I talked to other floaters at McKay Park and they reflected the same sentiment, “We thought it was going to be flat water and we could go in both directions.” “It doesn’t look deep enough for my boat.” I’m very happy that the whitewater boaters got what they wanted. I recall the struggle to turn Parks and Rec’s head away from a proposed golf course and focus on a project that we, the Bend Community, could all enjoy (either actively or as a visual participant). But the majority of the river play will not be tiny boats in the center channel; it will be various rafters and those with larger boats wanting to navigate from Farewell Bend Park to Drake Park without a portage. The present floaters channel doesn’t allow that. Inner tube floaters even had trouble going down that channel. We’ve experienced politicians claiming “Mission Accomplished” before. Our property tax bill will arrive soon. Be sure to note how you give to Parks and Rec every year. Perhaps we can find a way to gently remind them to provide the community what they promised. —Treading Water

UNCOMMON CANNABIS COURTESY This is a matter of life and death. My husband will go into anaphylactic shock if he eats or smokes the smallest amount of pot. One bite could cause severe shock or death. And if this happens to him, I’m sure it could happen to others. Unfortunately, I know of too many examples of people thinking it’s fun to give pot brownies, etc., to unknowing friends. You may have experienced this yourselves, it’s so common. That’s why I’m raising this alarm, and begging all pot brownie and other edibles lovers, never give a sample to anyone without letting them know of the pot content. Your well-intended fun could turn into tragedy. —JRD

OREGON’S PLAN TO KILL COUGARS The State of Oregon is proposing to expand trophy hunting of our state’s cougars, and officials have no plausible rationale for it. Their reasoning is that cougars are taking too many

With all the congratulations and backslapping after the [Bend Whitewater Park] spillway project opened, for many, it was a bit of a disappointment. In every photo of the proposed completed project—including the 6-foot by 8-foot photo at the McKay site—the “floater’s passage” is shown as calm flat water channel, wide enough for watercraft going in both directions. That’s what we voted for; that’s not what we got.

mule deer, and that leaves fewer deer for hunters to kill. You want hunters to wipe out more of our native cats because they are eating deer? Eating deer is what cougars do and is what balances our ecosystem. If there are fewer deer because the food chain is working properly, then we simply need to issue fewer hunting licenses this year. Maybe next year the hunters will win, but this year it would seem that the cougars have it. The bottom line is that this logic has no place in public policy. The state not only wants to kill cougars, but they want to use methods that many would consider unsportsmanlike. Federal Wildlife Services agents are allowed to kill cougars with painful traps called “neck snares.” And, although Oregonians have consistently voted to ban hunting cougars with dogs, government volunteer hunters are still allowed to set radio-collared hounds loose to track and chase cougars until the cats are cornered. Using GPS technology, hunters follow the signals from the hounds’ collars and show up in time to shoot the cornered cougar. A method that’s dangerous for the hounds and unfair to the cougars. It’s a case of trophy hunting, plain and simple. I have just called the Department of Fish and Wildlife to tell them I oppose this plan, and I hope everyone who reads this will do the same: 541-388-6363. —Megan Gram

PLANNED PARENTHOOD: A VITAL RESOURCE IN BEND In February of 2014, I went to East Cascade Women’s Group to get an IUD, reportedly the most effective form of birth control. A few months down the line I began having symptoms of pregnancy, such as loss of period, weight gain, and mood swings. I blew these signs off as related to the hormones in my new birth control. My OBGYN had specifically informed me that losing my period is a normal side effect of an IUD. After a while my intuition led me to take a pregnancy test, which revealed that I was, indeed, pregnant. The hours that followed were nothing like they are in the movies. I was overcome with shock and a multitude of confusing emotions that I had a hard time sorting through. I have always believed myself to be a “prochoice” woman, and thought that if I found myself to be pregnant against my desire I would have an abortion. I never thought the choice would be difficult. Goes to show you never know how you will react to any given situation until you’re in it. I was angry that politics had polarized and simplified what was suddenly a very challenging, multi-faceted, complex, decision. Pro-choice or pro-life. For it or against it. It was not that easy. For reasons that I do not feel the need to

explain nor justify here I decided to have an abortion. It was not an easy choice, but it was the right choice for me and for that tiny spirit inside me. Abortions are not offered at St. Charles. My only option in Bend for an abortion was at Planned Parenthood. However, due to potential complications during the procedure from my IUD, I flew back to my parent’s home to have the operation in a hospital setting. I am fortunate to have had the support I needed during this difficult time. But this isn’t about me. This is about Planned Parenthood. Planned Parenthood is a resource for women (and men) in Central Oregon who need information about safe sex, birth control, STD testing, and abortion/ adoption/birthing options. Planned Parenthood is under a moral attack on a national scale at the moment. For the sake of brevity I will not recap the allegations made against the organization, though I do encourage you to read articles from both sides of the story before making your own conclusion about the hot topic at hand. Planned Parenthood provides an option for women in Bend. Planned Parenthood is not the enemy. The only enemy I have seen present in the abortion/Planned Parenthood debate is the evil which silences and shames women into thinking they have only one choice, whether that is to keep or abort their unplanned pregnancy. Central Oregon needs both St. Charles and Planned Parenthood. Options. Choices. We can show support for our local Planned Parenthood by offering our time as a volunteer, donating money, or standing by the

building and demonstrating our appreciation for their services. I am up for a Planned Parenthood parade if you ever need a sign-holding partner. —Lucy Bosche

You Can, But You Shouldn't

541-318-0090

ver the past several months, we’ve noticed a change in the air. No, it’s not the arrival of autumn, but the growing number of Confederate flags billowing in the breeze. From an impromptu summertime demonstration of cars and trucks decked out in the “rebel” flag, to now, local high school students flying it on school grounds, the controversial symbol is flapping around a lot lately. With that increased visibility comes murmurs about what the flag means and what—if anything—should be done about it. The quick response is to reinforce the right to free speech, regardless of how offensive that speech might be. We certainly support the right of individuals to speak out without infringement by the government. But we can’t stop there. There’s a larger conversation to be had about the proliferation of a symbol, ostensibly representative of Southern pride, but that many view as racist. In Bend, symbols like the Confederate battle flag and the “Don’t Tread on Me” flag must be taken in both historical and local contexts. These symbols don’t exist in a vacuum. And while it’s popular to call the Confederate battle flag a symbol of Southern pride, such claims are disingenuous in the Pacific Northwest. Let’s be honest. This isn’t a Southern state and we are not celebrating a traditional culture of mint juleps and antebellum lifestyle. Even in the South, the Confederate flag carries racist baggage. According to a CNN report, the Confederate battle flag appeared only sporadically following the Civil War, typically to commemorate fallen Confederate soldiers. It didn’t reappear as a political symbol until the civil rights movement sought to desegregate schools. But even before that reemergence, the flag was born out of a succession movement that had as a primary aim the preservation of the institution of slavery.

In Central Oregon, these symbols take on their own context. Divorced from any real Southern roots, only the racism and anti-government inclinations remain. Those two attitudes in combination can pose a serious threat to communities that value diversity, inclusion, and the rule of law. In a local context, they can only be read as a defiant statement against an increasingly pluralistic society, in which the 14th Amendment—which includes equal protection under the law—is upheld for a growing portion of the population. It’s all well and good to say that the best remedy for offensive speech is not to stifle it, but to encourage a conversation around it. Without that conversation— ideally between those who oppose what the Confederate flag represents and those who choose to fly it—our community could increasingly become a place where those who seek to stifle the rights of others find a home. One’s right to fly the Confederate flag freely does not preclude a critical response from the community. We can’t—and shouldn’t—seek to prohibit speech we find intolerable. But we ought to stand up and say, “That speech is offensive in our community.” There is no good reason for Bendites to fly the Confederate battle flag. Even Gen. Robert E. Lee, who led the men in service to the Confederate Army, distanced himself from the flag after the war, preferring instead to support reconstruction and national unity. Even Lee could see that the flag and all it stood for was a divisive symbol with no place in post-reconstruction life.Yes, we have a right to display the Confederate battle flag. But it would be more in line with our nation’s founding principles if we used that freedom of speech to express something even more powerful— that racism has no place in our community.

