No voting system is perfect
O WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / NOVEMBER 1, 2018 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

n Tuesday, the Deschutes County Sheriff’s Office reported the discovery of a batch of stolen mail on Bureau of Land Management land, including a number of unopened election ballots. For those not in support of vote-by-mail systems, this might seem like ammunition to help their cause. In this case, none of the ballots were opened, leading officials with DCSO to believe the the thieves were not targeting elections mail. Oregon’s vote-by-mail system remains one of the most successful methods of ensuring high voter turnout and discouraging fraud. While it’s obvious from this incident that the system is not foolproof and could be susceptible to fraud, it’s less fallible than, say, electronic systems that could be hacked and manipulated. What’s more, paper ballots ensure there’s a paper trail states can use to verify votes after they’ve been cast. Some warn that voteby-mail is more susceptible to voter fraud, including the threat of having someone besides the intended voter vote in the election, for example. Voter fraud is still “extremely rare” in Oregon, said Secretary of State Dennis Richardson in a press release on voter fraud in 2017. That year, Richardson stated, “The Elections Division identified 46 voters in the November 8, 2016 election who appear to have cast ballots in both Oregon and another state. Also identified were ballots submitted under the names of six deceased Oregon voters and two registered Oregon voters who each cast two ballots in Oregon.” That was a .002 percent rate of voter fraud. In a white paper on the subject, the National Vote at Home Coalition states, “Oregon has mailed-out more than 100 million ballots since 2000, with about a dozen cases of proven fraud.” That amounts to a 0.00000012 percent rate of fraud. In the February report, “Election Security in All 50 States,” issued by the Center for American Progress, the Center rated
each of the 50 states on their overall election security. Oregon received a “B.” No state received an “A.” The Center dinged Oregon not for its vote-by-mail system, but for its post-election procedures. As it states, “post-election audits, which include counting a set, tiered number of ballots, prevent election officials and the public from confirming whether election outcomes are correct.” The Center went on to state, “To improve its overall election security, Oregon should ensure that its post-election audits are robust enough to correct incorrect election results by basing the number of ballots included in a post-election audit on a statistically significant number tied to the specific margin of victory in a given ballot contest. Oregon should also prohibit voters stationed or living overseas from returning voted ballots electronically.” If you’re concerned about Oregon’s potential for voter fraud or election fraud, let those be your worries. But if you don’t get your ballot when everyone else does, that might also warrant a call to the local county clerk to find out what’s up.

AMY LOWES FOR DESCHUTES COUNTY
JAMIE MC-LEOD-SKINNER CAN WIN
Based on data from www.OregonVotes.gov, Jamie McLeod-Skinner can defeat Greg Walden in November’s election for U.S. Congress. The percentage of registered voters in Oregon’s CD-02 is: Republican-34 percent, Non-affiliated-33 percent, Democrat-26 percent, Independent-5 percent,

and other parties-2 percent. In past elections, Greg Walden has garnered, on average, 70 percent of the vote. These results have given some people the impression that a Democratic candidate would not have a snowball’s chance in hell of ever beating Walden. However, when one realizes that 40 percent of the electorate is neither Republican nor Democrat, Greg Walden no longer looks like the obvious winner in November’s election. A coalition of Non-affiliated, Independent, Democratic, and “other party” voters will determine the outcome of November’s election. Many people across Oregon’s CD-02 believe Greg Walden has turned his back on them. He has voted against healthcare programs, for massive tax breaks for the wealthiest 1 percent, against net neutrality, and for slashing the EPA budget. He has refused to talk directly with constituents and has catered to the interests of powerful lobbyists and mega-corporations. Jamie McLeod-Skinner, on the other hand, has talked with people from every part of our congressional district and is committed to addressing their concerns in Congress. As a result of voter dissatisfaction with Greg Walden and voter enthusiasm for Jamie McLeod-Skinner, a coalition of voters will give Jamie McLeod-Skinner the edge in November’s election. Let’s all join together to send Jamie McLeod-Skinner to Washington, D.C. to represent us. She can indeed win. —Mary Love
PLEASE VOTE, BUT NOT FOR ME!
My name is Joshua Langlais and I am one of Bend’s many candidates for mayor. As you may already know, this race is very close. I am keenly aware that there is no chance of my becoming mayor and as voting day approaches, I wanted to caution you that a vote for me is a vote wasted. I entered this race because I hoped to shift the conversation away from esoteric political matters and toward the more social concerns of affordability and living together as a whole and healthy community in which every single voice is
welcome and valued. I believe that I did that. I showed up to every interview and every debate that I was able to attend with transparency and sincerity. My voice was heard and I did indeed change the conversation. In the most ideal of worlds, your vote for me would show that we are fed up with politics as usual and we are ready for big changes. And while I do wish that were the case, that is not the world we live in and a vote for me will essentially be rendered useless. We just can’t afford that. Your vote matters too much. This election matters too much. I don’t want to tell you who to vote for—it isn’t my place and I might not have all that much influence—but I do want you to know that when I cast my vote for Bend’s mayor, it will be for Sally Russell. —Joshua Langlais
LOBBYISTS
Lobbyists for pro-growth forces in Bend have spent over $125,000 to elect two new City Council members to do their bidding at City Hall. Andrew Davis and Sarah McCormick—who have not previously served this city on any notable level—are recipients of this largesse from the Central Oregon Association of Realtors, the Central Oregon Builders Association, and the Chamber of Commerce PAC. Davis has received $43,682 from the real estate lobby; McCormick has received $27,182. The builders lobby has given Davis $14,999 and McCormick $15,022. The Chamber PAC has given $15,000 to Davis and $10,000 to McCormick. That’s $73,681 for Davis and $52,204 for McCormick. And that is just through October 17. These are not democratic organizations where members vote on who to endorse. A handful of board members approve these huge campaign contributions. Davis says he is not beholden to special interests. That’s a laugh. Does he really believe that these three special interests have given him over $73,000 out of the goodness of their hearts? McCormick was the only candidate at the
League of Women Voters forum who didn’t understand one question and then explained that she was “spaced out.” Do you think she’ll be “spaced out” when her benefactors instruct her how to vote? If you want more unaffordable homes and more traffic, vote for Davis and McCormick. If you want the realtors, developers and pro-growth folks at the Chamber of Commerce to run Bend into the ground, vote Davis and McCormick. If, on the other hand, you want City Councilors who are not bought and paid for by special interests and represent you—the people!—vote for Gena Goodman-Campbell and Barb Campbell. No, they are not related. But they do share common values and a vision that reflects the needs of all of us. —Michael Funke
BUEHLER’S FLIP FLOP ON VACCINATIONS
Apparently Dr. Knute Buehler prefers the hypocritical oath to the Hippocratic oath of first do no harm. When he was a legislator, he supported mandatory preventive vaccinations except in cases where a medical condition contraindicated them. Now that he is running for governor, he has stated that parents should be able to opt out of having their children vaccinated to prevent serious illnesses. In so doing, he not only puts those children at risk but also medically fragile individuals in the population. Rather than do no harm, Buehler’s position risks the rise of an epidemic of illnesses that medical science has gone to great lengths to successfully prevent. Though he claims to disagree with Trump, his obvious rejection of and blatant disregard for scientific facts seems quite similar to those of the so-called president. One has to ask themselves if Buehler can be this reckless about something he knows will pose a risk to the people, is this a person we want to entrust with the welfare of the state of Oregon. I think not. —William Brant

