FEBRUARY 26, 2015 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY / 3

t has been a fun week at the Source, and it is a fun issue. Our Outdoor Advisor, Corbin Gentzler, points readers to a series of ghost towns sprinkled around Central Oregon, reminders about a past that has come and gone, mining towns that time left behind. But this issue is more about what still exists from this legendary time; in fact, it is about what is thriving—a young hat maker who is refashioning (quite literally) the cowboy icon, a couple from Arizona that brought the spiciness of that state to this high desert region with a line of salsas, and our beer reviewer Kevin Gifford collects a six-pack of beers that boasts the wrangler and cowpunch swagger. Our annual Made in Central Oregon issue is both an archeological dig into the past and also a recognition of how much the “cowboy lifestyle” is still part of everyday life in 2015 in Central Oregon. And, we present a number of articles that show off how the independent spirit that drove pioneers and cowboys is still here driving the cultural life in Bend—a Q&A with Diane Lane from Get-Lit who will present at next weekend’s MUSE conference; a look at the booming kombucha industry; and Delano Lavigne’s report from last Saturday’s Boulder Bash, the first-ever cash-prize climbing competition in Central Oregon. No, this is certainly not Mr. Roger’s neighborhood. It is a community of daring and bold entrepreneurs that could ride tall with any cowboy. Giddy up!

Now that the Independent Party of Oregon is a major party, would you consider joining?

More like “How will humans sustain themselves”.... —Jason Chinchen via facebook.com/ sourceweekly

In his letter of 2/19, Mike Frank had a pretty good suggestion for the news media. I would like to offer some addional [sic] that I feel apply: learn proper English grammar or hire proof readers, or both. The misuse of the English language by the media is disgusting. You see it everywhere, from the Source to the major television networks, newpapers [sic] and magazines, etc. Nobody gives a damn any more about using our language correctly? Nobody knows how to any more? In Phil Busse’s article he begins with “This is not the winter that the ski industry, nor skiers, in Oregon wants...” By doing so he has made probably the most common grammatical mistake that crops up constantly in the media. He has mismatched the subject with the verb form. The sentence actually has two subjects, ski industry and skiers in Oregon, and therefore needs the plural form of the verb, which would be want, rather than wants. No worries, Phil, you are in stellar company with all the other grammatically challenged media people out there. A priceless example of another gaffe occurred on the NatGeo channel recently, during a feature on the Galapagos. The subject was underwater creatures that are brightly lit but can best be seen at night. The narrator said, “the brilliance of these fish are hardly visible by day.” Again, the subject and verb form were mismatched, to effect a bastardization that comes across almost like an expletive if you know any grammar at all. Of course, the subject here is brilliance, which is singular, rather than fish, which

is obviously plural. So the wrter [sic] again confused the subject and ended up with the wrong verb form, which should have been is. The correct version is then “the brilliance of these fish IS hardly visible by day.” I am probably just rambling on about something most people couldn’t care less about, but I believe that our language should be important to us and we have a right to expect those in the business of using it frequently to be able to do so correctly. —Marco Editor’s note: We actually care quite a lot about grammar here at the Source. So much so that we often edit letters to the editor for grammar to ensure readability. To illustrate this, we left your letter as submitted, with the exception of correcting the quote you referenced. And while we, being human, occasionally make mistakes, this was not one of them. That sentence has one subject: the ski industry. Because “nor Oregon skiers” is a parenthetical statement set off by commas, it does not prompt a plural verb. So, while we appreciate your attention to things like verb agreements, we would advise: If you are going to pick at nits, first be sure there are nits to pick.

plates.” And I’m pretty sure slapping an “I love Bend” sticker on your car doesn’t count as registering it in Oregon. If you “love” Oregon so much, maybe it’s time to play by the rules here. And that also goes for bringing your less-than-stellar driving skills you may have become accustomed to in a larger metropolitan area. Time to slow down and use common sense, even if you don’t have much left. —SC via bendsource.com

Letter of the Week!

THE BOOT NEWS

Open Your Ears

Last Thursday, the Oregon Liquor Control Commission hosted the first official “listening session” on Measure 91 in Central Oregon. The ballot measure legalizing the recreational use of marijuana was passed by statewide voters in November (and passed in Deschutes County 51.9 percent to 48.1 percent), and will take effect on July 1. As evidenced by last week’s meeting, exactly how this new law will take effect is clearly a confusing and important topic for many residents. About 300 people packed into a large conference room at the Riverhouse; so many people showed up that extra chairs were dragged out to accommodate everyone. Yet, in spite of the massive interest from residents, only three elected officials bothered to show up—state Sen.Tim Knopp, Bend City Councilor Victor Chudowsky, and Jefferson County Commissioner Mae Huston. It is a dispiriting and discouraging display of apathy from our elected officials. On July 1, recreational use of marijuana will be legal in Oregon and it is likely to be one of the most transformative social and economic forces in the upcoming years for the state. Yet, only those three elected officials bothered to come and listen to what will probably be the best organized opportunity for elected officials to hear concerns and thoughts from the general public about the legalization of marijuana before July 1. Unfortunately, though, that lack of interest is not unexpected. Bend’s City Council has been noticeably absent in any discussion about the legalization of marijuana, in spite of what impact it can and will have on the city’s social and economic makeup. The legalization of marijuana is expected to be a boon in tax dollars (consider that Washington has harvested roughly $50 million in taxes during its first year of legalization). Though Oregon’s tax rate is lower than that of other legal-weed states, Measure 91 gives similar opportunities for massive windfalls of public dollars (for example, growers will be taxed $35 for each ounce of flowers). These taxes are earmarked for the state to spend on law enforcement and education, but the voter initiative precluded local entities from taking a cut. Even so, last February, Ashland passed a local tax on marijuana with the hope that its regulations might be grandfathered in; a decision that may provide massive tax dollar hauls. (Rough estimates indicate that Ashland could draw around $800,000 annnually from its marijuana tax.) Some 60 city and town councils around Oregon followed Ashland’s lead, and put together similar tax plans. But Bend City Council didn’t even raise a peep. Moreover, although there have been sincere concerns expressed about how the sale and consumption of marijuana will be handled by law enforcement, District Attorney John Hummel also was not present at the OLCC listening session, and no one representing Bend’s police department or Deschutes County sheriff’s department attended. The meeting did dispel some of the myths about legalization, reminding the crowd that public consumption will not be allowed—just as the OLCC does not allow public alcohol consumption, people won’t be able to simply walk down Bond Street blazing joints any more than they currently do. The main concerns raised by those in attendance were keeping marijuana away from children, and figuring out ways to prevent skunky aromas from bothering neighbors. Too bad no law enforcement was there to consider these citizen concerns and suggestions. To kick off the meeting, OLCC Board Chair Rob Patridge explained: “I did not vote for Measure 91, but I feel I have an obligation to carry out the will of the people.” And that is a welcomed attitude—whether an official personally agrees with the rule, he or she is required to craft regulations to best shape the public’s interests. Overall, residents seem to be curious and earnest about how legalization of marijuana will affect our communities. They are taking this seriously; why aren’t our elected officials?

SIDE NOTES

Farewell to Skyline Forest?

The forest’s sale casts doubt on future conservation efforts

BY ERIN ROOK

DESCHUTES LAND TRUST

BY ERIN ROOK

It’s a view that keeps building heights low and spirits high—the majestic, snow-capped Cascades, skirted by ponderosa forests. But the future of that view may be in jeopardy. That’s because the 33,000-acre swath of forestland west of Bend known as Skyline Forest—where Bendites mountain bike, hike, and ride horseback on user-created trails—doesn’t belong to the people of Oregon. Despite the access the public has enjoyed over the past decade, Skyline Forest is—like 34 percent of Oregon’s forests—privately owned. For the past decade, Deschutes Land Trust has been working to change that, negotiating with former landowners Fidelity National Financial to secure a deal to turn those 33,000 acres into a community forest. But those plans stalled last fall, and appeared to grind to an unexpected halt last week, when Fidelity announced it sold a nearly 200,000-acre parcel of land, including Skyline Forest, to Singapore-based Whitefish Cascade Forest Resources, LLC. The hope had been that Fidelity would accept a deal that allowed for development on a small portion of the land in exchange for selling the remainder to Deschutes Land Trust. In turn, the Trust intended to create a community forest, helping fund the sale by allowing a limited amount of logging, which would also help mitigate fire danger. But now, those hopes appear to be dashed. “The short answer is we don’t know what it means for the future,” Deschutes Land Trust Executive Director Brad Chalfant told the Source. “The fact of the matter is that all of the parties that had been trying to negotiate with Fidelity had stalled out over the past six months and this explains why. Fidelity was looking to sell all its properties as a package.” Included in that package is the Mazama Forest, land the Klamath Tribe had hoped to acquire to support the Klamath Basin Restoration Agreement (KRBA). “This is obviously a disappointment,” Don Gentry, Chairman of the Klamath Tribes, said in a release. “Land recovery is an essential bargained-for benefit of the KBRA. Nothing less than significant land recovery will work for the Klamath Tribes. We are committed to securing a land base that will provide balance in the Agreement and economic opportunity for our people. Without land recovery, the Agreement simply will not work for the Klamath Tribes.” Fidelity assumed a controlling interest in Cascade Timberlands, then owner of Skyline Forest, in May 2006 and notified Deschutes Land Trust that it was interested in pursuing a conservation transaction. For the next eight or so years, things seemed to be working in the forest’s favor. Oregon re-enrolled in the Federal Forest Legacy Program, and a bill passed in the Oregon legislature outlining a plan for Skyline Forests’ conservation, giving Fidelity five years to act.

