TOPINION
the past several months the Bend City Council has begun establish ing “time, place and manner” guide lines that will serve as a guidepost to where and when people can camp in tents or other temporary shelters around Bend. Suffice to say there’s almost nothing more controversial going on in Bend right now—save the other conversation about where to site managed camps. Thus far, nothing has been set in stone, though at its early-August meet ing the Council did indicate support for banning camping in the public rights of way in residential zones, within a cer tain distance from waterways and on city properties—with possible caveats. Community members attending Tuesday’s meeting asked questions and shared concerns about everything from the campers at Hunnell Road to how income inequality is playing into the situation of having upward of 1,200 people experiencing homelessness in Crook, Jefferson and Deschutes coun ties, according to the most recent Point in Time Count. Some threatened to sue the City should it execute this new code without having the number of shelter beds available in the city be matched to the number of people experiencing homelessness. Still others expressed concern that new codes are being put in place, all while, according to their accounting, present city codes are not even being enforced. We do not envy the city leaders whose job it is to put this program in place. On the one hand, some will say that new restrictions add difficulty to those experiencing homelessness. On the other, some will say that the City is being too permissive by putting into place a new set of codes that outline where, exactly, people CAN camp. In other words, some will see the act of putting a set of camping codes into place as being overly restrictive, while others will see it as being overly per missive.Among the “sticky widgets” in this scenario is the notion of enforcement. Councilors and city staff appear in agreement that cops should not be the first points of contact when a camp is found to be in violation of any future camping code. So who, then, will those enforcement people be? Will anyone besides cops sign up to be the vanguard of the camp-clearing brigade, and of the people who might willingly sign up, will they possess the knowledge, skills and empathy needed to handle the dif ficult and emotional work of moving someone from a place they call home? Right now, councilors are work ing through the nuts and bolts of time, place and manner guidelines, and we agree with councilors who have stat ed that while this is not a job they rel ish doing, the alternative—not having any guidelines in place at all—is the less-humane route in a housing, eco nomic and cultural situation that is far from humane. Still, we also agree with those who believe that tackling the issue of enforcement—who will do it, how we’ll pay for it—should be addressed sooner rather than later. 306-3177

“My expectation for ‘options counseling’ was, I was going to meet with professionals trained in their field; I am under the impression it would probably be a ther apist of some kind,” said a woman who was unhappy with her consultation at the PRCCO in Bend and who asked to remain anonymous. She sought options counseling soon after finding out she was pregnant, and PRCCO was the first result when doing an online search for where she could go. She said she turned down several offers to perform pregnancy tests and ultrasounds—she’d already con firmed her own pregnancy and had an ultrasound scheduling, insisting she just wanted options counsel ing. Her session, however, was far from what she was looking“Withinfor. about five minutes, she tells us that she’s pro-life. How is this happening? This is not options counseling if she’s coming straight out and telling me her bias,” she said. “She asked to pray for us. We said yes, because we believe that anyone can do whatever they want for their own religion, but we did not real ize she was going to pray for us right then and there— super uncomfortable.”
The free programs can connect women to vital resources during and after pregnancy, but criticisms of pregnancy resource centers are more pointed toward attempts to sway women away from abortion.
“I think we get a bad rap often with people thinking that we’re trying to coerce women to keep their babies, and in my opinion, and I’ve been here for seven years now, it’s really not the truth,” said Leanne Woods, executive director of Pregnancy Resource Centers of Central Oregon. “We care about the women that are in our centers, and we’re going to tell you, whether you have an abortion or are having your baby, that we care aboutWoodsyou.”said PRCCO saw about 3,000 clients last year in its clinics in Bend, Redmond and Prineville, and about 70% continue interacting with the program in some capacity. The centers offer a free food pantry, free prenatal vitamins, free clothing for children up to two years old, parenting coaching classes, diapers, for mula, car seats and ultrasounds. “I always think, why not come somewhere free that is going to answer some of your questions, especially when it’s your first pregnancy,” Woods said. “A lot of our girls are on what we call just that tipping point of poverty where a baby could allow them to tip over into a whole different situation in life.”
Beyond the prayer and bias, the woman took issue with the use of the word “baby” rather than embryo or fetus. Overall, she felt the organization could’ve been more upfront about its stances. Its website states it doesn’t refer for abortions or abortifacients, but only in small print at the bottom of the webpage and in a blurb on its page detailing free services available. Cen tral Oregon for Life, the political wing of the PRCCO, states it doesn’t refer for abortions more prominently and more often on its website. “I don’t have an issue with what the pregnancy resources centers are doing. You want to provide wom en with support and resources to make their entrance or continued entrance into motherhood easier, fan tastic. No one’s going to say don’t provide resources, I have a huge issue with a lack of transparency on what it is that they’re doing, like, where are their values?” sheWoodssaid. said she’s heartbroken learning about bad experiences at the clinic, but believes more clients leave the clinic satisfied than not. She also said the organization is upfront about its values and that they seek to match the energy of the mother, referring to embryos and fetuses as babies if their client does and praying with their clients with permission. “We are a faith-based nonprofit organization,” Woods said. “We believe 100% in the power of a prayer. Do we talk to girls about those things? Yes, if they want us to. But we’re never forcing religion down a girl’s throat. When we talk with them we’ll say, ‘Where are you spiritually?’ Because we believe that pregnancy is physical, emotional and spiritual.”
PRC at the Pump

The Pregnancy Resource Centers of Central Oregon tailors to pregnant people and parents of children up to two years old with resources like this “boutique.” Pregnancy resource centers are criticized by some for their lack of transparency around their pro-life views.
The Shell Stop and Go station has one gas pump that’ll pump gas into your tank and money into the Pregnancy Resource Centers of Central Oregon.
The partnership with Shell is just one of several ways the PRCCO raises funds. It relies almost entire ly on donations from individual contributors and busi nesses. Its largest annual fundraiser will take place on Sept. 30 and it collects thousands of bottles during its bottle drive and proceeds from recycled materials at the BottleDrop Recycling facility. Shell declined to answer pre-written questions for this story, includ ing the percentage of proceeds donated to charity. The pumps are marked with purple signs indicating they contribute to local children’s charities but don’t speci fy specific nonprofits.

tarting in August and ending in October, Shell USA is donating a portion of its gas sales at specially marked pumps toward children’s charities select ed by the franchise owners. In Bend, four stations are participating in the Giving Pump program, one being the Stop and Go station on the intersection of Highway 20 and 27th Street. From that location, money will go to the Pregnancy Resource Centers of Central Oregon. Pregnancy resource centers like PRCCO have gotten renewed attention since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v Wade, allowing states to restrict access to abor tion. Critics say pregnancy resource centers are Chris tian pro-life organizations seeking to dissuade women from abortion, rather than legitimate resource centers. PRCCO doesn’t provide or refer people for abortions or abortifacients — drugs that induce an abortion — but rejects that it puts undue pressure on women.

