BEND’S NEWEST LUXURY SPA
Jim Clinton For Central Oregon Community College Director, Zone 5
nlike the two other races for the Central Oregon Community College board, Zone 5 has two candidates. One of them, John F. Short, says he decided to run, at least in part, so there would be more than one candidate. Short, who has experience teaching in agriculture at the community college level, says his priorities include increasing campus security, offering opportunities for child care for students and increasing opportunities for non-traditional students to gain access to COCC coursework and degrees—offering better transit options and increasing online degree opportunities. Short’s ideas are valuable, and COCC should do what it can to remove any barriers that keep some people from attending school. We also appreciate his desire to have more buy-in from student government on issues the board faces. Still, Clinton, the incumbent, is just getting started on the board, having been appointed in January. With his years of experience as city councilor and mayor of Bend, we know him to be a mild-mannered yet effective leader. On the COCC board, his goal is to “do what is best for students,” and believes the most effective online degree programs are hybrid models that require students
to occasionally be present on campus. On the topic of campus security, Clinton pointed out that all the security measures and changes suggested by the district attorney and police chief have been carried out. Clinton acknowledged that some board members have a tendency to only hear from faculty and administrators when making decisions, and acknowledged that student input is crucial. We also appreciate his notion that he’s not just obligated to COCC community members, but to the voters who expect him to be more than just a “cheerleader for the administration.” He also told us he rejects the “Carver model” adopted by other school boards, in which board members dictate policy, but don’t concern themselves with the nuts and bolts of those policies. On the topic of decreased enrollment at COCC, Clinton believes rebuilding morale following the negative press around the murder of Kaylee Sawyer is crucial. In addition, he’s interested in increasing Career and Technical Education offerings, and collaborating with local businesses to tailor programs local employers need. While Short brings up some valuable ideas, we believe Clinton should be given more time to serve. Vote Jim Clinton for COCC Director, Zone 5.

oters have two solid choices in the Position 3 race for the Sisters school board. While both candidates have already served on the board, Jeff Smith is the incumbent. Stephen King told us he decided to run in this seat when it looked like no one else would—but then, Smith also added his name to the race. Smith is a lifelong educator who professes to have a “public service gene.” He says his main goal is to create an environment where kids can be successful. King is the CEO of his own company, having worked in technology companies and startups. We appreciate King’s desire for the Sisters School District to not just rest on the laurels of its high graduation rate, but to aim for students to reach their
highest potential in whatever niche they’re most interested in, and for students to possess critical thinking and creativity. Still, it’s because of each candidates’ take on one main issue that we put our support toward Smith. Constituents in Sisters have indicated that keeping class sizes small is an important issue for them. King calls this a “fascination with class size”—indicating to us that he’s less interested in listening to voters about what they want. Smith, on the other hand, told us class size is a priority for him. Challenging the status quo is a quality we value—but at the same time, listening to the desires of voters is key. Vote Jeff Smith for Sisters School District Pos. 3.

IN RESPONSE TO, “PUBLIC HEALTH OF PHARMA PROFITS” ON 4/24
CLIMATE CHANGE
Appreciation to all who have made changes to reduce their carbon footprint, addressing climate change. Problem isindividual actions are not enough. We need industry and businesses to participate. We need a national policy change from the government that garners widespread participation to effect the scale of change scientists tell us is needed by 2030. We need an incentive that inspires us to work together for a solution- a clean, low carbon economy. The Energy Innovation and Carbon Dividend Act HR 763 is gaining traction in the House of Representatives with 34 bi-partisan cosponsors. It would drive down carbon pollution, bring climate change under control, and unleash the power of the American free-market innovation and ingenuity. The carbon dividend would put money directly into people’s pockets every month to spend as they see fit, helping low and middle income Americans to transition to lower carbon choices. —Jackie Ellis
IN RESPONSE TO, “PAY CHECKS” ON 5/2 I will. I volunteer. The next time Mark H. Winger loses one of his commodities to a wolf, he can send me the bill. Two conditions: 1) satisfactory evidence it was killed by a wolf, and 2) he has to spare said wolf.
@sourceweekly
For someone to say a wolf is “trespassing on private property” is laughable and terrifyingly ludicrous. The land was the native peoples’, and the wolves and their ancestors long before it was exploited by this modern society. Regardless of what the paperwork states, you don’t ‘own’ your land, you’re merely renting it. You may have to learn to forgive the wolf, who is rightfully here, for not honoring your posted signs, for slinking under your fence, or stepping over the invisible line in the dirt. He or she is just trying to put food on the table too, and in its mind, your table is no more important than theirs. I’m not all “touchy, feely”, and I don’t think they’re “cute”. But I do admire and respect them as a fellow creature on this planet for their survivalist efficiency and place in the ecosystem. And sometimes, for their lack of emotion. —Kathy Smith I found Mark H. Winger’s views regarding wolves “trespassing “ on private land truly astonishing. Considering that wolves have been in North America some 750,000 years, and European settlers arrived in Oregon less than 200 years ago, I am inclined to ask, just who are the actual trespassers? —Warren Tausch COST OF FREEDOM The first three letters to the editor in the last Source Weekly could have been written by the same person—pushing to murder wolves, defending the Trump crime family, and mocking climate change alarmists? Wow. Meet this type of person (the small minority with power, still) in a documentary called Cost of Freedom at www.21paradigm.org. See how their victims are faring while they hold power to murder, lie, deceive and thieve. This is your country. I came here from South Africa. In my first decade as a U.S. resident I was shocked and heartbroken over the bloodlust, hatred and persecution of wildlife. In my second decade I started to understand the politics of it. The vast majority of Americans want the violence to end. If you want peace, vote for it. Vote to protect wolves, vote to oust Trump and vote with every dollar you spend—or don’t spend—on climate change. —Vanessa Schulz

The anti-vax movement has hit a fever pitch. We are now reaping the results of allowing a segment of our population to resist the very serious public health benefits of vaccinations. Diseases that were close to eradication are now in resurgence and the resulting public health emergency is real. As most arguments without real scientific merit, this article traffics in the usual strategies; false equivalency, disingenuous concern for loopholes in the proposed law, repudiation of professional medical science and assertions of a Big Pharma/government conspiracy. Universal vaccination in the United States is responsible for the eradication or near eradication of deadly and disabling diseases i.e. polio, smallpox. Undermining the success we have had is short sighted and is having negative effects that will only increase. It should be mentioned that the law does not prohibit a medical reason for abstaining from vaccinations. If there is a real medical reason, have your doctor endorse it. —Jay Girard, RN

talented Bend La Pine Schools team working to improve the lives of our amazing 18,500 students. But I believe we are at a breaking point. I joined the board just as we began the great recession, and we made many painful budget cuts in those early years. Surprisingly, in spite of a full economic recovery, we still have not returned to pre-recession class sizes or a full school year. The intervening years have been marked by a steady disinvestment in K-12 education. Meanwhile, we’ve adapted curriculum, increased our graduation rate, improved security at our school facilities, and responded to a dramatic increase in mental and behavioral health needs. And teachers are maxed out—the profession has become more stressful and demanding than ever before. It’s time to fully fund education. An investment in education now will combat future poverty, homelessness, crime and incarceration. When we reduce class sizes, teachers and staff can strengthen each child’s connection to school and learning. Investing now will mean we can better address the social and emotional needs of students. Investing now will help us bridge the gaps for our most vulnerable children and offer programs and electives to energize and broaden their school experiences. I invite you to contact our legislators and insist on better K-12 school funding. —Peggy Kinkade