Amy Lowes — who is running for Deschutes Country Commissioner, Chair 1 —came here 22 years ago for the same reasons I did on my Harley from Connecticut in 1951, and many of you did earlier and later: the imagnificient beauty, wildlife and recreation recources our county offers. Farmers, ranchers, birders and other conservationists have endorsed Amy for her commitment to preserve our quality of life and to ensure that growth will not destroy or weaken our natural resources. Sure, there will be tough decisions to be made. Like-it-or-not, we're on the precipice of the type of growth that necessitates critical thought and detailed evaluation of the precedents we set in regard to land-use. Amy's committed to making decisions based upon scientific evidence, Loveof-the-Land, and economic impact studies. She knows intensive forethought is vital as it relates to natural resource decisions. Amy's very aware that our present county commissioners have let go of the land-use principles voted for in the '70's: to protect mule deer and elk migration corridors. They were written not just to protect deer and elk — but for all the other wildlife that lives with them — like insects, white-footed mice, sagebrush lizards, song birds and the owls, hawks and kestrels who depend on the entire ecosystem to stay alive. I was a member of the planning commission in the 70's and we spent many days and long hours trying to make sure the wildlife overlay we created would stay in place for years to come. However, our present county commissioners have thrown it to the wind, but Amy says she'll change that, and, by-golly, I believe she will. As a hospice nurse, she advocated for people facing end-of-life crises across Deschutes County, many with very different values, beliefs, income levels, and needs. Her commitments to working collaboratively with people of Deschutes County in their behalf is proven and well established. Amy also has the fiscal and people management skills developed as the owner of a number of small businesses with staffs of over 50 people and complex budgets. She also has the courage to stand up for her ideas and use her collaborative skills to work effectively with city and state officials. But above all, she will uphold the land-use rules already set in motion to maintain and increase the native wildlife habitat so vital to the welfare of all our natural treasures.

Protecting Elders From Abuse Elder Abuse Conference offers info on protecting older people from mental, physical & financial exploitation WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / NOVEMBER 1, 2018 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

By Chris Miller
T
he third annual Elder Abuse Conference is heading to Bend, taking place Nov. 8 and 9 at the Riverhouse on the Deschutes Convention Center. According to the Oregon Department of Justice, fighting elder abuse is a top priority for the DOJ and Oregon Attorney General Ellen Rosenblum. As the population of older residents continues to grow, so do reports of possible elder abuse, DOJ officials say. In 2014, Oregon had over 38,000 cases of reported abuse, according to the Oregon Office of Adult Abuse Prevention and Investigations. The following year, the number grew to 43,000 cases—an increase of 13 percent in one year. The conference is aimed at law enforcement, district attorneys, deputy DAs, U.S. attorneys serving in Oregon, adult protective services, medical professionals and people employed by federal, state or local governments, according to Rosenblum’s office. In 2016, Rosenblum created the Elder Abuse Unit by asking the Legislature to fund one permanent, full-time elder abuse prosecutor and two permanent,
full-time investigators. In October of that year, Rosenblum swore in Dan Norris as the elder abuse prosecutor, who served as the district attorney of Malheur County starting in 2000. “I’m confident these positions will increase Oregon’s capacity to stop elder abuse by providing training, technical assistance and legal expertise to district attorneys, law enforcement and others who work with older Oregonians,” Rosenblum wrote in August 2017. This is not just an Oregon problem. According to the DOJ, financial abuse costs older adults billions of dollars per year. The DOJ said various studies estimate the cost from $2.9 billion per year to many times that estimate. Other Oregon elder DOJ units The Medicaid Fraud Unit investigates and prosecutes Medicaid provider fraud as well as patient abuse or neglect in health care facilities and live-in health care facilities in Oregon. Rosenblum said this unit has a long history of prosecuting people who victimize vulnerable elder and disabled Oregonians.

St. Charles to Close Family Birth Center Facility will close next summer By Chris Miller
S
t. Charles Health System, the largest healthcare provider in Central Oregon, has decided to close its Redmond Family Birthing Center next summer, citing low capacity and volumes that led to staffing changes. “This was not an easy decision to make,” Board Chairman Dan Schuette said in a press release Monday. “But as a health system, we must take into account the needs of our entire region and try to best serve as many people as possible.” “Redmond residents are disheartened to hear that St. Charles has ignored the unified voice of our community in deciding to close FBC is Redmond,” Gary Aguiar, labor relations representative for the Oregon Nurses Association said in an email. “Obviously, nurses— who hold patient care as a sacred trust— are devastated by this loss of service to patients in our area.” Redmond city leaders were opposed to the change. The Redmond City Council read a resolution during its Oct. 23 meeting, encouraging St. Charles to
keep critical services, such as the family birthing center in Redmond. “The City of Redmond, Oregon, strongly encourages the SCMC Board of Directors to keep the Redmond Birthing Center open and operational so as to provide crucial, necessary, and quality services to Redmond residents,” the resolution stated. This isn’t the first time the birthing center was on the chopping block. In 2006, according to the Redmond City Council’s resolution, SCMC—then named Cascade Healthcare Community—considered closing the center, but the board of directors chose to keep it open, citing “an obligation to provide birthing services for the whole region.” St. Charles said another reason for the closure is a shift in demographics. The health system created a task force—a group of providers and community members who spent 10 months evaluating women’s and newborn’s services—who said it found that over the next 25 years there will be an increase in women aged 45 to 65,
reducing the demand for birthing services in the region. According to St. Charles, part of the changes to women’s and newborn’s services will create an obstetric hospitalist program at the Bend hospital to provide care for laboring patients and manage obstetric emergencies, as well as adding midwifery services to Bend. The Madras hospital will receive resources to enhance nursing skill and education. Redmond will remain open to provide prenatal and gynecologic services. Combining birthing services in Bend will make for a more efficient, high-quality care model for our region,” Barbara Newman, medical director at St. Charles Center for Women’s Health in Redmond said. Aguiar offered a different point of view. “Patient volume is unpredictable on a daily basis,” he said. “We know that on several occasions in the last month both Redmond and Bend FBC were at near-capacity. Where will these patients go when we have fewer beds only in Bend? This is a serious crisis for our community. The employer is looking through a narrow
lens of annualized capacity, not our daily ability to handle what walks in the door.” Iman Simmons, chief operating officer at St. Charles said none of the staff would lose their job during the change in operations. She said in the coming months, St. Charles will hire additional staff and began implementation of its plan, and determine the use of the 12-bed facility in Redmond. “We’re going to partner with our caregivers throughout this process to ensure this is an effective transition,” Simmons said. “Working together, we’re going to provide the best care possible for our mothers and babies.” “The employer did not seem to care what our community needs,” Aguiar said. “They used an opaque process, hidden only to insiders, that did not include a single floor nurse. No staff RN who works the floor regularly was included in any of the discussions. No community forum, no engagement with patients or nurses. “Instead, the employer ignores the needs of our community once again,” Aguiar said.

