OPINION Letters

While freshwater diving at high altitude may present different challenges, certifying divers in these conditions doesn’t necessarily transfer skills to open water ocean diving. I am a PADI certified Master Scuba Diver, with hundreds of dives logged over the past 30+ years in places across the globe, including those mentioned in the article (Belize, Palau, and Cozumel (near Cancun). My high altitude dives include Crater Lake and Lake Paulina.

Some of the open ocean conditions I’ve encountered in my experience include practically zero visibility, strong currents, and the potential of hazardous marine life, among others. Generally, ocean conditions present a greater potential for injury, and the need to be cautious around marine life.

I would say that if you’ve been diving in Tillamook Bay in December, you can dive practically anywhere.

PROPOSED 120-FT CELL TOWER A 120-ft cell tower has been proposed off East Hwy 20, around 8 minutes from town that is owned by Central Oregon Irrigation District.

Only residents 1,200 ft from the site were notified. The proposed place would be in the center of Rural Residential (homes with, mainly 5-10 acres.) Juniper trees in the area stand mostly at 20-30 feet, a few up to 40 feet.

Written testimony can be entered into the record up to Sept. 12. File #247-16-000081-CU. cynthia.smidt@deschutes.org.

According to the Telecommunications Act 1996, just health reasoning for not having the tower would not be considered relevant, since it passes FCC regulations, but do you think it would affect property values for any reason?

Would you purchase a home by this type of tower? Would this affect the character and aesthetics of the area? Livability?

A possible solution could be more small cell towers in the general area and in areas that are having not very good cell service?

According to the Telcom Act it is the responsibility of the wireless provider to prove that there are not other, less intrusive solutions.

Instead of a massive tower that would mar the area, which is just minutes from the Bad Lands.

This proposed tower the cell company would sublet to other cell providers, (a big benefit for the wireless provider), which is part of the reasoning for extreme size and an easy way for

I feel compelled to comment on the Scuba Dooba Do! article in the Sept. 1 issue of The Source Weekly. Sarah Clark, a Central Oregon Diving member, was quoted several times.

One quote is troubling to me: “So when we certify people here, they have more tools and training because they’ve dived at altitude, so they can dive anywhere.” This may instill a false sense of confidence in these divers.

the provider to possibly improve cell coverage in some areas. Multiple small towers would be more precise. Also, collocation (they could connect to another cell tower already in place) then add other small towers. I hope some people won’t just think, “As long as it doesn’t happen by me.” We all need to work together as an entire community to keep Bend beautiful and livable for us all.

IN RESPONSE TO “FUEL FOR THE FIRES, INSIDE AND OUT,” (8/31): Good story. There’s actually a lot going on with biomass here in the region. It’s hard to argue with utilizing material from nearby forest restoration projects that will otherwise be burned in piles with NO capture of energy and far worse particulate emissions.

—Scott Aycock via bendsource.com

IN RESPONSE TO “FUEL FOR THE FIRES, INSIDE AND OUT,” (8/31): Several commenters here and Jeffrey Morris quote studies that are fatally flawed and do not consider all the facts. First, CO2 is not all the same. Releasing CO2 from fossil fuel that was sequestered half a billion years ago does not have the same effect on the environment as CO2 released from bio-mass fuel that removed CO2 from the atmosphere recently. Fossil fuel use is responsible for the increase to 400 ppm in atmospheric CO2 seen since the industrial revolution.

Second, these studies do not consider the CO2 release and other harmful pollution from biomass that could have been used as a fuel but was not. Forests and agriculture by-products produce vast amounts of bio-mass that cause extreme air pollution during wildfires, field burning, slash pile burning, prescribed burns and decomposition. These releases of CO2, particulates, CO and other pollutants are not optional and will occur whether this bio-mass is used as a fuel or not. Fossil fuels can be left in the ground, but bio-mass will accumulate and revert to CO2. Using bio-mass will not increase the release of CO2 and can in fact reduce it by reducing wildfires and slash burning. The DOE has reconsidered their position on bio-mass fuel for these reasons, but the oil industry’s myths continue to be passed on as truth.

SAY NO TO MORE NATIONAL FOOD CHAINS An article in the Bend Bulletin on Sept. 3, stated “Bend may get Cracker Barrel, Chick-fil-A. Both restaurants could be built on U.S. Highway 97 near Robal Road.”

This city already has its share of fast-food chains. They dot the landscape throughout town, mostly on Third Street but pretty much all over town. Do we really need these two additional chains? And southern-based ones at that?

Maybe you like southern food but I think these two would further deteriorate the Bend and hip

vibe that we’re already in danger of losing. If you want authentic southern and Cajun food, eat at Zydeco or another local establishment. I know Zydeco is light-years apart in terms of cuisine and service but you’d enjoy the local selections and experience way more than food dreamt up by corporate bigwigs who dream of deep-fat fryers. I suggest we protest the possible addition of these restaurants not by picketing but by simply not patronizing them. Hopefully the lack of business would make them shut down.

LETTER OF THE WEEK

Steven, it would have been super cool if we could have gotten the actor Steven Seagal in here to pick up his $5 from Palate and show off some ninja moves...but since I agree that Cracker Barrel’s old-timey corporate kitsch wouldn’t add much to our community, we’re giving you, the non-actor, the Bend successfully protested against Wal-Mart letter of the week.

Pettinger’s proposed for Cracker Barrel and Chick-fil-A. - Nicole Vulcan, Editor We can do the same for these two totally unneeded and some would say unhealthy restauE.J. Pettinger’s rants. Do we really want visitors seeing these restaurants as some of the first things they see when they drive down on 97 to enter Bend?

Cracker Barrel also often utilizes very tall billboards and signage as well. Do we really want that? Do we really want our kids and families eating at these places so they grow up thinking of these places as good and healthy normal food?

ENDORSEMENTS

City Council Position 1: Justin Livingston Justin Livingston and Ron Boozell make for an interesting contrast for voters.

One is a soft-spoken conservative with a limited political background. The other is a forceful libertarian activist whose passion can barely be controlled when extrapolating on policy discussions.

elections. And yet, when asked for where additional government funds might come from, his response, unfortunately, is disbelief about the existing funding gap and staunch anti-tax rhetoric circulating around the failed gas tax.

On a positive note, Livingston has served on the Affordable Housing committee and his knowledge on that subject will be a help as the city navigates the Herculean task of making more affordable housing available in Bend.

Boozell has come a long way as a politician, from his last failed attempt to secure a City Council seat, but he still has a long way to go. Often times his emotion gets the best of him and fully thought-out policies are hard to articulate or understand. There is a marked improvement from the last go around, but to be a viable candidate for a City Council position there is a lot of development that is going to need to happen regarding his policies. Frankly, we feel Boozell will serve the community better as an outsider pursuing his activist role.

We are endorsing Livingston but with serious reservations about sending a candidate who believes that a city that is growing at our current pace can do so without increasing revenue through a

mechanism like the gas tax. Hopefully the staff debriefing won’t be too painful as Livingston comes face to face with city budget realities.

of another. It’s also no secret she wants to be selected Mayor by her peers on the City Council now that Jim Clinton is leaving that position. She has served as Mayor pro-tem since January 2015.

City Council Position 3: Sally Russell

Russell has a number of credits to her resume that have been good for the City of Bend. She served as executive director of the Cascade Festival of Music and the Cascade Cycling Classic, among many high profile positions in the private and public sector. On the City Council, she is known for her collaborative style— listening to both sides while seeking common solutions.

The race between Sally Russell for re-election and Wade Fagen, business owner and arborist, is a contrast in styles.

Both are native Oregonians with a long history in Bend. While each brings a different approach to the table, both have a passion for the city’s best interest. Fagan is a 30-year businessman in Bend.

He runs on a populist platform of operating the city as he does his business. A onetime logger, he is a professional arborist and owns and operates Fagen Tree Service and Wood Chips. He’s seen the city grow and understands its heritage. Many think he brings qualities that would help bridge the gap between the old and new Bend as the city continues to grow.

Russell grew up in the Portland area and moved to Bend, but has always had strong connections to Central Oregon.

She has served one term and is deserving

While Fagen brings solid qualities, they don’t outweigh what Russell has accomplished in the private and public sector.

By keeping Russell on the City Council, it allows her the opportunity to continue her work momentum while at the same time it provides the city some institutional knowledge on a City Council that could turn over four of its seven members.

There’s no reason for the city to start from scratch with the many hard decisions it will have to make with burgeoning growth and major decisions impacting affordable housing, street maintenance, new urban growth boundaries, and climate change resolutions, to name a few. Russell has fought through all those issues, listened to countless viewpoints, encouraged collaboration and, in the end, voted with the best information available and in the best interests of Bend.

While many in the community are trying to make this election a referendum on the failed fuel tax last March—don’t let them. It should be about choosing the most qualified and informed candidate.

Sally Russell is that candidate. SW

How to Handle the Housing Crisis?

As a UGB proposal is approved by the City Council, Bend 2030 works toward solutions on other parts of the home front

By Jaclyn Brandt

VOLUME 20 ISSUE 37 / September 15, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

I

n 2014, Bend 2030 sent out a survey asking locals to weigh in about housing.

They received 600 responses from people of all walks of life—many who have had difficulty finding housing.

A Sampling of Responses: “My family had to find a new home this past April due to our landlords deciding to sell the home we lived in for the past 6 yrs. We could not find a single 3-bedroom home for under $1,400 (we were paying $1,100 before) and no landlords would allow us to have our German Shepherd.