Bend-Prineville air quality ranked No. 22 for the most polluted cities for short-term particle pollution By Chris Miller
E
ven though Central Oregon got hit by a late snowstorm this winter, information from the National Interagency Fire Center says normal significant wildfire potential is expected during this year’s fire season, which typically runs from May to August. According to the NIFC, outlooks through spring and summer continue to indicate warmer-than-average conditions for the region. Long-range outlooks suggest fire danger will rise to be above average during the summer. And where there’s fire, there’s smoke. The American Lung Association ranked Bend-Prineville this year as No.22 in its “People at Risk in 25 U.S. Cities Most Polluted by Short-Term Particle Pollution.” According to Laura Gleim, public affairs specialist for the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality’s Eastern Region, although the ALA’s report mentions Bend, the report only uses data from an air monitor in Prineville. Gleim said because of Prineville’s location, sitting in a “bowl,” the city more
easily captures and retains woodstove smoke during the winter, naturally leading to worse air quality when people are burning their stoves. Bend and the rest of Deschutes County have more open geography, Gleim said, and don’t retain as much smoke in the winter. During wildfire season, however, it can be a different story. If the fires are burning in the Cascades, Bend can have worse air quality than Prineville. And, Gleim said, wildfires are by far the biggest source of air pollution in the Bend area. Gleim and the ALA said wildfires have been increasing across the Western United States in the last decade, and are expected to become even more frequent. According to the ALA, the Bend-Prineville area experienced nearly three times as many unhealthy particle days in 2018, in comparison to its 2017 report. The ALA said many of the spikes were directly linked to wildfires. “Bend had three weeks of air quality that was unhealthy for sensitive groups or worse in 2017 and one week in 2018,” Gleim wrote in an email to the Source. “Before
Smoke fills the air during the 2017 Milli Fire near Sisters.
2017, Bend did not have over three days of unhealthy for sensitive groups or worse in any year since we started monitoring.” According to a chart from the Oregon DEQ, the agency started monitoring in air quality in 1989. Before 2017, there were only 11 days total in Bend with unhealthy air quality caused by wildfire. Gleim said that outside of the smoke from wildfires and some from woodburning stoves, the air quality in Bend is typically pretty good. Some years in the spring, the forests around Bend are burned by managing agencies to keep the threat of wildfires down. Gleim said that the prescribed burns do contribute to some air pollution, but they’re relatively low in comparison to a full-fledged wildfire—and those burns help create healthier forests and
reduce the severity of wildfires. Particle pollution, according to the ALA, is a mix of tiny solid and liquid particles that are in the air people breathe. Particle pollution can increase the risk of heart disease, lung cancer and asthma attacks. According to the ALA, particle pollution is more dangerous for people over 65 and infants, children and teens. People at the greatest risk of harm from short-term particle pollution are those with lung cancer, asthma, cardiovascular disease, diabetes and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. Bakersfield, Calif., was the most polluted city by short-term particle pollution, according to the ALA’s report. Medford-Grants Pass was the 10th most polluted city for year-round particle pollution and Los Angeles-Long Beach, Calif., was the N0.1 most ozone-polluted city in the country.

Transit Station Rankles Neighbors By Chris Miller
M
embers of the business community and people who live around Cascades East Transit’s Hawthorne Avenue Station voiced their displeasure to the Bend City Council on May 1 about problems they feel aren’t being addressed at Hawthorn Avenue bus station just east of Third Street in Bend. People spoke about crime, transients, buses blocking driveways and traffic issues in the area. In a letter dated April 24 from the Hawthorne Avenue Neighbors to the Central Oregon Intrergovernmental Council—which oversees CET—the group said that even though they were appreciative of the COIC reversing its decision to ban smoking at the station—and is currently working on a smoking area—the feedback they’ve received from members of the group is they’ve seen little progress on crime, safety and traffic flow issues generated by the station. DeeDee Burzynski, the co-owner of Denture In, told the Council that buses block the entrance to her business. She said transients sleep on the roof, threaten patients and lock themselves in the bathroom and shower in it. Stacey Sabin, who represented Bend Family Dentistry, said during the Council meeting that the
transient population is “horrible,” and employees are afraid to go out into the parking lot. Ken Fuller said Bend has a wonderful transit system and passing it on to COIC was a great vision, but the location has failed. In a letter dated Jan. 22 of this year to the COIC and Bend Police Department, the Hawthorne Avenue Neighbors wrote that after 12 years of the station being in its location, the change the community has felt has not been for the better. The group wrote that an underlying issue to many of the problems— trespass, drug use, property damage, assaults and theft—are because the station isn’t adequate to accommodate the activities that must naturally occur there. Tammy Baney, COIC’s executive director, wrote in an email to the Source that COIC shares the concerns raised by the community and that COIC is committed to working with the City and community to identify what the transit facility and transit needs are for the future. The group of business leaders wrote that they remember hearing in 2006 that a transit station would take over the old Cascade Natural Gas building where Hawthorne Station is currently located. They
independent life, while also helping us to strengthen our transit system to meet the education and work force needs of our community as a whole,” Baney wrote. But Erin Foote Morgan, a representative for the Hawthorne Neighbors, said COIC is out of sync with the long-term transportation planning for the City of Bend, which may cause some missed opportunities for an improved transit station in Bend. Foote Morgan alleges that COIC is more than a year behind in its planning. In a letter to the Citywide Transportation Advisory Committee, the HAN wrote the City will soon begin testing projects and revenue streams with the public in preparation for a transportation bond. The letter stated that if the City and COIC were tracking together, there may be a chance to address transit infrastructure with the bond—along with other funding opportunities, including urban renewal, state grants and earmarked Congressional funding. “Ultimately, the buck stops with the Bend City Council if we’re going to have transit,” Foote Morgan told the Source. Baney, who began her tenure as executive director in January, said she doesn’t disagree with the HAN that COIC is a bit behind with its 2040 Master Plan, but adds that the reason is because COIC had to wait for ODOT approval before it could move forward with the planning. That didn’t come until late fall or early winter last year, she said. “Red tape and bureaucracy is what we have to get through,” Baney said. “And we have to get through it together.”

Neighborhood group says they’ve seen little progress on crime, safety and traffic flow generated by the Hawthorne Avenue Station
wrote they thought the transit station could mean positive change for business by bringing more customers to the area and by giving employees and neighbors more transportation choices. But as of the April letter, the group wrote it’s seen little change. According to a COIC letter to Hawthorne Avenue Neighbors on Feb. 28, COIC identified mitigations to help address short-term needs, including bus parking, bathroom hours, smoking areas and pedestrian safety. In the long-term, Baney wrote that COIC has applied for a Oregon Department of Transportation Statewide Transportation Improvement Fund grant for $124,850 to help fund a renovation of the interior of Hawthorne Station. If approved for the grant, COIC wrote it anticipates being able to make the improvements in late summer of this year. Baney said COIC hopes to have an answer within the coming weeks. The HAN wrote in April that businesses are still being blocked by buses, and that residents on Hawthorne Avenue continue to have buses driving down their street and alleyways, despite drivers being told that it isn’t permitted. Business owners also report that their bathrooms are still being used by intercity riders. Baney countered by saying the region, and primarily Bend, is growing quickly. She said COIC will address the long-range facility planning in the 2040 CET Master Transit Plan over the coming year, which not only addresses Hawthorne Station but also the City’s interest in mobility hubs throughout the community. “This will require our community to come together to support those who rely on transit to have a full and

Report: More People Are Moving to Oregon Than Leaving A report from the Oregon Employment Department shows that from 2013 to 2017, more people have moved to Oregon than have left. Although Oregon saw migration flow between every state in the nation, it was mostly between nearby western states. Oregon also saw an influx of people from specific career industries. Oregon gains the most residents from California. On average, 39,320 Californians move to Oregon annually. But an average of 19,523 Oregonians also make the move south, leaving Oregon with a net gain of 19,797 new residents from California every year. The state with the second-highest net “in-migration” number (the difference between people moving from a state and Oregonians leaving for that same state) is Hawaii. – Meerah Powell, Jefferson Public Radio

U.S. House Passes Bill to Improve Tribal Fishing Sites On Monday, the U.S. House of Representatives passed a bill that would provide $11 million to improve unsafe and unsanitary living conditions at tribal fishing sites on the Columbia River. Over time, the federal government created 31 in-lieu fishing sites for Native American tribes to make up for the land that was flooded when the Columbia River dams were built. The tribes were also promised new housing to replace what was lost. But that promise still hasn’t been fulfilled. In the meantime, many tribal fishermen have created makeshift residences at the in-lieu fishing sites. – Cassandra Profita, OPB
Large Grid Storage Project Near Klamath Falls Gets Federal Approval Federal energy regulators granted approval and a license to an energy storage project near Klamath Falls. It’s the first facility of its kind in decades to be licensed in the Pacific Northwest and, if built, will be the largest energy storage facility in the region. Developers of Swan Lake North pumped storage plan to build a new reservoir system to store electricity from the grid. When electricity is plentiful and inexpensive, pumps will push water to a 60-acre reservoir high on a hill. Then when demand rises, the facility will release that water over turbines to a lower reservoir. As with a hydroelectric dam, the spinning turbines generate electricity that can then be fed back to supplement the grid. The $800 million project has a 393-megawatt capacity — enough to meet the instantaneous demand of up to 390,000 homes. – Jes Burns and Courtney Flatt, OPB

