IN RESPONSE TO “DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY ENDORSEMENT: CLINTON” (4/29)
President Obama has cited Libya as the biggest mistake of his presidency, but it was Hillary who pushed him. She also convinced him to approve the Bush era trade agreement with Panama which Bernie Sanders predicted would lead to more tax havens for the rich. Not surprisingly, several people named in the “Panama Papers” are also donors to the Clinton Foundation. While Secretary of State, hundreds of donations were made by arms manufacturers who later received contracts for overseas weapons sales. I could go on and explain how she is a moderate Republican in disguise, but readers need to do their own research of her voting record. The most dangerous aspect of Clinton is her position at the epicenter of the corporate oligarchy which has a strangle hold on our political system. Well before “Citizens United,” corporations infused huge amounts of money into campaigns and lobbyists to the point that the voice of the people is nonexistent. If the people ruled, we wouldn’t have massive student loan debt, the world’s most expensive healthcare and drug prices, the highest rate of child poverty in the developed world, and half of the federal budget going to the military. What is good for corporations is inherently bad for the rest of us. Most Americans are ignorant of the real politics of our country because they get their news from corporate media. For example, CNN (the Hillary Channel) is owned and operated by Time Warner, which is one the top 10 contributors to Clinton’s campaign [ranking eighth, with contributions of $603,170 between 1999 and 2016]. Its bias is showing this election cycle. For every hour on Hillary, Bernie gets two minutes. We used to have a law called the Fairness Doctrine [a policy of the Federal Communications Commission] that required news sources to provide equal time

5 VOLUME 20 ISSUE 18 / May 5, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY
I was appalled by the Source endorsement of Hillary Clinton. Your arguments for her are misinformed and naïve. Sure she is experienced, but what about her awful record as senator and Secretary of State? She accomplished little in eight years as senator and her time at the State Department was a disaster. She is a war hawk who has consistently sided with Republicans in dealing with Iran. Her insistence on regime change in Syria ruined hopes of a cease fire agreement back in 2012. She spearheaded the overthrow and murder of Kaddafi in Libya, which created a power vacuum and is now a stronghold for Isis, who now use the weapons she gave to “moderate rebels” against Assad.
to all candidates. President Reagan repealed it. So the real story of this election is Bernie Sanders’ historic grass roots campaign drawing massive crowds and contributions and reflecting the true mood of the country. But the revolution will not be televised! So you say that Hillary is for voting rights. That seems like a naïve argument in light of the massive election fraud in New York and across the country. ~Tom Freedman
OPT OUT OF MEASURE 91 I ask myself, what would Deschutes County look like on Earth Day 2020 if we allow recreational marijuana growing in rural Deschutes? We will see detrimental effects on county land, water and air, with dramatic increases in the need for water and electricity, rolling farmlands and natural areas will be covered with greenhouses. County Commissioners must Opt Out of Measure 91, and allow only the existing “medical” grows. While attending several MAC meetings, heavily packed with pro-marijuana members, it was obvious that the main concern was to accommodate growers. Very little consideration was given to families who live nearby and who will be directly affected. Property values will plummet. There will be 24/7 noise from fans/filters that regulate air and lighting, plus there will be the resulting over-powering odor of the plants/ trees. Driving through rural areas recently, it saddened me to see our beautiful Oregon countryside being destroyed by greenhouses, enclosed in barbed wire fences that now block scenic mountain views and that have destroyed the natural landscape. The state of Colorado is experiencing significant problems since legalizing pot: lawsuits from adjoining states; high costs of regulation and enforcement; increases in emergency room visits due to smoking or ingesting marijuana and increased arrests by police for people driving under the influence of pot. Expect to see the same problems here. Most likely tax revenue collected from pot sales will not cover enforcement and will over-burden existing police, fire and medical personnel. Are higher taxes and increased energy and water costs on the horizon as well? If we really care about our citizens and about preserving our environment, we must demand an Opt Out of Measure 91 as relates to the growing of recreational marijuana, leaving the existing medical grows as is, provided they are following regulations. Many families moved to Central Oregon to experience a better quality of life - we must preserve that. Contact County Commission-

FARM, HAY, HOGS AND HORSES, NOT SKUNKS Email County Commissioners to continue their Opt Out of marijuana for rural Deschutes County [voting on May 4]: board@ deschutes.org. This neither affects your ability to get medicine, legally grow four plants or use. It contains the 1800+ medical pot growers scattered across Deschutes County from converting to recreational pot grows and increasing in size. Neither City nor County holds a list of these growers today so grandfathering medical growers is imprudent. Orderly community development protects health, life and property and places noxious industry with employees in City industrial parks. Bend has pot dispensaries, four testing labs, vacancies in industrial leases yet doesn’t want to produce this industry inside its own UGB. Since pot is grown in a container, above a cement floor and inside buildings, why not welcome pot production: doesn’t the City want these jobs?

LETTER OF THE WEEK Tom ~ Thank you for your letter. Your call to voters to do their own research is an important one. Regarding the Fairness Doctrine, it was created to prevent Americans from receiving misinformation via radio and television (e.g. ABC, CBS, NBC).

Our leaders believe that pot “belongs” on rural farmland. OLCC’s recreational pot growing (not your personal four plants) is unlike farming hay, hogs or horses. This industry comes with fingerprinting, razor wire, fencing that displaces wildlife, outdoor cameras, screening, vault-like metal containers, pesticides/poisons, invading skunk. Pot production belongs on industrial land in UGBs with fire suppression, employee housing, transit, noisy industrial fans for odor, all

“W
e will protect what makes Oregon great,” said Gov. Kate Brown in her 2016 State of the State Address. That promise is gaining momentum. This year, she signed into law Oregon’s historic clean energy bill, the first of its kind in the nation. She also proposed sweeping minimum wage increases, tiered regionally, passed by the Oregon Legislature. She signed the Klamath Basin Agreement to restore the Klamath River, and in the Columbia River Gorge, put the brakes on allowing Nestle to bottle public water (now on the ballot in Hood River County), even though the deal was rubberstamped by two previous governors. Apparently nothing gets by her, and this is but a partial list of legislation and progress made during her short time as governor. Oregon’s May 17 election ballots were mailed to voters earlier this week. A preview of the Primary Nominating Ballot for the Democratic Party of Deschutes County includes six Democratic candidates for governor. The reason for the special election and short two-year term is that former Gov. Kitzhaber ran and was re-elected to a four-year term in November 2014. Less than four months later, he stepped down, and Kate Brown, as Oregon’s secretary of state, was appointed to fill the post. Thus, the vote for Oregon’s governor is happening two years ahead of schedule. There are many familiar names on the primary ballots this year, both Republican and Democrat. In all, 13 individuals are running for governor, including six Democrats, five Republicans, and two
Independent Party candidates. The Republican candidate who poses the biggest challenge to Brown is Alvin Alley. Although the two have contended in many election years, this will be the first time they are running for the same office. In 2008, the year that Brown won the election for secretary of state, Alley was the Republican nominee for state treasurer. On the campaign trail that year, they canvassed the state from east to west. In the Pendleton Roundup parade, Brown rode horseback and Alley walked the parade route dressed as the Monopoly banker in a tux and shiny shoes. His pleasant face and her earnestness made it very moving to see two people hope for something so much. Brown won her race, but Alley was defeated for treasurer by Bend’s Ben Westlund. However, none of the candidates, not even Alley, are anticipated to get within reach of Brown this year.With more than 25 years of public service, her experience is awe-inspiring. She began her political career in the Oregon House from 1990 to 1997, followed by election to the Oregon Senate, where she was a senator from 1997 to 2008. In 2004, she became the first female Senate majority leader in Oregon. In 2009, following her election as secretary of state, she was named one of the top 24 rising stars in American politics. Oregon has benefited from many hardworking, intelligent and visionary governors in the last century, and Kate Brown is now one of them. Vote for Brown. SW

Democratic Primary Endorsement for U.S. Senator Ron Wyden
LOOKS LIKE YOU NEED
A NEW MATTRESS!
7 VOLUME 20 ISSUE 18 / May 5, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY
S
en. Ron Wyden, 67, is up for re-election this year. The incumbent was first elected to be one of Oregon’s two U.S. senators 20 years ago, in 1996. His career in Congress began 35 years ago in 1981 in the U.S. House of Representatives, a post he was re-elected to seven times, never with less than 70 percent of the vote. He currently serves as ranking member of the Senate Finance Committee and was previously chairman of the Senate Energy Committee. Even though his long, successful career in Congress speaks for itself, the father of five, including two grown children, nine-year-old twins and a three-year old daughter, has not slowed down. In fact, in the last year, he introduced new legislation that perhaps only a veteran statesman would dare to put forward. Wyden is working to make Oregon, and the country, a better place. His work to return commercial flights to Klamath Airport, restore Oregon salmon runs, encourage federal hemp legalization and reschedule cannabis, are important locally and set a precedent for a larger national impact. Sen. Wyden is approachable and strives to communicate and be present for Oregonians in every region. His frequent visits to Central Oregon and open discussions are remarkable considering that he rarely misses a vote on Capitol Hill. He’s concerned with local issues, such as getting more Oregonians to high school graduation, noting that schools with high graduation rates have specialized counselors who work with struggling students. Recently, Oregon was identified as the state with the lowest graduation rate in the country. Wyden is forward thinking about issues that affect Oregon specifically, such as
potential natural disasters in the coastal tsunami zone. He secured $5 million for a West Coast earthquake early warning system. He also introduced the Recreation Not Red Tape (RNR) Act building upon Oregonians’ ideas to support infrastructure on public land, increase access and require adoption of a consistent permitting process. Federally, Wyden rejects the sprawling expansion of U.S. domestic surveillance. However, his biggest controversy may be breaking rank with the White House on Obamacare, directing the Oregon Health Authority’s attention to Section 1332, of which he was the architect. It allows states to opt out of the requirement that individuals purchase health insurance. Wyden wrote that he believes the heart of real health reform is affordability and not mandates. The Oregon primary nominating ballot for the Democratic Party includes three Democratic candidates for U.S. Senator. Wyden’s opponents include Paul Weaver, a member of the National Rifle Association from Toledo, and Kevin Stine, a Medford city councilor since 2014, age 30, the minimum age to be elected to the Senate. The Republican primary ballot includes Bend’s Sam Carpenter, an author and businessman, endorsed by the Oregonian newspaper. Wyden’s visits to Central Oregon this year include three town halls in Crook, Deschutes and Jefferson County, and a technology roundtable in Bend. He also stopped by the Giving Plate, highlighting new tax reforms to encourage farmers and businesses to donate food to charitable organizations. Vote for Wyden. SW

