In the Sep. 15 issue, the article “Empower Point” misspelled Sandria Doré’s name. We apologize for the errors.

IN RESPONSE TO, “SAY NO TO NATIONAL FOOD CHAINS,” (9/15): Steven, Steven, Steven (not the actor): If you want to stop national chains from landing in Bend, you’re too late. That ship has sailed. Also, Cracker Barrel is not fast food, and North Highway 97 is not a “hip vibe” area. Relax dude. I’m happy to take your vacant seat at the Barrel for some biscuits and gravy.

CITY COUNCIL RACE Candidate Bill Mosely is now blaming the entire Bend City Council (if his door hanger is to be believed) for imposing “roadblocks” to affordable housing.

In addition, he accuses councilors of “picking fights.”

Let’s remember that one of these fights grew out of the City’s desire for the Park District to follow its lead and create more affordable housing by waiving SDC charges.

An OPB news item from July 21, in describing still another City policy that encourages workforce housing, acknowledged “Portland and other Oregon cities are now following Bend’s lead on affordable housing fees.”

I would rather my elected City officials fight for me and my community, rather than read from the script provided them by powerful donors. (Mr. Mosely has already been the recipient of a $1000 contribution from Central Oregon Association of Realtors.)

Mr. Mosely, from his website, apparently swears by the “entrepreneurial ecosystem” approach to social economics, which—as in Silicon Valley—can lead to dislocation, homelessness, and inequality.

Give me a fighter over a script reader any day.

In the Sep. 8 issue, the article “Art on the Walls” misspelled Douglas Robertson’s name.

IN RESPONSE TO “RARE SIGHTING: THE SIERRA NEVADA RED FOX,” (9/22): Hi Jim, I'm sure you don't know me. I have bumped into you at the Eagle Watch a couple times and read your columns in the Source on a regular basis. I just finished your piece on the SVRF and think we saw one. It may not be of use as it was several years ago and we don't have a photo. In the Fall of 2007 we were moving west to what turned out to be Bend. On the way, we stopped at Crater Lake NP and hiked up Mt Garfield. On the way up we witnessed what was likely the most exciting wildlife encounter I have ever experienced. A fox and a pine marten in a stare down and eventual chase. The pine marten made it but just barely. After reading your article just now, I showed my partner, who was with me on that hike, the photo in the Source. He said the fox we saw had the same white on the end of its tail. Now I would not possibly remember this but he is a photographer and has an amazing memory for details—especially in images that he keeps in his mind. I have no doubt that if he says that fox had white on the end of its tail, that it did. I hope this info is helpful in some way and I very much appreciate your strong viewpoints on protecting and preserving the natural environment! Thanks for all you do!

IN RESPONSE TO LISA LOO’S COMMENT ON, “FROM COMMUNITY ACTIVIST TO LONGTIME MAYOR,” (9/8): Source Weekly recently published an op-ed by Ms. Lisa Loo. While her points about affordability and stewardship of public funds are well taken, there are a number of misstatements that require correction. Her comments about our mayor, Jim Clinton, are her own, but I have found him by far to be one of the most responsible and even-handed individuals with whom I have had the honor to serve outside or inside of government.

Mayor Clinton has been a prudent steward of our local government for more than a decade and Bend will miss him on council, as will I. When it comes to responsible use of public funds, put me at the front of the line. But let’s get our facts straight.

Property taxes in Deschutes County

Steven Marquess captures a kayaker catching a wave. Follow Marquess @sleepy._._ on Instagram.

have little to do with the City of Bend and are set through the county tax assessor’s office. Bend City Council does not have the power to levy taxes at all. Frustration about taxes should be directed to the right place, but it does bear mentioning that Oregon ranks in the lower half of states for property tax, and Bend has tax rates far below other cities in Central Oregon.

Comments about the fuel tax are also off the mark. Bend continues to lack adequate funding to improve and maintain our roads. Suggestions that we somehow found enough money in the budget are based on false statements by dissenting voices more caught up in ideology than actual budget analysis.

Let’s let the numbers speak for themselves while we continue to look for ways to improve our roads.

Finally, the letter was correct to call out the question of funding priorities that led to construction of a whitewater park on the Deschutes River. However, once again, the funding for that project came from Bend Parks and Recreation, an entirely different government entity that had nothing to do with either Mayor Clinton or the City of Bend. In fact, although parks are funded through their own county taxing process, like the City of Bend, they have no power to levy taxes themselves. Instead, money for the park came from a ballot measure passed by Bend residents in 2012.

I share concerns about how local government operates and the disconnect that

sometimes develops between citizens and elected officials but let’s not blame an outstanding Mayor for issues that the letter writer clearly didn’t understand.

Let’s keep the discourse civilized and place blame where it’s due, not at the feet of an outstanding public servant.

City of Bend Measure 9-110 Recreational Marijuana Sales Tax In case you’re not up to speed on the amount of tax revenue that retail recreational cannabis sales are bringing into the state of Oregon, check out the feature story in this week. (“Ganja Grows Up,” page 9.) The short version: An estimated $43 million will be collected in Oregon marijuana taxes in 2016 alone.

Whatever your thoughts are about personal consumption of marijuana, that’s a lot of money.

The short version: An estimated $43 million will be collected in Oregon marijuana taxes in 2016.

VOTE YES ON BEND MEASURE 9-110

As it stands now, the tax on recreational marijuana sits at 25 percent. That’s set to go down to 17 percent in January when the Oregon Liquor Control Commission takes over the regulation of marijuana.

It’s the perfect opportunity for cities— including the City of Bend—to step in and get their cut. With a vote of “yes” on Bend Measure 9-110, the City of Bend will be able to collect a 3 percent tax on the sale of recreational marijuana in the city.

With legalization in place, there is no reason not to vote yes. Even with the addition of a 3 percent city recreational pot tax, local (and visiting) stoners will still be paying less tax than they have previously. Also of note, marijuana cardholders continue to be exempt from taxation.

The percentage doled out to the City of Bend will go toward the City’s general fund—the money used for fire and police, as well as any general city expenditures. As Bend faces the continual challenges of funding improvement projects and planning for growth, a sales tax on an item frequently consumed by tourists and locals alike should be one highly-welcomed piece of the funding puzzle. We simply can’t afford to turn down that revenue. Vote Yes on Bend Measure 9-110.

Voters are busy people. We all have jobs, homes, families and activities—and so when that ballot arrives in the mail, people often rely only on their voter’s pamphlet to apprise them of the issues.

That’s exactly why endorsement pages such as this are so important—giving people another perspective on the candidates and the measures that’ll have an impact on our lives. Even when we’re personally conflicted about endorsing any candidate in a certain race, we have a mandate to do so.

The candidates, meanwhile, have to do their part. To help swing voters, they can canvas, post advertisements and participate in debates that give us a sense of what they have to offer. Most importantly, to be taken seriously they have to raise money.

That is, unless they don’t.

In the race between U.S. Representative Greg Walden (R) and Jim Crary (D), both sides are guilty of not doing their part for the voters. Walden, according to Crary, has not just said “no” to a debate against Crary—he’s simply avoided contact all together, which is not uncommon for Walden in these races. Crary—an attorney and longtime corporate negotiator— meanwhile, has run what could be called “campaign light.” He’s very light on ads, has turned down the opportunity to use the Oregon Democrats’ campaign bus, and has even sent back money sent to him by supporters. He gets an “F” for effort.

All Crary would have to do is touch briefly on Walden’s voting record in order to sway many voters in this district. In 2006, Walden voted yes to define marriage as only between one man and one woman.

In 2011 Walden voted yes on barring the Environmental Protection Agency from regulating greenhouse gases. In 2013, Walden sponsored no permits for legal pesticide runoff into lakes and streams.

In 2009, he voted against four weeks of paid parental leave for federal employees, and voted no on expanding the Children’s Health Insurance Program. It wouldn’t take much to convince many voters that Crary is a better choice. However, you probably haven’t heard of Crary and, without a sound campaign fundraising mechanism you won’t.

This race is “campaign light,” but we still say vote for Jim Crary for the U.S. House.

Reppin’ Mother Earth Climate Change Conference on Tap for Bend

By Brian Jennings

VOLUME 20 ISSUE 39 / September 29, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

end’s climate is warming and the rate is accelerating, according to data from the National Weather Service.

With that information in hand, climate change experts will gather in Bend October 3-4 to motivate people to take action. Key topics include the economics of going green and how businesses benefit by reducing their carbon footprint.

The Source Weekly spoke with several of the headline speakers in advance of the conference: Worthy Brewing – An Emphasis on Green Worthy Brewing’s founder Roger Worthington says his business is saving money with its many green initiatives.

The brewery uses solar panels to generate its own power while helping to reduce greenhouse pollutants. He says Worthy has received tax credits, rebates and depreciation benefits that have reduced up-front costs. On the back end, he says the power company is paying Worthy thousands of dollars a year for sending power to the overall grid.

