EDITOR’S NOTE: This week, we’re rolling out part three of our series on water in the high desert. Part one covered wells dry ing up. Part two covered water for farming and irriga tion. Now, part three takes a look at residential and commercial water use in Bend and Redmond—though this part of the story is far from over. We are in the midst of a lawsuit over access to public records to tell the com plete story. We, as journalists, believe private companies that act in the same capacity as public utilities have an obligation to fulfill public records requests, which you can learn more about in this week’s feature. When that legal battle is resolved, we hope to be able to bring you even more on that story.

WOPINION
e’ve all heard the stats here in our own community: Bend is one of the most popular places for remote workers to come and live and reap the benefits of the lifestyle while also, often, earning the higher salaries offered in places like the Bay Area of San Francisco. While that’s meant an attractive lifestyle for those who are able to do it, Bend’s “Zoomtown” sta tus has also had its drawbacks—name ly, the rise in home values and the pricing-out of locals who continue to earn local salaries. Now, though, some recent report ing has revealed another drawback of remote work, and makes us wonder where the true cost of remote work is heading. Last week, Willamette Week reported about the number of employ ees working for the State of Oregon who are now living in other parts of the country while retaining their Oregon jobs and Oregon salaries, all while not being required to pay Oregon income taxes. That’s somewhat concerning— but there’s more. Not only does the state allow workers to live anywhere, but they’re also getting the state to foot the bill when they travel back to Ore gon for work. The Chief Financial Officer for the Oregon Lottery now lives in Texas, while the Chief Human Resources Offi cer for the Oregon Lottery now lives in Florida. The costs of travel back to Ore gon, since their moves in 2021, have cost the state around $2,000 each thus far, according to Willamette Week. Around 500 state employees in total are now taking advantage of a 2021 state policy that allows them to work remotely. While the obvious drawbacks of a remote worker culture include height ened home values and density in “attractive” areas and decline in less-at tractive areas, it does make sense, in a work culture where workers are hard to find, for the state to open up its worker pool through remote work. State agen cies have said this policy allows them to remain competitive in the workforce. Still, it is unfair for these workers who opt not to live in a state where they work to be compensated for this choice, and for taxpayers in the state (where those remote workers are now avoiding the income taxes that keep the government running) to foot the bill. While some employers do offer things like bus passes to employees, it is uncommon to get your employer to pay for your local commute, let alone your commute across the country all because you decide to live in a red state. This needs to change. When state lawmaker, Sen. Tim Knopp (R-Bend), heard about this, he vowed to introduce legislation that would bar the state from compensating these employees for their travel. This is the right thing to do, and the least of the moves the state should make to correct this. Some are also calling for a policy that requires employees who work for the state to actually live in the state. We are in the midst of a societal shift in which people are more able than ever to live where they want to live while also having more flexibility in their work sites. Some of those chang es are already resulting in effects such as income inequality and lack of hous ing for lower-income people, as we are seeing here in Central Oregon. This “self-sorting” is bound to have politi cal and social effects we have not even been able to conceive of yet. In the case of employee travel, how ever, Oregon should act fast to set poli cies that are fair and equitable and that don’t offer special favors for those who decide not to live here.

Bend Parks and Rec should be con gratulated for Alpenglow Park. The fin ished product sets the benchmark for local parks. Unfortunately, the park has not been cleared of foxtails and cheat grass. These dangerous weeds are every where including inside the dog parks, and barbs cover the walkways. I have personally witnessed the damage these weeds can cause as in the past one of my dogs inhaled a barb and suffered a col lapsed lung. Another dog required sur gery on his leg to remove a barb that had worked its way up his leg. Recently Bend Parks had a crew of workers at the park for cleanup on two occasions. These weeds were obviously not on their list for removal as they are still present. Perhaps Bend Parks can have a cleanup day and ask for dog owners to help their crews rid the park of this danger.

Letters of stupid to deny what is becoming increasingly so obvious. The 55 MPH speed limit was enact ed by President Richard Nixon on Jan uary 2, 1974, was that smart or stupid? Driving at 80 mph reduces fuel economy by 28%. Sixty percent of the fuel burned is used to overcome the poor aerody namics on those monstrous pickups. I have asked the poor souls that pump fuel if people who drive large vehi cles seem upset about fuel prices, and I got a resounding “yes.” Did the people who bought and drive these rigs really believe fuel prices would go down, not up? It would be nonsense to believe that or maybe even stupid to believe that. Go ahead fact check it, then look around at all of the outsized pickups, SUVs and other less-than-economical forms of transportation and recreation al vehicles. Not only do we waste fuel and money with our appetite and need for speed, but human life in the form of traffic fatalities and serious injuries. Who in their right mind would follow closer than three car lengths at 65+ or even 85+ MPH, by my observation quite a number of people. How about texting at any speed? So the first of Cippola’s laws states, everyone underestimates the number of stupid people, no offense intended? I think it’s high time we wised up. I know I still do stupid things myself and I am still trying to recover from my level of stupidity, how about you?

