OPINION

Yes, it was hectic. But it was worth every second.

ere on the light side of the sun again, we can stop and reflect for a moment about what just happened. Some people got stuck in some traffic. An RV toppled over near Madras. A few cars broke down. Some restaurants may have over-prepared. In the grand scheme of things, the apoc-ecliptic predictions for what could have happened over the eclipse weekend were largely overblown. That’s not a bad problem to have. If it’s a reflection of an overprepared team of law enforcement and public safety officials in our community, that’s something we should want. As we reported, the Oregon Department of Transportation executed what it’s calling one of the largest “pre-emptive deployment exercises” it’s ever undergone in order to keep people informed on the roads, and like them, we’re happy with what came out of it. Had they not “over-prepared,” it might really have taken 12 hours to get from Bend to Madras. We’d far rather have over-preparedness over total chaos—and

especially when the scenario involves hoards of people who don’t know the area or the emergency mechanisms in place around them. In short, anyone who decried the fact that the media or public safety officials were “overdoing it” in terms of their messaging is wrong, because that preparation meant that on this side of the Big Event, we’re all largely intact. Our community—and yes, much of our state and much of the nation, just went through a collective experience that could have brought much chaos, immense trial and even peril. But it didn’t. And let’s remember that Mother Nature also just put on one dang fine show. The traffic, the preparations, the stocking up… they were all a prelude to an event that many of us may never see again in our lives. In other words, the hoopla was 100 percent worth it. Whether you saw one minute of totality or the full two and a half, it was worth every second. SW

In last week’s story, “Bend State Rep. Knute Buehler Announces Run for Governor” (8/16) we listed campaign finance amounts for both Gov. Kate Brown and Buehler, but the amounts we reported for Buehler counted past campaign contributions into the total. We regret the error.

ECLIPSE HYPE

@rosslipson captured a stunning view of the eclipse from Redmond this past Monday. Tag @sourceweekly to be featured here in Lightmeter.

IN RESPONSE TO, BEND STATE REP. KNUTE BUEHLER ANNOUNCES RUN FOR GOVERNOR (8/16) Oregon needs an opposition party —it’s unhealthy (see: Kansas) to have one party running everything and a moderate Republican could be a positive thing. Were things different, with, say, Hillary as president, maybe, but as things stand, I think I’d stick with Kate. — David N. Welton, via facebook.com Knute is a DOCTOR who voted AGAINST authorizing courts to prohibit suicidal individuals from owning guns and AGAINST requiring coverage for abortions and contraceptives. These are not logical positions for anyone to take, much less a doctor. Knute does not have the best interests of Oregonians in mind. — Michelle Poirot, via facebook.com

MIRROR POND, TO DREDGE OR NOT TO DREDGE (8/16) I need to put in a patio in my backyard and change the irrigation around. Can I ask the City to pay for that too? No? Then dredge your own pond. — Paul Moriarty, via facebook.com I’d be fine paying for the dredging if they’d hand over the land to the City of Bend or the Park and Recreation District. — Jim Vernon, via facebook.com Take the dam out! It’s going to happen eventually anyways so just get it over with. — Justin Patino Sayers, via facebook.com

Remove dam, repair riparian area, return river to a river. — Lisa Bagwell, via facebook.com I’d like to know who paid the taxes for that land under the pond for all these years. — Steve Langenderfer, via facebook.com I am surprised at the comments to remove the dam. That will remove Mirror Pond, which is so beautiful. Here is a bit of history — “Bend will have electric lights in the near future. A. M. Drake has fully decided to put in a dam and power plant and will supply the town with the long desired electric system,” the Bend Bulletin reported in 1910. The decision was made to dam the river and bring power to Bend. Later in the year the paper gave us: “A remarkably beautiful pond will result from the dam’s completion, which, situated directly beside the town, will add a notable feature to Bend’s list of attractions.” I moved to Bend in 1975 and have enjoyed Mirror Pond all these years and will be sad to see it go if the dam is removed. In years past, the river has just been dredged. I say, just dredge it again and leave the pond. — Linda Neff McKissick, via facebook.com

LETTER OF THE WEEK

Kudos to you Mark for recognizing the hard work and sacrifice emergency workers have made these past few weeks. A total solar eclipse hasn’t been seen in nearly 40 years in the U.S. and one hasn’t swept the entire continent for more than 100 years — but let’s hope those who missed out this time will see the next one in 2024. Come in for you gift card to Palate! — Magdalena Bokowa, Assistant Editor. E.J. Pettinger’s

“The eclipse hype. I don’t get it. It will be darker for a few minutes. I saw the last one as a kid and it did not change my life.” This was written by a facebook “friend” recently. I pondered that thought on the way to the eclipse, getting out of bed this morning, earlier than I appreciated on a day off. We were driving to full totality to get the real deal, hoping that predicted traffic was only hype. I found myself feeling excited, as if anticipating the morning of Christmas as a child. What would be this experience, the eclipse? I had no preconceived notions, but for my “friend’s” opinion of what would be. We drive toward Prineville to find a spot roadside that encompasses totality, to unfold the lawn chairs in the back of the pickup, sip tea, wait for what is to come. “Minutes,” I think and question. Like the minutes of an orgasm, the final fruit of action, concise, satisfying. The few minutes the other night that I held a baby at a party, the smell of his infant breath on my cheek. The last minutes of a life before it is extinguished. The fleeting glance of an admirer, seconds. “Minutes,” he says. We watch the initial partial eclipse, drawn by the shift. There is a stillness in the air, the waiting, the coming. I am amazed that the light does not darken until the sun is almost entirely blocked. The power of the sun emerges, glimpsing behind the moon, still lighting our world. Our sun is gradually consumed by the moon. The light changes around us, the air cools remarkably, the shadows lengthen. In full totality, it is an eerie color, the color of the sun blotted by forest fire, the flat light in a storm. The crickets sing on cue. In those moments I feel so small in this great universe. And so lacking understanding of the cosmos beyond. It is a humble feeling, a graciousness. Then the diamond appears, and the light emerges, first on the right side of the moon, shining so brilliant, another dawn. We are given the gift of the sun once again. What a gift to experience this, those few minutes. I shall hope in my life that I will always hold a fascination for the unknown, new experiences, and the wonder of this amazing planet in which we are graced to spend time. For the fleeting “minutes” in a life are often the most precious, unexpected gifts. — Chris Teicheira

SIDE NOTES

Milli Fire Expands

Nena Springs Fire Evacuation Notices Lifted The Nena Springs fire on the Warm Springs Indian Reservation has not grown in size since Aug. 20, fire officials said Tuesday. That fire had grown to about 68,135 acres, and prompted evacuations at the Charley Canyon, South Junction, Culpus Bridge and Wolf Point subdivisions of Warm Springs. The Nena Springs fire is thought to be human-caused, but the cause is

still under investigation. With thunderstorms expected in the area midweek, fire crews are concerned that “dust devils” could throw some internal embers outside the containment lines. As crews continue to wrap up work on the fire, officials plan to divert resources elsewhere, to assist with other fires throughout the region.