Worthy has a 50 Kilowatt solar panel system and a hot water collector system that pre-heats its water on the roof.

He estimates $10,000 a year in energy savings from Pacific Power which depends—to a large extent—on coal.

Solar also heats its potable water, reducing reliance on natural gas. In all, Worthington estimates his brewery reduces carbon emissions by 100,000 pounds of CO2 annually.

Association, promoting solar options throughout Oregon. Solar was seen as a fringe phenomenon that served off-grid needs for many years, he says. “Solar isn’t alternative anymore. It’s entering the mainstream.” He says the price has been dropping significantly, making it a real option for both large and small operations.

The average home system today has a production capacity of between 4 and 5

“Since 1975 the annual mean temperature has risen 0.26 degrees Fahrenheit per decade at Bend, or about 1.04 degrees Fahrenheit of total warming.”

—MICHAEL MURPHY NATIONAL WEATHER SERVICE CLIMATE PROGRAM LEADER

“Squandering is a sin,” says Worthington.

So how to get started? Worthington says, “Just do it. Get ahead of the curve. Invest voluntarily before it’s mandated out of necessity. Show your customers and community that you care, and be a role model. You wouldn’t toss your litter on your front yard. Why would you knowingly litter the air and water with waste by-products?”

A Solar Resurgence Jeff Bissonnette is Executive Director of Oregon Energy Solar Industries

kilowatts, which can cover up to about 60 percent of energy needs per year.

“You pay for a lot of energy upfront.” He estimates a return on investment at about 7 to 9 years on average. “It’s a long-term investment that adds value to the home.

After that, it’s basically free energy as long as the sun shines.”

Bissonnette says that, with reduced costs, the solar business is growing. He says there are about 150 companies that are participating within the industry, employing approximately 3,000 people

in Oregon. And major solar companies are exploring installation of large solar complexes in Eastern Oregon.

One 8-megawatt facility will soon open near Lakeview, which could power about 4,000 homes. Another planned near the Lakeview airport would be much larger at 45 megawatts. “Oregon is beginning to hit its stride with solar power,” he says.

Oregon’s Largest Community Solar Project Jeff Beaman of Central Electric Cooperative in Bend/Redmond says Central Oregon is one of the most viable locations for solar power in the state, with abundant sunshine and relatively mild temperatures. The Cooperative operates the largest community solar project in Oregon with 700 Solar World panel, all ­manufactured in Oregon. Its nearly 200,000 watt facility can be expanded to 500,000 watts as needed. Cost, however, is still a hurdle and the project is funded entirely by co-op members who voluntarily support the promotion of renewable energy.

Weather & Climate Trends Another keynoter is meteorologist Michael Murphy, a National Weather Service climate program leader. Based in Pendleton, Murphy cites studies showing temperatures rising in the Pacific Northwest and Bend. “Temperatures increased across the Northwest from 1895 to 2011 with a regional average warming of about

1.3 degrees Fahrenheit,” he says. Most of that has occurred since 1975. “Since 1975 the annual mean temperature has risen 0.26 degrees Fahrenheit per decade at Bend, or about 1.04 degrees Fahrenheit of total warming.”

He says that overnight low temperatures are rising the fastest over the past century in and around Bend while average temperatures, including daytime high temperatures, have held steady or have only begun to rise slowly since 1975. But, at that current rate of increase—which forecasters expect to accelerate—that would equate to a 2 degree rise in average temperatures over current levels by the year 2100.

Murphy says the trend toward warmer overnight low temperatures would have a profound impact on the region. “This can certainly have an impact on local winter recreation. More rain may fall through the winter months, with higher snow levels, even during mid-winter, impacting the lower elevation ski areas, sno-parks, and snow mobile trails.”

Registration Registration for the conference, taking place at the Mt. Bachelor Village Conference Center, can be completed online at 350deschutes.org. The full cost includes all presentations for $25 per individual— or register for evening keynotes from 7-8:30pm for $10. Students with ID are free. SW

Third Street Sidewalk Construction Begins

“Redmond Five” Defendant Could Get Parole

Traffic on Bend’s Third Street will be slower going for the coming months, with the launch of the sidewalk improvement project on the south end of town. The City of Bend began work on Third Street between Wilson Avenue and Powers Road this week.

Drivers can expect single-lane traffic between Wilson and Powers from 5 am to 2 pm from now until the arrival of winter. Crews will resume work on the area in March 2017, with a projected finish date of July 2017.

One of the defendants accused in the beating and murder of Redmond woman Barbara Thomas in 2001 may be eligible for parole—eventually.

According to the Deschutes County District Attorney’s office, defendant Justin Link was re-sentenced on 19 charges—including Aggravated Murder—on September 22. He was one of five teens implicated in the crime, which happened when Link was just 17.

The other four defendants, including Seth Koch—accused of firing the fatal shot against Thomas—Lucretia Karle, Ashley Summers, and the victim’s son, Adam Thomas —the only adult defendant—all pleaded guilty to aggravated murder. Link did not take a plea deal and his case went to trial.

The project is part of an overall effort aimed at making Bend’s sidewalks more accessible for wheelchairs and pedestrians. Currently, parts of that section of Third Street lack the curb ramps that make getting from one street to another safe for wheelchair users. In addition, a number of pedestrian signals are not up to date, lacking the “chirping” and voice signals that pedestrians might find at more updated intersections in the city.

The project will also involve replacing storm water catch basins in the bike lanes, which often interfere with cyclists riding safely. The new basins will be more flush with the existing roadway, allowing cyclists to roll over them instead of moving to avoid them.

Link was convicted in 2003 and sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. Link has continued to appeal those convictions, and in 2009 the Oregon Supreme Court ruled to drop three of Link’s murder convictions. Link was accused of being the “mastermind” behind the crime, but was reported to be standing outside when the shot was fired.

In 2014, his case was returned to the Deschutes County Circuit Court by the Oregon Court of Appeals. In a new written order, issued August 5, the court said Link would be eligible “to be considered for parole” after he’s served 30 years in prison. That’s roughly 15 years from now. SW

GANJA GROWS UP

By Nicole Vulcan

utty notes of chestnut and coffee. Flowery violet and honey.

If you thought that was in reference to a wine someone’s drinking, you’d be wrong…kind of. These days, descriptions like that are almost as likely to be thrown around while shopping for marijuana as they would be when buying a fine wine.

October 1, 2016 marks the one-year anniversary of recreational marijuana sales at dispensaries in the state of Oregon. Pot became officially legal for people over 21 to possess and grow as of July 1, 2015—but it wasn’t until October 1 that dispensaries could open their doors to the non-medical user.

If you walked into a dispensary on that date a year ago, chances are you heard people making vague requests for “something that will help me sleep,” or “something tasty.”

One year later, educated consumers are walking into dispensaries with requests that rival those of the most cultured wine connoisseur. (Insert the nutty, spicy, berry, flowery language here…)

In one year, recreational cannabis has become a booming industry, adding big bucks to the economy. Since January, Oregon has sold roughly $102 million in recreational cannabis—which will add an estimated $43 million in tax revenue to Oregon state coffers.

Legalization of pot for the recreational user has fueled a new generation of legitimate business owners who have their sights set on educating and elevating the consumer experience—to the point that people don’t think just about high levels of THC, but also about flavor profiles and quality. In other words, local businesses are striving to bring the “craft” element to pot, as Oregonians have long done with wine, beer, and food.

The Craft Cannabis Industry: It’s an Oregon Thing “When it first unfolded, a lot of dispensaries were advertising their test results and THC percentages,” says Aviv Hadar, co-founder of Oregrown in Bend. “So what was happening was it was turning into malt liquor, right out of the gate. It was ‘what’s the highest percentage I can get for the cheapest price’—and nobody shops for wine like that.”

Instead of focusing on that “malt liquor” element, Hadar and his colleagues set out to cater their selection based on the quality of the growing process and the terpene profiles that give cannabis flowers—or in other words, the buds—their distinct flavors and scents.

Along with the growth of recreational pot sales in Oregon, Washington and Colorado (and now Alaska) came the rise of cannabis-focused sites such as Leafly, which offers extensive information on its website about consuming, growing and harvesting pot. Leafly describes terpenes on its website: “Secreted in the same glands that produce cannabinoids like THC and CBD, terpenes are the pungent oils that color cannabis varieties with distinctive flavors like citrus, berry, mint,

Photos by Douglas Bowser, Cascade Center of Photography

and pine.” The site goes on to explain how terpenes were developed to “repel predators and lure pollinators”— not to mention turning human consumers onto a certain strain over another. That distinction is one that Hadar and his colleagues strive to educate consumers about.

“You can have one strain that’s a lower THC percentage, but the terpene profile will get you more stoned or more euphoric than something with a higher THC percent,” says Hadar. “So the THC percent is just kind of an arbitrary number. It shows potency. But flavor profile and terpene profile is what directly charges your endocannabinoid system.”

