Happy holidays! Merry Christmas! Happy Kwanzaa!

EDITOR Nicole Vulcan editor@bendsource.com REPORTER/CALENDAR EDITOR Keely Damara keely@bendsource.com

As we put out this last issue of the year, our staff is pausing for a moment to celebrate our respective holidays with loved ones, and also looking back at the ups and downs and the progress our community has made over the past year. While events on the national stage have sometimes appeared to move our country backward, by and large, our city and state have continued to be beacons of progress. Locally, there are areas where public process hasn’t been where it should be, where public officials have made moves that go against the will of the majority or have shown a lack of vision and planning. There have been those accused of inappropriate behavior. Affordable housing, homelessness and living-wage jobs remain issues of concern. But in the larger picture, we live in a community of good values—and when those aren’t on display, local people have shown bravery in pointing that out. We aim to be yet another resource shedding light on areas

in need of improvement, while also celebrating the good in our community year-round. Along those lines, in an effort to better serve you and bring you more of what’s on our radars as journalists, we launched a fiveday-a-week newsletter, Cascades Reader, in 2018.

As much as things stay the same, sometimes they also change Scrolling through the Opinion page of BendSource.com at the end of the year gave the Editorial Board a bird’s-eye view of the issues important to us and the wider community. It’s a good exercise to help distill down the issues that pop up over and over. Sometimes you can see small changes, sometimes only a rehash of the same players and the same challenges. Because this section of the paper is, by its very nature, intended to point us all toward forward progress, it’s interesting to note when things change and when they stay the same—and why one or the other may be the right move for our community. As we move into 2019, here are some excerpts from the editorials we wrote this past year. These represent some of the ongoing issues we covered and where they stand now.

On accountability among public figures “CONSENT AND ACCOUNTABILITY: WHEN ASSESSING IMPROPRIETY AMONG PUBLIC FIGURES—OR ANYONE ELSE—TWO IMPORTANT WORDS ACT AS GUIDELINES” 7/11 “Since the advent of the #MeToo movement, more than a few people have wondered, perhaps overly dramatically, where it all ends. In this fraught social moment, how can they ever ask another person out on a date, they’ve wondered. And what’s to become of them if they’re accused—even falsely—of impropriety against someone else? While it’s a vast oversimplification, let those two words be guides: consent and accountability.” This editorial covered the allegations a local woman made against Bend City Councilor Nathan Boddie, who was running for House District 54. The woman said Boddie groped her in 2012—an accusation which Boddie responded to by accusing the woman of substance abuse. We argued that Boddie’s behavior in the wake of the incident failed the tests of consent and accountability. Boddie remained in the House race, but lost to Cheri Helt.

“WE AREN’T THE ENEMY OF THE PEOPLE. WE ARE THE PEOPLE” – 8/15 “We’ve been complacent. We thought everybody knew how important a free press was to our world and that all this talk about us being the enemy of the people would be dismissed for the silliness that it is. But the reckless attacks have continued, instigated and encouraged by our president.” This editorial—a version of which was published in thousands of media outlets across the country—represented a collective effort among journalists to remind Americans of our vital role as the watchdogs of society. Also as members of this society, we

have a vested interest in progress, accountability and justice. The president continues to paint journalists as “enemies of the people,” while at the same time, former members of his staff face criminal charges and ongoing investigations stemming from foreign influence in the 2016 election.

On wildfires “IN HOPING FOR A MILDER FIRE SEASON, DON’T OVERLOOK SMOKEY’S ADVICE” – 6/27 “…even with legislative progress, it’s hard to ignore that so much of the fire problem is already a result of human activity.” In the wake of a devastating fire season throughout the West, this was a reminder that a legislative solution to handling fires is just part of the equation.

On regulation of the legal marijuana market “DON’T LET LEGAL BUSINESSES GET THE SHORT SHRIFT” - 11/14 “Republicans pride themselves on a pro-business stance, advocating in favor of allowing the free market to reflect the will of the people. Republicans usually say that when people are gainfully employed, they require fewer social services. With jobs, people can pull themselves up by their proverbial bootstraps and take care of themselves. All of that is why it is so puzzling that the Deschutes County Commissioners would take so many actions to effectively squash a local industry—one that continues to gain support nationwide.” Here, we shed light on the challenges legal marijuana businesses face, and the positive economic impact those businesses have had on Oregon—all as they continue to face further restrictions on their industry from the Deschutes County Commission, who says it’s in the interest of “safety.”

On the City of Bend’s septicto-sewer conversion “SEPTIC TO SEWER CONVERSION: KICKING THE CAN DOWN THE ROAD ONLY EXACERBATES THE PROBLEM” – 9/12 “Much effort and collaboration has gone into finding a realistic solution to the septic to sewer conversion issue, and our elected officials at the city, county and otherwise should recognize that collaboration, and stop proposing more ways to kick the can down the road.” This editorial pointed out some of the backand-forth legal wrangling involved in attempting to move hundreds of homes in Bend to a new sewer system. While we acknowledge that the City decided to build a sewer without making provisions for how homeowners would pay for the conversion, we posited that asking the Department of Environmental Quality to relax its rules would not be a viable solution to fix the current mess. As we move into 2019, here’s hoping it will be a year of even more forward progress and accountability in our community and nationwide.

A Look Back At 2018 In Pop Culture FIVE OF THE 841 WORDS ADDED TO THE MERRIAM-WEBSTER DICTIONARY IN 2018: Hophead (N.)

Editor’s note: This letter was in response to another letter written by, we assume, the pseudonym of Daisy Ryder, who advocated Benditos shoot cats in the eye when they wander into their yards. First off, I hope some hombre named Daisy Ryder didn’t pull a fast one on a couple of tenderfoots over at The Source. A Daisy Red Ryder is an old model of B.B. gun. If he did, why... why, that would just be lower than a snake’s belly! Bless your hearts. Old Daisy’s feathers got ruffled from months of reading about cats so now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their backyard oases? Daisy’s kind is legendary in these parts. You see, Daisy is likely a man. A man with issues. Daisy doesn’t like fat orange cats, so his reaction is to shoot them (Curiously, he probably voted for the fattest orange cat of them all in 2016). Angry old white man with issues. Annie, I mean Daisy get your gun! Instead of dealing with an animal problem like a reasonable man, Daisy asks other Disgusted and Fed-Up People to join him in aiming for the eyes. Don’t call animal control, that’s big government. Let’s form a posse! Like John Wayne! Revered by angry white males, Fox News copperheads and Tea Partiers alike as one of the greatest heroes in US history, the Duke, ever the birder, would never let a cat stand between him and a sweet songbird without a gun fight. How many women do you know who would share their desire to shoot a cat in the eye? Not on the west side anyways. Nope, not ladylike. And I recognize the brand. Sure as shootin’ he wandered off the angry old man ranch. How many women do you know who reach for their trusty pellet guns at the sight of a cat, let alone own a pellet gun? Exactly. And a Daisy Ryder? (Ok, maybe June Lockhart on the set of Lassie in 1954. But she would’ve used it to dig out Timmy who took the real rifle into the abandoned mine that just collapsed. Thanks Lassie, good girl!) Speaking of girl power, so we have an old coot passing as Daisy and hoping to lead a band of vigilantes on a cat-le drive (sorry) no doubt riding sidesaddle into the high desert sunset. Then sitting around the campfire

Top 10 Accomplishments for the City of Bend

Elected Mayor Following a public input process and a citywide vote that changed our charter, we modernized local government by allowing the voters to elect their own mayor, a change from our old system where Councilors selected a mayor from amongst themselves.

