“We want bread, but we want roses, too.”

Women’s Issue

While we were interviewing and photographing the women who make up the Source Weekly’s 2018 Women of the Year, a bouquet of two dozen multi-colored roses sat in the corner. During the first photo shoot, the roses seemed to call out, “include us.” It was provenance, it seemed, because one of the most famous successful labor strikes—led largely by women—also has roses attached to it. In the early 1900s, the activist Rose Schneiderman uttered the line, “The worker must have bread, but she must have roses, too,” in a speech. Textile workers initiating a strike in Lawrence, Mass., in 1912 picked up on the phrase, using it as a battle cry in their quest to end unfair pay cuts. That two-month strike was noteworthy in that it brought about an increase in pay for the workers—but also because it brought together an intersectional group of people, largely female workers and mothers, who were also culturally disparate; of English, Irish, German, French-Canadian, Italian, Slavic, Hungarian, Portuguese and Syrian descent. In a time when “intersectionality” is a buzzword, when women continue to earn markedly less than men, when the U.S. president has been repeatedly accused of sexual harassment and misconduct, when #TimesUp and #MeToo have become rallying cries, the roses in the corner called us to include them, in solidarity to the women who have come before. More than 100 years after the Bread and Roses strike, we too want bread, but we want roses, too.

Now onto the contents of this issue…

It’s been said that 2018 is the Year of the Woman—and whether you agree, in that regard, we couldn’t just choose one woman of the year. Instead of choosing one woman, as we have in past years, we chose eight women who we believe embody the spirit of activism, hard work and humble servitude we believe is so important in these times. We thank each and every one of them for their service and participation in this issue. Read about the Source Women of the Year beginning on page 8, brought to you in their own words. On page 7, read about women’s increased From the “Bread and participation in political life. Roses” strike, 1912. On page 13, find out about some opportunities to get involved in the upcoming Bend Women’s March, Women’s History Month and other events ahead. One page 45, check out Wild Women of the Water, highlighting a group of local women’s efforts to break into a traditionally male sport. And check out page 33 for a Spotlight on a local woman looking to change our conversations to allow for more understanding in a vitriolic world. Thanks for reading! —Nicole Vulcan, Editor

ow many barbecues does the average Bend household host each year? Maybe three or four? And how about a birthday party, or another milestone, like an anniversary? One or two, perhaps? Seems reasonable that you might mark that many special events in a year’s time. Now imagine you want to hold those events in your condo building. Problem is, your building only allows you and all the rest of the condo residents to have just three of those type of gatherings per year, combined. If it feels unjust, that’s exactly how some local business owners are feeling right now. No fewer than two separate tenants at the Century Center want the right to continue holding occasional outdoor events outside their businesses, which currently require the approval of a Temporary Change of Occupancy permit. In 2017, all the tenants within the Century Center held seven special events. With that, those businesses already had more than double the number of events that would be allowed per location, under a proposed change to how the city handles TCOs. As outlined in Feb. 15’s “Could TCOs Get KOed?,” city staff has recommended allowing only three temporary events per year, per location—a number chosen because that’s what Portland does. Portland, for one, has far more options for both indoor and outdoor performance space, but that’s not exactly the point. In a town as relatively small as Bend, it seems clear this is a proposal intended to target just one location, and to please a vocal, persistent group of neighbors. Our recent story was a follow-up to August 2017’s “Bringin’ Down the Noise,” profiling the perspective of neighbors concerned about excessive noise, as well as the perspectives of the people throwing concerts at Century Center. We mentioned how the City of Bend’s mediation team found no substantiation to the noise complaints posed by a few residents of the River West neighborhood. During a Jan. 3 presentation to the Bend City Council, city staff admitted that of the complaints about noise made against the Century Center in 2017, 50 percent of them came from the same two people. The Century Center—via Volcanic Theatre Pub—was issued just one noise citation in 2017, one in 2016 for a Bend Radio Group show, and one in 2015 for a Good Life Brewing event. With each of those citations being issued to separate businesses within the same “location,” it leaves

us wondering, why the sudden onset of this proposal? While it’s certainly not pleasant to live in a condo next to someone who’s constantly holding parties, it is reasonable to expect that your neighbors are going to throw the occasional shin-dig. Heck, that shindig might even be adding some culture and life to the neighborhood, which can be a good thing—in moderation, of course. Likewise, the occasional concert or special event at the Century Center is not going to harm the character of the River West neighborhood, and can even add to it. Because the site’s owner does not want to turn it into a permanent venue, there’s no threat that the site will become Lollapalooza every night. Under the current rules, the building official tasked with approving TCO permits for the Century Center—or any other location— can simply use their best judgement in determining whether more than seven special events (the number held at Century Center last year) is getting excessive, instead of slapping an arbitrary number on each location. In the case of the Century Center, the fact that multiple businesses could ostensibly be limited not only by an arbitrary number, but also by the fact that they have neighbors who might want to use the same space, is absurd. While we maintain that neighbors close to the Century Center have been overly vocal, we give them kudos for making this suggestion, via the Bend Neighborhood Coalition website: “If the Council prefers a higher limit, we suggest two per business and five per property.” While still an arbitrary number, it signals that they, too, can see the limits set upon a single “location” might be unfair—especially when, according to the Century Center website, 13 businesses occupy the same location. We believe the current system of applying for a Temporary Change in Occupancy permit (developed and approved just two years ago) and asking a real live human to decide whether that TCO should be granted is a system that works, and works without some random magic number attached. The Bend City Council will hear from the public about this proposed change at its meeting Feb. 21. With any luck, the Council will see this proposed change as the colossal waste of time that it is. If you’re reading this either before or after that date, be sure to voice your opinion on the matter at either the meeting itself, or by sending the council an email afterward. SW

OPINION Letters

THE TESTICLE TESTIMONIES, BY DR. S. OLIVER BOWMAN

SCHOOL SHOOTINGS I’m deeply saddened by the deaths of 17 students and teachers in another act of violence yesterday. I’m even more saddened that so many people will simply continue to go on with their lives as if nothing happened. Just because you didn’t know them personally doesn’t mean it doesn’t affect you. It affects me deeply. I’ve been writing songs for victims of violence for nearly four years now. But it saddens me that they’ve largely fallen on deaf ears. I’m often asked “why do you write songs for victims of violence? Or told “Your songs are too sad.” Maybe we need to stop pushing sadness away. Maybe if we all embraced and accepted the sadness it would wake us from this nightmare that we continue to live. Every one of those songs I wrote because I was deeply overcome with grief for the victims of violence. I had no choice but to write them. What do you feel? “Don’t give up I know you can see All the world and the mess that we’re making Can’t give up And hope God will intercede Come on back Imagine that we could get it together Stand up for what we need to be ‘Cause crime won’t save or feed a hungry child Can’t lay down and wait for a miracle to change things So lift up your eyes Lift up your heart

Balls, nuts, family jewels, cojones, how many other names are there for the male anatomy responsible for reproduction? Raise your hand if you’ve ever been told to “grow a pair,” heard someone say “she’s got a pair” (balls not boobs), or known someone like Caitlyn Jenner who wished they weren’t there? There are good men, and there are bad men, just as there are good and bad women. Bad men have been in the press a lot lately for getting caught, and being challenged for their actions and attitudes. The object of this commentary is to defend the good ones and hopefully add to their ranks. What is the definition of a “good” man? That question has to be answered by each individual, depending on who their role models or mentors are, what they are being taught or have been taught by their parents and peers. We have come a long way in the last few decades regarding social issues in our society, and hopefully progress will continue if we promote equality and fairness in all aspects of our lives; Men and Women both are responsible. —Terry Trent (Doc Bowman is a character created by Terry Trent)

IN RESPONSE TO: ROCKIN’ OUT WITH MY POCKETS OUT 2/8 Jared, I totally understand your single lifestyle dilemma, as I was once like you. Divorced, then engaged twice without another marriage. After being single for 13 years, I vowed never to get involved in a long-term relationship again because a perfect match was setting the bar too high. I would rate any new relationship as a percentage of what I could tolerate. I never thought anything above 75 percent on the compatibility chart was possible. I also realized that a long-term relationship cannot, must not, be one resigned to unnecessary red flags or regrettable concessions. Then it happened. At a singles golf event, I fell “in-like” with my golf-cart partner. We talked, we dated, we fell in love and we married. That was 21 years ago. It was serendipitous. We’re still on our honeymoon. True love is about perfect timing. —Joe Kosanovic

LET’S WORK FOR A SMART APPROACH TO GUN VIOLENCE My name is Elizabeth Bassett and I would like to see a smart approach gun control. There is no reason that the common citizen should be able to own assault style weapons. I witnessed a mass shooting 11 years ago at the Ward Parkway Mall in Kansas City, Missouri. I was 17 years old and I was working in the mall at Garry Gribble’s Running Sports at the time of the shooting. At that time, I felt the same fear, sadness and trauma that the victims, witnesses and families feel across the country feel today. There must be a ripple effect of frustration

and change as the circles of affected people continue to expand from each series of murders. I believe that smart gun restrictions and licensing requirements need to happen now. We will need to take a multi-faceted approach to this issue and dedicate money and energy to mental health issues, but guns are part of the problem. Gun restrictions need to be part of the solution. I praise the Oregon House of Representatives for passing House Bill 4145 which closes the “boyfriend loophole.” A provision and prohibits domestic abusers and stalkers from gun ownership even if they are not married to, have children with or live with their victims. I am hopeful that the Oregon Senate will approve the bill and that Gov. Brown will sign it into law. I plan to have kids and I am scared that my unborn children will witness something similar to the Ward Parkway Mall shooting. There is every likelihood that this will happen in our Central Oregon schools, workplaces, churches, concerts and shopping areas. For the sake of our kids and community, let’s focus on smart solutions for Central Oregon. Let’s work from the ground up. With Grief, —Elizabeth Bassett

Threats of Violence at Bend Schools

Bend Police ups its presence, attendance down By Chris Miller Bend Senior High School has joined the growing list of Bend-La Pine schools recently put on alert due to threats of possible violence. On Monday, BLP Schools sent Lava Bear parents a letter, alerting them to increased police presence in response to a conversation with a student who allegedly overheard two other students talking about a possible attack of violence at the school. Police say the students who allegedly made the threats were not identified and no viable leads were found. According to Lt. Clint Burleigh of Bend Police, police are still following leads and talking to students. He said attendance was down a bit Tuesday. This follows several other alleged threats at Bend schools within one week. On Feb. 14, the Deschutes County Sheriff’s office says a male student at High Desert Middle School activated a fire alarm, causing students to be evacuated. DSCO interviewed a number of students and determined the male student acted alone. The student has been disciplined by school administration and temporarily removed from school. The DCSO cited him with one count of Disorderly Conduct I. About 20 minutes later, DCSO responded to another issue at High Desert, involving a student who cops say was threatening other students and said he had a firearm. Authorities searched school grounds and determined the student didn’t have a gun in his possession. School administrators disciplined the student and removed him from the school. The DCSO cited him with Disorderly Conduct I and Harassment. Also on Feb. 14—the same day tragedy unfolded in Florida, where 17 people were killed when a former student opened fire—district officials sent families from Summit High School a letter that reported bathroom vandalism which contained a possible threat toward the school. The following day, the school sent out another letter to parents. According to KTZV’s website, the letter read, “Law enforcement has deemed the threat not viable, as previously stated. That said, we will continue to look into leads and have increased police presence at school as we head into the weekend.” Burleigh said his office will always investigate threats as serious. “If we don’t do anything and something happens [then people say] why didn’t you do anything about it,” Burleigh told the Source. “The right thing to do is make our

kids safe,” Burleigh said. “We’re also parents, too. I would rather overreact than underreact.” Burleigh said in light of the recent activity in Bend and around the country, gun control and mental health issues have been hot news items. He said kids who are experiencing mental health issues should remember about the First Step app and the Safe Oregon website.