Cases in Oregon State health officials ask people to stay up to date on the disease as vaccines get distributed By Jack Harvel
The Bend Planning Commission could change how the City of Bend regulates short-term housing rentals like Airbnb and VRBO. In March, Bend City Council ors directed staff to implement changes in the Bend Development Code with the intention of securing more options for affordable long-term rentals. Some Bendites expressed concern that short-term rent als could strain an already tight housing market, and that it attracts noisy tenants unsuitable for quiet neighborhoods.Over330short-term rental owners in Bend partic ipated in a survey, with many respondents indicating support for incentives to rent longer. One proposed change would repeal the proof of use requirement, which revokes short term rental operating licenses if a property is not rented as a short-term rental for over a year. The change would allow short-term rental permit holders to rent properties as long-term rentals without losing their licenses. The City currently doesn’t allow new short-term rentals within 250 of an existing one, but another pro posed amendment could double the distance to 500 feet. Neighbors within 500 feet are notified a shortterm rental is setting up shop through mailed notices of public Short-termhearings.rental licenses currently are only avail able after a landowner obtains a land-use permit and an STR operating license, pays $280 application fee and then annually renews their application for a $205 fee. A report on short-term rentals by the City from March shows the market for short-term rentals didn’t increase much over the past few years. Between 2018 and 2020 the number of whole-house short-term rent als rose slightly from 803 to 835 while the number of housing units rose from 42,630 to 44,152.
In the survey, owners cited personal use of the property, cost and tenant relations as barriers to renting long-term. Forty-one percent of the respon dents lived at the rental property, 32% live in Central Oregon, 25% live out of state and 2% live outside of the country. Only 15% owned more than one short-term rental.The City last amended its short-term rental code in 2015 with the intention to “balance the interests of Bend’s tourist economy and neighborhood livability.”

Bend considers new development codes for Airbnbs and VRBOs, in what would be the first tweaks in seven years
OHA unveiled its new web page that tracks cases, gives tips on protection and information on how people can access vaccines. As of press time 95 people had tested pos itive for Monkeypox in Oregon, including 92 men and 3 women. The spread so far is mostly concentrated in gay and bisexual men in the tri-county Portland metro area, officials say, but there have also been a handful of cases in otherPubliccounties.health officials said people who have sex with multiple partners and engage in close-contact activities like attending raves are at similar risk — while gay and bisexual men who don’t have multiple sex partners or close-contact activities are less at risk. Officials stressed that this isn’t like the COVID-19 pandemic. “Although Monkeypox is a serious public health concern and is highly infectious in certain situations, it’s not another COVID-19. Monkeypox does not spread the same way between people and is therefore not as easy to catch as COVID-19,” said state epidemiologist Dean Sidelinger. “The number of cases among individuals who have close intimate contact with someone who has monkeypox is increasing but we are not seeing, nor do we anticipate the same rapid Vaccinesspread.”aren’t available to the public yet and the near 7,000 vaccines OHA possesses are being rationed to people with known exposures to the disease. OHA will attempt to stretch its limited supply by using intrader mal vaccination, which uses one-fifth of a typical dose by injecting into the outer layer of the skin. More than 2,000 people have signed on to a waitlist to get vaccinated. Sidelinger said though it’s not another pandemic, monkey pox could be around for a while. Its mode of transmission pre vents the more pronounced public health impacts and shutdowns, but the outbreak could last years.

The Oregon Health Authority briefed media on the spread of Monkeypox on Aug. 11, explaining the statewide response to the disease that the White House declared a public health emergency at the start of the month. Monkeypox often starts with fevers and aches before evolving to painful blisters over the body.

Por / By Jack Harvel Traducido por /Translated by Jéssica Sánchez-Millar La Comisión de Planeación de Bend podría cambiar la forma en que la Ciudad de Bend regula el alquiler de viviendas a corto plazo como Airbnb y VRBO. En marzo, concejales de la ciu dad de Bend ordenaron al personal que implementará cambios en el Código de Desarrollo de Bend con la intención de asegurar más opciones para la renta accesible a largo plazo. Algunos habi tantes de Bend expresaron su preocupación de que las rentas a corto plazo puedan perjudicar un ya escaso mercado de vivienda y que atraiga a inquilinos escandalosos que no son aptos para vivir en vecindarios tranquilos. Más de 330 dueños de viviendas para la renta a corto plazo en Bend participaron en una encuesta y muchos de los encuestados indicaron su apoyo a los incentivos para rentar por más tiempo. Una cambio propuesto es el requisito de comprobante de uso, el cual revoca las licencias de operación para la renta a corto plazo si la propiedad no se renta como una vivienda para la renta a corto plazo por más de un año. Actualmente la ciudad no permite rentas nuevas a corto plazo dentro de los 250 pies de uno existente, pero otra enmienda propuesta podría duplicar la distancia a 500 pies. La comisión de planeación (The planning commission) está programada para reunirse dos veces para trabajar en los cambi os del código; primero con una sesión de trabajo a las 5:30 pm el 22 de Agosto y otra de nuevo para una audiencia pública, donde la comunidad puede ofrecer su opinión sobre los cambios propues tos la cual será el día 12 de septiembre.

202218,AUGUST/32ISSUE26VOLUME/THESOURCEWEEKLY 9 NEWS El 11 de agosto, la Secretaría de Salud de Oregon (OHA por sus siglas en inglés) informó a los medios de comunicaciòn sobre la propagación de la viruela del mono, describiendo la respuesta a nivel estatal ante la enfermedad que la casa blanca declaró como una emergencia de salud pública a comienzos del mes.

Al momento de redac tar esta nota 95 personas habían dado positivo a la viruela del mono en Oregon, incluyendo 92 hombres y 3 mujeres. Hasta ahora, indicaron las autoridades que la propagación se concen tra principalmente en los hombres homosex uales y bisexuales de la zona metropolitana de los tres municipios de Portland, pero tam bién ha habido un grupo de casos en otros municipios.Lasautoridades de salud pública dijeron que las personas que tienen relaciones sex uales con multiples parejas y que participan en actividades de contacto cercano como el asistir a raves estan en un riesgo similar, mientras que hombres homosexuales y bisex uales que no tienen multiples parejas sex uales o que no llevan a cabo actividades de contacto cercano corren menos riesgo. Las autorizades enfatizaron que esto no es como la pandemia de COVID-19. “Aunque la viruela del mono es un grave problema de salud pública y es altamente infecciosa en ciertas situaciones, no es otro COVID-19. La viruela del mono no se propa ga de la misma manera entre la gente y por eso no es tan fácil de contraer como la COVID-19,” dijo el epidemiólogo estatal Dean Sidelinger. “El número de casos entre personas que tienen contacto íntimo cerca no con alguien que tiene la viruela del mono está aumentando pero no estamos viendo, ni anticipamos la misma y rápida propagación.” Las vacunas todavía no están disponibles al público y las cerca de 7,000 vacunas con las que consta OHA están siendo racionadas para las per sonas que han sido expuestas a la enfermedad.

