The Race for Bend mayor is going to the dogs! (and cats, and other friendly pets…) Does your pet have what it takes to run Bend?
Take part in the Source Weekly’s Pet Mayor’s Race! One cat is already running for mayor in the November election, so we thought, why not encourage more pets to put their paws in the ring?
Here’s what you have to do: Take a photo of your pet, ideally in some type of festive or patriotic gear. Post the photo on your own social media channel (Instagram, Facebook or Twitter) and tag us @sourceweekly. Include the pet’s name and a few lines about why your pet should be named Pet Mayor of Bend. (Do her herding instincts make her a natural born leader? Is he fiscally conservative and always cleans his plate?) A winner will be chosen, and included in the upcoming Dog Days of Summer edition of the Source. There’s also a sweet prize!

OPINION
Support a Bike Park on the East Side
I
n a town as bike-crazy as Bend, it stands to reason it would have a facility allowing people to hold world-class bike events. That’s exactly what we’ll get should Bend Park and Recreation District move forward with its plans to expand the facilities at Big Sky Park on Bend’s east side. But like many elements of growth in our community, what might seem like a no-brainer to support has had its share of opposition. The expanded Big Sky Park would include pump tracks, cyclocross and single-track trails, a bike trails area, a kid’s skill area and a dual slalom course— all which could allow the many riders in the area to access options, some of which are only available on Bend’s far west side. An option to include amplified sound at the current BMX track is still on the table. Additional field lighting has been discussed and may be added in the future, according to BPRD. The park’s master plan includes plenty of new parking and a plan to build a common access and exit to Hamby Road and Buckingham Elementary School. Some neighbors have expressed concern about increased traffic in the area, considering the fact that currently, the Phil’s trail network serves as one of the only skills areas for bikers to access close to Bend. With the option to ride trails and skills features on the east side, we would argue that the traffic Bend’s bike facilities bring would be spread more equitably throughout the city. Bend is growing east, and it only stands to reason that the new infrastructure and new park options should favor the side of town experiencing the most growth. Hamby Road might have been squarely rural in the past, but it is, inevitably, going to serve as an increasingly important corridor as the city expands. BPRD has allocated funds for the expansion of Big Sky Park and will likely ask the bike community—which enthusiastically
supports the expansion—to kick in the additional funds needed to complete the bike park, which we anticipate will get done handily. Add in the economic opportunities that can come from positive, community-building and internationally recognized bike events, and supporting a bike park at Big Sky Park is even more of a win-win. Deschutes County had a meeting scheduled for July 17 to hear public comments on the plan and to consider approving BPRD’s permit request. Here’s hoping the park gets the support it deserves.
Let Sanctuary Law Stand
L
ast week, dozens of people gathered in front of the Deschutes County Courthouse, in opposition to IP 22, a proposal aimed at repealing Oregon’s “sanctuary law,” established in 1987, during the Reagan administration. Three Republican members of the Oregon House filed the proposal, which would repeal the 1987 law forbidding state agencies, including law enforcement, from using state resources or people to detect or apprehend people suspected of being in violation of federal immigration law. Voters will decide on this issue during the November election. Among the people gathered against IP 22 was Deschutes County District Attorney John Hummel, who said that the current law already provides clear guidance to local law enforcement about how to handle complex immigration issues. One of those tenets allows local police to hold undocumented immigrants and to turn them over to immigration officials, if the feds get a warrant. In this fraught social and political climate, we see no reason to change course with this policy. To do so would be to fall prey to a rising tide of xenophobia and racism in our community, state and nation. What’s more, our local law enforcement officials should not be empowered to act as federal immigration agents. They already have enough to do.

The Bend Second Annual Naked Bike Ride began while the sun was still well up, a nice improvement from the Bend First Annual Naked Bike Ride. But why did only ten people express their disdain of the overuse of fossil fuels? Why did only ten Benders show up to BE TOTALLY FREE? There is nothing like riding bicycles with a group of naked and semi-naked people through Bend on a warm summer Saturday evening! Skinny dipping is similar but not as exhilarating because it lacks the endorphin boost which exercise gives. Riders were glowing with inner peace and nonjudgmental acceptance of others as their good karma radiated from their physical bodies. But next year can Grateful Dead, Widespread Panic, and classic rock be played on the excellent sound system with the thumping bass that a woman towed behind her, instead of modern pop rap? (I did like the ragtime tuba music though!) The Portland metropolitan area has 2.5 million people, and I was told that 12,500 bikers attended this year’s Portland Naked Bike Ride—a per capita percentage of half a percent! In Bend we had ten out of a population of 90,000, a per capita percentage of one nine-hundredth of a percent. Bend needs four hundred and forty more riders than we had this year to equal Portland’s enthusiasm for TRUE FREEDOM. Shuck off your chains of Establishment uptightness, shed your false skin, and join the Bend 3rd Annual Naked Bike Ride next summer! Maximum FUN guaranteed!

charge. But no one, least of all Doctor Boddie, can deny that he chose to attack Newbold by publicly sharing information (whether true or not is irrelevant) about a medical condition, the disease of addiction. Doctor Boddie knows this. His attack on Newbold is akin to attacking her because she has cancer. That is the largest breach of trust of all. I believe this was done to not only undermine Newbold’s credibility but also to send a message to any other women out there who may have similar complaints about his behavior. It is what a bully does. His credibility is shot, as a politician and as a doctor. A little humility and soul-searching is in order. But, from what we have seen so far, that is unlikely.

Curated shopping mall welcomes new local businesses Photos and Words By Keely Damara
I
f you’ve spent any time near the Mill Quarter over the past several months, you’ve probably noticed the construction happening at The Box Factory. The 100-yearold former box and crate factory has been rejuvenated with a plethora of local businesses, each hand-selected by Portland-based real estate developer Killian Pacific. For those who haven’t stopped by The Box Factory in the past few months, three new locations have opened up on the north-facing side of the building; Foxtail Bakeshop, Fix & Repeat and the River Pig Saloon. Six additional units are under construction, totaling 8,400 square feet of repurposed space that will rent for an average of $2 per square foot, per month. The tenants slated for the units are Valentine’s Deli, Alcheme (a pole fitness gym), Westside Barbershop (relocating from NW Crossing), Modern Boardshop (current tenant, moving), Riff Cold Brew and Danner Boots. The space that Modern Boardshop will vacate will be absorbed into AVID Cider and used for a pizza kitchen.
Jeremy McPherson of Killian Pacific says there are two more units that will begin construction within the next two months. Bledsoe Family Wines—owned by (former NFL quarterback) Drew and Maura Bledsoe—will begin construction of a 2,200-square-foot unit next month, and a new ramen concept by Chris and Jeremy Cox of Bos Taurus is scheduled to begin construction of a 1,000-square foot unit in September. SW
Paul Evers
Riff Cold Brewed Coffee, co-owned by Crux Fermentation Proj-
ect co-founder Paul Evers, is set to open by the end of August. A concept restaurant that revolves completely around cold brew, Evers says Riff will include a full food menu inspired by coffee as well as a pilot brewing system for making small-batch cold brew concoctions for coffee-enthusiasts to enjoy. The 3,500-square-foot space is located next to a pedestrian breezeway connecting the north and south-facing tenants, across from the River Pig Saloon with future-tenant Valentine’s Deli in the 1,100-square-foot suite to the east.
The River Pig Saloon
SIDE NOTES
, which held its grand opening over Memorial Day weekend, is the new venture of Ramzy Hattar, who also opened the River Pig Saloon in Portland. Those who have been to the Portland location will recognize the same look and feel of the décor—but the space is far from cookie cutter. Hattar painstakingly collected many of the notable pieces lining the walls—including the enormous stuffed bison that resides behind the bar (stored in his family dining room during construction) and the vintage piano, a Craigslist find, used to frame one of the big screen televisions.

reg Amanti, the local artist who painted the new mural on the My Lucky House building on Third Street, between Norton and Lafayette Avenues, said he landed on Greek pottery for inspiration after looking for iconic images that would read at a glance. Amanti said the mural took two full weekends and a couple of weekday nights to complete with the help of Douglass Robertson—the High Desert Mural founder— along with Jason Lovejoy and Heather Crank. According to Amanti’s biography, he’s a master mold maker, stone carver and critically acclaimed artist and artisan. Amanti has worked and trained at the two largest foundries on both coasts, and assisted some well-known contemporary artists, including Kiki Smith, the German-born artist whose 1990s work focused on AIDS and gender. Amanti has art featured in the Fort Collins Museum of Contemporary Art, The Miami Photo Salon, The Workhouse and The Redline Art Center. He was also awarded the Photographers Forum Award of Excellence. SW Gregory Amanti gregoryamanti.com

