EDITOR’S NOTE:

For parents in the Bend-La Pine Schools district, it’s been a week of news we didn’t necessarily want to hear. One threat. Two threats. A third hoax threat at a local school. Local news outlets have been reporting the facts throughout the week—the who, what, when, where and how that journalists seek—but on our Opinion page, we have an opportunity to look more at the “why.” While I want to underline that we can never fully understand another’s emotions and reasons for doing something, looking into the research on the possible correlation between attention-seeking behavior and a desire for true human connection struck me hard. Have I been guilty of connecting with friends and family only through digital channels? Yes. Have I allowed my child to drift into near-constant social media time, offering me a “break” from parenting? Yes, probably. But in researching that need for connection, I feel empowered to be better, both in family life and in how we connect with readers here at the Source Weekly. Gaining that insight will have its implications at home—but it’s also going to have ones here at our newspaper. Stay tuned as we make moves toward more personal, faceto-face connection between us and you, in a number of ways, in the coming weeks and beyond. —Nicole Vulcan

Two Threats and a Copycat: A week of school threats at Bend-La Pine Schools

e were quite literally on the phone with officials from Bend Police and BendLa Pine Schools on Monday, discussing two recent threats toward local schools, when a School Resource Deputy with the Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office began an investigation at a third school in the district. Three prospective threats, inside a week. Officials from Bend PD and BLPS explained that the threats toward Bend Senior High School and Cascade Middle School were reported to law enforcement after someone saw threatening language posted online. They were pleased at seeing the “see something, say something” culture—in which students, staff and community members are encouraged to report any potential threats they see or hear— take root and help keep students in the community safe against school violence. Throughout the week, some parents had expressed concern that they hadn’t been informed of the potential threats at their students’ schools until after the investigation was complete. BLPS Director of Safety and Communication Julianne Repman said they’d found that some parents had not signed up for—or had blocked the district’s communication app, Synergy—and didn’t receive the notification, adding that local law enforcement and the district work to substantiate any claims before informing students and families. In the interest of not creating panic, the district—or cops—won’t send out a notification until they find a threat to be credible, she said. While it’s concerning not to hear about a potential threat at your child’s school until after the situation has been diffused, we can understand the desire not to create undue panic. When officials were asked if they saw any potential downside to this “see something, say something” culture, they cited the potential for “copycat” behavior, in which people might file false reports or initiate their own threats, after seeing others do so. And almost like clockwork, that was already playing out. During our conversation, the school resource officer was investigating the possibility of a threat involving a firearm against Three Rivers School, reported by a 14-year-old male student. The student made up the story about a threat of violence, the Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office reported Tuesday. In a society in which school shootings are

far more prevalent than they ever should be, we can take comfort today that none of these three incidents resulted in actual violence at local schools. In the case of the Bend High threat, police arrested a 21-year-old man and seized a gun. In the case of the threat against Cascade Middle School, the 12-year-old who Bend Police say made the threats through an Xbox gaming platform has now been charged with Disorderly Conduct. In the Three Rivers threat, the boy was charged with Disorderly Conduct and Initiating a False Report. If this is a week in the life of local schools and law enforcement, it’s a week no one wants to repeat. Some might see these actions as attention-seeking behavior, whether on the part of people making threats, or on the part of people who seemingly want to be seen as a hero by reporting a false threat. Scholars seeking answers to the advent of school violence point to a possible correlation between disruptive behavior and the lack of nurturing relationships. The perpetrators of two of the recent threats made their threats through online channels; one on social media, another through a gaming platform. These are the places many of us turn for connection, but as we continue our evolution as a digital society, many are finding that it doesn’t replace the human connection. A June 2019 headline from NBC News might help describe it: “A child’s bad behavior isn’t ‘attention seeking.’ She’s seeking a relationship.” School officials are also quick to point out that many threats found online aren’t reported to law enforcement as quickly as they could be. People are turning to online channels for that connection, and even there, their potentially serious threats are going unheeded or are only circling through posts, chats and comments instead of going to cops. School officials want to remind people to report what they see, and not to assume someone else has done so. The root causes here are complicated and unique to each situation, but what appears to unite them is a call for connection. In today’s society, a “see something, say something” ethos is necessary to help prevent violence. But also crucial is examining each of our own methods of creating connections among family, friends and community members, helping ensure school violence—or the threats of it— aren’t the way people get heard.

GUEST OPINION

On Oct. 4, a long awaited proposal from eight irrigation districts and the City of Prineville called a Habitat Conservation Plan (Plan) will be made public. The Plan, and an accompanying draft Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) will outline and analyze the actions that the irrigation districts propose to take in return for 30 years of immunity under the Endangered Species Act for killing and harming imperiled species. Much of the carnage results from the districts using the Upper Deschutes as an irrigation ditch. The Plan is a big deal for the Deschutes Basin, giving the districts a get out of jail free card for 30 years. Using a crystal ball, here’s what to expect from the Plan. After spending millions of public dollars, a lot of talk and posturing about collaboration, almost a decade of study and numerous reports, the districts will propose and the Feds will permit the districts to do much less than is biologically necessary and imminently feasible to restore the health of the Upper Deschutes and Crooked Rivers. This will be done with the active blessing of the Trump Administration, an administration genuinely hostile to river and species health, sustainability and anything that can’t be monetized for private gain. The Plan and the Feds will walk back recent science found in federal documents that indicates that higher winter streamflows are needed more quickly on the Upper Deschutes than the Plan will propose. The Plan will allow the districts to do nothing to improve Upper Deschutes winter flows for five more years, do essentially what they can already do now for years six through 10 and reach a target winter flow of 400 cubic feet per second by year 30 (that’s 2049), after many of us are dead and gone. Recent federal science indicated at least 600 cfs is needed in the winter. The Upper Deschutes is already dying. The crystal ball suggests it won’t last on life support for three more decades. While the crystal ball suggests that the Plan may not prescribe any specific approach to conserving water to help restore the Upper Deschutes, the districts will continue to rely on taxpayer money for canal piping projects, in part further subsidizing wasteful irrigation

@sourceweekly

in the Central Oregon Irrigation District. Market tools that could bump up winter flows right now, though less expensive and imminently feasible, will not be required and may not be widely used at all. They should be. Meanwhile, on the Crooked, Trump’s Bureau of Reclamation refuses to implement the bipartisan 2014 Crooked River Act passed by Congress. Under the Act, water released for fish from Bowman Dam should be protected downstream to Lake Billy Chinook. Despite rhetoric about collaboration, the irrigators are busy playing Trump cards with the higher ups in Reclamation to frustrate implementation of this bipartisan Act. Two of the West’s most feasible river restoration opportunities sit right here in Central Oregon. There is, in general terms, enough water to meet reasonable needs in the basin IF that water is used and allocated wisely. Currently it is not. Unfortunately, despite this massive, practicable opportunity—and massive influx of taxpayer money to subsidize private interests (over $85 million and counting)—the crystal ball is suggesting that the old hydrology of the West (and modern politics) continues to trump science in the Deschutes Basin. Water flows uphill to money. —John DeVoe, Executive Director of WaterWatch of Oregon

tractors—has virtually no measurable impact on the temperature of the planet. Finnish scientists spearheaded the research, releasing a paper entitled, “No Experimental Evidence for the Significant Anthropogenic Climate Change.” The paper explains that IPCC analysis of global temperatures suffers from a glaring error —namely, failure to account for “influences of low cloud cover” and how it impacts global temperatures. Natural variations in low cloud cover, which are strongly influenced by cosmic radiation’s ability to penetrate Earth’s atmosphere due to variations in the strength of our planet’s magnetosphere, account for nearly all changes in global temperature, the researchers explain. —Scott Weber

Getting Involved with Climate Two conferences in Bend target conservation, energy By Hilary Corrigan

WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / SEPTEMBER 26, 2019 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

emonstrations like the recent Global Climate Strike can mark a first step toward system-wide change. The next steps can be a little less clear. In Bend, two upcoming climate-related conferences offer various paths and ideas for those who want to get involved. Surfrider Foundation’s Newport chapter—along with Central Oregon Community College’s Outdoor Leadership Program, The Environmental Center and Latino Outdoors—will host the first Central Oregon Conservation Summit in Bend this weekend. The all-day event Saturday, Sept. 28 at COCC’s Willie Hall will feature panels on climate change, tourism, conflicts among outdoor users and other topics. On Sunday, participants will meet at Miller’s Landing Park in Bend to carpool for a cleanup at Sparks Lake, then return to the park for a closing barbecue. The summit costs $35 and includes gifts and food. Proceeds will benefit the Oregon Lakes Association and its work researching algae blooms. “A lot of people don’t know how to get involved,” said Rane Johnson-Stempson, membership chair of the Surfrider Foundation’s Newport chapter, that includes Bend. “Here is how you can get involved.” Johnson-Stempson expects the summit, held on National Public Lands Day, to help average people learn about climate change, wildfires, wildlife, trail and outdoor issues, local planning efforts, research, projects and challenges— for instance, why federal agencies take steps like implementing a permit system for wilderness areas. Lara Jansen, a researcher with Portland State University’s Environmental Science and Management, will speak on

a panel about user conflict in the outdoors. Jansen plans to talk about ways outdoor users can help—including citizen science efforts and apps—on some of the environmental concerns such as the algae blooms that can sicken people and dogs, the spread of invasive species, dumped trash and the impacts from activities such as camping and boating. Damon Runberg, a regional economist at the Oregon Employment Department, will speak on a panel about responsible tourism. Runberg noted how the growth in tourism aligns with the region’s population growth—so while locals may like to blame tourists, visitors shouldn’t bear all the blame. For instance, locals, as much as visitors, could be crowding parking at Sparks Lake. “We like to point fingers at the other,” Runberg said, but conserving and preserving well-loved resources is everyone’s responsibility. Runberg noted the way the Pacific Northwest and the local region have handled some issues, including funneling people to certain trails and visiting sites; or paving a trail at Bend’s city limits off Haul Road, avoiding harm to wildlife but still letting people easily access the outdoors close to town. Another issue that has come up is the van-life trend of parked vehicles in town—bringing concerns about trash and camping. “That’s sort of a new phenomenon that we didn’t have 10 years ago,” Runberg said. But now is a good time to consider tourism topics, as visitor numbers haven’t risen too high to handle, Runberg noted. And this is a chance for anyone to be heard and give ideas.