Fight for Your Right to Party SIDE NOTES By Erin Rook

Riverside Market riles neighbors By Erin Rook

s Bend’s oldest neighborhoods continue to grow and adapt, not all of those changes are welcome. One such growing pain is emerging in the Old Bend Neighborhood, where the Riverside Market and Pub’s popular patio scene is rubbing some neighbors the wrong way. Once a corner store of sorts, Riverside Market still has a convenience store component. But the market has expanded over the years to become more of a bar environment, with a full liquor license and a basic menu featuring pub favorites like grilled cheese and tots. And while the market/bar has a consistent crowd of regulars who frequent the establishment’s outdoor seating area— complete with corn hole, basketball, and a fire pit—some neighbors say the business has outgrown its residential zoning and conditional use permit. The most recent conditional use permit for Riverside Market dates back to 1997, when the owners sought approval for a small language school to meet in the space. Since that time, it has added full alcohol service and expansive outdoor seating, gaining a large—and sometimes rambunctious—clientele. Though the neighborhood is zoned RM— Residential Medium—the market was grandfathered in with its historic use. But that zoning does not permit a restaurant or bar outright. To continue in that vein, the current owners need to secure a new conditional use permit to cover the way they’ve been using the space since they purchased the property in 2010. They have an application in with the City and appeared before a hearings' officer on September 15. However, the record remains open because the site plan submitted by the applicant failed to meet City code, and as such could not be evaluated by the hearings' officer. According to City staff, the property had been used as a grocery store starting in the early 1930s. In 1997, the City approved a conditional use permit—essentially giving

the owners permission to use the property for something other than what the zoning allowed outright—for evening language classes. Shortly after the approval, ownership changed hands. Two years later, the space was being used for music performances, volleyball games, and as a residence. Following a code complaint, the City ordered the owner to stop the musical events. By 2000, ownership once more changed hands. Fast forward to 2015, and the market received another code enforcement complaint, this time about the building’s use as a restaurant, a non-conforming commercial use. In order to continue offering that service, the City told owners they would need to apply for another conditional use permit to continue offering food and beverage service. As of September4, the City had received ten letters opposed to issuing the permit, and three in support. Those opposed expressed concerns about noise, garbage, parking, smoking, the alcohol-driven nature of the business, and effects on neighborhood property values. One neighbor, who asked not to be identified for fear of retaliation, shared video with The Source that shows patrons gathering to smoke on neighborhood sidewalks (since Riverside’s recent ban on smoking on its property), shouting and swearing, and what appears to be the dumping of kitchen grease into a storm drain. “It’s grown and evolved into a bar,” the neighbor explained. “The main concern for the neighbors is we don’t want an alcohol-fueled business in the middle of a residential neighborhood in Bend.” The neighbor pointed out that to allow a residential zoned property to operate as a commercial business—in this case, a bar— sets a precedent for other businesses that have been grandfathered into residential areas, including those zoned Neighborhood Commercial, like the nearby building that houses an antique shop, The Iron Horse, and is currently for sale.

He noted that as of August 31, more than 250 police dispatches have been sent to the Riverside since 2010. Those calls include 48 noise complaints, 27 drug and alcohol related dispatches, three assaults, and documented harassment of neighbors. But not all neighbors are opposed to granting Riverside Market’s request. One member of the Old Bend Neighborhood Association (OBNA) submitted testimony to the City asking that the permit be approved with the condition it remain smoke free, and calling out his fellow neighbors for protesting. “I live about one block away on Riverfront Street and go to the market regularly. In various incarnations, it has been a fixture in the neighborhood for many years,” wrote OBNA board member John Kelly. “I find it offensive that people move into a neighborhood and then want the neighborhood to change… My only problem with the market was that they allowed smoking, but that changed at the beginning of July, and it has now become even more of a neighborhood institution.” Riverside Market management were not available for comment before press time, but have encouraged their patrons to write to the City to show their support. There is no question that the Riverside Market and Pub has become a local hot spot. The degree to which neighbors appreciate its current incarnation appears to depend on what they think the neighborhood should look and feel like. Most neighbors reiterated that they don’t want to see the Riverside go out of business, they just want it to shift away from an outside bar setting, to a quieter family-friendly gathering place. “While we are not against the Market having food service with outdoor seating,” says neighbor Brett Yost in his comment to the City, “we are not comfortable living next to such an alcohol-driven business as the Market has recently been.”

Bend is growing, and the City wants residents’ input on where exactly that growth should occur. To that end, it’s hosting an online survey weighing various Urban Growth Boundary (UGB) expansion scenarios currently being considered by the City. The survey uses the same type of interactive tool as a previous UGB survey that allowed Bendites to give complex feedback on their preferences for how and where the pending expansion occurs. The survey should take about 10-15 minutes to complete and can be accessed at bendugb. metroquest.com. The City will also hold a public meeting about UGB expansion scenarios on Thursday, October 1 from 6:30 to 8:30 pm at the Riverbend Community Room, 799 SW Columbia St.

Native American perspectives on Edward Curtis’ iconic photography By Erin Rook

While critical perspectives on Curtis’ work are largely glowing, reactions from Native folks are more varied. “First, there is a very prideful and positive response to seeing the faces of so many Indigenous people covering the West,” Lowry explains. But as more Indigenous people join the conversations happening in academia and the art world, that response is becoming more nuanced. “I think the essence of contemporary Indigenous responses to this body of work has to do with the perpetuation of stereotypes and untold histories.” Despite the large volume of work Curtis created, the photos don’t always tell the full story. Though his project purported to document Indigenous communities at risk of disappearing—and though Curtis has been described as an ethnographer—critics note that his photos were frequently staged in a way that erased the realities of the time in favor of an idyllic past. “I do not see the work of Edward Curtis as being anthropological. Curtis practiced too many manipulations and omissions in his work for it to be documentary,” Lowry says. “Everything I have read about Curtis leads me to think that he was motivated by his impulse to express his personal creative vision and aesthetic. Curtis also sought a high degree of exposure and notoriety. None of this detracts from the technical skill and creative genius behind his work, but it is very different from the idea of Edward Curtis as an ethnographer.” These manipulations and omissions ranged from removing physical objects that spoke to modern life to redacting the names of his models. “Edward Curtis gave his photographs titles like ‘Old Salish Woman’ when he had full knowledge of his model’s actual name,” she points out. Reducing individuals to cultural caricatures is by no means exclusive to Curtis’ work. Other iconic portraits likewise hold up specific people as a sort of shorthand for cultural or economic circumstances, such as Steve McCurry’s 1984 photo, “Afghan Girl,” and Dorthea Lange’s 1936 photo, “Migrant Woman.” One way Native communities are reclaiming ownership of Curtis subject matter is by working to identify the people in the photograph, reuniting their personhood with their photographic depiction. Lowry says there are also efforts underway to give Native people access to photographs of their ancestors held in major collections. And while Curtis failed to ensure this kind of accuracy and access in his lifetime, she says that his body of work is still of value to Native American people, despite the complexities.

“I do wonder what our collective ideas about Native peoples would look like today if Curtis had chosen to photograph what was really going on during his lifetime,” Lowry says. “What I mean by that is, Curtis did not take pictures of children being torn from their mother’s arms because they were being forced to go to boarding schools. Curtis did not show the forced removals, the death, the starvation, or any of the strife of that time.”

Edward Curtis

It is within this context, and against the backdrop of a major showing of Curtis’ work in Bend hosted by Atelier 6000, that Native American Art History professor Justine Lowry explores contemporary response by Native Americans to his celebrated photographs.

Still, she can’t help but wonder how Curtis’ legacy—and impact on attitudes about Indigenous people—might have shifted had he taken a more documentary approach.

Had Curtis photographed the “often brutal” reality of the times...would it have impacted our understanding of the history? Perhaps.

Had Curtis photographed the “often brutal” reality of the times, she wonders, would it have impacted our understanding of the history? Perhaps. But because Curtis’ worked hinged on the fascination of white Americans with a predetermined, almost mythical, version of Native American life, he may not have secured funding and an audience any other way. While exhibits of Curtis’ work no doubt raise some degree of awareness about Native American people in a society where they are so often discounted, Lowry notes that the impact of his photos depends on how well-educated the audience is. Typically, they don’t know much. “As someone who has worked on behalf of Native American students in higher education, I have very often been surprised at the lack of knowledge or understanding about Native cultures when communicating with mainstream folks,” says Lowry, who previously served as Central Oregon Community College’s Native American Program Coordinator. “I do not claim to know everything about Native cultures, but I know a bit about my own—Maidu, Pit River, Washoe—and that has helped me to understand our world in a way that is unique to Native people. I do not often run into non-Native people who discuss colonization or the lasting effects of colonization on a regular basis.” Lowry’s upcoming talk, “Shadow Catcher: Edward Curtis Through Native Eyes,” will explore artistic responses to Curtis’ work as a way to talk back to what was otherwise a one-sided exchange. Among the images she’ll be discussing is a painting by her grandmother Judith Lowry, called “My Aunt Viola.” The painting (shown to the left) is based on a photograph of the elder Lowry’s aunt, who took a temporary job at a local fair dressing up and parading around as an “Indian”—that is, in the dress and style that the public had come to expect from Hollywood Westerns. Curtis’ photos, which present a staged snapshot of Native life, elicit complex emotions, ripe for discussion. “The pictures are of human beings with individual lives, stories and depth beyond my scope of knowing,” Lowry explains. “My reaction to these photos are of awe and sadness. They are incredibly beautiful but I understand some of what was happening to Native people during this time in history and what is still going on today, so there will always be sadness.”

