OPINION

Like Wards, City Council Pay is an Equity Issue

lot has been said—and continues to be said—about the notion of establishing wards within the city of Bend, allowing voters to elect city councilors who would represent their geographic region in the city.

We support the idea of a ward system, in the interest of equity in a city council that can—and historically has been—dominated by people of more affluent means, often from the west side. We believe that the remote possibility of “gerrymandering” the wards/districts to suit someone’s current political bias or ambition is not a strong enough reason to reject the ward system. But there’s another piece of the puzzle that is equally important in the interest of equity: councilor pay. While it might be hard to fathom for those who remember Bend as a small burg, but today, Bend clocks in with a population of 91,122 (in the figures released by the U.S. Census in 2016) putting it as the nation’s sixth-fastest growing city. Estimates from Portland State University’s Population Research Center project Bend will have a population of 132,209 by 2035—which very well could mean that in less than 20 years, we’ll be larger than the city of Beaverton, presently at about 96,000 residents. Just under us right now is Medford, at a population of close to 80,000 in the last census figures. At present, our city councilors, charged with dealing with the infrastructure, planning and logistical decision-making in the nation’s sixth-fastest growing city, are paid a stipend of $200 per month.

The City of Beaverton grew at a rate of 7.54 percent from 2010 to 2015. Bend, by comparison, grew at a rate of 13.54 percent during that time frame. Beaverton has five councilors, each receiving a monthly stipend of $1,600 per month, according to that city’s mayor’s office. Beaverton’s mayor is a full-time employee earning $14,749 per month. Medford, meanwhile, grew at a more modest 6.54 percent from 2010 to 2015. There, its nine councilors and the mayor are unpaid, and the town’s mayor continues to work his full-time job as an eye doctor, according to staff at the Medford mayor’s office. With more growth comes more need for strong leaders devoted to our most pressing issues, including transportation improvements, solving the housing crisis, sewer expansion and more. When a councilor is forced to juggle those tasks AND work a full-time job, it should be obvious why people of more limited means simply can’t see fit to run for office. So which do we want to be? Do we want to follow the city model of Beaverton, or the town model of Medford? It’s been 22 years since Bend reviewed its city charter. If we wait another 22 years to review the Bend charter once again, our population will be above 132,000. Let’s set the charter correctly now. It’s time to treat our councilors like the professionals we expect them to be—and at the same time, to pay them a stipend that allows people from various economic backgrounds to feasibly serve in these important civic positions.

5 VOLUME 21 ISSUE 44 / November 2, 2017 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

IN RESPONSE TO, “BRIDGE OVER TROUBLED WATER.” (10/26) In my 82 years, I never thought this nation would tolerate a neo-Nazi-white-supremacist supporter (advocate) to be the leader of our nation. Yes I recognize those types of individuals are unfortunately still present but feel they are uneducated or haven’t paid attention. I was a young kid at the end of World War II but understood, somewhat, and soon learned the awful truths that caused those conflicts. Maybe we have forgotten what happened some 70 years ago when so many gave their life to defeat these ideals? There are other current issues we are trying to deal with, climate change, human caused environmental degradation, economies and etc., but we must look back and hopefully not make mistakes twice. Thanks for the article, keep on keepin’ on. — Ted Winchel

IN RESPONSE TO, “YOU, TOO, CAN PLAY A ROLE IN WINTER SNOW REMOVAL.” (10/26)

Yes! Studs do more damage to roads. Get your car’s undercarriage washed after they use salt. — Susan Precht As long as the City publishes which roads are salted, daily, so that I can avoid driving on them. — Aaron Zielinski Low sodium diet please! Have lived in numerous states where salt is used and cars rust out way before their time. — Marleen McLennan Limited salt. Bend has the most dangerous winter streets I have seen. There should be more plowing but also salt in extreme icy conditions. — Carisa Battin

AS THE HOLIDAY SEASON APPROACHES: TO BE OR NOT TO BE COERCED INTO FUNDRAISING? As the holiday season draws near, we have entered the season of, as I call it, “coercive fundraising.” By this I mean, the experience we have all had—of arriving at the supermarket checkout and being asked in a loud voice—if we would like to “round up” for Doernbecher (Children’s Hospital) or buy a coupon for holiday meal bucks or to buy a bag of holiday cheer for a local family in need or to add a few bucks to my credit card bill to support hurricane relief, local hunger, etc.

Awesome squad all decked out at the Worthy party. Thanks a ton, we had a blast as well! @plantaehealth

Here I am, surrounded by strangers, being asked to be a good person or, what? Say “no” and everyone else in line thinks I’m a selfish creep? Or cave in and agree to whatever, to avoid looking like a selfish creep to everyone else in line. Now, all of these causes are most likely worthwhile, but I do resent that I am being publicly—and often loudly— pressured to kick in for a cause to which, in many instances, I have already given money. The problem I have with these programs is that I do not know where, or even if, my few cents gets to the people they benefit. Every year, we are cautioned, by such organizations as Charity Navigator, to be cautious about to whom we give money. There are lots of scams out there. And when I buy a bag of groceries for a local family in need, does the supermarket provide the groceries at wholesale or at retail? If the latter, the “coercive fundraising” to which I have just been subjected is as much to benefit the supermarket as it is to benefit the family in need. Again, the problem is, I just don’t know. There is no discussion that I know of on the effectiveness of these programs and any sort of oversight. It seems to me to be a question that some eager young reporter might pursue, since it is a situation that we all face every time we go to the supermarket. Maybe interview the managers of some supermarkets and talk with the corporations that own them? If anyone out there has concrete information on the above questions, please let us all know.

We all want to help those less fortunate, and at this time of year, even more. But I would like some reassurance that what we are asked to give, and the cumulatively large amount that we all are pressured to give, actually does go to help those who are deserving. Thank you. — Jim Mahoney

IN RESPONSE TO, “#ME TOO” (10/26) In the recent article by Annette Benedetti I noticed only one small reference— in parentheses—that acknowledges men as victims of sexual exploitation (and non binary). My hope is that their needs are equally addressed in any movement. I think it more pervasive than is recognized in society. In my own small life experience, I know personally of a young boy and his three sisters being assaulted by their babysitter, three boys sexually abused by their uncle for years, four children in the place I grew up, two girls and two boys being repeatedly raped by their stepfather for years before any intervention by the law. I feel encouraged by the growing acknowledgement of the issue of sexual exploitation and hope to see an inclusive approach identified for this ancient cultural issue. And yes. Me too. — Pat Homeyer

he quintessential elements of Bend’s governance—mayors, city council members and pay— are ruled by the City of Bend Charter, last reviewed more than 22 years ago when the City had around 30,000 residents. On Oct. 24, the citizen committee established to review the charter suggested the city divide into geographical sections—or wards. The 10-person committee is deciding between a three- or four-ward system, to be decided during two meetings before Dec. 4. “A lot of the conversation was around what are the ‘lenses’ through which councilors view the issues facing the city,” says City Councilor Bruce Abernethy, a liaison for the citizen committee. The committee also contemplated electing a mayor— for a yet undecided two- or four-year term—which may include a pay raise. Currently, councilors and the mayor earn a $200 monthly stipend. The committee also agreed to limit the elected mayor’s powers, suggesting the mayor should not be able to veto City Council decisions, for example. “From last review, we’ve gone from 30,000 to a mid-sized city of 87,000,” said Don Leonard, president of the Boyd Acres Neighborhood Association and member of the citizen panel. Richard Ross is a member of the panel that recommended the City review its charter. With his 30 years of experience in community planning and 15 years as staff support to two Gresham mayors, Ross says the