Shorebird topography When it comes to shorebirds, variation is the cen tral theme. One look at the size and shape of a bird’s bill can help to identify the species or at least place the bird in a certain group. The same holds true to some extent for their overall size, habitat preference or feed ingSandpipersactivity. are generally small in size and have short straight or slightly-decurved bills designed for gleaning or probing for insects or aquatic invertebrates along shore edges or in soft mud. Known collectively as “peeps” or “stints” outside of the U.S., these small ish shorebirds run along the shoreline or wade into the shallows after prey. Western and least sandpipers, two species com monly observed in Central Oregon and which nest in the Arctic or sub-Arctic areas, are both long-distance migrants. They employ a unique strategy in the fall as the adults leave the breeding grounds, prior to the juveniles, which will fatten up for their departure sev eral weeks later. Though some travel south along the Pacific Flyway, others birds travel cross-country to the Atlantic Coast, then travel southward as far as South America. When ready to migrate, the juvenile sandpip ers join in with other birds moving south. Other shorebirds that migrate through or nest in the region include black-necked stilt and American avocet. These long-legged shorebirds, standing about 14-18 inches tall, forage for aquatic invertebrates, crus taceans and insects in the shallows. The long, point ed bill of the stilt enables them to pick prey from the water’s surface or muddy bottom while the upturned bill on the avocet is designed for sweeping through the water to snatch prey. In contrast to the stilts and avocets, long-billed cur lews are large shorebirds with long decurved bills. The bills either pick up prey such as grasshoppers and bee tles out of grasslands or agricultural fields or are used to probe deep into soft mud for aquatic invertebrates, worms or crustaceans. Their loud, in-flight “kerlew” calls announce their presence.

If you get lucky, you might see a real rarity such as sanderling or stilt sandpiper.” Some shorebirds show up as early as June, but these are probably non-breed ers or birds that had nest failures. For the western and least sandpipers, the adults leave the breeding grounds prior to the juveniles by sev eralWithinweeks.Central Oregon, there are numerous birding hotspots to view shorebirds including the Summer Lake Wild life Management Area, Lake Abert
August marks the southbound shorebird migration through critical habitats across Eastern Oregon—some which are in danger from drought
August is a great month to view shorebirds, which have departed from their nesting grounds and stop in at various Central Oregon watering holes to fuel up for the rest of their journeys to their wintering grounds. “The numerous shallow lakes, wetlands and wet meadows, and even flooded fields in southeastern Oregon are crucial pit stops for entire populations of migrating and nesting shorebirds along the Pacific Flyway,” said Anne White, conservation coordinator for the Oregon Natural Desert Association. “Some travel as far north as the Arctic Circle and as far south as South America. These stopover habitats are essential for birds to replenish their reserves where there are abundant invertebrate popula tions.”For non-birders, the term “shorebird” connotates birds found near coastal waters, but to birders and biologists, the word describes a group of wading birds arranged in the scientific order Charadriiformes and includes sandpipers, plovers, phalaropes, avocets, curlews, dowitchers and many other species. The genus name, Charadrius, is from a Greek word that means “gully” and refers to the shallow depressions used by plovers for nesting sites. “There are certain species here that are not coastal,” said Marty St. Louis, retired Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife manager of the Summer Lake Wildlife Man agement Area. “What comes to mind is the black-necked stilt and western willet; there’s an abundance of them here in the interior West.”

202218,AUGUST/32ISSUE26VOLUME/THESOURCEWEEKLY 13 FEATURE (in good water years), Hatfield Ponds, Redmond Sew age Ponds, Haystack Reservoir and the Crooked Riv er Wetlands in Prineville. Farther afield, areas such as the Malheur and Klamath National Wildlife Refuges and Warner Wetlands near Lakeview offer nesting and stopover habitats for these species, as well.
The paved trails that loop through the wetlands offer visitors excellent and often close-up views of shorebirds and waterfowl feeding along the water’s edge or in the ponds. The whirling feeding habit of the phalaropes is an interesting contrast to the staccato probing of the long-billed dowitchers. The City of Bend’s secondary-wastewater ponds are known as the Hatfield Ponds. One of the best areas to view shorebirds in Central Oregon, birders find that a spotting scope is handy to view birds from a distance.
Conservation issues Talking about shorebirds in the Interior West region has to include a conversation about water, especially in the closed basins fed by snowmelt, streams and springs—but impacted by irrigation, water impoundments and evapotrans piration.“
“The Prineville Bird Club teams up with the Crook ed River Wetlands Volunteers and sponsors a Wetlands Walk on the First and Third Saturdays of the warmer months of the year,” said Gates. “The walks in August and September are primarily focused on shorebirds because those are some of the most common birds there at those times.”
The East Cascades Audubon Society erected a beauti ful bulletin board at the entrance with a map and col lage of commonly observed birds. Though sometimes the gate is open, driving access is for City workers or law enforcement personnel who use the shooting range in the southeast corner of the property. For the rest of us it’s walk-in only. Nine species of shorebirds nest at Summer Lake, and the auto tour provides easy access to view these and migrant species from the car. “Red-necked phalaropes are a sub-Arctic breeder, but this area is a corridor or pathway that they move through in spring or fall,” said St. Louis, the retired Summer Lake manager. “In the last 10 years that I was there at the Wildlife Area, we really got aggressive with our utilization of water and enhancing the ability to move it around. There are time periods out there, also, where you can make adjustments to really favor shore birds and other waterbirds, tying into their migration.” “In the spring, shorebirds are in a hurry to get up north and get the best breeding locations so they spend little time in our area,” said Gates. “Fall is a dif ferent story. Birds slowly work their way south, feeding as they go. Since there is no rush, they may stay in one location for days or even weeks. Spring shorebird sea son lasts around a month. Fall shorebird season, by some standards, can be four months long.”
The numerous shallow lakes, wetlands and wet meadows, and even flood ed fields in southeastern Oregon are crucial pit stops for entire popula tions of migrating and nesting shorebirds along the Pacific Flyway,” said White of the DNDA. “As the largest saline lake in the Pacific Northwest and one of only three hypersa line lakes in the western U.S., Lake Abert is a vital habitat to migrating birds. Populations of brine shrimp and alkali flies are each estimated to exceed 300 billion individuals in past years, providing an irreplaceable food source forTheavifauna.”National Audubon Society includes the 57-square-mile Lake Abert and many other inland waterways as part of its Important Bird Areas. “Since 2011, we’ve been doing bird surveys at Lake Abert in the summer and that means mostly shore birds,” said John Reuland, volunteer for East Cascades Audubon Society. “During migratory season, we’ve seen a couple hundred thousand phalaropes out on the lake, as well as numerous willets, American avo cets and black-necked stilts.” But Lake Abert is currently suffering from drought, upstream irrigation, holding ponds and a lack of instream water rights connected to the lake. “Our data shows, from a shorebird perspective, the lake is getting destroyed,” added Reuland. “The salinity is so high that even the brine shrimp that live out there can’t tol erateBirdit.”studies throughout the region have shown the inner-connectedness of these inland habitats for migratory stopovers both between years and with in years. “These birds are highly capable and mobile to be able to move about and exploit these habitats when they are in prime condition,” said St. Louis. However, summer evapo transpiration losses may be in the range of 48-52 inches per year, which can dra matically affect these inland lakes, already stressed by drought, and impact the qual ity of the habitat for migrating“Solvingbirds.for the increasingly fre quent desiccation of Lake Abert is a com plex task that will require state govern ment to take action to measure, monitor, allocate, permit and even apply for water rights for Lake Abert in the Chewaucan River basin,” said White. ONDA and other organizations are advocat ing for protection of the lake. “It’s really impressive when the lake is full of water but it’s kind of heart breaking where it is now,” said Reuland. Continued monitoring of avian populations at Lake Abert and upcoming studies focused on the larger scale distribution of shorebirds across the Great Basin will contribute to understanding the status of shore birds nesting and migrating through the inland West. Advocacy may lead to legislative action on behalf of Abert Lake, so stay tuned on that front. In the mean time, why not undertake a road trip to witness these shorebirds on their amazing southbound journey and experience this cyclical wonder of Nature that has been going on for thousands of years.