Bridge Ban Still Alive

Oregon House passes bill onto joint committee for review By Chris Miller A contentious bill that would effectively ban a bridge over the portion of the Deschutes River that holds a State Scenic Waterway designation has passed its first test in the Oregon Legislature. The bill is now in the hands of the Joint Ways and Means Committee for a financial impact evaluation. The House Agriculture and Natural Resources Committee, chaired by Brian Clem, D-Salem, passed the bill 8-1, adopting an amendment that stripped the bill of language that could have broadened the measure to include future projects on other rivers. Another amended version of the bill that would have created a task force on recreation along the Deschutes Scenic Waterway was proposed, but not voted on. The bill could die in committee or be advanced to the House floor. In this short session, the Legislature must adjourn by March 11.

New Principal for Summit High Alice De Wittie will retire at the end of the school year By Nicole Vulcan

Summit High School will officially have a new principal starting July 1. Superintendent of Bend-La Pine Schools, Shay Mikalson, announced Wednesday that Michael McDonald, currently assistant principal at Summit, will take on the new role. Summit’s current principal, Alice De Wittie, announced in October that she would be leaving the district at the end of the current school year. According to media reports, at least one parent complained to the district after De Wittie wrote an email including references to structuring our public education system around God’s “basic design for how people and systems work in relationship,” among other references to a religious mission within the public education system. Summit has had three principals since 2001, with McDonald being the fourth. McDonald has been involved in education in Oregon for more than 25 years, and has served as assistant principal at Summit since 2004.  SW

Is it the “Year of The Woman” Again? A record number of women are running for public office By Chris Miller

VOLUME 22  ISSUE 08  /  February 22, 2018  /  THE SOURCE WEEKLY

M

aybe it’s being sick of misogyny. Maybe it’s putting on a magenta hat and marching. Maybe, just maybe, it’s the rhetoric spewed by our current Commander in Chief. Whatever it is, a record number of women are running for public office this year. According to the Center for American Women and Politics at Rutgers University, the number of Democratic women likely challenging incumbents in the U.S. House of Representatives is up nearly 350 percent from 2016. There are at least 79 women exploring runs for governor in 2018, including incumbent Gov. Kate Brown in Oregon. Of the 45 open U.S. House seats, 43 women are running. “This administration has consistently demonstrated a lack of respect for women,” said Jamie McLeod-Skinner, who’s running in the Democratic primary in hopes of unseating Rep. Greg Walden. “Rather than accept this, women are stepping up to demonstrate a new model of leadership. Our country has a long tradition of strong women. It’s time for our leadership to reflect that strength.” “I believe that women have become empowered to run for office and to stand up to the unacceptable attacks on the well-being of hardworking Americans and our communities,” said Dr. Jenni Neahring, who’s also running in the Democratic primary against McLeod-Skinner. “The past year has been marked by division and fear, and I could no longer stay on the sidelines as the Republican Congress tried to rip health care from our most vulnerable friends and neighbors, while stacking the deck to benefit corporations and the wealthiest Americans.” In Oregon, there are eight Democrats looking to unseat Walden for Oregon’s 2nd Congressional District, which includes Bend. Neahring, a Bend doctor who works in Salem, and McLeod-Skinner, who’s based part-time in Terrebonne, are two of the many women running this year. “I am running to represent Oregon’s 2nd Congressional District because I have seen first-hand the consequences of bad federal policy on everyday Oregonians,” Neahring said. “Walden is no longer a moderate Republican,” McLeod-Skinner said. “He is shaping and promoting an extremist agenda that favors corporate interests and his own political gain in Washington, D.C., rather than helping the people of our district.” In the past decade, four women have run—either in the primary or the

Bend’s House District 54 has seen two women run in the past 10 years, versus five men, with Democrat Judy Stiegler emerging successful in 2010. This year, Cheri Helt announced her bid for House 54 in January, but as yet is not on the Secretary of State’s page as a confirmed candidate. There is one man—Bend City Councilor Nathan Boddie, a Democrat, registered to run for House 54. This year, candidate Eileen Kiley, a Democrat, represents the first woman to run for House District 53 in the past decade. Bend’s City Council has two women and four men; the Bend-La Pine school board has four women and three men and the Bend Park and Recreation District’s board has two women and three men. But not all women who vote, vote Democratic. According to a CNN exit poll, white women helped Trump get to the Oval Office, voting for him 52 to 43 percent. Among white women without a college education, the gap was even wider, with 61 percent voting for Trump, and 34 percent voting for Hillary Clinton. Just winning the right for women to vote was a long road. The Woman’s Suffrage Movement started in 1848, when a

women’s rights convention was held in Seneca Falls, N.Y. Although the meeting was not the first in support of women’s rights, suffragists later viewed it as the meeting that launched the movement. The actual right to vote didn’t come until 72 years later with the passage of the 19th Amendment, ratified on Aug. 18, 1920. The history of women in politics started in 1866, when Elizabeth Cady Stanton was the first woman to run for the U.S. House, running as an independent from New York. She received 24 of the 12,000 votes cast. Victoria Woodhull was the first woman to run for president in 1872 on the Equal Rights Party ticket. In 1887, Susanna Salter was the first woman to be elected mayor, in Argonia, Kan. Democrat Laura Eisenhuth was the first woman elected to statewide executive office as superintendent of public instruction in North Dakota. Martha Hughes Cannon was the first woman state senator in 1896, and Jeannette Rankin, a Republican from Montana, was the first woman ever elected to Congress. Even if McLeod-Skinner or Neahring manages to unseat Walden and Gov. Brown keeps the governorship, women

have a long road to travel to get on even ground in American politics. Women hold less than 20 percent of seats in Congress, just 25 percent in state legislatures and only six of the 50 governorships. The vast majority of first-time candidates challenging incumbents— like Walden—lose because of name recognition and cash flow, something the Democratic fundraising platform ActBlue is trying to change. In January, donations to ActBlue have raised over $45 million to defeat Republicans, up from $33 million in 2016 and just under $8 million in 2014. Walden has held his seat since 1999. He’s currently the Committee on Energy and Commerce chair and was the chair on the Subcommittee on Communication and Technology. It’s hard to say whether the anger some women feel toward Trump will be enough to carry women candidates to victory, especially with the economy looking up and unemployment down. According to CAWP, 1992 was the last time so many women ran for office, thought to be buoyed by the Senate’s Judiciary Committee’s treatment of Anita Hill when she testified about being harassed by Clarence Thomas. The backlash saw 29 women running for Senate seats—11 won their primaries—and 222 filed for House seats, with 106 winning those primaries. The result was 24 women winning election to the House for the first time, and three elected to the Senate. Will 2018 eclipse these numbers? We’ll find out in November.  SW

In Her Own Words The Source’s Women of the Year share their thoughts on whether we should have a “Year of the Woman,” women they want to emulate and things they wish you knew about their work

Wendy Ayala

IMMIGRANT RIGHTS ADVOCATE, DACA RECIPIENT

“I was born in Mexico City, and then we moved to a small H town in Chiapas for about five years and then we moved here. Wendy Ayala I’ve gotten involved a lot with community service, within the immigration aspect of it, since I was in 7th grade. The first time I ever did any kind of talk was at a COCC auditorium, and it was just kind of asking questions of how this education system was working for me—and that included the ELL program and certain things that I’ve encountered here and there. And so that was the first time I ever got exposed to the idea of… that I was a lot different. I’m the youngest out of five, and so we all… the last two are DACA recipients, and everybody else pretty much didn’t have a status. I graduated high school and was able to apply for a job and do this and do that, which was why I went to Seattle for a year to just explore… and I never really realized that my siblings didn’t. It’s very interesting, which is a big reason why I’ve been just really active—I didn’t realize how much it could do for me just to talk about me, essentially, in my life, and how to represent DACA recipients in the United States up in the capital. And for me it was quite a thing.” ON A WOMAN SHE’D LIKE TO EMULATE “Definitely my mom. And I say this because she’s always been a pretty active woman in the community, she actually was one of the first people who went in 2012—they did a bus touring from here all the way to Idaho and Washington. It was just, almost like they did rallies, they took, like, a whole week and would go to these rallies and a lot of it was an immigrant advocacy thing.” ON WHAT SOCIAL JUSTICE MEANS TO HER “It’s being able to have the pursuit of happiness, being able to have the freedom of deciding what to do and what not to do.”

Stacey Witte

DIRECTOR OF HOMELESS OUTREACH, FIRST UNITED METHODIST CHURCH

“I had run a program in Washington state, I was the director of case management and housing for a nonprofit there that worked with men that were experiencing homelessness. And it was kind of a right fit for me here; I stumbled upon a program that two women had started at Bend Methodist Church. And at that time, it was kind of a very small breakfast program for men women and families that were experiencing homelessness. They were at a point where they wanted to grow the program, but they didn’t really have the expertise in working with the homeless and supportive services. And the church was open and willing and welcoming in having a program like that, especially being a downtown church, and so they brought me on board a little over a year ago. And what kind of started as a small pancake breakfast has now welcomed 130 to 170 men, women and families just one day a week, on Wednesdays. That’s a huge barrier, if you don’t have an address, that you can receive any kind of correspondence, whether it’s from family or hospitals, whether you need to be in contact with any kind of parole officers, probation, even things like food assistance, Social Security, disability.

