In the Sept. 22 issue Mr. Overly expressed some very strong views for Measure 97. He listed a lengthy dissertation of his careers much of which has been at the service and benefit of others, the community and our children. I applaud him and thank him. I have not provided the community service he has but I have spent the last 30 years building businesses, providing jobs and taking risks as any business owner does large or small. I am the last to get paid after my employees, vendors and suppliers. I am proud of the fact I have signed the lower right corner of my paychecks not just the back since age 24. My businesses will not be affected by measure 97 because they don’t have gross sales of $25 million annually. I am still resolved this measure will be bad law. What most who support Measure 97 fail to grasp is simple economics. Just as your corner dry cleaner expects to achieve a profit margin on the clothes they clean, the “rich, evil, high paid lawyer and accountant” large companies have profit margins and return on investment targets to achieve for their owners and stockholders. The cost of this measure will be passed onto the working people of Oregon in increased costs of goods and services. The trickle down effect will land on the doorstep of those least able to afford it. When the cost of oil goes up doesn’t the cost of gas at your neighborhood gas station increase? When a hard freeze hits Florida in orange growing season. The cost of orange juice and oranges doesn’t drop because of low supply? This is simple Econ 101 I learned in college over 35 years ago. The “big” companies are not going to eat the 2.5 percent. That is truly absurd thinking. If you have a series of large companies selling goods and services to other large companies you have exponential cost escalation because of this tax to the consumer. All those taxes will just be passed through to the end user and consumer. To assume differently quite frankly is Pollyanna thinking. Oregon is not dead last in corporate taxes as Mr. Overly states. The states of Wash., Nev., Texas, Ohio, South Dakota don’t even have corporate income tax. There are 23 other states with lower corporate income tax rates than Oregon according to the Tax Foundation. That would hardly be dead last. There are many better options than Oregon from a taxable standpoint for companies. If the tax advantages are significant enough, yes, Virginia, businesses will move. The naïveté of the electorate at simple economics is staggering to me. This extends to many of our elected officials, Mr. Buehler excluded his letter started this lively discussion.

Oregonians rank the global poaching crisis among their top animal welfare concerns, yet often feel powerless to stop it.

DEPARTING MAYOR JIM CLINTON In response to Lisa Loo’s letter on departing mayor Jim Clinton: “Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance...” (Dr. Martin Luther King). I for one will miss the steady and intelligent leadership of Jim Clinton, and I appreciate his dedicated service to our community. To blame the Bend City Council including Mayor Clinton for the taxes levied and monies spent by Bend Park & Rec. District (BPRD) is incorrect. BPRD is a separate taxing district from the City of Bend. Bend City Council does not control the spending of BPRD funds. This was widely communicated prior to the recent gas tax vote. It’s not a secret. I know this is the Opinion section, but Facts do matter especially in the current political season where Opinions are often presented as proven Facts. Facts are Facts though and if you have any doubt about where your taxes go, then carefully examine your Deschutes County property tax statement when it arrives in the mail next month.

MEASURE 100 Oregonians love animals, and we have a long, proud history of passing laws to protect them. That’s why among all 50 states, Oregon is ranked second in the strength of its animal welfare laws. Now we have a chance to continue that tradition by passing Measure 100 to ban the commercial trade in the parts and products of our most cherished and iconic wildlife species. Federal rules and laws can only go so far in closing down illegal wildlife trafficking. Measure 100 closes an important loophole in existing law by imposing serious penalties on anyone caught trying to traffic in endangered animal parts within our state, thereby augmenting and bolstering federal enforcement efforts. With California and Washington having already passed similar laws, passing Measure 100 will mean the entire West Coast will become far less hospitable to the poachers, smugglers and profiteers in search of local markets and driving our world’s animals to extinction. The measure also includes common sense exemptions

RACISM This system is racist. Congress writes racist laws, administrative agencies devise racist policies, the criminal Judicial system provides racist interpretation of laws, corporations profit from racist privatized incarceration schemes, banking cartels reap enormous profits from racist discriminatory practices and the Police State is empowered to terrorize and murder people of color with impunity. The press blinds itself to the racist system, perpetuating Adult winning entry from Kayla Marie Van Cleve. myths of white supremacy and black inferiority. The Capitalist System was created and thrives on racism. Government officials talk about building trust, community policing, modifying gun laws and occasionally offer platitudes for victims of police violence such as Philando Castile, Alton Sterling, Michael Brown, Trayvon Martin, Freddie Gray and Fred Hampton. The police are only one part of the Racism story, however. The police do what the Racist system demands, which is to protect and serve people of privilege in a racist society. Immediate steps to wage an effective campaign against racism would be to end the Racist war on drugs, demilitarize the police, arrest killer cops, close privatized prisons, eliminate Racist laws, monitor E.J.

Knute Buehler
State Representative, District 54 The race for State Representative in House District 54—which encompasses most of the city of Bend—is an interesting battle between incumbent Republican Knute Buehler and Democrat challenger Gena Goodman-Campbell. Democrats outnumber Republicans in the district by about 7 percent, but up to one-fourth of registered voters in the district belong to no party and about 7 percent are registered independents. One might think that works in favor of Goodman-Campbell, a progressive Democrat who is concerned about key issues facing Bend such as affordable housing and higher wages. But, Buehler, in his one term in office, has established a strong reputation as a moderate who has gained much respect working across the aisle. And, in some key cases, he has broken ranks with his Republican party to vote alongside Democrats, establishing a sense of independence. With his background as a physician, he led the way for a bipartisan agreement that provides women in Oregon access to safe, over-the-counter birth control. He also passed a new law allowing the terminally ill to access experimental treatments. Following the Kitzhaber-Hayes public corruption scandal in which the governor resigned, Buehler led a successful effort to protect government whistle blowers. And, he broke with most Republicans to vote against coal in favor of cleaner forms of energy, including solar, wind, and biomass. Goodman-Campbell is well regarded in conservation circles. She works for the Oregon Natural Desert Association, ONDA, where she has led successful efforts to create wilderness

areas like the Badlands Wilderness east of Bend. She is a strong proponent of protecting the Owyhee Canyonlands— while Buehler thinks there should be more collaboration with local interests in Malheur County who are solidly opposed to a wilderness or National Monument designation to protect up to 2.5 million acres in the region. While Goodman-Campbell has a solid future ahead of her, Buehler has much deeper experience in both private and public sector service which is of value to Central Oregonians. No politician is perfect. While not supporting Democrat causes like the minimum wage hike the legislature passed and while opposing Measure 97, the gross receipts tax on this fall’s ballot that many Democrats favor, he has clearly demonstrated he has an independent mind that reaches into both sides of the aisle to seek common solutions. When voting for a candidate we are basically hiring someone. Buehler has broad experience in working with diverse viewpoints and he gets things
done. Goodman-Campbell doesn’t have the rich background of experience that Buehler has—yet. We have no doubt she will, and we encourage her to aim for other local offices to facilitate that. Knute Buehler has that experience now in both the public and private sector—and the courage to break from his party on key issues. The Source Weekly endorses Buehler for re-election, with a nod of encouragement to Goodman-Campbell who has much potential for public service. SW

Stuck in the Muck
Mirror Pond’s owners ask DEQ to step in against the city By Nicole Vulcan 7 Deschutes River from storm water runoff. The recommendations listed in the MPS comment to DEQ are to have the City of Bend better monitor its storm water outflows for evidence of silt deposits, to address funding for dredging, and to develop and implement a long-term solution to the discharge of polluted water into Mirror Pond. The culprits, according to the MPS letter, are the runoff outfalls from “different parts of Bend on both sides of the Deschutes River.” According to the letter, 15 City outfalls aggregate runoff as well as discharging untreated
“It is reasonable to conclude that stormwater discharge from City streets contributes to the majority of the silt that accumulates in Mirror Pond each year.” —MIRROR POND SOLUTIONS Pond Solutions owns the 23.5 acres of land below the high water line of the Deschutes River, which make up Mirror Pond in downtown Bend. The letter states that MPS engaged PBS Engineering and Environmental to collect water and silt samples from Mirror Pond. According to the MPS comments, the water’s turbidity–or particles suspended in water–as well as total suspended solids and silt deposits all exceeded DEQ-mandated acceptable limits. In addition, and more significantly, the MPS letter stated that “none of the outfalls are monitored” by the City. Outfalls are drains that flow directly into the
storm water from City streets directly into Mirror Pond during every rain and snow melt event. The letter states: “It is reasonable to conclude that stormwater discharge from City streets contributes to the majority of the silt that accumulates in Mirror Pond each year.” MPS is asking for a change to the City’s NPDES permit to address the problem. Mirror Pond Solutions is asking the DEQ to step in to enforce the Clean Water Act which may force the City to bear the burden of dredging Mirror Pond. The issue of what to do with Mirror Pond is nothing new to Bend residents and its governing bodies. In March 2015, the Bend City Council narrowly
voted to support the plan offered by the Mirror Pond Ad Hoc committee–also approved by the Bend Park & Recreation District–to replace the failing Newport Dam, owned by Pacific Power. That effort–a long process that involved many community groups–hit another snag this June, when Pacific Power announced that the dam was sound and it would continue to use it for hydropower, as it had long done. Mirror Pond Solutions had announced earlier this June its intent to purchase the dam and to dredge the pond. At that time, where the money would come from was unclear, but under that plan, Bend Park and Recreation District would handle the rehabilitation of the bands of Mirror Pond, while MPS would buy the dam and secure funding to dredge the pond. According to reports, Pacific Power is still willing to work with MPS should they continue with the dredging effort. To address the letter MPS sent to DEQ, City of Bend Utility Director Paul Rheault issued his own letter to DEQ officials September 27. In that letter, Rheault says: “Given the number of inaccuracies in the letter provided, the City felt it important to provide clarification, context, and factual corrections to the DEQ.” For one, the City’s letter states that in addition to the City’s outfalls, “there are additional outfalls that drain private streets, such as in the Old Mill District,” and that those private outfalls are not part of the City’s
system. Rheault’s letter also notes that the City does indeed monitor six outfalls at least twice a year, and does ambient water quality monitoring. In addition, the City’s letter pointed to a 2010 report created by the Upper Deschutes Watershed Council, which found that turbidity was actually decreasing in the “area of City river miles.” Further, the City letter points out that the MPS data was collected during the renovation of the Colorado dam and the construction of the instream water park, when excavator work was putting heavy sediment into the water. The City letter also states street runoff is not contributing all the total petroleum hydrocarbons to the river sediment, as the MPS letter alleges. Rheault’s letter ends with a note that “the connection between dredging to promote water quality is not readily clear.” He goes on to state that the “DEQ water quality controls would not include funding for dredging a river.” In the ongoing saga of Mirror Pond, it’s clear that the emphasis has shifted from a conversation around what to do with Mirror Pond, to a one-solution argument favoring dredging over other possible solutions. But be it from city coffers, federal clean up grants or individual property owners, where the money for dredging is coming from is still very much up in the air. SW

