “and another who is a successful business woman” (my cousin from Chicago), “and, a third who is in graduate school to become a psychiatrist.” She then added the context to those comments: “When I was born, women could not even vote.” More than the invention of the automobile, or indoor plumbing, or telephones, or television, or moon landings, or the internet, what my grandmother noted in her 100 years was the opportunities and equality that women achieved during her lifetime. It was a humbling observation. And, a lot has changed even in the nearly 20 years since the Source first started publishing its “women’s issue,” and also nominating a “woman of the year” (like, for example, the Bend Chamber of Commerce started naming a “woman of the year” this year as well!). We are pleased to examine some of the struggles that women still face, but also are very pleased to announce Dr. Shirley Metcalf, the new president of COCC, as our woman of the year—and that, with her appointment she brings the total to 10 out of 17 of community colleges in Oregon led by women.

Wow Laurie, way to pull the race card on this one. Are you serious? If you desperately seek diversity then feel free to go back where you came from or move to Portland, plenty of diversity there. The anti-Californian sentiment has nothing to do with race, religion, gender, etc... It has everything to do with people moving here from California (or wherever) and bringing their inflated egos, inflated sense of entitlement, bad driving habits, ridiculous opinions, and the idea that we should change and do things the way they were done where [they] came from. Oh, and it may also have something to do with out-of-state interests and companies buying up properties and turning what was once an affordable place to live into the next Aspen. Just because a one-bedroom shack in the Bay Area costs $1,500 a month to rent there, doesn’t mean that’s what it should be here. But, this has been going on for years and nobody seems to mind, so I guess all the blame can’t be put on the transplants if no one objects to the insanity. Maybe it’s time for the residents and city officials of this town to take a little pride and ownership in where they live and put a stop to the madness before it’s too late. (We can stop the ad campaigns for tourism now, I think we are doing fine in that department.) Or maybe we are too far gone already. “Welcome to Bend, CA?” —CS

ilege, or about $200 per rental. This is actually a sweetheart deal for the year round vacation rental owners because the high fees will discourage competition. Unless you have a million dollar home, it makes no sense to pay $800 or $900 in fees just to rent your home four times. —Dave Seminara

True that, Dave. By trying to curb Airbnb, the city actually made it into a practice that only GETTING IT WRONG ON can be done as a full fledged business now, VACATION RENTALS and no longer something to help residents Erin Rook’s April 23 article on vacation copyrighted 2015 make ends meet by renting a room now and E.J.

Those owners, who are just renting a few days here and there, do not need a land use permit, operating license, or to pay transient room taxes...” In fact, the only thing that Type 1 (less than four rentals totaling no more than 29 days per year) vacation rental properties are exempt from is the 250-foot rule. They will still need to apply for a permit and, in fact, the new fee of $558 is significantly more than the current fee for everyone, which is $454. They will also need to obtain an annual operating license, just like the year-round rentals, and the City has told me this will cost between $200-$300 per year. All this means that, in their first year, someone who has the right to rent no more than four times per year will pay around $800 for that priv-

After reading the article in the Bulletin last week about potential changes to Galveston Avenue, I decided to ponder the best way for this to happen. And noticed that there is NO MONEY in the City budget for this $2.5-$5 million project. Since there is no college yet on the west side with students who need party places, there is no money coming from that sector. Bend Parks and Rec didn’t write this into their budget, so no extra money from that fiefdom. I don’t think that vacation renters are aware of the plans so they couldn’t be counted on to pony up extra fees for more entertainment. After realizing that there must be an option, I think I have found it! Why not install toll booths on the EAST ends of every bridge that crosses the river, so that anyone traveling to the ultra-desirable West side of town can contribute to the improvements to Galveston Avenue. If the toll was $4, it’s equivalent to one little espresso each time the bridge is crossed. And soon the City would be rolling in dough for this project. —Madalaine Forrest

For last week’s Earth Day, we received a press release regarding titled, “America’s 10 most polluting mountain towns.” It is not a list that Bend wants to see itself on, but there it is: seventh worst polluting “mountain town” in America. The report is troubling, and hopefully one that Bendites will fully consider. It came from Teton Gravity Research, a Jackson Hole-based organization that primarily produces ski, surf, and snowboard films—meaning, Teton Gravity is not based on some political ideology, but instead, these are people cut from the same Gor-Tex fabric many Bendites are, and that’s why their report was so keenly punishing. What is also particularly difficult to stomach is that their report is not a subjective examination of environmental habits, but is strictly ranking cities based on household carbon emissions output—and, in that regard, Bend is doing very poorly. In the notes accompanying the ranking, one of the Teton Gravity researcher states: “Now, my first impression of Bend isn’t necessarily that of an environmentally neglectful ski town.” But he goes on to explain that Bend generates 46.2 metric tons of CO2 pollution per household annually. “Considering that Bend is one of the fastest growing communities in Oregon, with over half of its residents having moved in in the last 15 years, it’s no surprise that they have struggled to accommodate their rapidly growing population,” the report continues. The report separates carbon emissions into primary sources—transportation, housing, food, goods, and services. Like the other nine cities on the list, in Bend, “transportation” is the primary contributor to carbon emissions. But, in Bend, those numbers are particularly bad—and without much hope for redemption. Transportation emissions account for roughly one-third of all emissions here and are as bad as all but three of the other cities, including the Hood River area, which is a particularly bad offender (overall, fourth worst on the list and the worst for transportation-generated emissions, with households in that region owning an average of three vehicles). The report goes on to point out that other cities—like Jackson Hole, which ranks 10th worst on the list—are putting in place specific and direct transportation systems to curb these emissions—and that their residents are responding. “Unlike Bend, Stowe, and Truckee,” says the report, “nearly a fifth of Jackson’s population utilizes the valley’s public transportation system.” But in Bend, bike commuting and public transportation remains negligible. Bend needs to take a hard look at its habits—and recognize that being an outdoor enthusiast does not necessarily translate to being a good steward of the environment. Yes, there are remarkable ski trails, mountain lakes, hiking trails and stretches of river to kayak, but do you ask how far most people drive to reach those activities? Yes, Bend has a robust public park system, but have you ever asked whether those are maintained pesticide free? Yes, there are obvious ironies—and, yes, in real numbers, Bendites are polluting.

Where The Candidates Roam Three vie for Park and Rec Director position BY PHIL BUSSE
On Monday evening, the three candidates for the Director position for the Bend Park and Recreation District (BPRD) gathered at the Deschutes County Building, and on May 6, a second debate will be hosted at Deschutes Brewery Public House. No wonder all the interest: Serving on the Board of Directors for BPRD is a critical position. There are several major public park projects underway—a new water feature park in the Deschutes River, and a new ice skating rink, to name just two—and debate still simmers over the iconic Mirror Pond. All told, BPRD sits at the center of the debate over what livability
means in Bend—and how it can be preserved. Not only charged with maintaining some of the city’s most alluring features and parks, BPRD also is debating whether to waive “system development charges” (SDCs) as a means to encourage more affordable housing, a move that some believe could help ease the housing crunch for many families. Incumbent Dan Fishkin faces two challengers. We are providing an unfiltered Q&A with each.
Dan Fishkin What three things do you most hope to accomplish if elected? If given the opportunity to continue my service on the Board of Directors, my primary goal is to oversee the completion of the Bond projects currently under construction. These Bond projects are in various stages of completion, are on schedule and on budget, and will continue to support economic growth and enhance the quality of life in Bend now and for future generations. I also am a proponent of naming rights for the Simpson Pavilion, which will help offset operating costs and reduce any taxpayer-funded required subsidy. Lastly, but most importantly, I want to continue to refine the Mirror Pond vision toward an economically viable solution that does not burden our taxpayers. What are you doing right now in service of the issues you’re most passionate about? I am currently directly involved in monitoring and constantly reviewing the finances and master plans of all of the District’s capital improvement projects to ensure that we remain on budget and on schedule, and deliver what the District committed to the voters when the General Obligation Bond was approved. Having also served on the Budget Committee for three years prior to my election to the Board, I have the experience to truly understand the depth and breadth of Parks and Rec. My only agenda is to do my best to serve my community and help enhance the quality of life in Bend for generations to come. Additionally, as a lawyer, I understand and have first-hand experience with the intricacies of a governmental agency, the role of negotiation, and the power of partnership. What is Park & Rec doing best right now? Where is it most falling short? Parks and Rec continues to be true to its mission to strengthen the community by operating and maintain parks, trails, facilities and over 1,000 recreation programs in a financially responsible manner that ensures the ability to sustain the quality of services that our community desires and expects. I believe that we are falling short in serving the Latino community, although we have recognized that chal-
Foster Fell What three things do you most hope to accomplish if elected? 1. Re-prioritize Bend Park and Recreation District (BPRD) planning and spending to more closely meet the needs of the taxpayers who support it. BPRD’s own polling shows support for neighborhood parks and a new swim and rec center as paramount needs. I think we, for example, could expand popular programs such as community gardens. (I led a multi-year urban garden effort in Burns.) I would consider installing dog park lighting for short winter days. I would push for the formation of citizen advisory committees modeled after the City of Bend to ensure that the voice of the public is heard at BPRD. 2. Following the model of Illinois, work with the City of Bend to establish Safe Park Zones. We would benefit with improved safety and access for pedestrians and bicyclists. We would gain the added effect of
lenge and developed a new a Latino Community Outreach program. Although still in the early stages, we are already seeing the impact of helping to plan and promote recreation activities that serve the needs of the Latino community. Is there a solution for Mirror Pond you most believe in? I support the goals and current vision collaboratively developed by Park and Rec., the City of Bend, the Ad Hoc Committee, and the Mirror Pond Steering Committee to reach what has been characterized as a “middle ground” between dredging Mirror Pond and the so called “Natural River” option of removing the Dam. This vision, among other things, considers enhancing habitat, fish passage, improved public
greater connectivity within the city and with the external system of trails. Through my work as co-founder of Slower/Safer/Bend, I know that neighborhood street traffic safety is uppermost on our minds. I can’t think of a more perfect way to enhance BPRD’s mission and enrich our lives. Less spending on moving automobiles expeditiously and more emphasis on revamping our streets as vibrant public spaces that support a vigorous mix of activities—why not? 3. Using humane, science-based, proven, cost-effective methods of wildlife management, we can co-exist with virtually any animal—from Canada geese to cougars. My activism on behalf of animals continues to reap rewards: We are in our fifth year of nonlethal control, and the latest goose counts show it is working splendidly. I helped organize two recent capacity meetings on cougars; as a result of these, I believe, the City of Bend will be directing ODFW to revise its policies. Continues on page 9
space and most importantly, funding sources other than tax dollars. Do you think that Park & Rec should waive SDC for affordable housing developments? Low-income housing is a community-wide livability issue and I believe that Parks and Rec needs to be a contributor to a solution. In my opinion, the shortages of available land and the high cost of land are the primary impediments to developers building affordable housing and SDCs represent a comparatively small component in the overall cost of construction. Thus the problem of affordable housing is much larger than waiving a token amount of SDCs and the solution also needs to be appropriate for an agency that collects tax dollars for the purpose of providing the community’s parks and recreation services. If waiver of SDC charges were the direction ultimately decided by the Board, I would want to ensure a dollar-for-dollar pass-through to low income residents of any such waived SDC charges. Additionally, Parks and Rec currently provides approximately $1.3 million annually in needs-based assistance for recreational programs. What are the three most important qualities for a Park & Rec Board director? The three most important qualities for a Park and Rec Board chair are open-mindedness, an ability to hear (and not just listen to) the points of your colleagues, and an ability to forge a consensus to actually “get stuff done.” What is the single most significant difference between you and your opponents? I am the only candidate who has actual experience with Parks and Rec and truly understands the workings of the organization, both from a financial as well as an operating perspective. I have no agenda other than serving all the people of our community and delivering upon the promises made to our community in connection with the 2012 Bond Measure. What are your opponents’ best qualities? My opponents’ best qualities are their willingness to serve their community in what they believe are the best policies. We are fortunate that we have citizens who are willing to step up and put in the time and energy that this volunteer position requires.