In terms of consumer education and proliferation of the industry, Oregrown’s founders have stood at the forefront of much of the movement. Hadar was the

first person in Oregon history to testify in front of the Oregon Liquor Control Commission (OLCC) on Measure 91, which legalized recreational pot. The company is also a sponsor of the Bend Chamber of Commerce’s Young Professionals program, and two of its founders sat on the OLCC’s rules advisory committee.

Learning from the Wine Industry With the talk about flavor profiles and craft growing and production processes, it’s easy to draw the line between what’s happening in the weed industry and the growth of the wine industry in the Northwest decades ago. Cannabis companies clearly take cues from wine in terms of production, distribution and the proliferation …continued on page 11

of their industry.

So what can we learn from wine? “Look at what they’re allowed to do,” Hadar reflects. “They’re allowed to grow grapes, process them into alcohol, and ship hundreds of barrels all over the world and to each other. And in terms of an industry, it’s something to aspire to be.”

“The way the wine industry has lobbied to allow their limits and barrel production, it’s just phenomenal,” says Hadar. “It’s something to look forward to in terms of breaking down state lines and being able to distribute across different states.”

As for the connection to other craft industries, Abigail Craig, manager of the High Grade Organics dispensary in Bend, concurs.

“It’s really similar to beer in Oregon and wine in Washington. It’s really going to be a connoisseur’s market and that it is evolving,” says Craig.

“In those different terpenes and profiles it’s getting very advanced the more that it’s above ground—and we’re excited about that—to continue to watch it grow.” When consumers are looking for the “gold standard” of cannabis, Craig recommends looking for the Clean Green Certified label, indicating the grower—and the seller—value clean, organic products. Without federal regulation, third-party certifications are the only vetting programs available, says Craig.

“Drunk” on Pot Still, it’s not just people’s palates that have seen change over the past year. At Bend’s St. Charles Medical Center, the number of cannabis-related visits to the emergency room sat at less than 200 per month from July 2014 through October 2015. In December ‘15, that number went up to 438. In August it was 674. Seventeen of those August visits were children.

St. Charles ER physician Dr. David Rosenberg attributes many of those visits to people ingesting too much edible marijuana—which became available for recreational users to purchase as of June 2, 2016. When it comes to ingesting edibles, the numbers indicate that plenty of people haven’t entirely transitioned into being educated consumers.

“When you’re consuming marijuana orally the absorption to psychoactive effects can be quite a long time,” Rosenberg says. “It can be 30 minutes 45 minutes or more, and if people don’t have a response in a relatively soon timeframe they may, they often do take more and more and more and they end up consuming quite a bit until finally that drug does start to have its effect.”

Dr. Rosenberg admits that the risks with marijuana use are far less than alcohol and some other drugs—but that’s not to say a trip to the ER isn’t warranted for some.

“People can get so confused or anxious that friends and family have no choice but to bring them to the ER,”

says Rosenberg. When it comes to handling edibles, Rosenberg advises people to take it slow and know your dosages.

Aaron Morris, CEO of cannabis edibles company Wyld, agrees. “Never take more of one of anything,” Morris advises. “Right now, one of anything from X,Y,Z supplier could be very different.” Morris also points out that with the upcoming changes to the rules around edibles, each and every single dose you buy in an Oregon dispensary will contain a relatively-low 5mg dose.

Still, Morris urges caution—especially for tourists and pot newbies.

“If you’ve never consumed cannabis and you show up in Oregon and you’re like ‘woo!’—you should probably start with one, knowing what it is. 5mg shouldn’t hospitalize you,” Morris says. To help educate consumers, Morris says his company relies on clearly identified packaging, product consistency and quality testing and working with dispensaries to portray the right message.

Meanwhile, Dr. Rosenberg says there’s a growing body of information about cannabinoid hyperemesis syndrome—a problem seen among frequent users that includes ongoing abdominal pain and episodes of frequent vomiting. While not much is known about the syndrome, doctors are watching out for it.

“The numbers show big uptick in the number of marijuana-related emergencies and at least some of them—a portion of the cases—are related to this syndrome,” Rosenberg says.

By December 31, businesses in all points of the supply chain must have an OLCC license to operate. The OLCC is processing applications on a first-come, first-served basis, working on “producers and laboratories first,” according to the OLCC website.

For Hadar and his colleagues, stringent regulations are just one more testament to the commitment to craft that Oregon is known for.

“By every standard of measurement, people use Oregon cannabis products as the top end,” says Hadar. “If it stands up to Oregon products, it’s a good type thing.” SW

To that end, Oregrown’s founders have lobbied numerous times in Washington, D.C., where they say they’ve had a mixed reception.

In Oregon and a growing number of states (Arizona, California, Missouri and Maine are set to vote on legalizing recreational pot this November), enthusiasts and entrepreneurs aren’t backing down on the effort to change federal policy.

Next up in the evolution of the industry in Oregon: A change in the governing body from the Oregon Health Authority to the OLCC. It might be a small detail to the average consumer, but to growers, labs and retailers, it’s a significant change. By October 1, all pot-related packaging labeling has to be OLCC-approved, and all products must be tested for pesticides, potency and other elements. Since pot shops can’t sell pot that’s not tested, at the front of the line for approval are the marijuana testing labs, which have to jump through two hoops: the Oregon Environmental Laboratory Accreditation, as well as an OLCC approval—a process that can take months. As of the date of this publication, two labs in Deschutes County had earned accreditation, including Juniper Analytics and EVIO Labs.

Creating Something From Nothing The Helio Sequence show caps off a weekend of painting and community engagement in the arts

t’s been more than a year since the release of The Helio Sequence’s last record, and once again the buoyant pop duo are finding inspiration in the endless possibilities of a blank canvas.

environment isn’t always the ideal place to incite fresh creativity.

With the last record, the shimmering Portland-based rockers found themselves embracing a new creative process.

Rather than meticulously laboring over every little detail, Brandon Summers and Benjamin Weikel started living in the moment. The pair just played what came to them, followed where the music’s momentum took them, and emerged with their sixth full-length record.

“I know it sounds weird to say but I’ve been really excited about recording demos on my phone this time around,” Summers says. “There’s something about the portability, limitation and casualness of recording to the phone that really opens up my creativity. I don’t have the pressure of making a ‘final copy,’” and “the low quality makes me see songs differently—more as a work in progress, with the understanding that they will be changed over time. In this way, the feeling of open possibilities is inspiring.”

Summers and Weikel have invested more than 15 years into their musical partnership and career. Time equals experience, plus their successes have allowed them to amass a collection of toys and tools— the kind of instruments, gear and space that enables them to create professional records on their own. Yet a professional

This organic, free-flowing mentality is liberating and makes The Helio Sequence the perfect act to close Base Camp Studio​’s fourth annual Painting Marathon, “a two-day event celebrating community art in Bend,” according to founder Darlene Becker. Taking place at Crow’s Feet Commons starting on

Friday, October 7, the art-centric event aims to bring “people together through the shared process of art making,” Becker explains. “People watching the art being created live have expressed feeling part of it, and the artists report feeling inspired by the energy of the spectators, asking questions and getting involved, in their own way, in the process.”

On night one, October 7, five local artists will kick off the marathon at 3pm by painting on five large canvases over a six-hour period. A kids event beginning at 4pm allows hundreds of youth to participate in a free art activity. “This year, we will also have collaborative art stations to really get people actively engaged in the art making,” Becker says.

Night two, on Saturday, October 8 will celebrate the transformation of blank canvas to works of art with a performance from The Helio Sequence, which is also a fundraiser for the nonprofit’s

expanding art and art therapy programs, as well as its goal of creating a physical community art space.

While The Helio Sequence will continue to paint broad strokes across their evolving sonic canvas as they work on their next record, so too can the community in Bend participate in creating and supporting local community and art. SW

ART WATCH

Sharing the Language of Art

The show tells the gleefully profane tale of Julian, Ricky, Bubbles, Lucy, Sarah, J-Roc, Tyrone, Ray, Cory, Trevor and the many other residents of Sunnyvale Trailer Park. Most episodes involve Ricky, Julian and Bubbles trying to either make money doing something stupid and illegal, or trying to avoid being kicked out of the park by its supervisor Jim Lahey and his round and shirtless accomplice Randy.

Dunsworth and Pat Roach (who plays Randy) are touring the country for the No Pants Unpissed U.S. Tour—basically a variety show where Dunsworth and Roach do a stand-up show as Randy and Mr. Lahey. I had a chance to talk to Dunsworth over the phone and it was just as surreal as I could have hoped. They were driving from Erie, PA to Buffalo, NY and our reception was spotty at best. Apparently, Roach was driving and Dunsworth was the navigator, so I kept hearing “Randy” interject without having any clue what he was saying.