The City of Bend is calling into question the methods by which that group is basing its claims.

Eastside Coalition Pushes for 27th Street Path A coalition of neighborhood associations representing the Old Farm District, Larkspur and Mountain View neighborhoods are asking the city to address bike and pedestrian safety along 27th Street. A project is currently underway to lay new sewer lines under 27th Street between Highway 20 and Reed Market Road. But as the coalition points out, that project does not include any improvements to bike lanes or sidewalks. In addition, there are no continuous sidewalks on either side of that stretch of 27th, according to the coalition. Existing bike lanes, meanwhile, are interrupted in places. In the interest of public safety, representatives from the three neighborhood associations—which the coalition estimates represent 32 percent of Bend tax lots—are presenting in front of the Bend City Council on Oct. 5. Their proposal includes removal of incomplete sections of sidewalk and the construction of an urban trail away from the roadway, extending as far as the canal path near Stevens Road. The coalition is asking for the City to fund the path, with alternate funding coming from Bend Park and Recreation District.

According to enrollment projections provided by Portland State University’s Center for Population Research, the Bend-La Pine student population should reach approximately 19,600 students by 2021. With that, the district’s Sites and Facilities committee estimates a need for seven new schools over the next 20 years. With large class sizes and overcrowding already a problem, it’s definitely something district leaders are working on. “Currently half of our Bend area school(s) are near or above capacity,” says Bend-La Pine Superintendent Shay Mikalson. “We are hiring new teachers, finding creative locations for temporary instructional spaces and bringing in temporary, modular classrooms to accommodate the surging student population.”

Finding solutions to the growing number of park visitors By Russ Axon
I
f Central Oregonians were to compile a list of complaints about living here, it’d probably be a short list. But it’s a safe guess what the number one problem would be: too many people are coming here. Nowhere is this more apparent than at the state parks around the area—and the park hit the hardest is Smith Rock. In the last few years, Smith Rock has become a destination spot for thrill-seekers and outdoor adventurers from all over the world. But is this destination spot being overrun? According to a recent survey, it’s getting annoyingly close. Problems, Plans and Solutions The Oregon Parks and Recreation Department conducted a visitor survey from the end of April to mid-June this year. The survey asked day and overnight visitors about their park-going experience. Of the people surveyed, 83 percent of Smith Rock visitors felt the park was crowded to some degree, which suggests “that crowding in the day and overnight-use areas are at ‘greatly overcapacity’ … and it is generally necessary to manage for high-density recreation.” Philip Dalton lives just down the road from the park with his grandfather. The Terrebonne resident said the park is noticeably denser than when he moved to the area seven years ago. “I never saw the cars pile up all the way down the side of the road. They had no need for an extra parking lot,”
Dalton said. “The last couple years, it’s just boomed so much that there’s no room for people to park anymore. It’s amazing. They had to start parking up on the main road for awhile.” In fact, parking availability ranked lowest on the survey, with only 62 percent satisfied. It’s an issue that Scott Brown, Smith Rock’s park manager, has made a priority. The park set up a temporary 100-space lot over the summer to alleviate the overflow. He hopes to make it permanent next year. “We’re aware of the issues, and we’re working hard to come up with good solutions. That’s mainly being done through this very scientific, detailed, comprehensive master planning process,” Brown said. The master plan that Brown mentioned is what guides the park development and management goals, similar to a business plan. Brown said the current plan is 25 years old and doesn’t account for high volume visitation numbers. “We finally got approval, and we have just started revising that master plan which addresses these things like crowding and a need for additional facilities, or possibly saying, ‘How do we manage the parks in such a way as to limit visitation growth?’” he said. According to Brown, revising the master plan is an 18-month process. It starts with an almost ridiculous amount of data collection, which includes multiple surveys and counting trail usage.
Drawing Crowds This master plan revision comes at a time when Smith Rock has nearly doubled its visitation numbers. Visitor counts recorded by the park show a large surge in visitors within the last three years. Starting in 2002, the park averaged 440,000 daytime visitors each year, according to stats provided by Oregon State Parks. Then in 2012, the park’s attendance for the year jumped to about 545,000. This spike repeated the next two years, topping out at about 746,000 last year. This visitor increase is only shared with a handful of other Central Oregon parks, though none have jumped as high as Smith Rock. A big contributor to that rise is the general growth in Central Oregon. David Potter is the owner and lead guide of Smith Rock Climbing Guides. Like many locals, he’s taken note of the huge influx of people moving to the area. “Central Oregon’s getting to be a lot more popular, getting a lot more publicity, more people are moving here, and people want to get out on the weekends,” Potter said. “It’s definitely world famous climbing. We have people traveling from overseas, and it’s one of the places they’ve got to hit.” The survey also revealed that a majority of Smith Rock’s visitors are from out of town, with almost 60 percent driving 250 miles or more to get to the park. Although Smith Rock has been a popular destination since the park opened in 1960, much of its recent popularity/notoriety is thanks to the Seven Wonders of Oregon ad campaign. Independently spearheaded by Travel Oregon, the campaign highlighted seven unique environments in Oregon—Crater Lake, Mt. Hood, the Columbia River Gorge, Painted Hills, the Wallowas, the Oregon Coast and Smith Rock— with television and movie ads that played around the world in 2014 and 2015. “I have to say, they did an excellent job,” Brown said. “It did bring in a lot of people and increased visitation a significant amount.” Brown said that has also led to more professional filming and photography at the park—
including several scenes from the popular 2014 film “Wild”—which feed into Smith Rock’s iconic status. Taking the Edge Off As a resident, Dalton knew Smith Rock would become crowded sooner or later. “Every great secret gets out. It’s just about expanding with it: putting in the right parking and managing it how it needs to be managed.” To that end, the park staff and locals are always looking for ways to immediately improve and alleviate the park. Besides the temporary parking lot, Brown listed a handful of steps the park staff has taken to accommodate the influx, including improving ease of access to the trails and main entrance, doubling the number of volunteer hours, adding a new seasonal ranger position and streamlining payment and permit options. “There’s been a number of things we got to spiff up and improve the park,” he said. “A lot of the way we do things in general, as far as our day-today duties, have changed to accommodate.” It seems to be working: the park scored an impressive 97 percent in overall satisfaction on the survey. Dalton agreed, awarding the staff an “A+” for their efforts. “I know they’ve improved the walkway. It used to be really bad, loose gravel and a killer to walk up,” he said. “They keep everything up great, and when it needs to be fixed they fix it.” Potter also complimented the park staff ’s responsiveness and involvement. As a frequent visitor, he also tries to help out. “We try to set up a lot of new routes if we can, do a lot of route development to try to thin out the crowds by going to different areas of the park,” he said. He, along with 200 other people, was also part of this year’s Spring Thing, an annual cleaning event hosted by the Smith Rock Group. As park visitation begins to slow down for the season, Brown said he’s ready for even more people to visit Smith Rock next year. “I think it’s truly unique in the Northwest. There’s nothing like it as far as the dramatic geology, the number of sport climbing routes, the easily watchable wildlife,” he said. And even though the park’s unique features will continue to draw larger crowds of visitors, Dalton said he can handle these minor inconveniences. At the end of the day, he might even be responsible for some of them. “I’d love to keep this place a secret,” he said. “But at the same time I come from Portland, and as soon as I get over there the first thing I brag about is this place.” SW

“We have the dual mandate… to protect the resource but provide opportunities to experience it for recreation,” he said. “So we’ve got to find that balance, and to do that we need more hard data.” Once the data is analyzed, the plan will receive input from three different committees, as well as the general public who can comment on drafts of the plan during three meetings throughout next year.