Court Denies Appeal from PGE in Deschutes River Alliance Lawsuit The Deschutes River Alliance scored a victory in court last week in its lawsuit against Portland General Electric. The lawsuit, filed last year, alleges that PGE is violating some tenets of the Clean Water Act via its facility at the Pelton Round Butte Hydroelectric Project. In that suit, DRA alleges that PGE’s facility was responsible, at least in part, for elevated water temperatures and poor water quality in the Lower Deschutes, downriver from the PGE facility. This spring, Federal District Court Judge Michael H. Simon ruled in favor of DRA in the case. DRA Executive Director Jonah Sandford said the ruling affirmed “the right of citizens to enforce water quality violations at hydroelectric projects.” PGE appealed the judge’s decision, but last week the Ninth Circuit denied that appeal request, allowing the case to move forward. Sandford told the Source Weekly that the judge’s decision “sets important precedent for citizens and organizations around the country who are concerned about water quality in rivers impacted by hydroelectric projects.” SW

The Milli Fire near Sisters expanded over the Aug. 19-20 weekend to approximately 11,236 acres as of Tuesday morning. The fire, located about 9 miles west of Sisters, prompted evacuations of people in the Crossroads, Edgington/Remuda, Wildwing and Peterson Burn Road areas, as well as people along both sides of Three Creeks Road. In addition, areas including Black Butte Ranch and the area between Hwy. 242 and Hwy. 20 have gone under a Level 1 “Be Ready” evacuation notice. The fire, which fire officials say was lightning-caused, was about 23 percent contained as of Tuesday morning. Because of the wind patterns, crews fear that the fire could move east out of the wilderness areas and into more populated parts of the region. Thus far, officials say no structures have been destroyed in the fire. Several portions of the Deschutes National Forest and the Three Sisters Wilderness have been closed due to the fire and/or this week’s eclipse.

Smooth and Seamless Heavy eclipse planning pays off By Magdalena Bokowa

Bumper-to-Bumper “The biggest traffic event in Oregon history," as predicted by the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) didn’t quite come to pass as Oregonians and eclipse chasers heeded advice and staggered travel plans throughout the state — some canceling plans outright — according to ODOT. "The traffic wasn't as horrible as we perhaps thought it was going to be this morning,” said Thomas Fuller, an ODOT spokesperson, in an interview with the Oregonian. "There's been some talk about, 'Oh it was overhyped,' but I don't think so," Fuller said. "Had we not been really preparing, people preparing when to come, preparing their vehicles, keeping a watch out and us pre-placing a lot of equipment...I think it probably would've been a lot worse than this. This was about the best we can expect." Part of the prep began in June 2016 and included a strategy to post crews along critical travel routes. “Our primary objective in deploying crews along anticipated high volume routes is to keep traffic flowing during peak travel hours,” said ODOT District 10 Manager, Jim Scholtes. “This is one of the largest pre-emptive deployment exercises we have undertaken to date and we are pleased with the results.” While state highways saw more cars

7 the eclipse had finished, according to ODOT’s new Trip Check website. Some chasers, resisting pleas from Sgt. Nathan Garibay, the emergency manager for Deschutes County, parked on the side of highways to view the eclipse. Worried about congestion and possible fire hazards from hot exhaust pipes, Garibay had warned motorists of needlessly clogging roadways, though excited spectators were seen pulled over in shoulder areas, hoping to make a quick exit after the event. Heavy wildfire smoke that lingered a few days before the event and was near the path of totality, scared off some vacationers, with ODOT reporting they had heard anecdotal reports of many canceling their plans to the Central Oregon region. Meanwhile, the Madras Municipal Airport reported as many as 400 planes stuck in an airplane traffic jam on the landing strip — many of them small private aircrafts — backed up on the tarmac. Officials reported flights were departing on average every 3 minutes. Taking advantage of the large eclipse crowds, a man robbed the U.S. Bank in downtown Madras shortly before 2pm on Monday and fled into the surrounding area, according to Madras Police. Efforts to locate the man are being coordinated by local and federal police units. St. Charles Health System, prepped and over-staffed with an extra 40 travel nurses, canceled elective surgeries and rented extra supplies such as hospital beds to accomodate an expected influx of patients, that never materialized. At the Madras center, employees and patients were seen stepping out of the building or at windows, watching the eclipse.

Bl um

than average, ODOT reported that apart from some areas surrounding Madras and Salem, traffic flowed “relatively well.” Those motorists who did encounter difficulties were assisted by 21 traffic mitigation teams along U.S. Highway 97, stretching all the way from Shaniko to La Pine. Crews worked around the clock in areas such as Prineville and Mitchell to clear broken down vehicles from roadways, including one reported overturned motorhome which saw the closing of U.S. Highway 26 leading into the Symbiosis Eclipse Gathering held at Big Summit Prairie. On that route, a reported 70,000 festival attendees experienced delays of up to 12 hours from Prineville into the Ochocos — a 35-mile stretch that was backed up for 15 miles. Motorists were rerouted into a 90-mile detour with many sleeping in their cars as they awaited to enter the festival. The gathering was permitted for 35,000 attendees, however ODOT estimated at least 28,000 cars were at the event — hence an estimate of 70,000 people. Around the state, delays of 1-2 hours were reported, with the route from Redmond to Madras, usually only taking 30 minutes, taking 1.5 hours, according to the Central Oregon Emergency Information Network. Still, it was a far cry from rumors that the trip from Bend to Madras was going to take up to 12 hours. After watching the 2 minute, 2 second totality, revellers largely ignored ODOT’s advice of staying put with many hopping in their cars, instantly jamming U.S Hwy 97 in both north and south directions. Near Salem, Interstate 5 experienced bumper-to-bumper traffic even before

Oregon Experiences Clearest Skies Across Nation Most of Oregon, including Madras, Prineville and Salem, experienced nearly clear skies for the two minutes of totality with only parts of Depoe Bay experiencing cloud cover. It was reported by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's Weather Prediction Center (NOAA) to be one of the clearest spots in the nation. According to the Idaho Statesman, Boise, Idaho was also clear, while in Kansas City, Mo., viewers were met with disappointment when heavy cloud cover and rain obscured the eclipse, according to NOAA. Nashville, Tenn., also experienced blockages right at the start of totality, according to the Tennessean while South Carolina had a variety of weather patterns with some chasers experiencing clear skies and some rain. Traffic will likely be delayed between Madras and Redmond for the next day or so, ODOT’s Fuller said, and he urged drivers to be patient. The weeklong Symbiosis Gathering is due to finish on Wednesday, Aug. 23 and is expected to clog major transportation arteries further. "As these festivals let out, it's going to flood a bunch more people on Highway 97," Fuller said. "It's not a four-lane freeway. Folks are going to have to really take their time and be patient on Highway 97 for the coming days, really." SW

Warnings of severe traffic, calamity, fuel and food shortages never really materialized in Central Oregon during the Great American Eclipse on Aug. 21 — but sometimes it’s better to over-hype than be unprepared.

the Limit SOUND Sky’s Mystic Bowie brings the songs of the Talking Heads to life in reggae-driven band Talking Dreads By Anne Pick

13 VOLUME 21 ISSUE 34 / August 24, 2017 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

Tribute bands have been around about as long as popular music —and while some of them capture the true essence of the original music, others flounder. The best tribute bands take the original songs and truly make them their own. A love for the music and a desire to do the songs justice fuel the best tribute bands. Talking Dreads, a reggae-driven Talking Heads tribute band, and it's lead singer, Mystic Bowie have succeeded greatly.