issues are different now. “Bend is facing more complex problems than the good old days,” he said. Splitting the Difference: Wards Most of Oregon’s 10 largest cities elect councilors from geographically divided wards. Some locals have voiced concerns that Bend’s growing east side is underrepresented on the current Council. Only two of seven councilors— Barb Campbell and Justin Livingston— live east of Third Street. “We aren’t necessarily trying to model ourselves after a particular city, since most have had their systems in place for decades,” says Citizen Committee Co-Chair Bill Galaway. “We wanted to look at comparable communities with strong city managers and mayor councilors.” Galaway, who lives on Bend’s southeast side, says he sees firsthand the city’s inattentiveness. “We’re in areas where sewers still haven’t been put in, county roads that are crumbling.” Galaway says he doesn’t think, “current council members really have the bandwidth to go out, get out and understand parts of the city they are unfamiliar with.” Wards, he argues, would change that. Medford, with a population of over 81,000 and Hillsboro, at roughly 105,000, elect councilors from ward systems. Medford has four wards, with two city councilors elected from each. Hillsboro has three wards, electing two councilors from each. Both cities stagger the four year terms for councilors, which some experts say brings stability to the council. Hillsboro allows the entire city to vote across the ward system; Medford doesn’t. “I personally go back and forth on how to do it,” says Galaway, noting that if Bend moved to a three- or four-ward system, it would have approximately 20,000 to 30,000 residents in each ward. “If we stay true to national polling numbers and only 50 percent vote, or are eligible to vote, than it comes down to a pool of about 15,000 or even less. You may have a less than desirable candidate.” Eugene is the state’s third largest city, according to U.S. Census data released in 2016, at approximately 166,000 residents. It has eight wards with approximately 20,000 residents each, giving residents access to representatives who can vocalize specific issues. Galaway also points out that contrary to an Oct. 15 Bend Bulletin editorial stating wards could open themselves up to “gerrymandering,” the Oregon State legislature has specific rules on how boundaries are set. Cities are “not

allowed to set rules on where incumbents live, party affiliations, you can’t break up neighborhood where they have significant population of minorities and so on,” he says. The proposed ward maps were generated and obtained from the City of Bend. Electing a Mayor, and For How Long? “Being mayor is a tough job–it takes a lot of time and emotional energy,” says Abernethy, who served as Bend’s mayor in 2007 and 2008, and is supportive of a two-year program rather than four years. “It’s asking a lot for someone to sign up for four years without very much compensation.” He adds that for those worrying that electing a mayor every two years would continue the pendulum swing of the City between Democrats and Republicans, “My hope is there will be an incentive to have that person move to the middle and be acceptable and supported by the 'silent middle”'majority.” Both men add that the current mayoral pay rate encourages, as Galaway says, the position to be taken up “by the indecently wealthy or retired.” Abernethy, whose views on pay have changed over the years, says he’s supportive of an increased pay for mayor and ambivalent for increased council pay. “The scope of the job has increased significantly in recent years…(but) in all instances, that decision of how much compensation is appropriate should be determined by an independent third party.” Galoway says the citizen committee has contemplated taking the pay rate out of the Charter completely. “One idea was for us to take the median annual salary in Bend and divide that by 50 percent and pay the mayor a part-time rate such as that….but it makes more sense for it to be taken out completely and then City Staff can perhaps deem what is appropriate.” An elected mayor would do little to change the power dynamic. The city manager would still run the day-to-day operations, prepare biennium budgets and regulate city staff and departments. The mayor would be responsible for appointing citizen committees, approved by other city councilors. If a councilor seat became vacant it would go to a vote, rather than being appointed by the mayor. Galaway notes this is in line with the current thinking that the mayor is meant to be the “strategic visionary for the city,” while the city manager “implements the details.” The recommendations, if approved, would be on the local ballot in May 2018.

My mother wants a one-lane lap pool. We talk about this often. She wants for us to dig the hole in her backyard together— we understand one other when we use our bodies. We would shovel out the earth until our arms ache, our shoulders paralyzed with the strain of repetitious movement, line it with stone, labor, then fill it with water. 2. Long after the swallows fly south and the milkweed’s soft leaves begin to shrivel into crunchy cocoons, and the monarchs dwindle to the last few castaways hiding in the tall silvery grasses the winds pick up from the north and east. After summer fades into longer shadows and the apples are harvested from her trees, she will have to construct a tent-bubble to encase her dream pool— “If I had a small pool in my yard, I would swim twice, maybe 3 times a day,” my mother whispers— We understand the world better when we are moving. “I would like that.” I nodded, yes.

the microwave told me she was becoming nauseous from too much radiation, and could i please roll her a nice joint. while rolling, i peeked at the peaches, who wrinkled and turned. mirror, mirror is it me that’s turned and wrinkling away. what would an eye see inside the pit of the pithiest fruit. (the heart of the heart). on the wall i’ve written everything: i long to hear the mango’s orange tang on the tongue. who is made of stars (blinks us) and stars are made of meat. we like to eat big hunks out of each other. the fairest mouth might taste of fruit. berried and soft. one of the people excreted his soul. (didn’t sell it to devils (didn’t deliver it to gods)) let it shine inside the microwave, settling in her bones. all the fruit wore time into foul juice and time wore fruit into night. i pulled the plug on the microwave (because things were getting out of hand). the beauty slept on another day. when the people found her, they raised their red apple, now a gun. she stared and sighed, how uninventive, they’d lost the wonder of their evil.

Stream

Meli Broderick Eaton There is a process by which water disappears when we are not looking they say it flies weightless through our sky then falls back to earth heavy and new. One hot summer afternoon we followed a mountain stream to see what boulder birthed it what stone was responsible for this. Oh, sacred spot where lusty gush poured from beneath the earth as though the planet were a pitcher tipped just enough this way and we were satisfied.

Miles later where the water flattens quiets runs wide to fill an alpine bowl waiting with hard open hands we slid bare feet through the cold savored the late blue release when earth gives back heat taken from the day crickets sing from deep in meadow grass when the dusky remains of light become ashes to mountain dust to lake.

St. Thomas SOUND Rebuilding Larry and His Flask drummer Jamin Marshall spearheads a benefit concert to raise money for residents of the Virgin Islands affected by Hurricanes Irma and Maria

WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / November 2, 2017 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

By Anne Pick

bout three years ago, when Bend band Larry and His Flask decided to go on hiatus, co-founder Jamin Marshall gave up Beer Town, USA, for sunshine and ocean life. Marshall moved to St. Thomas, where his girlfriend Victoria Odinet had been living and working on boats. Marshall and Odinet have been living in St. Thomas since then. Fortunately, when Hurricanes Irma and Maria hit, Marshall and Odinet had already left the small island. The two spent the summer in Canada, where Marshall is a dual citizen. As cliché as it sounds, timing is everything. Odinet had been working at the sailing center in St. Thomas when her friend offered her a job in Denver. That same week, the sailing center and the home Marshall and Odinet rented were destroyed by Irma. Marshall says they had been planning on eventually moving to Canada, so had brought important documents, as well as their dogs, Beebop and Rocksteady. Marshall says they didn’t have anything to go back to. “The people who did leave, that implies that they had enough money to leave and could have some sort of support in the States,” Marshall says.

“Unfortunately, there are a lot of poor people there and they’re stuck. They need water, food, tarps for their roofs, it’s been an unfortunate set of events. Irma came and ripped the roofs off, then Maria dumped water in. Now everything is damaged and soaked. Everything is covered in mold.” Marshall couldn’t sit idly by. “I wanted to get them water and food somehow. A couple of my friends own a boat and make their own pizza on it. It’s really neat. They were buying supplies in Puerto Rico prior to Maria. They were bringing water and food, taking people to Puerto Rico. When the second one (hurricane) hit, their whole operation became overworked. Now, they’re looking for other people to help. My friend put up a GoFundMe.” Marshall and the Larry and His Flask boys decided to plan a benefit concert and donate all of the proceeds to their friend’s campaign. Marshall’s friend Scott Kosmach will use the funds to buy a shipping container filled with water, food, tarps and solar-powered chargers for phones. “A lot of the other island nations that don’t have big countries backing them are even worse off,” Marshall says. “We

can’t make a huge impact, but we can help a little bit. We can get people drinkable water and tarps. Because right now it’s really hot and it hasn’t been raining lately, no power, no air conditioning. One of our good friends there, as a big treat, said they ran the generator a little longer than usual one night and watched a movie.” The Virgin Islands Benefit Concert at The Capitol will also include Mosley Wotta, The Hot Club of Bend (which

includes Marshall’s brother Jeshua, also a member of LAHF) and Kelcey Lassen Canfield. SW Virgin Islands Benefit Concert Thurs., Nov. 2. 6pm. The Capitol 190 NW Oregon Ave., Bend. By donation. Donate at: gofundme.com/IrmaMaria