Human Trafficking People are not property
SIDE NOTES By Angela Moore
by Angela Moore 9
Jesse Fishkin speaks to the Bend City Council about human trafficking. Fishkin and Boy Scout Troop #25, along with the Soroptimists, placed silhouettes around Bend, representing human trafficking victims. Photos courtesy of the Fishkin Family.
A
ccording to the latest “Global Report on Trafficking in Persons” by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), compiled in 2014, human trafficking is pervasive worldwide, including the United States. Seventy percent of victims are female and one third of all trafficked persons are children. Human trafficking’s most common form is sexual exploitation, followed by forced labor. “The exploitation of one human being by another is the basest crime,” says UNODC Executive Director Yury Fedotov. This is one of the oldest trades known to mankind, and as barbaric as its roots are, the practice is still one that is all too common place today, with a reach that extends to Oregon. The report is thorough, reporting victims from 152 countries found in 124 of 128 participating countries, divided by region. However, Fedotov warns that with few or no recorded convictions in 40 percent of the countries where human trafficking is present, the report fails to represent the full scope of the crisis. “It should be kept in mind that official data reported to UNODC by national authorities represents only what has been detected. It is clear that the reported numbers are only the tip of the iceberg,” he says. This U.N. report is an awakening to the scale of human exploitation globally, but most may not realize the problem is present locally. The Department of State’s 2015 “Trafficking in Persons Report” names sex trafficking, child sex trafficking, forced labor, forced child labor, domestic servitude and child soldiers among types of human trafficking. The report focuses on ending human trafficking globally by cutting off the global chain of demand.
Secretary of State John Kerry writes of victims across the globe, saying, “We hear you.” In February, the U.S. prepared to enforce its ban (found within the Tariff Act of 1930) on importing goods made by child laborers and slaves under new provisions of a law signed by President Obama. “This law slams shut an unconscionable and archaic loophole that forced America to accept products made by children or slave labor,” said Oregon’s Sen. Ron Wyden, who worked on the legislation. Awareness about human trafficking and modern slavery in the U.S. is increasing rapidly. Jesse Fishkin, 16, is a student at Summit High School and a Boy Scout who first learned about the issue when author Nita Belles came to speak to his class. “To me, human trafficking is nothing more than modern slavery, the practice of buying and selling human beings,” Fishkin said about what he had learned. Alongside the Soroptimists, an international group that focuses on improving the lives of girls and women, Boy Scout Troop #25 created life-sized silhouettes made to represent shadows of the victims of human trafficking. In October, the group placed the two-dimensional figures around Bend. Belles is the Central Oregon Regional Director for Oregonians Against Trafficking Humans (OATH), and has dedicated much of the past decade to the anti-trafficking movement. She is the author of “In Our Backyard,” a book about her experiences uncovering human trafficking in the United States. “This is happening not only in big cities, but in Central Oregon, in small towns such as Prineville, Madras, Sunriver, Bend, Redmond, Black Butte and many others,” she says. She speaks to community groups in Central Oregon and has worked with Oregon Sen. Tim Knopp (R-Bend), who introduced legislation
to create greater penalties for human trafficking in Oregon. The UNODC data makes it clear that the Americas (North America, South America and Central America) are destinations for global human trafficking from Asia, Europe and Africa. Nonprofit organizations and Oregon’s politicians are not shying away from the human trafficking issue. Congress made forced labor a federal crime in 2000, and Oregon adopted a law against labor trafficking in 2007. However, years go by without recorded convictions. That may soon change, although the wheels turn slowly. In early April of this year, Oregon Bureau of Labor and Industries (BOLI) Labor Commissioner Brad Avakian filed charges against the adult night club, Stars Cabaret for unlawful sexual harassment of minors. Stars is an adult entertainment club with four locations in Bridgeport, Salem, Beaverton and Bend. The lawsuit involves six months of investigation that found evidence of compelling prostitution on a 13-year-old minor in 2014. This case is ongoing. Awareness starts now. For those who would like to learn more about human trafficking in Central Oregon, and what to do about it, Belles will speak at the Bend United Methodist Church on May 19, from 6:30 to 8 p.m. SW “In Our Backyard” a lecture by author Nita Belles Bend United Methodist Church, 680 NW Bond St., Bend May 19, 6:30 to 8 p.m. RSVP: volunteer@inourbackyard.org

It is truly amazing what young minds can do. No longer are students content on bubbling volcanos, these kids are out to change the world. Five Bend Science Station students were awarded at the 2016 Northwest Science Exposition in Portland. They are invited to attend the upcoming national Broadcam MASTERS science, technology, engineering and math competition, held in Washington, D.C. “Best in Category” and “Best in Fair” for Medicine and Health went to Jimmy Plumleigh, a 7th grader at Cascade Middle School. His research project was titled “Cystic Fibrosis Screening: Detection of gene mutation through hypertonic sodium chloride effects.” He also received a “Merit in Statistics” award and $50 in prize money. Harper Smith, a 7th grade homeschool student, was awarded “Best in Category” in Consumer Product Testing and an “Excellence in Statistics” award. She received $100 in prize money. Her project demonstrated that different sugars dramatically affect the fermentation rate of kombucha's lactose-intolerant S.C.O.B.Y. “Best in Category” in Animal Science and a $50 prize went to Raven Dow-Hygelund, a 7th grade Baker Charter School student for her project on Invasive American Bullfrogs (Lithobates catesbeiana). Jack Conde, a 7th grader at Pacific Crest Middle School, was awarded first place in Microbiology with his project “Growth of Microbes on Mars-Like Media.” Teaghan Knox, a 6th grade homeschool student, received first place in Plant Science for demonstrating the different affects of natural light versus fluorescent light on lettuce growing in aquaponic systems with snails or the same lettuce in soil. David Bermudez is the executive director of the Bend Science Station, which provides laboratory science education in Central Oregon for students in kindergarten through 12th grade. More than 7,000 students took part in classes and camps last year. Visit www.bendsciencestation.org for more information about programs. SW

his year, the Source staff submitted nominations for the publication's Woman of the Year, searching for role models in the Central Oregon community who are exceptional in professional, civic and personal endeavors. What we found, is that there are many women in our community who fit this description today going beyond it with visionary ideas for the future. The women of Bend defy female stereotypes. They do not wait for an invitation to change the world, or shy away from difficult dreams.
In fact, they follow their paths to fulfill their destinies, and are more
than role models for other women; they inspire all human beings. We are proud to present Alice Elshoff, an educator and conservationist as the Source Weekly's Woman of the Year. She has helped protect Oregon’s wildlands for decades and led the protests for public lands that sparked a national conversation. We’ve also chosen Sgt. Liz Lawrence, an officer with the Bend Police Department for 25 years, who leads the Community Response Team with great compassion. From Bend City Council, Sally Russell may one day be Bend’s may-
or, and she shares in her interview the challenges of her role as well as hopes for the future. An interview with lead distiller Molly Troupe shows how the once male-dominated field is now open to all, and she is ready. Finally, René Mitchell represents the creative world of Bend, with a view to overcoming life’s biggest challenges and manifesting social change through the power of art and collaboration. Our finalists include five women who are treasures of Central Oregon, but we would have liked to include many more.

A
s co-founder of Friends of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, Alice Elshoff’s patience with the armed occupation near Burns unraveled on Jan. 9. She had patiently watched the armed takeover of the 188,000-acre preserve, admitting that she didn’t take it seriously at first. On that early Saturday in January, however, all that changed. She fired off an email to her friend Rynda Clark, co-leader of a group to which Elshoff belongs called the Great Old Broads for Wilderness. The email read as follows: “I’m having this fantasy of getting a busload of women together and letting the media know we’re going over there with our umbrellas to poke those thugs until they go home and give our refuge back to the people.” Soon, Elshoff’s thought crystallized into a plan: “What if we used our Great Old Broads contacts all around the West to stage some media GAB rallies, (Grandmothers Against Bullies),” she wrote to Clark. Four days later, dressed in aprons, the Great Old Broads led a large protest rally in downtown Bend and Elshoff was the first speaker. Wav-
ing a rolling pin in her hand, she told rally supporters, “Rest assured we are ready to go there and send those bullies who are desecrating our land back to their mamas.” The Bend rally was the first of many organized around the state to draw attention to the value of public lands and to counter the armed occupation of the Malheur Refuge. Elshoff told the Source Weekly that her first reaction to the occupation was that it was ludicrous. “We couldn’t believe it was actually serious,” she explained. As time went on she began to see how serious occupiers were about taking over the federal refuge for their private use. “I began to feel personally violated to see people over there damaging a place that we care so much about,” she said. Federal officials estimate that more than $6 million in damages and other costs, including harm to sacred grounds of the Burns Paiute Nation, was caused by the occupiers.
public lands protests Other voices supporting Elshoff and public lands grew louder. Five days after the rally in Bend, an angry Gov. Kate Brown declared at a
news conference: “The residents of Harney County have been overlooked and underserved by federal officials’ response thus far. I have conveyed these very grave concerns directly to our leaders at the highest levels of our government: The U.S. Department of Justice and the White House.” Elshoff’s impatience echoed loudly and clearly throughout Oregon and the nation.
“Alice is a leader who motivates love of natural places in people; her passion for nature is contagious.” ~ Co-founder of Friends of the Malheur National Refuge, Gary Ivey
“Alice is an incredible role model, someone who follows her passions with commitment and integrity,” says Joanne Richter, co-leader of the Great Old Broads for Wilderness in Central Oregon. “She speaks softly, but her energy and determination inspire me and countless others to support her.
Her contributions and leadership in the conservation community are incalculable, invaluable and irreplaceable,” says Richter. Clark concurs. “We all agree she is our hero. It is likely she has done more for our community and planet than anyone else in Central Oregon.” The Malheur occupation not only failed, but boomeranged to create a new wave of support for federal public lands owned by all Americans. Elshoff says things are slowly turning around at the refuge, but it will be a long time before the public can fully use it again. Noting there is much work to be done, she says there is near-term help. “Since January our group has received over $70,000 that we can use on projects around the refuge.” Friends of the Malheur National Refuge will soon be allowed back on the land. The first project the group is planning is May 7, when it will plant a pollinator garden by the observation pond. “Our monarch butterflies and bees are in trouble, and this is one thing we can do that everybody can feel good about.” ...Continues on page 14
feature malhuer: a journey spanning 55 years Alice Elshoff has a personal history with the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge that dates back more than half a century. She grew up with an appreciation for natural beauty and during her college years in Colorado worked in summer camps in the Rocky Mountains. Following college, Elshoff came to Oregon to begin a teaching career where she says the most fun she ever had was teaching at a tworoom schoolhouse in Alfalfa. She met her husband Cal in Oregon and moved to Bend in 1960. It was Cal, a biologist and teacher, who introduced her to the refuge for the first time, and she fell in love with what she saw.

