TROY FIELD: NEXT TO SAVE OUR FIELD

STEP

FUNDRAISING

Brownstone Development has withdrawn their offer for buying Troy Field, this now opens the door for residents to start to work to raise the funds to acquire Troy Field and keep it as it has been for over a century—a playing field.

We have come a long way over the last year, when The Source published, “This Used to be My Playground,” in July 2015, with the news that the School District had accepted a $1.9 million offer from Brownstone Development for Troy Field who had planned on eliminating the field and building some condos.

That was the beginning of when the residents started the letters, petitions, and testimonies at the two hearings—the first hearing before a Hearing Officer—then the second before the City Council—both hearings had the same outcome—denying the change of the overlay zoning (denying commercial).

We are now at the next step.

Let us, together, save 109-year-old Troy Field.

Dear Bend La Pine School Board Members, While I appreciate your service to our community, I want to voice my concern and disappointment with your decision to take a position against Measure 97 (IP28) in this week’s school board meeting with your 4-3 vote: Nori Juba, Cheri Helt, Stuart Young, and Andy High voting in favor of taking a position against Measure 97; Julie Craig, Ron Gallinat, and Peggy Kinkade voting opposed to taking a position.

You see, this ballot measure is about something bigger. It’s about making investments in a better future for all Oregonians by addressing decades of underfunding of our critical services.

Finally, with just one vote, you will likely divide our education community. You have chosen pessimism over optimism. Many of the gains made last year between district office personnel, administrators, teachers, and classified staff are now jeopardized.

All of this, while you search for funding solutions to cope with our growing student population. You know as well as I do that if our district grows by 7,000 students in the next 20 years, as it’s expected to do, we will need to find significant additional funding to provide a quality education for every student. This measure is our opportunity to do that, which is why your lack of support is mystifying to me.

I, for one, feel betrayed.

coming traffic, you endanger us all. We are accustomed to keeping a straight line, within inches. Don’t crowd us, but don’t overcompensate, either, please.

4) Competent cyclists can be going approximately the same speed as traffic. If you need to turn right, and race past a bicycle to do so, they will not have enough distance and time to brake for you cutting in front of them, and will dent your passenger side with their body, as they crumble.

Thank you for your attention, let’s all enjoy a safe, active summer!

BIKE ISSUE As a frequent, longtime cyclist in Bend, I eagerly picked up the bike issue, only to face disappointment. I feel that you missed an opportunity to educate our growing population on the courtesies that encourage safe commutes for two-, three- and four-wheeled transportation. Here are a few suggestions: 1) Automobile drivers, please remember that our flesh and blood is at your mercy. A slight mistake or aggression easily kills us, while we cannot hurt you with our 100-200 lb. mass.

It is baffling to me why you would take a position on this. By continually relying on the tired argument, that you “just don’t trust our elected officials with a blank check,” you are essentially placing more trust in large corporations than you do in the democratic process.

2) EVERYONE signal! Turn signals have been ubiquitous in cars since the 1950s, and arms have been around much longer. Signal lane changes, roundabout exits, left and right turns and the exit ramp off the freeway, please. No reason not to.

You are placing more trust in multinational corporations like Comcast, Berkshire Hathaway, and Walmart. Incidentally, at the end of 2015,

3) Drivers, stay in your lane as you pass a cyclist.

Regardless of how you feel personally about the specifics of the ballot measure, regardless of your professions outside of the school board, your job is to fund our schools, not to take political positions. It is especially surprising when the Oregon School Board Association (OSBA) has chosen to remain neutral on Measure 97. Why would you come out in opposition to something that your very own association has chosen to not take a position on? This sends a very conflicting message to our beloved region.

AN OPEN LETTER TO THE BEND-LA PINE SCHOOL BOARD

LIGHTMETER

VOLUME 20 ISSUE 30 / July 28, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

The July 14 story about Bend Open Streets was attributed to the wrong writer. Annette Benedetti wrote the story.

DOG RESCUE BEND STYLE I would like to extend a huge thank you to the young man on the paddle board who saved my stranded dog from the river on Wednesday, July 13. Blackjack, my black and white terrier, had climbed over the badly leaning fence at the water park at Riverbend Park into a totally fenced off area where I was unable to reach him. I tried to coax him down river towards the launch area where there is a beach, but he had other ideas. He spotted a rock in the water and swam a few feet out to it. After eating most of the goose poop on it he was too scared and nervous to jump back into the water. A few minutes later a young man and dog on a paddle board appeared and, thankfully, agreed to rescue Blackjack. He had never been on a board, but fortunately he did well! I was so happy to get my precocious puppy back and would like the opportunity to thank this thoughtful and kind

paddle boarder. If he reads this please respond. I have also called Bend Parks and Rec who agreed to check the leaning fence and make necessary repairs. I hope that they follow through on this in a timely and efficient manner.

—Mary Robinson

LETTER OF THE WEEK Mary—We are happy to hear that Blackjack is safe and sound! In honor of the Dog Issue have a cup of coffee from Palate on us. Maybe his rescuer can join you for a cup!

Funding for Affordable Housing: A Step in the Right Direction

O

ne sunny summer morning not long ago, I marched across a dusty front yard in midtown Bend with a $45 rental application fee in hand. This wasn’t exactly the house I’d dreamed of living in when I knew I was moving to Bend, but it was adequate—and available, and I was going to lay down my application fee right then and there, no matter what it looked like inside.

When I entered the home, another couple was pacing around, opening drawers and asking about utilities. As would-be renters in Bend well know, having multiple people appear at a house showing is just part of the nightmare of finding housing. There are also the stringent application guidelines, and of course, pricing.

Turns out, I, the newly-anointed editor of this publication, got turned down for that tiny three bedroom with the dusty yard.

After paying multiple application fees, I’d get a place eventually—but as a journalist, what ran through my mind was, “How are working-class people able to rent in this town at all?” When rental companies require a monthly income of three and sometimes four times the rental price to qualify to rent a home—and prices are at an all-time high—it’s a valid concern.

Naturally, it cheered me and the rest of the Source editorial team to hear that the Bend City Council isn’t sitting still on this issue. Last Wednesday, the City Council approved roughly $5 million in support for affordable housing in Bend, on top of millions more since 2006. According to Jim Long, the city’s affordable housing manager, the $5 million comes in the form of donated land (from city surplus properties), construction tax ex-

emptions and system development charge waivers—all measures that can help make affordable housing projects, well, more affordable.

“Cities of this size don’t do this stuff.

They just don’t,” says Long. “I’ve been working in this field for 20 years and I’ve never seen cities do stuff like this.”

Long says it’s more common for state or federal agencies to offer serious incentives, but for cities, it’s rare. To ensure that the affordable units stay affordable well past the fanfare of their ribbon cuttings, Long says he monitors reports from the Internal Revenue Service and Oregon Housing and Community Services, which keep tabs on the projects long-term.

The city’s effort is a step in the right direction—but as a new renter and new resident of Bend squeezed by pricing and low availability, I have to wonder if it’s enough. Cities need renters—and buyers—from diverse income levels to fuel a diverse local economy. To that end I encourage landlords, property management companies and prospective home sellers to evaluate your motives when setting a home’s price. Ask yourself whether it’s based on a researched market value, or a trumped-up (excuse the pun) price based on market frenzy.

If the City Council is coming out in favor of affordable housing on a serious level, I’d like to think you can too.

This week, the City of Bend gets the Glass Slipper.

100 (and a Half) Years of Fun and Fitness

By Annette Benedetti

I

f you head to the Bend Golf and Country Club swimming pool on Monday, Wednesday, or Friday mornings, chances are there will be a water aerobics class underway. It’s a typical thing to encounter at a fitness center, but take a closer look at this particular class and you’ll see it’s anything but ordinary.

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

Honey Canney makes her way from Touchmark Senior Living Community to the country club by bus three days a week to teach that water aerobics class.

She teaches the class for free, but that’s not even the most noteworthy thing about it. Honey is 100 (and a half) years old, which makes both Honey and her class one of a kind.

Born on the 30th of January in 1916, Honey always loved the water. While swimming at a pool at age 13, a boy jumped from a high dive and landed on her back, knocking her vertebra out of place. She spent the next eight years in and out of the doctor’s office, until one visit changed her life.

“When I was 21 a doctor said, ‘Don’t worry about it, you’ll be in a wheelchair by the time you are 25,’” Honey says, “That was a challenge, that got me going.”

At the time she lived in Alameda, where a friend introduced her to a water exercise class called Aquathentics. From her very first class, Honey was hooked.

Finding a form of exercise that allowed her to stretch and strengthen her whole body without impact to her muscles and joints was just what she needed to get her physical health back.

In 1972, Honey moved from Alameda to Bend, where to her disappointment no one knew anything about Aquathentics.

Determined to continue her water fitness routine, she returned to California and attended a teacher training. Upon returning to Bend, Honey searched for a pool where she would feel at home doing her water exercises by herself. That’s when she found Bend Golf and Country Club.

they found that they were becoming stronger and more flexible. Before she knew it, Honey was teaching an official class that continues today.

Over the years, the size of Honey’s water aerobics class has fluctuated, but according to the Club’s director of activities, Margaret Collier, attendance has doubled in the last two years. “Two years ago there were only six to eight students in Honey’s class. Now it has about 15 or 16 students who regularly attend,” says Collier.

And since Honey’s class also draws new members and retains them, two years ago the club changed Honey’s status so that she no longer pays for membership.

From the start Honey’s water exercises drew attention. “As people came and went they said, ‘Well, what are you doing?’” says Honey, “It just evolved from there.”

Honey’s students are huge fans. The majority are 60 years and older, but students of all ages and abilities trickle in and out. Beverly Gordon has been attending Honey’s classes for the past five years and is going on 75. When Gordon first joined the class she didn’t think it would be challenging enough, but says it has helped her with her balance, strength, and flexibility. “Her class covers every single part of your body, including deep breathing exercises,” says Gordon.

As people joined her unofficial classes,

According to Gordon, Honey incorpo-

rates a breathing exercise that requires participants to hold their breath for a full minute two separate times, “Eventually everyone in the class works up to doing it.”

“You feel like you are capable of hiking and biking and kayaking. It’s amazing,” says Gordon.

Even more amazing is the fact that Honey has recently lost most of her sight. These days, she relies only on peripheral vision.

“I can’t see the food on my plate or a phone number in front of me…but I can move my bod…and I’m not going to sit back and cry because I can’t do something,” says Honey.

So how does she manage to teach a class?

No problem, says Honey. “That’s all hand and foot,” she says.

When asked if she credits a lifetime of water aerobics for her good health, Honey says, “That’s only part of it. It’s the joy of exchanging lives. Everyone shares their less-than-happy moments and their more-than-happy moments, and when you’re in the middle of something like that it becomes a joyful experience—and I have been privy to having that all of these years.” SW

Tower Theatre Gets a Facelift

BBC, in the heart of downtown Bend.”