Touring as the characters has been an absolute blast for Dunsworth. “We’re having a ball and we’re so happy people come to our show and laugh and have a good time,” says Dunsworth. “I’m 70 years old. I wouldn’t mind playing him

Local artist works to sustain the arts in Bend

With the sudden closure of Arts Central and art spaces like Armature at The Old Ironworks Arts District, many are concerned about the local community’s ability to sustain the arts in Bend. One local artist is doing her best to address the issue by teaching the language of art to as many people as she can reach.

Teafly Peterson is an artist and educator who offers small group art classes for kids in her studio, teaches art to students through school residencies, and runs a blog called Coffee + Art + Friends. Her hope is to create an understanding of the value of art in the community so that more people engage with and help sustain it.

Randy can be VP.” (But the characters are Canadians, mind you…)

It’s easy to get caught up on how great the characters of Bubbles, Julian and Ricky are, but John Dunsworth’s performance as the drunken and insane Mr. Lahey is the secret weapon of the show.

He manages to find so many different notes of pathos and sadness to the character, all while remaining consistently hilarious throughout.

Dunsworth might disagree about the depth of Lahey, though. “Some people import motivations to the guy that I don’t know are there,” he says. “I mean I

I taught at university, and I still teach every once and a while. I’m a teacher for people who want to improve their technique. I consider myself a good drama teacher because I don’t hold back.

I tell it like it is.”

Dunsworth’s casting as Lahey didn’t give him much time to prepare—especially since he found himself without much in common with his character. “In Trailer Park Boys I play a drunk, but I don’t drink,” he says. “There was very little preparation for the role. I just followed the directions of Mike Clattenburg who

started the whole thing. He’d say ‘John, give me an eight on the drunk, two on the pathos and two on the anger,’ and I’d do it. Jim Lahey is not really a deep character. I mean, I’m married for over 20 years and I’ve got four daughters. Treena on Trailer Park is one of my daughters.

I don’t have many similarities to Lahey at all. I’m heterosexual and a teetotaler, mostly. I like drugs and marijuana more than I like drinking alcohol.”

His fearlessness in portraying Lahey is staggering and that doesn’t even take into account how hysterically pathetic Roach portrays Randy. These two characters combined make for an extremely dysfunctional duo, which should make for a hilarious live show.

Whether there is much depth in Lahey or not, one thing is certain: he is the liquor. SW

“We live in this community where art is everywhere—every roundabout on the drive to work and the way home— and yet people have no comprehension of what it takes to have it there,” says Peterson. “We need people to engage or it is going to go away slowly like Arts Central.”

Peterson believes the lack of art education in schools is part of a systematic problem that leads kids who don’t know how to talk about art to become adults who avoid it. “Arts Central really worked hard at trying to build that bridge of connecting artists with schools,” says Peterson, who did a residency at Miller Elementary that parents stepped up and paid for. “Now,” Peterson says, “How do we get them to engage deeper into the community outside of that?”

Using her blog to publish interviews she conducts with local artists, Peterson hopes to help people understand the language of art. “Just like we have language about nature or about rock climbing, when people have words for something…intimidation falls away and they feel like it’s theirs as well.” SW Studio Teafly Classes 1234 NE First St., Bend teafly.wordpress.com

here is no way that “Trailer Park Boys” should have lasted this long.

After 10 seasons (with an 11th due in the next few months), a dozen specials and three movies, the adventures of these characters should feel excruciatingly dull by this point. But somehow the characters have not only remained fresh, but the storylines keep escalating to a grander scale.

Filling the Art Education Gap Bend Park and Recreation District reopens Art Station

By Annette Benedetti

O

n August 19, Arts Central closed its doors—leaving a giant gap in Central Oregon’s arts education offerings and services. The Art Station was an Arts Central program—one of many Arts Central programs the community had come to depend on for afterschool and summer options for their children.

Art Station’s sudden closure came as a shock to many and left some families scrambling to find alternative classes for their children before the school year began. Sue Boettner, Recreation Services Manager for Bend Park and Recreation District (BPRD) says, “We tried to help those parents find other classes because, you know…parents have to work.”

BPRD has been one of the Art Station’s community partners since 2001. On September 20 its board decided to take over the Art Station lease with the intention of offering similar classes starting

in November. While BPRD has always offered an array of introductory art classes through their enrichment department, Boettner acknowledges that Art Station programs provided a higher level of instruction. She says BPRD intends on maintaining that level of instruction and has already begun taking steps to ensure that happens.

“Our goal is to keep that quality and that higher level instruction that [the Art Station] was so good at by hiring their old instructors and maybe some new instructors with experience,” says Boettner. Job listings were posted on Friday, Sept. 23 and interviews will be scheduled for the first week of October if all goes as planned.

The decision to take over and reopen the Art Station was an easy one. As a longtime community partner, BPRD had been helping Arts Central promote and

run its classes since its inception. “When we heard they were closing their doors, we knew it would leave a huge void in the community,” says Boettner. “We believe in what their mission was and it aligns with ours.”

Operating expenses that had caused Art Central to struggle financially are now taken care of in house at BPRD. Boettner says: “Registration, administration, and the infrastructure it took to put their guides out cost them quite a bit of money.

We do all of that on such a large scale that it isn’t a huge extra expense for us.”

With plans to reopen Art Station on Nov. 1, BPRD hopes to provide threeweek sessions for a variety of ages in November and December and then have a full complement of programs ready for winter and spring. They’ll offer many of the same fine arts classes as well as some new ones including jewelry, textile, and

glass.

BPRD is also looking to expand the class offerings into new areas. “We’re trying to reach out to the community and find out what they weren’t getting…and (we) are looking at art therapy, home school, and autism classes,” says Boettner. She encourages anyone with feedback about the past program or what they would like to see in the future to contact BPRD directly. “We can’t improve unless we hear what the community wants.” SW

Drake’s owner brings a neighborhood feel to the new Washington restaurant 29

No, that’s not a coffee truck

Owner Ted Swigert talks about coming at Washington from a different place than Drake.

Local Grindz offers plates your Hawaiian ohana will love

First off, finding the balance of a stable yet exciting menu was important. “We wanted to take ideas of what we did with Drake and do it in a neighborhood,” says Swigert. “When you’re in a neighborhood, the same people are coming in two or three times a week and they don’t want to guess what the menu’s going to look like. Even if it’s a revolving door of fun things, it’s got to have some stability to it.”

Swigert goes on to say “a lot of what we did at Washington is bouncing off of what we’ve done downtown at Drake,” he reflects. “When we opened Drake, three and a half years ago, it was to put a big city, urban feel into the space. With that, our culinary team was going to roll out a menu that you would find in a large city. Our menus would change certainly seasonally if not more often... more at the whims of the chef. Certainly sourcing everything locally and regionally if we could. We kept people on their toes. It was a menu that changed a lot and we gained a lot of traction and found a big niche.”

When I dined at Washington, they had just rolled out the brunch menu a few days earlier. I figured I should day drink like a true professional and tried the House Bloody Mary, which modulated between spicy and boozy perfectly.

There was an effortless simplicity to the drink that made me excited to try as much on the menu as I could.

The crispy mozzarella with cherry tomatoes and caper relish was a little too good. The crust was nicely browned, and the melted cheese combined with the lightly-tart tomatoes and the complex caper relish made for an app which we could have easily ordered two or three more portions of. The highlight of the entire meal, however, was the Cast Iron Roasted Broccoli. The roasted onion puree never overwhelmed the dish and the black garlic aioli sealed everything perfectly together.

Visit any Hawaiian island and you’re sure to walk away knowing one thing: Hawaiians love them some carbs. Most meals are piled high with macaroni salad (just “mac salad” to an islander), rice and often potato salad, along with the meat of choice. It’s a carb-y phenomenon that non-islanders might puzzle about…but if you’re a true Hawaiian, it just seems right.

If you’ve been looking for “grinds” like your Hawaiian ohana (the Hawaiian word for “family”) used to make, Local Grindz is it. The snazzy new food truck, decked out in bright red and green with surfboards on the side, is located in the parking lot of the Habitat for Humanity ReStore at 224 NE Thurston Avenue in Bend.

Carrying that casual vibe over from Drake was important to Swigert. “If we put white table cloths on the tables at Drake it would be fine dining, but that’s not what we do,” says Swigert. “We’re a casual, fun, high energy place to go eat.

The service is outstanding, the food is outstanding...everything we do there is to try and run it at a higher level.”

After trying the Zombie fries (house cut french fries smothered in melted cheese and brisket), the goat cheese, avocado, cherry tomato and fresh crab omelet and the double cheeseburger (with a strong In-N-Out vibe to it), we were too full to live. Everything we tried on the menu was approached in an unpredictable way, but not a pretentious one.