“We’re sort of in a great position to take a deep breath,” and plan, he said. Go Clean Energy 2019 Another climate-related conference takes place in Bend Thursday, Oct. 3. Go Clean Energy 2019 marks nonprofit 350 Deschutes’ third event. Diane Hodiak, executive director of 350 Deschutes, expects the event will help people figure out some of the energy, home and vehicle incentives, rebates and other programs they could use—but that can be complicated to work through. Hodiak also expects the event to be a hub where builders, developers, business people and government officials who implement programs and policies can share information. “The conference is very how-to, and we want to help people—make it easy for them,” Hodiak said. Cassie Lacy, sustainability coordinator for the City of Bend, plans to talk about the city’s community climate action plan the City Council could soon adopt. Strategies within that plan aim to help Bend hit its targets for reducing its fossil fuel use. “Completing the plan is definitely very much the beginning of all of this work,” Lacy said, noting that decisions will have to be made about implementing the various strategies. Meeting climate goals will need everyone’s participation, Lacy said, and the conference offers a time to show how. Stephen Aiguier, founder and president of Green Hammer, a Portland firm that focuses on environmentally-friendly building, plans to discuss zero-net energy homes and the savings they show in utility costs. “It’s similar to driving a Prius,” Aiguier said, adding that most people have no idea about the energy score of homes they buy.

Aiguier pointed to the recent climate strike and younger people who want different homes. “I know that there’s an unmet demand,” he said. “The market is changing.” Andrea Breault, senior transit planner with Cascades East Transit, will talk about future transportation options—but is really looking for public feedback on those possibilities. Right now, local leaders are developing a master plan to expand transportation services in Central Oregon. That includes such options as deviating buses from fixed routes for a nearly doorto-door or on-demand service; using a fleet of smaller vehicles for group rides; combining with bike-share, carshare, Uber and Lyft services to help riders reach bus stops and stations; and changing routes where possible so that riders can stay on the same bus. The strategies that wind up in the final plan, expected in summer 2020, could then get grant funding, Breault noted. “We always appreciate public feedback,” Breault said. “Not just those who ride the system, but those who usually don’t ride and why.” Central Oregon Conservation Summit Sat., Sept. 28, all day COCC-Willie Hall Sun., Sept. 29, 8:30am meet at Miller’s Landing Park 55 NW Riverside Blvd., Bend $35, including gifts and food https://newport.surfrider.org/our-work/ central-oregon-conservation-summit-balancing-recreation-conservation/

Bend’s New High School Breaks Ground. What’s Next?

Isaac Biehl

A look at what goes into creating a new school and the next steps in the process

expands beyond the walls of school.” This isn’t Boyd’s first time being involved within the processes of creating new schools, having helped open Pacific Crest Middle School, where he served as principal before joining the new high school team, and another in Happy Valley. He’s aware of what will help the school succeed even in the earliest stages, specifically the fact that the work is done better in teams. Boyd says he’s always seeking out new voices and people who are experts to help develop these ideas. One of the most talked-about topics in the process centers around the school’s identity. The district has a policy for naming new facilities or schools, which involves quite a bit of input from the community—including an online survey and various school gatherings and meetings. In the end, a committee overseeing the identity process will review the suggestions and then take the final three name suggestions to the school board for consideration. The committee will be made up of Bend-La Pine Schools staff, community members and parents. “I am also putting together student focus groups at a couple schools in order to have student voice embedded throughout the process,” adds Boyd. Along with the name, the school mascot and school colors are key areas of interest. Suggestions for these will also be involved within the community input process. “I have mocked up some options for school colors. Actually, there are 36

n Sept. 19, the new high school in Bend officially broke ground in front of an excited crowd of students, parents and community members. Officially the project began last spring, but that doesn’t take away anything from the moment. “The groundbreaking ceremony was always a fun and important opportunity to bring various members of the community together,” says Chris Boyd, who was named principal for the new high school in March. “It’s a celebration of our community’s willingness to invest in our children and future prosperity of our region.” As construction continues on the corner of Knott Road and SE 15th Street, many other things need to happen for the school to be ready. For Boyd, two questions written on his desk offer guidance and inspiration in how to move forward. One reads: “How might we develop the adult behaviors needed to cultivate powerful relationships and relevant learning experiences at our new high school?” The second, while shorter, covers quite a bit of ground: “Who have you included in your design?” “I am currently working with regional partners to create college and career pathways that connect learning outcomes across content areas,” Boyd tells the Source Weekly. “The ultimate goal of the school is to develop a school culture and academic model that prioritizes relevant learning across content areas in order to help students see that learning

common links to technology and design. “At this point, I am looking at ways in which our CTE programs can lead to World of Work or to future areas of study such as architecture, engineering, physical therapy, nursing or health care management—to name just a few,” says Boyd. Another addition to the new high school will be housing the Dual Immersion program—though Boyd says leaders have yet to decide when the program will transition entirely to the new school—and which grade levels the school will service in its first years. While there’s still a long way to go, Boyd is prepared and excited for the upcoming steps. “From opening previous schools, I have learned to be patient and open to the process. There are a lot of decisions that go into the opening of a new school, and they are all important. Thus, it is imperative to slow down and work to make decisions in partnership with individuals that are closest to the impact of the decision,” Boyd says. “If we are going to be a school that prioritizes relationships and relevance, then we have to be intentional about how we cultivate working relationships with each other, with our students, with our families and with our community.”

options that I am taking out to students in the coming weeks,” says Boyd. “The goal is to narrow down options in order to then spend some time developing color combinations that will be used in the actual construction of the school, as well as for athletics and activities. Working on school colors is going to be really fun because I know students are going to have fun playing around with different color options.” As Boyd mentioned, some of these colors will go directly into the school’s design. To get some ideas for what the school could look like, Boyd and members of the school board visited different schools around the Northwest for inspiration. One of the things Boyd is most excited about for Bend’s new high school is the collaborative open spaces that will expand throughout the hallways and commons. He says the school has an open library that acts as the primary hub of the building, where he hopes to see students working together and connecting with each other. Another aspect will be the career-technical education spaces that will serve as showcase classrooms for students to walk by and see every day through glass doors and walls. The CTE programs are still in design, but some areas Boyd mentions he’s looking at are construction trades and a health care academy, both of which would hold

Food waste collection expands as county considers new landﬁll By Hilary Corrigan

hose living in Bend can soon put their leftover food, meat and coffee grounds in with their yard debris for trash pickup—a move that comes as Deschutes County completes a planning process aimed at managing the growing region’s waste. The optional yard debris service through garbage collection by Cascade Disposal and Bend Garbage & Recycling at homes in Bend has long included raw vegetables. It will expand Oct. 1 to take bread, bones and other food waste. The change follows a successful pilot program involving 600 customers, said Susan Baker, municipal manager at Bend Garbage & Recycling, now Republic Services. The current pickup schedule of every other week will continue, along with the current cost of $4.90 per month with a yearly yard debris subscription. Participants can pick up a free 2-gallon kitchen pail at the two companies’ offices in Bend and use it to store scraps that can go into a home’s yard debris cart. The collected material will be processed into compost. “It’s just been a natural progression,” Baker said. It also aligns with ideas in recent county and city plan proposals, she noted. Efforts are underway to target the area’s future trash. The Bend City Council will soon consider a broad climate action plan that includes a section on waste, calling to recover more food waste, develop recycling and composting programs at multi-family homes, and aim a recycling program at tourists. Deschutes County is currently considering a big draft plan of its own,

meant as a roadmap for the next 20 years of managing the region’s waste. County commissioners were expected to vote on it last week but are continuing to review it. The Deschutes County Solid Waste Management Plan reviews collection, disposal, recycling, and waste reduction. It also gives recommendations and prioritizes getting a new disposal system in place in the county—with the expectation that Knott Landfill Recycling and Transfer Facility in Bend will reach capacity within 10 years.

The department operates four rural transfer stations and the county landfill, Knott Landfill. Bend, Redmond, Sisters and La Pine provide collections services in their jurisdictions through four private companies with franchise agreements. Each jurisdiction sets the service standards and rates. The landfill takes all waste from franchise collection companies and transfer stations that can’t be recycled. Over about the past year and a half, the Department of Solid Waste, a retained consultant team and an

The plan recommends a mix of strategies that help to first reduce waste, then reuse and recycle materials, compost, recover energy, and finally, dispose of waste in landfills. Diverting waste from the landfill is key. The plan notes that the landfill accepted more than 180,000 tons of waste per year over the past two years. In 2017 and 2018, about 33% of the county’s waste was diverted from the landfill. That’s less than the recovery goal of 45% by 2025 that the state set for Deschutes County—a target meant

DESCHUTES COUNTY - SOLID WASTE FACTS In 2016 households and businesses generated 240,800 tons of garbage; with an estimated population of 181,000 people that averages to about 2,700 pounds per person each year. This breaks down to:

By 2030 it is estimated the amount of waste generated in the County will be almost 300,000 tons per year. Source: Deschutes County

In Oregon, counties and cities must provide services to manage waste. Deschutes County does this through its Department of Solid Waste that oversees services and operates facilities. Revenue to operate the system comes through fees that customers pay, rather than general tax revenue.

advisory committee of county-appointed members—representatives of waste haulers, cities and environment and community organizations—have worked to craft the comprehensive waste management plan. The process included public meetings, a webpage with the plan and public surveys for input.

to protect the environment through reducing waste disposed in landfills and reducing the impacts of greenhouse gas emissions that landfills generate. But most communities in Oregon and the nation during that time period saw reduced recycling because of a downturn in markets for recovered materials, the plan noted.