Thanks to a grant from The Bend Foundation and matching donations from community businesses, the Tower Theatre in downtown Bend just got a facelift. The makeover included updates and repairs to the iconic marquee, fresh paint and wood stain inside and outside, and a thorough cleaning and resealing of the venue’s travertine marble.

Meanwhile, the vacant lot on the BBC’s north side is now owned by Steve Cavanaugh, a developer from Steamboat Springs, Colo. who purchased the property a mere hour before the BBC purchase. Deenihan is optimistic about what will be built next door, saying, “Steve is quite the entrepreneur, and he is open to collaborating with BBC, or building something that will complement the brewery. He just moved here from Steamboat Springs and is motivated to get something going. He is a fantastic neighbor.”

Longtime residents will recall the poor condition of the Tower in the 1990s, when it was shuttered and deteriorating.

In 1997, a group of community leaders launched The Tower Theatre Foundation to rescue, restore and reopen the historic building, which was constructed in 1940. Four years later, the city of Bend purchased the theater, sold it to the Tower Theatre Foundation for $445,000, then forgave $300,000 of the loan. The extensive renovation, which began in 2002, cost $4 million and took two years to complete. Since the Tower’s grand reopening in 2004, it has become a destination venue in Bend for visitors from all over the country.

With the theatre booked 200 days a year, finding a window of time to complete the recent repairs and upgrades was a challenge, according to Ray Solley, executive director of the Tower Theatre Foundation. Crews started the project on Sunday, July 17 and finished work on Friday, July 22. New carpet will be installed in September.

Bend Brewing Company Purchases Adjacent Lot Bend’s second-oldest brewery recently purchased the riverfront lot next to its downtown brewpub, where it plans to create an outdoor beer garden and a mini-pavilion for live music. The lot, which has been vacant for more than a decade, stretches from Brooks Street to Mirror Pond along the south side of Bend Brewing Co. (BBC).

According to BBC President and Co-owner Packy Deenihan, “Our intent is to create an outdoor environment for the patrons of Bend Brewing Co. that will be uniquely Bend, and uniquely

This news of the lot purchase comes on the heels of the recent reopening of BBC’s front room - aka “Brooks Street Taproom” - which was renovated to include a new bar, four more taps, and an open air atmosphere created by a large, hydraulic door that opens up to Brooks Street.

Humane Society of Central Oregon Gets $20,000 Grant Petco Foundation recently awarded a $20,000 grant to the Humane Society of Central Oregon (HSCO) to support Traveling Tails, an animal transport program. The funds will be used to purchase a Ford Transit 250 van that will be used to transport animals from overcrowded shelters to HSCO, and to take animals to other shelters and rescue groups.

According to HSCO Executive Director Sabrina Slusser, “This vehicle allows the Humane Society of Central Oregon to not only save the lives of hundreds of animals per year, as most animals will be coming from shelters that have high euthanasia rates, but also to get them into new homes quickly.”

In the Pacific Northwest, demand for pet adoption often exceeds supply, and Central Oregon is no exception. HSCO enjoys both a high placement rate and a high success rate in reuniting people with their pets, so the new vehicle will help the Traveling Tails program transport more homeless pets here to meet local demand.

Local residents fought against a home project at a local lava flow, but without help from conservation groups, neighbors worry about what could come next.

By M.W. Hill ost days, Julie Kisic’s neighborhood in Deschutes River Woods is a relatively quiet one.

There are the sounds of commuting vehicles and chirping birds, but compared to the activity that could have been, that’s pretty tame stuff.

Kisic is a homeowner living fewer than 50 yards from the volcanic flow at 19400 Comanche Cir-

cle, an 86-acre lava parcel that’s become the center of a “Save the Lava” campaign.

In June, Kevin Peterman, owner of the surface mining and gravel company, Able Supply, offered $185,000 for the parcel, with the intent to build a house on the land located below the lava.

The problem with that, DRW residents argued, was that the volume of material necessary to remove and grade the lava—sometimes as much as six stories tall—for a home build would significantly impact the neighborhood. And since the Deschutes County Property Information (DIAL) website assesses its value closer to $3,000, DRW residents also worried about the property value and the lack of clarity on county ordinances for maximum volumes allowed when clearing space.

Kisic says for the proposed space to be cleared, the neighborhood would have to deal with commercial dump trucks on streets intended for residential use, as well as blasting, crushing, and air quality pollution.

For Kisic and other residents in the 5,451-person neigh-

Newberry National Volcanic Monument Newberry Special Management Areas Post Mazama Basalt Flows Post Mazama Rhyolite Flows

borhood, those concerns were just too much.

Kisic pointed out ordinances regarding surface mining wouldn’t regulate this sort of grading because the material— lava—wasn’t below the Earth’s surface.

Thus, establishing an ordinance stating maximum removal amounts was prudent.

The issue came up at a County Commission public comment meeting in early July. After DRW residents detailed their concerns, Peterman withdrew his offer to buy the land. Peterman has refused to comment for this story.

A History of Excavation—and Foiled Plans Longtime DRW resident Tom Powell remembers when the Arnold Irrigation District acquired the property through a trade in 2004 and started excavating for a maintenance building the following year.

Powell says that between neighbors complaining about the dust, rock and noise and a septic system failing to pass county requirements, AID eventually abandoned the project and built their facility on Buck Canyon Road.

Throughout the proceedings, Deschutes County Community Development Director Nick Lelack was careful to caution county commissioners to respond in a way that would “protect all parties.” For the board to state anything in support or against on either side, Lelack explained, could be interpreted as prejudicial or bias in their quasi-judicial capacity. If prejudicial procedural error occurred, it could lead to a hearings officer making future decisions in proceedings, as opposed to the commissioners themselves.

Lelack also noted that crushing rock on site would be illegal without a permit from the county. If someone proposed site excavation in a manner never addressed before, the issue would be dubbed a “first impressions matter.”

A first impressions matter requires a public hearing with an independent contractor to determine administering the Deschutes County code to the property.

A decision is issued 30 to 45 days after ...Continues on page 11

Barely Outside a Protected Boundary

Visible on the horizon looking south from DRW or observable in map view, the Comanche Circle parcel is clearly contiguous with the flow draining from Lava Butte. The flow—with the exception of 19400 Comanche Circle—became the Newberry National Volcanic Monument 26 years ago, after two previous attempts

Determining Value At Deschutes River Woods, residents’ most favored solution is to acquire 19400 Comanche Circle and incorporate it into the Newberry National Volcanic Monument.

“From a geologic perspective, it makes sense to protect the entire lava flow within the monument boundary. I was surprised when I heard this parcel wasn’t already protected.” Daniele McKay, OSU-Cascades geology instructor in 1920 and 1940.

“Newberry Volcano is a special place,” explains Daniele McKay, a geology instructor at the Oregon State University Cascades campus.

“It is by far the largest volcano in the Oregon Cascades, and one of the most diverse in terms of the different types of volcanic activity that has occurred. Recent eruptions at Newberry have produced a wide range of volcanic features, which is part of the reason Newberry was designated as a national monument—to protect these special geologic features.”

McKay says the Lava Butte lava flow is one of the youngest basalt flows at Newberry, making it an ideal location to study volcanic landscapes.

“From a geologic perspective, it makes sense to protect the entire lava flow within the monument boundary. I was surprised when I heard this parcel wasn’t already protected.”

The Natural Resources and Sustainability Program Lead at OSU-Cascades, Matt Shinderman, PhD, weighed in by saying, “To be perfectly frank I don’t know what to think about the proposition. In some ways I wince at the prospect of any development related to lava flows, but I also recognize that some development may not have measurable ecological impacts. It all depends on what and where.”

According to Shinderman, critters including penstemon, rock spirea, the American pika and possibly bats have made a home in regional lava flows like the one adjacent to DRW. “We

to believe AID aims to sell the parcel for development.

Reinecke responded by saying, “A professional appraisal was obtained from a local professional real estate company.

The market value as of July 2016 was $185,000. It is our understanding that values have improved since July 2015.

AID intends to sell the property, not for any particular use or purpose. That is a decision for the purchaser within the applicable county and state land use regulations. Also, the property is not zoned for commercial development. It is zoned residential, 10-acre minimum lot sizes.”

Residents maintain that despite 19400 Comanche Circle’s zoning, a grading loophole in county land use regulation remains.

Reinecke also noted AID’s fiduciary obligations.

The entity is under pressure with litigation expenses from third party lawsuits related to other conservation matters. While AID would rather put funds directly to maintenance and efficiency improvements, it's also burdened with improving the watershed.

Despite those other concerns though, Reinecke says the board has unanimously expressed a desire to work with the neighbors in DRW.

Conservation Clock Ticking To pursue the conservation route, Kisic says residents have reached out to a significant number of local conservation groups, including Deschutes Land Trust, The Nature Conservancy, The Conservation Alliance, The Sierra Club, The High Desert Museum and others. So far, no group has agreed to take on the issue.

Even reaching out to Deschutes National Forest, the steward of Newberry National Volcanic Monument, wasn’t fruitful, Kisic says.

Kevin Larkin, District Ranger, said in a letter: “...The Deschutes National Forest does not intend to pursue acquisition of this property at this time...The Arnold Irrigation District property does not meet...criteria.

It would thus be a low priority for acquisition, and I concluded it would not be in the public’s interest to expend taxpayer funds to pursue it further.”

Naturally, that doesn’t allay DRW residents’ concerns.

“We don’t know if a Peterman or a similar company will purchase this land for development before we can find a land conservation organization that will buy it. What we do know is that if a sale happens it will cost the neighborhood and the county a lot of time money and energy,” said Bob Stillson, a DRW resident.

Whether AID is willing to continue to wait for the DRW residents to raise funds or conservation group interest, “Is up to AID’s volunteer board of directors,” says Reinecke. “Because AID is a quasi-public entity, decisions of this nature must be made by board member vote during a board meeting.” AID’s next board meeting is scheduled for Aug. 9. The board could consider this issue at that time or at future board meetings.

Kisic fervently explained, “I don’t think it’s the DRW that Bend remembers from the 70-80s.

It’s actually a very vibrant and up-and-coming community and we love how the lava weaves around our neighborhood. We were all so surprised when we found out the flow wasn’t already entirely incorporated into the Monument.” SW

Though Peterman withdrew his offer, patrons continue to worry that private ownership of 19400 Comanche Circle means development, permanently disfiguring a natural treasure, and endangered wildlife and the lava flow’s ecological profile.

also tend to see a number of species that utilize habitats on the periphery, including wood rats, chipmunks, golden-mantled ground squirrels, lizards and the occasional bird.” He notes these animals like the cool temperatures found in cracks and crevices below the surface, and the limited resources and terrain are likely to keep predators out.

