It’s true: The national media has been obsessed with Donald Trump and Russia. Here in the world of local news, however, we’ve been keeping our noses to the ground. In the wake of the Mueller report, it’s been a difficult time for national news outlets. Ahead of Attorney General William Barr’s eventual release of at least part of the report, Barr has said the findings show there was no collusion between Russia and the Trump campaign during the 2016 presidential election. The president is using this period to further vilify a press he has repeatedly called an “enemy of the people.” In the wake of Barr’s initial findings on the report, many have jumped on Trump’s bandwagon, condemning the press for covering Russiagate too copiously, and for having pundits—not the same as reporters—weigh in too heavily on what the outcomes might be. They protest that national news outlets have focused too much on investigations of the president, at the expense of covering stories of import in places outside Washington, D.C., and New York. Meanwhile, local news outlets continue to do the work we’ve been tasked with doing all along—reporting on local events and watch-dogging elected officials, right here in Central Oregon. And when we hold local governments accountable, it’s bound to make some people uncomfortable. This from Michael Schudson, a sociologist, historian and professor at Columbia University, writing in the Columbia Journalism Review: “Perhaps it’s not surprising to learn that journalism’s self-defined mission of ‘holding government accountable’ is hurting trust. In the past 40 years, ‘accountability journalism’ has come to assert itself as a defining feature of mainstream newsrooms. The news is much less deferential than it once was to institutions and people in power. That may be good, but it also means that a lot of people are going to distrust the media, particularly when their favorite politicians or the parties they identify with are critically appraised or openly confronted by journalistic investigation, information, or opinion.” In these discussions of media trust, it is easy for readers to associate the entire media industry with the national outlets

that have vilified Trump. But locally, we have plenty of other things to do. Some news outlets, locally and nationally, are struggling to stay afloat financially. But we don’t correlate that with the debate regarding press coverage of Trump, any more than we blame it on readers’ lack of interest in subscriptions, or the rise of social media. In a cultural climate in which the media is vilified nationally, consider the words of Neil Brown, president of the journalism training school, the Poynter Institute: “It’s OK to disagree or criticize. But to use words like treason and to seek retribution for stories that one doesn’t agree with is offensive and utterly unacceptable in this society.” To continue to bring readers a window on their local world, we get creative, leveraging every bit of journalistic might we can muster. Case in point: Our newspaper has recently joined Oregon Public Broadcasting’s regional news network, aimed at sharing stories among media outlets statewide. Where our resources fall short, partnerships such as these can fill in gaps. As a local newspaper, we do things the public can’t do, in service of the public. Following the last election, we invited members of both the local Republican and Democratic parties into our office, in an effort of reporting accurately on their activities moving forward. During election seasons, we invite political candidates from all sides in for endorsement interviews, getting to know each one personally before we endorse them—or not. Readers have the right to disagree with our take—but in a media landscape in which just two newspapers in the community endorse candidates, each serves as an important mechanism for comparing and contrasting. In addition to being watchdogs on local government, our mission is to be engaging, and to engage our readers in discussions of local issues. We welcome a variety of comments on our website and social media channels, as a method of having a pulse on our community. Crucial to our survival is our belief as a newspaper that we don’t stand above the community we report on. We ARE the community we report on, and it is our duty to ensure a fair, equitable, accountable and transparent public process for all community members—even if that makes some people uncomfortable.

SUPPORT HB 2015, THE EQUAL ACCESS TO ROADS ACT

“Jim Crow” represented a formal, codified system of racial apartheid that most Oregonians associate with “a long time ago in the south.” Racial order was enforced with laws that affected almost every aspect of daily life. We like to think of ourselves as moderate, law-abiding folk far from the struggles of racism, but Oregon’s history, from frontier days to the present, paints a very different picture. Let’s change that, and support HB 2015, the Equal Access to Roads Act. House Bill 2015 would make standard licenses available to all drivers who can meet the requirements to drive regardless of their citizenship or immigration status. Many states, including California and Washington, already issue licenses to drive to all residents who meet the requirements for safety, insurance, identification, and residency, regardless of immigration status. Their policies have been implemented successfully, with significant benefits for public safety and community cohesion. Preventing Oregonians from getting a driver’s license because of their citizenship or immigration status puts our immigrant

BLACK DIAMOND BIKE LANES

Who needs Phil’s trail system or Maston for an early spring mountain bike ride when you can ride …or should I say “need” to ride …your mountain bike right here in the heart of Bend? It has been a month since our last major snowstorm, and weeks since the roads have been clear of snow. Automobile travel lanes are clear of debris and gravel … and it all now seems to have settled in the bike lanes. Better keep the road bike parked. As I write this letter, and without exception I have seen, every single bike lane on all major transportation routes in the middle of our wonderful city are clogged with gravel and other debris from the curb to the white stripe, leaving the dedicated bicycling commuters, shoppers and recreationists with little choice but to put their lives in harm’s way. I am simply at a loss for words to describe my despair at our collective unwillingness to embrace the simple, and economically and socially sound, responsibility of making bike lanes safe and accessible. Here’s an idea: following the next major snow storm let’s clear the sidewalks and bike lanes first! Leave the car at home and take a bus if you don’t want to walk or ride. —Kevin Tanski

GUEST OPINION WOMEN’S ISSUE

A Letter in Response to Rick Burns’ Affront by the Source Weekly’s Women’s Issue We hear you, Mr. Burns, that it can be uncomfortable in this day and age to be a middle-aged white male. You are feeling the effects of shifting societal views on power and gender, and what equality actually looks like and means. There is a lot of uprising going on. We individually read your letter to the Editor dated March 6th where you admonished the Source for publishing a Women’s Issue and, while we had our separate reactions, we did collectively agree on one thing for certain. It IS time for a ‘Bring Your Son to Work Day’. We would love for our sons to witness a typical day in the lives of their mothers, aunts, female friends. Per your suggestion, our sons would meet their mother’s male co-worker, doing exactly the same job, who is being paid 118% more (assuming both are white). [Bureau of Labor Statistics - 2018] They would take in what their mother hears on a regular basis, “If you would just smile more, then ______”. We’d love to hear what they think that means. They might, if they watched closely, witness their mother being casually groped in passing. As a liberal voter, you may already know that 33% of women will experience some sort of sexual violence in their lifetime, but did you know that eight percent of female rape victims were raped at work? [National Sexual Violence Resource Center] They may, in a meeting, listen to their

mother assert a creative answer to a problem, only for her statement to go unnoticed until a man states the very same thing – and gets the credit for it. Most of the undersigned work for organizations that are predominately female-run, and therefore do not currently experience these issues as often in the workplace. We each, however, have fresh, daily “because I’m a woman” wounds that we carry around as we navigate our worlds. You might carry wounds too. Yet the difference is that your wounds are most likely not based simply on the fact that you were born male. Per your letter, we are enjoying some of the best times we’ve ever had as women with respect to representation in positions of political power. And yet… The United States is 50.8% female per the most recent US Census Bureau estimates. Even after the most recent elections: 76% of our Congress is male. 75% of our Senate is male. 77% of our House of Representatives is male. 72% of elected state-wide executive offices are held by males. 71% in State Legislatures are male. 79% of U.S. Mayors (in cities over 30,000 in population) are male. [Rutgers Eagleton Institute of Politics] You see, we are not equally represented in positions of power and are far from the position of majority in power. Yet. We will get there when our sons come to work with us and enter the work force themselves valuing women’s accomplishments as the standout achievements they are. Would you like to come to work with us, Mr. Burns? Your cat can come, too. —The BABs: Jasmine Barnett, Amanda Bird, Donna Burklo, Kelly Cannon-Miller, Cheryl Howard

Wasted in Bend: Electronics

Suzanne Johnson

The movement to manage potentially toxic e-waste is growing WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / APRIL 4, 2019 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

by Suzanne Johnson

hat’s in your junk drawer of outdated gadgets? Mine holds a digital camera, two iPod nanos and a shuffle, a broken portable DVD player and dozens of chargers. Piles of electronic waste keep growing, even as devices get smaller and faster. But the movement to manage e-waste is growing, too.

The worry about e-waste Producing electronic devices requires a mix of hazardous metals: lead, mercury, cadmium, plus a host of chemicals such as lithium oxides and flame retardants in batteries. When disposed of improperly, they can create a toxic soup harmful to soil, water and people. Many metals used in electronics are valuable, including gold, silver, copper, and rare earth metals (surprisingly abundant, but difficult to extract and refine.) Tossing a circuit board in the trash means burying a tiny bit of treasure, and those tiny bits add up. The Environmental Protection Agency estimates that recycling 1 million smartphones would recover 75 pounds of gold, 772 pounds of silver, and over 17 tons of copper. Yet Americans discard millions of phones each year. While the EPA strongly encourages e-waste recycling, only cathode ray tubes from older televisions are federally regulated. Congress has discussed but failed to pass regulations on shipping toxic e-waste to developing countries. One driving force in monitoring and exposing such hazards is the Basel Action Network. The Seattle-based organization grew from the 1989 United Nations Basel Convention on environmental justice. BAN has defined standards for recycling and has sleuthed out

companies that continue to bypass these standards—including some in Oregon. Oregon E-Cycles In 2007, just as LCD flat screens became affordable and rear-projection televisions were filling landfills, Oregon passed its Electronics Recycling Law. This law banned televisions, computers, and LCD screens from landfills, and required manufacturers to recycle their products, or pay to support the Oregon E-Cycles program. Oregon E-Cycles provides free e-waste recycling to consumers, who can drop unwanted electronics at collection points statewide. The e-waste is processed by certified recycling services in Portland, and often sold overseas for dismantling and recovery of materials—yet certification does not guarantee the recycling is done safely or sustainably. Total Reclaim Inc., a recycling business working with Oregon E-Cycles, paid the state of Oregon $553,750 in February to settle a Department of Environmental Quality violation. Working with BAN, the state found that TRI had shipped millions of pounds of potentially toxic e-waste to unregulated facilities in Hong Kong. URT Solutions, based in Clackamas, currently collects and processes e-waste from Central Oregon for the Oregon E-Cycles program. URT Solutions has been certified by BAN to meet their e-stewards standards for safe and sustainable recycling sites, both in the U.S. and abroad. E-Cycles dropsites in Central Oregon include Deschutes Recycling, Opportunity Foundation and most Goodwill donation sites. Many businesses, including Best Buy, Simply Mac and Willstech

Smartphone components are separated for sale or recycling at The iPhone Guy.