“I

personally am a huge Talking Heads fan,” says Bowie. “I was hoping the Talking Heads would get back together, and when I realized that wasn’t going to happen, I figured, why not do it myself? Even a rebirth in a reggae style. So I reached out to the original members of the Talking Heads and they all said I should definitely do it.” Bowie had access to the original members of the Talking Heads as he has been a singer in their side project, Tom Tom Club. He even lived with Chris Franz and Tina Weymouth from the Talking Heads in Connecticut for a time. For Bowie, reggae and the songs of the Talking Heads form the perfect marriage. The Jamaican-born artist grew up doing reggae and also has an affinity for the Talking Heads. Citing a Caribbean influence in the Talking Heads rhythm section, Bowie knew that merging the storytelling of the Heads songs with reggae would lead to the perfect union. “Reggae music is like country music; it tells stories, every song there’s a story,” Bowie says. “Talking Heads songs, there’s a great poetry to them, there’s always a story to each song. For me, who, I compose, I produce reggae music, it was easy for me to pick up on what music would work best, what music would work as a marriage.” Speaking to Bowie, you can feel his love for this band and the songs they’ve contributed to the musical landscape. He can’t choose

a favorite song; it changes depending on his mood and state of mind. “What I love the most actually is to watch a lot of the Talking Heads fans come to these shows,” Bowie says. “Some of them will come because they are hardcore fans, they’ll come with reservations. Some come pre-judging it and then to watch them come up at the end of the show at the merchandise table, complimenting it and telling us, ‘Oh my god, you represented it so well, we’re big fans of Talking Dreads now,’ that’s the best part of performing this music.” Bowie has already started choosing the next set of Talking Heads songs to record for their next album. In addition to more covers, the next Talking Dreads album will include some of Bowie’s original songs. He wants to put his own art out there and feature his talent as a composer. “I would love to take Talking Dreads to the next level and make it the next big reggae band. That’s where I want to take it. I want to give it my all, I want to see it on the top, I want to see it at the Grammys. My aspirations and dreams for Talking Dreads — the sky’s the limit.” SW Talking Dreads

Milo’s latest album, “Who Told You To Think??!!?!?!?!” analyzes the tension between the two.

hen I first heard Milo, I instantly knew I wanted to talk with him. His eclectic hip-hop style reminded me of local rapper Mosley Wotta, but more experimental. Milo’s lyrics inspire fresh thought while his beats allow you to relax and chill or get up and dance. The way he manipulates sound and incorporates pop culture is inspiring. For those who may not usually find themselves listening to hiphop on a regular basis, Milo may sway your opinion of modern rap music. I’ll be honest, writing this story about Milo has been difficult. When I interviewed him, he said, “I don’t know,” on more than one occasion. Maybe I asked the wrong questions. Maybe he wasn’t in the mood to be interviewed at 10 am. Or most likely, maybe he’s just a free-spirited artist who doesn’t feel the need to explain why and does what he does. Whatever it was, I wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt, and for people to read this and know his music, his art is incredible. And I’m not the only one to take notice. In January 2016, Rolling Stone magazine named him as one of the 10 new artists you need to know. Rolling Stone even printed an interview with the rapper last week after the release of his new album, “Who Told You To Think??!!?!?!?!.” Source Weekly: What inspires you to do what you do? Milo: I don’t know. I have no idea. I just like rapping. I guess I have an affinity for it; maybe that’s what inspires me to do it.

Boundaries and Permissions

SW: As a writer, what do you find makes a good song? M: I don’t know, a feeling, really. I won’t pretend to have a rubric or something. I don’t know, it’s just a feeling. SW: How would you describe the differences between “Who Told You To Think? ?!!?!?!?!” and your previous work? M: Well, I guess, time. It’s the newest of the work, that would be a good point of launch. I don’t know, that’s kind of for the audience to decide. I don’t think about my records in that way. SW: I read that you describe this new album as being about boundaries and permissions. What does that mean for you and what does that mean for the listener? M: A boundary is like, a line defining something. Permission is what you ask for if you’re unsure if you’re allowed to do something. So it’s about those two concepts. I’m not sure what you mean. Boundaries and permissions of all kinds. Life is the tension between boundaries and permissions. This is just a record about that sort of thing. SW: What do you like most about performing live, about freestyling versus writing songs for an album? M: Hmm. I like spontaneity because it seems closer to the source than necessarily rehearsed materials. It also invites an opportunity to fuck up, which is fairly exciting. I mean, I like both. I like being an artist because I can just do what I please. I don’t have to think about the categories or how to do it or even so much an explanation. I just kind of do it. SW

CULTURE

FESTIE LYFE

Sparkles, dust, insomnia, psychedelic trance and a community of 70,000 descend on Big Summit Prairie for the eclipse By Magdalena Bokowa

Why can't real life be this beautiful, open and evolved? Indeed collaboration was key with California festival Symbiosis taking charge of production merged with 13 other world-renowned festivals situated in Oregon, Canada, France, Japan, South Africa, Costa Rica and Australia — to name a few. There were hiccups, sure. For one, it took us 15 hours to get into the festival — from Bend — because of a traffic accident, meaning we drove a painful five miles per hour on average. And another eight hours were spent walking around the dust-filled parking lot trying to find our pre-planned camping space because there was no cell-service or real WiFi. Firechat — a bluetooth-enabled app touted as working without cell service

VOLUME 21 ISSUE 34 / August 24, 2017 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

hhhh. Festivals. An excuse to forgo real life, slap on glitter and indulge in debauchery with friends old and new. The Symbiosis Global Eclipse Gathering held in the depths of the Ochocos at Big Summit Prairie was a week-long adventure that took place Aug.16-23 and featured a whopping seven stages of music, ranging from electronic music to.... electronic music — with a bit of String Cheese Incident, Indian Kirtan, Russian Gypsy beats, Psychedelic Trance and strungout hippie ukulele melodies thrown in. Stages, workshop areas, yoga shalas, dance spaces, pop-up country and western bars (that confusingly sometimes offered alcohol and sometimes didn’t) tea houses, kaleidoscope booths, Burning Man-esq wooden art installations, play areas and swings, psychedelic temples, tree-houses, water slides, teepees, nude mud pits and several party barges dotted the prairie landscape. As did really, really, friendly folk dressed in unicorn costumes. “We’ve been here for months clearing sagebrush, flattening trails, building infrastructure for our world community,” said Josh P., a festival volunteer, “We’re creating a once-ina-lifetime collaborative festival experience for one of the most phenomenal experiences ever to be witnessed: a total solar eclipse.” Party-goers from across the globe made the trip to experience the unique festival and flags of several nations flew in camp spaces.

Ok, he may not be an "actual" dad, but he loves cats, is apparently stable and smells fine, so give him a ride already.

and whose stock jumped exponentially leading up to the gathering as revellers shared their usernames ranging from “Cats_and_weed” to “Party Sloth,” were shouted across social media. In vain of course, because Firechat, Did. Not. Work. Go figure. Young millennials fumbled along as they held their cell phones uselessly in their hands, dumbfounded at not having cell service — probably for the first time in their lives. We returned to the “dark ages” and crayons, markers and glitter were scrawled upon ripped cardboard and used paper plates as messages were taped to gates, posts and porta potties, announcing campers search for their friends. “GOO? WHERE ARE YOU?” read one, “SPACE CADET, We’re at Planet HomeSlice behind Purple Furball,” read another. Oddly enough, for a reported 70,000 person festival, accidental meetups occurred frequently — and often while inebriated, in the dark, making it all that more exciting. “OHMAHGAWD I CAN’T BELIEVE I FOUND CHOOOOO.” Cried a burly man wearing a Panda head, stripped leggings and a fur coat. He groped a scantily clad wizard carrying an LED lantern and a staff. The sorcerer accepted the hug, even though I was unsure of how she could tell who was who, with Panda head and

all. With seven stages operating almost at all hours of the clock (there was a brief one hour pause during the total eclipse) FOMO was operating at an exponential 200 percent and sleep was non-existent. The rapping ditties of the psychedelic trance tent was enough to send one into an adrenalinecaused fury and I’m unsure of how I’ll sleep now without its blasting beats. Delirious insomnia clouded over the group and one hour dirt siestas became our daily ritual. There was tasteful nakedness, an enshrining of the human body — regardless of shape, age or race — and a beach party that echoed spring break madness — except with way more sparkle, rainbows and flamingos. Unicorn floaties were borrowed or commandeered, but always returned and every straggler was graciously accepted if they found themselves on the outskirts of a group. Artistry, musicianship, mind-bodyand-spirit, indigenous traditions and psychedelic mushroom workshops were taught. Cacao ceremonies were performed and a dominatrix lightly spanked her “unicorn” in front of passersby, as an excited audience member ran up and offered her his larger flogger. There was magic. And acceptance. Laughter and stupid jokes.