“We decided to go with something that’s very approachable,” says Swigert. “We would have the components change seasonally and however the chef felt

like the direction should go. We can try for fun things that you would find in bigger cities. People like to go with the comfortable recognizable things that are on the menu.”

They chose not to go with a soft open at Washington, instead coming out of the gate swinging. Swigert says: “People have been watching that building going up for a year and a half. There’s no quiet anything. As soon as we turned the lights on we were doing 400 people a day right away.” Don’t expect it to slow down any time soon. SW

Classic Hawaiian dishes include Kalua Pig—the shredded pork dish traditionally buried in the ground and cooked for days. Here, it’s oven-cooked for seven hours to let the flavors and juices mingle and make a salty, crave-worthy main dish served on a bed of thin-sliced cabbage.

Also worth checking out are the teriyaki plates, served up with a homemade teriyaki sauce the cart’s owners, Helene and Brian Yamamoto, have been perfecting for about 50 years. It doesn’t get any more authentic than that.

The Yamamotos also make their own homemade Korean BBQ marinade for their Kalbi BBQ, served with either top sirloin or chicken. And to round out the Hawaiian tradition of mingling Asian cultures, the cart also offers Pork Tonkatsu—a pork cutlet that’s soaked in egg and breaded with Japanese panko flour before deep-frying.

Now here’s the part that’s most Hawaiian: All the above-named dishes are served not just with a ball of rice, but also with macaroni AND potato salad, mixed together. If you’re Hawaiian or you’re entertaining Hawaiian guests, they’re going to toss up a big shaka for this one. SW

Port Barrel-Aged Beer and Black Butte Whiskey!? OK!

inter, to borrow a heavily-used catchphrase, is coming, and breweries across Bend are busily preparing their seasonal offerings for what will hopefully be a season heavy on the snow and light on the black ice. In the case of a couple old standbys though, the preparations have been taking place three or four years in advance.

As evidence of this, look no further than Paxton Project. Released by 10 Barrel last week, the latest in the brewery’s “Fancy Beer Series” (a title that’s nothing if not accurate) is a collaboration between Bend-based brewer Tonya Cornett and Sonoma, California-based chef and beer writer Sean Paxton of homebrewchef.com.

the making.

Team-ups between breweries and distilleries aren’t anything new; over in Ireland, Jameson has been doing them for a few years now, sharing barrels with places like Fat Head’s and Great Divide Brewing in Denver. Black Butte Whiskey is Bendian through and through; however, a malt whiskey that was double-distilled using the wash from Black Butte Porter. It’s great neat or on the rocks, demonstrating ample roast and honey character—something to sip on by the fire after dark. It’s $13 for a 1.5oz pour at the brewery or $79 for a 100ml bottle at local liquor stores, just in case you’re holiday shopping early. SW

Paxton Project is $15 a bottle and available at the Bend pub—but why stop at 16.6 percent when one can move on to 47 percent or so? That’s what’s on offer from Black Butte Whiskey, a collaboration between Deschutes Brewery and Bendistillery that’s also three years in

10 Barrel Brewing

Simply put, it’s a Belgian-style imperial quad that’s been aged in port wine barrels since November 2012—back in 10 Barrel’s “indie” days, so to speak. A couple of different yeasts were used in the fermentation, and the barrels also have flavors of orange, chocolate, and cinnamon in the mix. And alcohol too, considering this sucker clocks in at 16.6 percent ABV—more than most wines.

“The layers of flavors we built into the base beer, as well as the alcohol and barrel contributions, have mellowed out over the past four years, creating a cohesive depth of flavor,” Cornett says.

"The Magnificent Seven" is ridin’ dirty

By Jared Rasic 33 VOLUME 20 ISSUE 39 / September 29, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

"The Magnificent Seven" will save your town and look smashing doing it.

“T

he Magnificent Seven” is exactly what you get from the trailers, but with a little more and a little less.

The main thing that makes the whole creaky enterprise work is getting a few likable actors together and hooting and hollering as they shoot their way around a hundred mustache-twirling villains.

You’ve seen this movie before. Hell, you’ve seen it twice before under the

depressing. Let’s be honest, though. The film doesn’t really hold a candle to what started this whole storyline: 1954’s “Seven Samurai.”

The film doesn’t try to do much of anything different with the plot. Peter Sarsgaard is a wickedly evil robber baron who has besieged a mining town called Rose Creek. The land could possibly have gold, and he’s taking it and So here we have a remake of a remake of only offering $100 or death to the a classic, which means it’s a classic twice poor townsfolk. removed?

Byung-hun, Manuel Garcia-Rulfo and Martin Sensmeier are our new Magnificent Seven. The characters aren’t really the same as the original, although Hawke’s character is a mash-up of Brynner, Vaughn and Brad Dexter’s role and Pratt definitely has a McQueen-by-wayof-Han-Solo vibe going.

Still, it’s Vincent D’Onofrio who takes the whole movie with both hands. He plays Jack Horne, a lonely tracker with a high-pitched voice and skill with a tomahawk. This movie deserves to exist just on the merits of his weird, wonderfully modulated performance. Hawke also has a strong showing, but he’s always pretty great.

The gunfights are nail biting (even as the score tries to demolish the tension) and the script has a few nice moments.

Another point of interest here is Nic Pizzolatto (“True Detective”) having a writing credit. By seeing his name on the credits, it’s easy to expect him to try some sort of deconstruction of the Western genre, but he goes old school

here. This is an old-fashioned Western for both good and bad.

Honestly, there are a lot of little nitpicks to find throughout the film, but people are going to go to this to have fun—and that is exactly what it delivers. You care about your Seven (some more Magnificent than others) and that’s really what drives every second of the movie. There is no nuance to how evil the bad guys are, so it’s genuinely fun to watch the good guys shoot them down.

The original looked at the violence as a waste and the remaining heroes knew that they hadn’t done anything truly “good.” The bad guys were starving and the townsfolk were dicks and that ambiguity left you with something to take home. The remake is empty calories, but it still tastes pretty good going down. SW "The Magnificent Seven" Dir. Antoine Fuqua Grade: B Now playing at Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

John Sayles talks filmmaking

By Jared Rasic

WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / September 29, 2016 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

34 I am not adding a single ounce of hyperbole when I say that John Sayles is one of the finest filmmakers in history. He, along with life partner Maggie Renzi, a handful of my all-time favorite movies, and each one of them feels like a completely separate entity. He bounces between genres with ease, taking the notion of “storyteller” and infusing it into his scripts, and his directorial style.

Each of his films feel like chapters of a much larger story that we’re only getting pieces of. The epic “Lone Star,” the ahead-of-its-time film “The Brother From Another Planet,” the heart-rending “Matewan,” the underrated “Limbo,” the beautiful fable “The Secret of Roan Inish,” and the fascinating “Eight Men Out” are all film classics. His first film, “Return of the Secaucus 7” and the deeply angry and powerful “City of Hope” are both screening at BendFilm with the filmmaker in attendance.

Sayles was educated at the prestigious Williams College in Massachusetts, but that isn’t where his love of filmmaking was born. “At the time I was there, Williams didn’t have a theater program, much less a film program,” says Sayles.

“Mostly, I got to see a lot of movies.

There was a professor in the English department who had a film appreciation class where we watched a lot of good movies.”

Sayles elaborates: “I started as a fiction writer and screenwriter, but then I became interested in storytelling in time, the way it is in movies. There’s

you need would be great. I’ve got three or four of them written but the funding is very difficult.”

John Sayles is one of the finest filmmakers of his generation.

a rhythm to it that compliments the rhythm of fiction.”

Sayles’ last few movies have been released through indie production labels, making his audience smaller. He says he’s moved between indie and studio films so much that he doesn’t have a preference which type of film he is making. “I’d like to stay making films period,” says Sayles. “It’s getting really, really hard. I don’t know if I’ll get to direct another thing. The last couple movies were self-financed and self-distributed. That world is just shrinking if you want to work with professional actors and a professional crew.”

His most recent film, “Go For Sisters,” cost about a million dollars. “We shot it in 18 days and there were 61 locations,” explains Sayles. “That’s not easy to pull off every time. Then we couldn’t find a distributor for it. It doesn’t matter whether it’s a studio movie or an independent movie, it’s hard to get a directing job. So many of the actors I know are in a situation where they said yes to a project and then it falls apart. The money falls through or the star gets bitchy and then they cancel the movie. With the few studio movies I’ve done, I pretty much had control over the movie and a little bit more money to work with. But making an independent movie with all the money

BENDFILM: "VOYAGERS WITHOUT TRACE"

“V

oyagers Without Trace” is a gorgeous and life affirming documentary that is, on its surface, about two kayaking adventures several decades apart. Filmmaker Ian McCluskey came across a historic marker in Southwest Wyoming. It told the story of Genevieve and Bernard de Colmont and their friend, Antoine de Seynes, who, in 1938, came from France to be the first people to take kayaks down the Green and Colorado rivers. The French Trio used groundbreaking color film to document their journey.