We’ve grown a huge program and I think… a lot of that I’ve brought a lot of experience into this. I’ve been doing it 11 years, and our program is based on relationship, and it’s a low barrier program and that means if you are under the influence of drugs and alcohol, or if you have a dog, you may come into the program and it’s all behavior-based. And it’s all about knowing people and having that trust, that relationship and having that conversation. ON WHY SHE DOES WHAT SHE DOES “I work full time, but it’s not a full time paid, position. It’s a 20-hour-a-week position, but you know when you’re doing this kind of work it’s a passion, and you don’t… you know, pick up the phone and say I’m sorry that you’re feeling suicidal, give me a call Monday. You do this because you’re passionate. I think that a lot of people talk about wanting to help other people. For me, it’s the relationship that people that are experiencing homelessness are really not different than any of us.” ON WHAT SHE WISHES PEOPLE KNEW ABOUT HER WORK “What I’d love people to know is, I’ve not been homeless myself, but I’ve partnered and journeyed with these folks, and I can’t imagine what it’s like to do what they do each day, and you cannot be a lazy person and do this, and there are a lot of barriers that we don’t always consider, and so it’s easy to say, why don’t they just get a job, and there are so many barriers, and how do we address that and help people lift those barriers rather than continually keep putting more barriers in front of them.” ON WHAT SOCIAL JUSTICE MEANS TO HER “Things that are messy are very uncomfortable for people, and I think social justice is really looking at the person and really being able to sit there and really being able to walk with them. Sometimes social justice is as simple as giving a hug or a handshake, or sitting with someone and just listening. I don’t want to isolate the need of a women’s shelter, because there are just as many men that need a safe place, but I think that is something that I would just love to get across to city and county… our city is growing so fast that our infrastructure needs to catch up. And the idea that Bend is a tourist town or a resort town, and we don’t have to address that we do have a population that is experiencing homelessness… we need to address it. And now’s the time to do it before it’s too big, and it’s out of control.”

CASE MANAGER, J BAR J YOUTH SERVICES

9 H Lily Bernabe

VOLUME 22  ISSUE 08  /  February 22, 2018  /  THE SOURCE WEEKLY

“I currently work as a case manager for J Bar J Youth Services, and work with victims of crime of all ages throughout Eastern Oregon. Case management includes creating service plans that meet the immediate and long-term needs of survivors and their families. I am also a co-facilitator of the Central Oregon Neighbor Love Alliance, a group of 10 faith communities learning to walk in practical neighbor love through immigrant solidarity. As a larger community of local Dreamers, faith groups, justice organizations, and Latino and Anglo community members, we are working to create an Immigrant Solidarity Network to meet the current needs of our neighbors. Growing up in an immediate family that immigrated from Central and South America, and Southern Europe, our home life culture was mostly different than what I experienced within my neighborhoods. In college, I focused my area of study to understanding the social cost of globalization, particularly in promoting drug trafficking, child soldiering and human trafficking throughout Latin America.” ON WHY SHE DOES WHAT SHE DOES “I am hands down motivated by the goodness of people. Despite the craziness of the news and the heartaches of injustice, I have seen people from corners of the globe live with extreme resiliency, hope, kindness, compassion and impact.” ON THE BIGGEST ISSUES FACING AMERICANS RIGHT NOW “I’m going to do what I think would be most helpful: focus on what we can do in the face of many issues. I believe choosing to speak and embody unity and solidarity over division and hatred is single-handedly the most important thing we can do right now. There is so much rhetoric and speech circulating daily causing fear, exclusion and isolation. There is used language and proposed policy that is advancing power over dignity. I try to put my focus in what needs to be done for current and future generations to thrive—all people, of all colors and all walks of life.” ON A WOMAN IN HISTORY SHE’D LIKE TO EMULATE “I am grateful to come from a long lineage of bold women. Both my Costa Rican and Sicilian grandmothers gave me this crazy passion, wisdom and hope to live life fully, to be grateful amidst the trials, and to always create space to share with and be impacted by others. My sister is a huge inspiration to me and my best friend.” ON WHAT SOCIAL JUSTICE LOOKS LIKE “I believe social justice is anything that contributes to the restoration or wholeF ness of relationship—anyPaulina Machi thing that gives dignity back to people and brings connection to community flourishing. It can be a conversation on a street corner or the women’s march in town that moved 3,000 people. It is not just action. Action void of relationship is charity, not solidarity. Social justice ought to stir a movement of solidarity.” SHOULD 2018 BE THE YEAR OF THE WOMAN? “Wellllll I believe that every year is the year of the woman, hah. That being said, to 2018, I say ladies, “RISE UP!”

IMMIGRANT RIGHTS ADVOCATE; DACA RECIPIENT

I am about to turn 22. I was born in Mexico—Guadalajara, Jalisco. I came to the U.S. at the age of 5—at least, that’s what they tell me. I have been living here since then. All my schooling was done in the U.S., so, I am currently a medical interpreter. I am trying to become a court interpreter, although that is a little harder. Throughout school I never had any race issue or racist comments, thank goodness. Then when I turned 16, they announced the DACA program, signed by Obama. It was probably one of the best things that has happened to me and almost a million people. It really changed my life because, before I didn’t really have an opportunity. Without it I didn’t really have any opportunity that I have now. Like going to school, paying in-state tuition, that helps a lot. Also, drivers license, Social Security number, which allows me to work. It makes me sad to think what I would do without it or if Trump gets his way and leaves us without our protection or sends me down to a country that I don’t remember.” ON WHAT SHE WISHES PEOPLE KNEW “I wish people would know how hard it is to be in a country where it feels like you are not wanted. We are all human, we are all alike in a way. Different skin color but I really don’t think that matters. I would really like people to know just because you are a different color, race or speak differently, look weird or whatever, they shouldn’t treat you a different way or call you things like: ‘illegal, alien…’ You know, all those nasty words that they use to talk about us.” ON A WOMAN IN HISTORY SHE’D LIKE TO EMULATE “(It would) probably be Harriet Tubman. I think it would be her. I think the things she did were fabulous things. Rosa Parks would be another. Fight for your rights, fight for who you are.” ON HER GO-TOS FOR SELF-CARE “I like to go for runs. I live out in Deschutes River Woods and it is amazing. I like to volunteer. I volunteer as a medical interpreter at Volunteers in Medicine. I have been doing that for several years. I tried to stop doing it, but I can’t, I just love it. I love reading. Knowledge is power. I also like to hang out with my friends—teenager stuff, ya know—going to the movies. I just like to be out there doing stuff, going to hikes, rock climbing.” ON HER HOPES FOR DACA “For us to be accepted into this country as Americans. We have been here our whole lives. We didn’t have a choice to come to this country. Most of us, for me, I love this country, I don’t know any other country. Where I am from? This is where I am from.”

VOLUNTEER COORDINATOR, CITY OF BEND COMMUNITY BUILDER; MINISTER OF WIZARDRY AND FUCKERY

“The city pretty much has a lot of departments where we are building infrastructure, storm water and streets, buildings. We have all of that. My focus is really building a social capital—how do we get people engaged in what we are doing and ambassadors of our own city where we have community buy in and engagement, not just staff, but other people who live here and really want to make a difference. I have the warmest, fuzziest job at the city. Nobody wants to yell at me.” ON A WOMAN IN HISTORY SHE’D LIKE TO EMULATE “I mean, if we could just make, Ruth (Bader) Ginsberg immortal, that would be awesome. I love Katharine Hepburn—just bold and brazen, wearing slacks and doing her own thing in an era where women would know their place and were portrayed as ladies. And she certainly was, but I loved her sense of personality. I love that she had a doormat at her house that said, “Go away.” This lovely, engaging woman who was so friendly and knew how to draw parameters and boundaries around her personal life and space. I always thought that was pretty outstanding.” ON HER GO-TOS FOR SELF-CARE “Burning Man. I go every year. I run a camp.” ON WHETHER 2018 SHOULD BE THE YEAR OF THE WOMAN “Every year is the year of the woman. We are always making advances, we have to move the ball. That we are in this era and we are having “Me, Too” movements, it’s great, but the flip side is, it’s this era and we are having “Me, Too” movements… like, really? My thought is every year is our year, every year is our opportunity to advance. I think as women we need to do a lot more to lift each other up. We judge ourselves more harshly, I am guilty of it, too, I will look in the mirror, “Oh, my god. When did I get old?” Then the other side, why am I worrying about getting old? Why am I worrying about laugh lines around my eyes? I have laugh lines around my eyes because I laugh a lot. There is something to being said when you are American women in this day and age, where we are among the luckiest women who have ever lived in the history of the world. There is something to be said about that, but we still have a long way to go. We need to build each other up.”

Liliana Cabrera

COMMUNITY EDUCATION AND OUTREACH COORDINATOR, PLANNED PARENTHOOD OF THE COLUMBIA-WILLAMETTE

“I was a teen mom, and Planned Parenthood was the place that I went to when I took my pregnancy test. It was just a warm, welcoming environment. I didn’t feel any pressure about any decision that I was needing to make. I was given information and supported. I chose to continue with my pregnancy, and knowing how my experience of being a teen parent and the way that I was treated and talked to, stereotyped, made me really passionate about coming back and doing the work—because the stigma and all of the things in society that are really negatively those are the things I didn’t feel from Planned Parenthood. And so when I started working for PP one of the programs that they had was teen success and it was

for pregnant and parenting teen moms to encourage them to continue with high school and to pursue higher education.” ON WHAT SHE WISHES PEOPLE KNEW ABOUT HER WORK “I think the biggest thing, the misperception out there is we only work with specific groups and young women and teens. And we—as far as myself—my mission is to get the word out to each individual about the agency that they have, and empower them to be able to make the decisions that are going to be meaningful in their own lives. In regard to their sexuality, their sexual health, their reproductive lives, their families and on that letting parents know that we are their ally; we are there to support them. These conversations are difficult and I think that a lot of times there is a concern that their youth are going to be doing things behind their back, H but in actuality what we do in our Liliana Cabrera education is to encourage them to seek out the adults that they can trust.” ON THE BIGGEST ISSUES FACING AMERICANS RIGHT NOW “When we have conversations about equity, about immigration, migration—all of those different things—if we were able to look at each other with compassion and understanding… I think the divisiveness that’s occurring right now is a huge issue, because people want to have more of a last word and want to burn each other rather than building bridges and trying to find out what’s going to be mutually beneficial for everyone.”