You drink it, maybe even daily. You wear the swag and you herald the scene. When you live in Central Oregon, a love of fermented beverages comes almost as natural as a daily dose of full sun. In this year’s beer issue, it’s not just about flavor and the end product. Like all craft products, the process starts with great ingredients, and better yet, local ones. The “Love Behind your Beer” is ideally local love – so read on to find out how the area’s producers are contributing to your beer (and cider too).

ble given current rates. It’s actually cheaper for them to bring it in from south Idaho or Canada than it is even from the Willamette Valley,” says Hayes. That’s not really an issue for Klann and his family, whose estate malt is often sold out even before it begins to steep in their malt house. Several local breweries, including Bend’s Ale Apothecary, are already playing with Mecca Grade Estate malts. The Klanns have plans to scale their operation to continue to meet demand, yet for the time being, they’re focused on providing offbeat varieties with a lot of flavor. The Klanns and Hayes, along with his research team, have partnered up to test various varieties, including OSU’s “Half Pint” variety that’s grown on the Klann farm. Right now, hops continue to get the cred for being the flavor-producing factor in beer, but Klann, Hayes and other barleyphiles are working to get the word out about the “meaty” influence barley has on beer. “We were told by the big guys that barley variety doesn’t really matter— and you’re not going to tell a wine grower that variety has no impact on flavor of the wine—that’s not true at all,” Klann says. “We’re only now starting to see that variety has a tremendous impact on flavor. People are kind of coming around to it, but it’s still kind of the last link in that whole local beer food chain.” SW

In case you were curious about the relative importance of each ingredient in your beer, that quote from Madras resident Seth Klann should set some things straight. Here’s another way of putting it: Barley–and its resultant product, malt–is the bulk that makes up most of your beloved pint. Klann should know; he and his family own the only malting facility in Central Oregon, operating on a farm that’s been in the family since 1905. Klann got into the malt biz for a love of beer. When he returned from his undergraduate studies at Oregon State University in Corvallis, Klann began home brewing beer, often sourcing his malt from as far away as Germany. Outside his windows, meanwhile, spikes of barley swayed in the sun. “I was looking out at this field and we’re growing this stuff, so I thought why can’t we be malting this stuff here locally?” Klann explains. That passing thought rapidly turned into a serious effort to not just grow his own barley for personal beer production, but also to provide an opportunity for local brewers and distillers to source their malt locally. Until the Klanns dreamed up the Mecca Grade Estate Malt craft facility in Madras about four years
ago, brewers’ choices for local malt were nil. Today the Klanns are steadily growing their operation, patterning their facility off the estate winery model in which everything is grown on site and then turned into the end product at the same location. First comes the growing of barley; next is the steeping, germinating and drying of the grain to make malt. “One of the big things is just kind of a reconnection with brewers and distillers to their raw ingredients, and that’s been kind of the focus of the whole project,” Klann says. It might seem like a no-brainer that brewers focused on the “local” schtick would source their ingredients locally—as they often do with hops—but when it comes to barley, it’s not that simple. “Most barley in the world is used for animal feed, but the feed market is notoriously fickle,” says Dr. Patrick Hayes, an OSU professor of barley breeding and products. The challenge for farmers who could be producing barley in Central Oregon, Hayes says, is that other crops provide them with greater assured revenue. Not only that, but big malt suppliers, such as Great Western Malting in Vancouver, Wash., see a cost savings by using existing freighting channels–which don’t include Madras or other places in Central Oregon. “The reason they’re not sourcing barley from Madras—a very good place for sourcing barley—is freighting it out of there is just not possi-

Living in Beertown, USA like we do, we don’t forget that brewing is an art form and that each batch has its own special little notes that makes it original. Let’s get scientific for a second. Hops are the flowers (also known as seed cones or strobiles) of the hop plant Humulus lupulus. They stabilize and add flavor to beer, which means the hop plant is our friend, now and always. Wort is the sugary liquid made from the malt which, when boiled with the hops and then combined with yeast, starts the fermentation process. How a brewer uses hops is just one step on the long road to a finished beer. With wet hops, dry hops, pellets, oils and other methods, the methods for using hops are open for interpretation. Steve Denio from GoodLife Brewing talks a little about their process. “When you throw in a hop it does something immediately called ‘emulsify’ which means it cooks out
all the flavor and cooks in the bitter,” says Denio. “The cooler the wort temperature, the more you keep in that flavor. That’s why people dry hop a ton because it puts a lot on the nose and then maybe a little bit in the beer. We temperature control hop, so we put a cold water jacket around it so it doesn’t cook out all that flavor or cook in the bitterness. We essentially cool the temperature a little bit.” The Yakima Valley and the Willamette Valley are the primary places in the Pacific Northwest to grow hops, but Central Oregon has been slowly growing into the hop agriculture business for the last decade. Bend natives Gary and Susan Wyatt are the pioneers of Central Oregon hop farming with Tumalo Hops Company, founded in 2006. “We’re grossing out at about 2,200 pounds. off of two acres and we have six different varieties that we’re growing,” says Gary Wyatt. Growing hops in Central Oregon has some interesting benefits as well as challenges. “We don’t have a full 120 days sometimes for growing season,” says Wyatt. “That’s what they need. We had exactly 120 days this year. The benefits are that we don’t have the powdery mildew or too much of the pest control. Yes,
we have aphids and spider mites, but our nights get cool enough so we only have to spray or put out traps once a year while the Valley does it five or six times a year.” Smith Rock Hop Farm is growing 900 plants on an acre of land in Terrebonne and is in its third season of operation. Head farmer and partner Miles Wilhelm talks a bit about his view of hops: “I always think of growing hops is as difficult as brewing really good beer. There’s a lot of time and a lot of learning that goes into it. You’re gonna fail many times before you nail it. Hops can be a little bit fickle.” LadyHops co-founder Mel Parker leased 150 mature hop plants from Steve and Bev Oberg of the Powell Butte Bison Ranch back in 2014. Parker says: “We’re an organic farm. We don’t spray with pesticides. We handpick every hop so brewers are getting the best quality for what they’re paying for.” Parker also brings at-risk young women out to the ranch to teach them farming and was recently awarded a MUSE grant. With these three groups growing some of the best hops in the state, Central Oregon has another claim on being Beertown, USA. SW

When it comes to locally-sourced beverages, cider makers have no trouble finding their main ingredient pretty close to home.
are both fruit pressed and fermented to create alcoholic treats. Cideries aren’t brewing; they are working with juice logistics to create an alternative for the craft beer drinker. What set Atlas apart at its conception four years ago was adding other fruit juices in with the apple juice. Seasonal fruits like apricots, blackberries and cherries are sourced from the Yakima area in Washington. (I personally am looking forward to the upcoming Cinnamon Pear winter seasonal.) The magic happens when experimenting with blends of the fruit juices to give a tasty balance between sweet, dry and tart. Finding the perfect ratio is a delicate process not devoid
of surprises. As it aged, Atlas’ Dragonfruit summer seasonal changed colors from magenta to a lighter pink—an interesting color for something without additives. Meanwhile, unexpected challenges come with the territory when working with fruit. Just like vintners, Atlas is directly connected—and dependent—on the land. Cider prices will vary with the season and are subject to changes in the weather. If there is a lot of good rain, then the fruit has a good season and we enjoy lower prices. Hence, Atlas’ tagline, “Northwest to the Core.” SW
Yeast
Pound for pound, its contribution is microscopic. Still, yeast is a key flavor factor in your beer.

Oregon state legislators declared Saccharomyces cerevisiae the Oregon state microbe in 2013. Also known as brewer’s yeast, the tiny fungus has been instrumental in brewing and baking since ancient times.
•
Home brewers and startups typically buy the yeast strain that corresponds to the type of beer they want to brew. Once established, breweries typically regenerate their own yeast.

With the plethora of apple varieties available, one might think a blend would go into making a hard cider. Alas, that’s not the case. At Bend’s Atlas Cider Company, it’s the Granny Smith that contains just the right amount of tartness and flavor needed for the perfect juice blend. The company processes 10,000 gallons of apple juice a month—plus 5,000 gallons of other fruit juices, to craft their delicious ciders. That’s a lot of juice. So where does it all come from? The state of Washington produces two-thirds of the nation’s apples, with Oregon coming in seventh in terms of production. With the abundance of fruit available, making cider in the Pacific Northwest is a locavore’s dream. All of the juice that goes into Atlas Cider is sourced from Oregon orchards in the Hood River area. A local co-op sorts and stores the apples in warehouses, allowing fresh fruit to be available year round. They also press the apples before shipping in
5,000 gallon tankers to Atlas’s production facility on Wilson Avenue. High speed pumps take about a half hour to transfer the juice from the tanker to the fermentation tanks. The apples pressed to juice in the morning in Hood River will then begin fermenting in Bend that same day. The fermentation process for cider is a little longer than beer. After three weeks it can start to get too dry and wine-like, losing the residual sweetness of the fruit. After filtration, the kegging and canning process is the same as the craft beer industry—even though cideries are actually licensed as wineries. If you think about it, it makes total sense.