Computer Solution, also accept small devices, cords and batteries. Repair on the rise Perhaps more ideal than recycling electronics is keeping gadgets in working order, extending their usability. In the case of smartphones, mining metals, producing batteries and powering factories does far more environmental damage than actual cellphone use. The longer the lifespan of each device, the smaller the impact. This spring, Oregon joined 17 other states in considering a Right to Repair bill, which would make it easier to fix electronics. HB2688 would require manufacturers to allow access to service manuals or tools to repair digital equipment such as phones and tablets, and larger equipment such as appliances and tractors. Nicholas Baumann, owner of The iPhone Guy in Bend, offers a local option for smartphone repair. He fixes dozens of smartphones and tablets daily, mostly replacing screens and batteries.

Baumann also accepts unusable devices and can sometimes offer cash back. “A lot of old phones still have value. You just have to know the market,” he explained. After dismantling the phones into parts—cameras, batteries, screens and backings—he finds businesses or organizations for each component. “Almost every part of a smartphone can be re-used in some way,” said Baumann. Closing the loop on e-waste Recycling and repair might never prevent all e-waste—but a growing shift at the corporate level, toward closed-loop production models, could help. Apple and Dell are both moving toward circular supply chains, where finished products turn into raw materials for new products. Apple’s new robot, Daisy, efficiently removes and separates metals from old devices. Dell uses the plastics from old computers to make new ones. Both companies take back their products for recycling.

Greenways Get Going

As pedestrians and cyclists are being hit by cars in near-record numbers, some say Bend’s Neighborhood Greenways program is welcome—but doesn’t go far enough By Chris Miller safety as cars approach the Greenways.” Phase one is slated to start about April 17 and finish about June 1, according to Rory Rowan, project engineer for the City of Bend. It will add speed humps, other traffic calming efforts and enhanced signage at busy intersections on Northeast 6th Street between Greenwood Avenue and Butler Market Road (deviating from 6th to connecting streets where 6th Street deadends) as well as Northwest 15th Street from Simpson Avenue to Galveston Avenue. “Commute Options is excited about this,” Jeff Monson, executive director for Commute Options told the Source. “I think it’s a great way that the City is showing that they want to encourage more people to bike and walk and to make it safe for people biking and walking and riding the bus, too.”

Legislative efforts Meanwhile, this session, the Oregon Legislature has at least one bill aimed at fostering safer streets for cyclists. In November of 2017, a Johnathan Chase Adams was killed when he was run over by a package delivery truck while riding his bike at the intersection of Wall Street and Olney Avenue. Police didn’t cite the driver—though District Attorney John Hummel did six months later. Still, Deschutes County Circuit Court Judge A. Michael Adler threw out that citation, ruling he saw “no authority” to support the contention that bike lanes continue through intersections in Oregon. According to the Governors Highway Safety Association—whose members include state highway safety offices of the 50 states—in 2018, 6,227 pedestrians died

in traffic accidents across the U.S., the highest number in 30 years. In 2016, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration’s statistics show 840 cyclists were killed, the highest number in a 10-year period. House Bill 2682, sponsored by Reps. Rob Nosse (D-Portland) and Sheri Schouten (D-Beaverton) would amend the current statute relating to bike lanes in Oregon by adding the provision, “where the markings of a bicycle lane are interrupted by an intersection, the bicycle lane continues in and through the intersection.” It would effectively close the loophole that caused Judge Adler to throw out the citation for failure to yield. HB 2682 was introduced, had its first reading and was referred to Transportation in January. The bill had a public hearing March 27.

Active transportation across Oregon Commute Options’ Monson says statewide, there’s a shift toward active transportation—including walking, riding and public transportation like buses. “It’s like the giant ship of Oregon Department of Transportation is shifting and they’re doing a lot of bike, walk and bus projects,” Monson said. “And years ago it was like people would say, ‘Why am I even at this transportation meeting?’ And now every meeting I go to is talking a lot about biking, walking and transit.” According to the League of American Bicyclists—founded in 1880 as a membership organization that promotes cycling for fun, fitness and transportation—about 5 million people in the U.S. commuted to work either by bike or walking in 2016. A 2012 article on the Sierra Club website stated that bicyclists in the U.S.

Reducing vehicle miles traveled The City of Bend’s overall transportation goals include increasing transportation system capacity, quality and connectivity for all users—including people driving vehicles, not just bikers, bus riders and people walking. The City has plans to build more travel lanes, improve intersections and roundabouts—while also improving bike lanes and sidewalks—to reduce congestion, make travel times more reliable and improve the safety for all users. Meanwhile, Rowan, the project engineer, said the City will start design on phases two and three of the Greenways project this year, with construction on those phases happening in 2020. Phase four will be designed in 2020 and constructed in 2021, as funding allows. In 2016, an initial network of Greenway routes were included in the City’s urban growth boundary expansion plan. In the summer of 2017, the $900,000 was approved for the project. Rowan said the design started in February 2018, but sidewalk and transportation safety projects pushed back completion of the design until the fall of last year. When the Greenways are completed, people will be able to actively commute from as far north as Butler Market Road, east from 12th Street and Greenwood Avenue, South from Roosevelt Avenue and west from 15th Street to downtown—all on safer streets. Rowan said the City will have public outreach opportunities throughout the project’s span.

hase one of a project aimed at making some streets safer for Bend pedestrians and cyclists will start this month. At its March 20 meeting, the Bend City Council voted unanimously to authorize Big Schatz Construction to build phase one of the Neighborhood Greenways project—a four-phase project that addresses the 2017 Council’s Goal Number 2: to “Move people and products around Bend efficiently, safely and reliably.” The City has a $900,000 budget for the entire project that aims to provide safer connections, reduce cut-through traffic and speed, help people cross busier streets and guide and help people get to their destinations while walking or riding bikes. Sherry Jako, an experienced cyclist who lives near the 6th Street Greenway, said she doesn’t think the near-million the City has set aside for the project is enough to make Bend a more bike-friendly city. “While this is a start to implementing changes, this doesn’t solve the many streets in our district that lack continuous sidewalks, safer walkways for pedestrians and safer bike routes,” Jako told the Source. “While providing a neighborhood greenway on a quiet residential street—6th Street—is a positive, this does not solve cyclists’ being able to access business along the busy artery of 3rd Street,” Jako continued. “We need connected bike routes that are safer routes to schools, places of employment and businesses.” Jako believes building the routes will promote cycling, but more focus needs to go on driver behavior on nearby streets. “I also think adjacent streets to the Neighborhood Greenways need the buffer of speed bumps to slow the speed of cars down for additional

saved $4.6 billion a year between 2000 and 2010 by not driving cars. “The benefits of walking and biking are numerous: saving money, you don’t have to find a parking space, health and you get some good exercise and don’t burn fossil fuels,” Monson said. “Reducing traffic congestion, and if you’re with kids, they get to look around and see the neighborhood and enjoy their walk to school and feel better once they get to school—and do better in school.”