“I grew up, part time, in poverty, so when my mom left my dad after raising my brother and I, she didn’t have a skill set that could lift her out of poverty at that time, and really, really struggled and had an unintended, unplanned pregnancy during that time. And I think, had she had greater access to birth control and education in that arena, her life could have been different and our lives could have been different—and that just really drove the idea that I wanted to be part of an organization that creates access, education, opportunities and choice for women as a means of lifting them out of poverty.” ON THE BIGGEST ISSUES FACING AMERICANS RIGHT NOW “I think I would just say two things: Time’s up, and if any, if we’re unhappy as Bendites, as Oregonians, as Americans, for what’s happening in this country, we have to vote. You have to get out to vote to make a change.” ON WHAT SHE WISHES PEOPLE KNEW ABOUT HER WORK “I’m always excited to share all the services that we offer that are not abortion care. I think a lot of people think about that small service that we offer, but here in Bend, in fact, we offer prenatal services at the health center. The first visit—which is an incredibly critical visit to set up the success of a pregnancy. We offer vasectomies—and a lot of people are surprised and shocked to hear that—by a top urologist here in town. We have recently launched into telehealth and we are hopeful that this will be a door to help us bring education and access into our rural communities here in Central Oregon.” ON A WOMAN IN HISTORY SHE’D LIKE TO EMULATE “First is always my mom, because she taught me kindness. She died when I was 16— always hard for me—and then the other is probably Rosa Parks, because she looked for the right opportunity. She was a trained activist. She didn’t sit that day on that bus on accident, and I think she reminds me to look for the opportunities and take them when you earn them.” ON WHAT SOCIAL JUSTICE MEANS TO HER “Simply for me, it means equality. Equal voice. Equal participation. Equal access. And until we have that, I will continue to fight for those not supported within those constructs.” ON WHETHER THERE SHOULD BE A YEAR OF THE WOMAN “Cecile Richards just spoke at the Women’s March about how white women specifically need to rise up and support minority women as well. That even just within women there are many different groups that need to be supported, and right now a lot of minority women are leading the way, and it’s time for white women to step up—and I really thought that was an incredible message coming from the (then) leader of Planned Parenthood.”

“I just remember getting into the car after my first full day of teaching, and I was so excited and thinking this is definitely where I want to be, this is definitely what I want to do with my career. I was going to school at night and I learned a lot of great techniques. One of the best pieces of advice that I’ve held onto all these years is, find the students that are giving you the most trouble in class and take interest in them. And so that’s what I did, and the kids that were so difficult for me—I showed up with my kids at their tennis match and you know, watched what they were doing, and I had something to talk to them about in class and it really helped. We moved up here in 2005 and I was really fortunate to find a teaching job at Bend High, and the rest is kind of history – wouldn’t leave here for anything. It (International Baccalaureate) has had an enormous impact on the academic culture, specifically at Bend High. We are seeing so many more students taking high level courses. And because of that I think they are just that much more prepared when they leave us. ON THE MOST IMPORTANT ISSUES FACING AMERICANS TODAY “One of the classes I teach is called Theory of Knowledge. We look at how we take in knowledge every day, every second of every day. And because we have so many sources available to us, I think one of the things that we struggle with is where do we take in our information, and how do we consider it valid or true, and how do our own perspectives play into that. So, just trying to figure out who to listen to.” ON WHAT SOCIAL JUSTICE LOOKS LIKE TO HER “Being a teacher, in my corner of the world, it’s trying to give all the opportunities to succeed— opportunities to follow their dreams and different paths for them, regardless of what their background is—and that’s really difficult to do, even just in a classroom setting.” ON HER GO-TO FOR SELF-CARE “So believe it or not, I coach the equestrian team, which is a lot of work but it’s a ton of fun, too. I love being with the kids and the horses— horses calm me every single day. When I’m out with horses I can’t think about all the things on my to-do list, and I just have to pay attention to how the horse is moving and how the horse is feeling that day, and it really helps me let go of all the tension.”  SW

Blast from the Bordello

The life story of Eugene Hutz of Gogol Bordello is the stuff of books and movies By L. Kent Wolgamott 17 VOLUME 22  ISSUE 08  /  February 22, 2018  /  THE SOURCE WEEKLY

Unpredictable and imaginative could also be used to describe the wildly live shows from the eight-piece outfit with members from Russia, Ecuador, Ethiopia and the U.S.

B

orn in the Ukraine, Eugene Hutz formed bands there before coming to the United States, creating a distinctive global music sound with his band, Gogol Bordello. The musician has also acted in movies and even lived in Brazil. Not surprisingly, Hutz has been encouraged to retell his story in a memoir—and has tried and failed several times. That’s because Hutz would much rather write songs. “I really love the art of writing a song, short story and poem,” he said in a recent phone interview. “That’s my favorite work of art. That’s where my main knack is. The song is a short story. I want to tell a story as good as Johnny Cash and Leonard Cohen, and tell it with the stage dynamics of Iggy Pop.” Hutz came to America from the Ukraine in 1992, immediately putting together bands in Vermont and then New York City, while absorbing the sounds around him. Seven years later, Gogol Bordello unleashed the music Hutz created. Tagged “gypsy punk,” it combined sonic strains from eastern Europe, his Romani (Gypsy) heritage, Fugazi-style punk and Jamaican dub. “Indeed, there was actually quite a long evolution,” Hutz said of the development of Gypsy punk. “I’d been the leader for several bands before Gogol Bordello, starting back in the Ukraine where I was raised. Living here, being musically adventurous and worldly interested, a bit of nostalgia creeped in for Eastern Europe spirit and melodies. So I started writing a synthesis that was all of that. “Essentially writing was more to make myself find things,” he said. “You write what you lack. You monumentalize in your work these things that are nowhere else to be found. We were facing the world becoming one big parking lot, basically. The response to that is music that is unpredictable and imaginative.” Unpredictable and imaginative could also be used to describe the wildly theatrical live shows from the

eight-piece outfit with members from Russia, Ecuador, Ethiopia and the U.S. Asked to describe the show, Hutz demurred: “In a way, you’re kind of asking Bruce Lee to tell you what is karate when you’ve never seen karate,” Hutz said. “Where do I begin? Is it a sit-down lounge situation? No.” Sitting isn’t possible while Gogol Bordello delivers its catchy musical amalgam with violin and accordion flying over reggae-rooted rhythms driven by punk intensity, which Hutz says came in large part from the rigorously independent punk band Fugazi. “Fugazi was a tremendously great influence on me and other people in the band,” Hutz said. “I think they were influential on anybody who was attuned to anything progressive in the ‘90s, which is when I arrived here. They became my favorite band. I’ve now found out they’ve also turned out to have quite excitement for our music.” That Fugazi influence extends to “Seekers & Finders,” the band’s seventh album, in a different fashion. The “Finders” side of the album was recorded at the Inner Ear Studio in the Washington, D.C., suburbs where Fugazi made its records. The “Seekers” side was recorded at the Beastie Boys’ Oscilloscope Studio in New York City. Unlike previous albums that were produced and recorded by the likes of Rick Rubin and Steve Albini, “Seekers & Finders” was produced by Hutz. “I’m always very hands-on and at least co-produced Gogol Bordello

With Lucky Chops and Larry and His Flask Fri., Feb. 23 Doors 8pm; Show 9 pm Midtown Ballroom 51 NW Greenwood Ave., Bend $28 adv./$32 door

everything we ever put out,” Hutz said. “In the convergence of the whole thing, the producers and everybody involved added their sparkle. But somewhere in there, I feel responsibility for how it all gets tied together. I felt like if I was fully doing it, I would have to make a record in the right time. I’m a night owl. Consequently, that ruled everybody out to work on the record.” In addition to leading Gogol Bordello, Hutz has done some film work, appearing opposite Elijah Wood in 2005’s “Everything is Illuminated” and starring as an aspiring Ukrainian rock star who moonlights as a cross-dressing dominatrix in the Madonna-directed “Filth and Wisdom.” He and Gogol Bordello have also been the subject of a pair of documentaries. “It’s something that wonderfully shows up, then vapors away, then comes back again, which is how I like it,” Hutz said of his film work. “When my first involvement with that started, the idea of getting an agent and moving to L.A. and doing the whole thing properly, I had to have a moment with myself. “Actually, it was half a moment. I’m an East Coast kind of guy,” he said. “I’m attuned to a sharp New York mentality. Diving into that lifestyle wasn’t for me. I’m an East Coast guy. Even when I was in Brazil, I was an East Coast guy.” So what sent Hutz from Manhattan’s Lower East Side to Brazil? “Women,” he said. “To be more specific, it was a particular woman I was in love with. That’s a good engine for me moving around the world. For 99 percent of men, it’s the same to be propelled by that.” Hutz was planning to write a memoir during his Brazilian sojourn, but he didn’t get much done—eventually rejecting the publisher’s overtures as he had done several times previously. What he did come up with was most of “Trans-Continental Hustle,” the band’s Rubin-produced 2010 major label debut. And, Hutz said, his focus remains on writing the Gogol Bordello songs.  SW

Steve Miller and Peter Frampton are joining forces for another summer tour—and they’re making a stop in Bend. The Steve Miller Band, an integral part of the San Francisco music scene in the late ‘60s, shook up American culture with a blend of psychedelic blues and Americana roots. Fun fact: Les Paul was Miller’s godfather, playing a large role in his development as a musician. Frampton, known for his solo work as well as being a founding member of The Herd and Humble Pie, is a rock music icon. He’s collaborated with legends such as George Harrison (personally, my favorite Beatle), David Bowie, Jerry Lee Lewis and more. His album, “Frampton Comes Alive!” remains one of the top-selling live albums of all time. With any luck, Frampton will serenade the audience with his Talk Box for a song or two.

f you’ve read through the rest of this issue, then you’ve likely already read the words of our Women of the Year— who, almost without exception, said ‘listening better’ is one of the number one challenges facing our community/Americans/the world right now. None of the women featured in our women’s issue got to see or hear the responses that others gave to that question we posed—but yet, they all answered in a similar way. When I met her for this Spotlight interview, Carol Delmonico, a life coach and self-described “cultural change agent” in Bend, also answered that question in a similar way. Listening plays big in her practice, in which she encourages clients to foster the tenets of non-violent communication, moving from a “language of domination and habits that create reactivity and judgement to cultivating your listening and speaking in ways that bring you more honesty, connection and mutuality,” according to her website. In a social and political climate in which hate and “otherness” has been playing big, listening, it seems, emerges as a universal aspiration. Among the offerings Delmonico offers in her consulting and coaching practice, the “Heartful Communication” program focuses on communication as both “an art and a skill.” One big shift the program aims to foster: learning to distinguish the difference between observing and evaluating—in other words, learning to listen to people without judging what they have to say. Seems like something that would

benefit people in the political spectrum, doesn’t it? While Delmonico now spends her days coaching and consulting full time, it wasn’t long ago that she worked as a nurse health coach within the St. Charles Health System. In that role, it was up to Delmonico and other nurse health coaches to help staff members identify the challenges they were facing in regard to their health, and then to help them establish a plan to achieve better health—whether physical, mental or otherwise. That work had Delmonico meeting with more than 3,000 employees. While Delmonico holds two healt care degrees and spent 18 years as a Registered Nurse, she found herself wanting something different as she turned 40. She says when St. Charles ended the nurse health coach program, she moved into running her own business full time. “I think the intention behind it all is trying to get both individuals and our collective world to begin to see the world through a different lens,” Delmonico told me, over hot drinks at Lone Pine Coffee Roasters. “Really, we’re all in this together. We’ve been raised in a very individualistic culture that sort of gets stuck in too much of me-mine, and this separation between me and someone else and right now with the political polarity— you can see it as progressives and conservatives—but it’s all over the place.