Artist Fact Sheet: Tommy Guerrero
SOUNDS Insurance withBlendingAcceptedNatureMedicine , N.D. Many people know Tommy Guerrero for his work bombing down the hills of San Francisco with Powell Peralta and the Bones Brigade team. His laidback style on a skateboard was so enjoyable and easy to watch. Above all else, Guerrero was just simply cool. His career in skateboarding is the stuff of legend. But he’s also a highly-skilled guitarist, bassist and com poser who has been playing for almost as long as he’s been skating. Those who haven’t looked into Guerre ro’s passion for music are really missing out. Guerrero is heading to the Volcanic Theatre Pub on Aug. 19. Maybe if you’re lucky you might even see him skating around somewhere before the show. Get bet ter acquainted with Guerrero’s tunes with this Artist Fact Sheet. Where he’s from: Guerrero is a SF native, born in 1966. He started off playing in bands like Jerry’s Kids and Free Beer when he was a young teenager—the lat ter of which would go on to become skatepunk royal ty. Guerrero didn’t put out his first solo album until 1997, which he initially did not intend to release. He was also a member of post-rock instrumental outfit Jet Black Crayon. Guerrero still puts out solo music and he’s also a member of Los Days, an ambient-rock duo pairing up himself and multi-instrumentalist Josh Lip pi. The pair released their second album this January. What’s to like: All together Guerrero has 12 solo albums under his belt that each offer something a little different. With chilled-out tempos and grooves, Guer rero pulls influence from rock, hip-hop, jazz, soul, funk, blues, Latin music and more. Most of his songs are instrumentals, but there are flashes of vocal per formances on multiple tracks. He’s a master of under standing the mellow—so more often than not his tunes are perfect for late nights at home, those days spent walking or skating the streets and even for hit ting the beach. Four of my favorite Guerroro albums are “Soul Food Taqueria” (2003), “Perpetual” (2015), “Loose Grooves and Bastard Blues” (1997) and “Road to Knowhere” (2018). Songs to start with: “Organism,” “Sidewalk Soul,” “In My Head,” “At The Circles Edge,” and “By Fist and Fury” For fans of: Khruangbin, Ray Barbee, The Mattson 2, Tortoise, Curly Giraffe Random Internet Dig Fact: Growing up playing in a band named Free Beer was a funny situation for Guerrero because he was underage at the time it start ed. As he told Thrasher Magazine in 2018, one time Guerrero got crammed inside the band’s kick-drum case because he wasn’t old enough to be inside the club. He hid backstage until showtime. Tommy Guerrero Fri., Aug 19, 9pm Volcanic Theatre Pub 70 SW Century Dr., BEnd $15 on Bendticket Tommy Guerrero’s latest album, “Sunshine Radio,” is out now on streaming services. Claudine Gossett

Persian (and American) Flavors for Redmond A new restaurant featuring both Persian and American flavors held its soft open ing last month in Redmond. Saffron Grill is located on NW Sixth Street in Redmond, close to the Sleep Inn. Its menu includes chicken tandoori and tika beef kebabs and lamb chops all served with Afghan-style basmati rice on the Persian side of the menu, as well as burgers and pizzas on the more “American” side. The restaurant is slowly adding more Persian menu items as more staff members come on board, its owners told the Source. Saffron Grill also offers a full bar and sports on TV.
Crumbl Cookies, the 500+ strong cookie chain, has expanded to Bend.

Not too many secret spots are left in downtown Bend where you can just roll in and fill yourself with incredi ble food and beverages without reserva tions. But for these last few months I’ve been selfish and absolutely devastated by all the food and adult beverages at my favorite downtown happy hour with out having to fight my way to a table, throwing elbows at tourists and locals alike. But it’s time. I’m blowing up the spot. If you’re not enjoying the happy hour and dinner at Chomp Chomp, then your FOMO meter should be exploding. Chomp Chomp opens at 3pm and for the next two hours serves what I think is legitimately the best happy hour in downtown. Then at 5pm, the whole menu opens up with some of the most exciting and diverse dishes in town. Since I am a science man, I decided the only fair thing to do was to get to Chomp Chomp at 3:30pm, eat everything on the happy hour menu until 5pm and then dive into the dinner menu. I don’t necessarily rec ommend everyone eat as much as I did, but also it’s some thing you should absolutely do. But what is Chomp Chomp, you ask? Well, I’ll tell you! On the surface it’s a fusion restaurant, bridging New North western Cuisine with classic Asian dishes, but it isn’t just fus ing the culinary traditions of different countries and cultures; it’s also combin ing flavors like a kitchen full of mad sci entists. I’ll get into it. First of all, my favorite alcoholic bev erage on the happy hour menu is the “Hot Girl Summer” (I’m good with it), a mango margarita with house-infused spicy tequila and Tajín all over the rim. I never thought spicy mango was a fla vor I needed, but now it’s all I can think about. If you are a fan of coconut, the “One Night in Bangkok” mixes your favorite fruit/nut/seed with a deeply spicy vodka and lime, creating a sweet and spicy explosiveness I’ve legit nev er tasted. And don’t even get me started on the “Gin n’ Juniper” which combines flawless Crater Lake Gin, blackber ries, juniper, cardamom and tonic with a beautifully fragrant piece of smoking rosemary.Formy (sort-of) hard-earned dollars, there’s no better way to spend $5 than the happy hour bowl of Karaage fried chicken bites. Delicately coated and breaded and dipped in Chomp Chomp’s outstanding miso mayo, this is my go-to snack downtown from now on. This is your new obsession. If you disagree, you can mail your uneaten Karaage to me care of the Source Weekly. The flash-fried Brussels sprouts are topped with a delicious lemon sesa me dressing, pickled carrots and yucca strips.