We are now in a smaller, more expensive house without our dog.”

“I have a college degree. No criminal history. Good credit. No children out of wedlock. No pets. I have worked for government in various capacities, been responsible, paid my taxes, volunteered.

I’m down to renting a room and ready to throw in the towel on Bend.”

That was two years ago, and the problems haven’t eased up.

With thousands moving to Bend each year and very few houses and apartments being built, the current housing crisis just comes down to math.

In June, Bend 2030 held the Bend Livability Conference, with the intention of discussing those concerns—but more importantly, what (if anything) the city and outside groups can do about it. A Bend 2030 working group came up with possibilities, and last week released a report based on those findings.

Ideas included increasing building height limits, decreasing open space and parking requirements for builders, and allowing for a greater diversity of housing types.

The group also talked about potential incentives for the development of work-

force or multifamily housing.

Bend 2030 is working to help the growth problem in Bend, but is focused especially on what they call “gaps” in the housing market.

“The city is leading the way in the state for providing affordable housing tools,” explained Erin Foote Morgan, executive director of Bend 2030. “The part that is

work together to research and develop some new tools and policies to hit that middle market. Professionals who are just trying to find a place to live.”

The organization created a working group of what it calls “diverse stakeholders” in the community, and has released a Request for Proposal for a Bend Collaborative Housing Workgroup Project Manager.

Meanwhile, Bend 2030 is not the only organization planning growth. In 2009, the City of Bend presented its Urban Growth Boundary plan to the state of Oregon—but because of strict land use laws, state officials rejected that version.

The city tried again and the new plan was approved by the City Council on Sept. 7.

“We pulled together 60 different people in the community to look at housing, to look at employment, to look at the boundary,” says Nick Arnis, director of the Growth Management Department with the City of Bend. “And from that a lot of consensus was done. Whereas in 2009 we had people that were opposing the Urban Growth Boundary. We have really come together as a community.

So now it's up to us as a community to implement the plan.”

Although the new plan still has to be approved by both the county and state, the

city is moving forward as if the plan will be approved. Still, that long-sought UGB plan is only meant to last until 2028.

“The way Bend is growing, as soon as we get done with this, we will probably go right back into looking at how fast is it happening, where is the area filling up?” he explained. “It’s a constant analysis of demand and supply.”

Morgan expects the working group to come up with a solid plan in 12 to 18 months, and then it will work on how to implement that plan. But with the city’s new comprehensive plan one step closer to approval, it’s now the priority of Arnis’ department to focus on implementation.

“So now it’s time to take all that great energy and put it into how we are going to implement it,” Arnis says. “It’s an exciting time to be in Bend. SW

Authorities investigate a collision that took the life of a two-year-old. Photo courtesy of Oregon State Police.

Two-Year-Old Killed in Hwy 20 Crash A crash involving three vehicles on Highway 20 Sunday left a two-yearold child dead and several others hurt.

According to the Oregon State Police, Sherwood resident David Fincher was driving his Toyota Tacoma eastbound west of Tumalo Sunday morning when he lost control on a corner and crossed the center line. Police say his vehicle hit two separate vehicles, first hitting a Volkswagen Jetta occupied by Sarah Peterson and two children, all of Bend.

The Tacoma then collided with a Dodge Charger, occupied by Alexander Perkins and Ashley Perkins of Bend.

Police say a two-year-old girl in the Jetta died at the scene. The other passengers were transported to the hospital for their injuries. Fincher was arrested on charges of 2nd degree Manslaughter.

As of Sept. 12, Fincher faced pending charges of 1st degree Manslaughter, five counts of 3rd degree Assault and DUI, according to the Deschutes County Jail.

Friends of the Petersons have set up a fund at crowdrise.com/support-the-peterson-family.

Trial Begins for Malheur Occupiers Opening arguments began Tuesday in the trial against seven people accused of occupying the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge. Ammon Bundy—long considered the ringleader in the occupation—along with his brother, Ryan, and five other people, are charged with conspiring to occupy the refuge beginning Jan. 2, 2016. The defendants claim the occupation was not a conspiracy, but instead a political protest aimed at fighting governmental control.

Cascades Academy Breaks Ground on Expansion Cascades Academy is breaking ground on the school’s expansion Sunday, Sept.

18. The independent school opened its new campus, located on Tumalo Reservoir Road, in 2013, serving students from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade. The school officially opened its doors with 61 students in mid-town Bend in 2003. Now with more than 190 students, it’s time to expand. This week’s groundbreaking will begin the construction of a new upper school wing, an IDEA lab focusing on innovation and technology, a play area and more parking—as well as making space for other activities.

“By creating this new wing we will be able to dedicate two of our current classrooms to our music and theater programs,” says Caitlin Ciannella, Cascades Academy’s Director of Development. “Increasing our fine arts programming is a goal of our strategic plan and we’re excited to be able to include this in the project.”

Public Montessori Program Up for Public Comment A program offering tuition-free Montessori-style education is up for public comment at the Bend-La Pine District hearing Sept. 27. If approved, Desert Sky Montessori Charter would become the first public Montessori in the BendLa Pine District. The school would provide education for students from kindergarten through 8th grade, with a goal of an approximately 500-seat school in Bend and another 300-seat school in Redmond.

According to the school’s website, the first school site is planned for the northeast side of Bend. The first step, however, is gaining approval by the school board. The board is expected to vote on the issue sometime following the public hearing. That hearing, is Tuesday, Sept. 27 at 6pm at the Education Center at 520 NW Wall Street in Bend. Public comments are invited. SW

Dig uncovers treasures that could be the oldest in the Western Hemisphere

By Brian Jennings

T

he backcountry of Central-Eastern Oregon is surrounded by a sea of sagebrush from horizon to horizon. On these lands, managed by the Federal Bureau of Land Management, the winds are often screaming. On this morning in September, however, the winds are calm, except for a whisper blowing through the sage.

It’s at this archaeological site that scientists have uncovered what may be the oldest evidence of man in North America, and perhaps in the Western Hemisphere…right here in Oregon.

Burns BLM archaeologist Scott Thomas takes the lead on a path to the ancient site. “Watch where you step,” he warns. Rattlesnakes inhabit the area and become active as the sun warms the many rock outcrops.

As luck would have it, none emerge.

Thomas is a veteran archaeologist who has worked in the Burns BLM district for 22 years. While the BLM

manages millions of acres of public lands, it places a high priority on preserving evidence of ancient life— something increasingly found in the high desert of Central and Eastern Oregon. His job is to document and protect sites where evidence of human existence is found. He says this site—known as the Rimrock Draw Rock Shelter—is his most important discovery as a professional archaeologist.

A BIG DISCOVERY Thomas discovered the site in 2009 while doing routine work. When passing a rock outcropping he had observed dozens of times, he finally stopped, walked in and investigated. He discovered obsidian used by natives to fashion tools and weapons, including a spear point.

He also noticed sage eight feet tall. The soil beneath the sage was deep and black with carbon residue, indicating that life had existed there.

There were signs of charcoal which

indicated the use of fire. He speculated that whatever life there had been at the location was easily over 7,000 ago—but it turned out to be much older than he thought.

Soil and carbon 14 tests soon would reveal man’s existence at the site 13,000 years ago.

In the fall of 2012, archaeologists conducted a special excavation in an

found as a prehistoric ‘Leatherman Tool’ with multiple functions. There are two scraping edges which contained animal and blood residue, a sharp edge for cutting meat, and a point for drilling or punching holes into wood or leather. “It’s a multitool like you would use out camping or hunting today,” Thomas says.

The ash above where the tool was found was at first thought to be from Mt. Mazama, which erupted 7,600 years ago, forming Crater Lake.

“People were here much longer than we realized. Working on a site this old is the dream of a lifetime for me as an archaeologist.” - Scott Thomas attempt the reach the bedrock. At the 10-foot level they found volcanic ash. Below that were remnants of camel teeth, and 10 inches below that, they uncovered a tool that may dramatically change the perceived time frame of the discovery.

However, tests revealed that the ash was actually from one of many eruptions of Mt. St. Helens in Washington state, which occurred 15,800 years ago.

Subsequent tests will determine if the layering where the Mt. St. Helens ash was found corresponds to the time frame of the eruptions. If it ...Continues on page 11

does, and since the tool was found below the ash, a strong argument can be made that it’s even older than the ash eruption. “If all the geological strata are in their natural and appropriate order, then that tool should be older than that ash,” says Dr. Patrick O’Grady, who leads the University of Oregon archaeology team excavating the site.

Scott Thomas says, “It’s possible that this tool is more than 16,000 years old. It could be one of the oldest artifacts in North America. In fact, it could be one of the oldest artifacts in the Western Hemisphere.”

The tool is made from orange-colored agate, which is very hard and durable. Thomas says it’s not clear where the agate originated since it’s not found in the area where the tool was discovered. In this sage landscape, obsidian dominates.

Because of that, researchers posit that the tool came from hundreds of miles away, giving rise to speculation

about trade routes and migration.

“This is the oldest archaeology I’ve ever worked with,” Thomas explains.

“People were here much longer than we realized. Working on a site this old is the dream of a lifetime for me as an archaeologist.”

In addition to the ancient scraping tool, the team has uncovered and dated a number of spearheads and other items. One object was a nearly perfect round ball made of pumice, resembling a large marble. Thomas speculates it was used in games.