PET OWNERS BEWARE
NW Natural denies that it acts any less transpar ently than a public utility, and points to the regulatory oversite it has to adhere to under state laws.
About 95% of Oregon’s municipal water systems are government run, and Avion Water Systems in Bend is the state’s largest privately owned public utility, with about 15,000 customer connections. Avion is regulated by the Oregon Public Utility Commission, a regulator that sets rates and establishes rules of operations for investor-owned utility companies.
NW Natural delivers gas to over 600,000 residential customers in Oregon, which is about 80% of all natural gas deliveries in the state. NW Natural got into the water utility business on December 21, 2017, when it acquired Salmon Valley based out of Welches, Oregon, and Falls Water in Idaho Falls, Idaho. The two privately owned public utilities had about 5,600 combined customers, and have since expanded across the Pacific Northwest, Arizona and Texas.
A map of the United States showing which states rely most on privately owned water utilities.
NW Natural said the aspects of business it excels at, such as managing distribution infrastructure, cus tomer service, working in a highly regulated market and environmental stewardship, are applicable to the water utility sector it entered. Anderson also noted that the 2017 purchase is part of a long-term plan to diversify its services. NW Natural believed Oregon’s smaller water utilities could benefit from the resourc es it could bring as a large company. “The water sec tor is extremely fragmented, and many water systems suffer from lack of scale and a limited ability to invest in infrastructure. We knew we could bring that invest ment capacity, as well,” said David Roy, spokesperson for NW Natural. “We can provide operational capaci ty. Some small utilities are operated by one person or a handful of people, and it's difficult for them to have the same level of operational expertise, training on water quality, water efficiency, and safety.”
“If they were buying public utilities, we’d view it dif ferently,” Bob Jenks, Oregon’s CUB executive director, told Streetroots in 2018. The watchdog butted heads with NW Natural in March over a proposed 12% rate hike for natural gas services, less than a year after the Oregon Public Utili ty Commission approved a 13% rate increase. The 12% increase would contribute to $11 million in executive and employee bonuses, increase shareholder profits by $1.1 million and fund a 30% increase in NW Natural’s advertising budget, according to Oregon CUB.
“Almost all private water companies did not reply to requests for information about their number of shut offs. Of the 11 privately owned water utilities surveyed, only 1 (Suez Idaho) responded — representing a 9 per cent response rate. In comparison, the response rate among public sector providers was 93 percent,” Food and Water Watch wrote in a study called America’s Secret Water Crisis.
“The water utility sector is an excellent strategic fit for our company,” stated David H. Anderson, president and chief executive officer of NW Natural in a press release after the acquisition.
When the Source Weekly requested records of the top residential water users in Central Oregon, Avion sued to keep its largest water users confidential. That was after Deschutes District Attorney John Hummel ordered Avion to fulfill the request. Both Bend and Redmond’s water departments complied with the records request in a timely manner. The Source Week ly is now represented by the Reporter’s Committee for the Freedom of the Press in regard to Avion’s suit.
VOICEINDEPENDENTBEND’S/202225,AUGUST/WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM 6 PrivateNEWS Company, Public Utility
“Both our gas business and NW Natural Water are very transparent as regulated utilities. Regulatory oversight includes the rate-setting process overseen by the Oregon Public Utilities Commission,” Roy said. “NW Natural as a publicly traded company is also sub ject to SEC filings and other mechanisms that require transparency.”
CUB also voiced concern over NW Natural, Avis ta and Cascade Natural Gas suing the state to avoid reducing greenhouse gas emissions as outlined in Ore gon’s Department of Environmental Quality’s Climate Protection Program — which is designed to reduce emissions by 50% by 2035 and 90% by 2050.
Oregon’s Citizens Utility Board, a watchdog group monitoring utility rates in Oregon, told Streetroots it wasn’t too concerned with NW Natural buying up pri vate water utilities.
It’s not NW Natural’s first purchase in Central Ore gon. In 2019 the Public Utility Commission approved its acquisition of Sunriver Water LLC, a company that provides water and wastewater utilities to 9,400 con nections. Another private utility company, SouthWest Water Company out of California, also invested in Central Oregon when it purchased Cline Butte Water, the water utility serving Eagle Crest Resort. Food and Water Watch, a nonprofit advocating for safe food, clean water and climate protection, found privately owned water systems charged 59% more than publicly-owned systems in a 2016 study. A year before it raised alarm over the lack of transparency in private ly-owned water utilities.
“Gas utilities talk a good game about their commit ment to reducing carbon emissions. But they contin ue to invest millions in expanding their pipelines and increasing their emissions every year,” Jenks said in a press release on March 24. “This suit demonstrates the wide gulf between their rhetoric and their reality.”
By Jack Harvel L
ast December Northwest Natural Water Compa ny, a subsidiary of the state’s oldest gas company, Northwest Natural, acquired an ownership stake in Avion Water, the state’s largest private public utility.
“Given rapid population growth in Bend and Cen tral Oregon, there is going to be a need for significant investments in water system infrastructure,” Roy said. “We have a strategic investment in Avion and we are helping to fund growth-related infrastructure invest ment so that Avion can meet the needs of its custom ers in the region.”

Avion accounts for about half of Oregon’s regulated private water customers, which in total includes about 32,000 customers. When NW Natural purchased Avi on in December, it said the sale would support Avion’s growth. Avion is set to provide water to a good portion of new developments in Bend.

Teens Killed in Bend Remembered as “Inseparable” Bend Police arrest Bend man in the deaths of two 18-year-olds
Memorial Planned for Bend Firefighter and Twin Brother Service to take place at Hayden Homes Amphitheater
By Nicole Vulcan
Bend Fire and Rescue will hold a memorial this weekend for a pair of twin brothers who died in a plane crash— one who was a Bend firefighter. Brothers Mark Harro and Daniel Harro were flying together during a backcoun try camping trip near Yellow Pine, Idaho, on Aug. 15 when their plane went down. The two brothers both died in the crash. Also in the plane was Daniel’s dog Cinder, who sur vived the crash. The cause of the crash is still undeter mined, according to Bend Fire & Rescue. Daniel, who was an engineer for Bend Fire & Rescue, is survived by his wife, Elisif, and Mark Harro is survived by his wife Kelly, and both brothers are also survived by their parents John and Denise Harro and sister Laura. “This is a devastating loss for our family,” Bend Fire Chief Todd Riley said in a press release. “Daniel was wellloved and well-respected by everyone who worked with him. We will miss his presence every day.” Daniel Harro worked for the Scappoose Fire Department before begin ning work in Bend in 2014 as a firefighter and paramedic. Mark Harro was an artist, described in a GoFundMe profile as “exceptionally creative, evidenced in his ceramics, draw ings, paintings and costumes.”
GoFundMe accounts have been set up for each of the brothers’ wives to help with expenses. They are bothmark-harro.at: gofundme.com/f/daniel-harro and gofundme.com/f/availableFuneralservicesarealsoplannedthisweekforDanielandMarkHarro.

ABend man is in custody following the deaths of two 18-year-olds. Bend Police arrested 41-year-old Wesley Brady on Aug. 17, after cops say he killed Angela Pastorino and Alfredo Hernandez earlier in the week. Police say the two victims and Brady were all working for a homeowner on Mount Faith Place in Bend. After working in the home Aug. 16, cops say the teens and Brady were drinking together when the two men—Brady and Hernandez—got into a fight that resulted in Brady killing both teens. Police say Brady then left Pastorino and Hernandez in the garage of the home and took off for a property in Christmas Valley. When the homeowner came home on Aug. 17, they found one of the teens in the garage and called the police. During the investigation, cops discovered Brady in the area around the house and arrested him. Brady remains in custody at the Deschutes County Jail and is being held without bail. Police arrested him on multiple charges, including murder, sodomy, sex abuse, abuse of corpse, tampering with evidence and strangulation. Brady has been accused of arson and animal abuse in recent years and had a history of mental health challenges, according to reporting from The Bulletin. A GoFundMe set up for the families of the victims described Hernandez and Pastorino, both who attended school in the Bend area, as “inseparable. They were bright, loving teens with family and friends who adored them. Angela loved people almost as much as she loved dogs. Alfredo was known as a sweet, soft-spoken young man who was the first to volunteer to help with any task.”