Jm Brodrick: Mastering a life of art

I

t comes as no surprise that Jm Brodrick listens to German opera when she paints. Her paintings, much like opera, are masterful creations revealing the essence of her subjects, using traditional techniques that take years to develop. It’s technique you may not understand, but technique that you feel, that you understand without words. When you see her work, it’s clear Brodrick has dedicated her life to deeply understanding and mastering the craft of painting. The first thing she’ll tell you: she’s not formally trained; no college, no art school. At 17, Brodrick took to the world on her own, taking a job at an insurance company, working her way up over a 37-year career, learning every detail of the business. Her life in art is quite similar.

“The journal ended up coming about because this summer during the fires, you know, it was an intense year, 2017, for so many reasons, and during the fires I made this choice to stay in Bend.”

“We can look at, in Bend, as the east side versus west side, people that can’t afford to live here and the people who have more … so all of those things. So what I do with individuals is help them get a better perspective of how they can step out of that mindset and move into a mindset that fuels them to do whatever their thing is in the world that’s going to support both themselves and the world we live in.” When I met with Delmonico, she had sent her first book, “Stoke Your Woke,” to the printer just days before—an exciting experience for any new author. The book—more of a workbook, really—poses a series of questions, encouraging the user to look deeper into their place in the world. “The journal ended up coming about because this summer during the fires, you know, it was an intense year, 2017, for so many reasons, and during the fires I made this choice to stay in Bend,” Delmonico explains. “One day, in the morning, I woke up and the air quality had been 800 that night and I just

stood in front of my computer and was like … what am I going to do? Am I doing enough? And I stood there, all of a sudden, and I opened my computer, and these 50 questions came, like within 10 minutes.” The questions might have come easily—but the answers are likely to take a bit longer. Really, it’s the questions themselves that can often be the answers. “In our culture, as you know, as a busy working mom, we don’t have that much time to reflect and ask yourself the deeper questions that you really want to ask yourself, and there’s not a lot of format and structure in our communities to do that.”   SW Creating a World that Works for All Vision-Board and Retreat Day for Women Sat., March 10 9:30am-4:30pm Waterside Building; 2445 NE Division St. Suite 102, Bend More info: email Carol at cae.delmonico@gmail.com

By Teafly Peterson At a young age, she was taught by her grandmother, a professional watercolorist and a group of fellow artist friends and colleagues, all formally trained. Brodrick began with drawing but soon was given more techniques to explore. When most kids were doodling and using sidewalk chalk, Brodrick was being trained in the deep craft of visual art, even being told she could only draw with two colors over the course of a year. She chose pink and blue. It was this early, deep development that created a love for craft in Brodrick, so apparent in her work. No one can paint how she does and not truly love it. “What I like about painting portraits the most, is the challenge that the portrait has to look like the person, and I love a challenge. Every painting you learn something; no painting is ever a failure. You always gain skill or you learn what not to do.” Brodrick says. A new challenge

she’s given herself is to paint the portrait of 16 female Bend artists, on top of backgrounds of each subject’s work. She’ll have a show in November in Franklin Crossing, and from there will travel. While she used to paint on just the weekends, retirement has brought a new kind of day-to-day for Brodrick. She’s often painting six to 10 hours a day, fulfilling commissions for subjects all over the world. “It’s a life’s vocation. It’s not work. It is what I choose to do and how I choose to spend my time,” explains Brodrick. Beginning in April, she’ll hang her work regularly in the hallway of Franklin Crossing. There’s no slowing down for Brodrick just a deeper shift into her life’s work which seems to be bursting forth in a way we get to appreciate and enjoy.  SW March is National Women’s History Month! In honor of that, I’ll be writing a portrait piece on a woman artist of Bend each week, featuring four artists who work in a variety of mediums.

Lost Virginity

A play about women road tripping to revisit their first encounters. Sign us up! By Elizabeth Warnimont

“Pickleball, a swimming pool, an event calendar every month.” “They’re all different,” says Daniel. “Elaine (played by Sherie Neff) is more prim and proper, more the motherly type. Kitty (Gloria Anderson) is a southern belle from North Carolina. Rita (Mary Kilpatrick) has been married almost 40 years and Viola (Jennifer Collins) was married four times. “They’ve become each other’s families. Viola is alone, and so is Kitty. Rita has a husband, but if it’s baseball and football season he doesn’t know where the hell she is—and Elaine’s a widow. They love being together. They look forward to it, they make a big deal out of it.” Viola is the firecracker among the four. “Viola comes up with the brilliant idea to hop in her convertible and drive across the country. If there was going to be a ringleader, in this case it’s Viola, the Italian Catholic from Hoboken, New Jersey. She makes them all tour t-shirts. She’s really excited. She thinks they’re like the Rolling Stones.”

The outcome of that leg of the women’s journey is left to the audience’s imagination. noon and just hours later I told Cricket, ‘I must do this play.’ All the characters tugged at me. She’s incredibly funny. I literally couldn’t put it down.” The four friends, named Viola, Kitty, Rita and Elaine, live at the Happy Trails retirement community in Surprise, Ariz. They meet every week at Elaine’s house as the Happy Trails Baking Club. “They all moved there to live this 55-andover resort lifestyle,” says Manning.

The women’s journey down memory lane takes a circuitous route, beginning in North Carolina for Kitty, where she recalls a heart-wrenching tale of young love, moving on from there to Ball State University in Indiana, where Rita also relates a true love experience. Then it’s Viola’s turn, as the four visit her grandmother’s home in New Jersey and she tells a more somber tale before they continue on to Elaine’s family cabin in

laywright Cricket Daniel loves to tell the story of how she conceived her newest play, “The Lost Virginity Tour,” in which four women in a baking club set out on a road trip to revisit the sites of their first intimate encounters. “I was peddling my Christmas play last year,” Daniel told the Source Weekly, “handing out postcards at the Tower Theatre. I ran into two girlfriends of mine, Val and Wendy, and we got to talking. ‘What are you doing for the holidays… I’m going home for Christmas in San Luis Obispo… Oh, I lost my virginity in SLO—So did I, on the beach!’ I said, how fun would it be if we could all go and revisit all of these places and share our stories. So I’m passing out fliers, and the whole time, the characters started coming to me, the storyline started coming to me.” Marla Manning was so immediately taken with Daniel’s play that she said yes to directing it, despite a concurrent project being just weeks away from opening night. “I got the script Thursday after-

Viola (Jennifer Collins, seated) and Rita (Mary Kilpatrick) rehearse for “The Lost Virginity Tour.”

Colorado, where a buried time capsule brings about a profound revelation. The friends’ newly recalled experiences ultimately drive them to extend their trip, determined to make at least one more journey of discovery before finally heading back home to Happy Trails. The outcome of that leg of the women’s journey is left to the audience’s imagination. We asked both playwright and director what they hope audiences will take away from the play. “One of the reasons I love Cricket’s plays is that they all have a lot of humor in them,” says Manning. “What I loved about this one was beyond the humor, the poignancy. I want them to be moved. I want them to walk out and talk about

it. I want people to feel like, ooh, I get that. That really does affect me because I can relate to it.” “I hope that as a storyteller, I will move the audience to tears,” Daniel confesses. “I do enjoy when somebody will seek me out afterwards and say, ‘You made me think about such-and-such for the first time.’ When they have a personal connection, and they share that with me, I thoroughly enjoy that.”  SW The Lost Virginity Tour Fri., Feb. 23-Sat., March 10 2nd Street Theater 220 NE Lafayette Ave., Bend 2ndstreettheater.com 541-312-9626 $16-$19

Garden Betty Moves to Bend LITTLE BITES By Jared Rasic

New camp cookbook for gourmets

Lisa Sipe

To make Food for the Sole’s dehydrated offerings, Julie Mosier starts by cooking the meal, then it heads to her commercial dehydrators.

Backpacker turns bad meal into a business

Ly’s buttermilk pancakes with maple and mascarpone are so light, fluffy and delicious you’ll want them at camp and on lazy Sunday mornings at home.

food and the effort it takes to prepare it. On a recent camping trip to Suttle Lake, I made Ly’s buttermilk pancakes with maple syrup, mascarpone and berries. Like some recipes in the book, I had to do a bit of prep at home. I premade the multipurpose baking mix—a dry mixture of flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda and salt. At camp I whisked buttermilk, mascarpone, eggs and butter into the dry mixture. After heating a skillet on my propane stove, I buttered the surface and poured in some batter. The pancake started to cook and bubbles broke on the surface. When I flipped the pancake over it fluffed up instantly. I served the pancake with mascarpone sweetened with powdered sugar and a drizzle of real maple syrup. My camping companion and I both agreed, these were some of the best pancakes we’ve ever had, on or off the trail. That sweet, creamy mascarpone took the humble pancake to the next level. In addition to recipes for breakfast, lunch, snacks, dinner, drinks and desserts, Ly has included a section on setting up a camp kitchen. If you’ve never cooked while camping, or want some new tips, it’s a must read. Ly tells you

what equipment to bring, how to stock your pantry and organize your food. She doesn’t stop there; she lets you know how to build a fire, master the grill, cook in foil, cook in a Dutch oven or on a camp stove, and how to do your dishes without running water. “The New Camp Cookbook” is perfect for life in Central Oregon. The recipes are great for backyard barbecues, adventures in the mountains or along the river. When Ly was on tour with her first book she took a side trip to Bend with her husband before their first child was born. They both knew they wanted a lifestyle change from Southern California, and after visiting Bend during each season, they decided to make it home in late 2017. Central Oregon is providing new challenges in gardening for Ly, including building a chicken coop and an off-grid solar greenhouse to see what she can grow in the high desert. Both of Ly’s cookbooks are available online. Keep up with her adventures on her blog, Garden Betty. SW