New charitable pharmacy ensures diabetes patients get their insulin

Oregon Takes 1st Step Toward Campaign Finance Limits

Oregon Herbicide Ban Slowed by Chemical Company Appeal

With over 30 years in the pharmacy industry, Julie Dewsnup wanted to do more to help people living with diabetes. After opening a diabetes education care center and nonprofit pharmacy nine months ago, Dewsnup wanted to continue to make it easier for patients to receive their medication — which is why on Monday, Diabetes Community Care Team on Bailey Hill in Eugene will open a charitable pharmacy to help all community members with diabetes. “We discovered that insurance doesn’t always meet all the needs; there’s still that big gap,” said Dewsnup, Diabetes Community Care Team executive director. “We just started looking, and I wasn’t that aware of charitable pharmacies and how they could operate. It was kind of like a nice little surprise moment of, ‘Oh, OK, we could do this.’” In 2015, the Oregon Diabetes Report said that 9.4 percent of Oregonians had been diagnosed with diabetes; although when undiagnosed cases are considered that number rises to an estimated 12 percent. – Aliya Hall, for The Register-Guard

Oregon legislators took the first step Wednesday toward asking voters to amend the state constitution to allow donation limits on political campaigns. The Senate Campaign Finance Committee approved a measure for the May 2020 primary ballot. It would undo state Supreme Court rulings that have struck down previous limits as an infringement of free-speech rights. Oregon voters in 2006 didn’t approve a measure that sought to narrow those free-speech protections and place caps on campaign money. Gov. Kate Brown helped spark the new drive to revamp the state’s campaign finance laws after she won re-election last year in the most expensive governor’s race in Oregon history. Brown called Oregon the “wild, wild west” of campaign-finance law after she and rival Republican Knute Buehler together spent about $35 million. – Jeff Mapes, OPB

A conifer tree-killing herbicide would have been banned from Oregon roadsides this month, but the rule has been delayed by a request from chemical giant, Bayer AG. Perhaps best known for aspirin, Bayer also makes agricultural products like Perspective, an herbicide once commonly used to control weeds and reduce fire risk along highways. The active ingredient, ACP, is behind killing about 2,100 ponderosa pines in Deschutes National Forest near Sisters, Oregon. The product label says not to apply it near “desirable” roots— a warning that came after a wave of tree deaths were linked to ACP in 2011. But as one product made by DuPont was pulled off the market, Bayer launched a different brand. That’s the stuff state contractors working for the Oregon Department of Transportation sprayed outside of Sisters until 2015. – Emily Cureton, OPB

After a bill sailed through the Legislature, some hope the new law will ease the housing squeeze By Magdalena Bokowa

“Every condition exists simply because someone profits by its existence.” — Martin Luther King Jr. Landlords fear it. Economists gripe about it. Tenants celebrate it. In the contentious world of affordable housing, two words—rent control—are no longer a far-off solution aimed at easing the housing crisis. Rent control is now very much law in Oregon. Senate Bill 608, which caps rental increases to just once a year, at 7 percent plus inflation, and forbids no-cause evictions after the first year, effortlessly sailed through both chambers of the Oregon Legislature, and was signed into law by Gov. Kate Brown Feb. 28. With the current inflation rate, the rental increase is capped at 10.3 percent this year. Brown said the new law would, “... Provide immediate relief to Oregonians struggling to keep up with rising rents and a tight rental market…” and is, “a critical tool for stabilizing the rental market.” The bill was met with resistance from Central Oregon’s state representatives, including newly elected Reps. Jack Zika (R-Redmond) and Cheri Helt (R-Bend), as well as Sen. Tim Knopp (R-Bend). Zika and Helt both testified during bill hearings, saying the bill would curb the supply of new development in Central Oregon—the fourth-fastest growing area in the nation., according to WalletHub last year. Supermajorities in both the House and Senate ensured

the bill moved swiftly, where a previous 2017 bill had failed. “Oh you could feel it,” says Zika. “It was definitely a done deal. I submitted amendments along with other Republicans in committee but they were denied. They had come to an agreement before the session had even started.” Zika says he’s received calls about “waves of evictions and rental increases,” attributing it to “last minute knee jerk reactions of landlords,” but didn’t provide specifics. Helt testified she was worried the legislation would “deliver everybody a 7-10 percent rent increase per year.” As it stands, the trends are rent increases of about 8-12 percent since 2012, according to the U.S Department of Housing and Urban Development. Though rent control isn’t the only way to address a housing crisis, is it the fastest solution? Will it scare off developers and stem the much needed supply of new investment that Zika and Helt noted, slowing the development of the reported 155,000 units Oregon alone needs?

factoring in inflation). “Affordable housing is getting crushed by the available profit margins,” says Ralph Lawrence, a long-term Bend tenant who has moved three times in the last four years and now shares a two-bedroom apartment with two others on the east side. He’s tracked the progress of the bill and laments, “It’s past time for our government to get into the housing industry.” With restrictive land use and zoning policies statewide, it can be tough to spur new housing quickly. Zika and Helt hope to help by co-sponsoring HB 2336, which would provide more than 200 affordable housing units in Red-

By the numbers: it’s relative In 2019, the average grocery bill will increase by about 1.4 percent. Salaries? About 3.1 percent. But rent? It varies. Though there are reports of rent increases in Portland by as much as 113 percent, the average rental increase in Central Oregon since 2012 falls on average between 8-10 percent per year, according to a 2018 HUD report. To put this in perspective, the HUD reports state the average asking rent in Bend in 2015 was $667, $774 and $898 for one, two and three-bedroom apartment units, respectively. In 2018, HUD reports those median rents were $934, $1,032 and $1,154 for one, two and three-bedroom apartments—meaning the 2018 one-bedroom rental rate is 40 percent higher than 2015. That’s an increase of 13.3 percent per year (not

mond on a 50 acre plot of land—similar to a 2016 pilot program which was awarded to Bend. “Oregon’s restrictive land use system is playing a key role in the high cost of housing in Central Oregon,” Zika says, “This is the type of approach we need to address the housing affordability crisis in Oregon.” Building units takes time. By contrast, rent control offers immediate relief from “economic eviction”—when landlords force a tenant to move by initiating a large rental hike. Rental caps can also safeguard those most vulnerable, such as the elderly or lower-income populations, and costs very little to implement.

eviction, provide a one-month relocation fee and forbids no-cause evictions after a year, except for a “qualifying reason.” Among these qualifiers are major renovations, conversions to nonresidential use or if a landlord or immediate family member wishes to move back into the property. Landlords who hold fewer than four properties are also exempt from the relocation fee. In terms of tenants ensuring their landlords play by the new rules, enforcement happens in small claims court. Although there are free services to help, such as LegalAid or the Community Alliance of Tenants hotline, it’s not yet clear how many tenants will actually pursue

A Stanford Graduate School of Business report noted that the biggest benefit came to those renters who were in their units when rent control was enacted. Those coming later would most likely pay higher rates.

A call for monitoring The bill also requires landlords to provide 30 days’ written notice for

action against landlords who don’t follow the law. “I’d like for them to monitor this bill,” says Zika. “They had all this data to get it passed so they should have the reporting mechanisms in place to prove it works,” he said—though he wasn’t specific on what type of data collection he would like to see. Landlords fear even lower caps Are smaller rental increases sustainable? Is 7 to 10 percent reasonable? Depends on who you ask. Tenant advocacy groups say no. They maintain that increases of 2 to 3 percent—in line with salary increases, are fair. Meanwhile, landlords, such as Melody Luelling, president of the Central Oregon Realtors Association, worry that the somewhat generous annual cap will be reduced

FEATURE “Who this really hurts, isn’t the deep pockets of huge corporations. They saw this coming and raised rents ages ago,” Luelling says. “It hurts smaller landlords, those maybe born and raised here in Central Oregon who own single family homes as rentals. Multi-family homes, duplexes, those will always stay in the rental market, but it’s the single family home that will be taken out of the rental market.” She says that because the median cost to buy a home is so high, most small time investors won’t buy them as rentals.

cost-burdened. According to OCPP, 51 percent of Oregon renters, with more than half of those labeled as “severely cost burdened”—are paying more than 50 percent of their income toward rent. HUD’s guidelines suggest no more than 30 percent of an individual’s income be used for housing. In 2016, one-third or about 530,000 Oregonian households didn’t meet that guideline. Of that total, 15 percent couldn’t afford to pay for all of the other needs. Food and health care funds were severely lacking, and hous-

“I’d like for them to monitor this bill. They had all this data to get it passed so they should have the reporting mechanisms in place to prove it works.” - Jack Zika “I know of at least a few people who sold or are in the process of doing so and they will be owner occupied,” she said. Luelling, who herself owns and manages 26 rentals with her husband, notes that since the bill so quickly turned into law they have yet to draft up new versions of leases for landlords to use. They hope a April 23 meeting of the Central Oregon Rental Owners Association will help landlords wade through the language of the bill. “You can have three different lawyers read this bill and interpret it three different ways.” Too little, too late? Many renters, meanwhile, are paying more than they can afford. The Oregon Center for Public Policy says a disproportionate number of renters are already

ing instability ate away at the physical and mental health of children, affecting their ability to potentially succeed, according to the OCPP. They also note that renters are more likely to be cost burdened than homeowners. In Central Oregon, a 2017 Homeless Leadership Coalition Report found that 57 percent of the reported homeless became so while a resident of Central Oregon. Meanwhile, 59 percent cited economic reasons as the cause of their homelessness or housing instability. And though rental caps are seen as the enemy of economists such as Assar Lindbeck—who once famously

said it was the worst thing to happen to a city, next to a bombing—new evidence is emerging that rent controls helps, especially among the most vulnerable populations. A Stanford Graduate School of Business report noted that the biggest benefit came to those renters who were in their units when rent control was enacted. Those coming later would most likely pay higher rates. San Francisco, which the report examined, is an interesting case study however, because other factors, such as the lack of dedicated new affordable housing units and the burgeoning tech industry, have greatly contributed to its income disparity. However, the paper ultimately concludes that, “We find that rent control increased the probability a renter stayed at their address by close to 20 percent and that stabilizing effects are significantly stronger...among households that have already spent a number of years at their treated address.” Stability, as Gov. Brown wanted, may be on the horizon—especially if the proposed $400 million assistance package for affordable housing, homelessness and rental assistance goes through this legislative session. “Decent, affordable housing should be a basic right for everybody in this country,” writes Matthew Desmond, author of the book, “Evicted.” “The reason is simple: without stable shelter, everything else falls apart.”

over time, to 4 or 2 percent or even less. Luelling and Zika both say that 7 percent plus inflation may not be enough—especially when properties age and need larger, more expensive repairs, like roof replacement. Within the new law, buildings 15 years or newer are exempt from the law, a clause included to quell any fears that new development will stall, but elicits additional worry that those developers and landlords will price-gouge until the 15-year time limit is up. They argue that in a market without caps, landlords can pass along upgrades or repairs onto tenants via higher rents. Caps may stop or delay them from making repairs and upgrading their properties. Zika predicts that right when the 15-year cap comes in, developers will sell their properties. “After the 15 years, if you don’t repair it, that’s when things start failing,” says Zika, who’s also a real estate agent. “Water heaters, roofs, you would be selling an apartment complex that would start to need major infrastructure updates. I don’t think that’s very good business.” Though, in theory, those developers would had been able to pass along any needed repairs before the rental increases went in if they wanted a higher return on investment. Zika also worries that developers might avoid developing in Oregon, with the law in place. “Why would a developer spend millions of dollars if there’s rent control?” he asks. “If I can just go to Idaho, why wouldn’t I do that?” Luelling, who also doubles as a real estate agent and a landlord, notes that she’s gotten calls from smaller landlords saying they will sell their homes in favor of buying elsewhere. “Like Idaho,” she says.