su has a cider slaw on it that is so complex I’m not sure I even know how to describe the flavor profile. But…BUT…the Sticky Wings shall become legendary. Just look at the pic ture. Imagine that first bite, where the smokiness of the fry combines with the light heat of the sweetness of the Jap anese and the Northwestern heartiness ramen, downtown, for $10. It’s a whole newAfterworld.happy hour ended and I tried all of the things, I had me another “Hot Girl Summer” and ordered the Chompfuu Hiroshima-fuu, a spinoff of the sta ple Okonomiyaki (basically a Japanese pancake). The Hiroshima version of Okonomiyaki is stuffed with more cab bage than the Osaka version and Chomp Chomp seamlessly fuses the classic preparation with New Northwestern protein preparation for a dish unlike anything I’ve ever tasted. Basically, it’s the pancake topped with crispy, braised fusing regions and countries dishes, they’re actually fusing flavors in ways I haven’t tasted before. The complex ity of the sticky wings comes from a fearless tightrope walk of spicy, savory and sweet. The Okonomiyaki takes the deceptive simplicity of the pancake and adds smoke, heat and tang. Every single dish is an explosion of not just flavors, but ideas. Chomp Chomp is pushing food forward into areas not normal ly explored in the Northwest. See what they’re doing. It’s special.
Happy hour ramen, inset left, and sticky wings, above, call for a Hot Girl Summer that the writer already downed.

WHERE THE CRAWDADS SING: I really liked this book and actress Daisy Edgar-Jones is a fantastic new talent, so hopefully this Rural Noir murder mystery catches the imaginations of people unfa miliar with the story. If the advanced reviews are accurate, the film doesn’t quite capture the same magic as the book does, but not many movies adapt novels very well in the first place. Regal Old Mill
Regal Old Mill EASTER SUNDAY: Comedian Jo Koy gets his first starring role as a man returning home to his wacky family for Easter shenanigans. It’s directed by Jay Chandrasekhar (who did “Super Troopers), so hope fully this has some big laughs and bigger heart. Regal Old Mill ELVIS: I would have zero interest in this one if it wasn’t from the same filmmaker that did “Moulin Rouge,” so I know it will at least be visually inter esting. Sorry, I just don’t care about Elvis. I like the musicians he ripped off quite a bit more. Regal Old Mill, Odem Theater Pub EMILY THE CRIMINAL: Aubrey Plaza breaks bad in this deliriously intense crime drama that feels like one part “Uncut Gems” mixed with two parts of just being poor in America. Regal Old Mill FALL: Look, a movie made about my worst nightmare: being trapped at the top of a mile-high antenna tower. This looks terrifying and also kind of fun, I guess, if you like full blown panic attacks with your motion picture experience. Regal Old Mill FIRE OF LOVE: This documentary is an astounding look at Katia and Maurice Krafft, two French vol canologists whose love was as fiery as the magma they encountered. Or something equally cheesy. Seriously, you’ve never seen a documentary like this, I promise. It’s beautiful and a strong reminder of the art that lives in all humans. Regal Old Mill, Tin Pan Theater A LOVE SONG: For many years Dale Dickey and Wes Studi have been a pair of our finest character actors. Come spend 81-minutes with them as they fish, stare at the stars and navigate love across the American West. Sisters Movie House MACK & RITA: A frustrated 30-year-old influencer goes on a bachelorette trip and magically trans forms into Diane Keaton. I don’t know what requires more suspension of disbelief: the age-swapping premise or that the filmmakers think there are still 30-year-old influencers. Regal Old Mill, Sisters Movie House MARCEL THE SHELL WITH SHOES ON: Did you fall in love with the hilarious and touching YouTube vid eos of Marcel (voiced by the luminous Jenny Slate) when they came out a few years ago? Of course you did. Well, this feature length story about the little shell searching for his people is one of the sweetest and kindest movies of the last few years. A joy. See full review on page 39.

FILM SHORTS By Jared Rasic Your friendly local film reviewer’s takes on what’s out there in the world of movies. Courtesy IMdb
TOP GUN: MAVERICK: There’s a reason why Tom Cruise is the last true movie star and it’s mostly because he’s that perfect blend of creepy, weird and desperate to entertain us—and boy does he. This feels like a true Hollywood crowd-pleaser in a way we haven’t seen in years. Talk about a highway to the danger zone. Regal Old Mill, Odem Theater Pub
The Race to Alaska.
THE RACE TO ALASKA: Do you want to be pinned to your theater seat for a couple hours while watching a documentary about one of the most dangerous races in the world? Good, because that’s absolutely going to happen here. Have fun with that. Tin Pan Theater
BEAST: Idris Elba vs. a lion. If there’s more that you need than that then we are just fundamentally different people. Regal Old Mill. BODIES BODIES BODIES: A meta horror comedy that tries to reframe the high concept hilarity of “Scream” for post-Millennials and the Zoom generation. Pete Davidson is in it, so I guess this movie will be our news cycle for the next few weeks, although it does look entertaining and fun. Regal Old Mill, Tin Pan Theater BULLET TRAIN: Why yes, I would like to see Brad Pitt fight a train full of assassins as it speeds across Japan. When you’ve got one of the co-creators of the “John Wick” franchise behind the camera, that means there’s a good chance this will have some brains and some heart behind all the carnage. Count me in. Regal Old Mill, Sisters Movie House, Odem Theater Pub DC LEAGUE OF SUPER-PETS: This animated adventure sees The Rock and Kevin Hart as the voice of Superman and Batman’s respective dogs that must team up to save their respective Super Partners. The trailers for this aren’t great, but I’ve been a fan of the Super-Pets since I was a kid, so don’t be surprised if you see me at the theater.
THOR: LOVE AND THUNDER: Writer/director Taika Waititi is one of our most innovative filmmakers and “Love and Thunder” is packed with mind-blowing visuals and some of his most irreverent humor yet. Don’t believe the negativity, this is an absolute blast. I hope we get Thor movies forever. Regal Old Mill
NOPE: One of my most anticipated movies of 2022 is finally here: Jordan Peele’s third feature as a director. Instead of doing another deep dive into the fractured psyche of humanity, this is an alien invasion story unlike any we’ve ever seen. This managed to exceed every single expectation I had for it.