connectivity to critical habitat if purchased and included as part of the overall refuge. The owners were willing to sell, but there was a disagreement on the price the government would pay for the ranch. Elshoff and her husband stepped up and loaned the extra amount so the purchase could be made. At that time the ranch was unoccupied, so the Elshoffs accepted an offer to live there while working on behalf of the refuge. George Wuerthner, a nationally noted researcher and wildlife conservationist, says, “Alice Elshoff has been a steady advocate for wildlife and wilderness for decades, particularly for Oregon’s desert wildlands. Even opponents love her because of her smiling, cheerful,
co-founder of two other organizations that are helping protect Oregon’s natural treasures: The Oregon Natural Desert Association (ONDA) and the Central Oregon chapter of the Great Old Broads for Wilderness, who call themselves “The Bitterbrush Broads.” In honor of her work on behalf of ONDA, the organization presents “The Alice Elshoff Desert Conservation Award” each year to recognize individuals who make significant contributions to protecting Oregon’s desert. “Alice connects people with wild places, our best hope for the future,” says Bill Marlett, co-founder, Oregon Natural Desert Association. “Alice is special because she has the drive to organize and lead others to protect nature. Wilderness has no better friend than Alice.” Elshoff is humble about her accomplishments and says that the word “legacy” is too strong when used to describe her work. She prefers to compliment others, saying she is happy to come up with ideas and even happier to delegate them. She says that in the coming years she plans to focus on and work more closely with the Friends of the Malheur.

on those years, she says there have been a lot of changes at the refuge. She has seen many floods and droughts at the Malheur, but the one constant, she says, is the birds. “The birds keep coming no matter what. They keep migrating from South America to the Arctic to Siberia, stitching the continents together.” The Malheur National Wildlife Refuge is a stop-off point along the Pacific Flyway where hundreds of varieties of birds rest, breed and nest.

One of the first Malheur projects was to create a safe parking area for the public to access the refuge. Since then, there have been many trail-building and weed control projects, and ongoing efforts to promote and educate people about the importance of the refuge for migrating birds and other wildlife. The group’s mission is “to conserve, enhance, and restore fish and wildlife habitat and cultural history in the Harney Basin in southeast Oregon supporting the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge staff and programs.”

planning for the future “The work ahead of us is to make everyone in the country aware of how important our public lands are to everyone,” says Elshoff. “Our public lands are the envy of the world, linking the past to the present. They have to be maintained and cherished,” she says. Reflecting on her work as an educator and conservationist, Elshoff says, “If anything that I have done has helped young people get connected with wildlands, I will go to the way beyond a happy woman.” The Source Weekly is proud to announce Alice Elshoff as its 2016 Woman of the Year.

Sally Russell bend city councilor

S
ally Russell says she is ready. Having served as Mayor pro tem, she tells the Source Weekly that she wants to be Bend’s mayor. Russell was first elected to the Bend City Council in 2012 and will soon announce her re-election bid. Unlike many other cities, those who are elected Bend City Councilors choose a mayor from within their group. “I see myself as mayor in the next couple of years, and I think the community would like to see a woman as mayor of Bend. We’ll look at how that plays out after the next election.” She continued, “I would hope that I would be re-elected and that the community recognizes the value of what I bring to the community.”
the national legislation in 1986.
Sally Russell’s story is one that has deep roots in Oregon. As she tells it, her family’s foundation is built on challenge, adversity and inspiration. Her father’s side of the family was among the first to migrate to Oregon in a covered wagon
From potholes to affordable housing, Russell acknowledges that Bend is facing major challenges as the city grows, and how that growth takes shape is of particular concern. She agrees with those who feel Bend needs to grow up rather
Today, Russell celebrates her mother’s legacy by being an avid kite board enthusiast who enjoys wind surfing the Columbia River near Hood River and mountain biking near Bend. “The places where I do my best thinking are when I’m out riding or hiking the River Trail or Storm King,” she explains. Storm King is one of Bend’s many mountain bike trails. “That’s where I rebuild, and that’s where I take conflicting points of view of problems that seem unsolvable. The book time, the intellectual time, is really important, but the place where I can pull together solutions for our community takes place in the outdoors.”
“I see myself as someone who is fully engaged in helping make our city, our region and our state a better place.” ~ Sally Russell
in 1853, enduring the challenges faced by thousands of early settlers who survived the rugged Oregon Trail. Russell has original maps and charts in her possession that were used by her ancestors and which she has preserved for safe-keeping. As a young woman, she gained inspiration from her mother, Nancy Russell, who served as the first executive director of the Friends of the Columbia Gorge and who many credit as being the driving force leading to the designation of the gorge as a National Scenic Area. She recalls the adversity her mother faced, such as the slashed tires that greeted her after a Skamania County meeting, while working to win local support needed to pass

than out, increasing height limits for buildings to include more density and affordable housing inside the Urban Growth Boundary rather than pushing growth outward. “We can stay compact and go up rather than encroach on the natural landscape that attracts so many people to Bend,” she says, adding that she doesn’t want to obstruct views or negatively impact neighborhoods. Affordable housing is also a major concern for Russell. “Clearly we need to work harder on how to accommodate the work force,” she says, calling it a huge challenge for those who live and work yearround in the community and who can’t afford housing. “How do we

incentivize housing that’s affordable and will keep people who work here living here year-around,” she asks. “That is an economic base that we have yet to firm up and stabilize.” She says the city’s central plan, which includes 3rd Street, is a good place to begin. She envisions mixed use development including housing and commercial services where people can walk and bike to enjoy amenities without having to use a car if they choose. Within Russell’s leadership philosophy and the broader challenges facing Bend, the region and the nation is a simple path. “I really believe our biggest challenge is acquiring the skills to listen to each other and hear each other.” She fears that without those skills people become isolated and problems are harder to solve. “One of my jobs is to change the way the City of Bend interacts with the community. Please, please get engaged and get involved,” she urges. She subscribes to the philosophy that no problem is without a solution.
Acknowledging her short-term goal to be Bend’s mayor, Russell says she is open to what may unfold. “I see myself as someone who is fully engaged in helping make our city, our region and our state a better place,” she says. Women leaders such as Russell, serving in local government, are role models for other women of all ages in the community. Russell has balanced her post on Bend’s City Council with work for nonprofits as well as real estate development companies. A native Oregonian, she graduated from Catlin Gable High School and Smith College, and earned her master’s degree in marketing from Portland State University. She has served as executive director of the Cascade Music Festival and the Cascade Cycling Classic, while volunteering as a member of the Board of Directors for the Tower Theater. She has also served on a committee formed by Sen. Ron Wyden to promote recreational projects throughout Deschutes County. SW

“What’s lacking in today’s world is acceptance. I want these kids to build confidence within themselves and share it with others. I want them to learn that it’s OK to be you.” Mitchell discusses how being creative is an expression of an individu-
The earthy executive was also the mindful one behind the development of Scale House, a new contemporary creative center in Bend, which she also co-founded. She describes Scale House as “an incubator for all things creative.” It provides physical space for artists, exhibitions, education and collaboration. What Mitchell does for the community is many years in the making, and though she makes it look effortless, it hasn’t always been easy. The 44-year-old mother of two daughters was dealt an easily foldable hand when her husband passed away five years ago. “I kept expecting him to walk through the door, but I knew that wouldn’t ever happen again,” she says. “We had two children together and I was left having to explain to them why Daddy’s body didn’t work anymore.” When the unthinkable became reality in her life, she says, “I only had one option, and that was to continue.” Mitchell describes tapping into the creativity that had influenced her life since as long as she could remember, looking for a way to bring healing. “My kids and I started art therapy classes to help us better cope with the loss,” she says She shakes her head, and when asked if she was at all surprised that she chose an art avenue of healing, Mitchell says, “Yes! It absolutely surprised me. It didn’t dawn on me until the middle of one of the art classes.” Her connection to all things creative

al and how unfortunate it is that the encouragement of such a simple thing is often missing.