City manager weighs in on progress in 2018

Editor’s note: As we look back on 2018, we asked Bend’s City Manager Eric King to reflect on the progress made by the city staff and council. We gave him very little direction—other than a missive to “list accomplishments.” This is what he came up with. Fire Levy Success I’ve never seen a magazine with a Top Ten Best Places to have a heart attack, but if there was one, we’d make the cover. This year, voters approved a Fire Department operating levy with more than 70 percent approval, allowing us to continue some of our efficient life-saving programs. The levy helps fund an innovative “basic life support” system which allows us to meet response time goals—which directly relate to lives saved. Bend’s cardiac survivability rate is one of the highest in the nation. Police Community Engagement Our Police Department’s improved staffing, award-winning wellness program and innovative community engagement program set the scene for more than 2,500 positive, preemptive interactions with members of our community. Relative to this, we had a 27 percent increase in officer-initiated (in other words, proactive) calls. These contributed to a reduction in mental health calls and allowed us to better respond to the serious 911 calls. Improved Streets The Streets and Operations Department really upped its game in 2018. A Council goal to improve street maintenance and some creative, short-term budget reallocations to boost street maintenance funding resulted in improved streets. Crews treated nearly 100 lane miles of streets in 2018. Pavement Condition Index (a rating of street conditions on a scale of 0-100) in Bend increased to 73 in 2018, from 71 in 2017, (and 68 in 2015), our deferred maintenance backlog has been reduced from $91 million to $79.4 million and pothole complaints went down.

Affordable Housing The City’s Affordable Housing Program can’t solve the housing crisis alone, but it’s making a difference. With an anticipated project completion in Northwest Crossing by year’s end, we’ll have built 103 affordable homes this year, with 196 more homes in the pipeline. This year we also won a legislative expansion of our urban growth boundary, which will add 185 more affordable units and 175 middle-income units east of Bend. And, our Affordable Housing Fund leveraged $24 million in funding from state, federal, and private partners to improve housing supply, too. GO Bond Completion We wrapped up a seven-year, $30 million transportation system upgrade to street corridors and intersections all across the city. The 14th Street ribbon cutting in October marked the final transportation project funded by a General Obligation Bond voters approved in 2011. Improvements benefitted all modes of travel and also included Reed Market (which includes a roundabout at 15th and a new bridge and traffic signal at American Lane) and 27th Street, as well as new roundabouts at Brookswood /Powers, Simpson /Mount Washington and 18th /Empire—intersections that had a lot of serious crashes prior to improvements. Neighborhood Voices Amplified In recent years, we’ve helped volunteers revive several dormant neighborhood associations. In 2018, the Council recognized the growing body of voices wanting more connection with the Council, so we formed a new advisory committee, the Neighborhood Leadership Alliance, providing a better way for neighborhood associations to participate in the Council’s policy-making process.

Sewer Systems Upgrade Community members probably don’t talk about sewer all that much, but City staff do. In 2018, we finished the Southeast Interceptor, an 8-mile pipe under 27th St., carrying waste out of our growing city. We finished it ahead of schedule and under budget by almost $2 million. This pipeline relieved capacity issues, and because it’s a gravity-fed system, it reduced energy use for pump stations that used to pump waste. The City also finished the water reclamation facility (sewage treatment plant) expansion, increasing its capacity by a couple million gallons a day. If you’re not talking about sewer in your household, it’s because the system is working. Growth Plan Springs into Action The community-supported Growth Plan has shifted from community planning to action. In 2018, we figured out how to pay for the extensions of Empire and Murphy roads. Empire improvements are underway. We chose the contractors for extending Murphy Road and will begin that project in early 2019. We are on our way to updating the transportation plan, which involves 25 local residents and businesses in the creation of a plan that will serve Bend over the next 20 years. We also improved the North Area sewer, opening up land for development. Additionally, we are leveraging recent infrastructure improvements to begin additional planning work in the core and southeast Bend that involves a diverse group of community members. Phew! Climate Action Plan The City is auditing its own facilities and operations and investing in improvements to reduce energy use and save money. We’re also helping the community do its part to achieve community-wide fossil fuel reduction goals. With grant funds, the City hired a Sustainability Coordinator this year to manage the community climate action plan and public involvement process that will figure out what the community can do to reduce emissions in ways that benefit businesses and residents. Stay tuned!

1 Wars 10/26 Clothing

Apparel giant Under Armour sends a cease and desist to local business By Chris Miller Under Armour sent a cease and desist order to Bend-based Cascade Armory Oct. 24, claiming Cascade Armory is creating brand confusion and that Under Armour is suffering from it. Short said he and his business partner/wife have vowed to fight the clothing giant. They’ve hired a film crew from San Diego to make a documentary on “how bad of a company Under Armour is,” Short says, and have a game plan for a social media push. “We’re going to ride it out and hold our ground,” Short told the Source. Short said his attorney fees have run about $4,000 per month, and that’s before any real legal battles have started. He said trademark court will cost about $50,000. However, Short said the community support has been great and he’s even getting emails and orders from people in Europe—all because of the Source story, he said. Update: Alex Short told the Source

on Dec. 19 that Under Armour applied for another extension that runs out on Jan. 6.

2 NBC Dateline

reports on murder of Kaylee Sawyer 4/27 Dateline NBC’s “Into The Night” airs Friday, April 27 By Keely Damara Update: After Kaylee Sawyer was murdered by former Central Oregon Community College safety officer Edwin Lara two years ago, her family is trying to change Oregon law. And the legislation has been named “Kaylee’s Law.” If passed, it would take steps to prevent any confusion between campus safety officers and police officers. According to a story on KTVZ, advocates of Kaylee’s Law want campus safety officers to have less power. That would include: elimination of

stop-and-frisk abilities, elimination of blue and red lights on campus safety vehicles, different uniforms from those of Oregon police departments and a requirement to report incidents to the Bend Police Department.

123People are running in Bend’s City Council/ Mayor Race 8/29 Here’s who’s running By Nicole Vulcan Update: After the final votes were tallied, Sally Russell will be sworn in as Bend’s first elected Mayor in January. Barb Campbell retained her seat over challengers Sarah McCormick and the frequent overnight guest in the Deschutes County Jail—Ron Boozell, aka Rondo. Gena Goodman-Campbell won her first term as City Councilor, defeating Andrew Davis and Victor Johnson. The Council is currently taking applications for the open Council

seat vacated by Russell. They expect to name the new councilor Jan. 16.

Bryan Michael Penner died of apparent suicide by asphyxiation By Chris Miller Recap: Bryan Michael Penner died March 12 at St. Charles Medical Center of an apparent suicide, said the office of District Attorney John Hummel. According to that office, Penner was the sole suspect in the disappearance of Sara Gomez. Sara’s body was found May 25 in Deschutes County, approximately 20 miles east of Bend. Her body was found wrapped in a tarp, comforter, blanket, foam mattress and an inflatable raft that were all bound around her body with duct tape. The Medical Examiner further noted that Sara’s body was in “an advanced state of decomposition.”