CARBON DATING: DIGGING DEEPER Accuracy of carbon dating technology has seen many advances in the last 50 years. Initially the limit to testing for age was about 13,000 years, but advancements in dating have enabled archaeologists to reach deeper into ancient history. Approximately 100 miles southwest of the

“Oregon has become the epicenter of ancient human discoveries in the West and perhaps North America,” says Thomas. Recent research is also changing theories on how natives migrated and intermixed in North America. For years, it’s been theorized that native societies migrated from Siberia to Alaska, then worked their way south into the Great Basin and populated the region.

Now, evidence from Oregon shows that societies have existed in the region for thousands of years. Each of them brought their own unique technologies in the making of tools and weapons. The Clovis society brought with them a method called "fluting" in their crafting of tools and weapons. “The Clovis met other people who used ‘stemmed’ points which were a different technology,” says Thomas. “Many people are thinking that these two technologies met in this area—in Central Oregon and Northern Nevada—so much more attention is being placed in this area and research is reflecting that.”

Taken in context, while Oregon’s archaeological research is finding evidence of ancient life dating back much farther than previously thought, the timeline found here—at least so far—pales in comparison to European discoveries which date

back hundreds of thousands of years with research conducted on Cro Magnon and Neanderthal man.

Cro Magnon—now often called Anatomically Modern Humans, or AMH—are thought to have evolved as long as 195,000 years ago in Ethiopia. Neanderthals could have evolved as many as 200,000 years ago. The two groups co-existed for several thousand years. While Neanderthals died out, AMH did not.

Some scientists believe that up to four percent of today’s modern human population carries Neanderthal genes, sparking much controversial debate.

Still, the science is evolving. The dating of the Mt. St. Helens ash may provide a strong case that the Leatherman-like tool found near Burns may be much older than Thomas and his colleagues suggest. As word about the Rimrock discoveries spread, more researchers are getting interested.

Researchers from the Universities of Wyoming and Missouri, and Texas A&M University are expressing interest in the site and in potentially joining University of Oregon teams.

Thomas says, “The cool thing about that is you get a lot of good minds working together on a puzzle, and you usually get better results.”

Meanwhile, researchers continue to find more sites throughout Oregon.

U of O’s O’Grady says, “You never know what you are going to find or discover when you put your trowel or shovel to the ground.”

As research and dating techniques evolve, it may be safe to say that, literally, they’ve only scratched the surface in Oregon.

Rimrock site, the Paisley Caves discoveries—led by Dr. Dennis Jenkins at the University of Oregon—have determined human existence to date back 14,300 years. Discoveries in the eastern U.S. are ranging in the same time frame. Sites in South America are also being dated to around 14,000 years old -- but Rimrock appears to be the oldest so far.

Thomas says there are undoubtedly more sites to be found.

Back to Our Roots Bend’s best festival turns 10

end Roots Revival is back for its 10th annual show Sept. 23-25 and once again, the lineup is even larger and the bench is deeper. The variety of musical genres is also incredibly varied as the stages will sport the likes of blues, bluegrass, hip-hop, electronic, funk, jazz, country and back around to good, old-fashioned rock 'n' roll. With over 100 acts, the fact that the festival still manages to remain free is borderline crazy.

by one perimeter fence, and the area that was under construction last season (the grassy space in front of the newest brewery warehouse), will be an easy access pathway between stage areas.”

While there are too many bands playing to even list here, there are definitely some specific ones not to miss. Deciding whether to catch local hip-hop wunderkind MOWO or punk/reggae thrashers Subliminal (both playing Saturday at

“We always have a great time when we play in Bend.

The beauty of the city comes out through its inhabitants. The crowds in Bend have been good to us and we’re really looking forward to making our first appearance at the Roots Festival as we’ve heard it’s a great party." - Teddy Presberg, pigWar Roots Revival Festival co-founder/ organizer Mark Ransom has seen some new changes come with 2016, even as the center of the event remains strong.

“The footprint of Roots is becoming more defined (now in its third year at the Shevlin-Hixon location), and feeling like a real home,” says Ransom. “Because of construction last season, Revivalists had to exit one area (pouring out their beer or chugging it) and walking up on the sidewalk around the construction to get to the “Bigs” and “Black Butte Porter” stages. This year the fest will be enclosed

8pm on different stages) might be a tough choice, but it’s a good problem to have.

Plus, with other local favorites like the dynamic Corner Gospel Explosion, the brilliant Franchot Tone, the always-excellent Chiringa, the technically flawless Moon Mountain Ramblers or the sweaty dance party of Elektrapod, the festival is truly a gathering of Central Oregon’s finest.

From out of town, pigWar from Portland is a band not to miss. Frontman/founder Teddy Presberg combines modern heavy soul and hard R&B with '70s-style

funk to create a sound completely his own. Presberg says: “We always have a great time when we play in Bend. The beauty of the city comes out through its inhabitants. The crowds in Bend have been good to us and we’re really looking forward to making our first appearance at the Roots Festival, as we’ve heard it’s a great party. We’ve got a special guest singer flying in to do our tour with us, and the festival slot will be our last show of the run, so it should be fire.”

Here’s some other stuff not to miss: The Forgotten Classroom is a badass group of middle school kids who rock covers of stuff like, “All Along the Watchtower” and “Wish You Were Here.” Speaker Minds is a seven-piece hip-hop/funk band from Portland that sounds like a mashup of The Roots and Digable Planets. Two Dollar Bill is a bluegrass/old time band that sounds like it came out of the Great Smoky Mountains yesterday with something to prove. The list goes on (like, seriously, it’s a long list), with each band sounding as interesting and dynamic as the last. Don’t even get me started on how great Redwood Son, Jive Coulis Thomas T. & The Blue Chips, Helga and Butterfly Breakdown are. For real.

This year will also see several new areas and projects. Ransom breaks it down a little: “There’s a new Community Art Garden and Kid Zone. Patrons will have the opportunity to participate in a community canvas project (which will

become the backdrop for the Black Butte Porter stage); to help make a documentary film about Bend Roots, and to silkscreen their own t-shirts. There will be photo booth backdrops created by kiddos in the community, many kids’ activities, and yoga with Julie, Chant and yoga with Santiago, and Circle Singing with Shireen. Since Roots benefits performing arts education in Bend we are offering several free community workshops this year on songwriting, ukulele, singing, drumming, guitar and kids music. This is new and very exciting to me--and a way to build support for Rise Up and our local arts-outreach mission.”

As many longtime residents get priced out of town and the cost of living in Bend raises not by the year but by the day, it’s amazing that a festival like this can still be free to the public. There is a lot of money to be made at Bend Roots Revival, but that would be missing the point. The word “Roots” is right in the title, and Bend’s roots have never been about price gouging or massive and thoughtless expansion. The roots of Bend are its people and its community, and this festival is a gift to both. SW Bend Roots Revival Friday, Sept. 23-Sunday, Sept. 25.

God Loves Ugly

Atmosphere is on the horizon

By Jared Rasic 17

VOLUME 20 ISSUE 37 / September 15, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

ean Daley (AKA Slug) changed my life when I was 21 years old. I was a rock kid, mostly into Built to Spill, Nirvana and Radiohead, but when I heard Atmosphere’s “Lucy Ford” (2001) for the first time I knew that hip-hop music was the gospel and I wanted to spread the good word. Daley formed Atmosphere with Derek Turner (AKA Spawn), who left and was eventually replaced by Anthony Davis (Ant) and they became an indie hip-hop phenomenon.

Atmosphere’s one-two-three punch of “Lucy Ford,” “God Loves Ugly” (2002) and “Seven’s Travels” (2003) cemented Slug and Atmosphere in the underground hip-hop scene. The slowly-building success of Atmosphere wasn’t something Daly expected. “My goal was not to become a rapper or a touring rapper. I was rapping because my friends liked it. We were people that liked rap. I was focused on getting a job in sales that had health insurance and to provide for my family.

When the money started to show up I took a gamble on it and it worked.”

Even though Atmosphere isn’t as huge as acts like Jay-Z or Kanye, it’s still hard to meet someone that’s into hip-hop music who doesn’t have a deep catalogue of his records. He found walking that line of medium-famous to be an interesting challenge. “I wanted to figure out how I could speak to as many people as possible without having to say a bunch of bullshit,” says Daly.

Even after touring almost steadily since 1995, Slug still doesn’t get caught up in the ennui of touring. “Every night there’s an opportunity to improv a new joke or talk some new shit and express what you’re thinking about that day,” says Daly.

“I approach my shows the same way I approach myself: I submit to my music and I submit to my live performance 110 percent. If there’s something that occurred that day or something that’s going on in my life personally or what have you... I bring all that onstage with me and just deal with it in front of an

audience. That’s where I go to work through some of the shit that’s going on inside my head.”

Atmosphere’s new record, “Fishing Blues,” is one of his most laid back, but his anger still bubbles beneath the surface. There’s a track on the album called “Pure Evil,” in which he takes on the concept of police brutality from the POV of the cop. His thought process behind the song is fascinating. “I want to find ways to express my moral code without pounding on a chalkboard and telling people to wear a seatbelt and eat their vegetables” says Daly. “That was the avenue to take with that particular idea without being fucking preachy.”

Slug’s songwriting has always been one of the primary draws of every new Atmosphere record. Daly explains: “It’s always been difficult for me to write songs that

are super direct and just say, ‘Fuck the police.’ Because that’s how I feel. Fuck the police. Disband the police. Unarm the police and take their fucking guns away. It’s so direct it becomes this complicated thing so when you peel some of the layers away and leave the layers laying around and make a mess out of it, sometimes people can come around and pick through some of those peelings of layers and find the parts they feel comfortable singing along with. It’s not just ‘Fuck the police.’ I, myself, appreciate when an artist just says, ‘fuck the police,’ but in the same breath I realize...it’s an easy way out.