The Cascadia subduction earthquake isn’t expected to hit Bend hard—but seismic retrofits and planning are still recommended By Chris Miller
F
riday the 13th is supposed to be spooky, so maybe it was fate that on that day, the Oregon Office of Emergency Management held two training sessions for homeowners, builders and other professionals to learn about seismic retrofitting for detached, single-family, wood-framed dwellings—better known as houses—in case the Big One hits. But let’s back up. This isn’t Lincoln City, or even Portland. The presenters weren’t telling people to prepare to live for months without water or power. There weren’t any horror stories, no comparisons to the 1906 quake in San Francisco that nearly burned the city to ashes. This was a class taught by BJ Cure, owner of Beaverton’s Cascadia Risk Solutions, a company that identifies
“When the cripple wall fails, it’s typically a total economic loss. So much utility damage is done, it’s cheaper to tear it down.”
—BJ CURE
and minimizes earthquake risk by explaining to people how they can seismically retrofit their homes, and what the greatest vulnerabilities are. Cure said a lack of anchors, weak cripple walls, split-entry homes, and post and pier foundations are the most common types of problems when talking about seismic retrofitting. In Bend, many houses in Old Bend and the Orchard District were built without anchors and weak cripple walls. What this means in non-builder speak: A concrete foundation is poured along the house’s footprint. The framing is then placed atop, but not bolted to the concrete. The space under the house’s floor is left open— commonly called a crawl space—where you can access plumbing or other utilities. Cripple walls are short wood stud walls that enclose the crawlspace under the first floor of the home. A weak cripple wall is one that doesn’t have plywood attached to it, which reinforces the wall. During the presentation, Cure showed photographs
of houses that had cripple wall failure. They were often slumped over, as if that part of the house was made of warm butter. “When the cripple wall fails, it’s typically a total economic loss,” Cure said. “So much utility damage is done, it’s cheaper to tear it down.” But there’s hope. Cure said you can hire a contractor or home inspector to go through the Federal Emergency Management Agency’s P-50 assessment form. I own a 1974 ranch near Pilot Butte and have enough construction knowledge that with Cure’s help, I did the assessment myself. The assessment works by deducting points based on faults in your home in the foundation, superstructure framing and configuration, general condition, nonstructural elements, age and size, local site conditions like the slope your home is on and the regional seismic hazard score. My home scored a B on the A to D scale, which means it’s a good performer, but seismic retrofits are encouraged. The biggest problems were the lack of anchored framing and the weak cripple wall. Both cost the house about 20 points. The house’s regional seismic hazard score was 39 percent. By contrast, homes in Pacific City, for example, are above 80 percent. FEMA recommends homes that score a D on the scale have significant seismic retrofitting done before people reoccupy the home. Why all the fuss? Well, we live near the Cascadia Subduction Zone, a 600-mile “megathrust” fault that runs from Northern Vancouver Island to Cape Mendocino, Calif., about 70 to 100 miles off the coastline, according to the Pacific Northwest Seismic Network. There are also faults that run through and near Bend. Though many of them are about 750,000 years old, they’re still there. Great Subduction Zone earthquakes are the only ones in the world that can produce quakes greater than 8.5 magnitude, according to PNWSN. The last known megathrust earthquake was in January 1700, according to OOEM. The pressure building up where the Juan de Fuca Plate is subsiding underneath the North American Plate has scientists predicting there is a 40 percent chance a 9.0-plus magnitude quake will occur in the next 50 years. To get your home seismically inspected, Cure said you can call a contractor or a home inspector, and they can fill out the P-50 form. With the contractor crunch in Bend, you may have an easier time reaching a home inspector, which most realtors have on speed dial. SW

THE WAR WAGES ON
Oregon will have 11 dedicated opioid treatment centers by 2019. Where—as a city, state and as a nation—are we in this raging opioid epidemic? By Magdalena Bokowa
T
he United States is being crippled by a growing—yes, growing—opioid crisis. There was a staggering 21 percent surge in drug overdoses in 2016, the last time the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention released official figures on record, with 64,070 deaths attributed to drug overdoses in the U.S. Of those, 75 percent were from opioids. Whether legally prescribed for pain, bought on the street as heroin or increasingly, shipped from China as synthetic Fentanyl, opioids are seemingly America’s drug of choice. Illegal drug use comes and goes in waves—marijuana starting in the ‘60s, LSD in the ‘70s, cocaine in the ‘80s and methamphetamine in the ‘90s. Opioids have been the newest staple of this still-young millennium. Yet statewide, opioid addiction seems to be experiencing a decline. “We have been proud to see the CDC report in March that Oregon saw the steepest decline in prescription opioid-related deaths between 2015 and 2016,” says Saerom Williams from the Oregon Health Authority, the go-to expert in Oregon’s handling of the crisis. “We experienced a decline of 17 percent. This is when many states are still experiencing increases,” she says. The state where deaths have been highest: West Virginia, followed by Ohio, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania and Kentucky, according to the CDC. “No area of the United States is exempt from this epidemic,” wrote CDC Principal Deputy Director Anne Schuchat in a March 2018 report. Statistically, those most commonly
overdosing are males between the ages of 25 and 44, according to a 2016 CDC report analyzing data from 31 states, including Oregon. Troubling was that the overdose rate from synthetic opioids more than doubled, likely driven by cheap and easy access to Fentanyl from China. Opioid prescription-related deaths increased by 10.6 percent while heroin-related overdoses increased by 19.5 percent. Williams boasts of the various strategies Oregon is employing. “The Oregon Health Authority has been leading the state Opioid Initiative for several years now,” she says, “focusing our work on four major strategies: better and safer pain management, improving addiction treatment and naloxone access, reducing the number of pills in circulation through prescribing guidelines and other supports for prescribers, and realtime data (where possible) to track our progress and challenges.” Local stats Dr. Kimberly Swanson, behavioral health director at Mosaic Medical in Bend and chair of the Pain Standards Task Force, seems to agree that doctors are getting the message. “There has been a 59 percent decrease in opioid prescribing,” says Swanson, who says the reduction was quantified from Deschutes County statistics from early 2014 to late 2017. Swanson says the reduction can be partially accredited to the Oregon Health Policy and Research’s Health Evidence Review Commission Low Back Pain Guidelines, released in 2016, giving
doctors advice on how to manage pain without opiates. According to the CDC, an estimated 100 million Americans live with chronic pain. Since the 1990s, go-to treatments have included opiate drugs such as oxycodone, oxycontin or hydrocodone. Between 1999 to 2014, the rate of opiate prescribing quadrupled. The CDC estimates that one out of five patients with “non-cancer pain or pain-related diagnoses are prescribed opioids,” with the biggest reasons for prescribing being pain management (49 percent), surgery (37 percent) and physical rehabilitation (36 percent). Though, primary care providers are attributed to prescribing more than half of opioids. Research into alternatives in managing chronic pain have been slow going, mostly because scientists still don’t know the complete science behind chronic pain. The common theory is that the body has multiple pathways to the brain regarding pain receptors, which in turn, means multiple pathways addressed by painkillers, according to research conducted by the American Public Health Association. So, if researchers don’t know which neural pathway is causing pain in each person, they turn to the one-stop numbing solution: opiates. When faced with treating short term pain, doctors are now trying to employ alternative strategies so that opioids are not the first go-to method. Alternative therapies such as physical therapy, talk therapy, acupuncture, massage, yoga and chiropractic care have increased.
Data in Deschutes County corroborates these stats. Swanson from Mosaic Medical states, “By Q4 of 2017 there has been a 64 percent increase in requests for all of these services combined.” Insurance is still hesitant to pay, however. Swanson notes, “Medicare does not cover many alternative pain management services,” and adds, “Central Oregon does not have a comprehensive, multidisciplinary pain treatment center.” She also notes that those who live in rural areas in Crook and Jefferson counties need to travel long distances to Deschutes County to access alternative pain management services. A round trip can span hours, a few times a week. No wonder prescribing a painkiller seems like the path of least resistance. But still, Swanson does acknowledge the aid being given to the region and says, “access to medication-assisted therapy, the gold standard treatment for opioid use disorder, has increased.” She also says, “health systems in Central Oregon are adopting several treatment strategies such as group visits and adding movement classes in primary care.” District Attorney John Hummel, who last year began his pilot program, “Goldilocks,” aimed at giving treatment rather than incarcerating those found with “user quantities” of felony-type hard drugs, says 92 people have entered the “Clean Slate” part of his program and that two are being prosecuted in the “Deter” part of the program. He’s unsure if he’ll continue the project until he gets better stats—probably in the fall of this year.

“My idea of fun became one not of training and being on the trails but one of chasing cocaine dealers around town at 2 am, trying to get high. I let everything go. And so, I ran away from Bend.” —SPENCER NUWELL PIctured above, running the Rockies in 2010
ters dedicated to opioid related disorders in Oregon by 2019. And just how many folks are taking advantage of that Bend clinic? Since May 2017, 202 patients have walked through the doors for opioid specific treatments. Where they are now though, is harder to quantify. Personalizing addiction “I reached a boiling point. I was working 80-hour work weeks peddling real estate in Bend,” says Spencer Nuwell, a Bend-based ultramarathoner now turned triathlete, who knows the trials and tribulations of addiction. He wrote the book, “Appetite for Addiction,” released this year. “I was blind drunk when I walked through those doors. My fiancee had just accused me of cheating on her. I got home, took my phone out, threw it against the wall, grabbed a bottle of
I love my doc.
Percocet (an opioid pain reliever) and sat there screaming and crying, ready to end my life.” Nuwell says if his friend hadn’t been home that day, he wouldn’t be here now. “Brian threw me in the car, I was a complete wreck and brought me to the ER of St. Charles. I got checked into Sage View [Psychiatric Center] for the next week.” This was Nuwell’s first stint at Sage View. There would be another visit a year later. “There was just this buildup of internal pain that I haven’t acknowledged for all those years and finally it accumulated to a boiling point. I couldn’t take it anymore.” Nuwell says his troubles began, like most addicts, in childhood. “I went to a ski school growing up, surrounded by wealthy kids. I was an introvert surrounded by kids I couldn’t connect with, so I used alcohol to become this gregarious, confident character.” Alcohol turned to Adderall, which turned to
cocaine, which turned to opiates. It was a vicious cycle. “I’m a speed guy. But it quickly turned into anything that would keep me going through my depression.” Nuwell learned he could visit oral surgeons, schedule wisdom teeth removal surgeries solely to get prescribed opiates before the surgery. “I never had them removed,” he laughs, “I found out how to play the system instead.” Once in Sage View, “It was like living in a cell,” he recalls of the tiny rooms with whitewashed brick walls and plastic sheets. “My cell phone was taken, I had no access to the outside world for a week.” His ego protested. “I looked around the room and there was 12 of us in there and I was definitely the most functional. I thought, ‘what the hell am I doing in here among these crazies?’ “There were people that were huge cutters, schizophrenics, those on suicide watch 24-7 a day, bipolar… One woman even accused me of raping her. I
found out she had accused pretty much everyone of doing that. So I thought I was pretty normal.” Two days later, experiencing heavy withdrawal, Nuwell realized he was at his first rock bottom. He would drive himself, hammered, a year later, back to Sage View, because he wasn’t ready to utilize the tools the psychiatrists and therapists had given him for his depression. After the second stint he was sober for six months, then drunk for another three. It would take more than three rock-bottom moments to get him sober. A three-day blackout bender nearly seven years later, in which he locked himself in his Corvallis apartment, would be the final catalyst for sobriety. “I originally moved to Bend for the aura and the mystique of it all,” Nuwell says, “For it being an absolute playground. And then eventually my idea of fun became one not of training and being on the trails but one of chasing cocaine dealers around town at 2 am, trying to get high. I let everything go. And so, I ran away from Bend.” Getting Sober Now more than four years sober, Nuwell’s counseling others on how to deal with addiction. “I once loved getting hammered by myself. And if I get lazy, if I let my guard down, I can be right back where I started,” he says. “Every day I choose to be sober.” Nuwell lost everything in the global financial crisis of 2008. He’s scheduled to be featured this week in NPR’s Marketplace’s “Divided Decade” series and is completing his first half-Ironman later this year. He says exercise has been a key component in his recovery. “Getting sober is not a linear process. It’s not an A to B thing.” Nuwell says he knows of addicts who celebrate being sober for a year with a drink. He laughs, “It’s not a finish line goal. A lot of people get caught up in it but you’re never finished with sobriety or your addiction. When an addict is unchecked, that’s when things go haywire.” SW

