DOING A GOOD JOB I read the Source pretty regularly and always enjoy it thoroughly, especially readers’ letters and Amy Alkon’s column. I have also located service providers and places to eat that I would likely not otherwise have found by reading the ads, many of which seem to appear nowhere else. Keep up the good work!
I am always amazed by all the people who feel landlords are greedy. I own homes in Central Oregon and for nearly ten years I have lost money. That recession nearly bankrupted me. What renters do not seem to understand is it is expensive to own a home. Yes, I have raised rent recently like many owners. But, what many of you do not realize is that it will take many more years before I break even on my investments. —Not yet homeless either but close

Thank you, well said. Anyone still remember: E pluribus unum or divided we shall fall? Political parties fail us.

Tell them Bend Parks and Rec needs to be held accountable to taxpayers for not delivering what was promised and provide the community with a clear explanation for how they plan to remedy the issues surrounding the Bend Whitewater Park. There are a number of other whitewater parks built in similar types of environments around the world, many of which could’ve easily been used as a model for this park. In addition, a number of experienced designers bid on this project. Why did BPR choose an inexperienced contractor to complete this job and why are they continuing to use the same contractor to make adjustments? In additions, other parks such as the one in Boise and in Reno were completed for less than half the cost of the Bend Park. Why have we spent so much money on a park that is unsafe and not user friendly?
been back fewer than a handful of times, and it has changed significantly. My dad left town over 10 years ago, so I don’t have much of a reason to visit as he was my anchor there. He had a saying that Bend is “poverty with a view.” Apparently there are many bankrupt families there and many more on the verge if they lose their job, which is ironic since high paying jobs are rare. These same people rent their house, their car, and their furniture, so they don’t own anything. It’s all a facade and is a far cry from the town I experienced. I’m not one for nostalgia because I fully embrace progress, however, people being on the verge of financial ruin shouldn’t be the case. Maybe that is a symptom of what is going on in the rest of the country, but Bend has become my worst fear: fake.
HOMELESS IN BEND I’m an 18-year resident of Bend who cannot find a place to live. I’m a single 50-year-old female graduate student at OSU and work part-time at Cascade Youth and Family’s the LOFT, a homeless shelter for teens. Up until September I worked full time there but I can’t work full time and student teach and take classes this year. The irony is not lost on me. Now I’m homeless too. I’ve been staying in a 40-year-old RV, as well as staying with friends. The RV doesn’t have plumbing or dependable electricity. The thing is, I have money, just not enough to pay $1,200 for a studio or a one bedroom. I can pay maybe $850, at the most. But my biggest disqualifier is that I have pets. I got my pets when I owned a house here and am not willing to just give them away because I’m in school, and I am trying to rent a place. I have

two small dogs and an 18-year-old cat that just sleeps on my bed 24/7. And this is the sin that prevents me from having housing. I’ve lived in two rentals since having to sell my house and left each of them in excellent shape just like I found them. I have great rental, personal, and professional references. Yet, I’m still homeless. I would gladly move away to find housing except that I’m in my last year of my Masters of Arts in Teaching program at OSU and student teaching all of this year. At a time when I should be totally focused on my teaching practice, I’m instead trying to figure out how to keep me and my pets warm each night. I love Bend and have chosen to make it my home for 18 years, but now it has become a hard place to be. And I know there are many people that are in my position or worse. What kind of town can’t provide housing to middle class single professionals? How can we help provide housing to all and stop us from morphing into the Aspen of Oregon where only the rich can live? People are continuing to talk about the housing crisis but I’ve see very few people willing to do something about it personally, like keeping their rent at a reasonable price and recognizing there are responsible pet owners who make good tenants. Aren’t we known for being a pet friendly town? What kind of town do we want for our future? —Pam Pricef

ortland has been in the news a lot lately for its struggles with affordable housing. And while there’s no magic trick to finding a sufficient quantity of housing middle and low-income folks can afford, the city has taken steps recently to address its housing shortage that we would be wise to adopt locally.

First, the city recognized it has a problem. Portland Mayor Charlie Hales declared a State of Emergency for housing and homeless in September. And it came with some teeth. The declaration allows Portland City Council to wave zoning requirements, turn city-owned buildings into homeless shelters, work with the Governor’s office to obtain waivers of state building codes to create more shelters, and more.

For those who may say, Bend’s not Portland, well, that’s true. For one, Bend’s rental market is much tighter than Portland’s. While Portland’s three percent vacancy rate makes it the third tightest urban market in the country, Bend comes in at around half a percent. A 2014 survey by the Central Oregon Rental Owners Association found just a single—that’s right, one—apartment vacancy. The other 16 were single family homes. But that just means that the need for action is that much greater. Bend Affordable Housing Manager Jim Long has been calling the lack of housing (affordable and otherwise) in Bend a “crisis” for years, but City Council has not yet made any such formal declaration. Acknowledging the weight of the problem would be a wake-up call to those who argue we must simply wait for the market to sort itself out, or that if we simply provide enough incentives for developers, everything will fall into place. That kind of thinking isn’t rooted in reality. There will always be a demand for

higher-end single family homes in Bend because well-to-do professionals and retires continue to find Central Oregon a desirable place to relocate. And it’s hard to blame developers for catering to a well-heeled clientele. But the demand for lower-cost housing, for small units suitable for singles and childless couples, is undeniable. Council has taken some longer-term steps toward addressing the housing shortage, but these efforts fall short of addressing the immediate emergency. At last week’s City Council meeting, Councilor Barb Campbell took a step in the right direction by proposing that the City adopt an ordinance requiring landlords to give at least 90 days notice before a rent increase or eviction, something Portland also recently adopted. City Council should make this ordinance a priority. While it won’t get people into homes, it can help prevent some of the many rent-burdened Bendites from falling through the cracks as they attempt to absorb a hefty increase or find a new place to live. And finally, Bend should follow Portland’s lead in finding a way to incorporate inclusionary zoning. Councilor Nathan Boddie proposed this idea at a recent council meeting, suggesting that land invited into the city limits through the expansion of the urban growth boundary should be required to set aside some percentage of that land for housing that’s affordable to those at or below the median income. These ideas will all have detractors. But as winter approaches, City Council must not let the voices of developers, contractors, and others who stand to profit from the home-building business overpower the admittedly harder to hear voices of the homeless—and nearly homeless—living in our city.