Several years ago, Julie Mosier went on a solo backpacking trip to the Three Sisters Wilderness, bringing along offthe-shelf backpacking food. As she was looking over Moraine Lake eating her meal, she thought, “This is not good.” That disappointment inspired her to make backpacking meals delicious. She started experimenting by cooking meals the way she would at home and then dehydrating them. Her son, Henry, became her first taste tester. During his three-week hike on the John Muir Trail, she provided all the food and he gave honest feedback about which meals he didn’t want again and those he couldn’t get enough of. After four years of recipe development, Mosier launched Food for the Sole in December with six ultra-light, packable meals. The high protein dishes include garlic green bean and cashew stir fry, ratatouille with nutty quinoa pilaf, roasted sweet potatoes with kale and quinoa, lentil walnut pilaf with kale, and coconut rice and Cuban black beans. The preparation method is straightforward: add boiling water, wait and eat right from the pouch. Their most unique product is the peanut super slaw, a crunchy salad with cabbage, peppers, carrots and peanuts you make with cold water. There really is nothing like it on the market. On a hot summer afternoon this crisp, refreshing salad would be satisfying. Mosier says, “You should be able to have great food anywhere.” You can find Food for the Sole’s adventure-ready meals on its website.  SW

ou never know where life will take you. Linda Ly had no idea moving into a cute 1920s bungalow on a quarter acre in the South Bay of Los Angeles in 2010 would turn her into a cookbook author. When Ly arrived there in summer, she said, “It was bursting with tons of fruits and veggies.” Ly had never gardened before, so she learned through trial and error. The time she spent with her hands in the dirt was relaxing—so different than her life as a graphic designer and web developer. She shared her gardening adventures with her urban friends, who were so interested in what she was doing that she started a blog, Garden Betty, so they could follow her story. After a few years and winning a Blue Ribbon Blogger Award from Country Living, the blog caught the attention of the folks at Quarto Publishing, who wanted her to write a cookbook. Ly’d been thinking of writing a book for a while. Inspired by the Garden Betty blog, the book’s titled, “The CSA Cookbook: No-Waste Recipes for Cooking Your Way Through a Community Supported Agriculture Box, Farmers’ Market or Backyard Bounty.” It was published in 2014 when the community-supported agriculture movement was gaining popularity and lots of people were finding themselves with new vegetables they didn’t know what to do with. When it came time for a second book, Ly wanted to write one “about her life outside in the wild, where there are no distractions and the food tastes better,” she said. “The New Camp Cookbook: Gourmet Grub for Campers, Road Trippers, and Adventurers,” was released in July. Like her first book, this one fills a void in the market. There aren’t a lot of camping cookbooks, and “The New Camp Cookbook” is jam-packed with gorgeous full-color photography and modern recipes mixing global flavors and real food. The book is clearly written for people who love outdoor adventures just as much as they enjoy good

Lost at sea, found in your glass.

t’s wintry outside again ( just in time for the end of February!), and as if on cue, breweries across the state of Oregon are preparing their offerings for the rest of the season and beyond. Given that it’s the darkest time of the year, thick concoctions from barrels dominate the scene—but take heart, for it’ll be 90 degrees again before long and cans of Fresh Squeezed will become the order of the day... pFriem Rum Barrel Aged Porter Beer fans can argue ‘til they’re blue in the face about what’s the best kind of liquor barrel to age beer in. There’s no truly correct answer, of course, but when it comes to taking a porter and giving it some of the most exotic complexity possible, rum is always a fine go-to. That’s the philosophy of the guys from Hood River, who’ve taken their base imperial-porter recipe and put it in oak barrels straight from the Caribbean for a year. The result: A 9.5 percent sipper that tastes, and smells, like a rich, drinkable dessert. Want something lighter? Try pFriem’s new Golden Coffee Ale instead, a neat little harmony of citrus-y hops and Kenyan beans. Buoy Love, Lost at Sea Over at the Astoria taproom, Buoy Beer Company has slowly been releasing more and more experimental oneoffs to complement their usual excellent

ADVERTISE@BENDSOURCE.COM

IPA and lager offerings. Now, thanks to their new Small Batch Series of 500ml bottles, the rest of the state will get in on the action a little. The line kicks off with Love, Lost at Sea, which also marks Buoy’s first release from its own barrel-aging program. It’s a barley wine, aged in Bull Run whiskey barrels for five months and oozing with heavy malt flavor and quite a bit of alcohol (11.5 percent). Next year’s barley wine is already quietly resting in barrels at their brewery by the sea, too. Deschutes The Ages More locally, Deschutes has already unveiled details on its plans for most of 2018, including the return of Twilight Summer Ale, a summer radler made in collaboration with Humm Kombucha, and even a new taproom set to open in the Portland Airport (there’s a temporary kiosk at Concourse D to explore right now). Those with a taste for the exotic, however, will need to look out for The Ages in April— Deschutes’ first 500ml bottle release. The Ages defies easy description; it’s a multi-year blend of wild ales, inspired by the Gueuzes from Belgium’s most storied breweries, brimming with fruity and white-pepper flavors. Looking for more straight-on pucker? Head to the brewpub to try the Pear Bergamot, part of a new rotating line of kettle sours that’ll rotate around the taps all year.  SW

THE 15:17 TO PARIS: Director Clint Eastwood has dedicated large swaths of his career to telling the stories of American heroes in his motion pictures. With “The 15:17 to Paris,” he not only tells the stories, but casts those heroes to play themselves to bring an air of authenticity to the proceedings. Eastwood knows his way around intensity, so expect the film to be absolutely riveting. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House, Redmond Cinema BLACK PANTHER: The hype for the newest

film in Marvel’s slate of superhero flicks has been overwhelming and, amazingly, the film completely deserves it. “Black Panther” is less of a superhero movie with some drama thrown in than a family drama with some superheroes sprinkled throughout. A genuinely thoughtful and powerful film that finally puts an African-American hero front and center. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House, Redmond Cinema

DARKEST HOUR: Gary Oldman is on the fast track for his first Oscar as a heavily madeup Winston Churchill. The film looks intense and like an actor’s paradise, but performances under that much makeup are usually goofier than the filmmakers like to believe. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX EARLY MAN: A new animated adventure from

Aardman, the team that brought us the wonderful “Wallace and Gromit.” Since it’s about cavemen fighting back against the Bronze Age, it should be another delightfully strange look at the world from the brilliant British team of animators. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

FIFTY SHADES FREED: The awkwardness of watching a movie with tons of graphic sex scenes in public just isn’t worth it and the adventures of Grey and Steele aren’t enough to carry a movie. The best thing about the movie is the soundtrack, which is exactly what was best about the last two films. If you have to see it, Redbox is the way to go. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Redmond Cinema THE FLORIDA PROJECT: Director Sean Baker

was responsible for 2015’s brilliant “Tangerine” and 2012’s profanely moving “Starlet,” so expect “The Florida Project” to be another wonderful little film. Starring Willem Dafoe and a star-making performance by Brooklynn Prince, “The Florida Project” will definitely be a contender during awards season. Sisters Movie House

THE GREATEST SHOWMAN: Hugh Jack-

man started his career as a song and dance man, so it’s fitting that he returns in a giant Hollywood musical about the life of P.T. Barnum. Who wants to guess whether the film soft pedals the animal abuse and mistreatment of the side show attractions? Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

HOSTILES: Christian Bale shows up to play

cowboys and Indians in the latest film from Scott Cooper, the extremely inconsistent director of “Get Low” and “Black Mass.” Hopefully, “Hostiles” is as powerful as its trailer, but “Black Mass” had a great trailer and was a downright terrible bit of filmmaking. This one could go either way. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

JUMANJI: WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE:

Loosely connected to the original “Jumanji” starring Robin Williams, this reboot updates the story of kids sucked into a board game into something for the digital age. Starring Kevin Hart, Jack Black, The Rock and Karen Gillan, this looks much more

entertaining than it has any right to be. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

THE LAST JEDI: The darkest and most emotionally brutal “Star Wars” film since “The Empire Strikes Back” sees the characters we know and love put through the wringer in one scene after another. This might not be a crowd pleaser in the same way “The Force Awakens” was, but it’s a mature and nuanced entry into the beloved franchise. This will only become more beloved as it ages. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Redmond Cinema MAZE RUNNER: THE DEATH CURE: The finale of the surprisingly good YA trilogy finally comes to theaters after a year waiting for the lead actor to heal from a broken leg. The filmmakers must have realized everyone was pretty excited for the movie since the final product is close to a whopping three hours long. It’s still a fun watch, even with the ridiculous running time. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX THE OSCAR NOMINATED SHORTS: Documentary, Animated and Narrative: Every year Tin Pan Theater exclusively gets the Oscar shorts and every year those shorts become more powerful, more sweet and/or more memorable. Sometimes the documentaries can be brutal, but they shed light on corners of the globe we normally never get to see. Tin Pan Theater PETER RABBIT: From the director of “Easy A”

comes the story of “Peter Rabbit” and his war with the nasty Mr. McGregor. Combining CGI with live action, “Peter Rabbit” looks like a cute companion to films such as “Paddington” and “Babe.” Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House, Redmond Cinema

THE POST: The combination of Meryl Streep,

Tom Hanks and Steven Spielberg should make for a classic, especially when the film is focused on the importance of solid and trustworthy newspapers. Advanced word says this is another Spielberg home run. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

SAMSON: From the studio that brought us “God’s Not Dead” comes a Christian swords and sandals flick featuring history’s favorite hair model. Didn’t Samson also light a bunch of foxes on fire and kill a bunch of people with the jawbone of a donkey? I wonder if that’s gonna be in the movie. Count me in, I guess. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX THE SHAPE OF WATER: The delightful love story about a mute cleaning woman and her torrid romance with a fish monster. It begins to make more sense knowing it’s from the mind of visionary filmmaker Guillermo Del Toro, the mastermind behind “Crimson Peak” and “Pan’s Labyrinth.” Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House THE STAR: Who doesn’t love anthropomorphized

animals hanging around the birth of Christ?? “The Star” follows a brave little donkey and his friends Camel, Lady Horse, Sheep Guy, Other Camel and Dogma as they hang around for the first Christmas. A cross between “The Secret Life of Pets” and Sunday School. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House

WINCHESTER: A spooky ghost flick about

the Winchester Mystery House seems like it was long overdue, but this movie doesn’t really satisfy that craving even a little bit. A slumming Helen Mirren adds some class to the proceedings, but with a ludicrously silly plot and a deficit of scares, “Winchester” misses the mark. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

I’m not a betting man, but if I were, the Oscars are the only thing I’d feel comfortable making predictions about. There are always the things that should win because they’re heads and shoulders above the rest of the nominees, but they’re usually defeated by the things that will win either because of popularity or Academy politics.

ack in 2003, Delores Marsh, with the prodding of then-President of Central Oregon Flyfishers, Dan Driskill, started a women’s-only fly fishing group, now named the Wild Women of the Water. The original group was only three members, but has grown to 60 strong in its 15-year existence. “It became an idea in early 2003 and we had our first real meeting in September 2003,” Marsh said. “How it originated was, I was on the board of directors (for COF) and all of the fellas wanted to have their wives or their significant others fish, but the women didn’t want to have a man teaching them. And so Dan wanted to know if I wanted to start a women’s group and I said, ‘I don’t know how to fish well enough.’ And he said, ‘Well, you’ll learn.’ And I did.” I was fortunate to sit down and chat with Marsh and three other members of the group, current COF board member Kari Schoessler, Mary Ann Dozer—a guide through the Fly Fisher’s Place in Sisters—and Lee Ann Ross, the group’s retiring president. As a lifelong angler lucky enough to have a grandfather to teach me fly casting about the age of 8, I’m always interested in what gets people into the challenge of catching fish the hard way; no bait, just handtied pieces of feathers and yarn, painstakingly wrapped, Above, members of the Wild Women of the Water at the 50th Annual tied and glued to the body of a hook, then flung into Federation of Fly Fishers International Fair on East Lake in 2015.