Interjections from strangers as you walked by and complained about being tired from “all that walking. “Should I call you a Wahm-bulence?” They chided. And there was conversation. Some deep. Some superficial. Some about Kale vs Spinach. Some off-the-wall. Some thought-provoking and mind-expanding. And some silent, yet comfortable. “Why can’t real life be this beautiful, open and evolved?” I wondered out loud. As we gathered on the plains, all 70,000 of us walking out to find our space amid the crowd, the festival fell silent, for what was the first time. As the crescent shape of the sun grew into a tiny sliver, a deep roar began to emerge from within the crowd. My stomach filled with butterflies and goosebumps enveloped my skin. The brilliant gleam of the corina began to sparkle and tears started to stream down all of our faces. Two minutes later it was over. two minutes and there was a sense of renewed energy and celestial mysticism. It was over, but we all had the bond. All in all, perhaps it was silly, or childish but amid all the dancing and the LED lights, the hula hooping and pastie-covered nipples, there was connection. And beauty. And a shitload of dust. SW

to bring any attention to herself. Being humble and wanting to share any credit coming her way, she represented a reporter’s worst fear — the selfless person who doesn’t want to be interviewed. Fortunately, she relented. At any given time, Wise has 90-100 cases, mostly dealing with child victims of both sexual and physical abuse — children up to the age of 18 — though she does get the occasional burglary or homicide case. Currently, she estimates that she has about 76 active cases, about 32 bench warrants, a grand jury case ready to go and a pending grand jury case. “We all have pretty large caseloads,” she says. “Some of my cases are three to four years old, so you have contact with people for a long time.” As a result, she says, victims she has worked with in the past sometimes stop by just to say hello and let her know how they are. Although she admits it’s a stressful job, Wise says there is nothing else that she’d rather be doing. “It’s an awesome feeling to be able to help families when they’re in crisis. I can’t think of anything I dislike about it. Everyone has a bad day, but I just love what I do. I feel incredibly

supported by my family and the people I work with in this office, and I work with wonderful people. I love what I do or I probably wouldn’t do it. For me, one of the things that I have is that I care about people and I want to help them.” As an advocate, she helps victims negotiate their way through the legal system. This can mean putting them in touch with partner organizations that offer different forms of aid, or just sitting with victims in the courtroom to offer them moral support. Her duties can include working with families in divorce cases, with kids in and out of foster care and with parents in disagreement over procedural matters in their child’s court case. “It’s the State’s burden, not the victim’s burden, to prove a case,” Wise says. “In a criminal case, the victim doesn’t win or lose.” There will be a demand for victim advocates “as long as there are victims of crime,” she adds. In a press release from the Office of

the District Attorney, DA John Hummel voiced praise for Wise. “The residents of Deschutes County should treasure Debbi Wise. Having Debbi on our team ensures that, as awful and painful as it is to be a victim of a crime, it you are victimized in our county, you will not walk alone. I’m proud of Debbi for winning this award and commend ODAA for selecting her,” Hummel said. A longtime Redmond resident, Wise, when not at work, enjoys spending time with her son, knitting afghans and listening to country music. “I’m very happy where I’m at and what I do,” she says. “I really don’t want to do anything else. I work with friends and family every single day. I feel very fortunate. I guess I can’t say that enough. The most important thing for me is the family I have here and the families that I meet and work with. I just feel very blessed. The people here, this office, are just amazing.” SW

Debbi Wise

workplace injury with a meat cutter led Debbi Wise to her vocation as a victim advocate for Deschutes County — a position in which she has excelled for more than 20 years. After sustaining the injury at Wagner’s in Redmond, she underwent a placement test that landed her in the county’s victims’ assistance program early in 1995. That first year, as a single mom raising a young son, she worked a 40-hour week while taking classes at Central Oregon Community College. Recently honored with the inaugural Victim Advocate of the Year award, presented by the Oregon District Attorneys’ Association, Wise is modest regarding the accolade, saying, “This award could have gone to anyone in this office. They all do amazing work.” One of five victim advocates who works for Deschutes County, Wise says, “...I couldn’t do it without a team that supports me.” Reflecting on the collaborative workplace, she declares, “I enjoy the people I work with.... We’re a pretty tight team and we work together.” The Victims’ Assistance Program is part of the Office of the District Attorney. When initially contacted by the Source Weekly, Wise was hesitant about being interviewed, not wanting

BITES Starka: A Liquid Fairy Tale ByLITTLE Lisa Sipe

CHOW

The tale of the buried barrel By Lisa Sipe

Farm to Table Feast with Smith Rock Views Savor an outdoor feast sitting at a table on the DD Ranch farm while taking in the stunning expansive views of the Terrebonne countryside and Smith Rock National Park. The sixcourse fall harvest menu, from Chef Nick Ragazzo of the Blackened Dragon food truck, includes roasted corn bisque, seared beef short ribs, cumin roasted lamb shoulder and so much more. Wine, beer and specially paired craft cocktails will be available for purchase, and the evening includes wagon rides from Farmer Jeff and music from the musical duo Second Son. Gluten-free and vegetarian meals are available upon request. SW

The story behind the origin of Starka is as intoxicating as the secretive amber nectar itself.

chances are you’ll have to relocate it. Digging up the barrel and burying it again doesn’t sound fun. With all that, it may be much easier—and enjoyable—to simply buy a bottle of starka. You can find starka in Poland, Russia and Lithuania, but you don’t have to travel there, or dig anything up in your backyard, to try it. It’s made by a handful of distillers in the United States, including Bull Run Distilling and Big Bottom Distilling in Oregon. Modern starka is aged from one to 50 years in used oak barrels. Some distillers add basswood or apple leaves to the barrel; others finish it with brandy. It smells similar to a whiskey or bourbon because of the barrel aging. In

Lisa’s ‘Classin’ It Up’ Strawberry Hill Cocktail 1 oz. Starka 1 oz. Riesling 1 oz. Oregon Strawberry Simple Syrup 1/2 oz. Fresh Lemon Juice(strained) Place all ingredients in a cocktail shaker and shake vigorously. Pour into a coupe or martini glass. Adjust for sweetness or alcohol to preference. To make the strawberry simple syrup, pour two cups of sugar, one cup of water and two cups sliced Oregon strawberries in a saucepan. Slowly bring to a boil and cook until the berries are mushy and the sauce is thick. Let the mixture cool and strain twice.

fact, my novice nose couldn’t tell the difference between them. Where you can tell the difference is if you simply compare vodka to starka. Vodka is relatively odorless, while starka smells complex and rich. The taste is multi-layered with a subtle spice, a hint of vanilla and the lingering flavors of grape, absorbed from the leftover wine in the wood. If you don’t usually like vodka but are a bourbon or whiskey lover, starka is for you. Enjoy it neat (just as-is), straight-up (chilled), or over ice (on the rocks). Or use it to replace whiskey in classic cocktails such as an Old Fashioned, Manhattan, Sazerac, Mint Julep or Whiskey Sour. SW

Starka Old Fashioned 2 oz. Starka 1 tsp. Sugar 4 dashes Aromatic Bitters 1 splash Club Soda 1 Orange Wheel 1 Maraschino Cherry In an old fashioned or rocks glass, add the sugar, bitters, orange, cherry and splash of soda. Smash with a wooden muddler, spoon or another stick-like instrument. Remove the orange wheel, add the starka and fill with ice. Garnish with a fresh orange wheel and cherry.