A Year of “Bark Your Head Off, Dog” The Hop Along’s Mark Quinlan reminisces By Isaac Biehl

WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / APRIL 4, 2019 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

Matt Allen

usiness is booming for the Philadelphia-born band Hop Along. With a long run of tour stops ahead (playing The Suttle Lodge three days before hitting Coachella), the band has grown in many ways they never knew they could. Hop Along is about to hit the one year mark since the release of its last album, “Bark Your Head Off, Dog,” which was one of the best alternative albums of 2018. I spoke with drummer Mark Quinlan about being in a band with his sister, Francis, milestones, and how “Bark Your Head Off, Dog” was a big turning point for the group. Source Weekly: I was looking at your band’s Spotify stats. Do you think you could guess the top cities where your music gets the most plays? Mark Quinlan: Based on ticket sales, New York is one, Brooklyn, Manhattan, London, Philly and… L.A.? SW: You did pretty good! L.A., New York and Brooklyn are all on there. Seattle was one of the others, and Chicago was the top city. MQ: Ah that’s awesome! I love Chicago. Chicago was one of our first really big shows outside of our hometown. It was great. SW: This year you guys are scheduled to play at Coachella. What’s it like going from playing in your mom’s yard and driveway with your sister to playing one of the biggest festivals in the country? MQ: You know, meeting milestones is always great. Especially doing it with my sister. You set goals for yourself and

Fun fact: Hop Along had its own beer called the Hop Along IPA, which was brewed by Love City Brewing in Philadelphia.

then you do your best to achieve them... and THEN, on top of that, you have to maintain the perspective that you are achieving your goals and pay attention to the progress that you have made. I am always appreciative of the progress that I’m able to make with my sister who is also a great artist. SW: Working with Francis in the band, has that given you a new perspective seeing a sibling do something they’re extremely talented at, and changed your relationship over the years? MQ: Francis is always expanding my perspectives. She challenges it in really positive ways. It keeps me focused on bettering myself morally, ethically and creatively. I’ve always appreciated her as a human being and as my sister, but it’s unique and wonderful to appreciate her as a professional. It’s a gift.

SW: Do you have any fond memories from playing in the driveway and backyard? MQ: Fond memories? Ooh—those were funny times. Musically we were like butting heads. I would play very loudly. We were so loud one time in the driveway that the neighbor who was a good 100 yards away came over and was like ‘What are you guys doing?!’ But they were humble beginnings that I think back on fondly as a whole. I try to remember that’s where I came from. SW: April 6 marks a year since you guys released “Bark Your Head Off, Dog....” MQ: Wow! Woah. I did not think of that. SW: What memories do you have from creating that record and how have you and the band grown since then? MQ: We truly realized our power artistically and the resources that we had. I

almost want to give advice to bands starting out: Realize that you do have power, you are uniquely and creatively yourselves. You don’t need these outside sources you think you need to make great music. Realizing that we could sit in a room together, creatively, and use Joe and Kyle’s studio to realize the ideas we came up with was a really wonderful moment for all of us. Being sure in ourselves helped us realize the vision we had created in the studio, prior to going in better than we had with any other record. SW: One thing I really enjoy about your music is how you convey emotion. With Francis’ voice and lyrics, she’s really good at transferring that over. How do you work on your emotion through drums? MQ: Most drummers would tell you—I feel pretty good about saying this— most drummers would tell you that the drums can be very cathartic, emotionally. You’re translating your energy into motion and sound and there’s a lot of expression to be had there. SW: When did you learn to play drums? MQ: It was one of those things. We were just running around our cousin’s house and she had a snare, and I went and I hit it and I was like ‘Woah!’ Fireworks went off in my head. It was amazing.

ome artists have works that sound timeless. Some have careers that span decades. In Mason Jennings’ case, the 44-year-old artist checks off both boxes. His songs are tender, emotionally filling and connecting. Jennings’ debut album was released in 1997; his most recent effort in 2018—21 years all together, for those doing the math. Starting out as another independent artist on the folk scene, Jennings has made a brilliant career with his unique approach and sound to the

What Comes After?

MOsley WOtta’s new album, the first in seven years, prompts that very question By Isaac Biehl

Join in for a listening party of “What Comes After?” with MOsley WOtta at The Commons Friday.

in which Graham is lyrically sprinting through the track hard, almost as if he’s diving after a loose ball. “Johnny Carlos, Tommie Smith, standing there with a balled-up fist,” Graham raps, referencing the iconic moment during the 1968 Olympics, when the two athletes held up power fists. If you listen to the whole album, it’s no secret why Graham mentioned these athletes. “What Comes After?” centers a lot around the idea of fear, and how to stand tall over the lines drawn throughout society—something Carlos and Smith embodied. From the get-go Graham lays the groundwork for the rest of the album to get your wheels turning. “Is the best thing to charge in and to start screaming with everybody else?

Is the best thing to completely detach from it and act as if you’re not part of the community?” says Graham as he questions those lines. “Most likely you’re going to find yourself in between somewhere. There’s a lot to do with our responses that happen in the real world based on our biological systems. There’s a lot to do with the way we treat each other as groups versus one on one. That stuff freaks me out.” Graham tackles everything from racism, self-image and the backbones of America throughout the album. This content is especially powerful backed by the beats from Williams, who elevates the themes with a variety of haunting qualities and heavy bass, putting his

own spin on the trap sound of today. “I didn’t want to go super all-in [with trap]. I really wanted the stuff to age well. Certain things don’t age all that well, and you don’t really know what will,” says Williams. “If you really listen to it, it’s got those trap-ish influences to it, but you listen to the ambience and the bass, it’s tugging at your heart strings.” “What Comes After?” is a question that might never be answered. Bad things are going to happen; so are good things. It’s how we as humans react to one another in the face of good and bad events that most concerns Graham. The album’s closing track is a perfect reflection of that feeling, with Graham resisting to give up his “white flag” and call it quits. “It’s talking about how bumpy evolution is. Sometimes it’s steps backward as well as steps forward,” reflects Graham. “It’s not that I’m not like, fear-free, but finding how to speak your truth regardless of how scared you might be, knowing that that’s actually more important—I suppose that sounds a bit self-righteous—but it’s becoming a big part of what I didn’t feel like I was allowed to do, growing up here. I felt like I had to play by a different set of rules.” MOsley WOtta Album Listening Party Fri., April 5. 7-9:30pm The Commons 875 NW Brooks St., Bend No cover

t’s been seven years since MOsley WOtta’s last album, “Kinkonk.” That’s a big window for things to change, especially for a musician. The turns life take can either keep that window propped open for creation, or make you move in a different direction. You have to roll with the punches and jump those hurdles. For MOsley WOtta, aka Jason Graham and his team, things have definitely changed. Graham has kids (who you might hear on the album), Ritual Systems producer Colten Tyler Williams moved his studio and engineer Rory Restani of Oxiliary moved from downtown Bend to Sisters, basically building a studio from scratch. “In some ways it feels like, ‘Aw, man we’re past our due date,’ but in other ways I’m like ‘holy sh*t!’ Not to be totally self-congratulatory, but like Rory didn’t hire a bunch of folks to do remodeling, Rory learned how to do remodeling. Walls are up because Rory learned how to build walls.” says Graham, who also was named Bend’s first creative laureate last year. “That’s some DIY sh*t!” As we sat in the new Oxiliary space, this was the first time anyone other than Graham had heard the album from front to back in the proper order. It was a room filled with plenty of head nodding and smiles as the bass boomed under Graham’s aptitude for clever wordplay. You could feel the heat and passion behind his lyrics – Graham was making statements to stick. The new album, “What Comes After?” opens up full throttle with “Athlete,”

ARTWATCH Figuratively Speaking Group Show

Six female artists explore memories and relationships By Teafly Peterson

hen you walk into At Liberty this month, you’ll notice a long, paper cut-out on the ceiling, guiding you into the space. The piece, created by artist Lauren Iida, is like a beautiful upsidedown picnic table, or a net of memories cascading from the ceiling. It’s delicate and enchanting—a perfect welcome into this wonderful group show filled with memory and magic and the honoring of the feminine. Figuratively Speaking is the first group show exhibition at At Liberty. It features female artists including Paula Bullwinkel, Anna Fidler, Jennifer Hirshfield, Lauren Iida, Alexis Day and M.V. Moran. (Iida’s work was featured on the cover of the March 14 issue of the Source, when the show opened.) “While the six female artists of Figuratively Speaking work in distinctly different mediums and styles, their work is united by their quest to honor what is most valuable to them: their memories and relationships, personal strengths and their heroes,” says Jenny Green, co-founder of

also hopeful. As opposed to a natural planetary cycle we can do absolutely nothing about, he rightly believes that we have the technology to solve this problem. All that’s missing is the will. The Green New

Headed to First Friday in downtown Bend? Here’s what to put on your radar.