202218,AUGUST/32ISSUE26VOLUME/THESOURCEWEEKLY 39 SC One Shell of a Movie "Marcel the Shell with Shoes On" is perfect By Jared Rasic SCREEN
I might have made the movie sound depressing, but it’s actually incredibly life-affirming while constantly reminding us to never forget the sweetness inside of the bittersweet. It’s an actual perfect film. The conversations parents will have with their kids on the drive home from the movie theater will be life chang ing, as “Marcel” never talks down to the children in the audience, instead treat ing them like people who are capable of growth and the exploration of ideas. I won’t ever forget “Marcel” and I doubt anyone who watches the mov ie will, either. In fact, I wouldn’t mind adopting his philosophy of life from here on out: To seek adventure, to cher ish the ephemeral, to be good to myself and others, and if I can, to protect the good that exists in each day. It doesn’t sound easy, but if Marcel can do it, then so can we. Marcel proves he can be ready for anything.
Iget that I’m a giant softie whose heart is made of marshmallows and love songs, but the first time I watched “Marcel the Shell with Shoes On” I cried four separate times across the brief 90-minute run time. Normally, I love me a good cry, but I was working at Tin Pan Theater at the time, and trying not to blow snot bubbles in front of 30 strang ers while popping popcorn is a level of multi-tasking I was not prepared for. “Marcel” started as a YouTube trilo gy of shorts, released between 2010 and 2014. Directed by Dean Fleischer-Camp and voiced by American treasure Jenny Slate, the shorts were viral sensations that one could cynically assume couldn’t carry the foundation of an entire feature film. However, not only is the theatrical debut of Marcel a fantastic movie, but it’s a stronger piece of filmmaking than all three shorts combined. Yes, “Marcel the Shell with Shoes On” sounds like a ridiculous kids mov ie that parents might assume they would be suffering through for family movie night, but even though Marcel himself is an anthropomorphic, stop-motion animated talking shell, the movie is grounded in very human emotions. As one could expect from production house A24, there’s a deep melancholy to the film that will absolutely wreck adults, but Marcel is cute and funny enough to keep kids from wondering why the car toon they’re watching is so somber. Marcel is living in an Airbnb with his grandmother Connie, who is slow ly succumbing to dementia. They’ve been alone in the house since the pre vious owners, a married couple, split up and accidentally took the rest of Mar cel and Connie’s extended family away in a suitcase. Marcel struggles every day to figure out how to provide for himself and Connie, while dropping constant ly beautiful philosophical nuggets and keeping his Gran entertained. Enter Dean (played by director Dean Fleischer-Camp), a filmmaker who starts documenting Marcel and Connie’s dayto-day life. The entire movie is basically these beautifully observed moments of human existence seen through the eyes of tiny non-human creatures. Marcel says things so simple and so profound that I found myself constantly in awe of the script by Fleischer-Camp, Slate and Nick Paley.

Scavenger hunt lets Bendites prove who knows Bend best
Ultimate Scavenger was started by Joshua Savage (an occasional contributor to the Source) and expanded this year to include a hunt in Redmond, as it was just in Bend last year. The Redmond event happened last week, but if you participated last week, why not double up and prove your knowledge about Central Oregon as a whole? Thecost of the event is $20-$80 per adult, depending on team size. If not partic ipating in the scavenger hunt yourself, keep an eye out for people running around town looking for clues. You might just be the key to a team’s victory. HERE By Chris Williams
All right Bendites, it’s time to flex your knowledge about all things Bend! Ulti mate Scavenger is putting on a city-wide event that brings participants across town to everyone’s favorite landmarks, nature spots and art displays—plus plenty of new discoveries, too. Think you know Bend best? Prove it!
The scavenger hunt starts at Bevel Craft Brewing and will offer participants clues as to what to find and where to go next. With all the roundabout art, murals, his torical sights and nature in town, it’s hard to imagine what won’t be included in the hunt! Hunters will compete for cash prizes and the bragging rights that come with knowing Bend better than anyone else. The scavenger hunt is a great way to flex local knowledge, but is also perfect for any tourist or newcomer to learn about the town. The clues can be challenging but are designed to be family friendly, so find out what your kids know about the town. Need an extra challenge? Try going phone-less except to take pictures.
Top, flies on flies on flies. So many choices! Below, the author with a Fall River Redside caught with a home made fly.
Most newbies start with a single pat tern, and Bowers suggests purchasing materials specific to the fly one intends to make. “Just like baking a cake, tying involves a recipe. Start with the ingre dients you need, make your fly, then move to the next recipe,” he said. “Many materials are used for multiple styles, so as your journey (flows) along, you will need to pick up fewer and fewer items.”
“Poets talk about ‘spots of time,’ but it is really the fishermen who experience eterni ty compressed into a moment. No one can tell what a spot of time is until suddenly the whole world is a fish and the fish is gone.” -Norman Maclean
The Wooly Bugger is a subsurface fly that articulates in the water like a leach or small fish, and should be in every fly angler’s selection. Having various sizes and colors of each pattern is also help ful in unlocking the fish catching code. “When it comes to color, you always want to use opposite ends of the spec trum,” Lewis said. “If you tie up one in black, make another one in white. You always want some variance in both the size and color of your patterns,” he says. Other popular fish catching patterns include the Pheasant Tail and Midge. “Especially here in Central Oregon, (those three) patterns represent a food source that are prevalent year around,” says Lewis.

Additionally Bowers recommends shy ing away from pre-made kits and online materials. “Good flies are made from good materials and a local shop is (abso lutely) the best way to get them.”
Peter Bowers has owned and oper ated The Patient Angler for the past 25 years, and when not chasing local trout and steelhead, he is at his Third Street shop, sharing the stoke of flyfishing and fly “Itying.got started because it just became part of the game, the obsession,” says Bowers of how he began tying his own flies. “It was just part of the game. Tying (my own) makes the art come full circle and gives you some connection to fish ing during the times when you are not on the water,” he said. “As you begin to get into the bug world more, the ento mology, you realize that you have the option to tweak things and make them better,” says Bowers. Fishing as a hobby can become expensive, and the more one fishes, the more tackle one will need. Bowers says “when you fish a lot, you can also save money by tying your own.” For the beginner, getting your toolkit started will only cost about $75. “You are going to build up your tool kit, materials library and skills, as time goes by,” says Bowers. “But by far the most important advice is to learn the basic techniques of tying a fly,” he sug gested. “Putting the hook in a vise, turn ing the thread and how to stack and balance the materials is best learned in the beginning from an instructor.”

“O, sir, doubt not that Angling is an art; is it not an art to deceive a trout with an artificial fly?” - Izaac Walton
Getting Buggy The simple and fruitful delight of fly-tying By David Sword
O OUTSIDE
There is a section of water in Cen tral Oregon where the perfect rec reational scenario is unfolding. A hungry trout is nestled behind a large boulder, waiting for a delicious treat to come into its sights. On the shore above this rainbow-colored denizen is a fly fisher. Crouched low to remain invisible, they cast a fly upstream of the hungry fish. As the fly floats in the cur rent, the trout makes an immediate and committing decision to eat it. The fly line becomes tight as the fish begins to pull, bending the fisher’s fly rod into an arc and ripping line from the reel as it powers across the stream in attempt to evade its captor. Moments later the fish is landed, honored for its beauty, revived and released back to its watery habitat. A perfect moment made even more spe cial, because the successfully presented fly was made by the fly fisher themself. String and feather Since the 2nd Century, anglers have been using materials such as thread, feathers and beads to imitate the bugs that fish love to eat. From the wormy looking nymph to the archetypical dry fly, imitation flies are as diverse as art in a gallery. With hundreds of species of insects wiggling and flying around, choosing where to start can be a daunt ingJoetask.Lewis, manager at Fly and Field in Bend, says, “A good way to get start ed is to pick patterns that you will be using for your entire fly fishing career. I always like to start with the Wooly Bug ger, because you can tie it small or large, in any color, and can fish it in lakes and streams for warm or coldwater species (like bass or trout).”
Tools of the trade
“You’d have Plexiglass where I can show people the different stages of growing and fertigation,” says Eakin, thus teaching me the term for simulta neous fertilization and irrigation. The entire process takes as little as four weeks when resulting from the more prevalent indoor growing operations. Surprisingly, the room for young roots, manipulated by spring-like lighting and temperature, was staid and scentless, but the adjacent room that replicates autumn smelled like a mermaid skunk yoga studio. And the intense white LEDs gave it a celestial glow like get ting to go to heaven without the bum mer of “Thesedying.are the trichomes that grow these little pistils that grow up and once they start to turn milky or even light brown, or that golden color, that’s when the THC is reaching its maxi mum,” Eakin points out of the later stage of cultivation. Seeing it with my own eyes—and nose—instantly gave me a deeper understanding of what it takes for product to reach my favor ite dispensary. Although kushy jars were plentiful, I’m enamored by White Wolf’s idea to offer a less processed, more-resinous, trichrome-rich grow er’s cut. Perhaps that’ll be a farm store exclusive if the law allows. In addition to a forthcoming wel come center, Alex showed me around the farm including a gorgeous 40-foot table in one of his greenhouses where he hopes to host dinners like Outstand ing in the Fields, but more like Far Out, Man, in the Fields. And unlike brewery or winery tasting rooms where visitors get the boot at closing time, Alex hopes to rent tiny houses on the ranch for guests to sleep. And wake’n’bake like never before.