NEWS What are you doing right now in service of the issues you’re most passionate about? I am now in my second year pushing two ballot initiatives that would give citizens in the City of Bend and the Park District the right to vote “yes” or “no” for a healthy free-flowing river at the present site of Mirror Pond. This effort is my way of creating an open public process for a Mirror Pond decision, where none exists now. What is Park & Rec doing best right now? Where is it most falling short? Programs for low-income children, family, and neighborhoods. The amazing variety of recreational and educational offerings. (I might, though, look at reducing fees; I hear complaints about these costs in my door-to-door campaigning.) Certainly, we as a community need to acknowledge the stellar work of BPRD volunteers and employees. Is there a solution for Mirror Pond you most believe in? My guiding principle remains restoration of the Deschutes River to a free-flowing river at the current location of Mirror Pond. My ballot initiative would give our citizens a chance to vote for such an outcome. The so-called “Preferred Alternative” that the Mirror Pond Ad Hoc Committee has sprung upon us does not even pretend to address river health. The associated redevelopment project renders downtown Bend unrecognizable. We have, to date, no financial or environmental analysis, yet we are now asking for $5 million in State revenue to further study this project. Do you think that Park & Rec should waive SDC for afford-
able housing developments? BPRD should realize that the healthy economy that pays its bills depends on the ability of working families (including its own 353 part time employees) to find affordable housing. Certainly, the Park District should step up to the plate and do its part to help mitigate the housing crisis by waiving system development charges for affordable housing. (Another option might be for BPRD to install showers for the people who will be forced to live in its parks.) What are the three most important qualities for a Park & Rec Board director? 1. Responsiveness to meeting the needs of all. This means open, democratic, transparent, unhindered public process. 2. Accountability; e.g., willingness to accede graciously [and] cooperate with public records requests. 3. Independence of mind and spirit. What is the single most significant difference between you and your opponents? I think the incumbent, Dan Fishken, aligns himself too readily with a status quo that, of late, disregards the true needs of his constituents. I know too little about Brady Fuller, but I do admire his willingness to step into the fray. What are your opponents’ best qualities? Willingness to serve. How do you use the city’s parks? I value then as a refuge from ordinary life. I would be overjoyed with a BPRD-supported ethic that would increase opportunities to experience wildness within our growing metropolis.
Brady Fuller What three things do you most hope to accomplish if elected? If elected, I hope to work with other Board members to rapidly determine a multi-year waiver of SDCs for affordable housing and match that loss in revenue with a reduction in the District’s ambitions for new facilities. Second, I hope to advocate for improved trail infrastructure within the City, coordinated with the City and County’s transportation planning. Third, I hope to improve District collaboration with the City, OSU-Cascades, and other local governments both in planning, development of shared-use facilities, and managing risk and costs while delivering appropriate services. What are you doing right now in service of the issues you’re most passionate about? My passion is investing in students and being a positive role model. Serving as a soccer coach in the spring and fall provides me an opportunity to spend time with my own kids and their friends and build community in our neighborhood. I invest in other services in the elementary youth programs at my church. I also participate in advising local high school engineering technical programs. What is Park & Rec doing best right now? Where is it most falling short? I believe the District’s recreational programs are among the best performing work of the District. The District has learned to effectively administer many highly popular programs, including partnerships with other nonprofit and commercial groups, and has worked to remove barriers to service through the Needs Based Assistance program. The District is falling short in recognizing that the level of service the District aspires to is contributing to our region’s affordable housing crisis. Is there a solution for Mirror Pond you most believe in? I believe in a Mirror Pond solution that preserves Mirror Pond as an iconic Bend feature. I believe in pursuing stakeholder-endorsed riparian and aquatic habitat restoration and fish passage facilities, and providing dedicated river access areas. We must recognize and address long term sediment management challenges caused by maintaining a pond in the Deschutes River. Tumalo Irrigation District’s proposal to assume ownership of Pacific Power’s dam represents an opportunity to put significant responsibility in the hands of those already managing significant regional water resources. I will advocate for additional study to define important elements of the project to address uncertainty and other stakeholder concerns. Do you think that Park & Rec should waive SDC for affordable housing developments? Yes. I advocate that the Board consider a fixed dollar waiver of SDCs, annually for a limited term, to help close the funding gap for qualified affordable housing developments. The Board must prioritize what parts of its five-year, $75 million capital plan can be afforded after SDC waivers. “Affordable housing” can be interpreted to mean many things, and I am specifically advocating for workforce housing projects that will serve those earning less than 60 percent
of the median income. These affordable housing project agreements are typically funded, in-part, by federal tax credit programs and as such are highly structured deals with long term covenants that preserve the “affordable” mandate and thereby provide long term benefit for our community. What are the three most important qualities for a Park & Rec Board chair? 1. Articulate and advocate for Board policies. 2. Listen carefully to all points of view, and actively solicit input from other Board members, staff, and the community. 3. Understand the District’s business model. What is the single most significant difference between you and your opponents? I differ from both my opponents in that I have significant experience in planning, design, permitting, operation, and maintenance of public facilities, as well as in cost estimating, financial planning, and risk management. What are your opponents’ best qualities? Foster Fell appears to have strong feelings and interests, and he is passionate in expressing them. I have observed Dan Fishkin in his public service and I admire the level of respect he conveys to District staff and the public. How do you use the city’s parks? In the nearly 8 years I’ve lived in Bend, my family has played at virtually every park in town, especially our neighborhood park, skate park facilities, the Deschutes River Trail, the fishing pond and hiking trails at Shevlin Park, soccer fields, and off-leash dog areas.
SIDE NOTES BY ERIN ROOK
If you are among those that believe every day is Earth Day, then there are plenty of upcoming opportunities to make an impact. For starters, May is National Bike Month. According to My City Bikes, a public health campaign for beginner cyclists, there are plenty of perks to taking two wheels. The organization claims that riding instead of driving just three miles a day could reduce air pollution by more than 100 million nationwide. Not too shabby. Just getting started? Check out the Bend Bikes app for route suggestions and basic bike maintenance education, courtesy of the folks at Hutch’s. More of a forest dweller? You’re in luck. The USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service wants to help you improve the health of woodlands and reduce fire risk with up to $100,000 in funding for tri-county woodland owners. Funds are available to private, non-industrial properties and will go primarily toward pre-commercial thinning, with priority to high-density forests near Bend, Sisters, and LaPine. Applications are due to the USDA Redmond Service Center by May 22. If the warm weather has you thinking about floating the river, check out the upcoming open house to discuss proposed service expansion to the Ride the River shuttle (a much more environmentally-friendly option that taking two cars). The open house will be held Friday, May 1, from 11 am to 1 pm at Hawthorne Station Lobby.

Are We There Yet? Why women are still fighting for equality BY ERIN ROOK
By many accounts, 2014 was a banner year for women, and it isn’t hard to see why. From the explosion of Twitter hashtags calling attention to the harassment and abuse of women, such as #YesAllWomen and #WhyIStayed, to the Columbia University student who carried around her mattress in protest of her alleged sexual assault, woman have been making their voices heard in creative and powerful ways. And people are starting to listen. California successfully passed legislation requiring colleges to adopt affirmative consent policies. President Barack Obama created a White House Task Force to Protect Students from Sexual Assault. The nation finally started to believe the multiple allegations of rape against the actor who portrayed TV’s favorite dad, Bill Cosby. Women are also increasingly being recognized for their contributions, winning awards and rising to positions of power. Mary Barra became the first woman to run
General Motors. And Malala Yousafzai, after surviving an assassination attempt by the Taliban, became the youngest person to every receive the Nobel Peace Prize. It’s in this climate of increasing opportunities for women that Hillary Rodham Clinton emerges as the likely Democratic nominee for the 2016 presidential race and, based on recent polls of likely candidates, a strong contender for the presidency. And yet, even as women are on the rise, they still face real obstacles. They continue to be underrepresented in positions of leadership (though some, like Woman of the Year Dr. Shirley Metcalf, are bucking that trend), underpaid as compared to their male colleagues, and under the persistent threat of sexual assault. In our 18th annual Women’s Issue, we explore some of the biggest challenges facing women today, and the ways they are rising to meet them.

Power to the People
COCC president Dr. Shirley Metcalf serves as a role model for women and minorities BY ERIN ROOK
IN MARCH, DR. SHIRLY METCALF BECAME THE FIRST WOMAN PRESIDENT AT COCC. PHOTO BY MATT FOX. If Dr. Shirley Metcalf had led with her personal motto—“it’s all about the people,” a turn of phrase by way of former U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell’s book It Worked for Me: In Life and Leadership—it might have come off as a shtick. Instead, Dr. Metcalf, the fifth president of Central Oregon Community College and the first woman to hold the position, spends the first 10 minutes or so of an 8 am interview making small talk. Despite the early hour, she is energized and engaged. Over the course of the conversation, Metcalf talks about her relationship with a variety of community members, from grocery clerks to Mt. Bachelor staff. “I go to the grocery store,” she says, “they call me Shirley.” After the media coverage of her appointment to the presidency, staff at C.E. Lovejoy’s would tell her, “Shirley, we didn’t know you’re a celebrity.” After spending a year as the interim president for the college, Metcalf officially took the position in March. And she knows their names and their stories. Like David, a grocery clerk and former COCC student who is finishing his degree at OSU-Cascades and was recently promoted to management. Metcalf points to him as one of the school’s success stories. Genuine and disarmingly friendly, Metcalf is the top ad-
ministrator at COCC, but she is hardly a bureaucratic; her focus is on individuals, and their unique experiences and needs. She says the Hawaiian concept of “ohana”—a word that describes one’s extended family and community—is her unofficial theme for the college. “No one gets left behind or forgotten,” she explains, referencing the children’s movie Lilo & Stitch. “We have an open door mission.” It may be her first time serving in the role of president, but Metcalf knows a thing or two about running community colleges. Just last year, Metcalf was honored by University of Hawaii Community Colleges (she’d previously served as chief academic officer at Hawaii Community College) for her contributions to the growth and innovation of the community colleges over the years. She also has served as executive vice president for instruction and vice president for advancement at Lake Washington Technical College, and is a member of the Affiliate Council of the American Association of Community Colleges. And just as her focus on community colleges has been consistent and intentional, so too has her relationship with Bend. Metcalf first visited the area on her honeymoon some 30 years ago. (The “Most Improved Woman Skier” trophy she earned in a ski program at Mt. Bachelor sits on display
in her office.) Over the years, she and her husband continued to visit, finally moving here in 2011 when Metcalf was hired as COCC’s Dean of Extended Learning. During her time at COCC, she also did a brief stint as interim vice president for instruction and, most recently, interim president. But Metcalf didn’t apply for the job as president. In fact, the absence of any intention to vie for the presidency was a prerequisite for taking on an interim role, after the previous president departed a year ago. Then, when the first choice candidate backed out after a death in the family, the search committee made an offer to another, but that candidate was no longer interested. As they racked their brains for the next step, an obvious choice emerged: “What about Shirley?” COCC College Relations Director Ron Paradis, who was present for board deliberations, says the vote to confirm Metcalf was “as close to unanimous as you get on a college campus.” “When they started talking to the folks on campus, that’s when they realized that the right move was to just ask her to be the president,” Paradis explains. “She had done such a great job as the interim and she had such great support.” When Metcalf started her career as an educator, she never dreamed she would end up in the president’s office. Growing up in Hawaii in the 1950s, before Title IX, young women didn’t have as many career options as they do today. “When I was younger, there were only two options for women: teaching or nursing,” she explains. Not being terribly fond of the sight of blood, she pursued an academic path. Her first course load was a sign of the times, if not her future prospects. Metcalf started out teaching shorthand, business machines, and income taxes. She says she was lucky to have strong mentors. In 1979, she was selected to be the chancellor’s administrative intern while maintaining her faculty status. “It was a great opportunity to see what administration is like. That’s when I thought, ‘I can do this,’” she says, adding that she was drawn to the opportunity to play a broader, more visionary role. Metcalf says it’s not uncommon for women to stumble upon college leadership positions. In her 1990 dissertation, she studied the similarities and differences between women community college administrators and female corporate leaders. “The women business executives knew their path, they knew they wanted to be a vice president by the time they were 40, they knew they wanted to be a president,” Metcalf explains. “Community college administrators were like me.” As she advanced in her career, she found herself among the vanguard. Even today, women comprise just one third of community college presidents, and Asian Americans less than 2 percent. Metcalf says it’s important for college leadership to reflect student demographics. “When you look at the students who are in community colleges, most of them are women. A lot of them are single parents, they work part or full time, many of them are minorities,” Metcalf says. “As opportunities for women increase, hopefully the percentages [in leadership] will increase.” Oregon is already ahead of the national average, with 10 of the state’s 17 community colleges currently led by women. And in Central Oregon, both colleges have female presidents. But while Metcalf says she values the opportunity to serve as a role model for others, she doesn’t see her accomplishments as part of a larger political cause. “When you say ‘feminist,’ some people are so committed to a cause that they cannot see sometimes the other person’s views or values,” she explains. “I wouldn’t say I’m a feminist with a capital F, but I’m very proud of women, and I would like to support women in leadership roles.” For those young women who aspired to academic leadership positions, Metcalf offers three points of advice: Get an education, have passion for the job, and find a mentor.