Apparel giant Under Armour sends a cease and desist to a local business By Chris Miller
U
nder Armour, the third-largest sports brand in the U.S., sent a cease and desist order to Bend’s Cascade Armory Oct. 24, claiming Cascade Armory is creating brand confusion and that Under Armour is suffering from it. In its cease and desist letter to Cascade Armory’s attorney, Leigh Gill of Portland’s Immix Law Group, Under Armour wrote, “Your client’s use and application of Cascade Armory constitutes trademark infringement, trademark dilution, and/or unfair completion under federal law and various state laws.” Alex Short started Cascade Armory with his wife, Diana, about five months ago. On the day the trademark was to be approved, Short said Under Armour purchased a window to oppose the trademark—basically allowing for a longer time period for businesses to oppose the trademark. Short said no one from UA contacted him, but when he called to discuss how he could avoid litigation, he said UA put six attorneys on the phone at the same time, and in essence told him to change his name and start over. “It’s going to cost $10,000 just to get to court,” Short said. “It could end up costing us a fortune.” Cascade Armory designs and sells casual clothes including

This is not the first time Under Armour—which took in revenue of nearly $5 billion last year, according to its 2017 annual report—has tangled with other companies with the word armor in its name. In 2015, they took on a Maryland Bible-quoting football champ named Terrance Jackson, according to a story in the Washington Post. Jackson, who was upset that most of the clothing options for his 3-year-old son were covered in skulls and crossbones, decided to start his own “inspirational” apparel company with a scripture-inspired name, Armor & Glory. Under Armour filed a lawsuit stating, “Armor & Glory’s name is likely to cause confusion, mistake and deception as to the two companies’ connection, which would dilute the distinctiveness and further damage and irreparably injure Under Armour’s brand.” Under Armour’s attorneys wrote that Armor & Glory should have to destroy all products, hand over its domain name and any profits, and pay Under Armour’s attorney fees and damages of $100,000 or more, according to the story in the Post.

BACKCOUNTRY 101
Before you veer off from the resorts, here are some things to know about the backcountry By Caitlin Richmond
T
he first time I went backcountry skiing, I didn’t know what I was getting myself into. I knew it would be more work than resort skiing because I had to ski/walk/shuffle or some combination of all three to get myself to the top of the run, but I didn’t realize that getting back down wouldn’t be much easier. I managed to try backcountry skiing a few more times before my ski partner/ husband was laid out for the winter. And now that winter seems like it could hit any day now, I’m itching to get out there again, mostly just so I can tell myself I’ve gotten better since last year. Still, there’s lots to it, and you should take the steps seriously, so you don’t end up a search-and-rescue rescuee. Finding a partner Finding a partner to go out with is a key step, said Alex Taran, a lifelong skier who’s worked as a snow patroller for 10 years, as well as a ski guide for seven years. Taran founded the South American Beacon Project, an organization providing tools and avalanche education in South America. “A backcountry ski partner is something to be selective about,” she explained. “They have your life in their hands. It’s OK if your skill levels aren’t
on the same page, but you want to have the same level of risk tolerance. If you’re not comfortable with the terrain or anything else, don’t be afraid to voice your concerns.” Having a partner who is more experienced than you is also a great way to learn more about technique, conditions or how to streamline your experience. Learning the Gear Skiing is an expensive hobby that can cost thousands to get started, and backcountry skiing is no exception. If you’re a cheapskate like me, you have some options to bring down the costs. “There’s nothing I can think of that you can’t buy used,” Taran said. “You can even buy used long underwear, if you really wanted—just wash them!” Used gear shops are great places to start. Taran also recommends ski swaps. An avalanche beacon, probe and shovel are three things Taran considers non-negotiables. You can buy a beacon used, but Taran recommends checking it to make sure it works before shelling out the cash. The beacon has two settings: transmit and search. While skiing, the beacon is set to transmit. If there’s an avalanche and someone gets buried, switch your beacon to the search function. An avalanche probe is used in conjunction with the beacon to physically check the snow for the buried person. The shovel digs them out. “It’s really important to make sure you’ve practiced using these tools before you go out, because you don’t want to end up in a rescue situation and not know how to use them,” Taran stressed. You’ll need different boots and
Getting prepared Unlike resort skiing, where conditions are easy to figure out and avalanche danger is lessened, conditions in the backcountry can be unpredictable. Taking an avalanche safety course is essential, to learn about appropriate skiing conditions and what to do in case there’s an avalanche. Locally, Oregon Ski Guides, Timberline Mountain Guides, Central Oregon Community College and Three Sisters Backcountry are some spots offering courses on risk management and understanding avalanches, as well as backcountry skills courses that instructors say are crucial for beginners. “There are no experts when it comes to backcountry skiing,” Taran said. “The mountain doesn’t know if you’re an expert and it doesn’t care.”

Beacon to the Backcountry Pete Keane,
"Culturally, in America, we’re sort of a self-made country. Like, Home Depot, do it yourself – everything is do-it-yourself in America, so I think people are a little bit more tentative to use guides because of their egos." —PETE KEANE
Timberline Mountain Guides By Nicole Vulcan
W
hen I meet Pete Keane in the office of Timberline Mountain Guides, he’s pretty clear he doesn’t necessarily want to be there. I don’t take it personally, though, because really, what human can compete with the grace and solitude of the mountains? “I like being out with people and instructing them and being out in the mountains much more than this, being right here at this table,” Keane says, when I ask him about why he does what he does. “I like the aerobic workout,” Keane says. “I love going to the hill, too, and riding lifts and stuff, but (backcountry skiing), it’s more rewarding, it’s more adventurous.” Keane is director of TMG, based in a cottage on the west side of Bend. He’s a member of the instructor pool of the American Mountain Guides Association, the only certification of its kind recognized internationally. The AMGA Mountain Guide certification includes three disciplines: rock climbing, skiing and Alpine mountaineering. As the AMGA states on its website, it’s “the highest level of credential attainable by a professional mountain guide, and is an achievement recognized in more than 20 International Federation of Mountain Guides Associations (IFMGA) member countries.” Having the credential under his belt

allows Keane to travel to other countries and legally guide people on ski tours and backcountry excursions—but it’s not required around these parts. “In the United States you can just say you’re a guide,” Keane says. “You can just hang your sign up and just say it. People should know more that that’s the case. And most people we talk to assume that they (guides) have had some training to say that, but you don’t have to.” Keane hung his own sign up when he moved from New Hampshire to Bend in 1989 and started guiding. He became part owner of TMG in 2000. In 2004, he started going through the process to become an AMGA-certified American Mountain Guide. Summertime finds Keane leading courses and excursions in rock climbing around Smith Rock, with stints climbing elsewhere. This summer, that included a trip to Wyoming’s Teton Range. In winter and spring, he’s all over the place. “In the spring I work for a friend’s company in Washington and Italy and Switzerland, usually, hut-to-hut ski touring in the Alps. And I’m hoping to go to Japan this winter to guide there,” he says. While he might have been slightly joking when he said he didn’t want to be sitting at that table telling me his story, he does admit that the administration side of the business takes up more