A pie chart from the draft Deschutes County Solid Waste Management Plan shows estimates on the makeup of the waste stream at Knott Landfill in 2016. The organics portion includes yard debris, food waste, wood and other material. The inorganics portion includes rock, concrete, wallboard, electronics and other items.

A new landfill is also key. The county’s population grew by almost 15% from 2010 to 2016—and over the past three years, the amount of waste disposed at Knott Landfill has increased at a rate of 11% per year, according to the plan. With continued growth expected—possibly 230,000 people by 2030—the plan emphasizes a need to get a new disposal site permitted and ready to use when Knott Landfill closes. The plan recommends siting and building a new landfill in the county—rather than transporting waste to regional landfills near the Columbia Gorge—through a formal process to begin by 2021. It offers a set of recommendations meant to reduce landfill waste by as much as 15% over the next 15 years, meeting or exceeding the state’s 45% target when combined with current programs. Among other ideas, the plan recommends expanding existing transfer stations; moving toward a standard waste reduction and reuse program through the county for homes and businesses; considering universal service for vegetative food waste collection; and studying the waste stream to better understand its composition and better evaluate and design options. For instance, a study could help address ways to handle the wood, roofing and other materials from construction and demolition activities that generate about 25% of the waste at the landfill. Other recommendations include recovering food waste— and evaluating ways to enhance composting facilities; developing plans to improve transfer stations; and setting up a capital improvement program to invest in transfer station changes over the next decade. The plan notes that it only outlines a strategy to meet the county’s and cities’ goals—and that various actions, decisions and details, along with public involvement, would need to occur over the next decade on the various topics. Concerns County commissioners have mostly praised the plan, although Commissioner Anthony DeBone has repeatedly suggested including the issue of the

private sector’s role in the waste system and the possible future options for the private sector. The draft plan does so with an appendix. But a few of the plan’s ideas have prompted concerns from board chair Phil Henderson. At a Sept. 18 meeting, Henderson said he agreed with some of the plan’s recommendations, but questioned others. He wondered about the need for the recommendation to standardize the waste reduction and reuse program throughout the county for homes and businesses. He questioned the need for the food waste recommendation, wondering about the economic costs and benefits, noting that people here don’t live so far away from a landfill like people in places like Portland do. Such bigcity efforts aren’t always appropriate here, he said. And he questioned a recommendation to charge more for generating more waste. He also questioned whether such recommendations were a goal of the committee and if the committee had the right people to evaluate such issues. “I don’t know that it’s our goal to re-direct behavior,” Henderson said. Plus, a lot of construction takes place in the region and that sector may need more attention, he added. He called for more discussion before voting. After the meeting, Henderson praised the committee’s efforts— and the plan’s take—on the analysis of various topics, including the landfill issue, saying that’s mainly why the committee was created. But he questioned whether the many recommendations the plan lays out were in the scope of the process, or whether the committee members were vetted well enough from a public policy standpoint to address such issues as costs and behavior. He also questioned setting goals for recycling when the future of that industry is more uncertain now than it was in the past. He doesn’t doubt the effort, noting that he’s the one in his family to do it. “I’m a bottle and can returner on a regular basis,” Henderson said. But he wondered why construction waste didn’t get more attention.

The beginning stage But the plan’s recommendations aren’t meant to be set in stone, noted Cassie Lacy, Bend’s sustainability coordinator, who took part in the committee to craft the plan. Lacy noted a similar process for the county waste plan and the city climate plan. The plans lay out high-level recommendations and guidance, without committing any entities to any specific actions. More detailed analysis and decisions would follow on each recommendation, and the recommended actions could change in response. “You dive into each, one at a time,” Lacy said, calling this stage of adopting the plans the beginning. She also noted that the goals of reducing waste and preventing some of it in the first place align with state diversion rate goals and with the city’s environmental and climate action plan efforts. Part of that effort seeks to reduce the amount of waste sent to the landfill, along with the total amount of waste—steps that help reduce greenhouse gas emissions. The city will likely consider adopting its community climate action plan this fall. “The waste system in the county actually does work quite well,” Lacy said, noting that it’s already efficient and succeeds at serving a lot people—unlike some systems where processes like this identify big problems. But there are challenges, including uncertainty around the recycling industry’s future, Lacy noted. China

stopped accepting recycled materials from much of the U.S. last year. That’s where recycled materials from this area went. Now the U.S. needs to develop a better domestic market for those materials, Lacy noted. An added challenge for this region is the cost of transporting those materials to the coast to ship them to places that may want them. Lacy praised the planning effort as a collaborative one that looks to find ways to optimize an already effective system—including making it easier for people to understand what to throw away or recycle. And it aims to ensure the system is set up to collect future waste efficiently, balancing costs and environmental considerations. “We know it’s growing,” she said of the region. “It benefits all of us to be proactive about that.” To Mike Riley, executive director of The Environmental Center and a member of the county’s solid waste advisory committee, a highlight of the plan is recovering more food waste. Food waste can easily turn into compost, and the move takes some of the organic material out of the landfill where it can otherwise break down and create methane, a potent greenhouse gas, Riley noted. It can also make for nutrient-rich compost. A separate local effort, Project GreenBin in Bend, offers a $20-per-month service to collect food waste for compost on a local farm and for participants to use. Both the county waste plan and the city’s climate plan address the food waste issue, Riley pointed out, crediting those plans for prompting the collection companies’ newly expanded food waste effort. The collection companies took the initiative and responded to the community—and deserve praise for doing so, he said. “The plan is a good framework,” Riley said.

Cascade Disposal and Bend Garbage & Recycling will soon pick up all food waste through the current optional yard debris service. People in Bend can pick up free small kitchen pails at both companies’ Bend offices.

“We’re kind of the poster child of a growing community,” Henderson said. “We could be a leader in that area.” He noted that the plan has a lot he will sign off on, and the county has a system to be proud of. But reviewing the costs and benefits of the proposals is a part of ensuring fiscal responsibility. “What is it that we really want to pay for, and what do we want to pay for it?” he said.

Bend Roots Revival enters its 13th year, and the bands just keep on coming Isaac Biehl Submitted

in the parking lots of Parilla Grill and The Victorian Café. They have come a lonnnnnng way!” Why you should come: “The Roots festival is what Bend is really about. Free music, loving the arts, the community and supporting growth of both in our area. It supports music in schools, private lessons, education in the arts and really shows off how many amazingly talented people we have in this small area.” Blake Lowrey-Evans – The 3 of We Sat., 6:30-7:30pm on the Bend-In-Spoon Community Arts Stage

Catch AM Clouds Sunday night at the AVID Cider Stage.

he 2019 Bend Roots Revival takes place this Friday through Sunday on the Deschutes Brewery grounds. Filled with over 100 bands and artists, the festival is a community melting pot that has grown by leaps and bounds since its first year. A few of Bend Roots’ performers shared their feelings on what makes this festival so special and important to the community. Bruce Moon – AM Clouds Sun., 6:30-7:15pm on the AVID Cider Stage On the festival: “Roots Revival brings our creative community together every year for the righteous task of raising money for arts education. The festival has an amazing vibe. Great performers come from out of town, but, for me, it’s the local artists that are the lifeblood of Roots and give it its eclectic, funky, home-grown appeal.”

Favorite Roots Revival memory: “My favorite memory of the festival is from 2017. It was AM Clouds’ first time at Roots and our first show ever. The crowd at the Redbird Stage gave us a really warm reception. All our kids were in the front row dancing. It was such a cool experience to be performing and have people aged 3 to 73 under the tent together groovin’ to the music.”

On the festival: “Roots Revival is special because it takes an incredibly diverse pool of musical genres, musicians, artists, teachers, the local

community and brings us all together to donate our time and talents to shine a light on the importance of music in the world and our community.” Favorite Roots Revival Memory: “My favorite memory from last year’s Revival was stumbling upon Oregon Fryer and being blown away by how tight they sounded, and how much I enjoyed their music. They played some songs that I assumed were covers because they were perfect songs, and after talking to them I came to find out they were their original songs!” Bend Roots Revival

Still Trippy

A Q&A with The Seshen’s bassist and producer, Aki Ehara

By Isaac Biehl

MENTION THIS AD FOR 10% OFF Starting at $2 per gram

PRICE MATCH GUARANTEE

The Seshen is currently on a co-headlining tour throughout the West Coast with Rituals of Mine.

he Seshen is a six-piece band from the Bay Area. The group creates a plethora of groovy rhythms, taking inspiration from electronic music, pop, R&B, rock and sometimes more. One song can sound like you’re playing a video game and the next like you’re floating through space. One thing that remains constant: the music is always fun and eerily beautiful. Aki Ehara, the producer and bassist for the band, chatted with the Source Weekly ahead of the band’s first show in Bend. The bill consists of Rituals of Mine and locals This Island Earth, which will make for a very complimentary palette of electronic sounds. Learn more about Ehara and The Seshen with this Q&A. Source Weekly: So how did you get your start in music? Aki Ehara: I got my start initially playing in punk bands as a teenager. There’s a pretty famous punk club in Berkeley called 924 Gillman, which is where Operation Ivy and Green Day and Rancid kind of got their start. Me and Kumar, who does samples and electronic stuff in the band, we grew up going to shows there and our band had played there and stuff. Getting involved in that scene and the whole DIY ethics of it was kind of my beginning in music. SW: From there, how did The Seshen end up forming? AE: We [Aki and Lalin, the lead singer for The Seshen] started writing together a bit. She’s Haitian-American, and there was, I think was 2010, there was a big earthquake there and we wanted to do a benefit party. We had done a few house parties together where there was kind of some loose jamming and we put a band together from that. It kind of went from there, being more jammy and then the more we kind of got serious about it and worked on things it kind of became a project with more intention. It started there and we’ve had a few people come and go, but it’s been the same lineup for like six years now.