While most people think of April 14 as the 11th hour of income tax preparation, for half the population it has a different kind of economic significance. It’s the point in the year—combined with the previous 12 months—at which women will have finally earned as much as men did in the previous calendar year. Dubbed Equal Pay Day, it is a stark reminder that even in 2015, women still don’t earn the same paycheck as their male colleagues. Despite the fact that gender-based pay disparities have been illegal since the passage of the Equal Pay Act in 1963, women make about 80 cents for every dollar paid to a man doing the same work in Oregon. The gap has narrowed, but it remains and grows larger as women age, according to a recent analysis by Fortune. Some fields are more equal than others. Bureau of Labor Statistics data shows that female media producers, despite being a minority in their field, actually make more than their male colleagues. Counselors and biological scientists are both near parity. But when it comes to personal financial advisors, physicians, and surgeons, women make less than 65 percent what men do. “In the political realm, when I was there, I had pay equality,” says former Bend City Councilor Jodie Barram. “The men who sat alongside me got paid $200 a month, just like me,” she quips. Certainly pay equity in government work seems expected, given established salary structures and the ability of public records law to expose inconsistencies. But in the private sector, these systems may not be in place. The result: Even in jobs traditionally held by women, men earn more for their work. According to a study published in the March issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association, male nurses make considerably more than female ones. While the average gap was $5,100 per year, some nursing specialties saw even more dramatic disparities. For instance, the study found that male nurse anesthetists make on average $17,290 more annually than their female counterparts. So why aren’t wages closer to equal across the board? There are a number of theories, but no consensus. Researchers have honed in on some “explained” factors: things like fewer educational opportu-
nities and less workforce experience. Still, even after accounting for these influences, a gap remains. Economist Claudia Goldin writes in the April 2014 issue of American Economic Review that there are a few reasons this could be happening. “Some would claim that earnings differences for the same position are due to actual discrimination. To others it is due to women’s lower ability to bargain and their lesser desire to compete,” Goldin writes. “Still others blame it on differential employer promotion standards due to gender differences in the probability of leaving.” In her view, the biggest contributor to unequal pay is a system that rewards workaholics and penalizes those who need or desire greater flexibility with regard to where and when they work. “[The solution] must involve alterations in the labor market, in particular changing how jobs are structured and remunerated to enhance temporal flexibility,” Goldin writes. “The gender gap in pay would be considerably reduced and might even vanish if firms did not have an incentive to disproportionately reward individuals who worked long hours and who worked particular hours.” Women, who are disproportionately responsible for caring for children and other family members, are more likely to benefit from this kind of flexibility. It could also increase the number of women in leadership positions. “I think about how organizations—nonprofits, NGOs—that invest in indigenous cultures and focus on following the research are saying, ‘Hey look, if we raise up the status of women in these populations, the whole population does better,’” explains Janet Huerta, executive director of Saving Grace. “And yet, we’re not applying that here.” What would such a world look like? Childcare would be subsidized, she says, and mothers would have the resources to make decisions about their work-life balance and whether or not to work outside the home. “A lot of times it’s not a choice,” Huerta says. “It’s a luxury to be able to feel like there’s enough money coming in that you can stay home with the kids. Or that dad is going to be a stay at home dad.”

Where the Women Are Meet your local lady leaders BY ERIN ROOK
More than one in four businesses in the Bend-Redmond area are woman-owned. With women comprising 51 percent of the population that may not seem significant. But it is enough for Bend-Redmond Metropolitan Statistical Area to rank 20th in the nation for woman-owned businesses, according to a recent study by consumer advocacy site NerdWallet. In the top city—Santa Fe, New Mexico— about one-third of businesses are owned by women. The analysis found that locally, women-owned businesses are predominately solo enterprises—fewer than one in five have paid employees. And yet, they bring in on average just over $100,000 in revenue each year. Why does this matter? A 2014 study by David Newton and Mikhail Simutin published in Management Science found that the pay gap between women and men is greatest when the person signing the checks is a man.

Native American women face high rates of sexual assault BY ERIN ROOK
AT LEAST 3 IN 5 NATIVE AMERICAN WOMEN WILL BE SEXUALLY ASSAULTED IN THEIR LIFETIME. AS OF MARCH 2015, TRIBES NOW HAVE JURISDICTION TO PROSECUTE NON-INDIAN OFFENDERS. PHOTO BY ERIN ROOK.
Warm Springs tribal member Alyssa Macy has represented indigenous women globally at the United Nations World Conference on Indigenous Peoples. She also has survived multiple incidents of sexual assault. Unfortunately, for Native American women, the latter of these experiences is more common than the former. “The research shows that Native women are victims of sexual crimes at extraordinarily high rates, and we’re talking three out of five women have been assaulted in their lifetime,” Macy explains. “I can sit down with my group of friends that are Native and every single one of them has been sexually assaulted, raped, or experienced some kind of molestation as a child, and I think that’s really devastating to Native communities.” But most of the time, the threat comes from offenders outside the tribe. Non-Indian men commit the majority of these assaults—67 percent according to a brief from the National Congress of American Indians. That’s not to imply stranger assault—most survivors knew the perpetrator and intra-racial dating and marriage are far more common among Native American women than women of other races. That ratio is reflected in Macy’s own experiences with sexual assault. Two of the three times she was assaulted, the perpetrators were non-Native men. In the third incident, she was raped by a Native acquaintance following a date. “I was molested as a child while living in New Mexico by a man in our neighborhood and my fourth grade teacher,” Macy recalls. “Both of these men were non-Native and I only told my mom about the teacher. Nothing ever came about with the meetings with [Child Protective Services].” She says she opted to not report the 2007 date rape in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. The man seemed like “a good catch” and she invited him in after an evening singing karaoke. But that’s when things took a turn for worse—Macy says he pushed himself on her, ignoring her crying and pleading to stop. “I just felt like if I were to tell, I would be treated as many other women are, like it’s your fault,” she says. “I didn’t want to do that to myself so I just did nothing.” Because Macy didn’t report the assault, it’s not included in statistics. That’s why she thinks the already high numbers are likely an underestimate. “I think the numbers are probably higher than what is reported,” she says. “Like myself, I am sure there are women out there that are too afraid to tell, scared of being stigmatized, or do not have faith in the judicial system that anything will happen.” Distrust in the system is understandable. Until last month, most tribes lacked jurisdiction to prosecute non-Indian offenders of sexual and domestic violence. When the Violence Against Women Act was reauthorized in 2013, it provided for the first time a mechanism for tribes to prosecute. It began by approving pilot programs in three tribes, including the Umatilla in Oregon. That option opened up to all tribes March 7. “Even a violent crime committed by a non-Indian husband against his Indian wife, in the presence of her Indian children, in their home on the Indian reservation, could not be prosecuted by the tribe,” wrote Associate Attorney General Tony West in a letter to the first three tribes approved for the pilot program. “This jurisdictional scheme has proved ineffective in ensuring public safety. Too often, crimes have gone unprosecuted and unpunished, and
violence has escalated.” Specifically, U.S. attorneys declined to prosecute more than half of the violent crimes that occurred on Native American reservations, 67 percent of which were related to sexual abuse, the U.S. Government Accountability Office reported in 2010. And on some reservations, a Native woman is more than 10 times as likely to be murdered as women in the United States generally, Associate Attorney General Perrelli testified in 2011 before the Committee on Indian Affairs on Violence Against Native American Women. “So, hypothetically, a non-Indian man could come into Warm Springs, rape a woman and we’d have all the evidence, and you cannot prosecute him,” Macy explains. “And that has been very scary for Native women here in the state of Oregon, and nationally here in the United States, because we haven’t had the ability to prosecute.” In Warm Springs, Chief Tribal Prosecutor Nancy Seyler says the tribal court is working on rolling out its approach to prosecuting non-Indian offenders of violent crimes. “If we have a non-Indian living on the reservation and there’s a domestic violence incident on one of our women, we would have to have them appear in civil court,” Seyler explains. “We can’t house non-Indians in our jail.” Seyler says such cases are few and far between in Warm Springs and speculates that non-Native violence against Native women is more common in the Midwest, where reservations are closer to urban areas. “Rarely does it happen. It seems like I’ve had one case, but that was several years ago,” Seyler recalls. Still, she says that doesn’t mean these crimes aren’t occurring. “I think overall with any domestic violence it’s under reported. It doesn’t matter where you live.” Macy says media portrayals of Native American women, and Native people in general, as sexualized and addicted, contribute to high rates of violence. “We are Native mascots—derogatory comical characters. We are the sexy Pocahontas— short buckskin shirts with our bosoms hanging out. We are portrayed as demure, weak, and not in important roles in our societies,” Macy explains. “When media paints a picture of us as this, we are weakened in the eyes of the larger public and we are personally weakened because these images impact our self-image.” Fortunately, there are organizations working to counter the high rates of victimization and support survivors of violence. On the Warm Springs reservation, Victims of Crime Services provides resources including crisis intervention, advocacy, support groups, and victims’ compensation. Across the tri-county area, Saving Grace provides services to survivors of domestic and sexual assault, with a commitment to cultural competency for Native American survivors. And that cultural awareness, Macy says, is key. “I think it’s important that these agencies understand our communities,” she says. “We are strong, resilient, humble, and I know so many Native women doing amazing things in our communities. We are not the things the media says we are.” To access support from Warm Springs Victims of Crime Services, call 541-553-2293 during regular hours, or reach an on-call advocate after hours by contacting the Warm Springs Police Department at 541-553-1171. Saving Grace offers a 24-hour help line at 541-389-7021.