“Curtis photographed human beings; mothers, grandmothers, fathers, grandfathers, and children,” Lowry says. “This alone is a gift for the descendants.”

ike many creators of iconic portraits, Edward S. Curtis became famous for taking photos of people whose names the average viewer is unlikely to ever know. His prolific work—thousands of striking sepia-tone portraits of Indigenous people living in the American West in the early 1900s—offers a romanticized perspective on Native life shaped by Curtis’ aesthetic and the influence of big money.

Hero SUGGESTS SOUND Hometown Sara Jackson-Holman returns to Bend for Fall Fest By Anne Pick

By Josh Gross 13

THE VON TRAPPS

Sara Jackson-Holman,singer-songwriter and Bend native, performs at Bend Fall Fest, on the Main Stage at 11 am, 10/3.

ometimes, the real gems are buried beneath the headliners. That’s the case at the upcoming Bend Fall Festival, where one of the most interesting acts is slated not for the end-of-evening slot, but instead is opening the main stage on Saturday. Bend native Sara Jackson-Holman—who shot from total unknown to the national spotlight after someone from a record label read a comment she made on Blind Pilot’s Myspace page saying they influenced her music—takes the stage at 11 am, but is worth showing up early for. “It wasn’t too like ‘the top,’ but at least, it was like a rocket to somewhere for sure,” jokes Holman. “I was nowhere before.” One place it took Holman was Portland, where the larger population of musicians and the plethora of creativity-inspiring rainy days gave her the opportunity to broaden her scope and produce several albums of piano-based electronic pop that earns comparisons to ballad queens like Amy Winehouse and Lana Del Rey, as well as indie-pop performer Feist. “She truly has a captivating voice that rivals that of several neo-soul chanteuses filling the airwaves, iPods, and large venues around the world,” wrote Scott Lewis in The Oregonian. But in the several years since, Holman

says that thrill-ride has faded to being more of a quirky anecdote, which is fine with her. Especially since it calms the fervor a bit when she returns home to perform, as she has done every year or so since she left Bend five years ago.

to rearrange anything.”

“Now that I’ve been away, it feels like vacation,” says Holman. “It took awhile for it to not feel like home.”

But sometimes life has other plans.

But don’t get her wrong. Her home may now be Portland, but she’s a hometown girl, and that makes playing at Fall Fest a special treat. “I’ve always enjoyed going to those festivals,” says Holman. “I grew up with them, long before I even considered songwriting.” But those attending her performance will be in for as much of a treat as Holman. Her set will be a complete cover-to-cover preview of her next album, which she is still in the process of recording, and which represents a big shift from much of her earlier work. Instead of playing with a full band, Holman will take the stage armed only with her piano and her voice for a stripped-down solo performance. “My last couple albums I didn’t write for solo performance, but with the full band in mind,” says Holman. “But the way I’ve approached this album is as a singer-songwriter album. So I don’t even really have

Originally, Holman says she wanted to make it a double-album, with the first half composed of the stripped-down approach and the second re-imagining those songs in a more flushed-out pop format. “I had to write it,” says Holman, of her new material. Sonically, Holman says the album has hints of Leonard Cohen and The Bee Gees and Nancy Sinatra. But lyrically, the currently-unnamed collection is a concept album chronicling the rise and fall of Holman’s years-long relationship with her producer, who is also recording the album. “It’s pretty weird for both of us to have this album be about our relationship and to then record it together in the months afterward,” says Holman. “It’s weird, but I feel like it could be weirder.” The album won’t be out until early next year, so Fall Fest attendees will truly be getting the inside scoop on what Holman has been up to.

When you’re the great-grandchildren of the infamous Captain and Maria von Trapp, there’s somewhat of a legacy to honor, which explains why siblings Sofia, Melanie, Amanda, and August have banded together. The von Trapps combine folk and pop for a classical and global sound. Having relocated to Portland, the band recruited Israel Nebeker, the lead singer and songwriter of Blind Pilot, to produce their first album in this incarnation of the band. 7 pm. Wednesday, October 7. McMenamins Old St. Francis School, 700 NW Bond St. No cover.

GODDAMN GALLOWS, DIRTY KID DISCOUNT, HARLEY BOURBON As one of the most recognizable names in the psychobilly-country scene, The Goddamn Gallows have fine tuned their self-described twanged-out punk rock gutterbilly.

Joined by local outlaw country/rock favorites Harley Bourbon and Portland-based gypsy rockers Dirty Kid Discount, look forward to a hard-rocking night of alt-punk and alt-country. 8 pm.

Surrealistic Fellows Hot Tuna sings the blues By Jared Rasic 15

SW: What sort of special celebration do you have set for the upcoming 50th anniversary of Jefferson Airplane? JK: We just did it at Lockn’ [Festival in Arlington, Virginia]. We were lucky to play some amazing artists for this special set. GE Smith, Larry Campbell, Teresa Williams, Jeff Pehrson, and Rachel Price from Lake Street Dive.

Kaukonen and Casady formed Hot Tuna during a hiatus in the Jefferson Airplane touring schedule while Grace Slick was recovering from a throat-node surgery. Their early material was mostly comprised of Airplane material and covers of blues legends like Jelly Roll Morton and Bo Carter.

SW: What is next after the tour? It looks like you are pretty busy through the end of the year. JK: We’ve both got more teaching at Fur Peace Ranch, more writing, more touring, and more time to spend with our families. SW: What is one of your favorite Jefferson Airplane memories?

Their newest album, Steady As She Goes— released in 2011, after a 21-year gap in studio albums—fulfills the promise of their earlier work. The album is bluesy to its core, raspy, and grungy all the way through and a damn fine blues album all around.

JK: Having coffee with Bobby Kennedy. SW: Do you have more fun playing the electric or acoustic shows or are they different enough beasts to be equally gratifying?

We chatted with Kaukonen about his psychedelic voyage from Jefferson Airplane to Hot Tuna. Source Weekly: In this reporter’s opinion, “Embryonic Journey” is what the human soul sounds like. Was that what you were going after? Jorma Kaukonen: The recording of “Embryonic Journey” was a total afterthought by the producer, Rick Jarrard. None of us had even considered including this song on Surrealistic Pillow. Who knew? It turned out to be one of my most popular songs on so many levels. SW: You and Jack have been playing together since the ’60s. What is it like

JK: It’s apples and oranges. They are equally gratifying.

to wait so long for more?

SW: For someone who has never heard Hot Tuna, what can they expect from the Bend performance?

JK: I guess it just seemed right for a studio [album], so we made it and we guarantee that no one will have to wait that long again.

JK: The audience can expect to hear a complete retrospective as well as tunes from the latest Hot Tuna and my solo albums.

The masterful duo, Hot Tuna, performs an acoustic show at the Tower Theatre, 10/6.

performing and making albums with someone you have so much experience and connection with? Is that sort of shorthand invaluable? JK: Of course that sort of shorthand is invaluable. That said, it’s both comfortable and exciting at the same time. Playing together never gets old. We are each other’s oldest friends. SW: What inspired this new Hot Tuna album after 21 years? Will people have

SW: “Goodbye to the Blues” is a powerful and inspirational song that sticks with me. What was the inspiration and initial spark for that piece? JK: The song was brought to me by Barry

Mitterhoff and it seemed just as powerful and compelling to me.

ot Tuna could easily be described as legendary, but the often-overused word hardly contains what Jorma Kaukonen and Jack Casady have meant to music over the last half-century. As members of Jefferson Airplane, with Kaukonen on lead guitar and Casady on bass, they helped define psychedelic rock—a definition that hasn’t changed much since its inception. With Hot Tuna, they have shifted to a more melodic and thoughtful blues rock.

ART WATCH

Hey, Tiny, Hey!