Meanwhile, farmers continue to suffer and worry they won’t make it through the season. A lot of this comes down to Oregon’s water law system, which experts across the region have deemed “archaic.” But making institutional change is a slow process. Limiting municipal water use won’t do much for the dire situ ations farmers face, but it could help build “a culture of conservation” and eventually lead to more struc tural change, according to Tod Heisler, a longtime Deschutes River advocate.
River’s Edge Golf Course used nearly twice as much water as St. Charles in Bend. The golf course — located off Mt. Washington Drive — used nearly 82 million gallons, compared to St. Charles’ 43 million. Even at 82 million, River’s Edge only used about half of the water it’s allowed to divert out of the Deschutes River, according to the Central Oregon Irrigation District, which serves the golf course its water. The region’s golf courses and resorts largely use ground water through their own water rights, making it diffi cult to determine how much water they used. River’s Edge is one of the only golf courses required to report its consumption, since it diverts water from the river.
How to reduce your water use:
• Buy Energy-Star certified appliances, which can save you water and money.
Water at Home
In the U.S., households use 29 billion gallons of water daily. Most of that water often goes to lawns and other outdoor uses, yet 50% of that water is wasted, in part, due to overwatering. This comes as signs of climate change and intensi fying drought are striking in every corner of the West. The Colorado River is reaching record lows, threaten ing the water source for 40 million people. The Great Salt Lake is drying up, leaving ecosystems endangered and creating a bowl of toxic dust around the neighbor ingAcrosscity. the West, we’re seeing an increased sense of urgency to conserve water. In Central Oregon, for instance, community members are rallying against lux ury resorts like Thornburgh, which was originally per mitted to use nearly 700 million gallons of water a year.
Most of Bend and Redmond’s largest commer cial users are schools and hospitals — but brew eries, labs and one car wash also made the list. Schools use water to irrigate lawns and athletic fields, and their usage largely correlates with the size of their green space. For St. Charles, Bend’s largest user at 43 million gallons a year, water is critical for patient care, according to the hospital’s spokesperson. Next up is Deschutes Brewery, which used 34 million gallons, since water is the main ingredient in beer. 10 Barrel and Humm Kombucha also rank in the top commercial users. Manufacturing hubs like Lonza and SiCamore Semi follow. And don’t forget Redmond’s Surf Thru Express Car Wash and Walmart Supercenter, which used 7.5 and 7.3 million gallons of water, respectively.
(The developer, Kameron DeLashmutt, said the resort is working to make “substantial reductions” to its use, though it’s unclear what these reductions will be.)
Why does it matter?
Across the acres of land surrounding Redmond and Tumalo, residential wells are drying up at alarm ing rates. Travel north to the Madras region, and farmers are letting their land go fallow amid a shrink ing water supply. But zoom in within city limits in Central Oregon, and residents aren’t facing the same constraints. With the worst megadrought the west has seen in at least 1,200 years, the City of Bend and Redmond are urging residents to conserve water, but doing so is voluntary, and not everyone is reducing their use. So, the Source Weekly set out to track where our water is going. We know that about 95% of water in the Upper Deschutes River Basin goes to irrigation, and — with inconsistent metering and canal water seeping into the ground — it’s nearly impossible to determine exactly who’s using all that water. Instead, we looked toward the remaining 5%, or municipal use, since it’s something we can track.
The Source Weekly requested public records about the largest residential and commercial users in Bend and Redmond. While this picture is still incomplete, it reveals important info about municipal water usage. We aim to shed light on disparate realities in Central Oregon: while some farmers are struggling to make it through the season amid severe drought, some residents are using over 1 million gallons of water a year for lawns.
• Update your sprinkler system, making sure you’re watering the lawn, not the sidewalk and driveway. Bend Water customers can request a free sprinkler inspection through September.
202225,AUGUST/34ISSUE26VOLUME/THESOURCEWEEKLY 11
• Use xeriscaping or a water-wise landscaping plan.
Bend’s top residential customers use more water than Redmond’s. The City of Bend had five customers using over one million gallons of water in 2021. Red mond only had one. Interestingly, Bend’s top users do pay about twice as much as Redmond’s top users.
A snapshot of Bend and Redmond’s top water users in 2021
Most of the City of Bend's largest residential water users live on Awbrey Butte and the west side of town. Eight of the 15 top Bend Water users live on Awbrey Butte. One lives next to Mirror Pond. Another lives in Tetherow. The only top user east of Highway 97 lives near Pine Nursery Park. Google Maps shows that many of these properties have large green lawns.
***The Bend Parks & Recreation District didn’t make this list because it has multiple water providers, and the city only serves water to some of the smaller parks in town. According to Buettner, if looked at in aggregate, the parks would likely be in the city’s top five water users.
• Water outdoor areas in the early morning or evenings to beat daytime evaporation.
In 2021, Bend Waters’s top residential customer used 10 times as much water as the city’s average residential customer. The top customer used 1,176,259 gallons of water. That’s enough to fill more than 32 football fields. Meanwhile, the average Bend Water cus tomer used 114,456 gallons — or three football fields.
***It’s important to note that this is an incomplete picture, as Avion serves a lot of the larger properties on the east side of town, which could have made this list.
“We want to start with the people who will accept some of this change and ownership,” Heisler said, “and then start working outward to everybody else.”
MICHAEL BUETTNER, BEND UTILITY DIRECTOR
Big Takeaways
• If you’re a Bend Water customer, sign up for WaterSmart, where you can track your water use and sign up for leak alerts.
According to Michael Buettner, Bend’s utility director, this is likely because Bend’s water system is more com plex and costlier to maintain than Redmond’s.

Buettner, the Bend utility director, told the Source. “We obviously can’t make other people share their data. But we’re curious (about Avion’s data) as well.” Avion did not respond to requests to comment. Without information about nearly a fifth of Bend’s population, we deemed it unfair to publish the names and exact addresses of top users, as we’d originally planned. (We were also unable to determine to what extent leaks factored into water use.) Our approach to this story was similar to what other newspapers, including Willamette Week in Portland, have done when they gain public records and then publish the names and addresses of the top water users in their areas. If we obtain records from Avion, we plan to pub lish names and addresses of the top users. Instead, we offer readers a map of where some of the largest water users live, how much water they used in 2021 and how much they spent. We put this side-by-side with commercial data, in order to start to fill in that water use picture. We also gained some information about golf courses like River’s Edge from irrigation districts. This story is by no means compre hensive and doesn’t touch on specific developments, resorts and cities like Sisters and Prineville, but it’s a start at offering a snapshot of where our water is going.

