OPINION Letters

If you’re paying attention, you know that the City is struggling to overcome a determination on the part of the State that Bend is NOT ready for prime time. That is, incapable of expanding its Urban Growth Boundary because it has managed growth very poorly in the past and has yet to present a viable plan for orderly growth moving forward. (Thankfully, at least someone in Salem is paying attention.) The solution, it appears, is to increase density within the city by any and all means possible. Please indulge me this example: Imagine that there are two shoddy single-family homes in your otherwise nice neighborhood. An enterprising developer (who coincidentally owns the houses) decides that it would be profitable to replace those two with 12 housing units (a six-fold increase in density). To do this he’ll build six townhouses and six apartments on that half-acre plot. In order to side-step zoning and subdivision codes, get hundreds of thousands of interest-free money from the city, get reduced permitting fees, and expedited service from the friendly folks at the Planning Dept., he shrewdly proclaims the apartments “affordable” (at least for the first three years). How would you feel about the introduction of 24 new, unrelated neighbors, their cars, their dogs, and the rest into your hood? Now imagine this is next door to YOU. Sadly, this is not hypothetical—this project was just approved. Granted, this hits close to home because I’m that hapless sap that lives next door. But what you need to know is that this can happen anywhere in this town under its current leadership and mindset. And it will happen with the same lack of transparency and accountability that gave us the insider Mirror Pond “fix”, the Tumalo Creek water project, OSU Cascades, and other “fate de completes” that we have become accustomed to.

THE HOMELESS ISSUE The homeless issue is basically an unresolvable issue in this country, due to the way Americans regard the homeless. Most Americans think that homeless people are in the situation they are because they are lazy and don’t want to work. In some cases this is true, but the majority of homeless are where they are due to circumstances such as losing jobs, illness, accidents, victims of crime, etc. We have the worst record of dealing with the homeless of any of the industrialized nations. Many countries, particularly in Scandinavia, have social agencies and programs that are specifically designed to keep people off the streets. Americans basically couldn’t care less about the homeless, until they become homeless themselves. This attitude is mirrored at all levels of local, state and federal government. Homeless people in this country are, for the most part, invisible to all but those who share in their circumstance. Everyone else looks right through them. —Marco Munez

HIRING LOCAL TEENS I want to ask local retail businesses, particularly those in Old Mill and Downtown, why they choose to only hire teenagers 18 and older. My daughter who is 16 recently tried to find a summer job with numerous business in Old Mill, and Downtown only to be told that they don’t hire under 18. “Back in the good ole’ days” when I was a teen, I had great summer jobs. I learned how to deal with the public, learned retail sales, and how to commit to a job when my friends were enticing me to head out to the beach. I think our community may be missing the boat here. It does take a village to raise these kids. We need to give them the opportu-

IN RESPONSE TO “RIVER TRASH: WHOSE MESS IS IT, ANYWAY?” (6/16)

LETTER OF THE WEEK

While the amount of river trash is appalling, at the least, it’s a little unfair to place blame solely on visitors and out-of-towners. Couldn’t it be locals, too? And it’s not just a “river issue.” I ride the river, ride bikes, take hikes, ski, walk my kids to school, and I see trash everywhere. In the gutters on Mt. Washington drive; in the ditch on the way to Horse Ridge; in and around our cave sites; at Phil’s Trailhead; under the chairlift; roadside all along Cascade Hwy., Skyliner, and Shevlin; in the school yard; at the park. And yes, in the river.

Mike—Thank you for your letter about trash around town and also for helping our community by picking it up yourself! Come by the Source office to pick up a Palate gift card, and have some coffee on us.

Don’t even get me started on shoot-pollute: shotgun shells and loads of blown up bits of junk litter our public lands. Illegal dumping, too. I often pick it up, stuff my bike jersey pockets with trash, bottles, cans, during my rides. And the next day, the next week, more trash, same spots, sometimes more than before. I would argue that the litter/trash problem is getting worse. While we could ask, implore, argue that our public/government entities be responsible for cleanup, my point is to direct the spotlight on the throw-away, pollute culture we have in general, and shine it right here, locally. Bend isn’t the dirtiest town, but it sure as heck isn’t

Have you heard? Bend will continue to expand at its current, incredible pace, growing another 40 percent within a decade. While I’m sure that developers, realtors, and those who actually benefit from more people and tourism are jumping for joy, the other 90 percent of us should think again. Personally, I’ve had enough of the local talking-heads (City Council members, Chamber folks, and boosters) who are resigned, if not cheering on, this incredible phenomenon. They do this, all the while denying the state of our infrastructure and governmental dysfunction and being mindlessly resigned to linear growth projections. This is a city that is driven by developers and other absentee-landowners, enabled and facilitated by policy-directed “city planners” operating in the most development-friendly environment imaginable.

Take it from someone who lives on a dirt street with 12 homes. A street (Linster) that’s been here for 115 years, one block from Wall Street in town. A street that the City will never improve (even with gravel), while it builds grand boulevards (Reed Mkt.), roundabouts, and multi-million dollar overpasses to nowhere in the south side to keep the development interests greased. Salem had it right. This town is not ready for growth. And even if it was, “going vertical” and jamming high-density developments in established neighborhoods down our throats is not the answer. Maybe the City should take a breather and think about attracting decent paying jobs before those 35,000 new people arrive. Then it can start thinking about creating well-planned, affordable, sensible housing. And I’m clearly not talking about homes that are shrewdly conceived and designed to meet the minimal criteria for the City’s current developers dream: the shameless “affordable housing bonus” scam. I’ve personally seen where that leads.

Bend Pride and Troy Field: Two Big Winners

WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / June 30, 2016 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

Bend Pride is out of the closet. Photo by CasaBay Photography.

Are your dog’s

ears burning?

e visited the Pride celebration this past weekend in Drake Park, and Bend sure has changed since 2005 when the Human Dignity Coalition and a few dozen brave folks threw the first public Pride celebration in McKay Park. Back in those days, many locals were hesitant to join the party, out of concern that they might be seen there by colleagues or neighbors. PFLAG was there, and Planned Parenthood, but few other community organizations set up booths, making Pride a small gathering in the most closet-like of Bend’s parks. Judging from this weekend’s turnout in Drake Park, Bend’s LGBTQI community has busted out of the closet in fabulous fashion. Same-sex couples strolled through Drake Park holding hands, and no one so much as blinked. Thousands of visitors of all ages visited dozens of community booths, sipped swanky cocktails at Stonewall Lounge, sang along to classic rock songs with a tutu-clad band of youth, and subjected themselves to a bit of raunchy humor

A DOG’S digging at his ears can be the first sign of an allergy or a

simple infection of the outer ear. In fact, about 20% of dogs will get itchy ears at some point in their lives, and it’s one of the most common reasons why dogs are seen by veterinarians. Addressing the root cause of itchy ears can save both you and your dog some scratch. If your dogs ears are burning and it isn’t because you’re telling someone what a great dog he is, stop by and tell us about your dog. We can help you identify the cause and understand the science, and help you find an effective, natural solution.*

Incarcerated Adults Address Chronic Illness Living Well workshops transform prisoners’ lives, save taxpayers’ money

four-year-old program is saving taxpayers more than $10,000 per prisoner, per year, and making life better for people with chronic illnesses living behind bars. Since adopting the Living Well with Chronic Conditions program (LWCC) in 2012, more than 1,000 incarcerated adults in Oregon have improved their health and well-being by completing the course. According to Ann Shindo, PhD, “We’ve seen people embrace the concepts and transform their lives.” Shindo is the Health Promotion Coordinator at the Oregon Department of Corrections and has seen the program, which is offered across the state in and out of the prison system, positively impact individuals who suffer from chronic conditions. LWCC, also known as

Curley is careful to point out that she is not a health professional, and that workshops typically are led by lay-leaders or peer facilitators. Her role is to evoke motivation, helping participants gain the confidence they need to better manage symptoms and day-to-day challenges of living with chronic conditions. By developing self-management skills, participants are empowered to improve their own health and well-being. Curly has been facilitating workshops regularly at Deer Ridge Correctional Facility in Madras and occasionally at Warner Creek Correctional Facility in Lakeview since 2009. The two-and-a half-hour meetings, once a week, over six weeks, teach symptom and medication management, how to work with a healthcare team, weekly goal setting, effective

"Living Well helps flip the switch from feeling bad and being bummed about living with a health problem that will never be solved." - Kim Curley Chronic Disease Self Management Program (SMP), was originally developed and tested at Stanford University. It offers support and practical coping skills for those dealing with illnesses including HIV/AIDS, depression, diabetes, heart disease, chronic pain, anxiety, multiple sclerosis and other health concerns. As the program has grown, the curriculum has branched out to address diabetes, chronic pain, and Tomando Control de su Salud, a Spanish-based self management program. With the exception of the former, Master Trainer Kim Curley Reynolds teaches all branches of programing. Curley, who works for Commute Options, reflects on a prime example of one person’s progress: “A participant was dealing with chronic depression and pain issues. On week one she arrived, dressed in black, sat by herself, and was in a sour mood. Her action plan was to open the curtains and blinds in the house one time this week. By week three she was wearing bright orange clothing, laughing, and chatting with her fellow participants.”