Small art show packs a big punch By Alli Miles

View the Tiny Hey Art Show at tbd's loft during the First Friday Art Walk, 10/2.

n October, Bend is delivering a whole month of “cultural goodness,” as Angela Reid—writer, creative director, and the mind behind the Tiny Hey art project—calls it. The town will host the BendFilm Festival, Bend Venture Conference, Swivel Marketing Conference, Bend Design Conference, and more. Mix in the cyclocross events, the Zombie Run, and Halloween at Deschutes Brewery, and Bend will be humming with creativity and energy. Tiny Hey is kicking things off with the official launch of its postcard-writing exchange project and the first Tiny Hey Art Show on Friday, October 2. Back in August, Tiny Hey called on Central Oregon residents to submit artwork under a specific theme. The theme was “Guts,” meaning: “Courage. Cojones. Chutzpah. Sisu. Whatever you call it! Whatever it takes. When’s the last time you did something that scared you? What do guts look like or feel like to you? Who do you know or admire with guts? What brave act do you dream of doing?” Tiny Hey asked the community to take this theme and run with it, to find inspiration and get creative, and then to submit guts-themed art to the project. Central Oregon answered the call, and now, Tiny Hey has selected the top-five pieces for the Tiny Hey Art Show. Although this is only the first step for the project, it’s a big one. “Even though the project has yet to really materialize—it is still just an idea, until next Friday when it becomes a tangible thing—the community has responded with such interest and enthusiasm and willingness to participate. That’s been very gratifying,” Reid says. The art show will ignite the next phase of the project: storytelling and postcard exchange. “What I’m most excited about is getting it out of my hands and into the hands of the community. This project is not supposed to be about me. It’s about giving a voice to others,” adds Reid. Tiny Hey is a reminder that we all have stories to tell. The idea behind the Tiny Hey project is that when we share our stories,

we learn that we are much more connected than we realized. Sharing a story with others is an intimate experience—one that is profoundly personal, yet universal. Tiny Hey feeds the creative spirit and inspires the relationship building, sense of community, and cross-cultural awareness that comes from putting ourselves out there and exchanging stories with people we don’t know. Coinciding with the First Friday Art Walk and Fall Festival, October 2 will be an exciting night to be roaming around downtown Bend. To view the Tiny Hey artwork and learn more about the project, head over to the tbd advertising gallery, located above the Patagonia store at 1000 NW Wall Street Suite 201. The art will continue to be on display at tbd for a few weeks after the show, during normal office hours, from 8 am-5 pm. Get involved in the Tiny Hey art and story-sharing project by picking up a printed postcard at the art show. One side of the postcard will feature the selected artwork, and the other side will be blank. That’s where the stories go. Like the artists, writers and storytellers are asked to stick with the same “guts” theme for their stories. A mailbox for collecting the postcards will be present at tbd during the Tiny Hey Art Show on October 2. However, participants who don’t want to write their story on the spot can take it with them and submit it to the mailbox’s semi-permanent home (for the month of October) at Lone Pine Coffee Roasters in Tin Pan Alley. The postcards will be posted online at tinyhey.com for public viewing. Each month will have a new theme for the art-story-postcard exchange, as well as a new mailbox location. Check back with the Tiny Hey website, Facebook page, and Instagram account to receive the latest updates, monthly themes, and mailbox locations.

Celebrate the transitioning seasons (or escape the stormy weather) at the High Desert Museum, and learn how weather shapes us at the “Rain, Snow, or Shine” exhibit. This exhibit examines our understanding of all types of weather—rain, sunshine, snow, and hail—and how weather plays a role in our lives. How we dress, the type of food we grow, our daily work and activities, and how we use precious resources like water are all affected by the weather patterns we experience and the way we forecast weather. Anyone who has made plans—or changed plans—based on the weather, prepared for any activity based on the forecast, or cooked a particular meal to suit the weather (say, slow-cooked chili in the crockpot on a damp, bitterly cold day), will appreciate—and hopefully learn something new at—the “Rain, Snow, and Shine” exhibit. From shifting seasons to broader patterns and impacts on the environment, we are shaped by the weather just as surely as a gnarled juniper tree clinging to a high ridge is shaped by driving wind, snow, ice, and intense sunshine on one of our nearby mountains. The “Rain, Snow, or Shine” exhibit is open now through February 21, 2016.

he seasons are changing in Central Oregon, sometimes violently swinging between intense summerlike heat waves and raging winter storms, with moments of calm that resemble the mild autumn season: bluebird skies, warm sunny days, and chilly evenings. At some point during the past few weeks, or perhaps only the past few days, the leaves have begun to change, shifting to red, orange, and golden yellow. Soon, they will be crunching under our feet. A few wildflowers can still be found holding on, poking through the snow that has dusted the high alpine meadows.

Street Pop Maestro

An artist profile of Matthew Nicolau By Jared Rasic 27 gorization will suffice: “While it’s easy to look at my work and try to simply categorize it as pop art, there is also an undeniable influence from the graffiti and street art movements. I loathe calling myself a pop artist and I can’t say that I’m a street artist either because I’m not working in the streets.”

“For me, making art is not an intellectualized venture,” Nicolau writes in his artist statement. “Making art is a frontier of playful aesthetics and wild dreaming...I start down the path of a particular piece with an idea of where I want to go, but no clue what I will find when I finally get there. During the process, I discover the colors, the shapes, the character, and the content that tells my story, while at the same time taking me on an uncertain adventure.”

Nicolau grew up in Fresno, California, “in what people and pop culture euphemistically refer to as the ‘ghetto.’ My mother was mentally ill and not very present and I had never met my father,” he explains. “I grew up pretty much doing the things that kids do to survive in those kind of violent unstable environments. School of hard knocks.”

He defines his work as contemporary street pop, as if any easy cate-

He relocated to Bend when he was 19, reinventing himself instantly. After enrolling

at Central Oregon Community College in forestry and finding it wasn’t for him, he dove into the photography program until he realized that Bend wasn’t big enough for him and sought new adventures. Getting accepted to NYU started him on that path. When waiting tables wasn’t enough to keep him enrolled in school, he took a job at an art gallery in SoHo called The Time is Always Now, which was dedicated floor-to-ceiling to the work of Peter Beard.

Peter Beard. Unreal glamour and page 6 gossip in the New York Post.”

“A year later they made me the manager of the entire archive, estimated to have about 2.5 million Peter Beard negatives, hundreds of prints, and other rare stuff. I regularly handled original Salvador Dali drawings, original Warhol creations, Francis Bacon paintings, Peter’s many photos of all these artists, as well as Picasso and Karen Blixen and Rolling Stones and on and on and on,” Nicolau recalls. “Another year later I was still managing the archive, but also doing sales upstairs. I made $1,500 a day in commission sometimes...The gallery atmosphere was cocaine and naked super models; celebrities that were star-struck to meet

After graduating, he started taking acting classes at the legendary Stella Adler Studio. After studying for a few years and getting some work, it still wasn’t the challenge he was looking for. After making a documentary about finding his birth father in Iran, moving to Los Angeles to become an actor, and becoming disillusioned with the whole thing, Nicolau remembered his initial love of mixed-media collages and constructions. After many more adventures (the entirety of which will be available to read on bendsource.com), he found himself back in Bend with his first solo show ever coming up.

Eventually, he became first assistant to Peter Beard, learning a lot about being an artist in the process. “During that time I started messing around with mixed-media stuff,” he says. “Rocks, bones, driftwood, any images that resonated, but I was just making art for myself.”

“What I’m doing now with each piece is trying to tell the story of America that I witness. I’ve been through many of the same things as any other American who has had to work and survive and keep believing,” he says. “I’ve had bankruptcy, lost houses, lost businesses, sacrificed the good times with friends and family members for the future that may or may not ever give those moments back to me again. I’ve had huge successes and devastating failures. I’ve had a marriage and children and a past that isn’t always happy to recall.” Still, he doesn’t regret the past and recognizes it all made him who he is now. “I’ve had the greatest times of my life chasing my American dream and sometimes it was wonderful and sometimes it was horrific and it is what it is,” Nicolau explains. “Every medium I tried. Every creative project I undertook made it possible for me to arrive where I’m at today. All I want now is to do the work I know I am meant to do and the work I inadvertently and unbeknownst to me was already giving everything for anyway. Hopefully, I never have to start over again...unless that’s what it takes to keep the dream alive.”

Faces CH Familiar Sargent’s offers a classic diner experience By Erin Rook

alking into Sargent’s Café is like stepping into a scene from “That ’70s Show.” Wood paneling, amber glass dividers, and burnt orange pleather booths lend a warm but retro feeling. The walls are speckled with photos of wildlife and western scenes on shiny lacquered wood, including a copy of the “Indian Ten Commandments.” Attentive wait staff bustle about, ensuring nary a coffee cup reaches half-empty as they tend to a consistent crowd of patrons on a recent Tuesday morning. Though the diner is off the beaten path, tucked between El Rodeo and a loan office on Third Street near Wilson Avenue, it has a strong following. Sargent’s was originally opened by the Sargent family in the early 1960s, and is now owned by John Aylward, who took it over about a decade ago. “We have tried to maintain the same oldschool diner feel with simple changes to the menu,” Aylward says. “We still have two employees that have been working at Sargent’s over 20 years.” That longevity has created an environment reminiscent of the fictional “Cheers” bar, where servers not only know regulars’ names and orders, they remember details about their lives. “I was just thinking about you the other day,” a server says to a gentleman across the divider as she comes to take his order. “Good or bad?” he responds playfully. But that friendliness isn’t just reserved for regulars. Moments after I arrive, I’m sipping on cup-one of an endless stream of coffee, perusing a lengthy, and endlessly-customizable menu with a section featuring “Lighter Fare for the Experienced Customer (60 years and older, please).”