7 McLeod-Skinner’s Feat in Deschutes County 11/9 Results

11/7 By The Source Staff In the November election, all state measures were defeated, except Measure 102 which removed restrictions on financing for affordable housing. Democrat incumbent Kate Brown won the governor’s race against Republican Bendite Knute Buehler. Republican Cheri Helt won Bend’s Oregon House 54 race. Democrat Jamie-McLeod-Skinner lost to Republican Greg Walden in the Congressional District 2 race. Sally Russell will become Bend’s first directly elected mayor. Patti Adair defeated James Cook to become Deschutes County Commissioner, and Tony DeBone won re-election against challenger Amy Lowes.

6 Real Estate 2018 Forecast 2/28

Expect more of the same: high prices, low inventory By Chris Miller Recap: At a real estate forecast breakfast in February, put on by the Central Oregon Association of Realtors, presenters said the same factors that have affected area real estate for the last few years—limited inventory and an influx of new people to the area—are still in play. According to Business Oregon’s website, which gets its information from the Bureau of Labor, Bend’s current median home price is $404,000 and the median household income is $60,404.

9 to see it go: Sorry French Market Closes 4/4

After a brief stint, the Riverside Boulevard spot is now closed By Nicole Vulcan After less than a year in business, the French Market closed its doors. The restaurant opened in May 2017 in the former Riverside Market location on Riverside Boulevard. “The slow season is too slow for us to stay profitable,” co-owner Phil Lipton told the Source. “We met many friendly patrons. We thank them for their support and wish we could continue to refine our service and menus.”

10 Meanwhile, Back at the Ranch 7/5

It was once an over-grazed range that became the home of Rajneeshpuram. Now another type of religion occupies the space, along with ranchers committed to land restoration By Brian Jennings Madras area rancher Ron Ochs, 88, says it was the most bizarre time in Oregon history. He’s one of many Oregonians who recently re-lived the Rajneesh era, between 1981 and 1985, by watching the popular Netflix documentary series, “Wild, Wild Country.” When we met up with Ochs at his ranch, he was more than willing to talk about the influx of thousands of followers of the Indian guru and mystic, Bhagwan Shree Rajneesh—later known as Osho—at the Big Muddy Ranch near Antelope. The guru preached peace, goodwill and free love, and attracted a large following of Westerners, starting with his days in Puna, India. The Bhagwan died on Jan. 19, 1990, in India.

5 Midterm Election 2018

Greg Walden lost Deschutes County for the first time. A political science expert theorizes why. By Chris Miller Recap: Although Jamie McLeod-Skinner didn’t win the election in Oregon’s 2nd Congressional District, she did accomplish something that no Democrat has ever done before—getting more votes than Greg Walden in Deschutes County. According to unofficial county elections results from the Deschutes County Elections, Democrat McLeod-Skinner garnered 45,020 votes in Deschutes County, to Republican Walden’s 44,392. To put that in perspective, the closest anyone’s gotten to beating Walden was in 2006, when Carol Voisin lost to Walden by nearly 17,000 votes. In 2016, Walden defeated James Crary 63,565 to 31,539, a difference of 32,026 votes.

House, pulled its support of Boddie, accusing the candidate of using a “homophobic slur and promoting the illegal consumption of alcohol.” Boddie—a Bend city councilor whose term ends in January—denied those accusations, and said he had been given very little information about what happened. He also told OPB he was unaware of the incident Newbold described.

New Year’s Eve With Larry and His Flask The boys of Bend set 2019 off right By Isaac Biehl

and I into the band room at lunch, even though Andrew wasn’t even in band she would still let him jam on the drums. She was always special to me.” Being around for this long as a band, Larry and His Flask have seen the music industry go through a lot of changes. “Probably the availability of music,” says Skatvold of the biggest differences between then and now. “I don’t see a CD anymore and think, ‘I need to buy it.’” This is contributed by the rise of streaming services like Spotify and Apple Music, or as Skatvold even mentioned, the possibility of “downloading from a Russian website.” The band’s latest album, “This Remedy,” only just dropped this October, but the guys are stoked to get back at it. One of the band’s resolutions for 2019 is to try to release more music, considering it had been five years since the previous release. “We hope to have a new EP out, maybe early summer or late

Larry and His Flask relish the moments playing in Bend.

spring,” mentioned Skatvold. The band appears ready to combat the immediateness of people’s attention spans and the music cycle, which also includes a little west coast run coming at the end of January. Before the music starts you can catch a local art show starting at 7pm. And if you can make it to midnight, there will also be an absinthe toast provided by

the Oregon Spirit Distillers. With that, 2019, here we come! Larry and Friends New Year’s Celebration

Top 10(ish) Music Shows of 2018

A local DJ waxes about the best live music he saw this year, and our editor sneaks in one, too By Mike Thomas, 92/9 FM

Editor’s note: Central Oregon gets more than its fair share of great touring acts, as well as local musicians, hitting its stages. To help us recall some of the best nights in live music, we consulted someone who attends more than his fair share of shows: local DJ Mike Thomas, who I join each Thursday on his morning show on 92.9 FM. But because I also see more than my fair share, I also made one addition to this list… Gogol Bordello Midtown Ballroom, Feb. 23 We had many big names of all genres in Bend this year. In fact, there were several stretches over a couple of weeks that would have made an entire year’s worth of shows a decade ago. But one underthe-radar show worth mentioning, is Gogol Bordello. It was a fun night had by everyone on stage and in the crowd! Hopefully the sound guys had a good time, too. Flogging Molly Midtown Ballroom, planned for March 24 The best concert that nobody saw was Flogging Molly. The cancellation of that show because of bad weather and roads was a serious disappointment to so many fans. We had been looking forward to them coming back to Bend since they played the station’s first anniversary

show. The band was bummed about it, too. They will be back soon, we hope! Marty O’Reilly & The Old Soul Orchestra (editor’s addition to this list) Volcanic Theatre Pub, April 12 Ah, memories… Go see a Marty O’Reilly show, they said. You won’t be disappointed, they said. And I wasn’t. With a mix of Delta blues, soul, jazz and funk, a whole lot of haunting strings and a fun stage personality, I’m checking our calendar right now to see if and when he’s back in Bend again. Floater GoodLife Brewing Company, June 21 and Oregon Spirit Distillers, June 22 Floater at Oregon Spirit Distillers and GoodLife Brewing were rare outside shows for them in Bend. They thrived under the sunlight of early summer. A fun and humble group that put on a good rock show. The crowd was more enthusiastic for Floater than the headlining band. Poor Man’s Whiskey 4Peaks Music Festival, June 23 Poor Man Whiskey’s Saturday set at 4 Peaks had a power failure, thus losing amplified sound. Other bands’ members came out to help, with everyone grabbing acoustic instruments and whatever

else would make noise to play several crowd sing-along covers to make some sweet-sounding lemonade out of technical-difficulty lemons. Social Distortion Midtown Ballroom, July 8 Social Distortion was back at the Midtown this summer for another sold-out show. I’m all for bringing in more acts that haven’t played here, and I feel there are some bands that could take a rest on Bend for a concert season, but Social D is not one of those bands. The Pixies Les Schwab Amphitheater, Aug. 5 The Pixies were one of the first bands to play the Les Schwab. Their return to the stage with opener Sleigh Bells was fun and energetic. The crowd got to watch a band that influenced famous bands that aren’t around anymore rip through their catalogue, showing why they are so admired. Dwight Yoakam Oregon Spirit Distillers, Aug. 23 When first asked what I thought of Dwight Yoakam playing Oregon Spirit Distillers, I could not say, “Yes! Please! That would be amazing!” fast enough. Or Fast as You… Shaking his hand is one of my favorite

moments in my career. Cowboys, hipsters and everyone in between all came together to witness this living legend. Portugal! The Man Les Schwab Amphitheater, Aug. 31 Portugal! The Man had fun busting out all their radio songs right away, including the massively popular, "Feel It Still," “so all the parents could get home early.” The Portland band’s music chops, lighting, videos, and other stage effects made for a fun Labor Day Friday on the Les Schwab stage. Cold War Kids Oregon Spirit Distillers, Sept. 1 While this show was toned down in scale and bombast compared to the previous night with Portugal! The Man, this talented group brought their best on their hits and sing-alongs. This night’s opener, Daysormay, also impressed everyone who showed up early. Dead South Fall Fest, Oct. 6 I was late to the party on Dead South, but was relieved to have found out about them before they played Fall Fest. They completely lived up to my expectation. That entire festival with both main and local stage was solid, capped off by this fun group.