It’s a bumper sticker and I’m trying to learn not to be fucking bumper stickers.

It’s a hard thing to learn.”

The message Daly hopes people get from his records is a simple, yet important one: “Hope. To look at a situation with an

eye that isn’t so pessimistic. On a regular basis we’re surrounded by struggle all around us. It might not be an obvious surface struggle, there’s inner struggle, whether you’re struggling from systemic oppression that exists here or you’re a part of the oppressors, there’s still a struggle going on. Existentially, spiritually or straight up physically. With all the things I worry about, the fact that I can still find the hope that I’m looking for to keep me from jumping off the edge of a fucking building. I try to explore, express and communicate that during the shows.”

Central Oregon Symphony celebrates its 50th season

ART WATCH

Sol Alchemy Temple’s grand opening Seasonal transitions were once marked by ritual celebrations that brought communities together to share food, sell wares and enjoy music. On Sept.

24, Sol Alchemy Temple will follow suit, offering people the opportunity to peruse handmade goods by local artists and experience “the way of the Fall Festival” at its Fall Festival and Boutique Grand Opening event.

Recently rebranded, the Sol Alchemy Temple space is shared by a variety of health practitioners including massage therapists, yoga and meditation teachers, energy workers and alternative healing groups. It will also soon be home to a boutique offering items by local artists.

The Central Oregon Symphony has been going strong since 1967. About 880 musicians have played in the orchestra during that time. Current conductor Michael Gesme, upper right, gives a nod to two centuries of music during the upcoming season. Photos courtesy of Central Oregon Symphony.

magine convincing professional musicians to audition for an orchestra that offers three major concerts per season, plays them three times each, and does it all for free. Now imagine accomplishing such a feat 50 years in a row. The Central Oregon Symphony (COS) has been doing just that—and aims to continue doing it.

Now heading into its 50th season, COS has been providing the Central Oregon community with live classical music performances featuring renowned guest artists since 1967. The orchestra is made up of musicians from a variety of backgrounds, mastering their instruments while attending prestigious music schools, local music programs or regional universities.

Since its inception COS has developed a variety of additional concerts and programs for the community, including an annual concert for children, a Young Artist Competition, Music in Public Places chamber concerts, and a Symphony Stars Program that provides music education in Central Oregon’s public schools.

A brief look over the Symphony’s history reveals the breadth of what it has accomplished in its half-century of existence. From launching its first Children’s

Concert in 1973, to forming the Central Oregon Symphony Association (COSA) nonprofit in 1992, as well as two Eastern Oregon tours, it’s clear that the orchestra has flourished.

at the Riverhouse Convention Center in Bend. The Pacific Coast Horns will come from Los Angeles to entertain while attendees enjoy a bistro-style dinner and show.

According to Board Member Joan Hinds, the COSA is compiling information about the Symphony’s 50 years of history and turning it into a booklet to be offered as a part of the 50th anniversary season celebration. Their research has uncovered some interesting facts.

“We have found about 880 people have played in the symphony over the past 50 years,” Hinds says. They also amassed a list of past conductors. “Finding the list of conductors with the right dates was difficult,” says Hinds.

The 50th season schedule includes A Starlight Serenade at Sunriver Observatory in October, featuring vocal music and dessert, as well as the 20162017 concert series boasting a lineup of visiting artists including pianist Kotaro Fukuma and violinist Linda Wang.

As for this year, COS’s current conductor Michael Gesme, describes the season as, “a nod to more than two centuries of orchestral music and musicians.” Gesme recently released the upcoming 50th Anniversary Season musical program, featuring works from composers of six different nationalities, various styles of composition including symphonies, concert and dance, music that was composed as far back as 1786, and music that will be completed in 2017.

The season schedule begins with an anniversary kick-off party on Sept. 25

The season ends with a Musicians’ Appreciation Dinner in May, where current and past orchestra members and COS donors will gather to celebrate COS’s first 50 years.

When asked what the Symphony’s hopes are for the next 50 years, Hinds says, “Since I’ve been here the quality has improved every year. Our hope is that it will continue to flourish.” SW

Founder Breyn Hibbs explains that as her business expanded, she realized its purpose had also evolved. She says, “It’s a Temple because it’s not just about one practice or way, it’s about ‘ancient ways made modern’… and offering them in a way that begins to build bridges between the timelessness and potency of ancient teachings and practices, and the reality of modern-day life.”

For Hibbs, a space focused on the sacred was a natural choice -- as was introducing the boutique and its goods through a fall celebration rooted in rituals. One of those rituals includes laying blankets, instead of setting up booths, to display art for both viewing and sale.

The boutique will house three main categories of art: Tools for Transformation (wands, rattles and other items used in rituals), Art of Food Alchemy (medicinal and high vibrational foods) and Sacred Adornment (jewelry). Featured artists will include Kim Jones Queen, Ondi Hibbs with Bird Lady Photography and Dolly Kaupp with Sacred Awakening.

The festival and grand opening event will begin with an opening circle and then a potluck meal will be offered while artists display and sell their works. The day will conclude with a live Kirtan concert and song circle. SW

Empower Point

Tease does more than titillate

By Jared Rasic 33

VOLUME 20 ISSUE 37 / September 15, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

urlesque is like poetry. Sometimes it’s extremely culturally relevant; other times it fades into the background, but it never goes away completely. (Kinda like pumpkin spice...) In a male-dominated society, burlesque will always remain relevant because it adds a sense of humor and a winking bawdiness to the male (and female) gaze. There is a sense of humor, showmanship and fun to the enterprise that a good majority of strip clubs lack.

Justin Buckles has taken the basic concept of burlesque and morphed it into something he can travel with. As Buckles explains, “Angel Hanson (Ecstacy Inferno) and I created TEASE to bring the art of Burlesque to smaller communities that do not necessarily have a Burlesque outlet. We followed the same pathway that we did when we created the Caravan of GLAM as well. Smaller cities tend to be deprived of performance art and it was, and still is, our goal to create eye-popping, over-the-top stage productions and take them on the road.”

The art of burlesque isn’t really about ogling beautiful women. There are aspects of performance art, ballet, modern dance, theater and standup comedy that date back to the early 16th century.

“Personally, I think burlesque is only really known and understood if you live in a larger city, such as Portland, that has regular burlesque shows,” says Buckles.

“The same thing for drag-based shows as well, hence the Caravan of GLAM. We recently took the show down to Coos Bay and performed at the Egyptian Theatre where we had over 500 in attendance, with more than 50 percent of the crowd raising their hands when Ecstacy Inferno asked them how many have never been to a burlesque show.”

Teasing an audience of strangers is something that takes an incredible amount of self-confidence and a fearlessness that’s rare in the realm of the performance arts. Bringing an audience right up to the brink of satisfaction and then backing

Ladies and gentlemen, the most positively stunning Sandria Dior!

away with a smile is a fine line to walk.

Sandria Dior, a world renowned burlesque performer, talks about her first foray into the world of burlesque: “I had always wanted to get into burlesque after I saw photos of the amazing Catherine d’lish online when I had a monster desktop computer and dial-up internet.

In 2010 when I was asked to perform for the first time, I was nervous as hell but I accepted the booking and that started me on the journey of tease.”

But burlesque isn’t some self-sustaining art form that will continue without fans’ help. “The art form needs some folks to invest in the local shows and performers,” says Dior. “We do so much out of pocket from advertising, flyers, word of mouth, appearances, etc. and we all help each

other out as much as we can. It’s really incredible and admirable what some people in the community have achieved with just their ambition and hard work.

If you admire a show or a performer, come to the shows. You’re investing in us to keep making our costumes better, our acts fierce and our venues to seat you. I get the most joy from seeing a sea of faces having a good time. I love seeing people feel good, smile and enjoy themselves.

Nothing beats that powerful energy radiating from a group, especially when it’s a positive radiance. I love it. It’s addicting!”

Justin Buckles and company have taken the art form of burlesque and transformed it into something to fit any venue and city. While TEASE is a fun show and the audience always has a wild

time, the aspects of self-empowerment and body positivity are what truly stick.

“We are a male-dominated society and anytime a female can get up on stage, demand attention, and make themselves the focal point while exuding confidence, is something that should be appreciated,” says Buckles. “With burlesque you have to love yourself and love your body regardless of size, shape, or color!

Burlesque in extremely empowering to the performers. Burlesque has done all of this from the beginning and, to me, that’s something extremely important.” SW TEASE Burlesque Saturday, Sept. 17, 9pm Volcanic Theatre Pub, 70 SW Century Dr., Bend $15 adv., $20 door Tickets available at bendticket.com

Melts in Your Mouth Bowtie Catering Co. delivers

LITTLE BITES

By Angela Moore

By Jared Rasic 35

Local baristas tell us what other flavors they love for fall Pumpkin Spice Lattes are all the rage – becoming synonymous with things like Ugg boots, yoga pants and a general need to roam in packs of fellow Brandies, Tracis, and anyone who dots the “i” in their name with a heart.

Two food pros have teamed up to create delectable dishes offered by Bowtie Catering Co. Photos by Sydney Goodman.

B

owtie Catering Co. sits in an unassuming strip mall on the south side of Bend, nestled in between a liquor store and a video poker place—not exactly a spot where you would expect to find carefully-prepared dishes and a menu curated for a Pacific Northwest palate. Still, that’s what’s happening.