of his time these days. Still, Keane estimates he spends anywhere from 120 to 150 days a year skiing. He’s passionate about taking people out of their comfort zones, doing things they wouldn’t normally do. Doing that with a guide, however, is not always second nature for Americans, Keane says. “Culturally, in America, we’re sort of a self-made country. Like, Home Depot, do it yourself – everything is do-it-yourself in America, so I think people are a little bit more tentative to use guides because of their egos,” Keane said. “That’s not present in other countries, especially in Europe, for instance, and so that can be difficult, you know; the person’s ski-ego. I think I heard a quote that says, ‘there’s no room in the average American male’s ego for a ski guide.’” With so many risk factors present in backcountry touring, having a guide has a host of benefits. For the beginner, the benefits include learning when, how and where you can go on any particular day—in addition to what to wear, how to use Alpine touring gear and how to spot potential avalanches. More experienced backcountry enthusiasts also come his way, for other reasons. “Sometimes when people travel here that are good skiers and they’re experienced, they just want to go to the good
skiing—they don’t want to monkey around, figuring it out, what are the avalanche problems, where’s the good conditions, they just want to be like, ‘hey, just take me to the good snow and I’ll be happy.’” As a general rule, Keane recommends people progress from resort skiing to the backcountry by first practicing some off-piste skiing, then attending a backcountry skiing event and doing some touring with someone with experience before moving on to taking a course, such as the Level 1 course offered by the American Institute for Avalanche Research and Education. That’s a lot to take on, in the name of a little snowbound solitude, but for those who are stoked on all things winter, Keane believes it’s worth it. “I would encourage people to try it if they want to see another side of the whole ski industry that’s really cool and adventurous,” Keane said, “and if they’re physically fit and up for learning a few new skills, it’s a great way to exercise as well as have fun and have an adventure.” Timberline Mountain Guides Timberlinemtguides.com 541-312-9242

World Music Rebels
Dirtwire takes musical instruments from all over the world and blends them with electronic beats By Anne Pick
s Bend continues to grow, the city attracts bigger-name performers, as well as more unique talents that may not have come in the past. Fortunately for people in Central Oregon, this area is on Dirtwire’s radar. Fans have the pleasure of welcoming them back to the Volcanic Theatre Pub this week, bringing a blend of world sounds with electronic, funky grooves. Dirtwire includes the talents of David Satori from Beats Antique, Evan Fraser from Bolo and Mark Reveley from Jed and Lucia. Satori and Beats Antique have developed a large following among fans of psychedelic world music. On this Dirtwire side project, Satori takes instruments from around the world and blends them with electronic beats to create something truly unique. Call them cowboys or rebels of the modern music era, combining exotic string sounds with electronic elements and the occasional sound of horse hooves clopping, depending on the song. Adorned in black Western wear, you may be confused by the appearance of this band, thinking you’re seeing a more traditional bluegrass or folk band in the vein of The Dead South. Do not be fooled by appearances; Dirtwire takes the best of Americana and blends it seamlessly with world percussion, soundscapes and electronic beats. The band’s attire may speak to traditional American influences, but listening to the music, you can hear distinct influences from Africa, South America and Asia, bringing the audience to completely new worlds in music. Consider it post-millennial psychedelia performed with a whimsical yet

hard and dark sensibility. Dirtwire plays many songs purely instrumentally, but its members don’t restrict themselves—leaving room for lyrics and singing when appropriate. The band’s most recent album, “Blaze,” stirs up a whirlwind of emotion with lyrical songs such as “No More,” which features the band Moontricks, opening for Dirtwire on this tour. Earlier this year, Dirtwire accepted an invitation to perform at “The Spirit of Astana,” a national world music festival held in Kazakhstan. Located in the futuristic city of Astana, the festival included acts from more than 20 countries, including Iran, Mali, Turkey,
Ireland and Lithuania. Dirtwire was the only band from the United States. The talent buyer for the festival stumbled across them online and liked that they mixed sounds and styles with multiple instruments from around the world. Dirtwire booked a studio for the entire length of its stay in Kazakhstan, in order to record with many of the other artists also performing at the festival. The band plans to release an album of the collaborations as they explore cross-musical fusion throughout Central Asia. Some say Dirtwire is at the forefront of the rebirth of Americana—dressing the part of a renegade country western

Ural Thomas and The Pain bring their brand of soul and R&B revival music to Volcanic Theatre Pub on 11/3.
T
he singers that Portland’s Ural Thomas has counted among his contemporaries reads like the list of Lifetime Achievement Award winners. Thomas first forayed into a career in music back in the 1950s, ‘60s and ‘70s, performing with the likes of Stevie Wonder, Otis Redding and James Brown. After taking a break from professional music, it took him several more decades to release an album. Thomas, a fixture in the Portland music scene, known for his jam sessions, never quit singing and performing. “I started doing things on my own and I shared it with the kids in the neighborhood,” Thomas says. “I was always sitting on the back porch writing, and I bought musical instruments and tables and chairs and we started having jam sessions. My purpose was to let the kids know they could do anything they wanted with their lives, and I wanted to give them direction. Not everyone is a musician, but everyone loves music.” In 2014, drummer Scott Magee approached Thomas about putting together a band and giving his music career another shot. Ural Thomas and The Pain have been performing soul and R&B revival jams ever since, cementing themselves among Portland’s most elite performers. Now, at nearly 80 years old, Thomas and his band are releasing the full-length debut album, “The Right Time” on the Portland-based Tender Loving Empire record label. “It’s been awesome,” Thomas says. “Since we’ve released the album, people will walk up and speak to me and they want to talk to me and shake my hand or invite me to dinner. It’s just awesome. That’s about the best word I can use.” Thomas says he was born into music. His mother performed at church and would play guitar at home. In school, when he had the opportunity to choose an activity, he opted for music at every turn. The way Thomas sees it, music chose him.
“A lot of my songs, throughout my whole life, are based on people and a lot of these things in music express something that is familiar to all our lives,” Thomas says. “For me, I try to touch people in a meaningful way—it’s one of the keys to life, music. When you hear the words, it makes you think about some of the good times and some of the bad times. You can look back and be glad that the bad times are gone. Music is like that, it’s magical. It’s something that touches all of us.” The band’s performance at the Volcanic Theatre Pub Saturday marks the third stop on the band’s tour of the West, which ends in Boise, Idaho, Nov. 20. A touring schedule like that might sound like a lot for a performer nearing his 80s, but for Thomas, he loves the connections he makes. “The communication with people, there’s nothing like it,” Thomas says. “Without the people, it’s just not as much fun. We create amongst ourselves and then we share it with others and we get such good responses.” Thomas’s story about taking another shot at a career in music can be inspirational for other musicians looking to make a mark in the industry. Beyond music, it encourages everyone to live out their dreams. “Take that step and move right in and don’t look back. It’s there. And like I say, ‘God has given gifts to all of us and few will reach out and grab it.’ If it’s music or building a building or whatever it is, just go for it with all that you have—you have nothing to lose when you’re striving to be happy or making someone else happy.” Ural Thomas and The Pain Sat., Nov. 3. 8:30pm Volcanic Theatre Pub 70 SW Century Dr., Bend $12/adv at Bendticket.com