T
he first time I walked into Tin Pan Theater, I knew I wanted to make it my life. I was hosting trivia at Goodlife Brewing and was looking for prizes to give away. Tin Pan had been open for two weeks, and after Google Maps incorrectly led me to Gasoline Alley, I found my way to Tin Pan Alley and the boutique art house theater at its center. Walking in the door, I immediately smelled the fresh popcorn and the leather of the antique seats from the Hollywood Theater in Portland. I took in the glass jars of candy filled to the brim with Whoppers and Red Vines, the lush curtains surrounding the movie screen, the multiple taps featuring craft bees, cider and all kinds of homemade teas and sodas. Owners Micah and Esme LaVoy gave me a fistful of tickets to give away (which I did). When I came back a week later for more prizes, they offered me a job on the spot as a ticket seller and programmer/curator of films. I did an awkward happy dance and spent the next few years spending as much time as possible pouring beers, projecting movies and generally being as annoying as humanly possible. Never in my life have I been in a space that felt so acutely like home. Since I was a kid, I’d dreamed of helping
pick the movies that played at a movie theater, and Micah and Esme instantly made me feel like a member of the family. Adding to the family vibe was the fact that their newborn peed on me when he was two days old. “We just both were really into film and missed the cinema experiences we had visiting Portland and Seattle,” says Esme LaVoy. “We had thrown around the idea of having a little movie house
one day and when the space in the alley became available, we knew we had to try. Also, Micah was smitten with a tiny cinema in France while traveling which inspired his design of the Tin Pan.” Changes for the Theater A while back, the couple moved out of town and left the management of the theater to others. Around that time, I got busier at the Source and wasn’t able Keely Damara

to put any time in at the theater. Just like a family sometimes, you just don’t see each other as much as you want to. Then, in the most beautiful twist of fate, BendFilm announced on May 3 that it had purchased the theater. Esme LaVoy explains: “Honestly, we were starting to feel so disconnected from the theater, living so far away. We really love being a physical part of our business and the Tin Pan needed new local energy.” Executive Director of BendFilm, Todd Looby, had a similar experience when he walked into Tin Pan for the first time—although instead of walking into the theater and seeing Micah and Esme, he encountered Micah and myself. “I was blown away by the genius of that theater’s concept and design, especially each intentional and carefully placed detail,” says Looby. “From that meeting, talking with two funny, interesting dudes, IPA in hand on a Wednesday at noon, and a delicious tamale in the other that would rival any other I could have gotten in Chicago’s Pilsen neighborhood, while sitting at a split log bar in the coolest theater I’d been in... I was hooked.” Looby understands the importance of places like Tin Pan in communities that don’t always have access to the same kind of films that L.A., Chicago and New York have.

We also want to continue some of the great, special programming Tin Pan has done over the years including things Keely Damara
Tin Pan Theater is nestled downtown at the intersection of Electric Avenue and Tin Pan Alley.
“The only way I can really describe the Tin Pan is that it is a community living room—and that doesn’t necessarily do it justice,” says Looby. “Its genius lies in the fact that it doesn’t really allow a totally anonymous experience—but you also don’t have to speak to anyone if you don’t want to. However, you are at least connected with everyone in that theater. You do see everyone in the theater upon entry, several of whom you may know, while ordering and waiting for your drinks and popcorn.” Over my years there, I saw sold-out houses get up and walk out of a movie they hated. A different audience for the same movie would stand up as one during the closing credits and applaud. There was something remarkable about standing behind the bar, and
looking at the faces of the audience as they laughed, cried or cheered. The immediacy of watching people associate with art in real time is exactly why I’ve dedicated most of my life to writing and talking about movies. A Film Fest With Its Own Space It’s not entirely unique for a film fest to acquire its own theaters, either. “Several festivals around the country have been building or acquiring arthouses in recent years,” Looby explains. “The current landscape in Bend doesn’t necessarily lend itself to a new, safe bet on a bigger, standalone independent arthouse theater—but we definitely wanted to do much more year-round stuff. The Tin Pan, though, is the perfect business model to ensure the best, current indies are

I would have a hard time changing any other detail of the theater, as I think it’s perfect.” The quality of the movies won’t be changing, either. “Programming-wise, people will just see more of the great things they’ve experienced at the festival and previously at the Tin Pan,” says Looby.
like Spaghetti Western Wednesdays.” Looby doesn't anticipate a gap in movie showings, either. "We have no plans to close for an extended period of time for a re-brand," Looby said. "There may be rare and short closures as we finish the floor and make other improvements to seating and screening, pending funding." Micah and Esme made Bend a part of their family with Tin Pan.

hitting the screen, getting full crowds, and not at great risk of going broke.” So what kind of changes might the die-hard Tin Panatics have to look forward to? “We’d like to get a bigger screen in there, and I am currently looking at proposals,” says Looby. “Though our first infrastructure improvement will be re-upholstering the seats to make them much more puffy and comfortable, but retaining the intimacy they provide. We’re looking at ways to easily and slightly tier the seating as well. We hope to raise funds through a Tin Pan Theater

Upstate Comes Out West
Vocalist Melanie Glenn talks about the band’s beginnings and new album By Isaac Biehl

All the way from Upstate New York, this band visits Bend for the first time and hopes to find a brewery.
W
hen they first started out, Upstate (formerly the Upstate Rubdown) was just kind of kickin’ it and making music while in college. The band would play at dive bars, house parties and wherever else they could. While Upstate has seen member changes throughout the years, singer/guitarist Melanie Glenn looks at that as a positive. “We just wanted to keep going. We were enjoying writing together,” recalls Glenn. “We’ve changed personnel a lot over the beginning years—and still do. But I think that just adds to our writing ability; working with new people.” The newest member to the lineup is singer Allison Olender, who makes for a killer addition to the trio of voices— which also includes Glenn and Mary Kenney. Upstate uses layers on layers of beautiful harmonies throughout its music. The band’s latest album, “Healing,” is proof of that. “We loved her [Allison’s] songwriting
style and her voice. We were excited to work with her,” Glenn says about the addition of Olender. “We kind of hit the ground running. She moved to upstate New York with us and we practiced like full, long hour days for like four or five days before her first show. So, it was a lot. We’ve definitely grown a lot, as the three of us.” Running for 41 minutes and spanning 11 tracks, the band recorded the album, “Healing,” in a total of five days—which, believe it or not, is the longest the band has ever spent recording a project. Upstate’s debut album, “A Remedy,” only took three days. Through Kickstarter and the support of fans, friends and family, they raised enough cash to be able to rent studio time. Glenn tells me the band prefers to do live takes of its recordings—hopefully getting it down in one shot to really capture the “energy” and “connectivity” as a group. While Upstate’s sound is definitely folk or Americana based, they have a clear pull from a lot of other genres.

Glenn credits this to the variety of tastes each songwriter has in the band – like R&B, jazz or even her personal digs: Animal Collective and Hiatus Kaiyote. One of the big standouts off of “Healing” is the Latin-inspired track “Weekend” – which sounds just as fun as the feelings the title might invoke on its own. From there you even get some old school country, modern pop (almost like a toned-down Billie Eilish at times) and more. It’s a perfect hodgepodge of sweet tunes that stem from a deep theme. “‘Healing’ means a lot to us. We all have so many different ways that we can heal and healing is really hard – as we say in our title track,” Glenn says. “Throughout it we speak of different areas of where we’ve had to heal or where we had troubled times. As well as just referencing the whole gambit of life. It’s hard to heal. But we’re here and so we will. We have to at least try.” Currently on tour in support of the album’s release, Upstate is definitely taking advantage of the opportunity to travel and explore when they can. Recent stops include the Grand Canyon and Area 51, but Bend is something Glenn is stoked for. She even let out a “Yay” over the phone when I confirmed the location of Upstate’s show here at McMenamins. “We mostly do spur-of-the-moment. We always like to look up hot springs. That’s always a really good thing – not like the really nice ones, but like free, hole-in-the-ground ones, ya know?” Glenn says of Upstate’s touring adventures. “We’ve never been to Bend. I’m so excited to see that town! Go to a brewery or something, right? Aren’t there tons?”
No worries for Upstate there: Bend’s definitely got things covered in that department. Upstate