PETER MCCRACKEN WORLD PHOTOGRAPHY

Some of the finest snapshots of the Northwest and all over the globe will be featured in this gallery. Peter McCracken uses photography to escape into the world and his photos capture an intense amount of beauty.

JONEZY ARTWORK HIP-HOP PAINTINGS

Randy Jones, aka Jonezy Artwork, once told the now-defunct Salem Weekly that he listened to hip-hop music during every single painting he creates. Jones creates abstract and realism paintings, taking inspiration from a variety of places and styles. This is a unique gallery that you won’t soon forget. This comes paired with a Double Mountain tap takeover and tasting that’s sure to be delicious. Velvet, 805 NW Wall St., Bend.

WABI SABI MOVING EXTRAVAGANZA GOING AWAY BASH Deal has proven to be unpalatable to most, but in the end, it or something similar may be the only deal we’re offered if we hope to halt or forestall the vision Wallace-Wells has laid out before his readers.

Wabi Sabi is departing from its Wall Street location. To send things off right, they’re hosting a night of music, Ramune soft drinks, sake and other imported snack samples on First Friday. There will also be a cosplay parade as you stroll through the employee art gallery in your favorite character’s outfit. Wabi Sabi, 830 NW Wall St., Bend. 5:30-9pm.

By Teafly Peterson At Liberty Arts Collaborative. The hero aspect is seen in the work of Anna Fidler of Corvallis, whose large-scale portraits of rock icons feel partly like psychedelic rock posters and part like topographical maps. The icons Fidler chose are personal to her, because, as explained in her artist statement, they’re female artists she grew up admiring. One icon was the lead singer of Blondie. “Specifically, I remember seeing Debbie Harry surrounded by her black, leather-clad male band mates on the interior record jacket of her album, ‘Eat to the Beat.’ I loved that she was pretty and could both rap and sing great lyrics—but most of all I liked that she was the only female in the band. This seemed important to me.” The personal comes into a different light when you see Paula Bullwinkel’s work. Bullwinkel’s paintings feature family photos she’s taken, as well as found vintage family photographs her mother took in the ‘60s and ‘70s, showcasing memory in an intriguing way. As Bullwinkel is great at capturing the era of her childhood, each painting feels retro. They also have a mystical and surreal feel—as if you’re looking at a bigger story and waiting for it to unfold. They become both dreamscapes and memories at the same time. Bullwinkel says the work is inspired by, “Trying to figure out my childhood

and thinking about my mom who passed away about a year ago. She did not take many photos at all, but she took those. So, I was working things out, my own working through memories—it was helpful (in the grieving process). It is very healing to look at this stuff.” The bringing together of these artists results in a show that’s eclectic and meaningful. There’s delight in the subject matter as well as the variety of

approaches. Each artist offers a way to understand the experience and perspective of women, while never limiting the scope of how that should look or what stories are important to tell.

“New Car,” oil on canvas, by Paula Bullwinkel.

29 VOLUME 23 ISSUE 14 / APRIL 4, 2019 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

By David Wallace-Wells

K, let’s get this out of the way: this book is equal parts fascinating science and statistics, trainwreck gaping and real-life horror show. At one point later in the book, Wallace-Wells acknowledges the difficulty of what you’re being asked to reckon with. “If you have made it this far, you are a brave reader,” he writes. That difficulty shouldn’t stop you, though. I feel like it should be required reading for all of us, to shake us out of our widespread complacency. Here in the West we’re seeing shifting weather patterns, more extreme storm cycles, and the beginnings of coastal flooding. Sadly, this is nothing compared to what is happening right now in Africa, the Middle East and Southern Asia, and what is coming for us in the coming decades. The meat of the book consists of 12 meticulously documented chapters showing all the areas where things are getting worse and how much worse they’ll likely get if we stay on our current path: Unbreathable air, hunger, economics, freshwater, dying oceans, resource conflicts, etc. Right now, you’re thinking, “Why do I want to read this? This sounds awful.” It is, but Wallace-Wells is

Let’s Talk About Salt

Move over wine and cheese, this party is salty

By Lisa Sipe

Guessing and rating the salt was entertaining and sweet when served with a palate-cleansing margarita.

o kitchen is complete without salt. It’s a basic human taste, used in every cuisine. Salt enhances the flavor of food and brings it to life. At most restaurants in the U.S., when we ask for salt, we get table salt—stocked in most homes, along with possibly Himalayan pink salt. But take a look at Japan, where people use 4,000 different types of salt. Plenty of salt varieties are available stateside, too. In Oregon, there’s Netarts Bay hand-harvested pure flake sea salt from the Jacobson Salt Co.— sold by itself, or with a host of infusions. But do we really know that much about the mineral we eat every day, in almost every meal? Tasting parties Like parties hosted around wine, cheese and spirits, there are parties centered around salt. I thought of this idea when a friend gifted me a tiny set of salts from Japan. I couldn’t read any of the labels, but she translated each one and made a legend. The vials seemed so precious. Every time I thought about using them, I felt like I might waste one if I used it in the wrong dish, or worse, if the salt got lost in a dish. They sat on my shelf until I decided to share them with others. Choose salts wisely The Japanese set of salts included flavored salts (rice, bamboo, meat,

three spice, wasabi, matcha and tempura) and regional salts (Peru Inca, Himalayan and Andes). Many of the salts were very similar, so comparing them at a tasting would be challenging. Unless you know people with extremely well-developed salt palates, I recommend choosing a selection of salts that have different characteristics. The Japanese matcha and wasabi salts had very distinguishable flavors, so for my blind tasting I included them, along with truffle salt, alder wood smoked salt and Himalayan black salt.

choosing what to serve it with. I chose a baguette with unsalted butter, making it easy for everyone to pick up the nuances of each salt. Most of the guests found the garlic and onion notes in the wasabi salt, and practically everyone guessed the truffle salt on aroma alone. The salt we discussed the most was the Himalayan black salt, an Indian volcanic rock salt also known as kala namak. It smelled like sulfur and tasted a bit like hardboiled egg yolk. We all agreed it must be a staple in vegan cooking because it could fool the nose into thinking it was about to eat egg. Talking about how each salt could be used was my favorite part of the tasting—and this is also where I missed the mark. I wish I would have prepared more food to try with the salt, making the tasting also serve as a dinner party. Next time I’ll serve beef, chicken, roasted green beans or broccoli, along with macaroni and cheese. A friend thought the alder wood smoked salt would be perfect on a steak, mimicking being prepared over a wood fire. Because a salt tasting is a newer concept, I couldn’t find a blind tasting score card online. I designed one myself so tasters could record the flavor and aroma they picked up on each salt, rank the saltiness, give the salt an overall score and guess or record the actual type of salt. You can use my blind tasting worksheet by downloading it on the Source Weekly website, bendsource.com. Lisa Sipe

Do a little homework Before a tasting party, spend a little time online or at the library so you have some background on each salt. Learn where it’s from, how it was harvested (rock or sea) and what cuisine it’s typically used in. Inevitably someone is going to ask questions, so prepare beforehand or you or your guests will be Googling at the table.

CRAFT A Grand Opening

New Bend brewery, Bevel Craft Brewing, gets an ace for its Cascadian Dark Ale

The Black Ace CDA from Bevel Beer stands out at this new brewery.

evel Brewing has been on craft enthusiasts’ watch lists for quite some time now, and the wait is finally over! Bevel is now open, with a grand opening planned for Saturday, April 6. The atmosphere is industrial, and the outdoor areas are vast, with potential for plenty more food trucks than the space has now. I stopped in and tried a taster tray and was thoroughly impressed. The beer is sophisticated and complex, and the hops are the star in their beer. If you’re of those people who professes you “don’t like IPAs,” it’s OK—you should still try the beer. It’s all so wonderfully balanced. Of the five beers I tried, the one that stood out as phenomenal was the Black Ace. Black Ace is a CDA, or Cascadian Dark Ale, synonymous with Black IPA. This style of beer is dark and roasty. I’ve had both highly hopped and hardly hopped versions of this beer, but either way, they should always be roast-forward. When you drink this style, you’re hit with tons of roasted malts and grains. Black Ace is no exception, but what makes it stand apart from other CDAs is the finish. Many CDAs finish with a strong bitterness and slight astringency—flavors often occurring by over-steeping during the brewing process. Black Ace is medium-bodied and has a creamy mouthfeel. It’s not sweet and tastes of roasted malts and a touch of chocolate. The hops provide a touch

of bitterness to balance out the silky mouthfeel. Its finish is just as pleasant as its start. Black Ace has zero astringency, and the pleasant bitterness flows throughout the taste, reminding you that there are in fact hops in the brew. Each time I took a drink, I was blown away by its complexity. A CDA is a difficult beer to brew, and I’ve never had one that was as perfectly brewed as the Black Ace. On my drinkability scale, I give this beer a 4 out of 5, because not everybody enjoys the roastiness of a CDA. If you enjoy darker beers, try this beer. Bevel, located at 9th Street Village, will celebrate its grand opening with four food trucks and live music. The outdoor space is amazing, shared with the DIY Cave, artists’ studios and more. While I was there, an artist was painting a mural on an outside wall. Bevel plans on having a rotating mural, updated every year. Inside, disc golf-inspired fixtures and logos demonstrate the owners’ love for the game. The husband and wife team are both professional disc golfers with numerous world championships under their belts. Well done, Nate and Valarie Doss. I cannot wait to see what you brew next! Bevel Craft Brewing Grand Opening Sat., April 6. 11am-10pm Regular hours: Sun-Thu 11am-9pm; Fri-Sat 11am-10pm 911 SE Armour Rd, Suite B, Bend bevelbeer.com

