FEBRUARY 19, 2015 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY / 3

I

t is so easy to romanticize that winters were piled higher with snow when I was a kid, and that winter then was more, well, winter. Sadly, though, the data does back up these perceptions. The world is getting warmer—and, one of my favorite winter activities, skiing, seems to be becoming an endangered activity. For example, my two go-to ski areas—Meissner and Tea Cup Nordic Centers—have been closed for the bulk of the winter.

Of course, I have long recognized the irony of my obsession with skiing: Although an outdoor activity, it is hardly eco-friendly. On average, patrons drive 60 miles for a day of skiing, and perpetuate a cycle of global warming.

With that mental framework, when I set out last week to research this week’s feature, I was expecting to find out even more bad news about the state of the ski industry. Instead, I was amazed at the far-reaching efforts that ski resorts are taking to become more sustainable and to drastically reduce carbon emissions and, hopefully, slow global warming. In particular, Mt. Bachelor is part of a vanguard of ski resorts that have taken pledges and real measures to reduce their carbon footprint.

It is encouraging to discover a group of people who aren’t happy with the status quo—and who are doing something about it. In that spirit, I also spent an evening last week previewing The Pillowman, a play hosted this weekend only by Cascades Theatrical Company and, more broadly, part of an experiment they are hosting with a series of more edgy plays. Check out that review on page 25.

IN REPLY TO “TELL US HOW YOU REALLY FEEL: JOHN KITZHABER” (2/13)

John Kitzhaber was that rarest of politicians—a visionary. He shared the stage with the Dalai Lama in Portland; he courageously imposed a moratorium on the death penalty; his training as a physician informed his tireless work for access to health care for Oregonians; he returned from Bhutan convinced that human wellbeing and happiness should be measured by metrics other than consumption and unsustainable development. That being said, however, I am convinced that Kate Brown will be a worthy successor and a perfect match for our increasingly progressive state.

THE GRASS ISN’T ALWAYS GREENER

I am feeling a bit queasy after reading the recent Parks & Rec Playbook and especially noting the new park in [NW Crossing].

Not only did they destroy a large swath of native habitat for yet more green grass to attract yet more year-round geese to cause yet more problems in the parks, but they have installed a lake. A lake? Really? BRP... oh excuse me, BPRD. Is this the same agency that lauded itself for its environmental sensitivity? Patted itself on the back for its new, green administrative building? A lake?

Ah, perhaps the lake is full of magical water that doesn’t evaporate and won’t need to be replenished. I would like to dance about in that magical world too, but alas, I do not.

I live in an arid climate that has climate change front and center with impending issues of severe weather, water shortages, habitat destruction, energy pollution and on and on. In my world, the magical way forward (without indigestion) is to conserve, use solar, commute on bicycle, reduce, reduce & reduce, etc. BPRD, if we are going to have places to recreate in the future and

IN REPLY TO “TIRED OF NEWCOMERS” (1/29)

I felt that I needed to respond to the letter published last week on page 5 “OPINION” section about “Tired of Newcomers” written by “BENDITEGIIRL.” 1. She’s so misinformed about the issue of the “duck poop.” The euthanizing decision was made by the City Council NOT the Californian “imports.”

2. Being a Californian myself, I have to make clear that the City of Bend was heavily promoting their city enough to entice not just Californians, but people from Washington, Idaho and other states to come live here, especially retirees.

We came here not just because the value of the real estate but because of the clean environment and beautiful scenery.

3. NOBODY is trying to change the great “small town feel” in Bend. That’s why people move here from larger cities.

4. As far as rudeness, do NOT label Californians only for that. This can be a bad trait in any person regardless of their place of origin.

My husband and I moved here 10 years ago in December from Orange County, Southern California, to be near our kids and grandkids. We cannot say enough nice things about Bend and Central Oregon and we love this area just the way it’s been since we came here.

“Too Much Coffee Man” is “Too much crap.” Please don’t waste any more ink on that cartoon. In my opinion, that is a waste of what could be filled in with something that is actually funny, or blank.

POT CALLS KETTLE BLACK

Source Weekly called out two Valley newspapers for trying to make news instead of reporting it [“Strange Bedfellows” (2/11)]. I have had a complete distrust of news media for decades. Partly because I question the writers’ intelligence, mostly because they always put their slant into their stories.

Their opinions or political leanings shape the story before they even write it. News media is incredibly inept when it comes to reporting the facts. That is why they try to B.S. us with their fanciful fiction.

News media is not a public watchdog. It is an entertainment business whose primary goal is not to lose more market share.

Crusading journalism is all we have.

Don’t have a crisis? Make one up. Haven’t heard about Ebola for a while? Want to get a Republican president fired? Report about a coming recession every day for two years until you finally get your wish. In 1983, when AIDS hit, I remember a New York newscaster reporting that “there isn’t going to be one family in this country that isn’t going to be affected by this dreadful disease.”

With some pitiful irony, the full deterioration of John Kitzhaber’s brief fourth term arrived on Friday the 13th. But more painful, it was the day before Oregon’s birthday. (Nope, no one in Salem was asking the governor to blow out the candles this year.)

But what is particularly odd about the rapid demise and departure from office is that Oregon has a new governor whom we didn’t elect to that position. Moreover, the term “interim” is a bit misleading, as Brown will hold almost an entire two-year term before the next election.

While Brown has been in Oregon politics for two decades, she has not been vetted in the way that a governor would be, with high-profile debates and editorial interviews and statewide campaign stops. Yes, she has won back-to-back elections for Secretary of State in 2008 and 2012, but those elections rarely have the same fine-toothed scrutiny as a governor’s race does—and it leaves the electorate with a bit of a stranger taking the highest elected office in Oregon politics. (It is interesting to note that in her last race in 2012, she squeaked out a victory with 51 percent of the vote against Knute Buehler—and had he won that election, he would be sitting as our new governor instead of in his first term as Bend’s representative in the State House.)

So, who is our new governor?

As a former State House and Senate representative from Portland, her primary base of political support is from that metropolitan region—and liberal. That said, she certainly enjoys bipartisan support from within the state capital and has roundly been lauded as easy-going, fair and friendly.

She is the second woman in Oregon’s history to be governor. Barbara Roberts served one term from 1991 to 1995. Of current sitting governors, only five others—Nikki Haley (SC), Maggie Hassan (NH), Mary Fallin (OK), Susana Martinez (NM), and Gina Raimondo (RI)— are women. Compared to other offices—like the U.S. Senate—this is woeful gender equity in this office, but Brown’s ascension to the governor’s office takes a minor step toward more balance.

Brown is also first gay or bisexual governor in America, a declaration that is far less shocking than it would have been a decade ago, at a time when Alabama probably thought hell would freeze over before allowing same-sex marriage and major league sports were still effectively closed to openly gay players.

Beyond the basic demographic information, though, Brown is certainly qualified to be the state’s leader, and it is commonly believed that she was a likely and lead candidate for the 2018 governor campaign.

A Minnesota native, she attended law school in Oregon, and was first elected to the State House in 1992. A few years later, she was elected to the State Senate, and eventually became the State’s first female majority leader. Terms like “congenial” and “good natured” have been used to describe her leadership style.

There certainly will be a shift in policies and interests. While Kitzhaber pursued education and pension reforms that annoyed labor interests, Brown has strong support from public-sector unions. Over the past few years, the debate over the Public Employee Retirement System (PERS) has been a common sticking point with the annual state budget, and it is likely to become an even more troublesome difference between Democrats and Republicans with Brown at the helm.

Brown’s other trademark seems to be increasing access to elections through online registration, using motor vehicle registration as a means to register voters and opening up tablet technology for voters with disabilities.

But, although Brown has served for 20 years in Oregon politics, she has few hallmarks to indicate what direction she may try to take the governor’s office—or exactly what it means for Oregon to have a new governor.

NEWS Property Rights and Wrongs

Proposed vacation rental changes may not help affected neighborhoods

FEBRUARY 19, 2015 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY / 7

SIDE NOTES

BY ERIN ROOK

BY ERIN ROOK

After months of lengthy meetings, the Vacation Home Rental Task Force has drafted land use recommendations for consideration by the Planning Commission and City Council. But even if the City adopts the proposed changes, it’s not likely to change the landscape of the westside neighborhoods on the frontlines of the issue.

“The recommendation is for the status quo,” says westside resident Monty Payne.

“We’re being railroaded.”

They key recommendations in the Task Force’s draft code amendments pertain to the number of vacation rentals allowed both within a particular neighborhood and within a specific radius of existing shortterm rentals. There is some debate about the details.