Kuinka’s new EP “Landlines” is out May 17.
K
uinka is a band formed out of happenstance—one of those “it’s a small world” moments. The four all grew up in Mount Vernon, Wash. While they ran in similar circles, they never really totally met. Miranda Zickler was reacquainted with brothers Nathan and Zach Hamer while they were all living in Brooklyn, randomly meeting at a diner in Union Square. As for Jillian Walker, she and Zickler had originally gone to elementary school together. After Walker attended an early Kuinka show in 2013, Zickler asked her along to help record and tour on the album. From there it just stuck. The Source spoke with Zickler over the phone about Kuinka’s upcoming EP “Landlines,” the band’s sound and their experience with NPR. Source Weekly: How long were you guys working on “Landlines?” Miranda Zickler: It’s been kind of a drawn-out sort of process. We went into a kind of writer’s retreat situation at the end of 2017. Then we’ve just kind of been doing it in little fits and starts. Like recording things ourselves for the last year and a half. SW: What did you guys do for the retreat? Did you travel somewhere remote? MZ: We went to Lopez Island, which is in the San Juans up here. We stayed in – Jillian, our cellist’s, like her distant relatives’ kind of summer home? But it was in the dead of winter. So nothing was going on on the island. The house itself is like stuck in the ‘90s, in like a real way. There’s no cell service and there’s no Wi-Fi. So we had to call our loved ones on the landline in the house which is kind of where we got the title. It was really fun and special to be kind of, like, removed from everything in that way. SW: What were some of the things you were all focused on with making “Landlines?” As far as your growth as a band or inspirations? MZ: We definitely took a lot of inspiration from ‘90s nostalgia. We’ve been playing a lot more with, like, synthesizers, different guitar tones and different styles of writing. We’ve been doing all of the recording ourselves, which is something really different than we’ve done in the past, so that’s been a learning process. It’s an interesting animal.
SW: How do you blend all your unique styles together to make one sound? MZ: You know, we never intended to make any specific type of music. It’s just kind of whatever all of us are feeling at that point. We all kind of have diverse tastes in music so it works out well for us to kind of all collaborate and bring different things to the table. It always ends up sounding like Kuinka even though we’re always changing and shifting. SW: You guys were able to do a Tiny Desk Concert. What was that experience like? MZ: Oh, it was amazing! We’re all huge NPR nerds. We got to go in and tour the offices and it was so special – really a bucket list thing. Like our biggest goal was to do a Tiny Desk. It was really fun. SW: Did you win that spot through your audition video? MZ: So, we did a video every year for the contest. But we never won. NPR went on this Tiny Desk tour where they picked their favorite videos from each region. They had us come and do this show and Bob Boilen, who runs Tiny Desk, hosted. We chatted after and he asked us to come sometime after that. It was a really roundabout way. So, it was the contest that got us in front of them but we never won. SW: Do you a have a favorite Tiny Desk performance? MZ: Oh my gosh. There are so many good ones. Off the top of my head – OK Go did one years ago when they [NPR] was moving offices. So they did it in like 20 takes. They did it in the old office and in the moving truck on the way to the new office. And then in the new office. It was the only time you see the full offices. Every other video it looks like this tiny little space but when you actually pan around its this huge room with cubicles and desks and windows. So, I showed this one to the band and was like ‘This is what we’re in for!’

Rappel off the roof of the Oxford Hotel in downtown Bend to raise donations for our community. Partner with us to fight for the health, education, financial stability, and resilience of EVERY person in our Central Oregon community…IN AN EXHILARATING WAY!

INVESTING IN FUTURE SOLUTIONS Funding the immediate is necessary, but not sufficient. We’re still focused on challenges that we’ve addressed for 67 years, like HEALTH, EDUCATION, and FINANCIAL STABILTIY. And, through our TRACEs (Trauma, Resilience, and Adverse Childhood Experiences) initiative, we are also moving upstream to address CHILDHOOD TRAUMA as the root cause of challenges currently faced by so many in our community—issues that are immediate today—so that they don’t exist tomorrow.
We improve lives and foster a healthier Central Oregon in 4 main ways: •

show. The TMP production will have an all-teen cast, she notes. It’s also all-female, with the exception of Felciano as Emmett. “Gavin is the only boy in the production,” Gardner explains. “Emmett is the only character— the only actual person—as far as the men go. All the other male roles are stereotypes. So what we’ve done, what I’ve chosen to do as the director is, we have a bunch of girls pretending to be boys, to make fun of the stereotype.” “They’re really good at it, too,” Music Director Erik McGinnis interjects. Both directors say the kids have a lot of fun with the role reversals. “Sienna (Swetland) plays Callaghan, the stiff (male) professor,” Gardner says. “Omigosh. And Alex (Alexandra
Dennis), who is one of our smaller girls, she’ll have the big Tom Selleck moustache as the UPS guy.” At a rehearsal at Terpsichorean Dance Studio of Bend, choreographer and studio director Dakota Weeda coached the iconic scene in which Paulette (Aubrey Luse) practices a physical flirting technique with her crush, the salon’s UPS man— and winds up breaking his nose. Weeda choreographs all of the action scenes in the show, including, of course, numerous group dance numbers. “What I really love about the T3 program (TMP’s teen performance arm) that we do every spring,” says Gardner, “is that these teenagers don’t always get the opportunities to play the bigger roles. They’re kind of in that awkward

Desert Perspectives
Artists showcase their take on water at High Desert Museum By Teafly Peterson
Mosely Wotta (Jason Graham) in front of his piece titled W.O.E. 1.
t began a year ago, when The High Desert Museum invited four artists, including local creative laureate Mosley Wotta (Jason Graham), Ka’ila Farrell-Smith, Dana Reason and Harmonic Lab to take field trips into various places in Oregon alongside curators, geologists, archeologists, ecologists, dam technicians and natural resource managers to look at and explore our relationship to water. The result is a
fascinating exhibition titled “Desert Perspectives: Water Shapes the West,” now on display through Sept. 29. On the ceiling is an enormous and graceful sculpture created by Harmonic Lab that mimics water. It’s calming, beautiful and mesmerizing—the way tides can be, lapping at the shore. Each contemporary artist has taken their own medium to explore the world of water, which,

stage where they can’t really play the kid anymore, but can’t play an adult. These shows are perfect for them.” “In whatever program you’re doing,” says McGinnis, “there’s room for growth. “We are not only teaching the kids the show, but we’re slipping in the acting technique, the vocal, the directing technique and the business side of things. All of these kids have a future here in whatever area they want.” Felciano feels that being in musical theater has taught him a lot about singing. “I can do more with my voice now than if I just saw a vocal coach. Doing shows gives you—if there’s a certain emotion you need in a song, you can carry it over,” he says. “Are you mad in this song, are you sad, are you happy? Learning to distinguish that is harder than most people think.” He also finds that participating in theater is an easy way to make new friends. “I’ve done shows with probably all of them (in the Blonde cast) at least once before,” he says. “Tia (Elle) is one of my friends from school. I kind of made her do the show,” he grins. “It worked out great!” McGinnis couldn’t agree more. He says he’d had Tia in a class and knew she had potential, but then at the audition, he says, “she blew our socks off.”
at first, seems simple. There are videos and soundscapes, paintings and music. Alongside the art are displays with information on three basins in the local high desert, including the Klamath, Mid-Columbia and Great Salt Lake basins. “We are finding that art is an accessible way for our community to explore our mission,” says Dana Whitelaw, executive director of the High Desert
Museum. Whitelaw finds it exciting to see artists and scientists sharing ideas, then ultimately working on their own to decipher the excursions. The exhibition even spills out onto the grounds of the museum. Mosley Wotta created leather wraps with his writing and drawings around trees throughout the grounds. Reason, a composer, has installed a soundscape in one of the sitting areas. On a sunny Friday afternoon, I sat alongside the brook, in the trees listening to Reason’s composition. Not exactly melodic, but transfixing. The sounds fit perfectly within the shake of the trees, the babble of the brook and the songs of the birds, as if it was harmonizing with all of them.

ou might remember the movie version, starring Reese Witherspoon. Now, local kids are taking on “Legally Blonde” with a junior version. Watch Elle (played by Thoroughly Modern Productions newcomer Tia Wisco) overcome stereotypes and sour grapes to win herself a better beau—and a bright new career for herself to boot—overcoming obstacles and forging new friendships along the way. “This is my first show,” Wisco said in a recent interview. It will be the first time the eighth-grader has performed in a dramatic production. “All of it is surprising and challenging,” she says. “It’s a lot of fun.” Wisco and fellow eighth-grader Gavin Felciano, who plays Elle’s future romantic interest, Emmett, both enjoy taking part in a cheerful comedy. “I like happy endings, because I don’t like being sad,” Wisco smiles. “It’s pretty much my first comic role,” says Felciano. “There have been moments in shows where there’s some short comedy moments, but within a pretty blank-slate character. Before this, I came from 'West Side Story,' very dramatic. I feel like you can progress as an actor from a dramatic (part), but it’s also good to have something that leaves the audience with a smile on their face, rather than tears running down their eyes,” he laughs. “Gavin was one of the funniest kids we’ve ever had the chance to work with,” Director Savannah Gardner says. “It’s fun to see him share that with the audience now.” Gardner says some of the more adult content of the rom-com musical is removed for this junior version of the