Brought to you by Top Shelf Medicine: Because They Need It “You may have heard about a terrible truck accident on China Hat Road June 8th, 2018. Seven local kids were injured, my daughter Zoey was one of them. She suffered a severely lacerated face, a broken nose, broken feet, and a crushed vertebra. Zoey spent several days in ICU and 14 days total in the hospital, enduring four surgeries, with more to come. Insurance has only covered a small part of the huge medical expenses and we will lose wages while we care for her throughout her extensive physical therapy. It’s difficult for me, but I am writing to ask if you can help cushion the financial blow of these expenses. We will greatly appreciate any amount you can give. Thank you for your support in this effort and for your good thoughts and prayers. An account has been set up through Bank Of America. Deposits may be made to routing #323070380, account #485013809127. We know the Bend community is always eager to help their fellow Bendites and share the love. You can be assured your support will be far-reaching.” —Thank you, Jeremiah Towery

Local dancers join world-class dancers for the classic wintertime ballet By Elizabeth Warnimont
“It’s a really great experience for the kids here to be on stage with a real professional ballet dancer, in a professional performance.” — ELENA PEDAN “I have two days of rehearsal, teaching the choreography for the kids and the (local) dance instructors,” Moscow Ballet auditioner Elena Pedan explains. Her teaching sessions in Bend are recorded so that rehearsals can proceed in alignment with the Moscow Ballet style, while Pedan continues on to other cities on the North America tour. The next time they see each other will be during dress rehearsal. “Then we have the company and the kids rehearse onstage together,” she explains. That’s also when the children receive their costumes—custom tailored in Moscow based on each child’s photograph and measurements. “It’s a really great experience for the kids here to be on stage with a real professional ballet dancer, in a professional performance,” she says.
Students from Bend’s Terpsichorean Dance Studio will wear costumes shipped from Moscow for their performance with the Moscow Ballet Sunday.
Pedan has been dancing professionally for 10 years with ballet companies based in Europe and China. After the North America tour, which consists of 65 to 75 performances in each of three regions across the U.S. and Canada, Pedan will go on to perform Swan Lake in Paris with the Kiev National Opera. “I’m also teaching in Ukraine,” she adds. “I teach master classes, and advanced pointé for the girls who want to go to a professional ballet school.” The ballet company strives to include all interested dance students, though that’s not always possible, according to MB producer Akiva Talmi. “The different roles span a wide range of skill levels. Our audition directors try to find roles for all of the kids. We know how much it means to the children and we love bringing them the opportunity – but it’s not always possible to cast all
children, due to the limited number of costumes available,” he explains. The Dove of Peace production, named for the incorporation of a unique, flying dove, premiered in 2012, on the 20th anniversary tour of the Great Russian Nutcracker. In it, two dancers, each wearing a 10-foot wing, perform together as a single, great flying dove. “The dove is a symbol of purity and peace,” Talmi says, “embraced by Judaism, Christianity and Islam. It is a peace offering between countries in the midst of conflict.” The dove leads heroine Masha and her Nutcracker prince into the Land of Peace and Harmony, traditionally known as the Land of Sweets, in the opening of Act Two. The ballet also features 12-foot-tall puppets, a threepoint Troika sleigh and a Christmas tree that grows to 50-feet tall. The Moscow Ballet used to stop in

Photography Show Explores the Artistry of the Darkroom
Shake That Shadow – COCC student photography exhibit Thurs., Nov. 8-Fri. Dec. 7 Central Oregon Community College Pence Pinckney Gallery 2600 NW College Way, Bend cocc.edu
I
n an ever-growing world of technology that brings new mediums and tools for artists to explore, Central Oregon Community College is still displaying interest in the archival process of photography. Next week, a new exhibit of student work titled “Shake That Shadow” will open at the Pence Pinckney Gallery, showcasing the work of 12 student photographers. Instructor Paula Bullwinkel has been teaching the class for nine years at COCC and says that the interest in learning this process never really dies down. Students even take her class for several terms in order to grow their
Portland, but company leaders say they wanted to reach smaller cities where audiences might otherwise have to travel to see the performances, according to Talmi. “Our tour does include large cities such as L.A., Miami and Boston,” he says, “but many of our dancers feel an affinity for some of the more intimate theaters, such as the Tower in Bend.” The North America tour stops in 41 states in the U.S. and four Canadian provinces. There will be two performances Sunday at the Tower.
A dozen students will display work at COCC’s gallery through November.
skills and continue to explore the process of developing and printing their own work in black and white. Students work with traditional black and white film, printing in a dark room on silver gelatin paper.
The work is wide-ranging, representing the different areas of photography including landscape, cityscapes and still life. Most are created through special processes with toning and experimenting with chemistry to explore the results
of different techniques. When Bullwinkel first started teaching this class, the classes were small, but over time more interest grew. Now with full classes and often a waiting list, Bullwinkel finds her students are excited to learn this medium and explore what they can do with it. “It’s different than digital—it has its own special thing. The students seemed really on board and engaged and intrigued by the art form— which is an art form in itself. People don’t realize that it is still being done and how personal it is. In the darkroom there is all this artistry going on beyond just taking the photo," Bullwinkel said.

MICRO Barrel Season
Deschutes, Crux bring out yearly favorites
39
By Kevin Gifford That’s not all from Bend’s biggest this month, though. Nov. 10 will see the release of The Abyss 2018, Deschutes’ other big yearly launch and a barrel-aged imperial stout that’s won gold at both the Great American Beer Fest and the World Beer Awards. Brewed with black strap molasses and licorice, then 50 percent aged in a mix of bourbon, wine, and new oak barrels, it’s a stout that no one can afford to miss—and much like The Dissident, a few years of aging totally pays off. Still not enough barrel-aged beer? Let Crux come to the rescue. The day before the Abyss launch, the brewery will hold an event to debut the 2018 version of Tough Love, its own imperial stout, in 375ml and 750ml bottles. Master brewer Larry Sidor will be on hand for a toast at 6pm, and vintages from 2017 and 2016 will be available on tap as well. Talk about quite literally rolling out the barrel.

T
ime to clear some space in the ol’ beer shed. Just in time for consistently cold weather, Bendites will get to enjoy not one, not two, but three big-name barrel-aged beer releases in November. Available right now at Deschutes Brewery’s pub on Bond Street is the 2018 version of The Dissident, an “oud bruin” (old brown) ale originating from the Flemish-speaking parts of Belgium. Featuring a long aging process (nearly two years in oak barrels) and a lightly sour taste brought about by wild yeast, the style’s great for chilly days. While most oud bruins from Belgium proper are between 4 and 8 percent alcohol, The Dissident tends to hover around the 10-11 percent range. Adding to the fun, this year features two variations on the traditional Dissident formula, both also available in 500-milliliter bottles locally. One version is aged with marionberries instead of the usual cherries, and the other uses 100 percent Brettanomyces yeast for a bit less alcohol and a whole lot more fruity funkiness. All are great now, but— as proven by the vertical tasting trays Deschutes provided at the pub—store a bottle somewhere for another year or two and the flavors mellow out even further for added complexity.