A half dozen ways to be a better man BY ERIN ROOK
Feminism isn’t just for women. Despite the prefix, wanting equality for a group that comprises a slight majority of the population is a cause we should all be able to get behind. But, without bras to burn or once-shaven leg hair to grow in, what does solidarity look like? “Learn about the issue, decide what you want to do, and speak up about it. It does not need to be big,” says Janet Huerta, executive director for Saving Grace, a nonprofit advocating for survivors of domestic and sexual violence in Central Oregon. “Do you have sons or nephews? What do you tell them about how to treat girls? Do you hear other guys telling jokes or putting down women? Do you laugh or not? Do you tell them that you don’t want to hear it?” she asks. “It’s the little stuff that adds up, that makes a difference, even if it doesn’t seem like it.” That means you don’t need to sign up for Women’s Studies 101 or start referring to the past as “herstory.” A little effort can go a long way toward soothing the sting of patriarchy. Plus, as Huerta points out, ladies are totally into guys who stand up for women. 1. Don’t be a jerk. It should go without saying, but if you so much as pretend to care about women, you shouldn’t be assaulting or harassing them—physically, sexually, or emotionally. If you think that women are somehow beneath you…you’re probably not reading this. But, if you are, get thee to a competent therapist post haste. 2. Pay attention to how other people treat women. No one is asking you to literally walk in someone else’s stilettos, but you might
be surprised what you see and hear when you start to pay attention. Observe how coworkers talk to the women in the office, or how friends treat waitresses. 3. Listen to—and believe—women. When women tell you something is offensive, objectifying, or unwelcome, pay attention. Not only are they the experts on their own lives, scientists say they’re getting smarter faster than men. So sit back and learn something. 4. Seek out women’s perspectives. Read books by female authors, watch television and films created by women, rock out to female musicians, and reach out to the women at the top of their fields when looking for an expert. (Recommendation: anything by Toni Morrison, or “Broad City.”) 5. Mind your language. While most of us know what counts as “fighting words,” there are plenty of other ways to put down women with words. “You throw like a girl” is not appropriate, unless you’re saying it as a compliment, like the Oregon State softball pitchers who throw blazing fast and furious! 6. Be part of the solution. Volunteer with or donate funds to organizations working to empower women and protect their rights. Not sure where to go? The World MUSE, the force behind the annual MUSE Women’s Conference, is a good place to start.

What does feminism mean to you? It means treating women as equal human beings in all endeavors. Equal rights and treatment for women. It means equality and empathy. As soon as you start seeing hate and bitterness flung about, it's no longer feminism; it's misandry. It means I believe in equality for women and men. Activism for woman's rights. Equality for women. Feminism, at this point, is a power grab. Women have already achieved parity with men. There is no reason to keep beating the drum of feminism. Independence, equality. Female Supremacy. It means to stand up for equality of any and every female identifying person. His(sic)torically, then multi-varied, often conflicting, and desperately needed ideologies and actions that continue to dismantle patriarchy, slowly but surely. Women being equal to men in terms of rights, pay, treatment, etc. The understanding that our culture favors men and a belief that it shouldn’t. A social and political movement to move society from a patriarchal system in which women are oppressed to one which recognizes women as full human beings with the same access to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness as men. Recognizing the existence of sexism & discrimination, and working to rise above it. A women's movement for equal rights.

HORSE RACING—Although the Kentucky Derby really isn’t about the horse racing (it is just two minutes of sporting after all), and is more about an early summertime festival of mint julips and wide-brimmed bonnets, my money is on American Pharoah for the triple crown! 2 – 5 pm, Brasada Ranch, 16986 SW Brasada Ranch Rd. $40.

BY ANNE PICK
SARA JANE WILTERMOOD
First Friday Party Featuring Bobby Lindstrom and Mean Ed Sharlet “The blues,” Steve Martin once explained, “just get me so blue.” But this First Friday, Bobby Lindstrom brings upbeat, bluesy rock to the Crow’s Feet Commons courtyard. With raspy vocals, high energy, and passion, Lindstrom plays a set of his favorite blues covers mixed in with original songs. 7-9 pm. Friday, May 1. Crow’s Feet Commons, 875 NW Brooks St. No cover.
HARDLY SITTING AROUND, MIA DYSON IS ON THE MOVE. 5/4 AT VOLCANIC THEATRE PUB. PHOTO BY MIA DYSON.
There should be a saying that goes: when you can rock a mohawk, then you can talk. Australian singer/songwriter/guitarist Mia Dyson has surely earned the right, and not just because of her curly, center-stripe haircut. This accomplished musician will appear for the first time ever in Bend at the Volcanic Theatre Pub on May 4, following the expected stop in Portland and an unexpected stop in Kimberly, Oregon, along the way. Dyson’s second album Parking Lots put her on the map, winning “Best Blues & Roots Album” at the 2005 Australian Recording Industry Association Music Awards (ARIA). Her fourth album The Moment, released in 2012, was also nominated for that honor, and her fifth album Idyllwild, which came out last year as a CMJ Top 100, continues to get four-star ratings, though it has a slightly different sound than Dyson’s earlier work. (True to its name, Idyllwild brings a bit more wild into Dyson’s typical idyll blues.) But even as the recognition of her talent grows, she still stays true to the music. “Just continuing to make music seems to be the greatest accomplishment,” Dyson says. “Those milestones go by and then they are gone and you need to keep moving. The music industry keeps moving; it is precarious. Making a creative life is more challenging—to still love it and be able to enjoy it. I enjoy it a lot more than I used to. When you start out, you have false assumptions about how everything works, now it is just about making the music, and the illusions have mostly been swept away.” Earlier this year, Dyson received a $15,000 recording grant from the Phonographic Performance Company of Australia and the Australia Council. She plans to use these funds to record three EPs in three different cities with three different producers. Her latest style
in diversifying her work is recording less at one time, and spending time in the studio more often. “It is hard to develop the skill of recording when those events are so far apart,” she says. “Now that I have recorded five albums, I know that style—now I want to try another way.” Dyson is always looking to push the limits of her music, which prompted her move to Los Angeles from Australia in 2009. “Los Angeles is a really inspiring place to be,” she says. “I’ve dug in a little more and made the U.S. more home in the last few years. It has a reputation in the world as a big, dirty city, but it is a great, inspiring city.” And, she has taken that inspiration on the road. “I love the different parts of the country; there are more extremes here in the States,” she says. “Audiences are pretty similar [in Australia and the United States], though America has a deeper history in music. I feel like audiences here are more steeped in the history, and we are like the little brother who is trying to catch up. I enjoy touring Australia because it is familiar and it is home, but the States is new territory.” Dyson says that the “scale” is the biggest difference between playing in the United States and Australia. “You run out of places to play in Australia,” she says. “There are really only eight major cities there, and 100 or more major cities in the U.S. You could tour here for two years.” Mia Dyson 8 pm, Monday, May 4 Volcanic Theatre Pub, 70 SW Century Dr. $5
Mixtapers of the world, UNITE! BY JOSH GROSS

Hobbs the Band Hobbs the Band has been burning up the Central Oregon music scene since they first debuted at the Sisters Folk Festival in 2012. The progressive blues rock band comprises several familiar faces including Hobbs Magarét, Patrick Pearsall, Kaleb Kelleher, Aaron Andre Miller, and Jim Goodwin. The post-industrial blues rock sound incorporates elements of funk, psychedelia, and shredding Texas guitar riffs to create unique, yet incredibly listenable tunes. Songs range in theme from a tribute to the band’s inspiration from Stevie Ray to laser beams and space commanders. 9 pm12:30 am. Friday, May 1. Astro Lounge, 939 NW Bond St. $5.
In America, we celebrate work on Labor Day. But in the rest of the world, they do it on May Day, the first of that flower-filled month, which is also the date that massive demonstrations in 1886 helped to establish the eight-hour workday, with much resistance on behalf of the robber barons. So, in solidarity, we made a mixtape of work and union songs, including everything from classics by Woody Guthrie and Pete Seeger to neo-classics like Dead Prez’s hip-hop retelling of the worker exploitation in George Orwell’s Animal Farm.
Mexican Gunfight While Portland-based band Mexican Gunfight formed in 2006, the four old friends have worked together in various combinations since around 1985. The band incorporates bluesy grit, country lyricism, and the soulfulness of gospel into their specialized brand of rock and roll. Some songs are tinged with Latin and jazz, which gives the band a broad spectrum of sound and influence. While the band often leans more towards the easy listening side of rock and roll, they are all incredibly talented musicians who know how to jam when the time calls for it. 9 pm. Saturday, May 2. Volcanic Theatre Pub, 70 SW Century Dr. $5.

Three is The Magic Number Redmond hip-hop trio defies expectations BY PHIL BUSSE
We are sitting outside at Crows Feet Commons, and I’m talking with Tyler Martin and Lion Lovechild, two members from NRG Tribe, an up-and-coming hiphop trio from Redmond. They are telling me about auras, and about how the third member of their group was drawn to them because of one of their indigo auras. No, it is not what I expected from a hip-hop band from Redmond. “We’re hippie skater kids,” explains Lovechild. Both are wearing their baseball caps backward, and they lean back into their seats in the bright sun. They are relaxed and easy-going. “We’re the counter-culture of hip-hop,” explains Lovechild. “Its not all about the clubs, or the girls.” His voice is soft and relaxed while we are talking, but on NRG Tribe’s recorded songs and at shows, Lovechild has direct, fast vocals brimming with energy. The two cite Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin as favorite, early influences and talk more like they are espousing Rastafarian philosophy than street-smart badassness. “Faith, love, hope,” says Martin. “Happiness,” adds Lovechild, noting what they have found to be the consistencies in various religions, and around which they have gathered what they describe as their spirituality. Nope, not at all what I expected from a hip-hop band from Redmond. On Monday, NRG Tribe will perform for their third stage show. Martin and Lovechild have been friends for years, bonding at the Redmond skatepark. Several months ago, they performed on a small—like really tiny—stage in Prineville and then, a month ago, performed at Lava Raps, Volume 1 at the Domino Room, a new local showcase for hip-hop artists. They were one of two audience favorites and, as such, won a spot as the openers for Rittz this Monday; their third show.

Typical U of O—go big or go home. Their annual Cinema Pacific Film Festival features films from countries surrounding the Pacific Ocean.

But we recommend the trek to also partake in the Fringe Festival on May 2. From a demonstration of the Philippine-invented first karaoke machine, to a live performance by Filipino filmmaker Kidlat Tahimik to an interactive martial arts photo booth, this is a film festival that will surely keep your attention.