13 VOLUME 22 ISSUE 52 / DECEMBER 27, 2018 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

ometown rockers Larry and His Flask are prepped to take over the Domino Room New Year’s Eve. You can’t go wrong jamming out with some local favorites to start the new year, and there isn’t anything else the guys would rather be doing, either. “It’s great to be home and playing music,” says member Kirk Skatvold. “Not having to look across the country for people who like your music is always great.” One of the other cool things happening that night is the raffle set to help raise money for local nonprofit, the Cascade Horizon Band. Prizes will include a sweet Deering Goodtime banjo and an acoustic Eastman guitar with a Fishman pickup installed. Why the Cascade Horizon Band? A special connection to Skatvold’s early musical inspirations, for one. “I was trying to track down my old middle school music teacher,” says Skatvold of CHB’s Music Director Sue Steiger. “She used to let [bandmate] Andrew

Our Own Airing of Grievances

We witness a lot of minor calamities here at the Source. Once a year, we have to call you out about it By Source Staff

While Festivus has passed, we’re pausing at the end of this year to air our own grievances… about things we see in the community that might need some gentle “tweaking” in the future. As you make merry this season, turn off that RBF, cast the corners of your upper lip in an upward direction and read on.

Dog Crap: You bagged it, now toss it

Hey, you moved to Bend! Good on ya. Now, let’s talk about the little black bags you carry around on your dog’s leash so when Fido drops a bomb, you can do your duty (pun intended) and pick up his or her crap. I appreciate that people, for the most part, pick up their dog’s waste. However, that’s only part of the process. Picking it up and leaving it in the black plastic bag so it can decompose over the next 27 lifetimes in the middle of the trail is about as helpful as getting your trash halfway to the dumpster, getting distracted and leaving it in the middle of the parking lot for someone else to deal with. I’m not stoked to step in your pooch’s dung, but at the same time, seeing 40 bags filled with crap dotting the landscape like black pustules when I’m on a hike makes me wonder which is worse. Having to take a second grader into school with poop-covered shoes isn’t my type of party, so for those who pick up after their dog—thank you. But, let’s get the job done all the way. If you bothered to bag the sh*t, bother to throw it in the garbage. — Chris Miller

YOU DON’T HAVE TO SHOUT, THANKS.

I don’t have much to gripe about — Bend is a lovely place to live! However, from the POV of the Source Weekly calendar editor, I do have a pet peeve: STOP USING ALL CAPS TO DESCRIBE YOUR EVENT. IT IS UNNECESSARY AND OBNOXIOUS FOR THE READER. (See what I mean? Not fun to look at. Use your inside voice.) — Keely Damara

The booze-versus-buds double standard

We’ve got brewpubs and tasting rooms! Cycle pubs and Brewfests! We’ve got diarrhea-and-cirrhosis-inducing elixirs galore! All of it makes the tourism brochures. Meanwhile, marijuana furrows the brows of our drunken leadership and drunken neighbors, and drunken parents, who stumble to Facebook with “concern” that the devil’s lettuce will prelude the fall of their children if a dispensary goes up within five football fields of an unlicensed daycare. Hey Karen and Bill, ever consider that Brayden and McKenzie are corrupted by your nightly chardonnay flights and not the vague smell of cannabis under LED lights? Calm thy bosom. Try a gummy. — Jeremy Dickman

Consistency, Please

It’s easy to find a good meal in Bend, but it’s difficult to find it twice. What a disappointment to crave that dish again only to be let down by inconsistent preparation. It’s either overdressed, under-seasoned or just plain meh. Is it a lack of good help? Is the chef too tired from spending the morning on the mountain? It doesn’t matter, because we have so many visitors? You would think a chain restaurant would be immune to this problem. Nope, I’ve experienced it at Chipotle, too. The solution? Eat at home or never order the same dish twice. — Lisa Sipe

Canna-preneurs seeing only dollah dollah billz

Next level disrupter Canna-preneurs with more money than class, a Sahara Desert level of thirst for press and attention, talkin’ loud and sayin’ nothing, the ones with deeper and longer relationships with alcohol and blow than cannabis, whose favorite effect of cannabis is its balance sheet potential. Often pastel-polo clad, topped with an achingly punch-able face which gives laughable lip service to support of medical marijuana, expanding opportunities for women and people of color in the industry, and craft cannabis. Try doing some good while you do well in the industry and seek out strains supportive of self-reflection and empathy. Please. — Josh Jardine

Readers who don’t read before commenting

Readers, we heart you. We heart that you come to bendsource.com or our social media channels and check out our workz. But is it too much to ask to read all the way to the end of stories—sometimes a Lilliputian 250 words in length—before you post a question that could be answered by the text? We know you’re busy. We are too—busy spending hours or sometimes days researching, interviewing sources and fact-checking the stuff we publish. And hey, our paper’s free, too—with no annoying online paywall! Your end of the bargain: reading the whole story before you post that comment. — Nicole Vulcan

VOLUME 22 ISSUE 52 / DECEMBER 27, 2018 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

Since the 1960s, Festivus has been held on Dec. 23, in homes where their denizens don’t ascribe to more traditional interpretations of the holidays. The secular, invented holiday—made more public thanks to its inclusion in a “Seinfeld” episode—includes quirky elements such as a Festivus pole, feats of strength, observation of Festivus miracles and—our favorite—the airing of grievances.

Box Factory and food carts explode, while Japanese food took a hit

25 VOLUME 22 ISSUE 52 / DECEMBER 27, 2018 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

By Lisa Sipe Lisa Sipe

As the year ends, here’s a look at some of the happenings in the food scene in Central Oregon in 2018. Rise and fall of the small market We lost Bond Street Market, the charming downtown convenience store due to a rent increase. Devore’s Good Food Store was sold and is now The Humble Beet. The remodeled store still provides organic produce and grab-andgo food but includes an espresso and smoothie bar. A specialty market, West Coast Provisions, opened in Northwest Crossing, selling a carefully selected offering of groceries, wine, beer and home goods. Liquor store explosion Last year, the Oregon Liquor Control Commission accepted applications for new retail liquor store locations in central and northeast Oregon. This year we saw more of them open. The Spirit Shop inside Newport Avenue market technically opened at the tail end of last year, but it’s the only liquor store in town where you can buy groceries and liquor in the same store, albeit with separate checks. Trailhead Liquor opened on the south end of town off U.S. Highway 97, and 3rd Street Beverage on Third Street opened Dec. 20. Gains and losses in diversity It was a sad year for Japanese cuisine in Bend. Juno Sushi, arguably the best sushi in town, closed. Fortunately, authentic Cuban cuisine in the form of Cuban Kitchen was Juno’s replacement. Another big loss was when Shibumi’s

c/o Suttle Lodge

We lost one of the best sushi restaurants in Bend but gained incredible authentic Cuban cuisine when it was replaced by Cuban Kitchen.