But the clock ran out before a deal was cemented. And Fidelity opted to sell. “We are excited to monetize the value of Cascade for our shareholders,” said Fidelity National Financial Chairman William P. Foley, II, in a release. “We have been owners of Cascade for approximately eight years and believe it is in the best interest of our shareholders to monetize the value of this land at this time and seek another use for this cash in the hopes of maximizing the value of our FNFV assets.” Chalfant, of Deschutes Land Trust, said that while he has not yet made contact with the new owner, he is hopeful that they will be more cooperative than Fidelity. “We see this as an opportunity. Fidelity had been difficult to work with,” Chalfant said. “We’re hopeful we’ll be able to have a more direct and coherent dialogue.” Whitefish Cascade Forest Resources registered with the State of Oregon in October 2014. An attorney for the company—its only listed U.S. contact—has not responded to requests for comment. While the Land Trust is still interested in pursuing the community forest model with the new company, Chalfant says he isn’t married to that approach and is instead focused on the long game and whatever strategy leads to the forest’s conservation. “We’re not locked into a particular model. Ultimately our goal is to see the property conserved, available to public, and managed sustainably,” Chalfant said. “We’re committed to the longterm. We’re going to do everything we can to ensure the property is conserved for future generations.” But where Chalfant sees silver linings, Central Oregon LandWatch Executive Director Paul Dewey has a less rosy outlook. “We’re concerned that this is going to be a new serious threat for partitioning and development in that area, the kind we’ve been fighting for the past 10 years,” Dewey told the Source. “My concern is it’s bad enough having a Florida developer own it, and now Singapore? There’s even less appreciation for what this land has historically meant for this area.” He added that development of the forest land is bad for Central Oregon because it disturbs wildlife—mule deer and elk migrate through the areas—and because the forest is at high risk for fires. To wit, last summer’s Two Bulls fire burned parts of the forest and, Dewey said, would have destroyed a home that LandWatch blocked from being built a few years back. Though the area is zoned for forest use, that zoning allows one dwelling every 240 acres, meaning that the new owner could open it up to low-density development. Until he knows what Whitefish Cascade Forest Resource, LLC, intends to do with the land, Dewey said he’ll be watching out for county land use applications. “Frankly, any development in that area, given climate change and what we know now about fire risk after Two Bulls, doesn’t make sense,” Dewey said.

Deschutes County District Attorney John Hummel announced last Thursday that he will not file charges against Kevin Perry and Amanda Weinman in the shooting death of Shane Munoz on June 23, 2012. He explained at a press conference that, based on the available evidence and witness testimony, he is “confident” that a crime was not committed. Hummel discounted theories about a pre-existing relationship between the victim and the then-couple, saying he believes they did not meet prior to Perry and Weinman discovering Munoz in their home that tragic summer night. “We may never know why Shane Munoz ended up at Kevin Perry’s house,” Hummel said. “We do know there was no evidence that Shane entered the house to commit a burglary. But, as of now, the only person we know, who knows why Shane entered the house, is Shane.” Hummel also spoke to broader social issues raised by the case—including the gap between Bend’s haves and have-nots and the perception that money trumps justice— and said that while they are topics worthy of community conversation, they bear no direct relevance to Munoz’s death.

More than 300 people gathered at the Riverhouse Convention Center Thursday night to share their perspectives on the legalization of marijuana. The listening session, organized by the Oregon Liquor Control Commission, addressed a wide range of topics, with attendees holding up red, green, or yellow cards to indicate their position on the issues. Based on the cards and commentary from the crowd, it appeared that most present were involved or interested in getting involved in the marijuana industry. But there were concerns raised by audience members about the appeal and access of edibles (particularly gummy bears) to children and ensuring sufficient setbacks to prevent growhouse odors from disrupting neighbors. Recreational use becomes legal July 1 of this year, but pot shops are not likely to open for business until the end of 2016. While Bend already has an abundance of medical marijuana dispensaries, they have been banned in areas under the jurisdiction of Deschutes County since the Board of County Commissioners established a moratorium last March. But that may be about to change. That ordinance will sunset on May 1, and county staff are preparing for the anticipated repeal by drafting amendments to set a permitting process and standards of operation for dispensaries. Staff are proposing medical marijuana dispensaries be a “conditional use” in the Exclusive Farm Use (EFU) Zone and an “outright permitted” use in rural commercial (i.e. Tumalo, Terrebonne, Sunriver) and industrial zones. The proposals are open for public and agency comment. The Deschutes County Planning Commission will hold a public hearing March 12 and the Board of County Commissioners is expected to hear the proposal April 15.

FEBRUARY 26, 2015 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY / 9

Yee Haw! q h -

ver the past five decades, the demographics in America have dramatically shifted from rural to urban. In 1950, some half of Americans lived in rural areas, with lifestyles closer to the sensibility and demands of land than their urban counterparts. But by 2000, that balance had shifted to only one out of five Americans still living outside of cities—and farmers, ranchers and rural residents were an increasingly endangered species. But like a dying campfire, there are still embers glowing, especially in regions like Central Oregon, where the cowboy is still very much alive—both as a real life profession and as an ethos. In this year’s Made in Central Oregon, we round up a collection of small businesses that could keep a herd of cowboys and cowgirls happy—a hatmaker, leather goods workers, a coffee roaster and, of course, no campfire is complete without a guitar.

The Hat Makes The Woman

Cate Havstad is refashioning the cowboy—er, girl—hat ate Havstad believes in signs. While a student at University of California-Santa Cruz, she was struggling with whether formal education was the right path for her. A friend, musician Willy T. Porter, invited her to join on a road trip and film project—and to sweeten the deal, he offered her a vintage cowboy hat. “That first hat was pretty darn important,” explains Havstad. She remembers it as a whiskey brown, with a “telescope top”—and, most keenly, that it spoke to something about her personality and her dreams, and gave her a confidence to hit the open road. She loved that hat, and it served as a trigger. She traveled, and was introduced to musicians, and farmers, eventually settling down in Vancouver, B.C. But like any good cowgirl, eventually she started to become restless once again—and that’s when she returned to her car one day to discover another sign, that this favorite and first hat of hers had been chewed up by her puppy. It was a sign to move along, she explains as we talk at Lone Pine Coffee Roasters on Monday afternoon. She is dressed in dark denim jeans, a denim shirt and a flat brim hat that she says was inspired by Brigitte Bardot. Her blond hair rolls out from under the brim. Havstad is her own best advertisement for her hats.

“The way I dress and present myself,” she says, “is a sense of identity.” About two years ago, Havstad ended up in Sisters. She was looking for a place to ride horses, but also reached out to local and famed cowboy hat-maker Gene Baldwin and, for a year or so, started showing up at his shop three or so times a week, learning the tricks of hat making. “I’m authentically in love with this trade,” she says. “If these skills don’t get passed on, those traditions will just fade.” Havstad says that she greatly admires Baldwin’s work—“the perfect lines, the symmetry”—but after a year mentoring with him, she was looking to “play and get a bit funkier” with her own style and last May, she launched her own company. Although Havstad says that she is still living “hat to hat,” her products are quickly gaining popularity, and inroads, with musicians like Shaky Graves wearing her styles. She also has begun to increasingly draw inspiration from her immediate physical surroundings. While the bulk of felt for cowboy hats is imported from Tennessee, Havstad has begun to experiment with dying the fabric with rabbit brush and Oregon grape as part of her “hues of the High Desert.” “Style,” she says, “is totally regionally influenced.” Continues on page 11

The Micro Brew of Salsa

MATTHEW GRIMES

Locally-sourced ingredients to complement every dippable, dressable dish BY HAYLEY MURPHY

ix years ago, Perla and Bill Pearce packed up their life in Tuscon, Arizona, and moved north to Bend, Oregon. But they weren’t ready to leave the flavor of the southwest behind—and brought along with them their gourmet salsa company. With its now-somewhat geographically askew name, the Southwest Salsa Co. was created when the founders became exasperated with seeing the same old salsa each time they went to the grocery store. “You know the names, the [companies] that sell so many other products that they forgot to keep the salsa authentic, genuine and worthy for your family and friends,” says co-founder Perla. With each grocery salsa looking and tasting the same, Perla and Bill set out to create their authentic homestyle salsa, using fresh, local produce, and only natural preservatives. With its close proximity to the border, Arizona isn’t short on Mexican-style cuisine or salsa. But moving to Bend came with some new challenges, and opportunities—for starters, an untapped market and a new client base that may not yet understand that salsa isn’t just for tacos and burritos. “Salsa is a condiment that goes with just about everything,”

explains Perla. “From our morning eggs to sandwiches, wraps, salads; on burgers and steaks.” Currently, Bill and Perla have eight flavors, ranging from the mild Fire Roasted Mango for the fruit enthusiast, to the Hot Holy Moly for those “local pepperheads.” Each consumer, says Perla, has his or her own heat index and flavor profile, but for an all-around fresh flavor they recommended Liam’s Gringo Salsa, made with cilantro and real lime juice. “A mild-medium, fresh-tasting salsa, like a Pico de Gallo,” Perla says of Liam’s Gringo, which has won a mantle full of awards, including first place at the La Pine Fall Festival in 2012. This go-with-everything salsa has a smooth restaurant-style texture and strong citrus undertones. However, for a mild-medium, it still packs a punch. Southwest Salsa Co. doesn’t water down its open flame-roasted pepper flavors, leaving its salsas spicier than the usual fare. But with that extra spice also comes more flavor. Southwest Salsa Co. is sold at a variety of locations in Bend including Central Oregon Locavore, Newport Avenue Market, seasonal farmers’ markets, and on tacos at JC’s Bar & Grill.