New mental health service assists first responders
SIDE NOTES By Corinne Boyer

espite their reputation for being tough guys, the men and women who are first on the scene at emergencies sometimes need a little help, too. That’s why the Bend City Council recently unanimously authorized a five-year agreement with psychologist Dr. Andrew Barram to provide educational tools and mental health support services for both the Bend Police and Fire departments. The new service will give first responders the option to consult with Dr. Barram— available in-house—who will coordinate finding appropriate outside mental health services. Dr. Barram will not be providing treatment. While outside mental health care has always been available to first responders, both departments want to ensure that their employees are healthy by having access to the tools necessary for handling and dealing with the stress and traumatic situations they experience every day. Bend Police Chief Jim Porter says the departments were looking for a mental healthcare professional first responders would be comfortable with. “We’re seeing an accumulation of stress as first responders have to deal with mental health calls and people who have taken their lives,” he says. “It’s having an effect on our officers, so we are exploring how we can better serve them.” Bend Fire Battalion Chief Administrator Dave Howe says offering first responders more mental health care options has been in the works for a while—especially after attending two talks by Dr. Kevin Gilmartin, a behavioral scientist who has experience with law enforcement. Gilmartin has
been “studying the effects of [people who work in] intense professions throughout their whole careers and he’s given a few talks in Bend,” Howe explains, “and he got us thinking about how we can do a better job of balancing our lives.” Chief Porter has worked in law enforcement since 1983 and over the course of his career, he says, “it’s always been a challenge for officers to maintain the resilience they need to come to work every day.” He adds, “We know we send the men and women into horrific situations and situations that you only see on television—they’re out picking up a body that’s three weeks old— and as leaders they deserve the very best we can give them.” Porter says because there is some stigma associated with seeking mental health help, they kept that in mind when they began drafting a plan. “We believe that by having someone imbedded with them,” he explains, “they will help him or her before they reach a crucial point—where they need acute services.” Howe also agrees that providing first responders with additional resources will allow them to be a healthier, happier group of people. “Fire and police both—we see an awful lot of stuff that most people don’t see…a lot of sad situations,” he says. “[Dr. Barram] is really going to help us all develop some strategies and intergrade them in healthy way. He hasn’t met everyone one yet, but he’s an open-minded guy and he’ll be able to help.” Howe believes that balancing life both at and outside of work is a vital part of maintaining a healthy staff. While first responders witness tragedies,
they also know that they, too, are putting their lives at risk. Porter says the department can lose tens of thousands of dollars if a mid-to-upper-level officer is lost, so investing more in mental health is necessary. “We owe that to them,” he says, “as the people who run towards the sound of bullets, to be able to give them that support.” Howe says the Fire Department has a physical fitness program and combining it with mental health wellness will be a great conduit for their employees. “The whole first responders’ universe is starting to realize there’s more to this job than kicking in a door and bringing a hose in or arresting someone,” he says. “Dealing with traumatic incidents on a career-long basis—that accumulation of things—we need to learn how to put them in place.” Investing in mental health for first responders doubles as an investment in the community, according to Howe. “I’m hoping that Dr. Barrum will really work on building a higher level of trust with us and the community,” he says. “When the community can see that we’re mentally fit, we’re going to have a better collaboration between all the fist responders and our community; [they] support us with funds and with trust, and we do our job with the best intentions.” Dr. Barram is still in the process of meeting first responders, but Porter and Howe believe he’s the right person for the job. “He has a ton of experience working towards mental fitness and a lot of experience with emergency mental health,” says Howe.
Councilor Nathan Boddie says the state kicked back a proposed scenario a number of years ago because the proposed UGB recommended expanding on a very large scale. The UGB has to follow certain land use rules mandated by the state and the City has to prove that it needs the land, according to Boddie. A series of planning meetings to revise the scenario to include the finalized boundaries will take place before the plan is officially submitted to the state, says Boddie. He says scenario 2.1 is the best choice. “It’s the working end of how we’ll make Bend more affordable.”
Outdoor burning season began on Oct. 24 and the City of Bend Fire Department is reminding Bend residents of burning regulations. Debris burning is not allowed in the city limits; however, recreational fires are permitted as long as fire safety regulations are followed. It’s a good idea to check the Bend Fire Department’s website to see where and when you are allowed to burn. Before burning, consider high winds, make sure you have a shovel and a hose, and be sure to extinguish fires completely before leaving the property. All regulations can be found at bendoregon.gov/burninginfo.

Investigation into evidence tampering grows at the Oregon State Police Forensic Services Division By Corinne Boyer
O
regon State Police forensic analysts process drug evidence, rape kits, conduct finger print analysis, and are a crucial part of the legal system as they provide expert testimony during trials. So when an analyst is suspected of tampering with evidence, the ripple effects are felt far and wide. It was a single piece of evidence that, after raising red flags during a case review, sparked an investigation into analyst Nika Larsen’s evidence handling. Now, district attorneys across the state are reviewing more than 2,000 cases sent to Larsen for processing or any lab she had access to. It’s the largest case the crime lab has ever dealt with. “We are taking it very seriously and no stone will be left unturned,” says Oregon State Police Public Information Officer Lieutenant Bill Fugate. According to Deschutes County District Attorney John Hummel, most of the evidence being analyzed is concentrated in Central and Eastern Oregon.
according to Deschutes County District Attorney John Hummel. Hummel explains there are multiple parts to the ongoing investigation. “One is the criminal investigation of the lab analyst and determining whether she’s guilty. Two, if she’s guilty, what to charge her with, and three, what jurisdiction will she be charged in,” he says. Larsen could be charged with state crimes or she could face federal charges—in which case Hummel’s office would not charge her.
CHECKS AND BALANCES The investigation is looking at cases in which Larsen was allegedly replacing prescription drugs with over the counter pills and instances of missing drugs, according to Hummel. But the investigation is complex because it’s not limited to cases assigned only to Larsen, and includes evidence in all the labs she had access to. Hummel says he has concerns about the lack of checks and balances present in the labs, noting that Larsen had access to the lab
The Oregon State Police Forensic Services Division employs approximately 100 people who analyze evidence at crime labs throughout the state, according to Oregon.gov. The division operates five regional forensic laboratories. A series of systematic checks are in place to ensure the procedural standards are being met, including that after evidence is examined and processed, it undergoes a second review by an additional analyst. It was this procedure that prompted the review of Larsen’s work that raised suspicions. While the investigation initially appeared to involve hundreds of cases, the number of cases being reviewed has skyrocketed into the thousands—2,284 and counting—since Larsen went on administrative leave. Lt. Fugate, the only officer answering questions about the Larsen investigation, says due to this being a criminal investigation, the department cannot answer whether or not this oversight dates back to 2007—the oldest date of cases examined by Larsen. While it’s unclear how far back investigators are digging, the mounting evidence and the involvement of multiple district attorneys raises questions about the effectiveness of lab procedures intended to prevent tampering. “I can confirm that the Oregon State Police Forensic Services Division does have a policy regarding technical review of casework, and that policy was in effect while Nika Larsen was performing casework,” says Forensic Services Division Laboratory Director Brian Medlock, adding that he couldn’t comment on specific policy procedures. The Oregon Department of Justice and the U.S. attorney for the District of Oregon are involved in the investigation,
after hours when other technicians weren’t around to observe her. “I have not been shy about saying this; there are policies, procedures that are lacking in the crime lab,” he says. “One glaring example of that is that one lab technician could have access to every piece of evidence in the lab strikes me. As a basic protection, you would just have access to the evidence that’s assigned to you, and so if you are doing something wrong and then you’re caught, then the damage is contained.” Oregon Governor Kate Brown has formed a workgroup comprised of lawyers and a police officer to examine the procedures and practices of the Oregon State Police Crime Lab. While Governor Brown’s press office did not confirm if this workgroup was formed in response to allegations against Larsen, a press release stated, “The workgroup will be tasked with examining the recent allegations of tampering and will identify any changes that need to be made.” The workgroup is co-chaired by
FEATURE House Majority Leader Jennifer Williamson and Senator Jackie Winters. According to Melissa Navas with the Governor’s Office, an official meeting date has not been set.
The latest Annual Progress Performance Report available to the public, from the 20112012 fiscal year, indicates other shortfalls in the lab’s processing of evidence. “We estimate in past years, up to 30 percent of crimes needing evidence examined by the Forensic Services Division were not submitted, due to large backlogs in casework analysis,” the report reads.
Larsen’s cases in Deschutes County date back to 2013. But according to Hummel, OSP crime labs test everything from drug cases to ballistics, so other counties could be looking at a wider range of cases.
reviewing 230 cases as of Oct. 23. “I do not know if Ms. Larsen had access to other analyst’s cases as I have seen no investigative reports yet,” he says. Colahan’s investigation includes drug and finger print cases. “[The] oldest drug case was reported to us on 8/25/2008, [and the] oldest latent print case was reported to us on 08/29/2007,” he wrote in an email. Although Hummel doesn’t believe that Larsen tampered with non-drug evidence, initially, every piece of evidence in the Bend crime lab was suspect, so he requested a list of all cases analyzed over the last two years.
“I have not been shy about saying this; there are policies, procedures that are lacking in the crime lab.”
His office released a checklist containing nine factors used for determining the involvement of Larsen in drug cases including indicators such as the presence of controlled substances prior to the lab testing, quantity issues, and the types of drugs. After reviewing each case Hummel will determine whether or not the prior conviction stands.
Because the number of -Deschutes County District Attorney John Hummel “If I think—in spite of the cases sometimes exceeds the problems with this lab capacity of a single lab, cases analyst—the conviction is still can be transferred from lab valid if the evidence in a particular case is proper…then to lab.