Though the 23-member Task Force was able to reach consensus on most of its recommendations, there were a few sticking points. As a result, it offers two options for limiting the concentration of vacation rentals in residential neighborhoods. The first would allow only 5 to 10 percent of tax lots in a 250-foot radius to be short-term rentals. The second option, intended to prevent clustering, would permit just one such rental in a 250-foot radius, and 5 to 10 percent of the lots within a quarter-mile radius to also be vacation rentals.

But regardless of the particular number or ratio of rentals permitted within a given radius, neither approach would provide relief for those neighborhoods most affected.

According to Task Force member Spencer Dahl, the City’s numbers show the highest concentrations of vacation rentals in the Old Bend and River West neighborhoods, with 14.6 percent and 7 percent, respectively. But even if the City capped short-term rentals at 5 percent, it wouldn’t apply to these neighborhoods.

That’s because the prevailing school of thought dictates that Oregon land use law prevents the City from retroactively applying new vacation rental regulations to currently permitted properties. The argument is that such restrictions would reduce the value of the properties and constitute a “taking.”

“The other critical issue is property rights,” writes Becky Ozrelic, a long-term rental owner in Bend, in testimony submitted to the City. “People who own homes that currently have no restrictions on [vacation rentals] have the right to use their home as a personal residence, a long-term rental, a vacation rental, or any other use that is not illegal. To retroactively abridge those rights is wrong and un-American.”

But while retroactive regulation would likely spawn lawsuits, some say legal precedent supports the right of municipalities to enact land use restrictions to advance government interests. The 1993 Oregon Supreme Court case Cope v. City of Cannon Beach tackled the question of vacation rental restrictions and ruled in favor of the city.

In its decision, the court wrote Cannon Beach’s ordinance restricting vacation rentals from residential neighborhoods “substantially advances governmental interests” and noted that the U.S. Supreme Court “has

BEFORE

Re-sig-na-tion. (Imagine it sung, plaintively drawn out, in the style of k.d. lang’s “Constant Craving.”) Unless you’ve been living under a rock, you know that Oregon Gov. John Kitzhaber resigned his post at high noon, Friday the 13th. The day before Oregon’s 156th birthday. His decision to step down followed a dog pile by media outlets and Democratic leaders calling for the Governor, mere months after being elected to a historic fourth term, to walk away before the growing ethics scandal drags the state down. Because Oregon has no deputy or lieutenant governor, Secretary of State Kate Brown was sworn in Wednesday as Kitzhaber’s replacement. She’ll have to run in a special election in 2016 to keep the seat for the remainder of Kitzhaber’s term.

AFTER

SOME WESTSIDE NEIGHBORS SAY PROPOSED VACATION RENTAL CODE CHANGES WILL DO NOTHING TO AFFECT THE STATUS QUO.

recognized, in a number of settings, that States and cities may enact land-use restrictions or controls to enhance the quality of life by preserving the character and desirable aesthetic features of a city.”

However, this case was heard before Oregon passed a series of land use measures in 2004 and 2007—Measure 37 and Measure 49. As a result of these measures, Oregon law states, “If a public entity enacts one or more land use regulations that restrict the residential use of private real property or a farming or forest practice and that reduce the fair market value of the property, then the owner of the property shall be entitled to just compensation from the public entity that enacted the land use regulation or regulations.”

Since short-term rental of a property can be considerably more profitable than longterm rental, restricting short-term rentals could be seen as a reduction of property value entitling the owner to compensation or other relief.

Short of a legal challenge, the only hope on the horizon for reducing the concentration of vacation rentals in heavily impacted neighborhoods are a proposed annual licensing program and abandonment provisions. Under the proposed program, short-term rental owners could lose their permit if they failed to reapply

and pass any pertinent inspections or if the property went unrented for 12 months or more.

But these measures offer little solace for neighbors, many of who are battle-worn and weary—westside resident Monte Payne says he feels as if he’s “under siege.” Some say if they don’t see some relief, they may just leave.

“It is kind of a gold rush,” says Justyn Livingston, in response to the rush to obtain permits before new regulations set in. “But I’m thinking about applying for one, just so I have options. Last summer I thought, I don’t want to live here anymore.”

But Dr. Chris Friess, a Vacation Rental Task Force member who favors stricter restrictions on the rentals, says he trusts the Planning Commission to hear the community’s concerns and recognize the divergent interests represented on the task force. He doesn’t think retroactive regulations, or a gradual phase out, are dead in the water.

“I think the Planning Commission gets this was not a democratically elected group,” Friess says. “The draft proposals don’t do much to turn back what we have now.”

The Planning Commission will consider the draft code amendments at its February 23 meeting.

Continuing with the theme of knowing when to quit, local attorney Charlie Ringo says he’s withdrawing his second lawsuit against the City of Bend seeking to challenge the election of Councilor Casey Roats. The suit claimed, among other complaints, that City Attorney Mary Winters did not appropriately guide Council in its deliberations of Roats’ qualifications, and that the issue ought to have been held for the new Council to decide. Roats’ candidacy came under question when Ringo revealed—and Roats confirmed—that the candidate had lived outside the city limits for 11 of the 12 months preceding the election, leading many in the community and on Council to ask whether he met the City Charter’s residency requirements. Roats says he’s relieved, but also kind of bummed, since he’ll never get the court’s validation.

Looking for ways to get involved in local governance? The City is currently seeking volunteers for two committees—the Affordable Housing Advisory Committee (AHAC) and the Accessibility Advisory Committee (AAC). The AHAC specifically needs representatives from local lending institutions and affordable housing providers who are able to commit to a four-year term. The AAC wants volunteers with interest and experience in accessibility issues to advise the city on how to improve accessibility and emergency preparedness. This committee only asks for a one-to-threeyear commitment. Interested? Check out bendoregon.gov/committees for more info.

Growing Like a Downhill Snowball

Sustainability at ski resorts is ever more common, but is it too late?

BY PHIL BUSSE

ON SATURDAY, FEB. 14, SKIERS ENJOYED A SUNNY DAY UP AT MT. BACHELOR SUNRISE LODGE.

This is not the winter that the ski industry, nor skiers, in Oregon wants—and, more broadly, many are worried that this year is a sign of winters to come.

Mt. Ashland, which was closed all last season, has eeked open for a few days, and snow coverage at Hoodoo has been spotty. Nordic ski areas—notably Meissner adjacent to the Cascade Lakes Highway in Central Oregon and Tea Cup on the backside of Mt. Hood, which sit at slightly lower elevations than nearby alpine ski areas—have been closed more days than open this winter.

Certainly there have been droughts in Oregon, and correspondingly lousy ski seasons, but what is notably different is that, according to the latest survey data, the state has received near-normal precipitation since October. It is, quite simply, that the world is getting warmer.

(Last year, average temperatures crept up even more, marking 2014 as the warmest year in recorded history.)

For the ski industry, there is a troubling irony: Although an outdoor sport, the ski industry is not inherently eco-friendly. In Oregon, most skiers travel more than 60 miles for a day of skiing, a disturbing number given that carbon emissions from tailpipes are a primary contributor to global warming. Quite simply, it isn’t a sustainable equation.

But, that said, ski resorts are scrambling to break the cause-and-effect cycle of global warming. In particular, Mt. Bachelor has joined a vanguard of ski resorts throughout North America, overhauling its operations to reduce carbon emissions—and in the process, perhaps helping save winter and the ski industry.

A Growing Trend At the turn of the last century, climate change was still a concept most often shelved along with Birkenstocks and flax seed. Prius and wind turbines were, at best, nascent novelties.

The concept of “global warming” was still a debated reality, although in 2006 Al Gore’s blockbuster An Inconvenient Truth helped push sustainability and the reduction of carbon emissions into the mainstream.

But in 2000, with the battle cry “keeping winter cool,” the National Ski Area Association (NSAA) took it upon itself to declare a Sustainable Slopes Environmental Charter. (By comparison, the Kyoto Protocol, which guides nations on carbon emissions, wasn’t ratified until 2002.) Although many of Oregon’s ski resorts reside within federal lands, the Sustainable Slopes Environmental Charter is not a regulation, but simply a request by a private organization for voluntary compliance. Recognizing the sizable amount of energy necessary to manage ski resorts and its impact on the environment, the charter urges individual resorts to examine current practices, and what to do differently. Eight of Oregon’s 12 major downhill resorts were charter members, including Mt. Bachelor, Hoodoo and Anthony Lakes.

Three years ago, NSAA stepped up its efforts even more, and set out a Climate Challenge.

Far less well known, but similar to the Leadership in Environmental Energy and Design (LEED) certification process for designating certain buildings environmentally-friendly, the Climate Challenge asks resorts to take measurable steps toward reducing their carbon emissions—and awards points for compliance. The goal is far-reaching: By 2020, to reduce

carbon emissions to nearly half the current rates.