The Reverend Josh Peyton promises to raise more than a little bit of hell By L. Kent Wolgamott 21 VOLUME 20 ISSUE 40 / October 6, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY
Promising to put on a show, Reverend Peyton’s Big Damn Band tours with The Supersuckers and Jesse Dayton this fall. Photo by Tyler Zoller.
T
he Reverend Josh Peyton learned a long time ago that there’s more to music than playing an instrument and writing songs. “When I was a kid, I’d go to see shows and I started to figure some things out,” he said in a recent phone interview. “I realized early on to be good, you’ve got to be good on your instrument, you’ve got to be good at writing songs and you have to put on a show.” That’s why The Reverend Peyton’s Big Damn Band—playing with The Supersuckers and Jesse Dayton in Bend Oct. 16–brings not just solid country blues songs, but a dynamic, high-energy and entertaining show. “You will never come to one of our shows and see us staring at our feet, acting like the audience isn’t there or we don’t care,” Peyton said. “ When I see a band doing that, it makes me mad. I literally get mad. I get angry. That’s not at all what it’s about.” What it is about is showmanship–
something that’s been pivotal for decades. “My hero is Charley Patton,” Peyton said of the father of the Delta Blues. “He played behind his head, between his legs. He’d throw the guitar in the air. He’d say funny things between the lines of a song. He didn’t take himself seriously, even when the songs were serious as a heart attack.” When they hit the stage, Peyton, his washboard-playing wife Breezy and drummer Ben “Bird Dog” Russell aim at getting the audience moving rather than just standing and staring. “All the uniquely American genres of music started as dance music, from old timey music and bluegrass to blues, country, rock ‘n’ roll, jazz,” Peyton said. “They were all meant to be listened to while people were getting close to each other and dancing.” After that, Peyton says, the show is up to the audience. “I feed off the crowd,” he said. “I always think I have a great night–but if
I’m really going to have one, it’s up to the crowd.” Of course, good music doesn’t hurt, and the current release, “So Delicious,” is the band’s eighth full-length release and its first under a new deal with Yazoo Records. It’s the group’s best effort yet and the first album that captures what the trio, which formed in 2003 in the Indianapolis area, sounds like live. “Our early records were like field recordings,” Peyton said “We’d throw up mics and play live. It actually takes more effort to make it feel live than just throwing up mics. Over the years, we’ve learned that.” Among the most notable songs on the record are the charming downhome-in-the-kitchen ramble, “Pot Roast and Kisses.” “If you can listen to that song and not at least smile, maybe you and I are so far apart we should see other people,” Peyton said. Meanwhile, the country blues march, “Raise a Little
Hell,” has the band joined by a children’s choir. “I wanted kids to sing with me, one, because it sounded awesome and two, it helped with the joke,” he said. “Some people aren’t getting it. But here’s where it came from. We played this roots festival—we play dozens of those things, they’re our bread and butter. After we were done, one of the guys that ran the thing came up to me and said, ‘Some of the people on the committee thought you raised too much hell.’ I thought, ‘We don’t raise that much hell, maybe a little.' Then it occurred to me you raise hell or you don’t. You can’t raise a little hell.” SW

enver and Minneapolis are set to collide in a clash of who can bring Bend the best blues-fueled, rip-roaring rock-out the Midwest has to offer. Starting in Seattle, the Central Oregon stop will mark the third show of a co-headlining tour featuring Colorado’s The Yawpers and Minnesota’s The 4onthefloor–and each party is talking a big game in advance of this duel of honest American bands. Touring and recording, recording and touring (and repeating), The 4onthefloor is the kind of band whose creative juices flow both onstage and off, backstage and in the backyard. Consistently going All In—same as the title of their third full-length record released last year—the four-piece’s setup features four bass drums. Yes, that’s four kick drums, one at the feet of each member, that allow them to
“throw pretty damn great parties that involve rock ‘n’ roll in 4/4 time,” which also just so happens to be the time signature used in all of their gritty, bluesy tunes. “It’s a primal beat,” states frontman Gabriel Douglas. And when “those drums get humming, it’s like nothing else on this earth.” Full of fire and steadily stomping forward, The 4onthefloor simply four guys who “put their hearts, their minds, and their livelihoods on the line in the name of rock ‘n’ roll,” Douglas says. “Good times can still be found anywhere in this country, and now they are coming to Bend.” Meanwhile, The Yawpers have readied themselves in the recording studio, just wrapping up sessions for a future release, yet continue to support their second full-length record, "American Man," also released in 2015. Vacillating
between folksy ballads and frenetic rock, the album highlights the band’s compelling versatility, from a hoedown reminiscent of Charlie Daniels’ “The Devil Went Down to Georgia,” to blazing patches of overdriven acoustic and slide guitars with hints of psychedelia. A three-piece blitz of punk-tinged Americana, the guys are “always excited to bring the record to the stage, and act the fool,” drummer Noah Shomberg says. Expect “a lot of expectorant, sweat and tears of self-contempt (from us),” he jokes. High off a month of working on new music, the guys are equally excited to “continue as the derelict road dogs we always have been,” until the record drops. “I’d suggest hydrating before the show,” Shomberg advises. Point being, both bands bring a fierce howl and strong sense of their
musical roots, prompting Shomberg to prophesize that although, “This will be our first tour together, I’m sure we’ll get on famously.” In the end, it’s not really a competition because everyone’s a winner— especially you if you get your butt down to the Volcanic. And you better because the bands actually have high expectations for you: “Our buds in Larry and His Flask have told us even grander tales of the wit and the mayhem of the locals,” Douglas tells. “We are ready to witness and to indulge.” SW The Yawpers and The 4onthefloor Thursday, Oct. 13, 9pm Volcanic Theatre Pub, 70 SW Century Dr., Bend Tickets at bendticket.com $10 adv., $12 door

ho says our Beer Issue has to be all about drinking beer in a vacuum of nonsense small talk? If you like drinking beer while watching “How It’s Made” or reruns of “Myth Busters,” then you need to attend a local Science Pub. The monthly events take scientists out of the sterile lab setting and put them in local taverns, where the public can kick back with a tasty brew while
OSU in downtown Corvallis. Coffin says, “OSU is a research powerhouse. It accounts for more research funding than nearly all of the state’s comprehensive public universities combined.” The idea is that a casual lecture series like the Science Pub gives attendees an insight into the depth, breadth and impact of OSU’s research while introducing them to the

being taken on a journey into the fascinating world of science. The collaboration between Oregon State University-Cascades and OSU’s main Corvallis campus allows attendees to meet some of the institutions’ leading researchers and gain a better understanding of what they are accomplishing, all in the most natural setting for locals imaginable: a pub. Launched in 2009, the OSU-Cascades’ Science Pub series was developed as a way for the University to engage the community in the amazing work that OSU and OSU-Cascades researchers had underway. According to Christine Coffin, director of communications & outreach for OSU-Cascades, the series was modeled after a similar one hosted by
talented people who devote their careers to understanding and improving the world. Science Pub series also gives guests a better understanding of how research can be directly applicable to people’s lives--research that does things such as protecting human health, solving problems in food, energy, and water systems and managing natural resources. Coffin says, “(The results) also make their way into businesses like OnBoard Dynamics here in Bend, which launched using licensed technology innovated by OSU-Cascades’ engineering professor Chris Hagen.” The OSU-Cascades’ Science Pubs are hosted at McMenamins in Bend, and according to Coffin, the goal is
to expand them to surrounding areas such as Sisters, Redmond, and other Central Oregon communities. To date, OSU-Cascades has hosted about 50 Science Pubs on topics from beer, to the physiology of dogs in the Iditarod race, to the sense of flavor, to autism, to barley breeding. Coffin says, “We have many attendees who come regularly and always welcome newcomers.” The Science Pubs consistently sell out, demonstrating the community’s thirst for knowledge. Upcoming Science Pubs include “Wolves in Oregon: Fact, Research, Issues” on Oct. 18, which will be led by John Williams, associate professor in the Department of Animal and Rangeland Sciences at OSU College of Agriculture. It will introduce participants to a study launched in 2008 that collected data on cattle and wolves over a six-year period. On Nov. 15 George Waldbusser, associate professor of Ocean Ecology and Biogeochemistry at OSU College of Earth and Ocean and Atmospheric Sciences, will lead “Denying the Deniers: The Science of Ocean Acidification,” which will discuss the current state of knowledge on ocean acidification and its impacts on marine life.

On Sept. 26, Deschutes Brewery’s iconic holiday beer Jubelale went on tap. For locals, it marks the beginning of the holiday season. While most look forward to its arrival for the beer’s signature layered seasonal flavors, the local artwork displayed on its label each year is another part of what makes the brew beloved by so many. According to Jason Randles, digital marketing manager for Deschutes Brewery, Jubelale was the first beer hand bottled at the pub after it opened in 1988. In 1995 the brewery began commissioning local artists to create artwork for the packaging. Past artists include Kasey Anseth, who created the 25th anniversary label from a collage she made using labels from past years. Karen Ruane is this year’s featured artist, with a seasonal piece appropriately entitled “First Snow.” Ruane is one of the partners at The Wilds, an artist workspace in Bend. Her work caught Randles’ eye while he was there touring the space. Randles says, “I was really impressed with the marbled paper technique and her unique style. I had never seen anything like it before.” Ruane’s piece is inspired by the changes the first storm brings to the high desert landscape and perfectly fits the basic criteria that the Deschutes team is looking for: art that is unique, festive and wintery, and translates well to packaging. On Oct. 3, Jubelale fans had the chance to meet Ruane at the official release party where she signed posters as part of the annual tradition. Jubelale will be available to purchase through December. Ruane’s work will go on display along with the past artists’ pieces in the Jubelale Hall of Fame, located at the brewery. SW