RAINBOW GIRLS
Asher Fulero Band plays 10/29 at McMenamins.
T
he Asher Fulero Band plays the type of jazz/funk fusion that is hard to do well. It walks the fine line between super chill jazz, chunky, dance-floor funk, and exploratory jam band noodling, without straining at the seams. Frontman and keyboard player Asher Fulero has been making music for a long time with multiple projects in the works and makes the entire enterprise look incredibly easy for those of us without that much drive. Whether he is playing as Halo Refuser, his mid-tempo psy/bass electronic work, as Darkwhyte, dub/chillout downtempo instrumental hip-hop, or as the funky, jammed-out Asher Fulero Band, he puts his own unique spin on every genre he touches. Catching Air is the band’s first full-length studio album, with cameos by Steve Berlin (Los Lobos) and Mimi Naja (Fruition) and production by Justin Phelps (The Mars Volta, Mr. Bungle). It’s a polished record that impressively hits a sweet spot for fans of piano-driven jam bands, hook-ready funk, and psychedelic trips into high-energy circuitousness. Fulero chatted with the Source last week about the debut album and his upcoming show in Bend. Source Weekly: So, I’m guessing music was in you from a young age? Asher Fulero: Oh yeah. Music has been a lifelong pursuit for me. I started playing piano when I was four and started taking piano lessons in early grade school. I ended up going to music school for college and getting a degree in music and then spent the next 15 years as a performing musician and a studio session musician. Maybe my freshman year of college I dabbled in other majors I might look at, but there really wasn’t ever any competition. SW: And keyboard and piano were always that first love? AF: Yeah, I’m a piano player. I do actually appreciate all facets
of music and genres of music so I try really hard to play all the different genres I can get my hands on, but also throughout my life I’ve been lucky enough to play all the different roles. I’ve been a side man and a front man, a for-hire guy. You know, I’ve been a sound man and a tour manager. I do pretty much everything for the band right now as we’re still gathering our team. The band is still growing its wings in that capacity.
The super badass Rainbow Girls hail from Santa Barbara and create a sound combining the best of surf rock and psych rock with the laid back fuzz-alt Dum Dum Girls, with a dash of Rivers Cuomo-style heart-on-sleeve songwriting. These women have created a band to watch and their new album, Perceptronium is a downright modern American classic filled to the brim with over a dozen of your favorite new songs. Plus, they historically put on the first all-lady show in history at San Francisco’s legendary Fillmore, proving that, whether making history or not, they, first and foremost, rock. 8 pm. Thursday, October 29. Volcanic Theatre Pub, 70 SW Century Dr. $10.
SW: I was trying to describe your band’s sound and it’s funny because there’s a dichotomy between some of the lyrical content and how upbeat and fun the music is. So, it’s this really upbeat funk but also some pretty bluesy lyrics at points. How would you describe your sound? AF: I think a sound is hard to describe that way, as they say about most music. But I generally gravitate towards three main areas. There’s the classic psychedelic rock, there’s the funk/jazz fusion, and then there’s the improvisation. I wanted the band to embrace the improvisation side and I think the album captures that really well. SW: If you had to describe to someone here in Bend what your show is going to be like, how would you describe the typical Asher Fulero Band show? AF: A high energy, psychedelic dance party. But it definitely has a rock edge. But maybe with a Peter Gabriel tune in there and some old-school Traffic/Pink Floyd jams. It’s a little bit of everything.

Antonio Sanchez & Migration. Photo by Justin Bettman.
A
ntonio Sánchez is not just a drummer, a musician, or even just a composer. His score for the film Birdman contributed to making that film the immersive and innovative work that it was. The score is simultaneously omnipresent and clandestine, the percussive masterwork creating tension and unease in moments of slapstick comedy or abstract pathos. It is the new high watermark for film composition and will probably be that way for some time to come. His work as frontman for the band Migration could not be more different than his film compositions. The group’s new album, Meridian Suite, is jazz for grown-ups. It is complex, yet not so abstract as to be hermetically sealed to the casual jazz admirer. It’s a solid and downright entertaining album, with a seamless continuity that gives light to Sánchez’s versatility in the opening minutes, while feeling like one, unbroken thought process given form. Sánchez is coming to Bend in support of Meridian Suite and is bringing Migration with him. The band includes such giants as Seamus Blake on tenor sax, John Escreet on piano, and Matt Brewer on electric and acoustic bass. Judging from the album, this should be an legendary show featuring some of the greatest jazz musicians around. Here’s an excerpt of a conversation this reporter had with Antonio Sánchez last week: Source Weekly: So, were drums always the instrument of choice from as early as you can remember? Antonio Sánchez: Yes, since five years old. I remember seeing my first drum kit and I fell in love with it. It was love at first sight and I never looked back.
SW: And how quickly did you dive into jazz in particular? AS: Jazz took me a long time. I was a rocker at heart. I’ve always loved rock and roll music. My father was from the Woodstock generation, so I grew up listening to what he was listening to: The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Cream, Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix...you name it. Those were my first influences. I didn’t get into jazz until much, much later when I was studying classical piano at the [National] Conservatory. There was a jazz workshop and I started going and checking what they were doing. I started getting into the possibilities that jazz and improvisation gives to an instrumentalist. That must have been in my late teens when I started getting into that. SW: Can you tell me a bit about how you formed Migration and what you see as your mission as a group? AS: I wanted to create a band where there were absolutely no rules, no preconceptions about what kinds of music we’re going to play. If it has jazz influence, great, if it has rock influence, great, but I just wanted it to be open for me to write whatever the hell I wanted without having to worry about the musicianship of the other members of the band and whether they could pull it off or without any stylistic limitations of the members of the band. SW: I’ve always described the Birdman score as the musical equivalent of the sound of anxiety. Is that what you were going after? AS: Absolutely. Between Alejandro [G. Iñárritu], the director, and everything...it was all under his guidance and direction. He wanted to portray the angst and mental state of mind of Riggan Thomson, the
main character. So, before they started shooting the film, that’s when I started with the demos. Just based on the script and what Alejandro would tell me, that’s how I started coming up with the general vibe of what we were supposed to do. You know, as a musician on a nightly basis, I react to other musicians. In this particular case, I reacted to a storyline and, later, to images. I don’t think it’s that different though because I’m basically using my instincts the same way in both situations. That’s why I think it was so second nature to improvise something that would portray, like you were saying, the anxiety of Riggan Thomson. SW: Was that type of collaboration enjoyable for you? AS: It was so much fun. It was really fast and very fluid. I was just doing my thing. That’s what I really enjoyed about it: Alejandro let me do what I do, he didn’t want me to start doing something that I’m not the guy for. He called me because he felt like I was the guy for that. The way that I can portray or transmit or communicate things on the drums, that’s why he called me. For me it was really pleasurable. He’s got a reputation for being really, really difficult, especially with how much he demands out of people. He’s a great guy, but to me one of the coolest things about the whole thing was to collaborate in such a different field at that level with that level of creativity. To see how he works and how his mind works and to see how much he cares about his product... that was incredibly inspiring.

uring the November First Friday Art Hop in Downtown Bend, the Oregon Natural Desert Association (ONDA) will unveil its 2016 Wild Desert Calendar and showcase some of the best photography of Oregon’s high desert from the last decade. ONDA, a 25-year-old Bend-based nonprofit dedicated to protecting and rehabilitating Oregon’s high desert habitats, dreamed up the calendar as a way to introduce the rest of Oregon to the beautiful landscapes east of the Cascade Mountains. Now in its 12th year, the ONDA Wild Desert Calendar is a collection of photography dedicated to capturing the beauty of Oregon’s high desert.