VOLUME 21 ISSUE 34 / August 24, 2017 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

nce upon a time when a beautiful, bright-eyed baby was born, a barrel was buried to honor the occasion. The cask, left over from wine production, was made of oak staves and bound by wooden hoops. The baby’s father would fill it with homemade spirits, usually vodka, and seal it with beeswax. He’d then find a lovely spot to bury the barrel, maybe next to the dahlias and daisies growing in the garden. As time passed the clear spirit absorbed the characteristics of the wood barrel, picking up fruit flavors from the previous wine, the liquid slowly turning a rich caramel brown. At the same time, the baby grew, influenced by its own environment and the time spent in school and among family and friends. Eventually the baby grew up, fell in love and decided to get married. The father, upon hearing of the engagement, grabbed his shovel and dug up the oak barrel. The liquid in the barrel, now dubbed starka, was consumed at the wedding in celebration. This story isn’t a fairytale; it’s actually an Eastern European tradition from the 15th century. This Old-World custom isn’t popular anymore but it deserves to make a comeback. It’s such a beautiful romantic tale about the maturation of a unique spirit that celebrates life, family and love. To see a resurgence in this tradition, however, you’d have to overcome some barriers. The biggest one: affordability. You can find a used wine barrel for $150 to $200, but where you’ll really spend your money is the vodka. Filling the cask with decent vodka will set you back about $4,600. You could save money by distilling your own vodka, but the time and materials would still be an investment. Another barrier: location. Say you did have the money to fill the barrel— but where to bury it? If you bury your cask in the backyard, what do you do if you move? The typical homeowner lives in a home for seven years, so

MICRO Three Creeks’ Nasty Beer

submitted / Three Creeks Brewing

By Kevin Gifford

Homebrewer Nancy Noll, right, gets a congratulatory hug from fellow brewer Patio.

ll of Central Oregon might be growing, but there’s still something a little timeless about the outer reaches of Sisters—high trees, slower pace, large numbers of livestock about. That’s how things still roll at Three Creeks Brewing on the southeast side of town, which has provided steaks, sandwiches, and taste-overtrends beer for nearly a decade. It’s also exemplified by its clientele—which includes 70-year-old Nancy Noll of Sunriver, whose beer (called, perhaps biographically, Nasty Woman IPA), has joined the lineup after winning best-in-show at the Sisters Homebrew Festival. It proves that picking up new hobbies at retiree age doesn’t mean being limited to quilts and crossword puzzles after all. “I used to be a big wine drinker,” commented Noll, who settled in Sunriver after spending four decades around Humboldt County in California. “It started to give me a headache—too many friends and topped-off glasses. With beer, it’s easier to track how much I’m drinking!” Noll first switched over to beer in 2012, and by the very next year, she was already homebrewing thanks to some friends she met at the Humboldt Homebrew Festival in Arcata. They helped her make the transition from extract to all-grain brewing a year later, and “it just kept getting more and more fun,” she said. “I joined the Central Oregon Home Brewers

Organization. The guys who own the Brew Shop in Bend have helped so much. I’ll call from California, asking, “What the hell am I doing?” and they always help. They’re great.” The Sisters Homebrew Festival, held back on June 3, was the first time that Noll let the general public try out her home brew efforts. “I drove out there by myself,” she recalled. “I had my beer and I’m thinking to myself, ‘What if somebody spits it out? What if someone hates it? I’d feel so good if somebody put just one coin [vote] in my jar.’ [But] they love it. I’ve got a lot of good feedback.” Between its recent special anniversary releases and the upcoming Sisters Fresh Hop Fest on Sept. 30, Three Creeks has a lot on its plate. But readers concerned that Nasty Woman might be some kind of puny session ale have little to worry about. “My beer is a hop monster!” Noll exclaimed. “To me, it’s a really smooth, tasty IPA. It’s not very astringent; it’s got a lot of flavor and aroma. The two main hops in the recipe are citra, which is a citrusy hop, and then it’s dry hopped with mosaic.” And where’d the name come from? “I heard a woman get called nasty for expressing her opinion. If a nasty woman is bold, intelligent, and has self-esteem, then I’m a nasty woman. It’s sarcastic, but that’s why it’s called Nasty Woman IPA.” SW

FILM SHORTS By Jared Rasic

1288 SW Simpson Ave., Bend

ANNABELLE: CREATION: Evil doll movies are normally played for laughs, but the newest film in the “Conjuring Universe” is a rollercoaster ride of jumps, thrills and characters we actually care about. When a group of orphans and a nun start getting messed with by a malevolent, demon possessed doll, their faith is the only thing standing in the way of darkly disturbing Annabelle. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Redmond Cinema ATOMIC BLONDE: Charlize Theron plays a British spy hunting for a dangerous list in Berlin during the Cold War. The movie is fun and action packed and Theron is perfectly cast as a badass super spy. There are a few dumb plot mechanics and story points, but the film is ultimately worth your time. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX BABY DRIVER: Edgar Wright is the visionary

behind such modern classics as “Shaun of the Dead,” “Hot Fuzz” and “The World's End.” It's been way too long since his last movie, but now we can rejoice as he brings his distinct style to a crime thriller/musical/comedy. It looks absolutely sublime. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

THE BIG SICK: Based on the real-life romance of comedians Kumail Nanjiani and Emily V. Gordon, “The Big Sick” was one of the breakout movies of Sundance this year. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX BRIGSBY BEAR: The trailer doesn't really explain what the film's about (which is wonderful!), but it looks like a charming and strange look at how humanity needs its imagination for survival. With a cast featuring Claire Danes, Mark Hamill, Greg Kinnear and the always hilarious Matt Walsh, “Brigsby Bear” has the talent to back up the bizarre and intriguing visuals. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX THE DARK TOWER: This long awaited adaptation of Stephen King's magnum opus is not only a terrible movie in its own right, but one of the worst adaptations of an existing piece of literature ever made. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

DUNKIRK: Christopher Nolan sets his sights on making one of the most fiercely original war movies of all time. Told in a jumbled chronology and filled with some of the most powerful imagery of the year, “Dunkirk” is an unforgettable evening at the movies. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX THE GLASS CASTLE: Based on the bestselling memoir, “The Glass Castle" tracks the life of a woman who was raised by broke hippies and is still having trouble adjusting to normal life as an adult. From the director of “Short Term 12,” this should be a lovely film to watch, especially with the luminous Brie Larson getting another meaty role to sink her teeth into. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House THE HITMAN'S BODYGUARD: Watch-

ing Samuel L. Jackson and Ryan Reynolds as badasses trading quips as they shoot at bad guys should make for an entertaining diversion, even as the reviews come in as pretty terrible. Those two actors have the ability to make the worst movies watchable, so color me excited just to see these guys at the top of their game bouncing off of each other. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House, Redmond Cinema

KIDNAP: Halle Berry's action thriller “Kidnap”

has been pulled from release so many times over the last two years that it's almost a miracle it made it into theaters at all. Berry plays a mom chasing her young son's kidnappers all across a

city while looking good doing it. This looks incredibly forgettable. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

LANDLINE: Two sisters suspect their father is having an affair in this dramedy from the filmmaking team behind the absolutely wonderful “Obvious Child.” Jenny Slate is fast becoming a national treasure, so enjoy “Landline” as another rung on the ladder to her stardom. Tin Pan Theatre LOGAN LUCKY: Channing Tatum, Adam Driver

and Daniel Craig play some blue collar criminals who team up to rob the Charlotte Motor Speedway during the biggest race of the year. “Logan Lucky” is an absolute blast from start to finish and will leave a smile on your face long after the lights come up. Full review on page 33. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House, Redmond Cinema.