The Source Weekly received records from the cityrun utilities, Bend and Redmond Water, but we soon hit a snag when Avion denied our requests, arguing that since it is a private company, it isn’t subject to public record law.
H.
O.
Even though the company operates through a fran chise agreement with the city of Bend, city officials are in the dark about how much water Avion customers areAndusing. with the city growing largely in the parts Avion serves, public records from the city offer us a limited view of water consumption. Bend Water officials told the Source that, as the city’s population doubled over the last two decades, water consumption stayed largely the same thanks to metering and greater conservation measures. And, on Aug. 3, the public utility told the city council that — as of July 31 — water consumption was down this year, compared to previous years. But, none of this factors in data about the large swaths of town that Avion serves.

Roats Water System also serves Bend customers, but the Source didn’t seek records from the company since it serves a small percentage of the city’s population.
The Source Weekly appealed this decision to Deschutes District Attorney John Hum mel, since water itself is public in Oregon, and Hum mel decided that Avion is the “functional equivalent” of a public body, and thus subject to public records law. He added in his May 26 decision, “We’re in the West, we’re in a drought, and this request relates to waterAvionusage.”had two choices: it could either provide the records or take the Source Weekly to court. The com pany chose the latter, and — with litigation ongoing — we’re unlikely to see those records for months. The Source isn’t alone in this kind of lawsuit: after the Ore gonian tried to get water use data about the Google data center in The Dalles, the city decided to sue to keep the records private. In Central Oregon, we were left with an incom plete picture of residential water usage, since Avion serves roughly 15% of Bend, including the fast-grow ing developments on the north and east sides of town.

SW: Is there a specific song or experience you’re most proud of looking back while the band was putting together the “Dark Star EP?”
SW: For people who haven’t heard Nyx Division before, how would you describe your sound?
By Isaac Biehl
Learn more about them in our Q&A with Monët below.
DM: When Alex, the bassist, originally reached out to me to do vocals, he half-jokingly described the band as sounding like “The Twisted Sisters of Mercy,” mean ing that it was like a mix between Twisted Sister and Sisters of Mercy. For those that are familiar with those bands, I’d say that mash-up example still remains pret ty solid. For those that prefer a more adjective-based approach, I would say that we’re doing our best to har ness the energy and catchy pop sensibility of classic rock and ‘80s hair metal without sacrificing the reverb and chorus heavy influence of ‘80s new wave and goth music.

SW: Can we expect more Nyx Division music or vid eos this year?
DM: We are so excited to play! This’ll be our first time ever playing Central Oregon. Speaking solely for myself, I’ve got family here so it’s always nice to have them at the shows, especially my mom. She’s a very tal ented singer and piano player (Adagio Lessons in Red mond). Her musical influence on me absolutely shines through in the way I approach music. The whole band loves traveling, going to new places, and having new experiences so everything about coming to Redmond this Saturday is exciting for us.

DM: It’s hard to choose just one song or experience. They’re all distinct and valued in their own right. One of the things that’s been the most rewarding thus far has been being able to do some fundraising through live performances. Our first show we ever played was a benefit for the preservation of Indigenous languag es in the Pacific Northwest. That was one hell of a way to come back to the stage. We hope to continue doing things along those lines when we’re able to.
Source Weekly: You all have worked in other bands and projects before separately. What was the driving force for Nyx Division to come together and how did that happen? Domîno Monët: Interestingly enough, it was the pandemic that ended up bringing us together. Collec tively, we were living in Oregon, Texas and Califor nia pre-pandemic. We all ended up in Portland once the lockdown was officially in motion. From there, the band came together pretty organically. We had all known each other in some capacity prior to the band forming, whether that be through playing shows together pre-pandemic or listening to each other’s oth er music projects, [we] had a pre-existing respect for one another as musicians. We were lucky enough to get along great right off the bat.
Nyx Division is a Portland Gem Get familiar with the goth rock stylings of this four-piece before it hits the High Desert Music Hall
DM: Absolutely! If not in 2022, then most certainly in early 2023. We’re currently writing a new album and are really excited to be able to share those tracks soon. As of now, we’re playing tracks that will appear on the new album during live shows only. So if you want a taste of what’s to come, make sure to catch us live!
fter joining forces in Portland during the pandem ic, post-punk four-piece Nyx Division released its first EP this past March. Draped in reverb, driving tempos and haunting vocals over six songs, the “Dark Star EP” is an incredible sampler that highlights Nyx Division’s playfulness and power as rising champions of goth and glam rock in Portland.
“The reception has been overwhelmingly positive, which has been really encouraging given everything that musicians went through during the lockdown,” says vocalist Domîno Monët. “The scene in Portland has been really excited to have live performances to go to again, so I think creating and playing here has been a really excellent, reciprocal phenomenon as of late.” Nyx Division also features the talents of Cole Tucker (guitar), Alex Rivas (bass) and Mason Wilky (drums). The band is heading to Redmond this Satur day night for a show at the High Desert Music Hall.

Local comedian Jake Woodmansee is primed to perform three days in a row with comedy sets at Open Space Event Studios this weekend. Woodmansee has performed comedy for over 20 years, and will return to a familiar stage at Open Space, where he did theater performances there when it was still Second Street Theater. Each night has a different theme and the sets will all be filmed for the comedian’s upcoming special. Be prepared to potentially see yourself on the screen in the future, especially if attending all three nights!
Night 3: A Knight of Comedy
FRIDAY, September 30th 5pm-10pm SATURDAY, October 1st 11am-10pm SUNDAY, October 2nd 11am-5pm
Celebrate the Autumn season with crafts, art, music, and more! Presented
This isn’t a regular improv show. Agro Hippies takes the musical talents of Ste ven Whitney and the quick wit built through decades of stage experience from Woodmansee to deliver a show that can only be experienced live for its true essence. The audience will toss out suggestions and Woodmansee must create a performance from these, paired with music he hasn’t heard before. If he’s unable to make up an act he owes the suggester a drink.
Gung Ho for Jake the Human Strap in: Local comedian Jake Woodmansee performs three unique comedy sets the weekend
All right, no more shenanigans. Well, maybe some. Woodmansee concludes the weekend with a traditional comedy set, but with the antics of Woodmansee, who knows what that will bring. Throughout the weekend Tylor Jones will perform, with a bunch of friends and guests getting on stage, too. Audiences will need to sign a consent form for film ing purposes. Each night is $20 admission, with a weekend pass being $50 which can be shared among friends.
Night 1: Story Time Everyone has that friend who can capture a dinner party’s attention with their stories and keep the entertainment going all night. Jake is that human, and he will captivate the live audience with this set of completely true stories.