APOLLO 11: A fitting tribute to the 50year anniversary of man’s first steps on the moon, this documentary brings historical archives as well as never-before-seen footage to the big screen. Odem Theter Pub, Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX BIRDS OF PASSAGE: A look at the origins

of the Colombian marijuana trade from the filmmakers behind the mesmerizing Amazonian fever dream, “Embrace of the Serpent.” There’s never been a drug movie quite like this one. Odem Theater Pub

CAPTAIN MARVEL: The 21st installment

of the Marvel Cinematic Universe is another charming and action-packed ride. Since this is an origin story, the film can be a bit formulaic at times, but the chemistry of Sam Jackson and Brie Larson is delightful enough to keep things light. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House, Redmond Cinema

DUMBO: Arguably, Tim Burton hasn’t made

FIVE FEET APART: Haley Lu Richardson and

UNPLANNED: Another bit of right-wing conservative propaganda. From the team that forcibly brought us “God’s Not Dead” and most of Trump’s voting base comes a pro-life bit of nastiness. A truly vile attack on Planned Parenthood that will only fuel the fire at the center of a divided America. Screw this movie and screw Regal for playing it. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

Jughead from “Riverdale” star as two plucky kids with cystic fibrosis who fall in love but can’t get too close. For people who thought “The Notebook” was too happy. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

THE LEGO MOVIE 2: The Second Part: The first Lego movie was the best ever cartoon based on a plotless series of connectable building blocks, and this one is a good one, too. The voice actors are charming and the story hits all the right nostalgia buttons, so prepare to get some more ridiculous songs stuck in your head. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX THE MUSTANG: Matthias Schoenaerts and Connie Britton star in this powerful drama about a convict participating in a program to train wild mustangs. This one’s guaranteed to bring tears to even the most hardened of viewers. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

a great movie since 1999’s “Sleepy Hollow,” so it’s easy not to expect much from his “Dumbo” adaptation. Disney’s live-action remakes have been pretty solid, though, so who knows? Either way, it will make a billion dollars and everyone will go home happy. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House, Redmond Cinema

SCORE

THE BEACH BUM: Harmony (“Spring Breakers”) Korine’s movies are difficult, to say the least, and this new effort is no different. Matthew McConaughey plays Moondog, a severely punchable stoner scumbag misogynist going on madcap adventures with Snoop Dog, Martin Lawrence and Jimmy Buffett. Hot garbage. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON: THE HIDDEN WORLD: A wonderful send-off to

Hiccup, Toothless and the land of Berk. If this makes a billion, they’ll surely make more in the series but, as it stands, this is the best final film in a trilogy we’ve received in a very long time. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Redmond Cinema, Sisters Movie House

STREAMING THIS WEEK

US: Jordan Peele’s sophomore effort after

2017’s instant classic “Get Out” manages to defy easy categorization. “Us” is at times a deeply disturbing horror flick, a biting piece of social commentary and a disgruntled satire on the United States’ current uncrossable political divide. No matter what you choose to take away from it, “Us” is one hell of a movie. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House, Redmond Cinema, Odem Theater Pub

WOMAN AT WAR: Halla is a quiet woman in

her 50s who’s secretly an environmental activist in her rural Icelandic town. As she single-handedly brings down drones and power lines, she becomes a target for those who’d gain from unregulated expansion. A very funny and urgent gem. Tin Pan Theater

WONDER PARK: It seems like a cartoon

about an adorable little girl and a bunch of animals running around an imaginary theme park should have been done already, but here we are. The trailer is a blast and it’s hard to go wrong with movies about holding on to your imagination, so consider us excited. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

THE DAWN WALL: Picture the intensity and defiance of human limitations featured in “Free Solo,” but starring a much more likable climber that doesn’t eat his food with a spatula. “The Dawn Wall” is an electrifying documentary following Tommy Caldwell, a nine-fingered climber who takes on Yellowstone’s breathtaking El Capitan. Truly inspiring. Now streaming on Netflix.

In Pod We Trust: The mouth-watering podcast, “The Feast,” returns for its third season with an episode focused entirely on the food from “Star Trek.” Food historian and host

Laura Carlson not only dives into what the future of food might look like, but also takes the evolution of cuisine across the different iterations of "Star Trek." As cool as the food cubes were on the original series, they don’t really, ahem, stack up to Picard’s super British tea replicator. I’m such a nerd. This is why I’m alone. As a huge fan of fiction podcasts and Rami Malek, “Blackout” was always going to speak directly to me in a non-crazy person kind of way. The U.S. and Canada are suffering from a blackout as a DJ (played by Malek) stays on the air to provide comfort for listeners quickly sliding into panic. The ever-tightening screws of intensity keep turning in what is easily the best new fictional podcast since “Homecoming.”

“Santa Clarita Diet” is a bloody good time.

Bingeworthy:

Costner and Harrelson are manhunters in “The Highwaymen.”

35 VOLUME 23 ISSUE 14 / APRIL 4, 2019 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

e’re a quarter of the way through the year already?! That doesn’t seem right. It feels like just yesterday that I made a New Year’s resolution to stop shame-eating entire DiGiorno pizzas while crying through old episodes of “Golden Girls.” Well, maybe next year. Instead, I think I’ll put my effort into finding awesome and strange new things to share with you fine Central Oregonians. That seems like a much more productive use of my time. Here we go.

I mean, I can recommend some cool new stuff, but mostly everyone I know is re-watching “Game of Thrones” from the beginning to prepare themselves for the final season beginning April 14. Which is great. You should do that. But just in case “Thrones” isn’t your strawberry jam, might I suggest the slow-paced but fascinating “The Highwaymen?” Starring Kevin Costner and Woody Harrelson as two aging flat feet hunting for Bonnie and Clyde, “The Highwaymen” is a good reminder that some of the best movies come in unassuming little packages.

If you’re looking for something to binge through (like a sweet, hot DiGiorno), the third season of “Santa Clarita Diet” has finally landed on Netflix. I’m constantly surprised how intelligent and hilarious this show about an undead real estate agent is, while showing off Timothy Olyphant’s previously unseen and flawless comic timing. This show is the true hidden gem on the massive blood diamond we call Netflix. Or, honestly, you can be like me and watch “Black Panther” for the 15th time while nervously awaiting “Avengers: Endgame” to melt our faces on April 26. This really is why I’m alone.

glioblastoma and he’s been battling this cancer pretty hard,” said Lopez. “We shifted all our fundraising to help him as much as we can.” Malendoski started as a groomer for Mt. Bachelor and created some of the first terrain parks on the mountain. His visionary creations of park features are well known throughout the snowboarding industry and have been on display at nearly all major snowboarding events, including the 2002 Olympics in Salt Lake City. On Thursday night, April 11, the Tower Theatre will host the Gerry Lopez Big Wave Challenge Movie Night featuring a yet-to-be-determined surfthemed movie. Friday is the practice day for competitors. “Any contestant wearing a bib can ride the course,” said Lopez. Riders will have time to learn the course and plan their moves. Slick tricks and big air aren’t going to be enough to win the Challenge, as the judges will be looking for power, speed and control—much like a surfing contest. A well-executed layback or sharp cutback can earn participants higher points than a single trick. Contestants can also join Lopez for a yoga workout in the morning. Like a surf contest, there’s a oneday holding period to determine the best conditions for the competition. “We’ll get together with the ski patrol Courtesy Mt. Bachelor

and mountain staff to get a good look at the forecast and then figure out which day looks the best,” said Lopez. A sunny day would be optimal, but the riders will be ready to go no matter the weather conditions. When the competition does get underway, the competitors will be sorted into different divisions such as Kane (Men’s), Wahine (Women’s), Kieki (kids 16 and under), and Makule (40 and older). “Not only do we have winners in each of the divisions, but we have awards for 25-30 various categories,” said Lopez. Best Method, Best Trick, Best Carve, Best Wipeout, Best Aloha Spirit, and more are presented during the awards ceremony. “Everybody gets behind whoever wins an award,” said Lopez. “We just want to spread the love as far and wide as we can.” On the day of competition, the Wahine, Keiki, and Makule divisions are scheduled for the morning, along with a demonstration by pro surfers. “We’ve got surfers who spend most of the winter riding waves rather than snow,” said Lopez. “We didn’t want them having to go head-to-head with guys that have been snowboarding all winter.”