I
t’s always a good time for The Rocky Horror Picture Show, but something just feels right about seeing it in October. Maybe it’s because of the fabulous costumes or the midnight horror movie vibe, but those are just excuses to enjoy one of the very best things ever created by humanity. Seriously: Pyramids, The Colosseum, and Rocky Horror. I’m calling it. Now, you astute readers might have noticed that there was a Rocky Horror going on at 2nd Street awhile back, but that was a whole different ball of socks. What 2nd Street and Lonely Fish Productions were doing was a shadow performance, which is basically actors and actresses lip-synching, singing, and acting out the show while the movie plays in the background. Getting to watch the classic film while also seeing some of Central Oregon’s best performers having a blast made those shadow shows more fun than humans should be able to handle. This production is a full-blown, top-to-bottom production of the entire musical with no movie involved. Just excellent actors, a kick-ass band, and some good-old-fashioned singing and dancing. JoEllen Ussery, founder and chief instigator of Lurking Squirrel Productions, put this show on at the Tower back in 2004, so this is also a bit of a revival, with a good chunk of the cast stepping into their old platform shoes. “I moved back to the North Bay Area directly after our 2004 production,” Ussery recalls. “On a visit in the summer of 2013, during a dinner gathering with Michelle [Mejaski, choreographer and playing Columbia], Richard [Steffenson, playing Frank ‘N’ Furter], and a few others, the idea was brought up to do a revival. By fall of 2014 the idea starting taking shape. We thought we could do rehearsals partly by Skype. Long story shorter....Roy [Christenson, narrator and executive producer] and I decided to move here instead. We arrived this last June and hit the ground running.” Based on a recent rehearsal, “hitting the ground running” is an understatement. Richard Steffenson’s Frank ‘N’ Furter is one-ofa-kind: A wholly original take on the character that reminded me why I liked his work so much in 2004. Jenni Peskin was born to play Magenta with the perfect hair and make-up, but also with
the sly humor that no one ever gives that character credit for. Steven Livingston is one of the best Rockys I’ve ever seen, with a fine singing voice to match the Charles Atlas approved good looks. Kelly Guylene and Thor Erickson are perfect as Janet and Brad, finding that perfect balance of nebbish and hysterical, without ever overstepping. Also, Rick Johnson IS Riff Raff. His effortless swagger and wonderful chemistry with Peskin make it difficult to stop looking at them, regardless of what they’re doing. Everyone was giving it their all, from Mejaski’s innovative choreography and excellent tap dancing, to the spooky phantoms led by the intense Stuart Poindexter, the absolutely-rocking band led by Val Billington, and the understated direction by Ussery. “During our first cast meeting last fall, I explained I wanted a darker version than we did previously,” Ussery explains. “Val, our music director, came up with the theme of ‘Deeper, Darker, Harder.’ It’s also far sexier, which wasn’t easy. It was pretty sexy before.” So, how did she do it? “As a director working with several of the same actors, I was able to go much deeper into their characters with them” she says. “As the choreographer, Michelle was able to keep some of what we did last time but expanded immensely. This show has some wicked choreography.” It is a damned-sexy show with more grinding and gyrating than I’ve ever seen outside of late-night Showtime. So, in other words, it’s fun for the whole family! As long as your family is into sweet transvestites, aliens, beautiful singing, swift and sexy dancing, stabbing, and a range of unconventional kinds of love.

Their talent and dedication has attracted other artists to the project, including Tyson Fisher of Silverton, Oregon, and passionate high desert photographers such as Jon Muyskens, Barb Rumer, Jamey Pyles, and Dave Rein. Jim Davis says he’s proud of the way the calendar has drawn people to the spectacular beauty of the high desert over the years. “These places in Oregon are wonderful, you just have to capture them,” he says in a release. “The calendar provides a way to show how spectacular these places really are. It’s the only collection of photography dedicated solely to the Oregon desert.” On Friday, November 6, ONDA and Deschutes Brewery Public House in downtown Bend will host a celebration of the photographers who contributed to the 2016 calendar. In addition, 20 images from the upcoming calendar as well as from years past will be on display in the pub’s upstairs Tap Room. The November 6 event takes place from 5 to 8 pm, accompanied by live music from Coyote Willow and special release desert-inspired beers, including a Central Oregon Saison and Painted Wonder Red IPA, named for Sutton Mountain and the Painted Hills. Photography from the event will continue to be displayed on the red wall at the pub through the entire month of November.

Oregon Spirit Distillers steals the scene with Barrel Thief By Erin Rook
Those creative infusions also give patrons the option to customize their drinks, including non-alcoholic options, like a seasonal shrub with soda water, or a lemonade with raspberry-rose syrup.

Still, Irwin says it’s a time-tested classic that patrons ask for more than any other drink. “Our number one selling cocktail is our Moscow Mule, made with Oregon Spirit vodka, ginger beer, lime juice, and served in an authentic copper mug,” Irwin says. “Those fly off the bar on busy nights.”

And as fall creeps into winter, the Barrel Thief will launch a new menu during the first week of November that offers hot drinks and boozy adult milkshakes using locally-made Bonta Gelato.
Barrel Thief brings craft to spirits.
B
end may be known as a beer town, but the spirits scene is picking up speed. With the recent emergence of popular cocktail bars like Dogwood Cocktail Cabin and Stihl Whiskey Bar, it’s clear that Bendites have a taste for the hard stuff. So it's only natural that Bend’s oldest distillery would follow in the footsteps of brew pubs co-located within breweries and open its own on-site cocktail lounge. Tucked away on the south side of the burgeoning Maker’s District, Oregon Spirit Distillers opened its Barrel Thief cocktail lounge over the summer to better showcase its craft spirits. And they may be the first distillery in the state to venture into territory typically reserved for craft beer. “Distilleries in Oregon are allowed to have tasting rooms and serve samplesized cocktails using just one mixer in the drink and keeping the portion of liquor per sample to half an ounce,” explains co-owner Kathy Irwin. “I believe that we are the only distillery in Oregon that has also opened a full-premise licensed bar on site of the actual distillery location, which enables us to make cocktails from the spirit we are making right there.” For her co-owner Brad Irwin, adding a cocktail lounge was the obvious extension of the craft distillery.
“[He] started his career in booze as a bartender and wanted to incorporate that experience into the business to be the maker of the spirit and see it come full circle back into cocktails at the bar,” she explains. The cocktail menu, which includes both specialty and classic drinks, was a collaboration between Brad, who tackled the classics, and Barrel Thief ’s lead mixologist Nicole Rushton, who created most of the specialty cocktails. The classic menu includes the usual suspects—Manhattan, whiskey sour, mint julep, old fashioned, and the like—while the specialty menu uses the spirits as inspiration for a whole host of creative concoctions. A highlight of the specialty menu, the Silver Lining, builds on the herbaceous overtones of Scribble dry gin, pairing it with lime and two unique house creations—a seasonal “shrub” and a “dusk” simple syrup. On a recent evening, we tried the Silver Lining with a peppermint, ginger, cardamom shrub (a type of drinking vinegar). The complex herbal notes matched beautifully with the simple syrup, which was infused with black tea and lavender. The dangerously drinkable results were bright, fresh, and herby. Other inspired options include the
And it’s easy to see how the bar, despite its out-of-the-way location, could become a local hot spot. Aside from the delicious drinks, the spot has a colorful patio backdropped by a large mural and including cozy fire pits. Inside, the lounge has a vibe somewhere between brew pub and fancy cocktail bar. A little bit rustic, a little bit classy, it captures the upscale casual aesthetic that epitomizes Bend.
every year since we opened!
While the drinks are the main draw here, the food menu offers a mix of pub-style sandos and small plate options with a dash of the unexpected (specifically, Pringles and a broad array of pickled veggies). “From our kitchen, our number one selling item is our pulled pork sandwich,” Irwin says. “It is smothered in bourbon BBQ sauce, made with our own C.W. Irwin straight bourbon whiskey.” In the end, it all comes back to the spirits. “The Barrel Thief is unique as a bar because it only serves the craft-distilled spirits made at Oregon Spirit Distillers or other NW distilleries,” Irwin explains. “We have a viewing window to the production facility to engage the lounge customer in the distillery process. We love to educate our customers on the art of distillation, the crafting of fine spirits, and the crafting of quality handmade cocktails.”