Gala de Oro Celebrates Latino Culture
The Riverhouse on the Deschutes will be the site of a dance, silent auction and raffle this week, benefiting the Latino Community Association. The Gala de Oro starts at 5 pm Saturday with margaritas, beer and wine, followed by dinner that includes Lomo saltado (thin, marinated beef ), Veracruz-style fish and chile rellenos, and then a dance featuring the band Conjunto Alegre—a 12-piece band from Portland. “The LCA provides invaluable services to our friends and neighbors in the Latino community, and we are pleased to be able to support a program that makes such a significant impact on so many lives,” said David Lenke, general manager of Riverhouse on the Deschutes. Rhubarb doesn’t only have to go into pie. Here, use it as a delightful spring salad.
D
uring the heyday of the Silk Road, dried rhubarb root was at times more expensive than cinnamon or opium. Marco Polo went searching in northwest China for specimens that could thrive in Europe. A powerful laxative, rhubarb was a medicine long before it was a food. Half a century after Polo, the Spanish ambassador to present day Uzbekistan placed rhubarb in the most esteemed of company. His 1405 report to King Henry III notes, “The best of all merchandise coming to Samarkand was from China: especially silks, satins, musk, rubies, diamonds, pearls, and rhubarb.” Perhaps the ambassador’s appreciation for rhubarb was rooted in some digestive ailment. At the very least, we know he was probably not making pie. It wasn’t until the 1800s, when the price of sugar began to drop, that Europeans began eating rhubarb stems (the leaves are poisonous) as a food. Since then, the sour flavor of rhubarb has been countered with sugar, and perhaps other fruit. To this day, rhubarb sometimes goes by the name “pieplant,” and remains synonymous with dessert. If you can name a rhubarb dish that contains less than a cup of sugar, you are a statistical anomaly. But there is no reason why it can’t be used in all kinds of savory dishes, in place of other acidic ingredients like vinegar, tamarind or lime juice— whenever you need a touch of tang. I’ve made hummus by simmering the garbanzo beans with rhubarb, and skipping the lemon juice, and ended up with the best batch of hummus I’ve ever made. Nutty and creamy, it made the
control batch taste overly lemony in a side-by-side comparison. I’ve prepared yellow curry with coconut, spinach and choice of proteins, with floating chunks of freshly-sliced rhubarb giving a sour, exotic flavor to the curry. This time of year, when the rhubarb is still young, we have the opportunity to enjoy it raw and unsweetened, a serving suggestion that’s obvious yet rarely employed. Eating raw rhubarb is an intimidating proposition. It’s a strong flavor. And if it were any in other salad it might not work. The rhubarb plant awakens from the ground like a giant toadstool in early spring, its broad, poisonous leaves unfurling to shade the red, tender stems beneath. This early emergence, along with its laxative properties, made rhubarb a popular ingredient in many recipes for "spring tonic," a folksy cocktail of early season shoots and roots, either made as a tea or chomped down. People consumed spring tonic to recharge their bodies with vitamins and fiber after a winter's worth of starch and cabin fever. As the rhubarb awakens, the dandelions also emerge. These two unrelated plants are kindred spirits, both able to survive like outlaws in the shadows of human settlements, growing where they can. And each has its own outsized flavor. A dandelion is at the far edge of the bitter spectrum, while rhubarb is at the extreme end of sour. Eaten together in my salad, the bitter dandelion never tasted so mild-mannered. The mouth-twisting sour crunch of rhubarb,
meanwhile, suddenly tastes sweet, thanks to the bitter dandelion leaves. Raw rhubarb is a recipe rarity. Most rhubarb salad recipes call for sweetening and cooking the stalk, and understandably so. Left to its devices, rhubarb can overwhelm a dish. In rhubarb dandelion salad, little pieces of rhubarb behave brilliantly, acting like chunks of early-season tomato, sharing acids with the vinaigrette, getting tangled in the spring greens. Rhubarb Dandelion Salad Resist the urge to add sweet things to this little salad. Hold the strawberries. Skip the honey mustard. Leave the rhubarb alone with the dandelion and let flavor take its course. Serves four Four cups coarsely chopped dandelion greens ¼-1/2 cup thinly-sliced rhubarb 1 clove garlic, pressed, mashed or minced 1/4 cup thinly-sliced onion Dressing: ¼ cup olive oil 2 tablespoons soy sauce 1 tablespoon cider vinegar 2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar Mix the dressing. Toss the greens, garlic, onions and rhubarb in the dressing, fully coating each leaf and dragging each chunk of rhubarb through the dressing. Make sure each bite contains both bitter greens and rhubarb.

Sasquatch Strong Ale; a complex, pretty beer.
S
unriver Brewing Company opened a pub in Eugene early this spring. The Oakway Pub is located in the Oakway Center, just north of Autzen Stadium. It’s a decent sized, modern pub, with seating upstairs and downstairs. The upstairs is set up so that you look down onto the first floor of the pub. A bar runs along its rail, so you can sit and watch the other patrons, see their faces as they drink their beer, and watch servers carrying food. The menu is similar to that of both the Sunriver and Bend locations. It’s a great addition to the Eugene area, but I believe that the pubs in Central Oregon are superior. While at the pub, I had their turkey dip (as usual). I love that sandwich. So good. I mean, it’s turkey, so I feel better about eating it, but it’s got bacon and cheese, so not really. Enough about food; let’s talk about the beer. Sunriver doesn’t brew onsite, so the beer selections are going to be the same things you can get in Central Oregon. I had the Sasquatch Strong Ale. This beer is NOT for the faint of heart, at 9 percent ABV. That being said, drinking this beer, you would never guess it had that high of an ABV because it’s just so bright. The aroma is sweet because of the malts and you can also pick up a beautiful and earthy grain. Visually it’s on the dark red side, a rich, ruby color. Very pretty.
As is common with a strong ale, the Sasquatch has a very malty backbone, but the hops bring on a citrus that really balances out that sweetness from the malts. Also, from the hops you get some pine notes. The mouthfeel is on the lighter side because of a higher carbonation. I really like this, because it cuts through the syrupiness that can occur in a malty strong ale. The combined flavors take your taste buds on a full tour of the beer experience. You can taste the sweetness of the malts, and then the hops come around and brighten up the palate with pine and fruity notes. Next, you get the taste of grains, bringing in a refreshing green flavor, and finally it finishes with the bready, biscuit flavor of the yeast. Each part of this beer gets a moment to shine. It’s quite a pleasure to sip on while eating a delicious meal and people watching. On my drinkability scale, I give this beer a 3. I will be drinking it again, for sure, but I’m not sure that those just getting into drinking beer can handle the high ABV or rich flavor of this beer. Me, however, I say bring it on!

Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House, Redmond Cinema
BREAKTHROUGH: Starring the wonderful
Chrissy Metz and Mike Colter, “Breakthrough” is about a young boy who falls through an icy lake and lies near death as his mother refuses to give up. A much better faith-based film than movies like “God’s Not Dead” and “Unplanned,” this feels more like a real story instead of thinly disguised propaganda. Odem Theater Pub, Sisters Movie House
CAPTAIN MARVEL: The 21st installment
of the Marvel Cinematic Universe is another charming and action-packed ride. Since this is an origin story, the film can be a bit formulaic at times, but the chemistry of Sam Jackson and Brie Larson is delightful enough to keep things light. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX
DIANE: Mary Kay Place has been a delightful
presence on stage and screen for decades and now she finally has a starring role in this powerful little film from master documentarian Kent Jones. This one will surprise you. Odem Theater Pub
DUMBO: Arguably, Tim Burton hasn’t made a
great movie since 1999’s “Sleepy Hollow,” so it’s easy not to expect much from his “Dumbo” adaptation. Disney’s live-action remakes have been pretty solid, though, so who knows? Either way, it will make a billion dollars and everyone will go home happy. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX,
FARGO: One of the best films of all time. A pregnant police chief vs a few genuine crooks with career best work from William H. Macy and, arguably, Frances McDormand. If you haven’t seen it…shame on you. Stop reading this and go now. Odem Theater Pub GLORIA BELL: Julianne Moore gives one of her finest performances as a woman who finds love at a time where she was searching for anything but something serious. A surprising and heartfelt little movie. Odem Theater Pub HAIL SATAN?: A hilarious and at times
profound look at the new, much-lesscreepy Satanic Church as they advocate for religious freedom and a few other pretty important things. The perfect antidote to Satanic Panic and a very smart look at a taboo subject. Tin Pan Theater
HER SMELL: Writer/Director Alex Ross Perry has spent most of his brilliant career dissecting the lives of unpleasant white people and, as wonderful as “Listen Up, Philip” and “Queen of Earth” are, “Her Smell” is his masterpiece. Elisabeth Ross is a genius. Tin Pan Theater
LONG SHOT: While on the surface this looks
like another “Seth Rogan Dates Someone Prettier Than Him” movie, director Jonathan Levine (“The Wackness”) is a filmmaker who usually avoids the genre’s cliches. Plus, Charlize Theron is an inter)national treasure. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House
MARY MAGDALENE: A film that portrays
Mary Magdalene as an almost-revolutionary and fiercely dedicated apostle. For those not interested in the story, the film is worth watching just to see the always underrated Rooney Mara as Mary and a deeply committed Joaquin Phoenix as Jesus. Sisters Movie House
MISSING LINK: From the geniuses at the
Portland-based animation studio Laika comes another delightful animated adventure that probably won’t make as much money as it should. Going to see this movie could literally help keep Laika alive after their last couple soft box office grosses. Odem Theater Pub
PENGUINS: This Disney Nature documentary
follows a penguin named Steve as he finds love, has babies and navigates a harsh and deadly landscape. A genuinely wonderful experience for nature lovers and anyone in the mood for a remarkable story of a brave little penguin. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX
PET SEMETARY: We’re in the middle of another spate of film versions of Stephen King classics, and as long as they retain the quality of this and 2017’s “It,” then I think we’ll be OK. This remake changes the entire ending of the story, dare I say, for the better? It’s scarier, that’s for sure. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX SHAZAM!: Imagine the plot of “Big” but
Tom Hanks could fly and shoot electricity from himself and you basically have “Shazam!” DC films is on a roll after finally figuring out that superhero movies are better when they’re fun. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX,Odem Theater Pub
TEEN SPIRIT: While the film tells a tale we’ve seen many times before, the central performance from Elle Fanning is astounding in this look at what makes a modern Cinderella story. Surprisingly delightful. Sisters Movie House
THE MUSTANG: Matthias Schoenaerts and Connie Britton star in this powerful drama about a convict participating in a program to train wild mustangs. This one’s guaranteed to bring tears to even the most hardened of viewers. Odem Theater Pub THE INTRUDER: Dennis Quaid as a creepy
stalker is something I’ve always wanted to see and something I’m sure Meg Ryan is ready to forget. Ahhh, just kidding. I’m sure Dennis is nowhere near as insane as his brother Randy. Seriously though, this movie looks like a lot of fun. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX
HOTEL MUMBAI: An intense and nail-biting recreation of the terrorist attack against the Taj hotel in Mumbai. Heart pounding and deeply unsettling, “Hotel Mumbai” is very tough to watch. Odem Theater Pub
UGLYDOLLS: Now, I’m not saying this movie looks like a soulless marketing tie-in to the Uglydolls stuffed toys, but it really kinda does. At the same time, if the film has a message for children that says they don’t have to feel bad about their third eye or vestigial tail, then more power to this cynical cross-promotion. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Redmond Cinema
LITTLE: A ruthless businesswoman wakes
US: Jordan Peele’s sophomore effort after 2017’s
up as her 13-year-old self in this throwback comedy to the body-swapping comedies of the ‘60s and ‘70s. What’s really exciting here is the cast featuring Marsai Martin from “Black-ish” and the incomparable Issa Rae, Regina Hall and Tracee Ellis Ross. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX
instant classic, “Get Out,” manages to defy easy categorization. “Us” is at times a deeply disturbing horror flick, a biting piece of social commentary and a disgruntled satire on the United States’ current uncrossable political divide. No matter what you choose to take away from it, “Us” is one hell of a movie. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

In Pod We Trust: Since we’re still celebrating the awesomeness that is the culmination of Marvel’s “Infinity Saga” with “Endgame,” now’s the perfect time to get down with “Women of Marvel.” Hosts
Sana Amanat and Judy Stephens not only both work for Marvel, but they dish on some serious inside baseball when it comes to female representation in comic book iconography. Hearing them break down the importance of Sue Storm, Janet Van Dyne and Jean Grey might change the way you view current iterations of the characters. If there are two things I love deeply, it’s drinking responsibly and solving crimes, so the podcast, “Drunk Women Solving Crime,” basically scratches all of my very specific itches. Hannah George, Taylor Glenn and Catie Wilkins spend each episode doing just that: getting drunk and trying to figure out unsolved murders and other less-serious crimes. The show only gets funnier and funnier, and now is a perfect time to check it out. If you’re feeling bored and possibly hungry, I have a podcast now because all courtesy of Netflix

me reticent to talk about any of the other things I like, since God obviously hates me, but just like Daredevil, I’m the man without fear. “Extremely Wicked Shockingly Evil and Vile” is a fun (yes fun!) look at the serial killer Ted Bundy, but the real find here is the absolutely skin-crawling performance from Zac Efron as the megacreepy Bundy. Efron uses every bit of his handsome-ass charisma to make Bundy a bogeyman for the ages. The South Korean slow-burn thriller, um, “Burning” is the best movie out of SK last year and a haunting and visceral film that will stick to your brain for weeks to come. You’ll feel every second of its 148-minute runtime, but it’s one of those movies that fundamentally changes how you view cinema forever. Not to overhype it or anything. Photo Courtesy of HBO
The Last of the Starks By Jared Rasic
SPOILERS! he icy fog has cleared. The dead will be burned and our characters have a moment to mourn before preparations for the next battle must begin. They have a chance to feast, to laugh and to finally be legitimized in the eyes of their peers. No more bastards anymore. Arya Stark is the Hero of Winterfell, Jon already flirts with being a legend and Dany looks on with barely disguised envy. Tyrion, Brienne, Pod and Jaime play “Never Have I Ever” until too much unsaid gets spilled across the table. Love is declared, long awaited sex is had. Dany is desperate for Jon to forget his parentage but it’s unsure whether it’s because of her desire for her nephew or the throne. None of this really

matters until Cersei Lannister’s head is removed and someone mildly less despotic sits on the pointy iron seat. This week’s episode is mostly focused on setting the table for the final few hours of the series, with all the important folks headed toward their final positions. Jon makes a few extraordinarily poor choices before everything goes to hell in a terribly inconvenient naval battle. Dany has her foot on the line and she’s about to step over it, ready to murder everyone in King’s Landing to get her hands on Cersei (who is now a sneering and completely evil cartoon villain with no shades of Grey( joy). I’m looking forward to the books again since I know so much of the rushed character choices will make more sense when

as it been a month already? Have you missed me as much as I missed you?? Awww, that’s sweet. Anyway, it’s been a rough 30 days since last we spoke, what with “Avengers: Endgame” stomping our hearts into Ant-Man sized pieces and “Game of Thrones” progressively feeling like the world’s deadliest game of musical chairs. It’s hard out here for a nerd. Since I like media that makes me feel terrible, I’m having a great time. With all that said, here are a few things that might make your heart feel good in the month of May.
Sansa ain’t playin' anymore.
we get POV chapters of Jaime, Bran, Jon, Dany and Cersei. This is the first time where it felt to me like Benioff and Weiss are ending the show here because they’re ready to move on, not because the story was reaching its proper conclusion.
It’s all very fun to watch and deliciously written—but imagine how much better this would be with more than just a couple episodes of build-up and only two episodes left. Still, it’s better than most other things.

Take a trip back in time with the Ford Tri-Motor airplane By Isaac Biehl EAA Media

35 VOLUME 23 ISSUE 19 / MAY 9, 2019 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY
O
ver Mother’s Day weekend, from May 9 to 12, a little piece of history will be flying over the skies of Bend and Central Oregon: A Ford Tri-Motor Airplane. The Tri-Motor was built back in 1928 as one of the original faces of commercial airliners. “It was the first airplane built to hold people and not mail,” Dale Anderson, president of Bend’s Experimental Aircraft Association, the High Desert Flyers, stated in a release. “The original airlines, the first airlines, almost all of them started with this airplane.” Many people are aware of what Henry Ford did for the automobile industry, but his work in the 1920s with these planes was another innovative feat. The planes were 50 feet long and 74 feet wide—which prompted people to call them the “Tin Goose.” Ford only built 199 Tri-Motors in total. Eight of them remain air-worthy in 2019. Two fly fulltime as tour planes. The model coming to the Bend Municipal Airport is the Tri-Motor 5-AT-B, which is serial No. 8. Pilot Colin Soucy tells me they call this one “Big Ford,” since it’s bigger than the other Ford model that flies regularly and holds 10 people. The first flight for this particular model was on Dec. 1, 1928. Eventually it was sold to the Transcontinental Air Transport in January of 1929, which sparked the initial birth of westbound transcontinental commercial flights from New York to Los Angeles. While it definitely wasn’t the flight experience we’re accustomed to today, it paved the early airways for what commercial flying could be— and just how fast it could be done. “A transcontinental trip in the Tri-Motor took 48 hours, a vast improvement in time over other travel in that
Flight attendants originally passed out cotton balls for passengers’ ears because of the noise. The planes even had an indoor toilet.
era,” said Anderson. “The trip entailed several stops for fuel, and at night, the passengers were transferred to train sleeper cars. They would re-board the Tri-Motor each morning.” While a 48-hour flight with stops sounds rough today, Soucy recalls that at that time, if someone rode the train the whole way on a transcontinental trip, it would take 10 whole days compared to the two days by plane. Built with three engines—each with 450 horsepower—Ford wanted
to make sure that if there was a problem with an engine, the plane could still fly using the others. The decision to build the planes with all metal was a very important move, as well. Back then, most little flyers were built out of wood and would catch on fire—so the switch to aluminum is what made the Tri-Motors so sturdy and able to stand the test of time. Soucy has been flying planes for 51 years (he started when he was 13) and Tri-Motors for 27. He says the planes
travel at a cool 90 mph and at 1,000 feet in the air—which he says is perfect for sightseeing. “They have these big glass-framed windows on both sides,” says Soucy. “I tell people it’s like the sights and sounds of the 1920s.” Fly On The Ford