The shady spot in the yard is calling your name.

The pups and kids are restless for yet another round of outdoor fun.

With temperatures finally hitting summer-worthy highs in Central Oregon, we figured there was no better time than right now to roll out our Dog Days of Summer issue.

Inside this special edition you’ll get the lowdown on the common calamities dogs face in the summertime, straight from the minds of local vets. You’ll find out how Oregonians’ most beloved plant – cannabis – can and can’t be used for canines. And to make sure you’re getting a full dose of summer fun with your best friend, you’ll also get the 411 on dog-friendly happy hours and the best dog parks in Bend – from the pup's perspective, of course. submitted

So right now, take a few minutes to explore all that the Dog Days of Summer edition has to offer – and then bust out that leash and collar and get to exploring our warm, wonderful, dog-friendly region.

Canine Justice League Super Heroes for Super Dogs

By Grant Woods

T

hey aren’t super human. They can’t fly or stop speeding bullets. They don’t wear capes—but they should. When it comes to dogs and their owners, three nonprofit organizations deserve a high five—or a high paw, that is. DogPAC, Fences For Fido, and Battle Buddies of Central Oregon have displayed super human powers throughout Bend and the surrounding areas, and for that, they’re earning a place in the “Canine Justice League.”

DogPAC

Fences For Fido

Battle Buddies of Central Oregon

The Superman of our Canine Justice League trifecta has to be the DogPAC organization.

This nonprofit group is working diligently on several fronts to promote, expand, and maintain off-leash recreational areas for our four-legged friends. Their mission is to “promote health and enjoyment of dogs and their guardians” by providing off-leash recreation.

The compassion and chain-breaking power of the Fences for Fido organization earns them the Wonder Woman role of the Canine Justice League. Fences for Fido builds fenced enclosures for dogs that would otherwise be left on chains to endure the harsh elements.

Operating on a 100 percent volunteer basis, they have a mission to “UN-chain…one dog at a time.”

Working in the trenches to round out the Canine Justice League is Battle Buddies of Central Oregon. In a superhero league, they would be like Batman. As an organization, Battle Buddies of Central Oregon has set a mission to “combat veteran suicide though Service Dog training.”

The DogPAC.org website is a tremendous resource. On top of the everyday push for new parks and trails, they’ve assembled a free and detailed list of great areas to unleash your pup. Their website breaks it down by categories including “OLAs” (off-leash areas), “Summer Trails” and “Winter Trails.” Here you will find descriptions of local parks or trails, directions, maps and expected conditions.

The site is also a gold mine for etiquette tips when it comes time to unleash the hounds.

Sign up to volunteer or donate to the cause at DogPAC.org.

SUPERPOWER Building and maintaining off-leash areas and trails LOCATION Bend, Redmond, Sunriver CONTACT dogPAC.org

Families in need may apply directly through the Fences for Fido website. Community members can also refer a disadvantaged dog (and its human family) anonymously. This nonprofit is truly focused on the well-being of dogs in the Central Oregon area. Along with the construction of a fence, the participants receive an insulated doghouse as well as options for free spay or neutering.

In true Wonder Woman-esque fashion, the committed volunteers at Fences for Fido accomplish an average of eight to 10 fencing projects each month. Sign up to lend a hand or donate at fencesforfido.org.

The staff of volunteer veterans and civilians understands the therapeutic power of canines. In hopes of ending the 22-veteran-a-day suicide rate, the Battle Buddies of Central Oregon recruit and evaluate Service Dog candidates, provide canine boarding and offer dog food assistance.

All services provided by Battle Buddies of Central Oregon are budget-based. Find ways to support, or volunteer to work alongside the Dark Knight of the Canine Justice league by visiting their website, battlebuddiesco. org. Application forms for veterans in need are also available online.

Bend’s dog parks

Review

By Bella the Dog | As Told to Russ Axon Hi! My name is Bella. I am a dog! A miniature Australian shepherd dog to be specific. I am 56 years old!

(Russ: That’s eight in human years.) I have lived in Bend my whole life, and I love it here! The blue sky, the gray grass, the nice people at the toy store who give me snacks and water whenever I visit. It’s great!

Still, my favorite thing about Bend has to be the dog parks. There are so many of them! My humans and I like to visit as many as we can, but I definitely have my favorites. I always get extra excited (Russ: read as “uncontrollably whine and pace in the backseat”) when we visit these local dog parks.

Bella and her ball enjoy visiting her favorite dog park, which is all of them. Photos by Russ Axon.

Riverbend Park

Ponderosa Park

Pine Nursery Park

799 Columbia St., Bend

225 SE 15th St., Bend

3750 NE Purcell Blvd., Bend

Riverbend Park is right on the Deschutes River in the Old Mill District. Most of the park is for humans, but there is a one-acre, fenced area just for us dogs. One side is just for small dogs. I cannot go in there, and it makes me sad. But the other side is for big dogs. I always go in there and make lots of friends.

That makes me happy again!

There’s a lot for dogs to do here! The dog park is three acres and fenced. The grassy part is for the small dogs. They like to run up and down the little hill there. It looks like fun!

But I like to run in the big dog area. When I first go in, there are huge trees and a small hill to run around. It is like being in a forest!

Then I like to run to the back where there is a big hill with lots of trails and bushes and dirt and rocks! My humans and I like to walk around this park lots and lots of times until I am exhausted.

This is my favorite dog park in the whole, cone-shaped world! Whenever we visit, my humans and I walk by lots of people playing weird human sports, like lacrosse, pickleball or disc golf. There’s even a small pond which I always want to swim in but my humans never let me.

It can get very crowded in there, but when it does my humans and I walk along the river instead. I have to wear a leash which is not fun. But I also get to play in the water which is a lot of fun! Sometimes, my humans and I like to go to one of the nearby restaurants after our walk and eat dinner outside. French fries that fall on the ground are my favorite!

I wish it was bigger so I could run faster and give the other dogs space. But I like how close it is to the water. And my humans like how close it is to our home.

I do not always meet a lot of other dogs at this park, but the ones I do meet are very friendly. I also like to go up to the fence and bark at the skateboarders next to us. They move so fast, so I have to remind them to slow down!

My paws and fur always get dirty when I visit this park, but that doesn’t bother me! I like exploring the different terrain. I always discover something new here.

It’s OK though, because I always have fun at the dog park! It is gigantic: 16 acres filled with everything I dream about! There is a grassy field where I and other dogs like to play our canine sports, like catch, fetch and get the ball. There is a trail area that I always explore. And there are water fountains shaped like fire hydrants so I can keep cool and hydrated between all the running I get to do.

There are always lots of other dogs to meet.

And lots of humans who will pet me. Once I meet everyone, though, I can always find a good spot for my humans and I to play without the other dogs getting in the way.

There is so much to do at this park! I always leave happy and very tired! If I could give it two thumbs up, I would! But I do not have thumbs. So I will give it four out of four paws!

When Things Get Hairy Local Veterinarians Discuss Common and Uncommon Cases

By Mikayla Lewis

Spend any time in Bend, and you’ll realize it’s jam-packed with adventure-seekers and their dogs. Sometimes, those adventures go awry for our furry friends, leading to an emergency visit to one of Bend’s many veterinarian clinics.

seeing more dogs that have ingested edibles. Dog owners bringing in their sick, disoriented pets used to be more coy about this specific problem, generally mumbling, “Where could they have gotten into that?” when they heard the diagnosis. Dr. Deborah LaPaugh of La Paw Animal Hospital reminds pet owners, “Dogs aren’t built like people.”

For them, marijuana use is far from recreational.

Dr. Byron Maas of Bend Veterinary Clinic has seen some horrific injuries that dogs eventually walked away from. One particular patient was brought in after it wandered too close to train tracks and was clipped by a train that sent it rolling down a hill.

Dr. Maas described it as a “de-gloving injury” affecting nearly two-thirds of the dog’s fur and skin. The damage was extensive, and it took more than two months to nurse the dog back to health, but it eventually left the clinic on all fours.

Local veterinarians say dog emergencies tend to be seasonal: mushroom toxicity in the early spring, cheatgrass and heat exhaustion throughout the summer, and blue-green algae poisoning near the beginning of fall.

Flying Dogs, Destiny, and a Show Dog Lovers will Never Forget J.D. Platt’s K9 Kings Flying Dog Show

By Annette Benedetti

J.D. Platt is best known as the man with the high-flying dogs and the only human performer in K9 Kings Flying Dog Show, but his experience in the entertainment industry started long before his canine companions came along.

As a former professional snowboarder, Platt spent his younger years shredding the slopes at Mt. Bachelor, entertaining sports enthusiasts, and learning the ins and outs of show business. One afternoon just as his career was winding down, a man stopped to pick up Platt as he hitchhiked his way home from the mountain. That man was Perry Lenhart, a halftime National Football League entertainer who worked with Frisbee dogs, and the

conversations they had that day changed Platt’s life.

“I had been wanting to do something different,” he says, “That was my defining moment. I was in the right place at the right time. It was 100 percent destiny.”

music, and enthusiasm,” says Platt.

“I love what I do and more importantly, my dogs love what they do.”

Platt’s enthusiasm and love for what he does draws the masses, earning his show an impressive list of sponsors including Keen Footwear, PMI Nutrition, Les Schwab Tire Centers, and Komfy K9. The magnitude of the support he has earned is unique in the world of canine entertainment and allows Platt to continue the work that he loves.

Over the years, Platt has adopted several dogs including purebreds, mixes, and rescues. He recently lost Galaxy, and his canine family consists of 11 dogs: 10 females and one male.

Platt and his dog family travel about 120 days a year, participating in 25 events, and putting on hundreds of shows.

Dog lovers can cheer on Platt and his K9 Kings at the Deschutes County Fair. His shows will run from Aug. 3 through Aug. 7.

Drink, Dance and Soak Yourself Silly Music festival + hot springs = perfection

By Jared Rasic 21 VOLUME 20 ISSUE 30 / July 28, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

Clockwise from top left, Broken Down Guitars, the Chinups, Subliminal and Wayward Soul are set to play at Summer Lake Hot Springs, 8/5-6.

I

n a perfect world, all music festivals would include not just beer and live music, but natural beauty and a chance to soak yourself into oblivion.

It might not be the combination you get other places, but at the Broke Down Soakdown at Summer Lake Hot Springs this August, you get all that and more.

Hosted by Bend’s own Broken Down Guitars, the Soakdown has already been called “The First Annual Broke Down Soakdown” because of course, this is something sure to last for years to come.

It’s just too good of an idea.

DJ Raider Mystic explains how the event came to be. “Well, it all started out from love. Stacie (Johnson from Broken Down Guitars) and I have been out to Summer Lake just a few times, for our birthdays and for Valentine’s Day. We saw the stage that was built there for the Coyote Fest they had there a few years back and were like, this is such an amazing beautiful, setup and it would be so fun to have a

party out here and play music.”