LOST IN PARIS: From the filmmaking team

behind the modern French classic, “The Fairy,” comes another delightfully eccentric comedy packed to the gills with whimsy and wonder. If life is feeling a little too real lately, “Lost in Paris” is the perfect antidote. Tin Pan Theater

THE NUT JOB 2: NUTTY BY NATURE: I'm not sure anyone was clamoring for a sequel to a mostly forgotten animated film from a few years back about a squirrel and a rat, but here we are. As great as the voice cast featuring Will Arnett, Maya Rudolph and Jackie Chan are, the last one was terrible and this one doesn't appear to be any better. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House, Redmond Cinema SPIDER-MAN: HOMECOMING: We know what you're thinking: “Another rebooted Spider-Man??” Yes, they just tried this and failed, but the difference is now Marvel Studios gets to play with him. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX SWALLOWS AND AMAZONS: A British pe-

riod adventure about two groups of kids who make pretend war on an island as a real one unfolds around them. The films looks intriguing and uplifting while telling a story that hasn't been overused by dozens of other movies. Tin Pan Theater.

VALERIAN AND THE CITY OF A THOUSAND PLANETS: Critics can't seem to agree on this one, with some calling it a visionary work by one of our most brilliant directors and others saying it's sexist garbage. Coming from Luc Besson, the director of “The Fifth Element” and “The Professional,” can't we agree that it's probably a little bit of both? Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

WAR FOR THE PLANET OF THE APES:

The “final” installment to the “Planet of the Apes” prequel trilogy not only sends the series out on a high note, but also manages to be one of the best films of the year. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

WIND RIVER: The directorial debut of Taylor

Sheridan, the writer behind “Sicario” and “Hell or High Water,” sees Jeremy Renner and Elizabeth Olsen as law enforcement agents who team up to hunt a serial killer across a frozen Indian reservation in Wyoming. “Wind River” will stick to your bones like whiskey. Full review on page 35. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX.

WONDER WOMAN: Looks like the DC Extended Universe has finally gotten it right with this one in ways they failed with “Batman Vs. Superman” and “Suicide Squad.” History has been made with this film. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

Blood on the Snow "Wind River" chills to the bone By Jared Rasic 35

Popmatters

Anyone else think Renner has built a career on being a good shot with different weapons?

the unsung and dying corner of America that has lost everything to the banks. “Wind River” wants to have something profound to say about the massive American failure of how our government treats Native Americans, but all of that subtext plays as text. Everyone says what they mean without leaving much room for thematic depth. Instead, the true success of “Wind River” lies in its portrait of grief and how easy it is to be swallowed whole into its bottomless depths. “Wind River” is being advertised as a mystery/thriller, which is partially true. But Sheridan isn’t as interested in the “whodunit” aspects of the story as he is exploring the dynamics of some complex characters. While Olsen’s role definitely

has some meat to it, Sheridan’s script focuses on Lambert and the past trauma he’s working through. Lambert lost his daughter years prior, in a similar way to Natalie Hanson. He sees this hunt as making up for never catching his daughter’s killer. We know this not because of subtlety or character, but because Lambert’s ex-wife says flat out: “Whatever you’re looking for, you’re not going to find it.” Film is such a beautiful medium because we can figure out what actors are thinking based on the nuance of their performances. To spell out whatever is going on beneath the surface with dialogue ruins any emotional impact those moments have. Don’t get me wrong, “Wind

River” is a very good movie filled with moments of singular beauty and grace—but it doesn’t carry the power of Sheridan’s previous work. This movie could have easily emotionally wrecked its audience, but instead seems to be content to act like that bright blood in the snow: once noticed, it’s impossible to miss, but easily covered up by just a few more snowflakes.

VOLUME 21 ISSUE 34 / August 24, 2017 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

’m not sure if this is a description someone has used before, but if not, I would like to coin it now: In describing films like “Fargo,” “A Simple Plan,” “In Order of Disappearance, “The Snowman,” “Wind River” and the rest of the genre of red blood on white snow in a darkly humorous crime movie — Film Snoir. The hype on “Wind River” has been heavy, but not overpowering. It’s the directorial debut of Taylor Sheridan, the actor-turned-screenwriter responsible for “Sicario” and “Hell or High Water.” Critics and audiences alike wanted to see if he could translate his crackling dialogue, flawless sense of place and heavy characterization into something visually mesmerizing. On that front, the movie is a success. It’s so beautiful to look at, audiences will be swept away by it even if the pacing is slower than they’re used to. The film follows Cory Lambert (played by Jeremy Renner in the best work of his career) as a U.S. Fish and Wildlife Agent called to the Wind River Indian Reservation because of a report that livestock are getting mauled by a possible mountain lion. Lambert is primarily a hunter and tracker. He starts following the tracks and instead finds the body of 18-year old Natalie Hanson. He teams with fish-out-of-water federal agent Jane Banner (a captivating Elizabeth Olsen) and the tribal police chief (the always solid Graham Greene) to track the killer. “Sicario” and “Hell or High Water” are thematically similar. Both are about American failure. “Sicario” centers on the militarization of police and the constant escalation of a drug war that will never end. “Hell or High Water” is fascinated by

Bend Paddle Trail Alliance hosts first Whitewater Park competition By: K.M. Collins 37 VOLUME 21 ISSUE 34 / August 24, 2017 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

ince inception, the four standing waves of the central channel at Bend’s landmark Whitewater Park have ushered and welcomed rivergoers from novice to expert. On Aug. 30, the Bend Paddle Trail Alliance invites one and all to the first of what’s hoped to be an annual Whitewater Festival in which paddlers can celebrate and showcase their skills. The festival will be held in tandem with the fundraising concert series, Pickin’ & Paddlin’ at Tumalo Creek Kayak & Canoe. In hometown throwdown style, a judge will be at each water feature, seeking winners in categories including best rider and trick. Spectators will enjoy play-by-play announcement, identifing competitors by bib numbers, and seeing standup paddle boarders, surfers and boogie boarders compete on their respective waves. Whitewater Festival registration will also cover entrance costs to Pickin’ & Paddlin’, happening immediately after the competition. “Bend’s first Whitewater Festival will be a reflection of the kayaking and surf culture, a fun and informal expo of the talented water enthusiasts in Central Oregon,” says Geoff Frank, lifelong kayaker and Tumalo Creek owner. “Celebrating the river, celebrating the transformation of the dangerous Colorado Spillway into a community asset for novices, families and elite paddlers—that’s what this event is all about.” Michelle Healy, Bend Park & Recreation District director of planning & park services, echoes that sentiment saying, “[The Whitewater Festival] demonstrates and shares with the

Jason’s Wave (Beginner) is the most down-river feature, best suited for people learning whitewater sports or refining their skills. Conditions this season: Double Dragon. Dual directional waves with surfable center face. Named for local Jason Mitchell, 1974 – 2010, who loved nature, photography, snowboarding, traveling, guiding on the river and, most of all, family and friends. Jason would be proud that a wave named in his honor welcomes new people into the river culture and teaches youth the ways of the river.

Natural World

Wetlands Are Enticing - Checking out the Crooked River Wetlands Project

Have a question about the natural world of Central Oregon? Send your questions to jimnaturalist@gmail.com.

