JAMIE MCLEOD-SKINNER WINS DEBATE The spirited and informative debate between Congressman Greg Walden and Jamie McLeod-Skinner on October 5th revealed sharp contrasts between the two candidates. Jamie spoke passionately about her travels across Oregon CD-2 during the last year and a half, and about conversations she’s had with Oregon CD-2 residents. Congressman Walden alluded to “meetings” and “calls” with his

constituents but provided few details, probably because he hasn’t held an “open” public meeting or town hall in 500 days. Jamie offered fresh ideas to address the problems affecting residents of Oregon CD-2. Congressman Walden gave his usual well-rehearsed delivery of tired Republican talking points, probably compiled by his D.C.-based PR firm. His talking points and his delivery were as exciting as day-old oatmeal. Jamie was animated, engaged and engaging throughout the debate. Congressman Walden showed some vigor when he bragged about his legislative accomplishments (incidentally some of his claims don’t pass fact-checking—particularly his statements regarding the AHCA, CHIP and rural internet services), but his temporary displays of energy were overshadowed by his overly technical style of speaking and propensity to ramble. As Jamie delivered a strong closing statement, Congressman Walden listlessly twiddled his thumbs, looking like he couldn’t wait to sneak out the back door at KTVZ.

5 VOLUME 22 ISSUE 42 / OCTOBER 18, 2018 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

In January 2015 the Republican Congress closed the U.S. Post Office sorting center in Bend. As a result all letters mailed in central Oregon now go to Portland or Eugene to be sorted and sent, including those destined across the street. Not only did postal workers lose their jobs but delays in receiving mail were inevitable and in some cases ridiculously long. I called Congressman Walden’s office to ask why this was done. The assistant I talked with said it was because the U.S. Postal Service was inefficient and costs needed to be cut. I asked what effect the fact that the Republicans required the Post Office to fully fund the pension program for 70 years made on the task to balance their budget. What other federal agencies were made to meet this requirement? I was told there (were) many. I asked him to name a few. He couldn’t. I asked him to name just one. He couldn’t. I concluded that the reason that only the post office must shoulder this burden is that the Republicans want to set it up to fail so they can have a reason to privatize it, reducing competition for UPS and FedEx. Later I asked both of our U.S. senators if there were any federal agencies besides the post office that had that pension burden and both responded that there were none. Walden’s excuse for closing our sorting center was based on a lie. The Republican agenda seems to be to help corporations, not the public. —Judy Tomera

Millennials in action

A new generation of community leaders on the rise

Locally, millennials are hungry for civic engagement

By Keely Damara

s another election approaches, reports of the elusive millennial voter and what effect they could have on the 2018 midterms have started to crop up again. Could this be the election that voters born between 1981 and 1998 turn out in record numbers, surpassing the number of baby boomers at the polls? A Pew Research poll found that as of the 2016 presidential election, the number of eligible millennial voters roughly equaled the number eligible baby boomers, the largest population of eligible voters. However, voter turnout for millennials is notoriously low, with only 51 percent of millennials reporting they voted in the last presidential election—the lowest turnout of any generation. Compared to the 69 percent of boomers who voted in the last presidential election—millennials have some votin’ to do to make a dent at the polls come Nov. 6. Still, it doesn’t mean civic engagement among the under-40 sect isn’t on the rise. Bringing back bipartisan cooperation The Millennial Action Project, launched in 2013, aims to bring young policymakers from both sides of the aisle together. The national, nonpartisan nonprofit provides millennial leaders with tools and resources to develop productive partnerships across party lines and

pass legislation. In addition to the Congressional Future Caucus, MAP launched 10 additional state Future Caucuses in 2017, making a total of 25, with a goal of 30 by the end of the year. The Oregon Future Caucus, launched at the end of September by Oregon Rep. Julie Fahey (D-West Eugene/Junction City), is the latest state to join the ranks. The caucus has zeroed in on issues members think they can come to a bipartisan solution to in the 2019 legislative session, said Fahey, including increasing the supply of housing, addressing student loan debt, criminal justice reform and early childhood education. Fahey, who’s 40, said seven state legislators attended the first meeting in January. Two lawmakers interested in joining the caucus had recently turned 41, so they agreed to bump the age cap up to 42 years old. Of the 90 legislators in the Oregon House and Senate, only eight made the age cutoff for the Future Caucus, chaired by two Democrats and two Republicans. “I think that really shows the barriers that younger people face in running for state legislative seats in Oregon,” said Fahey. “It’s a part-time position and the pay is not very high, so when you’re mid-career and/or you have a family, it’s a pretty difficult job to do—especially when you need to run a competitive campaign to get here.” In the U.S. Congress, an individual must be 25 years

I recently attended the Bend Chamber’s first Bend Young Professionals Summit. During a roundtable meet and greet with City of Bend employees, I was struck by how many young faces are working in departments ranging from Growth Management to Communications. According to the City, of the 678 City government employees, 42 percent are under the age of 40. Katy Brooks, Bend Chamber president, said Bend Young Professionals aims to develop leadership skills early, through monthly socials, professional development events and networking opportunities like the YP Summit. The network, which has a participant base of about 800 under-40 somethings strong, is more than just a resource for career-minded young adults—it’s about cultivating the next generation of community leaders and lawmakers. “We look at it as community succession planning,” said Brooks. “When you look at Bend’s leadership and how long so many folks have been doing great things for this community, you really have to take a look back and say, alright, how did they start and how do we perpetuate that?” Local young professionals are looking for a way to advance their careers and “plug in” to community issues, said Brooks, and really crave and value a place to meet other ambitious young adults in their community.

old to run for a representative seat and 30 years old for a senate seat. In Oregon, the minimum age for the senate or house is 21. Today, the oldest millennials are 37 years old; the first being able to run for Congress in 2006. Yet, according to a 2018 Congressional Research Service profile of the 115th Congress, the average age of members of Congress is “among the highest of any Congress in recent U.S. history,” at 57.8 years old for representatives and 61.8 for senators. The youngest member of Congress is 32-year-old Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY), but that torch could be passed to 28-year-old Abby Finkenauer, the Democratic candidate for Iowa’s First District, if she wins on Nov. 6. According to its website, The Millennial Action Project estimates that 200 millennials have run or are running for the 116th Congress. Twenty of the 50 Millennials who ran in the primaries won their races.

Waves of Red and Blue… and White? BEFORE YOU VOTE THIS ELECTION, THINK B E Y O N D PA R T Y L I N E S Talk to any candidate about their confidence in any given race, and chances are—even in the races that seem the surest wins—they’ll tell you they’re not holding their breath about winning. Party-line politics might play big in other parts of the state, but here in Central Oregon, a simple look at the voter rolls gives you a strong indication of how diverse our region can be. According to District Voter Counts from the Oregon Centralized Voter Registration, published Oct. 1, the 134,835 Deschutes County voters fall into three main categories:

Non-affiliated voters: Republicans: Democrats:

41,786 registered voters 41,744 registered voters 40,383 registered voters

Talk about a very close split between a red, blue… and white (aka, neutral) wave of voters. As you contemplate that split between voter affiliations, and as you begin to fill out your ballot this week, remember that nothing is taken for granted, and no race is ever “guaranteed.” Case in point: the primary race between the two Republican candidates in the House 53 race this May was decided by TWO votes. Your vote matters immensely. The following pages include our endorsements for the five measures on the ballot statewide, as well as recaps of endorsements we’ve rolled out in previous weeks, and our endorsements for two hotly contested races: Bend’s new, directly elected mayor position and the race for governor of Oregon. Our editorial board has spent countless hours interviewing candidates and debating on the merits of each one. The candidates who emerged with our endorsement did so not because of party affiliation, but because in them we saw a reflection of the values of inclusion, equity, cohesiveness, economic and social justice, and a deep care for being a community where all of its members have a place. In addition to the endorsement videos with the candidates, found at BendSource.com, we hope you use this guide as one of many resources helping you make your decision in this coming mid-term election—because nothing is guaranteed, and nothing is ever a sure win. —The Source Weekly Editorial Board