The idea evolved from including Broken Down Guitars to adding other bands such as Subliminal, the Chinups, Theclectik and Wayward Soul.

“Everyone is gung-ho and it’s turning into something surreal,” Mystic says. “What’s not to like about hot springs and the serene epic beauty of Oregon’s high desert and a bunch of cool people?”

When the sun goes down, the views of the dry desert playa will be replaced by The Taffy Rot Light Show, happening late night Friday and Saturday. For this part of the fest, creator Phillip Sinclair is doing something altogether different than a typical music festival light show.

Even with an explanation, The Taffy Rot Light Show is going to need to be experienced to truly understand.

“I’m using a mix of old and new techniques and technologies to produce a very hands-on, living, breathing, psychedelic light show,” explains Sinclair. “A big

focus for me is the ‘liquid’ aspect that was popular in the late 60s and early 70s: a mix of dyes, water and oils are manipulated to make spontaneous shapes and patterns. This was traditionally done on overhead projectors. I’m using digital visual presenters and digital projectors and mixers which gives me freedom to mix and alter the imagery how I like.”

As the Soakdown enters the evening hours, Sinclair plans on making the darkness downright psychedelic. “Some of the mixers I use have circuit boards that have been modified to ‘glitch’ the processed images in a lot of fun, unpredictable colorful ways,” says Sinclair. “While one team member plays with liquids, another can mix the feed from the liquids with glitched images via VCR, DVD, laptop, the possibilities are endless. There’s also a whole world of video feedback and mixer feedback which adds a very dense, trippy layer to everything.”

The music and the light show are taken care of, but the majesty of Summer

Lake Hot Springs by itself shouldn’t be underestimated. The water travels from nearly a mile below the surface, is heated by VOLCANO MAGIC (and science), is forced upward through the Slide Mountain fault line and then heats our beautiful bodies at 106 to 113 degrees.

The Summer Lake Bath House isn’t just historic, it’s also the perfect place to get a delightfully hot soak on.

Summer Lake Hot Springs doesn’t allow dogs (because historic hot spring) and is BYOB (because historic hot spring), but music, nature and good friends will be abundant. Soak it in. SW

Acoustic Souls

Rodrigo y Gabriela play well together

By Jared Rasic

WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / July 28, 2016 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

R

odrigo y Gabriela don’t just make beautiful music together, they are beautiful music together. As an acoustic guitar duo out of Mexico City, their guitars complement each other flawlessly and create a wall of sound in which to get lost. Their acoustic guitars feel propulsive in a way acoustic guitars rarely have the chance to be.

Rodrigo Sanchez and Gabriela Quintero were raised in middle-class households where they were exposed to flamenco, jazz and rock, but it was metal that brought them together. They met at the House of Culture in Mexico City when they were both 15, bonded over music and started dating soon after. Rodrigo formed a metal band in the early 1990s, and when that fell through in 1997, the two left Mexico City and eventually headed for Europe.

After traveling around, they settled in Dublin in 1999, where they started opening for Damien Rice.

The album “re-Foc” was released in 2002 as a re-recorded and expanded release of their original 9-track demo record. They are accompanied by violin, bass and percussion, which add a texture to their music that it doesn’t always have.

Their self-titled debut was released in 2006, making it to the very top of the charts in Ireland. Along with excellent originals, the album has a cover of “Stairway to Heaven” that gives pause to anyone complaining about Zeppelin covers. The album blends Spanish, jazz and rock to create a genre that feels solely their own. The Latin guitar is prevalent, but their love of Metallica and Megadeth shines through not just in their covers but in the aggressive way Rodrigo attacks the guitar and Gabriela shreds the guitar-top hand percussion.

“11:11” was released in 2009 on the indie label Rubyworks. In a nod to their deep and abiding love of metal, “11:11” was

mixed by Colin Richardson, who’s also worked with Slipknot and Trivium.

While the album has shades of Latin artists like Jorge Reyes, there are also shades of Santana, Metallica and even Pink Floyd throughout. Rodrigo’s picking on the track “Hora Zero” is some of the most virtuosic guitar playing to be released on any record I’ve heard. The album is fast, furious and, truthfully, flawless. This is the record where I wondered what a thrash metal album from the duo would contain—and then wept for its non-existence.

In 2012 Rod and Gab did an album collaboration for the first time with “Area 52,” a team-up with the Cuban orchestra C.U.B.A. The album is comprised entirely of re-recordings of previously released songs, but the addition of C.U.B.A. makes their music explode even more. The presence of horns and percussion gives Rod and Gab’s music a decidedly more Latin flavor, but really, it’s only shedding light on what was already there.

Their most recent record, 2014’s “9 Dead Alive” forgoes most of the Latin flavor for an altogether darker and blues-ier vibe. There is something guttural about the record that makes it feel overwhelmingly personal for the listener as well as the artists.

Rodrigo y Gabriela have made beautiful music together for two decades, and seeing them live only allows for a minor peek into the depth and breadth of their genius together.

Their guitars don’t just play together; they speak in a way that language can’t begin to define. SW Rodrigo y Gabriela Thursday, Aug. 4, 7pm Peak Summer Nights Bend Athletic Club, 61615 Athletic Club Dr., Bend $39

CULTURE

Part of Our World

"The Little Mermaid" swims to shore

ART WATCH

By Annette Benedetti

By Jared Rasic 33

Before Disney and Broadway, “The Little Mermaid” started life as a fairy tale by Danish author Hans Christian Andersen. Published in 1837 and adapted dozens of times over the years, the original story of “The Little Mermaid” was much darker than many subsequent retellings. One of the morals of the story basically blackmails children into being good so they don’t add time onto the 300 years of servitude the Mermaid is involved in as she works toward obtaining an immortal soul and working her way toward the Kingdom of God. You know—typical children’s story themes.

The 1989 Disney animated film is where most people became familiar with the story. It tells the tale of Ariel, a beautiful mermaid who falls in love with a human and trades in her lovely singing voice for a pair of legs and three days to make him kiss her. The story and characters were great, but it was the music and lyrics by Howard Ashman and Alan Menken that captured the imagination of kids and families across the world. Ashman and Menken were also behind such memorable musicals as “Beauty and the Beast,” “Aladdin” and “Little Shop of Horrors.”

So even if their names aren’t familiar, their work has become a thread of the

American musical fabric over the years.

Disney had seen great commercial and critical success with their Broadway versions of “The Lion King” and “Beauty and the Beast,” so bringing “The Little Mermaid” to the stage was a natural fit.

The show ran for close to two years – logging 685 performances before closing and eventually retooling for regional theater companies.

Thoroughly Modern Productions and its artistic director David DaCosta have never been afraid of mounting a massive production on the Central Oregon stage, and their version of “The Little Mermaid” is no exception. This is the same team that’s put on “The Wizard of Oz,” “Shrek,” Beauty and the Beast” and “The Last Five Years” here in Bend, so it seems there’s no production too daunting for this company.

“The music in this is Disney’s best,” says DaCosta about his excitement for this production. “The tandem work of Ashman and Menken, the story, the performers we were able to get. We were hoping for quite a few of them, but on top of them there were some surprises, which was nice. Things played out the way we were hoping in regards to who was in town and who was available. We knew it would certainly be a hit with the kids in our youth program.”

TMP’s youth program offers an intensive vocal and acting for musical theater course designed for kids across Central Oregon. A large part of the program isn’t just the education, but the hands-on experience of participating in launching a full-sized performance at The Tower Theatre. The cast of kids in

the program is then combined with the cast of adults who auditioned for the production, creating an environment where the next generation of actors is fostered by the current one.

I watched a rehearsal for the production at Terpsichorean Dance Studio, and even without the costumes, sets and special effects, I found myself imagining I was under the sea with everyone else.

Shantae Knorr is a fantastic Ariel, whose bright red hair and big expressive eyes will make an entirely new generation of kids fall in love with mermaids. When she sang “Part of Your World,” it didn’t seem like anything less than watching parts of my childhood imagination come to life. Knorr is so believable as a Disney princess that it will be hard to convince children otherwise.

From Dan Schimmoller’s goofy, warm-hearted Scuttle to Megan Robertson’s perfectly calibrated Ursula to Ben Larson’s show-stopping “Under the Sea” as Sebastian, this is a perfectly-cast show. There’s a bit of Disney magic in that group of adults and kids, and everyone who sees “The Little Mermaid” will have a piece of that magic to bring home with them. SW The Little Mermaid Aug. 4 & 5 at 7:30pm Aug. 6 & 7 at 2pm & 7:30pm Tower Theatre, 835 NW Wall St., Bend $30-$35

Local galleries host nonprofit exhibit.

Disjecta: A Biennial of Contemporary Art 2016 Founded in 2010, the Portland Biennial, Disjecta, is one of the largest nonprofit art exhibitions around. Centralized in Portland but taking place all over the state, the two-month gala features 34 contemporary artists across 25 venues in 13 Oregon communities. At North Portland’s Disjecta Contemporary Art Center, curator Michelle Grabner exhibits 106 artists (including the 34 showcased artists) she selected on her 1,800-mile, 107-gallery visit across Oregon.

To see part of the show closer to home, visit the two participating galleries in Central Oregon, including the Art Adventure Gallery in Madras and the Pence Gallery at Central Oregon Community College (COCC) in Bend.

Artwork by Pat Boas and Jon Raymond is displayed at the Art Adventure Gallery in Madras through Sept.

18. Boas displays painting, drawings, prints and digital projects about reading. Raymond displays his own collection of 25 years of reviews, essays and interviews as a Portland-based novelist and screenwriter.

Meanwhile, artist David Bithell of Ashland is showing a large installation of sound and light at the Pence Gallery at COCC. Generated visually and electronically, Bithell’s installation is comprised of a series of 36 individual aluminum discs atop resonating chambers, producing notes coordinated by a computer to play various percussion patterns. The piece is called "Passage," and is open to viewers from noon-5pm, Thursday-Saturday through Sept. 18.

The Biennial continues the tradition of the Oregon Biennial that originated in the Portland Art Museum in 1949 and ended in 2006. For more information visit portlandbiennial.org.

The Only Local Nature Guide You Need Bend author’s new book covers the spectrum of local nature, with humor, facts and stunning photography

These Central Oregon natives (and more) can be easily identified in a new comprehensive field guide.

L

et’s say you’d like to know more about the Central Oregon outdoors.

Before you head out on your next adventure, you might drop a field guide for birds into your backpack. Plus one or two for wildflowers. Then one more for mammals, and another for trees and shrubs.