At first, only eight out of the 500 or so resorts in North America joined the Climate Challenge. The following year, those pioneers were joined by another seven; Mt. Bachelor and Mt. Hood Meadows both signed up. And this season, 30 resorts have joined this lead group.

In particular, Mt. Bachelor has taken on a wide-reaching number of programs—some obvious and easy, others more challenging in their efforts to change entrenched protocols.

“The easiest sustainability initiative has been to purchase enough wind energy credits to offset 100 percent of our chairlifts’ electrical power usage,” says Drew Jackson, the marketing and communication manager at Mt. Bachelor. He adds, “The greatest challenge has been to upgrade old buildings and make them more energy efficient.”

In the latest report from NSAA, Mt. Bachelor reports energy credits have offset a carbon footprint the equivalent of removing 5,163 cars from Oregon’s roadways each year.

More directly, Mt. Bachelor has pushed to actually reduce the number of cars coming and going on Century Drive—and also enforces a “no idling program” for vehicles in its parking lots. All told, from that effort the ski area claims a reduction of seven million pounds of greenhouse gases annually—or, a reduction of 1.7 million vehicle miles in 2014.

Jackson points out that these sustainability programs are a “win-win.” Explaining that the goal is to reach the triple-bottom line—reduced carbon emissions, reduced costs and improved lifestyles—he talks about how Mt. Bachelor replaced all of the lighting in its vehicle maintenance shop with LED bulbs. “The new lights reduced our carbon footprint, reduced our energy cost and improved the brightness of the shop for our employees,” he explains.

Do The Right Thing Perhaps the greatest shortcoming in Mt. Bachelor’s sustainability efforts is its lack of publicity of the initiatives.

Interestingly, a 2012 study by Madeline Phillips, “Perceptions of Sustainability,” which surveyed hundreds of skiers at Oregon resorts, points out that Oregonians strongly value environmentally friendly business practices—with some four out of five respondents saying it is important that ski areas practice sustainability, and roughly that same number saying that knowing a ski resort is working toward sustainability would affect whether they patronize the resort. Yet, whether poor marketing or simple modesty, Mt. Bachelor does little to advertise its efforts and its role as a leader in the ski industry’s efforts toward lessening carbon emissions.

Jackson admits Mt. Bachelor’s shortcoming marketing its sustainability initiatives, but just as quickly points to the resort’s future plans. “Mt. Bachelor received a federal grant for an engineering and feasibility study on the idea of installing a biomass plant in our base area,” he says. “If constructed,” he continues, “the biomass plant would use local forest debris as fuel to produce energy so that we could replace and retire our current propane heating system. The plant would also aid forest management personnel in making a portion of the nearby forest more fire-resistant by removing highly-flammable natural debris.”

All of which sounds good. Yet, will be it enough?

SOUND

Moving Quickly to a Spontaneous New Sound The Helio Sequence jumps in with lively new material

THE SOURCE

SUGGESTS...

BY ANNE PICK

PAVLINA SUMMERS

BY ERIC SKELTON

After releasing its fifth full-length album, Negotiations, in 2012, The Helio Sequence was ready to try something new. The Portland alternative pop/rock duo had been kicking around the idea of recording another band in the full professional studio they’d built for themselves, so they jumped at the chance to record and produce a new album by Brazilian band Quarto Negro.

What they learned from this experience ended up impacting their own material more than they’d ever thought.

“Time was very limited,” says lead singer Brandon Summers.

“We had to have everything recorded within the short amount of time they were in the States, so we were forced to quickly come up with ideas and run with them. We came out of that really amazed with how some of the stuff came serendipitously by working so fast.

So we decided we really wanted to do that for our next record, and work more quickly.”

Summers and multi-instrumentalist Benjamin Weikel had spent the majority of their career laboring over every little detail of their dramatic version of alt-rock that swirls reverberating guitars/ synths together with intricate percussion and commanding lead vocals. Naturally, the thought of loosening up a little was an exciting concept. Forcing themselves to work quickly cut out time to overthink anything, allowing a spontaneous, stream-of-consciousness, creative experience that breathed new life into a band that had been writing songs together since the mid-90s. The shift in mentality was sealed when they heard about a game some of their musician friends (including Menomena, Datr, and Nick Jaina) were playing, dubbed “the 20 song game.”

“Everyone would meet up in the morning and decide on a time to get in their own studio and write 20 songs as fast as they could throughout the day,” Summers explains. “No matter how good or how bad, you’d have to finish it. Then everyone would get back

together in the evening to show each other their records, laugh at the stuff that’s horrible, and pat each other on the back for stuff that turned out well.”

What began as a fun little exercise turned into the blueprint for their next album.

“We spent the whole day working on demos and came up with some really cool material,” Summer continues. “So instead of doing the 20 song game, we decided to do an elongated version of it and take 30 days to finish the whole record.” He adds, “So we did everything, start to finish, in 30 days. The whole goal was to go into it without any preconceived notions or any planning to see what we could come up with. We just tried to surprise ourselves, really.”

When the 30 days were over, they listened to the new material and were greeted with a distinctly upbeat and lively tone.

“It has a sunny day kind of a vibe because it was so in the moment,” Summers reveals. “We came in every morning during a string of amazing 70 to 90 degree days in Portland and were in a really good headspace, so the album feels like that. It has a momentum to it that we’re both really happy with.”

The Helio Sequence hopes to keep that momentum rolling as they bring these new songs to life on stage. One of their very first chances to do so will be during the Aprés Ski Party at Crow’s Feet Commons before the release of the album and an accompanying tour later in the year.

Rose’s Pawn Shop It’s already been two years since Volcanic Theatre Pub opened its doors and started bringing Central Oregon a steady stream of theater, nationally and regionally touring music acts, pub trivia and film events.

To celebrate its second anniversary, Volcanic welcomes Rose’s Pawn Shop, a Grammy-nominated Americana outfit straight from Los Angeles. What better way to celebrate than with a band that plays all of our favorite stringed instruments in some form or another? Gather round the upright bass, banjo and fiddle for an evening of sweet harmonies that pair beautifully with Rose’s Pawn Shop’s folk and bluegrass-inspired rock and roll sound. 8 pm. Thursday, Feb. 19. Volcanic Theatre Pub, 70 SW Century Dr. $5.

The Covers of Reinvention

BY JOSH GROSS

Any artist can cover a song. But every so often that cover completely reinvents the song, making it as much their own as well as the artist that wrote it. That’s the sort of songs we compiled for this week’s Mixtape, with complete reinventions of songs by artists like The Pixies, Britney Spears, Queen and Cole Porter, by artists like Joan Jett, The PeteBOX, Hayseed Dixie and the BYU Vocal Choir.

Blue Lotus Calling all Phish Phans and Grateful Deadheads! If you’re someone who considers yourself a fan of jam bands, Blue Lotus fills your need for rockin’ blues, jazz and funk-inspired sets. With one listen to the band’s melodic, yet high energy, danceable sound, it’ll come as no surprise that this group of Eugene-based musicians initially formed when Bradelyn Rose and Felix Blades met at the Oregon Country Fair. Blue Lotus plays danceable, bluesy rock and roll that sometimes sounds out of this world, but blends perfectly for the entire family. 7 pm. Thursday, Feb. 19. McMenamins Old St. Francis School, 700 NW Bond St. No cover.

McDougall McDougall, a one-man Americana band from Portland, falls in the same vein as another local favorite from Portland, Hillstomp, in playing boot-stomping, oldtimey blues folk-rock. McDougall alternates between guitar, banjo, harmonica, bass drum, cymbals and whatever else he can get his hands on to create an Americana sound that a person would swear comes from a band of four or five—not just one guy. Singing with an exaggerated bravado, he balances intriguing vocals with the playing duties and heart of an entire band. 9 pm. Friday, Feb. 20. Volcanic Theatre Pub, 70 SW Century Dr. $5.

DID YOU KNOW?

A corps (pronounced “kohr”) is a group of people with a common goal or mission.

What is Heart of Oregon Corps?

We’ve all had at least one opportunity that changed our lives. Do you remember yours? Heart of Oregon Corps seeks to provide those significant, life-altering opportunities to local young people who need and deserve them.

These opportunities are essential now more than ever, as the odds continue to stack up against our young people. The youth unemployment rate across the four Central Oregon counties we serve is a sobering 33%. Regional graduation rates are below the state average of 72%, which is the lowest in the country.