problem-solving, communication, relaxation and handling difficult emotions, eating well, and exercising safely. Each participant in the workshop receives a copy of the companion book, "Living a Healthy Life with Chronic Conditions." Curley says, “There is a person I’m currently working with who has lost over 100 pounds of unwanted weight since he became a leader in November 2015. He is a facilitator of the Hepatitis/HIV Aids Awareness Program and just keeps adding to his healthy habits.” LWCC is not meant to supplement or replace other professional medical treatment. The program can be especially helpful for people dealing with multiple conditions, as it teaches skills to coordinate and manage multifaceted health needs. The program has led to outpatient cost savings by ending insulin-dependence, and ending medication use for diabetes, cardiovascular issues, and other health conditions like depression. Referring to state-wide prison programs specifically, Shindo says, “Quantitative

outcomes show an outpatient cost savings on average of $11,050 per individual (who has) taken LWCC and also had outpatient visits for chronic conditions repeatedly prior to and less often after the program.” She has also witnessed positive changes in decision-making, relationships, nutrition and physical activity. Baseline data are collected for each participant prior to the LWCC course, at the end of the program, and three to six months post-intervention. Shindo cautions that correctional facility sample sizes are small, and studies are ongoing. Nevertheless, decades of data are available through Stanford University at patienteducation.stanford.edu/programs/cdsmp.html. Workshops are not limited to correctional facilities. Brenda Johnson, Regional Coordinator for Chronic Disease SMPs in the Deschutes County Health Department, says they offer the program to between 200 and 250 non-incarcerated Central Oregonians each year. She says, “Stanford’s programs are considered evidence-based and the gold standard.” The county relies on Stanford’s resources and health outcome data and can anecdotally report similar outcomes locally. In Central Oregon, LWCC is a collaborative regional initiative made possible with support from Deschutes, Crook and Jefferson counties, La Pine Community Health Center, St. Charles Health System, Central Oregon Council on Aging, Mosaic Medical, PacificSource and Oregon Health Authority (OHA). The OHA also granted Deschutes County initial funding in 2008 for community LWCC programs and they continue to provide opportunities for leader training. “What really sticks with me,” Curley reflects, “is that people can accomplish their goals if they break them down into doable steps. Living Well helps flip the switch from feeling bad and being bummed about living with a health problem that will never be solved. I think everyone on the planet should take LWCC.” SW LWCC workshops are offered widely throughout Central Oregon and in every county in Oregon. See eventbrite.com/o/living-well-central-oregon-268425920?s=7709373 for community LWCC offerings.

Everyone Gets a Raise!

WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / June 30, 2016 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

Thanks to the passage of Senate Bill 1532, minimum wage workers in Deschutes County will get a raise on July 1, when Oregon’s minimum wage increases from the current $9.25 hourly rate to $9.50. Minimum wage workers in Portland will see an increase of 50-cents an hour. The new “wage law” lays out the schedule of gradual increases over the next six years, until it reaches $12.50 in more rural areas, $13.50 in Deschutes County, and $14.75 in metropolitan areas. Gov. Kate Brown signed Senate Bill 1532 on March 2 of this year, making Oregon the first state in the nation to enact a statewide, tiered minimum wage. Before signing the bill, she said, “I started this conversation last fall. The cost of essentials such as food, childcare, and rent are rising so fast that wages can’t keep up. Many Oregonians working full time can’t make ends meet, and that’s not right.” The bill was opposed by several business groups, including the Salem Chamber of Commerce, National Federation of Independent Business, the Oregon Restaurant and Lodging Association, and Oregon Farm Bureau.

Jeff Merkley joined their Democratic colleagues for the 24+ hour sit-in on the floor of the U.S. House of Representatives. But Central Oregon’s representative, Greg Walden, was nowhere to be found. After numerous phone messages, emails and follow-up calls to Walden’s Bend, Medford, and Washington, D.C., offices inquiring after Walden’s whereabouts during the sit-in, a staff member finally confirmed that he did not attend. As of press time, Walden’s communications director had not responded to requests for a statement explaining his absence.

Deer Carnage on the Streets of Bend Between January and October of last year, 150 deer met their maker on the streets of Bend, due to collisions with vehicles. That’s 15 deer fatalities per month, and no matter which party is at fault, the deer almost always loses. Oregon Department of Transportation offers seven tips for avoiding/surviving deer collisions: 1.When you see one deer, watch for more. 2. Slow down and stay alert, especially at dusk and after dark, when deer are most active, and most difficult to see. 3. Wear your seat belt.

Where’s Walden? Of Oregon’s seven federally elected Congressional members, all but one supported the universal background checks and the “no-fly-no-buy” rules aimed at keeping guns out of the hands of suspected terrorists. Following a 14-hour filibuster and failed vote in the Senate, Senators Ron Wyden and

4. Look for reflections, which signal deer crossing signs and deer eyes. 5. Stay the course. If you see a deer in the road, brake firmly and calmly, and stay in your lane. 6. Honk! Seriously – lay on the horn. 7. If all else fails, call 911 to report a collision with significant vehicle damage. SW

A Ski Village at Mt. Bachelor What Are the Chances? By Christian Trejbal

Other big ski resorts around the continent offer such amenities and convenience. From the big ones like Whistler in British Columbia to smaller ones like Snowshoe in West Virginia, where the peak (4,848 feet) is lower than the base at Mt. Bachelor, a village is part of the ski experience. Imagine being able to ski in and out of a cabin or lodge on the mountain. Imagine not having to drive back and forth from Bend or Sunriver every day. Imagine securing the Californians and other outof-towners safely on the mountain where they won’t clog up our roads and get confused by our roundabouts. It’s a pleasant dream, but it’s not going to happen, at least not any time soon. Still, the idea was whispered on the cold winds this past season as traffic was often brutal between Bend and the mountain. On a good day, say a weekday without clear weather, one could make the drive in a breezy 20 minutes up Century Drive. Weekends, holidays and days with fresh snow and ice were another matter. Frustration mounts quickly as precious winter daylight slips away in the morning, or hot body humidity stinks

up the car after a day on the slopes. “When there was snow and ice on the road, it could take an hour each way. Accidents backed up the road,” Mary Holzman, a snowboard instructor at Bachelor, said. “Travelers weren’t prepared. There’d be people trying to put chains on in the middle of the road.” Holzman mostly relied on the Cascades East Transit (CET) bus to get to work. In order to ensure she arrived in time for her 9:45 a.m. check-in, she caught the 7:45 shuttle. The 8:20 just couldn’t reliably get her there on time. And she wasn’t alone catching the early shuttle. From November to April, the Mt. Bachelor shuttle carried 46,064 riders. There’d usually be three early buses leaving the park and ride, and they were often standing-room-only. Mt. Bachelor Resort’s operator Powdr Corp. doesn’t share exact figures about the number of customers, but the 201516 season was its biggest since 200506, when more than half a million people visited. Average attendance for the top-20 days a decade ago was 7,462, so figure more this past season. “I worked some record-breaking days up there and had students from all over the country,” Holzman said. Todd McGee, owner of the Powder

House on SW Century Drive in Bend, pegs the busy season on better weather and folks being on better financial footing. “This was a unique year. We had two weak winters back-to-back. Then all of a sudden we had a great winter and the economy turned around at the same time,” he said. Judy Watts, CET’s outreach and engagement administrator, heard that parking at the mountain became an issue a few times during the season. “They were running out of parking,” she said. Watts suggested that to ease congestion and parking, all concerned should work harder to encourage carpooling. Mt. Bachelor Resort President and General Manager John McLeod rejected the idea that parking ever became a serious problem. “I don’t believe we ever over-filled the parking lot this year, but we came close on a few occasions,” he said. Overflowing parking lots or not, the possibility of removing a few hundred cars from the road during busy days has some appeal.

A village on the mountain Before a village with lodging could happen at Mt. Bachelor, several people and organizations would need to get on board, starting with the resort itself. Right now, it has no interest in a huge expansion. Indeed, its promotional literature touts the fact that it is rustic, not all fancy like those other ski resorts. According to the literature, “Mt. Bachelor is a true destination despite the fact that—uniquely among America’s major ski areas—it has no slopeside, lodging, no fancy base villages, no condo developments or any other sign of the highpriced foofaraw so common at major ski areas nowadays. We don’t have it, we probably never will, and we’re actually pretty darned proud of that – because we’ve got something much better.” Marketing collateral tours the feeling of “wilderness and solitude” that doesn’t exist at other resorts. When they are done for the day, Bend and Sunriver are just “down the road a short piece.” Holzman, the snowboard instructor, said the wilderness feeling and the fact that Mt. Bachelor is less commercial than some other places is part of what she loves about it. Justin Yax, a spokesperson for Mt. Bachelor, stays on message. “The addition of lodging or a base village like at Squaw Valley or Whistler would detract from ...Continues on page 11

nyone who skis or snowboards at Mt. Bachelor Resort sooner or later asks an existential question: Why isn’t there a lodge or village at the mountain?

the unique experience of skiers and snowboarders at Mt. Bachelor,” he said. “Right now, Mt. Bachelor is very comfortable with and supportive of the lodging community in Central Oregon. We want to make those relationships as successful as possible.”

Suppose, however, that Mt. Bachelor

In addition, tourists coming to Central Oregon would not likely be content to stay in just the village on the mountain. They would want to check out the craft beer scene in Bend, the restaurants and everything else that draws people to the region.