10 Years of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Furrâ&#x20AC;?
Portlandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Blitzen Trapper celebrates the anniversary of its breakthrough album with a deluxe edition and tour By Anne Pick
â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve played a lot of those songs over the years, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be cool to play the whole thing. It doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t feel like 10 years.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D;ERIC EARLEY, BLITZEN TRAPPER Come September, Blitzen Trapper fans will be treated to a deluxe edition of â&#x20AC;&#x153;Furr,â&#x20AC;? accompanied by 10 extra tracks from the same recording sessions. Seven of the tracks were previously unreleased, while three others appeared as Record Store Day singles over the years. For the expansion of the album for the 10-year anniversary, Earley says it was mostly a matter of digging up the old tracks from those recording sessions.

Portlandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s country/folk/rock outfit Blitzen Trapper performs at Munch and Music on 7/19.
â&#x20AC;&#x153;We did that record with Sub Pop and they had a list of songs I turned in,â&#x20AC;? Earley recalls. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We had to find all the songs that were never released, and there were quite a few.â&#x20AC;? Over the years, Blitzen Trapper has released nine albums and has cemented itself as a strong creative force not only in the Oregon music scene, but throughout the country. The bandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s last studio album, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Wild and Reckless,â&#x20AC;? can often be seen as a companion album to 2008â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Furrâ&#x20AC;? due to the themes included on both albums. The idea for â&#x20AC;&#x153;Wild and Recklessâ&#x20AC;? came from a much different place, as the album was expanded from a rock opera of the same name the band worked on with Portland Center Stage at The Armory. Initially, the accompanying album was limited to 500 vinyl pressings and 500 CDs sold only at the performances of the show, but now fans can stream it on Spotify. Presently, Earley doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have plans for the next
Blitzen Trapper album. He and the rest of the band have their focus on the next tour, which runs from September through November and includes playing â&#x20AC;&#x153;Furrâ&#x20AC;? in its entirety. Since â&#x20AC;&#x153;Furrâ&#x20AC;? introduced so many fans to Blitzen Trapper, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s exciting for band members to have a chance to hear all of the songs live. As for their show at Munch and Music this week, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got my fingers crossed to hear my personal favorites, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Feel the Chillâ&#x20AC;? and â&#x20AC;&#x153;Shine Onâ&#x20AC;? from â&#x20AC;&#x153;VII.â&#x20AC;?â&#x20AC;&#x201E; SW

or some bands, certain albums in its catalogue warrant a little more hype and celebrationâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;especially when the 10-year anniversary of its debut rolls around. Be it a debut album, a best-selling album or an album that made a cultural imprint on the music industry, those albums tend to mark a breakthrough for the band. For Portlandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Blitzen Trapper, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the breakthrough album, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Furr.â&#x20AC;? The band released the album in 2008. On Sep. 14, the band members will honor the original album with a deluxe edition release and a North American tour, during which theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll play the album in its entirety. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cool,â&#x20AC;? says Eric Earley, Blitzen Trapperâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lead singer and songwriter. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I mean, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve played a lot of those songs a lot over the years, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be cool to play the whole thing. It doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t feel like 10 years.â&#x20AC;? Earley and the rest of the members have been experimenting with rock, country and folk music since the year 2000. The band self-released its first three albums before signing to popular Seattle indie record label Sub Pop in 2008. That same year, the band released â&#x20AC;&#x153;Furrâ&#x20AC;? to critical acclaim. Rolling Stone ranked it number 13 on its list of the Best Albums of 2008.

Sarah Shook and The Disarmers create outlaw country music with relatable themes By Anne Pick

or a long time, Sarah Shook felt her songwriting was cathartic, giving her perspective and allowing her to look at her feelings and experiences from a different view. Over the last couple months, she’s realized songwriting is a whole lot bigger than her. Shook’s latest album, “Years,” takes on themes of depression, anger, exhaustion and overcoming the feelings that many struggle with at some point in time. “When I talk to people about how my songs have affected them, all of these feelings that make us feel isolated— depression, anger... especially where relationships are concerned, these are all things we have in common,” Shook reflects. “A common thread that ties us
“The sh*t that makes us feel the most alone, it’s also what makes us feel the most connected to everyone else.” —SARAH SHOOK all together. I’m still sort of processing that and working through it. The sh*t that makes us feel the most alone, it’s also what makes us feel the most connected to everyone else.” Shook grew up in a conservative, religious household, only listening to classical

or worship music. She started writing songs at age 9, also teaching herself how to play the piano so she could have music to which she could put her words. In high school, Shook taught herself to play guitar because she wanted something more portable. At the time she loved being outside and writing music. Once she heard country music for the first time, she knew she’d found her place. “When I started out I was doing a lot of acoustic, indie rock stuff because I didn’t have a band,” Shook recalls. “When I first heard country music, I had already been writing songs that would be considered country. It was sort of validating and felt like I wasn’t the only person out there creating music like this.”
Shook has a raw, honest songwriting style that echoes the feelings we all share as humans. Songs about hard drinking and hard living paired with deep regret and loss place her perfectly within the “outlaw country” genre. In the past, this style of country music felt restricted to a male voice. Shook and singers such as Nikki Lane have brought a female perspective to the genre, which only continues to grow in popularity. “I’m pretty excited about it,” Shook says of the rise of female singers and the future of outlaw country. “It seems like there’s a lot of good talent coming out, and not only coming out but getting the attention they deserve from the press. As always, it’s more of a struggle for women
versus men, but with all of the attention people like Nikki Lane and Margo Price are getting, I’m stoked about it.” Shook comes as a relatable voice in outlaw country music. Her honest words blend with traditional country twang to create music we can all relate to. Those common themes — depression, anger, exhaustion — and how we overcome and deal with those feelings truly speak to the human spirit. “The Bottle Never Lets Me Down” conveys feelings of being let down and only being able to rely on booze to be there. “Good as Gold” lets her lover know that if he leaves, he’ll be good as gold because she’s gone. Up next for Shook and her band The Disarmers: wrapping up a stateside tour and then heading to Europe in the fall. After a lot of touring, they’ll take some time off for rehearsing and pre-production for the next record. Shook loves touring and being on stage with her bandmates, but looks forward to having regular practices and getting ready to go into the studio. “There’s good energy up there,” Shook says of being on stage. “We all sort of play off of each other and give each other space to do our own thing.” SW Sarah Shook & The Disarmers Mon., July 23. 8pm Volcanic Theatre Pub 70 SW Century Dr., Bend $10
The Gift of Music
New nonprofit provides instruments to children in need By Keely Damara
A
new nonprofit in Sisters is working to connect underprivileged children with the world of music by providing them with musical instruments. The Foutz Foundation is a labor of love founded by husband and wife team Brian and Genny Foutz. Following the death of his brother Travis Foutz in May 2017, Brian Foutz created the nonprofit to honor his brother’s legacy. Before his death, Travis was training to become a music teacher at Central Oregon Community College. The Foutzs, who feel music plays an important role in children’s lives, don’t want the cost of an instrument to deter kids from joining band or orchestra. “Music is such a powerful tool,” says Brian Foutz. “We want it to be readily available to everybody.” The foundation, launched last year, provides instruments to children in kindergarten through grade 12. In the future,

Band directors are encouraged to apply on behalf of students in need of an instrument.
the Foutzs intend to give grants to kids to purchase an instrument of their choice, but this year they have a handful of donated instruments to give away. The foundation hasn’t received any applications for the 2018-19 school year yet, but the Foutzs hope that will change
after reaching out to local school districts and organizations to spread the word. “I’d really love to give at least one child an instrument this year, that’s our goal,” says Genny Foutz. “To see how happy they are to finally get something that maybe they couldn’t afford
before—that’s going to be the greatest thing ever.” Parents of K-12 students are encouraged to visit foutzfoundation.org to see what instruments are currently available and to apply. Other than being in school, the only other requirement is a reference from a band teacher. Band instructors are also encouraged to apply on behalf of students in need of an instrument.