Heart of Oregon Corps is a local non-profit providing job skills training and education to young people ages 16-24. Through the WORK, EARN, LEARN model of our 5 programs, we strive to create pathways out of poverty for youth and encourage their self-sufficiency. In addition to benefitting the youth, the projects they work on keep our community beautiful and healthy while the wages they earn stimulate regional economic growth.

Michael’s Story

YouthBuild program. This time Michael maintained his sobriety, worked hard to earn his GED, earned a wage to help support his family, and found a meaningful connection in building affordable homes. He encountered countless challenges but was able to overcome them with determination and HOC support. His accomplishments allowed him to realize his own abundant worth both as an individual and in his community. At the end of his 9 month term with us, we didn’t hesitate to recommend Michael to a local painting company. He used the resume and interview skills he learned at HOC and left our program for his first real job. Michael’s journey is proof that the right opportunity can make all the difference. He says it best: “the program truly changed my life. If I didn’t do YouthBuild I would probably be in jail.” Transformations like his are what inspire us, what we strive for. Michael had potential in him all along; perhaps what he needed most was a place like Heart of Oregon Corps to show him change was possible.

(placement still continued 9 months later)

further offenses after HOC programs

That’s Michael pictured on the left. Five years ago, Michael was 16 and on a path to self-destruction. Drugs, delinquency, and recklessness were his way of life. He had dropped out of school and his viable options were dwindling. “I didn’t care about anything at that point in my life,” says Michael, now 21, reflecting on his younger self. He was out of control, headed for jail or worse. Heart of Oregon Corps (HOC) was one of Michael’s last alternatives. He joined a HOC program four different times; each time a troublesome incident forced us to let him go early on. After any one of these failures, it would have been easy for Michael to give up, but he made the hard choice. He made that choice again and again and kept trying until one day it finally stuck. On that day, Michael was a 20-yearold father on parole with six months of sobriety under his belt. Still refusing to give up hope, we welcomed him back into HOC’s

From the writers and designers to the travel agents and assistants, stay-at-home careers seem to be quite the norm these days. Even for the preschool teacher.

Personally, I couldn’t imagine any pursuit requiring bigger cajones than the latter. Which is why I give mad props to local mama Mindy Noe for transforming her home into a place for tiny tots to learn and play… Mother, wife, teacher, director—she does it all. And after my recent interview with this all-around superwoman, I’d say she makes it sound easy…

Source Weekly: What first sparked your interest in teaching?

Mindy Noe: I had wanted to be a teacher ever since my first day of kindergarten.

The smell of the paints, the cute little desk, and of course the teacher (who got to use Sharpies and tell everyone in such a kind voice what we were going to learn about that day)—it all just appealed to me. I would even arrange my bedroom at home into a classroom and make my little siblings pretend to be my students.

SW: Why preschool?

MN: To me, this is such a fun age. I can be silly and laid back while still giving the

kids that spark of excitement for learning.

I’ve been teaching preschool in Bend for eight years, and my absolute favorite part is when the kids get fascinated with something—like the Amazon rainforest or a pink dolphin or an anaconda—and then come up to me a month or so later and say (out of nowhere), “Mrs. Mindy, look at this picture I drew of an anaconda—it’s the biggest snake in the world!” Or, “Mrs. Mindy, let’s go to the Amazon and catch a pink dolphin!” It’s these little moments that remind me how excited they are about what we say and do.

SW: What was it like turning your home into the Village Preschool? How do you find balance in separating the two now?

MN: It was actually a really easy transition for me, since I was an employee of the Village for many years before purchasing it from the previous owners and making it my own. Now, when I come downstairs at 7:30 to make my coffee and open the school for the day, I’m in full work-mode. And although balance can be tricky, I’m only Mrs. Mindy until we close at 6:00. Then I take a deep breath and I’m home. I make dinner, help my son with his homework and catch up on the day with my husband.

SW: What makes the Village Preschool unique?

MN: We focus a lot on independence and creativity here. We do circle time, yoga, and stations that involve art, math and science. We encourage the kids to make their own choices, and we offer help when they need it. For me, it’s all about letting them be who they are. And I can’t say enough wonderful things about my amazing staff!

I’m so proud of our school here, and all the positive feedback from families in the community just continues to make me proud!

KIDS EVENTS Art Academy for Children Art class for students who would like to develop skills in many mediums of art-making. Course will guide students through art history, projects, critiques and portfolio creation. Emphasis on the artist having fun through expressing their ideas and works. Mondays, 1-3 or 4-6pm. Tuesdays, 4-6pm. Art Station, 313 SW Shevlin Hixon Dr. 541-617-1317. Member: $272, Non-member: $320.

CULTURE

Venturing Into New Theater

ART WATCH

BY ERIN ROOK

CTC’s The Pillowman challenges new expectations for local theater

BY PHIL BUSSE

Tucked away in an industrial neighborhood near SE 9th and Wilson, three local artists/ musicians—two of them brothers—are birthing an artistic vision. That dream—of a community space for artists to learn, create, collaborate and share their work—is Dastardly Arts.

Coming to the worktable to build the new space are Paul Chatem, Avery James (A.J.) Graveman (Avery James and the Hillandales) and Johnny Bourbon (Harley Bourbon).

“We wanted to start a space that artists could come to for projects they either didn’t have the space, tools or know-how to get done,” the trio says in an email (yes, their collaborative approach extends to interviews). “The main inspiration is to make a living through our arts and to pick up new tricks from other artists while having awesome people stopping by to hopefully do the same.”

Dastardly Arts opened its doors to the public for the first time last Friday with a soft opening that marks the first of its monthly art shows scheduled for every 13th of the month. The date selection is a nod to the nature of their art, and the artists they’d like to share space with, that is: “The kind of darker, lowbrow art that wouldn’t usually be shown in a standard art gallery.”

In addition to hanging art at its monthly shows, the group hopes to also host speakers, classes and workspace for artists—much of it on a donation basis.

FACT IS WORSE THAN FICTION: POLICE INTERROGATE A WRITER IN CTC’S PRODUCTION OF THE PILLOWMAN, OPENING 2/19.

Cascades Theatrical Company is probably best known for staging 20th century classics, like Tennessee Williams’ The Glass Menagerie, which just wrapped up an extended run.

But, starting late in 2014, with a terse production of the intense 2009 Tony Award-winning God of Carnage, CTC has taken a gamble—and is hoping to push some of its patrons into more adventurous and dark zones. The theater are hosting a series of three “black box” production, each tucked between its more elaborate and mainstream productions.

Held in the same space, these black box productions are shorter runs (just one weekend) and staged in a more dressed-down production. Moreover and most notably, CTC has chosen scripts for these productions that are a bit more daring and dark.

The first play, God of Carnage, is an uncomfortable examination of modern-day parenting. And its third out of the three, Venus in Fur, is a sexual and playful script that could make 50 Shades of Grey blush.

This middle play, which has a four consecutive night run this weekend, is The Pillow Man. If that title sounds familiar, it is because surprisingly the play was also staged at Volcanic Theatre late last year. (The backstory for the reasons for these competing productions, depending on who tells you the “facts,” has enough drama to stage its own production about crosstown theater rivals, but for our purposes, let’s focus on the current production at CTC.) The Pillowman is a dark story about a short story writer, Katurian, in an unnamed totalitarian state. Some of his stories

involve the gruesome torture and murder of young children— and, even stranger, as Katurian quickly finds out in Scene One, some of the more gruesome fictions seemingly have become fact as three young children have been murdered.

Written by U.K. playwright Martin McDonagh, in 2005 it was nominated for a Tony.

At two-plus hours running time, the rehearsal I attended was tedious at times, re-trending some of the more obvious themes. It is, after all, gruesome subject matter—a story about child abuse and three brutal murders of young children. But it is easy to get caught up in those gratuitous moments. Instead, the real charm is recognizing that the story itself is about storytelling and, moreover, in spite of the dark mood, there are moments of true tenderness, especially in the scene between Katurian and his mentally and emotionally disabled brother.

Also noteworthy is the character Ariel, a gorilla of a police officer. The character—extremely well played by Brad Thompson—is a menacing presence on stage, but also adds a somewhat perversely welcome comic tone.

And, most broadly, CTC’s black box series is an immensely welcomed addition to Central Oregon’s theater scene, venturing past the tried-and-true into bold new theater and challenging theater-goers to stretch their comfort zones.

The Pillowman Cascades Theatrical Company, 148 NW Greenwood 7:30 pm, Thursday-Saturday, Feb. 19-21 2 pm, Sunday, Feb. 22 $10-$15.

“Artists are a struggling breed. When it comes to feast or famine we understand that an artist will usually have to sit on the latter,” the guys at Dastardly Arts explain. “Due to this, donations are a big part of our survival at Dastardly Arts.