“Our mission is to provide the recreational opportunity while maintaining the health of national forest lands.” - Jean Nelson-Dean

did want to build a village with lodging, dining and shopping. That would only be the start. The big sell would be at the U.S. Forest Service. Mt. Bachelor is located entirely within the Deschutes National Forest. The resort has a special use permit to use the land, and any changes require federal approval.

Forest Service satisfied with current resort Jean Nelson-Dean, a public affairs officer for the Deschutes National Forest, said a major expansion is not in the cards. “We want to keep development as low as possible up there while still providing recreational opportunities,” she said. “Our mission is to provide the recreational opportunity while maintaining the health of national forest lands.” That’s not to say all development is out of the question. The Forest Service and Mt. Bachelor a couple of years ago agreed to a 10-year master development plan. It includes a new lift, new tubing area, more parking and other infrastructure. It does not include overnight lodging. The plan went through environmental and public review before approval. The new eastside Cloudchaser lift is the resort’s first priority. No specific timeline for the other elements of the plan are yet in place. At Sunriver Resort, where a quarter of the winter guests ski or snowboard at Mt. Bachelor, the idea of a village barely registers. “Our stance is that they’re not going to allow it, so it hasn’t really entered our mindset,” Senior Marketing Manager Molly Johnson said.

Even if a village at Mt. Bachelor wouldn’t solve traffic problems, that’s not the only reason to consider it.

Powder House’s McGee says he’s heard conversations about building a village at Bachelor a few times before. It always comes to nothing, and he’s fine with that. Even so, he does see some upside to the idea. Rather than a drain on local hotel rooms and restaurants, he suggested it could bring in new customers to boost business for everyone. “We lose a lot of club skiers because we don’t have ski-in and ski-out,” he said. “I think in the long run (a village) would benefit Bachelor and the community.” Many club skiers would stay on the mountain, but many would stay, dine and shop in town, too, he said. David Blair, a former staffer for Sen. Ron Wyden who was on the slopes at Bachelor 15 to 20 times this past season, believes the Forest Service might not be so big a hurdle for the feds. “If the community goes along with it, it happens. If the community opposes it, it doesn’t happen,” Blair said. “The Forest Service and elected officials would go along with whatever the community wants.” He took no position on whether a village is a good idea, but he suggested that it’s a conversation worth having once every few decades just to make sure Mt. Bachelor and Central Oregon are doing what’s in the best interest of long-term prosperity. “Mt. Bachelor is so important to the community in so many ways,” he said. “We should be interested in its economic vitality because it affects our region’s economic vitality.” SW

11 VOLUME 20 ISSUE 26 / June 30, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

Mt. Bachelor promotes local lodging options on its website from the “On the Cheap” Entrada Lodge to the “If you want to make your friend envious” Oxford Hotel, Tetherow Lodges, and Pronghorn Club and Resort.

Nelson-Dean pointed out that if Mt. Bachelor were to build a village, it would not likely solve traffic problems. Hundreds, maybe even a thousand, people sleeping at the mountain would need food and other goods. Truck deliveries would add considerably to traffic on Century Drive.

Kicked It in the Sun Built to Spill avoids the time trap By Jared Rasic 15

VOLUME 20 ISSUE 26 / June 30, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

f you’re looking for impartiality, you won’t find it in this article, because Built to Spill is one of my favorite bands of all time. I’m biased. I was 20 the first time I heard “Perfect From Now On,” the band’s 1997 album. It helped me through many dark days, exposed me to what a truly flawless album sounded like, and made me a fan of Doug Martsch and Built to Spill for life. Lead singer, primary songwriter and guitarist Doug Martsch formed Built to Spill in 1992 with Brett Netson and Ralf Youtz. Martsch initially viewed the band as having an ever-shifting lineup with only himself as the constant, but after a few rough tours and members that just didn’t gel, he solidified the core group. In 2013, he brought in Steve Gere on drums and Jason Albertini on bass and recorded 2015’s “Untethered Moon,” their strongest outing since 1999’s “Keep it Like a Secret.” Recently, I interviewed Martsch about opening for Foo Fighters and the pointlessness of looking back. Source Weekly: You’ve come through Bend, played at the Les Schwab Amphitheater and opened for bands like Deathcab. Do you enjoy being support for those big outdoor shows, or do you like the more intimate venues where you know everybody is there for you? Doug Martsch: I like them both. When I was younger we were on our second or third tour. We went to Europe supporting the Foo Fighters. They had just come out and just become a band. I didn’t think they were going to be very popular or anything and it turned out they were really popular and it was kind of a horrible experience. Built to Spill at that time was kind of a weird lineup. SW: How so? DM: We weren’t very good or well rehearsed. We were all just young, inexperienced musicians. We just weren’t a very

good band and the Foo Fighters weren’t having it. It was kind of a horrible tour. It had its moments but a lot of it was just a drag. And so I swore I didn’t want to do that anymore. I only wanted to play for people that came out to see us play. SW: Which you did for a long time. DM: For the most part, we did that for 15 years or something. Then after years of playing and touring a bunch and getting a better band together, I was super proud of what we were doing so I jumped at the opportunity to open for someone. We went on tour with Kings of Leon. We’re playing for thousands of people and they’re just milling around. They don’t give a shit. I mean, they’re still having a blast because the band is good. But you

know there are only a handful of people in the audience that are getting it. SW: Do you think you would be able to be as creative in your songwriting if you were constrained more in your time limit? DM: I don’t know. Maybe if I had to do it I would just work more and spend less time f*%$ing around. SW: Do you look back on your discography and have a record that you love the most or, because so much work went into them, do you love each one equally? DM: I don’t find myself looking back at it at all, you know what I mean? I don’t have a favorite one. I really, seriously try

to look forward still at this point. Maybe the next one will be the last one and I’ll start thinking about the past or something. I still feel like we have some stuff to do, improvements to make, and I feel like our best record is yet to come. To my mind. That doesn’t mean anything to anyone else. There’s no way a band can surpass the record that they made when you were a teenager when you got it, you know? Even if they made a record that was much better. It has more to do with the listener than with the record, in my mind. SW Built to Spill Sunday, July 3, 7pm Domino Room, 51 NW Greenwood Ave., Bend $20

hat happens when three of the most incredibly talented women in songwriting combine goals and dreams to create an album together? A self-titled album called “Case/Lang/ Veirs. ” It all started with an email sent years ago from k.d. lang to Neko Case and Laura Veirs, suggesting that the three make an album together. The successful, soulful result of that initial email message can be witnessed at the Bend Athletic Club on Wednesday, July 5 as part of the Peak Summer Nights summer music series. The collaborative album opens with “Atomic Number,” setting a gentle tone for the rest of the record. All three vocalists bring their best to create a soft, yet powerful melody as each voice compliments the other. “Behind the Armory” may be number seven on the record, but it is number one in my heart. If ever I have danced with my one true love in a daydream, this song was playing in the background. The album’s final song, “Georgia Stars,” will empower anyone lucky enough to be within earshot. We recommend playing this album as a soundtrack to any road trip, whether physical, emotional, or metaphorical. The collaborators are stars in their own rights, and the combination adds up to more than the sum of its parts. Neko Case, who left home at 15, has received much acclaim for her indie-style

music. She played drums for a few punk bands and attended college in Vancouver, British Columbia, before moving to Seattle in 1998, during a thriving year for alternative music. k.d. lang has been in the business of singing and songwriting since the mid-80s. Born in Alberta, Canada she attributes much of her influence to Patsy Cline and even formed a tribute band after college. She eventually branched out, though not far beyond country music. The genre not only spoke to her, but she had mastered it so completely that in 2013, she was inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame. Growing up, Laura Veirs preferred punk to folk music and Americana. But after visiting China, she decided to focus on folk and country. Together, these three female musicians weave a brave, feminist fabric into an increasingly vibrant tapestry of cutting-edge country-western music, chaotic punk, and comfortable Americana.

CULTURE Give Me Freedom, Or Give Me Bikes!

ART WATCH By Annette Benedetti

Annual Freedom Ride’s growth presents challenges

yan James was working at the Starbucks downtown when he saw his first Freedom Ride.

“Leading up to the event, there was a lot of buzz,” he said. “I remember during the morning, we had a line out the door, and then we were completely dead for two hours during the Freedom Ride.” James and his wife moved to Bend two years ago, and he said Freedom Ride was one of the first things they heard about. Stepping outside that July 4, 2014, James remembers seeing a sea of red, white and blue bicyclers flooding the streets. “It just kept on going. I remember seeing the same people again and again. They were just doing the loop multiple times,” he said. “It was such a big thing, so I was bummed I couldn’t do it my first year here. It’s just one of those Bend things you want to experience at least once.”

Bendites. Every 4th of July since 2001, cyclists have amassed at Pioneer Park for an afternoon ride through downtown that ends in Columbia Park. The ride is notorious for being unofficial; no group organizes or endorses the event, it just happens. Freedom Ride is one of Bend’s largest celebrations, drawing locals and out-of-towners of all ages. Surprisingly, Bend Police Sgt. Dan Ritchie is also a fan of the Freedom Ride, or at least the idea of it. “One of the best things about this country is the freedoms we have, and the idea of the Freedom Ride is to celebrate those freedoms,” he said. “It’s really interesting because people dress in creative ways, and it’s just neat to see that kind of stuff.”