SW: Do you think that longevity helps within the lineup? Especially with live shows and chemistry? AE: Yeah, I definitely feel like that! It’s interesting. There’s definitely something different that happens with bands—it’s something, having played with Hiatius Coyote and seeing them play live many times, there’s something about a band that is actually a full-on band and not using hired guns or whatever. There’s definitely a different chemistry having those relationships longer and understanding people’s playing in a deeper way. SW: As far as evolution goes with the current lineup, how do you think you guys have been able to grow since you got together? AE: I think just stylistically there’s been shifts. I think we’ve all grown artistically as well. Continuing to explore and really trying to not stay stagnant or tethered to any particular sound. We’ll always sound like us in a number of ways, but we’re always pushing for an evolution and trying to dig deeper creatively. SW: Are you guys working on a project right now? AE: So, we are going to release an album… hopefully in February. That’s done. We’re kind of always working on stuff. On this particular album though, there’s definitely going to be some different sounds. There’s string sections which we haven’t done before. There’s more rock influences going on. There’s still strains of ethereal production, but this album is zooming in a bit more on the granular rather than being like spacey, trippy music. I mean, it’s still kind of trippy—just in a different way [laughs]. The Seshen, Rituals of Mine, This Island Earth Mon., Sept. 30. 7-11pm Volcanic Theatre Pub 70 SW Century Dr., Bend $8

Annual 10th

ronald mcdonald house charities

September 28th, 2019, 12:00Pm to 7:00PM

Every year, thousands of families ﬁnd themselves far from home when their ill or injured children require specialized care or hospitalization. For more than three decades, our Oregon Ronald McDonald Houses have offered these families comfort, support and a beautiful “home away from home”. Every family that we host and help has the opportunity to beneﬁt from home-cooked meals and fresh-baked cookies, activity programs and free services, beautiful indoor and outdoor play spaces and the loving support that kids (and their families) need to heal. Together, we are working to ensure that every child gets the medical care they need (with a heaping dose of love and support!), and that no family has to be separated from their sick child, regardless of where they live.

Welcome to the 10th Annual Sisters Fresh Hop Festival! Every year, Three Creeks Brewing Company teams up with the Central Oregon Brewer’s Guild to raise money for a non-proﬁt. In 2018, we were able to raise nearly $10,000 for Ronald McDonald House Charities! This year, we are working with Ronald McDonald House Charities again. What better way to ﬁght for a cause than drinking the world's freshest beer with your friends? Join us for great music, delicious food and fresh hop beer from over 25 Oregon breweries!

The Bend Ronald McDonald House is celebrating its 22nd Anniversary this year. Nestled at the edge of the St. Charles Medical Center campus, the Bend House has been a comforting and peaceful “home away from home” for six families every night. With a playroom and expansive backyard featuring a basketball court, our Bend House has been a place of fun and joy during long hospital stays for thousands of families over the past two decades, and we look forward to the next 20 years of keeping families together while their children are receiving medical treatment far from home.

What is fresh hop beer? In order for a beer to be considered "fresh hopped," the hops are typically picked and then brewed within 24 hours. The only time fresh hop beer can be created is during harvest season in late summer, early fall. Think of it as an herb: Dried vs. fresh. The herbal notes are still present from the dried herb, but when it's fresh, the difference is in a huge aroma, a crisp taste, and a delicious beer.

“Our family stayed at the Ronald McDonald House this year for 12 days in August after my husband Phil and son Ayden were in a serious motorcycle accident in Eastern Oregon, ” shared Alison Banton from Victoria, BC.“ During what was an incredibly tragic time for our family, the staff at RMHC were so amazing through it all. We were all so humbled by the generosity, caring, and love that was shown to all of us……we felt like we were part of a family, and although we were looking forward to heading home, a part of our hearts were deﬁnitely left back at the Bend Ronald McDonald House.” Lauren Olander, Regional Director for Ronald McDonald House Charities shared that

Most of the United States' hop production takes place in the Paciﬁc Northwest, given its rich soil, rainfall and mild air. Sisters Fresh Hop Festival is a place to celebrate some of the world's ﬁnest beers and breweries!

“our role is to help provide a home away from home for families needing medical attention for their children, and providing compassionate hospitality during some of the most difﬁcult times in a family’s life”. “Ronald McDonald House Charities are all about keeping families together and that was a huge gift we could give Alison and her entire extended family who traveled to Bend to show her their support,” said Olander. Instead of having to worry where they would stay in a town unfamiliar to them, where their next meal would come from and how to be together as a family to show compassion and support to Alison during this tragic time, the Ronald McDonald House could be their home. In 2018, our Central Oregon House provided 1,234 total night stays for families, 188 children were served, 117 families checked in and our average stay for a family is twelve nights. “We wouldn’t be able to provide all of this to families in need without the support of partnerships within our community such as Sisters Fresh Hop Festival”, according to Lauren Olander, the Regional Director for Ronald McDonald House Charities in Central Oregon. “Every donor makes a difference for the families who stay at our Houses. Whether they were dropping their spare change in the donation box at their local McDonald’s, walking in our Stronger Together 5K, knitting blankets for newborn babies, or making home-cooked meals” said Olander. It truly takes a village…

central oregon brewer's guild For years, the Central Oregon Brewer’s Guild has worked with Three Creeks Brewing Company to host the Sisters Fresh Hop Festival. The primary purpose of the local non-proﬁt is to enhance the Central Oregon brewery quality and culture; promote the common interests of the members and the licensed brewing industry in Central Oregon. We collect information of value to members regarding laws, provisions, directives and orders as may be made by the United States government, the State of Oregon, and the political subdivisions thereof serving the guild. We circulate such information to the members and general public; and hold membership in other associations. The Guild is made up of 4 elected board members and the Executive Director, Lou Crooks.

Pondering Inspired Women

Portraits of feminist leaders grace the walls at Franklin Crossing By Cari Brown Kristine Cooper

Painter Sue Carrington invites us to turn our gaze to women, such as these in a series of portraits, on display throughout the month of October at Franklin Crossing. “It is my hope that we ponder the result of these inspired women and all of the change and progress they’ve brought to the world,” Carrington said. Indeed. Go ponder; perhaps you’ll be inspired to action, or to seek out more influential women whose stories are lesser known— or simply, to offer gratitude for the work these intrepid women have undertaken. Sharing the exhibition is Kristine Cooper, whose abstract paintings are “visual diaries” that aspire to communicate those thoughts too big to express in words, exploring topics such as trauma, relationships and beauty. Sue Carrington

This work, Palms, is by Kristine Cooper.

assed by Congress in 1919 and ratified to the U.S. Constitution in 1920, the right to vote was granted to women only 100 years ago, thanks to the fierce determination of suffragettes and feminists like Susan B. Anthony. This significant act unlocked doors (though some remain unopened), granting access for women to invaluable social and political spheres of influence. Take Shirley Chisolm, who became the first African American woman elected to Congress, or The Notorious RBG—Ruth Bader Ginsburg—not the first woman on the U.S. Supreme Court (that distinction belongs to Sandra Day O’Connor) but certainly the most revered for her fervent protection of women’s rights. (Her portrait is on this week’s cover of the Source Weekly.)

The Cuban Flavor of Bend LITTLE BITES By Nicole Vulcan

Nicole Vulcan

On the hunt for that perfect sandwich By Joshua Savage

Don't have to live like a Riff-ugee.

A guest tap spot for Silver Moon Brewing

Alberto Vitamina shared more than just his roasted pig with his American visitor.

this is the place to discover what a true Cuban sandwich should be. Add a mojito, Cuban music and a game of dominoes, and you almost feel the urge to start dancing the salsa. The most unique take on the Cuban is the Cubano Stromboli at 10 Barrel’s westside location. Filled with the expected ingredients minus the pickles, the cooks also add red peppers and cilantro to the mix, but the best addition is the addictive IPA mustard. The concoction is so tasty it can be eaten with almost anything! I may have even finished it off by itself when there was nothing left to dip. Craft Kitchen and Brewery may be best known for its savory briskets, and they take advantage of that specialty by Joshua Savage

The Cubano Stromboli at 10 Barrel offers a unique take on the sandwich.

creating a delicious pork belly Cubano. Cooked just right, the tender pork has a powerful, mouthwatering flavor. Add some fries or greens as a side and you have magic. Just thinking about it makes me hungry. Currents at the Riverhouse serves a more traditional Cubano on its lounge menu. The restaurant sources ingredients from local farms, and maybe this is why the sandwich tastes so delicious. One of my favorites, it has everything that makes it archetypal: fresh bread, ham, pork, and a mustard that balances the flavor perfectly. The pickles even have the cucumber taste I prefer. After a few hours of climbing at Bend Rock Gym recently, my daughter and I hit a food truck lot to reenergize. When I spotted a Cuban on the menu at Shred Town I was easily seduced. The stone-ground mustard gives the sandwich a zesty punch. Tender bits of carnitas and melted Swiss escape from the pub roll, and a fork might be helpful to avoid messy hands. Served with a side of spuds, my belly was pleasantly filled. It was my nine-year-old daughter’s first time to try the sandwich. She’s now hooked and often asks, “When can we go to Shred Town?” Other places around town have Cubans on the menu, and maybe I have yet to try the best, but those I mentioned are the cream of the crop. As is the case with any dish, creating a delicious sandwich is a talent, and the Cubanos in Bend have evolved into an art form.