Give what you can without taking advantage.

Not just monetary though—supplies such as paints, brushes, lumber, tools, etc.”

Ultimately, it all comes down to art and community. And Dastardly Arts plans to celebrate that creative nexus full tilt when it breaks with tradition to host a grand opening April 11.

Cooking Matters

Local nonprofit teaches fresh and healthy eating to SNAP recipients

DELANO LAVIGNE

BY DELANO LAVIGNE

Fifteen students huddle around a table as Cascade Culinary Institute Chef Julian Darwin demonstrates how to prepare, cook and enjoy an affordable and deliciously healthy meal with the self-possession of a 30-year kitchen veteran. As part of a six-week cooking program, called Cooking Matters, Supplemental Nutrition Assistant Program (SNAP) eligible Deschutes County residents are part of a weekly gathering between an unfortunately all too uncommon alliance. At one end of the table (pun intended) are moms, dads, grandparents, caregivers, kids and teens, all who want to cook and be healthier, yet for various reasons have not had the opportunity—or means—to do so. At the other end of the table, making the alliance possible, are chefs, culinary students, nutrition educators, and nonprofits, all of whom have a passion for healthy food and for making a difference in the lives of others.

And twice a year for six-weeks in Deschutes, Cook and Jefferson Counties, these seemingly desultory alliances are being formed with one goal in mind: healthy cooking.

At the head of the table is the High Desert Food and Farm Alliance (HDFFA), and the most recent addition to their team, Meiko Lunetta. As program administrator, Lunetta carries an organizational mandate to increase access to fresh healthy food and build relationships between local producers and consumers of food. The Cooking Matters program, a key element in the national Share Our Strength: No Kid Hungry campaign, is the perfect platform for Lunetta and the HDFFA to carry out their organizational mission.

They have added their own “twist,” as Lunetta calls it, to the Cooking Matters program.

In addition to promoting nutrition, which is the primary goal of the Cooking Matters program, Lunetta and the HDFFA are reaching out to local producers to help supply some of the groceries that are used in the weekly classes.

“We are building local connections and supporting a community-based food system,” Lunetta explains. For example, this week and for the duration of the program, two local vegetable producers, Volcano Farm and Next Season Farm, are donating their hydroponic and aquaponic grown produce. This week, Ryan Snead from Next Season Farm brought in a beautiful selection of butter crunch and baby romaine lettuce that the students used in

making their Asian-inspired chicken salads.

And the hope is for more alliances to be formed. Lunetta hopes that another Cooking Matters program will take place this fall where more of the ingredients that go into preparing each meal, and are given to the participants at the end of each class, will be filled with the local abundance of Central Oregon’s own bounty.

Joining HDFFA’s alliance for the current Cooking Matters program are Chef Darwin from the Cascade Culinary Institute, along with a pair of Culinary Institute students, and Jennifer Barton from Carrot Top Catering. Each is volunteering their time and, in their own way, trying to “give something back; the right tools to be healthier,” says Chef Darwin and create “greater community connections,” says Barton.

But good intention and all, is the program—and the cooking classes—actually working?

“I thought I knew how to cook,” says one of the participants as Chef Darwin guides him through the process of making a gluten-free black bean brownie. “But I guess not,” he adds as he pulls some admittedly delicious brownies out of the oven.

A few of the other participants express how great it is to receive, at the end of each class, a grocery bag of the exact ingredients used that night so they can practice at home. The idea, as Chef Darwin explains, is to get participants to become more familiar with ingredients to which they might not otherwise be exposed—healthy and fresh ingredients.

And when everyone joins around the table to share the night’s meal together, it is clear that the alliance is working.

But for Lunetta and the HDFFA, this is hopefully just the beginning. They want more programs, including additional Cooking Matters classes or possibly “pop up” cooking classes that reinforce Community Supported Agriculture among various demographics. “But we need more community support,” she expresses with a chagrin ubiquitous to most nonprofit organizations. And although she describes this course as “a small step,” it is certainly a step heading in the right direction.

Bend Brewing Company, that humble brewpub in the oddly-shaped building on Brooks Street which has a knack for collecting beer-fest medals, is turning 20 this Friday. It’s a tough milestone for any restaurant to reach, but considering how consistently avant-garde and tasty the BBC’s releases have proven to be over the years, they have every right to be proud as a peacock of their legacy.

Originally announced as the Brooks Street Brewery in November 1993, Bend Brewing didn’t actually open until February 1995, thanks to the building that founders Dave Hill and Jerry Fox purchased requiring extensive renovation work. (Among the additions they made were a seven-barrel system crammed into the tiny space upstairs—the same system that produces all their beer today.) It was the second brewpub to open up in Bend after Deschutes Brewery itself, and while Deschutes is now one of America’s top regional beer brands, the BBC two blocks down is still a tiny outfit, producing less than a thousand barrels per year and restricting bottle distribution just to Central Oregon and a couple of Portland bot-

tle shops. That’s the philosophy taken by current owner Wendi Day, who took over after Fox, her father, retired in 2000.

What their production line lacks in quantity, though, is more than made up for in quality. Between 2002 to 2011, when Tonya Cornett (now at 10 Barrel) was the brewer, the BBC’s beers began to attract national attention, with the Hop Head imperial IPA winning gold at the Great American Beer Festival in 2006. Cornett (and current brewmaster Ian Larkin) followed that up with heavy experimentation in souring and fruit flavoring, releasing beers like the Ching Ching Berliner weiss (winner of two GABF medals) and the astoundingly rich and flavorful Lovely Cherry Baltic Porter.

On Friday the BBC will take over Brooks Street, offering outdoor entertainment, 20 different beers (including a ton of vintage-aged releases), and a bottle release for Outback XX, a wild-fermented strong ale. Stop on in and raise a glass—the BBC proves that even small businesses can make huge waves in this industry. Happy Birthday, Bend Brewing Company.

OUTSIDE Fight Night

Big time boxing hits Central Oregon

MATTHEW GRIMES

BY JP SCHILCK

Who doesn’t like a Cinderella story? The come-from-behind victory; the beaten and bruised opponent; hurt, written off, only to muster the strength for a final stand (and “final countdown”) and beat the unassuming favorite?

It’s the type of story boxing lore is built on (see, Rocky, the first one, the Academy Award winner), and now the sport itself is mounting its own comeback. Called a transition period by many boxing fans and experts, the sport of boxing was fading from its popularity in the previous decade. A one-two punch: With few real bona fide stars, and with the rise of mixed martial arts (MMA) a decade ago, over the past 20 years boxing in America has lost millions in its fan base. To some, MMA may seem like

the natural progression from boxing, a more dynamic battle, a mix of karate and punching, something closer to video games. But any boxer or remaining boxing fan will tell you the two sports are worlds apart—and that amateur boxing is, once again, gaining participants.

“Boxing is the oldest combat sport there is,” explains Richard Miller of Deschutes County Rocks Boxing Gym in downtown Bend.

ing and now they are having some problems. They are failing drug tests and getting seriously injured.”

Testimony to boxing’s return to center ring is the gaining popularity of regional matches—and this weekend, Miller is hosting the Oregon State Gold Gloves Championship at Eagle Crest Resort.

To say that Miller, who was a boxer for 16 years and a coach for 24, is excited about the event and the sport of boxing itself is an understatement. His enthusiasm is contagious and goes well beyond the art of throwing a jab or connecting a left hook.

“Our whole focus with our team is not just about boxing,” says Miller, sitting behind the desk at the front entrance of the Rocks Boxing Gym, flanked by a cardboard

cutout of Sylvester Stallone as Rocky, who looks beaten but not broken. Miller goes on, “It is about teaching these kids discipline, respect, dedication, manners, self-confidence, and things like that, that will help them down the road in life.”

Miller himself is an example of that dedication. He works full time as an irrigation service tech, and, like all of the coaches at The Rocks Boxing Gym, volunteers his time and talent at the nonprofit gym. Miller goes on to point out that Rocks Gym teaches USA Olympic style boxing, a more restrained and diligent style that is quite different from the smashmouth battles favored in Las Vegas matches and the professional bouts.

“Boxing has a stigma,” states Miller. “It comes from the professional game; it’s dirty and it’s rough with head injuries and things like that. But of the top 25 amateur sports for head injuries,” he hastens to point out, “amateur boxing is not on the list.”

Recently, two of the younger athletes who train at Rocks Gym returned from a Silver Gloves National Championship in Independence, Missouri. In their respective classes, both placed second in the in the nation. Miller is proud that boxers from the Northwest—which traditionally has not produced top-ranked contenders—stood their ground in these recent bouts.