Michael Myers is not aging very well. No judgment.
W
hen I was in fifth grade, my mom got married to a man with two boys—one my own age and one several years older. We all moved to a big ranch house with a barn and an old Quonset hut filled with bits of scrap metal, broken records and cobwebs. My older step-brother moved out to the Quonset hut, putting up a few plywood walls between him and the disaster of the rest of the hut. One Halloween he spent an entire paycheck buying an authentic Michael Myers mask and mechanic overalls. My older step-brother and I weren’t close—didn’t even like
back into the darkness. When I’d see him next, he’d act like nothing ever happened, like he never silently stalked me across the dirty floor covered in bits of metal and broken records. The new “Halloween” movie isn’t half as scary as what I just described. Myers lumbers around like a murder robot, never making me feel like he was the embodiment of pure evil he’s supposed to be. Nick Castle, who played Michael in the original, is fine but all too human. He doesn’t convey the stillness of Myers’ being as well as he did once before. As fun as it is watching him square off against Jamie Lee Curtis again, their confrontation in 1998’s “Halloween: Myers lumbers around like a murder robot, never H20” was so iconic that this feels like another thin retread. Don’t get me wrong, this is probably the best-made making me feel like he was the embodiment of pure “Halloween” movie since the second one, but there’s no evil he’s supposed to be. fun there—no sense of the unknowable evil Michael Myers represents. He’s just a killer in a mask, no different than each other much, so what came next seemed almost nor- any of the other new slashers produced by Blumhouse over mal at the time. I would be in the house and the phone the last few years. would ring—him calling from the Quonset hut. Michael Myers represents true terror to me; something “Come outside in three minutes,” he’d say, and I knew if felt in my bones since I was a kid. This new film feels more like a way to attract a younger generation to these movI didn’t, he’d just beat me up later.

BAD TIMES AT THE EL ROYALE: With a cast featuring Jeff Bridges, Jon Hamm, Dakota Johnson and Chris Hemsworth and a script from the mind behind “Cabin in the Woods,” this neonoir bloodbath is for those who miss the halcyon days of “Pulp Fiction.” Even with a big letdown of an ending, “El Royale” is still a sinful amount of fun. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX FREE SOLO: A documentary following Alex

downright brilliant novel by Portland-based Patrick deWitt, “The Sisters Brothers” is an episodic and bloody dramedy following John C.

hey don’t put an exact date on when “Mid90s” is set, but based on the music and some of the clothes, I’m guessing it’s either 1994 or 1995. I was 14. The main character in this film that represents Jonah Hill’s filmmaking debut is 13, thus making the movie one of the most personal experiences I’ve ever had watching a movie.
that would make me feel safe and tougher than I knew I was. Sunny discovers weed and booze while I discovered weed and poetry, but the feeling is still there. My only issue with “Mid-90s” is that it’s too short. At 84 minutes, there’s so much more we could have learned about these kids; more layers of their home lives to discover. Someone says one of the kids is being abused, but we never get into it on more than a surface level. It’s nice to It’s nice to see a movie only stick around for 84 see a movie only stick around for only 84 minutes, but just as we begin settling into these characters and this world, minutes, but just as we begin settling into these the film ends. characters and this world, the film ends.

Hockey in Bend: A First-Timer’s Story The new hockey rink is welcoming to all players, from pros to those who’ve never skated
45
By Jaclyn Brandt
I got a penalty last year, but it was really just because I was about to fall and dragged another player down in an attempt to stay on my feet. Bend Park and Recreation District opened The Pavilion in December 2015. Local hockey players had been playing in Sunriver for years, but the new rink meant players could now play on a regulation-size rink—a first for Central Oregon. Today, the ice rink is in high demand, with adult and youth hockey leagues, lessons, curling and figure skating all competing for ice time. The adult hockey league continues to grow. In the first year, there were 16 teams and 225 players. Last year, hockey expanded from three leagues to four, with 20 teams and 303 players. The D League, or Deschutes League, is considered the beginner’s league and is a mix of people from many backgrounds, ages and genders. So far there’s no women’s league in Bend, but dozens of women play at all skill levels and experience. Learning to play hockey As someone who had never skated, learning to play hockey was pretty

hilarious, to say the least. I got a penalty last year, but it was really just because I was about to fall and dragged another player down in an attempt to stay on my feet. You’ll regularly see people using the walls to stop, running into each other and attempting to do something (anything) with the puck. But luckily, we never do any of that quickly. Our league only has two teams, so we played each other every single week. It might sound silly, but we’re all learning. There are different levels of competitiveness on both teams; we have everyone from super competitive to… me. My team included a middle school teacher, a former Indiana speedskating champion, a few guys who had played roller hockey their whole lives but had never been on ice skates, and plenty of others. A lot of parents play when their kids join the leagues.
Beginners are learning to skate at the same time as learning to stick handle, and at the same time as learning to do 20 other things. If you ask most pros, or even the players in the A and B leagues, most will tell you they’ve been playing since they were three years old, or younger. It is not easy to learn as an adult — and you have a lot farther to fall (literally). By the end of the season, I think we had all improved quite a bit. A lot of players will move up to the C league this season, but I’m pretty cozy down in the D League (and hey, maybe I’ll be the best this year! One can hope). The best thing about hockey is the community. I cheer my boyfriend on in the A league. He and his teammates cheer me on in the D league. Silver Moon Brewing is there with a beer cart four nights of the week, and players hang
around and have a beer to watch other games. We cheer each other on, we size up our competition, we talk about how amazing we played, and we make new friends off the ice. The adult league has sold out for hockey this year, but BPRD created a short lunch session league to begin in January. The season is short—because the rink is outdoors—but starts Nov. 26.

he last time I played organized sports, I looked up at the scoreboard at the end of the game and asked my team, “Wait, are we Away or Home?” I clearly wouldn’t consider myself “competitive,” nor would I say I am very “good at sports”—but there’s a place for everyone in Bend hockey. My boyfriend has played his whole life, and as a big fan of the sport, I decided to try my luck at playing.

The Black Widow’s Sister Arrives By Jim Anderson

latrotoxin, which causes the condition known by the medical community as latrodedtism. The symptoms of the bite are often very painful and medical attention is recommended, as complications can arise. Treatment usually involves administering opiates to lessen pain, and benzodiazepines for spasms. Female widow spiders have unusually large venom glands and their bite (not sting) can be particularly harmful to large vertebrates, including humans. However, despite the notoriety, Latrodectus bites are rarely fatal or even produce serious complications, except for infants and older folks (like me). Therefore, in my opinion, their bite constitutes a medical emergency. If you think you have had a bite from a black widow, call 911. Ordinarily, the body mass of a healthy adult is sufficient to dilute the venom to less than a fatal concentration. But then, there’s Murphy’s Law. (I’d better clear up another point. In most species, only the female spider is capable of effectively delivering the venom into humans, as the males have much smaller chelicerae ( jaws) and therefore carry less venom—or the tools to deliver it). In my opinion, it will take several years for the brown widow to become noticeable in Oregon. Like their sisters, they, too, will move into physically darker habitats of human society, i.e., into the darker crawlspaces under our homes, dark basements, pantries, cubby holes and outside in hollow logs and dark wood piles and in abandoned badger holes. They may also compete for space and food, and that’ll be worthy of someone doing a master’s or PhD study to learn what happens. Doubtless, both species will survive, as they are both found in Florida, New York, the Midwest, California and now Oregon. As with all creatures of our area, I’d like to know if you bump into one of the new sisters—in Sisters—in a crawl space under your house, or under the old chicken house when you build a new one. One more tip about where widows go to live. Their

appetite for prey runs from mice, small frogs and salamanders all the way to ants and cockroaches. So here’s a suggestion: Why not leave the harmless house spider to live in the back of your clothes closet and under the bed? They will eat the moths that ruin your clothes and insects that crawl over your face in the middle of the night, forcing the widows and their kin to live under your house and away from making accidental and unexpected contact with you.