If Allowed, Raccoons Will Stay

Like deer, raccoons shouldn’t be fed by humans. Take this hilarious tale as proof By Jim Anderson

O

Jim Anderson

I took him out of the house and ran down the road about 100 yards (in my underwear) to a huge blackberry patch. In spite of the fact the dog outweighed the coon two to one and could tear it apart if it had the opportunity, within two weeks, the raccoons had taught the German Shepherd to climb trees and share its food‚ or else. It eventually got to the point when the homeowner began feeding the dog in the house. That irked the raccoons and they’d pound on the back door to be fed outside, and I’ll be dinked if the homeowner didn’t do that. Do you think your neighbor would feed you if you pounded on his back door to be fed? He wouldn’t; he’d call a cop. And yet those wise and bold raccoons get away with it. When I was the naturalist for OMSI, I ended up taking care of and placing wild animals back into the wild that their keepers had gotten tired of—like skunks that had been de-scented by a vet and turned into a house pet. When they became adults and started tearing things up in the house, they weren’t so “cute” anymore, and zoos would end up with them. Zoos can handle only so much, and then suckers like me would try to place them back into the wild. The worst animal to (attempt to) send back out into the wild is a raccoon. They are extremely reluctant to give up mooching and can be really pestiferous at it. Often they’d learn to open the refrigerator door on their own, and/or learn where the cookies and hamburger are kept and be obnoxious about getting their way. I had a particularly stubborn raccoon that I put back into the wild again and again that about drove me nuts. I was batchin’ at that time and tried to convince the coon it was better off out in the wild. But it actually learned how to get up on the front or back door and swing on the doorknob until the door opened and then sneak into the house, get into the fridge and pig out. And of course, I often forgot to lock the doors. I came home one afternoon right after work and

ur common variety raccoon, usually found near water, always mooching, is truly a wonder. Raccoons can get by on just about anything edible left out on the back porch, and once they’ve found a food source, they’re reluctant to change their habits. Feeding mule deer is a very bad habit, but feeding raccoons is a lot more dangerous, and once started, can get out of control. The human who starts it can go to the poorhouse—or madhouse—trying to keep up. Unlike humans—and most of other creatures who live on this wonderful old planet Earth, raccoons can push Darwin’s theory of adapting into one lifetime. I have personally watched a family of raccoons move into a neighborhood and start experimenting with harvesting food in what appears to be a very thoughtful manner. While working as the staff naturalist for the Oregon Museum of Science & Industry in Portland in the ‘60s, a homeowner in Lake Oswego shared his observations of a family of raccoons that found a home under a dumpster behind a grocery store. The raccoons knew when the dumpster was open and took advantage of every moment the cover was left up, foraging not just for anything to eat, but what they “liked” to eat. Then they discovered my informant was feeding his German Shepherd on the back porch, placing delightful canned and pellet food in the doggie dish.

A young raccoon investigating new habitat: my neighbor’s backyard.

was getting ready to go on a date. I started the bath water running and was in the bedroom getting my clean clothes out when suddenly I heard the familiar song of a raccoon having a wonderful time. They sing, you know. I ran out of the bedroom and sure enough, the front door was wide open and the bathroom door was closed. “On no!” I shouted, and ran up to the bathroom door… only to find it locked. That sly, young whippersnapper of a coon had gotten into the bathroom, locked the door and was in the bathtub frolicking and singing. The big problem was the bathtub was still filling and that blinkity-blankity coon was playing in it. I actually had to take the bathroom window out of the frame— from outside the house—in a hurry to keep the bathtub from running over, and in so doing I really was not in a good mood when I arrived inside. I grabbed the coon right by the back of his neck in a iron grip so he couldn’t get at me—he’d have torn my arm off if he could! I took him out of the house and ran down the road about 100 yards (in my underwear) to a huge blackberry patch. Then I spun around like an Olympic discus-thrower, and at about the 5th spin, gave that infernal coon all I could and sent him sailing out into the huge blackberry patch. All the way though

his flight he was screaming at me, using language that only another raccoon could understand, which I’m sure was not polite. The best part of this story is every time I saw that coon from that day on he gave me a wide berth, and eventually vanished. Raccoons have heavy fur, used back in the late 1800s and early 1900s for outdoor clothing. The name “raccoon” was adopted into the English language by John Smith from the Colony of Virginia from early contact with the Powhatan People, who pronounced it, “aroughcun.” The Algonquin People knew them as the “ahrah-koon-em,” “the one who rubs, scrubs and scratches with its hands.” Trappers throughout the U.S. sold raccoon fur for good prices and even sold live animals to the Russians for the coon’s heavy, warm fur. The Russians knew them as poloskuns, the “rinsers.” They probably also found coons could open their food caches and thereby make an annoying nuisance of themselves. So, be forewarned. If you have a raccoon—or worse yet, plural raccoons around your place, don’t leave anything around for them to eat. Once they’ve adapted to being fed anything, they’ll camp on your doorstep and drive you nuts! Wildlife is best left wild, whether they be mice, skunks, mule deer, raccoons or bull frogs!  SW

The Backdoor Revolution: The Book

A

Oregonian, ADU advocate Kol Peterson is quoted as saying there’s been a 22-fold increase in annual ADU permits over the last 10 years. While some people don’t like to see changes in their neighborhoods, many embrace this concept and there are signs that the popularity is increasing. Rising housing costs make it popular for young and old alike with many being motivated by the rental income from an ADU helping pay their mortgage or allowing for multi-generational living. Changing household sizes are also creating demand for smaller housing. ADUs are often the size of 1950s homes. Peterson, a longtime small housing advocate and ADU expert in Portland, released a book on the subject on Jan. 23, titled “Backdoor Revolution-The Definitive Guide to ADU Development.” The book offers advice on construction, regulatory barriers and loopholes, financing, space-saving layouts and so on. This book is showing up on various real estate and even planning blogs. The author also has an active blog with useful links and additional information at accessorydwellings.org.

49 VOLUME 22  ISSUE 08  /  February 22, 2018  /  THE SOURCE WEEKLY

s last week’s feature story in the Source highlighted, many people in Bend are adding accessory dwelling units to their properties. The process typically involves the addition of a new structure, conversion of a basement to an apartment, converting a garage into living space or adding living space on top of an existing garage. Housing prices have been a big factor in this increase. Some cities, including Portland, are encouraging such infill development. According to an article in The Oregonian, Portland’s relatively recent Residential Infill Project allows two additional units on lots located in neighborhoods with access to transit. The City of Portland offers an added incentive for ADUs by providing a waiver of system development fees. This has been going on since 2010, according to the article. Infill housing uses existing utilities and service such as roads, sewers, and schools—and their smaller size means they typically leave a smaller carbon footprint. These homes are typically smaller than new construction and their popularity reflects changing housing needs. In that recent article in The

What do dreams mean? I was dumped 10 months ago. I couldn’t stop thinking about him. Now I barely do, but last night, I dreamed I broke in to his apartment, found him in bed with this gorgeous girl, and punched her in the face. Does this mean I’m not over him? —Wanna Start Dating Follow your dreams—and end up doing five to 10 in the pen for home invasion and assault! The widely believed myth that dreams are filled with meaningful symbolism is an unfortunate form of what I call Freud reflux—the “I Dream of Penie” version of a questionable burrito that keeps repeating on you. The assumption that Freud knew what he was talking about comes not from any solid evidence for his claims but, as I wrote in a previous column, probably in part because he “accessorized so credibly, with the cigar, the iconic eyewear, and the groovy Viennese fainting couch.” Psychologist G. William Domhoff, on the other hand, has done decades of rigorous research on dreaming. He finds there’s really no good scientific evidence that dreams have any importance for guiding our lives—no evidence that they have any function or useful meaning for us (save for the guy in the turban and kohl eyeliner outside the food co-op, for whom dreams are the stuff that timely rent payments are made of). Domhoff explains dreaming as “intensified mind-wandering” that leads to “imaginative but largely realistic simulations of waking life.” Brain imaging of people in REM sleep (a sleep stage often accompanied by vivid dreams) suggests our capacity to dream is “an accidental byproduct of our waking cognitive abilities” and may be a “subsystem” of the “default mode network” of the brain. This is simply the network of neurons the brain “defaults” to when you aren’t doing targeted thinking, like trying to solve some complicated equation or remember some word in French. Your brain doesn’t just shut down between these targeted thinking jags. It does what I think of as “background processing,” gnawing at problems you were previously focused on—but it does it beneath your conscious awareness while you’re, oh, washing a dish or having sex. So, in a way, dream time seems to be a kind of cognitive autopilot. In brain scans of people in REM sleep, neurobiologist Yuval Nir sees decreased self-awareness, attention, and memory. There’s also reduced

“voluntary control” of action and thought— which is why, when dreaming, we cannot control “the content of the dream,” like by changing the channel from HesWithSomeHussy!TV. Nir also finds that there’s often— surprise, surprise—greater emotionality when dreaming. (Presumably, you don’t go around punching your ex-boyfriend’s dates in your waking life.) However, Domhoff says that in many instances, dreams “dramatize ongoing emotional preoccupations.” These are sometimes unhealthy or at least unhelpful. You’d think you could just try to avoid thinking those thoughts during your waking hours. Unfortunately, research by the late social psychologist Daniel Wegner suggests otherwise. Wegner, famously, instructed research participants, “Try not to think of a white bear.” This is a failed proposition from the start, because your mind sweeps around to check whether you’re avoiding bear-pondering—thus leading you to think about the bear. In short, Wegner found that trying to suppress thoughts made them come back with a vengeance. The same was true when he later had subjects try to suppress thoughts just Amy Alkon before going to sleep. These subjects were much more likely to have those thoughts be all “We’re baaaack!” in their dreams. But—good news—there is a way to outsmart your brain’s yanking you back into the same old abyss. Psychologists Jens Forster and Nira Liberman found that you can probably keep yourself from endlessly revisiting a thought if you simply admit that not thinking of it is hard. As I explain in my new book, “Unf*ckology: A Field Guide to Living with Guts and Confidence,” their solution “probably sounds too simple to be real, but it makes sense. Removing the need to patrol your thoughts also removes the mental sticky note that tells you to keep going back into Thoughtland … to see how well you’re doing.” In general, you should try to avoid ruminating—pointlessly rechewing the past, like your mind’s a sadistic TV station always showing the same disturbing rerun. Moving forward takes thinking about the past in “forward” ways—basically, by making meaning out of it. So when you find yourself reflecting on this relationship, remind yourself to put the right spin on it: looking at it from the standpoint of what you’ve learned—what you’ll apply to make your relationships work better in the future. Before long, you could be on a date again— and I don’t mean one of his, with binoculars from a car across the street.