“People always say, ‘yeah but just wait ’til you fight some of those guys back east.’ Well, we do and we beat them,” says Miller, pointing out that his younger fighters overcame opponents from Cincinnati, St. Louis, Los Angeles, and Washington, D.C., to advance to the final bouts.

The Golden Gloves tournament this weekend is Oregon’s premier boxing event, and a qualifying event for the National Championship and Olympic trials—and, Miller is particularly confident that his heavyweight fighter Alberto Rivas will advance to the Regional Championships in Las Vegas taking place in March.

Has this wacky warm winter stricken you with early onset spring fever? Yellowstone’s bears are emerging from hibernation, California saw its first wildfire of the season, and closer to home Oregon’s wild-flowers are starting to show their pretty little heads.

Big Summit Prairie Located in the Ochoco National Forest, roughly 40 miles east of Prineville, this area is home to literally hundreds of different species of native flowers. Among the showiest of the flowers found here are my personal favorites: dark-throated shooting stars, arrow leaf balsamroot, and rocky mountain sunflowers. While it’s too early for sunflowers, the shooting stars, balsamroot and others may well be stirring from their winter slumber. This area is also home to deer, pronghorn, and bald eagles, so even if you strike out on the flower front there is bound to be something to look at. Contact the Ochoco National Forest ranger station for maps and current conditions.

Snowshoe Tours Where: USFS snowshoe hut near Mt. Bachelor’s West Village Mountain Gateway building. Join a naturalist on a snowshoe tour at Mt. Bachelor and learn about alpine environments and the natural features of the Cascade Range.

Wear snow boots and warm winter clothing. No previous experience required and snowshoes will be provided. Brought to you in partnership by US Forest Service, Mt. Bachelor, and Discover Your Forest. Saturdays-Sundays, 10-11:30am and 1:30-3pm.

Through March 29. Mt. Bachelor, 13000 Century Dr. 541-383-5530. Free, donations to support tours and other Discover Your Forest programs, are greatly appreciated.

Grizzly Mountain Despite sitting at 5,600 feet, this peak 30 miles to the northwest of Prineville has already produced confirmed wildflower sightings. The Native Plant Society of Oregon posted photos of sagebrush buttercups in full bloom in the last few days. Grizzly Mountain is also a good place to spot bitterroot blooms further along in the season. The Cascades views from here are spectacular year round, as is the birding. From Prineville, drive 8.8 miles north on Hwy 26 and turn east on Grizzly Mountain Road. The distance to the top is roughly 3.5 miles and is passable by passenger car when dry.

NATURAL WORLD

What’s In a Name?

The sloth is NOT a slob!

For some reason that I cannot comprehend, someone, somewhere, somehow, back when the sun was a tiny thing, there weren’t no Moon and the Big Dipper was a little drinkin’ cup, got started on using the sloth as a whipping boy for the term, “slob.”

I have been accused of using my column for venting my opinions (which is true), so hey, does that slow-moving vegetarian of the forests deserve such an image? I think not!

“Sloth” and “slothful” are terms that have been bothering me for a long time because they suggest a description that the sloth doesn’t, in my opinion, deserve. Sloths living today—and even those of yesteryear—have these descriptions in Webster’s Dictionary and other like publications, to whit: Idle, lackadaisical, lazy, otiose, shiftless.

Even my hero, Henry David Thoreau’s definition of slothfulness bothers me to no end: “An unclean person is universally a slothful one; envious, slothful vice, never makes its way in lofty characters, but like the skulking viper, creeps.”

“Slothfulness” is even (said to be) one of the Seven Deadly Sins in Christian moral tradition, referring to laziness, and also defined as spiritual or emotional apathy, neglecting what God has spoken, and being physically and emotionally inactive.

And what’s really very disheartening is that the names for sloths used for food and fur by tribes in Ecuador include ritto, rit, and ridette—mostly forms of the words “sleep,” “eat,” and “dirty.”

From my perspective, the following attribute may be why humans are still using the term slothful to characterize others who seem to be out of sync with the rest of animal life: sloths in the wild move only when necessary, and even then, v-e-r-y s-l-o-w-l-y; which is not their fault—they have about a quarter as much muscle tissue as other animals of similar weight.

Unlike most humans we know, sloths’ specialized “hands and feet” have long, curved claws allowing them to hang upside down from branches without effort. (However, most anyone who has raised children has seen their kids do this as well…)

Sloths sometimes sit on top of branches, where they usually eat, sleep, and even give birth hanging from limbs, and sometimes even remain hanging from branches after death. (My wife Sue says the same about my afternoon naps when she finds me with my arms hanging outside the covers, knuckles on the floor of the bedroom.)

And here’s another trait that may have helped humans debase sloths: they were thought to be among the most somnolent of mammals, sleeping from 15 to 18 hours each day. However, the Max Planck Institute for Ornithology in Starnberg, Germany, published a study indicating that sloths sleep just under 10 hours a day (while most of our afternoon naps are only for about an hour).

And how about this: sloths go to the ground to urinate and defecate—but only about once a week—and, unlike some of my old hunting buddies, a sloth will dig a hole and covers its leavings afterward, always at the base of the same tree to fertilize, but some people believe it’s to avoid making noise while defecating from up high that would attract predators. It seems as though no one will give the sloth any credit for using its brains or for doing something “good.”

The fossil sloth above is an example of the extended family of ground sloths that existed throughout the Americas, and died out approximately 11,000 years ago, when humans first entered their habitation. (Does that suggest that barbecued sloth may have been on the early pioneers’ menu…?)

Just walking was a problem for those ancient giants; the size of their claws forced them to stand on the sides of their feet and to balance with their huge tail in order to reach the vegetation in trees. Then chewing their food was a problem; unlike most mammals, their

teeth lacked enamel and were ever-growing.

For those interested in who and where these old timers lived, paleontologists have identified three distinct species that once ranged across what is the United States today: Paramylodon harlani, across the United States, especially the western states, lived in open park-like grasslands; Nothrotheriops shastensis, western United States and Florida, Texas, Mexico, found in drier habitat than harlani; and Megalonyx jeffersoni, Alaska, Northwest Canada, across the United States, living its life in forests in these parts.

They also liked spending time in caves and other under-the-surface areas, and some, such as the large mylodon sloths in South America, are believed to have dug giant-sized burrows where paleontologists found evidence of sloth bones and claw marks.

Now, that doesn’t sound as though sloths were, “idle, lackadaisical, lazy, otiose or shiftless” does it? So, who pinned it on them and transferred the sloth’s slow-moving, “leave-mealone-and-I’ll-leave-you-alone” way of life into something lazy or shiftless? Must have been the same ilk who says I’m as “wily” as a coyote.

So, there we have it; just because an animal moves slowly, appears to sleep long hours and is host to a wide array of beasties in its fur, they are used as an instrument of “slothful” thinking by humans. Doggone shame, ain’t it?

The Oscars Two different venues are showing the Oscars this year. Volcanic Theatre Pub will have a screening of Birdman at 2 pm, followed by the Oscars, and Tin Pan Theater will open its doors at 3 pm for anyone who would like to see Neil Patrick Harris be adorable, Ricky Gervais pretend to be a bully, Michael Keaton be a boss or Bradley Cooper play with some more fake babies.

Although the past year has largely been dismissed as a moderate year in cinema, there are at least a few films that deserve attention for stretching the imagination of what a director can accomplish. In particular, Boyhood, a front runner for the Best Movie category, is remarkable for its production value. Filmed over 12 years, largely in secret, the movie captures the true tenor and phases of childhood and parenthood. It is the umpteenth collaboration between director Richard Linklater and actor Ethan Hawke, and picks up on their themes about aging and the passage of time. Also noteworthy is Birdman for its artistic fluidity—edited to seem like a single, meandering shot, following actors down hallways and out into Times Square, it is mesmerizing.

Also, worth watching is first-year host Neil Patrick Harris. The Academy has struggled in the past several years to locate a proper host—someone funny, engaging and smart. Their poor host choices have allowed the Golden Globes, with its gleeful hosts Tina Fey and Amy Poehler, to emerge as a true contender to the Oscars. Harris has already proven to be a charming host (this generation’s Bob Hope?) as the 2014 host of the Tony and Emmy awards in 2009 and 2013.

JUPITER ASCENDING From the creators of The Matrix Trilogy and the criminally underrated masterpiece Cloud Atlas. Jupiter Ascending is either poised to be this year’s sleeper sci-fi hit or a flop the size of Johnny Depp’s Mortdecai mustache.

THE SEARCH FOR GENERAL TSO A documentary about figuring out who the hell General Tso is and what’s so special about his damn chicken.