Bowtie’s space on Hwy 97 was originally used as a commercial kitchen for its catering events, but after word of mouth started spreading, its owners opened the space to the public.

Co-owner and business manager Sanda Costello took an interesting path to running an upscale catering company in Central Oregon. “I came to the States from Romania in 2005 as a college exchange student,” says Costello. “I was studying environmental engineering and hardly spoke any English, so I started working as a server/bartender to try to better my linguistic skills.”

The other owner of the space is Chef Gene Soto. He trained at Western Culinary Institute in Portland before heading to the Oregon coast to be trained even further by Rob Pounding and Jeff James, the executive chef and executive sous chef at Salishan Lodge. After a detour in Washington, Soto served as executive chef at Deschutes Brewery from 2000 until 2007. He then eventually opened (the still dearly-missed) Supervillain Sandwiches in downtown Bend.

Costello and Soto seemed to have

almost met by fate. “I always loved cooking and mostly putting together dinner parties for our friends and family,” says Costello. “Chef Soto catered our son’s birthday when he owned Supervillain Sandwiches. We got talking about food and events and I found out he was an executive chef at Deschutes Brewery in the 2000s, worked at Salishan resort, Skamania Lodge and owned Green Spoon in Walla Walla. Together, we started catering private events, luncheons, weddings and the word started spreading. In 2014, we found the perfect commercial kitchen and almost a year later we decided that we should open it to the public.”

My dining guest and I tried the chicken shawarma and the mac & cheese, both of which exceeded expectations. The shawarma didn’t try to delve too deeply into its Middle Eastern heritage, as the grilled chicken breast was lightly seasoned. Combined with the shredded lettuce, fresh tomato, English cucumber, red onion and the deliciously subtle yogurt-garlic sauce, the shawarma constantly revealed new layers to its flavor.

With the warm and extremely fresh flat bread, the bouquet of ingredients almost melted in my mouth.

The mac & cheese was so wonderfully light that it put most other pasta dishes to shame. As tasty and comforting as mac & cheese normally is, most recipes sit in the belly like a gut bomb. In this

case, the melted cheese was (again) just light enough to make every bite one to fight over, while also not feeling like a nap was in order. The side salad came with a balsamic-mustard dressing that made one or two inappropriate (and delighted) moans come from our table.

Right now, Bowtie’s menu consists of mostly soups, salads and sandwiches, along with a few entrees and specials to keep things fresh—but that will change sooner rather than later. Costello says: “We are working to expand our catering services by collaborating with places like River Run at Eagle Crest, WhiteWater Taphouse, Sip Wine Bar, where we provide course dinner for various occasions like Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, beer pairings etc. and hopefully in the near future, a second, more central cafe location. We recently added beef and salmon burgers with house-cut fries.

Plus, all of our breads are made fresh every morning, we roast our own meats and make our dressings from scratch.”

From what we’ve already seen from their spot in the strip mall, a centralized location will definitely be a welcome addition to Bend’s culinary—and cultural—scene. SW

Yes, pumpkin is delicious. It’s a fall flavor and people are putting it in everything, but how did this whole “PSL” rage happen? Actually…why do any fads happen?

Let’s not dive into that rabbit hole. Instead, let’s check out what else you could be drinking.

With my messy bun on point and my sweater just barely off my shoulder I headed to ask the professionals in the coffee biz, “What should I really be drinking in the fall?”

Todd Yule, Lone Pine Coffee Todd is my go-to when it comes to advice on what to drink. I rarely listen to him, but he is pretty great so I had to ask his professional opinion. “What should people be drinking instead of pumpkin spice lattes? Uhhh, whiskey. Of course.”

Yule…that’s why I love you. Actually, Lone Pine offers an alternative flavor that is not only of the season, but also very Oregon: Hazelnut. “Pumpkin spice can really overpower the coffee itself…We like to create something that captures what we think of when we think of fall and that’s hazelnut.”

Rebecka Sipe: Thump Coffee I asked Rebecka if people have been asking for pumpkin spice yet and her reply?

“Several a day, but we wont be serving them until October. People appear to be on the ‘Starbucks schedule’ (which has been offering this drink since the start of this month),” says Sipe. “I try not to judge, but if you want a drink that still reminds you of fall and you don’t want to come out as a pumpkin spice enthusiast, you can always save your pride and order a traditional cappuccino.”

Really, whatever your fall fashion flavor is, my advice is to order what you want.

So what if you like boyfriend jeans and contouring? Drink whatever makes you happy; maybe just try a few other things while you’re at it. I heard whiskey is a great alternative. SW

Beer Along the Columbia

By Kevin Gifford

Vancouver’s Loowit brewery serves up a rye porter that’s worth making the trip for—though most of the beers mentioned below can also be found on tap at times in Bend.

P

eople from across the continent visit Bend to take in both the inspiring beauty and the inspiring-in-other-ways craft beer at the same time.

Those who live here all year, though, might have a jaded sense of that—like the proverbial New Yorker who’s never been to the Statue of Liberty. To bring back that sense of novelty, why not do a quick road trip of your own?

A perfect start: State Route 14 in Washington, a mostly two-lane road that neatly follows the Columbia River for 180 miles from I-82 in Umatilla to I-5 in Vancouver. From Bend, it’s a relatively quick jaunt from State Route 35 to Hood River—and assuming you avoid the siren song of pFriem beer and Double Mountain pizza, you can cross the bridge and head to Everybody’s Brewing, a beer hall that serves as the de facto social club at White Salmon, Wash., every lunch hour.

Beers such as the Local Logger Lager and Country Boy IPA have been mainstays in Oregon for awhile now, but less appreciated is the experimental streak the brewers there have exhibited lately.

Visit the taproom to pick up a bottle of their barrel-aged sour cherry saison, for example, to be rewarded with Pinot

Noir-aged fruity yumminess, or turn to the Hoppy AF for a rather in-your-face lesson on the region’s hops.

Going west, along a road that snakes through the hills and lakes that hug the Columbia, you’ll find Backwoods Brewing and Walking Man Brewing, located in the small communities of Carson and Stevenson, respectively. Backwoods deserves a visit for its location (the name really ain’t lyin’) and its ales, from the flagship Logyard IPA to the fall-seasonal Winchester Brown. Walking Man’s been around since 2000, meanwhile, and its combination of hoppy and fruit-infused beers turn heads across the region. The cherry stout is a must-try.

Further along SR 14, drivers will find that it quickly expands into urban reality with Camas, Washougal, and Vancouver—an area that’s worth its own column alone. Vancouver itself now has nine breweries and its own Ale Trail-style stamp rally. But just to cap off this particular road trip, you can definitely do worse than visit Loowit, a Timbers-oriented, super dog-friendly downtown joint with a red ale and a rye porter to die for. SW

Now, I could have said the reason I chose “The Disappointments Room” was because the trailer didn’t give much of the film away and that’s always exciting, or that I just love horror movies and want all of them inside me. Both of those reasons are true. But the real truth? The ugly, mirror of the soul truth is that I saw that the film had a 0 percent on Rotten Tomatoes and I just had to see what the hell that looked like.

Guess what? It looks terrible. I wish the film had exceeded expectations or at least been a somewhat watchable 90 minutes, but this is one of the worst movies I have seen in a theater in my entire life… and I’ve seen “Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot” on the big screen.

Kate Beckinsale plays Dana, an architect who moves out to the country with her husband and young son to fix up a big old beautiful mansion. A year earlier they lost their infant daughter and this fixer-upper is supposed to be the kind of project that helps Dana cope with her loss and escape her crippling depression and suicidal thoughts. One day while cleaning, Dana finds a locked and hidden room behind a massive dresser. This room... is the disappointments room.

And it’s haunted. Kinda.

The audience is never sure whether the ghosts of homeowners and dead children past are really there, or whether Dana is just losing her mind because she’s off

of her anti-psychotic medication. That kind of ambiguity works in most films, but this flick has more holes than scenes.

Characters appear and then disappear for the rest of the film. Beckinsale’s entire dramatic monologue is done in the dining room where, apropos of nothing, there is a giant glowing donut sign on the wall. She’s crying over her dead child and every time the camera moves we see DONUTS!!!!! The evil ghost (played by MAJOR FREAKING DAD) becomes super kill crazy for no apparent reason.

A box of keys is introduced in the first act...never to be brought up again.

A ton of re-editing must have been done for this film in post production, because what remains is downright experimental.

no scares, no ending and a plot in which every scene is stolen from a better film.

Normally I’m pretty kind with film reviews because I mostly critique whether the director achieved whatever his or her intention for the film was. The only thing Caruso achieved here was several years in director’s jail and possibly harming the career of everyone involved.

“The Disappointments Room” is not a movie, it’s a joke played on every single person who buys a movie ticket. SW

VOLUME 20 ISSUE 37 / September 15, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

T

here were a few different choices for the two movies I was going to review this week. I knew one of them would be “Sully” because it would have the most cultural relevance, but for the second film I could have gone with “Little Men,” “The Wild Life,” “When the Bough Breaks” or “The Disappointments Room.”

Land of the Free, Home of the Blame "Sully" has all the wrong agendas

By Jared Rasic

The “Miracle on the Hudson” is brought to chilling life in “Sully.”