Robinson in the House

Emily Scott Robinson, playing at a local House Concert series, talks about landing on a Spotify playlist and refining her craft as a songwriter By Anne Pick People are more likely to recommend your music to friends.” On the flip side, instead of buying records and digital downloads, people are streaming their music, and with services such as Spotify and Apple Music, the payoffs are much lower. Robinson performs in Bend as part of the Songwriter Series, a house concert experience that includes a “Meet and Greet” with the artist. According to the series’ website, the concerts, which take place at a home in the Awbrey Butte area, are organized by John M. Cook and Jimmie Cook. “I wrote my first song when I was 19 and it was a flash of inspiration that I got and it came out pretty fully formed,” Robinson says. “Then, I didn’t finish another until I was 26.” When her first song came easily and the others didn’t, Robinson began to refine her craft. She went to a week-long songwriters’ retreat. She sat in with people who love writing. “Sitting in circles with other songwriters, I learned to not be afraid to

Travers Mitchell

discovered the music of Emily Scott Robinson while listening to the “Vintage Vibes” playlist on Spotify. The tagline of the playlist, “Old makes New,” doesn’t necessarily tell you what to expect. Robinson and others on the playlist display a variety of styles, but lean toward folk and old-school country. Robinson brands her style of roots music as “Southern Gothic Folk.” “Nobody really know how the Spotify world works,” Robinson says. “You can’t submit a bid to be on a playlist. I had just gotten verified and the song that’s on the playlist (“Marriage Ain’t the End of Being Lonely”) had through the roof numbers compared to my other songs. I figured it must have landed on a playlist somewhere. “I try to look at the bright side of them (streaming services). I think that they really make it possible for me to get my music out in the world. Typically, in the old model, people who discover me because we promoted the show really well, they might hear me on the radio. Now, I can reach people via sharing through social media.

write a song that sucks. Write through it—it’s valuable to move you along in your process.” Things have since improved for Robinson. In 2015, she won first place and a Gibson guitar in the “American Songwriter” May/June Lyric Contest. In 2016, she won the Kerrville Folk Festival New Folk competition. Robinson was also named a winner of the 2017 Wildflower Festival Performing Songwriter Contest. Robinson currently lives with her husband, a rock climber, in a motorhome traveling the country, and is in

the writing and pre-production phase for her next album. She plans to follow up her debut album, “Magnolia Queen,” with “Traveling Mercies,” to be recorded in Nashville in January. This will be her first fully-produced album and she can’t wait to get in the studio. SW Emily Scott Robinson

Service to Community

This Veteran’s Day, one local family shows what it means to serve, through the Eagle Scouts, the U.S. military and more. Photo and words by Richard Sitts Mountain Rescue Team. Danny says his wife, Laurel, was at times a “search and rescue orphan,” as Chuck was often called out on rescues. After retiring from a banking career at the age of 68, Chuck completed nursing school and became a registered nurse. He’s also a World War II veteran, having served in the Pacific Theater, and was in the Navy Reserves for 20 years. He also achieved the rank of captain as a first aid instructor for the Red Cross. And one more thing, Chuck also is an honorary member of the Deschutes County Search and Rescue Team. As the family patriarch, Chuck has set the example of “service to the community,” Danny says, adding that he’s proud that son Jesse is continuing the tradition. Jessie says he gratefully accepted advice from grandfather Chuck. “He was definitely one of my inspirations to finish Eagle.” When asked what that advice was, Chuck smiles slightly and replies, “Get it done.” “It means a lot to me, especially since grandpa is 91 years old and he doesn’t travel a lot anymore.” During his Eagle Court interview, Jesse told scout leaders that he wanted to achieve Eagle because his grandfather was an Eagle Scout who would be in attendance to present Jesse the award. The merit badges Jesse says he especially appreciated were for lifesaving, communication, rifle shooting, aviation, and environmental science—that last one requiring “a lot of essays.” Throughout the five years of his work toward Eagle Scout, Jesse says he also enjoyed the “high adventure trips,”

including rafting down the Columbia River and camping out about 100 nights. Growing up in New York City, father Danny says he did not have the scouting opportunity. “I was a cement jungle kid.” He spent most of his career working as a business lawyer in Southern California before he and wife, Laurel, moved to Bend when Jesse was seven years old. “I really wanted to be a part of this community and I wanted to be a role model for Jesse to work to make where you live a better place to live.” Danny is now semi-retired, with a long list of volunteer experiences ranging from the Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office Search and Rescue, to the Bend Police Department Citizens Academy, to serving as chairman of the Bend Park and Recreation District Board of Directors, to the Tower Theater Foundation Board of Directors. “I’m a late bloomer and I’m trying to make up for lost time,” Danny says. Upon graduation from high school, Jesse plans on college, joining the Navy Medical Corps and eventually becoming a doctor. He says he wants to follow

in Chuck’s military footsteps. “Grandpa definitely inspired me.” As a child, Jessie says he would wake up in the morning and instead of watching cartoons, he’d watch documentaries on the Battle of Iwo Jima. Eagle Scouts who join the military are automatically raised one rank and pay grade, according to Jesse. In the Court of Honor printed program, the Fishkin family gave special thanks to past and present Scoutmasters Gary Moss, Marc Gedde and Chris Henningsen. And just to prove that he practically never stands still, following the events, Jesse had just enough time to high-tail it up to Summit High School to act in that evening’s performance of “Macbeth.” SW Want to give back to veterans this Veterans Day? The local American Red Cross is accepting donations of toiletry items for homeless vets and veterans’ hospitals. Bring toiletries such as toothbrushes, soap, shampoo, gloves, hats, etc. to the Red Cross office in Bend or at Mid Oregon Credit Unions in Central Oregon through Nov. 6.

Susan Porteous: Small and mighty works Artist Profile

n a recent, quiet Monday afternoon, Susan Porteous, a local sculptor, letterpress printer and bookmaker, was busy working at the large shared table at The Workhouse on Scott Street, where her studio is located. A woman strolling through and enjoying her latte from Sparrow Bakery stopped upon seeing Susan’s work and asked her if she could fix the old, tattered and muchloved Bible she carried with her. Susan couldn’t, but instead, she delicately took the precious book and created a leather cover and wrap to keep it protected. The woman gladly waited the hour it took Porteous to make the book cover. This is Porteous’s superpower: sweet, delicate and much loved items

that connect you to the things you probably already deeply love. Originally from Sheffield, England, Porteous moved to Bend in 2014 with her husband, who she met during a year-abroad program at Arizona State while working toward her Bachelor of Fine Arts at the University of Leeds in England. After returning to the U.S., she earned her Master of Fine Arts at California State University, where she focused on book-binding and paper-making. Using traditional letterpress technology, Porteous works on two letterpress machines, combining the old with the new. This summer she acquired a second, larger letterpress that allows her to work on larger scale items. But it is in the small and sublime that you

will truly understand her perspective, from tiny wearable journals to note cards and coasters that feature her love of what she calls, “minimal, modern and geeky.” As the holiday shopping season approaches, Porteous is getting excited by the prospect of the new "Stars Wars" figures she can incorporate into new designs, combining a traditional approach to design with a modern and sci-fi twist. If you’re a lover of clean lines and "Game of Thrones," Porteous is the artist for you. SW Susan Porteous

or this family, the practice of service to community runs strong. Three generations of volunteering and giving back came together in Bend this past weekend. The occasion was the Eagle Scout Court of Honor for Jesse Fishkin, 17, a member of local Boy Scout Troop 25 and a senior at Summit High School. Jessie joined the two percent of Boy Scouts to achieve the esteemed rank of Eagle Scout, earning a total of 31 merit badges—10 more than required. Jesse’s Eagle Scout project brought attention to the crime of human trafficking. He worked with Soroptimist International of Bend to produce the project, “Shadows of Hope,” featuring wooden cutouts of human figures, painted black. The silhouettes of six adults and two children were placed at various locations around Bend. Once he got into the hard reality of the subject matter, Jessie says the project became less about becoming an Eagle Scout and more about the tragedy of human trafficking and the need to bring it out of the shadows. During the Eagle Scout ceremony this past Saturday afternoon at the First Presbyterian Church in Bend, Jessie was presented his honor by a special guest: his 91-year-old grandfather, Chuck Ballard, who lives in Southern California. Chuck earned his own Eagle Scout rank in 1944. “We told Chuck several months ago that he should clear his busy social calendar,” says Danny Fishkin, Jesse’s father and Chuck’s son-in-law. Chuck has earned a Lifetime Achievement Award for his five decades of volunteer service with the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department and the Altadena

CULTURE

Birth, the Play

A production at COCC sheds light on the “traumatic and beautiful” experience of bringing new life by Annette Benedetti

"Birth's" cast is diverse... Some actors are stepping on stage for the first time, others have vast experience. Many have given birth, others haven't. “It was a little scary when people who are in the field of theater weren’t interested in this project,” says O’Connor. Then she did what she tells the women she counsels to do: reached out to her community of mothers for support. There she found the play’s director, Marieka Greene. “‘Birth’s’ script reminds me of ‘The

tion, Planned Parenthood and just about any “how to be a human” handbook.” Actor Kristin Tone studied classical theater at the British American Drama Academy in London but eventually pursued a career in finance. At 44 she’s back on stage for the first time. Tone says she’s not sure what drew her to audition for a part in “Birth.”