lead distiller at oregon spirit distillers By Jared Rasic
M
olly Troupe took a very interesting path to becoming the lead distiller at Oregon Spirit Distillers. After studying forensic science and chemistry at Southern Oregon University, she then headed to Scotland for a master’s degree in brewing and distilling. Troupe is now blazing a trail through a traditionally
University in Edinburgh, Scotland. It was in Edinburgh that I truly developed my passion for whiskey. From the classroom to the tasting room, I absorbed as much knowledge as I could, before heading back to Oregon to put my new found knowledge to work.” SW: What led you to distilling from forensics? MT: “Chance and a love of chemistry. I got very lucky. I grew up in a whiskey-drinking household but I didn’t know this was what I would end up doing. As a teenager, I had decided I wanted to be a forensic anthropologist. When I got to college, I was advised to major in chemistry en route to my dream. At the time, I didn’t know that my love of chemistry would surpass my love of all things forensic, but it did. “When I was considering my options for a chemistry degree, I was doing what a lot of other college students were doing: drinking. I had little experience home-distilling but the science behind all things whiskey-related intrigued me. The more I looked into it, the more I liked it, until I decided I liked it so much I should look into education programs. I immediately thought of UC Davis and their fantastic program, but there was such a long waiting list. While searching, I stumbled upon Heriott-Watt University and could not pass up the chance to learn more about whiskey in Scotland.”

male-dominated profession, and her story is a fascinating one. Source Weekly: Could you talk a bit about your history? Molly Troupe: “I grew up in Troutdale, Oregon, with my parents and brother. I went to college at SOU in Ashland, Oregon. I graduated in 2012 with a bachelor’s degree in chemistry, with an emphasis in forensics. After graduating from my undergraduate program, I decided to earn a master’s degree in brewing and distilling from Heriot-Watt
SW: How did you become connected to Oregon Spirit Distillers? MT: “I started out as a quality control assistant at Hood River Distiller’s before heading to beautiful Bend, Oregon, to become a distiller at Oregon Spirit Distillers. At Oregon Spirit Distillers I have merged my formal education with on-the-job experience. One of my favorite aspects of distilling is that your education is continual; I learn something new everyday. I have continued to grow at Oregon Spirit Distillers and have even earned the title of lead distiller.”
SW: Tell me a bit about your relationship to Central Oregon? MT: “Having lived in Oregon most of my life, I have always been familiar with Central Oregon. I grew up taking vacations to Bend back when it was a cowboy town and have some fond memories from those trips. Living here has been a treat; there are just so many things to do and see! From yoga to beer and spirit tastings, scenic sights, dog parks, and so much more. There is never a boring day in Central Oregon. As a distiller, Central Oregon’s agriculture is highly attractive as well. Being able to source local grain and use natural water sources is a huge aspect to our success as a business.” SW: Is distilling somewhat of a boy’s club? Does being a woman in the industry present any hurdles that you weren’t expecting? MT: "Women have a very rich history in distilling. There are far more men in the distilling industry than women. However, I have always felt very accepted by this community. We are a creative and curious bunch and are fairly accepting of anyone who wants to learn the art of distillation. Gender has never been an issue. If anything, it has been an advantage to have a slightly different perspective than my colleagues. "Occasionally, I will have a tour of men who assume I don’t know anything about whiskey and that is when I start chatting about azeotropes. I have had people ask if I am even old enough to drink. I just jokingly account that to my youthful glow." SW: Are the people in your life supportive of your career? MT: "When I said I wanted to be a distiller to my family, they could not have been more supportive. My dad and brother are especially on board the whiskey train. They both enjoy a good dram of whiskey from time to time and couldn’t be bigger supporters of Oregon Spirit Distillers or me." SW

Liz Lawrence
bend police department’s finest

By Sherron Lumley
Lawrence graduated from Mountain View High School in 1981 and headed to college. Upon graduation, she applied at Bend Police Department, but was turned down with the advice to go get some life experience. At that time, only nine percent of police officers nationwide were women, but five years later, she returned and was hired. With awards for cross country jumping and arena jumping, horse patrol was one of her early duties. She has worn many hats since then, including motorcycle patrol, narcotics and now the new mental health unit. Source Weekly: How did you decide to devote your career to serving with the Bend Police? Sgt. Liz Lawrence: “When I was 13 a good friend of mine introduced me to the Explorer Program at Bend Police Department. I never looked back. I knew right then I loved this job and the wonderful police officers who took their time to mentor me much to my father’s dismay. My father was really hoping I would follow in his footsteps as an electrical engineer, but instead I chose the life of a public servant.” SW: What are some of the ways that you get moral support from your family? LL: “I get tremendous support from my husband and family. Also from my wonderful law enforcement family. Finding moral support from a spouse in this business takes a partner with great understanding and patience. Especially a little more difficult as a female in this line
in many different specialty units during my career and I don’t take that for granted. My most significant accomplishment - still loving what I am doing and truly believing I make a difference.”

Imagine working narcotics and getting calls from an informant in the middle of the night, or working cases that might keep you away from home for 24 hours, or trying to make plans and getting called out. I think motor school was as tough on my husband as it was on me! "Luckily my husband, Vance Lawrence, is a sergeant at the Deschutes County Sheriffs Office. We have been married over 20 years. We have experienced it all together. The shootings, difficult cases involving children, suicides; we see people when they are victims of crimes, in the throes of addiction or are behaving at their absolute worst.” SW: How do you find balance in life? LL: “Yes, balance, good question. Law enforcement in general can be mentally demanding. I found I wasn’t truly prepared for how invested you become in your clients' lives. Not just them, but their families, too. Luckily we have great
support with practitioners who we work with and the administration at the Police Department. "My husband and I have other interests outside of law enforcement. Although we have some very close friends who share the same profession, we also have friends outside of our profession. My hobbies include horses, road biking and hanging out with our two very energetic Boxers. My husband likes golf; I have a set of clubs and sometimes I use them.” SW: Do you see yourself as a role model for women today? LL: “I think it’s important that women in this line of work support each other. Although I have had some great female role models during my career, I have also had wonderful supportive male role models as well. "I really get a strong sense of pride when I see the potential in a new female recruit or a veteran lateral transfer. I have been able to serve
They also proactively check on people when they are not in crisis to make sure they are getting the services they need, even providing transportation to medical or psychiatric appointments. Lawrence's team works closely with Parole and Probation, St. Charles Medical Center, Adult Protective Services, Central Oregon Council on Aging, Central Oregon Veterans Outreach, the Shepard's House and Bethlehem Inn. “Unfortunately, jails become our largest health care providers,” says Lawrence. “I was stunned to find out that Oregon has seen cuts of 40 to 60 percent of mental health resources, leaving the critically ill displaced and oftentimes homeless.” On the ride along with Lawrence, two hours in her presence brought to light the humanity behind the badge as nothing else could. Lawrence says those they help range in age from 6 to 96 and they have to know where to find the resources to assist each of them and their families.

Soldier Songs helps vets find their voice
ALBUM REVIEW
By Angela Moore
By Jared Rasic 23
Few albums are worthy of taking up a permanent spot used for companionship on the road, but the re-released “Ghosts of Champoeg” by the Hill Dogs is one of those albums. This CD, first released March 13, 2013, includes 15 tracks of what the band calls psychedelic folk’n’ rock. These Oregon musicians call Newberg home, but live a well-traveled life, playing as many shows as they can muster, and enjoying every minute of it.
Beth Wood brings her beautiful sound to the Tower Theatre for the Soldier Songs and Voices benefit. Proceeds will help fund transitional housing for wounded combat veterans in Oregon. Bend's own Stronghold Trio brings its big sound to the Tower event.
C
huck Hemingway is a soldier with a song. He wrote the lyrics for “Outside The Wire Again” and the song was put to music by Mark Quon. The song sheds light on the ghostly images that haunt him and the way his mind travels back to the deafening roar of an ambush: “John buddy what went wrong?” he asks. Chorus to “Outside The Wire Again,” by Chuck Hemingway: “And the call comes from the CP Saddle up and move ‘em out Years ago that was now Another time and another place The feelin’ comes on so suddenly I’m back there, my mind’s a scary place I’m outside the wire again.” Soldier Songs is a veteran support program with 11 chapters in six states and the organization does something so simple as to be brilliant. Each group gives singing and songwriting lessons to armed forces veterans, creating an outlet for veterans to speak, sing and write songs about their war time experiences. Having the opportunity to do this with other veterans creates a much needed solidarity for those emotions to be released. Music as a tool of healing is an idea that has been gaining more traction over the years as its continued success with vet-
erans, sufferers of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), and others attest. The Bend chapter of Soldier Songs and Voices popped up in 2013, shortly before another group started in Portland. The fundraisers that the organization presents help purchase guitars for the veterans to work on their songs. Those songs are being added to a compilation being produced by the parent version of Soldier Songs and Voices in Austin, Texas. The opening acts of the Tower event on May 17 are locals with deep roots in the Bend Soldier Songs community. Mark Quon is one of the organizers of the Bend chapter, and the country band Loose Gravel was actually formed out of the Bend meetings. Bill Valenti, a co-founder of the Central Oregon chapter of Soldier Songs, recruited Beth Wood for the event. He says, “We’ve been gathering to share music for the past three years and we decided it’s time to reach beyond our Central Oregon circle and explore new ways to help veterans heal through music.” Valenti, a local singer-songwriter, is known for political and social commentary protest songs. Wood is a part of the Sisters Folk Festival and will be headlining with the Strong Hold Trio at the Soldier Songs and Voices benefit at the Tower Theatre. Her many albums are available on CDBaby and iTunes. The Stronghold Trio is made up of local pianist Andy Armer, guitarist/
vocalist Richard Taelour and drummer Justin Veloso. Armer is a Grammy-nominee for his piece RISE, which was performed by Herb Alpert in 1979. “My family has been touched by war, as have most families,” says Wood. “My grandfather was a purple heart veteran of WWII, and back then the term PTSD did not exist. Our family struggled and suffered with the aftermath of his experience, and the ripple effects of that suffering still reverberate. It means a great deal to me personally to be a part of this event,” says Wood. “I have wanted to be involved with Soldier Songs ever since I heard about the organization and the important work they are doing.” She adds, “Sometimes it is easy to feel helpless and think there is nothing you can do to help, but one thing I can do is sing.” Wood considers it an honor to be asked to sing for this cause. “Beyond the Wire,” by Hemingway, will be performed by Quon at the benefit, representing the collaboration between a veteran and songwriter. SW Soldier Songs Presents Beth Wood and Stronghold Trio Tuesday, May 17, 7 p.m. Tower Theatre, 835 NW Wall St., Bend Reserved Seating, $25, $30 SoldierSongs Central Oregon meets on the third Monday of each month at Kelly D’s Irish Pub/Sports Bar, 6:30 p.m.
The Source was able to track down the manager of the group, Cosmo Spada, also known as The Dog Catcher, and lead singer Taylor Kingman, 23, to answer some questions about the band’s first album. All five members of the group lend vocals to the cause and each has a specific musical contribution. Lucas Benoit, 23, plays guitar; Ricky Rohr, 24, is featured on drums; Kayla Stroik, 25, plays viola; and Rowan Cobb, 30, plays bass. The group has stayed with this current lineup since 2013, and it should be noted that bassist Kody Mikkelson was on the album, but is not currently in the band. The album was written by Kingman during his late teens. “He wrote most of these songs while living in the century-old former Champoeg Schoolhouse depicted on the cover, which is his family home in the heart of the Willamette Valley,” says Spada. Kingman says he wants those listening to connect with how he felt at the time saying, “I want people to feel human. I want people to feel that they experienced something uniquely Northwestern. Something raw and personal and honest, but really, something deeply familiar.” Notable songs on the album include “Make War With Your Heart” (a personal favorite on repeat), “Oh My,” and “A Whiskey Song.” The Hill Dogs can be found on Facebook and Twitter, as well as ReverbNation/thehilldogs.