The fact that one of Bend’s four brick’n’mortar doughnut shops only makes them intermittently—tsk tsk, The Dough Nut—makes me realize that such a bakery with out old-fashioneds would be like a brewery without an old-school classic pale ale. Given that I’ve awakened to the simple, ecumenical beauty of old-fashioneds, we had one last step in determining the best in Bend. We collected both the quintessential glazed version as well as chocolate-frosted, and even a few others such as cinnamon-sugar, maple-iced and true O.G. plain (like an unglazed cake doughnut, these are only intended for dunking in coffee or hot cocoa), but since not everyone makes all of the above, only glazed and chocolate competed. Here are the results.
By Brian Yaeger CHOW When beseeched to write the consummate list of the world’s best doughnut styles for TheTakeOut.com, The Onion’s non-satirical foodie blog, I unintentionally struck a nerve. I awarded buttermilk bars the bronze, but described them as “the augmented version of an old-fashioned…ameliorated by the use of buttermilk in the cake batter in lieu of regular milk (there’s a reason pancakes are made with buttermilk!).”
Sisters Bakery This bakery scores so well in these quarterly roundups it’s almost unfair to have it compete with the Bend shops. But a funny thing happened on the way to Sisters or, rather, once their mor sels were retrieved from there. The glazed version indeed topped the podi um achieving an average of 8.7 out of 10. One judge raved about its texture. Another went ethereal and applauded its “dimension” as if it came from anoth er one. One young fan simply dubbed it, “the best of the best.” So imagine our shock when we collectively ranked the chocolate one the cellar-dweller for tast ing like a day-old chocolate-iced cake doughnut that had neither the appear ance, texture, nor most importantly, taste, to call itself an old-fashioned. $3 251 E Cascade Ave, Sisters, 541-549-0361

Delish Donuts Here’s the thing about Delish’s old-fashioneds. The standard glazed one was “fine” as a dunker, but ultimately most judges dinged it for being exceed ingly “dry.” But the head-scratcher was that the chocolate version saw the already-glazed version get lightly dipped in chocolate. It cost 20 cents extra, but featured scarcely more than a trace of the second layer of sugar. While some judges appreciated the light touch (con sidering we’ve determined that choc olate frosting doesn’t work as well on an old-fashioned), the most generous judge commented, “The double-glazed situation was a distraction.” $1.55/$1.75 3188 N Hwy 97, Ste. 104, 541-647-2337
The chocolate version received raves for the thorough layer of cocoa when others were wildly uneven. Bonus: These are the cheapest in town. $1.15. 61419 S Hwy 97, 541-385-3310
In a list that was otherwise unassailable and irrefutable, people had some thoughts on omitting old-fashioneds. I get it. When presented perfectly, the glazed craggy ring is one of the most perfect doughnuts. So along with a growing cadre of judges in these quarterly round-ups—from almost-middle-school aged to almost-mid-life—we set out to discover who makes the best, local old-fashioned.
Bend’s Best Old-Fashioned Doughnuts
In an era of new Instagram delights, can anything beat an old-fashioned?
Sweetheart Donuts What a chocoholic like myself finds amazing is that, across the board, the vanilla glazed old-fashioneds ranked higher than their chocolatey siblings. That’s bonkers, but Sweetheart had the second-biggest disparity between the two, though the regular scored high enough to earn silver in this roundup. One judge proclaimed it had “just the right amount of everything: perfectly moist inside, crunchy outside and bal anced sugar.” Another remarked, “A true delight.” Meanwhile, the chocolate one made one judge swear off choco late-frosted doughnuts altogether $2. 210 SE 3rd St, 541-323-3788
Richard’s Donuts & Pastries Despite not placing at the top of the list or even second, Richard’s ranks first because the glazed old-fashioned scored the third highest while the chocolate came in fourth. The glazed struck all the right chords with its perfect crispy out er shell and “cakey,” “fluffy” center. One taster said through his drool: “It had all the right crunch in all the right places.”

COMAG show Fri., Aug. 26-Sun., Aug 28 Oxford Hotel Ballroom 10 Minnesota Ave, Bend. Metal artist Anton Yakushev stands with his creation, Winnie, shown in progress at right and comtemplating existence, below.
“It started out as a group of jewelers getting together over beers and sharing techniques and grievances,” says Alb itz. “It was more of a social club than an artist guild. As it grew, we added black smiths and sculptors and became a Met al Arts Guild...more than just jewelers.” I asked Albitz why metal appealed to him the most. His answer was lovely, and“Metal,voluminous.mayit be gold, silver, copper or steel,” Albitz said. “The permanence of your creation, the way it takes to pol ishing to a high-shine finish or a heavi ly textured finish, then you can change the color to the highlights with patinas. The many processes that can be used to achieve what you have imagined or precisely designed; direct fabrication, where you form by hammers, saws, grav ers and burnishers is my favorite way to workHismetal.”process continues to evolve just as he evolves as an artist. “My current designs are a multiple-step process where I force an ingot of gold or silver through a power mill until it begins to deconstruct, then letting the crumbling, cracked metal show me the focal point of the piece I’m making,” he said. “Then adding multiple layers of 22k gold, build ing up a crust, and then deciding how best to embellish the metal with gems and diamonds. Most jewelers approach from the opposite direction: choos ing the stone and designing the metal around them.” One of the highlights of this year’s show is “Winnie,” an eight-foot-tall giraffe, completely hand forged and cre ated directly in the steel by artist Anton Yakushev. I can’t wait to see Winnie in person, because the photos instant ly put a smile on my face. Yakushev (much in the same way as Albitz) has metalwork in his blood. “I realized that metal shaped my thoughts and I was destined to transform them into reality when I started working as a blacksmith,” explains Yakushev. “During my years studying art at the university, I began to experiment with different processes in metal. My curiosity of the material and all the ways I could transform it led me to invent my own techniques and creative approaches to this cultural medium.” Yakushev doesn’t have a “one-sizefits-all” approach to his creations, though. “The only artistic devices I engage throughout my work are exper imentation and improvisation,” he says. “I am not fixed by any intention al, precise or stylistic process. So much depends on the artistic idea. The only technique and material that I perma nently dedicate myself to is that all my sculptures are hand forged only and fromEachsteel.”artist, whether a writer or a painter or a member of the Central Oregon Metal Arts Guild, has their own reasons for creation. For some, it’s therapy, for others a compulsion to make the thing they see or feel inside become a part of the physical world. When I asked Yakushev what he hoped his art inspired in others, he gave me an answer that I think doesn’t just describe his own process of creation, but some thing that touches on the reasons why all artists instinctively have to create: “I love to create independent and isolated worlds for my heroes that are dreams, cloud land cities and otherworld reali ties where nothing is impossible. Aside from other themes and styles that may be engaged, the thing that truly holds all my art series together is my enduring love and humanism. This is what drives me to create.”

MACK & RITA: A frustrated 30-year-old influ encer goes on a bachelorette trip and magically transforms into Diane Keaton.