The Portland May Day Coalition strives to keep the workers’ equality fires burning in 2015, though much more peacefully than 1886 in Chicago. In what is now dubbed International Workers’ Day lies the incident that was most formative to our current standard of an eight-hour workday. The famed “Haymarket affair” began as a peaceful, organized rally in Haymarket Square for the eight-hour work day with the same pay, and escalated into a dynamite bomb being thrown at police in retaliation to several workers reportedly being gunned down. More shooting ensued, killing workers, civilians, and police. Inequalities still exist in the workplace; take a non-violent stand for the working person. 2 pm. South Park Blocks.
rogue river saturday 2
Elk Mountain Highland Games and May Day Festival Before International Workers’ Day, there was a much different May Day, complete with flowers, maypoles, and frivolity. The May Day tradition of placing a basket of flowers or sweets on your neighbors’ doorsteps, ringing the doorbell, and running away is a more modern practice in North America that has fallen out of vogue in recent years. Maypoles have been around for centuries, and are typically a European celebration of erecting a pole of various heights, decorating it, and dancing around it. Many believe the event has pagan roots and is a type of worship to heathen gods, others say it is a simple, joyful celebration of spring and summer. Either way, Southern Oregon has jazzed it up a bit with some friendly Scottish heavy athletics and an edged weapon competition. 9 am-5 pm. Evans Valley Education and Community Center. $7, adults. $5, youth. Children 10 and under are free.

ART WATCH BY KELSEY ROOK
Our Artist of the Month Tracie Broughton paints underwater (well, not literally) BY KELSEY ROOK
ARTWORK BY TRACIE BROUGHTON.
In the six years that Portland artist Tracie Broughton has been a fine art painter, the prolific painter has embarked on ambitious projects with a distinctive style suggesting a much longer career. Broughton is a graphic designer by trade whose murals and lifelike canvases evoke a joyful liveliness in both form and substance. The photographic quality of her paintings—from her effervescent divers to her gracefully buoyant pachyderms—is arresting. In her swimmer and elephant series, her subjects are painted from an underwater perspective, bathed in bubbles and movement, as if caught by the lens of a deep sea diver. These moments of grace and joyful abandon evoke the kind of emotion in the viewer that only an experienced artist can muster. We can surely expect more from Broughton in the years to come—that is, when she isn’t busy teaching afterschool art classes and looking for gallery representation. Source Weekly: I love your paintings of the Portland cityscape. Have you been inspired to paint anything in the Bend landscape? Tracie Broughton: As a matter of fact when I moved to Oregon in 1994 I hadn’t been painting at all since college. The job that brought me here (Jostens Yearbook Publishing representative) required lots of driving throughout the state, and it was one of those first trips to beautiful Central Oregon and Bend that inspired me to start painting; so here I am 20 years later finally in full swing. With luck I’ll do some plein air painting around Bend this summer. SW: Your paintings are so vibrant and lifelike—do you favor acrylics for the unmuted quality they can give to a canvas? How did you develop this style? TB: I do love acrylics for their drying speed. I often start with a very dark canvas and build up from the deepest shadows. Acrylics allow me to introduce new color quickly without it being affected too much by what’s underneath. Painting with oils, on the other hand, is a luxurious experience, which I enjoy as well. One out of six paintings I’ll start with acrylics and, if the painting calls for it, finish with oils. My style has been slow to evolve and, perhaps, still under construction. The good news about that is not feeling tied to
expectations. The challenge is trying to be recognized while being free to paint whatever I want. SW: Your swimmer and elephant series are studies of movement and gravity/buoyancy. Why are you drawn to painting objects suspended in water? On a side note, these paintings seem so technically difficult! TB: My first figure in water was a cannonball diver which was titled “Brave Joy.” I painted it to celebrate that wonderful moment of letting go and doing something for the sheer fun of it, even if it requires great courage. The face of the figure was obscured as it was an inner-self-portrait. That’s how my business name became Cannonball Art. Aside from that I’ve always enjoyed watery topics. You’re right, painting figures in water is tricky but it’s also really fun. The subjects are uplifting, and the underwater environment of refracted and reflected light with skewed color and low gravity excites my eye and keeps me interested long enough to actually finish and then some. SW: Can you tell me about how your experiences working as a teaching artist have shaped your process as a painter? TB: Teaching always helps you understand something that you already know just a little bit better, and it helps me consider what’s important about my process. Mostly it makes me feel extremely grateful for the opportunities I had to learn art in school, and to see myself as an artist from a young age and for the rest of my life whether I make art every day or not. SW: What are you working on right now? TB: One large cannonball diver, which should be ready to put on the wall at Bishop’s Barbershop next week; two small, very traditional, still lifes that look nothing like anything else I paint; a big cityscape of the Montgomery Park building in Portland, a dog portrait, and a big swimming elephant, with some drawings underway for a painting of old time orchard workers in Hood River. Broughton’s work can be found online at traciebroughton.blogspot. com, and will appear on the cover next issue, and at Bishops throughout the month of May, as the Source’s artist-of-the-month.
One of Bend’s most celebrated artists, master printmaker and Atelier 6000 (A6) founder Patricia Clark, celebrates her 80th birthday this year. Her impressive works, which reflect a fascination with the natural world that spans six decades, will be on display at two galleries during First Friday and throughout the month of May. Her exhibit “Marks“ at Piacentini Books is a collection of sketchbooks containing the artist’s investigations of form, line, and shadow that inform her printmaking process. The refined works on display at A6’s May exhibit, “Clark @ 80: Six Decades of Marks,” is the product of the sketchbook drawings; the two shows create a harmonious reflection of an artist’s process and maturation over 60 years of mark making. Clark founded A6 in 2007 after moving to Bend as a retiree from the Arts Department of the University of California at Long Beach. The nonprofit printmaking studio is where Clark produces her work these days; it is also where untold numbers of schoolchildren have been introduced to printmaking and book arts, where local printmakers have created new works and learned from one another, and where the community has encountered art at regular exhibits and art talks hosted in the space. “My intent is to establish a place for learning and inspiration—a studio-workshop where students learn directly from master artist teachers,” said Clark. Six such artists reflect on printmaking’s influence on their creative process in a new book by Clark, titled “Marks”— available for sale at A6. Clark herself will give an art talk “A Life in Marks,” on Friday, May 8 at 6 pm in the A6 Gallery. Clark’s current work is heavily influenced and inspired by the Central Oregon landscape—the artist has continued her prolific production as she nears her 80th year with an eye on the unique ecology of the High Desert. The artist’s process of ordering the chaos present in the natural world, which she calls “mapping,” reveals the patterns and rhythms of nature’s own mark making. “It is a mapping of visions or secrets hidden in desert, sea, forest, rock strata, space and time, and patterns of the universe’s galaxies,” said Clark. Both shows offer Bend’s art lovers to explore one of its most beloved artists— and to celebrate the long career of an artist and teacher whose work supporting community arts education and the development of printmaking and book arts in Central Oregon is a gift to the entire community.

CHOW From Galveston Avenue to Oblivion Bend’s newest brew joint fills in an already packed street BY KEVIN GIFFORD
SHOULD GALVESTON BE RENAMED BEER BOULEVARD? PHOTO BY KEVIN GIFFORD.
There are now officially too many great beer spots around Bend’s downtown and nearby west side to visit in one goaround—at least if you want to keep your liver and headspace fresh. Over the past year or so alone, the area around Galveston Avenue—home of the already-popular 10 Barrel and Brother Jon’s Public House—has become increasingly crowded with the opening of a growler-fill joint, a food truck pod with built-in beer bar, a wine lounge, and an outdoor beer garden in front of Aspect Board Shop. (And let’s not forget Westside Tavern, Bend’s top choice when it’s 1:30 am and you just don’t want to go home.) Now, in the site of the gone-but-not-forgotten Westside Café & Bakery (1005 NW Galveston, between Aspect and Versante Pizza), the westside avenue is about to see yet another beer destination. Oblivion Brewing Co. began distributing around Bend and beyond starting in late summer 2013, opening up shop with a single half-barrel system at first, but—as passersby along Galveston have no doubt noticed the past few weeks—they’re about to have a much more physical presence in the scene. “We weren’t really looking to start a pub at all,” Oblivion business manager Meghann Butschy told the Source. “The opportunity came about, though, and it felt like we’re at just
about the right point in our history to seize upon it.” Meghann, alongside co-owner and head brewer Darin Butschy, are hardly strangers to beer. Darin’s been involved with beer since the early homebrewing era of the 1980s, becoming head brewer at SLO Brew in San Luis Obispo, California, in 1989. (The brewery was purchased by Firestone Walker several years later.) A ski trip brought him to Bend and one of the first batches of Jubelale inspired him to stay. Since then, Darin has worked a variety of jobs before he and Meghann had enough equipment to launch a brewery of their own. Now Oblivion’s running a full 10-barrel system, part of the reason Polar Star Pale Ale and Backside IPA are now regulars on tapwalls across Central Oregon. The Galveston taproom will serve as the nerve center for Oblivion’s operations, although the actual brewing will continue at the company’s production facility. Expect a variety of Oblivion taps available, along with a full restaurant menu and a back patio for summertime reverie. There’s even a breakfast menu planned from Friday to Sunday, so the old Westside Café spirit will survive to some extent. “Our menu is geared around and paired with our beer, from appetizers to desserts,” Meghann noted. “We’ll be starting with six Oblivion beers, but we’ll definitely be adding more as we grow.”
Of course, the food’s only part of the picture. Oblivion’s most popular beers are undoubtedly Polar Star and the IPA—both smooth, refreshing, and reliable, although neither major standouts in our jam-packed pale ale scene. To beer nerds, the brewery’s track record with one-offs is the real draw. Think about Snowblivion, which showed up in places like Cabin 22, Pizza Mondo, and Broken Top Bottle Shop a few months back. A dark, hoppy winter ale, the 6.8% beer was filled with chocolate notes and a nice, hoppy scent—one that was only further improved with the keg they released that was aged in Bendistillery’s rye whiskey barrels. Construction is currently reaching a crescendo at the taproom, which Meghann said is slated for a mid-May opening. Once it launches, tourists and local beer nuts can tour the length and breadth of Central Oregon’s beer offerings without even having to leave Galveston Avenue—and, hey, if you get the munchies, the food options aren’t bad either. “We feel super excited to be part of the growing west side and the culture,” Meghann said. “We’re still self-distributing right now, but hopefully we’ll have a distributor a year from now and become available throughout the state.”

Spring into Wellness! SHOWING OFF THEIR BETTER HALVES.
Art & Wine, Oh My! offers a simple concept: people getting together to paint and have some drinks. “It’s all about creating community and getting to know one another,” says owner Kaie Stoops. The mobile paint-and-sip business opened last year, and hosts both public events (open to the community three to four nights per week) as well as private events for company outings and other group occasions. Inspired by similar businesses catching on throughout the southern U.S., Stoops felt that the Pacific Northwest, and Bend’s community in particular, provided the perfect ingredients for a similar concept. Sort of like a mobile art studio and cocktail cart, the easel, canvas, paints, and other supplies are included, but the location changes week to week, rotating among local venues such as Level 2, Broken Top Bottle Shop, La Rosa Brookswood, and Worthy Brewing. Each event is hosted by a local artist and features a theme, from Van Gogh’s Starry Night with a Bend twist to Andy Warhol-style pop art renditions of local beers. Although many participate as a date night or a social outing with friends, companions aren’t required. “Some come in groups, some come by themselves,” says Stoops. “It ends up being a wonderful experience for everyone.” In addition to providing regularly scheduled public painting nights and private events, Art & Wine, Oh My! offers a charitable program called “Paint It Forward,” where each month a local non-profit charitable organization is selected to receive proceeds from the night’s painting event.