A New Way to Stay Cool
To cut down on plastic consumption, a bid for a new piece of equipment at Central Oregon Locavore By Nicole Vulcan

Nicole Vulcan
Nicolle Timm Branch, founder of Central Oregon Locavore, shows off “Bartholomew,” the current cooler that will be replaced with a mister.
plastic helps the goods stay fresh. A mister would do the same thing, without the use of “hundreds” of plastic bags each week, estimates Timm Branch. “If we don’t put veggies in plastic bags they just wilt right away, and then the farmers aren’t happy because it’s not representing their product, and the customers aren’t happy because they’re
wilted,” Timm Branch said. She says they tried using compostable bags, but that didn’t work, as those bags are more permeable and moisture isn’t held in. Locavore is about a third of the way toward its fundraising goal of $12,000, raising about $3,500 since the effort began May 4. Once they’ve replaced the cooler, they’ll encourage people to bring
in their own mesh bags for produce— much like what customers currently do for other bulk items. Efforts to cut down on the consumption of single-use plastic are popping up around the region. Seattle’s ban on plastic straws and utensils in bars and restaurants went into effect July 1. In Bend, activists launched the “Un-Bag Bend” initiative earlier this year, with a City Council work session forthcoming to consider the issue. Timm Branch sees the effort at Locavore as one more piece of the overall effort. “I think it’s a huge piece of the conversation,” Timm Branch said. “You go to any grocery store you know there’s just rolls of plastic bags that we use once and throw away.” SW Central Oregon Locavore 1841 NE 3rd St., Bend Centraloregonlocavore.org
The Sweet Tunes of Sustainability
Local music venues pair with the Broomsmen for sustainable cleanups By Danielle Meyers
Zero Waste Concerts draw enormous numbers of people to Bend’s venues. In recent years, artists such as Norah Jones, Jack Johnson, Zooey Deschanel, M. Ward and many others have played for large crowds—which also have the potential to leave large amounts of waste. Organizers for concerts at the Les Schwab Amphitheater and the Athletic Club of Bend aim to make their shows Zero-Waste events. Zero Waste is an initiative that strives to make trash emulate natural cycles, where all the waste that is created is then reused. These venues work with local business, The Broomsmen, to promote sustainability. The crew aims to make it easy to recycle—offering clearly labeled bins for recycling, glass, compost and landfill waste. On average, The Broomsmen say they can increase a venue’s landfill diversion rate by 72 percent. Cutting Down on Waste “The most important thing is to avoid overall consumption and think ahead,” said Phil Torchio, owner of The Broomsmen. Torchio says the business started out as a wedding cleanup service three years ago. From that experience, he became aware of the massive amount of waste each wedding produced and started to

Venues including the Les Schwab Amphitheater and the Athletic Club of Bend use The Broomsmen to sort and dispose of recycling—one of a few steps the teams at local venues take in the name of sustainability.
think of solutions. “The goal is to educate everyone on what to do with their waste. It’s more than just what bin you dispose of your waste in. It’s how we can all work together to make less waste,” Torchio said. The Broomsmen staffs its teams through Abilitree, a company that supports intellectually challenged adults. After a Bend event, The Broomsmen take the compost to Knott Landfill. The bottles and cans go to the Cans for Kids charity and Oregon Bottle Drop, and cardboard goes to Deschutes Recycling. This summer, the Athletic Club has The Broomsmen on hand for all of its concerts. Cyndie Rouse, special events coordinator at the Athletic Club, said, “We
love it; it’s the only way to get people to recycle properly—otherwise they just don’t pay attention.” Torchio noted that it’s awareness that helps promote recycling. “When people collectively start moving to promote recycling, when people start saying no to single use plastics, companies will stop supplying it.” Bend Recycle Style “At each event we teach people how we recycle, Bend style,” said Torchio. Still, The Broomsmen isn’t the only business promoting sustainability. Three years ago, the team at Les Schwab Amphitheater pledged a Take Note Initiative, designed to reduce waste and
make the amphitheater a more environmentally friendly venue. The initiative introduced reusable Silipints for beer and cider, and also offered compostable cups. They stopped providing plastic water bottles and started using The Broomsmen during summer concerts. “We love the planet and want to keep it nice,” said Brent Joseph, venue manager at Les Schwab. “The more organizations do to promote sustainability… is incredibly important.” In the first year of the Take Note Initiative, officials at Les Schwab say they reduced waste at the Amphitheater by 50 percent. The initiative also impacts tourists who visit local venues. “On any given summer day, the amount of tourists in Bend seems to exceed the local population. We need to do a better job as a community to promote recycling for the tourist,” said Torchio. Visit Bend released a study of how many people visited Bend. In 2015, 2.5 to 3 million tourists came to Bend and stayed and average of 2.4 days. To put that to scale, that would mean almost 20,000 people visited Bend each day in 2015. “Tourists need to know that importance of recycling in Bend. We all need to do our part,” encouraged Torchio.

hen contemplating ways to cut down on the consumption of plastic, cutting out straws, takeout containers and grocery store bags may be some of the first things to come to mind. Another big one—though not often in the mind of the average consumer—is to cut out the bags used to transport produce or bulk items from store to home. That very scenario is the reason behind the current fundraising campaign at Central Oregon Locavore. The nonprofit marketplace is raising funds to buy a new misting produce cooler to replace “Bartholomew,” a cooler donated by Expressway in 2013. While the current cooler still functions, it doesn’t have a misting feature—one that would help staff and volunteers avoid putting produce in plastic bags, says Nicolle Timm Branch, Locavore’s founder. In the dry high desert climate, the current system of placing produce in

Sheila Dunn: Painting Bikes Bend artist Sheila Dunn has a new canvas these days: bikes! Approached by David Marchi, owner of Crow’s Feet Commons, to customize the Open brand bike frames they were selling, Dunn has taken her unique style to create these one-of-a-kind bikes. Taking her style of broad colorful brushstrokes and translating that style to a clean streamlined bike frame proved to be a good learning curve for Dunn. While it was a challenge, it’s one that paid off, getting a great response from customers and an order to do more, reports Dunn.

—TAYLOR SMITH Sierra Mayer, left, and Taylor Smith are thriving in their roles with Americorps in Bend.
By Jaclyn Brandt something out and see if you like it without having to go to grad school first,” Smith said. “And it provides an education award at the end of the year that you can use for loans or toward future education.” Mayer is from the San Francisco area and Smith is from Bend, but both have found their homes with their new communities in the local area. Although their organizations are both similar in many ways, their experiences are completely different. Smith came into the program because she already had experience with Saving Grace and found a way to stay there. “While in college, I got involved with the Inside-Out Prison Exchange Program, bringing education inside prisons all four of my years, and that was my entry into social work,” Smith said. “I came back to Bend in 2016 [and] I started volunteering for Saving Grace. I volunteered for about a year and knew that I loved this work and wanted to get a job in it somehow, and an AmeriCorps position opened up. That’s how I became an AmeriCorps member.” AmeriCorps offers members the chance to do more than just gain experience, but to really make a difference in people’s lives. Mayer’s childhood changed her outlook on helping children, and she wanted to help others in

AmeriCorps fills a gap in between—providing opportunities for those looking to gain experience and help an organization in need. Sierra Mayer and Taylor Smith are two members of the Notre Dame AmeriCorps in Bend. Mayer is serving with Boys and Girls Club and Smith is serving with Saving Grace. Both are working 11-month programs in organizations close to their hearts. “It’s always been described to me as being the domestic Peace Corps, because originally I was really interested in joining the Peace Corps, but I felt like I needed to stay in the country,” Mayer said. “I was just more interested in helping the problems that I saw developing in our country. I saw that there was a lot of budget cuts to education and working with kids, so I felt like that was an issue that I could personally address.” The Notre Dame AmeriCorps was brought to Bend in 2010 by the Bend Volunteer Community. More than 60 members have served since that time. Joining AmeriCorps is not just about helping people, but also about developing skills in one’s career field. “It’s a really good way to just try
T
the same way. When she was in second grade, a kind gesture by a teacher who stayed late to help her improve her reading skills changed her life. “So when I started here, there was a kid who was kinda in the same boat. She was in the Spanish immersion program and I think because of that, some of her English skills weren’t as developed as they should be as far as reading goes,” Mayer explained. “So she struggled, I could tell that she wasn’t super into reading, but I worked with her and I actually wrote her a book for her birthday and illustrated it called, ‘Layla the Brave.’ “So reading became a fun thing for her,” Mayer continued. “She made a friend and her and this friend would read to each other all year—and because of that now she’s at grade level, which is a huge difference compared to what she started at the beginning of the year.” For Smith, helping women and families can have its highs and lows, but there are many moments when people at Saving Grace can celebrate their wins, both large and small. “It’s really exciting every time a client successfully gets a restraining order granted or if their abuser contests it and it still gets upheld in their favor. That’s
really exciting,” she explained. “But that’s still just one step in a really long journey. Anytime someone secures safe housing and gets to move out of shelter, that’s awesome. It’s always really exciting when something happens that’s positive because there’s just really a lot of really hard stuff.” AmeriCorps opportunities in Bend include not only Boys and Girls Club and Saving Grace, but also Bethlehem Inn, the High Desert Museum and the Children’s Forest of Central Oregon. The AmeriCorps website has a job search with all jobs across the nation in every organization. Members are given a living stipend, an education award, health care and child care during service, professional development opportunities and many other benefits. “If somebody is interested in AmeriCorps, their best step is to kind of figure out what they personally see as a problem and there’s going to be a program within the AmeriCorps system that offers a solution to that problem that they feel passionate about,” Mayer explained. “Whether that’s working on education with kids or domestic violence or really anything, and because they want to serve and work on finding a solution to whatever this problem that bothers them is.” SW

The business started in 2014 and had two sets of owners. The most recent owner, Chelsea Whitaker, made the tiny restaurant more upscale and revamped the menu—but alas, it’s gone.