As McCluskey started making his film about the Trio, he realized that in order to really understand them, he would have to go through the same journey they did. The main problem: he was not remotely a kayaker. In fact,

he had a deep distrust of the water.

“I wasn’t a filmmaker when I first saw the sign and I didn’t know they made a film.

It was only years later when I had the tools of a documentary filmmaker at my fingertips that I could go back and pick up the story again. When I learned they had made a film, that’s when I knew this could be a story worth pursuing,” McCluskey says.

To start learning about kayaking, he walked into a kayak

When I said to him, I couldn’t believe a filmmaker of his talent could have so much trouble financing a movie, he replied: “Robert Altman had this point in his career.

The more records you’ve had without going platinum, it actually gets harder to raise money. If your last five movies haven’t made a whole lot of money, you’re probably less likely to get an investor than somebody who’s never made a movie at all.”

Someone like Sayles shouldn’t have this much trouble finding the funding for a movie. He is a genius, and cinema without his unique voice would be much worse in the long run. This is why we can’t have nice things.

shop and met adventure athlete Paul Kuthe and his fiancee Kate, who trained McCluskey for a summer before they embarked on their trip. Watching Ian, Paul and Kate kayak down the Green and Colorado rivers is beautifully intercut with the journey of the French trio.

The history they discover about the Trio is too fascinating and lovely to spoil here.

But did the kayaking trip help cure McCluskey of his distrust of water?

“I definitely had a

different connection to water,” says the filmmaker. “I don’t think the healthy respect of the severity of water, dissipated. I think I still distrust water but what I did walk away with was a greater confidence. Stretching out of one’s comfort zone is really empowering, if only for the simple lesson that comfort zones are elastic and by stretching them it makes the soul stronger for everything else one has to be.”

BRIDGET JONES’S BABY: It’s been several years since we’ve checked in with Ms. Jones and her delightfully madcap life. Now she’s pregnant and the father is either the painfully handsome and classy Colin Firth or the handsome and (Mc)Dreamy Patrick Dempsey.

These are good problems to have, but it’s Renee Zellweger’s winning charm in the role that sells just about every goofy moment of the series. Pretty dang fun for the third movie in a series and a very welcome addition to a fairly bad month of movies so far. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

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. 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 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

SNOWDEN: Instead of focusing on the spy games and real-like intensity of Edward Snowden’s choices that led him to exile in Russia, this biopic mostly spends time with Snowden and his domestic issues with his girlfriend. As fascinating as his life’s story is, the choice of focus seems to be a mistake, as getting to know the man more doesn’t create as compelling a yarn as it could have.

“Citizenfour” is still the definitive look at the life and choices of Edward Snowden. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

STORKS: It's hard to tell whether this new

223 NW Hill St., Bend

animated film exists so parents have an easier way to describe the birds and the bees to their children or whether it helps with avoidance altogether. The film follows the winged employees of Cornerstore, a company that used to deliver babies and now is more of a postal service. When a baby accidentally gets dropped off with the storks, a few birds and a human girl must bring the child to its proper home. Directed by Nicholas Stoller, the filmmaker behind the newest Muppet Movie and “Neighbors,” there's a good chance this animated flick is funnier than the trailers suggest. 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. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

THE INNOCENTS: In the war-torn Poland of 1945, a French Red Cross doctor is sent to assist survivors of the prison camps. During a visit to a nearby convent, she finds many of the nuns in an advanced state of pregnancy from the Russian soldiers who sexually abused them. This is a very difficult movie to watch but it has moments of hope, beauty and triumph that counteract the uncomfortably brutal subject matter. Tin Pan Theater THE MAGNIFICENT SEVEN: As sick as we are of remakes, reboots and re-imaginings, this new iteration of “The Magnificent Seven” (which is itself a retelling of “Seven Samurai”) actually looks pretty fun. Even if the plot is recycled, teaming Denzel Washington up with Chris Pratt, Ethan Hawke, Vincent D'Onofrio and Lee Byung-hun to fight a weaselly Peter Sarsgaard can only lead to excitement. With a script co-written by “True Detective's” Nic Pizzolatto, consider us cautiously optimistic.

All the Pretty Therapists GO HERE Bend’s smartest horses ride to your emotional rescue

By Hayley Jo Murphy

By Howard Leff 37

Not surprising.

He grazes most of the day, this majestic creature, and yet still finds the time to provide clients with much-needed emotional support. Did I mention he’s stunningly handsome? Long legs, two giant brown eyes, a flowing mane and the innate ability to figure out exactly what’s going on in your head…sort of like Tony Robbins with a tail and a penchant for hay.

Bend Rugby Men’s Calendar Release Party

And no matter what else happens, you get to do your therapy work outside! Or at least in a barn.

My adventurous girlfriend and I first discovered EFP over the summer. Well, she discovered it. I spent most of that time pretending I wasn’t hearing someone suggesting horses could improve our relationship. “A horse therapist?”

I said. “Seriously? As someone who knows nothing even remotely related to this subject, I can definitively tell you it sounds ridiculous.”

Now you have a tiny peek into why we desperately need couples therapy. Well, at least I do.

So we made an appointment. That night I had vivid dreams of a very distinguished horse slumped in a chair wearing a tweed blazer, khakis and brown loafers.

A matching dress shirt. Open collar. I mean, could even the most fashionable horse pull off a tie?

Hang on. Was I about to spill my innermost personal secrets to BoJack Horseman? So far, my anxiety was on the upswing.

When the day arrived, we drove out to Healing Reins Therapeutic Riding Center, a charming 20-acre equestrian facility in southeast Bend. Right in the middle of this farmland sits a large barn with over a dozen horse stalls, but most of the horses roam freely in the adjacent paddocks. As we got out of the car, a couple of very friendly dogs appeared, seemingly waiting to greet us, while a storybook variety of ponies, chickens, goats and other animals milled about in nearby pens.

Welcome to my psychotherapy fairy tale.

Equine Facilitated Psychotherapy (EFP) has come to Bend and it’s not just for couples. Turns out certain horses, when properly trained, possess therapeutic qualities that can help virtually anyone feel better. EFP is used for a long list of psychological ailments including depression, anxiety and trauma.

Equine therapy can really add some horsepower to your quest to get along better with your partner.

Oh yes, there were some actual people too. The horse teams up with real humans. Two, actually. Our sessions include a professional licensed therapist as well as a highly-skilled horse trainer.

(There’s no riding involved. She’s there to help things run smoothly and add additional expertise to the process.)

well we can work together as a team.

Another time, my girlfriend went into the paddock and hung out with the horse alone, while the therapist asked me to simply observe their behavior.

For the record, the two of them shared a few casual laughs and, from what I could overhear, made dinner plans.

Here’s how the sessions work: The therapist, minus the horse and trainer, meets with us first. Often, as opposed to old school therapy, this conversation takes place under a tree. We spend about 15-20 minutes discussing what happened over the past week and getting a sense of the issues we need to work on. That can potentially generate questions beginning with the phrase, “How did that make you feel when he…?”

These horses serve as living “biofeedback machines”—providing valuable insight into the nature of our relationships. Incredibly, they can pick up on things only a horse would know.

The standard answer? “A little annoyed.”

Then it’s time for the main event. The three of us wander over to the paddock where our horse (sometimes two!) and the trainer await. EFP is based on the theory that horses are intuitive and will react to human behavioral patterns that might otherwise go unnoticed. In other words, these calm, zen-like animals have the uncanny ability to actually process our feelings.

Our activities with the horses vary from week to week and each exercise has a specific purpose.

For example, one time our therapist asked me to design a sort of obstacle course for the horse — and then instruct my girlfriend on how to walk him through it. This helps illustrate how

Like the fact that I once lost $200 on the Kentucky Derby.

It’s a totally enlightening experience.

Just being in the presence of these animals is humbling. Horses live in the moment. They mirror your moods. If they sense you’re calm, they’re generally relaxed. If you’re throwing off some tension and/or lack of confidence, they might decide not follow your directions or lose interest in you altogether.

The results so far? It really works.

After about a month or two of therapy sessions, our relationship has improved dramatically!

Speaking of which, here’s some quick advice for Brad and Angelina: Sure, things appear bleak right now. But on the off chance you’re still clinging to hopes of repairing your marriage, there’s no better place to work things out than these 20 acres of quiet farmland in a tiny corner of Central Oregon.

Magical horses included. SW

Strange Job Title: Fish Watcher

By Brian Jennings 39 VOLUME 20 ISSUE 39 / September 29, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

Lee Spencer stands guard at the banks of Steamboat Creek. Photo by Brian Jennings.

L

ee Spencer has one of the most unusual job titles in Oregon—Fish Watcher. For the past 18 years Spencer has kept watch over thousands of returning summer steelhead in Steamboat Creek, a tributary of the upper Umpqua River System. Every May Spencer returns to his trailer headquarters along the banks of the Steamboat.