Those Boots Are Made For Hiking
Bill Sullivan pounds the pavement with his updated tour book BY PHIL BUSSE
Since I first moved to Oregon two decades ago, Bill Sullivan has been one of the consistent voices in my head. As the author of the popular series of 100 Hikes, each covering one of five regions in the state, Sullivan has directed me deep into the Cascades and on wind-swept trails along the coast. I have trusted him, past when my trust for other passengers in my car/head probably would have run out. Really, Bill, I should take a turn 1.3 miles past the hillybilly shack and head up Forest Service Road Point-of-No-Return? OKAY! You’ve never steered me wrong! And, Bill is responsible for me reaching some of the most breath-taking viewpoints in the state over the past 20 years. SW: You are a fifth generation Oregonian. Who were the first of your family to come to Oregon—and why did they come here? Bill Sullivan: I really am a fifth generation Oregonian, with my mother born in Baker City and my father in Portland. The first of my family arrived in 1867, coming around Cape Horn with blades to build a sawmill in Puget Sound. Someone on board the ship contracted smallpox and the captain dumped everyone at Fort Umpqua, on the southern Oregon Coast. My ancestors used their sawmill blades to build the mill at Gardiner. SW: Jumping ahead a few generations from there. Your dad was an editor of the Salem Statesman Journal. That’s a big deal. Is it correct to make the assumption he inspired you to be a writer? BS: My father, J. Wesley Sullivan, was the last editor of the Oregon Statesman before it became Salem’s Statesman Journal. I rebelled against the straightjacket of newspaper deadlines by studying creative writing at Cornell, hoping to become a novelist. It turned out to be a hard choice. After seven years of hunger, I started writing hiking guidebooks, and only recently have been able to publish novels. SW: What started you hiking? BS: As a kid I didn’t hike more than most people in Oregon. Sure, we went camping and hiking, but everyone does that. After I hiked 1,300 miles across Oregon to research a route that became famous in [my book] Listening for Coyote, however, the public saw me as the “hiker guy.” I embrace that label. It’s a great job: hiking for living, and writing novels in the winter when I can’t get out. SW: You’ve been at this for 30 years. During that time, technology and publishing have changed dramatically, but the style of your guide books has remained the same. Do you feel any pressure to overhaul the guidebooks to match new customer expectations? BS: You say my guidebooks haven’t changed in 30 years? Good grief! I update them every single year. I give away a free copy to anyone who finds an update I’ve missed. The 100 Hikes books are now available as eBooks (amazingly useful!) with the most powerful wildflower search engine in the world, designed by my brother. I add new hikes every year, with each new printing. This year I’ve revamped the whole series with a 32-page color section that describes every hot springs in Oregon, the fire lookouts, and Forest Service cabins you can rent for cheap, and all the other things to do when you are traveling around the state. My website, OregonHiking.com, tells more—including weekly trail updates and links to the free wildflower search engine. SW: Okay, fair enough. Maybe I was saying that the tone of your books has remained constant—and, that is, it is very personal. Your tour books have such a strong voice—and a brand to them. I would imagine that a lot of people really connect with that voice. What sort of fan mail do you receive? BS: Fan mail? I receive emails every day from all over the world, and I answer them all. Often people from back east ask what they should bring to hike into the Green Lakes Basin in April (snow shoes). SW: Off the trail, you also are very civically involved— especially with libraries. How has the role of libraries changed over the past few decades (or has it), and what role do you see them playing in upcoming years?

BS: Libraries are one of the great, free things that our government can do for us to help everyone. The more things change, the more the need for libraries seems to stay the same. SW: And, finally, D.B. Cooper. You seem to have a certain fascination with him? BS: I’ve written a murder mystery around the D.B. Cooper because he is a mystery, and one of the great folk heroes of the Northwest. So little is known about this madcap parachutist that I thought the case cried out for fiction. Finally, in my novel, you can find out what really happened. And brace yourself: My next “Case of” murder mystery has the working title, The Case of the Reborn Bhagwan.

WHITE RIVER FALLS, SEE MORE PHOTS AT OUTDOOR PROJECT. PHOTO BY KAT DIERICKX.
White River Falls State Park This park contains at least three of my favorite features: huge geologic landforms, a series of cascading whitewater falls, and the physical remains of days gone by--in this case stony, steely ruins of last century’s hydroelectric plant. That said, the best thing about this place is its status as one of Oregon’s most unsung state parks, often passed over for attractions in the Gorge just 35 miles to the north. There’s no epic hiking or camping here, but it’s a good stopover on a warm spring afternoon and makes for a decent swimming hole in the late summer. Tamanawas Falls Relatively close to White River Falls, but near the opposite end on the popularity scale, is this 150-foot whitewater tower. While not as insanely busy as Multnomah Falls, this place is hopping in the summer months, so take in this spectacle during spring if you are hoping for anything resembling solitude. It is accessed via the 3.8 mile, out-and-back East Fork #650/ Tamanawas Falls #650A trail, which ushers you through mixed coniferous forest along Cold Spring Creek. The trailhead is located on Highway 35, roughly 25 miles south of Hood River. If you want to make a trip of it, Sherwood Campground is just a quarter mile away and opens in May.

MUDDY FORK, SEE MORE PHOTS AT OUTDOOR PROJECT. PHOTO BY SHANE KUCERA.
Muddy Fork By all accounts, this is the place to go if you like your waterfalls served with a side of solitude. Located within the Mt. Hood Wilderness, this rocky, six-mile hike is rife with wildlife and wildflowers, and showcases a view of three falls careening off the Sandy Glacier on the west side of Mt. Hood. It is accessed by taking a number of forest roads off of East Lolo Pass road, so it’s best to call the Zig Zag Ranger Station for current conditions before heading out. For directions check out the excellent write-up and stunning photos from folks at the Outdoor Project at outdoorproject.com.

NATURAL WORLD
Preserving Funding Outdoor school is priceless BY JIM ANDERSON
OUTDOOR SCHOOL STUDENTS AT CAMP TAMARACK. NOT ONLY DO THEY GET TO LEARN MORE ABOUT THE WORLD THEY LIVE IN, BUT WHAT THEY CAN DO TO HELP MAKE IT BETTER. PHOTO BY CHARLIE ANDERSON.
A couple Mondays ago, 50 some people gathered at Obsidian School in Redmond to discuss a way in which Outdoor School could be enjoyed by all of the almost 50,000 fifth and sixth grade students in Oregon. To their utter joy, they all discovered it could happen. This may sound nearly impossible when the state legislature just passed a budget for funding schools that was inadequate for general education, but the outdoor school coalition has discovered other ways to fund the program. House Bill 2648, “Outdoor School Bill - It Changes Lives” is in the House Revenue Committee, and just in case it dies, Senate Bill 439 is in the Ways and Means Committee. The action needed for these bills is an amendment in committee to attach a mechanism for full funding at $22 million. That would cover administration, program fees, transportation, tuition, and room and board to send all Oregon fifth and sixth grade students to a full week (five nights and six days) of Outdoor School, or comparable outdoor education reflecting local needs. Twenty-two million dollars per year would come from a fee imposed on all disposal sites that receive domestic solid waste through a $4.40 increase in the tipping fee. That equates to less than $10 per year, per family. As one middle school student put it, “That’s two five-buck lunch meals at Dairy Queen. I’d give up Dairy Queen to go to Outdoor School.” Another source of income for Outdoor School would be
from unclaimed bottle deposit funds. In 2017, the sources of funds for the Outdoor Education Fund will be a portion of unclaimed returnable bottle deposits currently retained by beverage distributors in an amount not to exceed $22 million per year. From 6:30 until after 8 pm two Monday evenings ago, people involved with Outdoor School gave their testimonies as to the individual values to people, our society, and the environment, for those who attended Outdoor School in the 57 years the program has been available to students. The title of the bill now bouncing around with the other 5,000 or so in Salem is an accurate statement, “It Changes Lives.” It has, it does, and it will continue to do so because of what the program offers young people. Yes, the students learn about soil, water, plants, and animals, but while that’s going on they’re learning about themselves as they interact with other students—many who will in that six-day period become life-long friends—they also begin to see their niche in life. This is especially true for the high school counselors who live with the students day and night. Lillian McNeill, a 17-year-old Summit High student, has served as a counselor at the Camp Tamarack Outdoor School facility. Like many high school counselors before her, she too has captured the life-changing power of working outdoors with young people, sharing their personal thoughts, fears and hopes.
“Spring Fling”
“Outdoor School has become an outlet for me to express my passion for the outdoors, and getting the community involved,” McNeill says. “It has become a second home for me and I’ve created strong, long-lasting relationships with some amazing people; without Outdoor School I would not be the person I am today. I try to pass this passion and love for the outdoors along to the students at camp by teaching them about our environment and how we can make positive impacts.” One can magnify these statements to include just about every chid who has had an Outdoor School adventure. Students from different schools and different ways of life come together and blend into what is almost a family for a week of eating, hiking, playing, learning, singing, and being in touch with each other constantly; finding safety in those associations is difficult not to miss. The power to change lives is also well stated by Camp Tamarack Outdoor School’s site supervisor Abigail “Orion” Clark, “The ability for kids in Oregon to go to Outdoor School will help to develop a wider sense of stewardship for protecting the beautiful state I have come to love.” People can help by contacting their representatives and asking them to pass along support for Outdoor School to those involved in the budgeting process, to insure that Outdoor School will be available for every fifth and sixth grader in Oregon’s schools.

Rich Dude’s Lament
It’s so hard to care about Adult Beginners BY ALISON HALLETT
“Rich white guy loses all his money” is probably a really compelling pitch to other rich white guys. Cue shirtless rich dude staring bleakly into his bathroom mirror: “What if all this money is keeping me from living an authentic life?” Etc. If you’re not innately drawn to the premise, however, it’s hard to get too excited about Adult Beginners, in which richy rich techbro Jake (Nick Kroll) accidentally goes humiliatingly broke and moves back to his hometown to live with his sister (Rose Byrne) and her family. Jake spends his time nannying for his nephew and learning how to be an adult, which is, like, not that impressive? Because he’s in his 30s and definitely should be one already? Throw in some family drama, a few jabs at Jake’s reduced station, and Jake learning a bunch of interpersonal lessons that, again, he should definitely have learned already, because he is an ADULT MAN, and you’ve got another low-key dramedy about fancy people and their problems.
Every now and then, the splintered bone of a more interesting movie juts through the skin of this one: One subplot involves how Jake bailed on caring for his terminally ill mom, leaving his sister to pick up the slack. This opens the door for an oblique consideration of the obligation placed on women to be caregivers—not just of their kids, but of their ill and aging parents. Or there’s the moment Jake admits to the woman he’s sleeping with that, though he sees their relationship as just a fling, he wants her to be upset that he’s not more invested. That’s some real shit, and it’s the sort of shit that’s sadly lacking in the rest of the film. Adult Beginners isn’t bad, it’s just profoundly bland. Watching it is like trying to emotionally connect with a potato. Adult Beginners Dir. Ross Katz Opens Friday, May 1 Tin Pan Theater

Metropolitan Opera: Cavalleria Rusticana/Paliacci Encore Yeah, it’s that good, there’s an encore. Like a three and half hour encore! Amazingly, this opera—although now roundly considered a classic—was the equivalent of a 19th century openmic, as a music publisher and pimp invited a bunch of young Italian composers (who had yet to produce anything) to submit a one-act play, to be judged by the biggest meatballs in Italian opera of the time. Adopted from a short story (yeah, now it’s three-plus hours long; hate to see what he would have done with a novel), Mascagni submitted just in time for consideration— and the rest is, well, history. 6:30 pm. Thursday, April 30. Regal Cinemas, Old Mill.