I

n many ways, Clint Eastwood’s “Sully” is the polar opposite of his 2014 smash hit, “American Sniper.” The story of Chesley Sullenberger’s water landing in the Hudson River didn’t carry much controversy in the press, and most mainstream media outlets posited him as a hero who saved the lives of the 155 people in his care. Yet the film spends a huge chunk of its running time focused on the National Transportation Safety Board’s inquiry of the event, which found that he could have made it back to LaGuardia or Teterboro Airport instead of putting the plane in the Hudson. ‘’American Sniper” told the story of Chris Kyle, a SEAL who became the most lethal sniper in U.S. military history. Some of the accounts in Kyle’s book as well as some of the facts in the film have been questioned, but Eastwood’s film focused more on the way the U.S. government treats vets more than any of the controversy.

Two years after taking a controversial story with rough edges and sanding most of them down, Eastwood and his screenwriters have basically taken a story with a happy ending and no controversy and manufactured it into something else.

U.S. government officials are almost bigger villains than the Taliban in “American Sniper,” just as the NTSB is almost mustache-twirlingly evil in “Sully.”

After Sully lands the plane in the Hudson and all 155 souls are rescued,

he basically spends the rest of the film (along with his co-pilot Jeff Skiles) being persecuted by the NTSB. The officials are looking to blame Sully for the water landing, insisting that every simulation showed he could have successfully made

The real-life heroism of the movie is completely drowned out by the manufactured tension of the artificial villains. it to an airport alive. When Sully figures out a way to prove that he would have killed every passenger if he had tried, the entire audience cheered Tom Hanks’ rousing speech against the idiotic federal baddies.

Depending on which media outlet you read, the real investigation found that the plane only successfully made it to airports in eight of the 15 simulations.

Sully reviewed an early draft of the screenplay and (according to Hanks) thought the real-life NTSB investigation was less of a prosecutorial process, but that it was “inherently adversarial with professional reputations absolutely in the balance.”

As well made as “Sully” is, with East-

wood portraying Sully in an almost saint-like light, and as good as Hanks is at playing a struggling everyman, the film is ultimately an exercise in manipulation. “Sully” portraying bureaucracy as the movie’s villain turns the entire film into a giant straw man argument. Eastwood’s attempt to demonize the NTSB for desperately attempting to lay blame on someone instead portrays Eastwood as an angry old man standing in front of the White House with a burning pitchfork.

In the sold-out auditorium where I saw the film, the room erupted in cheers when Hanks shut down the NTSB with his ninja-like logic and reason—but was sadly silent during the recreation of him saving the lives of 155 people on board US Airways Flight 1549. The real-life heroism of the movie is completely drowned out by the manufactured tension of the artificial villains. A routine government inquiry is made to look like a witch trial, and the quick-witted bad-assery of Chesley Sullenberger comes across as what’s routine. America: Land of the free, home of the blame.

FILM SHORTS By Jared Rasic " Don't Breathe"

Providing private, compassionate euthanasia services for your cats & dogs in the privacy of your pet’s home.

DON’T BREATHE: This is easily one of the most intense movies of the last several years.

When some down-on-their-luck youngsters break into the house of an old blind man, they find horrors they are truly not prepared for.

As the blind man stalks the kids through his dark and disturbing house, they will have to use every tool at their disposal not to end up very, very dead. Soon to be a modern horror classic. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

DON’T THINK TWICE: A comedy/drama about the difficulties of standup comedy. Two members of an improv troupe get their big break while everyone else in the group has to face that they might not make it big after all.

Tin Pan Theater HELL OR HIGH WATER: Coming in at the tail end of summer, “Hell or High Water” is being hailed as one of the best films of the year and one of the best modern westerns since “No Country For Old Men.” This tells the tale of a pair of brothers who rob banks in West Texas to save the family farm. The cast, including Jeff Bridges, Ben Foster and Chris Pine, is flawless and the script by “Sicario’s” Taylor Sheridan is enveloping. Combat blockbuster season with this one. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX KUBO AND THE TWO STRINGS: This new animated gem from Portland-based animation studio Laika has to be seen to be believed. The film has the finest stop-motion animation ever put on film and tells a story that grips the audience right away. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

LITTLE MEN: The new film from the delightful mind that brought us 2014’s heartwarming romantic drama “Love is Strange.”

“Little Men” tells the story of two young men who become fast friends and their parents that pull them apart. Focusing on developing sexuality, gentrification and rising rent, the film is tough and unflinching, but filled with beautiful moments of true humanity. Tin Pan Theater

LO AND BEHOLD- REVERIES OF THE CONNECTED WORLD: Werner Herzog has made some of the finest narratives and documentaries of all time and this one shouldn’t be any different. In this documentary, Herzog takes his typically dry and self-deprecating focus and aims it at the internet, creating something both chilling and thought-provoking. Tin Pan Theater

MORGAN: A great cast is mostly wasted in this fairly generic action/sci-fi/thriller. Kate Mara is a corporate risk assessor who arrives at a hidden science lab to investigate an act of violence committed by an intelligent, super human clone. The storyline veers from fascinating to downright insulting so quickly that it’s almost entertaining. A genuinely disappointing film that has moments of greatness

VOLUME 20 ISSUE 37 / September 15, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

BAD MOMS: It doesn’t look like the funniest movie in the world, but “Bad Moms” sports a phenomenal cast and the writers of the original “Hangover,” so maybe it’s worth more of a chance. Kristen Bell, Mila Kunis and Kathryn Hahn star as a trio of overworked moms who snap and decide to binge on just about any damn thing they choose. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

sprinkled throughout. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

SAUSAGE PARTY: The unconventional tale of a sausage, a lavash, a bagel and a hot dog bun that go on an adventure to find the meaning of life in a massive grocery store.

“Sausage Party” is a deceptively profound look at organized religion and being true to your nature, regardless of how scary it might be. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

SULLY: The combination of Clint Eastwood in the director’s chair and Tom Hanks in front of the camera sounds like a good one, but early word on this is mixed. Hanks plays Captain Chesley “Sully” Sullenberger, the commercial pilot who landed an aircraft in the Hudson River without losing a single one of his 155 passengers. The true story angle is promising, but coming so quickly after Robert Zemeckis’ underrated “Flight,” the film might feel a bit repetitious. See full review on p. 40.

THE DISAPPOINTMENTS ROOM: This one was kept on the shelf for a few years before release and currently holds a zero percent on Rotten Tomatoes, but director DJ Caruso (“The Salton Sea”), actress Kate Beckinsale (“Snow Angels”) and screenwriter Wentworth Miller (“Stoker”) are all undeniably talented. Hopefully, this one is just a case of mismanaged expectations and has a few genuine chills up its sleeve. Beckinsale pays an architect who moves into an old house with her family, only to discover a horrifying secret room. See full review on p. 39. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

THE LIGHT BETWEEN OCEANS: A good, old-fashioned melodrama that takes a few very talented actors and gives them a less-than-intelligent script to contend with.

Michael Fassbender and Alicia Vikander play a lighthouse keeper and his wife who, after a couple of miscarriages, find a baby and a dead body in a rowboat. They bury the body and keep the baby and all kinds of intensely dramatic moments ensue. The film bounces between ludicrous, infuriating and decent. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

THE WILD LIFE: Known as “Robinson Crusoe” everywhere in the world except for the United States, “The Wild Life” is an animated kid flick about Crusoe and all the animal friends he makes on his deserted island.

Judging from the trailers, the humor is aimed squarely at children and the animation is several steps beneath Pixar and Dreamworks, but the youngest of viewers should probably still find something to enjoy. Even then, kids know what good animation is supposed to be, so this might end up being a total wash. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX WHEN THE BOUGH BREAKS: An updated look at the same basic story beats as 1992’s “The Hand that Rocks the Cradle.”

Morris Chestnut and Regina Hall play a young married couple who hire a beautiful woman to be their surrogate. The young woman moves into the house with the married couple and becomes more and more obsessed with the husband as her pregnancy gets further along.

Director Jon Cassar helmed 65 episodes of “24,” so hopefully, he can bring some of that tension over to what sounds like a very tepid tale. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX SW

If your boss tells you to jump off a bridge, would you do it?

43

By Russ Axon

“The other day, I did my 123rd jump off this bridge, so if I thought there was any chance of something failing, I wouldn’t be jumping,” Scott says.

After this feat, the Source Weekly’s Russ Axon is earning the title, “Danger Boy.” Photo by Brian Jennings.

A

s I stood on the edge of the platform—my toes gripping the carpet that separated me from a 300-foot drop—I tried not to look down. Otherwise I might not jump.

And I wanted to jump.

Crazy, right? Not entirely.

This past weekend I was on assignment at Central Oregon Bungee Adventures, a company operating from High Bridge over the Crooked River 29 miles north of Bend. From May through October, it’s the tallest commercial jump in North America at 250 feet. I went to see if I could muster up the courage for one jump, but thanks to the beautiful scenery, a reassuring staff, and a reckless, powerful desire to face my fears, I jumped three times.

Jump 1 James Scott is the owner and operator of Central Oregon Bungee Adventures (COBA). The Bend resident is what some would call an “adrenaline addict.”

“I did my first bungee jump in ’92, and I’ve been jumping ever since around the world. I also skydive, BASE jump, wingsuit,” he says. “I’ll jump six times a day.”

Scott was originally looking for a base jumping location, but quickly realized that High Bridge would be perfect for bungee jumps. After a couple years, he was able to start COBA as a pilot program with Oregon State Parks.

With Broken Top Mountain across the way and bald eagles for neighbors,

it’s not a bad office from which to work. To that end, Scott and his team also strive to preserve their environment by cleaning up trash.