“12 Angry Jurors” raises difficult questions
35
By Jared Rasic
Rayni Williams’ photography tells a story, calmly. Her nature work, cityscapes and portraits find the ghosts hidden within regular perception. For example, a rain-drenched bench downtown late at night doesn’t just convey the chilly expanse of the evening; instead, her lens finds the isolation of the moment. A photo of Smith Rock doesn’t just capture the majestic beauty, but finds something of the inherently ancient and wizened personality there, too.
Tensions get heated onstage at CTC's production of "12 Angry Jurors." Photo by Emily Cady.
“1
2 Angry Jurors” is a combination of a few different things. It takes the script based on Reginald Rose’s 1954 teleplay and small pieces of the script for “12 Angry Women” by Sherman Sergel and mashes them together. The 1957 Henry Fonda film is still in circulation, so multiple generations are familiar with the seminal motion picture, which the play also takes advantage of. This mashup makes for a theatrical experience that is just as important and timely now as it was over half a century ago. The story is deceptively simple. A jury is in deliberations about a case. A young black man is on trial for murdering his father with a knife. The jury sees the case as open and shut, with most of the jurors in a hurry to finish up and move on with their lives. Almost immediately they take a vote and see that there is only one of the group who finds the defendant not guilty. It’s not even that the juror necessarily thinks the boy is innocent, he just believes time should be spent weighing the evidence before deciding a life is forfeited. The entirety of the play is those 12 men and women discussing the legal system, reasonable doubt and the prejudices humanity holds, surface level and otherwise. Director Brad Thompson has done something very interesting with the staging here. Having a dozen men and
women onstage at once is a daunting task. Sometimes there are upward of 14 people onstage including the guard and the translator for a hearing impaired juror. All of the characters are acting on moment-to-moment motivation, so there is always someone moving, someone speaking over someone else, or someone wrapped up in an internal monologue. This creates a sense of organized chaos that makes the play feel alive in contrast to most plays, which feel staged. An audience could watch the show three nights in a row and just pick out one character to follow, seeing a completely different take on the same material each night. Cascades Theatrical Company has also started having a performance during each run of the show with sign language translators present for the hearing impaired and “12 Angry Jurors” has two of them, who work together so that their translating plays like a two-person show of the material. With two and three characters sometimes speaking over each other, the performance of these translators is almost virtuosic and incredible to witness. Thompson also wanted to cast a hearing impaired actor for one of the roles in the show. “I teach middle school and where I teach there’s a deaf student” says Thompson. “He has an interpreter who walks around with him all day and
signs and interprets for him. We got talking one day and Charisse [Josi] has done some of the ASL interpreting for theatre. She asked if they could shadow one of the actors on stage. Thompson says that he thought it might be a little awkward, but one of the jurors could be deaf, so the idea was incorporated into the play. None of the actors who auditioned were hearing impaired, so Mary Hildebrant, an actress with full hearing, was cast. She had very little experience with sign language before the show, so learning an entirely new language was quite the challenge. “I’ve had three or four different ladies teaching me sign language,” she says. “Everyone teaches you differently because that’s how they would do it,” she explains. “12 Angry Jurors” is a remarkable play because of how important the ideas behind it still are. As long as the play and the film still survive, then each new generation can learn about civics and ethics from this jury room. SW

Getting lost in the woods and mountains is how Williams says she combats being wracked with boredom, which in turn informs her process. “Most photographers will tell you that they take a lot of shots and then pick and choose,” Williams explains. “I’m the opposite. I will take pictures until I get that one shot and call it good.” Those days and nights of getting lost have led to her work feeling like found footage snapshots of the nooks and crannies of Central Oregon. Photographing something as iconic as Smith Rock or the high desert may seem like an easy task, but her eye doesn’t settle on the friendliest framing or composition. She searches for the angle that says something about the subject, something more than “Isn’t this pretty?” She resists putting her inspiration into words. “It’s a feeling, a high that I search the Pacific Northwest to find, but no one thing inspires me.” She does, however, thank her grandmother, Sophie Cashman, and A.J. Pollard for encouraging her to become better photographer. Williams began her photography career as a sophomore at Mountain View High in Bend. “I had a delightful teacher who let me come and use the dark room even when I was done at Mountain View, but I think the day I got my SLR [single-lens reflex camera] is when I finally buckled down with it and got serious about honing my skills,” she says.

By Laura Parker 37 Additional treatments include a hot stone massage, warm grounding stones, Dead Sea salt-infused scrub and paraffin dip. Full body massages are offered by appointment.
She was introduced to the concept of a daily foot treatment ritual when she was teaching Ayurvedic principles in Singapore and Indonesia, where there were foot treatments on every corner.
Sole Footbar is offering a Mother’s Day special of a second treatment at half price when one is purchased at full price. For other ideas, date nights are encouraged with treatment for two, and with wedding season approaching, the venue is a novel idea for bridal showers for up to eight people. Sip Wine Bar and Sole have joined forces to bring an extra flair to Sip’s ladies night on Wednesdays with a sip and soak to combine the best of both worlds. SW
After 20 years of massaging in spas and private practice, as well as founding and co-creating the spa training curriculum for Central Oregon Community College’s massage program, Frazier was ready to create her dream of opening her own foot spa. With the support of her business partner Susan Mondry, her vision came to fruition. The décor of Sole Footbar includes lighted candles along the walls, fresh flowers, and infused seasonal oils that lend to the initial feeling of home, though many find they are transported to a much more exotic place. “It’s an experience of the

five senses,” explains Frazier, a licensed massage therapist. She incorporates hot stone massage as well as essential oils into her treatments. Once she presses in between the shoulder blades, the problems of the day fly away. Then come the hot rocks, the warm cloths, and the soothing smells of orange and vetiver. The “Bar” is made up of three cozy couches, each separated for privacy. All one must do is sit down and surrender. With bare feet cradled by river rock at the bottom of a deep black ceramic foot bowl, hot and cold water are swirled together from separate vessels to bring
the water to an appropriate temperature for each individual. The customer is then presented with a choice of four seasonal essential oil blends, some of which are gem infused oils. Each treatment also includes epsom salts, dead sea salts, and a special Metolius tea blend that go into the tub and dissolve for healing effects. Tea is served by request and the tea menu includes black, green, white, chai and herbal Metolius teas. Every foot treatment includes a head, neck and shoulder massage, warm neck wrap, and a leg and foot massage ending with a peppermint splash.

'Tarzan,' the Musical, Swings Into Bend The future of theatre is in BEAT's good hands By Jared Rasic soon to be released film, starring Alexander Skarsgard as Tarzan and Margot Robbie as Jane. However, the big difference is that BEAT’s performance is a musical based on the 1999 Disney animated film with songs by Phil Collins and score by Mark Mancina. The 1999 film won an Academy Award for Best Original Song that year with “You’ll be in My Heart.”

end Experimental Art Theatre (BEAT) will present the Disney musical production “Tarzan” from May 6 to 15 at Summit High School. The cast for this award-winning musical includes more than five dozen young performers
and a live orchestra of youth musicians. Local actor Steven Livingston is playing Tarzan and Eva Merrill plays Jane. The play is timed perfectly, since there are currently numerous movie previews and commercial breaks heralding the
BEAT Children’s Theatre, founded in 2006, provides classes for kids and young adults to train in acting for the stage, often with a performance of a play as the culminating goal of the season. Occasionally, the lead role is played by someone older, to carry the show and enhance the experience for the youngsters, and this is the case with “Tarzan.” Livingston takes the lead, instilling a thoughtful depth of comprehension to the role. “This is a character who faces trials and difficult decisions around every corner of the story. I try to bring out his struggle of transforming from beast to man,” he says.
Bringing that energy to a character so iconic and well known has brought a unique set of challenges to playing the role. “There are some aspects of Tarzan that can’t change, which in and of itself is a challenge, but there are a few things I try to highlight more,” says Livingston. “I try to bring out these emotions of confusion, angst, pride and love throughout all of Tarzan’s journey,” he explains. BEAT’s production of “Tarzan” is a wonderful training ground for the next generation of actors, musical theater artists, directors, choreographers, costume designers and technical crew. The future of theatre is in good hands. SW "Tarzan" Friday, May 6 to Sunday, May 15.