THREE THOUSAND YEARS OF LONGING: The new film by George Miller, the genius behind “Mad Max: Fury Road” and “Babe: Pig in the City,” stars Tilda Swinton and Idris Elba and is focused on a lonely woman who discovers a Djinn in a lamp who offers her three wishes for his freedom.

THOR: LOVE AND THUNDER: Writer/direc tor 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
FILM SHORTS
BEAST: Idris Elba vs. a lion. If there’s more 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 gen eration. 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, Odem Theater Pub
BREAKING: John Boyega turns in an intense performance as a desperate Marine Corps veteran who holds a bank full of people hostage with a actors. Come spend 81-minutes with them as they fish, stare at the stars and navigate love across the American West. Sisters Movie House
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 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, Odem Theater Pub
By Jared Rasic Your friendly local film reviewer’s takes on what’s out there in the world of movies.
MINIONS: THE RISE OF GRU: I definitely wish this looked more like a sequel to the surprisingly great “Minions” and less like a prequel to “Despicable Me,” but who am I kidding, I’ll see this either way. I love me some Twinkie-shaped, gibberish-speak ing weirdos. Regal Old Mill, Odem Theater Pub, McMenamins NOPE: One of my most anticipated movies of 2022 is finally here: Jordan Peele’s third feature as a director, “Nope.” 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. Regal Old Mill
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

“Jerry and Marge Go Large:” It doesn’t feel like Bryan Cranston has really locked into his next big performance post-“Breaking Bad” yet, but this is a warm and fuzzy place to start. Cranston and Annette Bening play a retired couple who figure out a loophole in the lottery and use it to breathe life back into the small town they call home. I’m a sucker for movies that focus on community and human connection, so even in the moments that the film slipped into cliche, I was still mostly charmed.

“Jerry and Marge Go Large” Dir. David ParamountGrade:FrankelC++
“Umma:” And why not wrap up my tour of the streamers with a horror flick starring Sandra Oh and produced by the great Sam Raimi? “Umma” follows Oh as a single mother and Korean immigrant, homeschooling her daughter on a rural farm, who is being haunted by the vengeful spirit of her abusive mother. The pedi gree is solid, but instead of being a chilling slow-burn horror flick along the lines of “Hereditary,” it never rises above the cliched metaphors it’s trafficking in. A Kore an/American thriller focused on generational trauma and inherited scars is a bril liant idea, but this isn’t the way to execute those themes. A sad missed opportunity. “Umma”
“The Outfit:” This played in theaters for like five minutes and I missed it com pletely, which is a shame since this is a half-classy/half-goofy chamber thriller set in a tailor shop in 1950s Chicago. The great Mark Rylance plays an English “cutter” who deals with gangsters, femme fatales and bloodshed over one very long night when all he wants to do is craft really gorgeous bespoke suits. “The Outfit” could easily be turned into a play, as it’s set completely in one location and deals with a small cast of characters all of whom have a secret. An absolute blast that progres sively gets sillier and more fun as it goes.
“Secret Headquarters:” I figured I should make this article balanced and watch a family movie starring Owen Wilson that looked like an updated version of “Spy Kids,” but I was wrong and made a terrible mistake. This is bland, boring and I don’t wanna talk about it anymore.
“On the Count of Three:” Jerrod Carmichael is having a very good year. His stand-up special, “Rothaniel,” is by far the best live comedy performance of 2022 (by far) and his directorial debut, “On the Count of Three,” is an unforgettable pitch-black comedy that forces its audience to choose between laughing hysterical ly or feeling deeply uncomfortable…sometimes in the same scene. Two best friends (Carmichael and the rapidly rising movie star Christopher Abbott) make a pact to kill themselves after one last day of checking things off of their bucket lists. This is a movie I will revisit many more times, as it’s one of the most incisive looks at trauma, depression and mental illness I’ve seen in years. Carmichael is an astounding talent.

Dir. Iris K. Shim Grade:NetflixD+
By Jared Rasic SCREEN Most studios nowadays have a deal set up with a streaming service to launch their new releases either the day and date of the theatrical release or within a month of opening night. This simultaneously allows the studios to get more of a return on their investment if it doesn’t do well theatrically, while also allowing word of mouth to spread from the massive number of people who aren’t going to see movies in theaters.
“Secret Headquarters” Dir. Some Dudes Grade: ParamountPurple+
It’s nice to see new movies online sooner than before COVID. But that also means the amount of content showing up on streaming services grows larger daily, leaving some pretty great (and way more terrible) movies to slip by normal human people who don’t get paid to watch movies like I do. So, I gave myself an assignment: Watch 2022 releases from multiple different streamers that snuck past me in theaters or never made it off of a streaming service to begin with. I didn’t hit all the streamers, but I did OK.
A locals’ favorite race series returns for the month of September to its home at The Athletic Club of Bend. Mount Bachelor Sports Education Foundation puts on the annual Thrillacross race series to kickstart Central Oregon’s ‘cross season. Riders will face sprints across the lawn, fast berms, dust pits, hurdles, curb hops and much more while lapping the course for either 30 minutes or 45 minutes. It’s designed to be a celebration for the Bend bike community, with a course that makes it easy for observers to catch the action at multiple observation points. Plus, beer and food abounds. The races start after 5pm Thursday nights so the working Thrillacross starts Sept. 1 and runs every Thursday of the month until Sept. 29. There is a one-week break Sept. 15 so local organizers can focus on the Can Chaser Cross race in Redmond, part of the statewide Harvest Cross race series. The races are mass start style, with juniors and masters divisions starting at 5:15pm. Open and single speed divisions start at 6pm.

By Damian Fagan Moths (known in Spanish as polil las or la mariposa nocturna) are the Rodney Dangerfield of the Lep idopteran world—they “don’t get no respect.” These denizens of the dark flit around our neighborhoods and wood lands under the cover of darkness unbe knownst to most of us. The often dark, “hairy” bodies of moths don’t ignite the interest meter like their cousins, day-fly ing colorful butterflies. In Central Oregon, the pandora moth is probably the most well-known moth due to its large size and seasonal abun dance. Who hasn’t been to a Bend Elks game only to view hundreds of moths as they lift off when a foul ball hits the backstop netting? Both moths and butterflies are in the order Lepidoptera – the name is from Greek words meaning “scaled wings,” which refers to the tiny, shingled-like appearance of their wings under the microscope. Moths tend to be nocturnal (not all) and their antennae are feath ery or bear saw-like edges to better pick up pheromones and floral scents. In the U.S., there are roughly 11,000 species of moths compared to fewer than 1,000 butterflies.Whatrole do moths play in the eco system?“Pollinators and food for other wild life, mainly birds,” said David Droppers, Northwest regional coordinator for But terflies and Moths of North America. “If someone asks me about attracting birds to their yard, I tell them to plant the plants that moths lay their eggs on because caterpillars are high on the list for baby bird food.”
What denizens of the dark roam your backyard at night?