White Wolf Cannabis Co. wants to heighten consumer education By Brian Yaeger Unlike the idiomatic disinterest in seeing how sausage is made, many of us truly love seeing how stuff we love gets made. In Bend the Deschutes Brewery welcomes nearly a million guests annually, who sip Fresh Squeezed IPA in front of the mash tun. The Tillamook Creamery ushers in some 1.3 million visitors who not only watch the ice cream-mak ing process, but don’t leave without sampling, say, freshly-made Mari onberry Pie ice cream. Alas, while winery and distillery tours are commonplace, and a trip to a near by orchard for a day of U-Pick fruit har vesting is a cherished tradition, visits to cannabis farms remain verboten. Who among us who’s 420-friendly wouldn’t kill (a veggie wrap) for a day of U-pick There’sherb?no legislation stalled in the halls of Salem that would permit marijuana growers to sell directly to consumers or even allow them to vis it the farms (or warehouses) where they grow the devil’s lettuce. But that hasn’t deterred Alex Eakin, the found er of White Wolf Cannabis, who bears a striking resemblance to Brian Austin Green, from planning to build a landing pad for eventual visitors. White Wolf, established in 2016, operates a vertical growing operation on a rustic, inviting plot of land in Tumalo. Eakin can’t wait for the day he and his growing partner can welcome cannatourists to the same type of experience that other agricul ture warriors soak up freely. Oregon craft beer drinkers discern their lime’n’lychee-throwing Citra hops from their passion fruit’n’pine apple inducing Simcoe hops through sample flights. Coffee connoisseurs learn their fruity, floral Ethiopian Yir gacheffe from their earthy, smoky Gua tamalan Antigua through cuppings. The only way to discover that terroir, cou pled with one’s personal preferences, is to sample as many varieties as possible. That’s the allure of variety-packs of sin gle-origin chocolates. There are afficionados on both sides of the dispensary counters, but bud ding flower fans would get to survey a bouquet of strains, experiencing the nuances in flavors, and effects. Visits to these funny farms could reverse canna’s commoditization and optimally pres ent the agricultural jewel by elevating consumer education and appreciation. Thanks to golden-ticket press cre dentials, I now have a better under standing of the process pakalolo undergoes from farm to fatty (all with out so much as a puff so I avoid ed a psychoactive fate like Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory’s sightseers met). While there are mitigating risks to the plants becom ing infested or infected by visitors—especially ones who may have just come from another farm, many cannafarmers would relish the opportunity to usher in fans.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): In the Spansh language, there’s the idiom pensando en la in mortalidad del cangrejo. Its literal translation is “thinking about the immortality of the crab.” It ap plies to a person engaged in creative daydream ing—her imagination wandering freely in hopes of rousing innovative solutions to practical di lemmas. Other languages have similar idioms. In Finnish, istun ja mietin syntyjä syviä means “won dering about the world’s early origins.” Polish has marzyć o niebieskich migdałach, or “dreaming about blue almonds.” I encourage you to enjoy an abundance of such explorations in the com ing days, Capricorn. You need to fantasize more than usual.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): You know more about how karma works than all the other signs. Scorpio-style intelligence typically has a fine in tuitive grasp of how today’s realities evolved out of the deep patterns and rhythms of the past. But that doesn’t mean you perfectly understand how karma works. And in the coming weeks, I urge you to be eager to learn more. Become even savvier about how the law of cause and effect impacts the destinies of you and your allies. Meditate on how the situations you are in now were influenced by actions you took once upon a time. Ruminate on what you could do in the near future to foster good karma and diminish weird karma.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Kabbalis tic writer Simon Jacobson says, “Like a flame, the soul always reaches upward. The soul’s fire wants to defy the confines of life. It cannot toler ate the mediocrity and monotony of sheer mate rialism. Its passion knows no limits as it craves for the beyond.” That sounds both marvelous and hazardous, right? Jacobson concludes, “Whether the soul’s fire will be a constructive or destructive force is dependent on the person’s motivation.” According to my astrological analysis, your deep motivations are likely to be extra noble and gener ous in the coming weeks, Sagittarius. So I expect that your soul’s fire will be very constructive.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): Cancerian poet Danusha Laméris discovered that earthworms have taste buds all over their bodies. Now she loves to imagine she’s giving them gifts when she drops bits of apples, beets, avocados, mel ons, and carrot tops into the compost bin. “I’d always thought theirs a menial life, eyeless and hidden, almost vulgar.” But now that she under stands “they bear a pleasure so sublime,” she wants to help the worms fulfill their destinies. I mention this, Cancerian, because I suspect you may have comparable turnarounds in the coming weeks. Long-held ideas may need adjustments. Incomplete understandings will be filled in when you learn the rest of the story. will stream of chang es mind, mostly
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Whenever you are contemplating a major decision, I hope you raise questions like these: 1. Which option shows the most self-respect? 2. Which path would be the best way to honor yourself? 3. Which choice is most likely to help you fulfill the purposes you came to earth to carry out? 4. Which course of ac tion would enable you to express your best gifts? Are there questions you would add, Virgo? I expect the coming months will require you to generate key decisions at a higher rate than usual, so I hope you will make intensive use of my guiding inqui ries, as well as any others you formulate.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You should never allow yourself to be tamed by others. That advice is al ways apropos for you Leos, and even more crucial to heed in the coming weeks. You need to cultivate maximum access to the raw, primal sources of your life energy. Your ability to thrive depends on how well you identify and express the beautiful animal within you. Here’s my only caveat: If you imagine there may be value in being tamed a little, in harnessing your brilliant beast, do the taming yourself. And assign that task to the part of you that possesses the wildest wisdom.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): My Aquarian reader Georgie Lee wrote to tell me what it’s like being an Aquarius. I offer it to you because you are potentially at the peak of expressing the qualities she names. She says, “Accept that you don’t real ly have to understand yourself. Be at peace with how you constantly ramble, swerve, and weave to become more of yourself. Appreciate how each electric shift leads to the next electric shift, al ways changing who you are forever. Within the churning, ever-yearning current, marvel at how you remain eternal, steady, and solid—yet always evolving, always on a higher ground before.”
ARIES (March 21-April 19): In the coming weeks, I urge you to flee from stale and rigid certainty. Rebel against dogmatic attitudes and arrogant opinions. Be skeptical of unequivo cal answers to nuanced questions. Instead, dear Aries, give your amused reverence to all that’s mysterious and enigmat ic. Bask in the glimmer of intriguing paradoxes. Draw inspiration and healing from the fertile unknown. For inspiration, write out this Mary Oliver poem and carry it with you: “Let me keep my dis tance, always, from those who think they have the answers. Let me keep company with those who say ‘Look!’ and laugh in astonishment, and bow their heads.”
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): A blogger named Chaconia writes, “I’ve cultivated a lifetime of be ing low maintenance and easy-going, and now I’ve decided I’m done with it. Demanding Me is born today.” I’m giving you temporary permission to make a similar declaration, Taurus. The astro logical omens suggest that in the coming weeks, you have every right to be a charming, enchanting, and generous version of a demanding person. So I authorize you to be just that. Enjoy yourself as you ask for more of everything. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): The witch Lisa Chamberlain writes about the magical properties of colors. About brown, she says it “represents endurance, solidity, grounding, and strength.” She adds that it’s used in magic to enhance “balance, concentration, material gain, home, and com panion animals.” According to my reading of the astrological omens, the upcoming weeks should be a deeply brown time for you Geminis. To move your imagination in a righteous direction, have fun wearing clothes in shades of brown. Grace your environment with things that have the hues of chestnut, umber, mahogany, sepia, and burnt sienna. Eat and drink caramel, toffee, cinnamon, almonds, coffee, and chocolate.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Libran blogger Ana-Sofia Cardelle writes, “I look back on past versions of myself with such love and tenderness. I want to embrace myself at different parts of my life.” I hope you’re inspired by her thoughts as you carry out the following ac tions: 1. Create an altar filled with treasures that symbolize major turning points in your destiny. 2. Forgive yourself for what you imagine to be old errors and ignorance. 3. Sum mon memories of the persons you were at ages 7, 12, and 17, and write a kind, thoughtful message to each. 4. Literally kiss seven different photos of your face from earlier in your life. 5. Say “thank you” and “bless you” to the self you were when you succeeded at two challenging tests in the past.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Here’s a good way build your vibrancy: Use your emotional intelli gence to avoid swimming against strong currents for extended periods. Please note that swimming against strong currents is fine, even advisable, for brief phases. Doing so boosts your stamina and fosters your trust in your resilience. But mostly, I recommend you swim in the same direction as the currents or swim where the water is calm and currentless. In the coming weeks, I suspect you can enjoy many freestyle excursions as you head in the same direction as vigorous currents.