A family driven real estate team that benefits you:
Earth Advantage
Advancing building standards to benefit the whole its start in 2005, Earth Advantage has certified over 17,000 single family homes and 19,000 multi-family units. Its goal is to get every builder in the Northwest building to zero energy-ready standards by 2030. In our local communities we are commonly seeing more Earth Advantage-Certified homes with a few builders who have embraced this higher standard of home production. Besides lessening our carbon footprint and reducing emissions, these green building methods have numerous benefits. These homes require less energy to operate by using highly efficient equipment and increased insulation. They’re healthy to live in and contain fewer products that off-gas harmful chemicals and also incorporate a ventilation and filtration system to reduce airborne contaminants, which means a decline in allergies, asthma attacks and other more serious health issues. Development guidelines protect the trees and land as well as curb the negative impact on and around the building site. Homes sites are centrally and conveniently located to reduce the need for undue transportation. The materials used are manufactured locally, environmentally responsible and durable. With water shortages a major concern in the 21st century, these homes use water-wise technologies to address water conservation needs. Overall, these homes offer a lower cost of ownership from the day you move in, saving people money on everything from monthly utility bills to long-term maintenance costs. An Earth Advantage-certified home is simply more comfortable and healthy for you, substantially better for the all-around environment and an affordable and financially wise investment.

ver the years of touring homes new and old, my focus has evolved from noticing the cosmetic appeal, a functional layout or dazzling finishes to now also paying attention to building practices, efficiency in design or working systems and environmentally responsible products. With my extensive background in construction, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m well versed in the standard building practices and codes. These traditional methods havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t changed very much in decades and they all add up to a lot of waste, unhealthy materials and extremely inefficient homes. In the Pacific Northwest, residential homesâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;single and multi-familyâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;use about 20 percent of all energy consumed. Simply reducing energy consumption is one of the easiest ways to reduce our carbon dioxide emissions. By using current technology and adopting new practices, we could reduce home energy usage by 65 percent by the year 2030. It is due time to make the shift toward implementing a higher standard of practice into new homebuilding, and there are organizations out there making this easier to achieve and more understandable for builders and homeowners. Earth Advantage is a Portland-based nonprofit organization that supports and educates homeowners, architects and contractors during the building and certification process. They provide guidance, documentation, verification and communication with the United States Green Building Council, also referred to as USGBC, in order to ensure a project completes certification. Levels of certification vary from simply Earth Advantage, Silver, Gold, Platinum, and the ultimate goal: Net Zero. Since

SCIENCE ADVICE GODDESS Pimp My Rite
My boyfriend dumped me and moved out of our place. I’m on the lease and can’t afford to break it, but it still feels like “our place,” and that’s making it hard to move on. My hippie friend said I should burn sage or light a candle and do a “letting go” meditation. Umm, okay. Can you please explain how rituals like this are bogus and unscientific so I can get her off my back? —Annoyed

As I see it, lingering emotional distress like yours requires serious intervention—like sacrificing a goat on the coffee table. (Possibly two, if one doesn’t get ‘er done.) Just kidding about the goats—but only because you’d have to hire crime scene cleaners afterward, which could get seriously pricey. Research by Harvard Business School’s Michael I. Norton, among others, actually finds that rituals—symbolic activities we do with some goal in mind—seem to help us feel better: less negative, less anxious, and more in control. Amazingly, this is even true for ritual-doers who don’t believe in the rituals -- who think they’re idiotic, embarrassing, and pointless. Annoyingly, researchers aren’t quite sure why rituals have this effect on us. My guess is that we confuse the real with the symbolic. Research by cognitive neuroscientist Michael Gazzaniga suggests our mind is a master spin doctor, creating stories about our behavior that make us look consistent, rational, and smart. And no sooner does it come up with those stories than it turns right around and believes them. In short, our mind is under the impression that we’re not stupid—that if we do something, we must have a good reason. In other words, your friend is on to something—and you might use this to get her onto another thing: a ladder in your living room. I suggest a painting ritual—painting over your old life (in stylin’ new hues, of course) to transform the house you shared with your ex into a colorful new home of your own. Per the research on ritual, ceremony would be an essential part of this -including explicitly calling what you’re doing a “ritual” and saying a few words, the way you would at a funeral. Incorporate a ceremonial tearing-up of a photo of the two of you together, and have your friends chant, “Out, out, Steve! You are no longer welcome here!” Then have everybody accompany you to toss the pieces into the dumpster.
Admittedly, this ritual will probably seem seriously silly while you’re doing it, but you can just choose to buy into it and have a good time. While you’re at it, give your friend some props. She was on the right track in helping you rid your home of the Ghost of Boyfriend Past—despite suggesting burning a small bunch of cooking herbs when it probably seemed nothing short of arson would do the job.
Tents Situation I read in Bon Appetit about this woman who takes all her dates to Olive Garden to see whether they judge her when she pockets all the leftover breadAmy Alkon sticks. Okay, whatever. But what I wanna see is whether somebody’s a good person. What kind of dates do you suggest for determining a potential boyfriend’s character and values? —Concerned Woman People often say you can discover a person’s true character from how they treat the waiter. And sure, rudeness to a waiter is a red flag, but it isn’t like we easily identify the sociopaths among us because they summon the server referee-style, by blowing a whistle. It helps to consider the roots of good behavior—moral behavior, that is: why people are good to other people. Evolutionary cognitive scientists Dan Sperber and Nicolas Baumard explain that “People may behave morally because they intrinsically value doing so—a genuine moral reason—or in order to gain the approval of others.” But there’s a complication: We all care about our reputation and doing things that put us in the best light, which is to say both the worst people and the best people behave better when they know they’re being watched. A person’s true character will come out over time. But there’s a way to speed up the dirtbag detection process: observe a person’s behavior under harsh conditions. In other words, consider getting kidnapped and held hostage together by the Albanian mob—or, if that’s a little impractical for you, go camping or even just hike some challenging trail. When the chips are down (like if you get injured), that’s when you see: Is he there for you, or is he the type to leave you to die in the wilderness? “I’d totally make a tourniquet for you, but this is a $400 Burberry shirt. Good luck!”