A Source Weekly writer hits up the east coast home of Bend’s OG brewery By Christian Trejbal Christian Trejbal
Deschutes Brewery’s Roanoke, Va., tasting room boasts a host of branded merchandise, the mainstay beers that made it famous—and also, batches of Roanoke-only brew concoctions.
So were the tables, and a wooden arch over the bar mirror. Even the bar top is a solid wood slab, though that particular piece of wood came from an historic elm tree at Roanoke Country Club. And of course, there’s no shortage of Deschutes Brewery-branded merchandise for sale—much of it with a Virginia twist. Yet no one would confuse the tasting room for its Bend or Portland predecessors. It’s a smaller space, and there’s no food. All the beer is there more than 20 on tap, including that Roanoke-only beer. Brewer Jeff Schauland gets to make a batch of his own for the tasting
room. For the 30th anniversary, it was a refreshing German-style honey ale. Schauland moved to Roanoke from Central Oregon where he had been a brewer with Silver Moon Brewing. He has nothing but praise for his new home and its beers, though he misses the camaraderie among brewers in Central Oregon. “Everything is so new here. There’s not the brotherhood/sisterhood that there is in Bend,” he said, adding that the scene is improving rapidly. Southwest Virginia breweries such as Big Lick and Parkway are putting out solid beers. Ballast Point, a San Diego
microbrew, recently opened a production facility, tasting room and restaurant popular with locals. Deschutes cut a deal for hefty state and local incentives to build its own production facility in Roanoke, but in the spring, it announced it was reassessing plans and timing. That didn’t stop it from buying 49 acres in Roanoke for $3.2 million for the facility. Randolph said that a lot of people who visit the Deschutes tasting room have Oregon ties. One of them is Gabriel Bayley, who grew up in Medford, attended the University of Oregon and eventually moved to Washington, D.C. He and his family were passing Roanoke on their way to a July 4 holiday in Louisville, Ky. Bayley had planned a short diversion into town to visit the tasting room, even wearing his Deschutes Brewery t-shirt and bringing his growler to fill. “When I turned 21, the first six-pack I bought was Mirror Pond,” he said. “In Oregon, we’re spoiled with good beer. Recently the beer in Virginia has gotten a lot better, but some breweries aren’t making good beer. The test will be how many last 30 years.” SW
Dock Dinners
Suttle Lodge’s chef series gives local foodies variety By Nicole Vulcan
S
pend enough time hitting Central Oregon’s dining scene, and eventually, you may find yourself needing a little extra spice. Turns out, a need for variety happens to people on the other side of the mountains, too. “I think a lot of us chefs up in Portland have a tendency to just get stuck in the city,” said Maya Lovelace, whose pop-up restaurant, Mae, is notoriously booked solid. Her Southern-inspired dinners are so packed that Lovelace will soon open a brick and mortar. Meantime, she’s one of a handful of chefs bringing flavors to Central Oregon as part of the Suttle Lodge’s Dock Dinners series, which pairs Willamette Valley wineries with some of the region’s most celebrated chefs. Lovelace was named a semifinalist in the James Beard Foundation’s Rising Star Chefs of the Year category for 2017 and 2018. “We just wanted to come out here and get to experience the beauty,” Lovelace said of the Lodge, where she brought her famous fried chicken and sides July 8. “It’s also just nice to get out of the city and cook for a different crowd of people. You start to see the same people all the time, and we

love having regulars… it’s definitely nice to see some new, fresh faces and to get to introduce more people to what we do.” With a limited number of foodie haunts in Bend, this is something of a win-win for chef and eater. Lovelace’s dinner included creative takes on some otherwise low-brow items. We started with angel biscuits, a take on homemade Cheez-Its, paired with spreads including a ramp pimento cheese spread, cane syrup butter and last year’s pickles—so delightful I ate way too many.
The main course included Lovelace’s signature three-fat fried chicken—crispy, flavorful and cooked to perfection—with a deviled egg potato salad and fresh tomato braised green beans. Dessert brought a pound cake made with reduced Mountain Dew. Yes, you read that right. And no, I didn’t need a midnight snack after this meal. Dessert also came with a powerful hit of yellow chartreuse, selected, along with each course’s wine pairing, by Andy Young of St. Reginal Parish.
“He’s going to be running our wine program at the brick and mortar, so this is kind of our first outing together in a way,” Lovelace said. The next dinner in the series happens July 22, featuring flavors of the Eastern Mediterranean from chef Ricardo Valdez of Seattle restaurant The London Plane, and wine pairings from Montinore Estate. Aug. 5 brings an Italian dinner from Portland’s Nostrana restaurant and wines from Cameron Wines, followed by a mezze-style dinner featuring the chef from Portland’s Tusk and Suzor Wines Aug. 12. The Lodge’s schedule also includes Wednesday night brewery collaborations from area breweries, Thursday night wine tastings, and a Saturday night Big Lawn Music series, featuring—you guessed it, a lineup of cool, mostly-Portland bands. The Dock Dinners require reservations, but the music series is free.

A
s Deschutes Brewery recently celebrated its 30th anniversary in Bend, there was one beer that no one in town could sample. It was available only in Roanoke, Va., site of Deschutes’ eastern foothold. The Roanoke tasting room isn’t quite a year old, but it’s already a fixture in Roanoke’s burgeoning craft brew scene. On a hot, humid Virginia afternoon, I visited the air-conditioned tasting room, on a corner a couple of blocks from Roanoke’s historic market building. The location has a history of failed eateries. Before Deschutes, it was Thelma’s Chicken and Waffles. Before that, it was a restaurant neither as awesome nor as memorable as Thelma’s. Deschutes might have broken the site’s curse. That Friday afternoon, a couple dozen people sampled beer, and things would only get busier. “When all the downtown people get off work, we see an influx,” explained Steffon Randolph, pouring beers behind the bar. “Now that it’s summer, we get good crowds of visitors just stopping by.” The tasting room delivers a very Bend-like, craftsman-style vibe, slightly askew to the rural South around it. The wooden flight trays were made in Bend.

There SCREEN Halfway Checking in on 2018 By Jared Rasic Alison Rosa
Worst Movie: Super Troopers 2: I wanted to like this movie so much, but there’s nothing in it to like. The jokes are terrible, the characters aren’t the ones we remember and the blind nationalism is simultaneously insulting and poorly timed. How do you screw up something this badly that should have been an easy home run? Most Underrated: Rampage: Maybe I’m a simple man, but watching The Rock team up with a giant Albino gorilla to take on a flying wolf and a massively evil mutated crocodile is exactly what I look for in dumb summer fun. And that’s what it was: a fun and exciting adventure. Best Look at Disaffected Youth: Thoroughbreds: It’s hard to know whether to laugh or cry at this disturbing dramedy that echoes “American Psycho,” as seen through the lens of bored and sociopathic teenage girls. It’s hard to shake this one.
Best in Show:
You Were Never Really Here: From the blistering performance of Joaquin Phoenix to the flawless direction of Lynne Ramsay, “You Were Never Really Here” is a profound character study disguised as a crime/thriller. There’s not a wasted second in this film, which will eventually be seen as this generation’s answer to “Taxi Driver.” Paramount
Best Documentary: Won’t You Be My Neighbor: Structurally, this documentary looking at the life of Mister Rogers is a fairly standard biopic, but the timing of it is perfect. There’s something genuinely cathartic about seeing a good man decide to take care of our nation’s children in a way that teaches them empathy, kindness and love. Best Joke: Game Night: This surprisingly hilarious comedy/ thriller follows a group of friends as they get sucked into a game night that ends up being just as dangerous as it is fun. When Jason Bateman gets shot, his wife starts deeply cutting open his arm to find the bullet without noticing there’s already an exit wound. True cringe comedy at its finest.
Most Ignored:
37 VOLUME 22 ISSUE 29 / JULY 19, 2018 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY
Now that we’re a little over halfway done with the year, it’s nice to look back and see the highlights, lowlights and skid marks so far. It hasn’t been a classic year for film yet, but there are still plenty of upcoming releases that could make 2018 something really special in the realm of cinema. Here are a few of the standouts.
Annihilation: This is the movie that people decades from now will be shocked didn’t create more of a buzz. With a career-best performance from Natalie Portman and some of the most dreamlike imagery ever put on film, “Annihilation” is a modern classic just waiting to be discovered.
Most Disturbing: Hereditary: I still talk to people every day who can’t quit thinking about this nightmarish tour through the mind of the world’s most dysfunctional family. Anyone with a dislike for ants or creepy little girls should avoid this one at all costs.