Tanked Limeade (Wild Card absinthe, hard cider, lime, and bitters) and Young Love (Scribbles dry gin, strawberry basil simple syrup, strawberries, black pepper, tonic, and lime).

A Pumpkin-Free Fall
Beers to drink if you’re all gourded out
G
etting sick of pumpkin beers yet? Hate on them all you want, but— much like Taco Bell and Thursday-night football—it exists because you all secretly can’t get enough of it. Beer flavored with everyone’s favorite late-October gourd is nothing new in craft at this point. Where the Bend Whole Foods would’ve stocked Elysian’s Night Owl pumpkin ale and maybe Southern Tier’s Pumking a few years back, it’s now got an entire shelf full of them, including Dogfish Head’s Punkin, Rogue’s Pumpkin Patch Ale, and Epic’s Fermentation Without Representation. And just like Christmas, these beers have been appearing earlier and earlier every year, with Pumking (the imperial stout that’s been the main catalyst behind Southern Tier’s cross-country growth) hitting stores in July and Tampa-based Cigar City Brewing releasing a heavy chocolate pumpkin ale called Seasonal Creep in June. If you’re resentful of pumpkin’s rise in seasonal drinking, rest assured that it’ll all be over soon—it almost falls out of shelves entirely after Halloween. But what if you want something for the season that doesn’t smack of cinnamon and sugar and won’t give you a stomachache after consuming an entire bottle? Here are a few ideas:
Old Rasputin (North Coast): No offense meant to Oregon’s fine breweries, but none of them have made a stout as thick, syrupy, and downright chewable as Old Rasputin, a mainstay on nitro taps across Bend. The colder and more blustery it gets outside, the better it tastes. It’s magical that way. Also try Narwhal from Sierra Nevada for another flavor-tastic stout.

Cyclocross racer Molly Cameron makes dudes eat her dust photo by Dan Scott Mares
WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / October 29, 2015 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE
By Sam Katzman
The last days of October in Central Oregon feel magical in a way that is different from the rest of the year. Maybe it’s the little bit of bite in the air coupled with late autumn golden-hued light of the sky, or maybe it’s something else entirely. Many cultures recognize this time of year as that when the veil between the living and the spirit world is at its thinnest. Whether you subscribe to that theory or not, an afternoon stroll through a historic cemetery makes for a fun fall activity.

Molly Cameron, above, leads the pack heading into this weekend's Halloween Cyclocross Crusade. Behind her are some of the fastest male cyclists in the sport.
The highest spots in the Category A Cross Crusade standings are filled with names like Ryan, Sean, Erik, and Ben. But one name in particular stands out near the top. Molly Cameron has always enjoyed competing with the guys. And for a time, she was one of the guys. Cameron is the only transgender athlete to compete in the Union Cycliste Internationale (international competitive cycling organization) Cyclocross World Cup.
step on the Cross Crusade podium. One year, she was edged by a point.
done World Cups in Europe, races in China, Japan, and all over the U.S.,” Cameron says. “Outside of Japan, [Oregon] has probably the biggest, most passionate scene. There’s a good dozen riders in Oregon, and especially in Bend, who I love to compete with because I could beat them on any weekend and they could beat me.”
“I’ve never won the overall and I’d love to do that this year,” she says. This season, she’s determined to push to the front and stay there. That means she’s taking the long way home instead of short cuts. Going to sleep as it gets dark and waking before it’s light.
In 2008, Cameron brought her bike to Europe and became the first transgender athlete to compete
She notes that her proudest accomplishment is not a multi-colored jersey, a memory of her crossing the finish line, or making history in the transgender community, but rather the balance she manages to keep in her life.
Growing up, Cameron didn’t hope to be the next big name in cycling. She simply pedaled to feed the competitive drive that growled inside her.
From there, like the wheels beneath her feet, Cameron’s career quickly spun forward. “Here in Oregon, the racing level is really high. I’ve raced all over the world. I’ve

“I never really daydreamed about being a pro; I daydreamed about racing against the fastest people that I could,” she says.
Shortly after moving to the Rose City, she opened the Portland Bicycle Studio and formed a team of racers. Though she had a pro contract as a road cyclist for a bit and spent much of her early years on the velodrome, moving to Oregon helped Cameron settle into her true passion: the muddy, rugged trails of cyclocross.
Located roughly 30 miles northeast of Bend, south of Powell Butte, this graveyard is pretty much in the middle of nowhere. Its emerald green turf stands out against the sage and juniper landscape of the high desert. Its location makes it one of the most scenic old cemeteries in the area with nothing but expansive Cascade views and big skies to keep watch over the dead.
“You can talk to my friends and they’ll tell you I did a lot of lonely five-hour bike rides this summer,” Cameron says with a laugh.
Now, she’s at the front of the peloton heading into the fourth and fifth stages of the Oregon Bicycle Racing Association’s Cross Crusade series this weekend at Deschutes Brewery.
Cameron was in her mid-20s frogging through the San Francisco streets as a bike messenger when she decided to dedicate her life to pursuing a career in cycling. In 2001, Cameron came to Portland to visit a friend. On a whim, they chose to swap apartments for a few months. Cameron couldn’t leave.

in the Cyclocross World Cup. Like her childhood-self, she wasn’t doing it for fame or publicity. She just wanted to go up against the best. “I didn’t really think of it like a big statement or anything. It was just kind of me following my passion,” Cameron says. “I care a lot about gender politics and that stuff, but as a bike racer I do it because I love it. I just did it because I wanted to race against the fastest people that I could.” Though Cameron is one of the most accomplished cyclocross racers in Oregon, she’s only made it to the second-highest
“Being able to race at a high level and run a bike shop and a pro women’s team, if I’m keeping my life stress and work stress managed well,” she explains, “it allows me to focus, rest, and recover better.” In order to stay in the hunt for the Cross Crusade title, Cameron will have to aim for podium finishes both days in Bend. But in every race she’s going for first place anyway. “Every year I get asked, ‘What are your goals? What’s your target?’” she says. “The last five or six years I’ve said, ‘I go into every race to win it. I start every race and I want to win it.’” Like always, Cameron will keep racing with the guys. And beating them. Visit crosscrusade.com for more information on the Halloween Cross Crusade this weekend and team.portlandbicyclestudio.com to learn more about Molly’s team.
CAMP POLK CEMETERY Located to the west of Bend, just north of Sisters, people have been taking their final respite here since 1880. Unlike the uniform and nearly unadorned Pilgrim’s Rest, Camp Polk Cemetery seems to lack any particular order and is colorful with mementos left for the dearly departed. This spot is apparently in demand as a final destination as more than one future plot has been creatively “reserved” for later use.
PILOT BUTTE CEMETERY As the name suggests, this local grave site sits on the south side of Pilot Butte. More park-like than the other two locales, this is a nice place to spend some time. A quick Google search will also tell you that, according to some, it’s so nice a place the spirits of many of the interred simply refuse to leave.