In addition to unconventional menu options like The Lava Bear— meatloaf and a fried egg on an English muffin—and liver and onions, Sargent’s also offers a plethora of sides, creating a dining experience akin to ordering from the kitchen of Mom. The most popular items, Aylward says, are the specials. “We run a breakfast and lunch special daily,” he explains. “The regulars don’t want to look at a menu. We

serve a lot of old-school breakfast, bacon and eggs with hash browns and toast. We serve a lot of country-fried steak. Some days it is all about the biscuits and gravy, other days it is the Cougar special or the Lava Bear.” I order French toast with strawberries, a side of hash browns, and scrambled eggs. My food comes out quickly—though the servers manage to fill my coffee cup multiple times while I wait—and is accompanied by butter, syrup, ketchup, and two kinds of Tabasco. I instantly realize that my eyes are bigger than my stomach, as the servers playfully marvel that I can eat such a large breakfast while remaining what they generously describe as slender. As I do my best to make a dent in the ample portions, the oldies station plays the theme song to “Friends,” which seems to reinforce the convivial vibe. A server breezes by, stopping unprompted to lower the window blinds to shield me from the bright morning sun. That we’re-all-family-here approach extends to the café’s signage, which regularly features birthday wishes for celebrities and patrons alike. On this particular day, one side has birthday wishes for Raiders Defensive Coordinator Ken Norton, Jr. The other side reads simply: “Boss told me to change the sign.” “I pretty much stick to older celebrities that our clientele can relate to, I tend to favor musicians and athletes,” Aylward explains. “We also love to put our customers birthdays up on the marquis; everyone should get their ten minutes of fame.” At the end of the day, Sargent’s caters to a crowd that values consistency and community. There’s no quinoa, tempeh, or pork belly on the menu. But there doesn’t need to be. “We don’t strive to serve the latest trend, we aren’t fancy, we are friendly and we are a great value,” Aylward says. And it’s true—the spread too big for me to finish set me back less than $12. “Our girls really try to make sure you get what you want and want you to come back again.” And if the multiple days a week regulars are any indication, the staff is doing a bang-up job.

A Climb Through Time

Local icon Alan Watts talks Smith Rock sport climbing By Kevin Sperl 33

VOLUME 19 ISSUE 40 / October 1, 2015 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

eaching Alan Watts on his cellphone last Friday morning found him about to hike Tumalo Mountain, something he has done 53 times this summer. A native of Madras, Watts is best known for promoting rock climbing at Smith Rock State Park, bringing its almost 1,800 climbing routes to the international stage. “My entire family, especially my dad, climbed, so I grew up climbing mountains,” said Watts, who moved to Bend in 1983. “Living near Smith Rock, I began climbing there at the age of 15 as a way to train for the mountains.” For the next 20 years, Watts engineered climbing routes at the park, specializing in “sport climbing” as a way of minimizing its dangers. “Climbing used to be, and still is, a very adventurous activity with a fair amount of danger and risk,” he explained. “Placing bolts in the rock makes it safer and possible to focus on attempting more difficult routes.” Watts feels that these measures allow climbers to take more chances, noting that falling is always a “good way to get killed.” Watts brings his story to Eagle Crest in Redmond Wednesday night to talk about Smith Rock as a climbing venue and introduce his book Sport Climbing at Smith Rock, which chronicles the history of the sport at the park. People first began climbing at Smith Rock in the 1930s, he explained, and until the ’70s, when Watts first began climbing there, it was a “locals only” destination. “During the ’80s it received a lot of exposure in climbing magazines,” he said. “The venue changed really quickly in 1985 into an international climbing destination.” First and foremost, the number of routes at the park is its draw, but the best climbers in the world would only come if the routes presented them a challenge, which according to Watts, they do. “These are the hardest climbing routes in

the United States,” he noted. “Once it was discovered, the best climbers wanted to visit.” As the routes became popular, Watts’ concern for climber safety led him to introduce sport climbing, and the requisite bolted routes. “Sport climbing was unusual, got a lot of press, and was quite controversial for awhile between the older, more traditional climbers and the new breed of sport climbers,” explained Watts. Attempting to chronicle the climbing routes at Smith Rock has proven to be a challenge for Watts, who penned his first guide in 1992 when there were about 900 routes. And the routes just kept coming, growing to over 1,400 when he sat down to revise the book, with another 400 created before he could finish. “I could never get finished,” he said, laughing. “The book itself is a combination of text and a lot of drawings to describe how

to climb different sections.” For the beginner, Watts suggested starting at a climbing gym before taking on a venue like Smith Rock. “Learning at a gym is a good way to try climbing in a safe environment without a large financial commitment,” noted Watts, adding that some may not find being off of the ground a positive experience. “Climbers might also hire a guide service to take them to Smith.” As the popularity of climbing at the state park grows, Watts works hard to keep climbing a positive experience. “It has been great to see so many people enjoy the climbing, but I never had any idea that anyone would come here,” he said. “Thirty years later, people are still coming to climb the routes I developed.” As a 55-year old, Watts admitted to not climbing as much as he used to, and said he has begun looking elsewhere in Central Oregon to get his activity fix. “Every day in summer I go on a hike or

a run in the mountains and still consider myself an athlete,” he said. “I have my family and trying to stay active and fit takes up all my time.” But climbing will always define him. “For me, climbing became my life and everything I did in climbing continues to follow me around,” he said. Smith Rock’s overwhelming popularity with climbers and people just coming to enjoy a hike brings a sense of satisfaction to Watts. “It is nice to have done something that will live beyond me long after I am gone,” he said. “People enjoy the climbing and it is a beautiful place.” With that comment, Watts’ cell signal began to fade as he set out on his 54th ascent of Tumalo Mountain.

ease does them in. Voles can be so prolific they will leave behind well-worn trails to and fro and are active all year long, so they also leave tunnels under the snow, and they are the preferred food for a foot-long list of raptors and predators.

Matt’s talk was on “Gophers, Moles, and Voles” and how to kill them. He wanted them dead, because he found them obnoxious competitors to making a living as a farmer. The best part of his talk about ways to kill those three pestiferous little beasties (to his way of thinking) was trapping; he did not use, or condone the use of poisons. Before we go any further, please bear with me while I say a little about moles, voles, and gophers. Moles are not rodents, unlike voles and gophers. Moles are insectivores, specialists that eat only invertebrates: worms and insects. The only mole that we rarely find in this part of Oregon is the coast mole (who got that name because they’re found on the coast of BC and Oregon, but also range all the way through Photo by Jim Anderson. our northern counties and into Idaho—go figure common names.) Even with all the real Circle and spends winter with us is—without exception— estate they call home, you’ll be hard-pressed to even find the expert at catching voles. How they do it is one of the one in Central Oregon. great mysteries of nature I shall never solve before I go On the other hand, voles and gophers are rodents, and roout among the stars. dents eat vegetation—in prodigious amounts! Voles can go Time-and-time-again I have watched with binoculars and through population cycles that are extreme.

Set it at right angles to the vole runway. If but they can only be “controlled” by Nature herself; dis-

the voles are prolific, you don’t even need to bait the trap with peanut butter. I usually cover any trap I leave out in the wilds to prevent injuries to raptors and wild predators. For voles, one can set down two pieces of two-by-four about 12 inches long, then place a foot-square piece of one-half inch plywood on the two-by-fours, covering the trap, a rock on the plywood is also a good idea to keep it from wandering away. And when it comes to gophers, well, what person who works the soil doesn’t know how much a gopher can stuff in its fur-lined cheeks and make one’s day miserable, not to forget the huge mounds of soil left behind that dull hay-cutting machinery. But then on the other side of the coin, barn owls, great horned owls, red-tailed hawks, Swainson hawks, ferruginous hawks, and weasels think there’s nothing in the whole wide world better than a gopher repast. To help control gophers in the hayfield or kitchen garden, please stay away from the infernal poisons. Sure they’re easy to use—drop it in the ground and forget it, the gopher’s history—but the risk of secondary poisoning is just too great. Use a manual trap, like the CINCH Trap; it’s cumbersome but if you’re careful, it works very well. There are derivatives of that one, and they also work. Matt covers his traps with a plastic gallon plant bucket, and that’s very good advice. It’s a shame the good old California #44 wooden gopher trap is no longer available, that one was a winner and never failed, and you didn’t need to cover it, it came in its own box. If anyone knows anywhere to purchase them, please let me know: 541-480-3728. We are probably the only inhabitants of this great old world we live in who can have compassion and be considerate of others who share the space. So, with that in mind, please—before you kill an animal—ask yourself, “Is it really necessary for me to kill this fellow inhabitant for me to survive?”

ack in the first week of June, my wife Sue and I went over to the Willamette Valley to take part in a delightful day at the Mother Earth News Fair in Albany (taking our son, Caleb, and his family along with us). Among the hundreds of exhibits and talks given by people who knew what they were doing, people trying to sell anything that would make gardening more fun, and genuine workers of the soil, I attended a talk by Matt Borg, a knowledgeable bean farmer from the Albany area.