At lunchtime, a Hawaiian-inspired barbeque and luau, with tunes by local Hawaiian musician Bill Keale will break out on the West Village deck. Following the luau, the Men’s division will wrap up. The Men’s division filled up in about two hours through online registration. Though it’s a competition, the Challenge is more about community coming together for a great cause and showcasing Central Oregon’s aloha spirit. As Lopez said, “The old beach boys of Waikiki used to say, ‘The best surfer is the one having the most fun.’” Gerry Lopez Big Wave Challenge Movie Night Thu., April 11. 6pm Tower Theatre 835 NW Wall St., Bend Free but donations accepted

he 2019 Gerry Lopez Big Wave Challenge is a snowboard-only event, meshing surf and snowboard cultures on a kahuna course. During the one-of-a-kind competition, participants will carve, spin, and slash their way down a course defined as “freestyle snowboard snow-surfing.” “The Challenge is more a ‘have fun’ type event than a hardcore one,” said Gerry Lopez, legendary surf master and Mt. Bachelor Ambassador. “We build waves out of snow and hold a surf contest.” The course features high-banked curves and quarter pipes, utilizing the mountain’s terrain to create wave-like features that bear names of Lopez’s favorite surf spots: Pipeline, Sunset, Rocky Point and others. This year represents the 9th annual Big Wave Challenge—started when Lopez and Andy Goggins, then-marketing director for Mt. Bachelor, were riding a chairlift together and looking at natural features that reminded Lopez of surf waves. “As the marketing director, Andy looked at them and went, 'We should have an event around that.'” Initially, it was also a fundraiser for different organizations in the area. “A few years ago, Pat Malendoski, who is a long-term figure here in the local snowboard community, was diagnosed with

Hummingbirds Ahead!

to the rounded bottom of the tank. It turned out be a female rufous hummer caught up in spider silk. “Wow!” I said. “Yeah,” the young man agreed and then exclaimed, “But look there!” pointing to another spot close by. There was a robust female black widow. “Here she comes,” he added as the spider started down her line toward the hummer. “Boooooo,” the kids started moaning again as the widow advanced. The hummer went into a frenzy as the spider approached her, beating her wings like mad. The spider stopped, blipped her

A male Anna’s hummingbird, photographed while surviving a brutal winter storm.

Hummingbirds have a very tight association with spiders—eating them and their insect prey. In addition, the females use spider silk to construct their unique cotton-like nests, wrapping spider silk around the fluff from dandelion seed parachutes and tying it to a limb. But sometimes, the shoe is on the other foot. One afternoon at the Oregon Museum of Science and Industry’s Camp Hancock, I happened to be at the “right place at the right time.” As I was approaching the camp’s motor vehicle fuel storage tank, I heard young voices shouting, “Boooooooo!” I came upon a group of students intently looking at something under the tank. One of the young men exclaimed, “Look at that Mr. Anderson,” pointing

bottom on the tank to attach another line and again advanced on the hummer, who began beating her wings—but her feet were stuck fast to the silken line. After about a full minute of this standoff, the spider retreated, the hummer hung head down, exhausted. The kids all cheered, “Yaaaaaay!” Then a discussion started about whether we should interfere. I voted no, and being the only adult present, I explained this wasn’t anything we had to do with. The hummer was collecting spiderweb to build her nest and got a little more than she bargained for. The spider was only trying to ensure she had enough to eat, and that’s the way it was. Just as I finished my take of the situation, the spider began to advance again, and the kids all went, “Boooooo!”

This time, the hummer really poured on the coal and actually broke free of the silk (which I really didn’t think she could do) and flew off to a resounding “Yaaaaaaaaayyyy!” Another point about hummers and nesting: there is no such thing as a hummingbird “family.” As far as I know, dad is only in the picture at the very beginning, to supply sperm to fertilize the eggs, leaving mom to build the nest, lay the eggs, hatch them and care of her young until they leave. Now, about our cold nights and your feeder. It’s OK if hummers find it—that’s why you put it up in the first place. If the night should go down to the teens, the hummer will find a sheltered spot and go into a torpor, that, if necessary, can last 36 hours with no harm to the bird. In closing, I’d like to share a story from Don Miller, an old pal from the OMSI days of the ‘60s. He’s also the guy who took the photo in this story. “It seemed a good day to stay indoors with 50 mph wind gusts and the power out at 11 am. My small house sits amid the giants of the Pacific Northwest forests, the Douglas fir. A good day to stay inside. “My thoughts turned to the Anna’s hummingbird. The only hummer to winter this far north, I had a male that came to my feeder every day. Would he make it this stormy winter day? I kept a watchful eye, but not for long. Soon he appeared, amazingly little affected flitting through the waving shrubs then alighting on the feeder. He has a favorite perch on a huckleberry bush about 30 feet from the feeder which rustled with every wind gust. “Undeterred, he took to his perch, every once in a while giving a quick buzz of wings and tail for equilibrium when a gust struck. Feathers puffed for warmth, even on this gray day his throat and head flashed their iridescent color. Always bashful at the feeder, I never wanted to photograph him there, but with my 40-year-old tank of a telephoto lens maybe I could photograph him as he perched 30 feet away. He brought me humor though as I pulled out an 8-pound lens to photograph this bird, weighing less than a sheet of paper, not to be grounded by a winter storm!”

ki touring, Alpine touring, Randonee, backcountry, splitboarding… called by many names, the sport of backcountry shredding is growing. Once the realm of only the most adventurous and fitness oriented, recent equipment advances have fueled the flames of popularity. If you’ve ever heard someone speak of a “Dawn Patrol” session before the workday begins, they were likely referencing a winter tour on The Cone or up Tumalo Peak. These days, retail shops carry more backcountry-specific gear, guide services offer more clinics and experiences and institutions including the Central Oregon Avalanche Center are staffing up to create more in-depth and professional forecasting resources. Whether a hardened master of the craft, or someone remotely curious, check out VertFest to find out what all the hubbub is all about. In addition to equipment demos and educational clinics that cover backcountry basics, there will be fire pits, adult refreshments and music— as well as the SkiMo race. Short for “Ski Mountaineering,” this type of racing typically involves a timed race, following an established trail through challenging winter Alpine terrain. Racers climb and descend under their own power using backcountry skiing or snowboard equipment and techniques. At VertFest, Elite division competitors race to the Summit, while the more recreational do a lap or two on The Cone.

eports from all over the Willamette Valley, aka The Swamp, are coming in on Oregon Birders Online with the news of hummingbirds from the California border to the Columbia River. According to one account: “Our hummingbird feeders are exploding with hummingbirds right now. This is the most spring hummers we’ve had in a very long time. Rather entertaining. North of Bandon Coos City.” I’d say it’s time to put up your hummingbird feeder, as well. But please, good people, don’t use the commercial formula with the red food coloring in it. That chemical junk does nothing good for wild birds — or for you and me! Just mix up a ratio of three-to-one water to white sugar (no other sugars or honey) and that will suffice. And remember, birds (and you and me) cannot get by on sugar water alone. For hummingbirds, it’s just a shot in the arm, giving them the juice they need to keep up to speed and rebound from a cold night or a cloudy day. They MUST have arthropods in their gut to keep ‘em goin’, so put in a flower garden that will attract pollinators, producing plenty of insects to keep the hummers humming.

During another transaction, the inspector found dishwasher drain lines not connected properly, leaking water all over the brand-new hardwood floors. Kit Blackwelder of Blackwelder and Son home inspections told me that some of the most common things he finds on new construction inspections are HVAC ducting issues, construction debris left behind in the crawlspace and missing rooftop ventilation. Typically, with new construction purchases, the buyer and buyerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s broker do a final walk-through of the property to identify a punch list of items to be completed and touched up. Generally speaking, this walkthrough doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t involve the detailed inspection of the crawl spaces, attics, roof inspections and running of appliances to ensure theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re installed and working properly. This is where having a professional home inspection is very helpful. These items can be addressed with the builder and added to the punch list prior to taking occupancy. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s to the benefit of the buyer to know exactly the condition of the property, and can prevent potential issues down the line.â&#x20AC;&#x201E;

ew-construction homes can be awesome.

As a licensed real estate broker, I consistently get questions about home inspections. The house is brand new, they askâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;what could be wrong with it? The answer is just because the house is new, doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t mean itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s flawless. There are so many moving parts with building a new home. With the shuffling of sub-contractors, on occasion things get overlooked or missed completely. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s true that the home is inspected by city and county building inspectors multiple times throughout the construction process. That said, inspectors are looking to make sure the new construction meets the minimum building code. Do these inspectors miss things? Sure, they do. Human error happens in every industry, and new construction is not exempt. A couple of years ago, I was working with a client who was purchasing a new construction home. The home appeared to be in perfect shape, as you would expect from a brand-new home. During the home inspection, inspectors discovered one of the heating ducts was not connected to the heat

I’m not the best housekeeper or the tidiest person. I’ve got papers everywhere, dishes in the sink, clothes on the floor, and an unmade bed. I have a very long-haired cat who leaves fur everywhere. I joke to men that “fighting entropy is a losing battle,” but I’m starting to wonder whether my messy place is keeping me single. Obviously, if somebody’s coming over, I’ll make an attempt to clean up. But it occurred to me that maybe men see my place and think either I’m lax in my own personal hygiene (I’m not) or I’d be a bad girlfriend/wife. —Sloberella

the adult alternative

When a guy you’re dating wants to buy you something, it shouldn’t be a vacuum. That said, there’s being dirty (that is, unclean) and there’s being untidy, and they’re two different things. In research looking at relationship deal breakers by evolutionary psychologist Peter K. Jonason and his colleagues, 63 percent of men named a “disheveled or unclean appearance” as the single biggest turnoff in a potential partner. However, it’s important to note that this measure was about personal hygiene, and you apparently don’t have mossy teeth or BO that sets off CDC scanners. As for your apartment, the real problem comes if the place crosses over from cluttered to disgusting. To understand why, consider the apparent function of getting grossed out. Evolutionary psychologist Joshua Tybur explains that disgust seems to have evolved to help us avoid pathogens— and the providers of their ground and air transportation, like boogers, vomit, dead bodies, and co-workers who like to celebrate “take your flu to work!” day. In light of this, priority areas to address would be the bathroom (especially the throne) and the kitchen. Also important would be policing the cat hair and rounding up any encrusted plates or week-old chow mein containers still loitering on surfaces. Regarding whether you should also be spending more time tidying up— that is, organizing mere clutter—living life can be seen as a series of decisions you need to make about trade-offs. Economists explain this in terms of “opportunity costs” — the benefits you have to sacrifice when you choose one option (one way to spend your time, energy, or money) over another.