Nomad Leather crafts eclectic leather accessories

MATTHEW GRIMES

BY ERIN ROOK

ore than a decade ago, brothers Damon and Nick Vracin were traveling down parallel paths in separate cities—Damon in San Diego, and Nick in Portland—gaining a foothold in their respective markets for their handcrafted leather accessories. But it wasn’t until the brothers moved to Central Oregon that Nomad Leather really started to take off. “We both dug leather and shared ideas over the phone and samples of our respective projects when we had family get-togethers,” Damon recalls. “We both moved to Bend seven years ago and finally got to join forces, combining our workshops and selling together at the local markets and festivals.” And it’s not just the craftsmanship that’s local. All Nomad’s leather is vintage, repurposed or sourced from a family-owned business in Portland. “Our customers—usually the coolest people on earth—are generally looking for something unique that is spawned by creativity and made the old-fashioned way,” Damon explains. What started with cuffs and bracelets quickly expanded into a wide range of leather goods including belts, clutches, small bags, utility pouches, growler carriers, wine carriers, beer holsters, pint sleeves, guitar straps and knickknacks like the “Pick Pocket,” a guitar pick holder on a key chain. Though crafting leather accessories is his job, Damon describes a creative process that

sounds more like laidback brotherly bonding. “Nick and I crank the music, crack a beer and just start making our goods, sometimes tag-teaming bigger projects like growler carriers and often just getting in our own worlds and bouncing ideas off one another when a creative block sets in,” Damon explains. While wrist wear remains the bread and butter of the business, the brothers also do complex custom work, such as intricate iPad cases and eclectic festival/utility belts. And Damon says motorcycle bags may be on the horizon. “Every year we do more festivals and develop a few new products and ideas,” Damon says. “Our growler carrier design we came up with a year and a half ago has brought us into the beer culture market, which has been awesome.” The company has also seen growth in retail markets, distributing its products in shops all across Bend, including Desperado, The Silver Otter, Sweet Tease Salon, Lulus boutique, Element 909, Cowgirl Cash, and The Cosmic Depot. Damon is quick to point out that each shop carries a customized line of Nomad Leather goods, curated based on that store’s individual style. Nomad Leather also sells its wares from its midtown workshop by appointment and online at etsy.com/shop/nomadleathernw. Continues on page 15

From the Forest to the Stage

Jayson Bowerman builds one-of-a-kind custom acoustic guitars in Bend BY ANNE PICK

he guitar. It’s iconic. Even as children, we’re not raised playing “air piano” or “air oboe.” It’s air guitar. No offense to those other instruments, but the guitar just has a certain coolness that’s both unmeasurable and unmatched by any other musical device. It seems only natural that the most beautiful guitars, both visually and audibly, would come from a place equally as rad as the instrument itself. Guitar making has become synonymous with Central Oregon. And, in Bend, Jayson Bowerman has been building amazing instruments for more than 15 years. Bowerman got his start as an apprentice under Kim Breedlove, of Breedlove Guitars,

and left his mark there—literally. The last guitars Bowerman designed for Breedlove, the Oregon series, feature a “Made in Bend, Oregon” hot stamp on the back of the neck so there is no confusion as to where they were built. In 2010, Bowerman struck out on his own, and Bowerman Guitars was born. He builds most of his guitars and mandolins for custom orders, but has guitars he has built for shows and festivals. For the last couple of years Bowerman has been working to create a handful of instruments for performing musicians and interested clients to try out. “It takes me six to eight weeks to build a guitar start to finish, and typically I am or-

dered out a few months as well, so picking a tune on one of my demo instruments is a good way to get a sense for what sets my guitars apart from factory offerings,” Bowerman says. When it comes to building acoustic guitars, it’s all about the tonewoods. It seems for as many species of trees available, there are equally as many options for tonewoods. According to Bowerman, the decisions come from what type of tone the customer wants to elicit from the guitar. Not only does Bowerman build each guitar, but he does some of his own wood harvesting as well. He’s built one instrument from all Oregon-sourced wood, which in-

v

cludes fittings made from mountain mahogany. Mountain mahogany is extremely dense, difficult to find, and hard to cut and cure. Bowerman’s father helped him pull a salvage permit to harvest the wood, which made the fittings for that guitar even more special. “I recently finished an F-5 mandolin and Weissenborn-style guitar from a giant fiddleback maple tree, which fell over on my grandparent’s farm about 20 years ago,” says Bowerman. “I hope in time to make many more family instruments from that tree, which my grandparents, uncle, cousins and friends helped me harvest.” Continues on page 17

Bacon, Eggs and Coffee!

Gunpowder Ranch has breakfast covered

he scene is bucolic as I arrive at Gunpowder Roasting Ranch. The sun is warm, the air is fresh; goat and pigs are in pasture. At 10 acres, Gunpowder Ranch is modest and easily missed when driving along Marsh Road just a few miles northeast of Tumalo, but it is not soon forgotten. Started just over a year ago by Bay Area transplants Sonia Consani and Krista Vegter, Gunpowder Ranch has a uniquely themed approach toward ranching. Rather than focusing on high quality animal products alone (pigs and chickens in this instance), they also offer high quality Fair Trade Organic coffee. That’s right, Gunpowder Ranch is all about breakfast: Bacon, eggs and coffee! Originally inspired to roast coffee and start a fruit or-

chard, Consani and Vegter shifted their vision to raising heritage pigs in the hopes of eventually starting a local charcuterie. Gunpowder Ranch is home to 33 beautiful Rhode Island red hens, although a handful of hens have escaped the coop and moved in to the barn with the pigs, which Consani and Vegter are happy to abide. “If they don’t mind being bossed around by the pigs, we are happy letting them be,” says Vegter. The ranch also boasts four breeds of pasture-raised heritage pigs, including a regal Tamworth named Ginger. Ginger, with his auburn hair, is a “rock star” on the farm, says Vegter, and is the progenitor for the ranch’s best selling bacon, which has been selling out at Bend’s Locavore

for the past year. In fact, most of the ranch’s pork products have been selling out and with Whole Foods soon to be carrying their products, Consani and Vegter have their hands full keeping up with demand—which is fine with the ranching newbies. “I like the challenge,” exclaims Vegter. Their coffee is available at Locavore, Whole Foods, and Newport Avenue Market, and pork products are carried by Locavore, Whole Foods (soon) and School House Produce. They also offer drop-offs at the Locavore and direct delivery for orders over $25, and welcome people directly at the ranch.

The Cowboy’s Six-Pack

Want to be as rugged as possible? Drink this. BY KEVIN GIFFORD

What’s the difference between a beer...and a cowboy beer? A sort of weather-beaten, leathery manliness, perhaps? Well, craft beer’s got you covered there—have you seen some of the beards people lining the Crux bar are sporting these days? Ignoring the fact that real cowboys would likely prefer cheap whiskey, a good cowboy beer should involve several factors: powerful, mouth-filling tastes; an affinity for nature and the open land; and (if all else fails) potency. Along those lines, here are six bottles and cans to line the saddlebags with: The Cowboy (Evil Twin): Well, there you go, right? It’s got a cowboy right on the label. “I need to know what kind of beer cowboys drink,” brewer Jeppe Jarnit-Bjergsø writes on the label, “as I have recently become one. I want to be the best cowboy I can be, and I think drinking the correct beer is important.” In his book, that means a medium-bodied pilsner with a hint of smoke on the tail end. Knotty Blonde (Three Creeks): Sisters is full of cowboys, of course, or at least folks pretending to be one for a living. The Fivepine Chocolate Porter might be their best seller, but the touch of honey malt added to this lighter ale makes it one partner you wouldn’t mind spending all evening with. Willet Bourbon Barrel Cavatica Stout (Fort George): Freshly released at the Festival of Dark Arts two weeks ago, the Astoria-based brewery’s latest stout is quite a monster, aged in barrels from Willet Distillery in Kentucky and clocking in at just under

10 percent alcohol. Bonus: It’s got the same whiskey burn you’d experience taking an actual swig out of the ol’ jug on the range. (Can one earn a DUII on a horse?) Pub Beer (10 Barrel): Being honest for a moment, if you see an actual ranch hand at a bar in Bend, it’ll probably be a dollar PBR you see in his hand. But let’s pretend he’s one of those rare locavore cowboys. In that case, he’ll start drinking this canned pale lager—“requests for a glass will be denied”— as 10 Barrel’s menu puts it, and won’t stop until the cows come home in search of him. Sahati (The Ale Apothecary): If the cowboy ethos is all about oneness with the land, Paul Arney’s living the dream already. His Sahati ale, brewed inside a hollowed-out spruce tree lined with branches and needles, is the definition of self-sustained brewing—“The process impacts the flavor profile at least as much as the ingredients themselves,” he says. Barrel-Aged Rocky Mountain Oyster Stout (Wynkoop): Originally conceived as an April Fool’s joke in 2012, this stout is aged in oak and infused with 25 points of bull testicles. That can’t possibly be any more cowboy’y. You are quite literally drinking cow. (You’ll have to travel to Colorado to score a can, but the bragging rights are worth it, no?)

And some more local products to fill your saddlebag with:

Lava Love to stay clean. Soap, bath powder and facial mask with volcanic ash and clay. Tracker Packer for the cowboy who wanders out of cell phone range. Winner of the “Nifty 50” best new products award from Powersports Business magazine, a device to help geographically signal a lost or hurt off-roader. Straw Propellor to get the day started. Made in Redmond, a woman-owned and GMO-free company with 15 flavors of oatmeal and five flavors of muesli. Bronwen Jewelry to stay fashionable. Earrings and necklaces designed for active, athletic, yet stylish women.

Nashelle Jewelry, locally-made earrings and rings recently appeared in the country music video, “Fly,” by Maddie and Tae. C.W. Irwin (by Oregon Spirits Distillery), a sweet but strong whiskey.

Crystal Bowersox was a star long before American Idol

SUGGESTS... BY ANNE PICK

BY AUBRY HOLLINGSHEAD

Jive Coulis As part of Broken Top Bottle Shop’s Brews & Band series, which features free live music in the company of many fine brews, Jive Coulis brings its classic rock and roll from southern Oregon to Bend. This is the type of funky, rock and blues jams that sounds pulled from Almost Famous. Guitar shredding, bluesy rock to get feet moving, booties shaking, heads banging and your beer sudsy. 7 pm. Thu., Feb. 26. Broken Top Bottle Shop & Ale Café, 1740 NW Pence Ln, Ste 1. Free.