Freedom, with a dash of traffic The Freedom Ride is both famous and infamous among

Of course, the Freedom Ride’s unofficial status creates problems. The ride is notorious for bringing downtown traffic to a standstill. According to Sgt. Ritchie, a permit would help alleviate that. Police officers would be able to set up roadblocks and routes for both pedestrian and emergency vehicles. But Seth Gehman, a Bendite who has attended every Freedom Ride since 2011, thinks the traffic is part of the event’s charm. “Yeah, it ruins a few motorists’ day, but not one of those drivers ever forgets that 4th of July stuck in traffic in downtown Bend surrounded by partying cyclists,” he said. As a trail builder at Mt. Bachelor Bike Park and a bicycle guide for Cog Wild Bike Tours, Gehman loves the Freedom Ride. “In all the places across the country that I’ve celebrated the 4th of July, the Freedom Ride is by far my favorite celebration,” he said. “The crowds are huge, and I really like that critical mass feel of it.” ...Continues on page 37

Bend Burlesque & Hot Summer Nights Summer nights in Bend are about to get hot. On July 1, Bend Burlesque Company will celebrate summer with a new show that will have audience members fanning themselves for relief. Aptly named “These Coming Summer Nights,” the production promises to titillate, thrill, and delight with 11 entertainers, multiple acts, and live music by local band Company Grand. Mehama Kaupp and Leah Rutz, co-owners of the only Bend-based burlesque troupe, met by chance through friends three years ago while boating at Lake Billy Chinook. Kaupp says, “We started talking about burlesque and made a fast decision to be business partners and best friends.” A year later they put on their first show, which featured just the two of them performing burlesque. Their act was well received, and they’ve been going strong ever since. Over the past two years, Bend Burlesque Company has grown. Both Kaupp and Rutz attend performances around the country in search of inspiration and in an effort to expand their skills. Kaupp says, “We have no formal training in burlesque; we just try and come up with original, traditional, and neo-burlesque routines that are exciting, entertaining, and hilarious.” Attendees of “These Coming Summer Nights” can expect to be entertained by performers with stage names such as K. Tease, Ego Mystical, and Lil’ Leazy serving up a variety of acts that include a sexy acro-yoga performance, hula- and belly-dancing, and both “boylesque” and traditional burlesque routines. Kaupp says, “We strive to bring our audience the best time possible. Sometimes that means our audience is uncomfortable or shocked, but overall we keep it sexy, creative, witty, and risqué.” SW

Reaching critical mass Unfortunately, it’s that critical mass aspect of the Freedom Ride that causes the most problems.

“An analogy would be if you had a Volk-

When James participated in his first Freedom Ride last year, he said the number of people on the road made for “insane, wheel-to-wheel” biking. “The entire street is just absolutely littered with bikers,” he said. “You’re not going most of the time, you’re just waiting for an opening.” And among these thousands of riders, according to Sgt. Ritchie, are sub-groups that break away from the main group and do the most harm.

consumption, public intoxication, and people jumping off the bridge in Columbia Park. Even pro-Freedom Riders admit to seeing inappropriate behavior: Gehman said he has witnessed sexual harassment, and James was surprised to see “a lot of teenagers drinking and smoking” at the event.

Respecting tradition In past years, events like The Anti-Freedom Ride Freedom Ride and the Independence Ride have offered downsized options for those overwhelmed by

“The cool thing about it is the whole unorganized, unsanctioned element. It makes it different from every other event in Bend. It’s intense, but it’s tradition.” swagen and you’re trying to pull a trailer of elephants; that vehicle’s not going to do it,” Sgt. Ritchie said. “It really taps at our resources.” In prior years, Bend’s Parks and Rec Department has dealt with reservation conflicts and large-scale cleanups from the crowds that occupy the parks during

“There are people who participate in that event for the full-intended purpose, and then there are people who take advantage of that event,” he said. “Some people think that ‘freedom’ means lawlessness, and that’s the group that we deal with.” Sgt. Ritchie said the most common complaints include open alcohol and drug

And James thinks maintaining the ride’s unofficial status is important. “If someone organized it, that would mean selling tickets, and there’s no way anyone would buy tickets to it,” he said. “The cool thing about it is the whole unorganized, unsanctioned element. It makes it different from every other event in Bend. It’s intense, but it’s tradition.” It’s unlikely the Freedom Ride will become official or dwindle anytime soon, so Sgt. Ritchie said the most important thing people can do is be mindful and respectful. “I think if everybody went into it with the attitude to respect each other and have a great time, that this would be a great event,” he said. “Enjoy yourself and have a good time, but (do) simple things: don’t block the roads, keep the right-of-ways open, no alcohol, no marijuana consumption in public. Think about others and be respectful.”

-Ryan James

Gehman echoed those sentiments, adding the importance of the ride’s core purpose.

the Freedom Ride’s attendance, but Sgt. Ritchie thinks the event’s size will always be an issue.

“If you participate as a group of friends and stay together, I think it’s a fun, safe celebration of freedom in a country that seems to be taking our freedoms away as fast as they can,” he said. “I say let the public play and have their day.” SW

“My thing is if someone did step up and (organize) the event, what would deter people from saying, ‘Well, we’re not going to be part of that,’” he said.

The Freedom Ride will start some time in the afternoon on Monday, July 4.

While traffic can be expected from any large event, the Freedom Ride is equivalent to four or five large events. Sgt. Ritchie admitted that the ride only showed up on the police department’s radar a few years ago when the attendance grew into the thousands.

Mrs. Mejaski’s Majestic Majesty Gotta Dance moves to new owners By Jared Rasic 39

Michelle Mejaski, left, dances into her own future. Photo by Cascade View Photography.

otta Dance Studio and Company has been part of the Central Oregon landscape for 15 years, and Michelle Mejaski has been the face and driving force behind it since the inception. Hundreds of men, women and children have learned jazz, tap, hip-hop, and contemporary dance from the Gotta Dance team over the years. Recently Mejaski sold Gotta Dance in order to focus mostly on choreography for live musical theater, a growing demand as more musicals are mounted each year in Central Oregon. Mejaski chatted with us recently about her history with dance, the future of Gotta Dance, and the rewards of teaching. Source Weekly: Tell me a little about your history with dance. Michelle Mejaski: I started dancing when I was four years old. The two studios I studied in until I was 18 were Dixon Dance and On Your Toes in Indianapolis, where my husband and I are from. I went to smaller, non-competition studios, and at age 14, my tap and jazz instructor said she couldn’t challenge me any more as a dancer and asked me if I’d like to train as a teacher and choreographer. SW: So you went right into instruction? MM: I instructed teen and adult tap classes the next dance year. I loved teaching and choreographing; I knew it was what I wanted to do. I majored at Ball State University in graphic arts, and was fortunate to be accepted to their dance program which allowed me to train in dance without it being my major. I got involved in the dance community

as an instructor and choreographer in Bend as soon as my husband and I moved here in 1997. SW: And you instantly knew you wanted to open a studio? MM: I began at Bend’s Summerfest in 2001 with dear friends Carolyn and Thomas Tsuneta. Carolyn and I danced on a piece of plywood as Thomas played bass. Next to us was a sandwich board offering dance lessons by Gotta Dance. One move, three dance floors, and 15 years later, here I am. SW: What do you find is the most rewarding aspect of teaching? MM: The rewards that I get from teaching are beyond words. It’s students making up their own nicknames for me, the hugs and the I love you’s and the inside jokes. And it’s things that reduce me to tears like parents telling me that the child used to not talk to other kids, or they used to stutter, or that they never have seen them more confident in themselves. SW: What inspired you to make the sale? MM: I decided to sell the studio because I am too busy with everything. It is too much for me to run the office, the books, the phone calls, emails, the costuming... everything about the studio while at the same time trying to teach to the best of my ability and inspire and mentor dancers while choreographing a musical. I knew I had to pick and choose what I wanted to do. And what I want to do is teach and choreograph.

SW: Who did you sell the studio to? MM: I sold the studio to friends, Sean and Brandi Nichols. Brandi has been a member of the Gotta Dance staff teaching lyrical, jazz, and tap for the past five years. SW: Will Gotta Dance stay mostly unchanged aside from your (obviously massive) absence? MM: The atmosphere, feel and the love of Gotta Dance will not be changing. Brandi is going to run the studio with care and support. I would only sell Gotta Dance to someone who I trusted with that. The current staff, including myself, will all be instructing next year. The changes that will be made are more cosmetic ones. The walls will be painted, new floors will be installed, and Brandi will give the studio her own artistic vision. SW: How often are you hoping to choreograph per year? MM: Ideally I would like to choreograph back-to-back productions. The rehearsal to stage time typically is three months, so I would love to be doing four musicals a year. Having a month break or two here and there wouldn’t be bad. But I like to keep busy, and I don’t even know what I would be doing with myself if I weren’t choreographing! SW

Market of Choice brings new options in grocery shopping

LITTLE BITES By Angela Moore

By Angela Moore

Eat, Drink, and Brew-It-Yourself at Immersion Brewing You probably already know you can brew your own beer at Immersion Brewing. But did you know you can drink here, and eat dinner here, whether or not you opt to reserve a two-hour session where you can learn to make your own batch of beer? Immersion Brewing is a pub-style family kitchen with a full bar, daily lunch and dinner specials, an outside patio, and made-from-scratch dishes such as poke marinated ahi, short ribs with edamame avocado succotash, and a Duroc pork porterhouse served with spent beer grain spaetzle and Brussels sprouts. Bon appetit!