“Endurance” by Scott Kelly Interest in space is back in a big way. “Astrophysics For People In a Hurry” has been a bestseller all year. There was that little eclipse thing this summer, and now we have this from Kelly, the American holding the record for consecutive days in space. A middling student who decided to be an astronaut after reading Tom Wolfe’s “The Right Stuff,” Kelly tells readers about his formative years and his time aboard the International Space Station. It’s the closest most of us will ever get to outer space, and it’s a fascinating rocket ride there.

The women of "Birth" are out to create more than just a monologue.

“The reasons we feel compelled to do things often reveal themselves after the fact,” explains Tone. “This is an important play. It has asked me to examine my relationship to my body, my children’s births and societal attitudes that I buy into regarding birth and women.” “Birth” is showing during Bend’s first multi-event celebration and exploration of pregnancy and birth: Birth Awareness Week of Central Oregon. “Pushing one type of birth as ‘the best’ is not part of this play,” says Greene. “There are all types of birth and they are all important.” O’Connor echoes Greene’s sentiment. “This is not about natural births versus hospital births,” she says. “This

is a feminist movement. We are a group of individuals who are talking about and shedding light onto some of the ways in which our culture is letting women down.” SW “Birth”

By Tom Beans, Dudley’s Bookshop Cafe “Grant” by Ron Chernow While I don’t think this one will inspire a world-famous musical like his book, “Alexander Hamilton,” the award-winning Chernow has written a fascinating book about another pivotal figure in American history. Grant’s life was filled with equal parts triumph and tragedy. New York Times critic Janet Maslin said about “Grant” that “Books of its caliber by writers of Chernow’s stature are rare, and this one qualifies as a major event.”

“Leonardo da Vinci” by Walter Isaacson In a recent Forbes interview, Isaacson said, “The theme of all my books is that true creativity and innovation comes from being able to stand at the intersection of art and science. Leonardo da Vinci is history’s ultimate example of combining art and science. That’s what made him history’s greatest genius.” SW

Vagina Monologues,’” says Greene, who has both acted in and directed playwright Eve Ensler’s work. Like “The Vagina Monologues,” “Birth” is based on interviews with a variety of women and seeks to amplify their voices. According to Greene, “Birth’s” cast is diverse in both stage and birthing experience. Some actors are stepping on stage for the first time. Others have vast experience. Many have given birth, others haven’t. Kimberly Leemans spent the last 10 years working in the television and film industry. The actor is known for her roles in “The Walking Dead,” “The Vampire Diaries” and “Nashville.” Leemans says when she read “Birth’s” script, the stories moved her and she wondered why more people aren’t speaking openly about those traumatic and beautiful experiences. “I learned more about labor and delivery from doing this play then I have in my 30 years of life,” says Leemans. “Every woman should see this show. This should be part of sex educa-

“W

hen a woman steps into a birthing environment and does not feel safe, we are letting her down. When a woman steps into a birthing environment and has to fight for her health care practitioners to honor her body’s wisdom, we are letting her down,” says Shanti O’Connor, a local producer bringing “Birth,” a play by BOLD founder and playwright Karen Brody, to Bend beginning Nov. 9. “This play is about women giving women a voice, and…all the ways in which women birth themselves into motherhood.” O’Connor is also a nationally-certified counselor and Reiki master, and runs women’s circles and retreats through her business Rooted & Open. She believes giving birth is one of the most transformational events in a woman’s life and says she joyfully leaped at the idea of bringing “Birth” to Bend. O’Connor’s enthusiasm wasn’t immediately shared. She reached out to the local theaters and improv community for help, but says no one responded.

he concept of a farmhouse or estate brewery isn’t new—places such as Logsdon in Hood River, Wolves and People in Newberg and Agrarian Ales in Eugene are local examples. In this region of the U.S., however, Finnriver— whose ciders and fruit wines have been available in Bend for several years— takes the cake in sheer atmosphere. Finnriver is located in Chimacum, Wash., a community on the Olympic Peninsula that’s a ferry ride and about an hour’s drive west of Seattle. It’s primarily an agricultural region, with three large wooden cows greeting motorists as they roll along Washington State Route 19, bordered by the majestic Olympic Mountains seemingly on all sides. The land Finnriver’s on has been farmed since the 19th century, and the founders were regulars at the farmers market in nearby Port Townsend before getting into craft cider in 2008. Upon arriving, visitors are instantly rewarded with a feast for the eyes. Most of the farm is wide-open for browsing around, with an expansive lawn area offering lovely views of the mountains. A self-guided tour of the complex is available, letting people check out the sheep, the grain fields, and the long rows of apple trees that produce much of the cidery’s raw ingredients. There’s a ton of covered outdoor table space, as well as a smaller indoor bar offering both draft pours and a guided tour of six different beverages for $7.

Washington, as well as Victoria Island across the border in Canada, is rife with cideries, from big outfits such as Seattle Cider and Schilling to tiny Westcott Bay Cider, located way out on the far end of San Juan Island. In addition to being located in a beautiful place, however, Finnriver sticks out from the crowd thanks to the awesome variety it provides. Sure, they’ve got all the traditional sweet and semi-sweet types, along with a Spanish-style “Sidra” which is fermented out in the open to give it a trademark pungent acetic nose. But they don’t stop there. The Dry Hopped Cider mixes a bright, dry cider with citrus notes provided by Cascade hops— no hoppy bitterness, just a lot of floral notes that pair perfectly with the cider. The Crew Selection series, available only at the cidery itself, includes original, inspired creations including a lambicstyle cider infused with cherries. Then there are the wines, made with apples, pears, raspberries and more, and usually clocking in at 18 percent alcohol by volume—great for winters by the fire. If you’re traveling around the Peninsula and looking for a unique experience, Finnriver has it all—great cider, great views, and a great way to spend the afternoon. SW Finnriver Farm & Cidery

Next Big Thing in Coffee?

LITTLE BITES By Lisa Sipe

Local company claims to be the best instant coffee in the world by Lisa Sipe

Creating the Perfect Cup of Instant To create a great cup of instant, Sheridan started with what he believes is a perfect cup of coffee. He had to figure out how to preserve the coffee so when it was rehydrated it tasted the same. Sheridan found a process, which includes freeze-drying, that he says works. With this new discovery, the next step was bringing it to market. Sheridan started a Kickstarter campaign to raise the $27,000 he needed. To successfully fund a Kickstarter campaign, the project needs to meet the monetary goal—and with the help of locals and people from around the world, Voilà, he hit that goal. Then There Were Two After the Kickstarter, Sheridan met Nick Holmboe, a Bend native with experience in food and restaurant management and a strong culinary background. Sheridan invited Holmboe to a “coffee cupping.” For those of us not steeped in the coffee world, that means they intensely sniffed brewed coffee and loudly slurped so the coffee would

They discussed mouthfeel, flavor and aftertaste of different coffees. Sheridan discovered Holmboe had a sophisticated palate and could pick up the flavor and tasting notes in coffee like Sheridan could, so he asked Holmboe to join Voilà as co-founder. What does it taste like? “It’s the best instant coffee in the world,” claims Sheridan. I wish I could tell you this was true. They told me I would get a sample, but when I interviewed Sheridan and Holmboe they didn’t bring it. I did witness a panel of venture capitalists taste it at the Bend Venture Conference and they seemed to like it. I also know Voilà has received funding from the vice president of Stumptown Coffee Roasters, so I’d like to think taste had something to do with it. Still, we don’t have long before we can decide for ourselves. Voilà will be