BEND’S LOCAL INDEPENDENT OUTDOOR RETAILER

CLIMB HIKE CAMP EXPLORE Bend’s #1 Climbing Shop & Outdoor Retailer!

Central Oregon Land Watch was spawned in 1985 when plans to pipe Whychus Creek for hydropower were introduced. Then, the Sisters' Forest Planning Committee successfully defended the Whychus from piping and the surrounding forest from clearcut. In 30 years time, COLW has been the organization willing to take to the courts in defense of our natural resources. This summer the organization has hosted a series of hikes revisiting the places they have defended. The final hike takes place at Shevlin Park Wednesday, Oct. 7. See the website to register: centraloregonlandwatch.org/30

Deschutes Land Trust Local lore has it that Deschutes Land Trust was born out of the post-work, beer-fueled debates of a handful of conservation nerds back in 1995. They’ve been building partnerships and legacies ever since. In 20 years, the group has worked with landowners to conserve nearly 9,000 acres of prime fish and wildlife habitat in Central Oregon, and their name has become synonymous with the restoration of Whychus Creek. To celebrate, the organization is throwing a party back where it all began, in the backyard of the Deschutes Brewery Public House, and we’re all invited. Friday, Oct. 2 from 5:30 to 8:30 pm.

Oregon Natural Desert Association Oregon Natural Desert Association has been around for over 25 years, working to protect the High Desert. Among their greatest successes was seeing Steens Mountain become a protected Wilderness Area. This Friday, Oct. 2, they celebrate with the Wild & Scenic Film Festival at the Tower Theatre here in Bend, and in Portland with a party at the beautiful, LEED certified, Ecotrust Building. Find details on their website at onda.org.

Riding On Mustangs with Boys Unbranded documents an incredible journey By Jared Rasic

WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / October 1, 2015 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

Unbranded at the Tower Theater, 7 pm, 10/7.

that make the heart race and breath quicken. But these four men love their horses and the horses are protective of their riders, so everyone is in good hands. In 2010, Ben Masters and two friends adopted some 125 mustangs from the Bureau of Land Management and rode 2,000 miles along the Continental Divide. They found that the mustangs outperformed their domesticated quarter horses at almost every turn. This reality, combined with the fact that more than 50,000 wild horses and burros are living in government pens and pastures without much hope of adoption, inspired Masters to prove a point.

Following the screening at the Tower Theatre, a panel will discuss some of the hot button issues this film sheds light on. Gayle Hunt from the Central Oregon Wild Horse Coalition will be moderating, with Dennis Aig (a producer on Unbranded) participating via Skype, Marika Ruppe (from the American Wild Horse Preservation Campaign), Rob Sharp (or someone else to be announced from BLM), and a speaker from the Forest Service all participating in the discussion.

Watching these young men ride these once free horses into the wild is a thematically rich experience, where metaphor is also as literal as the danger they face on the trail. Each one of these men sees something of themselves in their horses, with their wild sides barely being held down by the strictures that society imposes and that ever-present impulse to bolt off into the sunset being held in check by the maturity they ungracefully forget to ignore.

After bringing on director Phillip Baribeau and running a successful Kickstarter campaign, Masters recruited his friends and fellow cowboys Jonny Fitzsimons, Thomas Glover, and Ben Thamer to join him on the 3,000-mile ride across Arizona, Utah, Idaho, Wyoming, and Montana. Their journey not only shows beyond a shadow of a doubt the strength and character of these mustangs, but that there is still a little bit of wildness left in the American West.

Unbranded is a great documentary that doesn’t shy away from anything it’s showing. The men are all flawed but brave, the horses all wild but loyal, and the trail is dangerous but passable. Watching man and horse grow into their futures is never less than exhilarating, while also creating a layered and complicated discussion for horse lovers and conservationists alike. No matter what side of the divide viewers land on, Unbranded is never less than a phenomenal film.

nbranded is a documentary with a lot on its mind. On the surface level, it is an adventure about a group of young cowboys who train some mustangs and then ride them from the Mexican to the Canadian border. While their journey is an intense and fascinating one, the film also wants to shed light on the plight of wild mustangs and how the world has become too small for them to run free for much longer. Finally, the film takes a good hard look at the cowboys, four young recent Texas A&M graduates who just aren’t quite ready for the collared shirts, wives, and children they think the world expects of them.

The opening scene of the film shows one of the cowboys getting horse kicked close to his face while another gets bucked off. It is a dangerous ride with some moments (like the thin Grand Canyon trails and several horse injuries)

Featured Film Events

The film boasts some breathtaking cinematography and a few jaw-droppingly gorgeous Steadicam shots, but there is a section where the men and horses try to traverse a rocky hill that will glue anyone to their seat. It’s a harrowing

section of the film that really puts the adventure in documentary filmmaking.

Wild and Scenic Film Festival

Orangutan Diaries

BendFilm First Friday

The Oregon Natural Desert Association’s eighth annual Wild and Scenic Film Festival has arrived. The festival presents an evening of short films showcasing the natural wonders we can take for granted in our busy lives.

The film details the harrowing plight of the orangutan, while also shedding light on ways of rescuing and bringing the animals back to health at the Borneo Orangutan Survival Foundation Center. Palm oil plantations have been threatening their habitats for years, and now is the time to exact some change. A part of the Green Team Movie Night Series.

BendFilm celebrates the brave voice of independent cinema through films, lectures, and education. Enjoy being among the first to view film clips and slides from the upcoming 2015 festival.

Life of Crime

Black Mass almost makes it By Jared Rasic

39 mean everything to the Irish Mob. John Connolly used Whitey as an informant to further his career but, in doing so, gave Whitey carte blanche to murder, sell drugs, and run South Boston. But it

A film about the relationships between “good” men with power and the crooks they’re supposed to protect us from is sound, but Black Mass’ script never gives us a window into the origins of the loyalty anyone feels for Whitey Bulger. The entire emotional resolution of the film hinges on the loyalty and adulation that John Connolly feels for Whitey, which brings about the biggest misstep of the movie.

never feels like Connolly is doing it to use Bulger, it’s played like he genuinely cares about the man due to something that happened when Connolly was a child. We’re never given any hint as to what that event was, so it makes the amount of lying and criminal behavior Connolly gets involved in unbelievable. Whitey doesn’t seem to have any friends, let alone some kid from Southie who became a fed, so their entire relationship, while not seeming contrived, doesn’t create any drama since we have no idea of the emotional stakes involved. And this almost derails the entire film, as it is basically the narrative thrust of the entire picture. Luckily, the performances of the central duo are strong, with Johnny Depp giving his most focused and controlled work since The Rum Diary. Even though the film somewhat plays as a Whitey Bulger bio-pic, the script still paints him as a cypher, but Depp gives that cypher a soul and underplays the role beautifully. While Joel Edgerton has been solidly putting in good work for years now, his work as John Connolly is a revelation. His work is the opposite of Depp’s in every

As Boston crime movies like The Departed, Mystic River, or The Town have taught us, it’s that loyalty and brotherhood

way, giving the G-Man a swagger from his core all the way to how he blinks his eyes, and it never becomes showy. It is a very calculated performance showing off some of the best technical acting of the year. W. Earl Brown and Jesse Plemons almost steal the film as two of Bulger’s enforcers and with just a bit more screen time, they would have. Dakota Johnson and Julianne Nicholson are both phenomenal as Bulger and Connolly’s respective spouses, but once their orbit from the men disappears, they are dropped from the film entirely. Black Mass also suffers from a complete lack of a climax. Letters on a screen telling us what became of all the real life bad guys does not make for the satisfying resolution of a film. While anyone with passing familiarity of the story of Whitey Bulger knows about his arrest, there could have been an artful way to handle it; instead, the film feels like it runs out of gas before puttering to a stop. The film is well made, handsomely photographed, and nearly impeccably acted, but the lack of tension, clarity, and climax left this viewer feeling like he watched something unworthy of the performances given.

lack Mass tells the true-life story of James “Whitey” Bulger as he transforms from a small-time crook to the crime kingpin of South Boston. It also tells the story of one of Bulger’s friends growing up, John Connolly, and his return to South Boston as a mid-level FBI agent. Their relationship makes up the bulk of the film, while never becoming developed enough to carry any emotional weight.

climbers struggling to face Mount Meru, one of the most challenging mountains in the Himalayan range. The film boasts breathtaking climbing footage along with interviews with some of the most respected climbers on the planet. A must-see for any mountaineer. Sisters Movie House, Tin Pan Theater

THE END OF THE TOUR: This important and beautiful film follows the story of a fiveday interview between David Lipsky of Rolling Stone and David Foster Wallace right after publication of his masterwork Infinite Jest. At turns heart-breaking, profound, and hysterical, The End of the Tour also presents Jesse Eisenberg and Jason Segal at the very top of their game. Not to be missed. Sisters Movie House, Tin Pan Theater