Immersion Brewing It's smiles all the way around as Alison Nobis shops, left, and bakery manager Heather Marshall works at Bend's newest grocery story. Photos courtesy of Market of Choice.

t 5:30pm on opening day, the parking lot at Market of Choice on Colorado Avenue was overflowing. I parked a block away and made my way inside the 42,000-square-foot shopping Mecca, along with everyone else in Bend, it seemed. Market of Choice boasts more than 10 different departments, ranging from fresh produce, seafood and meat to beer, wine and cheeses to floral, bakery and whole health sections. The meats are local, organic, and natural, and the seafood is caught in the Northwest. They also carry conventional grocery items, keeping prices reasonable. Besides the typical grocery store fare, Market of Choice offers a take-away section serving up juices, barista drinks, beers, wines, cheeses and a variety of hot bar items including house-made pizza, burgers and burritos. In other words, no one ever needs to shop hungry again. Alyssa Ross is a fan of the hot food bar. “I like it because it’s a good place to pick up dinner after work,” she said, admitting that she expects to treat Market of Choice as more of a restaurant than a grocery store. Other shoppers—such as myself—are

enamored with Market of Choice’s bulk section. It feels like an old-timey candy shop, or perhaps a feed store. Along with the typical flours, grains, granolas, dried fruits, and snacks, this section features an impressive array of spices, cooking oils and nut butters. According to bulk section clerk Rebecca Perper, “People are in love with this department. Our most common reaction is how wide of a variety of unique spices we have on hand.” Alison Nobis came straight from yoga class to cruise the aisles. “I really like the idea of having another option where I can get natural produce and specialized goods,” she said. “I heard that this was opening day, and when I walked in the door the produce section was right there. I like that a lot.” Aside from admiring the fresh produce, Nobis made a point to praise the Eugene-based, family-owned company. “I didn’t know much about Market of Choice, but then I did a bit of research and found out some of what they do.” The first store opened in Cottage Grove in 1979, and soon grew to 10 locations in Oregon, with Eugene being its base. The Oregon mentality of keeping things local

rings true to the Wright family, who not only own all the MOCs, but run them as well. Sixty-five percent of the vendors come from Oregon, with roughly 3,000 farmers, ranchers and food producers among the mix. Aside from buying locally wherever possible, MOC donates thousands of pounds of food that are close to expiration or goods that would have otherwise been thrown away, such as bakery items that didn’t sell. They also give generously to a handful of Oregon-based arts organizations, food banks, and children’s charities. By opening a store in Bend, MOC created roughly 130 local jobs, most of which are full-time and come with above-average wages. During my visit to the wine and beer section, I overheard a wine specialist, Meredith Austin, decline a tip from a shopper. When I asked why, she replied. “My pay is not reliant on tips. Market of Choice takes care of me so that I can fully take care of you.” SW Market of Choice 115 NW Sisemore St., Bend Open daily, 7am-11pm marketofchoice.com

Broken Top Bottle Shop Brings On a New Chef Husband and wife team Jason and Jennifer Powell opened Broken Top Bottle Shop (BTBS) in February of 2012 and it has been a favorite of Bendites ever since. Recently, they hired Chef Ingrid Rohrer, whose cooking style is described by Jennifer as “…high-end comfort food with ethnic influences.” The updated menu will feature some new dishes without neglecting tradition—such as the always popular house-smoked ribs and smoked cod sandwiches. “If someone hasn’t been to the Bottle Shop in a while, I think they will be pleasantly surprised by what we are doing now,” says Jennifer.

Beer Bouquets for Discerning Drinkers Fat Tire and 10 Barrel release “collabrewtive” 12-packs

Collaborative craft beer variety packs simplify summer drinking decisions. Photo from 10 Barrel Brewing.

ocal beer fans looking for extra variety are being spoiled for choice this summer. The 2016 version of Sierra Nevada’s Beer Camp Across America 12-pack has been out for a little while now, offering everything from a light table beer to an imperial brown ale in the same package—and in a few days, two more breweries will release similar packages in Central Oregon. First on the market is the Fat Tire & Friends Collabeeration Pack, released to celebrate the 25th birthday of Colorado’s New Belgium Brewing. It’s a 12-pack case offering two bottles each of six different beers: the plain old Fat Tire amber ale that turned New Belgium into the regional behemoth it is now, and five variations whose recipes were devised with five partner breweries, including Hopworks in Portland. Some of the Fat Tire & Friends beers have already popped up on tap walls around bend, including the Fat Pale Ale made in collaboration with Rhinegeist Brewing in Cincinnati, Ohio. The subtle ale, made with Belgian yeast and a fair amount of fruity hops, is good for all the outdoor drinking to come during Bend’s busiest season. For a more experimental experience, try the Fat Wild Ale from Avery Brewing, made with Brettanomy-

ces yeast, and Hopworks’ own Fat Sour Apple Ale, a tart and fruity take on the original that would have been hard to picture on store shelves back when Fat Tire debuted in 1991. Not to be upstaged, 10 Barrel is now shipping Battle of the Beers, a 12pack featuring brews from each of the brewery’s three pubs. The idea is that the brewmasters at each pub are at war with each other, and drinkers use social-media hashtags to vote for their favorite out of the box in order to crown a brewing champion. Hashtag users have a chance to win a free party at the pub of their choice. Bend is represented by Cerveza Negra, a dark lager that has been available in the local taproom for awhile now. Although challenging to brew, it is the lightest of the bunch, offering crisp, malty refreshment. The Portland pub offers Dat Sesh Doh, a session IPA that is equally approachable at 5.2 percent alcohol. If this sounds a little wimpy, fret not: Shawn Kelso from the Boise 10 Barrel contributed Category 57, a 10.4 percent monster of an IPA featuring Galaxy and Calypso hops.

Aliens vs. Teenagers No matter who wins, we lose By Jared Rasic 45 VOLUME 20 ISSUE 26 / June 30, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

They're baaaaack. The aliens return with tons of combustible schlock and unintentional laughs.

hen “Independence Day” was released in 1996, there was something refreshing about a movie that chose to blow up most of the world before saving it. The heroics of Will Smith and Jeff Goldblum mattered little because millions of people were already dead. While there were plenty of disaster flicks before “ID4,” the novelty of watching The White House, Mount Rushmore, The Washington Monument and other famous landmarks explode was pretty entertaining. “Independence Day: Resurgence” had a different field to plow. America has been bombarded with global destruction movies since the original. Hell, director Roland Emmerich himself has released “The Day After Tomorrow,” 1998’s “Godzilla,” “2012” and “White House Down” since 1996, safely making him the modern day Irwin Allen. America is over-saturated

with big-budget disaster movies, and – since 9/11 – Americans have shown less affection for watching famous landmarks explode. Clearly, “Resurgence” will require some new tricks to stand out from the pack. The film does stand out from every single other disaster movie, but mostly because it is Grade Z, full-blown schlock. The sheer volume of unintentional laughter, dead-eyed embarrassing performances, and wooden dialogue make this an absolute blast to watch. When a character from the original died during a building collapsed, I erupted in laughter in a silent theater, eliciting more than a few nasty stares. The plot is simple: THE ALIENS ARE BACK! Randy Quaid, Goldblum and The Fresh Prince didn’t stop them after all. Luckily, humanity has a ton of alien

weapons left over that they became really good at using. So the movie is basically “Halo,” but less interactive. Things blow up constantly, but there isn’t a moment that doesn’t feel like a video game since there are no models, stunts, or miniatures in this... just pixels in a computer.

but the film puts too much of its running time into setting up a “grander” mythology explaining why the aliens are after Earth. Sadly, despite the fact that the third part of the trilogy promises to be quite fun, no one will trust the “Independence Day” franchise after this one.

A huge part of this movie is setting up the children of most of the characters from the original to be the new heroes. Unfortunately, they’re not interesting. Little Hemsworth comes across as the best new character, but that’s only because he knows how to calibrate his performance to allow for schlock. William Fichtner, Jeff Goldblum, Vivica A. Fox and Bill Pullman are all lost here, waiting for the checks to clear before leaving their trailer.

If you take pleasure from laughing at terrible movies, this film is for you. Sure, there are a few fun moments, but all around, “Resurgence” is a genuinely terrible movie. I can’t in good conscience recommend it. A drunken 3am Redbox fling might be forgivable, but you’ll hate yourself in the morning. SW

“Resurgence” also plays as the middle chapter in a trilogy. There will be an ending to the story of this specific invasion,

A Small Act

This powerful documentary focuses on the failed governmental policies put in place to help veterans with war trauma and PTSD. Ticket proceeds go toward the “Save A Warrior” program, which specializes in active duty military veterans and first responders suffering from psychological trauma. This is an important issue and a very good cause.

Part of the Green Team Movie Night Film Series, “A Small Act” tells the story of a Swedish citizen sponsoring a Kenyan student. At a time when xenophobia is running rampant through the world, a film about simple kindness to different cultures is sorely needed. There are probably many lessons to take from this film.