LOCAL Candidates BEND CITY COUNCIL POSITION 5

Vote Sally Russell

Vote Gena GoodmanCampbell

The advent of a directly elected mayor in Bend this year has presented some interesting conundrums. Six people are in the race—including two sitting city councilors; one, if not both of whom, will lose their place on the council by the election of someone to this post. Charles Baer is a local activist who’s added some colorful dialogue in this race. Brian Douglass is a disabilities advocate who believes strongly in a ward system—something we also support in the interest of equity and equal representation. Michael Hughes is an attorney and hemp farmer who has helped move cannabis to the legal market in our state. Joshua Langlais is a local photographer running as an advocate for the working class, and for those whose voices are underrepresented in local government. Bill Moseley is a local business owner, attorney and sitting city councilor. Sally Russell is also a current city councilor who’s held positions in marketing, event management and construction, and has served on a host of local government and community boards. We’d ideally like to see both Russell and Moseley remain on the council. We’d be happy to see Hughes added to the roster as well. Hughes presented a fresh, informed perspective and some new ideas on fire management that would be welcome in Bend, and we hope to see him engaged in another role in the future. We also believe Langlais should enter politics by joining a committee or board, to represent that portion of Bend that so often takes a back seat. Unfortunately, only one can be elected in this race—and the two sitting councilors represent the most viable candidates. On a council in which the mayor gets an equal vote to the other six councilors, we believe consenThis will be the first time sus building is the most important quality Bend’s new mayor possess, and that Russell will deliver that best among Bend will directly elect should these candidates. We admit this choice was an incredibly diffia mayor, and that mayor cult one, because in Moseley we see a process-oriented, orgafearless and outspoken leader who’s a strong public should be someone who’s nized, speaker and clearly does his homework. We will be sorry to strongly supported by see him removed from the council should another get elected. Still, Russell does not incite outright anger from city staff other leaders in our or her fellow councilors, as Moseley does. You could argue Moseley’s approach is inciting that type of anger because community, as Russell is. that he’s shaking things up in the interest of getting things done— but then again, the stronger argument is that this is not the way to build strong consensus and move forward as a city. This will be the first time Bend will directly elect a mayor, and that mayor should be someone who’s strongly supported by other leaders in our community, as Russell is. While Moseley could be a strong leader who could push forward his agenda, we question whether his approach is more opportunistic than authentic. In Russell we find more authenticity. We see her approach to governance as more carrot and less stick. During meetings, Russell sometimes seems unsure of which direction to take, but upon closer observation, we see that as a commitment to trying to understand what her constituents want. She has a strong track record of reaching out to her community and being inclusive in decision-making. We point to some of the most pressing issues in Bend as evidence of that inclusivity. While we disagree with Russell in her assertion that the City of Bend should contribute funds to dredge Mirror Pond, we respect her willingness to take a collaborative approach and to listen to stakeholders—as it is clearly a divisive issue in which constituents’ opinions vary widely. While we fundamentally agree with Moseley in his assertion that Bend Park and Recreation District could, in theory, find the funds more readily than the City of Bend, his hardline approach is not likely to elicit the consensus the issue requires. We also agree with Moseley that the Septic to Sewer conversion is a “catastrophe,” and that the costs should be spread out city-wide—though we also appreciate Russell’s pragmatic reminder that not all costs can be legally spread city-wide. It’s nice to say what voters want to hear, but there’s also a responsibility to not lead voters astray by proclaiming things that can’t actually be achieved. On that note, we believe that Moseley’s position on whether to promote Bend as a tourist destination is not entirely rooted in reality, either. While we agree with him that Bend should foster a more diverse economy and work to bring in higher-wage jobs, it seems like voter-baiting for him to say Bend should not promote itself. It might sound like a grand rallying cry, for those locals tired of sharing the brew halls with tourists, to say, “Stop promoting Bend,” but research shows that states that have cut off all tourism promotion have suffered great economic setbacks. And that’s not to mention that using Transient Room Tax funds for tourism promotion—in whatever creative interpretation we can come up with—is baked in, as state law. Russell, on the other hand, seems to be more realistic about what we can actually do about tourism promotion within the bounds of state law, and doesn’t use an opportunistic argument to discuss the issue. In the end, we believe Russell’s reputation and track record as a consensus builder make her a more viable candidate for Bend’s first directly elected mayor. Vote Sally Russell for Bend City Council Position 7 – Mayor.

Three candidates are running for Bend City Council position 5: Victor Johnson, Andrew Davis and Gena Goodman-Campbell. While we appreciate Johnson stepping into the race, we believe voters will find the most promise in Goodman-Campbell and Davis. It’s on a few key points that we direct our support toward Goodman-Campbell. Mirror Pond is a flash point in Bend politics. Goodman-Campbell believes none of the City of Bend’s funds should go toward the project. Davis supports using city funds because of the pond’s “iconic” and “historic” nature. Also, hundreds of homeowners in southeast Bend await their fate in the City’s decision about how to assist the people who will eventually be forced to connect to the city’s Southeast Interceptor sewer line, at a cost of tens of thousands per home. We appreciIt’s on a few key ate both Davis’ and Goodman-Camppoints that we direct bell’s commitment to solving the issue right away and to lowering the our support toward costs for homeowners, and their willingness to explore the option Goodman-Campbell. of spreading some of the costs citywide. Were the City to kick in funds for any project, we’d like to see them directed toward this debacle. Goodman-Campbell ran against Rep. Knute Buehler for state House in 2016—a valuable experience that, while she was ultimately unsuccessful, demonstrates her drive and commitment to public service.

The region continues to experience rapid growth—and with that growth comes more pressure to deliver quality public safety and mental and public health services, in addition to managing diverse views about controversial topics such as land use and marijuana regulation. We believe Amy Lowes offers the dynamism needed here. Lowes brings strong ideas about extending the life of Knott Landfill by implementing a food waste composting program. She also sees through the recent move by the current commission to lower taxes by a handful of dollars per home as a “smoke and mirrors” political maneuver that leaves less in the coffers for vital In a commission made public services up of three individuals, We also agree with her “anti-sprawl” approach to land use.

DESCHUTES COUNTY COMMISSION POSITION 3

Democrat James Cook is a small business owner and chair of the Redmond planning commission who has also served on Redmond’s budget and parks committees. Republican Patti Adair has been licensed as a Certified Public Accountant and is the county chair of the Deschutes County Republican Party. Cook’s actual experience and background is stronger. Both claim their experience would be vital to managing a complex budget such as the one in Deschutes County—but it’s here that our concern about Adair’s ability to match rhetoric with real-world execution begins to fall apart. When we discussed managing the budget—a budget Adair claims she will look to cut in her quest for “fiscal responsibility”—Adair would not directly answer the question of “where would you actually cut the budget,” besides making vague statements about the salaries of current county employees, and sharing confusing leaps of logic about winter road conditions and how they relate to high rates of absenteeism at local

Three candidates are running for position 6 in Bend’s City Council race: incumbent Barb Campbell, Sarah McCormick and Ronald Boozell. With Boozell in the Deschutes County Jail yet again, it leaves two serious contenders. On the topic of Mirror Pond, Campbell, whose service on the Bend City Council thus far lends her a knowledge of the reality of the city budget, is resolute that the City of Bend should not pay for dredging, suggesting that the Bend Park and Recreation District or Pacific Power pay up. McCormick, on the other hand, suggested that the City of Bend find a way to pay its share. On the issue of paying for the septic to sewer conversion, both candidates seemed to agree that at least some of the cost should be shared by residents city-wide. On the issue of homelessness in Bend, we favored Campbell’s “housing-first” approach over McCormick’s “treatment first” approach—largely because we tend to agree that not all homeless people are mentally ill or have addiction issues, and because many mental health issues can be alleviated by offering someone a place to live first. Vote Barb Campbell for Bend City Council position 6.