Patrons of Silver Moon Brewing will find a “closed” sign on the door right now, due to a license/compliance issue with the Oregon Liquor Control Commission. But in a sign of solidarity, Riff Craft Food & Beverage Taproom is playing host to Silver Moon taps throughout Silver Moon’s three-week closure. Riff has a sign outside its tap room right now, dubbing it the “Riff-ugee Camp” for Silver Moon. Through Oct. 12, Silver Moon fans can find the brewery’s beers, as well as its Monday Locals' Night and Thursday Night Trivia at Riff, in The Box Factory on Arizona Avenue. Silver Moon will be in the “penalty box” through Oct. 12, according to its website. Daniel Robbins Photography

Ronin, the Japanese/sushi cart that has been a winner in the Source’s Best of Central Oregon contest on multiple occasions, is closing its cart. Fans of the cart, currently located at The Bite in Tumalo, have through Monday, Sept. 30 to enjoy the wares in its current location.

few years ago, when the Obama administration relaxed travel restrictions to Cuba, I jumped at the opportunity to travel to the seemingly forbidden island. For years I had dreamed of antiquated Spanish colonial architecture, deep turquoise waters of the Caribbean, colorful neighborhoods teeming with vibrant energy and kids playing soccer in the streets. A country that had seemed to defy the odds and maintain its personality in spite of the mighty United States intrigued me. I wanted to see what the hype was about, and of course, I wanted to try one of my favorite foods, the Cuban sandwich. To my dismay they were not easily found on the island! Granted, Alberto served us pulled pork from the roasted pig sprawled on the grill near our table. The vegetables picked straight from his finca agroecologia (agroecological farm) were the freshest I had ever eaten. Yet finding the delicious mix of Cuban bread, swiss cheese, roast pork, ham, pickles and mustard that I craved was a challenge. After asking around and a bit of online research, I learned that Cuban sandwiches originated in Florida—or at least proliferated there. In the early 1900s, people from the island came freely to the States. Many worked in cigar factories in the areas of Key West, and later, West Tampa. Ubiquitous in Miami, I had already tasted a couple of sandwiches while in the city, but I thought I was in store for the most authentic experience possible in Cuba. Not that it ruined my experience on the island, but you could say I was a bit surprised. Fast forward a few years to Bend, a town that offers an incredible number of culinary delights for its size, and a treasury of Cuban sandwiches. First, you should expect a place with the name “Cuban Kitchen” to serve the real deal. True to the restaurant’s roots,

The Taste of Progress

Mezcal goes mainstream By Lisa Sipe Lisa Sipe

To understand the difference between the two spirits, think of mezcal being to tequila what scotch is to whiskey.

ave you ever enjoyed a cocktail and tried to order it again, but couldn’t remember what was in it? A few years ago I was at a swanky cocktail bar in the Southwest when my partner fell in love with a cocktail that was so aggressively smoky and tobacco-infused it had to be made by a hipster bartender in a three-piece suit and a mustache so waxed you could hang your keys on it. Back in the Pacific Northwest, he tried ordering that drink. The bartender asked, what did it taste like? My partner responded, “It was like the Industrial Revolution; it was the taste of progress.” I laughed and looked at the bartender, asking, do you even know what he means? “Not really,” said the bartender, “but was it smoky?” We both replied yes. The bartender came back with a mezcal margarita. While it was sweet, there it was: that gritty taste of progress. It reminded me of my dad’s work. His company produced slitting lines for the steel industry. That mezcal tasted like hot metal, oil and hard work. Mezcal is made from agave like tequila, but it’s very different. It can be made from any agave species, while tequila can only be made from blue agave. To make mezcal, the piñas, or hearts of the agave, are cooked in underground pits—hence that smoky flavor. After cooking, the agave is crushed, combined with water and allowed to ferment. To understand

the difference between the two spirits, think of mezcal being to tequila what scotch is to whiskey. The first time I shopped for mezcal, six or so years ago, there was exactly one bottle available in the local liquor store. When I shopped today there was an entire section. I chose a bottle of Wahaka Mezcal because it included detailed production notes. It’s made from espadín agave, cultivated in Oaxaca, cooked for three to five days in an earthen pit using ocote (pine) wood, crushed in a tahona (circular millstone), fermented 10 to 12 days in pine vats with wild yeast and distilled twice in copper stills. What that told me: it was made from an agave traditional in popular mezcal. It came from one of eight Mexican states that can make mezcal. And by distilling in a copper pot instead of a clay pot, the spirit would be smoother. The proper way to drink mezcal is to not think of it like tequila. Lick it, slam it, suck it can stay at university. Pour a finger of room-temperature mezcal into a rocks glass, or if you want to be traditional, a copita, or shallow clay cup. Take a whiff of the spirit before sipping to light up the senses. In between tastes, cleanse the palate with an orange slice. Mezcal is great in a margarita or paloma, but take it further and use it as a gin or scotch substitute in your favorite recipes.

AD ASTRA: Brad Pitt takes on space pirates, daddy issues and crippling isolation in director James Gray’s newest exploration of fragile masculinity. “Ad Astra” is almost a great film, hampered by an underdeveloped script and weird tonal issues throughout, but the visuals are so outstanding that it’s hard not to recommend the film. See full review on p31. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House, Redmond Cinema, Odem Theater Pub ANGEL HAS FALLEN: Gerard Butler kills things. Morgan Freeman is president. That one guy who’s always a bad guy is the bad guy. Nick Nolte looks like he got put away wet. Things explode. There’s a knife fight. It will make all the money... and next year we’ll get Arches Have Fallen, about a terrorist with flat feet. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX BRITTANY RUNS A MARATHON: The always wonderful Jillian Bell plays an unhealthy woman entering her 30s that takes up running as she works toward competing in the New York City marathon. This could have ended up being a cheesy inspirational flick but instead is a very funny look at mental and physical health. A gem. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House DARK PHOENIX: Hey, look, another adaptation of the “Dark Phoenix Saga,” a much beloved comic arc from the 1980s. I wonder if they’ll get it right this time? It can’t be worse than “X-Men: The Last Stand,” can it? Oh, sweet summer child. It can always get worse…especially in Hollywood. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Odem Theater Pub DOWNTON ABBEY: The show ended with enough dangling threads to leave the possibility of a movie open and here it is. All the characters we know and love have returned, making this an all-star…wait a second. I just figured it out. This is like “The Avengers” for people who like the aristocracy. I get it now. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House GOOD BOYS: This is basically “Superbad” but with tweens, which means the filthy language and situations are even funnier. I’ve seen some critics lamenting laughing about the corruption of kids in the film, but three 12-year-olds accidentally discovering a sex swing hits me right in the funnies. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX GLORIA BELL: Julianne Moore gives one of her finest performances as a woman who finds love at a time when she was searching for anything but something serious. A surprising and heartfelt little movie. Odem Theater Pub HOBBS & SHAW: Dwayne Johnson and Jason Statham take their characters from the “Fast and the Furious” franchise and spin them into another franchise that will then spin into another franchise until the entire world becomes an excuse for Vin Diesel to live life a quarter mile at a time. Big explosions and even bigger stupidity make this movie a fun headache. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX HUSTLERS: Jennifer Lopez and company bring us a movie about strippers with hearts of gold drugging and ripping off Wall Street dicks who helped ruin the economy. This is a surprisingly big hit already

and a much better movie than the trailers would have us believe. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX IT: CHAPTER TWO: While the movie is still quite fun and is filled with some bravura horror set pieces, it’s such an unwieldy mess that it’s hard to recommend. Bill Hader should be in more horror movies though. That guy’s got a future in the movie business. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Redmond Cinema, Odem Theater Pub LINDA RONSTADT: THE SOUND OF MY VOICE: It’s hard to really overestimate how influential Linda Ronstadt has been in the realm of music for over five decades. Here’s a documentary tracing her origin back to Tucson and follows her to Los Angeles and her pioneering work for women in the record industry. Sisters Movie House ONCE UPON A TIME…IN HOLLYWOOD: Either you like Tarantino or you don’t, and this big hearted and strange fantasy won’t change your mind. Simultaneously a love letter to 1969 Hollywood and a dirge for the loss of innocence those times stirred in us as a country, “Once Upon a Time” is a glorious cinematic treasure. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX PAVAROTTI: Even if you don’t know opera, you’ve probably heard the name Pavarotti, the most famous tenor of all time. He makes everything sound good. He’s like the Barry White of opera. This is a documentary about his life. I bet he sings in it. Odem Theater Pub RAMBO: LAST BLOOD: This new and supposedly final entry in the franchise sees Stallone take on drug cartels for revenge purposes, I assume. It’s always pretty fun watching Stallone kill people, so hopefully he can keep up the good work with this one. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Redmond Cinema THE FAREWELL: A bittersweet and lovely dramedy about the lengths we go to for family and the ways different cultures say goodbye. One of the best films of the year so far and destined to go down as the funniest movie about grief ever made. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Tin Pan Theater THE GOLDFINCH: Based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel that I skimmed through several years ago comes a movie that got trounced by a movie about thieving strippers at the box office. It’s actually a very good story, but this adaptation seems to miss everything that was special about the book and just focuses on the big stuff. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX THE LION KING: Look, I’m sure this movie is really pretty to look at and everything, but if it doesn’t have Jeremy Irons playing Scar, then I’m gonna make a hard pass. I’m sure I’ll see it at some point, but messing with perfection is never a good idea—even if it’s Disney messing with their own perfect ideas. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX THE PEANUT BUTTER FALCON: One of the sweetest movies ever made. The film follows a young man with Down syndrome following his dream to be a professional wrestler. Part Mark Twain and part southern gothic fairytale, “The Peanut Butter Falcon” is the textbook definition of a crowd pleaser. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