You know what they say: you can spend your entire life as a performing musician, but compete on one season of the highest-rated singing show in America and that’s all people remember you for. Aside from that one time Crystal Bowersox was the runner-up on American Idol, she’s best known for her powerfully soulful vocals and rootsy guitar stylings. “It wasn’t for fame and fortune,” says Bowersox, of auditioning for American Idol. “It was to provide my son with a better life.” After the birth of her son, Bowersox realized she had a choice: either find a way to support her family with her music, or... Actually there was no second option. “I don’t believe in backup plans,” says Bowersox. “My whole philosophy in life has always been, there’s no plan A or plan B, there’s just the plan. The minute you start planning and preparing for failure, then you’re doomed for it.” On American Idol, Bowersox’s folksy style clashed with the show in a way that made its spectacle seem ridiculous around her. She glided through the competition, standing out for her obvious talent and laid-back nature. “The weirdest thing was getting used to all of the tricks that Hollywood plays on viewers,” says Bowersox. “That’s not really what my show is all about. I really like to give the audience the most authentic Crystal experience they can have.” Bowersox’s first post-Idol album release, Farmer’s Daughter, featured heavily-produced folk/country tracks with the occasional tint of pop. But when a shake-up at RCA led to Bowersox being dropped

from Jive records, she found a home with indie label Shanachie Entertainment for her next release, All That for This. Produced by Steve Berlin of Los Lobos, Bowersox’s sophomore album boasts a more raw, authentic style than its predecessor; full of mellow Americana with hints of twangy folk and raucous country-rock. Bowersox subsequently followed up with a self-released EP of pre-Idol songs called Promises, and a Christmas single, “Coming Out for Christmas,” which was her way of coming out to the world as bisexual. “Even within the LGBTQ community, there’s a lot of misconceptions and misunderstandings when it comes to bisexuality,” says Bowersox. “I felt that it was important for me to come out publicly for kids who are struggling with these issues of acceptance, and accepting themselves.” As for her master plan to exploit American Idol for the funds to raise a well-adjusted kid, Bowersox reports general success. “So far it’s looking like he’s going to outshine me someday, and I’m perfectly fine with that.” Bowersox is joined at the Bend show with musical musings from Portland artist East Forest.

March into March BY JOSH GROSS

February goes so fast. You blink and it’s suddenly March, which is the best month, by virtue of it being both a noun, a verb and a style of music in and of itself. To celebrate, the Source put together a mix of marches, and songs about marching. There’s classics like John Williams’ iconic “Imperial March,” from Star Wars, a tune from Oregon faves MarchFourth, and a couple offerings from some of the nation’s premiere college marching bands. And as the cherry on top of all that marching, we threw in a couple rock tracks from bands like NIN and Baroness. It’s fully March-tastic. SCAN THE QR CODE

The Sweatband Bust out the terry cloth headbands and wear something you don’t mind getting sweaty. The Sweatband delivers on what its name promises—a band whose funky jams make dancers out of even the most shy wallflowers. Dancing all night to this homegrown funk band guarantees sweat, the good kind; the kind that causes a person’s hair to stick all over their face and neck. The kind where a break in songs results in a frantic run to the water fountain to rehydrate before diving back in and dancing for the rest of the night. Check out the band’s new arrangement, complete with horn section. 9 pm. Sat., Feb. 28. Volcanic Theatre Pub, 70 SW Century Dr. $5.

Ultra Violent Rays L.A.’s Ultra Violent Rays is unlike most bands coming through Central Oregon— darkwave, electronic goth pop that is dancey, but not quite in the same way as a funk or bluegrass band. The duo consists of vocalist and bassist Cooper Gillespie, and drummer/sequencer Greg Gordon. Think a modern-day bundle of Siouxsie and the Banshees, Joy Division and Portishead. Female fronted, spacey sounding electro pop that’s dark, sexy and danceable? Yes, please! Our indie rock wishes have been granted. 9 pm. Sat., Feb. 28. Astro Lounge, 939 NW Bond St. $10.

An Orchestral Treaty

We Have Spoken lifts up Native American history through song BY ERIN ROOK

Inspired by the poetic writings of Native Americans from the 1400s to present, composer Clyde Thompson’s concert-length cantata, We Have Spoken: Voices from Native America, spins those stories and historical accounts into rich musical tapestry rooted in classical orchestral sensibilities. There are no traditional Native American sounds here—no drums, no chanting. “The music is my own,” Thompson says. “I made a decision from the get-go not to try to imitate their music. I just stuck to my own personal expression that I felt moved to compose in reaction to the texts.” The texts come in large part from a book he stumbled up while touring in Boston in the early 1990s, I Have Spoken: American History through the Voices of the Indians, compiled by Virginia Irving Armstrong. A collection of oratory focusing on speeches about Indian-white relations and treaty-making negotiations, the writings inspired Thompson to begin work on a concert-length cantata that unfolded over two decades.

“I was particularly struck by the poetic quality of Indians’ words, especially the frequent use of similes drawn from nature, and the simplicity and directness of the language,” Thompson wrote in the program notes from his May performance of the cantata with the Central Oregon Symphony. “Several of the passages in the book sparked musical ideas, and I quickly realized that I had my subject for a choral piece that I needed to compose as part of my doctoral studies [at the University of Missouri-Kansas City].” Over the following years, he added to the work sporadically, always intending to craft it into a full cantata. A stripped down version of the piece—a choir accompanied by two pianos and percussion—premiered in 2002 in Chicago and made its first appearance locally with the Cascade Chorale in 2003. But the muse continued to speak to Thompson, and We Have Spoken evolved into a more complex composition for a full orchestra. That version was performed for the first time in May, with the Central Oregon Mastersingers and Central

Oregon Symphony, and Thompson has just released a recording of that live performance. “I think the orchestra collaboration didn’t change the music, but rather finished it,” Thompson explains. “Of course, the experience of performing and directing the piece was far less intimate, and more technical, with the orchestra involved than with just a choir and two pianos, so some of the warm-fuzzy experience was lost. But on the balance, far more was gained by hearing the accompaniments come to full fruition in the orchestral sounds.” The Central Oregon Mastersingers, a group Thompson founded in 1995, strips back down to its vocal core for a 10 Year Anniversary retrospective performance this weekend. Singers will perform their favorite pieces from over the years. Singers’ Choice: Central Oregon Mastersingers 10 Year Anniversary 7:30 pm. Saturday, Feb. 28.

CULTURE Poetry to the People

Get Lit brings literary empowerment to MUSE Conference BY ERIN ROOK

As a teenager, Diane Lane couldn’t be bothered with poetry. Despite the passion her teachers tried to impart, she just couldn’t get into poems about flora and fauna, written by dead white dudes. “I didn’t give a hoot about flora,” Lane tells the Source. “I was from New Jersey. So I cared about the height of my hair. And who I was socially. And where I was going in the world. There weren’t any poems about things like that.” It wasn’t until she was a young adult that she discovered poetry that spoke to her—Walt Whitman’s Leaves of Grass first broke the ice—and came to recognize poetry’s power, expressiveness, and accessibility. Today, she shares that transformative force with youth through Get Lit-Words Ignite, a nonprofit program that offers poetry-based literacy curriculum as well as opportunities for students to perform both classical poetry and their original responses. Lane’s innovative curriculum has been selected by President Obama’s TurnAround Arts Committee to be placed in California’s lowest performing elementary schools and earned her the Presidential Lifetime Volunteer Service Award. She brings her inspirational approach to youth empowerment to Bend for the 2015 MUSE Conference, where she will

speak on the power of art to empower youth, and help lead a poetry workshop for teens. Source Weekly: Why is teen literacy especially important for girls/young women? Diane Lane: Spoken word poetry gives girls the opportunity to express the parts of themselves they don’t usually reveal. The writing of a poem is not finished until you feel sated and spent. You only get to that place by telling the deepest truth you can tell. That truth can be funny, it can be clever, it can be nuanced and hidden, or even scholarly, but it is not superficial or pat or untrue. Interesting art requires some kind of honesty. Girls live in a world where they are encouraged to “cover up” their acnes, scars, opinions, weight—and reveal, even flaunt, what has been deemed pleasing. It’s liberating for girls to realize that they matter for a whole other set of criteria. And that their first obligation is to tell the truth to themselves. And then often they discover how their truth can move and liberate others. Teen literacy is important for girls because knowledge—about anything—brings confidence. SW: What is the relationship between literacy and empowerment, and what role do you see Get Lit playing in that?

DL: When you know something, anything, you are empowered—filled with power. So again—it’s really not about being “literate” as in “reading a lot.” It’s about knowing whatever you are passionate about deeply. One gift of Get Lit is that it doesn’t require that people who are not inclined to read books to read and read and read. It just asks that you go deeply into whatever you do read. And I mean deep. You have to listen to poetry; you have to claim the poem that speaks to you—actually raise your hand and reach for it; you have to memorize it; and then you have to perform it. Learn about the person who wrote it. And then you have to respond to it by writing a poem of your own. This increases someone’s confidence. Greatly. Enters them into a world that was heretofore restricted. Gives them a secret society. Makes them hungry for more. “A specialist in a particular brand of study.” A scholar. SW: What impact—measured or anecdotal—do you see the program having on graduation rates? DL: We always say, “Get Lit builds scholars not statistics.” Most recently, one of our Get Lit Players, Walter Finnie, told his story of dropping out of high school and selling drugs before finding Get Lit and turning his life around. The Get Lit Curriculum introduced Walter to Langston Hughes. Walter learned that Langston attended Lincoln University, so Walter applied to Lincoln. He was accepted and today is a freshman on the honor roll. His poem, “Stand Clear,” about his journey won first place in a national contest about the drop-out problem called “Raise UP.” Ninety-five percent of our Get Lit Players go to college and over 70 percent with scholarships. SW: Oregon has one of the lowest high school graduation rates in the country. Do you think Get Lit would work in rural environments, as well as urban ones? DL: Absolutely! It is currently being implemented near Bakersfield [California], which has the absolute lowest literacy rate in the nation. The magic all starts with “claiming” a poem. Poems are like medicine. You choose the right one that speaks to you and then through memorization, it does its work transforming and elevating you, and then your life. For people who struggle with reading, poems are short. They are not intimidating like a book. And just because you struggle to read, doesn’t mean that you are not brilliant. That you are not insightful. That you are not struggling heroically with huge issues every single day. Poems are short, but they are deep. They give the mind and the heart and the soul something to chew on. MUSE Women’s Conference March 6-8. Various locations. $350 for full weekend pass; access to individual events starts at $10. Register at museconference.org

ART WATCH

Sibling Hatred

BY KELSEY ROOK

2nd Street’s latest is intense, but lightly comical BY PHIL BUSSE

NEIL COSTELLO

Nestled in the Blue Lakes wilderness near Sisters is an isolated oasis where small groups of artists are invited each year to spend a month-long residency creating and collaborating at the expansive Caldera Arts Center. What does a month spent in the Cascade foothills without cell phone service in the dead of winter inspire? Well, Caldera will showcase the work of the seven artists who, for the last four weeks, called the Arts Center 16 miles west of Sisters their home. On Saturday, Feb. 28 from 1 to 3 pm, visitors can explore the creative work generated by the group and learn more about the residency experience and accommodations (applications for 2016 will close June 15).