For you, for example, time you spend tidying up is time you aren’t spending going out and meeting men (or just lying on the couch smoking a doob and watching the Apple TV screen-saver images floating by). Now, maybe TV ’n’ toke time sounds frivolous. However, time spent relaxing isn’t unimportant. If you work like a beaten dog, your body and mind are likely to take note and hammer you into taking a pause—through illness or depression. To decide the level of cleaning and tidying you need to do, ask yourself how much of a luxury and how much of a necessity a boyfriend is to you. Depending on Amy Alkon your answer—because even just clutter could put some guys off— you might decide that it’s worth it to you to begin a daily cleaning routine, simply by picking up or wiping up 10 things every morning before you start your workday. This advice is inspired by psychologist Karl Weick’s insight into the motivational power of “small wins.” Consider that being faced with massive, seemingly insurmountable problems— like “end world hunger,” “get the Israelis to hug it out with the Palestinians,” and, in your case, “keep the apartment spotless”—breeds dread in us (“aversive feelings,” in psychologist-speak) and drains our motivation. However, you could probably be kind of “yeah, okay” about doing 10 small tasks. (Some of these might be as minor as “pick up the sock that’s spent the week vacationing on the living room floor.”) Recasting the need to clean as a small set of daily tasks would yank away its power for dread production. In fact, chances are, through the “small win” of completing your daily 10, you’d end up feeling you accomplished something— which other research finds seems to have motivating effects throughout the day. Finally, there is another factor to consider: truth in cleanliness. If you’re likely to fall back into your old ways (at least somewhat), your home should not be so spotless and organized that you appeal to the wrong guy—the sort who measures so his decorative geode is in its rightful position on the coffee table. Should you attract a guy like that, it’d be best to confess to your sloberella-hood and give him time to see (and decide whether he can stomach) the real you. However, with guys with more moderate standardts, by doing your daily 10, you should hit the mark—giving them the impression that you’re holding off on sex because you’re done with hookups, not because you probably haven’t washed your sheets since mid-2016.

ASTROLOGY By Rob Brezsny ARIES (March 21-April 19): A mushroom

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): “Human beings are not born once and for all on the day their mothers give birth to them,” wrote novelist Gabriel Garcia Marquez. “Life obliges them over and over to give birth to themselves.” Here’s what I’ll add to that: As you mature, you do your best to give birth to ever-new selves that are in alignment with the idealistic visions you have of the person you want to become. Unfortunately, most of us aren’t skilled at that task in adolescence and early adulthood, and so the selves we create may be inadequate or delusory or distorted. Fortunately, as we learn from our mistakes, we eventually learn to give birth to selves that are strong and righteous. The only problem is that the old false selves we generated along the way may persist as ghostly echoes in our psyche. And we have a sacred duty to banish those ghostly echoes. I tell you this, Taurus, because the coming months will be en excellent time to do that banishing. Ramp up your efforts NOW! GEMINI (May 21-June 20): “When spring came,

CANCER (June 21-July 22): It’s time to prove that Cancerians have more to offer than nurturing, empathizing, softening the edges, feeling deeply, getting comfortable, and being creative. Not that there’s anything wrong with those talents. On the contrary! They’re beautiful and necessary. It’s just that for now you need to avoid being pigeonholed as a gentle, sensitive soul. To gather the goodies that are potentially available to you, you’ll have to be more forthright and aggressive than usual. Is it possible for you to wield a commanding presence? Can you add a big dose of willfulness and a pinch of ferocity to your self-presentation? Yes and yes!

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): General Motors manufactured a car called the Pontiac Aztek from 2001 to 2005. It wasn’t commercially successful. One critic said it looked like “an angry kitchen appliance,” and many others agreed it was exceptionally unstylish. But later the Aztek had an odd revival because of the popularity of the TV show Breaking Bad. The show’s protagonist, Walter White, owned one, and that motivated some of his fans to emulate his taste in cars. In accordance with astrological omens, Leo, I suspect that something of yours may also enjoy a second life sometime soon. An offering that didn’t get much appreciation the first time around may undergo a resurgence. Help it do so. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): “Of all the female sins, hunger is the least forgivable,” laments feminist author Laurie Penny. She’s referring to the hunger “for anything, for food, sex, power, education, even love.” She continues: “If we have desires, we are expected to conceal them, to control them, to keep ourselves in check. We are supposed to be ob-

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Only one of Nana Mouskouris’s vocal cords works, but over the course of an almost 60-year career, the Libran singer has sold over 30 million records in twelve different languages. Many critics speculate that her apparent disadvantage is key to her unique style. She’s a coloratura mezzo, a rare category of chanteuse who sings ornate passages with exceptional agility and purity. In the coming weeks, I suspect that you will be like Mouskouris in your ability to capitalize on a seeming lack or deprivation.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Your tribe is symbolized by three animals: the scorpion, the eagle, and the mythological phoenix. Some astrologers say that the scorpion is the ruling creature of “unevolved” or immature Scorpios, whereas the eagle and phoenix are associated with those of your tribe who express the riper, more enlightened qualities of your sign. But I want to put in a plug for the scorpion as being worthy of all Scorpios. It is a hardy critter that rivals the cockroach in its ability to survive—and even thrive in—less than ideal conditions. For the next two weeks, I propose we make it your spirit creature. SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Sagittarian novelist Gustave Flaubert declared that it’s “our duty is to feel what is sublime and cherish what is beautiful.” But that’s a demanding task to pull off on an ongoing basis. Maybe the best we can hope for is to feel what’s sublime and cherish what’s beautiful for 30-35 days every year. Having said that, though, I’m happy to tell you that in 2019 you could get all the way up to 95-100 days of feeling what’s sublime and cherishing what’s beautiful. And as many as 15 to 17 of those days could come during the next 21. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Sommeliers are people trained to perceive the nuances of wine. By sampling a few sips, the best sommeliers can discern facts about the type of grapes that were used to make the wine and where on earth they were grown. I think that in the coming weeks you Capricorns should launch an effort to reach a comparable level of sensitivity and perceptivity about any subject you care about. It’s a favorable time to become even more masterful about your specialties; to dive deeper into the areas of knowledge that captivate your imagination. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Every language is a work-in-progress. New words constantly insinuate themselves into common usage, while others fade away. If you traveled back in time to 1719 while remaining in your current location, you’d have trouble communicating with people of that era. And today linguistic evolution is even more rapid than in previous ages. The Oxford English Dictionary adds more than a thousand new words annually. In recognition of the extra verbal skill and inventiveness you now posses, Aquarius, I invite you to coin a slew of your own fresh terms. To get you warmed up, try this utterance I coined: vorizzimo! It’s an exclamation that means “thrillingly beautiful and true.” PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): One of history’s most audacious con men was George C. Parker, a Pisces. He made his living selling property that did not legally belong to him, like the Brooklyn Bridge, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the Statue of Liberty. I suspect you could summon his level of salesmanship and persuasive skills in the coming weeks. But I hope you will use your nearly magical powers to make deals and perform feats that have maximum integrity. It’s OK to be a teensy bit greedy, though.

there were no problems except where to be happiest,” wrote Ernest Hemingway in his memoir. He quickly amended that statement, though, mourning, “The only thing that could spoil a day was people.” Then he ventured even further, testifying, “People were always the limiters of happiness except for the very few that were as good as spring itself.” I bring these thoughts to your attention so as to prepare you for some good news. In the next three weeks, I suspect you will far exceed your quota for encounters with people who are not “limiters of happiness”—who are as good as spring itself.

jects of desire, not desiring beings.” I’ve quoted her because I suspect it’s crucial for you to not suppress or hide your longings in the coming weeks. That’s triply true if you’re a woman, but also important if you’re a man or some other gender. You have a potential to heal deeply if you get very clear about what you hunger for and then express it frankly.

shaped like a horse’s hoof grows on birch trees in parts of Europe and the U.S. If you strip off its outer layer, you get amadou, spongy stuff that’s great for igniting fires. It’s not used much anymore, but it was a crucial resource for some of our ancestors. As for the word “amadou,” it’s derived from an old French term that means “tinder, kindling, spunk.” The same word was formerly used to refer to a person who is quick to light up or to something that stimulates liveliness. In accordance with astrological omens, I’m making “Amadou” your nickname for the next four weeks.