Or you could take just one book. That is, if you’d enjoy a single guide that provides entertaining overviews and full-color photos of more than 350 plants and animals found within an hour’s drive of Bend. The Nature of Bend, by local author LeeAnn Kriegh, hit area bookstores in June and has been lightening the load on backpacks ever since.

And it fills a pressing need. Kevin Lair, owner of Wild Birds Unlimited, puts it this way: “People have been asking for this for the 16+ years our store has been here, and finally it exists—a comprehensive guide to our flora and fauna!”

The Nature of Bend is the only guide you’ll find that focuses solely on the plants and animals of Central Oregon.

In fact, it’s so localized that listings detail not only general habitat but also specific

trails, forest roads, parks, and even hotel parking lots where each species can be found.

And here’s what I love about this book, compared to more typical field guides: it’s funny. It’s great to know scientific facts, but what really draws you in is finding out specifically just how disgusting turkey vultures are (for one example). Kriegh has a breezy, conversational writing style that’s more like sitting over a beverage with a really smart friend, than reading a textbook.

She says the lighthearted tone is intended to help readers connect with each species. “If you tell me that a bird is called a Yellow-rumped Warbler, it’s a migrant, and it lays a certain number of eggs each spring, I’ll forget all that in about 10 minutes,” she says. “But if you tell me the bird’s nickname is ‘butter butt’ and then you show me why, I’ll remember it forever, and I’ll laugh every time I see it.”

Kriegh emphasizes that she’s not a biologist, botanist, “or an –ist of any kind.”

She has run a copywriting business for the past dozen years and wrote The Na-

ture of Bend with the help of more than 30 naturalists and 40 photographers, including well-known local professionals such as Mike Putnam and Bruce Jackson.

Working with those pros—all quite willing to share their accumulated knowledge and skills—lets her function as a (literate, amusing) bridge between the experts and the audience.

And readers can put their newfound knowledge to fun use. In the back of the book there are a dozen different scavenger hunts, in locations ranging from Suttle Lake to LaPine State Park.

Each quest features a target list of 50 plants and animals, arranged by degree of difficulty, that can be found at each location.

LITTLE BITES

Eat, Drink, and Be Hairy Dog-Friendly Happy Hours If Bend loves anything as much as beer, it must be dogs. Any time we can combine those two favorites, we’re in dog heaven. Here at the Source, we did some digging around and sniffed out the best dog-friendly happy hours in Bend. No need to thank us; it wasn’t too “ruff” to put together.

Crux Fermentation Project— 50 SW Division St., Bend. Tuesday-Sunday.

Half hour BEFORE and half hour AFTER sunset. No matter what time sunset happens, Crux is celebrating it. This kind of change-with-the-seasons flexibility makes our tails wag. Lots of food and drink choices are a big plus for humans, but the best treat is for the dogs: a big, open field to run on (while on leash please) and friendly people playing games. This is our alpha choice.

Fads come and go, but at Spoken Moto, things such as classic bikes, beer, handmade quality clothing and ice cream never seem to die. Photos by Angela Moore.

I

’ve got a few hundred words to describe Spoken Moto to y’all, but I don’t think I need that many. Honestly, I’m pretty sure I can break it all down for you in just one simple phrase: “Hipster A-F,” as the kids today would say.

I don’t mean that in a negative way, not even a little. The hipster movement is alive and well in Bend, and it’s really one of the only ways to adequately describe a shop that is a mix of vintage motorcycles, coffee, beer and natural gear. It’s a pretty cool concept and there isn’t another place in Bend like it.

Spoken Moto is the brainchild of three guys with a solid vision and some quality tools. Brent Van Auken, Brian Gingerich and Steve Buettner, the shop’s co-owners, see great things for their beloved new spot. “I have always been a creative with a love for old motorcycles. So this shop is a dream come true,” says Van Auken.

The shop is located on SW Industrial Way in Bend and is reminiscent of the kind of garage hangout spot that we grew up watching on family sitcoms.

The building is (as the street address suggests) located in an industrial building with large garage doors and vaulted ceilings. The interior is simple and broken off into two sections. The back is where the motor magic happens, featuring more than 75 vintage bikes and a gaggle of spare parts. The shop bit is primarily hidden behind a rustic wood wall, used functionally and esthetically on the front side for an array of handmade clothing and accessories.

But since this is Chow, let’s move onto the food and libations, shall we? Although Spoken Moto doesn’t have a menu yet, they do have plans to gear up some grub.

Currently they’re offering local pastries from Too Sweet Cakes, Fearless and Sparrow Bakery, which go well with the coffee drinks Moto has on its drink list. The roasting of the coffee is also local, and by “local” I mean, “roasted

by Bendite Boys.” These hand-roasted caffeinated beans of joy can be identified by the brand name Megaphone Coffee.

For good reason, too; that stuff will get you LOUD.

Now for the taps. “On the beer side, we have eight taps and will rotate our menu to feature the best of the craft beer scene,” says Van Auken. “We also offer cider, kombucha and wine.”

It might not be the first thing you think of, but the place also has an Addy Mac’s Ice Cream truck out front. Oh sweet Heavens…yum.

Van Auken did make a special note, however, that Moto will be offering dogs from the Portland-based gourmet sausage company Zenners very soon. And you know what goes great with sausages?

Beer. And you know what else goes great with beer? Hanging out with friends.

To that end, grab some buddies and come check this place out. It’s worth a gauge and a gander. SW

Crow’s Feet Commons— 875 NW Brooks St., Bend.

Monday- Friday 3-6pm and all day Sunday. Recently Crow’s Feet Commons has been noticing a pretty ugly trend with drug debris, and the owner has been pretty verbal about it. We appreciate this kind of civic engagement, and we like the beverage choices at Crow’s Feet Commons. Our four-legged friends appreciate the outdoor seating, the nearby benches filled with new friends to sniff, and the park-adjacent location.

GoodLife Brewing Company— 70 SW Century Dr., Bend. Monday-Friday 3-6pm, Thursday 11am-midnight. It’s a dog-gone good day when the name of the business matches the mood.

GoodLife Brewing features a (mostly) closed-in yard with fluffy grass to frolic on and lots of outdoor seating. Humans and hounds alike can enjoy the outdoors here.

Note: Be sure to bring a bag for, *cough,* litter. It’s gross to step in, or smell, or see, or talk about, or write about. More drinking venues will be willing to offer more dog-friendly boozing if they know they won’t have to worry about this poop-ticular problem. The gorgeous summer weather means these woof-welcoming spots will be particularly popular, so keep a close eye on your dog’s “business.” SW

With its healthful ingredients, Dawg Grog can be a dog's best friend. Photo by Kevin Gifford.

Daniel Keeton is a busy man. In addition to brewing for Boneyard Beer—helping produce the RPM IPA that keeps the Pacific Northwest running—he’s been operating Dawg Grog for the past four years, ensuring that dogs across the USA can safely enjoy the miracles of fermentation with their human companions.

100% vegetarian brew.

“Starting the business took some time to organize and get going,” Keeton says. “It was the idea first; then came the research and development into what’s good and what’s not good for dogs to consume.

This led me to search out healthy vegetarian products used to make up Dawg Grog.”

Since debuting on Boneyard’s taproom counter in 2012, Dawg Grog has grown to the point where it’s available across Oregon and Washington, with some distribution going as far away as Houston and Philadelphia. “Distribution has had its ups and downs,” Keeton says.

“Response has been positive but there is a lot of work still to do in educating the consumer as to how Dawg Grog can benefit their dog’s health and well-being.

So far I have not come across too many products similar to mine; there are a few, and I would suspect the popularity to gain momentum as the craft beer craze grows.” SW

There might be a certain frat-kid contingent of the populace who thinks getting their pets drunk is hilarious, but it’s not so great an idea for them. Hops, in fact, can be lethal to dogs, with many poisoning cases caused by homebrewers leaving their spent grain/hop mixture in an accessible location. To avoid that issue, Dawg Grog is based on brewer’s wort—the alcohol-free mixture of malt and water made as part of the beer-making process. To this Keeton adds canine-specific glucosamine and a mix of 72 trace mineral products, producing a

“The access to Boneyard’s wort is a big plus,” Keeton notes. “I’m able to use any and all of the excess that I want. Because Boneyard is brewing so often now, Dawg Grog barely puts a dent in consuming the waste product, but I would like to change that and ramp up production.”

Space Oddity

"Star Trek" soars beyond its galaxy

By Jared Rasic 41 VOLUME 20 ISSUE 30 / July 28, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

Boldly going where JJ Abrams has gone a couple of times before.

T

he Star Trek franchise has learned a valuable lesson in the three years since “Star Trek Into Darkness.”

American and worldwide audiences want some fun in their science fiction blockbusters. There can be darkness and serious plot developments, but when everything comes across as joyless and dour, audiences and critics don’t respond quite as well.

“Star Trek Into Darkness” made almost half a billion in the box office and certified fresh on Rotten Tomatoes, but was seen by quite a few diehard “Star Trek” fans as being the absolute nadir of the “Star Trek” cinematic universe. While the film certainly had its problems, it was a fun ride at the movies, which is all the rebooted “Star Trek” movies have ever been.

Gene Roddenberry’s "Star Trek" launched in 1966, and since then, Ameri-

ca has only fallen deeper in love with the crew of the USS Enterprise. Roddenberry’s vision of the series was always one of peace, love and harmony. The series was a hopeful vision of the future where exploration and knowledge were the ideal, rather than war and domination.

While there were always fisticuffs and space battles through the “Star Trek” franchise (including “TNG,” “Voyager,” “Enterprise,” “Deep Space Nine” and the pre-reboot films), JJ Abrams’ vision was one of big budget explosions and sci-fi set pieces. “Into Darkness” even had Spock howling in rage while beating the hell out of a whitewashed Khan.

“Star Trek: Beyond” is a huge course correction. It takes a few lessons in fun from “Guardians of the Galaxy” and “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” and tells a fairly simple story well because of its great affinity for the characters. Writers

FILM EVENTS

Simon Pegg and Doug Jung truly love Kirk, Spock, McCoy, Uhura, Scotty, Sulu and Chekov, so their script fawns over the characters without adding much to them.

The film unspools like a big budget episode of the original series, with the crew answering a distress call, which leads them to an uncharted nebula and a villain who destroys the Enterprise. This splits the crew into three different groups, all searching for one another, and gives the movie a new way to play with the character dynamics. Most of the film is plot-driven, so a majority of the dialogue is exposition-based. But the pace is so quick and the performances so expertly dialed that it’s hard to complain.

This film also fixes thematic problems evident in the previous two films. The villain’s motivations are based on his unhappiness that peace has formed

throughout the galaxy. He is a soldier, and that is what makes sense to him, so a universe of treaties and compromises rubs him the wrong way. While “Beyond” is still very much a “Star Wars”-style “Star Trek” film, exploration, love and knowledge are once again the fabric of this universe.