He has constructed a make-shift lean-to where he sits and watches steelhead returning to the waters where they were spawned—completing a life cycle that has continued for thousands, if not millions, of years.

“These are summer steelhead. They leave the ocean in May or June with 25 percent more fat in their system, and they spawn in February or March,” he explains. The fish feed very sparsely on their long journey from the Pacific Ocean during that 10-month period.

From his shelter, hundreds of steelhead can be seen pooling in the clear water below. When they left that pool four years earlier they were only about three inches long. Now they average 28 inches in length and weigh about 8 pounds.

August and September are the months when they reach this pool and sit. The pool provides them with clean, cool water as they await the cooler rains of fall and

winter before resuming their migration upriver to spawn.

summer in a hole downstream from the Big Bend Pool.

The pool where the fish are holding is historically known as the “dynamite hole”. Spencer calls it the Big Bend Pool, but he tells us of poachers in decades past who used dynamite to kills hundreds of steelhead. For years, Steamboat Creek has been off limits to fishing and mining in an effort to keep its waters healthy for these native fish. But hundreds of pooling fish are still a great temptation for many.

Spencer says there is a very good reason to protect the wild summer steelhead.

“The Steamboat basin, excluding Canton Creek, may be the ultimate home to as many as 30 percent of the wild steelhead that enter the North Umpqua.” It is one of only a handful of rivers left in Oregon that hold wild steelhead in its waters.

Spencer had volunteered to watch over the fish many years ago when groups such as the Upper Umpqua Foundation and the Steamboaters Club scheduled volunteers to guard the creek against poaching. Scheduling volunteers became a nightmare. It was too much to ask of volunteers because it required them to be on duty from early May to early December. Finally a solution was found.

A stipend was offered to cover the costs of a watchman, and Lee Spencer, an avid steelhead Umpqua river fly fisherman, was offered the job. He accepted it on a one-year trial. It’s now been 18 years of protecting thousands of wild steelhead.

“I’ve not had face-to-face time with a poacher,” he says, but he does tell of a poaching incident as recently as this

The North Umpqua is a major tributary of the Umpqua River, flowing over 100 miles through southwestern Oregon. Its rugged basalt canyons are surrounded by Douglas fir forests. The river is considered a prime international destination for fly fishermen. Presidents, governors, movie stars, and famous authors— including western writer Zane Gray— have fished its waters.

Across from the current location of the Steamboat Inn on the Umpqua, a river trail used by Gray to set up his fish camps in the 1930’s can still be hiked by today’s fisherman. As early as June, when the summer run is just beginning, fishermen of all nationalities can be seen at popular pools along the banks of the river.

Why does Lee Spencer come back year after year to watch these fish? “I would have to say I believe that it is primarily

something that feels right. It’s clearly necessary. The pool holds hundreds of steelhead, and that is simply too much for some people to handle,” he explains.

Spencer says there needs to be someone on watch—guarding against poachers— all the time, and he hopes to be able to continue as the creek’s watchman for more years to come.

Efforts are underway to further protect the Steamboat and its wild fish. Senators Wyden and Merkley have introduced legislation to designate more than 100,000 acres of the basin as the “Frank Moore Wild Steelhead Sanctuary.” The sanctuary would be named after an iconic 93-year old fisherman and conservationist who lives near the Steamboat Inn and still fishes the North Umpqua.

The legislation would require the US Forest Service to manage the Steamboat Basin to enhance the riparian habitat for the fish by potentially reducing road densities and logging in sensitive areas.

Lee Spencer is a strong proponent of this legislation, and he shared his vision for the basin for the next 100 years. “I would expect that the forests around here would have recovered from the heyday of industrial clear-cut logging, and the overall temperature of the streams and the river would be cooler for the fish.” SW

Bend Energy Challenge

Green Home Tour shows how small things can make a big difference

Something everyone can take advantage of is the free LED bulb program, available through the Bend Energy Challenge website bendenergychallenge. org/take-action/freebulbs. They will install up to 16 LED bulbs in your home for free. They have lamp style LED bulbs and the recessed can light bulbs.

They do not replace CFL bulbs, but will replace incandescent bulbs. This is a great way for everyone to save money on LED light bulbs and on energy costs.

The website says LED bulbs can save up to $160 per year on energy costs and that they last about 20 years. As of September 16, they have installed over 25,000 LED lights in 1700 homes. They also have free shower heads and faucet aerators to save on hot water usage. The LED program will continue until the end of the year.

One retrofit home on the Green Home

Tour was an 80 year old home. Many living in older homes are familiar with how drafty they can be. The home on the tour had a basement finished for additional living space. The retrofit consisted of adding insulation in the attic and floors and sealing of windows and doors.

They also installed a new high-efficiency gas furnace with the ducts placed inside the home so that any air leakage via the ducts would stay in the house.

Many of the updates are something homeowners are capable of doing themselves. Upgrades that can make a dent include making a draft snake out of tube socks or by sewing a tube and filling it with rice, turning down your thermostats at night, air drying clothes instead of using the dryer, caulking or sealing windows and doors, to name a few. The website has many different suggestions and links to the Energy Trust, which offers links to free programs for which most residents qualify. If you do the math on just the cost of the LED bulbs and figured how much could be saved annually at $160 per year per house plus the reduction of environmental waste by not having to change bulbs annually, we would be making a nice dent in our carbon footprint.

he Bend Energy Challenge Week, a program offered by the Environmental Center, was filled with many events to educate the public in energy efficiency and renewable energy.

ADVICE GODDESS Thinking Outside The Boobs I’m a man who likes to girl-watch. I do this from behind very dark glasses, yet I still elicit scowls from women. Recently, I was at a help desk, and I availed myself of the view down the receptionist’s top.

She quickly covered up with a scarf.

I’m puzzled, because there’s no way she could’ve seen my eyes. What’s going on here?

—Sunglasses

We all appreciate a nice view, but your eyes might be lingering a bit long in the wrong places if you hear stuff like “Sir… are you ready for my areolas to take your order?”

Hiding your boob recon behind pitchdark shades doesn’t help matters—but not because we have some magical ability to know when someone is staring at us.

Sure, people will swear that they can tell—even if the starer is behind them or is behind dark glasses. However, unless they grew up someplace else—like on Planet 34—they have no organ that would detect this. (Here on Earth, “eyes in the back of your head” is just a figure of speech—save for any rare genetic accidents.)

Why might we think we know when we’re being watched—even by someone we can’t see? Well, we may—subconsciously—be picking up on subtle reactions of people around us who can see the watcher. Neuroscientist Joseph LeDoux explains that our amygdala—part of our brain’s threat detection circuitry—reacts beneath conscious awareness, messaging our body to get ready to run or rumble.

That’s a creepy feeling—leading us to whirl around to see what gives—and whoa!…there’s some dude angling to cavity-search us with his eyeballs.

Being creeped out is what women are experiencing when they can’t see what your eyes are up to behind those dark glasses. Evolutionary social psychologist Frank McAndrew published the first study on the nature of “creepiness.” He explains that the feeling that something is “creepy” is a self-protective response to “ambiguity”—our being unsure of whether we’re facing a threat. We err on the side of assuming that we are—and in rushes the palace guard to barricade the cleavage with a scarf.

it worse. If you’re going to girl-watch, do it in wide-open spaces, like on the street or in a mall, so you don’t make women feel like sitting ducks in pushup bras. You might also take off those spy glasses and engage with one of these ladies. If you get something going with a woman, gazing admiringly at her will seem like a form of flattery—as opposed to a sign that your mom reset the Net Nanny to block all those “filthy” webcam sites.

The Son Also Plagiarizes I met this woman who’d dated my ex. In talking, we realized that he used the same romantic lines on both of us. Granted, these made me feel good at the time, but I feel angry and stupid for falling for them.

How do you know when a guy is sincere?

—Scammed Understandably, you want a man’s loveydovey talk to come from the heart, not from a Word doc he saved on his hard drive.

However, a guy whose heartfelt remarks turn out to be a renewable resource isn’t necessarily some sneaky recycler. Consider how personality plays into this. Personality is a pattern over time of thoughts, feelings, and desires that shape how you behave. Research by social psychologist Nathan W. Hudson suggests that you may be able to change aspects of your personality through behavioral change—like by repeatedly acting more conscientiously.

Still, Hudson—along with about 10 truckloads of other social psychologists—sees a good deal of evidence that personality is “relatively stable.”

In other words, even a sweet, sincere guy is likely to use some of the same romantic wordery with any woman he’s dating. What tells you whether he’s a good guy or he just talks a good game is time—reserving judgment on what you have together until enough time passes for you to hold up the sweet things he says to what he actually does. Wanting to see any discrepancies is really the best way to protect yourself from serial romancers—or worse. (“I bet you say that to all the girls you put in your freezer!”)