Lively Up Yourself

“The Shallows” swims in deep waters By Jared Rasic 47 VOLUME 20 ISSUE 26 / June 30, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

Blake Lively fights a shark for our viewing pleasure in “The Shallows.”

aying that “The Shallows” is the best shark movie since “Jaws” isn’t saying much. Mainly because there aren’t that many good shark movies, but also because it’s not. It is definitely better than the “Sharknado” movies, but “Deep Blue Sea,” “Open Water,” and maybe even the goofy-as-all-hell “Shark Night” are more fun. “The Shallows” follows Blake Lively, who has arrived at a secluded beach that her recently deceased mother found while pregnant with her. Lively has left med school and is traveling the world, hoping to find a bit of closure with her grief. After video chatting with her father and little sister, Lively hops on her surfboard to ride some of the most pristine waves ever captured on film. Once she is about a hundred yards off shore, she finds a dead whale with some very deep bites taken out of it. With barely enough time to think, the shark that killed the whale bites her and she takes refuge atop the rotting carcass. The rest of the film focuses on Lively MacGyver-ing her way to safety and doing battle with a very nasty giant shark. Every moment of the film that focuses on Lively using her brains to stay alive is classic. The tension and the pacing— combined with the gorgeous cinematography and dread-inducing score—make “The Shallows” a memorable cinematic experience. What keeps the film from entering the realm of the great Woman Vs. Nature films is the character development. Normally in a movie like this, any sort of backstory or emotional through-line is discarded for more intensity and gore,

but there’s plenty of clichéd family drama here. The idea of a young woman finding the beach her mother surfed while she was in her belly is fantastic, but too much of the finale rides on the audience caring about her relationship with her sister and father. Lively is phenomenal in the role and carries this movie effortlessly. We genuinely care about her surviving the ordeal, so we don’t need pointless emotional manipulation tying her to characters we have no investment in. Lively is enough. Her eyes, her physicality, her presence... all of it is powerful enough to invest us. The director should have trusted his leading lady more here. Aside from some plot issues, there are a few dodgy CGI moments with the shark that ring false, as well as one moment where Lively’s face is superimposed over a surfer to make it look like she was doing her own stunts. The flaws are fairly minor, but they remove the viewer from the building intensity. This might sound like a harsh review, but the film is actually quite good. It’s so well made and acted that the bad moments stand out that much more. “The Shallows” is, for the most part, an edge-of-your-seat thrill ride that will make you fear beautiful places, especially if you aren’t sure what might be lurking beneath the surface.

FILM SHORTS By Jared Rasic

THE ANGRY BIRDS MOVIE: There have been many video game movies in the past, but never one pulled from something with so little of a story. This follows three angry birds as they investigate the arrival of pigs to their little island. Advanced reviews are pretty dire, but the voice cast has ringers including Jason Sudeikis, Bill Hader, Maya Rudolph, Danny McBride and Peter Dinklage, so there might be enough here to be entertaining. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE: A buddy comedy/action flick starring The Rock and Kevin Hart seems like something that should have existed years ago. Kevin Hart plays a regular Joe who gets sucked into an old high school friend’s current spy lifestyle. Even in the very worst of movies, The Rock is always worth watching. Combining his oversized charisma with Kevin Hart’s unhinged energy should hopefully make for a comedy classic. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX FINDING DORY: Pixar waited 13 years to release a sequel to one if its most beloved films, so we can only hope it will reach the original’s greatness. With “Cars 2,” Pixar proved it wasn’t infallible when it came to their sequels, but after last year’s masterpiece “Inside Out,” it seems like they’re on a bit of a creative hot streak. Let’s hope it will be more than just “cute” and reach the emotional highs of “Inside Out,” “Toy Story 3” and “Up.” Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX FREE STATE OF JONES: Matthew McConaughey has had a career resurgence that rivals that of John Travolta in “Pulp Fiction.” The difference being that McConaughey is always fun to watch, even in garbage. “Free State of Jones” has good intentions and could have been an excellent movie under an auteur’s hands, but director Gary Ross spent too long making “Hunger Games” movies to have the proper eye for the subject matter. McConaughey plays Newt Knight, a Southern farmer who rebelled against the Confederacy by becoming a leader of guerrilla soldiers. Tread lightly on this one. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

INDEPENDENCE DAY: RESURGENCE: The thing that made the original “Independence Day” so much fun was watching Will Smith and Jeff Goldblum—who have completely opposing chemistry—bounce off of each other flawlessly while big landmarks exploded beautifully. Goldblum returns for the new film, but Smith’s character died between movies, so he’s replaced with Liam Hemsworth. A bunch of stuff still blows up. Two problems: 1) Hemsworth is no Will Smith, and 2) We’ve seen a lot of things blow up beautifully in the intervening years since the original film. This sequel will need to offer something novel to jaded moviegoers if it doesn’t want to be ignored. See full review, p 45. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

ME BEFORE YOU: Apparently they’re offering tissues at the box office for this one, but that might be an urban legend. A young woman starts taking care of a paralyzed, handsome young man whose recent accident has left him depressed and angry. Their relationship blossoms and probably ends terribly because don’t they all? An excellent cast

should hopefully elevate this to something above its maudlin premise. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

NOW YOU SEE ME 2: The original “Now You See Me” piled on twist after twist until the story didn’t make sense anymore. Now we see The Four Horsemen take their magic tricks globally to expose unlawful practices of a tech magnate. These movies exist in an alternative universe where magicians can save the world, so expect some goofy, plot-driven fun. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

THE CONJURING 2: Surprisingly scary and expertly crafted, “The Conjuring 2” almost equals the original in excellence. This one follows Demonologists Ed and Lorraine Warren to Enfield, England, where they square off against an angry poltergeist that may be more than it seems. Fans of the first one should love this just as much. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

THE MEDDLER: Susan Sarandon plays a lonely, aging widow who follows her daughter to Los Angeles in the hopes of reigniting her life. She first meddles in her daughter’s life, only to find that there are many other people who need her help as well. This is a heartfelt dramedy that actually plays much better than it sounds. Tin Pan Theater THE SHALLOWS: This is being hailed as the best shark movie since “Jaws,” and since that is one of the few perfect movies ever made, that’s saying something. “The Shallows” sees Blake Lively as a surfer stuck on a rock in shallow water as a shark circles, waiting for the tide to come in. The trailers are gorgeous, the plot is tight and focused, and Lively is genuinely a talented actor, so full-blown excitement for this one seems like a good call. Wade into this one; the water’s fine. See full review, p 47. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

WARCRAFT: Somehow better AND worse than it looks, “Warcraft” is a confusing mess of a film that is also tons of fun. The action and fantasy elements are fantastic, but as soon as real people start talking to each other about things, everything falls apart. This might be solely aimed at fans of the game series, leaving the rest of us behind. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX WEINER: A funny and fascinating documentary about the personal and professional collapse of U.S. Representative Anthony Weiner during his 2013 NYC Mayoral bid. You might remember his highly publicized sexting scandal. Most critics are calling this the “Mustsee documentary of the year,” which is high praise in a year with such a powerful slate of non-fiction films being released. Come for the history; stay for the schadenfreude. Tin Pan Theater

X-MEN: APOCALYPSE: Although it does feel like we just had an X-Men movie, "Apocalypse" boasts several fan favorite characters returning to the franchise and a possible end to the arc of the last two films. With Jennifer Lawrence possibly leaving the franchise after this one, expect an epic and exciting adventure with everyone's favorite blue mutant. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX SW

or Dave Nissen, founder of Wanderlust Tours, coming up with new ideas is a group effort.

“We at Wanderlust often find ourselves hanging out, sipping on suds at the end of the day, and brainstorming what would knock people’s socks off,” he said. After 23 years in business, Nissen and his team of guides and naturalists may have hit on the one-two, sock-knocking combo. Next week, Wanderlust is launching its Summer Nights Dinner Canoe Tour, an evening outing that combines fine dining and lake exploration.

Eating on the beach “This thing came about simply by putting ourselves in the shoes of our guests and saying, ‘What could we do that would inspire with the natural world, and create something that people probably aren’t going to do on their own?’” he said. As an answer to that question, Wanderlust started Dinner Canoe Tours a few years ago. Guests enjoy a chef-prepared meal along the lakeshore, then step into canoes and paddle into the night. Instead of a simple campfire cookout, chefs from Any Occasion Catering and Deschutes Brewery cook the meal on site, and serve it alongside local beer and wine. (Guests are limited to two drinks, since they will be canoeing afterward.) Guests sit riverside under the trees at linen-covered tables set with fancy flatware, and situated to serve up an expansive view of the Cascade Mountains. “For being out in the forest, having someone prepare a spectacular meal for you and eating on linen is pretty darn sweet,” he said.

From the table to the water, dinner is only the beginning “If the body is satiated with a magnificent meal, then the soul becomes satiated with the spectacular unfurling of Mother Nature’s daily activity,” said Nissen.

To capture Mother Nature at her finest, the tours head to either Elk Lake or Paulina Lake, chosen for their natural wonders and suitable shorelines. Nissen explained, “Being able to have dinner on the beach next to the lake, there aren’t too many bodies of water that allow that to happen.” He continued, “The forest comes alive at night in a way that’s different from the daytime. The bats start flitting around; owls fly overhead; sometimes, deer bathe in the lake; sometimes we’ll watch otters cavort in the water; fish are jumping after flies. It’s just spectacular stuff.” Groups paddle for an hour-and-a-half before returning to shore for freshly baked desserts and, if the weather permits, a campfire.