BEND CITY COUNCIL POSITION 6

MEASURES BANS TAXES ON GROCERIES

MEASURE 102 YES

MEASURE 103

It’s no secret that many Oregonians are struggling with being able to afford housing. While housing costs have skyrocketed in recent years, wages have not kept pace, forcing people to spend a larger share of their income on housing. In the interest of curbing homelessness and improving outcomes for our most vulnerable people, Oregonians should support any reasonable effort out there to increase our stock of affordable housing. Measure 102 is aimed at removing one potential barrier to building more affordable housing, by removing a state restriction that requires affordable housing projects funded by municipal bonds to be government-owned. Thus, this opens the door for more public-private partnerships to build affordable housing. The measure wouldn’t rubber-stamp these projects; instead, local voters would still have to approve them—something we are in favor of, since not every proposed public-private partnership is created equal nor deserves public support. Still, Measure 102 stands to get more affordable housing units built in a shorter amount of time. Vote Yes on Measure 102.

REPEALS OREGON’S SANCTUARY LAW

NO MEASURE 105

When state legislators want to raise revenue in the form of new taxes, they’re required to obtain a threefifths supermajority vote. That’s reasonable; not reasonable is extending that requirement for ALL new revenue-raising efforts, including raising state fees. Oregon has more than 2,400 fees, and to require a supermajority to raise any of them not reasonable would bog down the Legisis extending that lature needlessly. requirement for ALL Measure 104 would define raising revenue in new revenue-raising the Oregon Constitution efforts, including to include changes to tax raising state fees. exemptions, credits and deductions that result in increased revenue, as well as the creation or increase of taxes and fees. The measure is supported by the Oregon Association of Realtors, concerned about the potential elimination of the mortgage interest tax deduction and the ability to deduct property tax payments. Those deductions result in missed revenue of about $12 billion per year, according to one report. While we would shy away from removing all deductions that make owning a home more attractive, we believe this measure, and its prospect of changing the state constitution, as going too far. Vote No on Measure 104.

MEASURE 104

REQUIRES SUPERMAJORITY FOR ALL REVENUE-RAISING INITIATIVES

Oregon has no statewide sales tax, and Oregonians, by and large, have tended to be fairly steadfast in not wanting to enact one. While Measure 103 might seem like a move in favor of preventing that for good through a constitutional amendment, it could have unintended consequences. Measure 103 would prevent the enactment or increase of any state or local tax, fee or assessment on the sale of groceries, defined as “raw or processed food or beverages intended for human consumption,” excluding alcohol, tobacco and marijuana—and it would do so by amending the state constitution. That’s going too far. The Measure’s language is too vague to support for a number of reasons. The words “raw and processed food” is too vague and could mean a ban on taxing food and beverages at any point in the supply chain. That means, even if voters here in our area wanted to impose a local tax on corporations importing groceries or other food, it would be barred in the constitution. What’s more, the language of the bill does not include exemptions for e-cigarettes and vaping supplies—which means those products would not be allowed to be taxed should this measure pass. There’s too much grey area in this Measure. Vote No on Measure 103.

PROHIBITS USING PUBLIC FUNDS FOR ABORTIONS

NO MEASURE 106

Oregon doesn’t have the most admirable history when it comes to systemic racism, but now, and never, is it time to engage in even more of it. Put forth by a group of three Republican Oregon lawmakers, Measure 105 seeks to repeal the 1987 Oregon law that forbids state agencies, including law enforcement, from using state resources or people to detect or apprehend people suspected of being in violation of federal immigration law. Among the people coming out against Measure 105 is Deschutes County District Attorney John Hummel, who says that the current law already provides clear guidance to local law enforcement officials about how to handle immigration issues. Local police are already allowed to hold undocumented immigrants and to turn them over to immigration officials. Repealing the “sanctuary law,” as it’s sometimes called, “could force local police to be immigration agents and make more Oregonians afraid to report crimes or testify as witnesses. Even crime victims won’t talk to prosecutors, leaving us in the dark and our neighborhoods less safe,” Hummel said in a recent TV ad. What’s more, repealing the current law could see Oregonians falling prey to a rising tide of xenophobia and racism in our state and nation. Local law enforcement officials should not be empowered to act as federal immigration agents. They already have enough to do. Vote No on Measure 105.

Right now, Oregon is one of three states requiring almost all insurance plans to cover the cost of an abortion, including people covered by the Oregon Health Plan. We agree with opponents of this measure, who claim that Measure 106 would represent a way to chip away at abortion rights in our state. The Measure would remove abortion from the list of medical procedures covered on the Oregon Health Plan—meaning those lower-income women, those most negatively impacted by unexpected expenses, would have to Oregonians can and cover the cost out of pockshould be able to take et.

Oregon’s most vulnerable and low-income people should, like everyone else, get to decide when they have a child—and they should not be discriminated against due to the fact that they’re receiving coverage from the Oregon Health Plan. As the makeup of the U.S. Supreme Court changes and the threat of a reversal of Roe v. Wade becomes more of a reality, Oregonians can and should be able to take comfort in the fact that our state’s laws will protect women’s right to choose. This Measure sets a dangerous precedent. Vote No on Measure 106.

STATE CANDIDATES

Vote Cheri Helt

submitted

Vote Eileen Kiely In the race for the seat long held by Republican Gene Whisnant, voters have two strong candidates—both of whom we endorsed in their respective primaries. Democrat Eileen Kiely and Republican Jack Zika both believe the most pressing issue facing state legislators is funding the Public Employees Retirement System. Kiely, however, had a more realistic approach to the problem, understanding it's not only about cutting expenses, but about raising revenue to cover the as-yet-unfunded liability the state owes to its public employees. Zika, on the other hand, only offered negligible solutions about cutting costs. We also agree with Kiely's assertion that during these booming economic times, corporations can and should pay more into the state system. As a former executive, we believe Kiely has valuable experience that can contribute to solutions palatable to both government and private interests. Her more direct style will make for a stronger advocate for Central Oregon. Electing Kiely will very likely make her the only Democratic representative for Central Oregon in Salem—an influence that cannot be understated when advocating for bringing dollars and projects back home. Central Oregonians complain of being at odds with “Salem,” but having a Democrat represent us in a Democratic legislature stands to help raise Central Oregon’s status and influence. Vote Eileen Kiely for Oregon House District 53.

Our endorsement interview session for the Oregon House District 54 race included just one candidate, Cheri Helt. For that and myriad of other reasons, we are endorsing Helt in this race. Fortunately for voters, Helt is a moderate Republican who has a proven track record of dedicated service in our community. Coming from the BendLa Pine School Board, Helt will be a strong advocate for adequately funding schools. She puts forth some solid ideas about making incremental changes that would bring greater sustainability to the Public Employees Retirement System—ideas she says stem from her own experience as a local business owner who’s able to offer retirement and health care plans to her employees, while keeping costs in check. We also appreciate her approach on working toward a collaborative mental health system that brings schools, county and city governments together with other stakeholders, in the interest of providing more valuable services and not “doubling up.” Helt also spoke of a readiness to work across the aisle and to buck party lines when necessary to serve local voters—a worthwhile pursuit for a legislator serving a highly “purple” district in a majority-Democrat legislature. Helt is passionate, prepared and level-headed, and we believe she will serve Central Oregon’s disparate population fairly. Vote Cheri Helt for Oregon House District 54.