Don’t Dream It, Be It
“Rocky Horror” returns for the month of October By Jared Rasic 35
Just a little bit of an orgy to keep things moving. Photo courtesy of Tommy Kuchulis.
Diving into this year’s rehearsal process was fairly laid back. “The first ‘rehearsal’ was over a Sunday afternoon brunch,” says Kuchulis. “I work at The Village Baker and had scored some leftover cinnamon swirl bread from the day before. I gathered the cast in a casual setting and talked to each of them about what they wanted to bring to their characters.” The cast for this year’s “Rocky Horror” is a mixture of veterans and virgins. “Some of them had done the show before, but for the most part everyone was new to their role,” says Kuchulis. “I asked them in what three ways did they want to bring their character to life and how they wanted to make the character bigger. Everyone knows the film, but I wanted everyone to add something more and bring something to the character that was unique to them. I also reminded every
actor that their character is not always on screen while they are on stage, so it was important to me that they stayed in character and added reactions while staying true to the characters' mannerisms. Rehearsals were very casual (almost too casual) up until tech week.” That casualness kept the show feeling fresh, like anything could happen. Everyone knew their characters backwards and forwards, but the madcap free-for-all of the Time Warp, the orgy and The Sword of Damocles feel raw. “Rocky Horror” shouldn’t be highly polished; it should be running makeup, sweaty dildos and running in heels. From Matt Vigil’s and Lylly J. Von Hurst’s Brad and Janet, all the way to Miranda Rose’s Columbia and Rachel Gilland’s Magenta, the show is perfectly cast and everyone finds something original to add to these iconic characters.
Even as we progress further away from “Rocky Horror’s” mid-70s origins, some of the themes and ideas have become more widely accepted—but there is still a long way to go. It’s been over 40 years and gay rights is still an everyday struggle, the trans community still faces violence across the globe and homophobia still runs rampant. “Rocky and Frank get married in the first 40 minutes of the film and gay marriage wasn’t legal in the U.S. until late last year,” says Kuchulis. “I think society has a long way to go before anything depicted in the film, besides quintessential Brad and Janet, becomes normalized and widely accepted across cultures. When you break it all down there’s no reason anyone can’t be who they want to be and do what they need to do, if it doesn’t harm others.” As I walked home at 2:30am with my goodie bag filled with glow sticks, toast, playing cards, toilet paper and all kinds of other stuff, I realized why I’ve loved “Rocky Horror” for the last 25 years. Sure, it’s the music and the characters, but more importantly, it’s the idea of being accepted for exactly who you are that’s always made me smile. That even though I’m old in body and spirit, there’s a glitter-and-leather-covered tribe out there waiting for me.

T
his has come up before, but I just wanted to reiterate that most days I feel like an old-ass man. Not just in body, but also in mind. People annoy me and I sometimes think the sun is overrated. If I had a lawn, I guarantee that I would yell at people to remove themselves from it, post haste. But you know what I love aside from family, movies and a few select people? "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." I’ve loved it since I accidentally watched it at eight years old. It’s one of the few things that would drag me out of the warmth and comfort of my house at midnight to yell at a screen and throw toast at strangers and friends. This is the third year that the good people at Lonely Fish Production and 2nd Street Theater have done the midnight shadow performances of “Rocky Horror,” and I’ve been to all of them. Instead of just screening the movie or doing the production, they do both simultaneously. As the movie plays in the background, a talented group of singers, dancers and actors in full costume and makeup perform the show like they’re inside of it. Tommy Kuchulis reprises the role of Dr. Frank N. Furter and also takes over directorial duties. His good Doctor is wonderful, as Kuchulis finds the humor, the sexiness and the heartbreak and dances between the extremes beautifully. Even with Tim Curry’s iconic performance playing in the background, it’s hard to take your eyes off of Kuchulis.

Sterilize The most important safeguard in brewing is to make sure your equipment—all of it—is thoroughly sterilized. Bacteria are the worst enemy of a brewer. A spoiled batch of ale or lager is not only disappointing, but costly. Many home brewers sterilize their equipment before and after they brew which helps prevent bacteria growth between sessions. Sterilize everything, including boil kettles, measuring equipment, fermentation carboys, fermentation locks, siphon tubes, etc.
Taco Stand Reopens Under New Ownership
Boiling Kettles A large boiling kettle that will contain the volume of the wort (beer mixture), including hops, helps avoid boil over. If you are boiling your brew on a kitchen burner you will appreciate not having to clean the burner afterward. Better yet, purchase a burner to boil your brew in the garage or backyard. Be sure to crack a garage door for ventilation. Chilling the Wort About 45 to 50 minutes into a robust boil, it’s a good idea to add a bit of Irish moss into the mixture. This helps in the ultimate clarification of the brew. After boiling your mixture for approximately an hour it’s very important to chill it to the proper temperature before adding the yeast. Adding yeast to a mixture that’s too warm will kill yeast cells, so a chilling mechanism is important. Many home brewers place the boil kettle in a utility sink and surround it with cold water and ice. You may have to keep adding ice until the temperature of the wort inside the kettle drops to below 72 degrees Fahrenheit. An even better temperature is 68 degrees. Carboy Fermentation Glass carboys are generally the most preferred method of fermenting a home brew. After the mixture reaches the proper yeast temperature, transfer the wort from kettle to carboy. If you are making a 5-gallon batch, a 6-gallon carboy works well and provides

enough room for an active fermentation. Once the transfer of the wort is completed, add the yeast and give it a thorough swirl-shake to distribute the yeast. This also helps provide some oxygen which helps in the activation of the fermentation process. Make sure the fermentation air lock is firmly inserted into the carboy to keep out unwanted air and bacteria. Fermentation should begin within hours. Within 24 hours, fermentation should be robust and you should be able to smell beer in the making. Keep it out of direct sunlight. Many brewers will cover carboys with a blanket or old shirt. After about a week to 10 days of fermentation, bubbling will slow to a near stop and the beer should be ready to transfer to another carboy for secondary fermentation and clarification. A week-long secondary fermentation process allows more sediment to settle, plus the beer ages. Many home brewers prefer to keg their beer to avoid the hassle of bottling. If you want to take a bottle
or growler of beer to a party or share with a friend, it’s easy to draw it from the keg. Don’t rush the aging process before tapping. A good rule of thumb from boiling to tapping for ale is about a month. Lagers take longer. Write It Down Keep an accurate log of what you create. Nothing is worse than producing a great brew and not having a log of the exact ingredients or process. Cheers! Learn the Craft from Others The Brew Shop on Third Street in Bend offers equipment and expertise for the beginning or advanced home brewer.

If you dropped by Bend’s longtime fave Taco Stand late last week, you were probably met with a shut and locked door. No, it didn’t mean that you’d never again get a taste of those uber-affordable burritos—it just meant you’d have to wait until the place opened back up under its new ownership. After 21 years of carrying the torch, owner Gene Fitzsimmons has decided to pursue interests that don’t include assembling meat, beans and cheese into tasty concoctions. In other words, he’s retiring. Fitzsimmons says he put the business up for sale this month and sold the place in just a matter of days. “I didn’t expect it to go that quick,” says Fitzsimmons. “I am so glad it went quick like that…I’ve seen things like this drag on for months.” The new owner is Marcos Rodriguez, owner of the Esta Bien restaurant on Third Street in Bend. Taco Stand is located at 221 NW Hill Street, an area with a commercial zoning designation. Because the place has been a restaurant since the 1970s (under various ownership), it’s grandfathered in as a sit-down spot—something that other businesses in the area haven’t been able to accomplish. “We are really excited about being in this neighborhood,” says Rodriguez of his new digs. Like his other location, the TacoStand-turned-Esta-Bien will feature fresh corn tortillas and freshly-cooked foods—and not to mention margaritas–from 11am to 8pm, 7 days a week. Rodriguez says he plans to have the restaurant open by Oct. 7—so if you’re reading this after that date, it might be time to stop back in. SW

t seems fair to say that Chicago’s Goose Island Beer Co., owners of the largest barrel-aged beer program in the United States, would like to have a do-over on last year’s Bourbon County Brand Stout release. Four out of the six BCBS variants released in 2015, including both the original and variations like the Coffee Stout and Barleywine, were subject to recalls and refunds. This was chiefly thanks to some unwanted lacticacid bacteria getting into the kegs during the aging process, resulting in beer that (especially in Coffee’s case) produced bizarre sour and chemical-like flavors that grew more pronounced as 2016 wore on. There are also reports that 2016 BCBS will be scarcer on the market than last year—especially in GI’s more far-flung distribution areas like Oregon— because quite a number of barrels had to be dumped due to further lacto-infections. Why did this happen? Poor luck coupled with practices that, in hindsight, may have led to contamination risks. For example, it’s a somewhat common custom to back-flush bourbon barrels in order to extract the so-called “devil’s take”—the bourbon that gets absorbed into the barrel wood. Going overboard with this, however, can leave barrels dried out, and dried-out barrels can lead to low pH levels and an inviting environment for unwanted foreign invaders. Goose’s solution with the four BCBS variants they’re releasing in November was to subject them to
“flash” pasteurization, which typically involves heating beer to 160 degrees for 15 to 30 seconds then rapidly cooling it down. In a blog post, GI brewmaster Jared Jankoski assured readers that this would have no negative effect on the beer: “The key benefit is microbiological stabilization, which is helpful for wood-aged beers where the barrels we use can be inconsistent. Most importantly, there is no discernible flavor impact.” Pasteurization and beer have a long history—Louis Pasteur invented it in the first place to keep beer and wine from souring; milk pasteurization wasn’t standard until much later. Some beer fans have voiced concerns that killing the active yeast in future BCBS batches would rob the beer of whatever changes the aging process would bring out, a key factor considering how much fun taste-testing multiple BCBS years at once can be. But then again, look at Deschutes. For barrel releases like The Abyss and Black Butte, they’ve been flash-pasteurizing the barrel-aged part of the blend since 2010, after a Brettanomyces infection struck several special releases in a row. Has that affected the quality? No—and whenever the brewpub offers Abyss verticals, every year still has its own individual flavor while retaining the properties that make the stout stand out so much. And while it remains to be seen whether GI can duplicate that success, GI implementing pasteurization certainly isn’t going to stop the upcoming Black Friday assault on beer stores nationwide. SW