More than a frame to hold the actors and the storyline, the set—as well as the soundtrack—plays a central role in the charm of 2nd Street Theater’s current production of What Ever Happened to Baby Jane. Front-and-center is a stripped-down space that does triple-time as a 1910 cabaret, a 1935 movie set and a 1962 living room in an L.A. mansion once owned by Rudolf Valentino, depending on what the scene demands. This space is flanked by a raised platform that works as a second-story bedroom where an aging Hollywood starlet is essentially held captive by her older and often-drunk sister. Two additional smaller sets are set back even farther, and function as a neighbor’s living room and a kitchen. Fitting these four separate, but interconnected, sets into a rather modest space creates a spatial trick that simultaneously accentuates the story’s claustrophobia as well as allowing for some neat tricks, like flashbacks and split-scenes usually reserved for TV episodes of “24.” It is a truly dynamic set—and provides the basis for a vice-tightening story about two sisters locked in a sibling rivalry. Appropriate for a storyline that germinates from vaudeville, right from the first note of the play, the tone is set by its staging and music. The production begins more as a cabaret performance than traditional theater as a young “Baby Jane” sings tunes to the audience—ending the scene by taking requests. It is fun and interactive staging. It is music that also sets up the next scene, as the timeline jumps to 1935—Hollywood’s so-called golden age. By this point, vaudeville has faded to the background and “talkies” with stars like Baby Jane’s younger sister, Blanche Hudson, have taken the foreground. The resulting jealousy sets the dramatic tension for the remainder of the story, as Baby Jane deals with her faded fame and with a sibling that more than eclipses her as a

celebrity and as a decent human being. The scene—and 1935— ends with an implied, off-stage car wreck that leaves Blanche bound to a wheelchair. (Again, with clever staging, a newsboy walks through the audience hawking the headlines about the accident.) From here, the storyline leaps to the meat of the matter, as Blanche tries to escape her sister’s intensifying cruelty. Again, with a musical interlude marking the chronological and cultural passage of time, it is now 1962, and the sisters are pinned in a poisonous, but subdued, battle; vaguely reminiscent of the 1944 thriller Gaslight. The role of the elderly older sister in these final scenes is a bit overacted. Now in her early ’70s, “Baby” Jane is often-drunk and constantly despising her once-famous sister but also relying on her. Preening on stage more like Granny from Beverly Hillbillies than Gloria Swanson in Sunset Blvd., the role is played by Mary Kilpatrick (who also designed the wonderful set). Director Howard Schor admits that this comic staging was intentional. “We spoof it up a lot,” he explains, “because the story is so dark otherwise.” And, indeed, there is lightheartedness sparkling throughout the production (note the gabbing movie director at the beginning of Act Two, played with charming bluster by Ben Golden), and thankfully so. At two-plus hours, the comic relief is welcome for a script that otherwise could have become far too Othello and suffocating. “What Ever Happened to Baby Jane” 2nd Street Theater, 220 NE Lafayette 7:30 Friday & Saturday, 3 pm Sunday, through March 15 $19 general, $16 student/senior

Interest in the program grew significantly in the past year with a 60 percent increase in applications for 2015 residency positions, according to Artist in Residence director Elizabeth Quinn. “The residents chosen represent a highly competitive, professional field of artists this year,” said Quinn. Among those selected for the residency program is sculptor Alison K Walsh from New Haven, Connecticut. Walsh, a biologist and former zookeeper, works at the intersection of art and science and finds inspiration in genetics, the environment, and the animal world. “As an adopted child,” explained Walsh, “I am drawn to discovering the parts of the whole which are a product of environmental forces, and what characters can be manipulated and changed via external pressures.” Her Caldera-inspired work features samples of Purple Heart wood she found in a Bend lumber yard, along with printings made with iodine and bandages, tools she became acquainted with after cutting herself carving during her first week here. She calls the printings “a new and healing product of Caldera.” The low relief sculptures and printings that Walsh will show February 28 are the product of her engagement in a naturally breathtaking environment with 24-hour access to well-equipped studios and the collective genius of a group of other creative thinkers. “Being here is like nothing I have ever experienced,” said Walsh. “It is peaceful, I am outdoors each day and the world seems much larger here.” Though their stay in Central Oregon is brief, Caldera’s resident artists impact the community year-round by their contributions to mentorship programs aiding underserved youth in Warm Springs, Madras, Redmond, and Bend. “They contribute to our week-long in-school residencies at our partner middle schools, teach Saturday and after school high school workshops, present to our middle school classes and contribute curriculum for our mentor staff to use,” said Quinn. Caldera’s mission, to support children with limited opportunities through arts education, serves young minds that may fill the rosters of artist residency programs in years to come.

Overheard conversation between two seniors in a Bend café on a Sunday morning: “Hey, what are you drinking there?” the first one asks. “It’s kombucha!” the second replies enthusiastically. “It’s supposed to make me more energetic, and help my digestive system…and make me smarter, ha!” That’s right, kombucha and all of its alleged wonderful benefits are becoming widely popular, and a mainstream beverage staple in Bend. Believed to be brewed first in northeast China before reaching into eastern Russia in the early 20th century, and then springboarding into Europe, kombucha is a fermented drink made with tea, sugar, bacteria and yeast. Herbs and fruit juices are added for enhanced flavor and health benefits. Over the past decade, the fizzy tonic has grown rapidly as a trendy beverage, with claims including improving digestion, supporting weight loss, increasing energy, cleansing and detoxing, and supporting the immune system. Although a century-old drink, this recent popularity has been supported by—and spurned on—a cottage industry of kombucha producers. Humm Kombucha, founded by Michelle Mitchell and Jamie Danek, is the Deschutes Brewery of Bend’s kombucha scene; that is, it pioneered the industry here in 2009. Since then, Humm opened the first kombucha tasting room at its family-friendly brewery on NE Second Street, which offers brewery tours, growler fills, and a fireplace hang out. Humm has grown to become one of the largest draft kombucha brewers in the country and is found in Bend grocery stores, gas stations, and growler-fill locations, including the Westside Pharmacy drive-thru on Century Drive. Humm currently offers nine kinds of kombucha, including Original (unflavored), and ranging from recognizable teas like mate and chai, to refreshing flavors like pomegranate lemonade and blueberry mint. Mixing and matching flavors is also encouraged. I sampled Sunburst, combining strawberry lemonade and lemon ginger: invigorating and not too sweet. Brew Dr. Kombucha (BDK) is produced by Portland-based Townshend’s Tea Company, which has a teahouse in downtown Bend. BDK has also been around since 2009, kicking off the kombucha craze alongside Humm. BDK is organic and raw, made from Townshend’s delicious variety of teas, organic medicinal herbs and organic sugar. BDK is available in bottles and on tap in eight different flavors: Clear Mind, Nutritonic, Superberry, White Rose, Spiced Apple, Lemon Ginger Cayenne, Love, and Just Ginger. Each BDK flavor offers variations of the same basic health benefits: improving mental clarity, aiding circulation and digestion and supporting the immune system. In addition, different herbs and teas are incorporated into the brew for effects like aromatherapy and relaxation, as well as enhanced flavor. Bucha Buena is among the newest kombucha producers. Inspired by the growth of the craft beer scene in Bend, kombucha homebrewer Brooke Moore opened Bucha Buena during the summer of 2014. Buena Bucha offers five flavors made with 100 percent Oregon fruit and local teas: Blackberry Lime, Raspberry, Strawberry, Sweet Tart (a cherry blend), and Blueberry Ginger. Check back with Bucha Buena for seasonal flavors like Watermelon Lime, made with hand-juiced watermelon. Although it’s not being bottled yet, kombucha enthusiasts can find Bucha Buena on tap at all the standard Bend locations: Mother’s, Growler Phil’s, Growler Guys, Parrilla, Jackson’s Eastside, Good Life, and more. Zen Kombucha, also opened in Bend in 2014, offers “craft brew for your body, mind, and spirit.” Zen Kombucha, owned by long-time Bend residents Keoki and KD McKee, uses locally sourced organic green teas and non-GMO, organic fresh fruits. Look for Zen Kombu-

cha flavors like Pineapple-Hibiscus, Blueberry-Orange, Marionberry, and Tangelo Turmeric on tap at Growler Phil’s, Riverside Market and Crow’s Feet Commons. Venture Fermenters also opened in Bend in 2014. Using fresh, local ingredients, Venture creates tasty kombucha flavors like Flower Power, The Great Pumpkin and Lavender Limeade, which can be found on tap at Central Oregon Locavore, Parrilla and Velvet. Eventually, you can expect to see more varieties of healthful fermented drinks from Venture.