with a Democratic Legislature. Many of Buehler’s proposals would be nonstarters with lawmakers. Oregonians saw this dynamic this year with foster care reform. Buehler stood up at the start of the session grandstanding. Brown skipped the limelight and convinced lawmakers to approve $14.5 million for more caseworkers and staff. Brown also has a smarter approach to land use. She would respect Oregon’s urban growth boundaries by encouraging denser development, growing up instead of out. Buehler has his eye on farm land and sprawl. And Brown’s position on taxes reflects Oregon’s needs. Corporations are not paying their fair share, and the state cannot cut its way to success. Despite all that, recommending Brown was a close call for our editorial board. Buehler offers much to like. Contrary to the narrative Brown’s supporters are pushing, Buehler is no Trumpian Republican. He is a moderate in the mold of former Central Oregon senator and secretary of state Ben Westlund. Indeed, Buehler might be a Democrat in many red states. He is pro-choice, believes in climate change and has called out Trump on several issues, including the choice of Brett Kavanaugh. He understands the needs of Central Oregon better than Brown. When we asked Brown about differences between Central Oregon and the Willamette Valley, she said, “Generally speaking, we care about the same things.” She then fell back on talking points about statewide issues, demonstrating a shallow understanding of the region’s priorities. The fact that she wouldn’t come across

the mountains for a debate also was telling. For example, the candidates differ starkly on the future of Oregon State University’s Cascades Campus. Buehler, who has been a consistent and strong supporter of the campus, would elevate it to equal footing with the state’s other universities. Brown would keep the school a lesser branch campus. Yet Buehler tends to try to be whatever he believes an audience wants him to be. When asked during a debate about vaccines, he noted that as a doctor he believes in their value, but he’d also let anti-vaxxer parents opt their kids out for any reason. Likewise, he supports Measure 105, which would repeal Oregon’s sanctuary state law, but then in front of other audiences he articulates a vision of protecting immigrants that sounds just like the current law. If politics is in part the art of taking principled stands, Buehler is doing the splits. Central Oregonians might want to see one of their own in the governor’s mansion, but it’s not the right time, and Buehler isn’t the right candidate. Re-elect Brown to ensure that Oregon continues to make progress.

On His Own Planet

Tech N9ne’s new album gives listeners an escape from the frustrations of Earth By Allan Sculley

n early 2017, Tech N9ne had what sounded like a pretty far-out idea for his next album, to be called “Planet.” In an interview at that time with this writer, he said he wanted the album to be made up of a single piece of music inspired by Billy Joel’s epic song, “Scenes from an Italian Restaurant.” That idea fell by the wayside, but Tech N9ne still pursued a far-out idea for his newly released album, “Planet”—creating his own world, which he calls Planet Pyune, where one can escape from an earthly reality that has grown too frustrating to inhabit.

“It’s a place you can go mentally, and this place has more love than Earth and (less) hate, because hate runs it (on Earth). It has togetherness and not separation, like this Earth.” —TECH N9NE “It kind of morphed into its own thing after I left this planet spiritually and mentally,” Tech N9ne said about the concept for “Planet.” “I couldn’t pay attention to too much down here because it was so disheartening, you know what I mean, with watching the news and seeing what was going on in the world. So I had to leave, and it took a form of its own and it changed into like its own planet and like nothing else.” It wasn’t just the problems of the world that had Tech N9ne yearning to mentally travel to a world of his own creation. He had gone through a dispute with a start-up label that wanted to call itself Strainge Entertainment, a name

With the daily news bringing more frustration, Tech N9ne says he invented a “planet of love” to escape to on his latest album.

far too similar to that of his own label, Strange Music. “We won the case and they changed the name,” Tech N9ne said. “But I still had to get the song out of me.” One other big source of frustration was the indifferent response to his 2016 album, “The Storm.” Tech N9ne still struggles to understand why that album didn’t resonate with fans. “Some say that the people I chose to work with were people we grew up liking, and the youngsters don’t really care,” Tech N9ne said. “I don’t know, man. I don’t know. I don’t know.” “The Storm” is one of the few setbacks Tech N9ne has encountered since forming Strange Music with Travis O’Guin, and his 1999 debut album, “The Calm Before the Storm.” (“The Storm” was actually meant as a sequel to that first disc.) In the 19 years since, Tech N9ne has become the leading indie rap artist on the scene, with a catalog of a dozen solo albums and another eight “collab”

albums, on which he has worked with other artists (including many from the Strange Music roster) in writing and recording tracks. Meanwhile, Strange Music has grown into a highly successful label with more than a dozen acts. Tech N9ne considers Strange a label where music becomes medicine that, in his words, navigates listeners through the world of darkness. That description mirrors the purpose of “Planet’s” alternative world of Pyune. “It’s a place you can go mentally, and this place has more love than Earth and (less) hate, because hate runs it (on Earth). It has togetherness and not separation, like this Earth,” Tech N9ne said. “It’s just a place of love and understanding each other, man. That’s what Pyune is. It stands for peaceful youth unit neutralizing Earth.” Those themes of love and unity filter through many of the 19 songs on “Planet” as Tech N9ne raps his way through a varied musical soundtrack that ranges from

Unlike “The Storm,” Tech N9ne said early reaction to “Planet” has been overwhelmingly positive. “They (fans) actually dig all of the songs,” he said. “It made me feel good that the rapport from the fans is, ‘This is your best record.’ I’m like, ‘Woah, this late in the game.’ I’m talking about only four more years and I’m doing my best record.” That mention of four more years refers to Tech N9ne’s plan to gear down his own career in another four years, as he hits age 50. “It don’t mean I won’t tour anymore, just not as much, you know what I mean, and I’ll focus on building this label all the way up,” he said. For now, there’s an extensive tour to do, with a show that will include the return of Tech N9ne adapting his characters the King, the Clown and the G, and a setlist that will include plenty of fan favorite songs. And this outing comes after “Planet” was released, allowing Tech N9ne to also feature new songs in the show. In the past, he has generally debuted new songs on tour before they were released on an album. “I think this is really going to be a good show,” he said. “The fans are going to love this one.” Tech N9ne with Krizz Kaliko Sat., Oct. 20. 9pm Midtown Ballrom 51 NW Greenwood Ave., Bend $32.50

69th annual winter sports action film welcomes new partnerships and the release of 2018 U.S. tour dates

Winter is just around the corner, and Warren Miller Entertainment (WME) is ready to kick off the season with its 69th installment ski and snowboard film, Face of Winter, presented by Volkswagen. The late, great Warren Miller built his legacy capturing the essence of winter magic, and today that legacy launches the start of the ski and snowboard season every year. In the 69th feature film, celebrate the man who became known as the face of winter throughout the industry, and the places and people he influenced along the way. This year, new and veteran athletes come together to pay tribute to the man who started it all, including Jonny Moseley, Marcus Caston, Seth Wescott, Forrest Jillson, Kaylin Richardson, Dash Longe, Anna Segal, Michael “Bird” Shaffer, and featured athletes of the U.S. Cross Country Ski Team, including gold medalist, Jessie Diggins. Watch as they visit some of Warren’s favorite places from Engleberg to Chamonix, British Columbia to Alaska, Chile, Iceland, New Zealand and more. “The film is for anyone whose life (whether they realize it or not) was impacted by Warren Miller,” says WME Managing Director Andy Hawk. “We are all the face of winter—from the athletes to the audience to the locals in far-off destinations or even at our home mountain. Warren recognized this, and this year’s film celebrates that.” All fans, young and old, are invited to come together and carry on the tradition of the official kickoff to winter during the 2018 national tour. Film attendees will enjoy lift ticket and gear savings from Warren Miller resort, retail, and other brand partners. And, all moviegoers will be entered to win nightly prizes like swag and ski vacations. Local show dates and times can be found on warrenmiller.com. Sponsors of the 2018 Warren Miller Tour include: Volkswagen, Mount Gay Rum, L.L. Bean, Helly Hansen, Marmot, Switzerland Tourism, Ski Portillo, K2, Black Crows, Marker Dalbello Völkl USA, Blizzard Tecnica, and SKI Magazine.