ANT-MAN AND THE WASP: Yes, there are comic book movies galore, but once again Marvel manages to make the genre feel fresh and full of life. With charismatic performances from Paul Rudd and Evangeline Lilly, the superhero shenanigans feel effortless and obscenely entertaining. In Marvel we trust. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House, Redmond Cinema
OCEAN’S 8: With a cast featuring phenomenal talent including Sandra Bullock, Cate Blanchett, Mindy Kaling, Sarah Paulson and Rihanna, it’s easy to forget about George Clooney and his crew of thieves. The film is another easy-going and lightweight heist comedy in a time in which another entry is always welcome. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX
THE FIRST PURGE: The fourth film in the
franchise takes aim at the MAGA movement in what could have been a biting satire but instead is just another solid film in an already half-baked series. If the filmmakers wrote a truly fearless script, these films could be so much more. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX
thriller focused on the American government’s attempt to eradicate the Mexican drug cartels as they shift from smuggling drugs to people. With typically excellent performances from Benicio Del Toro and Josh Brolin, “Soldado” never lets up on the intensity for a single moment. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX
HEARTS BEAT LOUD: A painfully charming dramedy overabundant in beautiful and heartwarming scenes when it could have been a cheesy and schmaltzy nightmare. The best father/ daughter movie about starting a band that’s ever been made. Or the only one ever made? Possibly. Sisters Movie House, Tin Pan Theater
SKYSCRAPER: It’s “The Towering Inferno” meets “Die Hard” starring The Rock. There’s more to it than that, but I think that should be enough for anyone who loves action movies and Mr. Dwayne Johnson…and explosions big enough to be seen from space. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House, Redmond Cinema
HOTEL TRANSYLVANIA 3: SUMMER VACATION: From the creative team behind
SWEET COUNTRY: A powerful and shattering
“Samurai Jack” and “Dexter’s Lab” comes another goofy and fun animated adventure featuring all of the classic Universal Monsters. There are plenty of fart jokes for the kiddos, while the adults can enjoy the heartwarming look at inclusion and empathy. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House, Redmond Cinema
THE INCREDIBLES 2: The long-delayed sequel to the animated classic is filled with gorgeous visuals and action sequences which tend to hide the filmmaker’s obvious objectivist leanings. Audiences not trying to find philosophy in their cartoons will be delighted by the groundbreaking “Incredibles 2.” Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Redmond Cinema JURASSIC WORLD: FALLEN KINGDOM: The weirdest film in the franchise by far, “Fallen Kingdom” takes the established “Jurassic Park” framework and adds some of the schlockiest ideas since the last “Sharknado” movie. Enjoy the hilarious stupidity. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX
LEAVE NO TRACE: A powerful and mesmerizing look at a father and his daughter attempting to live off of the land in the middle of Portland’s Forest Park. Featuring another captivating performance from Ben Foster and featuring flawless direction from Debra Granik, this film should not be missed. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX MOUNTAIN: A sports documentary focused on the action behind the climbing as opposed to a specific mountain. Featuring ice climbers, free soloists, mountaineers, heli-skiers, snowboarders, wing-suiters and parachuting mountain bikers. Is that enough for you, Bend?!?!?! Tin Pan Theater
SICARIO: Day of the Soldado: A nail-biting
look at the current state of life for the Aboriginal people in Australia, as a thriller. Beautifully shot and acted, “Sweet Country” deserves to have as many eyes as possible on its beautiful imagery. Sisters Movie House
TAG: A surprisingly hilarious and heartwarming
look at a group of friends who’ve been playing the same game of tag for 30 years. With excellent stunts, deft character work and a surplus of belly laughs, “Tag” is a surprisingly great little movie. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX
WON’T YOU BE MY NEIGHBOR?: It’s about time that we had a movie focused on Mister Rogers and all the good he did the world. This documentary doesn’t really try to find his dark side, but maybe not every documentary needs to dive into heady territory. Instead, it’s a reminder how special the man really was. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House
STREAMING THIS WEEK
UNDER THE SKIN: This 2013 sci-fi puzzler is one of the most hypnotizing movies I have ever seen. ScarJo plays an alien who tricks unsuspecting men into coming back to her interdimensional sex palace where she consumes them like a parasite. I’m not sure I understand it and I’m not sure if I like it, but I’ve truly never seen anything like this pure burst of disturbing originality. Watch it so you can explain it to me.

A dispatch from an actual customer of the last Blockbuster—right here in Bend By Jared Rasic 39
I know some people are chuckling about the once-mighty giant that crushed the mom and pop video stores into dying an unnatural death, but you should know that the Blockbuster here in Bend is a mom and pop operation. I don’t want to be the old man yelling at clouds or anything, but there’s no way that “Netflix and Chill” will ever supplant walking around a video store with someone you like and both reaching for a copy of “Eraserhead” at the same time. That right there, kids, that’s how babies are made. The texture, the smell, the clerks with Jedi-like knowledge of cinema apocrypha… these things can never be replaced. I know some people are chuckling about the oncemighty giant that crushed the mom and pop video stores into dying an unnatural death, but you should know that the Blockbuster here in Bend is a mom and
It’s been a surprise novelty for people nationwide to read about this week—but here in Bend, our own Blockbuster has been our go-to for rare, old and new-release films for decades.
pop operation. I’ve been going there for close to 20 years (especially after I was fired from the Hollywood Video across town) and they’ve never made the spot feel like a dead-eyed corporate monstrosity. Don’t let the fear overtake you, though: the end of Blockbuster isn’t the end of video stores altogether. As long as places like CineFile Video in Los Angeles or Video Free Brooklyn in New York still exist, then the lost art of perfect video store curation will never die. After a decade, there will be a resurgence of love for lost cultural touchstones (I see you mounting a comeback, Drive-In Theaters) and, before we even know it, mom and pop shops will start dotting the country again. At its height around 2004, there were 9,000 Blockbusters nationwide with (according to the Washington Post’s Samantha Schmidt) a 1989 peak of a new store opening every 17 hours. Booms like that never last, but it’s still somewhat heartbreaking to watch your favorite type of physical media go the way of our forgotten playthings, “Toy Story 3”-style. After two
of the remaining three Blockbusters—both of those in Alaska—closed last week, the Bend store is the remaining one. I’ve worked at so many pop culture retailers over the years that my heart has calluses on it. I was working at a video store when VHS changed over to DVD and at a record store as people quit buying CDs. I’ve sold popcorn at a dying movie theater and printed tickets to plays no one ever came to see. Whether our little Blockbuster can survive Netflix, Redbox and Amazon remains to be seen, but one thing is for certain: As long as this one stays open, I’ll keep my card laminated. SW

hen I called the last Blockbuster on Earth to set up a discussion with general manager Sandi Harding, a clerk had to take a message because she was in the middle of an interview with CBS. About 48 hours earlier, I was in there returning a copy of “Sicario” and buying Season 2 of “Mr. Robot” on DVD for $5. As I dodged a half-dozen people outside taking pictures, I realized my neighborhood Blockbuster was blowing up. There’s something poetic about being a film critic in Bend, Ore., and living three blocks from the last Blockbuster Video in the world. I promise, I don’t take it for granted. If there’s a movie I can get for $1.50 from Redbox, I’ll still go to the little Blockbuster and pay $4 for the pleasure of walking around a store and hunting my white whale. If it’s streaming on Netflix, I’ll snag a Blu-ray—since never in history has beautiful, sweet physical media ever needed to buffer.

Searching for UFOs, Sasquatch and other mysteries in Central Oregon By David Sword
lanet Earth is a mysterious place. New discoveries happen daily, and age-old questions still remain unanswered. Our home in Central Oregon has its fair share of enigmas. If you’re open-minded, enjoy a good story and like to embark on adventures, you may find a lifetime of mysteries in which to pursue, right out your front door.
Man or myth? Strange sounds emanate from the deep forest. Giant footprints lie in the mud. No other topic evokes such spirited discussion than Bigfoot—also known as Sasquatch, Skookum and Skunk Ape, and often debunked and criticized as a publicity stunt or world-class hoax. The story of Bigfoot has deep roots in the Pacific Northwest. Native Americans have told stories of a foul smelling, giant, human-like, hairy beast, standing 7 to 9 feet tall, for centuries. Roger Patterson and Bob Gilman captured the most famous image of the creature in 1963 while exploring the forests of Northern California. There’s a long history of sightings in the Cascade Mountain range, including Suttle Lake, Mt. Bachelor, the La Pine area and both the Deschutes and Ochoco National Forests, says Bigfoot Field Research Organization researcher and Expedition Leader, Cindy Caddell. The heavily forested area between Mt. Hood and Mt. Jefferson is known as the Oregon Bigfoot Highway.

In addition, modern accounts are very similar to the oral traditions of Native Americans.” Her degree in anthropology and associated research, which includes work with Survivorman Les Stroud, has led to seeing connections between these cross-cultural experiences. “These have led me to believe there is something out there that warrants further investigation,” she says. “Anyone can look for evidence of Bigfoot. Several groups and organizations have regular outings (combined with) conventions, conferences, and speaking events where you can meet other people interested in this subject,” she says. The BFRO and the Olympic Project are two of the most respected and popular organizations on the topic.

ager at Lara House Bed and Breakfast, says guests have reported stories of an old innkeeper that becomes visible around the house. Built in 1910, Lara House has its fair share of creaky steps and paperthin walls, and “several ghost hunting guests (continue to) stay with us,” she says. “I do love a good ghost story.” Staff at The Commons Cafe, housed in Bend’s oldest home, the Goodwillie, or Allen-Rademacher House, built in 1904, say something routinely walks up and down the stairs. Sometimes it runs. (Disclosure: I work at the adjoining Crow’s Feet Commons bike/ski shop.) In addition, many people have reported the sound of children running down the halls at St. Francis School. Stories of spirits originating from the O’Kane Building in downtown Bend are well known. Fire in the Sky Gaze upon the night sky and ponder the magnificence (or significance) of the expanse. Viewing celestial bodies
from our terrestrial world is an avocation that embodies what it means to be human. There are literally billions of galaxies in the observable universe beyond our own Milky Way. These “island universes,” as they are often referred, statistically should hold the keys to life outside of our little blue planet. A private pilot flying over the Cascade Mountains in 1947 reported seeing a group of “flying disks,” ushering in the notion of beings from another planet visiting Earth. From science fiction and pop culture, to governmental coverups and conspiracy theories, the number of unexplained experiences happening to seemingly normal people is astounding. “Many people report what they think are UFOs because they aren’t able to identify what they have seen or photographed,” says Tom Bowden, Oregon State Director of Mutual UFO Network. “Often, an investigator is able to explain these incidents as misidentifications of known objects or phenomena. The remainder, generally about 10 to 20 percent of reports, remain unexplained,” he says. Sightings from pilots, trained military observers and your next-door neighbor have fueled the debate. “This is a deeply complex subject with a rich history, and people who have not studied it often have misconceptions,” says Bowden. “UFOs are real, but we cannot prove that they are alien spacecraft. Don’t get drawn into far-out belief systems. Learn about UFOs from solid resources such as good books by experts in the field.” (see OregonMUFON.com). SW
Owning a dog is a basic part of the Central Oregon lifestyle. Have you ever wondered what you would do in a medical emergency for your dog out in the backcountry? Dr. Alan Kelley, owner of Alpine Veterinary Clinic, is hosting a class to help Central Oregonians learn Canine First Aid. “You love your dog and your dog loves you, but most people don’t think about what they would do in an emergency situation. That is what this clinic is for,” Kelley said. Topics include: –– Assessing health status of canine –– Canine CPR –– Traumatic injuries and treatment –– Medical emergencies –– Environmental emergencies –– Flee prevention –– Vaccines –– Basic wellness and care