“On slower days or down days, we use our winch and we go down (to the river),” he says. “We’ve pulled couches out of here, TVs out of here, which is really mind-boggling: someone had to do physically more work to bring a couch out here to throw it off the bridge.”

As I leaped out for my first jump, I focused on the environment to keep my mind occupied. The river was serene—even as it rushed toward me at 70 mph.

Want to see the jump in action?

Check out bendsource.com for video.

Jump 2 Luckily, the bungee cord did its job and I stayed high and dry above the river. As I smoothly bounced back up, briefly feeling like a weightless astronaut, I had to admire how flawlessly the gear worked. Jumpers are strapped into harnesses similar to rock climbing gear, and then hooked up to the bungee cord, an impossibly elastic yet sturdy invention.

All of COBA’s equipment is custom made. While many bungee jump operations exclusively use one bungee cord for all their guests, COBA has multiple cords custom made for different weights (between 90-300 lbs.). Even the truck was designed specifically for High Bridge.

When I get back to the top, there’s not enough time to catch my breath before the team asks if I want to jump again. This time, Scott challenges me to keep my feet together for style points.

Jump 3 On the final jump the team challenges me to jump backwards, or in other words, blindly. My initial fear creeps back, but Scott says that’s a good thing.

“There’s nothing natural about jumping off a 300-foot bridge, so you should be afraid,” Scott says. “If someone comes here and says they’re not afraid, they’re either lying or something’s wrong with them. … It’s about being afraid, being terrified, overcoming that fear and still performing, and having the rush of a lifetime.”

COBA’s pilot program ends at the end of next month, but Scott hopes to become a permanent fixture next year.

“It’s pretty amazing to see the level of stoke on people’s faces, to overcome that fear, to challenge themselves,” he says. “To come back up and realize that they accomplished something that maybe they thought they would never be able to do.”

As I let go of the railing and fall backwards 250 feet, my eyes wide with terror and excitement all at once, I know exactly what he’s talking about.

“One of the hurdles that we had to overcome by opening up here in this location is we weren’t allowed to attach to the bridge because it’s a historic monument. So we designed this truck that we run our operation off of,” Scott says. The team also runs a redundant system, meaning every piece of equipment is backed up in case a failure does occur.

Evolution of the Sunriver Nature Center and Observatory

By Jim Anderson 47 VOLUME 20 ISSUE 37 / September 15, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

Board member Harry Hamilton and Sunriver Nature Center Director Jennifer Curtis consider the life of our native bears, from the inside out. Photo by Jim Anderson.

I

f there’s one constant in nature, it’s change. Some people call it evolution and scoff at the idea, but as you look around there’s no denying that, given a certain set of circumstances, you adapt and change, or die.

This is also true with facilities that serve the public. Right here in Deschutes County we have a humdinger: the Sunriver Nature Center and Observatory, which has been producing wonderful educational programs about the nature of Central Oregon since 1973.

I can remember vividly—even with my oncoming loss of memory—the first time I experienced the value of a nature center. I was eight years old and had just walked into Peabody Museum at Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut. I was bowled over by the ancient triceratops skeleton; it changed the way I think, the way I live, and many of my activities as I “grew up.”

many years ago, I would make a mark on a map where lightning hit. As soon as I was off duty I went looking for fulgurites.

Sadly, I’ve never found one…But I did find the imprint of where great balls of lightning rolled away from a giant old ponderosa pine that was split wide open by a colossal strike.

I see changes in nature all around me.

The gray squirrels that make a nuisance of themselves messing around with our bird feeders were not here when I rolled into Bend on my Harley in 1951; neither were the striped skunks that are slowly driving off our native spotted skunk.

And then there’s the present Nature Center and Observatory at Sunriver, that began life as an “Ecologium” conceived

by Bob Royston, the original land planner who gave life to Sunriver. This sign was erected on the Great Meadow in 1971 and was—and still is—a message for residents and visitors alike.

The other exhibit at Peabody I can remember is the display of fulgurites— those formations of sand or sediment fused by lightning strikes. The bottom of a long, welded sandy shoreline was on the first floor of the museum and the top was on the second floor. From that day forward, every thunderstorm I witnessed sent me looking for fulgurites. The last time I was in Peabody the triceratops was still there, along with hundreds of other exciting exhibits, including a life-size replica of a Dodo bird.

John Gray of Portland was the chief spark plug. He and another great thinker, Don McCallum, got Bob involved right from the get-go. I was fortunate to talk Mr. Gray into hiring me to turn the ecologium into reality by giving life to it in what was then a laundromat in Abbot House, near where The Village is today.

I thought the title “Ecologium” was a little too formal, so I asked Royston if we could call it the “Sunriver Nature Center.” He went for it, and as they say, “The rest is history.”

When I was the lookout on Lava Butte

When I left Sunriver, Jay Bowerman

stepped in and made it really fly. His plan got the homeowners into it, and the next step was to add the observatory, improve the wildlife rehab facility, create educational exhibits and build the Pozzi lecture hall.

tarium theater is still on its bucket list, as the Board has set aside the area to build it. When it gets the funding, the plan is to build a 120-seat planetarium theater which could also show movies and live presentations in theater-style seating.

All during the year there are special programs in the Pozzi Education Center, located right next door to the Nature Center. Among them is the annual birthday celebration for our late poet laureate, William Stafford, on or about Jan. 17.

Bend high schools participate while others in the Bend/Sunriver community read Stafford’s works and their own poetry during the celebration.

Nature Center Director Jennifer Curtis says, “It seems like everywhere I go, no one has ever heard of SNCO (Sunriver Nature Center & Observatory) which I feel sad and discouraged about. We are extremely special and I want to continue providing outstanding opportunities to our Central Oregon students, teachers, families, nature lovers, visitors, and more.”

Fundraising Efforts

A suggestion: The next time you’re headed south on 97, carve out time to stop at Sunriver. Follow the signs to the Nature Center and Observatory.

Now, there’s a fundraiser underway for the observatory’s Stairway to the Stars expansion—including another roll-off roof east of the observatory and six more piers for telescopes. The fundraising goal is $250,000.

The next project on the list is new improvements and expansion of the parking lot. With the observatory overflowing on summer nights, they’re currently turning people away, and they’re also hoping to add overflow parking behind the observatory. The observatory’s Astronomer-To-Go program offers daytime and nighttime programs at schools throughout the tri-county area. The staff also wants to able to take solar and nighttime telescopes into schools.

The observatory has many smaller projects planned, and the concept of a plane-

And, about those beautiful roundabouts in Sunriver: I had the privilege of being in a planning meeting when the superintendent said to Royston, “About those roundabouts, Bob, they’re going to take up a lot of room where houses could be built and they’re going to slow people down…are they really necessary?

Royston stood up, and with a suggestion of a smile on his face he replied, “Yes, Len, they are necessary. Why would anyone want to live in this beautiful paradise and rush from one place to the other?

Roundabouts slow people down so they can appreciate the beauty of the land.”

And so they do. SW

ADVICE GODDESS

DO WHAT MAKES YOU HAPPY!

Buddy Surfing

I dragged my boyfriend into the makeup store Sephora, and he said, “Save your money! You don’t need any of this stuff.

I like you better without makeup.” Huh? Why is there a huge makeup industry when so many men say they don’t even like makeup?

This guy and I have been friends with benefits for six months. We were casual friends for two years prior to hooking up, but we have gotten much closer since.

So, can FWB things ever turn into real relationships, or did we blow our chance?

—Pretty Confused A friend of mine, bioethicist Alice Dreger, tweeted, “True story: I was on Oprah for a show about how appearance doesn’t matter and there was a whole guy tasked with doing just her eyelashes.”

A whole lot of us are in some denial about makeup. And sure, there are men who really do like women better without a drop of the stuff. And then there are those who just think they do—like the men on Reddit who posted all of these supposed “no makeup!” photos of female celebs. I particularly loved one of Jenna Jameson that a guy captioned “before all the surgeries and without makeup.” Meanwhile, tiny type below the photo lists the makeup and hair goo she actually has on. My other favorite was one of Rihanna, who also very clearly was not sans maquillage. Guys, sorry, but cat-eye liquid eyeliner does not appear naturally on the female eye in the wild.

Biological anthropologist Douglas Jones finds that men are attracted to women with somewhat “neotenous” features— meaning somewhat babylike ones like big eyes, full lips, a small jaw and chin, and clear skin—which correlate with health and fertility. So, basically, what we call “beauty” is evolution’s version of a street-corner sign spinner: “Genes passed on here!!! Best babies in town!!!”

In other words, makeup is fake-up—a woman’s way of making herself out to have more neotenous features and thus a higher mate value than she actually does. (The male version of this is leasing a top-of-theline Tesla while living in a tent in Grandma’s backyard.)

So, a man will think he has an aversion to makeup, but it’s really an aversion to being deceived by it. This doesn’t mean you have to stop wearing it. Just keep in mind that—except for special occasions and those special dudes who are into your looking like your office is a pole—men generally prefer the “natural look.” Of course, the reality is, this sort of “natural” is about an hour and a dozen products away from being “au naturel.” What ultimately matters is that you don’t look so dramatically different in makeup that when your boyfriend bumps into the barefaced you at the fridge in the wee hours, he puts his hands up and yells, “Take whatever you want; just let me live!”

SISTERS 51 VOLUME 20 ISSUE 37 / September 15, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

Casualties of War Paint

—Hoping Friends-with-benefits arrangements are, to some degree, replacing dating. Unfortunately, trying to turn an FWB thing into a relationship can be like trying to return a shirt. One you’ve worn. For a while.