ASTROLOGY By Rob Brezsny
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Here’s a message from author Susan J. Elliott: “This is not your week to run the Universe. Next week is not looking so good either.” Now here’s a message from me: Elliott’s revelation is very good news! Since you won’t have to worry about trying to manage and fine-tune the Universe, you can focus all your efforts on your own self-care. And the coming weeks will be a favorable time to do just that. You’re due to dramatically upgrade your understanding of what you need to feel healthy and happy, and then take the appropriate measures to put your new insights into action. CANCER (June 21-July 22): The next three weeks will be an excellent time to serve as your own visionary prophet and dynamic fortune-teller. The predictions and conjectures you make about your future destiny will have an 85-percent likelihood of being accurate. They will also be relatively free of fear and worries. So I urge you to give your imagination permission to engage in fun fantasies about what’s ahead for you. Be daringly optimistic and exuberantly hopeful and brazenly self-celebratory.
statements are half-true. The other half of the truth is that desire can also be a profoundly healing and rejuvenating force, and for the same reasons: it rearranges what we think we want, alters plans, and unleashes unthought-of possibilities. How does all this relate to you? From what I can tell, you are now on the cusp of desire’s two overlapping powers. What happens next could be upsetting or healing, disorienting or rejuvenating. If you’d like to emphasize the healing and rejuvenating, I suggest you treat desire as a sacred gift and a blessing.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): “So much of what we learn about love is taught by people who never really loved us.” My Sagittarian friend Ellen made that sad observation. Is it true for you? Ellen added the following thoughts: so much of what we learn about love is taught by people who were too narcissistic or wounded to be able to love very well; and by people who didn’t have many listening skills and therefore didn’t know enough about us to love us for who we really are; and by people who love themselves poorly and so of course find it hard to love anyone else. Is any of this applicable to what you have experienced, Sagittarius? If so, here’s an antidote that I think you’ll find effective during the next seven weeks: identify the people who have loved you well and the people who might love you well in the future—and then vow to learn all you can from them.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Capricorn
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Leo poet Stanley Kunitz told his students, “You must be very careful not to deprive the poem of its wild origin.” That’s useful advice for anyone who spawns anything, not just poets. There’s something unruly and unpredictable about every creative idea or fresh perspective that rises up in us. Do you remember when you first felt the urge to look for a new job or move to a new city or search for a new kind of relationship? Wildness was there at the inception. And you needed to stay in touch with the wildness so as to follow through with practical action. That’s what I encourage you to do now. Reconnect with the wild origins of the important changes you’re nurturing. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): I have no complaints about the measures you’ve taken recently to push past unnecessary limits and to break outworn taboos. In fact, I celebrate them. Keep going! You’ll be better off without those decaying constraints. Soon you’ll begin using all the energy you have liberated and the spaciousness you have made available. But I do have one concern: I wonder if part of you is worried that you have been too bold and have gone too far. To that part of you I say: No! You haven’t been too bold. You haven’t gone too far.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): “Dreamt of a past that frees its prisoners.” So wrote Meena Alexander in her poem “Question Time.” I’d love for you to have that experience in the coming weeks. I’d love for you be released from the karma of your history so that you no longer have to repeat old patterns or feel weighed down by what happened to you once upon a time. I’d love for you to no longer have to answer to decayed traditions and outmoded commitments and lost causes. I’d love for you to escape the pull of memories that tend to drag you back toward things that can’t be changed and don’t matter any more. SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): “Desire is a profoundly upsetting force,” writes author Elspeth Probyn. “It may totally rearrange what we think we want. Desire skews plans and sets forth unthought-of possibilities.” In my opinion, Probyn’s
fantasy novelist Laini Taylor creates imaginary worlds where heroines use magic and wiles to follow their bliss while wrangling with gods and rascals. In describing her writing process, she says, “Like a magpie, I am a scavenger of shiny things: fairy tales, dead languages, weird folk beliefs, and fascinating religions.” She adds, “I have plundered tidbits of history and lore to build something new, using only the parts that light my mind on fire.” I encourage you to adopt her strategies for your own use in the coming weeks. Be alert for gleaming goodies and tricky delicacies and alluring treats. Use them to create new experiences that thrill your imagination. I believe the coming weeks will be an excellent time to use your magic and wiles to follow your bliss while wrangling with gods and rascals.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): “I was always asking for the specific thing that wasn’t mine,” wrote poet Joanne Kyger. “I wanted a haven that wasn’t my own.” If there is any part of you that resonates with that defeatist perspective, Aquarius, now is an excellent time to begin outgrowing or transforming it. I guarantee you that you’ll have the potency you need to retrain yourself: so that you will more and more ask for specific things that can potentially be yours; so that you will more and more want a haven that can be your own. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): I’m not a fan of nagging. I don’t like to be nagged and I scrupulously avoid nagging others. And yet now I will break my own rules so as to provide you with your most accurate and helpful horoscope. According to my analysis of the astrological omens, you aren’t likely to get what you truly need and deserve in the coming days unless you engage in some polite, diplomatic nagging. So see what you can do to employ nagging as a graceful, even charming art. For best results, infuse it with humor and playfulness. ARIES (March 21-April 19): Time to shake things up! In the next three weeks, I invite you to try at least three of the following experiments. 1. See unusual sights in familiar situations. 2. Seek out new music that both calms you and excites you. 3. Get an inspiring statue or image of a favorite deity or hero. 4. Ask for a message from the person you will be three years from now. 5. Use your hands and tongue in ways you don’t usually use them. 6. Go in quest of a cathartic release that purges frustration and rouses holy passion. 7. Locate the sweet spot where deep feeling and deep thinking overlap.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): According to science writer Sarah Zielinski in Smithsonian magazine, fireflies produce the most efficient light on planet Earth. Nearly 100 percent of the energy produced by the chemical reaction inside the insect’s body is emitted as a brilliant glow. With that in mind, I propose that you regard the firefly as your spirit creature in the coming weeks. According to my reading of the astrological omens, you, too, will be a dynamic and proficient generator of luminosity. For best results, don’t tone down your brilliance, even if it illuminates shadows people are trying to hide.

Is the county applying a morality test to land-use decisions? By Jeremy Dickman
W
hile analyzing Mckenzie Canyon Farms’ site plan for a proposed marijuana production and processing facility in northern Deschutes County on May 1, Commissioner Patti Adair’s face reflected great concern. The specific discussion was with regard to noise created by the (county-mandated) 16 odor control fans constructed at the site. “Which way is the wind blowing there?” asked Adair, seemingly unaware of the typically unpredictable nature of wind. “I’m not sure about this one,” Chair Phil Henderson said pensively, referring to an engineer’s report on the devices’ noise output. “Sixteen fans is a lot.” Pushed along mainly by the skepticisms of Henderson and Adair, the Board spent 10 to 20 minutes analyzing the map, and scrutinizing an expert’s analysis of the noise output of the specific machines. They were dangerously close to approving an application for yet another marijuana grow. Try as they might to pin down a potentially fatal flaw, they were close to coming up empty. Their renewed vigor with respect to stopping the evils of the devil’s lettuce was motivated in no small part by the discussions earlier in the meeting. Representatives from Deschutes County Health Services provided testimony regarding addiction, treatment and prevention with respect to marijuana use in the County. Dr. Will Berry and Karen Tomminga, representing Deschutes County’s Behavioral Health department, which deals with individual addiction and recovery issues, testified about their experience with the effects of marijuana on patients. Berry indicated concerns with increased anxiety among marijuana users, along with potential exacerbation of symptoms related to psychosis for those patients with pre-existing risk factors for schizophrenia and other similar mental illnesses. Tomminga indicated that, while alcohol is still the number one cause for treatment at Deschutes County Behavior Health, marijuana is number two, with roughly 25 percent of patients citing marijuana as the reason for admission to treatment. Adair was not satisfied with this lukewarm indictment of marijuana. “According to my research from the book ‘Tell your Children,’” Adair said, “they actually said there was a violence component to the numbers if you looked at the state where marijuana is legalized, that there is more violence in the users.” “I have not seen that,” replied Tomminga flatly. Adair kept pressing: “The [authors of the book) studied numbers for California, Alaska, Oregon… the facts from
‘Tell Your Children’ is that it is really harmful to the developing brain.” “I agree with that,” Tomminga replied. Adair was citing the book “Tell Your Children: The Truth About Marijuana, Mental Illness and Violence,” written by Alex Berenson. The book has been widely maligned by Ivy League-educated medical doctors and other mental health experts as an exercise in cherry-picking data to reinforce a previously held view that marijuana causes psychosis, which causes violence. In fact, “Tell Your Children” was the original working title for the 1936 film “Reefer Madness,” legendary for its ridiculous depiction of weed-crazed murderers wreaking havoc. Berenson’s book is attempting to unearth this debunked trope. Adair, feeling encouraged by Tomminga’s assent about marijuana being problematic for minors, spiked the football. “What is it, we have 8 million people getting stoned on a daily basis in this country? Though they’re not addicted?” Berry attempted to politely push back. “In my opinion the current state of the research linking marijuana use with violence … is to be decided,” he said. “It’s multi-factorial.” Berry further specified that psychosis, including schizophrenia, rarely results in violent actions by the afflicted, and in fact a person suffering from psychosis is far more likely to be a victim of violence. Reefer Madness Board members, having failed to establish that potheads tend to chop up family members and stab puppies, then attempted to outflank the research by arguing the reverse. “It’s always been true since I was in high school,” Henderson said, “that the effects [of marijuana] were ... demotivating and deincentivizing [sic] kids.” Berry replied that it was ultimately up to parents to monitor their own children. As for the fate of Mckenzie Canyon Farms, it may come down to the sins of a father. One of the co-investors in the grow has a father who may face charges for an alleged illegal marijuana grow near La Pine. Henderson made it clear he felt any connection with people facing “investigation for a major crime” would compel him to vote “no” on the basis of “health, safety overall land-use issue.” Tony DeBone, the last reasonable commissioner with respect to marijuana grows, pushed back. “That is not the province of this board,” he said. Deliberations on this application were scheduled to continue until May 8.