Then it’s delivered to your door each month. Initially Voilà will be featuring coffees from five different local roasters, and its founders expect to expand to include more over time. When do you use instant coffee? The point of instant is so we can have coffee anytime, anywhere. But convenience and taste aren’t cheap; you’ll pay the same price per cup as you would stopping at the coffee shop: $4 per cup. Voilà will be sold locally at Market of Choice, Backporch Coffee Roasters and Companion Coffee. SW Voilà Coffee Voilà.Coffee

Michele Morris has worked for world champion chefs in Las Vegas and taught at the college level for over nine years. She’s helped many students follow their dreams to become successful professional chefs. Now it’s her mission to get kids and adults excited about cooking with hands-on cooking classes. Morris’ space, Kindred Creative Kitchen, has helped kids learn to make bread, introduced them to Italian cuisine and has shown them the art and science of making candies. But Morris wants to do more. She’s been constrained by the space and equipment in the commercial spaces she’s rented, so she’s building a brick and mortar kitchen where Kindred Creative Kitchen can teach more kids and adults the joy of cooking. She’s self funded the majority of the project, but now needs help from the community. She started a crowdfunding campaign on Kickstarter and hopes to raise the $10,000 she needs to finish the kitchen. If you’re interested in backing the project, you’ll find incentives including a day at a kids’ cooking camp or an adult cooking class. It’s also a way to pre-pay for things including a chocolate truffle workshop or an introduction to French pastries, if you’re interested in having a private cooking school in our community. Kindred Creative Kitchen will only receive the Kickstarter money if the project reaches its goal by Nov. 11. SW Kindred Creative Kitchen

nce upon a time, Kent Sheridan couldn’t find a decent cup of instant on the market. At the time, besides the basic instant brands such as Folgers or Taster’s Choice, there was only Starbucks VIA. Sheridan is something of a coffee snob—someone who weighs his coffee, grinds it to the perfect coarseness, makes sure the filtered water temperature is 30 seconds off the boil and knows that the first pour is known as the “bloom pour.” He’s the person who brings his specialty coffee equipment camping, waking early to brew the perfect cup. The problem was, he couldn’t brew the perfect cup outdoors, because it never tasted as good as it did when he made it at home. So he set out to create an instant coffee called Voilà, aiming for something so good it could compare to the pour over from your favorite coffeehouse. Sheridan believes the next big trend in specialty coffee will be in the instant market.

vehicle sees him starring in what appears to be a cross between “Air America” and “War Dogs.” He plays a pilot that gets in way over his head with the CIA and running guns and drugs. Cruise is having a rough year in terms of the quality of his films and box office presence, so hopefully “American Made” gets him back on track for making quality films with interesting directors. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

BLADE RUNNER 2049: There is no world

in which the sequel to a 35-year-old cult classic should be so mesmerizing and beautiful to look at, but here we are. Harrison Ford reprises his role as Rick Deckard and joins Ryan Gosling in this complex and exciting look at memory, identity and what really constitutes humanity. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

BREATHE: Here's Andrew Garfield going for the same kind of Oscar that Eddie Redmayne got for doing “The Theory of Everything.” Garfield plays a young man who gets polio and becomes paralyzed from the neck down. It looks life affirming, uplifting and cheesy as hell. Sisters Movie House BOO 2! A MADEA HALLOWEEN: The

Madea movies consistently make a profit and keep Tyler Perry a household name. His most famous creation once again tackles current hot-button topics such as misogyny and marriage while also fighting demons and monsters. Not sure if that's true, but it's fun to assume. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

THE FOREIGNER: This is definitely not your

typical Jackie Chan movie, with the badass action hero playing a grieving father searching for the terrorists who blew up his daughter. While he still has a few action scenes, “The Foreigner” sees Chan giving a serious performance with none of his usual goofy mugging. The film is more of a political thriller than an action movie, so expecting that before going in will keep the disappointment in check. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Redmond Cinema

GEOSTORM: Cloudy with a Chance of Geostorm. #SorryNotSorry.Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Redmond Cinema

HAPPY DEATH DAY: It seems like a concept that should have been ripped off already, but “Happy Death Day” takes the concept of “Groundhog Day” and puts it square in the middle of the slasher genre. While the movie has a few fun moments, it's also incredibly stupid and relies on a few twists that make little to no sense. Still, it's pretty entertaining. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Redmond Cinema IT: You'll love the latest and greatest adaptation of

Stephen King's epic horror extravaganza, “IT.” The film focuses on a group of middle school outcasts who have to fight against an ageless demonic presence that manifests itself as a horrifying clown named Pennywise. Genuine fun horror flick for all ages. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

JIGSAW: The eighth film in the “Saw” franchise

sees the return of the Jigsaw killer, who has been dead for over a decade. Will the police discover Jigsaw's game before more victims are torn to shreds, or will everything go as planned so we get “Saw” movies every Halloween until the end of time? Either way, blood will be spilled. See full review on p27. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Redmond Cinema

KINGSMAN: THE GOLDEN CIRCLE:

There's nothing like a sequel to a surprisingly good movie to remove all goodwill for the original. At 141 minutes long, “The Golden Circle” has plenty of opportunities to prove that it's as good as the first one, but is ultimately so overstuffed that it feels like a tonally schizophrenic mess. Better luck next time. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

THE LEGO NINJAGO MOVIE: I'd like to

assume there's more to this than just ninjas and

legos, but the trailers don't make much of a case for that. Featuring a voice cast including Jackie Chan, Abbi Jacobson, Kumail Nanjiani and Fred Armisen, it should at least be a pleasure to listen to, even if none of it makes any sense. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

LUCKY: In the dearly departed Harry Dean Stanton's swan song, “Lucky” tells the story of an aging atheist who goes on a journey of self-discovery as he searches for enlightenment. This one is not to be missed. Tin Pan Theater, Sisters Movie House MARSHALL: This tells the story of a young

Thurgood Marshall while he was working for the NAACP. Chadwick Boseman has made a career playing real life heroes, so he's in his wheelhouse here. This should be a powerful and illuminating film. Sisters Movie House.

THE MOUNTAIN BETWEEN US: The trailers

make “The Mountain Between Us” look like an exciting survival thriller along the lines of “Alive,” but reviews seem to suggest that the film is actually a romance set against the backdrop of certain death. That sounds like “Titanic,” which is pretty exciting since the whole “We're Gonna Freeze To Death Unless We Spoon” genre really needs another strong entry. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

MY LITTLE PONY: The Movie: “My Little Pony:

Friendship is Magic” is a pretty delightful animated series that has legions of fans, both children and adult. If the movie keeps the heart of the show firmly intact, then children, their parents and Bronies across the world should have a wonderful time. Redmond Cinema

ONLY THE BRAVE: This is being hailed as the

finest firefighter movie since “Backdraft.” The true story of the Granite Mountain Hotshots is such a tragic and awful one that this movie is guaranteed to be a tearjerker of the highest order. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House

THE SNOWMAN: This has to be the first time

in history in which a film's director has told the press (before his new movie opens) that he wasn't able to film 10 to 15 percent of the script. What does that even look like? We should all be very excited to find out together. Poor Michael Fassbender. He deserves a good movie soon. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

SUBURBICON: Matt Damon stars in this Sub-

urban Noir/morality play about the dark underbelly of a typical all-white neighborhood. While the talent behind the camera (George Clooney) and script (the Coen Bros.) is undeniable, the film doesn't work on any level whatsoever. The message of the film is good, but the execution is fatally flawed. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

TAKE EVERY WAVE: The Life of Laird Ham-

ilton: This documentary from celebrated director Rory Kennedy follows legendary big wave rider Laird Hamilton through his career and life. The film is filled with some of the most beautifully captured surfing footage since “Endless Summer.” Tin Pan Theater

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE: Miles

Teller once again wades into the waters of real life heroism, playing a soldier returned home from war dealing with PTSD. Teller has become a much stronger actor over the years, so he should definitely do justice to the story. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

VICTORIA AND ABDUL: A historical drama

about Abdul Karim, a young Indian clerk who travels to Britain to participate in the Queen's Golden Jubilee, only to strike up an unlikely friendship with the queen herself. With Judi Dench playing Queen Victoria, the film is worth seeing no matter what, but let's hope the filmmakers have a deft touch when it confronts the colonialism and racism of the time.