Okonomiyaki Yakisoba relocated to Northern California. No other restaurant in town sells okonomiyaki, aka Japanese pizza. We don’t need to be alarmed yet, but EMW: East Meets West is temporarily closed to revamp its menu. If they reopen, they say we can look forward to the next generation of Korean street food, including bibimbap and fish pocket sandwiches. There were a few restaurant openings; Poke Row in Northwest Crossing serves poke, a diced, seasoned raw fish dish served over rice, for lunch and dinner. Soorah Korean Cuisine and Sushi opened last month at the Shiloh Inn. Box Factory booms The Box Factory in the Mill Quarter area off of Industrial Way, sandwiched between downtown and the Old Mill District, pumped out dining options in 2018. It’s home to Foxtail Bakeshop, open for breakfast and lunch, serving from scratch savory dishes, pastries

Lisa Sipe

The Box Factory is booming with new restaurants: Fix & Repeat, Foxtail Bakery, Valentine’s Deli, Riff Taproom, and River Pig Saloon.

and cakes. You can find feel-good, healthy dishes at the trendy cafe, Fix and Repeat, dishing out juices, smoothies, toast and macro bowls. Rustic bar, River Pig Saloon, with an original location in Portland’s Pearl District, serves typical pub fare for lunch and dinner with a good cocktail menu and televisions that broadcast sports. Lunch options include Valentine’s Deli, with a simple yet delicious menu of sandwiches, soups, salads and simple desserts like a fruity pebble rice crispy treat. The newest player is Riff Taproom, a coffee bar that’s more like a brewpub, serving interesting fare and variations of cold brew coffee that take the breakfast beverage into the evening. Food cart lots explode Bend’s east side saw the biggest food cart growth with the addition of River’s Place across from Costco and On Tap across from St. Charles Medical Center. River’s Place has an indoor tap house with 14 taps, three big screen televisions and five food trucks: Hogan’s Hoagie Stop, The Jerk Kings, Red Road Pizza Company, We’re the Würst, and Wubba’s BBQ Shack. On Tap has an enclosed covered patio with heaters, 30 taps, bar seating, two outdoor fire pits and six food trucks: Barrio, CURBBQ, Himalayan Bites, The Bleu Rooster, PHILLYSTYLE and Bohemian Roastery. Across from The Box Factory on Arizona Avenue is The Podski, a food truck with rotating taps surrounded by six other food trucks: Austin Street Tacos, EMW: East Meets West, Thailandia, The Tin Pig and Big Ski’s Pierogi. The food trucks surround the outdoor dining area, making The Podski a more intimate experience than other food cart lots.

St. Jack at Suttle Lake Lodge Suttle Lake Lodge continues to host popular Pacific Northwest guest chefs. On Saturday, Jan. 26, Chef Aaron Barnett from award-winning St. Jack Restaurant and Bar in Portland will prepare a meal paired with Crowley Wines. St. Jack is known for its rustic French cuisine inspired by the traditions and flavors of Lyon, France. Crowley Wines are made in the tradition of Burgundy and will be available a la carte. This boozy dinner pairs well with a lovely overnight at the lodge and will sell out quickly, so don’t wait to buy tickets. St Jack & Crowley at The Suttle Lodge & Boathouse Sat.

Eggnog Three Ways (plus a vegan version) The holiday cocktail for prosperity & good health

Lisa Sipe

On the fence about eggnog? A from-scratch recipe could change your mind. The flavors are more vibrant and less sugary.

ot everyone loves eggnog, but for those who do, the luxurious, rich and creamy spiked cocktail personifies the winter holidays. Historically, the beverage went by the name milk punch—or the slightly more descriptive egg milk punch. You might think you can call it an egg flip, but that would mean the nog was missing cream. For commoners in the 18th century, eggnog wasn’t on the menu much. Milk, eggs and expensive spirits were for the wealthy who used eggnog in toasts for prosperity and good health. Recipes typically include cream, sugar, eggs, spices and spirits. As Alton Brown has pointed out, based on the ingredients, eggnog is “almost identical to ice cream.” There are options when it comes to which spirit to use in eggnog. Decide based on taste or geographical inspiration. In Britain, people use brandy, madeira or sherry. In the United States, rum became popular because it was less expensive than brandy—but when rum became expensive, whiskey and bourbon gained popularity. Barrel aging makes a spirit like gin another good choice because it drinks like a whiskey. Preparation time made store-bought eggnog popular. Making a cooked eggnog can take over three hours. If you aren’t scared of a few raw eggs, this fresh eggnog recipe is quick. Easiest Eggnog Cocktail 2 oz Gompers Old Tom Barrel-Aged Gin 4 oz Eggnog (store bought) Fresh grated nutmeg Combine gin and eggnog in a cocktail shaker with ice. Shake and serve. Garnish with grated nutmeg. Fresh Eggnog 1 oz Gingerbread simple syrup 1 egg 1 oz heavy cream 1 ¾ oz Cascade Street Distillery Broken Top Bourbon Fresh grated nutmeg

Combine all ingredients in cocktail shaker. Shake. Add ice, shake again and strain into glass. Garnish with fresh grated nutmeg. Vegan Variation: Soak a cup of raw cashews in boiling water for 30 minutes or overnight. Drain the cashews and add to blender with two cups of water, blend until smooth. Add a 15-ounce can of fullfat coconut milk and blend until smooth. Use 3 ounces of this mixture to replace the eggs and heavy cream. Rum is recommended with this variation because it pairs beautifully with coconut milk. Gingerbread Simple Syrup 1 cup sugar 1 cup water 1 stick cinnamon 2 tbsp. black strap molasses 1 tbsp. grated ginger ¼ tsp. ground nutmeg 1 tsp. whole peppercorn ½ tsp. whole cloves ½ tsp. cardamom pods ½ tsp. whole allspice Combine all ingredients in a saucepan, simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Let cool, strain through a fine sieve. Keeps for one month refrigerated. Cooked Eggnog 2 cups milk 1/2 tsp. vanilla 1/2 tsp. nutmeg 1/2 tsp. cinnamon 6 large egg yolks 1/2 cup sugar 1 cup heavy cream 1/3 cup Cascade Alchemy Bourbon Add milk, cinnamon, nutmeg and vanilla to a saucepan on low heat. Slowly bring the mixture to a low boil. In a large bowl, whisk egg yolks with sugar. Temper the eggs by slowly adding hot milk mixture in batches, whisk until combined. Return mixture to saucepan and cook on medium until slightly thick. Remove from heat, add heavy cream and bourbon. Chill. Serve with grated nutmeg and cinnamon garnish.