Mother’s Day Brunch Guide By Angela Moore 39 VOLUME 20 ISSUE 18 / May 5, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY
Sunriver Resort's annual Mother’s Day Brunch will be a scrumptious feast to behold. Photos courtesy of Sunriver Resort.
A
lthough it’s not necessary to wait until the second Sunday of May (May 8 this year) to celebrate that special maternal person in life, it is a great excuse to get together and go to brunch. After all, brunch, flowers, chocolate and moms go together so well. The flowers and sweets are the individual’s responsibility; however,
the Source Weekly can help with the mid-day eatery plans. Brunch is nature’s way of saying, “Hey, no need to put off eating between breakfast and lunch. No more choosing eggs or salad. Have both, and make mama proud.”
McMenamins Old St. Francis School
Sunriver Resort
Pronghorn Resort
Mother’s Cafe
If something within town is appealing, then this is the spot of choice. Reservations are required, so act quickly. This is a bountiful buffet-style second breakfast, which includes, but isn’t limited to: French toast, biscuits with sausage gravy, specialty salads (fancy!), and other classic items such as eggs and fresh fruit.
The Sunriver Resort is ideal for families who want to take their special mama-figure to a nearby resort getaway that is close, but far enough away to make a difference. The Sunriver Resort is offering a classic brunch with an additional $8 charge for adults drinking champagne or mimosas.
Pronghorn’s Mother’s Day menu is designed to be an elegant experience, starting with freshly brewed Bellatazza coffee, orange and cranberry juice. The edibles are what one would expect from this high-end resort: domestic cheese board, dried fruit, house-made crackers, organic greens, an enticing grilled local kale salad with pancetta, garlic croutons and parmesan. For the main event there is a grilled wild king salmon with a cherry gastrique, a sauce made from carmelized sugar and vinegar, as well as a cherry compote. A carved, herb-rubbed Wagyu sirloin accompanied by an au jus and horseradish cream is also offered. Sides will include an assortment of vegetables pureed, whipped and sautéed and desserts include a warm flourless chocolate cake for those preferring to dine gluten-free.
Notable Mention: Mother’s Cafe (at both Eastside and Galveston) offers a free 16-ounce smoothie to all moms present to accept on Mother's Day.
This Bend establishment also boasts of a selection of desserts especially for Mother’s Day. Something for everyone, it seems. For those with out-of-town guests arriving, Old St. Francis offers hotel rooms and even a small cottage that sleeps six to ten. The Old St. Francis movie theater could be a great second act to the morning, catching a matinee with mom after a wonderful brunch. Reservations are available online.
The menu starts with cured and smoked Pacific salmon with capers, diced red onion, cream cheese and chopped hard boiled egg. Hand-rolled smoked salmon sushi will also be available, as well as vegetable rolls to make sure everyone is happy with what is in front of them. The resort will also offer peel and eat shrimp, a carving station with slow roasted prime rib, a made-toorder omelet station, salads, antipasti and desserts. These are just some of the offerings for those who attend.

T
he annual India pale ale collaboration between Astoria’s Fort George Brewery and two other craft outfits, 3-Way IPA, brings an annual introduction to other regional beer talents. This has included Seattle’s Georgetown, pFriem from Hood River and Block 15 Brewing based in Corvallis. The 2016 version, due out this summer, is the work of Fort George, Barley Brown’s Beer in Baker City and Melvin Brewing, based in the western Wyoming town of Alpine (population: 828). Who are those guys? IPA giants, that’s who—and soon Melvin is going to be the name on the lips of beer fans across the Pacific Northwest. The brewery was launched by Jeremy Tofte, a native of Montana who grew up in Bend and went to Central Oregon Community College in the 1980s. Tofte later moved to the Wyoming resort town of Jackson Hole, where he ran a failing Asian restaurant called Thai Me Up (no, really, that’s the name) and bought a 20-gallon brew system in 2009 in order to drum up some customers. He was joined by Kirk McHale, who built brewing experience at several locations in San Diego’s Pizza Port chain of brewpubs, and provided all the medals on its wall (including Small Brew Pub of the Year at the 2015 Great American Beer Fest), which tells the rest of the story.
Jackson, but Melvin recently upgraded from a three-barrel brew system to a 30-barrel one in nearby Alpine, allowing it to expand distribution to Colorado, Washington, Idaho, and now Oregon. Official distribution here will begin this summer, but a few barrels have already passed into the state, including Asterisk, a malty IPA that showed up unannounced at Brother Jon’s Alehouse last week. Melvin’s bread and butter is all about being bitter, and once distribution begins in earnest, Oregon will see cans of both its regular IPA and its 2x4 Double IPA, which won gold at GABF, and has since appeared at Portland bars such as NWIPA, Apex, and The Beermongers. In other words, 3-Way is only the beginning for hop heads. SW

Punks vs. Skinheads
“Green Room” paints Portland in a violent light By Jared Rasic
WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / MAY 5, 2016 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

You will never watch "Star Trek: The Next Generation" the same way again.
J
eremy Saulnier’s modern classic, “Green Room,” viscerally punches the audience in the face with every death. The script gives each character at least one moment to be human, even those who wouldn’t deserve it in a lesser film. Nothing is easy here, every choice is fraught with dire consequences and repercussions. There aren’t very many action/thrillers that make killing look incredibly difficult and awful. Sometimes there is slow motion and a swelling of music when the good guys kill the bad guys or silence for when a good guy falls. Life and death moments are when audiences chew their popcorn a little slower, but ultimately are allowed to move on unscathed to the next scene. If the description for this movie could only be one sentence long, it would have to be “Punks vs. Skinheads in the Pacific Northwest,” but luckily, there is more room to explain. Pat, Sam, Tiger and Re-
ece are in a punk band called “The Ain’t Rights.” They have just spent the last of their money getting to Seaside, Oregon, to play a show, only to find it’s been cancelled. This leaves this East Coast punk band basically stranded on the West Coast with no money or gas. A fan finds them a gig outside Portland at a neo-Nazi clubhouse in the woods. It would be cruel to give away anything more about the plot other than to say the plan goes horribly wrong and the peaceful band must try to survive a steady onslaught of murderous skinheads. That premise sounds like something geared up for a B-movie or a direct-to-DVD gore-fest; however, “The Green Room” is an expertly crafted exercise in steadily building tension and dread. In just a few short scenes, Saulnier, who hails from a Virginia suburb, turns the script and direction in a way that the audience is fully empathizing with the
four-piece punk band from back east. Anton Yelchin cuts such a likable presence as the band’s so-called leader, that when basically dropped into the middle of hell, the intensity of the band’s plight and the brutality of the violence becomes fairly nerve shredding. If the film were more lowbrow in its aspirations, the violence and gore would seem gratuitous, but here it only adds to the nightmarish quality of the entire experience. Cast against type, Sir Patrick Stewart (Captain Jean-Luc Picard in “Star Trek: The Next Generation”) plays the leader of the neo-Nazis. He is a terrifying figure without once having to yell to get his point across. His right hand man is played by Macon Blair, the star of Saulnier’s last film, “Blue Ruin.” The contrast between the two performances is incredible and Blair proves to be an actor who will move on to massive performances in the future. Stewart and Blair together are a pair of

the best on-screen villains in years. All hyperbole aside, “The Green Room” is a phenomenal action/thriller/horror hybrid that shares DNA with classic exploitation films of the 1970s, punk music from the 1980s and a modern visual vocabulary. Every frame is alive with vibrant color, gritty texture and edgy performances. The script is so tightly wound that every scene feels like the inevitable follow-up to what came previous. Poor choices are made by all the characters, but they feel earned and made out of terror instead of plot contrivances. “Green Room” is likely to scare off anyone considering a move to Portland in the near future, but that’s probably all right.

s a lead-up to its festival in October of this year, BendFilm is hosting renowned poet Jimmy Santiago Baca for a Thursday night reception and film screening of the award-winning documentary, “A Place to Stand,” based on Baca’s critically-acclaimed memoir of the same name. After the viewing, an interactive Q&A will take place with Jimmy and local poet and recording artist, MOsely WOtta, at the Tower Theatre. The two will share why art in Bend remains such a powerful community experience. Jimmy returns to Bend for the first time after his celebrated Nature of Words-hosted appearance in 2010. “We are incredibly excited to host Jimmy. His personal story speaks to the life-changing power of arts and culture,” said BendFilm Director Todd Looby. “It is clear that he made an unforgettable impression when he came in 2010, and we thought what better way to re-inspire BendFilm-goers and get them ready for our festival than by hosting one of their favorite artists? We are excited to introduce Jimmy and his message to a new audience and re-inspire those he has already deeply affected with his work.”
The evening will begin with a reception, raffle and fundraiser at the Liberty Theatre, made possible in part by Elixir Wine Group, Bigfoot Beverages, and Bendistillery, who will sponsor the drinks paired with heavy appetizers. During the reception, Jimmy will be available to answer questions and converse with the guests before the screening.

CITY OF GOLD: This is a heartwarming documentary about Jonathan Gold, the first Pulitzer Prize-winner for food criticism. As a writer for the LA Weekly and Los Angeles Times, Gold’s reviews shed light on dozens and dozens of tiny, out of the way ethnic restaurants, helping add some real culture to Los Angeles. The documentary is simultaneously an excellent look at a dedicated writer, while also being a love letter to the City of Angels and all of the different cultures that make up the city. A very fun watch. Now playing at Tin Pan Theater CRIMINAL: Kevin Costner plays an ex-con who is implanted with the memories of a dead spy in order to finish his assignment. The trailer is pretty terrible, but a cast featuring Costner, Tommy Lee Jones, Gal Gadot, Gary Oldman, Michael Pitt, Alice Eve, Scott Adkins and Ryan Reynolds is a movie that must be seen. One hopes it will at least be a fun and exciting diversion, but critical reviews are not being kind. Now playing at Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX EVERYBODY WANTS SOME: The new film from the director of “Dazed and Confused” moves past the 1970s and takes on the 1980s. Featuring great music, ridiculous wardrobes and a fun premise, “Everybody Wants Some” is a solid look at American culture and very much worth audiences’ time and money. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX.