F E AT U R I N G Mt. Baker, Washington

Athletes: Seth Wescott, Rob Kingwill Equipment: Snowboards, duct tape Mt. Baker, WA is the holy land of snowboarding, and the birthplace of the Legendary Banked Slalom, the oldest running event in snowboarding history. Professional snowboarders Rob Kingwill and Seth Wescott, make a pilgrimage to Mt. Baker to participate in the event. Kingwill says that at Mt. Baker there are “so many facets that are important to snowboarding and important to your soul”. As riders from all over the world flock to Mt. Baker for the Banked Slalom, the event is a testament to the sense of community that snowboarding fosters.

Switzerland

Athletes: Marcus Caston, Johan Jonsson Equipment: Skis, cowbells Switzerland is every skier’s dream. Between the dynamic terrain and picturesque alpine villages, the skiing is unlike anywhere else on earth, especially in Engleberg, a place known for its wild side. Marcus Caston and Swedish transplant Johan Jonsson find themselves in awe of Engleberg’s snow globe-like charm, deep powder, and challenging terrain. But as any Swiss local will tell you, the only kind of professional skier that counts is a world-cup racer, and Caston and Jonsson take a break from charging cliffs to watching the skiers in the World Cup charge the race course. Beer drinking and fondue quips aside, the Swiss know how to make the most of mountain living.

Rossland, British Columbia

Athletes: Dennis Risvoll, Kaylin Richardson, Simon Hillis Equipment: Skis Red Mountain is one of British Columbia’s best kept secrets. In this smalltown ski culture dominates, and Kaylin Richardson says that the locals live with an “adventure is worth pursuing” attitude. The Red Mountain ski patrollers truly embody this sense of adventure, and showcase their skills alongside professional skiers, Richardson, Dennis Risvoll, and Red Mountain local, 15-year-old Simon Hillis. These “kindred spirits” come together to make their turns in a welcoming and like-minded ski community.

Cordova, Alaska

Athletes: Dash Longe, Jim Ryan Equipment: Skis, helicopter Alaska’s Chugach Range is a monumental ski destination with limitless spines, untracked lines and it’s unclear if jokes about there being more helicopters than cars derive from truth or not. When Kevin and Jessica Quinn started Points North Heli Adventures they knew they were taking a risk, but 20 years of operating and 17 visits from Warren Miller Entertainment later, it’s all been worth it. For east coast transplant turned Jackson Hole local Jim Ryan, PNH is the ideal first trip to Alaska and luckily, he’s got freeskiing legend Dash Longe with him to explore the territory.

Tordrillo Mountain Range | Denali National Park, Alaska Athletes: Jess McMillan, Forrest Jillson Equipment: Skis, helicopter, bush plane

Alaska’s most treacherous and beautiful mountain ranges have long been sought after by explorers in search of adventure. A half century after Alaskan bush pilot Don Sheldon pioneered the first airplane landing on the Ruth Glacier, Jackson locals Forest Jillson and Jess McMillan embark on their own journey through Denali National Park to the Sheldon Hut and Tordrillo Mountain Lodge, this time on skis. The mountains, couloirs, and miles of pristine glaciers can be unforgiving, but it makes the adventure all the more rewarding. Just like the pioneers who came before them, Jillson and McMillan savor the moment, acknowledging the undeniable truth that human spirit needs exploration.

Chamonix, France

Athletes: Michael “Bird” Shaffer, Camille Jaccoux, Bruno Compagnet Equipment: Skis, mountaineering gear, speedwing Chamonix local Camille Jaccoux, modern nomad Bruno Compagnet, and free-spirited adventurer Michael “Bird” Shaffer might seem like an unlikely trio, but they all share a passion for skiing and extreme living, and there is no place more fitting for the word extreme than Chamonix. Together they push their limits at heights topping nearly 13,000 feet on some of the most dangerous faces on the Mont Blanc massif, a task that requires focus, precision, and trust in each other. Unlike anywhere else in the world, Chamonix is a place for pushing boundaries, finding freedom, and living life at the maximum.

Iceland

Athletes: Amie Engerbretson, Anna Segal, Jonny Moseley Equipment: Skis, helicopter, horses Summer in Iceland is a unique experience: the sun never seems to set, the weather is temperate, and skiing comes with a side of ocean views. Amie Engerbretson, Anna Segal and Jonny Moseley explore rugged Icelandic mountains where the snow feels like butter under the skis. The crew is hosted by Iceland local Joküll Bergmann—which translates to “Glacier Mountain man”—whose heli-skiing operation, Arctic Heli-Skiing, is based on a family farm dating back to the year 800. Aside from skiing, Engerbretson, Segal and Moseley tour the landscape on horseback and soak in local hot springs. And after it all, all three agree the best part of being in the land of the mid-night sun is that skiing is possible all-day long.

Chile

Athletes: Francesca Pavillard-Cain, Brennan Metzler Equipment: Skis, helicopter In a world that is contently changing, there is one spot nestled in the Chilean Andes that never seems to change. Famous as the place that skiers and snowboarders go to chase winter, Portillo is a skier’s summer paradise. Francesca Pavillard-Cain and Brennan Metzler team up to tackle some of the Southern Hemisphere’s best terrain alongside fellow PSIA instructors at Ski Portillo. An ode to Warren’s beginnings as a ski instructor, Pavillard-Cain and Metzler reflect on the significance of passing the knowledge of skiing and snowboarding on to new generations to enjoy the lifelong magic of snow-riding in the mountains. And it never hurts when there is a heli-skiing payoff.

New Zealand

Athletes: Jessie Diggins, Sophie Caldwell, Ida Sargent, Simi Hamilton, Kevin Bolger, Paddy Caldwell Equipment: Nordic Skis After a record-breaking 2018 Winter Olympic team gold medal, the United States Cross-Country team hasn’t done much resting. Instead, athletes like Jessie Diggins, Sophie Caldwell, Simi Hamilton and other teammates have continued training hard to maintain a caliber of competition that will land them on more podiums. New Zealand offers the ideal landscape for these Nordic skiers to train rigorously, while also recovering before competing non-stop in the winter ahead.

Blue River, British Columbia

Athletes: Seth Westcott, Rob Kingwill Equipment: Snowboards, helicopter Dreams of mastering the “art of the glide” and wide-open snow fields come to fruition with Mike Wiegele’s heli-skiing operation. Wiegele has accomplished the goal of every ski bum and has found a way to make a living doing what he loves: skiing. Professional snowboarders, Seth Wescott and Rob Kingwill visit Wiegele’s for some first-rate mountain access in one of British Columbia’s best snowbelts. The Wiegele experience is so unparalleled that it has Kingwill saying, “Mortgage your house, or do whatever it takes, to come back to Wiegele world.”

KAYLIN RICHARDSON

Current favorite piece/pieces of gear? Why? My AVALON7 Mesh Faceshield. It keeps my face happy and warm on the coldest days, doesn’t fog my goggles, and has amazing art printed on it!

Current favorite piece/pieces of gear? Comfort, quality, and confidence are what I get from my gear! My Helly Hansen Maroi Shell Jacket is breathable and burly- adapting to every weather condition AND rugged enough to power through anything! And do not miss out on the HH Lifa Merino Baselayer- it is the coziest, most capable item of clothing I wear. When it comes to ski touring, I don’t have to sacrifice downhill performance for uphill ease; carbon technology and cutting-edge design give me the best of all worlds. The combination of my Volkl Mantra V-Werks Skis, Dalbello Lupo Factory Boots, and Kingpin Bindings make for a pleasantly efficient ascent, followed by a stable, powerful, aka super fun descent! And for safety, my Arva Reactor Airbag Pack gives a little peace of mind in addition to an intuitive backpack for every adventure in the backcountry.