Beer Events

Ever since its debut in 2013 with the Tough Love barrel-aged imperial stout, Crux Fermentation Project’s [BANISHED] series has represented the most avant-garde experimental side of the brewery. The 2014 version of Freakcake officially came out last week—and to celebrate, Crux also offered a four-pack at the brewery. Freakcake is a barrel-aged Oud Bruin ale (Dutch for “old brown”), a type of beer originating in the Flemish-speaking part of Belgium. Brewed with heavy roasted malts, lemon and orange zest, the beer is then allowed to sit around in barrels for half a year, with Brettanomyces yeast added to induce secondary fermentation and put a bit of Belgian-style funk on the nose and palate (don’t expect extreme Duchesse de Bourgogne-style sourness, though). The result is a dark 10.5-percent that’s rich in complexity, with a taste package that only improves as it’s cellared, allowing the alcohol burn to taper off and the added sour and dark-fruit flavors to better take center stage. [BANISHED] beers aren’t cheap, with 375ml bottles usually in the range of $12-$14, but the investment can pay dividends to patient Belgian and sour-beer fans. And said fans are now stretching their wallets a bit further with Crux’s One-Off [BANISHED] Variety four-pack, a selection of bourbon barrel-aged Freakcake variants—one “naked” apart from the bourbon, one with Deglet Nour dates, one with Oregon-grown cranberries, and one with Zante currants added. The four bombers cost a whopping $116, making the pack not exactly the happy-hour PBR drinker’s first pick, but early reports indicate that it’s Crux’s most ambitious set of beers yet, with the currant version’s joyously fruity palate already shining through. (Sadly, given they only made around 150 bottles of each type, there’s no guarantee any will be left at Crux by the time you read this. Hit up your beer-geek friends instead.)

Boulder Bash Blows Up

Bend Rock Gym climbing competition goes big, and goes home!

For the past five years, the Bend Rock Gym has been hosting a competitive bouldering series called “Boulder Bashes.” But, these events have largely been self-contained to the climbers there to show off their skills. That is, until last weekend. On Saturday, the Bend Rock Gym hosted its final “Boulder Bash” of the season—and, Bend’s first ever cash prize climbing competition. The idea behind the series, explained head setter and impassioned climber Joey Jannsen, was “to try our best to let the climbing community have fun.” Since launching in 2009, the events have garnered popularity for local climbers—and, given that success, explains Jannsen, “we decided we would try and do something a little bigger.” And, this past weekend, a “little bigger” translated into more than just cash prizes for the top male and female competitors, but also a noisy and festive gathering. More than 70 competitors participated, mostly from around the region. There was a live DJ set up to emcee the event. Silver Moon Brewing provided beer. Humm Kombucha was on the

scene, and Trader Joe’s joined in by providing food. And, of course, Metolius along with Entreprises, Mountain Supply and others donated prizes. The competition began with a preliminary round, also called the Redpoint Round, during which competitors were given two hours to accumulate as many points as possible by climbing (“sending”) a route (“problem”). Each problem was awarded a certain number of points based upon its difficulty. Send the four hardest problems, earn a spot in the finals. But despite the competitive nature of this event, participants could and did work together to complete the problems; sharing “beta” (information) and encouraging each other to the top of the wall. Climbing veteran Logan Carr, who qualified for the final round, said the redpoint “format was great, and it kept in style with what climbing is all about.” Alex Borst, the eventual winner of the event, agreed, adding that it “allowed for a lot of camaraderie.” The final round took on a decidedly different format from

the qualifying; an “onsight” format, which means the top five ranked females and males were given two minutes to preview, but not touch, each of the four final problems. To eliminate what would otherwise be a clear advantage for the final competitor, the finalists also had to stay “blind” (backs turned) to how their competitors were climbing, and each competitor was given five minutes to work each problem. Despite the highly competitive format, the vibe in the gym remained incredibly supportive. The crowd cheered with equal enthusiasm for each of the 10 finalists, even when Alex Borst of Portland and Cameron Thomson of Medford beat out locals for top prizes. Impressed—and admittedly shocked by the event’s scope of success—Jannsen is already eager to plan for next year. “More people, and a larger cash purse,” he says. This April, the Sport Climbing Series begins, with divisional championships at Bend Rock Gym this June.

Ghost Towns BY CORBIN GENTZLER

Growing up in the west, few things set my childhood imagination on fire like the dilapidated remains of once-booming frontier towns. As it turns out, they have that same effect on my somewhere-north-of-thirtysomething imagination as well. I was delighted to discover a slew of ghost towns within daytrip distance of Bend. This six-hour loop takes you by a number of historic sites and through a trio of towns where, I swear, you can close your eyes and feel the history of days passed. It’s worth noting that, once off Highway 97, the roads here can be questionable and fences indicate private property whether posted or not. Ashwood Just 32 miles northeast of Madras, this dusty old ranch town serves as the gateway for numerous abandoned mines in the area. Like much of Central and Eastern Oregon, the land here was first held by Sahaptin and Northern Paiute people before they were forcibly relegated to reservations or killed. White settlers here raised wool both before and after the discovery of gold and the subsequent boom/bust. Today, little else but a few residents remain. The town features some still-standing historic buildings and is said to be a rock-hounder’s dream.

Donnybrook Nine and a half miles due east of Ashwood and four miles from the Axehandle Mine on NE Gosner Road sit the remains of what was once Donnybrook; a.k.a., Kilts, a.k.a., Axehandle. Look for the ruins of the old schoolhouse. Head another 1.8 miles down the road and check out the remains of the Queen Oregon Mines; there are no buildings, but a few mine shafts remain. Horse Heaven Eight miles east of Queen Oregon is perhaps the most intriguing, if the least accessible, of the three sites—that of the fenced-off remains of Horse Heaven. While other mines in the area are known for precious metals, the mines at Horse Heaven produced mercury. The area, which was once a town, sat across the road from the mine. Fire swept through and took the whole place out sometime mid-century. One can peer through the fence, but the area inside is now a Department of Environmental Quality super-fund site, so best to look but not touch.

Environmentalism on Film

Telluride Mountain Films captures the adventurer’s spirit BY PHIL BUSSE

Since the Telluride Mountain Film Festival launched in 1979, the definition of “environmentalist” has both broadened and become much more diverse. Likewise, the collection of films for this annual festival—and its subsequent tour of short films around the country—has become more complicated and more nuanced about the definition it provides for modern-day environmentalism. Duke & The Buffalo is a typical entry, an engaging profile of a swath of land in the Southwest where buffalo, yes, roam free, and stiff-backed cowboys still exist. It is a sundrenched film, with thundering footage of cowboys rounding up (or trying to) herds of wild buffalo. It is also a great exposition about modern-day conservation, a mindset that instead of pitting ranchers’ use of natural resources against a purist desire to preserve every square inch of land has learned to protect both the bison and the ranchers’ lifestyle. This message is hardly heavy-handed, but is smartly delivered with interviews from a Nature Conservancy rep and

with a-ha moments by the ranchers. Mostly, though, it is just a wonderful visit to a remote land and lifestyle. A less traditional film for the festival, The Record Breaker is a curious entry that, at first glance, doesn’t seem to fit the mold of “environmental,” but once all told, truly captures the spunk and curiosity that lies at the heart of most adventurers. After all, the tagline for the festival is “celebrating indomitable spirit.” Ashrita Furman holds some 350 Guinness records, from balancing a lawn mower on his chin the longest, to walking 10 meters in the world’s heaviest shoes. The film loosely traces his attempt to scale Machu Picchu on stilts, but the real thrust of the movie is the idea that physical exploration is a means, as Furman says, to a “deeper meaning to life.” He is a smart Jewish kid from a traditional Bronx family (his dad is a successful attorney), who jumped the mainstream tracks. Now in his 60s, Furman runs a health food store and has crafted a full-time hobby out of pursuing and

breaking Guinness records; some are hilariously fun to watch on the screen (like long-distance hobby horsing) and Furman is low-key charming. With echoes of the family tension from Into the Wild, the story is layered with interviews with his parents, who wanted a more traditional pathway and lifestyle for their son, but eventually embraced his pursuits. “A lot of the records,” the younger Furman admits, “are kid’s stuff—jumping, hopping—but it just makes me happy.” Later in the movie, his dad concludes that his son is probably the happiest person in the world, “and isn’t that what every parents wants for their kid?” A truly sweet and inspiring 22-minute profile.

FOCUS Will Smith and Margot Robbie as con artists getting ready to take down some marks sounds pretty delightful. Even though Smith’s movie star power has somewhat dimmed over the last few years, people forget that when he’s given a strong role, he tends to knock it out of the park.

Kingsman has Colin Firth using a bulletproof umbrella and beating a bunch of ass while never breaking a sweat. It also has Samuel L. Jackson dressing like Jay-Z, talking with a lisp and hellbent on world domination. I mean, sure, this could be one of the worst movies ever made, but it won’t be. It will be gloriously, batshit insane. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Redmond Theatre, Sisters Movie House

THE LAZARUS EFFECT A group of medical students figure out a way to bring the dead back to life, but when the dead are reanimated, they’re bringing some nasty stuff back with them. I saw this movie before when it was called Flatliners and had Julia Roberts, Kiefer Sutherland, Oliver Platt, Kevin Bacon and one of the damned Baldwins in it. That movie was awesome. This one won’t be because it didn’t even have the common courtesy to call this one Flatliners 2: The Flattening. Old Mill

MCFARLAND, USA It’s a Kevin Costner sports movie. That should either be enough to put your butt in a seat or to avoid it altogether. For this writer, Field of Dreams, Bull Durham, For Love of the Game and Tin Cup are awesome enough for him to deserve faith in his movies. If it’s half as good as Remember the Titans then I won’t be complaining. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Pine Theater, Redmond Theatre, Sisters Movie House

A MOST VIOLENT YEAR It is 1981, one of NYC’s deadliest years. The film follows the Morales

family as they try to expand a business in a time where the city’s corruption and violence makes it difficult. A Most Violent Year is one of 2014’s most talked about films and the performances by Oscar Isaac and Jessica Chastain are ones for the ages. Tin Pan Theater PADDINGTON I grew up with Paddington Bear and love him as much as anyone. He taught me wonderful lessons on friendship, love and family that have stayed with me forever that I will probably teach my kids one day. This Paddington, the one in the film, looks like he is going to kill and eat me while I sleep. His dead eyed stare makes me long for a simpler time, when my childhood heroes didn’t look like Dali’s worst nightmares. Please keep him away from me. Old Mill Stadium

PROJECT ALMANAC Just your stereotypical found-footage movie about teenagers creating a time machine and screwing up all of history because teenagers are the worst. While the film looks like a rip-off of 2012’s Chronicle, time travel movies are few and far-between nowadays and this one looks like it could be a bit of dumb fun. But seriously, if those damned teenagers ruin the future because of their Tumblrs and their Instagrams, there will be hell to pay. Old Mill Stadium