A Thorny Devil Kind of Guy
Remembering Brad Smith of Paulina Springs Books by Jim Anderson Wikipedia
Cl
with founders Dick Sandvik and Diane Campbell in 1992, who created the bookstore with high appeal to readers of many persuasions. Over time its good reputation had spread far and wide. Sandvik and Campbell began hosting author events, bringing a welcome new element to the already culturally rich community of Sisters. Six months after opening, they hired Sue Tank, who continues to be a vital member of the staff today. In addition to Sue, Bunny Thompson was working in the store at the time of purchase, and she too was instrumental in the shaping of the store’s character. In 2003, after 25 years of managing the CommuCyn nity Food Co-Op in Bellingham, Smith moved to th ia Central Oregon and began searching for a new community-connected endeavor. After visiting the store, he was impressed by the strong sense of community Sandvik and Campbell had achieved. When he learned they were interested in selling, he took the plunge. Owning and operating Paulina Springs Books was different from the community-owned grocery store he managed for years, but Smith worked hard at it. He also started a Paulina book store in Redmond, which he sold recently and the new owner has changed the name. Smith’s wish to be reincarnated as a thorny devil stick insect may have come from one of the zoology books he read. With his vast knowledge of languages, he may have grabbed the scientific name for the walking sticks, Phasmatidae, a Greek word meaning an apparition or phantom, referring to the resemblance of many species to sticks or leaves. Or perhaps he liked the idea of being included with the world’s longest insects. On July 21, there will be a celebration of Smith’s life held at Paulina Springs Books. Come one, come all! SW ar

“Children just glommed onto him!” Cynthia noted. Jim Ashby, general manager of a natural foods co-op in Bellingham, Wash., wrote a delightful account of Smith’s learning about the business world, in the Community Food Co-Op circular. “Brad was a driving force in the co-op’s growth and development for over 25 years. He began working for the co-op when they were using a cigar box instead of a cash register. “It can be said of very few people that if it weren’t for them an organization might not exist. Brad was that rare person for the co-op. For many years, he was the co-op’s most recognizable staff person. Longtime members will remember him as encyclopedic on both natural foods and co-ops,” Ashbuy wrote. “Brad has been gone from the co-op for quite a few years, and now he’s gone from the natural world. He left the evidence of his vision and hard work behind for us.” You can feel, see, experience and appreciate Smith’s influence on his store in Sisters the same way today.

rad Smith of Paulina Springs Books went out among the stars on May 20 of this year. But if reincarnation works, he’ll be back; not as Brad Smith but—as he wanted, believe it or not—as a thorny devil stick insect. If that goes as he planned, however, we’ll have to visit the Solomon Islands to catch up with him! Smith was born Dec. 13, 1954, in Spokane, Wash., and lived there until he was 5. His big sister, Cynthia says, “The family then moved to Clarkston, Washington and lived there for one and a half years. He was 7 when we moved to Portland, Oregon. I guess Portland was probably the closest to a hometown. After high school and several years of traveling around, he settled in Bellingham, Washington, and lived there until he moved to Bend.” Smith and his wife, Randi, lived happily together for 35 years before he proposed marriage. The occasion was their oldest son Leben’s wedding, and Randi accepted! During those 35 years another son, Austin, entered their lives, and out of all these events came a beautiful granddaughter, Hazel. It wasn’t his idea to leave us at such a young age. Those of us who were around Smith knew very well he was just getting started in the business of enjoying life. What got him was cancer, which in today’s world gets all too many people who enjoyed love, life and the pursuit of happiness. Smith’s sister remembers his intense curiosity as a young, snot-nosed kid, and how he almost burned their house down learning about fire, and on another occasion a few years later, while learning about gravity, rolling boulders into Loon Lake with the help of his brother, almost wiping out hikers on the trail below them. But she still smiles remembering the happy times their family had going to their grandmother’s school teacher’s cabin on Loon Lake, Wash., when all the kids were young. Smith went through his life applying his uncontrollable curiosity in just about everything he took on, which eventually brought him a great following with children, including his own, his grandchildren and strays. Throughout his adult life, when kids heard about any big outing coming up, they’d ask, “Will Uncle Brad be there?”

Housing Bubble Concerns
W
purchase. This group is very frustrated with the rising prices fading their dream of home ownership. Many hope a crash is coming and to be able to buy then. Overall, the rise in housing prices does not seem to be a concern as much as the other factors that influence the housing market, such as rising interest rates, tariffs on foreign lumber and building supplies that translate to higher building costs and other outside economic factors and geopolitical volatility and its effect on our economy. The most frequently cited factor for rising home prices is lack of supply to meet the demand for housing, said to be responsible for the rising prices. As long as that demand continues, it will fuel the upward trend in prices. Building more is not the only solution and pressure is on to find ways to open housing availability to first-time and mid-range buyers.
45 VOLUME 22 ISSUE 29 / JULY 19, 2018 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY
ith the increase in home prices reported in last week’s article, I have been asked by many people if we are staged for a correction or whether we are in a housing bubble. While recessions are inevitable in our economy, whether there will be one in the housing market is highly debated. Most real estate economic commentaries cite the differences between now and the most recent recession. The most commonly cited factor against a housing recession and bubble is that high loan underwriting standards are in place to prevent loan defaults, and that demand for housing remains strong. That is certainly true of our local market. Many who would like to buy are unable to do so because of the strict loan underwriting standards for debt to income ratios, yet many are dishing out 50 percent of their income to pay rising rents, making it more difficult to save for a down payment to

SCIENCE ADVICE GODDESS Credible Fret
Netflix And Kill
I’m a 34-year-old woman in a two-year relationship with a guy. I’ve never been the jealous type. Yet, I do feel oddly possessive and jealous in this relationship, especially lately. My friends say this a sign I need to “work on” myself. Really? If so, how? What do I need to do? —Worried
My boyfriend and I have a TV ritual— watching our favorite show together every week. Yesterday, I had a dinner meeting, and I asked him to wait to watch it with me, but he didn’t. There’s so much other stuff on TV. Did he really need to watch “our show”? He doesn’t understand what the big deal is and told me to just watch the episode myself and get caught up. Grrr. —Mad
“Hey, where’s the boyfriend?” your friend asks as she plops down on the couch next to you. You look at your phone: “Well, according to my tracking device, he’s at the end of Main, turning right onto Slauson.” Jealousy gets a bad rap. Sure, it’s sometimes a sign that your self-worth is in the toilet. But it can also be a sign that your boyfriend has been sneaking off to the toilet at work with his boss’s busty assistant. Evolutionary psychologist David Buss notes that sexual jealousy appears to be one of the “mate guarding adaptations” that evolved over human history—a sort of police dog of emotions to protect us from being cheated on. Buss observes that sexual jealousy is activated by “threats to mate retention,” including “the presence of mate poachers” (rivals trying to lure your partner away), “cues to infidelity, or even subtle signals that suggest that a partner might be dissatisfied with the current relationship.” But there are signals, and then there are meaningful signals. A possibly helpful thing to recognize is that we have overprotective defense systems. “Defense expression is often excessive,” observes psychiatrist and evolutionary psychologist Randolph Nesse. This isn’t an accident or a design flaw. It’s evolution saying, “Hey, hon, let’s be on the safe side here.” Consider the smoke alarm that’s a little oversensitive. This can be annoying when it screams for the hook and ladders whenever the neighbor lights incense next to her tub. But it’s far less annoying than waking up to your toes being crisped by your flaming bedroom rug. Figure out the source of your feelings so you can address it. Is there something amiss in your psychology that leads you to be overly sensitive—to see a threat where it doesn’t really exist—or are you sensing some meaningful danger to your relationship? It’s one thing to follow the person you love with your eyes as he walks off; it’s another thing entirely to do it with a pair of high-powered binoculars and a bug sewn into his laptop bag.
So, your boyfriend’s saying, “My darling...my love...you know your happiness means the world to me—just not enough to masturbate and read a book for an evening.” Amy Alkon To be fair, it probably seems like a TV show is just a TV show. What is the big deal if he watches ahead? But it turns out that context matters. This is a TV show you watch together—or, as my boyfriend describes it, it’s a “relationship show.” That probably sounds romantic, but considering our shows are usually murder-centric, date night is basically “Come over at 7, and we’ll have a nice dinner and watch six innocent people being gutted like hogs.” It turns out that the fictional social world couples share through their “relationship shows” can be important to their partnership. According to research by social psychologist Sarah Gomillion and her colleagues, it works like sharing a social network of real live friends and family members, fostering a “shared identity.” In fact, their research suggests that sharing a fictional social world “predicts greater relationship quality.” This was especially true among couples who “reported sharing fewer mutual friends with partners.” For those partners, “sharing media more frequently was associated with greater interdependence, closeness, and confidence in the relationship.” As for why you feel hurt, your boyfriend basically sent you the message, “I want to watch this show now more than I want to watch it with you.” But look to how he is in general. Is he loving? Does he usually—or at least often—prioritize your happiness and well-being? If so, you can probably get him to mend his episode-straying ways, simply by explaining why your collective fictional friends are important to your relationship. This is likely to fire up his empathy—or, at the very least, his dread of a brand-new recurring argument: “How can I ever trust you if you can’t—for a single evening—resist the seductive nature of the balding, annoying Larry David?”