What’s your “Back in my day, we…”? Just went outside to play. Who has inspired your skiing the most? Craig Kelly Best recovery exercises? Yoga and active stretching but most importantly sleep. Ideal down day? Flyfishing on a nice remote river then coming home to make some art. Spiciest/most intimidating line you’ve skied or ridden this year? Mt Baker Banked Slalom in icy conditions with a partially torn MCL. Goals in skiing/riding this next year? To go further into my backyard in Jackson Hole and to make it back to Alaska. How did Warren Miller the man influence your skiing/riding career? I always admired Warren’s sense of humor, and he taught me to not take things so seriously. It is just snowboarding after all. He also inspired me as a filmmaker (which I went to school for). His passion for sliding on snow sparked a fire that created this crazy industry we are in and set the stage for making films that could inspire more people to get into the mountains and play, which is something that I continue to try to do. He leaves a beautiful legacy behind him. Thanks Warren!

Favorite mountain range? The Wasatch Range is home. Wherever I travel it is always a comfort to see my mountains when I drive up Parley’s Canyon to my house. They provide so much and because they are so accessible, I think we locals often forget how incredible they really are. The jagged peaks of Seattle are also dear to my heart- the Olympics to the West and the Cascades to the East. And lastly, the mountains of the Lofoten Islands are my special place, I don’t get there often, but they fill my dreams. Ideal down day? A day curled up with a great book. Then a delicious meal with hilarious friends, followed by an after-dinner stroll and boisterous board game battle. How did Warren Miller the man influence your skiing/riding career? Warren Miller ignited our imagination. He opened up a world that, before him, was for a very small company of adventurers, eccentrics, and perhaps,

AMIE ENGERBRETSON

MICHAEL “BIRD” SHAFFER

Current favorite piece/pieces of gear? Why? I would have to say my BCA float pack. Depending on the day I use either the 8L, the 17L Speed or the 22L. It is a standard part of my backcountry kit, when I am wearing a beacon, I am wearing a float pack. I don’t pick and choose which days to wear it, it is one more piece of safety equipment that could help me if I ever need it. I like to have all the tools available in my back pocket, even as a just in case, so for me, an airbag is a must.

Current favorite piece/pieces of gear? Why? Black Crows Corvus Free Bird Ski- It’s my one ski quiver for the backcountry designed for its versatility and its super pink so I am more approachable. Norrona - some of the best technical and most ‘stylie’ outerwear out there. Designed for any mountain adventure and more importantly with the environment in mind, using recycled materials which makes me feel good about the clothes I choose to wear out there!

Favorite on-mountain fuel/snack? Snickers! Pro-tip. Keep the snickers bar inside your long-jons for the hike up or for a run or two and then eat once you body heat has warmed it up a bit. No one likes a cold snickers...

Goals in skiing/riding this next year? Enjoy the journey, realizing all the moments matter and we are apart of it. Oh, and skiing big mountains using the speed wing to exit where close out lines exist.

How did Warren Miller the man influence your skiing/riding career? Warren Miller created a lifestyle around skiing that revolved around sharing rather than competing. For me, I have always loved to ski but have not been very competitive. The joy of creating an entertaining piece of art in the form of a ski film is the reason that I am a professional skier. I love skiing and exploring new places but I also love the chance to share that experience with people from all over the world and hopefully inspire them to go out and ski/explore as well. I will always be thankful to Warren Miller for being the first to create, share and live such an amazing lifestyle, paving the way for people like me to do the same.

Best moment filming with WME this year? Following in the footsteps of Warren Miller and recreating some of the scenes he shot back in the day in Chamonix. Skiing powder on a perfect day at Grand Montet with Camille, not to mention the electro party that evening. How did Warren Miller the man influence your skiing/riding career? Since I was a little kid, I think Warren had the biggest influence on our small town of skiers. That he could travel around and make a life out of skiing, sharing and inspiring people. This set an imprint in my brain to do the same and here I am fortunate to be doing a little inspiring myself.

‘Oliver!’ is at The Door

Sunriver Stars opens “Oliver!” the musical, Friday By Elizabeth Warnimont

“They looked at me and said, ‘Victoria, just do it!’” —VICTORIA KRISTY Dickens was an advocate for fair treatment of the poor and disenfranchised. At age 12, in 1824 England, his family was imprisoned after his father became unable to pay his debts. As an adult, Dickens worked as a clerk in legal courts, gaining an understanding of class bias in the legal system. Those experiences formed much of the inspiration for his best-known stories. In the musical, based on Dickens’ Oliver Twist, the young orphan (Talon Confer of La Pine as Oliver) escapes mistreatment and hunger and takes up with the iconic, charismatic

street thief, Jack, the “Artful Dodger” (played by Saydi Miller), sharing and surviving many suspenseful misadventures before settling into a stable home. Kristy has been a lover and creator of dramatic theater since she was a child, she says, starting in fourth grade when she would set out chairs on her front lawn and sell tickets to her variety show. Kristy performed with a childrens theater group in college and began directing childrens theater shortly thereafter. “Childrens theater was the majority of my career,” she says. It was after she moved to Sunriver several years ago that Kristy decided to open her own community theater. “It was 2011 when I had artist friends come

down from the Bellevue/Tacoma area. We were doing some workshops and I said, 'What I really want to do is start my own community theater.' They looked at me and said, ‘Victoria, just do it!’” Kristy contacted the American Association of Community Theatre and they sent her all the information she needed. She chose a name that reflected Sunriver’s reputation for “a vast sky of stars at night,” she says, Her son-in-law created a logo and Kristy placed an ad in the local paper. “Our first show was in 2012. It involved children because that’s what I was familiar with, but now I had my new age group, so we joined together.” The multi-generational group performed

The Bremen Town Musicians. “It wasn’t too terrific,” she laughs. “Our heart was in the right place. But we had no lights, no sound, and any props or costumes we had were just things we found in our closets.” Stars was able to use SHARC for performances before the venue formally opened, but once SHARC started booking weddings and other large events, they had to start paying rent. They used funds previously set aside for workshops and childrens programs, but they began searching for a new home. “One day we met the pastors at the church in the Sunriver business park. They had just bought a building and they heard we were looking for a space. The pastors at The Door welcomed us with open arms,” Kristy says. The Stars have been performing there ever since. “Oliver!” is suitable for all ages, with parental discretion. “The show has violence,” Kristy explains. “Nancy (Ginger Emrick) gets killed. Sikes (Robert Perrine) gets shot by police. All those kids working in the poor house, only being given gruel, running around the streets stealing so they can have some food— those things were happening in Dickens’ lifetime.” Kristy hopes the special introduction by Dickens (portrayed by Frank Brocker) will help place those elements of the story in context.

entral Oregon hosts some exceptional events over the winter months, and community theaters can provide a memorable element of entertainment for all ages. Case in point: “Oliver!” the classic Charles Dickens musical, opens Friday and continues through next Saturday at The Door in Sunriver. Sunriver Stars founder and artistic director Victoria Kristy felt audiences would enjoy learning a little about the story’s history, so she decided to write in the role of the playwright, Charles Dickens. “The scene opens with the overture. Then the vendors come out and mingle, then they all freeze and Dickens walks out in his Victorian attire and tells the audience about his life in Victorian England, and why he wrote the story to tell about child labor,” she explains.

Small pieces, like these from Stuart Breidenstein of Stuart’s of Bend, make up the $20 sale.

Redmond Tasting Room Trifecta

By Lisa Sipe

One stop: brewery, cidery, distillery + barbecue

idden in an industrial complex off Highway 97 in Redmond is a cluster of brand-new tasting rooms. Porter Brewing Co. is the only all-cask brewery in Central Oregon; Dry Fields Cider is the only cidery in Redmond; and Gompers Distillery will be Redmond’s first distillery. The Bad Boys Barbecue food truck gives visitors a way to soak up all that liquid libation.