Issues SCREEN Braddy Neptune is the Pitts in "Ad Astra" By Jared Rasic (Tommy Lee Jones), the most legendary explorer in history. Cliff left Earth decades earlier with the Lima Project, a mission to search the farthest reaches of the solar system for intelligent life. Roy, who barely has an attachment to his father outside of the hero worship the rest of the world has for him, is tasked to try to find him before solar flares originating from the last known location of the Lima Project destroy all life on Earth. So basically, what we have here is “Apocalypse Now” in space, complete with all the paranoia, madness and danger of that American classic. Visually, the movie is basically flawless, but the film is almost constantly filled with a godawful voice-over from Pitt that makes every single bit of subtext actual text. We always know exactly what Roy is thinking because he never once stops telling us for the entire film. Gray gives “Ad Astra” the serious and existential tone of “Tree of Life” while simultaneously filling the movie with space pirates, ghost ships and zero gravity fight sequences, so the film

instead feels like a goofy genre picture that would also love a few Oscars. And it almost deserves them. I guarantee there’s a director’s cut of this movie that’s an absolute masterpiece, as long as he removes the voiceover and moves a few pieces around. The film is almost heartbreaking with how close it comes to greatness, which makes its flaws so much more glaring in the light of day.

So many aspects of the film are perfect that it’s absolutely worth seeing anyway, but man, this one hurts. Gray is a master filmmaker, but the bad choices he makes in “Ad Astra” are for rookies. Ad Astra

ames Gray is the most underrated director in Hollywood and, in a just world, “Ad Astra” should make him huge. From the cinematography to the score to the special effects, “Ad Astra” is a jaw-droppingly gorgeous film. Gray conjures moments and images that will stay with me for the rest of my life. But the film’s one glaring flaw is a script and story that feels sadly undercooked in comparison with every other aspect of Gray’s work. Gray’s last two films, “The Lost City of Z” and “The Immigrant” are both dyed-in-the-wool masterpieces focused on his obsession as a storyteller: humanity’s inability to find comfort in the ordinary. Whether it’s “Z’s” British explorer on a doomed quest for a lost city in the Amazon or “The Immigrant’s” Post War Polish sister searching for a better life in America, no one is happy with the world as they’ve found it. “Ad Astra” follows this same path as Brad Pitt (breathtakingly vulnerable in every frame of the film) plays Roy McBride, an emotionless astronaut whose real claim to fame is being the son of Clifford McBride

This agility dog makes a clean leap over an obstacle.

a “send bonus” section where handlers direct their dogs through obstacles. “The dogs can do all the courses or just one, whatever the owner wants their dog to do,” added Lachowski. Levels include Novice, Open and Excellent. “Novice is for dogs new to agility or a course and they can make mistakes but still qualify,” said Lachowski. Organizers expect over 75 competitors for the event, with some owners having more than one dog in the competition. Sandy Schneider, a member of Bend Agility Action Dogs, will be competing with her four-year-old Shetland sheepdog, Thor. “To enjoy the sport, you have to enjoy breaking things down into little steps and just having fun,” explained Schneider, who’s been involved since the ‘90s. “It’s about positivity, learning to better communicate with your dog and finding joy in the journey,” added Schneider. Chris McLeod, dog trainer and owner of Canine Pursuits in Bend, started in agility with her Brittany spaniel, Calico. “She was the dog from hell as a puppy,” McLeod said. “I needed an outlet for her and the obedience trainer I went to had six pieces of agility equipment. I tried it and was Chris McLeod

hooked.” McLeod’s Brittany went on to be the third Brittany in America to achieve MACH3, Master Agility Champion, status. “She was a really great dog after I found agility training,” added McLeod. Trainers and competitors say the benefits to dog agility include humandog bonding and providing the owners with an outlet, be it social or physical. Whereas the MBKC is associated with the AKC, the BAAD club is a member of the United States Dog Agility Association, Inc., which organized in 1986 to promote international standards for dog agility. Both groups host competitions twice each year. “I love doing agility training with my Aussies because it increases their self-confidence, is great exercise for all of us, and because my dogs love it,” said Elizabeth Hughes Weide, MBKC publicity chair for the event. “The dogs work off-leash in the agility courses which reinforces their obedience training, recall and focus. All these activities deepen the relationship between us and our dogs.” For Lachowski this training and relationship building is especially challenging with her three-year-old Rhodesian ridgeback, Mamba. “The ridgebacks are lion hounds, trained to hunt lions, and they have to make their own decisions as they work away from people.” Spectators may attend the free event and enjoy the action. One item that Lachowski stressed, in order to minimize chaos, is asking that non-competition dogs be left home, because they get just as excited as their owners watching the agility dogs run their courses.

Kids who are in 4 th grade for the 2019-2020 school year are eligible for the Every Kid Outdoors pass, which gives them free entry for an entire year to all federal lands, including national parks, U.S. forest lands and more. In the local area, that offers access to places such as the Deschutes National Forest or Crater Lake National Park. Fourth graders (and their adults) can visit everykidoutdoors.gov to print out a paper pass, which they can then take to any U.S. Forest Service office to swap for a plastic pass. The passes are valid from Sept. 1, 2019 through Aug. 31, 2020. Teachers and parents can also access the site for suggestions on lesson plans and activities. The Every Kid Outdoors program is aimed at getting kids to spend more time outdoors, and to encourage “valuable opportunities to explore, learn, and play in the spectacular places that belong to us all and aims to inspire future generations to serve as stewards of these places.” Meanwhile, National Public Lands Day is this Saturday, Sept. 28. On that day, fees are waived for everyone at most national parks, forests, monuments and other public lands sites. It’s also a big day for volunteering, as the largest volunteer day on public lands all year. To check out volunteer opportunities, visit neefusa.org/npld.

f you’re new to the sport of dog agility, then head to the Crook County Fairgrounds this weekend, Sept. 27-29, for the Mt. Bachelor Kennel Club’s Fall Agility Trials. Watch dogs weave through poles, leap over jumps or charge through tunnels on timed courses. Besides speed, the challenging courses require the dogs and owners to be quick thinking and precise in their movements. But it’s not all about winning. “It can be tough because you’ve got a basset hound running against a border collie,” said Sandy Lachowski, MBKC show chairman, with a laugh. “Winning isn’t everything in dog agility; we just love dogs and doing things with our dogs.” In agility competitions, dogs are separated into different classes not by breed, but by height at their withers. Dogs from Chihuahuas to Great Danes compete. A nonprofit member club of the American Kennel Club, MBKC’s mission is to be a positive and active presence in the Central Oregon community, promoting and demonstrating responsible dog ownership. They do this through dog-related education, support of other organizations with similar intent and by hosting competitive events. Perhaps better known for their rally and confirmation dog shows, Lachowski and her volunteers lead the club’s charge for agility. “The bulk of our entrants are from Central Oregon and I love to give our local people a local venue to compete in,” said Lachowski. The event also attracts competitors from other regions such as southern Oregon and Idaho. The trials include various categories, such as Standard, Jumper, Fifteen and Send Time (FAST), and Time 2 Beat. Standard includes obstacles such as A-frames, seesaws, tunnels, weave poles, pause tables and more, while the Jumper category removes obstacles except for jumps and weave poles to encourage speed. FAST is a free-form course with obstacles and

The Glory Days of Flying

N A T U R A L

W O R L D

From vomit cleaner to budding pilot in the days before WWII By Jim Anderson done to get rid of that mess, then walked back to the hanger, with me behind them. That’s when they noticed me. “Whadda’ ya’ need kid?” Without hesitation I said, “I’d like the job of cleaning the puke out of your airplanes.” And that was when airplanes entered my life. I scrubbed puke out of that big, front cockpit, seats, safety belts, floor, sides (both inside and out), control cables, struts, frame and fuselage skin— and took out my wages in flying time. About the need to do that nasty job: There were a lot of unemployed airplane people after WWI came to an end. That war was the beginning of airplanes in American society. As a tool of war, they were an amazing success, and that success was quickly tamed and came roaring into the business world. One of the aeronautical engineers of that period, Al Mooney, a bright, up-and-coming airplane designer, came up with a biplane design that the newly formed Alexander Airplane Company thought was a winner. They purchased Mooney’s design, named it the Eaglerock and sold it to people starting out in the airplane business for around $2,000 each. Piloted by ex-WWI pilots, they started hopping rides at airports all around the U.S. The concept of airplane rides was a new business and took off like a rocket (pardon the pun). Every town and city that had aviation on their minds had an airfield. Eaglerocks and other designs appeared. Saturday, Sunday and holidays became big business days for airplane rides. If the passengers were apprehensive about flying, the pilot usually didn’t know it, or even care; all he wanted to do was get into the sky, land again and take off with two more passengers. If the pilot was skilled at aerial warfare he immediately made steep