By Jim Anderson 39 VOLUME 21 ISSUE 34 / August 24, 2017 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

omorrow morning, when you tumble out of bed, grab your bicycle, lunch, binocs and camera and head for the Crooked River Wetlands off O’Neil Road between Terrebonne and the city of Prineville. The Crooked River Wetlands Project is one of the most wonderful things to happen to Central Oregon in a long, long time. It’s magnificent! If someone had told me Eric Klann of Prineville High School would go to Central Oregon Community College for a year, then end up at Oregon State University graduating with a mechanical engineering degree, eventually working in his hometown in the water department, I’d have said, “No way!” But Klann did just that, and more. To show what a sparkplug he is, he and his 19-man crew replaced the original 1940 wooden freshwater pipeline that carried water to homes in Prineville with the new, modern, safe plastic lines and ended up saving over 150 million gallons of water pumped from the Prineville wells—each and every year. And that was just the beginning. When Klann and his team looked at the two options for handling wastewater, mechanical or sewage ponds, the cost of mechanical put that one out of sight. So, they kept the ponds Prineville was already using, which gave life to the wetlands project. Before Klann started the design of the wetlands, he put together four different groups to tackle certain elements. First, the wetlands habitat that involved the East Cascades Audubon Society and Oregon Master Birder Chuck Gates of Powell Butte. Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife was also consulted. Second, education and recreation, involving Klann’s wife, Sarah, a teacher, and other federal and public school and various trails groups. Third, riparian improvement, involving various public agencies, and hydraulic studies that showed the ponds would actually force more, and better water into the Crooked River. Fourth, vector control, principally about mosquitoes. By keeping the

water cool and in bigger and deeper quantities than most sewage ponds, they wouldn’t become breeding ponds for mosquitoes. In addition, the bird habitat would gobble up mosquitoes. Swallow nesting boxes built and installed by the middle school put the fear of not enough birds to eat mosquitoes out of the picture. It must be noted that Klann hasn’t forgotten the role of bats in mosquito control, either. During the discussion of the pestiferous insects, he said, “Oh, yes, we also plan to put up as many bat roosts as possible.” If Klann says there will be bat roost boxes, there WILL be bat roost boxes. The plans for using the wetlands for education have already been put into motion. On Aug. 14, 22 youngsters from the U.S. Forest Service Children’s Forest project were doing their first-ever macro invertebrate study on the water of Crooked River, flowing through the wetlands. Bess Ballantine, outdoor teacher with the Children’s Forest, accompanied the children on a “Discover Nature Day.” “Kids helped catch

macro-invertebrates and identify what was there,” Ballantine said. Then there is the work that the first wetlands volunteer, Jim Van Vlack, is doing to get the educational and docent programs underway. Van Vlack, a key volunteer for the Sunriver Nature Center in the ‘70s and ‘80s, says, with his usual enthusiasm, “The possibilities for educational opportunities are limitless!” And to prove it, he and his wife, Maryann, are putting that into reality with the docent handbook they’re about to finish. It must be noted here that Klann had to surmount an 18-inch-high pile of permits (literally) to get the job started. That in itself would probably have discouraged someone to undertake such a project, but not Klann. In the permit to tamper with the waters of Crooked River, for example, Klann and his advisory group found— by studying the geology of the old floodplain—that the water purified in the wetland ponds would force additional fresh, cool water into the river’s flow, enhance the salmon fishery already underway, and replace water

removed for irrigation. There are already 13 excellent informational kiosks placed skillfully in the wetlands area, covering the subjects of native pollinators, wetlands plants, Native American history, Prineville history, East Crooked River geology, water treatment, steelhead reproduction and other information about that area of Crook County. On the same day the Children’s Forest group was investigating the macro invertebrates of the Crooked River, Nancy Sheldon of Redmond was taking a leisurely hike on one of the trails, enjoying the solitude and new sites of her fist visit. As she was leaving, she noticed some birding pamphlets adjacent to the parking area. Master Birder Chuck Gates used many of his photographs and his years of counting birds at the old sewage plant and the new wetlands to compose a “Crooked River Wetlands Bird List.” As Sheldon was leaving, she took one of the pamphlets and said, “You just never know, the next time I’m here for a hike, I may take up bird-watching.” SW

Are Remarks About a New Housing Bubble Founded or Unfounded?

for housing and the number of homes sold today is 20 percent below the precrash volume. Additionally, unlike our recent bubble, we do not have the easy mortgages for speculators, which was a significant factor in the past. In a bubble situation like our most recent one, speculation was a large factor as builders kept building, thinking prices could never fall and people were investing in homes based on the returns. I personally have been concerned about how home affordability and how home price growth has far exceeded wage growth and the inflation rate, but I think all of us can see that there are limits to price growth. Because of our most recent meltdown, people have a different mindset about prices – that they can be too high and can come down instead of indefinitely going up. Many economists see our housing market as expensive, competitive and unaffordable, but reject the bubble notion.

s the housing market continues to recover from the great meltdown, we hear concerns from many people that we are approaching another bubble. According to a recent article in Forbes, 58 percent of the respondents to a survey felt that there will be a housing bubble—and correction—in the next two years. Considering that housing price growth has surpassed wage growth and inflation, it’s easy to see why many people feel that way—and history is on their side. According to the article, for the past 50 years, the typical home price cycles are seven to 10 years. The current cycle started in 2012 and our most recent cycle before the meltdown was 17 years long. The most recent Core-Logic Case-Shiller Home Price Indices release stated that housing was not in a bubble situation, because unlike the previous bubble, price growth is not universal, there is growing demand

WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / August 24, 2017 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

October 6-8

In looking for love, a number of people confuse “the chase” with something closer to criminal stalking. In their defense, these ideas don’t come out of nowhere. For example, consider how creepy the Cupid dude with the little bow and arrow actually is. Basically, he’s the chubby baby version of the maniac hunting people down with a crossbow. The reality is, nobody pines for what’s easy to get or, worse, what’s chasing madly after them. It’s about value. Being easy to get or seeming desperate suggests one has what anthropologists call “low mate value.” Social psychologist Robert Cialdini explains this with “the scarcity principle,” which describes how the less available something is the more valuable it seems and the more we want it. Being scarce doesn’t necessarily equate to being more valuable; however, because of how psychologically painful we find regret — feeling that we screwed up and thus missed out — scarcity kicks us into a motivational state, making us all hot for whatever’s in short supply. This is the sales principle behind those chichi boutiques with just one item on a

rack, as if they were a mini museum of the little black dress. There’s a good chance they have 20 more in the back. But putting out 20 sends a different message — like one of those shops with a big yellow sign, “Everything in the store, $15, including the dog.” Still, the scarcity principle sometimes gets falsely accused of causing a burgeoning relationship to tank when other factors are actually to blame. Consider whether you’re choosing wisely — going for someone who’s ready to be in a relationship. Some people who think they’re ready may not be. (Time — along with wanting to know instead of just wanting to believe — will tell.) Others will admit that they aren’t ready. Believe them — or at least tread cautiously — and recognize the propensity many women have for Svengali-ette-alism: “I’ll be the one to change him!” (Kleenex has succeeded as a brand in no small part thanks to these women.) With someone who is a real possibility, you’ll have your best shot by coming off appropriAmy Alkon ately interested instead of stalkerish so. If you tend to go from zero to texting a guy 36 times in a row while sitting in your car with binoculars trained on his house, figure out proactive ways to avoid that and other crazypants stuff you do. (Perhaps, for example, give your next-door neighbor custody of your phone and car keys upon coming home.) Sure, love is said to be “a journey,” but it shouldn’t be one that has something in common with being chased by feral hogs down a lonely country road.