Porter Brewing Co. Before opening Porter Brewing Co., owner and head brewer, Deven Roberts, home brewed for 10 years. He became a fan of cask ale, popular in the United Kingdom. Since his family has British roots, an all-cask brewery seemed right. Cask ale is unfiltered and unpasteurized beer conditioned and served from the cask without additional nitrogen or carbon dioxide. Wife Avara Roberts said, “Cask ale is smoother with less carbonation—you won’t feel as full. Nitro was created to simulate cask ale.” You can’t serve cask beer using standard draft beer towers, since the ale is pumped from the cask, so most places don’t have the equipment to serve them. As such, Porter’s ales are only available in the tap room. It’s also served at a slightly lower temperature because, as Avara Roberts says, “If it’s served too cold you lose some of the flavor.” Dry Fields Cider While doing humanitarian aid in South Africa, Redmond native Stephen Fields fell in love with Savanna Dry cider. Upon returning home, “dry cider was unheard of,” said Fields. “I tried to find a dry cider but couldn’t.” He tried making it and discovered he loved science, fermentation and yeast. Dry Fields Cider is made with real fruit and no added sugar. The apples come from Hood River, with other fruit from Salem. The tasting room has five house ciders and 11 guest ciders on tap. When I visited they had an experimental banana cider on tap—a first for me—and guess what? It wasn’t weird. Dry Fields Cider is only

available in the tasting room, but you can get 16-ounce cans to go. Gompers Distillery Jackpine Court will one day house three tasting rooms, but the third, Gompers Distillery, isn’t open just yet. With support from a crowdfunding campaign, owners Michael and Jessica Hart hope to open the Prohibition-themed space by the end of the year. In true Prohibition style, the space will have a secret room, where its Indiegogo campaign backers will get to try spirit tastings and mini cocktails in privacy. Other perks for backers include first access to the founder’s club, barrel club and the opportunity to be a distiller for a day. Jessica Hart said, “The distillery is named after my Oma and Opa, both Holocaust survivors from Holland. They are the most welcoming, fun, outgoing people, and that’s what we want to embody here.” Gompers Gin, with notes of lavender and golden pear, is already available in liquor stores and restaurants throughout Oregon.

Bad Boys Barbecue Hungry visitors to Jackpine Court can fill up at the Bad Boys Barbecue food truck, located outside. “Bad to the bone” is how owners Cindy and Gary Dale describe the barbecue. When I visited they had beef brisket, pulled pork, pulled chicken and tri-tip served with curly fries, broccoli salad, cole slaw and macaroni salad as sides. With eight different barbecue sauces, you choose how much sweet and heat to add. The favorite part of my meal was the broccoli salad. The broccoli and sunflower seeds were crunchy, and the dressing and raisins added the perfect amount of sweet. The complex of tasting rooms is sure to become a hot Redmond destination. When the weather is nice, visitors can bring a pint to the grassy outdoor area and play games. Jackpine Court

Tapping a pumpkin: The next grand autumn tradition.

t is now well into the fall season, and everyone who enjoys a good ale knows that the cooler weather means only one thing: Fresh hop ales, barrel-aged stouts, tart fruit bombs, pumpkin beers! Six years and several generations’ worth of trendy beer fads ago, pumpkin-flavored beers were one of the main catalysts that drove “normal” drinkers over to the craft side of things every fall. Spearheaded by beers including Avery’s Rumpkin, Dogfish Head’s Punkin Ale, and New York-based Southern Tier’s Pumking (which is really more Pumpkin Spice Latte than actual pumpkin, much to the chagrin of certain drinkers), the style became a huge hit around 2013 or so, even experiencing a “holiday creep” of its own as some brands began to go on sale in August. (On the local side, 10 Barrel’s Jamaican Me Pumpkin—an imperial ale aged in rum barrels—is absolutely worth tracking down a bottle of.) This mania for good gourds has simmered down in recent years, but it still has a loyal ally in Seattle’s Elysian Brewing. For the past 14 years, the large (and now InBev-owned) outfit has held the Great Pumpkin Beer Festival, most recently at the Seattle Center grounds that surround the Space Needle. It is by far the largest event of its kind, with 2018’s show featuring 80 different pumpkin ales (20 from Elysian alone), rewards for creative costumes and a massive pumpkin—we’re talking several hundred pounds—that’s hollowed out,

filled with pumpkin beer, sealed, then tapped onsite. Talk about enthusiasm. This year’s GPBF has sadly passed, but there’s no need to feel to disappointed, because Elysian is taking the show on the road. This Thursday, the Platypus Pub is hosting the brewery’s Great Pumpkin Roadshow, making a stop in Bend as it travels around Oregon and southwestern Washington. There will be a (somewhat smaller) pumpkin getting tapped there, along with eight different Elysian pumpkin ales in the more traditional metal kegs. These beers, for someone who only recalls the sickly-sweetness of Pumking, might be a breath of fresh air. The brewers at Elysian prefer to let actual pumpkin flavor take precedent over cinnamon and other spices, meaning that their flagship Night Owl pumpkin ale (brewed with 150 pounds of pumpkin in every batch) offers a measured amount of spice that doesn’t get in the way of the actual pumpkin flavor. Try it out on tap at the Platypus, along with several other pumpkin ales (including a barleywine and a milkshake IPA) that—if nothing else—are certainly going to taste suitable for the season.

Speaking to the Artist’s Heart

Three films from BendFilm that speak to the artist’s experience, and how to get them post-festival By Teafly Peterson

• Window Shades and Blinds • Home Staging and Design

The filmmaker behind “The Worlds of Ursula K. Le Guin” spent 10 years following the prophetic author to make the film.

t may seem strange to tell you about films that played last weekend at BendFilm, but these three films speak deeply to the artist’s experience of commerce, inspiration and the changing role artists play in the world. Plus, you can still access them.

“We will need writers who can remember freedom. Poets. Visionaries. Realists of a larger reality.” —URSULA K. LE GUIN “The Worlds of Ursula K. Le Guin,” a documentary from first-time filmmaker Arwen Curry, who spent 10 years working on the film, showcases the history and amazing work of the beloved Oregon writer who passed this year. One of the most interesting aspects of Le Guin’s work, seen in the film, was her willingness as an artist to evolve and to allow her work to evolve with her. As her perspective changed, so did her work. She talks about how important that is for artists to do, something we’re allowed to do—to evolve and change over time.

The film ends with one of Le Guin’s most prophetic talks, the one she gave at the National Book Awards. She says, “We will need writers who can remember freedom. Poets. Visionaries. Realists of a larger reality. Right now, we need writers who know the difference between a market commodity and the practice of an art.” It’s a stunning testament to a woman who fought to be taken seriously as an author, regardless of the genre, regardless of her gender— and one you can find airing on the next season of American Masters, reported to be airing next year. The second film I want you to look for in the world is “Ingrid,” about an entirely different female artist. This first feature for the artist Morissa Maltz is a portrait of an artist who has left society to be on her own. Ingrid, a German woman in her 70s residing in the rural woods of Oklahoma, is a refugee from the fashion industry who now fills her days caring for her animals, sculpting and dragging massive stones from the river up a hill, to use to make walls for her ever-expanding home. Maltz, who has previously created objects of art for Urban Outfitters, wanted to make a film about “someone who was making things to just make them. Not for any sort of profit, but just to make things.” “Ingrid

“was the result of that exploration. It’s a beautiful portrait, shot over three years, that reveals the choices artists sometimes make to satisfy their own soul, only to understand that it may never be satisfied in the end. “Mr. Fish: Cartooning from the Deep End” is probably the most important film on the subject of censorship and what that truly looks like in the 21st century. Following the editorial comic, Mr. Fish, from receiving death threats over his depiction of President Obama to finally feeling relevant again after the 2016 election, this film shows what the life of an artist can really look like, even after achieving a certain level of success. It also speaks to the importance of artists’ satire and political commentary as a vital part of our democratic process. And fortunately for you, you can still access these films, while at the same time supporting the pursuit of local talent and creativity. If you become a member of BendFilm, you can have access to the entire collection of films they’ve shown at the festival for the last 15 years. BendFilm