turns and performed some mild aerobatics, which, as you can guess had a very upsetting impact on the passengers. The result was a sudden and complete upheaval of the passenger’s stomach contents, and at times, even the loss of consciousness. By the time the aircraft was back on earth some degree of recovery came to the passengers and they departed the airfield—some never to return—leaving the contents of their stomachs for the pilot to take care of. All this meant that kids like me, who wanted to fly, had their job cut out for them. But, in my case, cleaning puke out of the front cockpit of that beautiful Eaglerock biplane was no different than cleaning out the barn of cow manure. Consequently, I became a student pilot. One afternoon my instructor, Red Hall, was teaching me the skills of coordinated flying in crosswinds in a Taylor Cub, having me fly back and forth across Jones Hill Road in a crosswind. I had to bank slightly when going one way and bank steeper to maintain the same distance from the road while going the other way. After I got the hang of it, the drill became somewhat monotonous and I

noticed Hall taking a nap in the back seat. I kept at it and in so doing approached the farm. As I flew closer, I saw my grandfather coming out of the barn. The barnstormer in me took over and I turned the Cub right at Grandpa with the thought of giving him a buzz job. I was so intent on watching my grandfather I didn’t realize Red had come to life until I suddenly heard him shout, “What the *@#* do you think you’re doing!” He put in full power and pulled back on the stick in front of him, and as we climbed out the whole barn suddenly was right in front of me. The wheels bounced off the roof as we skimmed over it. Red never gave the aircraft back to me, and never said a word until we landed back at the airport; then he let me have both barrels. “You stupid…” and he went on and on, finally finishing off with…“I’ll never fly with you again!” Well, he did, eventually, but I had learned my lesson and never again knowingly took an aircraft into a place that wasn’t safe. Well, I tried not to—but hitting that DC line on top of the Bonneville power tower with the Citrabia doesn’t count. I was filming a news story….

ne day, back in West Haven, Connecticut, in 1941, living on my grandfather’s farm, an Aeronca “Flying Bathtub” came swooping over me. I was helping my uncles and grandfather bring in the hay on a sweet summer day, and the last thing I thought would happen was a buzz job by that pot-bellied flying machine. “Wow! What’s that?” I asked my Uncle Harry, and he answered, “Oh, that’s Red Hall from the H&H airport,” and waved to the plane as it came by for another pass. “Red Hall? H&H Airport?” I thought. Those thoughts were still there when I dropped into bed, exhausted after pitching hay. That was just before WWII broke out. I was 13 years old, and I had a paper route, delivering the New Haven Register to families on my bicycle. The next morning, with that “Flying Bathtub” still in my thoughts, I climbed on my bike and set off for the H&H Airfield about 5 miles away. I rolled onto the airfield, where biplanes were parked in a row near the road, with a big sign next to them reading, “Airplane Rides.” I spotted the Aeronca tied down near the big hanger with other planes. I leaned the bike against the hanger, and as I walked by the yawning opening I heard, “…Yeah, but if I’m going to keep hopping rides I gotta’ find somebody to clean the puke out of the Eaglerock; it’s gettin pretty stinky.” “Show me,” another voice said. I followed the two guys out to the flight line where three Eaglerock biplanes were parked. One guy climbed up on a lower wing and the other climbed up on the other side, then both stuck their heads over the front cockpit. “Phew!” one of them said. “That’s pretty bad!” They discussed what had to be

Your chance to see how it all works

umans have progressed through the years and the construction of dwellings has evolved and adapted through identifying a problem and finding new, innovative solutions. With an increasing population, diminishing global resources and the effects of climate change staring us right between the eyes, we’re standing at a critical crossroads. One very important step is to green up our homes and make them more resource efficient. The U.S. Energy Information Administration states that buildings, both residential and commercial, account for a whopping 73% of electricity consumption and 39% of total carbon dioxide emissions. Buildings are also responsible for 24% of all municipal solid waste, 25% of wood and raw materials use and 25% of water consumption. If buildings continue to be constructed in a similar manner, with familiar products, the result will be...well, the same. The building process must improve with renewed, more efficient techniques that are really simple and achievable. Using energy efficient appliances, fixtures and systems will result in less energy consumption. Swapping standardized construction materials for renewable materials will shrink our dependence on resources. Right now in Bend there are large-scale commercial projects and smaller grassroots efforts pursuing this mission and taking strides toward the goal of making

sustainable building practices the standard. This Saturday, Sept. 28, is the 19th annual Green Homes Tour, presented by the Environmental Center, which highlights green buildings and the local hometown heroes who are choosing a brighter, greener, solar energy fueled future. This tour is a great opportunity to visit these properties and physically experience the possibilities, while hearing the stories of lessons learned along the pathway to sustainable building. The 10 properties on the tour vary from a new affordable housing apartment building, a highly efficient cottage cluster community, an all-electric Net Zero home and an older home retrofitted to meet green standards. Going green isn’t just for the wealthy or newly constructed homes; it’s something every household has the ability to achieve. Simple steps can create big change, and green practices can be as easy as changing out incandescent light bulbs with LED bulbs. There are many lowcost, high-impact alterations possible for small budgets. If cost is a concern there are numerous incentives and organizations that offer financial assistance. Two fantastic resources are the Environmental Center’s website, envirocenter.org and the Energy Trust of Oregon’s website, energytrust.org. We can’t change the past, we just need to acknowledge, learn, adapt and build a better future. Authors Note: We’ll be hosting at one of the properties on the Green Homes Tour! Stop by and see us Saturday afternoon at the Monterey Mews Cottage, a Platinum Earth Advantage Certified Home.

up to visit my ailing dad. She bailed at 7 p.m. the night before I flew out, saying she needed three days to pack for a vacation. She never even apologized. I don’t want to be friends anymore. She said, “You’re throwing a friend away over not watching your dog.” But it’s not that. It’s that she broke her word and left me in a huge bind. Still, I feel bad about cutting her out of my life, as we’ve been friends a long time. Thoughts? —Disgusted This is like that game Trust, where you let yourself fall backward in the belief that somebody will be there to catch you. In this case, your catcher ran off last minute for a mani-pedi, and you woke up in the ER getting the crack in your head stapled shut by four surgical residents. At least your anger hasn’t deserted you. Maybe that sounds odd, given that anger gets a bad rap as a “destructive” emotion. But anger actually has an important function. It’s a “recalibrational emotion,” one of a few emotions—along with shame and embarrassment—that evolutionary scientist Aaron Sell explains evolved to regulate our own behavior as well as someone else’s. Sell writes that anger arises in a person in response to their perception that another person “does not value their interests highly enough.” This motivates the angry person to push for better treatment. There are two tactics for this: inflicting costs (sometimes simply through the scary ugliness of aggression) or withdrawing benefits. The function of these two tactics, Sell explains, is to show the other person (the slacking offender) that they will be worse off if they keep neglecting the angry person’s interests. Interestingly, in research across six cultures—including Shuar hunter-horticulturalists in the Amazon—Sell and his colleagues found that people were “less angry when harmed for a large benefit compared to a small benefit.” Accordingly, chances are you’d be less angry and less motivated to retire this woman as a friend if she’d bailed after being hit by some big emergency. Instead, it seems she just wanted to spend three days packing for her trip unimpeded by the slightest bit of doggie care. That desire in and of itself isn’t wrong, but being friends with someone (and getting the benefits) can involve

some inconveniences from time to time— putting yourself out to make things better for a person you care about. What’s more, this woman never apologized. So, your anger—your imposing a cost on her—did not motivate her to feel remorse or show you that your needs and feelings mean something to her. Yes, it’s good to keep friends—if they actually act like friends. Otherwise, you should probably treat them like a broken vacuum cleaner. Correct me if I’m wrong, but you probably wouldn’t keep it “for old time’s sake!” after it starts to smoke, blow big dust clouds, and scream like 20 goats being slaughtered Amy Alkon in your living room.

NoWhat Wayshould to Retreat a Lady you do when a man

you’ve been dating stops texting or otherwise responding? We had an amazing time when we were last together. I can’t believe he just isn’t interested. Should I call? Drop by? What do you suggest? —Hurt As a woman, there’s sometimes good reason for you to chase a man, like that he’s good-looking and funny and has also stolen your wallet. A man who’s interested in you will not need chasing. In fact, if he’s really into you, he will chase you like a dog chases a squirrel...a squirrel wearing a tiny jumpsuit made entirely out of bacon. Unfortunately, human psychology is particularly bad at helping us detach from lost causes, motivating us to lead with our ego and emotion rather than reason. For example, we’re prone to keep putting time, energy, and/or money into something based on what we’ve already invested— what we’ve already “sunk” into it. This is called the sunk cost fallacy, and it’s irrational behavior because our initial outlay is gone. The rational approach is to base any further investment on how likely the thing is to pay off in the future. Cut your losses. Come up with an ego-soothing explanation for his disappearance—like that he was kidnapped from the mall parking lot and never seen again. Crazy as that advice might sound, research on memory by psychologist Elizabeth Loftus actually finds we are quick to turn our malarkey, especially our repeated malarkey, into our reality, i.e., what we believe. Also, quite frankly, there’s a good chance he actually was kidnapped—though probably just by some other woman’s butt cleavage.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): “All human beings

ASTROLOGY By Rob Brezsny LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): “I just cut my bangs

SCORPIO (Oct. 23Nov. 21): You could call the assignment I have for you as “taking a moral inventory” or you could refer to it as “going to confession.” I think of it as “flushing out your worn-out problems so as to clear a space for better, bigger, more interesting problems.” Ready? Take a pen and piece of paper or open a file on your computer and write about your raw remorse, festering secrets, unspeakable apologies, inconsolable guilt, and desperate mortifications. Deliver the mess to me at Truthrooster@gmail.com. I’ll print out your testimony and conduct a ritual of purgation. As I burn your confessions in my bonfire at the beach, I’ll call on the Goddess to purify your heart and release you from your angst. (P.S.: I’ll keep everything confidential.)