ASTROLOGY

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): What I wish for you

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Psychologist James Hansell stated his opinion of psychoanalyst Sigmund Freud: “He was wrong about so many things. But he was wrong in such interesting ways. He pioneered a whole new way of looking at things.” That description should provide good raw material for you to consider as you play with your approach to life in the coming weeks, Libra. Being right won’t be half as important as being willing to gaze at the world from upside-down, inside-out perspectives. So I urge you to put the emphasis on formulating experimental hypotheses, not on proving definitive theories. Be willing to ask naive questions and make educated guesses and escape your own certainties.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You’re entering a phase of your astrological cycle when you’ll be likely to receive gifts at a higher rate than usual. Some gifts could be big, complex, and catalytic, though others may be subtle, cryptic, or even covert. While some may be useful, others could be problematic. So I want to make sure you know how important it is to be discerning about these offerings. You probably shouldn’t blindly accept all of them. For instance, don’t rashly accept a “blessing” that would indebt or obligate you to someone in ways that feel uncomfortable.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You are currently under the influence of astrological conditions that have led to dramatic boosts of self-esteem in laboratory rats. To test the theory that this experimental evidence can be applied to humans, I authorize you to act like a charismatic egomaniac in the coming weeks. JUST KIDDING! I lied about the lab rats. And I lied about you having the authorization to act like an egomaniac. But here are the true facts: The astrological omens suggest you can and should be a lyrical swaggerer and a sensitive swashbuckler.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): I invite you to eliminate all of the following activities from your repertoire in the next three weeks: squabbling, hassling, feuding, confronting, scuffling, skirmishing, sparring, and brawling. Why is this my main message to you? Because the astrological omens tell me that everything important you need to accomplish will come from waging an intense crusade of peace, love, and understanding. The bickering and grappling stuff won’t help you achieve success even a little — and would probably undermine it. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Stockbrokers in Pakistan grew desperate when the Karachi Stock Exchange went into a tailspin. In an effort to reverse the negative trend, they performed a ritual sacrifice of ten goats in a parking lot. But their “magic” failed. Stocks continued to fade. Much later they recovered, but not in a timely manner that would suggest the sacrifice worked. I urge you to avoid their approach to fixing problems, especially now. Reliance on superstition and wishful thinking is guaranteed to keep you stuck. On the other hand, I’m happy to inform you that the coming weeks will be a highly favorable time to use disciplined research and rigorous logic to solve dilemmas. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): In the coming days, maybe you could work some lines from the Biblical “Song of Solomon” into your intimate exchanges. The moment is ripe for such extravagance. Can you imagine saying things like, “Your lips are honey,”

or “You are a fountain in the garden, a well of living waters”? In my opinion, it wouldn’t even be too extreme for you to murmur, “May I find the scent of your breath like apricots, and your whispers like spiced wine flowing smoothly to welcome my caresses.” If those sentiments seem too flowery, you could pluck gems from Pablo Neruda’s love sonnets. How about this one: “I want to do with you what spring does to the cherry trees.” Here’s another: “I hunger for your sleek laugh and your hands the color of a furious harvest. I want to eat the sunbeams flaring in your beauty.”

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Welcome to Swami Moonflower’s Psychic Hygiene Hints. Ready for some mystical cleansing? Hint #1: To remove stains on your attitude, use a blend of Chardonnay wine, tears from a cathartic crying session, and dew collected before dawn. Hint #2: To eliminate glitches in your love life, polish your erogenous zones with pomegranate juice while you visualize the goddess kissing your cheek. #3: To get rid of splotches on your halo, place angel food cake on your head for two minutes, then bury the cake in holy ground while chanting, “It’s not my fault! My evil twin’s a jerk!” #4: To banish the imaginary monkey on your back, whip your shoulders with a long silk ribbon until the monkey runs away. #5: To purge negative money karma, burn a dollar bill in the flame of a green candle.

Barrel-Aged Whiskey, Cider and Beer

Local & Regional Brewers

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): A reader named Kameel Hawa writes that he “prefers pleasure to leisure and leisure to luxury.” That list of priorities would be excellent for you to adopt during the coming weeks. My analysis of the astrological omens suggests that you will be the recipient of extra amounts of permission, relief, approval, and ease. I won’t be surprised if you come into possession of a fresh X-factor or wild card. In my opinion, to seek luxury would be a banal waste of such precious blessings. You’ll get more health-giving benefits that will last longer if you cultivate simple enjoyments and restorative tranquility. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): The coming weeks will be an excellent time to cruise past the houses where you grew up, the schools you used to attend, the hotspots where you and your old friends hung out, and the places where you first worked and had sex. In fact, I recommend a grand tour of your past. If you can’t literally visit the locations where you came of age, simply visualize them in detail. In your imagination, take a leisurely excursion through your life story. Why do I advise this exercise? Because you can help activate your future potentials by reconnecting with your roots. CANCER (June 21-July 22): One of my favorite Cancerian artists is Penny Arcade, a New York performance artist, actress, and playwright. In this horoscope, I offer a testimonial in which she articulates the spirit you’d be wise to cultivate in the coming weeks. She says, “I am the person I know best, inside out, the one who best understands my motivations, my struggles, my triumphs. Despite occasionally betraying my best interests to keep the peace, to achieve goals, or for the sake of beloved friendships, I astound myself by my appetite for life, my unwavering curiosity into the human condition, my distrust of the status quo, my poetic soul and abiding love of beauty, my strength of character in the face of unfairness, and my optimism despite defeats and loss.”

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): The Witwatersrand is a series of cliffs in South Africa. It encompasses 217 square miles. From this area, which is a tiny fraction of the Earth’s total land surface, humans have extracted 50 percent of all the gold ever mined. I regard this fact as an apt metaphor for you to meditate on in the next 12 months, Leo. If you’re alert, you will find your soul’s equivalent of Witwatersrand. What I mean is that you’ll have a golden opportunity to discover emotional and spiritual riches that will nurture your soul as it has rarely been nurtured.

y most any standards, I would be considered a Heathen. The wormhole for word nerds, dictionary.com, defines Heathen thusly: Noun, plural heathens, heathen 1) (in historical contexts) an individual of a people that do not acknowledge the God of the Bible; a person who is neither a Jew, Christian, nor Musum; a pagan. The definition goes on to say it’s a word that is “disparaging and offensive,” although I have never felt it to be so. But I may be willing to cleave unto the Lord at a recently opened church in Denver, Colo., which was profiled in an article by The Guardian. The Church of Cannabis opened on April 20, 2016, because, of course that’s the date it should open. The church is the brainchild of Yale University graduate Steve Berke and his fellow stoner buddy, Lee Molloy. Steve had relocated to Denver to enter into the cannabis industry, and was living in the 113-year-old church that his parents had purchased with plans to convert it into apartments. In a conversation that many of us would to have loved to have heard, Steve convinced his parents to give him the church so that he could start up a place of worship, with some unique facets. Doing away with the stained glass windows and traditional dour imagery found in many mainstream houses of worship, they engaged the services of artists Kenny Scharf and Okuda San Miguel. Their murals are bright, bold, semi-hallucinatory and a strong indicator that there may be some cannabis consumption amongst the faithful. About that consumption: Colorado only allows it in private homes and clubs, and said clubs must be members only. The membership for the church presently tops 1,400 and is growing, with public viewings of the building from Thursday through Sunday. On Friday nights are the private,

members-only services—with consumption. This hasn’t been sitting well with local officials, who have filed citation charges against three founding members for, among other things, violating the Colorado Clean Indoor Act. State Rep. Dan Pabon (D), went so far as to tell The New York Times that the church “offends both religious beliefs everywhere, as well as the voter’s intent on allowing legalization of marijuana in Colorado.” (Such a statement would be news to most every Rastafarian anywhere, if they cared about the false beliefs of a Babylon Bubu such as Pabon.) Attendees refer to themselves as “elevationists,” which former Bible Quiz champion Lee explains as a term they came up with to cover their broad based belief system. “Our spiritual journey is one of self-discovery, not one of dogma,” he says. “We believe there is no one-path solution to life’s big questions. This is simply a supportive place for each one of us to find a pathway to our own spirituality, whatever that may be.” Members get to know one another while passing joints, singing songs and general fellowship, which is made all the more appealing to some by the onsite video arcade and ping pong tables. Altered states in religious practice is a hardly new thing: Sufis, Rastafarians, Haitian Voodoo priests and many others have used mind-altering substances for countless millennia, and even the Catholic church offers wine during communion. In the end, anything light on dogma and judgment, but heavy on community, gathering in peace and exploration of one’s belief system in relationship to the cosmos seems worthy of support and encouragement in these dark times. Praise the lord(s) and pass the dutchie, from the left hand side.