Problems plague The Last Witch Hunter By Jared Rasic

in Diesel is an interesting fellow. He refuses to talk about his sexuality or his ethnicity; started his career writing, directing, producing, and starring in his first feature; and is an unabashed puppy dog on Facebook. Most importantly, he loves Dungeons and Dragons. He has played for more than 20 years and has even written the forward for the book 30 Years of Adventure: A Celebration of Dungeons and Dragons. With The Last Witch Hunter, the dream has come true because I’ll be damned if he didn’t make his very own D&D movie. The flick tells the tale of Kaulder (Diesel), a hairy Viking Macklemore from the 13th century whose wife and daughter are wiped out by a black plague whipped up by the Witch Queen. She wants to wipe out humanity because we’re basically a parasite on Earth and she’s made of trees or something. As he kills her, she curses him with immortality, so he has to survive through history without his family. We then jump to 800 years later, Kaulder now looks like a nightclub bouncer in Florida and works with the Knights of the Axe and Cross hunting witches. They provide him with Dolans, a priest that basically acts as Kaulder’s handler, friend, and confessor. Michael Caine plays Kaulder’s 36th Dolan, who is getting ready to pass the torch to
the 37th, Elijah Wood. When Caine is attacked, Kaulder teams up with a witch to get some deep v-necked revenge. The biggest issue with the film is that it doesn’t differentiate itself from the onslaught of urban fantasy books, movies, and shows of the last few decades. As much fun as Diesel is to watch, Kaulder is basically a mash-up of Alan Moore’s John Constantine and Jim Butcher’s Harry Dresden. This is a man who has been capturing and killing witches for 800 years. Everyone is afraid of him and when he walks into a room, people run. Kaulder is the Keyser Soze of immortal witch hunters. Now that is a great premise, except that Kaulder is SUPER nice. Like, really polite and friendly, without a single anti-hero bone in his body. Everything shouldn’t be populated with anti-heroes, but when your fearsome witch hunter is doling out hugs like juice at the Red Cross, there might be some wires getting crossed somewhere. Director Breck Eisner has made one decent horror movie in The Crazies and one terrible action movie in Sahara, with The Last Witch Hunter falling somewhere in between. It has some fun ideas (witch prison!) and some terrible ones (over-reliance on a flaming sword of doom); it has some good performances (Rose Leslie as Chloe The

The film feels made by committee, as if they were nervous about how nerdy the whole D&D vibe was getting (the film could have used a Drow), so everything just turned out kinda half-assed. This is the kind of movie that really needs a whole ass in order to work. I’m really glad we have Vin Diesel. I will love most of the Fast and Furious and Riddick movies until the day I die, and I think The Iron Giant is the best animated film of all time, so don’t get me wrong: I wanted this movie to work so badly. The fact that Diesel gets to indulge his inner nerd and make a living at it is wonderful and, I’m sure, a dream come true. The movie blatantly sets up a sequel since Diesel is looking to get another franchise going, so maybe with stronger direction and a better script, we can roll the 12-sided die on the next one.
The Last Witch Hunter Dir. Breck Eisner Grade: D+ Now Playing at Old Mill Stadium

The World According to Monsanto
Dracula
The Importance of Being Earnest
The Green Team Movie Night brings forth another thought-provoking conservation film to boil the blood and awaken the brain. This doc follows a French filmmaker’s investigation into the corporate practices of Monsanto; specifically, their GMO crops and chemicals. What she finds will not only confirm most of our fears about the global giant, but also show how unstoppable a company like that can be when it sets its sight on what it truly wants. What does it want? I haven’t seen the movie, but I’m assuming to become Dr. Evil.
This screening isn’t just going to bust out Bela Lugosi’s classic Dracula from 1931, oh no, it’s also got the 1931 Spanish language Dracula, as well. While I personally would have preferred Lugosi’s version to be followed up by the 1972 classic Blacula or even Scream Blacula Scream from 1973, the Spanish version is also a treat for the entire family. At least the ones that can read subtitles. If not, the comically gigantic acting is a delight from top to bottom.
This is a one-night only screening of the West End revival of the Oscar Wilde classic. Starring the absolutely incredible David Suchet as Lady Bracknell, this is one of the most highly regarded productions of this show in history. It tells the story of two bachelor friends who lead double lives as they woo women much more desirable than they are. A comedy of manners and general smartassery that only gets funnier as the years progress.

FILM SHORTS By Jared Rasic 99 HOMES: A topical drama starring Michael Shannon and Andrew Garfield that focuses on an evicted father getting revenge on the greedy real estate broker that is behind his troubles. Advanced word on the film isn’t great, but Michael Shannon is always worth watching, even in dreck. His performances are always unhinged enough to make everything fairly unpredictable. Old Mill Stadium & IMAX
first film since the masterful Lincoln sees Tom Hanks as an American lawyer recruited by the CIA during the cold war. While Spielberg’s 2000’s output has been stronger than he gets credit for, a re-teaming with Tom Hanks for a spy thriller seems like just the thing to get the critics back on his side. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX
CRIMSON PEAK: Guillermo del Toro has had a rough few years with the underwhelming critical and financial success of Pacific Rim and having to leave The Hobbit films before production began. But now del Toro goes back to the genre that made him famous with a gothic horror film starring Tom Hiddleston, Jessica Chastain, and Mia Wasikowska. This film has been advertised heavily for the last nine months, so here’s hoping it lives (dies?) up to the hype. Old Mill Stadium & IMAX
EVEREST 3D: The true story of one of the hairiest attempts to summit Everest in history. For once, the use of 3D (which I think we can all agree now isn’t a fad anymore) actually enhances the film greatly. Seeing the depth of frame as thousands of feet separate men from the ground should make for a whiteknuckle film-going experience. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX
GOOSEBUMPS 3D: Advanced word says this is the most fun children’s film since Zathura (which we all know was better than Jumanji). Jack Black plays R.L. Stine, the author of the 200+ series of kid- oriented Goosebumps horror novels. When all of the monsters from his stories escape the pages and jump into the real world, he must team up with some wily kids to capture them all over again. Count me in! Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX GRANDMA: Lily Tomlin is a riot in this dramedy about the choices we make when it comes to family and how those choices change our path in life. When Tomlin’s granddaughter comes to her for money to help her procure an abortion, what follows is a funny and bittersweet examination of a flawed woman’s life in a fairly non-judgmental fashion. Highly recommended. Tin Pan Theater
HOTEL TRANSYLVANIA 2 3D: While the first one has its moments, Adam Sandler isn’t having a great year and this animated sequel will most likely follow that trend. In this one, Dracula has a brand new grandson, who disappointingly isn’t showing any monster tendencies. No matter what, it won’t be worse than Pixels. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX THE INTERN: Robert De Niro grows bored with retirement and becomes the intern of Anne Hathaway, the CEO of an online fashion magazine. Of course he doesn’t like computers or technology of any kind, which makes perfect sense for him to work for an online magazine because it is a comedy. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX
JEM AND THE HOLOGRAMS: So, this is based off of that cartoon that 30-year old women watched when they were kids, except now it looks sad, terrible, and like it might be missing the whole point of the animated series. A group of young women go from being an internet sensation to overnight rock
for fatigue, stress, weight loss and PMS
Providing private, compassionate euthanasia services for your cats & dogs in the privacy of your pet’s home.
THE LAST WITCH HUNTER: There is a lot riding on this one. Vin Diesel is out to prove he can carry a franchise without “Fast” in the title, plus if The Last Witch Hunter does well, Vinnie has a chance to get funding for a new Riddick adventure. Diesel plays the last witch hunter, who is all that is protecting humanity from the occult forces of doom. The trailers are scarily reminiscent of the dreadful Seventh Son, but Diesel’s weird presence might carry the day. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

THE MARTIAN: Matt Damon plays Mark Watney, an astronaut stranded on Mars alone, figuring out how to survive until help can (possibly) come for him. Prepare for this to be a smash hit the size of Gravity, but with better science, acting, and story. The book is a classic and advanced word says the film reaches those same heights.