A one-of-a-kind tour The tour usually takes groups of 14, and while it is recommended for ages 8 and up, Nissen said the Dinner Canoe Tour is an all-ages experience. “We typically have lots of families. One family might book out the whole trip,” he said. “(Then) you might have six or seven couples making up one group. It varies, but it’s totally family-friendly when the occasion calls for it.” Guides also provide crash courses on how to paddle and maneuver canoes, since “most folks haven’t paddled a boat since they were in Boy Scouts or Girl Scouts,” Nissen joked. Tours start at $125 per person, including food, drinks, canoes, gear, and transportation to and from the lakes. Guests depart from the Wanderlust Offices (by the Fred Meyers on 3rd Street) at 6pm and return by 11pm. The first Dinner Canoe Tour of the year is scheduled for Sunday, July 3, with future tours scheduled for July 9 and 30, and Aug. 13 and 27. To reserve your paddle, visit wanderlusttours.com or call 541-389-8359. SW

Join these disc-flinging fiends for a disc golf tutorial course at Pine Nursery Disc Golf Course. Participants will learn helpful techniques and tricks, then put their skills to the test with a complimentary putter disc and a round of 9-hole. Become the Tiger Woods of disc golf!

Tour des Chutes The Tour des Chutes is a fundraising event that supports cancer care and survivorship for Central Oregon residents of all ages. Founded in 2004, this popular event allows participants to bike anywhere between seven and 100 miles across the high desert. For those who want to stay on their feet, there is also a 5K run/walk through NW Crossing. And sideline supporters can simply donate money and/ or time, with all proceeds directly benefiting regional nonprofits dedicated to providing care and support to those affected by cancer. Expect food, drinks and music. This is a great, all-ages event for a good cause. The official Tour starts at 6am on Saturday, July 9, with starting lines for both the bike and run/walk at High Lakes Elementary School. Online registration closes at 11:59pm, Thursday, July 7.

The Sweet Sounds of Spring By Jim Anderson

M.S. ACSM Certified Personal Trainer ACE Certified Medical Exercise Specialist ACSM/ACS Cancer Exercise Trainer NASM Corrective Exercise Specialist

All winter long, both male and female tree frogs have been buried in a damp spot beneath the sandy soil, hibernating. The singing is designed to lure females to the pond to see what the ruckus is about. In spite of the cold nights — even when ice forms on the surface of the pond — males will clamp onto a female, fertilizing her eggs as they are laid. Unfortunately, those eggs are often consumed by our native, rough-skinned newts, other amphibians, and worst of all - the non-native bullfrog. One of those guys or gals in the vicinity of a frog pond is the worst news possible; they not only eat the eggs, but the tadpoles and adult frogs as well. Speaking of cold nights, Pacific tree frogs are uniquely suited to survive freezing temperatures. In their winter stupor, a frog’s heartbeat is almost non-existent, and there’s no need to breathe as they absorb oxygen and water from the soil in which they’re buried. While the brain is slowed down, the frog is kept alive and capable of functioning by a special chemical—much like anti-freeze—that keeps the water in their bodies a frozen mush instead of solid ice. In fact, 80 percent of their body can freeze to slush during hibernation, and they can still thaw and hop away in the spring, moving quickly into mating mode —even when the nighttime temperature drops to the lower 20s. In fact, a small population of Pacific tree frogs that was introduced intentionally in a pond on Revillagigedo Island near Ketchikan, Alaska, seem to be doing well, in spite of the sub-zero winters in that neck of the woods. And I once found a tree frog alive in a frozen cow footprint, about six inches deep in the mud at Benjamin Lakes, out on the Sagebrush Desert. These remarkable tree frogs make several different calls, under different conditions. In addition to the musical “crek-eek” we’re hearing these nights, they also have a dry-land call, which

sounds more like “creee-ee-ee-eeek.” When the serenading stops, we’ll know that mating season is over. Back in the '50s, scientists called them Hyla regillia, but around 1986 some frog taxonomists put their heads together and decided because of this-or-that scientific detail, they’d change the genus name to Pseudacris (pronounced “suedah-kris”). But a band of herpetologists, including Ernesto Recuero, begged to differ, splitting the whole tree frog tribe into three distinct species. I suppose the fact these little guys range all the way from Southern Alaska south to British Columbia in Canada, south to Washington and Oregon, and all the way to Baja, Calif., had something to do with it. However, Amphibian Species of the World hasn’t accepted the name changes officially, so here’s the way it is as of today: Pseudacris regilla for the northern region (our area) Pseudacris sierra for the central region Pseudacris hypochondriaca in the southern region (Baja, Calif.) As an adult, the Pacific tree frog grows to two inches from snout to urostyle (the bony rod forming the last segment of the vertebral column of frogs, toads, and related amphibians). Males are usually smaller than females and have a dark patch on their throats—a vocal sack—which is inflated when the male is calling. Tree frogs can be a number of

different colors, including green, tan, reddish, gray, brown, cream, and black, but most ours are a shade of green or tan, with pale or white bellies. The frogs have a variety of dark and spotty markings on their backs and sides and can be identified by a dark brown eye stripe that stretches from the nose, across the eye, and back to the shoulder. I’ve heard reports of rare blue ones, but being color-blind, I can’t tell. Please shoot voucher photos if you find any with bizarre colors, and send them to me at jimnaturalist@gmail.com. Pacific tree frogs change color seasonally to better camouflage themselves, and on the end of each toe is a round, sticky toe pad, or disk, used for climbing, sticking to surfaces, and as a lure. A tree frog will eat anything smaller than itself, often remaining motionless as potential prey moves its way. It can then wiggle its little toe like a lure, which works perfectly on beetles, baby mice, and crickets. As a member of the aquatic and terrestrial life zones, the tree frog has been recognized as a “keystone species,” in that it plays a vital role—like the keystone block in an architectural arch— holding the structure of its ecological community together. Please think of that the next time you hear—or see— those non-native, pestiferous bullfrogs anywhere near tree frog territory. And remember: bullfrog legs are delicious cooked in butter. SW

Three Ways to Get Help With a Down Payment Ask the seller to pay closing costs. It is not uncommon to ask and receive up to 6 percent of the sales price for closing costs. The amounts you can request vary depending on what type of loan is involved and the bank. FHA allows up to 6 percent of sales price and some Fannie Mae loans have caps from 3 percent to 9 percent of sales price. The advantage is that lower closing costs mean you have more money for your down payment. Research various federal and local government-sponsored loan programs such as VA loans, HUD programs, and Neighbor Impact. VA loans allow you to purchase a home with practically no down payment or private mortgage insurance. HUD has

some good programs such as the Good Neighbor Next Door Program and others. The HUD webpage has links to their various home ownership programs. The thing to watch out for in low down payment programs is that they are not accompanied by high personal mortgage insurance requirements.

A common way is to ask your wedding guests to provide a monetary contribution to your house via the website in lieu of other wedding presents.

ADVICE GODDESS The Gift Of Blab

—Mr. Uncomfortable Being compatible with somebody doesn’t mean you’re like them in all ways. I’m an extrovert, which is to say I see a dead car battery as an opportunity to learn about some tow truck driver’s childhood in Guatemala. Contrast that with my introvert boyfriend, who recently turned down an invitation he got to this really cool event, telling me, “I already said hello to somebody this week.” Beyond individual human differences, there are some male-female differences, like in feelings- and information-sharing. Sex differences researcher Joyce Benenson explains that men evolved to be the physical defenders of the species, and it would have put a man at a deadly disadvantage to show the enemy his emotions—like if he went all scaredypants from fear: “Oh my God, is that the enemy? I’m gonna throw up.”

Last Year’s Shaggage I’m a woman who’s had a casual hookup thing with a guy for almost two years. I want a serious relationship, and I really like him and would like it to be with him. When we’re together, we have a great time, but he can go a week or two without contacting me. Last week, he showed up late to my birthday, with no present and not even a card. I know I should cut him off, but the sex is great, and there’s nobody else on the horizon. Any chance he’ll finally realize I’m a catch and come around?

3 MONTH

SPRING SPECIAL $199 Seniors/Students $120

—Hoping The guy didn’t even give you a birthday card. Even the car wash gives you a birthday card. Any guy with an IQ exceeding the highway speed limit gets that birthdays are a big deal to most women. And if you care about birthdays and a guy cares about you, he’ll step up—at the very least by running into a drugstore, grabbing a card, and checking that the pre-printed heartfelt message inside isn’t “To my very special grandson! On his very special day!”

Women, on the other hand, evolved to build support networks and avoid social exclusion by convincing other women that they aren’t a threat. A woman does this not by hiding her vulnerabilities but by putting her problems and weaknesses on parade—a la “My ladyparts have been declared an EPA cleanup zone!”

In a hookup situation, it actually isn’t crazy to hope for an upgrade from sexfriend to girlfriend. In a survey by Kinsey Institute researcher Justin Garcia, 51 percent of the people who had hookups went into them hoping to kick-start a romantic relationship. In another survey, 9.8 percent of hookups led to committed relationships. However, there’s a progression that takes place in going from lust to emotional attachment. It has a hormonal profile and a general timetable, and, well, two years into a sex thing, the attachment train is probably well out of the station.