ALL ABOUT NINA: From Eva Vives, the filmmaker who bought us the absolutely heart-wrenching “Raising Victor Vargas,” comes an authentic slice of life about how to be a creative woman in modern culture. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX BAD TIMES AT THE EL ROYALE: With a cast featuring Jeff Bridges, Jon Hamm, Dakota Johnson and Chris Hemsworth and a script from the mind behind “Cabin in the Woods,” this neonoir bloodbath is for those who miss the halcyon days of “Pulp Fiction.” Even with a big letdown of an ending, “El Royale” is still a sinful amount of fun. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX COLETTE: The always welcome Keira Knightley plays Sidonie-Gabrielle Colette, a country girl who heads into Paris and marries a well-known writer. When he begins passing her work off as his own, Colette proves that the will of an artist can be unbreakable. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX CRAZY RICH ASIANS: The combination of director Jon M. Chu and star Constance Wu means this light romantic comedy will be a must-see for fans of laughter and good feelings. Seriously, Constance Wu is a national treasure. See everything she does. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House EIGHTH GRADE: The feature from Bo Burnham is an honest and lovely look at the alienation of youth that will easily rank among the top 10 of the year. Movies like this don’t come around often, but when they do, it’s a beautiful sight to behold. Tin Pan Theater. FIRST MAN: Ryan Gosling and Claire Foy star in

this historical drama focused on Neil Armstrong and his part in the space race. While “First Man” has a few breathtaking space sequences, the film doesn’t soar when focused on the cliched domestic drama. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House, Redmond Cinema

GOOSEBUMPS 2: HAUNTED HALLOWEEN: The Goosebumps books are a huge staple

for horror kids who haven’t discovered Stephen King yet, and this movie can function in the same way. The perfect cauldron of evil for kids who like to be scared…but not too much. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House, Redmond Cinema

crate the grounds. Surprisingly creepy, “The Nun” is another solid entry in the remarkably entertaining franchise. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

PICK OF THE LITTER: Oh gosh, look at the puppies. Wait, this whole movie is about puppies? PUPPIES THAT WILL ONE DAY LEAD THE BLIND?!?!?! I can’t even right now. Tin Pan Theater A SIMPLE FAVOR: There’s nothing simple about this mystery/dramedy from the creator of “Bridesmaids” and “Freaks and Geeks.” The final 30 minutes have more twists than a ’60s dance floor and the performances from Anna Kendrick and Blake Lively are basically flawless. A good old-fashioned time. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX SMALLFOOT: With a voice cast featuring Channing Tatum, James Corden, Common, Danny DeVito and…LeBron James, “Smallfoot” is a surprisingly touching animated adventure about acceptance and xenophobia. Surprisingly deep themes for animation. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX A STAR IS BORN: Lady Gaga and Bradley

Cooper team up to tell one of Hollywood’s oldest stories and somehow manage to keep it feeling fresh and heartrending. Gaga and Cooper are both so powerful that even when the story threatens predictability, the film never becomes anything less than mesmerizing. This will win all kinds of awards. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House, Redmond Cinemas

VENOM: Tom Hardy is one of the best actors the studios have ever talked into starring in a comic book movie—if only the film was truly worthy of his talent. There are moments of pure entertainment scattered throughout what is ultimately one of the dumbest superhero movies ever made. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House, Redmond Cinemas

THE WIFE: Glenn Close and Jonathan Pryce as a well-respected couple celebrating 40 years of marriage. Here is my money, where do I sit, please? Tin Pan Theater, Sisters Movie House

STREAMING THIS WEEK

THE HOUSE WITH A CLOCK IN ITS WALLS: Horror filmmaker Eli Roth takes on the young adult genre with a spooky haunted house story featuring Jack Black and Cate Blanchett. It’s basically the director of “Hostel” making an homage to the ’80s Amblin Entertainment movies like “ET” and “Poltergeist.” Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

NIGHT SCHOOL: Either you like Kevin Hart and Tiffany Haddish or you don’t, and this fitfully funny comedy won’t change your mind either way. Hart going to night school is a concept that could have born much headier fruit than this barely passable effort. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

THE NUN: A part of the “Conjuring” Cinematic Universe,” this tells the story of a haunted Romanian nunnery and the heroes that try to re-conse-

THE HAUNTING OF HILL HOUSE:

I’ve had three nightmares about this show after each of the three episodes I’ve seen. It includes some of the most haunting images and some of the most disturbing sound design I’ve ever seen. For a fan of horror (especially deep in the middle of October), this show is a spooky, gooey, bursting and explosive gift for us all. Now streaming on Netflix.

Pulpiest Fiction The El Royale is worth checking into, mostly By Jared Rasic

Kimberley French

don’t blame “Bad Times at the El Royale” for my inflated and impossible expectations, but I’m tempted to try anyway. I’m what some may call a mega-fan of writer-director Drew Goddard, the man responsible for some of my favorite episodes of “Lost,” “Buffy” and “Alias,” as well as the deeply misunderstood “Cabin in the Woods.” When I think about the kind of creative writing I’d like to achieve in my life, Goddard and his mentor Joss Whedon are prime examples of what I’m shooting for. For months I’ve been hyped about “Bad Times at the El Royale,” with the trailers looking like a sprawling and ramshackle neo-noir penny dreadful styled like “Pulp Fiction” or “Memento.”

41 VOLUME 22 ISSUE 42 / OCTOBER 18, 2018 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

For two hours of its 141-minute run time, “El Royale” offers just that: a narratively experimental crime comedy filled with characters keeping secrets, non-chronological storytelling and brief but bloody explosions of violence. For two hours of its 141-minute run time, “El Royale” offers just that: a narratively experimental crime comedy filled with characters keeping secrets, non-chronological storytelling and brief but bloody explosions of violence. The smile on my face just kept getting wider as the story became an unpredictable symphony of murder and lies with bullets flying like one-liners and a wit so dry I was feeling downright parched. The story is perfect for neo-noir: It’s 1969 and four strangers (played by Jon Hamm, Jeff Bridges, Dakota Johnson and Cynthia Erivo) show up at the El Royale hotel on the border of California and Nevada. Each one of them is sketchy and hiding a dark secret, but none quite as twisted as the hidden motivations of the creepy bellboy and the mysterious hotel itself. The film is jam-packed with commentary on the dying counter-culture movement and the racist and sexist treatment of African Americans, while also

Look at that little baby goose! He’s gonna be an astronaut!

being a twist-filled thrill ride brimming with crackling dialogue and flawless performances. The problem comes with the expectations. Goddard deconstructed and reinvented the horror genre with “Cabin in the Woods,” and it seems like that’s what he’s doing with “El Royale” for most of its running time. Then comes the biggest surprise of all: an ending that feels downright conventional in comparison to what came before. The entire film feels like its building toward something truly mind-blowing, but instead it’s a predictable and somewhat safe conclusion that feels like an un-adventurous de-escalation. For a solid two hours I thought I was watching the next “Pulp Fiction,” but by the conclusion I realized I was watching one of those mid-’90s “Pulp Fiction” knock-offs like “Eight Heads in a Duffel Bag” or

“Things to Do in Denver When You’re Dead.” I’m not sure this was any fault of Goddard’s, as opposed to my unattainable hype for what he had in store for me. Either way, I left the theater deflated, realizing “El Royale” didn’t reinvent the genre or deconstruct film noir in any lasting way. Instead, it was just content to be a lark: a disposable bit of entertainment from an auteur capable of so much more.