EDUCATIONAL LECTURES
“The Senior Pet : From Head to Tail” November 7th at 3:30 pm at the clinic. A discussion of the common ailments that affect our senior pets and what we can do to make their golden years the best they can be.
MAZE RUNNER: THE SCORCH TRIALS: The sequel to the surprisingly good Maze Runner from last year. The surviving maze runners now have to contend with the outside world, a post-apocalyptic, nightmare desert that no one can survive. Hopefully this one can capture the excellent pacing and intense storyline from the first one, even though we know what the mystery is now. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX
PAN: Cashing in on America’s love of an origin story, Pan tells the story of Peter as a boy discovering Neverland, not as a pansexual demigod/ruler of lost children. With direction from Joe Wright (Atonement, Hanna), the film should at least look very pretty, regardless of possible dubious content. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

PEOPLE, PLACES, THINGS: The always delightful Jemaine Clement (What We Do in the Shadows) plays a newly single father of twin daughters struggling to balance parenting with keeping his free-spirited life intact. From the director of the underrated The Winning Season, People, Places, Things should be a light and heartwarming crowd-pleaser. Tin Pan Theater
ROCK THE KASBAH: Already being hailed as the absolute bottom of Bill Murray’s career, Rock the Kasbah follows a struggling promoter as he takes his latest act to Afghanistan since he can’t get them booked anywhere in the States or Europe. The trailers make it look bad, but the reviews are even worse. But even in his worst films, Murray is aways a weird and wonderful presence that is always worth watching. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX
SICARIO: Emily Blunt plays an idealistic FBI agent who learns the brutal reality about keeping Mexico and the United States from the drug cartels. Sicario is Spanish for “assassin” if that tells you anything. Word on the street says this will be the film to beat for Best Picture, Best Actress, and Best Actor (Benicio Del Toro) in the 2015 Oscar race. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX
STEVE JOBS: The excellent Michael Fassbender takes on a delicious script by Aaron Sorkin ("West Wing", Social Network) and genius director Danny Boyle (Trainspotting, 28 Days Later). While the subject matter has been tackled quite a bit, this huge amount of talent should make for an engrossing and electrifying experience. Expect to be educated, as well as entertained.

ADVICE GODDESS The Alone Ranger
—Man Cave Confusion Just like women, men often verbalize complex emotions—for example, “I want sausage and pepperoni on that.” The truth is, men have feelings; they just don’t hang them out to dry on the balcony railing like big cotton granny panties. Developmental psychologist Joyce Benenson, who studies sex differences, notes in Warriors and Worriers that men, who evolved to be the warriors of the species, typically express emotions less often and with less intensity than women. Men are especially likely to put a lid on fear and sadness, emotions that reflect vulnerability—though it’s also the rare man you’ll hear chirp to his buddy, “OMG, those are, like, the cutest wingtips!” Men’s emotional coolness is an evolved survival tactic, Benenson explains. “Emotions communicate feelings to others. They also affect our own behavior.” In battle, “a person who loses control of his emotions cannot think clearly about what is happening around him. Revealing to the enemy that one feels scared or sad would be even worse.” Women, on the other hand, bond through sharing “personal vulnerabilities,” Benenson notes. Men and women do have numerous similarities—like having the adrenaline-infused fight-or-flight reaction as our primary physiological response to stress. However, psychologist Shelley Taylor finds that women also have an alternate stress response, which she named “tend-and-befriend.” “Tending” involves self-soothing through caring for others, and “befriending” describes “the creation of and maintenance of social networks” to turn to for comforting. (And no, she isn’t talking about Facebook or Instagram.) So, as a woman, you may long to snuggle up to somebody for a restorative boohoo, but for a man, opening up about his feelings can make him feel worse—and even threatened. The problem is we have a tendency to assume other people are emotionally wired just like us. Being mindful of that and of the evolutionary reasons a guy might need to go off in a corner to lick his wounds might help you avoid taking it personally: “I’m upset about how you’re upset!” (Great! And now his problem has a problem.) It would be helpful if an upset man would hang a “Do not disturb” sign on his face when he just wants to drink a beer (or four) and watch “South
Waking Up Rusted My girlfriend loves to spoon when we sleep. She says it makes her feel safe and loved. I have recently developed spinal problems and have to sleep on my back like a corpse with this weird neck pillow. I’ll put my hand on her thigh to make her feel connected, but it’s not really cutting it. I suspect this reminds her of her marriage falling apart and her now ex-husband sleeping on the other side of the bed with a bunch of pillows between them. —Ouch Sometimes a person’s need feel to safe and loved has to be forgone for the other person’s need to not be an Oxy-addicted hunchback at 45. You can surely understand where she’s coming from. Nothing like going from sleeping lovingly intertwined with somebody to feeling as if you’re sleeping next to an open casket. This may feel even worse for your girlfriend if she does associate physical distance with emotional distance, having had an ex who built a Berlin Wall of pillows between them and would only have been farther away in bed if he’d slept on the floor.

What you can do is promise to make it up to her with extra affection when you’re out of bed—and do that: Go to cuddlesville when you’re watching TV together; shower with her; put your arms around her and kiss her head while she’s washing a mug. (P.S. This is also a smart practice for men who don’t sleep on a foam log.) Love does involve making sacrifices, but one of them probably shouldn’t be no longer being able to feel your toes.

Sometimes, when my boyfriend is upset, he wants comforting, just like I would. He’ll vent or lay his head in my lap, and I stroke his hair. But sometimes, he just sits on the couch and says nothing. How do I know what he needs, and how do I feel better about it when it isn’t me?
Park.” You could try to read his body language—like crossed arms and stiff posture saying “go away.” But if his body isn’t speaking up all that clearly, you could say, “I’m here if you wanna talk—or if you don’t.” If it’s the latter, stock the fridge; make him a sandwich; make him some sex. In other words, comfort him in the way a clammed-up guy needs to be comforted. It beats being the girlfriend version of the enthusiastic good Samaritan who, on a slow day, forces little old ladies across the street at gunpoint.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): “Just as a snake sheds its skin, we must shed our past over and over again.” So says Buddhist teacher Jack Kornfield. Can you guess why I’m bringing it to your attention, Sagittarius? It’s one of those times when you can do yourself a big favor by sloughing off the stale, worn-out, decaying parts of your past. Luckily for you, you now have an extraordinary talent for doing just that. I suspect you will also receive unexpected help and surprising grace as you proceed. Halloween costume suggestion: a snake molting its skin.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Speaking on behalf of your wild mind, I’m letting you know that you’re due for an immersion in revelry and festivity. Plugging away at business as usual could become counterproductive unless you take at least brief excursions to the frontiers of pleasure. High integrity may become sterile unless you expose it to an unpredictable adventure or two. Halloween costume suggestion: party animal, hell raiser, social butterfly, god or goddess of delight. Every one of us harbors a touch of crazy genius that periodically needs to be unleashed, and now is that time for you.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): I expect you to be in a state of continual birth for the next four weeks. Awakening and activation will come naturally. Your drive to blossom and create may be irresistible, bordering on unruly. Does that sound overwhelming? I don’t think it will be a problem as long as you cultivate a mood of amazed amusement about how strong it feels. To help maintain your poise, keep in mind that your growth spurt is a natural response to the dissolution that preceded it. Halloween costume suggestion: a fountain, an erupting volcano, the growing beanstalk from the Jack and the Beanstalk fairy tale.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): I hope you will choose a Halloween costume that emboldens you to feel powerful. For the next three weeks, it’s in your long-term interest to invoke a visceral sense of potency, dominion, and sovereignty. What clothes and trappings might stimulate these qualities in you? Those of a king or queen? A rock star or CEO? A fairy godmother, superhero, or dragon-tamer? Only you know which archetypal persona will help stir up your untapped reserves of confidence and command. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): It’s time to stretch the boundaries, Pisces. You have license to expand the containers and outgrow the expectations and wage rebellion for the sheer fun of it. The frontiers are calling you. Your enmeshment in small talk and your attachment to trivial wishes are hereby suspended. Your mind yearns to be blown and blown and blown again! I dare you to wander outside your overly safe haven and go in quest of provocative curiosities. Halloween costume suggestions: mad scientist, wildeyed revolutionary, Dr. Who. ARIES (March 21-April 19): On a January morning in 1943, the town of Spearfish, South Dakota experienced very weird weather. At 7:30 a.m. the temperature was minus 4 degrees Fahrenheit. In the next two minutes, due to an unusual type of wind sweeping down over nearby Lookout Mountain, thermometers shot up 49 degrees. Over the next hour and a half, the air grew even warmer. But by 9:30, the temperature had plummeted back to minus 4 degrees. I’m wondering if your moods might swing with this much bounce in the coming weeks. As long as you keep in mind that no single feeling is likely to last very long, it doesn’t have to be a problem. You may even find a way to enjoy the breathtaking ebbs and flows. Halloween costume suggestion: roller coaster rider, Jekyll and Hyde, warm clothes on one side of your body and shorts or bathing suit on the other. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): How dare you be so magnetic and tempting? What were you thinking when you turned up the intensity of your charm to such a high level? I suggest you consider exercising more caution about expressing your radiance. People may have other things to do besides daydreaming about you. But if you
really can’t bring yourself to be a little less attractive—if you absolutely refuse to tone yourself down—please at least try to be extra kind and generous. Share your emotional wealth. Overflow with more than your usual allotments of blessings. Halloween costume suggestion: a shamanic Santa Claus; a witchy Easter Bunny.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): In the last ten days of November and the month of December, I suspect there will be wild-card interludes when you can enjoy smart gambles, daring stunts, cute tricks, and mythic escapades. But the next three weeks will not be like that. On the contrary. For the immediate future, I think you should be an upstanding citizen, a well-behaved helper, and a dutiful truth-teller. Can you handle that? If so, I bet you will get sneak peaks of the fun and productive mischief that could be yours in the last six weeks of 2015. Halloween costume suggestion: the most normal person in the world.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): Members of the gazelle species known as the springbok periodically engage in a behavior known as pronking. They leap into the air and propel themselves a great distance with all four feet off the ground, bounding around with abandon. What evolutionary purpose does this serve? Some scientists are puzzled, but not naturalist David Attenborough. In the documentary film Africa, he follows a springbok herd as it wanders through the desert for months, hoping to find a rare rainstorm. Finally it happens. As if in celebration, the springboks erupt with an outbreak of pronking. “They are dancing for joy,” Attenborough declares. Given the lucky breaks and creative breakthroughs coming your way, Cancerian, I foresee you doing something similar. Halloween costume suggestion: a pronking gazelle, a hippety-hopping bunny, a boisterous baby goat. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): “A very little key will open a very heavy door,” wrote Charles Dickens in his short story Hunted Down. Make that one of your guiding meditations in the coming days, Leo. In the back of your mind, keep visualizing the image of a little key opening a heavy door. Doing so will help ensure that you’ll be alert when clues about the real key’s location become available. You will have a keen intuitive sense of how you’ll need to respond if you want to procure it. Halloween costume suggestion: proud and protective possessor of a magic key.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): The ancient Hindu text known as the Kama Sutra gives extensive advice about many subjects, including love and sex. “Though a man loves a woman ever so much,” reads a passage in chapter four, “he never succeeds in winning her without a great deal of talking.” Take that as your cue, Virgo. In the coming weeks, stir up the intimacy you want with a great deal of incisive talking that beguiles and entertains. Furthermore, use the same approach to round up any other experience you yearn for. The way you play with language will be crucial in your efforts to fulfill your wishes. Luckily, I expect your persuasive powers to be even greater than they usually are. Halloween costume suggestion: the ultimate salesperson.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): I encourage you to be super rhythmical and melodious in the coming days. Don’t just sing in the shower and in the car. Hum and warble and whistle while shopping for vegetables and washing the dishes and walking the dog. Allot yourself more than enough time to shimmy and cavort, not just on the dance floor but anywhere else you can get away with it. For extra credit, experiment with lyrical flourishes whenever you’re in bed doing the jizzle-skazzle. Halloween costume suggestion: wandering troubadour, street musician, free-styling rapper, operatic diva, medicine woman who heals with sound.