a half, I had seen enough spilling intestines and severed body parts to last me a lifetime. It was a relief to not have to test my gag reflex on “Jigsaw,” but the film could have also taken more chances with the newly re-animated series. The traps are ingenious and creepy, but it does feel like we’ve seen it all before. Or maybe I just have. This won’t win over anyone who doesn’t like the torture and gore inherent in the series, but for the fanatics, this is a nice way to ease back into the

franchise. You can still enjoy the film without having seen any of the previous movies in the series—which makes me feel like I not only wasted 14 hours of my life sitting through the entire “Saw” oeuvre, but that I also need to rethink my life choices starting right now. Or maybe next month. SW Jigsaw

Suburban Gothic

George Clooney releases a rare misfire By Jared Rasic Isaac. Combined with a score by Academy Award winner Alexandre Desplat and cinematography by Academy Award winner Robert Elswit, this should have been a modern classic. Instead, “Suburbicon” is a combination of ideas and styles that leaves the film feeling like a schizophrenic mess without a single moment of tonal consistency. The problem that mortally wounds the film before it ever had a chance is that “Suburbicon” has two separate stories with no sense of cohesion between them. “Suburbicon” follows Matt Damon’s Gardner Lodge, a husband to a paraplegic Julianne Moore and father to a young, mildly sullen son in 1959 suburbia. They live in an all-white neighborhood named “Suburbicon,” recently shaken up by the arrival of the town’s first African-American family. So here we have two movies: one a suburban noir in which Lodge makes a series of horrible choices; the other a family story about racism and integration in the ‘50s. Either movie would have worked well by itself, but by making Damon the main

Hilary Bronwyn Gayle

he worst part about watching movies for a living isn’t sitting through the bad ones; it’s sitting through the crushing disappointments. For example, that Bond movie where Denise Richards played a rocket scientist was probably going to be stupid no matter what happened. When it turned out to be terrible, you shrugged your shoulders and moved on with your day. But it’s the bad movies with a genuinely excellent pedigree, packed with obscenely talented people, that really hurt. “Suburbicon” is one of those movies. There’s so much talent in front of and behind the camera that the film should have felt like lightning in a bottle. Instead, it feels more like a fart in a car: eye-wateringly bad and mercifully brief. In the director’s chair is George Clooney, responsible for two of my favorite films of this century: “Confessions of a Dangerous Mind” and “Good Night, and Good Luck.” The script is from the always-brilliant Coen Brothers, who have been trying to make the film for years. In front of the camera are Matt Damon, Julianne Moore and Oscar

Things are never as nice as they appear in suburbia.

character, Clooney has already handicapped his picture. Now the black family only exists to teach the white characters a lesson. The suburban noir half doesn’t work either because we have no reason to care about the characters; the story is painfully predictable and the dark comedy is neither as edgy nor as funny as it thinks it is. No one is going to tank their career over it, but this film is an offensive disappointment nonetheless. To tell a story about racism in Small Town, USA, is a noble idea, but then to have the black

characters be completely underwritten is a massive miscalculation. The jokes don’t work in the context of the film, the performances are all arc with zero dimension and the script adds no thrills, mystery or fun to the noir side of things. “Suburbicon” is a failure on every single level. I don’t even remember the last movie I said that about. SW Suburbicon

knew “Jigsaw” was the eighth film in the “Saw” franchise, of which I had only seen the first two. I was also aware of how the series was obsessed with its own continuity by not wasting any of its characters and tying all the films together with a deeply convoluted, impenetrable mythology. Since I’m not only a glutton for punishment, but also obsessed with deeply impenetrable continuity, I recently watched the first seven “Saw” movies over a 36-hour period. This was astoundingly unnecessary. Here’s what I learned: The first three “Saw” films focus on John Kramer, the Jigsaw Killer, who kidnaps flawed individuals not truly appreciating their lives. Jigsaw then sets these people up in increasingly complicated, Rube Goldberg-ian traps to either kill the victim or give them a new lease on life. Kramer is dead by the end of the third film, leaving his assistants to continue his work. See, Kramer was dying from an inoperable brain tumor and was playing the long game when it came to his self-righteous crusade against the lazy, the criminal and the genuinely crappy people of his city. Even during the seventh movie, the victims are still

listening to recordings of Kramer telling them he wants to play a game. “Jigsaw” takes place a decade after Kramer’s death and follows a new group of victims as they move through a deadly barn filled with traps, irony and the gravel-stained voice of Tobin Bell as the long-dead Jigsaw. Since the first seven movies all have a giant twist at the end, it’s safe to assume “Jigsaw” will have one and that it will be connected to how the hell Kramer is still killing people long after his bloody death. He’s not Jason Voorhees, so unless the franchise has decided to get really weird, we’re not dealing with a zombie Jigsaw. Actually, a zombie Jigsaw might have been the perfect way to re-launch this franchise after spending seven years gathering dust. With directors Michael and Peter Spierig (responsible for the stylish and undervalued vampire flick “Daybreakers”) onboard, I expected a “Saw” movie that took the franchise in unexpected and exciting new directions. For better or worse, what we got instead was just another “Saw” movie. “Jigsaw” is fun and fast-paced, while also toning down the gore the franchise is so well known for. After watching eight “Saw” movies across a day and

A test ride showed that the new Versafit earphones provided tunes while not blocking out traffic noise.

possessing an ancient iPhone 5 for the purposes of music, I was pleasantly surprised to find that Versafit connected with no fuss. Another helpful feature for the recreationalist: The headset is sweat proof. Because demo day was on a mid-autumn, precipitous afternoon, I didn’t perspire much. Still, Versafit performed great in the rain. Hearing music and environmental sounds also allowed for a great sense of situational awareness—especially while merging to circle the roundabout at 14th Street and Newport Avenue. Getting a visual over the left shoulder before merging is key, but I found having the environmental auditory cue (checking for the sound of a car approaching) before turning to look helped with

efficiency and confidence when merging. Dubs has also discovered, “I find myself wearing Versafit headphones every time I ski because they are the only headphones that are comfortably thin enough to fit under my ski helmet. Plus, I can listen to music but still stay safe, be aware of what is going on around me and avoid accidents.” SW Versafit and Bedphones DubLabs.com

ike other Bendites, mobbing around town on bicycles, I love listening to tunes. Living near College Way and Portland, I travel through a gauntlet of street crossings and roundabouts to reach the nearest noteworthy destination, Newport Market. The dilemma of whether to listen to music while bike commuting, since it can be dangerous, has plagued me for years. Earbuds dominate the recreational-listening market. Designed to penetrate your ear canal, they also often cancel out all environmental sounds—which can be uncomfortable and ultimately unsafe. Local company Dublabs has created a solution. In the audio business since 2011, Dublabs made its debut with Bedphones, the world’s smallest on-ear headphones. Their landmark design: a streamlined silver dollar-sized speaker that sits over the ear, and pliable strips that contour behind the ear and mount the speaker in place. Founder Eric Dubs was inspired to create Bedphones after attempting to go to sleep wearing earbuds. “They stuck painfully into my ears when I turned onto my side. That’s when I had the idea to create headphones comfortable enough to wear to bed. When I graduated school I went to work as a mechanical engineer for a major defense contractor, but I soon realized that I wanted to start my own company. I went into DubsLabs full-time and made hundreds of Bedphones prototypes before sourcing a contract manufacturer and putting a deposit down on my first 2,000 unit Bedphones order.” Expanding on the Bedphones model, Dublabs’ newest product, Versafit, has several features for the recreationalist. Although Versafit won’t be available until Thanksgiving, I got my ears on a prototype for a demo. The headset is wireless, has a battery life of 13 hours and can connect to devices via Bluetooth.

Natural World

The Barnes Butte Monarch butterfly-ers

Have a question about the natural world of Central Oregon? Send your questions to jimnaturalist@gmail.com.