AQUAMAN: The DC movies have been pretty

terrible so far (with the exception of “Wonder Woman”), so here’s hoping “Conjuring” director James Wan can take a goofy hero that talks to fish and make him badass. Jason Momoa is a beast, so fingers crossed. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Redmond Cinema

BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY: The biopic fol-

lowing the rise of Queen and the life of Freddie Mercury. At times wild entertaining and ridiculously simplistic, the film still has a magnetic central performance from Rami Malek to carry it through the rough patches. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

BUMBLEBEE: Just what we needed: a

prequel to the “Transformers” franchise. Even though the trailers make it look like an updated version of “Herbie the Love Bug,” director Travis Knight comes from Laika, the brilliant animation studio out of Hillsboro, Ore. Cautiously optimistic? Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Redmond Cinema

DR. SEUSS’ THE GRINCH: Introducing The Grinch to an entirely new generation, this version features the voices of Benedict Cumberbatch, Rashida Jones and Angela freaking Lansbury! It can’t be worse than the Jim Carrey one, can it? No one is that cruel. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

THE MULE: Clint Eastwood stars and directs

this tale of an elderly horticulturalist who becomes a drug mule for a Mexican cartel. Surprisingly funny and light, “The Mule” takes a brutally serious topic and turns it into a lark. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House

THE NUN: A part of the “Conjuring” Cinematic Universe,” this tells the story of a haunted Romanian nunnery and the heroes that try to re-consecrate the grounds. Surprisingly creepy, “The Nun” is another solid entry in the remarkably entertaining franchise. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX ONCE UPON A DEADPOOL: This is just

Dumbledore and Grindelwald is the real meat of this period in the history of J.K. Rowling’s Wizarding World. Yet somehow, we’re still stuck with the lamest character Rowling has ever dreamed up: Newt Scamander. Still, it’s worth checking out as the mythology is quite fascinating. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

Silverman and John C. Reilly are both back playing the roles they were born for as video game characters unhappy with their strictly programmed routines. The original was a lovely surprise, so here’s hoping Disney can find a way to make lightning strike twice. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

GREEN BOOK: A well intentioned but tone-

SHOPLIFTERS: This Japanese drama follows a poverty stricken family forced to steal to survive. The best foreign film of the year. Tin Pan Theater

this winter and spring,

Top 10 Movies (and Other Stuff) of 2018 ’Twas Another Fine Year By Jared Rasic

10 “Mandy” Nicolas Cage lights a cigarette off of a flaming severed head a few minutes after snorting a huge pile of cocaine off of a battle axe he forged before hunting down the cult that took his wife. The movie isn’t perfect, but it was the most fun theatrical experience I had all year. 9 “BlackkKlansman” Spike Lee finds

his anger again while pulling off a mainstream crowd pleaser at the same time. The film still doesn’t carry the weight of “Do the Right Thing,” but it’s a step back in the right direction.

8 “The Little Stranger” A crumbling

old manor house in the country is the setting for a lovely story of class and rage disguised as a ghost story. The moments of creepiness are never as terrifying as watching the idle rich slowly lose their minds.

7 “Lean on Pete” What starts off as

a simple story of a boy and his horse becomes a heart-rending look at what happens to a teenager without a support system in rural Portland. Not a fun movie to watch, but one that’s impossible to shake off, even months after viewing.

6 “Thoroughbreds” What could have turned into another bleak look at disaffected youth was instead a darkly funny comedy of murder, manners and mental illness. The final performance of Anton Yelchin carries this movie all the way to its inevitable conclusion.

5 “Sorry to Bother You” Writer/Direc-

tor Boots Riley has made something so startlingly original that his anti-capitalist screed almost seems revolutionary. This has all the anger Spike Lee used to have, combined with the batshit absurdism of “Being John Malkovich.”

4 “Blindspotting” A beautiful mix of hip-hop lyricism set across three days in the life of a man on parole who saw a cop shoot an unarmed black man in the back. The final five minutes of this film will make you revel in the power of movies. 3 “Tully” Jason Reitman and Dia-

blo Cody have made a movie about

motherhood and growing up that feels like a love letter to moms everywhere. Charlize Theron sneakily gives one of her best performances while making it look completely effortless.

2 “Hereditary” Even with all the hype built up around this horror masterpiece, the film still managed to put ice in my blood for days afterward. This movie simply asks its audience to live up to their potential…even if that potential is demonic and creepy. 1 “First Reformed” Ethan Hawke gives the performance of his lifetime in this flawless look at an alcoholic priest confronted with violent extremism. Haunting, unforgettable and up there with films like “Taxi Driver” and “King of Comedy” as a funhouse mirror into a broken man. Worst Movie of the year “Super Troopers 2”

Best of the Rest: Best TV Show: “The Terror” Jared Harris is hypnotic as a doomed captain aboard a snowed-in exploratory vessel, wintering down as he and his crew search for the Northwest Passage. Flawlessly acted and directed, “The Terror” puts the Arctic chill in the bones of anyone who watches. Best Podcast: “Disgraceland” I love me some true crime podcasts, but so does just about everyone else in America, which might explain why we’ve been bombarded by them over the last couple of years. That’s why “Disgraceland” is such a breath of fresh air: it’s a true crime podcast focused just on the bad behavior of rock stars. The episode on Jerry Lee Lewis will sicken you while enlightening you at the same time.

Shiny New Things

Need something new to do in the outdoors? Let these activity options give you some new inspiration for the New Year By Caitlin Richmond

Snowless sports Even if our winter is another sad, snowless one, there are still plenty of options to get out and get active. A New Year’s Day run If you want to start out the new year giving your aerobic system a workout instead of nursing a hangover, Central Oregon Running Klub is having a New Year’s Day run starting at Spoken Moto. You might find some running buddies to help encourage you throughout the year. You may even find out that running with a hangover isn’t the worst thing you could do to yourself. Or maybe it is, and you’ll have learned your first lesson of 2019. »» centraloregonrunningklub.org

A runners’ group In the event that your first run of 2019 inspired you to keep running, the Resolution Runners group at FootZone might be what you need to stay motivated and on track. The running group

(

runs for eight weeks and allows you to run and get some swag. There are four runs a week, all at different times to accommodate all types of work schedules, and each run is an opportunity to earn points toward a prize. »» footzonebend.com/happenings/weekly-runs/

Bend Trail series prep Are races more of an incentive for you? If that’s the case, keep training and then run the four races that are part of the Bend Trail Series, which kicks off in June. This is another opportunity to earn some swag while you also earn your post-race beer. »» gobeyondracing.com/races/bend-trailseries/

Snow Sports Cross your fingers for more snow than we’ve been getting. Learn to Nordic ski clinics Cross country skiing is a relatively lowrisk snow sport and will allow you to cover more ground in less time. If you’re a newbie, the Learn to Ski day hosted by XC Oregon Jan. 13 might be a helpful resource. Pick one of three 30-minute mini clinics at Meissner Sno-park and get some tips to improve your technique. »» xcoregon.org

Rain or snow, the region offers plenty of ways to tap into outdoor activities in 2019.

the evening of Saturday, Jan. 19. This event is ideal if you are ski-less but want to ski more, since you can rent skis at no charge beforehand. »» pinemountainsports.com

Meissner Luminaria Want to join in a long-standing winter tradition? Check out the Meissner Luminaria Feb. 2, where the trail to the snow shelter is lined with hundreds of paper bags with lit candles inside. Ski or snowshoe along the illuminated trails from 5 to 9pm. »» meissnernordic.org

Snowshoeing Tumalo Mountain, Tumalo Falls and most sno-parks are go-to spots for snowshoers, offering a variety of terrain. Tumalo Mountain will make you work for your unobstructed views of the Cascades, while Tumalo Falls, Meissner and Swampy will offer flatter options. If you head up Tumalo Mountain on an

overcast day, bring direction-finding equipment (and the rest of the 10 essentials) with you to avoid a long trek along the highway back to your car. SheJumps intro avalanche course For female-identifying people interested in hitting the slopes who want to avoid lift ticket prices, backcountry skiing could be an option. It’s definitely more effort than resort skiing, but perks include unskied lines and awesome views. An avalanche safety course is a necessity if you plan on going out without an experienced partner, and signing up for the Intro to Avalanche safety course in late February will help you get prepared. SheJumps has partnered with Oregon Ski Guides to offer an intro course, which would be a precursor to an American Institute for Avalanche Research and Education three-day course. »» oregonskiguides.com/avalanche-education/shejumps-intro-avalanche-safety/

It’s called the Flying Nest, made of six shipping containers stacked on top of each other and connected by a terraced walkway. One is set up at the Avoriaz Ski Resort and rents for 150 Euros (about $171.) While this may sound spendy for a shipping container room, it’s much less costly than other hotel rooms at the

I go the extra mile, and it’s never crowded.