The film also focuses on Americanized Chinese food and how it has almost become more American than apple pie. A light and funny look at American appropriation of Chinese food in such a way that doesn’t really compare to Chinese food at all. Tin Pan Theater 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.

So I know a lot of you guys are mad at Kanye West right now…wait. Correction.

A lot of you guys are mad at Kanye West ALWAYS, but are particularly mad at him now, following his latest performance at the Grammys.

For those who missed it, Beck won “album of the year” over Beyonce, causing Kanye to rush the stage. BUT! Instead of yanking the mic away and going on an “I’mma let you finish” rant (like he did with Taylor Swift back in 2009), he stopped—smiled at the audience—and ran back to his seat. Now that would’ve been hailed as a universally hilarious joke, and a sly reference to his past shenanigans… but backstage he began ranting about how Beck isn’t an “artist” and didn’t deserve the award. (Which is completely true, BUT BESIDE THE POINT!) Kanye needs to realize—along with the rest of the internet—that just because one is in possession of an “opinion” it doesn’t necessarily need to be shared with the planet. Take me, for example: I have LOTS of opinions, and yet? I only share, maybe, .000037 percent of them every week. I only give you the good stuff! But even though no one gives a crap, Kanye and the rest of the internet sharts their opinions on you every second of every day. In short: No one wants to hear ALL those opinions, Kanye and the Internet! (And that is my opinion for the week!)

OH, WAIT! One more opinion. I don’t think it’s necessarily a bad thing Kanye interrupts people all the time…I just want him to be more selective, and interrupt the people I want him to interrupt! For example, I think it would be awesome if we paid Kanye to interrupt TV shows other than the Grammys…such as….

Clooney will take the stage and launch into a speech designed to make us feel guilty about something. This is a perfect opportunity for Kanye to jump up, grab the mic, and give a counter lecture on how his wife Kim Kardashian is the Madeleine Albright of pop culture, and scold the audience for not buying his new line of pleather trousers.

• The Odd Couple (CBS, Thur., Feb. 19, 8:30 pm). Based on the Neil Simon play (and early ‘70s TV show), “The Odd Couple” now stars Matthew Perry (Friends) and Thomas Lennon (“Reno 911!”) as divorced roomies, slobby Oscar and fastidious Felix. Kanye will make a surprise guest appearance as himself to interrupt and remind us that true artistry never relies on imitation…except of course, when it comes to all those song samples he’s been borrowing over the years. Ahem.

• Parks and Recreation (NBC, Tues., Feb. 24, 10 pm). Let’s all pay a wistful goodbye to Leslie Knope (Amy Poehler), Ron’s mustache (Nick Offerman’s mustache), and the rest of the P&R staff in the final episode ever of this great series. Oh, wait…Kanye just popped into my office to remind me that, in fact, HE’S the greatest, and that, actually, Beyonce should be writing this column. (DAMN IT, HE’S RIGHT AGAIN!!)

A NewsChannel 21 Special Report Wednesday, Feb. 25 @ 10pm

34 / WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM

ASTROLOGY ARIES (March 21-April 19): There are many

different facets to your intelligence, and each matures at a different rate. So for example, your ability to think symbolically may evolve more slowly than your ability to think abstractly.

Your wisdom about why humans act the way they do may ripen more rapidly than your insight into your own emotions. In the coming weeks, I expect one particular aspect of your intelligence to be undergoing a growth spurt: your knowledge of what your body needs and how to give it what it needs.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): What is the

proper blend for you these days? Is it something like 51 percent pleasure and 49 percent business? Or would you be wiser to shoot for 49 percent pleasure and 51 percent business?

I will leave that decision up to you, Taurus.

Whichever way you go, I suggest that you try to interweave business and pleasure as often as possible. You are in one of those action-packed phases when fun dovetails really well with ambition. I’m guessing that you can make productive connections at parties. I’m betting that you can spice up your social life by taking advantage of what comes to you through your work.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): In 1900, the world’s most renowned mathematicians met at a conference in Paris. There the German whiz David Hilbert introduced his master list of 23 unsolved mathematical problems. At the time, no one had done such an exhaustive inventory. His well-defined challenge set the agenda for math research throughout the 20th century. Today he’s regarded as an influential visionary. I’d love to see you come up with a list of your own top unsolved problems, Gemini. You now have extra insight about the catalytic projects you will be smart to work on and play with during the coming years.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): “Spanipelagic” is an adjective scientists use to describe creatures that typically hang out in deep water but float up to the surface on rare occasions. The term is not a perfect metaphorical fit for you, since you come up for air more often than that. But you do go through phases when you’re inclined to linger for a long time in the abyss, enjoying the dark mysteries and fathomless emotions.

According to my reading of the astrological omens, that’s what you’ve been doing lately.

Any day now, however, I expect you’ll be rising up from the great down below and headed topside for an extended stay.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): When faced with a big decision, you might say you want to “sleep on it.” In other words, you postpone your final determination until you gather more information and ripen your understanding of the pressing issues. And that could indeed involve getting a good night’s sleep. What happens in your dreams may reveal nuances you can’t pry loose with your waking consciousness alone. And even if you don’t recall your dreams, your sleeping mind is busy processing and reworking the possibilities. I recommend that you make liberal use of the “sleep on it” approach in the coming weeks, Leo. Revel in the wisdom that wells up in you as you’re lying down in the dark.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): In 1962, Edward

Albee published his play Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? It won numerous awards and is still performed by modern theater groups. Albee says the title came to him as he was having a beer at a bar in New York City. When he went to the restroom, he spied the words “Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf?” scrawled in soap on the mirror. I urge you to be alert for that kind of inspiration in the coming days, Virgo: unexpected, provocative, and out of context. You never know when and where you may be furnished with clues about the next plot twist of your life story.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Edward III, a medieval English king, had a favorite poet: Geoffrey Chaucer. In 1374, the king promised Chaucer a big gift in appreciation for his talents: a gallon of wine every day for the rest of his life.

That’s not the endowment I would have wanted if I had been Chaucer. I’d never get any work done if I were quaffing 16 glasses of wine every 24 hours. Couldn’t I instead be provided with a

regular stipend? Keep this story in mind, Libra, as you contemplate the benefits or rewards that might become available to you. Ask for what you really need, not necessarily what the giver initially offers.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): To make the cocktail known as Sex on the Beach, you mix together cranberry juice, orange juice, pineapple juice, peach schnapps, and vodka. There is also an alternative “mocktail” called Safe Sex on the Beach. It has the same fruit juices, but no alcohol. Given the likelihood that your inner teenager will be playing an important role in your upcoming adventures, Scorpio, I recommend that you favor the Safe-Sex-on-the-Beach metaphor rather than the Sex-on-the-Beach approach. At least temporarily, it’s best to show a bit of protective restraint toward the wild and sometimes erratic juvenile energy that’s pushing to be expressed.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): In Herman Melville’s short story Bartleby, the Scrivener, a lawyer hires a man named Bartleby to work in his office. At first Bartleby is a model employee, carrying out his assignments with dogged skill. But one day everything begins to change.

Whenever his boss instructs him to do a specific task, Bartleby says, “I would prefer not to.”

As the days go by, he does less and less, until finally he stops altogether. I’d like to propose, Sagittarius, that you take inspiration from his slowdown. Haven’t you done enough for now? Haven’t you been exemplary in your commitment to the daily struggle? Don’t you deserve a break in the action so you can recharge your p s yc ho spi r it u a l batteries? I say yes.

Maybe you will consider making this your battle cry: “I would prefer not to.”

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): “All life

is an experiment. The more experiments you make the better.” That’s what American philosopher Ralph Waldo Emerson advised. Even if you’re not naturally inclined to see the potential wisdom of that approach, I invite you to play around with it for the next three weeks.

You don’t need to do it forever. It doesn’t have to become a permanent fixture in your philosophy. Just for now, experiment with the possibility that trying lots of experiments will lead you not just to new truths, but to new truths that are fun, interesting, and useful.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): The art of the French Aquarian painter Armand Guillaumin (1841-1927) appears in prestigious museums.

He isn’t as famous as his fellow Impressionists Paul Cézanne and Camille Pissarro, but he wielded a big influence on them both. His career developed slowly because he had to work a day job to earn a living. When he was 50 years old, he won a wad of free money in the national lottery, and thereafter devoted himself fulltime to painting. I’m not saying you will enjoy a windfall like that anytime soon, Aquarius, but such an event is possible. At the very least, your income could rise. Your odds of experiencing financial luck will increase to the degree that you work to improve the best gifts you have to offer your fellow humans.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): “It isn’t normal to know what we want,” said pioneering psychologist Abraham Maslow. “It is a rare and difficult psychological achievement.” That’s the bad news, Pisces. The good news is that you may be on the verge of rendering that theory irrelevant. In the coming weeks, you will be better primed to discover what you really want than you have been in a long time. I suggest you do a ritual in which you vow to unmask this treasured secret. Write a formal statement in which you declare your intention to achieve full understanding of the reasons you are alive on this planet.