“If you can think of a native tree or shrub, especially ones in the rose fami ly, there are going to be a lot of moths that use it and many moths are host spe cific as pollinators or herbivores,” said Droppers. This is in reference to sphinx moth caterpillars, also known as toma to hornworms, which feed on tomato leaves. “Moths can serve as both pest andThoughfriend.” gardeners might not like the hornworms, the adult sphinx moth resembles a hummingbird as it sips nec tar from night-blooming flowers such as evening primrose. The moth’s wing structure allows them to hover like a hummer, lending to some folks to collo quially call them “hummingbird moths” or “hawkmoths.”Sohowcommon are moths? In a typ ical suburban yard, Dropper estimates someone could locate 30 to 40 species in a night. “I’ve got some folks in D.C. who have over 500 moths on their yard list. Bob Johnson is still trying to calcu late the number of species he’s trapped in his Bend yard but he estimates he “… saw over 275 species last year, which is a heck of a lot of species, considering I’m running a single trap outside my back door, here in the middle of town.” Droppers agrees. “You just spend a few nights watching moths, then say, ‘Wait, wait, this whole show is happening in my backyard?”’ said Droppers. With a little more interest, perhaps moths will get the respect they deserve.
Johnson uploads images to The Field Guide for Lepidoptera site which uses artificial intelligence to “learn” how to identify images, or to Bug Guide. Other sites that accept images are BAMONA andSo,iNaturalist.whattype of plants attract moths?

At least one Bendite has been bitten by the moth bug. “I got interested in moths via a gen eral interest in entomology,” said Bob Johnson. “Merrill Peterson’s semi-new (500+ page) bug book (“Pacific North west Insects”) got me going. Later I stumbled across Carl Barrentine’s You Tube videos on mothing and Moth Week (last week in July), and it seemed sim ple enough to get a black light to see what was going on at night.” Last sum mer Johnson ran a trap every night at his house. “Once I saw all the diversity, and realized that there was this huge vibrant nighttime world that I didn’t know any thing about and that no one else I knew seemed to know anything about, either, I wasJohnsonhooked.”uses a Lumix LX-3 pointand-shoot camera to photograph his captured moths before he releases them.
“It’s like having a neighborhood par ty where you catch up with friends, meet new people and have lots of fun in the process,” is how Deschutes His torical Museum Manager Vanessa Ivy describes The Little Woody, the bar rel-aged beer, cider and whiskey festi val that happens quite literally in the museum’s front yard. What’s better than a festival that brings aged beers, whiskeys and ciders? One that also involves costumes. This year’s Little Woody happens Friday and Saturday, Sept. 2 and 3, bringing back a locals’ favorite tradition of unique bev erages AND an invitation to dress up in gnome-themed gear. The first 75 peo ple who show up in full “gnomy” cos tumes (and not just a hat, slacker) get a special festival goblet. Festival tickets range from a $5 designated driver ticket to a $40 VIP ticket that includes early access, a tasting glass, drink tokens and a t-shirt. A standard package with eight tasting tokens is $25. On top of “tasters” of small-batch beers, ciders and artisan rye whiskeys and bourbons, there’s also live music and food from local vendors, with live music starting at 5pm. Musical selec tions include Americana, pop, country, bluegrass, folk and reggae funk. Close to two dozen breweries are taking part in The Little Woody, including local favorites such as Bend Brewing Company, Deschutes Brew ery, Sunriver Brewing, Boneyard Beer, Silver Moon Brewing, Cascade Lakes Brewing Co., Kobold Brewing, Good Life Brewing Company, Three Creeks Brewing and Wild Ride. Also on tap are Oregon breweries including Buoy Beer and Fort George from Astoria, pFriem from Hood River, Hopworks from Port land, Alesong from Eugene, Block 15 from Corvallis, Rogue from Newport and Finnriver Farm & Cidery from the Olympic Peninsula of Washington. New this year are “whiskey sampling” sessions in the whiskey tent both Fri day and Saturday nights. Also new this year: A partnership with the Bend Beer Run, which allows runners doing the 21+ 5k to make one of their “beer stops” inside The Little Woody.TheLittle Woody donates a portion of its proceeds to the Deschutes Histor ical“OurMuseum.volunteers and staff look for ward, each year, to sharing the local history with participants and remind everyone that they are welcome to explore the halls and galleries during the event,” said Ivy of the museum.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): In his poem “Au guries of Innocence,” William Blake (1757–1827) championed the ability “to see a World in a Grain of Sand. And a Heaven in a Wild Flower. Hold In finity in the palm of your hand.” According to my reading of the astrological omens, Taurus, you are primed to do just that in the coming days. You have the power to discern the sacred in the midst of mundane events. The magic and mystery of life will shine from every little thing you encounter. So I will love it if you deliver the following message to a person you care for: “Now I see that the beauty I had not been able to find in the world is in you.”
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): A blogger who calls herself HellFresh writes, “Open and raw communication with your partners and allies may be uncomfortable and feel awkward and vulnera ble, but it solves so many problems that can’t be solved any other way.” Having spent years study ing the demanding arts of intimate relationship, I agree with her. She adds, “The idea that was sold to us is ‘love is effortless and you should com municate telepathically with your partner.’ That’s false.” I propose, Pisces, that you fortify yourself with these truths as you en ter the Reinvent Your Rela tionships Phase of your as trological cycle.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): “Now that I’m free to be myself, who am I?” Virgo-born Mary Oliver asks that question to start one of her poems. She spends the rest of the poem speculating on possi ble answers. At the end, she concludes she mostly longs to be an “empty, waiting, pure, speechless receptacle.” Such a state of being might work well for a poet with lots of time on her hands, but I don’t recommend it for you in the coming weeks. Instead, I hope you’ll be profuse, active, busy, ex perimental, and expressive. That’s the best way to celebrate the fact that you are now freer to be yourself than you have been in a while.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Blogger Scott Williams writes, “There are two kinds of magic. One comes from the heroic leap, the upward surge of energy, the explosive arc that burns bright across the sky. The other kind is the slow accretion of effort: the water-on-stone method, the soft root of the plant that splits the sidewalk, the constant wind that scours the mountain clean.” Can you guess which type of magic will be your specialty in the coming weeks, Leo? It will be the laborious, slow accre tion of effort. And that is precisely what will work best for the tasks that are most important for you to accomplish.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): “My own curios ity and interest are insatiable,” wrote Cancerian author Emma Lazarus (1849–1887). Inspired by the wealth of influences she absorbed, she creat ed an array of poetry, plays, novels, essays, and translations—including the famous poem that graces the pedestal of America’s Statue of Liber ty. I recommend her as a role model for you in the coming weeks, Cancerian. I think you’re ripe for an expansion and deepening of your curiosity. You will benefit from cultivating an enthusiastic quest for new information and fresh influences. Here’s a mantra for you: “I am wildly innocent as I vivify my
ASTROLOGY
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): To be the best Aquarius you can be in the coming weeks, I sug gest the following: 1. Zig when others zag. Zag when others zig. 2. Play with the fantasy that you’re an extraterrestrial who’s engaged in an experiment on planet Earth. 3. Be a hopeful cyn ic and a cheerful skeptic. 4. Do things that inspire people to tell you, “Just when I thought I had you figured out, you do something unexpected to con found me.” 5. Just for fun, walk backward every now and then. 6. Fall in love with everything and everyone: a D-List celebrity, an oak tree, a neon sign, a feral cat.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): “The time you en joy wasting is not wasted time,” said philosopher Bertrand Russell. I will add that the time you enjoy wasting is often essential to your well-being. For the sake of your sanity and health, you periodically need to temporarily shed your ambitions and avoid as many of your responsibilities as you safely can. During these interludes of refreshing emptiness, you recharge your precious life energy. You be come like a fallow field allowing fertile nutrients to regenerate. In my astrological opinion, now is one of these revitalizing phases for you.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): In his poem “Autobi ographia Literaria,” Ari es-born Frank O’Hara wrote, “When I was a child, I played in a corner of the school yard all alone. If anyone was looking for me, I hid behind a tree and cried out, ‘I am an orphan.’” Over the years, though, O’Hara underwent a marvelous transformation. This is how his poem ends: “And here I am, the center of all beauty! Writing these poems! Imagine!” In the coming months, Aries, I suspect that you, too, will have the potency to outgrow and transcend a sadness or awkwardness from your own past.