I’m the female author of a funny memoir about sex addiction and relationships. Unfortunately, I now have male readers asking me on dates via email, even if they don’t live in this country! To put it politely, few are men I’d ever be interested in. Also, it feels creepy to be asked out because somebody read all about my sex life. How do I kindly turn them down? —Disturbed

541.383.0800 advertise@bendnest.com

Some will say you should be flattered that these men are showing interest. These people don’t quite get that men hitting on you because they read your sex addiction memoir are appealing on the level of a barista who hits on you by drawing a penis and a question mark in your latte. As for your observation that most of these guys are attempting to date out of their league, men actually seem to have evolved to try to do that—to be all “As I see it, those Victoria’s Secret Angels just haven’t met the right chronically unemployed, creatively hygienic neckbeard who still lives with his mother.” This seemingly delusional overconfidence in men on the prowl aligns with how evolutionary psychologists Martie Haselton and David Buss observe that both men and women seem to have evolved to sometimes perceive the world inaccurately—seeing our opportunities or potential danger in beneficially distorted ways. This sometimes involves over-perception—erring on the side of seeing more than what’s actually there—and it sometimes involves under-perception, seeing less than what’s actually there. Because, for a woman, having sex can lead to nine months of soccer ball-like ankles and other pregnancy fun, plus (eventually) a child to feed, women seem to have evolved a protective bias toward underperceiving men’s level of commitment. Men, on the other hand, have a chance to pass on their genes every time they have sex. So they tend to have a sexual-overperception bias— seeing signs of mere friendliness or even utter apathy as “This babe wants me! Yepperoo. Hot for bridge troll!” That’s probably what’s going on here -- men erring on the side of “ya never know!” Let them down with dignity. Treat them as if they have value as men and human beings, with something like “I wish I could, but I’m sorry to say, I have a firm policy that I never date readers.” But perhaps a better first option

would be to answer only the part of the email about the book, totally ignoring the part where they gracefully ask you out: “I really enjoyed your book, and now I’d like to enjoy you!”

Remorse Code

Could you please educate me in the nuances of “I’m sorry”? My girlfriend sometimes says my apologies don’t count because of the tone of voice I use when I say “I’m sorry.” She said I sound “resentful instead of apologetic.” Shouldn’t she just accept the apology and not split hairs like this? —Man In Apology Doghouse Amy Alkon

Ideally, your tone of voice in apologizing simply communicates “I’m sorry” and not “I’m sorry you’re such a total idiot about this.” Whenever you speak, the emotional packaging—your tone and attitude—is an integral part of the message. That’s because, as evolutionary psychologist Laith Al-Shawaf and his colleagues explain, one function of human emotions is to act as signals, broadcasting our feelings, perceptions, and intentions. Accordingly, an apology in a snarly package—words of regret delivered in a resentful tone—reads not as an apology but as an evasion of responsibility in an apology suit. For an apology to count for us psychologically—allow us to let go of our hurt and anger and move on—it needs to be backed with sincere remorse. This isn’t to say you have to throw yourself weeping at a person’s feet because you left the toothpaste cap-free for the 500 millionth time. Your tone just needs to translate to a sort of pledge to try to do better—which suggests that you value the person and the relationship, which allows them to trust you going forward. But let’s say you’re snarling “sorry!” because you feel whatever was expected of you (that you fell short of) was ultimately unfair. In that case, it’s better to instead say, “I see you’re feeling upset” or “hurt”—“...and I think there’s a misunderstanding here that we need to discuss.” If things are too heated in the moment, you can ask to talk in a few minutes or an hour or whatever. This tack is sure to have a far better outcome than the classic unapologetic apology—“I insincerely apologize for the thing you say I did”—which tends to be met with “I’m so sorry you’ll be taking this mildewy army blanket and going out and sleeping on the lawn chair... indefinitely.”

ASTROLOGY By Rob Brezsny

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): A hundred years ago, most astronomers thought there was just one galaxy in the universe: our Milky Way. Other models for the structure of the universe were virtually heretical. But in the 1920s, astronomer Edwin Hubble produced research that proved the existence of many more galaxies. Today the estimate is that there are at least 400 billion. I wonder what currently unimaginable possibilities will be obvious to our ancestors a hundred years from now. Likewise, I wonder what currently unforeseen truths will be fully available to you by the end of 2019. My guess: more than in any other previous year of your life. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Author Elizabeth Gilbert offers advice for those who long for a closer relationship with the Supreme Being: “Look for God like a man with his head on fire looks for water.” I’ll expand that approach so it applies to you when you’re in quest of any crucial life-enhancing experience. If you genuinely believe that a particular adventure or relationship or transformation is key to your central purpose, it’s not enough to be mildly enthusiastic about it. You really do need to seek your heart’s desire in the way people with their heads on fire look for water. 2019 will be prime time for you to embody this understanding.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): I suspect that in 2019 you’ll be able to blend a knack for creating more stability with an urge to explore and seek greater freedom. How might this unusual confluence be expressed in practical ways? Maybe you’ll travel to reconnect with your ancestral roots. Or perhaps a faraway ally or influence will help you feel more at home in the world. It’s possible you’ll establish a stronger foundation, which will in turn bolster your courage and inspire you to break free of a limitation. What do you think?

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): On the average, a total eclipse of the sun happens every 18 months. And how often is a total solar eclipse visible from a specific location on the planet? Typically, once every 375 years. In 2019, the magic moment will occur on July 2 for people living in Chile and Argentina. But I believe that throughout the coming year, Tauruses all over the world will experience other kinds of rare and wonderful events at a higher rate than usual. Not eclipses, but rather divine interventions, mysterious miracles, catalytic epiphanies, unexpected breakthroughs, and amazing graces. Expect more of the marvelous than you’re accustomed to. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): “The world’s full of people who have stopped listening to themselves,” wrote mythologist Joseph Campbell. It’s imperative that you NOT be one of those folks. 2019 should be the Year of Listening Deeply to Yourself. That means being on high alert for your inner inklings, your unconscious longings, and the still, small voice at the heart of your destiny. If you do that, you’ll discover I’m right when I say that you’re smarter than you realize.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Jackson Pollock is regarded as a pioneer in the technique of drip painting, which involves drizzling and splashing

paint on canvases that lie on the floor. It made him famous. But the truth is, Pollock got inspired to pursue what became known as his signature style only after he saw an exhibit by the artist Janet Sobel, who was the real pioneer. I bring this to your attention, because I see 2019 as a year when the Janet Sobel-like aspects of your life will get their due. Overdue appreciation will arrive. Credit you have deserved but haven’t fully garnered will finally come your way. You’ll be acknowledged and recognized in surprising ways.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): As the crow flies, Wyoming is almost a thousand miles from the Pacific Ocean and more than a thousand miles from the Gulf of Mexico, which is part of the Atlantic Ocean. Now here’s a surprise: in the northwest corner of Wyoming, the North Two Ocean Creek divides into two tributaries, one of which ultimately flows to the Pacific and one that reaches the Gulf. So an enterprising fish could conceivably swim from one ocean to the other via this waterway. I propose that we make North Two Ocean Creek your official metaphor for 2019. It will symbolize the turning point you’ll be at in your life; it will remind you that you’ll have the power to launch an epic journey in one of two directions.