Tim Burton's X-Men
"Miss Peregrine" is peculiarly empty By Jared Rasic 41 VOLUME 20 ISSUE 40 / October 6, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY
While the children may look creepy, they are, in fact, quite sweet underneath.
T
im Burton’s films are primarily focused on outsiders—people who don’t fit into mainstream society, and when they try, are either humiliated, heartbroken or forced to commit horrible acts of violence. If you look at “Edward Scissorhands,” “Ed Wood,” “Pee-Wee’s Big Adventure,” and “Sleepy Hollow,” you’ll find stories of people leaving their comfort zones and trying to become accepted in the larger world, discovering what their limitations are and adjusting accordingly. “Miss Peregrine’s Home for Peculiar Children” is filled with characters hiding from the outside world. They aren’t hiding just because they’re shy or embarrassed, but because if the bad guys find them, they will eat the eyes straight from their head. Personal stakes don’t get much higher than that. The story follows Jake Portman, a modern day 16-year-old kid who grew up hearing his grandpa’s stories about a children’s home filled with children with extraordinary abilities. He also
heard about the Wights, the group of immortal, partially human creatures who hunt the children. When Jake’s grandfather is murdered by a hollowgast (a monster controlled by the Wights), he sees the creature and starts to doubt his own mental health. So he heads to Cairnholm Island in Wales to find the children’s home his grandfather grew up in and prove to himself and his terrible father that he’s not crazy. The home is filled with kids with all sorts of weird and wonderful gifts. Millard is invisible, Olive is pyrokinetic, Fiona controls plants, Hugh has a beehive in his stomach, Enoch resurrects the dead, Emma controls air, and so on. The house itself and the acreage around it exist in a time loop, controlled and maintained by Miss Peregrine (Eva Green), a magical headmistress who can change into a bird. The time loop exists on a single day in 1940, so all of the children haven’t aged a day physically, even as their
minds have grown into adulthood and old age. There is so much plot to the film (and novel), that character moments are few and far between. We never really get to know Jake other than his outward tics, and the peculiar kids are
It’s like he got to dabble in the X-Men and Harry Potter universes while still indulging his baroque stylistic choices. just built around a series of quirks. As gorgeous as some of the sequences of the film are, we never care enough about the characters to feel much jeopardy about their well being. The book ends on a bit of a cliffhanger, setting up what the following book will focus on. The film, meanwhile, invents a terrible action climax that wraps up the story in a rushed and
unsatisfying way. This will probably be the only time I complain about a possible franchise starter NOT leaving a few dangling threads. Tim Burton was born to tell the story of these weird kids. It’s like he got to dabble in the X-Men and Harry Potter universes while still indulging his baroque stylistic choices. There are definitely signs of a good movie here and Bruno Delbonnel’s cinematography always makes the film interesting to look at, but, as has been Burton’s habit for several films now, the film is just as soulless as its villains.

FILM SHORTS By Jared Rasic 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

Law of Attraction 2.0
Energy flows where attention goes.
This Sunday’s talk is part of our Law of Attraction 2.0 series. This week we will explore “The Power of Focus” which includes both what we are paying attention to and the emotional energy we use to fuel our focus. —Rev.

DEEPWATER HORIZON: A disaster film disguised as an action movie ripped from the headlines. The film—based on the story of a drilling rig explosion in the Gulf of Mexico— avoids most of the political implications and just focuses on regular people making heroic choices to save lives. While there is something strange about a true-life tragic disaster being turned into 90 minutes of Mark Wahlberg running from explosions, the film is also undeniably entertaining. See full review on p. 43. 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
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
LONDON ROAD: “London Road” is a musical mystery thriller based on the National Theatre musical of the same name. It is based on interviews about Steve Wright, an English serial killer who murdered at least five sex workers in Suffolk. While this might sound like a weird set-up for a musical, this is one of the most memorable films of the year. Tin Pan Theater
MASTERMINDS: Due to financial issues Relativity Media was going through, “Masterminds” has been pushed forward several times from its initial release date of August 2015. This comedy/heist flick has been released to lukewarm reviews, but with Zach Galifianakis, Kristen Wiig, Owen Wilson, Kate McKinnon, Leslie Jones and Jason Sudeikis in the cast, it should at least be worth a spin. Hell, it's probably worth watching just for Galifianakis' sweet mullet. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX MISS PEREGRINE'S HOME FOR PECULIAR CHILDREN: Tim Burton takes on another group of misunderstood loners in this adaptation of the 2011 YA novel by Ransom Riggs. While the film has a few amazing visuals and some gorgeous cinematography, the pacing, script and direction are all over the place. There are several good aspects to the film, but not enough to make for a solid recommendation. See full review on p. 41. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX
MISS SHARON JONES!: A documentary about funk and soul singer Sharon Jones. Jones didn't even release her first album until she was 40, so the doc focuses on her long road to eventual breakout success. This is an absolute crowd-pleaser, big hearted and warm throughout. She has toured with Phish, Lou Reed, David Byrne and Michael Buble and is widely considered to be the female James Brown. Tin Pan Theater QUEEN OF KATWE: Even though Disney puts out at least one underdog sports movie a year, they have the formula down so perfectly that's it's almost impossible not to love them. This one tells the story of Phiona Mutesi, a Ugandan chess prodigy who competes in the World Chess Olympiads. While watching people play chess isn't as exciting as, say, hockey, watching the strategy and intensity of the mental battle should be plenty intense. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX
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 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. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX SW

"Deepwater Horizon" is a nail-biting thriller By Jared Rasic 43 VOLUME 20 ISSUE 40 / October 6, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY
“D
eepwater Horizon” should not be as good as it is. There’s something inherently offensive about turning a true story in which 11 people lost their lives into an action thriller/disaster picture. That’s akin to making a film about the Boston marathon bombing and shooting it like a film noir/detective thriller focused on the hunt for the bomber. It might make for a good movie, but something feels a little cynical. Amazingly though, “Deepwater Horizon” almost completely works as a pulse-pounding action flick and as an indictment of BP as a company that was much more concerned with being behind schedule that they were about safety. The script doesn’t politicize the drilling aspect of the story, but instead focuses on normal people doing heroic things, because America. Deepwater Horizon was a semi-submersible Mobile Offshore Drilling Unit that was owned and operated by Transocean. They were drilling the Macando Prospect oil field for BP about 40 miles southeast of the Louisiana coast. On April 20, 2010, there was an explosion and a fire aboard Deepwater Horizon that killed 11, injured 17 and pumped 340,000 gallons of crude oil into the Gulf of Mexico per day. The film stars Mark Wahlberg as Mike Williams, an electrical engineer aboard Deepwater Horizon who, along with Chief Jimmy “Mr. Jimmy” Harrell, thinks they might be on a bad well. Horizon is falling apart around them and they are several weeks behind schedule with drilling. John Malkovich plays Donald Vidrine, a BP suit more focused on the bottom line than the human lives aboard the ship. Vidrine’s
Sad Wahlberg is sad. See his movie and make him smile.
pressure causes Mr. Jimmy and a few others to make the terrible choices that led up to the explosion. Knowing that everything is about to explode makes the film tense even during run-of-the-mill discussions. Director Peter Berg escalates the tension to sweaty palms, but never makes any of it feel like a video game or a super hero movie. As ridiculous as it is watching Kurt Russell and Mark Wahlberg run around an exploding ship saving people, Berg’s direction makes all of it work. The only truly horrendous misstep is Malkovich’s Creole accent, which comes across like a little kid trying to do an impression of Gambit.
In a way, “Deepwater Horizon” fixes many of the issues I had with “Sully.” “Sully” spent so much time focusing on manufactured drama that it forgot the human heroism it took to land a plane in the Hudson River. There might be a ton of manufactured drama in “Deepwater Horizon,” but the film places blame where it squarely belongs and never takes its eye off of the cost of living through something like that. There is a light touch of humanity in every character populating the Deepwater Horizon. If I was a survivor of Deepwater Horizon or one of the family members of the deceased, I might find this movie terribly offensive because it is,

at heart, an action movie. Watching sweaty Wahlberg running and jumping as his muscles glisten in the flickering flame could seem so cynical and offensive, except for one thing: It’s a great action movie. As a human, I see how that’s problematic. As a cinephile, I loved every second of it. SW

Aviation and Avian Creatures GO HERE Can be Friends Again By Hayley Jo Murphy
Local technology helps protect wildlife in the sky By Brian Jennings

“Globally, bird strikes will cost commercial aviation $3 billion in damage in 2016. Domestically, it will cost airlines $1.2 billion.” —DOUG LA PLACA PRECISE FLIGHT CEO
attention to the pulse light system it manufactures that helps keep birds from colliding with aircraft. “It’s not an exaggeration. We have reached out to everyone in the aviation industry over the past two months. We’ll have some very exciting news that we’ll be announcing in the near future.” “Bird Strikes are a very real and growing problem for the airlines,” says La Placa. Bird populations— especially large birds like geese and cranes—are growing rapidly. La Placa says the Canada goose population has grown by a factor of 10 in recent years.