et’s begin this story with the high points regarding the spider genus, Latrodectus and the family Theridiidae, most of which are commonly known as widow spiders. (If you visit Africa, however, you’ll find they have the common name of button spiders.) The accompanying drawing by my son Caleb is an African brown widow recently reported by Portland’s KGW news, having been carried into Oregon, probably from California. According to the Oregon Department of Agriculture, the spider was confirmed to have been seen at a property in Oregon City in September. The genus contains 31 recognized species distributed worldwide. In Australia they’re known as redback spiders, but all of them—in one place or another—are known as “widow spiders.” That’s because, long ago, someone noticed that the females sometimes ate the males. In that same topic, male Latrodectids are about one-third the size of the females and get the mating done with as much tenderness as possible, so as not to be eaten. Oh, and one more point: the silk from that genus is the strongest known substance on earth. A structural engineer some time back figured that the Golden Gate Bridge could be supported with strands of black widow silk woven into the size of a pencil… And here’s some good news: all widows can be found living in dark (or shady) places. It’s a general rule that, unlike some human widows, spider widows do not like places with lots of sunlight. They also vary widely in size; some have an abdomen (the back end) the size and shape of, but smaller than, a pea. The widows in warmer parts of the world are about the size and shape of the tip of your little finger, and in most cases, the adult females have a reddish hour-glass mark on the ventral side (bottom) of their abdomen. Yes, they all possess a pretty dangerous venom, as well. (Not “poison;” poison comes from plants, while venom comes from animals.) These small female spiders have an unusually potent venom containing

Hints on buying a home with a history in Oregon
49
ost states require a seller’s property disclosure statement on the condition of a house—but many, including Oregon, do not require disclosure of prior deaths, crimes or other stigmas that might be associated with a home. A spooky or creepy history is important to many people, so how can they find out if the home has a history? Thankfully, the internet has put a lot of this information at our fingertips. The most obvious first approach is to perform an online search of the address of the house. Typically, if there’s been a crime or violent incident, it will have been reported in some media and

picked up by search engines. Another website is diedinhouse.com. Meeting the neighbors is another good way to get information not only about the history of the house, but other valuable information about the neighborhood. While the seller is not required to volunteer such information, if you ask them, they likely will answer truthfully about past history to avoid possible legal liability. If you feel adventurous and don’t care about spooky histories, the upside is that such homes can probably be purchased for a bargain price. Happy Halloween!

A man asked me for my number at an event, saying he wanted to take me to dinner. I told him I’d just ended a relationship and wasn’t ready to date. Of course, he then said it’d be a business dinner, and I consented and wrote my number down. I feel that I had bad boundaries and wish a) he hadn’t been so forward and b) I hadn’t given my number. How could I handle this better in the future? I’m a pretty assertive woman, so my collapsing under pressure was disturbing.

This is like your telling somebody who wants you to dogsit “Sorry, I’m allergic to dogs” and having them come back with “Actually, he identifies as a parrot.” To understand why you—“a pretty assertive woman”—basically defaulted to smileyface emoji mode when the poo emoji better fit the bill, it helps to know a few things about the psychology of personality. There are five major domains of personality that drive how a person acts—and they tend to be fairly stable across time and situations. These include conscientiousness—which reflects a person’s level of self-control and sense of responsibility to others. Another is extroversion—reflecting where a person falls on a spectrum from outgoingness to seeing social events as a form of torture that should have been banned by the Geneva Conventions. Researchers find that women across cultures—whether rating their own personality or being rated by others—consistently come out higher than men in one of these personality domains: “agreeableness.” This is a “nice girl/ nice guy” personality trait that plays out in kindness, generosity, warmth and a strong motivation to have positive interactions with others. It makes sense that women— on average, smaller and weaker than men—would be higher in agreeableness. Psychologist Joyce Benenson, who researches sex differences from infancy on, believes that women’s tendency to default to polite acquiescence in the face of conflict is an evolved tactic to reduce their chances of being physically harmed. As a woman, it’s likely you’re a high scorer in the agreeableness department. However, as anthropologist Jerome Barkow points out, “biology is destiny only if we ignore it.” Recognizing your propensity to be “nice” allows you to preplan to act in your best interest—have prepared
answers for creative pursuers like this guy. For example: 1. You’re not ready to date. 2. You’re happy to take a phone call to see whether there might be a business opportunity. This should help you separate potentially lucrative business propositions from tarted-up versions of “There’s a very important meeting you simply must attend...in my pants.”
Droop-Dead Gorgeous I lost a bunch of weight after a horrible breakup. I’m eating healthful food now—yay. But I’m very aware that I’m one of those flabby skinny people. I used to go to the gym regularly, but I stopped, and now it’s been two years. How can I motivate myself? —Stick Figure
There is an unorthodox but excuse-proof way to get yourself back to the gym: Hire a psychopath to chase you there with an ax. If, however, the psyAmy Alkon chopaths in your area are busy servicing their regular clients, you might try rethinking the power you give your feelings over your behavior. The fact that you have a feeling—“Waah...I don’t wanna go to the gym”—is not reason to listen to it and obey it as if you were its feudal serf. Consider that unless there’s a national disaster or a wizard turns you into a decorative porch owl, you are physically capable of getting to the gym. Make a pledge to yourself that no matter how unmotivated you are to go there, you will just go. This “just do it” method, giving yourself no choice in the matter, is important, because according to studies by psychologist Phillippa Lally and others, repetition leads to habit acquisition. To unpack what this means, behaviors you repeat become automatic—meaning you eventually just do them mindlessly; deciding whether to do them is no longer part of the process. To kick off the campaign for the new gym-going you, do this robo-gymgoing thing every day for two weeks, and then you can pull back to whatever your normal gym schedule would be. Give yourself a sense of accomplishment by monitoring your behavior. Check off days you go work out on a goal attainment app, or just color them in on a calendar. Giving yourself visual evidence of your progress should help you stay motivated during that time period before the physical results start to show. Kind of a bummer when you tell people you’ve been going to the gym and their response is, “And doing 20 sets of I’m not getting out of this car?”