Watching Anton Yelchin in one of his final screen roles makes the film more emotional than it would be otherwise, but “Beyond” is still a fun and exciting space adventure for people who aren’t purists of the original series. While the film doesn’t necessarily boldly go anywhere, the journey is a delightful one. SW "Star Trek: Beyond" Dir. Justin Lin Grade: B+ Now playing at Old Mill Stadium 16

Over the Garden Wall "Swiss Army Man" unfolds expertly

By Jared Rasic

WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / July 28, 2016 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

Daniel Radcliffe is very dead and very farty in "Swiss Army Man."

“S

wiss Army Man” came out of the Sundance Film Festival amid multiple walkouts, critically derided as Daniel Radcliffe’s farting corpse movie. I am happy to report that is EXACTLY what the movie is (among about two dozen other things) and it earns every second of its scatologically-obsessed running time. There are poops, farts, boners, masturbation jokes and just about every juvenile idea under the sun in this film, along with beautiful and somewhat profound ruminations on isolation, depression, body shaming, death and love.

The premise: Hank (Paul Dano) is stranded on a tiny desert island barely big enough for one man. He is in the process of hanging himself when Daniel Radcliffe’s dead body washes onto shore.

Hoping that Radcliffe is alive and he has someone to share the isolation with, Hank runs to the body and finds that Radcliffe is very much dead and farty.

So farty in fact that Hank ties a rope around him and rides him like a jet ski to another beach much closer to a city.

Here is where the movie gets weird.

(Because it wasn’t up to this point…)

During their first night on the new beach, Radcliffe’s bloated and discolored corpse starts speaking and it is curious about the state it finds itself in. The corpse’s name is Manny and is capable of helping Hank in many different ways, including storage of rainwater, lighting fires with his farts, chopping down trees and biting through rope. More importantly, Manny gives Hank a way to examine himself and his own relationship to humanity that he had never explored before.

Dano is the most likable he has been since “Little Miss Sunshine” and Radcliffe is astounding as Manny, who is like a child opening his eyes to the world for the first time. Watching him react through rigor mortis to everything Hank is teaching him is a beautiful and

heartwarming experience.

The actors’ chemistry makes “Swiss Army Man” more than Radcliffe’s farting corpse movie; it makes it one of the best films of the year.

Directors Daniel Scheinert and Daniel Kwan (aka The Daniels) bring a handmade aesthetic to the film that evokes the best of Michel Gondry, Spike Jonze and Terry Gilliam. The Daniels fill each frame with either gorgeous compositions or spectacular performances, leaving the experience of watching “Swiss Army Man” a joyous one.

The script (also by The Daniels) packs so much metaphor into a bizarre and simple story as to laugh at an audience trying to unpack everything after one viewing. The obvious main question is whether Manny is a magical farting corpse with superpowers, or if Hank is hallucinating because of starvation and dehydration. Some answers are given, but so many more are left up to the imagination. There are dozens of ways to interpret the events in the film and it’s not even a safe bet that multiple viewings would help shed light on any lingering questions.

“Swiss Army Man” is going to be divisive and the “general” movie-going public is going to hate the film for being too weird, in the same way they hated “The Lobster.” Still, the film isn’t just an alienating, weirdly childish exercise in bad taste—it’s also a profoundly truthful look at loneliness that feels like a warm blanket made of doubt. It is the best thing Kurt Vonnegut never wrote, and is simultaneously a 90-minute fart joke.

Aren’t we lucky to be alive?

"Ice Age: Collision Course""

FILM SHORTS By Jared Rasic

comedy/action flick starring The Rock and Kevin Hart seems like something that should have existed years ago. Kevin Hart plays a regular Joe who gets sucked into an old high school friend’s current spy lifestyle. Even in the very worst of movies, The Rock is always worth watching. Combining his oversized charisma with Kevin Hart’s unhinged energy should hopefully make for a comedy classic.

FINDING DORY: Pixar waited 13 years to release a sequel to one if its most beloved films, so we can only hope it will reach the original’s greatness. With “Cars 2,” Pixar proved it wasn’t infallible when it came to their sequels, but after last year’s masterpiece “Inside Out,” it seems like they’re on a bit of a creative hot streak. Let’s hope it will be more than just “cute” and reach the emotional highs of “Inside Out,” “Toy Story 3” and “Up.” Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX GHOSTBUSTERS: It’s finally here, the movie that has made sexist man-children across the nation angry for the last six months. If a movie, any movie, can ruin your childhood just because it exists, maybe it was a bad childhood in general. This re-boot of the Bill Murray/Dan Aykroyd classic sees Kristen Wiig, Melissa McCarthy, Kate McKinnon and Leslie Jones team up to fight ghosts in Manhattan. The movie will sink or swim on its own merits, not because it’s a remake or because it’s women taking over. Judging from the advance reviews, there’s good and bad to be had. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX ICE AGE: COLLISION COURSE: This fifth entry in the “Ice Age” franchise follows Manny, Sid, Diego, Ellie, Scrat and the rest of the crew as they deal with an asteroid shower. Based on history, you might expect the “Ice Age” crew won’t have a happy ending, but with “Ice Age 6” announced, we can breathe easy knowing that they won’t be going extinct quite yet. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX LIGHTS OUT: This is being hailed as one of the best horror films of 2016 for the simple reason that it is actually scary. A ghost/demon that can only be seen in the dark starts stalking a family in disturbing and escalating ways. The film also has a lot to say about mental illness and familial relationships. It does work best as a jump-delivery system, so those with heart trouble should avoid this one. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

MAGGIE’S PLAN: The always excellent Greta Gerwig plays Maggie, a young woman who steals a volatile older writer from his wife of many years. After spending three years with him, she has fallen out of love and decided maybe he was perfect for his ex-wife in the first place. Thus, she hatches her plan to reunite the two and escape her loveless existence. This is a modern deconstruction of the typical romantic comedy triangle film, sure to please purists and casual filmgoers alike. Tin Pan Theater STAR TREK: BEYOND: This “Star Trek” movie manages to be fun and thought-provoking at the same time. “Beyond” plays like a two-hour episode of the TV show, as the crew is split up and forced to fight a new alien menace determined to destroy them all.

Even with moments of darkness, Justin Lin’s direction keeps the film fast-paced and fluid,

making this easily the most enjoyable film of the franchise so far. See full review, p 41. Old Mill Stadium 16

SWISS ARMY MAN: This movie is, without a doubt, the most profoundly touching 90-minute-long fart joke you will ever see.

Daniel Radcliffe plays a bloated corpse who washes up on a desert island just in time to rescue Paul Dano from his suicidal ennui.

Their blossoming friendship makes for one of the strangest, most profane and disturbing comedies of the last several years. See it with someone you love. See full review, p 42. Tin Pan Theater

THE BFG: The trailers for this aren’t exactly mind-blowing, but if anyone deserves our benefit of the doubt, it’s Steven Spielberg.

Based on the beloved novel by Roald Dahl, The BFG tells the story of a young girl and her adventures with a big, friendly giant. The book was surprisingly dark for a children’s novel, so hopefully the film finds a tonal balance between the seriousness of some of the subject matter and the lightheartedness Spielberg has been bringing to his films over the last decade. Either way, the film will be a visual marvel. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

THE INFILTRATOR: This movie is based on the true story of a U.S. Customs agent who goes undercover in a drug laundering scheme involving Pablo Escobar. The reviews are bleak, but the idea of Walter White going up against Escobar seems rife with excitement.

Apparently the film plays fast and loose with the facts, and the film looks incredibly ugly, but with Bryan Cranston, Joseph Gilgun, John Leguizamo, Amy Ryan, Jason Isaacs and Benjamin Bratt in the cast, how can it miss? This one is a cautious recommendation. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX THE LEGEND OF TARZAN: The timing for this film isn’t the best, as most of the marketing campaign is focusing on women as damsels in distress and Tarzan as a white savior helping the indigenous. Director David Yates knocked the last few “Harry Potter” movies out of the park, so hopefully his experienced eye will also bring some subtlety to a story that might not play very well in 2016.

If the film is entertaining as a goofy throwback, then hopefully it won’t play as culturally insensitive or too old-fashioned. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

THE PURGE: ELECTION YEAR: The third film in the series of fun action/horror flicks where for 12 hours once a year, all crime is legal. The original was a home invasion flick.

The sequel showed the action on the streets, and “Election Year” should delve fully into violent political satire. Hopefully, the film will subtly take the current political climate to task without fully delving into preachy commentary. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX THE SECRET LIFE OF PETS: Even though the film looks chock full of cute animals and family-friendly shenanigans, the real draw here is Louis C.K. doing the voice of the main canine. Hopefully, his unique blend of self-deprecation and hope shines through and isn’t completely overshadowed by poop jokes and inane set pieces. This animated film is going to make all of the money, regardless of quality, because every kid who saw “Finding Dory” in the theater saw the preview for this and is already ridiculously excited.

Wanderlust’s cave tours packed with science, adventure

45

Gartzke is a self-professed “rock jock” with a background in geology, so our tour was filled with facts about mineralization, volcanic ash, night vision, cavern acoustics, temperature control, and cave ecosystems and wildlife. He even convinced me to eat an ant that tasted like an orange—albeit a tiny, crunchy, squirming orange. It was like a middle school field trip without the homework afterward.

A safe and fun adventure

T

his summer, intrepid explorers can add one more environment to their local bucket list: Bend’s underground.

Wanderlust Tours is offering lava tube cave tours, taking visitors deep beneath the high desert to explore a cavernous world. Tourists can visit Skeleton Cave or Boyd Cave, two distinct caverns that exemplify the common features of lava caves.

Jeff Gartzke, the company’s chief operating office, said the caves provide plenty of opportunities for discovery.

He said, “However many hundred times I’ve been down (for a tour), every time I go into the cave, there’s something that makes me say, ‘Oh, I’ve never seen that before,’ ‘I’ve never noticed this,’ or ‘How the heck did this happen?’”

Gartzke is also one of the company’s naturalist guides, and I was able to join him and a small group for an informative—and sometimes heart-racing— tour of Skeleton Cave.

Science in the dark As we broke off of Highway 97, about 20 minutes outside of town, Gartzke was already dispelling the popular image of cave tours.

“What most people think of when they think of cave tours are ‘show caves’ where they’ve installed lights, paths and guard rails so they can pump five or six tours through a day,” he said. “Skeleton Cave is a wild cave, which means no electricity, no man-made paths. It’s practically untouched.”

In fact, the only human additions were found at the entrance: a steep staircase and a bat gate. The stairs granted us

access to the cave’s mouth at the bottom of a 20-ish-foot hole. The bat gate, a set of rusty, horizontal bars, blocked the entrance with just enough space for the bats to squeeze through. Luckily, Gartzkehad a special key to let us in.