However, subtle motions are import ant to the function and vitality of all our organs, including the heart. We’re not just talking about the pulse and wavelike movement of blood, critical as that may be. There is mobility, the passive ability to accommodate the movement of adjacent structures. For the heart, this includes the bellows-like move ments of the respiratory diaphragm, the lungs, and the ribs and sternum, but also our bending, turning, lifting, walking and running. The heart’s func tion and vitality also depends on motil ity, the active movements around the organ’s own axis. On the order of six to eight cycles per minute, most organ motilities are paired with another’s, but the heart pendulums from side to side, independently. Perhaps, that’s why the heart is sometimes called the lonely hunter. Evolution has taken great lengths to protect the heart: skin, ribs and spine, pericardium, the serous fluid between each layer, and the three ligaments that suspend it in space to prevent colli sions with its bony cage. Indeed, only the brain comes close, protection-wise. Nonetheless, the heart remains vulnerable. It can still be bruised. It can be tweaked by

A restriction on any one of these roots or branches could interfere with the heart’s mobil ity, motility and pumping. Since most of us average about 100,000 heartbeats per day, and 38 mil lion beats per year, the effects of even a small restriction compound contin uously. To minimize that interference, the body recruits muscles and sacrific es bones and joints to draw the restrict ed part closer to the trunk, thereby reducing the tension. Indeed, this is the origin of many chronic joint problems. Although restrictions may be pure ly physical, many include a bodymind component: some emotional overload that the brain has parked in the tissue, waiting to be discovered and released. I once treated a nurse who’d become overly attached to her dying patients. Her heart was nearly glued to her spine until she learned a different way to re-member them.

Traditional Chinese Medicine associ ates summer with Fire. One of five elements, Fire includes the Pericar dium, Triple Warmer, Small Intestine and Heart meridians. The pericardi um protects the heart from shocks and Triple Warmer balances the thoracic, digestive and eliminative organs. In TCM, Small Intestine sep arates the pure from the impure, a met aphor for what it actually does. No inter nal organ has a big ger role than the heart. TCM views it as the home of “shen” or Spirit. The English reflects that: we are heart ened by good news, disheartened by bad. If we take things too much to heart, we can end up broken-hearted. The French word for heart is coeur, as in encour aged and discouraged. In other words, Anglo-European culture’s embrace of the bodymind connection is centuries old.With help from the lungs, the heart supplies the brain with oxygen and nutrients. Keeping the “lights on upstairs” is the most important job in the body, hence the emphasis on Car diopulmonary Resuscitation.

A home inspection is an objective examination of the physical structure and systems of a home, from the top of the roof to the crawlspace and foun dation. I cannot stress this enough: Get a home inspection every time. Part of making a “good decision” is being aware of as many facts as possi ble; having a professional inspector go through a property as well as check out the major components is easily worth the cost. Now, one must also under stand that the job of a home inspec tor is to find issues, or point out things that are imperfect, and trust me, they always find things. I work with inspec tors who inspect brand-new construc tion and they find things to report on every time. Both the buyer and the agent need to understand that while an inspector will point out dozens of issues in most homes, it is important to keep perspective. Take some time to educate yourself on what kind of items should be concerning and what kind of things can simply be added to a “week end to-do list.” For instance, an inspec tor pointing out a cracked outlet cover should not scare a buyer away from a home, whereas major mold issues may do Oneso. of the best ways to learn about your new house and the major sys tems is to attend the home inspection. There’s a lot of value in learning where your water shut-off is located and how you access the crawl space, or learning about your electrical box and breakers and what each light switch does. Every one has different levels of knowledge about homes, so take the opportunity to ask the inspector whatever questions you have. Attending the inspection also makes reading and understanding the inspection report much easier, as the inspector will likely take some time to show you some of the items they will be “calling out” in the report.

Typically, in the state of Oregon, from the time buyer and seller agree to terms, the buyer has 10 days to inspect the property and negotiate any repairs or credits. The buyer can terminate the purchase agreement and retain their earnest money if they are within this window, so staying on top of your inspection period is imperative. Time is of the essence when it comes to getting your inspection scheduled and com pleted to allow time to negotiate any needed repairs/credits, so that every thing is buttoned up before the inspec tion window expires. Hope this helps with your next home inspection!

If a deal is going to fall apart, most of them begin to unravel during the home inspection process. Sometimes buyers get “cold feet” after finding out about some small or large issues; sometimes the buyer and seller cannot come to terms when negotiat ing repairs or credits. Often, agents can work through these issues in a profes sional manner and keep the transaction moving forward to closing. I did want to take a moment to talk about home inspections—what they are, how to make the most of your inspection and how the inspection is used in a real estate transaction.