This woman you stared at was at the “help” desk, and no, that isn’t short for “Help yourself to a nice long look down my boobage.” Close-range staring at a captive audience like that is particularly creepy—as in, it’s rude. Again, the sunglasses don’t change that; they make AMY ALKON

ASTROLOGY

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Are you able to expand while you are contracting, and vice versa?

Can you shed mediocre comforts and also open your imagination to gifts that await you at the frontier? Is it possible to be skeptical toward ideas that shrink your world and people who waste your time, even as you cultivate optimism and innocence about the interesting challenges ahead of you? Here’s what I think, Scorpio: Yes, you can. At least for right now, you are more flexible and multifaceted than you might imagine.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): You Sagittarians are famous for filling your cups so full they’re in danger of spilling over. Sometimes the rest of us find this kind of cute. On other occasions, we don’t enjoy getting wine splashed on our shoes. But I suspect that in the coming weeks, the consequences of your tendency to overflow will be mostly benign—perhaps even downright beneficial. So I suggest you experiment with the pleasures of surging and gushing.

Have fun as you escape your niches and transcend your containers.

Give yourself permission to seek adventures that might be too extravagant for polite company.

Now here’s a helpful reminder from your fellow Sagittarian, poet Emily Dickinson: “You cannot fold a flood and put it in a drawer.”

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): I believe that during the coming weeks you will have an extra amount of freedom from fate. The daily grind won’t be able to grind you down. The influences that typically tend to sap your joie de vivre will leave you in peace. Are you ready to take full advantage of this special dispensation? Please say YES YES A THOUSAND TIMES YES. Be alert for opportunities to rise above the lowest common denominators. Be aggressive about rejecting the trivial questions that trap everyone in low expectations. Here are my predictions: Your willpower will consistently trump your conditioning. You won’t have to play by the old rules, but will instead have extra sovereignty to invent the future.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): According to my analysis of the astrological omens, you can expect an unlikely coincidence or two in the coming days. You should also be alert for helpfully prophetic dreams, clear telepathic messages, and pokes from tricky informers. In fact, I suspect that useful hints and clues will be swirling in extra abundance, sometimes in the form of direct communications from reliable sources, but on occasion as mysterious signals from strange angels.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You know that inner work you’ve been doing with such diligence? I’m referring to those psycho-spiritual transformations you have been attending to in the dark…the challenging but oddly gratifying negotiations you’ve been carrying on with your secret self…the steady, strong future you’ve been struggling to forge out of the chaos? Well, I foresee you making a big breakthrough in the coming weeks. The progress you’ve been earning, which up until now has been mostly invisible to others, will finally be seen and appreciated. The vows you uttered so long ago will, at last, yield at least some of the tangible results you’ve pined for.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): What’s the difference between a love warrior and a love worrier?

Love warriors work diligently to keep enhancing their empathy, compassion, and emotional

intelligence. Love worriers fret so much about not getting the love they want that they neglect to develop their intimacy skills. Love warriors are always vigilant for how their own ignorance may be sabotaging togetherness, while love worriers dwell on how their partner’s ignorance is sabotaging togetherness. Love warriors stay focused on their relationship’s highest goals, while love worriers are preoccupied with every little relationship glitch. I bring this to your attention, Aries, because the next seven weeks will be an excellent time to become less of a love worrier and more of a love warrior.

43 VOLUME 20 ISSUE 39 / September 29, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Thank you for all the entertainment you’ve provided in the past 12 months, Libra. Since shortly before your birthday in 2015, you have taken lively and gallant actions to rewrite history. You have banished a pesky demon and repaired a hole in your soul.

You’ve educated the most immature part of yourself and nurtured the most neglected part of yourself. To my joyful shock, you have even worked to transform a dysfunctional romantic habit that in previous years had subtly undermined your ability to get the kind of intimacy you seek. What’s next? Here’s my guess: an unprecedented exemption from the demands of the past.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): How will you deal with a provocative opportunity to reinvent and reinvigorate your approach to work? My guess is that if you ignore this challenge, it will devolve into an obstruction. If you embrace it, on the other hand, you will be led to unforeseen improvements in the way you earn money and structure your daily routine. Here’s the paradox: Being open to seemingly impractical considerations will ultimately turn out to be quite practical.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Is it possible that you’re on the verge of reclaiming some of the innocent wisdom you had as a child? Judging from the current astrological omens, I suspect it is. If all goes well, you will soon be gifted with a long glimpse of your true destiny -- a close replica of the vision that bloomed in you at a tender age. And this will, in turn, enable you to actually see magic unicorns and play with mischievous fairies and eat clouds that dip down close to the earth. And not only that: Having a holy vision of your original self will make you even smarter than you already are. For example, you could get insights about how to express previously inexpressible parts of yourself.

You might discover secrets about how to attract more of the love you have always felt deprived of.

CANCER (June 21July 22): I’m not asking you to tell me about the places and situations where you feel safe and fragile and timid. I want to know about where you feel safe and strong and bold. Are there sanctuaries that nurture your audacious wisdom? Are there natural sites that tease out your primal willpower and help you clarify your goals? Go to those power spots. Allow them to exalt you with their transformative blessings. Pray and sing and dance there. And maybe find a new oasis to excite and incite you, as well. Your creative savvy will bloom in November if you nurture yourself now with this magic.

Gigabit Speed Will BLOW Your Hair Back…

*

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): One of your old reliable formulas may temporarily be useless or even deceptive. An ally could be withholding an important detail from you. Your favorite psychological crutch is in disrepair, and your go-to excuse is no longer viable. And yet I think you’re going to be just fine, Leo. Plan B will probably work better than Plan A. Secondary sources and substitutes should provide you with all the leverage you need. And I bet you will finally capitalize on an advantage that you have previously neglected. For best results, be vigilant for unexpected help.

BendTel Metro’s gigabit internet speeds are not just mind-blowingly fast!

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Attention! Warning!

One of your signature fears is losing its chokehold on your imagination. If this trend continues, its power to scare you may diminish more than 70 percent by Nov. 1. And then what will you do? How can you continue to plug away at your goals if you don’t have worry and angst and dread to motivate you? I suppose you could shop around for a replacement fear—a new prod to keep you on the true and righteous path. But you might also want to consider an alternative: the possibility of drawing more of the energy you need by feeding your lust for life.

Cannabis-Infused Sesame Mushroom Bourguignon. Are cannabis dinner parties the next big thing?

N

ow that cannabis has been legal long enough to generate some reliable sales data, people in the industry are starting to ask the question: What type of cannabis products do people really want? A great deal of data, for example, suggests that older consumers are much more likely to buy edibles than younger consumers.

Many industry insiders see edibles as the “bridge” that will allow cannabis to “go mainstream,” since these are the only cannabis products that do not require smoking or vaping, something that many people—especially older folks— are reluctant to start doing. According to Headset, a company focused on analyzing data for cannabis businesses, consumers in their 40s, 50s, and 60s consume almost twice as many edibles as consumers in their 20s. In Colorado, edibles accounted for nearly half of all sales in 2015.

The hottest trend in cannabis seems to reflect this preference. Particularly adventurous gourmands are starting to pair foods with cannabis strains in the same way they have traditionally done with fine wines, beers, and cocktails.

Now, in various places all over the country, the affluent and well-connected stoner can enjoy gourmet, multi-course, cannabis-infused meals catered by professional chefs.

Strictly speaking, such dinners are often illegal even in cannabis-legal states such as Oregon. Only licensed stores are allowed to sell cannabis products, so these chefs do not exactly advertise their services and their dinners are private, invitation-only events. But, as with other aspects of

cannabis prohibition, the quasi-illegality has not stopped people from enjoying cannabis in this way.

The Herbal Chef (aka Chris Sayegh), based in Los Angeles, gets around these legal issues by catering dinners only for California medical marijuana patients. He charges between $200 and $500 per person and tailors the amount of cannabis in each dish to each diner’s preferences. And his creations epitomize the fusion of high-end food and cannabis. A typical menu: curried carrot-confit gnocchi infused with Blue Dream, seared Japanese scallops atop a bed of barley, infused with Northern Lights and Candyland, and for dessert, a grapefruit rosemary sorbet with candied lavender on green sponge cake.

Another LA-based cannabis meal pioneer who is open about his work is Jeff, the 420 Chef (he does not give his last name). He has prepared cannabis-infused meals in California, Colorado and Oregon, and plans to do so in other cannabis-legal states as well.

Jeff avoids legal problems by having his clients supply all the ingredients, including the cannabis, and by doing all the cooking for free.

Both chefs say their dinners are lively affairs where they see social barriers break down, and many people make new friends. Both obviously enjoy their work and see the potential for these dinners to open minds and, when the legal restrictions change, to become a popular activity for adults of all ages. “I’m not doing this for any other reason than to make peoples lives better,” says Jeff.