A HOLOGRAM FOR THE KING: Despite little fanfare for the movie, it has a great director (Tom Tykwer, famous for “Run Lola Run”), is based on an excellent novel by Dave Eggers (“A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius”), and features one of the world’s most beloved movie stars, Tom Hanks. “King” tells the story of a corporate businessman

THE HUNTSMAN: WINTER'S WAR: With a cast featuring three of the most talented female actresses on the planet, “The Hunstman” should be a guaranteed good movie. Somehow, the terrible marketing for a sequel to a useless movie doesn’t inspire much confidence. Still, Charlize Theron, Emily Blunt and Jessica Chastain together in a film is reason enough to check it out. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX
THE JUNGLE BOOK: In what is easily the best film of 2016 so far, director Jon Favreau takes a very familiar story and tells it so perfectly that it seems timeless. “The Jungle Book” is a seamless vision into a world of talking animals and with Christopher Walken, Idris Elba, Bill Murray, Lupita Nyong’o and more voicing the characters, the animals never feel less than real. There are scary moments and some violence, but the teachable moments in this film make it required viewing for families across the world. Now Playing at Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX
KEANU: The comedic duo Key and Peele finally make a big screen debut! This violent comedy is about the lengths two men will go to in order to retrieve their kidnapped kitten. The two men (fairly square middle class African Americans) will have to go undercover as hardcore gang members in order to rescue their kitten Keanu in what one hopes will be the funniest comedy of the year. One episode of Key and Peele proves how funny these two men are and deserving of a much larger platform. Now playing at Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX MARGUERITE: A comedic drama about a renowned opera singer who is almost always off key and terrible. What could have ended up being a one-joke premise stretched to two hours, “Marguerite” is instead a touching and slyly funny look at the little white lies we tell ourselves and others to make life just a little bit easier. Very much worth checking out whether an opera fan or not. Now playing at Tin Pan Theater MOTHER’S DAY: This is a holiday movie specifically made for the occasion. This one is from director Garry Marshall, director of “Valentine’s Day,” “New Year’s Eve” and Pretty Woman.” It follows several sets of unconnected people as they deal with the relationships they have with their mothers. With a cast featuring Julia Roberts, Jennifer Aniston, Kate Hudson, Cameron Esposito, Margo Martindale and a dozen others, expect this movie to appeal to many women across the country. Now playing at Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX Ratchet & Clank 3D: Based on the series of video games launched in 2002, the games follow a feline-like thing named Ratchet who meets a little robot named Clank and they team up to save the universe from the evil trying to destroy it.

Therefore, thousands of monarchs found in the eastern and central US make annual flights south of 1,500 miles and more to Mexico. The trip back to their summer range is not as rapid. The surviving adults begin their trek north, and when they come to milkweed, stop, mate, lay eggs and die. Their job is done, they have kept the species alive; it’s now up to the next generation to hatch, munch on milkweed to the chrysalis stage, metamorphose into adults, emerge from that exquisite opaque container, dry out their wings and head north. This process will sometimes take up to five generations before the adults arrive back in their summer range. Question: How do they know where they’re going? The western population of monarchs— found west of the Rocky Mountains— migrates to sites in California, but has been found overwintering in Nevada (near Las Vegas) and Mexico as well. Monarch butterfly caterpillars do not eat anything but milkweed. Over the years, agricultural interests have been slowly eradicating milkweed throughout North America, and have been using various chemicals for food production that have harmful effects on developing caterpillars as well as adult butterflies. The results have been disastrous; in Iowa, native milkweed has been put on the state’s Threatened Species list. In order to help rebuild monarch numbers in Oregon, several groups of monarch restoration experts have joined together and formed the Monarch Advocates of Central Oregon (MACO). MACO is inviting you to come learn about the monarch’s incredible migrations and learn how you can support them through habitat restoration, citizen science projects, and more. The first free monarch event will take place May 10 at the Sunriver Nature Center in the Pozzi building at 6:30 p.m. Tom Landis of the Southern Oregon Monarch Association will present a talk on the science behind the various monarch recovery projects and how residents

of Central Oregon can create monarch waystations. Reservations can be made by calling: 541-593-4394. On May 12, another free monarch event will take place at 6:30 p.m. in the Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Central Oregon meeting hall located at 61980 Skyline Ranch Road in Bend. Doors will open at 6pm. Speakers will include Katya Spiecker, Founder of MACO; Matt Horning, USFS Geneticist; David James, Associate Professor of Entomology, and Tom Landis. Spiecker will highlight local conservation work; Horning will cover the regional monarch monitoring project; James will discuss the Western Monarch Tagging Program; and Landis will explain how to create a monarch waystation and his restoration work in Southwest Oregon. Organizers of the monarch event, MACO, and Great Old Broads for Wilderness, have asked those who are planning on attending the May 12 event to make reservations by visiting the MACO Facebook page. Seating is limited. The monarch butterfly, Danaus plexippus, also known as the milkweed butterfly, common tiger, or wanderer, is often mistaken for our western tiger, viceroy and fritillary butterflies. Without question, it is the most familiar North American butterfly, and is considered an iconic pollinator species. The eastern North American monarch population is notable for its annual southward late-summer/autumn migra-
tory flight from Canada and the United States to Mexico. During the fall migration, monarchs cover thousands of miles, with a corresponding multi-generational return north. Monarchs are considered so special in the scientific community that NASA transported several adult butterflies to the International Space Station and bred them there, but did not let them out to migrate to their wintering grounds. The predicted fate of the monarch is alarming after the findings of a recent study predicted an 11 percent to 57 percent probability that the population will go extinct over the next 20 years. With financial support from the nonprofit organization Awesome Bend last year, nine gardens containing 50 milkweed plantings were created locally. These monarch waystations are crucial to the butterfly’s survival and more such safe havens are needed. Everyone from individuals to families to neighborhoods to whole communities can participate in this national effort to preserve this iconic king of the winged insect world. A few words of caution: There are ONLY two native milkweeds that will work for this area: the Showy Milkweed, Asclepias speciosa is one, and for drier habitats, the Narrow-leaf Milkweed, Asclepias fascicularis, is the other. Be mindful of the type of milkweed planted. There are some plant suppliers that are offering foreign species, some of which will actually harm monarchs. SW
Though reading about the past is fun, it’s always more exciting to discover it in nature. The Pine Tree Mill Hike offers hikers an evening of exploration, combining beautiful trails with fascinating history. Hosted by the Deschutes Land Trust, this hike will explore the Skyline Forest to discuss Bend’s early logging and irrigation efforts—the hike starts at an old lumber mill from 1916.

The two-mile, moderate trail is perfect for hikers and historians of all skill levels, and is led by a member of Bend Parks and Recreation. This free hike is scheduled for Tuesday, May 10, at 5:30 p.m., and hikers are encouraged to bring their own snacks. To register, visit www.deschuteslandtrust.org.

All In A Day’s Jerk
—Betrayed Workers’ comp covers many on-the-job accidents— but unfortunately not the kind where a married man slips into a hotel at lunch and has sex with his co-worker. Granted, that isn’t what happened here. But you don’t have to have the fun to have the fallout, which is why some execs now avoid having closed-door meetings with opposite-sex co-workers. Also consider that when somebody has a lot to lose, they have a lot to fear. We all hope for life-changing experiences, but it’s best if they aren’t getting fired, going through a bitter divorce, and having the ex-wife drop off the kids on alternating weekends: “Okay, boys, time to put down the Xbox and go visit your dad at the homeless shelter!” And no, he never announced to his wife, “Hey, honey, I’m mentoring this total hotbody. There’s a rumor that we’re hooking up. Believe me, I wish we were…” Of course, he wouldn’t say that, but he probably senses what psychologist Paul Ekman has found—that we tend to “leak” what we’re really feeling through facial expressions and body language (especially if these include Gollum-like panting and slobbering: “Must. Have. The. Precious”). You probably understand this intellectually. But the sting from being socially amputated comes out of what psychologist Donna Hicks, an international conflict resolution specialist, deems a “dignity violation.” Hicks describes dignity as “an internal state of peace” we feel from being treated as if we have value and our feelings matter. Because we evolved as a cooperative species and reputation was essential to our remaining in our ancestral band, we react to threats to our dignity as we would threats to our survival. You patch up your dignity not by marching around all butthurt while waiting for him to repair it but by calmly taking the initiative. Tell him that you miss having
Trading What’s-His-Faces I’m a 34-year-old woman who’s been in a yearlong relationship with a wonderful man. I’ve caught myself several times almost calling him by my ex’s name.

—Disturbed It’s like when you pour orange juice on your cereal instead of milk, which surely only happens because you’ve been having sex dreams about fruit salad. If your near name slips are a sign of anything, it’s probably that you need a snack and a nap. Your brain is an energy hog, so it likes to cut corners where it can, especially when you’re tired. Basically, like your web browser, it’s big on autofill. In researcher-speak, this means it makes “retrieval errors”—reaching into the right file drawer but just grabbing any old name and then going, “Yeah, whatever…good enough.” Research by psychological anthropologist Alan Page Fiske finds that the biggest predictors for name swapping are the same “mode of relationship”—like here, where both names are from the boyfriend zone— and being “of the same gender.” Boringly reassuring, I hope. There’s also a boringly simple fix—from memory researcher David Balota: asking and answering the question “What is my current boyfriend’s name?” using “spaced retrieval.” This means setting a timer for, say, 15 seconds and then 45 seconds and then two minutes so you’re recalling the name on demand (as opposed to just reciting it over and over again). You might also try to see these near errors as a sign of the rich tapestry of our bustling modern lives, or some bullshit like that. At least that’s what I tried to tell myself last week when I got off the phone with “Love you!” and heard back, “Um, yes, ma’am. Thank you for choosing AT&T.”

I’m a happily married 30-year-old woman. A co-worker pointed out a senior trainer at work constantly sneaking lustful glances at me. I was later assigned to his section. We quickly became close friends and he began mentoring me. He’s married, too, with two children, so though we were extremely flirtatious, nothing inappropriate ever happened and I told my husband about him. Recently, there were rumors that this man and I were hooking up. He freaked, saying he could lose everything, and cut off our mentorship and our friendship. This was a real slap in the face, as was learning that he’d never told his wife about me. Should I confront him about how bad it feels to be cut off by him?
him as a friend and mentor—but that you understand. Counterintuitively, you should find that being the bigger one makes you feel better. Acting like the antithesis of the scorned work wife should help him ease up, too. Though it’s unlikely that things will go back to how they were, he should at least stop treating you like poison ivy in career separates.