You march straight up to the counter and lay the thing out. The guy at the register frowns: “Ma’am, Macy’s closed six years ago. This is Chipotle now.”

It’s helpful to understand what anthropologist Helen Fisher and her colleagues have discovered—that lust, love, and attachment aren’t just emotions; they are motivational systems (ultimately for the purpose of reproduction and child rearing). Lust eventually wanes (which makes sense, because “Ohhh, baby” needs to give way to feeding the baby). The neurochemistry behind lust “can trigger expressions of attachment,” Fisher explains. However, in men, high testosterone—in general or from having sex—“can reduce attachment.” This is probably more likely if a man has a “high baseline level of testosterone,” which is typically reflected in a strong jaw and chin, a muscular body, and dominant behavior.

Because you two were friends first and seem to care about each other, maybe you can be more than sex friends. Tell him you really enjoy hanging with him, and ask whether he’d be up for more than FWB. But take the low-pressure approach: You don’t want an answer on the spot; you’d just like him to think about it. This should make you seem less desperate and possibly let him feel like having more was his idea.

If he wants less, you should probably stop seeing him—at least naked—for a while.

He may end up missing you, which could energize his interest in you in a way FWB tends not to do. (They call it “the thrill of the chase,” not the thrill of “you can text any day at 2 a.m. and she’ll let you come over.”)

ASTROLOGY

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Caution: You may

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): “Brainwashing” is a word with negative connotations. It refers to an intensive indoctrination that scours away a person’s convictions and replaces them with a new set of rigid beliefs. But I’d like to propose an alternative definition for your use in the coming days. According to my astrological analysis, you now have an extraordinary power to thoroughly wash your own brain—thereby flushing away toxic thoughts and trashy attitudes that might have collected there. I invite you to have maximum fun as you make your inner landscape clean and sparkly.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): My astrological divinations suggest that a lightning storm is headed your way, metaphorically speaking. But it shouldn’t inconvenience you much—unless you do the equivalent of getting drunk, stumbling out into the wasteland, and screaming curses toward heaven. (I don’t recommend that.) For best results, consider this advice: Take shelter from the storm, preferably in your favorite sanctuary. Treat yourself to more silence and serenity than you usually do. Meditate with the relaxed ferocity of a Zen monk high on Sublime Emptiness. Got all that? Now here’s the best part: Compose a playfully edgy message to God, telling Her about all the situations you want Her to help you transform during the next 12 months.

SAGITTARIUS 22-Dec. 21):

(Nov.

Novelist Tom Robbins said this about my work: “I’ve seen the future of American literature and its name is Rob Brezsny.” Oscar-winning actress Marisa Tomei testified, “Rob Brezsny gets my nomination for best prophet in a starring role. He’s a script doctor for the soul.” Grammy Award-winning singer-songwriter Jason Mraz declared, “Rob Brezsny writes everybody’s favorite astrology column. I dig him for his powerful yet playful insights, his poetry and his humor.” Are you fed up with my boasts yet, Sagittarius? I will spare you from further displays of egomania under one condition: You have to brag about yourself a lot in the coming days—and not just with understated little chirps and peeps. Your expressions of self-appreciation must be lush, flamboyant, exultant, witty, and sincere.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): By normal standards, your progress should be vigorous in the coming weeks. You may score a new privilege, increase your influence, or forge a connection that boosts your ability to attract desirable resources. But accomplishments like those will be secondary to an even more crucial benchmark: Will you understand yourself better? Will you cultivate a more robust awareness of your strengths and weaknesses, your needs and your duties? Will you get clear about what you have to learn and what you have to jettison?

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): I’m confident that you would never try to sneak through customs with cocaine-laced goat meat or a hundred live tarantulas or some equally prohibited contraband. Please use similar caution as you gear up for your rite of passage or metaphorical border crossing. Your intentions should be pure and your conscience clear. Any baggage you take with you should be free of nonsense and delusions. To ensure the best possible outcome, arm yourself with the highest version of brave love that you can imagine.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Should you be worried if you have fantasies of seducing a deity, angel, or superhero? Will it be weird if some night soon you dream of an erotic rendezvous with a mermaid, satyr, or centaur? I say no. In fact, I’d regard events like these as healthy signs.

They would suggest that you’re ready to tap into mythic and majestic yearnings that have been buried deep in your psyche. They might mean your imagination wants to steer you toward experiences that will energize the smart animal within you. And this would be in accordance with the most exalted cosmic tendencies.

Try saying this affirmation: “I am brilliantly primal. I am wildly wise. I am divinely surprising.”

ARIES (March 21-April 19): What should you do if your allies get bogged down by excess caution or lazy procrastination? Here’s what I advise: Don’t confront them or berate them. Instead, cheerfully do what must be done without their help. And what action should you take if mediocrity begins to creep into collaborative projects? Try this: Figure out how to restore excellence, and cheerfully make it happen. And how should you proceed if the world around you seems to have fallen prey to fear-induced apathy or courage-shrinking numbness? My suggestion: Cheerfully kick the world’s butt— with gentle but firm good humor.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): What do you hope to be when you are all grown up, Gemini?

The coming weeks will be a favorable time to entertain fantasies like these—to dream about your future success and happiness. You are likely to generate good fortune for yourself as you brainstorm and play with the pleasurable possibilities. I invite you to be as creative as you dare.

tor: I have been trying my best to body-surf the flood of feelings that swept me away a few weeks ago. So far I haven’t drowned! That’s good news, right? But I don’t know how much longer I can stay afloat. It’s hard to maintain so much concentration. The power and volume of the surge doesn’t seem to be abating. Are there any signs that I won’t have to do this forever?

Will I eventually reach dry land? - Careening Crab.” Dear Careening: Five or six more days, at the most: You won’t have to hold out longer than that. During this last stretch, see if you can enjoy the ride more. Re-imagine your journey as a rambunctious adventure rather than a harrowing ordeal. And remember to feel grateful: Not many people have your capacity to feel so deeply.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): If there can be such a thing as a triumphant loss, you will achieve it sometime soon. If anyone can slink in through the back door but make it look like a grand entrance, it’s you. I am in awe of your potential to achieve auspicious reversals and medicinal redefinitions. Plain old simple justice may not be available, but I bet you’ll be able to conjure up some unruly justice that’s just as valuable. To assist you in your cagey maneuvers, I offer this advice: Don’t let your prowess make you overconfident, and always look for ways to use your so-called liabilities to your advantage.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): For the foreseeable future, your main duty is to be in love. Rowdily and innocently in love. Meticulously and shrewdly in love. In love with whom or what? Everyone and everything—or at least with as much of everyone and everything as you can manage.

I realize this is a breathtaking assignment that will require you to push beyond some of your limitations and conjure up almost superhuman levels of generosity. But that’s exactly what the cosmic omens suggest is necessary if you want to break through to the next major chapter of your life story.

Rousing connections could become almost routine, and useful revelations may proliferate. Are you prepared to fully accept this surge of grace? Or will you be suspicious of the chance to feel soulfully successful? I hope you can find a way to at least temporarily adopt an almost comically expansive optimism. That might be a good way to ensure you’re not blindsided by delight.

Should you have to stay in prison when your crime is no longer a crime?

Last week, Smoke Signals detailed the difficulties facing people who have been convicted of cannabis-related felonies. Even after repaying their debt to society, these folks have great difficulty finding jobs, housing, loans and other basic necessities of modern life in America. But what about those who are still imprisoned for their crimes? Should someone stay in prison when their “crime” is no longer a crime? Should someone continue to serve a sentence that goes well beyond what would now be given?

Thanks to mandatory minimum sentencing laws and drug laws requiring lengthy sentences for drug-related crimes, there are thousands of people in state and federal prisons around the country serving decades-long sentences, or even life sentences, for selling cannabis – something that can now be a legal, tax-paying business in Oregon and other states.

President Obama spent most of his two terms in office ignoring this issue, even though he was reportedly a “recreational” cannabis user during his youth.

Under the Constitution, the President has broad powers to address perceived inequities in the criminal justice system.

Obama has the power to pardon those convicted of federal crimes, completely removing any legal liabilities associated with the conviction. He also has the power to commute sentences, releasing a prisoner immediately or at a time he specifies.

Amid shockingly bipartisan sentiment that America’s drug laws have gone too

far, Obama has recently taken action.

In 2011, then-Attorney General Eric Holder announced a clemency initiative that made approximately 10,000 federal prisoners eligible for either immediate release or a reduced sentence. Due to bureaucratic red tape though, nothing happened until 2014, when the Justice Department attempted to fast-track the process by focusing on the worst casesthose who have already served at least 10 years, have no history of violence and no ties to criminal organizations.

So far this month, Obama has commuted 111 sentences, bringing the total to 673, far more than any other President.

Still, it’s estimated that more than 3,200 additional prisoners meet the narrow criteria Obama has laid out. The process is slow, requiring review of each case individually. Observers report that the program is plagued by inefficiency and poor organization, and it remains to be seen how many eligible prisoners will actually receive relief before Obama leaves office early next year.

Perhaps most importantly for Oregonians though: the President has no power over those convicted of state crimes.

That power lies with our governor— and there’s no doubt the taxpayers are paying to keep many people imprisoned even after the underlying crime has become moot. Although the Legislature has acted to reduce cannabis-related sentences, Gov. Brown has apparently taken no action to commute the sentences of those still imprisoned. Although the end of a term is usually when executives take such action, the fact that Gov. Brown is running for another term may make such action unlikely.