ASTROLOGY

ARIES (March 21-April 19): When you’re playing poker, a wild card refers to a card that can be used as any card the cardholder wants it to be. If the two of hearts is deemed wild before the game begins, it can be used as an ace of diamonds, jack of clubs, queen of spades, or anything else. That’s always a good thing! In the game of life, a wild card is the arrival of an unforeseen element that affects the flow of events unpredictably. It might derail your plans, or alter them in ways that are at first inconvenient but ultimately beneficial. It may even cause them to succeed in an even more interesting fashion than you imagined they could. I bring this up, Aries, because I suspect that you’ll be in the Wild Card Season during the next four weeks. Any and all of the above definitions may apply. Be alert for unusual luck. TAURUS (April 20May 20): If you gorge on ten pounds of chocolate in the next 24 hours, you will get sick. Please don’t do that. Limit your intake to no more than a pound. Follow a similar policy with any other pleasurable activity. Feel emboldened to surpass your normal dosage, yes, but avoid ridiculous overindulgence. Now is one of the rare times when visionary artist William Blake’s maxim is applicable: “The road of excess leads to the palace of wisdom.” So is his corollary, “You never know what is enough until you know what is more than enough.” But keep in mind that Blake didn’t say, “The road of foolish, reckless exorbitance leads to the palace of wisdom.”

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Have you ever had a rousing insight about an action that would improve your life, but then you failed to summon the willpower to actually take that action? Have you resolved to embark on some new behavior that would be good for you, but then found yourself unable to carry it out? Most of us have experienced these frustrations. The ancient Greeks had a word for it: *akrasia.* I bring it up, Gemini, because I suspect you may be less susceptible to *akrasia* in the next four weeks than you have ever been. I bet you will consistently have the courage and command to actually follow through on what your intuition tells you is in your best interests. CANCER (June 21-July 22): “There is no such thing as a failed experiment,” said inventor Buckminster Fuller, “only experiments with unexpected outcomes.” That’s an excellent guideline for you to keep in mind during the coming weeks. You’re entering a phase of your astrological cycle when questions are more important than answers, when explorations are more essential than discoveries, and when curiosity is more useful than knowledge. There will be minimal value in formulating a definitive concept of success and then trying to achieve it. You will have more fun and you will learn more by continually redefining success as you wander and ramble.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): During World War II, British code-breakers regularly intercepted and deciphered top-secret radio messages that high-ranking German soldiers sent to each other. Historians have concluded that these heroes shortened the war by at least two years. I bring this to your attention, Leo, in the hope that it will inspire you. I believe your own metaphorical code-breaking skills will be acute in the coming weeks. You’ll

be able to decrypt messages that have different meanings from what they appear to mean. You won’t get fooled by deception and misdirection. This knack will enable you to home in on the elusive truths that are circulating -- thus saving you from unnecessary and irrelevant turmoil.

51

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): In April 1972, three American astronauts climbed into a spacecraft and took a trip to the moon and back. On the second day of the 11-day jaunt, pilot Ken Mattingly removed and misplaced his wedding ring. In the zero-gravity conditions, it drifted off and disappeared somewhere in the cabin. Nine days later, on the way home, Mattingly and Charlie Duke did a space walk. When they opened the hatch and slipped outside, they found the wedding ring floating in the blackness of space. Duke was able to grab it and bring it in. I suspect that in the coming weeks, you will recover a lost or missing item in an equally unlikely location, Virgo. Or perhaps your retrieval will be of a more metaphorical kind: a dream, a friendship, an opportunity.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): According to British philosopher Alain de Botton, “Maturity begins with the capacity to sense and, in good time and without defensiveness, admit to our own craziness.” He says that our humble willingness to be embarrassed by our confusion and mistakes and doubts is key to understanding ourselves. I believe these meditations will be especially useful for you in the coming weeks, Libra. They could lead you to learn and make use of robust new secrets of self-mastery. SCORPIO (Oct. 23Nov. 21): During the next four weeks, there are three activities I suspect you should indulge in at an elevated rate: laughter, dancing, and sex. The astrological omens suggest that these pursuits will bring you even more health benefits than usual. They will not only give your body, mind, and soul the precise exercise they need most; they will also make you smarter and kinder and wilder. Fortunately, the astrological omens also suggest that laughter, dancing, and sex will be even more easily available to you than they normally are.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): The little voices in your head may have laryngitis, but they’re still spouting their cracked advice. Here’s another curiosity: You are extra-attuned to the feelings and thoughts of other people. I’m tempted to speculate that you’re at least temporarily telepathic. There’s a third factor contributing to the riot in your head: People you were close to earlier in your life are showing up to kibitz you in your nightly dreams. In response, I bid you to bark “Enough!” at all these meddlers. You have astrological permission to tell them to pipe down so you can hear yourself think. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Paleontologist Jack Horner says that developmental biologists are halfway toward being able to create a chickenosaurus -- a creature that is genetically a blend of a chicken and a dinosaur. This project is conceivable because there’s an evolutionary link between the ancient reptile and the modern bird. Now is a favorable time for you to contemplate metaphorically similar juxtapositions and combinations, Capricorn. For the foreseeable future, you’ll have extra skill and savvy in the art of amalgamation. AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): “Be stubborn about your goals but flexible about your methods.” That’s the message I saw on a woman’s t-shirt today. It’s the best possible advice for you to hear right now. To further drive home the point, I’ll add a quote from productivity consultant David Allen: “Patience is the calm acceptance that things can happen in a different order than the one you have in mind.” Are you willing to be loyal and true to your high standards, Aquarius, even as you improvise to uphold and fulfill them?

n Feb. 2, the U.S. Attorney for Oregon, Billy “Stop calling me Lando” Williams held a “Marijuana Summit” and invited Gov. Kate Brown, law enforcement, the Internal Revenue Service, regulatory agencies and industry professionals to attend. (The press wasn’t allowed, because fake news, or democracy thrives in darkness, or something.) Major props to Williams for holding it and inviting representation from the cannabis industry. It wasn’t that long ago that such invites simply didn’t happen, and it should be applauded. Williams had called for the summit in an op-ed piece in the Oregonian, in which he addressed the rescinding of the Cole memorandum by Sessions, and ominously declared, “The move gives U.S. Attorneys wide latitude to develop district-specific strategies and deploy department resources without Washington, D.C. artificially declaring some cases off limits.” (Rut ro...) He went on to list some numbers supporting his argument that we have a “massive marijuana overproduction problem” (he’s right, we do—more on that in a second) which results in crime, cartels, diversion to other states, etc. He concluded: “I have significant concerns about the state’s current regulatory framework and the resources allocated to policing marijuana in Oregon.” Southern Oregon is getting the most attention, not only for its prolific production but because a number of people in that part of the state aren’t thrilled with legalization and the perceived impact it has had, or the lack of resources allocated to enforcing regulation. Williams says he wants more data to understand the unregulated marketplace and diversion, and based on statements made in his op-ed announcement, that will include the as-yet unreleased report from the Oregon State Police. Your friendly local dispensary isn’t looking at having its doors kicked in and assets seized, probably, but producers down south are going to get the most scrutiny and possibly action. About that oversupply thing: Does Oregon grow more cannabis than its citizens consume? Yes. That’s been the case for decades. But the Oregon Liquor Control Commission currently does not have a cap on licenses to be issued to growers (producers). And as of Feb. 13, there were 920 active producers, 12 approved but not paid, 567 assigned and 353 ready for assignment. That’s 1,852 commercial producers, not taking into account the four plants each Oregon resident of age may grow, or the 12 plants each medical patient can grow. Putting aside his comments about crime and cartels (although crime is down, and cartels are a boogeyman), the overproduction issue could be addressed on a variety of fronts. The first, and seemingly least likely to happen under our current administration, is rescheduling cannabis from its present standing as Schedule 1. Make it what it truly is—an agricultural product—and allow interstate commerce. There are many states receiving our surplus from which we could be collecting tax revenue on sales, not to mention the family wage jobs it would create. You can buy Oregon wine and beer most anywhere in the U.S.; let’s make it the same for flower and the products it begets. Stepping up enforcement efforts to reduce diversion costs money, so there

exists the possibility of a new tax to fund such efforts. Allocating existing OLCC/Oregon Health Authority revenue to pay for this would be a better call than new taxes. There’s already a heavy tax and fee burden placed upon the industry, slimming or eliminating profit margins. That can drive good people to consider bad choices regarding excess inventory. We could also allow dispensaries to open in “dry counties,” and thus create channels for product to reach new consumers. It makes more sense to shape the response to overproduction by working on solutions that embrace the overwhelming positive aspects that a regulated cannabis industry provides, instead of falling back upon decades-old failed policies of enforcement that penalize, destroy and incarcerate, including disproportionately targeting of people of color. That never worked, and never will. Time for a new plan. Yesterday the Oregon Cannabis Association was invited to participate in, and present at, the United States Attorney’s Cannabis Summit. With a broad range of law enforcement (DEA, FBI, Port of Portland, IRS, District Attorneys and many others) along with United States Attorneys from across the west coast, the Governor’s office, Association of Cities and Counties, OLCC, OHA and other stakeholders, this all-day meeting was the first of its kind. Conceived of, and led by United States Attorney Billy Williams in response to the rescinding of the Cole Memorandum, the meeting appeared to be a step in the right direction toward collaboration in addressing how to approach cannabis regulation and enforcement under the Trump administration. This could have looked a lot different with no seats at the table for the cannabis industry. The OCA’s presentation focused almost entirely on the benefits of cannabis legalization, including jobs, tax revenue, decreased crime and the positive impact legalization has had on the opioid epidemic. Our presentation also acknowledged that the OLCC and OHA both need additional funding, which we will support at the Legislature, and that local governments are continuing to struggle with regulation. We also recognized that there is overproduction in all markets leading to price and market pressure which may result in diversion of product, although that should not be a forgone conclusion. The OCA repeatedly urged the room full of law enforcement to focus on funding agencies and local governments as well as administrative action, instead of charging people with crimes—a vote for 91 was a vote to end the war on drugs as it relates to cannabis. Additionally, we pushed for banking reform and reminded all participants that the way to end concerns over diversion and an illegal market is to end federal prohibition.