Homework: Where in your life do you push harder than is healthy? Where do you not push hard enough?

FEBRUARY 19, 2015 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY / 35

NEWS QUIRKS CURSES, FOILED AGAIN

Jeffrey Wood, 19, announced a robbery at a convenience store in Washington, D.C., where two police detectives were shopping. They were in plain clothes, but one had her badge hanging from her neck. She told the suspect, “Stop playing, I got 17,” referring to the number of bullets in her gun. Wood reportedly replied, “I got 17, too.”

He was bluffing, however, and was easily arrested. (The Washington Post) Someone reported two men acting suspiciously in a parked car in Rexburg, ID, but before police could respond, the men, aware that they had been observed, assumed they had been discovered by undercover officers. They called 911 and admitted possessing 20 pounds of marijuana. Rexburg police, who said they had no idea the men were driving through town with drugs, arrived to find Leland Ryan Kaimipono Ayala-Doliente, 21, and Craig Seward, 22, standing outside their car with the pot. (Pocatello’s Idaho State Journal)

VICTIM OF THE WEEK

Adam Wisneski, 31, rode his bicycle to a Chicago police station to report a stolen iPhone. He didn’t have his lock, so he asked if he could leave his bike inside the station. After filling out a police report, he turned around to find someone had stolen his bike. (Chicago’s WBBM Radio)

FORGIVE AND FORGET

After Charlene and Charles Earle drove to a hospital in Orange City, FL, for treatment of injuries from a fight at home, sheriff’s deputies described the couple as “mutual combatants.” Charlene Earle is 83, 4 feet 11 inches tall and weighs 88 pounds. Charles Earle is 87. They’ve been married 64 years. They told authorities they didn’t remember the incident or why they were arguing.

(The Daytona Beach News-Journal)

WHEN GUNS ARE OUTLAWED

Police said Andrew Rak, 28, threatened Will Flanagan, the former mayor of Fall River, MA, with oversized scissors used at ribbon-cutting ceremonies. Rak reportedly stole the prop scissors from Flanagan’s SUV, along with other items, including a small souvenir baseball bat, which he smashed against the ground outside Flanagan’s apartment while stating he was going to “kill the mayor.” Flanagan, who was ousted from office by a recall election in December, confronted Rak, who said, “I’m going to kill you. You lost the election.” (Fall River’s The Herald News) Authorities charged Tewana Sullivan, 50, with murdering her 66-year-old friend by beating her over the head with a slow cooker and tying the cord around her neck. The incident occurred while the two residents of a senior housing complex in Livonia, MI, argued over “presidential politics,” Sullivan’s lawyer said, and “whatever the controversy is between Democrats and Republicans.” (The Detroit News)

OVERREACTION

Mitzi Lynn Martinez, 50, admitted setting fire to a tent where two men were sleeping after drinking beer with them at her home in Palm Bay, FL. She said she gave one of the men $15 to go buy more beer, then got into a “heated argument” with the other one, who left. He met the other man, and they took the beer to their tent.

Five hours later, Martinez lit a soft drink container filled with lighter fluid and rolled it down an embankment toward the tent, which burst into flames. Police charged her with attempted murder. (Orlando Sentinel)

MR. UNLUCKY

Motorist Michael S. Baumann, 20, hit bicyclist Darryl Isaacs, 50, from behind in Indian Hills, KY. Witnesses confirmed that Isaacs was signaling a left turn when he was struck and thrown back into the car’s windshield and on to the pavement. Police Chief Kelly Spratt said Isaacs is lucky to be alive. Isaacs is a well-known personal injury attorney who markets himself as the “Heavy Hitter” and the “Kentucky Hammer” for his firm’s success in recovering $500 million in benefits for his clients. (Louisville’s The Courtier-Journal)

BUZZ KILLS

One byproduct of legalized marijuana is a rash of exploding houses, according to Colorado authorities, who reported 32 such blasts across the state last year. The incidents result from people using flammable liquids, mostly butane, to extract hash oil from marijuana. “They get enough vapors inside the building, and it goes off,” Grand Junction fire marshal Chuck Mathis said. No one has been killed, but the fires have injured dozens of people, including 17 who received skin grafts and surgery at the University of Colorado Hospital’s burn center. Arguing that such tragedies aren’t crimes because of the 2012 constitutional amendment that legalized marijuana use, including processing, attorney Robert Corry said using butane to make hash oil is “the equivalent of frying turkey for Thanksgiving,” where “someone spills the oil, and there’s an explosion.” (The New York Times) Spanish authorities on the resort island of Ibiza said Dimitrina Dimitrova, 29, was so excited when her boyfriend proposed to her at a scenic spot overlooking the Mediterranean Sea that she began jumping up and down, lost her balance and fell 65 feet to her death. (Britain’s Daily Mail)

SHIRKING-CLASS HERO

A.K. Verma, an assistant executive engineer at India’s Central Public Works Department (CPWD), went on leave in 1990 but declined to return to work. “He went on seeking extension of leave, which was not sanctioned, and defied directions to report to work,” a government statement said, noting that an inquiry found Verma guilty of “willful absence from duty” in 1992. He remained on unauthorized leave for another 22 years, however, before Urban Development Minister M. Venkaiah Naidu finally ordered his dismissal to “streamline the functioning of CPWD and to ensure accountability.” (Britain’s The Guardian)

INSENSITIVITY LESSONS

The Irish school Colaiste Eoin in Stillorgan canceled a workshop on homophobic bullying after its board of management decided “both sides of the argument should be represented.” (Britain’s Metro) Philadelphia’s Bryn Mawr College drew criticism after sending overweight students an email advertising a fitness program. Targeted students with “elevated” body mass indexes were identified by information from the school’s health center. Center Director Dr. Kay Kerr apologized “to anyone who has been upset or offended by our communication.” (NBC News)

THEM THAT HAS, GETS

Although China owns at least $1.3 trillion of the U.S. debt, the U.S. government sent it $12.3 million in foreign aid last year and is handing it another $6.8 million this year. An official for the State Department’s USAID program said the money is earmarked to help Tibetan communities “preserve their threatened cultural traditions” and to help China “address environmental conservation and strengthen the rule of law.”

THE ADVICE GODDESS

Beak Experience

I recently started dating this new girl. I asked her whether her lips and boobs are real (and it turns out they are). However, I did call her out on having a nose job. She admitted it but seemed kind of upset. It’s the truth. And she’s beautiful, however she got that way. What’s the problem? —Just Curious AMY ALKON

At least you didn’t hold her up to the light like a hundred-dollar bill to look for the hologram.

The fact that you have a thought is not reason enough to let it out to roam the streets, exposing it to the ladies. As I write in Good Manners for Nice People Who Sometimes Say F*ck, at the root of manners is empathy. So before speaking to someone—especially someone you’re dating—ask yourself, “Gee, wonder whether she’ll feel all warm and fuzzy inside when I point to her boobs and ask, ‘Yours or cubic zirconia?’”

The reality is people often spin the truth to present themselves in a better light, just as businesses do. (Your cable company does not really “value your time,” and unless you’re a wino, I’m pretty sure Miller High Life is not “the Champagne of beers.”) However, evolu-

tionary psychology research by William Tooke and Lori Camire finds that men and women tend to fudge their presentation in different ways. Because women evolved to prioritize men with the ability to “provide,” men are far more likely than women to be deceptive about their finances. (You sure don’t see women doing as a male friend of mine did. He lived in a dumpy apartment and drove an old Nissan that looked like it got used for soccer practice by Godzilla and Mothra, but he had me take a photo of him for his online dating profile in a beautiful neighborhood—in front of some stranger’s Porsche.)

On the flip side, because men evolved to prioritize physical attractiveness in women (with the features men find beautiful reflecting health and fertility), women are most likely to be deceptive about their looks (those factory installed by the assembly line boss known as Mother Nature). That’s why women are extremely sensitive about a man parsing their appearance—as men are when a woman sizes up their finances and position. So, for the future, keep in mind that there’s a reason the term is “beauty secrets” and not “beauty announcements.” To reset the balance—so she isn’t insecure about your feelings regarding her appearance—get in the habit of saying something nice about what she’s wearing and if she looks particularly sparkly some night. And do try to maintain perspective on the level of transformation here. She was merely born with a different nose; she wasn’t born “Alan” or “Bruce.” (c)2015, Amy Alkon, all rights reserved.