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Two hundred years ago, Sagittarian genius Ludwig Beethoven created stirring music that’s often played today. He’s regarded as one of history’s greatest classical composers. And yet he couldn’t multiply or divide numbers. That inability made it hard for him to orga-

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22Jan. 19): “When you hit a wall—of your own imagined limitations—just kick it in,” wrote playwright Sam Shepard. That seems like a faulty metaphor to me. Have you ever tried to literally kick in a wall? I just tried it, and it didn’t work. I put on a steel-toe work boot and launched it at a closet door in my basement, and it didn’t make a dent. Plus now my foot hurts. So what might be a better symbol for breaking through your imagined limitations? How about this: use a metaphorical sledgehammer or medieval battering ram or backhoe. (P.S. Now is a great time to attend to this matter.)

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): In 1965, Chinese archaeologists found an untarnished 2400-yearold royal bronze sword that was still sharp and shiny. It was intricately accessorized with turquoise and blue crystals, precision designs, and a silk-wrapped grip. I propose we make the Sword of Goujian one of your symbolic power objects for the coming months. May it inspire you to build your power and authority by calling on the spirits of your ancestors and your best memories. May it remind you that the past has gifts to offer your future. May it mobilize you to invoke beauty and grace as you fight for what’s good and true and just.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Comedian John Cleese speaks of two different modes toward which we humans gravitate. The closed style is tight, guarded, rigid, controlling, hierarchical, and tunnel-visioned. The open is more relaxed, receptive, exploratory, democratic, playful, and humorous. I’m pleased to inform you that you’re in a phase when spending luxurious amounts of time in the open mode would be dramatically healing to your mental health. Luckily, you’re more predisposed than usual to operate in that mode. I encourage you to experiment with the possibilities. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Upcoming adventures could test your poise and wit. They may activate your uncertainties and stir you to ask provocative questions. That’s cause for celebration, in my opinion. I think you’ll benefi t from having your poise and wit tested. You’ll generate good fortune for yourself by exploring your uncertainties and asking provocative questions. You may even thrive and exult and glow like a miniature sun. Why? Because you need life to kick your ass in just the right gentle way so you will become alert to possibilities you have ignored or been blind to. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Novelist John irving asked, “Who can distinguish between falling in love and imagining falling in love? Even genuinely falling in love is an act of the imagination.” That will be a helpful idea for you to contemplate in the coming weeks. Why? Because you’re more likely than usual to fall in love or imagine falling in love—or both. And even if you don’t literally develop a crush on an attractive person or deepen your intimacy with a person you already care

for, I suspect you will be inflamed with an elevated lust for life that will enhance the attractiveness of everything and everyone you behold.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): You know your body is made of atoms, but you may not realize that every one of your atoms is mostly empty space. Each nucleus contains 99 percent of the atom’s mass, but is as small in comparison to the rest of the atom as a pea is to a cathedral. The tiny electrons, which comprise the rest of the basic unit, fly around in a vast, deserted area. So we can rightfully conclude that you are mostly made of nothing. That’s a good meditation right now. The coming weeks will be a fine time to enjoy the refreshing pleasures of emptiness. The less frenzy you stir up, the healthier you’ll be. The more spacious you allow your mind to be, the smarter you’ll become. “Roomy” and “capacious” will be your words of power. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): “We don’t always have a choice about how we get to know one another,” wrote novelist John Irving. “Sometimes, people fall into our lives cleanly—as if out of the sky, or as if there were a direct fl ight from Heaven to Earth.” This principle could be in full play for you during the coming weeks. For best results, be alert for the arrival of new allies, future colleagues, unlikely matches, and surprise helpers.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): In North America, people call the phone number 911 to report an emergency. In much of the EU, the equivalent is 112. As you might imagine, worry-warts sometimes use these numbers even though they’re not experiencing a legitimate crisis. For example, a Florida woman sought urgent aid when her local McDonald’s ran out of Chicken McNuggets. In another case, a man walking outdoors just after dawn spied a blaze of dry vegetation in the distance and notifi ed authorities. But it turned out to be the rising sun. I’m wondering if you and yours might be prone to false alarms like these in the coming days, Virgo. Be aware of that possibility. You’ll have substantial power if you marshal your energy for real dilemmas and worthy riddles, which will probably be subtle.

Homework: “It is hard work and great art to make life not so serious,” said John Irving. How are you doing with that? FreeWillAstrology.com

in a gas station bathroom,” confesses a Libran blogger who calls herself MagicLipstick. “An hour ago I shocked myself by making an impulse buy of a perfect cashmere trench coat from a stranger loitering in a parking lot,” testifies another Libran blogger who refers to himself as MaybeMaybeNot. “Today I had the sudden realization that I needed to become a watercolor painter, then signed up for a watercolor class that starts tomorrow,” writes a Libran blogger named UsuallyPrettyCareful.

nize his finances. He once wrote about himself that he was “an incompetent businessman who is bad at arithmetic.” Personally, I’m willing to forgive those flaws and focus on praising him for his soul-inspiring music. I encourage you to practice a similar approach with yourself in the next two weeks. Be extra lenient and merciful and magnanimous as you evaluate the current state of your life. In this phase of your cycle, you need to concentrate on what works instead of on what doesn’t work.

have three lives: public, private, and secret,” wrote Piscean novelist Gabriel García Márquez. I will add that during different phases of our lives, one or the other of these three lives might take precedence; may need more care than usual. According to my analysis, your life in the coming weeks will offer an abundance of vitality and blessings in the third area: your secret life. For best results, give devoted attention to your hidden depths. Be a brave explorer of your mysterious riddles.

Lawmakers urge the FDA to give clarity to CBD stakeholders By Jeremy Dickman

emp is an ancient plant. The Romans and Babylonians recognized its useful properties in creating rope, textiles and even pharmaceuticals. Hemp stalks helped build bridges in medieval Europe. George Washington himself grew hemp to construct sails and nets for fishing the Potomac River. That is to say, humans have had some 5,000 years to study— and benefit from—this versatile plant. Apparently, that’s still not enough time for the U.S. government to tell us how we should grow it, sell it, and dispense its lucrative extracts, without worrying about a sharp knock at the door.

What could be the holdup? Well, executive branch agencies in the U.S. haven’t exactly been helmed in consistent fashion during a Trump presidency that is not yet three years old. Trump has appointed five secretaries of the HHS in 32 months. (Obama had three over his eight-year presidency. George W. Bush had two.) The current FDA chief, Sharpless, has served as acting commissioner since the resignation of Scott Gottlieb in April. Even with a less-chaotic resident at 1600 Pennsylvania, the opioid crisis would doubtlessly test the FDA of any administration. Yet stalling on CBD rules has arguably hurt the fight

Additional research is badly needed to determine CBD’s potential applications and dangers, if any. It’s this absurd situation that has motivated lawmakers from both sides of the aisle in Washington, D.C., to badger the Food and Drug Administration into adopting rules related to hemp-derived cannabidiol, a non-psychoactive chemical that is used to make oils, lotions, ingredients in dietary supplements and so on. Oregon Senator Ron Wyden (D-OR) has been among the Senate forerunners in urging the FDA and the Department of Health and Human Services to bring some clarity to the issue for hemp farmers and CBD processors. He issued a letter in June to HHS Secretary Alex Azar and FDA Commissioner Ned Sharpless, urging them to give some guidance by August 2019 to the industry as to their enforcement discretion. Wyden also asked the FDA to issue interim rules related to CBD before permanent rules are in place. (The FDA did not hit Wyden’s suggested deadline.) Senator Wyden is hardly alone in this effort. Twenty-six U.S. House members (including Republicans in such deep-red states as Alaska and Alabama) signed a letter issued to the FDA asking for the same thing. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) also inserted language for consideration in the agricultural spending bill urging the FDA to issue enforcement guidelines. Still, players in the hemp/CBD industry toil in a gray federal market. Apart from ensuring that their harvested hemp and CBD contain no more than .3% THC, and refraining from making outlandish medical claims, there is continued confusion among those trafficking in CBD.

against opioid addiction. Scholarly works related to the effects of CBD in reducing opioid prescriptions are mounting. Preliminary studies have experts describing a “sparing” effect, where opioid painkillers are more easily curtailed when replaced with CBD supplements. CBD has a famous association with helping cure other ailments, too, including epilepsy, depression, anxiety and joint inflammation. Far more emphasis in these studies, however, is placed on what we don’t know. Additional research is badly needed to determine CBD’s potential applications and dangers, if any. And that’s not easily done when federal regulators won’t even describe the rules of the game. Notwithstanding the FDA’s dragging feet, other federal agencies are stepping in to boost research of CBD. The National Institutes of Health recently sponsored $3 million worth of research grants to doctors at the Boston Children’s Hospital, New York University School of Medicine and the University of Texas, among others, to determine to what extent CBD’s analgesic benefits could potentially replace those of opioids. Yet $3 million is literally the least the government can do. The opioid crisis has cost our nation over half a trillion dollars. With 50,000 acres worth of hemp being grown in Oregon (and thousands more acres awaiting approval by the Oregon Department of Agriculture), the state could be poised for an economic revolution if CBD is determined to be part of a viable fix for the opioid crisis, as well as a contributor to health and wellness in general.