MONKEY KINGDOM THE AGE OF ADALINE It’s not uncommon for women, when questioned about their age, to claim they are perpetually 29. But for Adaline (Blake Lively) it’s a fact. For nearly a century, she’s been celebrating her 29th birthday. She’s successfully kept her strange secret largely by keeping to herself. But when she meets the handsome Ellis (Michiel Huisman), she faces a turning point. Also starring Harrison Ford and Kathy Baker. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Redmond Theatre, Sisters Movie House
AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON The time is now! The film every nerd has been waiting for since the closing credits of the first Avengers. This adventure has Cap, Iron Man, Hulk, Thor, Black Widow, and Hawkeye teaming up with the Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver to take on one of Tony’s inventions gone wrong, Ultron. With Ultron being a somewhat sympathetic villain, expect some deep moral ambiguity from your favorite cinematic superhero team as well as Hulk smashing things in a way that makes you giggle.

THE DIVERGENT SERIES: INSURGENT Even if you try to give Divergent (and its sequels) the benefit of the doubt that they aren’t just Hunger Games rip-offs, by the time you reach the end of the first book your optimism will be shredded. While Shailene Woodley is a fine actress, the Teen Post-Apocalyptic genre hits the wall pretty hard here and flails every which way with its pat ideas about freedom, individuality, and painfully generic love. In this installment the factions start going to war and Kate Winslet cashes extra paychecks. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX EX MACHINA A couple of techie dudes develop a highly advanced (and rather fetching) lady robot. And in a variation on a timeless (and sexist) trope, Ava, the android, uses her cunning and good looks to dupe the smarty-pants men. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX
FOCUS Will Smith and Margot Robbie as con artists getting ready to take down some marks sounds pretty delightful. Even though Smith’s movie star power has somewhat dimmed over the last few years, people forget that when he’s given a strong role, he tends to knock it out of the park. Not saying that this movie has that going for it, but Margot Robbie is damned delightful also, and if her and Will Smith had a baby, it would be too beautiful to look at. St. Francis Theater FURIOUS 7 While I wouldn’t stand up for the first four films in this franchise, Fast Five and Fast and Furious Six are both smorgasbords of explosions and jaw-dropping stunts, worthy of being mentioned alongside the best action films of the last 15 years. Furious 7 pits Paul Walker (in his final screen role), Vin Diesel, Mr. The Rock and family against a pissed off Jason Statham. Expect cars flying through the air, Mr. The Rock with a minigun and Statham kicking our heroes in their faces.

MONKEY KINGDOM Apparently, Disney has an offshoot called Disneynature that releases, you guessed it, nature films.

PAUL BLART: MALL COP 2 The sequel to the art-house triumph, Paul Blart: Mall Cop The First. This time Mr. Blart uses his Oxford educated wits to just hang out for 90 minutes and have a conversation about post-modernism and how it relates to millennial values and more while sipping 70-year old scotch and listening to Clint Mansell compositions. Wait, nope, this is more lowest-common-denominator garbage for people to enjoy while trying to take their mind off their type-two diabetes. I wonder how many times his balls get hit. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Pine Theater, Redmond Theatre, Sisters Movie House
THE SPONGEBOB MOVIE: SPONGE OUT OF WATER Sponge Bob comes to the surface with a live-action/animated blend, Who Framed Roger Rabbit-style. This looks surreal as hell, like Bosch huffed a few whippets and decided that children should be way more into his work. With all the voice actors returning, this should be a wonderful dive back into one of the weirdest animated world’s ever created. Just don’t blame the film for your acid flashbacks. Those are on you.

TRUE STORY Based on a true story involving an Oregon man who kills his wife and kids and the former New York Times reporter whose identity he stole, True Story explores the line between truth and lies and the risks inherent in getting to close to a powerful manipulator.

UNFRIENDED If real-life stories of harassment, assault, and suicide aren’t enough to convince you that online bullying is bad news, this of-themoment horror flick should drive that point home (and maybe convince you to quit social media altogether). The film centers around the ghost of Laura, a teenager who cyber stalks former friends after bullying drives her to suicide. Old Mill

THE WATER DIVINER Set during World War I, the film follows an Australian farmer named Connor (Russell Crowe), who discovers that his three sons died in the Battle of Gallipoli. After traveling to Turkey to bring their bodies home, he learns that one of the young men may be alive and imprisoned. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX
GET HARD Will Ferrell is a white collar criminal headed to San Quentin and Kevin Hart is the guy he hires to train him how to be tough for prison. Since Hart has never been to prison and Ferrell only hires him because he’s black, I’m assuming mildly racist hijinks will ensue. With some of the writers behind the brilliant Key and Peele scripting, this could be a return to form for Ferrell and the vehicle Hart needs to show how funny he can be when not improvising.

WHAT WE DO IN THE SHADOWS A hilarious mockumentary about your average crappy roommate situation...except these roommates are vampires. From the creative team behind Flight of the Conchords, this hilarious horror comedy shreds each generation’s concept of vampires going back to the demonic Nosferatu up to the sparkling Twilight tomfoolery. This flick has more laughter per-minute that most films get in an entire running time. Tin Pan Theater
HOME Home is the new film from DreamWorks Animation, home to How to Train Your Dragon, Kung-Fu Panda and Shrek One through Fifty. This one tells the story of an alien (voiced by The Best Amigo Steve Martin) whose race is hiding from their mortal enemy on Earth, which they decide to invade. Obviously, wacky hi jinks ensure because Jim Parsons is also part of the voice cast and that man has two modes: wacky and fauxnerdy. If they exterminate the human race by accident, then this should be a children’s classic.
WHILE WE’RE YOUNG If you’re into mumblecore—those films where the emphasis is on regular people having regular conversations about regular things—you might like filmmaker Noah Baumbach’s latest. Starring Ben Stiller, Adam Driver, Naomi Watts, and Amanda Seyfried, the film has to do with cross-generational friendships, documentary filmmaking, and hipsters. Old

The Devil, You Say! BY WM.™ STEVEN HUMPHREY
Attention, everybody! I have a new addiction this week, and…no, it’s not cocaine. My new addiction is…no, it’s not rough sex. My new addic…NO, IT’S NOT STRANGLING KITTENS! GEEZ, YOU PEOPLE!! I haven’t strangled a single kitten since I was forced to defend myself against Jeffrey Dahmer’s kitten—who totally deserved it, by the way! My new addiction is Netflix’ superhero series “Daredevil,” and it’s totally disrupting my life (which may and may not involve cocaine, rough sex, and not kitten strangling). Now as you know, I’m a very busy person. I have a day job (writing about terrible television), and a night job (watching terrible television). Because if I don’t watch the terrible television, and then tell you not to watch it, then you’re going to watch it and then who’s going to sell me cocaine, give me rough sex, and not provide kittens for me not to strangle? That’s why I have to squeeze in good television whenever I have a spare second. Example: I recently attended a neighbor’s party. (It’s a good idea to attend neighbors’ parties, because then they’re less likely to call the cops when they hear screams coming from your house.) Anyway, they’re drinking wine, laughing, and cooing over some doorknob who was featured on “Fresh Air,” when I excused myself to go to the bathroom. But instead of doing a bump of coke, I slipped out the window, ran to my house, and watched an entire episode of “Daredevil.” Then, an hour later, I slipped back into the neighbor’s house, rejoined the party, and no one even knew I was gone. Naturally, this pissed me off, so I overturned the snack table and stormed out. Which means I got to watch TWO episodes of “Daredevil” that evening! So why am I so jacked up on “Daredev-

il?” Because unlike ABC’s squeaky-clean “Agents of SHIELD,” Marvel’s “Daredevil” is on Netflix—which doesn’t need to conform to the broadcast networks’ sense of faux morality. That’s not to say it has rough sex—it doesn’t. (BOOOOOOOO!!) However, it does have a dark, violent streak and a realistic amount of potty talk…which, for a Marvel product, sets it far apart from the crowd. But the differences go even deeper. While many of Marvel’s current projects (“Agents of SHIELD,” The Avengers, Captain America: Winter Soldier) explore America’s distrust of our government, “Daredevil” drills down to the microcosm. Rather than fighting marauding aliens trying to destroy the planet, this blind superhero (played by a terrific Charlie Cox) is too busy defending his neighborhood from corrupt gentrification. But even the gentrifying crime lord (Vincent D’Onofrio, who should get a goddamn Emmy) knows the difference between himself and his violent masked enemy is paper-thin. And it’s this darkness, this complicated morality (as well as the brilliant acting, smart scripting, and gorgeous cinematography) that separates “Daredevil” from the squirts of geekiness that currently dominate the genre. And THAT is why I’m putting my neighbor’s parties, cocaine, and rough sex temporarily aside to get a fix of my newest addiction…which is “Daredevil!” And NOT strangling kittens! (Seriously, shut up about that—I may want to adopt some day!) My tweets… your addiction. @WmSteveHumphrey

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Chris Moneymaker was employed as an accountant in Tennessee. On a whim, he paid $39 to enter an online poker tournament. Although he knew a lot about the game, he had never competed professionally. Nevertheless, he won the tournament. As his award, he received no money, but rather an invitation to participate in the annual World Series of Poker in Las Vegas. Can you guess the storybook ending? The rookie triumphed over 838 pros, taking home $2.5 million. I don’t foresee anything quite as spectacular for you, Aries, but there may be similar elements in your saga. For example, a modest investment on your part could make you eligible for a chance to earn much more. Here’s another possible plot twist: You could generate luck for yourself by ramping up a skill that has until now been a hobby.

GEMINI (May 21June 20): Poetically
speaking, it’s time to purify your world of all insanities, profanities, and inanities. It’s a perfect moment for that once-in-ablue-moon Scour-aThon, when you have a mandate to purge all clunkiness, junkiness, and gunkiness from your midst. And as you flush away the unease of your hypocrisies and discrepancies, as you dispense with any tendency you might have to make way too much sense, remember that evil is allergic to laughter. Humor is one of the most effective psychospiritual cleansers ever.