At the same time, there has been a significant increase in global air travel resulting in more bird strikes over the past 10 years. One recent bird strike forced the emergency landing of United Flight 766 at Portland International Airport. When birds and aircraft collide, it’s not only dangerous but costly. “Globally, bird strikes will cost commercial aviation $3 billion in damage in 2016. Domestically, it will cost airlines $1.2 billion,” says La Placa. The vast majority of the cost is in delays, inspections and cancellations forced by required safety checks, while only about 10 percent of that cost is associated with repair work. Precise Flight’s Pulselight system is manufactured with parts made in Oregon and assembled at the company’s facilities near the Bend airport. The company employs 33 full time staff. Qantas was the first airline to install the bird strike deflecting technology on its commercial aircraft. A few years later, Alaska Airlines followed Qantas’ lead. Although not 100 percent failsafe, the results seem to be very encouraging. Qantas conducted a 32-month study after installing the safety equipment, showing bird strike reductions of 30 percent in larger jets such as the 747 to 66 percent in smaller 737 800s. Alaska Airlines reports similar results. Three years after installing Pulselight, FAA data shows Alaska had a 32 percent reduction in bird strikes. According to La Placa, the system
is based on a simple science-based solution to a complex problem. It’s an electrical modification system which allows the pilots to pulse existing external lights on an aircraft. “Static lights create a false and dangerous illusion that an object is stationary or moving very slowly,” says La Placa. “When you add movement to lights, it accentuates the speed and directional movement of the aircraft.” The result is that more birds avoid the craft. Motorcycle companies are using similar technology to produce a pulsing headlamp. Pulselight has its roots at Precise Flight in the 1990s when the system was developed and used to reduce the chance of mid-air and ground collisions. As La Placa tells it, a Qantas pilot noticed a business jet with the pulsing lights. He spoke with the private pilot and was told it also reduced the chance of bird strikes. Word got back to Precise Flight which then began conducting tests. What was intended to be a system used to help reduce mid-air or ground collisions grew to a system that also helps prevent bird strikes. It was an unintended stroke of good fortune on which Precise Flight and its CEO La Placa are now capitalizing to maximize Pulselight’s potential in the global aviation market. With yet another unintended marketing boost from the Eastwood/ Hanks movie, the company is expecting more airline companies to utilize its technology. SW

he hit movie “Sully” starring Tom Hanks and directed by Clint Eastwood is reaping strong box office revenue–but it’s also having a major impact on a Bend aviation company that specializes in the manufacture of equipment for a global aviation market. Precise Flight CEO Doug La Placa tells the Source Weekly, “Everybody in this company has been working long hours for the past couple of weeks.” Precise Flight has developed technology that helps prevent airline bird strikes—exactly what brought down US Airways Flight 1549 on Jan. 15, 2009, in what has been termed the “Miracle on the Hudson.” The plane flew into a flock of Canada Geese while climbing after takeoff from LaGuardia Airport. Both engines immediately lost power, and about six minutes later pilot Chesley Sullenberger III successfully landed the plane on the Hudson River near watercraft that helped rescue the 155 people on board. Everyone survived. To many, it was nothing short of a miracle. La Placa says he had no knowledge of the movie until he became CEO of Precise Flight this past summer. It presented such a marketing opportunity for the company that they sent a pair of movie tickets and a letter to scores of aviation officials to call

Eagle, Eagles, Everywhere By Jim Anderson
T
47 VOLUME 20 ISSUE 40 / October 6, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY
here is nothing to relieve the boredom of the straight paved freeway coming at you like an eagle, or better yet, many, many eagles. I went on a family and business journey to Minneapolis, Minn., recently, and the return trip home was eagle after eagle. Eagles have been a love of my life from the time I arrived in Oregon. Back in the early ‘50s, I discovered them being killed by 1080 poison put out by government trappers killing coyotes. Eagles are still with me today as my wife Sue and I help to conduct a state-wide survey of Golden Eagles in conjunction with the Oregon Eagle Foundation. Like all birders who have a special bird they enjoy and see all the time in their subconscious, I too see the shape and movement of eagles automatically, while driving down the road, canoeing on a lake or hiking—the movements of eagles are always there. The recent trip awakened those senses more than once. In Minnesota, it was at the crossing of the Mississippi River that I met my first eagle. I saw the name of the river on the roadside sign, the bridge ahead, and suddenly right above it a huge, beautiful, adult female bald eagle coming toward me 20 feet above the bridge. “Wow!” I thought, “What a wonderful way to start the trip!” And that was the beginning of meeting up with eagles as I headed west. The other (this time, an adult male) bald eagle I saw while crossing the Missouri River in Montana appeared on my right and went right over the rig while I was in the middle of the bridge. Sprinkled among the eagles on other nearby waterways were osprey of all ages, inland gulls, a white pelican or two, and over the fields and a few migrating Swainson hawks headed south, which added even more to the trip. Now here’s one for the books. During the drive home, the rig I was driving developed a serious overheating problem as we approached Billings, and I had to depart the freeway. I took the first exit immediately, and lo-and-behold there was a firehall with two guys working on a pumper out in the yard. When I pulled up they immediately checked me to be sure I was OK, then they saw my engine overheating problem. While waiting for everything to cool down, I checked for external leaks and found everything tight as it should be. When all was cooled off the fireman gave me water to recharge everything, and I drove into Billings to spend the night.

There were no water puddles under the rig in the morning, so I fired it up and got onto the freeway again, heading west. About 40 miles east of Billings the temperature gauge began climbing, and by the time I arrived at the exit to the little town of Columbus I had to make a choice. I chose to go back to Billings, as Columbus didn’t look as though it would have a shop that would solve my problem. I took the exit and thought I saw an eagle—and as a result, missed the turn back onto the freeway. Having no other choice but to continue into Columbus I began looking for a shop, which quickly appeared on my left. I parked the rig and went inside, looking it over carefully. As I stepped up to the counter the receptionist, a young lady with long, blonde hair, had her back to me talking on her phone in a voice that sounded familiar. When she turned around I was shocked; she looked (and sounded) exactly like my daughter, Miriam, but without freckles. The little adventure tuned out to be even more fun when the mechanic discovered the water pump belt (which could only be observed from under the vehicle) was nothing but black pieces of spaghetti. I got to know the family as I waited for the repairs.
As I was rolling back onto the freeway I wondered if the eagle I thought I saw had anything to do with the wonderful experiences of meeting new friends, and getting my rig fixed. The many crossings of the Clark Fork in Montana were also eagle moments. The first time I crossed it— now that eagle sightings were in my subconscious—things were different. I actually slowed down, expecting an eagle to appear. As I approached the east end of the bridge, there it was, another adult baldy coming at me like an F-16, as though someone had said to it, “Hey! Get going! Jim’s almost at the west end of the bridge!” When I crossed the Clark Fork the last time I saw two more adult bald eagles, but when I crossed the Coeur d’ Alene River, no one was there to cheer me on. I stopped at the Lake Coeur d’ Alene overlook to enjoy the scenic view of that enormous inland lake: A leftover from the magnificent Bretz Floods—named for J Harlen Bretz, an American geologist best known for the persistence that led to the acceptance of the Missoula Floods carving out the Columbia Gorge. I looked for eagles, but had to be content with spotting eight osprey–
four adults and four juveniles, all preparing to get underway for wintering in Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador, Costa Rica and other points south. Crossing the Columbia into Oregon netted me one more immature baldy, but from there on to Sisters I had to be content with a golden soaring over the pillow lavas of Cow Canyon on Highway 97 north of Madras.

Fall Home Maintenance Checklist
T
1. Clean your gutters of leaves and pesky pine needles. Gutters filled with debris can cause ice dams which can be an expensive repair. Don’t forget to check the downspouts as well. Downspouts should extend away from the foundation and if yours do not, you can buy extenders inexpensively at home improvement stores. While you are up on a ladder, check the roof and see if there are any missing or loose shingles, etc. 2. Check that your furnace is working properly and change the air filters if needed.
Saturday, October 29th at 6pm
3. Clean out the chimney to prevent carbon monoxide buildup and chimney fires, then enjoy a warm cozy fire.

4. Walk around your home with a caulk gun looking for air leaks in common places such as areas where plumbing, electrical wiring, and ducting come through walls or floors, and window and door frames.
B EN D
5. Walk around the exterior of the house and check for cracks and gaps around window frames, between siding, and where plumbing, electrical, cable, and phone connections go through to the house. 6. Fertilize your lawn with a fall and winter fertilizer and don’t forget to winterize your lawnmower before you put it away for the season. These are some small and inexpensive things that most people can easily do themselves that can prevent future costly repairs and make your home score better with buyers if it is on the market.

I’m a woman who’s on the feminist dating app Bumble, where women have to make the first move. Men can only write back to women who message them. I thought this would be empowering, but even pursuing a guy in this small way feels unsexy and overly aggressive. Do I just need to get over my retrograde thinking? —Uncomfortable