SEVENTH SON Jeff Bridges is playing a warrior mystic wizard guy in Seventh Son. I guess if you need more than that, it is also about that handsome Ben Barnes and his adventures as apprentice to Jeff Bridges, The Spook. While the film is being panned worldwide, we as a nation owe Jeff Bridges our allegiance whether his films are good or not. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX THE SPONGEBOB MOVIE: SPONGE OUT OF WATER 3D Sponge Bob comes to the surface with a live-action/animated blend, Who Framed Roger Rabbit-style. This looks surreal as hell, like Bosch huffed a few whippets and decided that children should be way more into his work. With all the voice actors returning, this should be a wonderful dive back into one of the weirdest animated worlds ever created. Just don’t blame the film for your acid flashbacks. Those are on you. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX STILL ALICE Julianne Moore won an Oscar for her portrayal of Alice Howland, a linguistics professor who starts forgetting words due to early-onset Alzheimers. Oscar voters love an actor taking on a debilitating disease and Moore has been snubbed a few times in the past, so the stars aligned this year to give her the golden dude. Sisters Movie House TAKEN 3 First they took his daughter, then they took his wife and daughter; now they killed his wife in the slowly escalating saga of John Taken. His revengeance will be swift and decisive, his punches large-fisted and Irish and his voice gentle and lilting. Will Liam Neeson kill the right people or will he become blinded by the staggering amount of bad luck he’s had over the last few years? Join John Taken as he takes things for the very third time. St.Francis Theater THE THEORY OF EVERYTHING Not to be rude or anything, but Hollywood should stop trying to make Eddie Redmayne a thing. His name sounds like a druid mage in a high school game of D&D and we already have more terrible names than we can deal with since the unfortunate acceptance of Benedict Cumberbatch. Plus, playing Stephen Hawking in a bio-pic is basically giving the Academy an erotic massage in hopes of an Oscar when Mr. Redmayne has yet to pay his dues. And those dues should be a Wayans Bros. movie. Just saying. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX TWO DAYS, ONE NIGHT A quietly powerful examination of human nature and the things we do to get by. Marion Cotillard plays a wife and mother who gets out of the hospital for depression to find that her boss has promised her co-workers a bonus if they vote on eliminating her position. So, over one weekend, she must go door-to-door to try and convince her co-workers to give up their bonus so she can keep her job. A subtle and simple film that says more about humanity in 90 minutes than most filmmakers could do in a lifetime. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX WHIPLASH Picture the bootcamp section of Full Metal Jacket but at a cutthroat music conservatory and you’ll have an idea of what to expect from Whiplash. This is mesmerizing, intense, edge-ofyour-seat entertainment with two of the finest performances of year. It’s no surprise that J.K. Simmons went home with the Best Supporting Actor Oscar. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX,

WILD Filmed around Central Oregon and along the Pacific Crest Trail, Wild tells the story of Cheryl Strayed and her path to self-discovery across a thousand-mile hike. One of the most hyped films of the year, Wild is a very powerful examination of loneliness, isolation and the power of the human spirit. Also, Central Oregon is pretty and fun to look at on the big screen. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

I ♥ TELEVISION

Sex in a Box BY WM.™ STEVEN HUMPHREY

Okay, so now you can die knowing you’ve watched a TV show where two people have live sex inside a box. (That was #372 on my bucket list.) The show is called “Sex Box,” it debuts this Friday, Feb. 27 at 10 pm, and it’s on the WE network—as in “WE’ve never heard of it.” Basically, troubled couples are interviewed by creepy therapists in front of a live audience, then disappear into a big opaque box to have sex…while the rest of us awkwardly check our Twitter accounts, I guess? Anyway, after blowing their loads, the couple returns (dressed in satin bathrobes EWWWWWW!!!!), and engages in meaningful “real talk” about their relationship…because orgasms supposedly make people more open and honest. (Or in my case, grab the next bus out of town.) Now, I have no trouble with people having sex inside a box. (Especially if it’s coffin-shaped.) But there are two glaring problems with this show: 1) The couples having sex don’t really like each other, which means “No, they would not like it in a box/ No, they would not like it on a fox.” And 2) last time I checked there’s still free internet porn—where I can watch hot sex that’s not obscured by a box, or immediately followed with “feelings.” (If you can direct me to anything more perfect than internet porn, I’d like to see it.) That being said, I’d love to have sex in a box with you one day…(cue segue) and these TV shows, which are returning/debuting this week! • House of Cards (Netflix, all episodes, Fri., Feb. 27). The shiniest jewel in the Netflix crown returns for its third season. When we last left shifty creep Frank Underwood, he’d finally attained his greatest wish— which means now things are about to get really ugly. Expect backlash from formerly loyal wife Claire, and a new crop of enemies

salivating for the chance to take him down. (I would have sex in a pentagon-shaped box with this show.) • Last Man on Earth (Fox, Sun., March 1, 9 pm). I love the hilarious Will Forte—formerly of “SNL”—and would have sex in any box of his choosing. In this new comedy, Will plays Phil Miller, the titular “last man on earth,” who somehow survived a virus that wiped out the human race, and now spends his time walking around the country in his underpants (because why not?), eating Pop Tart sandwiches (again why not?), and moving into a McMansion in Tucson (I can think of a number of reasons why not). • Battle Creek (CBS, Sun., March 1, 10 pm). “Breaking Bad” creator Vince Gilligan dreamed up this cop comedy about a woefully underfunded police station in economically depressed Battle Creek, Michigan. Detective Russ Agnew (Dean Winters) demands help—and immediately regrets it after being saddled with super handsome and charismatic FBI agent Milton Chamberlain (Josh Duhamel) who’s also kind of a shithead. In an effort to make them get along, their chief tells them to have sex in a box, which is filmed and put on the internet for my enjoyment. (And NO, I don’t want to hear about their “feelings”!)

ASTROLOGY ARIES (March 21-April 19):Lately your life reminds me of the action film Speed, starring Sandra Bullock and Keanu Reeves. In that story, a criminal has rigged a passenger bus to explode if its speed drops below 50 miles per hour. In your story, you seem to be acting as if you, too, will self-destruct if you stop moving at a frantic pace. I’m here to tell you that nothing bad will happen if you slow down. Just the opposite, in fact. As you clear your schedule of its excessive things-to-do, as you leisurely explore the wonders of doing nothing in particular, I bet you will experience a soothing flood of healing pleasure. TAURUS (April 20-May 20): One of the

WOMEN’S CONFERENCE

2015

most dazzling moves a ballet dancer can do is the fouetté en tournant. The term is French for “whipped turning.” As she executes a 360-degree turn, the dancer spins around on the tip of one foot. Meanwhile, her other foot thrusts outward and then bends in, bringing her toes to touch the knee of her supporting leg. Can you imagine a dancer doing this 32 consecutive times? That’s what the best do. It takes extensive practice and requires a high degree of concentration and discipline. Paradoxically, it expresses breathtaking freedom and exuberance. You may not be a prima ballerina, Taurus, but in your own field there must be an equivalent to the fouetté en tournant. Now is an excellent time for you to take a vow and make plans to master that skill. What will you need to do?

GEMINI (May 21June 20): If you’re

a martial artist and you want to inject extra energy into an aggressive move, you might utter a percussive shout that sounds like “eee-yah!” or “hyaah!” or “aiyah!” The Japanese term for this sound is kiai. The sonic boost is most effective if it originates deep in your diaphragm rather than from your throat. Even if you’re not a martial artist, Gemini, I suggest that in the coming weeks you have fun trying out this boisterous style of yelling. It may help you summon the extra power and confidence you’ll need to successfully wrestle with all the interesting challenges ahead of you.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): The prolific and popular French novelist Aurore Dupin was better known by her pseudonym George Sand. Few 19th-century women matched her rowdy behavior. She wore men’s clothes, smoked cigars, was a staunch feminist, and frequented social venues where only men were normally allowed. Yet she was also a doting mother to her two children, and loved to garden, make jam, and do needlework. Among her numerous lovers were the writers Alfred de Musset, Jules Sandeau, and Prosper Mérimée, as well as composer Frederic Chopin and actress Marie Dorval. Her preferred work schedule was midnight to 6 a.m., and she often slept until 3 p.m. “What a brave man she was,” said Russian author Ivan Turgenev, “and what a good woman.” Her astrological sign? The same as you and me. She’s feisty proof that not all of us Crabs are conventional fuddy-duddies. In the coming weeks, she’s our inspirational role model.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): It seems you’ve slipped into a time warp. Is that bad? I don’t think so. Your adventures there may twist and tweak a warped part of your psyche in such a way that it gets healed. At the very least, I bet your visit to the time warp will reverse the effects of an old folly and correct a problem caused by your past sins. (By the way, when I use the word “sin,” I mean “being lax about following your dreams.”) There’s only one potential problem that could come out of all this: Some people in your life could misinterpret what’s happening. To prevent that, communicate crisply every step of the way.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): “Learn all you can

from the mistakes of others. You won’t have to make them all yourself.” So said Alfred Sheinwold in his book about the card game known as bridge. I think this is excellent advice for the game of life, as well. And it should be extra pertinent for you in the coming weeks, because people in your vicinity will be making gaffes and wrong turns that are useful for you to study. In the future, you’ll be wise to avoid perpetrating similar messes yourself.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): “Love her but

leave her wild,” advised a graffiti artist who published his thoughts on a wall next to the mirror in a public restroom I visited. Another guerrilla philosopher had added a comment below: “That’s a nice sentiment, but how can anyone retain wildness in a society that puts so many demands on us in exchange for money to live?” Since I happened to have a felt-tip pen with me, I scrawled a response to the question posed in the second comment: “Be in nature every day. Move your body a lot. Remember and work with your dreams. Be playful. Have good sex. Infuse any little thing you do with a creative twist. Hang out with animals. Eat with your fingers. Sing regularly.” And that’s also my message for you, Scorpio, during this phase when it’s so crucial for you to nurture your wildness.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): “Don’t