EVEREST 3D: The true story of one of the hairiest attempts to summit Everest in history. For once, the use of 3D (which I think we can all agree now isn’t a fad anymore) actually enhances the film greatly.

the first one has its moments, Adam Sandler isn’t having a great year and this animated sequel will most likely follow that trend. In this one, Dracula has a brand new grandson, who disappointingly isn’t showing any monster tendencies. No matter what, it won’t be worse than Pixels. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

THE INTERN: Robert De Niro grows bored with retirement and becomes the intern of Anne Hathaway, the CEO of an online fashion magazine. Of course, he doesn’t like computers or technology of any kind, which makes perfect sense for him to work for an online magazine because comedy. Old Mill Stadium 16 THE MAN FROM U.N.C.L.E.: Rogue-ish CIA operative Napoleon Solo (Henry Cavill) and dour KGB agent Illya Kuryakin (Armie Hammer) team up to stop a nefarious criminal organization from releasing nuclear weapons into the world. Director Guy Ritchie’s obsessively detailed style should work wonders for a light-hearted spy romp. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX THE MARTIAN: Matt Damon plays Mark Watney, an astronaut stranded on Mars alone, figuring out how to survive until help can (possibly) come for him. Prepare for this to be a smash hit the size of Gravity, but with better science, acting and story. The book is a classic and advanced word says the film reaches those same heights. Old Mill Stadium & IMAX

MAZE RUNNER: THE SCORCH TRIALS: The sequel to the surprisingly good Maze Runner from last year. The surviving maze runners now have to contend with the outside world, a post-apocalyptic, nightmare desert that no one can survive in. Hopefully this one can capture the excellent pacing and intense storyline from the first one, even though we know what the mystery is now. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

NO ESCAPE: This is not, I repeat, this is NOT a remake of the super badass 1994 post-apocalyptic thriller with Ray Liotta and Ernie Hudson. Put your wallets and other monetary carrying devices away. This one is about an American couple in a scary foreign country caught in the middle of a coup where all Americans are being killed. Hopefully, this will ring out a new era of xenophobia and fear to replace our current one. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

SICARIO: Emily Blunt plays an idealistic FBI agent who learns the brutal reality about keeping Mexico and the United States from the drug cartels. Sicario is Spanish for “Assassin” if that tells you anything. Word on the street says this will be the film to beat for Best Picture, Best Actress and Best Actor (Benicio Del Toro) in the 2015 Oscar race. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

STRAIGHT OUTTA COMPTON: From the director of Friday comes the story of N.W.A., told from the point of view of their importance to history. Dr. Dre, Ice Cube, Eazy-E, DJ Yella, and MC Ren came out of the gate swinging and simultaneously gave an entire generation of black youth a voice, while also putting a target on the back of the FBI, LAPD, and just about every white guy with power possible. A powerful biopic. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

THE TRANSPORTER REFUELED: An unbelievably bad reboot of the Transporter franchise sans Jason Statham. Not only the worst film of the series, but easily in the bottom barrel of films from the entire year, boasting not only some of the most sexist, puerile, and wooden dialogue ever written, but it’s also unforgivably boring. Even the martial arts sequences and car chases are staged so poorly that to look on them is painful. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

THE VISIT: In what could hopefully be a return to form for M. Night Shyamalan, The Visit tells the tale of two youngsters going to stay at their grandparents’ house. The twist: the biggest rule is that they are not to leave their room after 9:30 because if they do, terrible, creepy things will occur. Boasting a darkly hilarious trailer, The Visit has this film buff cautiously optimistic. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

A WALK IN THE WOODS: Robert Redford and Nick Nolte play old friends who team up after years apart to hike the Appalachian Trail. Advanced review on the film is fairly negative, but this is a chance to see these two old pros walking around in nature and ruminating on mortality and whatnot, especially after this somewhat lackluster blockbuster season. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX WAR ROOM: The controversial new faithbased movie War Room has arrived in Bend. When Tony and Elizabeth start realizing their rocky marriage is putting their young daughter in the middle of a war zone, they seek help from a wise woman who teaches them the power of prayer. Judging from some current reviews, it’s actually much worse than it sounds. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

ADVICE GODDESS Wed Blanket

—Huh? Nothing says “I want to make mad, passionate love to you” like a referral to a skilled and honest auto mechanic. The guy seems to be having a “flirtationship” with you—which is to say, this stuff he’s doing is foreplay to foreplay that’s unlikely to happen. There seems to be some evolutionary psychology bubbling up here—specifically, a facet of “error management theory.” This is the mouthful of a way that researchers Martie Haselton and David Buss explain how, when we might make an error in judgment, we evolved to make the least costly error. And though women engage in flirtationships, men seem to have evolved to err on the side of not missing a possible mating opportunity. And yes, that’s true even when they aren’t technically free to “mate”—like when a guy has taken (and seems to adhere to) those pesky vows to grow old with some lady, and not just in between sex romps with some other lady. That’s where flirting comes in. Interpersonal communications researcher David Henningsen points out that the essence of flirting is ambiguity, leading the target to “suspect that sexual interest is being expressed” but not allowing them to really be sure. As for a flirt’s goal, predictably, for many in Henningsen’s and others’ research, it’s about “getting some.” But some flirting, called “instrumental” flirting, is about getting something else—like getting a discount, getting some free help, or getting out of a ticket by flashing a lady cop one’s man boobs. As for what may be going on here, Henningsen notes that some flirting is just about having fun or is a way for a person to feel good about themselves. (“She’s all over me like ants on a croissanwich!”) There’s also what Henningsen calls the “exploring” motivation: safely testing what a relationship with somebody new might be like (in case the wife runs off with the census taker).

You can’t seem to get it through her head: “I’m out of his life, and I’d really like to be out of yours.” She’s probably just looking for answers— sadly, to questions like “How pretty are you?” “How big are your boobs?” and “How the heck did you get him to go to the dermatologist?” But the only answer you really need to give her is a definitive no: No calls. No texts. No more contact. Meanwhile, review any signs you may have overlooked that this guy wasn’t the single, available man he made himself out to be, and go into future relationships wanting to find out rather than wanting to believe. This should keep you from having scorned wives hitting you up for lunch dates and from the charming offers that might ensue: “Whaddya say—if I treat you to tiramisu, would you help me dump his body in the ravine?”

VOLUME 19 ISSUE 40 / October 1, 2015 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

I’m very attracted to my co-worker—a self-described “happily married man.” We are “friends,” but he always has a warm hug, an interesting YouTube video, or a poem or short story he’s written to share with me. He has taken me to lunch and has done work for me gratis. If I have car trouble, he connects me to a mechanic and sees I get great work for a great price. Twice he’s told me, “I love you.” The second time, I responded, “I love you, too, and if you weren’t married, I’d take you on!” He then responded, “Previous commitment!” I’m confused as to what’s going on in his head. There has been no sex, and he hasn’t asked for any.

Chances are, this guy is into you but is clinging to fidelity like a shipwrecked rat on driftwood. Maybe try to enjoy this for what it is: free lunch, free work, and referrals to the amazing Carlos at Numero Uno Auto. And try to be grateful for all that he shares with you, like the poetry and short stories that his wife probably (wisely) refuses to read. As for a companion to take you to that dark place with satin sheets, you’ll have to find somebody unmarried and available. If this guy is looking to make his wife cry, it seems he’ll stick to low-grade relationship misdemeanors, like forgetting her birthday or, when they’re in bed, calling her by an old girlfriend’s name. Or by the dog’s.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): A windbreak is a line of stout trees or thick bushes that provides shelter from the wind. I think you need a metaphorical version: someone or something to shield you from a relentless force that has been putting pressure on you; a buffer zone or protected haven where you can take refuge from a stressful barrage that has been hampering your ability to act with clarity and grace. Do you know what you will have to do to get it? Here’s your battle cry: “I need sanctuary! I deserve sanctuary!”