The gazelle doesn’t wake up one day, decide it’s time for a change, and give the sleeping cougar a kick with its hoof: “Run for your life, you big ugly feline!” The cougar turns around, confused: “What are you doing, man? Haven’t you ever seen National Geographic?” Who does the chasing in dating also isn’t some arbitrary thing. It comes down to what evolutionary biologist Robert Trivers, in 1972, called “parental investment.” His theory—borne out in research on humans, animals, and insects—is that the sex that has the highest cost from sexual activity (the female—in almost all species) will be choosier about whom they mate with than the sex that invests less (which is almost always the male). In humans, of course, women are the ones who get pregnant and stuck with the kids, and men can, as anthropologists quip, just “inseminate and run.” So—over thousands of generations—women being choosier and men being, uh, chase-ier got wired into human psychology. We can’t just shrug off the emotional mechanisms that drive this behavior even today—even if Bumble founder Whitney Wolfe deems it “heteronormative” hooey that women damage their desirability by chasing men. A trip to the Panamanian wetlands would show her she’s wrong—that what drives which sex does the chasing and which does the choosing really is about who gets stuck with the child care. Yes, in most species, that’s the female. But check out the role reversal in the wattled jacana, a long-legged South American wading bird. Zoologist Stephen Emlen and his team found that it’s the male jacana, not the female, that sits incubating the eggs in the nest and cares for the chickies after they hatch. And right in line with Trivers’ parental investment theory, female jacanas are the ones who do the chasing, competing for the males, and some even have “harems” of up to five boy birds. And it gets worse. The Emlen team found that as male jacanas sit tending their egg brood, they’re sometimes forced to watch while their girlfriend bird gets it on right in front of them with the other boy birds in her harem. Getting back to Bumble, where the app goes wrong is in removing the filtering that comes from a man needing to lay his ego
on the line and expend effort to pursue a woman. The notion that it’s “empowering” for women to do the chasing ignores that it’s in men’s genetic interest to not turn down a mating opportunity—even with a woman they aren’t that interested in. Also, because men evolved to expect choosier women, even subtle forms of chasing like your contacting a man first may send a message that you’re not all that. If you’re really looking to put him off, why not turn the tables all the way and send a panorama shot of your erect penis? You: “Yoo-hoo? Where’d you go?!”
When Push Comes To Love
I’ve been dating a 55-year-old guy for a year. I have two teenage boys; he has no kids. He initially mentioned marriage but now doesn’t want to “rush” moving in with me and my boys. As a first step, he’s moving closer. He just signed a lease on an apartment near me. I love him, but I’m overwhelmed handling two teenagers alone. Should I tell him he needs to speed up the pace? —Questioning His Commitment If a relationship leads to an outpouring of feelings, a man tends to prefer “You’re the love of my life!” to “Screw you! You’re not my real dad!” Perhaps because you’re seeing this through “I need a break!”-colored glasses, you confuse being careful with not caring. But zoologist Amotz Zahavi has some good news for you. His research finds that when a message involves some expense to the sender, it’s more likely to be for real. For example, anyone can claim they’re committed, but as the saying goes, talk is cheap. Moving, however, is not. It’s costly. Stressful. Horrible. Especially if you are older than 21 and own more than a sleeping bag, a Nintendo, and a couple of bongs. Your boyfriend may ultimately decide that the package here isn’t for him, but pressuring him is unlikely to help. In fact, it’s likely to pressure him right out of your life. There’s a reason he doesn’t have kids, and it probably isn’t that he was too put off by the possibility of life imprisonment to kidnap a few at the mall.

ASTROLOGY
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): “It isn’t normal to
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Practitioners of the Ayurvedic medical tradition tout the healing power of regular self-massage. Creativity expert Julia Cameron recommends that you periodically go out on dates with yourself. Taoist author Mantak Chia advises you to visualize sending smiles and good wishes to your kidneys, lungs, liver, heart, and other organs. He says that these acts of kindness bolster your vigor. The coming weeks will be an especially favorable time to attend to measures like these, Scorpio. I hope you will also be imaginative as you give yourself extra gifts and compliments and praise.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): The coming weeks will be one of the best times ever for wrestling with God or tussling with Fate or grappling with karma. Why do I say that? Because you’re likely to emerge triumphant! That’s right, you lucky, plucky contender. More than I’ve seen in a long time, you have the potential to draw on the crafty power and unruly wisdom and resilient compassion you would need to be an unambiguous winner. A winner of what? You tell me. What dilemma would you most like to resolve? What test would you most like to ace? At what game would you most like to be victorious? Now is the time.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19): Are you grunting and sweating as you struggle to preserve and maintain the gains of the past? Or are you smooth and cagey as you maneuver your way towards the rewards of the future? I’m rooting for you to put the emphasis on the second option. Paradoxically, that will be the best way to accomplish the first option. It will also ensure that your motivations are primarily rooted in love and enthusiasm rather than worry and stress. And that will enable you to succeed at the second option.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Do you believe that you are mostly just a product of social conditioning and your genetic make-up? Or are you willing to entertain a different hypothesis: that you are a primal force of nature on an unpredictable journey? That you are capable of rising above your apparent limitations and expressing aspects of yourself that might have been unimaginable when you were younger? I believe the coming weeks will be a favorable time to play around with this vision. Your knack for transcendence is peaking. So are your powers to escape the past and exceed limited expectations.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): In one of your nightly dreams, Robin Hood may team up with Peter Pan to steal unused treasure from a greedy monster—and then turn the booty over to you. Or maybe you’ll meet a talking hedgehog and singing fox who will cast a spell to heal and revive one of your wounded fantasies. It’s also conceivable that you will recover a magic seed that had been lost or forgotten, and attract the help of a fairy godmother or godfather to help you ripen it. ARIES (March 21-April 19): At a recent party, a guy I hardly know questioned my authenticity. “You seem to have had an easy life,” he jabbed. “I bet you haven’t suffered enough to be a truly passionate person.” I didn’t choose to engage him, but mused to myself, “Not enough suffering? What about the time I got shot? My divorce? My five-year-long illness? The manager of my rock band getting killed in a helicopter crash?” But after that initial reaction, my thoughts turned to the adventures that have stoked my passion without causing pain, like the birth of my daughter, getting remarried to the woman I divorced, and performing my mu-
sic for excited audiences. I bring this up, Aries, because I suspect that you, too, will soon have experiences that refine and deepen your passion through pleasure rather than hardship.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): It’s the Frank and Focused Feedback Phase, Taurus—prime time to solicit insight about how you’re doing. Here are four suggestions to get you started. 1. Ask a person who loves and respects you to speak the compassionate truth about what’s most important for you to learn. 2. Consult a trustworthy advisor who can help motivate you to do the crucial thing you’ve been postponing. 3. Have an imaginary conversation with the person you were a year ago. Encourage the Old You to be honest about how the New You could summon more excellence in pursuing your essential goals. 4. Say this prayer to your favorite tree or animal or meadow: “Show me what I need to do in order to feel more joy.”
51 VOLUME 20 ISSUE 40 / October 6, 2016 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY
know what we want,” said psychologist Abraham Maslow. “It is a rare and difficult psychological achievement.” He wasn’t referring to the question of what you want for dinner or the new shoes you plan to buy. He was talking about big, long-term yearnings: what you hope to be when you grow up, the qualities you look for in your best allies, the feelings you’d love to feel in abundance every day of your life. Now here’s the good news, Libra: The next ten months should bring you the best chance ever to figure out exactly what you want the most. And it all starts now.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Many of my readers regard me as being exceptionally creative. Over the years, they have sent countless emails praising me for my original approach to problem-solving and art-making. But I suspect that I wasn’t born with a greater talent for creativity than anyone else. I’ve simply placed a high value on developing it, and have worked harder to access it than most people. With that in mind, I invite you to tap more deeply into your own mother lode of innovative, imaginative energy. The cosmic trends favor it. Your hormones are nudging you in that direction. What projects could use a jolt of primal brilliance? What areas of your life need a boost of ingenuity?
CANCER (June 21July 22): Love wants more of you. Love longs for you to give everything you have and receive everything you need. Love is conspiring to bring you beautiful truths and poignant teases, sweet dispensations and confounding mysteries, exacting blessings and riddles that will take your entire life to solve. But here are some crucial questions: Are you truly ready for such intense engagement? Are you willing to do what’s necessary to live at a higher and deeper level? Would you know how to work with such extravagant treasure and wild responsibility? The coming weeks will be prime time to explore the answers to these questions. I’m not sure what your answers will be.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Each of us contains a multiplicity of selves. You may often feel like there’s just one of you rumbling around inside your psyche, but it’s closer to the truth to say that you’re a community of various characters whose agendas sometimes overlap and sometimes conflict. For example, the needy part of you that craves love isn’t always on the same wavelength as the ambitious part of you that seeks power. That’s why it’s a good idea to periodically organize summit meetings where all of your selves can gather and negotiate. Now is one of those times: a favorable moment to foster harmony among your inner voices and to mobilize them to work together in service of common goals.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Pike’s Peak is a 14,115-foot mountain in Colorado. It’s not a simple task to trek to the top. Unless you’re welltrained, you might experience altitude sickness. Wicked thunderstorms are a regular occurrence during the summer. Snow falls year-round. But back in 1929, an adventurer named Bill Williams decided the task of hiking to the summit wasn’t tough enough. He sought a more demanding challenge. Wearing kneepads, he spent 21 days crawling along as he used his nose to push a peanut all the way up. I advise you to avoid making him your role model in the coming weeks, Virgo. Just climb the mountain. Don’t try to push a peanut up there with your nose, too.

s of Oct. 1, Oregon Liquor Control Commission rules require cannabis products to meet new, higher standards for testing, packaging and labeling. The new rules center around product testing, and are designed to ensure more accurate tests for potency and pesticides. As of the end of September, the OLCC has approved just six labs in the entire state, creating a huge bottleneck in the regulatory system. Two of those labs—EVIO Labs and Juniper Analytics—are in Bend. Faced with the prospect of losing their sizeable investments, cannabis business owners are doing what other business owners would do: Reducing overhead costs and asking state bureaucrats to fix the problem they created. Bend-based industry leader Lunchbox Alchemy, for example, has stopped production and laid off 10 people. Two weeks ago, the Oregon Cannabis Association asked the Oregon Legislature and the OLCC to allow businesses to continue to sell products under the previous standards for an additional 30 days. “This
extension is crucial for the survival of many, many businesses,” OCA representative Amy Margolis told the Legislature. Sen. Floyd Prozanski of Eugene proposed a 90-day extension. On Sept. 30, the Oregon Health Authority, which licenses existing cannabis businesses, issued temporary rules that ease some of the burden. The temporary rules don’t extend the deadline for compliance, but ease certain labeling requirements for products in stores before Oct. 1. Confusingly, the temporary rules continue to apply the new labeling requirements to all other products, but allow their sale without the label going through the OLCC’s label pre-approval process. Experts say that the snafu will not mean product shortages, though some say that it will increase prices. The OLCC says it hopes to reach a total of 20 licensed labs by the end of October.