worry, even if things get heavy, we’ll all float on.” So sings Modest Mouse’s vocalist Isaac Brock on the band’s song “Float On.” I recommend you try that approach yourself, Sagittarius. Things will no doubt get heavy in the coming days. But if you float on, the heaviness will be a good, rich, soulful heaviness. It’ll be a purifying heaviness that purges any glib or shallow influences that are in your vicinity. It’ll be a healing heaviness that gives you just the kind of graceful gravitas you will need.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): “What I look for in a friend is someone who’s different from me,” says science fiction novelist Samuel Delany. “The more different the person is, the more I’ll learn from him. The more he’ll come up with surprising takes on ideas and things and situations.” What about you, Capricorn? What are the qualities in a friend that help you thrive? Now is a perfect time to take an inventory. I sense that although there are potential new allies wandering in your vicinity, they will actually become part of your life only if you adjust and update your attitudes about the influences you value most. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): At the turn of

the 19th century, Russian laborers constructed thousands of miles of railroad tracks from the western part of the country eastward to Siberia. The hardest part of the job was blasting tunnels through the mountains that were in the way. I reckon you’re at a comparable point in your work, Aquarius. It’s time to smash gaping holes through obstacles. Don’t scrimp or apologize. Clear the way for the future.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): The British rock band the Animals released their gritty, growly song “The House of the Rising Sun” in 1964. It reached the top of the pop music charts in the U.S., Canada, U.K., and Australia, and was a hit with critics. Rolling Stone magazine ultimately ranked it as the 122nd greatest song of all time. And yet it took the Animals just 15 minutes to record. They did it in one take. That’s the kind of beginner’s luck and spontaneous flow I foresee you having in the coming weeks, Pisces. What’s the best way for you to channel all that soulful mojo?

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): In English and

French versions of the word game Scrabble, the letter z is worth ten points. In Italian, it’s eight points. But in the Polish variant of Scrabble, you score just one point by using z. That letter is rarely used in the other three languages, but is common in Polish. Keep this general principle in mind as you assess the value of the things you have to offer. You will be able to make more headway and have greater impact in situations where your particular beauty and power and skills are in short supply.

NEWS QUIRKS CURSES, FOILED AGAIN

• Police thought Luis Moreno Jr., 26, was driving solo in a carpool lane in Fort Lee. NJ, but when they stopped him, he showed he was legal by pointing out two men in the back of the SUV. The men said they were kidnap victims. Moreno tried to flee, but rush-hour traffic stalled his getaway, and he was arrested. (New York Daily News)

• Two thieves broke into a closed casino in Calgary, Alberta, and made off with an ATM. Security footage shows the two masked crooks loading the machine onto a dolly and wheeling it to their vehicle. On the way, it toppled onto one of the thieves, but they loaded it and made their escape. “There’s no money in the machine,” Staff Sgt. Travis Baker said, explaining that ATMs are unloaded several times daily and at the end of the business day. Noting that stealing ATMs requires heavy lifting and then “tools like grinders, axes and chisels” to break through to the cash box, Baker called it “a very ineffective way to make a living.” (Canada’s National Post)

STAND-YOUR-GROUND STATE

When Joseph Carannante, 21, built a gun range in his yard in a St. Petersburg, FL, community, neighbors complained that he was putting everyone, especially children, in danger. Police said it’s legal. “I don’t want to hurt anybody,” Carannante explained. “I just want to use this as my enjoyment. I don’t want to have to go to a gun range, when I can just go outside my door.” He promised to alert neighbors whenever he intends firing his 9 mm pistol. (Tampa’s WFLA-TV)

LOOK OUT BELOW

• Investigators concluded that the crash of a single-engine aircraft near Watkins, CO, was caused by the pilot photographing himself and his passenger and becoming disoriented by the camera flash. “It is likely that cellphone use during the accident flight distracted the pilot and contributed to the development of spatial disorientation and subsequent loss of control,” the National Transportation Safety Board report said. Explaining the NTSB is seeing “more and more” distractions from personal devices in all forms of transportation, board official Keith Holloway said, “But the self-photographs in an airplane, that’s something new for us.” (The New York Times) • Moving beyond social media, people are taking grievances to the skies by hiring airplanes to tow banners announcing their stance. Recent targets in New York City have been the mayor, including one calling for his resignation, and the general manager of the New York Jets (“Jets: Rebuilding Since 1969”). A banner costs $1,000 for a 2-1/2-hour ride over the Hudson River. Ashley Chalmers, whose Jersey Shore Aerial Advertising flew the anti-mayor and anti-Jets banners, said he never takes sides: “I’m just the messenger.” (The New York Times) • When a small plane’s engine failed over Lake Taupo on New Zealand’s North Island, all 13 people on board were able to escape before the aircraft crashed into the lake because they were skydivers intending a tandem jump. Six crewmembers jumped with the six passengers strapped to them as planned, followed by the pilot. All landed safely. (BBC News) • Air traffic control officials received reports of 193 incidents of “drone misbehavior” in 2014, according to the Federal Aviation Administration. Several were close calls involving aircraft with people on board, including one pilot who had to take evasive action above Oklahoma City when a 2-foot-wide drone came within 10 feet of his plane at 4,800 feet. Some incidents involved drones flying as high as 15,000 feet. (Mother Jones)

HOLY COW

Cleaning crews at Indian government buildings in New Delhi are switching to a new cleaning liquid derived from cow urine, which

is in abundant supply and whose anti-microbial and antifungal properties make it possible to avoid using synthetic products. The product, named Gaunyle, also contains neem and pine scent and costs about the same as conventional cleaners. “It is a win-win situation for us,” said Minister of Women and Child Development Maneka Gandhi, who came up with the idea. “No harm to janitors by way of daily exposure to chemicals, and cows will be valued more.” Buoyed by the product’s acceptance, Anuradha Modi, who heads the Holy Cow Foundation, which supplies Gaunyle, said her organization is looking for other ways to market the “piles of cow dung and cow urine” that go to waste in India. (India’s The Economic Times)

THWARTED DETERMINATION

Dwayne Jackson, 48, forced his way into a home in Ewing, NJ, found a spatula in a kitchen drawer and tried to slit his throat with it. When that failed, police Capt. Rocco Maruca said, Jackson used a butcher’s knife to stab himself in the stomach. At that point, the 76-year-old homeowner appeared with a loaded .357 handgun, which Jackson wrestled away from him and shot himself in the face. Jackson survived and was hospitalized in stable condition. (The Times of Trenton)

NATIONAL INSECURITY

• The British government proposed a supplement to the Counter-Terrorism and Security Bill that would require nursery school staffers and registered daycare providers to report youngsters at risk of becoming terrorists. “Senior management and governors should make sure that staff have training that gives them the knowledge and confidence to identify children at risk of being drawn into terrorism and challenge extremist ideas which can be used to legitimize terrorism and are shared by terrorist groups,” the document states. A Home Office official said teachers and nursery workers should take action when they notice “behavior of concern,” adding, “It is important that children are taught fundamental British values in an age-appropriate way.” (Britain’s The Express) • Ottawa firefighters responding to an alarm at the construction site of one of the Canadian government’s most secret installations discovered an “extreme vulnerability” that allowed them to enter the $800 million building: a back gate secured only by a simple padlock. The small fire, caused by cans of tar and a heater left by construction workers, was quickly extinguished. Afterwards, the Toronto Star requested documents pertaining to the incident, only to be told by Communications Security Establishment Canada officials that the information would make the spy agency vulnerable to “attack from a hostile entity” if it were revealed “that there is nothing but a padlock protecting our gates.” The agency then mistakenly provided all the information to the paper, including security patrol schedules, names of CSEC employees, the number of broken surveillance cameras and other top-secret details.

THE ADVICE GODDESS

The Wicked Witch of the Westin

There’s a girl who works at the hotel where my co-workers and I go for drinks. She’s hot and smart and fun, and I really like her and want to ask her out. The problem is that when she laughs, she cackles in this really AMY ALKON annoying way. I’m wondering whether, if we started dating and hit it off, I could subtly hint to her that she should change her weird, witchy laugh. Because, honestly, she’s perfect otherwise. —Bothered It’s great to find a woman who laughs at your wit, but not when she sounds like she’ll follow up with “I’ll get you, my pretty, and your little dog, too!” I know, the “expected” reply to a man wanting a woman to change something about herself is, “How dare you, you shallow pig?!” And I’m aware that behaviors that initially seem mildly annoying can, in time, make you want to bludgeon the person with the soup ladle. But it does seem a shame to nix a woman you really like right off the bat simply because it’s hard to tell whether she’s laughing or you’re around the corner from a donkey engaged in erotic asphyxiation. It’s possible that her laugh really is her laugh, “designed” by the shape and location of

her larynx. HowStuffWorks founder Marshall Brain explains that when we’re laughing, the larynx gets half-closed by the epiglottis. (Laughter, most charmingly, is the sound of a person struggling for air, which we each do in our own special way.) But the reality is some people with disturbing laughs have created them, often out of a desire to seem unique or get attention. They repeat their fabricated ha-ha, and it becomes part of them. And then time passes, and they forget to check whether their creation is still serving them or whether it might be to potential dates what garlic and crosses are to working vampires. Obviously, a woman is likely to be to hurt and offended if you announce, “If we’re going to have any future together, you’ll need a laughectomy.” However, IF you started dating her and IF you saw that she’s one of those (rare) people who “would rather know,” you could ask her about her laugh: “Have you always laughed that way?” But brace yourself for her to come back with something like “Do you hate my laugh?” At this point, like a rat on flotsam after a shipwreck, all you can do is grab for a piece of flattery: “Uh, um…it’s just that you’re so elegant. It doesn’t seem to go with the rest of you.” But first things first. You haven’t even asked her out. She might say no (laughing raucously and scaring away crows). Or, if she said yes, things might fizzle after a date or two. So maybe go out with her a few times, taking it slowly (no sex, tickling, or comedy club visits), and weigh whether her general fabulousness is enough to offset the intermittent cackly audio. Who knows…maybe you’ll fall for her to the point where her laugh becomes endearingly awful—always making you long to grab her and kiss her in the back seat of her broomstick.