DEEP TISSUE SWEDISH PRENATAL CUPPING

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): The 20th century’s most influential artist may have been Pablo Picasso. He created thousands of paintings, and was still churning them out when he was 91 years old. A journalist asked him which one was his favorite. “The next one,” he said. I suggest you adopt a similar attitude in the coming weeks, Libra. What you did in the past is irrelevant. You should neither depend on nor be weighed down by anything that has come before. For now, all that matters are the accomplishments and adventures that lie ahead of you.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Your fellow Sagittarian Walt Disney accomplished a lot. He was a pioneer in the art of animation and made movies that won numerous Academy Awards. He built theme parks, created an entertainment empire, and amassed fantastic wealth. Why was he so successful? In part because he had high standards, worked hard, and harbored an obsessive devotion to his quirky vision. If you aspire to cultivate any of those qualities, now is a favorable time to raise your mastery to the next level. Disney had one other trait you might consider working on: He liked to play the game of life by his own rules. For example, his favorite breakfast was doughnuts dipped in Scotch whisky. What would be your equivalent? CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): October is Fix the Fundamentals Month. It will be a favorable time to substitute good habits for bad habits. You will attract lucky breaks and practical blessings as you work to transform overwrought compulsions into rigorous passions. You will thrive as you seek to discover the holy yearning that’s hidden at the root of devitalizing addictions. To get started, instigate free-wheeling experiments that will propel you out of your sticky rut and in the direction of a percolating groove.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Have you made your travel plans yet? Have you plotted your escape? I hope you will hightail it to a festive playground where some of your inhibitions will shrink, or else journey to a holy spot where your spiritual yearnings will ripen. What would be even better is if you made a pilgrimage to a place that satisfied both of those agendas— filled up your senses with novel enticements and fed your hunger for transcendent insights. Off you go, Aquarius! Why aren’t you already on your way? If you can’t manage a real getaway in the near future, please at least stage a jailbreak for your imagination.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Pablo Neruda’s Book of Questions consists entirely of 316 questions. It’s one of those rare texts that makes no assertions and draws no conclusions. In this spirit, and in honor of the sphinx-like phase you’re now passing through, I offer you six pertinent riddles: 1. What is the most important thing you have never done? 2. How could you play a joke on your fears? 3. Identify the people in your life who have made you real to yourself. 4. Name a good old thing you would have to give up in order to get a great new thing. 5. What’s the one feeling you want to feel more than any other in the next three years? 6. What inspires you to love?

ARIES (March 21-April 19): The next seven weeks will NOT be a favorable time to fool around with psychic vampires and charismatic jerks. I recommend you avoid the following mistakes, as well: failing to protect the wounded areas of your psyche; demanding perfection from those you care about; and trying to fulfill questionable desires that have led you astray in the past. Now I’ll name some positive actions you’d be wise to consider: hunting for skillful healers

who can relieve your angst and aches; favoring the companionship of people who are empathetic and emotionally intelligent; and getting educated about how to build the kind of intimacy you can thrive on.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You may have seen websites that offer practical tips on how to improve your mastery of life’s little details. They tell you how to de-clutter your home, or how to keep baked goods from going stale, or why you should shop for shoes at night to get the best fit. I recently come across a humorous site that provides the opposite: bad life tips. For instance, it suggests that you make job interviews less stressful by only applying for jobs you don’t want. Put your laptop in cold water to prevent overheating. To save time, brush your teeth while you eat. In the two sets of examples I’ve just given, it’s easy to tell the difference between which tips are trustworthy and which aren’t. But in the coming days, you might find it more challenging to distinguish between the good advice and bad advice you’ll receive. Be very discerning.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): On a windy afternoon last spring I was walking through a quiet neighborhood in Berkeley. In one yard there was a garden plot filled with the young green stems of as-yet unidentifiable plants. Anchored in their midst was a small handwritten sign. Its message seemed to be directed not at passers-by like me but at the sprouts themselves. “Grow faster, you little bastards!” the sign said—as if the blooming things might be bullied into ripening. I hope you’re smart enough not to make similar demands on yourself and those you care about, Gemini. It’s not even necessary. I suspect that everything in your life will just naturally grow with vigor in the coming weeks. CANCER (June 21-July 22): “I am rooted, but I flow,” wrote Virginia Woolf in her novel The Waves. That paradoxical image reminds me of you right now. You are as grounded as a tree and as fluid as a river. Your foundation is deep and strong, even as you are resilient in your ability to adapt to changing circumstances. This is your birthright as a Cancerian! Enjoy and use the blessings it confers. (P.S. If for some strange reason you’re not experiencing an exquisite version of what I’ve described, there must be some obstacle you are mistakenly tolerating. Get rid of it.)

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Should I offer my congratulations? You have corralled a gorgeous mess of problems that are more interesting and provocative than everyone else’s. It’s unclear how long this odd good fortune will last, however. So I suggest you act decisively to take maximum advantage of the opportunities that your dilemmas have cracked open. If anyone can turn the heartache of misplaced energy into practical wisdom, you can. If anyone can harness chaos to drum up new assets, it’s you. Is it possible to be both cunning and conscientious, both strategic and ethical? For you right now, I think it is. VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Let’s say you have walked along the same path or driven down the same road a thousand times. Then, one day, as you repeat your familiar route, a certain object or scene snags your attention for the first time. Maybe it’s a small fountain or a statue of the Buddhist goddess Guanyin or a wall with graffiti that says “Crap happens, but so does magic.” It has always been there. You’ve been subconsciously aware of it. But at this moment, for unknown reasons, it finally arrives in your conscious mind. I believe this is an apt metaphor for your life in the next week. More than once, you will suddenly tune in to facts, situations, or influences that had previously been invisible to you. That’s a good thing! But it might initially bring a jolt.

Westside Bend

NW Riverfront Townhouse

By Kayja Buhmann Some experts locally also anticipate income to grow by as much as five percent over 2016, but is that enough to combat rising interest rates, home prices, health care costs, and the looming student debt many buyers face? Current mortgage rates are nearing four percent, and expected to rise in the fourth quarter of this year. Home buying programs for lower-income families, such as the Oregon Bond Mortgage, may help, as they offer lower than market rate loans for borrowers who qualify. The general consensus given by real estate experts in Central Oregon seems to be this: Buy now, before prices and rates rise any higher, and sell soon, because prices are nearing their plateau.

s we enter the final quarter of 2015, one question is looming for buyers, sellers, and renters alike: What will the next year bring? While Bend is considered by many to be one of the stronger real estate markets nationwide, experts in the field are only cautiously optimistic that the market will continue the rapid-fire growth it has seen over the past three years. The general opinion by real estate analysts is that growth will continue, but more slowly. A rise in home appreciation of five-to-ten percent in 2016 can be expected. It’s no burst bubble, by any means, but may come as a surprise to many potential sellers who were waiting to put their house on the market in hopes of larger home price gains.

here are many paradoxes in cannabis law. The biggest, of course, is the federal government’s policy that cannabis is “dangerous” and “has no medicinal value” and the state’s policy, courtesy of the people, that cannabis may be used as medicine and may be otherwise consumed without substantial harm. Our local paradox, which we discussed last week, is that you cannot purchase cannabis in certain cities and counties, but you can consume cannabis in your home anywhere in Oregon (except, presumably, on federal land). Oregon’s latest cannabis store ban victim is Klamath County. This ban perfectly illustrates the self-defeating nature of local prohibitionism. Rather than buy their cannabis in stores owned by locals, Klamath County residents will now be driving to places like Bend to buy their cannabis, just as Portland residents now drive to Vancouver, Washington.

And since that’s a two-hour drive, those folks will likely be purchasing a meal, or a pint, or some fuel, doing some shopping, and perhaps even staying the night in Bend. Thus it seems that Visit Bend owes the Klamath County Commissioners a nice thank-you letter for all of the income they just put in the Bend economy (at the expense of their own). The next paradox of cannabis law in Oregon is about to become apparent on October 1, when Oregon’s recreational cannabis sales begin. This is another situation that comes to us courtesy of a legislative “fix,” and it’s known as “temporary early sales.” The idea was that the OLCC needs time to get its recreational cannabis business licensing rules in place, but in the meantime people want to buy cannabis since it’s now legal. But since we don’t want people to (continue to) buy on the black market, Oregon is attempting to make use of existing cannabis stores—medical marijuana dis-

pensaries—to sell cannabis to everyone over 21. But only temporarily. Or maybe not. Here’s how it will work: Starting on October 1, you can go to any medical marijuana dispensary electing to sell recreational cannabis and purchase up to a quarter-ounce of bud, seeds, and non-flowering plants. But you cannot purchase any other type of cannabis product, including edibles, because that would be just too dangerous right now. The strangest part of all this is the tax. Between October 1, 2015 and January 4, 2016, there will be no tax on recreational cannabis sales. Starting January 5, your recreational cannabis will come with a 25 percent sales tax, creating a huge overnight jump in price. So, stock up, I guess. Incidentally, this 25 percent sales tax will be by far the largest sales tax in Oregon. How strange is that for a state with no general sales tax? Even stranger? The tax rate at licensed recreational stores will be 17 percent, or up to 20 percent if the local jurisdiction adds its own tax. And if you think Bend won’t add that tax, I have some great real estate opportunities I’d like to share with you. Sometime in 2016, the OLCC will start issuing licenses for recreational cannabis stores. This will then give us three types of cannabis stores in Oregon: medical-only, medical-and-recreational, and recreational-only. Thankfully, the stores will be required to display signs saying what they sell. But, for some unknown reason, there will be no permanent co-licensing of medical and recreational cannabis businesses in Oregon (unlike in Colorado). So when the early sales program ends on December 31, 2016, businesses will have to choose one revenue stream or the other. By then maybe we will all be so stoned that some of this will seem to make sense.