By Jim Anderson 31 VOLUME 21 ISSUE 44 / November 2, 2017 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

ast Thursday was a day I’ll long remember. I spent most of of it in Prineville, at Barnes Butte Elementary School with first graders in their classroom and then at the Prineville Wetlands. That may sound like an incongruous combination, but when you consider what the Barnes Butte first grade Badgers were up to, (Monarch butterflies, and the nature of the Prineville community) it’s just plain wonderful. Karen Gentry of Discover Your Forest got things going with a Powerpoint presentation that introduced the children to the biology and habitat need of Monarch butterflies, while Sue Anderson of Monarch Advocates of Central Oregon (also my wife!) used a plywood replica of a Monarch and shared the miraculous story of butterfly metamorphosis. Hands shot up throughout the class, the children telling both personal stories and asking questions about Monarchs. “I saw three big butterflies last week.” “How many eggs do the butterflies lay?” “How do the Monarchs stay alive… and why are they dying out?” were just a few of the stories and questions. One girl even shared what she had observed last summer, when she and her family came upon a milkweed patch with Monarch caterpillars. Both presenters were amazed at the knowledge the children shared with them, and only made the day even better. The topic of the need for milkweed— as it is the only plant Monarchs lay eggs on, and caterpillars will eat—was a big topic. Before Gentry was done, every student understood their role in helping the nature of the space in which they live be safe for themselves and all kinds of wildlife. As I was leaving the school to fol-

drawing or storytelling usually done on animal hides," Mattioda said. “One of the big connections that we want students to make is how the region impacted the behaviors of the tribes, because, as you may already know, the tribes were greatly impacted by their food sources.” I’ll be going back to visit with the Barnes Butte fourth graders in the near future to find out more about how the students learn about Native Peoples and their customs. Everyone at the school was kind and warm. The office staff went out of their way to help me obtain permission to use a photograph of fourth grader Athena Weik. I had never seen such intriguing work in a school before. After lunch the first graders rolled out to the Prineville Wetlands for the adventure of planting milkweed and wildflower seeds, so necessary to Monarch butterflies.

Both presenters were amazed at the knowledge the children shared with them. low the first graders to the Prineville Wetlands, I happened to notice some interesting pictographs drawn on large pieces of brown paper. Fourth grader Athena Weik stopped to tell me about the characters printed on the paper. That led me to Weik’s teacher, Heather Mattioda, who kindly shared how those pictographs came to be on the bulletin board. “The pictographs that are displayed in the hallway were part of the study that we did in reference to the natives’ form of record. We discuss legends (story-telling of the Native people), petroglyphs (carved pictures usually in rock), and pictographs, a form of

There again, the warm and friendly manner of the educators and professional members of the Prineville community came to the fore. Eric Klann, the man who put the Prineville Wetlands in operation, welcomed the children and their teachers. (A very good idea on his part, as his wife, Sarah is one of the teachers.) There were also several wetlands volunteers there to help. Longtime volunteer, Jim VanVlack—who has volunteered at several conservation agencies throughout Central Oregon, including the Sunriver Nature Center and Observatory—helped guide everyone to the area the children were going to plant

their seeds. Gary Sanders, project manager for the Crooked River Wetlands Council, was the sparkplug that really got the little Barnes Butte Badgers all prepped up for planting, showing them a mechanical seed planter used to spread vast amounts of seed. He told them they were going to do it themselves…at which they all cheered. The Crooked River Watershed Council, its partners, employees, and volunteer board members promote stream health, education outreach and upland awareness. Recent projects have focused on riparian restoration, juniper removal and improving fish passage with the expressed goal to improve watershed health. Sanders then showed the students two orange, five-gallon buckets containing the seeds, a box full of large spoons they would use to scoop up their seeds out of the bucket, and how to distribute the seeds in the area around them. Then he gave them choices as to how to cover the seeds, letting them either lie down on the ground and wiggle around over the the seeds, or jump up and down on them, which he demonstrated by leaping into the air and stomping the ground under his feet. There, 104 first graders raptly listened. When Sanders started jumping up and down, they all cheered, shouted and followed Gary’s example. When the children began planting seeds, the ground around the wetlands began to shudder and shake with the robust jumping of the students. U.S. Geological Survey geologists monitoring earthquake sensors may have thought the Big One had gone off in Prineville! SW

with at least a bachelor degree (23 percent) and families without children in the household (21 percent). So, basically, higher educated empty-nesters seem to account for most of the increase in the rental market. The report does not analyze the reasoning behind the increase in senior renters, but the recent housing crash likely had a big influence, along with the difficulty of finding an affordable home for downsizing. Apartments and rental housing also have an appeal with less maintenance and more amenities that seniors may find desirable by not having to maintain yards and homes. This was a bit of a surprise, as normally one would expect more of an increase in younger renters than baby boomers.

istorically, rental housing has been depicted as starter housing for younger people, mainly in their 20s whose goal was to eventually own a home. Apartments were basically just temporary or transitional shelters and therefore had few amenities. The recent housing crash changed that as many, both young and old, turned to the rental market and now appear to be settling there. According to the U.S. Census Bureau statistics recently analyzed in RENTCafé (an online rental listing service), between 2009 and 2015, the rental rate of seniors aged 55 and over increased by 28 percent, and the age group 34 years or younger increased by 3 percent. Further analysis of the numbers shows that the highest increases were in renters

I’m a newly divorced woman trying some online dating sites. Because I read your column, I understand how men prioritize beauty. I’m an attractive woman, but I often photograph terribly, and I’m thinking of spending some money and having a professional photographer shoot some pix in a studio. Would this be a good investment? I feel like I’d have a better shot if I had really great photos. —Unphotogenic Being somewhat vain, I fear the candid camera. In fact, I not only favor the posed photo but tend to stick (rather aggressively) to a single pose — the one that doesn’t make people wonder whether I eat oats out of a burlap bag. On online dating sites especially, appearance drives whom we choose or lose. Not surprisingly, marketing researcher Jonah Berger reports that “most online contexts,” including dating sites, “are dominated by posed photos,” as opposed to the candid kind — to the point where the main leisure activity in North America appears to be standing in a bathroom making duck lips for the camera. Berger notes that people tend to assume that others will find them more likable and worth getting to know if they present “a curated, polished version of the self.” Yet in his research, it was the candid pix that made people more interested in “being friends

with or going on a date” with the person pictured. Those he surveyed also reported feeling “more connected” to those in the candid photos and liking these people more overall. “Candid photos made photo targets seem more genuine,” Berger explains. They “seem to provide a glimpse into what someone is truly like, an unvarnished perspective on how they look and behave when others aren’t looking.” However, there are times when candids are less advisable. For example, Berger found that employers on LinkedIn were more interested in hiring someone who used a posed photo. Sadly, it seems the candid “Here I am at 1 in the morning drinking my sixth glass of chardonnay” does not scream, “Hire MEEEEE!” But getting back to online dating, let’s temper Berger’s findings with what we all know: The hotter you look the more replies you’ll get on a dating site. So, because you’re somebody who often Amy Alkon photographs “terribly,” your best bet is getting photos taken that (SET ITAL) appear (END ITAL) to be candid. You do this by having a photographer or friend shoot you “in action” — in other words, appearing not to notice the big honking lens or the iPhone right in your face. Plan to shoot a ton of photos and at least a few will catch you looking babe-alicious. This should help you bridge the photogenic fairness gap — how there are those the candid camera loves and those it loves to make look like ringers for Winston Churchill.

ASTROLOGY

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): In the early stages

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): I used to nurture a grudge against Tony Pastorini. He was the high school math teacher who kicked me out of the extracurricular Calculus Club because my proofs were too “intuitive and unorthodox.” The shock of his rejection drove me away from a subject I had been passionate about. Eventually, though, I came to realize what a good deed he had done. It would have been a mistake for me to keep specializing in math – I was destined to study literature and psychology and mythology – but it took Pastorini to correct my course. Now, Sagittarius, I invite you to make a similar shift of attitude. What debt of gratitude do you owe a person you have thought of as a source of frustration or obstruction?

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): In the lore of ancient Greek mythology, the god Prometheus stole fire from his fellow deities and sneakily gave it to us humans. Before our patron provided us with this natural treasure, we poor creatures had no access to it. As I gaze out at your possibilities in the coming months, Capricorn, I foresee you having Promethean inclinations. Your ability to bestow blessings and spread benevolence and do good deeds will be at a peak. Unlike Prometheus, however, I don’t expect you’ll get into trouble for your generosity. Just the opposite!