checkout line at Whole Foods. The shopper ahead of me had piled her groceries on the conveyor belt, and it was her turn to be rung up. “How are you doing?” she said cheerfully to the cashier, a crabby-looking hipster whom I happened to know is a Cancerian poet and lead singer in a local rock band. “Oh, I am living my dream,” he replied. I guessed he was being sarcastic, although I didn’t know for sure. In any case, I had a flash of intuition that his answer should be your mantra in the coming weeks. It’s time to redouble your commitment to living your dream! Say it 20 times in a row right now: “I am living my dream.”
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): As I awoke this morning, I remembered the dream I’d just had. In the dream, I had written a horoscope for you. Here’s what it said: “The Kentucky Derby is a famous horse race that takes place on the first Saturday of every May. It’s called ‘The Run for the Roses’ because one of the prizes that goes to the winning horse and jockey is a garland of 554 roses. I suspect that your life may soon bring you an odd treasure like that, Leo. Will it be a good thing, or too much of a good thing? Will it be useful or just kind of weird? Beautiful or a bit ridiculous? The answers to those questions may depend in part on your willingness to adjust your expectations.” VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Don’t calm

down. Don’t retreat into your sanctuary and relax into protective comfort. If you have faith and remain committed to the messy experiment you have stirred up, the stress and agitation you’re dealing with will ripen into vitality and excitement. I’m not exaggerating, my dear explorer. You’re on the verge of tapping into the catalytic beauty and rejuvenating truth that lurk beneath the frustration. You’re close to unlocking the deeper ambitions that are trapped inside the surface-level wishes.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): American author Stephen Crane wrote his celebrated Civil War novel The Red Badge of Courage in ten days. Composer George Frideric Handel polished
off his famous oratorio Messiah in a mere 24 days, and Russian writer Fyodor Dostoyevsky produced his novel The Gambler in 16 days. On the other hand, Junot Díaz, who won a Pulitzer Prize for his novel The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao, needed ten years to finish it. As for you, Libra, I think this is—and should be!—a phase more like Díaz’s than the other three creators’. Go slowly. Be super extra thorough. What you’re working on can’t be rushed.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): In her book A
Natural History of the Senses, Diane Ackerman describes a medieval knight who asked his lady for a strand of her pubic hair: a symbol of her life force. The lady agreed. He placed the talisman in a locket that he wore around his neck, confident that it would protect him and consecrate him in the course of the rough adventures ahead. I recommend that you consider a similar tack in the coming weeks, Scorpio. As you head toward your turning point, arm yourself with a personal blessing from someone you love. Success is most likely if you tincture your fierce determination with magical tenderness.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): “An es-
calator can never break,” mused comedian Mitch Hedberg. “It can only become stairs. You should never see an ‘Escalator Temporarily Out Of Order’ sign, just ‘Escalator Is Temporarily Stairs.’” I think a similar principle applies to you, Sagittarius. If we were to try to evaluate your current situation with conventional wisdom, we might say that part of your usual array of capacities is not functioning at its usual level. But if we adopted a perspective like Hedberg’s, we could rightly say that this part of you is simply serving its purpose in a different way.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19): I’ve got a tough as-
signment for you. It won’t be easy, but I think you’re ready to do a good job. Here it is: Learn to be totally at home with your body. Figure out what you need to do to feel unconditional love for your physical form. To get started on this noble and sacred task, practice feeling compassion for your so-called imperfections. I also suggest you cast a love spell on yourself every night, using a red candle, a mirror, and your favorite creamy beverage. It may also help to go down to the playground and swing on the swings, make loud animal sounds, or engage in unusually uninhibited sex. Do you have any other ideas?
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): When Aquarian media mogul Oprah Winfrey was born, “Oprah” was not what she was called. Her birth certificate says she is “Orpah,” a name her aunt borrowed from a character who appears in the biblical Book of Ruth. As Oprah grew up, her friends and relatives had trouble pronouncing “Orpah,” and often turned it into “Oprah.” The distorted form eventually stuck. But if I were her, I would consider revisiting that old twist sometime soon, maybe even restoring “Orpah.” For you Aquarians, it’s a favorable time to investigate original intentions or explore primal meanings or play around with the earliest archetypes. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): What I propose
is that you scan your memories and identify everyone who has ever tried to limit your options or dampen your enthusiasm or crush your freedom. Take a piece of paper and write down a list of the times someone insinuated that you will forever be stuck in a shrunken possibility, or made a prediction about what you will supposedly never be capable of, or said you had a problem that was permanently beyond your ability to solve. Once you’ve compiled all the constricting ideas about yourself that other people have tried to saddle you with, burn that piece of paper and declare yourself exempt from their curses. In the days after you do this ritual, all of life will conspire with you to expand your freedom.

AMY ALKON
The guy I’ve been seeing for a month just told me that he doesn’t want a relationship or monogamy. I told him from the start that I was looking for something “real” and wanted to take it slowly. I did sleep with him too quickly—on the first date. Still, I feel that men don’t really respect what you say you’re looking for. They get what they want and then leave. How do I keep this from happening in the future? —Ouch
Nothing like tearing off all your clothes on the first date to say, “I want to take it slowly.” (Your words said no, but your thighs had a marching band and a banner: “Welcome Home, Big Guy!”) Many women claim to be seeking something “real”—either because they are or because they don’t want it to seem like their exercise program is “the walk of shame.” Guys are hip to this, so they nod their heads about the “real”ness-seeking and then nudge the woman to see whether she’ll tumble into bed. In other words, your problem was not that the guy didn’t “respect” what you said you wanted but that you didn’t. (This might be a good time to notice that “blame” is just “lame” wearing a “b” as a hat.) To avoid another Sexodus, match your behavior to your goals. Research (and common knowledge) finds that having sex pronto is a bad idea for a woman who’s looking for something lasting with a guy. This isn’t to say sex on the first or second date never leads to more. It’s just a risky strategy to sleep with a man before he’s emotionally attached to you—like when your answer to the question, “So…how long have you two lovebirds been together?” is “It’s actually coming up on two and a half beers!” (c)2015, Amy Alkon, all rights reserved.

CURSES, FOILED AGAIN
Police responding to a drug complaint in Richmond, Va., spotted two men, who began running away. One of the fleeing men, later identified as Darnell Elliotte, 20, fired several shots at the officers. He missed them but shot himself in the leg, allowing his pursuers to apprehend him. (Richmond Times-Dispatch) A subcontractor told police he was working in a subdivision in San Antonio, Texas, when a man approached him, showed a black semi-automatic handgun and asked, “Can I rob the house?” The sub said he replied, “It is not my house,” and later saw the man exit the house carrying a microwave. He snapped a photo of the man putting the microwave into an auto, whose license plate led authorities to Danny Acosta, 30. (San Antonio’s KSAT-TV)
SCHOOL DAZE
German student Simon Schräder, 17, filed a freedom of information request asking the education ministry of North Rhine-Westphalia for the questions to standardized senior exams. The ministry acknowledged that it had received the request, which “is being processed.” (Britain’s The Guardian) Cheating on statewide secondary school exams is common in Bihar, India, where students routinely smuggle in textbooks and notes, but this year local newspapers published photos of parents and relatives scaling walls of exam centers to pass on answers to test takers. Some even showed police officers posted outside the centers accepting bribes. “What can the government do to stop cheating if parents and relatives are not ready to cooperate,” Bihar Education Minister P.K. Shahi said. “Should the government give orders to shoot them?” (BBC News)
SMOKING HAZARDS
A Nevada man inspecting a gasoline can for a leak while smoking a cigarette ignited a flash fire that sent him to the hospital with serious burns. Tim Szymanski of Las Vegas Fire & Rescue said the man’s wife suffered burns to her hands after she heard her husband scream and then tried to put out the fire by patting him down. (Las Vegas Sun)

After an explosion singed the eyebrows, eyelashes and hair of Joseph T. Brennan Jr., and burned his face in Quincy, Mass., he jumped out of his car and told a bystander rushing to his aid, “I’m an idiot. I lit a cigarette with the gunpowder in the front seat.” Police who searched the car found 14 liquids and powders, some of which could be combined to create a destructive device. Brennan explained he had gotten the materials from a friend to tinker with but insisted, “I wasn’t going to do anything malicious.” He was arraigned anyway. (Boston Globe)
GAME OF DRONES
A drone delivering asparagus to a Dutch restaurant crashed on a country road and burst into flames. The delivery had been arranged as a publicity stunt by the De Zwann restaurant in Etten-Leur, North Brabant, to celebrate the beginning of asparagus season. A second batch was delivered by traditional means. (International Business Times) A drone carrying mistletoe and a kiss cam at a TGI Friday restaurant in New York City crashed into a woman’s face, cutting open her nose. “It was like I couldn’t get it off because I guess the mistletoe part had fishing wire on it—that’s how it was attached—and it got caught in my hair, and it kept twirling and twirling and twirling while this thing is on my nose,” Georgine Benvenuto said. (Britain’s The Independent) A drone marked with a radioactive warning sign was found on the roof of Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe’s office. Authorities don’t know when the drone landed but said it tested positive for only “minuscule” amounts of radiation and posed no threat to humans. It also carried a small camera and a water bottle. (Reuters)
GREAT ESCAPE
Kimberly Hope Hatfield, 27, was being processed for release from the Birmingham, Ala., city jail but had to wait while corrections officers checked to see if she had any outstanding warrants from other jurisdictions. Knowing that she did, Hatfield ducked behind another inmate being released and snuck out of the building, according to police Lt. Sean Edwards. (Al.com)
INCOMPETENT OF THE WEEK
A heavily armed Islamic extremist was unable to carry out his mission to open fire on churchgoers in Paris, French officials said, because he accidentally shot himself in the leg. (Associated Press)
THE DEVIL, YOU SAY
Citing an increase in demonic activity, the Vatican convened a team of experts, including practicing exorcists, to equip doctors, psychologists and teachers with the skills needed to recognize and cope with demonic possession. Organizers said one of the main purposes of the exercise is to teach apprentice exorcists to difference between demonic possession and psychological or medical conditions. “Living in an increasingly secularized society than in the past, there is more tendency to open the door to the occult,” warned Father Pedro Barrajon, director of the Sacerdos Institute, organizer of the 10th annual “Exorcism and Prayer of Liberation” course. “Demonic activity is increased by the practice of magic and visiting fortune tellers which can increase the likelihood of demonic possession.” Last year, the International Association of Exorcists referred to the trend as “a pastoral emergency.” (Caribbean360) Facing the death penalty for a 2013 killing spree in Nebraska, Nikko Jenkins claims that he acted under orders from a serpent god and is mentally ill. After a Douglas County judge declared him competent to stand trial, Jenkins carved “666” into his forehead, the number of the Beast in the New Testament book of Revelation. But because he mutilated himself while looking into a mirror, the numbers are backward, according to court officials. (Omaha’s The World-Herald)
STRANGE ENCOUNTERS
Guards at a National Security Agency security checkpoint outside Washington, D.C., opened fire on a stolen SUV containing two men dressed as women after the driver refused orders to stop. One died, the other was hospitalized. Authorities said they believe the driver approached the checkpoint by mistake while the two were fleeing from a motel after robbing a 60-year-old man who had paid the transgender sex workers for an overnight tryst. “This was not a planned attack,” a law enforcement official said. (The Washington Post) French police said a 22-year-old man called emergency services to report a person at a shipyard in Brittany wasn’t responsive and needed an ambulance. When rescuers arrived, they found the caller “underneath a boat, on his knees, trying to resuscitate a rubber dinghy.” (Britain’s The Telegraph)

SMOKE SIGNALS
CANNABIS CORNER
Gone, and Good! BY LEAH CHATTERJEE
The latest buzz in cannabis news is surrounding the retirement of the head of the Drug Enforcement Administration, Michele Leonhart. Leonhart was notorious for coming down hard on folks in the marijuana industry, including medical and recreational businesses operating legally within their state. She also publicly disagreed with the President Barack Obama on his position that marijuana was no more dangerous than alcohol, and she opposed former Attorney General Eric Holder’s policy to reduce penalties for non-violent drug offenses. Leonhart publicly opposed moves by states like Colorado to legalize recreational marijuana, despite Obama’s support for such moves. The news of her retirement has stirred up questions about what this will mean for the new law changes regarding recreational marijuana here in Oregon, and cannabis lobbyists are jumping on this opportunity to push for a more cannabis-friendly candidate for DEA chief. Ultimately, the cannabis lobby hopes to remove the federal ban on marijuana completely, but in the meantime the early retirement of Leonhart opens a door for progress. The hope is that President Obama will nominate someone more aligned with the administration’s openness to marijuana reform. Oregon Representative Earl Blumenauer said in a statement, “I encourage the President to use this as an opportunity to fill this important role with someone who understands the outdated federal approach to marijuana isn’t working... Most now feel marijuana should be legalized.”