In other words, your privacy nightmare— the scrapbooking circle getting together to focus-group your medical issues—is your girlfriend’s emotional comfort zone. But this isn’t necessarily a sign that your relationship is toast. For a relationship to make it, you and your partner don’t have to be the same; you just have to have enough in common and be loving in dealing with each other’s differing weirdass needs.

In other words, it’s time to take this relationship to the next level—“the end.” On a positive note, it’s possible that removing yourself from this guy’s life will make him realize that he loves you and needs you in it—leading him to start showing boyfriend-type attentiveness. Either way, you’re setting yourself up to have a man you can count on to be there for you—and not just naked and at the ready whenever his Wi-Fi goes down.

If there were such a thing as psychological catnip for humans, it would probably be feeling understood. So, tell your girlfriend that you understand it helps her to hash things out with her mom and the ladypeeps and that you think that’s great. You’re just wired differently. Explain how, and then—sweetly—make your request: You’d feel most comfortable if what happens between you stays between you… given that your idea of openness involves making people sign a 30-page nondisclo-

My girlfriend tells her mother and her friends pretty much everything. Literally four of her friends and her mom were weighing in on her recent urinary tract infection. I just don’t get why she feels the need to let everybody know her business, and it’s the opposite of what I do. I’m very private, and I’d like us to have some things that stay between us—especially stuff that goes on in the bedroom. How would I set boundaries like this? And does this mean that we are ultimately incompatible?

ASTROLOGY

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): In accordance with the astrological omens, I have selected three aphorisms by poet James Richardson to guide you. Aphorism #1: “The worst helplessness is forgetting there is help.” My commentary: You have the power to avoid that fate. Start by identifying the sources of healing and assistance that are available to you. Aphorism #2: “You do not have to be a fire to keep one burning.” My commentary: Generate all the heat and light you can, yes, but don’t torch yourself. Aphorism #3: “Patience is not very different from courage. It just takes longer.” My commentary: But it may not take a whole lot longer. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You may not know this, but I am the founder and CEO of Proud To Be Humble, an acclaimed organization devoted to minimizing vanity. It is my sworn duty to protest any ego that exceeds the acceptable limits as defined by the Geneva Convention on Narcissism. However, I now find myself conflicted. Because of the lyrical beauty and bighearted charisma that are currently emanating from your ego, I am unable, in good conscience, to ask you to tone yourself down. In fact, I hereby grant you a license to expand your self-love to unprecedented proportions. You may also feel free to unleash a series of lovely brags.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): The next 28 days will not be a favorable period to sit around passively wishing to be noticed. Nor will it be a good time to wait to be rescued or to trust in others to instigate desirable actions. On the other hand, it will be an excellent phase to be an initiator: to decide what needs to be done, to state your intentions concisely, and to carry out your master plan with alacrity and efficiency. To help ensure your success during the next 28 days, make this declaration each morning before breakfast: “I don’t want to OBSERVE the show. I want to BE the show.”

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): “In life, as in bicycling, pedal when you have to, coast when you can.” So says author James Lough, and now I’m passing on his advice to you—just in time for your transition from the heavy-pedaling season to the coasting-is-fun phase. I suspect that at this juncture in your life story you may be a bit addicted to the heavy pedaling. You could be so accustomed to the intensity that you’re inclined to be suspicious of an opportunity to enjoy ease and grace. Don’t be like that. Accept the gift with innocent gratitude. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): “When a jet flies low overhead, every glass in the cupboard sings,” writes aphorist James Richardson. “Feelings are like that: choral, not single; mixed, never pure.” That’s always true, but it will be intensely true for you in the coming weeks. I hope you can find a way to tolerate, even thrive on, the flood of ambiguous complexity. I hope you won’t chicken out and try to pretend that your feelings are one-dimensional and easily understandable. In my opinion, you are ripe to receive rich lessons in the beauty and power of mysterious emotions.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Pop artist Andy Warhol said that in the future, everyone would be famous for 15 minutes. His idea had a resonance with the phrase “nine days’ wonder,” which as far back as Elizabethan times referred to a person or event that captured the public’s fascination for a while. You Capricorns are entering a phase when you’re far more likely than usual to bask in the spotlight. Between now and September 2017, I bet you’ll garner at least a

short burst of glory, acclaim, or stardom—perhaps much more. Are you ready for your closeup? Have you prepped for the influx of attention that may be coming your way?

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): One of my readers, Jay O’Dell, told me this story: “After my cancer surgery, a nurse said to me, ‘You may as well try magical thinking. Regular thinking hasn’t helped.’ I said to the nurse, ‘Well, why the hell not?’ That was seven years ago.” In bringing O’Dell’s testimony to your attention, I don’t mean to suggest you will have any health problems that warrant a strong dose of magical thinking. Not at all. But you may get wrapped up in a psychological twist or a spiritual riddle that would benefit from magical thinking. And what exactly is magical thinking? Here’s one definition: The stories that unfold in your imagination have important effects on what actually happens to you.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Let’s talk about X-factors and wild cards and strange attractors. By their very nature, they are unpredictable and ephemeral, even when they offer benevolent breakthroughs. So you may not even notice their arrival if you’re entranced by your expectations and stuck in your habitual ways. But here’s the good news, Pisces: Right now you are not unduly entranced by your expectations or stuck in your habits. Odds are high that you will spy the sweet twists of fate—the X-factors and wild cards and strange attractors—as they float into view. You will pounce on them and put them to work while they’re still fresh. And then they will help you hike your ratings or get the funding you need or animate the kind of love that heals.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): During winter, some bears spend months hibernating. Their body temperatures and heart rates drop. They breathe drowsily. Their movements are minimal. Many hummingbirds engage in a similar slowdown—but they do it every single night. By day they are among the most manic creatures on earth, flapping their wings and gathering sustenance with heroic zeal. When the sun slips below the horizon, they rest with equal intensity. In my estimation, Aries, you don’t need a full-on immersion in idleness like the bears. But you’d benefit from a shorter stint, akin to the hummingbird’s period of dormancy. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): “Dear Dr. Brezsny: A psychic predicted that sometime this year I will fall in love with a convenience store clerk who’s secretly a down-on-his-luck prince of a small African country. She said that he and I have a unique destiny. Together we will break the world’s record for dancing without getting bitten in a pit of cobras while drunk on absinthe on our honeymoon. But there’s a problem. I didn’t have time to ask the psychic how I’ll meet my soulmate, and I can’t afford to pay $250 for another reading. Can you help? — Mopey Taurus.” Dear Mopey: The psychic lied. Neither she nor anyone else can see what the future will bring you. Why? Because what happens will be largely determined by your own actions. I suggest you celebrate this fact. It’s the perfect time to do so: July is Feed Your Willpower Month.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Of all the concert pianos in the world, 80 percent of them are made by Steinway. A former president of the company once remarked that in each piano, “243 taut strings exert a pull of 40,000 pounds on an iron frame.” He said it was “proof that out of great tension may come great harmony.” That will be a potential talent of yours in the coming weeks, Gemini. Like a Steinway piano, you will have the power to turn tension into beauty. But will you actually accomplish this noble goal, or will your efforts be less melodious? It all depends on how much poised self-discipline you summon.

Weren’t you the exile who wandered aimlessly while fantasizing about the perfect sanctuary of the past or the sweet safety zone of the future? Didn’t you perversely nurture the ache that arose from your sense of not feeling at home in the world? I hope that by now you have renounced all of those kinky inclinations. If you haven’t, now would be an excellent time to do so. How might you reinvest the mojo that will be liberated by the demise of those bad habits?

ne of the strangest situations created by cannabis legalization in Oregon and elsewhere in the US is the effect, or lack thereof, of legalization on state employment law. Oregonians can get a doctor’s prescription for cannabis to treat a variety of illnesses in the state’s medical marijuana program, and Oregonians 21 and older can now consume cannabis in private. But state law also allows Oregonians to be fired from their jobs for using cannabis, even if it is being used to treat a life-threatening illness. This legal paradox has cost untold numbers of Oregonians their jobs. One of those Oregonians is Michael Hirsch, a 60-year old prostate cancer survivor. He said he legally used cannabis on the recommendation of a doctor to treat the side effects of his cancer treatment, but he never used cannabis at work, and never came to work impaired. Last November, Hirsh says he missed his bus, and he was late for a training seminar at his job with Lane County as a programmer and systems analyst. Two county employees said they smelled cannabis on Hirsh’s jacket, and the county subsequently tested him for

cannabis. Hirsch tested positive, and the county fired him two days before Christmas. The firing was devastating for Hirsh. He had already spent his entire savings on his lengthy cancer treatment, and he said the news coverage of his firing made it impossible to find another job. But much to Hirsh’s surprise, on June 23 an arbitrator reinstated him to his job and ordered the county to pay him $21,550 in back pay for his wrongful termination. Fortunately for Hirsh, he had the protection of a union contract that prohibited the county from taking disciplinary against an employee if the employee’s actions take place outside of work and do not affect the employee’s job performance. The arbitrator also noted that the county has given only warnings or suspensions to employees for off-duty alcohol use even in cases that had resulted in criminal convictions. Firing an employee for off-duty medical marijuana use, even if in violation of the county policy, would be “far and away too harsh a punishment” for a first offense, the arbitrator said.