TAKE ME HOME Renting Versus Buying in Bend By Corinne Boyer
37
Sheila Balyeat with Sotheby’s International Realty says talking to a professional and letting them run the numbers can help determine if its better to rent or buy. “It’s going to depend on every individual’s situation,” she says. “Even though prices are rising, interests rates are low and it could make more sense to buy.” Balyeat says that any realtor should be willing to calculate the costs. “When you’re looking at purchasing a
home, look at purchase price, how much the down payment is, the mortgage interest rate, home purchase cost, property taxes, homeowners insurance, and your annual home maintenance,” she says. If you only plan on owning a home for a year or two, Balyeat says buying may not be your best option. When renting, be sure to factor in what your monthly rent is going to be plus rent increases and renter’s insurance. She adds that the rental market in Bend is competitive and has a low vacancy rate: “There’s no stability in renting right now.” But if renting seems like the best way to go, Balyeat suggests talking to a property management company. “There are certain tax advantages to owning your own home that don’t come with renting,” she says.

BEND’S PREMIERE DOWNTOWN DISPENSARY
tmsbend@gmail.com
T
he Oregon Liquor Control Commission has cleared a few important hurdles in its process of regulating the new recreational cannabis industry. In anticipation of its January 4 deadline for accepting applications for commercial growers, processors, wholesalers, and retail outlets, OLCC has signed an agreement with NIC USA, Inc to build the online license application form. NIC is a well-regarded information service provider for federal and state governments based in Kansas. OLCC has also dotted the Is and crossed the Ts on its draft regulations, which were initially released two weeks ago. In a true slap in the face to college students throughout the state, OLCC has added dormitory to the list of prohibited delivery locations for cannabis. The remainder of the changes to the draft rules are less controversial, but now that the rules are in final draft form, they are worth a closer look. The rules provide for seed to sale tracking of all cannabis and tight security at all locations where cannabis is present. Everything cannabis-related that takes place at these businesses will be recorded on video and even outdoor grows must be shielded by a continuous solid wall or fence at least eight-feet high. In all, the rules are similar to those that already apply to medical marijuana grow sites and dispensaries, and there is even an opt-in provision for medical grow sites to become licensed as recreational cannabis producers.

Despite this, the draft rules allow for licensed recreational cannabis producers (not retailers, wholesalers, or processors) to offer tours to the over-21 general public. This will no doubt be a big lift for Oregon tourism, especially in places like Portland and Bend, where brewery and winery tours are common. The regulatory fees are steep, but no doubt reflect the anticipated revenues of these businesses. Licensing fees are $4,750 for processors, wholesalers, retailers, and laboratories. Licensing fees for producers are $3,750 for smaller grow operations (up to 5,000 square feet indoors or 20,000 square feet outdoors) and $5,750 for larger operations. These fees are annual and in addition to an annual $250 application or renewal fee. Applicants must also pay a criminal background check fee of $50 per person, and all owners or financiers
of the business must appear on the application. OLCC will charge $1,000 to review a proposed business-location move or change in-business-ownership. A business that wants OLCC preapproval of its packaging or labeling must pay $100. Cannabis handlers will also be required to obtain a license to work for these businesses. The license requires completion of a marijuana handler education course, which comes with a test at the end. The applicant also must pay a $100 fee, which is good for two years, and renewal is also $100. If approved, the handler must keep the license on their person at all times when at work, and—in order to ensure the complete corporatization of the Oregon cannabis industry—all employees “must wear clothing or a badge issued by the [business] that easily identifies the individual as an employee.” But the most interesting form of cannabis license issued by OLCC is not a business license at all. It is a license that allows scientists to conduct actual scientific research on cannabis. The license fee is $4,750 and it is good for three years. This is especially important because, as the Brookings Institution succinctly put it last week, “The federal government is stifling medical research in a rapidly transforming area of public policy that has consequences for public health and public safety.” And “stifling” is putting it mildly. The federal government has essentially prohibited meaningful scientific research on cannabis for over 40 years. Thanks to the federal government’s policy, even basic questions about how cannabis affects people have gone unanswered. For example, almost everyone agrees that there is a strong need to develop a simple test to determine when someone should not be allowed to drive or operate machinery. But there is some evidence that cannabis intoxication does not work like alcohol does, so that a test that works for a new cannabis user may not work for a habitual user. So how do we test if someone is OK to drive? Only if we do the scientific research necessary to figure it out. Oregon’s Marijuana Research Certificate could help break this logjam, and may bring new research money to places like OHSU. Meanwhile, Oregon Representative Earl Blumenauer continues to work in Congress to repeal the federal research ban.