VOLUME 22 ISSUE 52 / DECEMBER 27, 2018 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): A typical fluffy white cumulus cloud weighs 216,000 pounds. A dark cumulonimbus storm cloud is 106 million pounds, almost 490 times heavier. Why? Because it’s filled with far more water than the white cloud. So which is better, the fluffy cumulus or the stormy cumolonimbus? Neither, of course. We might sometimes prefer the former over the latter because it doesn’t darken the sky as much or cause the inconvenience of rain. But the truth is, the cumulonimbus is a blessing; a substantial source of moisture; a gift to growing things. I mention this because I suspect that for you, 2019 will have more metaphorical resemblances to the cumulonimbus than the cumulus.

2019

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): I have come to the conclusion that softening your relationship with perfectionism will be a key assignment in 2019. With this in mind, I offer you observations from wise people who have studied the subject. 1. “The perfect is the enemy of the good.” —Voltaire 2. “Perfection is a stick with which to beat the possible.” —Rebecca Solnit 3. Perfectionism is “the high-end version of fear.” — Elizabeth Gilbert 4. “Nothing is less efficient than perfectionism.” —Elizabeth Gilbert 4. “It’s better to live your own life imperfectly than to imitate someone else’s perfectly.” —Elizabeth Gilbert

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): In 1682, Peter Alexeyevich became co-Tsar of Russia. He was ten years old. His 24-year-old half-sister Sophia had a hole cut in the back of his side of the dual throne. That way she could sit behind him, out of sight, and whisper guidance as he discussed political matters with allies. I’d love it if you could wangle a comparable arrangement for yourself in 2019. Are there wise confidants or mentors or helpers from whom you could draw continuous counsel? Seek them out.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): The body of the violin has two f-shaped holes on either side of the strings. They enable the sound that resonates inside the instrument to be projected outwardly. A thousand years ago, the earliest ancestor of the modern violin had round holes. Later they became half-moons, then c-shaped, and finally evolved into the f-shape. Why the change? Scientific analysis reveals that the modern form allows more air to be pushed out from inside the instrument, thereby producing a more powerful sound. My analysis of your life in 2019 suggests it will be a time to make an upgrade from your metaphorical equivalent of the c-shaped holes to the f-shaped holes. A small shift like that will enable you to generate more power and resonance.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Sagittarian singer-songwriter Sia has achieved great success, garnering nine Grammy nominations and amassing a $20 million fortune. Among the superstars for whom she has composed hit tunes are Beyoncé, Rihanna, and Flo Rida. But she has also had failures. Top recording artists like Adele and Shakira have commissioned her to write songs for them only to subsequently turn down what she created. In 2016, Sia got sweet revenge. She released an album in which she herself sang many of those rejected songs. It has sold more than two million copies. Do you, too, know what it’s like to have your gifts and skills ignored or unused or rebuffed, Sagittarius? If so, the coming months will be an excellent time to express them for your own benefit, as Sia did.

A Cannabis Year in Review

Whereas a cannabis columnist looks back at the industry

By Josh Jardine

s 2018 draws to a close, let’s follow up on some stories, assess where the cannabis industry stands—both Oregon’s and on a national scale—and what we might expect in the new year. Attorney General elf fired: Nation rejoices In January, Jeff Sessions rescinded the Cole Memorandum, which had offered states a semblance of protection from federal intervention regarding cannabis programs. Sessions continued to be a pathetic clown at every turn toward the industry. Trump fired him in November. He’s currently awaiting a fast-track EZ Pass for eternal damnation. Mitch McConnell helps hemp McConnell was successful in getting his hemp decriminalization measure attached to the Farm Bill, a major step for CBD and other hemp-derived products. The bill has the potential to create tens of thousands of jobs, with CBD gaining popularity across the country. Sweet Leaf: They put you down and shut you out In August, the extremely successful Colorado-based dispensary chain Sweet Leaf, which had over 25 stores and was ringing up sales of over $5 million per month, watched its empire crumble when authorities charged them with “looping”—a practice of selling multiple times to a single individual within 24 hours, allowing them to exceed possession limits. On Nov. 29, two former managers were sentenced to 30 days in jail as part of a plea deal to assist ongoing state and federal investigations. They were the first to be sentenced, although Sweet Leaf’s three owners are under an ongoing investigation and have already paid a collective $2 million in penalties and back taxes, in addition to banishment from working in the Colorado cannabis industry for 15 years. My posse’s gettin’ big, and my posse’s gettin’ bigger There are currently 10 states and the District of Columbia with recreational cannabis programs, and 33 with medical ones. This rapid growth shows no sign of abatement. Steven Hawkins, executive director of the Marijuana Policy Project, thinks 2020 is going to be a remarkable high-water mark, with 15 states potentially in the running to pass recreational cannabis programs. He believes states

including New Jersey, New York, Illinois, Delaware, Rhode Island, New Mexico and Connecticut will pass such programs, buoyed by a desire for the jobs and tax revenue, and anticipating finding widespread support. With a record 66 percent of Americans now supporting cannabis legalization, according to an October Gallup poll, the outlook is favorable to seeing close to half the nation’s states with recreational cannabis programs. Canada, where the pines and maple grow, now has weed. Lots of weed The True North, strong and free, became the first G-7 country to pass a nationwide recreational cannabis program this year. It joins Uruguay in that global distinction. Analysts believe Canada will see sales of $4.34 billion (Canadian dollars) in 2019. That number may need adjustment, as the initial weeks of sales surpassed estimates—a contributing factor to some provinces facing shortages so severe they were forced to reduce the number of days they stayed open, or temporarily shut down altogether. But supplies are being quickly replenished, and donut sales at Tim Horton’s locations are (assumingly) waaaaaaay up. Pacific Wonderland cannabis faces challenges The hard-working people who grow, process and sell you cannabis are facing some intensely challenging times, with prices falling an estimated 50 percent or more at the wholesale level. An overabundance of weed sounds like a dream, but it’s become a nightmare with wide-reaching impacts. Oversupply has garnered an increasingly strident attitude of oversight and enforcement. In June, the State of Oregon put a temporary hold on processing any new grower license applications, and between September and October, performed firsttime statewide inspections of outside recreational growers, in an effort to stem diversion. It resulted in over 40 grower licenses in jeopardy of being rescinded due to numerous violations. Winners include consumers—and the state. Although retail prices have dropped as low as $40 an ounce, overall sales are like you after scarfing a mystery edible: much higher than expected. The sales in 2018 are expected to top $543 million, a 29 percent increase that well outperformed analysts’ predictions.