ASTROLOGY By Rob Brezsny
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Here are some of the fine gifts you’re eligible for and even likely to receive during the next four weeks: a more constructive and fluid relationship with obsession; a panoramic look at what lies below the tip of the metaphorical iceberg; a tear-jerking joyride that cracks open your sleeping sense of wonder; erasure of at least 20 percent of your self-doubt; vivid demonstrations of the excitement available from slowing down and taking your sweet time; and a surprising and useful truth delivered to your soul by your body.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): During the last three months of 2018, I suspect you will dismantle or outgrow a foundation. Why? So as to prepare the way for building or finding a new foundation in 2019. From next January onward, I predict you will re-imagine the meaning of home. You’ll grow fresh roots and come to novel conclusions about the influences that enable you to feel secure and stable. The reason I’m revealing these clues ahead of time is because now is a good time to get a foreshadowing of how to proceed. You can glean insights on where to begin your work.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): A reader asked Libran blogger Ana-Sofia Cardelle, “How does one become more sensual?” I’ll ask you to meditate on the same question. Why? Because it’s a good time to enrich and deepen your sensuality. For inspiration, here are some ideas that blend my words with Cardelle’s: “Laugh easily and freely. Tune in to the rhythm of your holy animal body as you walk. Sing songs that remind you why you’re here on earth. Give yourself the luxury of reading books that thrill your imagination and fill you with fresh questions. Eat food with your fingers. Allow sweet melancholy to snake through you. Listen innocently to people, being warm-hearted and slyly wild. Soak up colors with your eager eyes. Whisper grateful prayers to the sun as you exult in its gifts.”
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): “If people aren’t laughing at your goals, your goals are too small.” So says bodybuilder Kai Greene. I don’t know if I would personally make such a brazen declaration, but I do think it’s worth considering -- especially for you right now. You’re entering into the Big Bold Vision time of your astrological cycle. It’s a phase when you’ll be wise to boost the intensity of your hopes for yourself, and get closer to knowing the ultimate form of what you want, and be daring enough to imagine the most sublime possible outcomes for your future. If you do all that with the proper chutzpah, some people may indeed laugh at your audacity. That’s OK! SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): This mini-chapter in your epic life story is symbolically ruled by the fluttering flights of butterflies, the whirring hum of hummingbird wings, the soft cool light of fireflies, and the dawn dances of seahorses. To take maximum advantage of the blessings life will tease you with in the coming weeks, I suggest you align yourself with phenomena like those. You will tend to be alert and receptive in just the right ways if you cultivate a love of fragile marvels, subtle beauty, and amazing grace.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): I swear the astrological omens are telling me to tell you that you have license to make the following requests: 1. People from your past who say they’d like to be part of your future have to prove their earnestness by forgiving your debts to them and asking your forgiveness for their debts to you. 2. People who are pushing for you to be influenced by them must agree to be influenced by you. 3. People who want to deepen their collaborations with you must promise to deepen their commitment to wrestling with their own darkness. 4. People who say they care for you must prove their love in a small but meaningful way. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You will never find an advertisement for Nike or Apple within the sacred vessel of this horoscope column. But you may come across plugs for soul-nourishing commodities like creative freedom, psychosexual bliss, and playful generosity. Like everyone else, I’m a salesperson—although I believe that the wares I peddle are unambiguously good for you. In this spirit, I invite you to hone your own sales pitch. It’s an excellent time to interest people in the fine products and ideas and services that you have to offer. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Would you do me a favor, please? Would you do your friends and loved ones and the whole world a favor? Don’t pretend you’re less powerful and beautiful than you are. Don’t downplay or neglect the magic you have at your disposal. Don’t act as if your unique genius is nothing special. OK? Are you willing to grant us these small indulgences? Your specific talents, perspectives, and gifts are indispensable right now. The rest of us need you to be bold and brazen about expressing them.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): “Take a lover who looks at you like maybe you are magic.” Whenever that quote appears on the Internet, it’s falsely attributed to painter Frida Kahlo. In fact, it was originally composed by poet Marty McConnell. In any case, I’ll recommend that you heed it in the coming weeks. You really do need to focus on associating with allies who see the mysterious and lyrical best in you. I will also suggest that you get inspired by a line that Frida Kahlo actually wrote: “Take a lover who looks at you like maybe you are a bourbon biscuit.” (If you don’t know what a bourbon biscuit is, I’ll tell you: chocolate buttercream stuffed between two thin rectangular chocolate biscuits.)
REBELUTION FREE REIN SUMMER TOUR STEPHEN Marley COMMON KINGS ZION I DJ MACKLE
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Here’s what author Franz Kafka wrote in his diary on August 2, 1914: “Germany has declared war on Russia. I went swimming in the afternoon.” We could possibly interpret his nonchalance about world events to be a sign of callous self-absorption. But I recommend that you cultivate a similar attitude in the coming weeks. In accordance with astrological omens, you have the right and the need to shelter yourself from the vulgar insanity of politics and the pathological mediocrity of mainstream culture. So feel free to spend extra time focusing on your own well-being. (P.S.: Kafka’s biographer says swimming served this role for him. It enabled him to access deep unconscious reserves of pleasurable power that renewed his spirit.)

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Am I delusional to advise a perky, talkative Gemini like yourself to enhance your communication skills? How dare I even hint that you’re not quite perfect at a skill you were obviously born to excel at? But that’s exactly what I’m here to convey. The coming weeks will be a favorable time to take inventory of how you could more fully develop your natural ability to exchange information. You’ll be in robust alignment with cosmic rhythms if you take action to refine the way you express your own messages and receive and respond to other people’s messages.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Self-described skeptics sometimes say to me, “How can any intelligent person believe in astrology? You must be suffering from a brain dysfunction if you imagine that the movements of planets can reveal any useful clues about our lives.” If the “skeptic” is truly open-minded, as an authentic skeptic should be, I offer a mini-lecture to correct his misunderstandings. If he’s not (which is the usual case), I say that I don’t need to “believe” in astrology; I use astrology because it works. For instance, I have a working hypothesis that Cancerians like myself enjoy better-than-average insight and luck with money every year from late July through the month of August. It’s irrelevant whether there’s a “scientific” theory to explain why this might be. I simply undertake efforts to improve my financial situation at this time, and I’m often successful.

hen living in Northern California, I spent many weekends doing the most Northern California thing possible, (aside from practicing nude goat yoga and crafting small-batch organic, free range chia kombucha), which was visiting wineries. Some of my favorite memories involve downing bottles of delicious, jammy Napa reds. Some of my least favorite memories were the epic hangovers that followed—a factor that led me to switch from the grape to the ganja. Wine is still preferred over weed by many, but that may be changing. That might not be great news for the makers of vino, but it’s a positive step for consumers, particularly women. Women make up nearly 60 percent of wine consumers, leading producers to market to them with greater intensity and success, and earning wine the somewhat creepy moniker “Mommy Juice” in some circles. (Do that? Stop.) Your favorite beach read, The American Journal of Public Health, published a study in June 2015 which “estimated the prevalence of any drinking and binge drinking from 2002 to 2012, and heavy drinking from 2005 to 2012 in every U.S. county.” It uncovered that men’s binge drinking grew 4.9 percent in that time, while women’s binge drinking grew 17.5 percent (with 38 percent of that growth solely attributable to Sheila in accounting, whose boyfriend slept with her sister, then maxed out her charge cards). This isn’t to say that every glass of wine is the devil’s sippy cup and will result in wreck and ruin—unless it’s a pinot spilled onto a white linen dress. But many of us know at least one person who has slowly progressed from a glass of wine after work once a week, to a couple nights a week, to a bottle or more most nights. Even in moderation, a glass of wine contains 100 to 300 calories, which can be an issue for those watching their weight, (#patriarchalbodyimagesarelies), alcohol is dehydrating and can result in drier skin and the histamines in red wine can result in skin flareups for those with rosacea and other inflammatory skin conditions. Reaching for a wine glass instead of a joint can be attributed to a number of factors. Wine is still far more socially acceptable in many circles—especially
the elusive unicorn for the cannabis market: soccer moms. Traditional smoking methods are (rightfully) frowned upon when used in close proximity to children, while less-invasive consumption methods, such as vape pens and low dose edibles, are not as well known. In states without a regulated cannabis program, legal, easy access to products is nearly non-existent, and education as to the comparative health and risk benefits between alcohol and cannabis can be difficult to come by, can or rely on outdated prohibitionist-era misinformation. But as legalized cannabis programs expand across the U.S., trends are emerging, showing that cannabis use could be a disruptor in alcohol consumption, and wine in particular. New York-based research firm Rabonack released a report showing several reasons why. A 2017 survey asked respondents, “If the federal government legalized marijuana would you... buy and use marijuana?” The rise was especially significant among women and older, wealthier consumers, the core demographic groups of the wine consumer. Another reason involves regulated cannabis programs passing in states with higher-than-average wine consumption rates. Rabonack’s paper states, “According to IWSR, the average, per-capita wine consumption in states with legalized marijuana is 13.4 litres. The average for states without legal adult-use marijuana is 8.2 litres. Over 30 percent of U.S. wine, by volume, is consumed in states that have legalized adult-use marijuana.” States that introduce legal cannabis see a dramatic increase in cannabis consumption (aka the ‘gee, really?’ factor). The paper says as “...a disproportionate number of the people exposed to legal marijuana are wine drinkers,” cannabis will replace a portion of the wine being consumed. Not the ‘64 Rothschild level of wine enthusiast, but as an analyst from the report states, the wine consumers “tend to skew to the under -$10 segments… (will be) most likely to see some potential impact from legalization.” Thus, your “3 Buck Chuck” wine drinker may find themselves puffing on $3 hangover and calorie-free grams in its place.