As we entered the “twilight zone”— the slim area where the last slivers of natural light fall to total darkness—I was surprised by how smooth and dark the cave walls were. There were no rock spikes hanging from the ceiling, or bright colors reflecting the artificial light from my headlamp.

“Limestone caves have a lot of moisture, so inside those you’ll see a lot of stalagmites (rock protruding from the ground) and stalactites (from the ceiling) and more yellows and reds,” he explained. “Skeleton and most of the caves in Central Oregon are composed of basalt rock, which you only get from lava.”

That lava was provided by Newberry Volcano, just southeast of Bend, thousands of years ago. As the volcano erupted, its lava flow stretched hundreds of miles across the region, creating slow-moving rivers of lava.

When all that lava started cooling, it formed hundreds of lava tubes, including Skeleton Cave.

I know all this thanks to Gartzke and his naturalist training, an important aspect of Wanderlust’s tours.

According to Gartzke, “All of our guides at Wanderlust have their own areas of expertise. What makes our company unique is that you can take the same tour twice, and if you get a different guide, you’re going to get a really different tour.”

While the educational moments are a nice bonus, the main goal of Gartzke and his fellow Wanderlust guides is to provide an experience that is safe for both the visitors and the location.

Wanderlust is the only company permitted to visit Skeleton and Boyd, a responsibility they take seriously.

“Cave ecosystems are extremely delicate, so it’s important we don’t bring in any outside, man-made elements that could throw it off,” he explained.

Groups are asked to bring only water for the one to two-hour tours, and are encouraged to wash their clothes before and after so as to not spread fungi to other caves.

Wanderlust provides helmets and headlamps. And while our path through Skeleton Cave required stamina and careful movement in certain spots, it was always manageable for everyone.

Gartzke said, “We want that 7-yearold to be able to go caving with their 84-year-old grandmother, and make it a trip that’s approachable to both of them.”

Our group hiked 2,000 feet into the cave before we turned back. As we returned to the bright, hot surface, I already felt the urge to go back in.

There were paths that I still wanted to explore, and there was more that I wanted to learn. For the team at Wanderlust, that’s a marker of success.

“Naturalism is the constant quest for knowledge,” said Gartzke. “I want people to be talking about our cave trip one year later—10 years later—as just really being a memorable experience. I try to make that happen every time.” SW Wanderlust’s Lava Tube Cave Tours are scheduled daily at 9am and 1:30pm, and must be booked 48 hours in advance. Tours cost $75 for adults, and $55 for children 11 and under. For more information, visit wanderlusttours.com or call 541-389-8359.

Natural World

Quite possibly the creepiest bug you've ever seen

By Jim Anderson

WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / July 28, 2016 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

46 of these beautiful creatures: Biologically, they’re connected to a huge race of Stenopelmatinae that indeed live all over New Zealand, and also South America.

With that in mind, I think we can then see a very strong possibility that the weta of South America have, over the millennia, migrated from, say, Chile and Argentina, north to the Panama isthmuses into Mexico and thusly into the Northwest area of our good old U.S. of A. You have to admit, that would take a whale of a lot of time and it would be quite a swim for them from New Zealand. Whoops, that won’t work; weta can’t swim, and we all know there are a really big bunch of hungry reptiles, fish, birds and mammals in the ocean between Chile and New Zealand. So, how did they get here? Did they travel with the Maori who it has been said got here on bamboo boats? Maybe.

How about parallel evolution? Could they have evolved here in the Americas over time? Maybe.

But how about this: What if they first arrived here when Gondwanaland started drifting? Gondwana, also called Gondwanaland, was an ancient supercontinent that incorporated present-day South America, Africa, Arabia, Madagascar, India, Australia and Antarctica.

A Jerusalem Cricket being hauled off in the back of a toy truck. Photos by Jim Anderson.

R

ight here in our very own backyard —quite literally—is the strangest insect we will ever see: The Jerusalem Cricket (Stenopelmatus fuscus).

There are also several English names I’ve heard, but most can’t be used in this article because they’re best interpreted as: “What in the @#$% is that thing?!”

However, to begin with, it’s not a cricket, and has nothing whatsoever to do with Jerusalem. (How it got that name is as baffling as how it got here.) It really belongs in a large group of insects known as Stenopelmatinae (don’t let the name throw you, it’s pronounced Sten-op-elmay-tin-aa-ee) that live in New Zealand —yes, New Zealand—and that’s just the beginning of a wonderful conundrum, for me anyway.

We also have to stop calling them “crickets,” because they ain’t. They are biologically known as weta (“wet-ah,” a word from the Maori language, where singular and plural have the same form.)

Got all that?

Because of its human-like head, and because it’s found throughout the North and Southwest, there are several Navajo names referring to it as: c’ic’in lici or “red-skull,” Chʼosh bitsiitsʼiin łichí'í or “red-skull bug,” Tsiits'iin łichí'ítsoh or “big red-skull,” and Wóó tsiits'iin/Yaa' tsiits'iiní or “skull insect.”

One night when I was pussy-footin’ around looking for villains stealing gas from our equipment, I heard a very strange hissing, vibrating sound. When I looked toward the sound there was this weird insect I’d never seen before in my whole life: red-headed and human-like, glaring at me! No wonder most people when seeing them for the first time flip out! It was a male weta making a drumming/hissing sound by rubbing its abdomen on the ground.

To make it more fun, the Hopi People know it as, qalatötö or “shiny bug.” In Mexico it’s known as niño de la tierra or “earth child” and cara de niño or “child’s face.”

I first became aware of this beautiful insect while living in Bend back in the 50s.

I was a powder monkey for Bill Miller in his pumice mines west of Bend (where William E. Miller School stands today).

Weta are not poisonous or venomous; even if they were, they do not possess a method of getting it into a body of another animal. Yes, they can bite—and if you’re handling one you may discover how painful it can be—but if the skin is broken the only thing that can happen after that is some kind of infection from what was between you and said bite.

They do not, nor ever have wings. But, that said, they do go flying frequently on summer nights…in the jaws of big brown bats and hoary bats. It just so happens that there’s a great deal of excellent weta habitat throughout this neck of the woods.

Apparently, migrating big brown and hoary bats have found these fat, little six-legged insects delicious -- barring the legs and heads. It is not uncommon for residents of Central Oregon to find weta heads and legs along with bat guano and urine on the porches and walls of their homes. If you don’t like finding such attractive weta body parts and body excrement on your porch, call me, I have a non-violent cure that I think works.

Now for another wondrous conundrum

Some 600 million years ago, the first stage of its breakup began. About 180 million years ago it sort of slowed down to where things are today. The matching shapes of the coastlines of western Africa and eastern South America fit, and the concept that all of the continents of the Southern Hemisphere were once joined together was set forth in detail by a German meteorologist in 1912. He envisioned a single great landmass, with Pangaea and Gondwana comprising the southern half of this supercontinent.

The concept of Gondwana was widely accepted by scientists from the Southern Hemisphere, and when the theory of plate tectonics demonstrated that the ocean basins are not permanent global features, everything fell into place, (pun intended).

That explains why weta are found in South America today—they came along for the ride, and why we have them here in our homeland, but, boy, are they old.

I guess they got here when Reub Long did, when the Sun was a tiny thing, there weren’t no Moon, and the Big Dipper was a tiny drinkin’ cup…. SW

Investing IRA Funds in Real Estate: Better for Stock Market Newbies?

Since many people have some experience in real estate investing (having bought or sold a home) they tend to have a better understanding of real estate investment as opposed to financial securities. The idea is that if you understand real estate better than the stock market, you may have a better return investing in something you understand.

The problem in the past was that it was difficult to find a custodian for the real estate. Not so much anymore. A recent Internet search of “real estate IRA” showed that there are quite a few companies offering advice about the rules, along with some online seminars.

There are strict IRS rules on investment of IRA funds. For example, there are prohibitions against purchasing properties that provide a benefit to the IRA holder or their lineal descendants. This

means that you cannot purchase a property for yourself or lineal descendants to occupy or rent. The idea is that the real estate purchased is an investment owned by the IRA—which is a separate entity—and all income and expense for that property goes to the IRA. Upon the sale, the proceeds go back to the IRA. It is also possible to form a single-member or multiple-member LLC in which the IRA invests. This allows the client to control the LLC, and they can choose to perform all the administrative tasks or hire a property manager. When the property is sold, the LLC can be dissolved and funds are transferred back to the IRA. The income earned will be tax deferred or tax free, depending on the type of IRA. It can also be a great way to avoid capital gains.

The self-directed real estate IRA provides some interesting options, particularly for real estate professionals and for people who have a better understanding of real estate than the stock market.

Still, it’s very important to have good financial and legal advice so you can avoid getting in trouble with the IRS. This author is not a legal or financial expert, and this is not meant to provide legal or financial advice. Instead, the intent is to bring awareness to this option for those desiring to pursue real estate investment with IRA funds. SW

ADVICE GODDESS People Who Needle People

—Banterer Yesterday, on the phone with my boyfriend, I had to ask him to repeat something he’d just said because I’d become briefly mesmerized by a big fern shimmying in the breeze. No, sadly, I wasn’t all “Sorry, I missed that bit because my couch caught fire.” The man was competing for my attention with a plant.

It isn’t that he’s boring. I have ADHD— attention-defici…sorry, what was I saying?

And in our relationship, as in yours, teasing plays a big role. So when my boyfriend has something important to tell me, he’ll sometimes prepare me (with a line that always makes me laugh): “Do I have your divided attention?”

Teasing like this is what social psychologist Dacher Keltner calls an “indirect, playful way to negotiate conflict.” This is especially important in a relationship, where there are many conflicts and annoyances you’ll never resolve. In mine, for example, in addition to my midsentence day trips to the Baltics, there’s how my boyfriend seems to have attended the Jackson Pollock school of culinary arts. Or, as I put it—while cupping an ear theatrically and looking upward: “What’s that?…Um… honey, the ceiling says it ordered its sauce on the side.”

Teasing is like bullying, Keltner explains— in that it’s something you say or do that’s intended to provoke another person.

However, teasing includes clues that what you’re saying isn’t to be taken literally— and that your intent is playful, not hurtful.

These playfulness signals are called “off-record markers” and include laughter, obvious exaggeration, a jokey tone, mimicry, and contorted facial expressions.

As for the concern that your teasing is endangering your relationship, on the contrary, Keltner and his colleagues found that “couples who playfully teased, as opposed to resorting to direct, cogent, but ultimately hackle-raising criticism, felt more connected after (a) conflict and trusted their partners more.”