202218,AUGUST/32ISSUE26VOLUME/THESOURCEWEEKLY 45On a recent hot (triple digit) sum mer evening at Bend’s Midtown Yacht Club, my friend and I were thankful for the icy-cold mist spritzed from tiny nozzles suspended above our heads. The only two at a large wood en spool table, we welcomed a mid dle-aged man and his two teenagers who asked if they could join us. It’s one of the unique qual ities of al fresco food cart learnedtomealaspontaneouslycourts—strangerssharingcommontableforaandconversation.Whilehiskidsranoffplacedinnerorders,wethatthisyoung(to us) man had saved enough money to leave a high-powered, non-stop, stress-in ducing, sedentary job in California and move with his family to Bend. Gaining that financial freedom took its toll. He said he arrived in Central Oregon a year ago spent, out of shape, allergy-afflict ed, depressed. Looking at the fit, ener gized man seated across from us we had to ask…what was his secret? His answer? Sitting for prolonged periods of time submerged in cold lakes and rivers, breathing through a snorkel. You got that right. His children, who had returned with plates of food, enthusi astically nodded their affirmation, fol lowed by a go-figure shrug. He explained that after settling in Bend and considering next steps, he stumbled across the website of Wim Hof, a Dutch extreme athlete whose systematic exposure to cold has “enabled him to control his breathing, heartrate and blood circulation.” Our inadvertent dinner guest was intrigued by these claims, started following the teachings of this proponent of icy. He did it right, going slowly, paying atten tion to the dos and don’ts. He told us that, no question, his brain acuity, mood, allergies and metabolism had improved since going cold and, for his next career, he’s contemplating open ing a Wim Hof branch in Bend. In recent years cold water thera py has become popular across all age groups. The number of meet-up groups at Mental Health Swims, a British non profit, has grown to 80 since 2019. In New England, daily dunks in the win ter are a thing. From the United States to the Netherlands, the popularity of New Year’s Day Polar Bear Plung es has grown to the tens of thousands including Scotland’s “Loony Dook” at which thousands brave the freez ing water. Participants parade through South Queensferry acting like “loonies” preceding the “dook.” It’s claimed a good percentage of the loonies are still inebriated from New Year’s Eve cele brations and likely lost a bet.
Similar to using cold water to cure what ails is whole body cryothera py which involves standing in a sealed container while extremely cold air is circulated around the body. Like the Wim Hof Method, the procedure claims relief from arthritis, anxi ety, depression and improved memory function. Unlike the Wim Hof Method, cryotherapy requires an appointment and there is a charge for each session. Hof takes a more DYI approach: start with a warm shower, gradual ly adjust the temperature colder and colder until you can tolerate the frigid torrent for at least twoJustminutes.mention to anyone 60 and old er ways to improve brain and memo ry function, never mind get rid of the aches and blues, and you have their/ my attention. It’s sobering to real ize the average age of late-onset Alz heimer’s is 60. Loss of hearing, living alone, all of which often accompany ageing, contribute to dementia.

And it’s a lot more fun than popping AlphaBrain or Neuriva. If stay ing power is any indication of irrefut able benefits, cold water has been used to improve health for centuries starting with Hippocrates in Ancient Greece. Rolling in the snow after a sauna is a Scandinavian-perfected oldie but good ie. How about when randy young men were dispatched to take a cold shower to cool their, well, jets? Now men and women alike are headed for the frosty to keep synapses and muscles firing. One of my favorite hikes in the Cas cades is the 13-mile Green Lakes Loop. The climb parallels Soda Creek until catching the Broken Top trail to the lakes, just in time for a picnic and an icy dip before descending via the popu lar Green Lakes Trail back down to the parking lot. My sore feet and tired mus cles are always instantly rejuvenated by the cold swim. Everything old feels new again, including me. —Poet and author Ellen Waterston is a woman of a certain age who resides in Bend. “The Third Act” is a series of col umns on ageing and ageism.