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Here’s a parable you may find useful. An armchair explorer is unexpectedly given a chance to embark on an adventure she has only read and dreamed about. But she hesitates on the brink of seizing her opportunity. She asks herself, “Do I really want to risk having ragged reality corrupt the beautiful fantasy I’ve built up in my mind’s eye?” In the end she takes the gamble. She embarks on the adventure. And ragged reality does in fact partially corrupt her beautiful fantasy. But it also brings her unexpected lessons that partially enhance the beautiful fantasy. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): “A game of chess is usually a fairy tale of 1001 blunders,” said chess grandmaster Savielly Tartakower, a Pisces. “It is a struggle against one’s own errors,” he added. “The winner of the game is the player who makes the next-to-last mistake.” I think this is excellent counsel during the current phase of your astrological cycle, Pisces. It’s time to risk bold moves, because even if they’re partly or wholly mistaken, they will ultimately put you in a good position to succeed in the long run. Here’s a further point for your consideration. Remember the philosopher Rene Descartes’ famous dictum, “Cogito ergo sum”? It’s Latin for “I think, therefore I am.” Tartakower countered this with, “Erro ergo sum,” which is “I err, therefore I am.”

ARIES (March 21-April 19): America’s Civil War ended in 1865. A veteran from that conflict later produced a daughter, Irene Triplett, who is still alive today and collecting his pension. In the coming months, I foresee you being able to take advantage of a comparable phenomenon, although it may be more metaphorical. Blessings from bygone times, perhaps even from the distant past, will be available to you. But you’ll have to be alert and know

where to look. So now might be a good time to learn more about your ancestors, ruminate exuberantly about your own history, study the lives of your dead heroes, and maybe even tune in to your previous incarnations.

NEWSCHANNEL 21 Central Oregon’s News Leader

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): “I wasn’t in the

market to buy a Day-Glo plastic fish from a street vendor,” testified a witty guy named Jef on Facebook, “but that’s exactly what I did. The seller said he found it in someone’s trash. He wanted fifty cents for it, but I talked him up to a dollar. The best part is the expression on the fish’s face. It’s from Edvard Munch’s “The Scream.”” I bring this testimony to your attention, Taurus, because I feel it’s good role-modeling for you. In the coming days, I bet you won’t know exactly what you’re looking for until you find it. This prize may not be highly valued by anyone else but you. And it will amuse you and be of use to you in just the right ways.

VOLUME 21 ISSUE 44 / November 2, 2017 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

of Johnny Cash’s development as a musician, his mother hired a coach to give him singing lessons. But after a few meetings, the teacher counseled him to quit. Johnny’s style was so unique, the seasoned pro thought it better not to tamper with his natural sound. I hesitate to offer you comparable advice, Scorpio. I’m a big believer in the value of enhancing one’s innate talents with training and education. On the other hand, my assessment of your destiny between now and October 2018 impels me to offer a suggestion: It may be useful for you to give some credence to the perspective of Johnny Cash’s voice coach. Make sure you guard and revere your distinctiveness.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Where are Chinese gooseberries grown? In New Zealand. What is a camel’s hair brush made of? Squirrel fur. When England and France waged their Hundred Years’ War, how long did it last? 116 years. When do Russians celebrate their October Revolution? In November. Trick answers like these are likely to be a recurring theme for you in the coming weeks, Gemini. That’s why I advise you to NOT be a Master of the Obvious.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): In accordance with the astrological omens, I recommend you indulge in any or all of the following exercises. 1. Dedicate an entire day to performing acts of love. 2. Buy yourself flowers, sing yourself a song, and tell yourself a story about why you’re so beautiful. 3. Explain your deeply-felt opinion with so much passion and logic that you change the mind of a person who had previously disagreed with you. 4. Make a pilgrimage to a sacred spot you want to be influenced by. 5. Buy a drink for everyone in a bar or cafe.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): “Dear Rob: I saw a photo of you recently, and I realized that you have a scar on your face. I hope you don’t mind me telling you it resembles an ancient Mayan hieroglyph that means ‘Builder of Bridges for Those Who Are Seeking Home.’ Did you know this? If so, do you think it’s an accurate title for what you do? - Renegade Leo Scholar.” Dear Scholar: Thanks for your observation. I don’t know if I fully deserve the title “Builder of Bridges for Those Who Are Seeking Home,” but it does describe the role I’m hoping to play for Leos. The coming weeks will be an excellent time for your tribe to clarify and cultivate your notion of home. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Author Clarissa Pinkola Estés encourages us to purge any tendencies we might have to think of ourselves as hounded animals, angry, wounded victims, leaky vessels aching to be filled, or broken creatures yearning for rescue. It so happens that now is a perfect time for you to perform this purgation. You have maximum power to revise your self-image so that it resounds with more poise, self-sufficiency and sovereignty.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): I used to scoff at people who play the lottery. The chance of winning big is almost nil. Why not invest one’s hopes in more pragmatic schemes to generate money? But my opinion softened a bit when the planet Jupiter made a lucky transit to an aspect in my personal horoscope. It really did seem like my chances of winning the lottery were unusually high. I started dreaming about the educational amusements I’d pursue if I got a huge influx of cash. I opened my mind to expansive future possibilities that I had previously been closed to. So even though I didn’t actually get a windfall during this favorable financial phase, I was glad I’d entertained the fantasy. In alignment with current astrological omens, Libra, here’s the moral of the story for you: Meditate on what educational amusements you’d seek if you had more money.

541.678.5199 Accepting All Credit Cards

remember the first time someone gave me cannabis tincture. “Put this under your tongue” they said, dosing a couple droppers full of “Green Dragon” in my mouth. I had to resist spitting it out, as it reeked of Everclear and trim, and to quote Ralph Wiggum from “The Simpsons,” “It tastes like burning!” In the years that have passed, I’ve come to accept that a burning feeling and horrendous taste in my mouth are part of the tincture experience, much like, say, my life. So I was skeptical but polite when I recently sat down with Dave Wolfe, lead chemist and co-owner/founder with his wife, Frea, of Cascadia Herbals. He handed me a small bottle and suggested I place a few drops under my tongue for 30 seconds. I smiled wanly, which must be a look Dave is used to seeing as a response to his request. “It won’t burn and it tastes good, really” he assured me in the manner you would a small child reluctant to take cough syrup. I squirted a few drops under my tongue, and a few more on top, and waited for the inevitable burning. It did not happen. Them came a rush of flavor, which tasted of Purple Hindu Kush, as if I were vaporizing a bowl on a low temperature. It was like doing a Rosin dab, with terpenes bursting out all over the place. It was all I could do to not guzzle the entire bottle, which as it contains 200 mg of THC, would perhaps not have been the best idea. (Or would it? No. It would not.) Cascadia Herbals was Oregon’s first licensed cannabis tincture producer, and hands down is making the tastiest tinctures I’ve yet to try in Oregon. Dave tells me it’s because of how they process and refine. “We start with clean cannabis, and use ultra cooled organic cane alcohol to craft our Mother tincture. We utilize our house developed terpene retention system to ensure we preserve the amazing flavors our cultivation partners have worked so hard to grow,” he told me. “We complete the formula with organic

glycerin and organic lecithin to achieve a consistent strength, mouthfeel and flavor. Our ultra cooled process allows us to grab a full spectrum of cannabinoids and terpenes, and leave behind plant wax and chlorophyll,” he continued. “We don’t add any flavors or terpenes.” Dosing is easy, 20 drops equals a serving size of 5 mg THC, and each 20 ml bottle provides 40 servings. They come in strain specific flavors in four categories - Indica, Sativa, Hybrid and CBD, the latter providing a 1:1 ratio of 5 mg THC and CBD each. The lineup of strains changes frequently, but includes Durban Poison, Amnesia Haze, Nurse Jackie, GG #4, Purple Trainwreck, and others. “Our tinctures can be held under the tongue for 90 seconds for a quick onset Delta 9 effect similar to smoking or vaping. The tinctures can also be added to your favorite beverage or food and processed by your liver giving you a slower onset and a longer lasting 11 hydroxy THC effect.” The who-now-what effect? “I often talk about being able to control your experience via the sublingual Delta 9 effect versus through the gut and liver 11 hydroxy effect, and the ability to control your dosage from micro to macro” he explained. While I’m all about the Macro cannabis experience, many others are not, so being able to dial in your dose and effect is extremely valuable for patients and partakers. The bottles are very small, and can easily fit into the coin pocket of your jeans. I carried mine around for a day and used it in place of my vape pen, and added it to my cold brew coffee, a bottle of water, and put some under my tongue. Sure enough, the effects varied if swallowed or used sublingually. I tried three different bottles, and found each one to truly represent the flavors of the strain from which it was made, along with varied effects based on the strain used. And no one looked at me and yelled “What’s THAT guy doing?”, so discretion is an added bonus. cascadiaherbals.com