51 VOLUME 20 ISSUE 30 / July 28, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

A female friend overheard me on the phone with my boyfriend and became concerned. He and I tease each other relentlessly, calling each other mean silly names, but it’s all in fun. Though we have a very loving relationship, she thinks the teasing is a sign of submerged anger. Is she right? And are we doing something damaging?

be for real. Conspicuous consumption is an example—signaling that you’ve got money to burn by shelling out $8K for a Rolex when a $50 Swatch tells the time just fine. So, sure, there are many ways to express romantic appreciation, but it’s nice to opt for something unique, like “What a wonderful love note—made all the sweeter by handwriting that looks like that of an 8-year-old locked up after multiple disappearances of neighborhood pets.”

Splendor In The Crash My boyfriend recently got laid off and lost a bunch of money in stocks. Yesterday, feeling blue, he said, “Can’t anything good happen for me?” (Gee, thanks.

Guess I’m nothing good.) I know he’s talking about financial and career stuff, but we have something pretty special together. Why is he focusing on the bad stuff and not appreciating the good?

Money isn’t everything.

—Undervalued A guy likes to have a way to buy his woman dinner that doesn’t involve a ski mask and a sawed-off shotgun.

No, money isn’t everything, but that can be difficult to remember while panicking that you’ll soon be raiding the market share of the wino on the corner begging for change. Also, because women evolved to go for men with status (a cue for the ability to provide) and men coevolved to recognize this, it can be especially hard on a man when his career trajectory goes from riches to rags.

A Phone Company That

ACTUALLY Picks Up?

However, emotions are—at root—behavior management tools, and the feel-bad that comes with a loss in status pushes a man to go out and get a new job and make new investments. Without that motivation, that couch in Grandma’s basement can start looking like an extremely attractive place to be from 9 to 5. And 5 to 9: “Yo, Gram, can you throw down another bag of Doritos?”

What you can do is be fierce in telling your boyfriend why you believe in him and about all the things you respect and admire in him (especially those that employers will also respect and admire).

This is the sort of “appreciating the good” that he needs—2especially if he gets to the point where he’s driving a brand-new Tesla but only until he gets a $2 tip for bringing it back to the guy who owns it.

That’s Totally OFF the HOOK! What’s up with business phone providers that make you talk to a robot or wait on hold forever?

And the reality is that only two people who truly love each other can get away with trash-talking each other in extravagantly awful ways. This is an example of what behavioral ecologists call a “costly signal”—one that, through its expense or riskiness, tells you it’s more likely to

Shouldn’t a phone company know how to answer the phone?

ASTROLOGY

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): You have just begun your big test. How are you doing so far?

According to my analysis, the preliminary signs suggest that you have a good chance of proving the old maxim, “If it doesn’t make you so crazy that you put your clothes on inside-out and try to kiss the sky until you cry, it will help you win one of your biggest arguments with Life.”

In fact, I suspect we will ultimately see you undergo at least one miraculous and certifiably melodramatic transformation. A wart on your attitude could dissolve, for example. A luminous visitation may heal one of your blind spots. You might find a satisfactory substitute for kissing the sky.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): For many years, my occupation was “starving artist.” I focused on improving my skills as a writer and musician, even though those activities rarely earned me any money. To ensure my survival, I worked as little as necessary at low-end jobs—scrubbing dishes at restaurants, digging ditches for construction companies, delivering newspapers in the middle of the night, and volunteering for medical experiments. During the long hours spent doing tasks that had little meaning to me, I worked diligently to remain upbeat.

One trick that worked well was imagining future scenes when I would be engaged in exciting creative work that paid me a decent wage. It took a while, but eventually those visions materialized in my actual life. I urge you to try this strategy in the coming months, Libra. Harness your mind’s eye in the service of generating the destiny you want to inhabit.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You have every right to celebrate your own personal Independence Day sometime soon. In fact, given the current astrological omens, you’d be justified in embarking on a full-scale emancipation spree in the coming weeks. It will be prime time to seize more freedom and declare more autonomy and build more self-sufficiency. Here’s an important nuance to the work you have ahead of you: Make sure you escape the tyranny of not just the people and institutions that limit your sovereignty, but also the voices in your own head that tend to hinder your flow.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Of all the forbidden fruits that you fantasize about, which one is your favorite? Among the intriguing places you consider to be outside of your comfort zone, which might inspire you to redefine the meaning of “comfort”? The coming weeks will be a favorable time to reconfigure your relationship with these potential catalysts. And while you’re out on the frontier dreaming of fun experiments, you might also want to flirt with other wild cards and strange attractors. Life is in the mood to tickle you with useful surprises.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You have a special talent for accessing wise innocence. In some ways you’re virginal, fresh, and raw, and in other ways you’re mature, seasoned, and well-developed. I hope you will regard this not as a confusing paradox but rather as an exotic strength. With your inner child and your inner mentor working in tandem, you could accomplish heroic feats of healing. Their brilliant collaboration could also lead to the mending of an old rift.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): “Where is everybody when I need them?” Even if you hav-

en’t actually spoken those words recently, I’m guessing the voices in your head have whispered them. But from what I can tell, that complaint will soon be irrelevant. It will no longer match reality. Your allies will start offering more help and resources. They may not be perfectly conscientious in figuring out how to be of service, but they’ll be pretty good. Here’s what you can do to encourage optimal results: 1. Purge your low, outmoded expectations. 2. Open your mind and heart to the possibility that people can change. 3. Humbly ask—out loud, not just in the privacy of your imagination—for precisely what you want.

Be kind to your body this summer.

Hydrate with High Desert Hydrotherapy!

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Millions of Pisceans less fortunate than you won’t read this horoscope. Uninformed about the rocky patch of Yellow Brick Road that lies just ahead, they may blow a gasket or get a flat tire. You, on the other hand, will benefit from my oracular foreshadowing, as well as my inside connections with the Lords of Funky Karma. You will therefore be likely to drive with relaxed caution, keeping your vehicle unmarred in the process.

That’s why I’m predicting that although you may not arrive speedily at the next leg of your trip, you will do so safely and in style.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Free your body.

TAURUS (April 20May 20): The people of many cultures have imagined the sun god as possessing masculine qualities. But in some traditions, the Mighty Father is incomplete without the revitalizing energies of the Divine Mother. The Maoris, for example, believe that every night the solar deity has to marinate in her nourishing uterine bath. Otherwise he wouldn’t be strong enough to rise in the morning. And how does this apply to you? Well, you currently have resemblances to the weary old sun as it dips below the horizon. I suspect it’s time to recharge your powers through an extended immersion in the deep, dark waters of the primal feminine.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): An Interesting Opportunity is definitely in your vicinity. It may slink tantalizingly close to you in the coming days, even whisper your name from afar. But I doubt that it will knock on your door. It probably won’t call you seven times on the phone or flash you a big smile or send you an engraved invitation. So you should make yourself alert for the Interesting Opportunity’s unobtrusive behavior. It could be a bit shy or secretive or modest. Once you notice it, you may have to come on strong—you know, talk to it sweetly or ply it with treats.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): [Editor’s note: The counsel offered in the following oracle was channeled from the Goddess by Rob Brezsny.

If you have any problems with it, direct your protests to the Queen Wow, not Brezsny.] It’s time to get more earthy and practical about practicing your high ideals and spiritual values. Translate your loftiest intentions into your most intimate behavior. Ask yourself, “How does Goddess want me to respond when my co-worker pisses me off?”, or “How would Goddess like me to brush my teeth and watch TV and make love?” For extra credit, get a t-shirt that says, “Goddess was my co-pilot, but we crash-landed in the wilderness and I was forced to eat her.”

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Be alert for white feathers gliding on the wind. Before eating potato chips, examine each one to see if it bears a likeness of Rihanna or the Virgin Mary. Keep an eye out, too, for portents like robots wearing dreadlocked wigs or antique gold buttons lying in the gutter or senior citizens cursing at invisible Martians. The appearance of anomalies like these will be omens that suggest you will soon be the recipient of crazy good fortune. But if you would rather not wait around for chance events to trigger your good luck, simply make it your fierce intention to generate it. Use your optimism-fueled willpower and your flair for creative improvisation. You will have abundant access to these talents in the coming weeks.

Web: www.greenearthmedicine.com Exercise can give dogs the same rush as humans -- but the pot option for dogs doesn't get them high.

M

any Benditos are familiar with “runner’s high,” the feeling of euphoria that people experience after intense exercise. Runner’s high is caused by the brain releasing endocannabinoids into the blood stream. That six-syllable term is a portmanteau of “endogenous,” meaning “coming from within” and “cannabanoids,” meaning “chemical compounds of the cannabis plant.”

Yes, the human brain actually makes some of the same chemicals that are in cannabis and that cause the “high” experienced from smoking or eating marijuana. This may also help Benditos understand why the same crazy dudes who get such a rush from shredding Bachelor are also smoking bowls at the top of their run.

Now research published in the Journal of Experimental Biology shows that man’s best friend not only has endocannabanoid receptors in her little doggie brain, but she also experiences the same elevated levels of endocannabanoids after exercise. In other words, it is possible to get high with your dog—and all those folks running the trails with their canine companions are doing just that. That blinking, panting smile your dog gives you after you return from the dog park?

Yes, your dog is blissing out on some sweet endogenous cannabanoids.

But you must never give your dog (or cat) the stuff you bought at the dispensary! The exogenous (external) cannabanoids sold in smokable or edible forms are simply not appropriate for dogs. One local veterinarian told Smoke Signals that visits to the doggie ER are up for chow hounds who have accidentally ingested cannabis, usually by eating edibles left out by their irresponsible humans.

What’s worse is that people are often reluctant to admit the probable cause

of the problem to their vet, and the symptoms of eating too much cannabis mirror the effects of other, more serious doggie health problems. These are all good reasons to make sure the only cannabinoids your dog gets are the kind he gets naturally from running and playing.

That said, there may be another amazing cannabis-related similarity between dogs and humans: Research has shown that a cannabidoil known as “CBD” may be effective at treating epilepsy, chronic pain, and other illnesses in humans.

CBD is non-psychoactive, meaning that it does not cause a “high.” And just as many desperately ill people have turned to CBD when nothing else worked, people are now giving CBD to their dogs (and cats) and reporting the same positive results.

For example, local pet supply store Bend Pet Express sells CBD treats and oil made by a company called Pet Releaf.

Owner Kim McCohan says they did a great deal of research to find a safe and effective product that can be used with both dogs and cats. Pet Releaf says its CBD oil is made from organically-grown hemp and is extracted with CO2 to ensure high bioavailability. And McCohan says that dog and cat owners who have tried the Pet Releaf products for pain control, seizure relief, and some other conditions, have overwhelmingly reported improvements in their pets’ conditions.

But the state of CBD science with dogs and cats is even worse than with humans, also suffering from the federal government’s ban on cannabis-related research. Most people will do almost anything to help their kitties and dogfriends in distress, but it may be a good idea to consult with your vet before giving them anything you hope will treat a medical problem.