Rural Studio’s Affordable Design-Builds
For the last decade, Rural Studio has designed a dozen homes in a small town that are affordable for those living below the poverty line, while paying living wages for the construction. Each project is used as a learning tool to find new adjustments and improvements. The homes designed are a compact 550 square feet, but are much larger than the average tiny home, generally considered to be under 220 square feet. Now, the design-build program has com-

pleted its first pilot project in partnership with a commercial developer in a tiny community called Serenbe, outside of Atlanta. The students designed two homes. For each one-bedroom house, materials cost $14,000. Like tiny homes, there are many of the same dilemmas of zoning and acceptance of construction methods by city planners. Zoning problems stem from square footage criteria and because construction methods are a little different, using techniques such as a cantilever foundation unfamiliar to many planners.

The houses do not use pre-fabricated parts (in part because one of the goals of the program is to create jobs), and have a nice look to them. These smaller structures would fit in well in mountain towns, much like cabins in a forest. There are many places in Central Oregon where such conditions exist and the need for affordable housing is present. SW

ocial media is a great source of ideas and inspiration about new solutions to affordable housing. As a realtor, one newsfeed that caught my eye recently included $20,000 homes created by architecture students at Auburn University’s design-build program called Rural Studio. Rural Studio “seeks solutions to the needs of the community within the community’s own context, not from outside it,” according to its website.

ASTROLOGY
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): According to author Vladimir Nabokov, the Russian word toska means “a dull ache of the soul, a longing with nothing to long for, a sick pining, a vague restlessness.” Linguist Anna Wierzbicka says it conveys an emotion that blends melancholy, boredom, and yearning. Journalist Nick Ashdown suggests that for someone experiencing toska, the thing that’s yearned for may be “intangible and impossible to actually obtain.” How are doing with your own toska, Gemini? Is it conceivable that you could escape it—maybe even heal it? I think you can. I think you will. Before you do, though, I hope you’ll take time to explore it further. Toska has more to teach you about the previously hidden meaning of your life.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): “Gandhi’s autobiography is on my pillow,” writes Cancerian poet Buddy Wakefield. “I put it there every morning after making my bed so I’ll remember to read it before falling asleep. I’ve been reading it for 6 years. I’m on Chapter 2.” What’s the equivalent phenomenon in your world, my fellow Crab? What good deed or righteous activity have you been pursuing with glacial diligence? Is there a healthy change you’ve been thinking about forever, but not making much progress on? The mood and the sway of the coming days will bring you a good chance to expedite the process. In Wakefield’s case, he could get up to Chapter 17. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): In the 16th century, European explorers searched South America in quest of a mythical city of gold known as El Dorado. Tibetan Buddhist tradition speaks of Shambhala, a magical holy kingdom where only enlightened beings live. In the legends of ancient Greece, Hyperborea was a sunny paradise where the average human life span was a thousand years and happiness was normal. Now is an excellent time for you to fantasize about your own version of utopia, Leo. Why? First, your imagination is primed to expand. Second, dreaming big will be good for your mental and physical health. There’s another reason, too: By envisioning the most beautiful world possible, you will mobilize your idealism and boost your ability to create the best life for yourself in the coming months.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): “Anytime you’re going to grow, you’re going to lose something,” said psychologist James Hillman. “You’re losing what you’re hanging onto to keep safe. You’re losing habits that you’re comfortable with, you’re losing familiarity.” I nominate these thoughts to serve as your words of wisdom in the coming weeks, Virgo. From an astrological perspective, you are in a phase when luxuriant growth is possible. To harvest the fullness of the lush opportunities, you should be willing to shed outworn stuff that might interfere.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): On Cracked.com, Auntie Meme tells us that many commonly-held ideas about history are wrong. There were no such things as chastity belts in the Middle Ages, for example. Napoleon’s soldiers didn’t shoot off the nose of the Sphinx when they were stationed in Egypt. In regards to starving peasants, Marie Antoinette never derisively said, “Let them eat cake.” And no Christians ever became meals for lions in ancient Rome’s Colosseum. (More: tinyurl.com/historicaljive.) In the spirit of Auntie Meme’s exposé, and in alignment with the astrological omens, I invite you to uncover and correct at least three fabrications, fables,
and lies about your own past.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Poet Charles Wright marvels at the hummingbird, “who has to eat sixty times his own weight a day just to stay alive. Now that’s a life on the edge.” In the coming weeks, Scorpio, your modus operandi may have resemblances to the hummingbird’s approach. I don’t mean to suggest that you will be in a manic survival mode. Rather, I expect you’ll feel called to nourish your soul with more intensity than usual. You’ll need to continuously fill yourself up with experiences that inspire, teach, and transform you.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): “Anybody can become angry,” said Greek philosopher Aristotle. “That is easy; but to be angry with the right person, and to the right degree, and at the right time, for the right purpose, and in the right way, that is not within everybody’s power and is not easy.” I’m pleased to inform you, Sagittarius, that now is a time when you have an exceptional capacity for meeting Aristotle’s high standards. In fact, I encourage you to honor and learn all you can from your finely-honed and well-expressed anger. Make it work wonders for you. Use it so constructively that no one can complain.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): To celebrate your arrival at the height of your sex appeal, I’m resurrecting the old-fashioned word “vavoom.” Feel free to use it as your nickname. Pepper it into your conversations in place of terms like “awesome,” “wow,” or “yikes.” Use a felt-tip marker to make a temporary VAVOOM tattoo on your beautiful body. Here are other enchanted words you should take charge of and make an intimate part of your daily presentation: verve, vim, vivid, vitality, vigor, voracious, vivacious, visceral, valor, victory, and VIVA! AQUARIUS (Jan. 20Feb. 18): When he was a boy, Mayan poet Humberto Ak’ab’al asked his mother, “What are those things that shine in the sky?” “Bees,” she answered mischievously. “Every night since then,” Humberto writes, “my eyes eat honey.” In response to this lyrical play, the logical part of our brains might rise up and say, “What a load of nonsense!” But I will ask you to set aside the logical part of your brain for now, Aquarius. According to my understanding of the astrological omens, the coming days will be a time when you need a big dose of sweet fantasies, dreamy stories, and maybe even beautiful nonsense. What are your equivalents of seeing bees making honey in the night sky’s pinpoints of light?

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): “Sometimes, a seemingly insignificant detail reveals a whole world,” says artist Pierre Cordier. “Like the messages hidden by spies in the dot of an i.” These are precisely the minutiae that you should be extra alert for in the coming days, Pisces. Major revelations may emerge from what at first seems trivial. Generous insights could ignite in response to small acts of beauty and subtle shifts of tone. Do you want glimpses of the big picture and the long-range future? Then be reverent toward the fine points and modest specifics.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): “Silence is not silence, but a limit of hearing,” writes Jane Hirshfield in her poem “Everything Has Two Endings.” This observation is apropos for you right now. There are potentially important messages you’re not registering and catalytic influences you can’t detect. But their apparent absence is due to a blank spot in your awareness, or maybe a willful ignorance left over from the old days. Now here’s the good news: You are primed to expand your listening field. You have an enhanced ability to open certain doors of perception that have been closed. If you capitalize on this opportunity, silence will give way to revelation.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Your ability to accomplish magic is at a peak, and will continue to soar for at least two more weeks. And when I use that word “magic,” I’m not referring to the hocus-pocus performed by illusionists like Criss Angel or Harry Houdini. I’m talking about real feats of transformation that will generate practical benefits in your day-to-day life. Now study the following definitions by writer Somerset Maugham, and have faith in your ability to embody them: “Magic is no more than the art of employing consciously invisible means to produce visible effects. Will, love, and imagination are magic powers that everyone possesses; and whoever knows how to develop them to their fullest extent is a magician.”

BARTER BELIEVER
his week brings sad news from Hawaii, where Woody Harrelson’s application to open a medical marijuana dispensary was rejected by state officials. The state approved eight applications out of 60 submitted. The eight stores permitted under state law in Hawaii will consist of three in Honolulu, two on the Big Island, two on Maui, and one on Kauai – none of which will be owned by the legendary stoner who keeps a house on Maui. State officials gave no reasons for rejecting the application by Harrelson’s company, but maybe they figure Woody already has enough of his own.
T
legislature, and expected to become law soon, allows visitors to purchase as much cannabis as Coloradans.
Last year, Ohio voters rejected a very strange ballot measure that would have granted one private company a legal monopoly on selling both recreational cannabis and medical marijuana in the state. Now, a bipartisan medical marijuana bill is pending in the state legislature. A Republican physician is among the sponsors of the bill, and the Republican-led state House is expected to open the measure to floor debate and a vote. Legalization of medical marijuana in Ohio would mark the half-way point for US states, with 25 allowing medicinal use.
In March and April, federal and state police conducted a series of raids throughout the heavily populated Front Range area in Colorado that resulted in more than 40 arrests and seizure of over 30,000 illegally-grown cannabis plants. Colorado US Attorney John Walsh says the raids are part of a concerted effort to stop an increasing number of unlicensed growing operations. Most of the people arrested in the raids were not Colorado residents, and many were foreign nationals from Mexico, Honduras and other Latin American countries.
Cannabis legalization trailblazer Colorado is further liberalizing its cannabis regulatory scheme. Currently, visitors to Colorado are only allowed to purchase one-quarter ounce per day in Colorado, whereas residents can purchase up to an ounce. A bill pending in the Colorado
The restrictions were intended to prevent tourists from taking their purchases home with them, and are unique among states legalizing cannabis, but Colorado Sen. Cheri Jahn, a Democrat sponsoring the bill, says regulators have found “that’s really not happening.” Instead, Colorado cannabis regulators and law enforcement officials have found that there is a problem with illegal grow operations in Colorado exporting large volumes of cannabis mainly to eastern states.
Finally, Maine officials announced this week that a referendum proposal to legalize recreational cannabis will appear on the state’s November 2016 ballot. SW