ASTROLOGY By Rob Brezsny tial quality or experience, and its absence makes us feel sad and insufficient. French philosopher Blaise Pascal referred to this emptiness as "a Godshaped hole." Bono adds that "you can never completely fill that hole," but you may find partial fixes through love and sex, creative expression, family, meaningful work, parenting, activism, and spiritual devotion. I bring this to your attention, Taurus, because I have a strong suspicion that in the coming weeks you will have more power to fill your Godshaped hole than you've had in a long time.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Sagittarian
are clichés, right? Ready to wear, one size fits all. I doubt if it's even possible to have an original desire anymore." So says a character in Gemini author Tobias Wolff's short story "Sanity." Your assignment in the coming weeks, Gemini, is to refute and rebel against this notion. The cosmic rhythms will work in your favor to the degree that you cultivate innovative yearnings and unique urges. I hope you'll make it your goal to have the experiences necessary to stir up an outbreak of original desires.
poet Rainer Maria Rilke suggested that we cultivate an alertness for the ever-present possibility of germination and gestation. On a regular basis, he advised, we should send probes down into the darkness, into our unconscious minds, to explore for early signs of awakening. And when we discover the forces of renewal stirring there in the depths, we should be humble and reverent toward them, understanding that they are as-yet beyond the reach of our ability to understand. We shouldn't seek to explain and define them at first, but simply devote ourselves to nurturing them. Everything I just said is your top assignment in the coming weeks.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You're in a phase of your cycle when your influence is at a peak. People are more receptive than usual to your ideas and more likely to want the same things you do. Given these conditions, I think the best information I can offer you is the following meditation by Capricorn activist Martin Luther King Jr. "Power without love is reckless and abusive, and love without power is sentimental and anemic. Power at its best is love implementing the demands of justice, and justice at its best is power correcting everything that stands against love." AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Aquarian environmentalist Edward Abbey spent much of his life rambling around in the great outdoors. He was an emancipated spirit who regarded the natural world as the only church he needed. In an eruption of ecstatic appreciation, he once testified that "Life is a joyous dance through daffodils beneath cerulean blue skies and then, then what? I forget what happens next." And yet the truth is, Abbey was more than a wild-hearted Dionysian explorer in the wilderness. He found the discipline and diligence to write 23 books! I mention this, Aquarius, because now is a perfect time for you to be like the disciplined and diligent and productive version of Abbey. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): For renowned Piscean visual artist Anne Truitt (1921–2004), creating her work was high adventure. She testified that artists like her had "to catapult themselves wholly, without holding back one bit, into a course of action without having any idea where they will end up. They are like riders who gallop into the night, eagerly leaning on their horse's neck, peering into a blinding rain." Whether or not you're an artist, Pisces, I suspect your life in the coming weeks may feel like the process she described. And that's a good thing! A fun thing! Enjoy your ride.
ARIES (March 21-April 19): You have officially arrived at the heart of the most therapeutic phase of your cycle. Congratulations! It's an excellent time to fix what's wrong, hurt, or distorted. You will attract more help than you can imagine if you summon an aggressive approach toward finding antidotes and cures. A good way to set the tone for your aggressive determination to feel better is to heed this advice from poet Maya Angelou: "Take a day to heal from the lies you've told yourself and the ones that have been told to you." TAURUS (April 20-May 20): U2's singer Bono, born under the sign of Taurus, says that all of us suffer from the sense that something's missing from our lives. We imagine that we lack an essen-
51 VOLUME 22 ISSUE 44 / NOVEMBER 1, 2018 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): "Penetralia" is a word that means the innermost or most private parts, the most secret and mysterious places. It's derived from the same Latin term that evolved into the word "penetrate." You Scorpios are of course the zodiac's masters of penetralia. More than any other sign, you're likely to know where the penetralia are, as well as how to get to them and what to do when you get to them. I suspect that this tricky skill will come in extra handy during the coming weeks. I bet your intimate adeptness with penetralia will bring you power, fun, and knowledge.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): "Most of our desires
CANCER (June 21-July 22): If you're a typical member of the Cancerian tribe, you're skilled at responding constructively when things go wrong. Your intelligence rises up hot and strong when you get sick or rejected or burned. But if you're a classic Crab, you have less savvy in dealing with triumphs. You may sputter when faced with splashy joy, smart praise, or lucky breaks. But everything I just said is meant to be a challenge, not a curse. One of the best reasons to study astrology is to be aware of the potential shortcomings of your sign so you can outwit and overcome them. That's why I think that eventually you'll evolve to the point where you won't be a bit flustered when blessings arrive. And the immediate future will bring you excellent opportunities to upgrade your response to good fortune. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): "Each of us needs something of an island in her life," said poet John Keats. "If not an actual island, at least some place, or space in time, in which to be herself, free to cultivate her differences from others." According to my reading of the astrological omens, Leo, you'll be wise to spend extra time on your own island in the next two weeks. Solitude is unlikely to breed unpleasant loneliness, but will instead inspire creative power and evoke inner strength. If you don't have an island yet, go in search! (P.S.: I translated Keats' pronouns into the feminine gender.)
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): I'm rooting for you to engage in experimental intimacy, Virgo. I hope you'll have an affinity for sweet blends and incandescent mixtures and arousing juxtapositions. To get in the right mood for this playful work, you could read love poetry and listen to uplifting songs that potentize your urge to merge. Here are a few lyrical passages to get you warmed up. 1. "Your flesh quivers against mine like moonlight on the sea." —Julio Cortázar 2. "When she smiles like that she is as beautiful as all my secrets. —Anne Carson 3. "My soul is alight with your infinitude of stars . . . The flowers of your garden blossom in my body." —Rabindranath Tagore 4. "I can only find you by looking deeper, that's how love leads us into the world." —Anne Michaels
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Of course I want you to have more money. I'd love for you to buy experiences that expand your mind, deepen your emotional intelligence, and foster your ability to create inspiring forms of togetherness. My soul would celebrate if you got access to new wealth that enabled you to go in quest of spiritual fun and educational adventures. On the other hand, I wouldn't be thrilled about you spending extra cash on trivial desires or fancy junk you don't really need. Here's why I feel this way: to the extent that you seek more money to pursue your most righteous cravings, you're likely to get more money.

Deschutes County Commissioners Vote Emergency Declaration for New Marijuana Regulations WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / NOVEMBER 1, 2018 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE
54
The new rules will go into effect in 30 days
T
he Deschutes County Commission voted on Oct. 24 to approve recreational grow rule changes within the county. Although the commissioners stated the changes were simply to provide clarity, they also declared the changes an emergency. Although a true emergency would put the rules into effect immediately, the commissioners voted to implement the changes in 30 days, which is Nov. 23 — meaning applications under current regulations need to be in by Nov. 21 due to the holiday. Any application received on Nov. 26 or later will be subject to the new rules. The reasoning they gave for the emergency was to have it implemented by the legislative session. Under the amendments, yard setbacks would go from 100 to 150 feet; off-site dwellings would see a setback change from 300 feet to 400 feet; and setbacks from federal public lands are now 300 feet. A property line would now also need to be at least 1,320 feet from buildings like daycares, schools, or many parks. The changes also remove the MUA-10 zone from the rules. Although current growers will not be subject to the new rules, they may be affected if they plan to apply for a new permit on their property — for remodeling or expanding. According to Tanya Saltzman, associate planner with Deschutes County, marijuana operations will go through regular land use approvals if the changes are not related to “the marijuana side of things” — like adding a deck. However, “any expansion related to marijuana would be subject to the new rules. A new production building, for example, would have to go by the new setback standards,” she said. “Where it gets more complicated is if someone were to add onto an existing building, for example, to add more production area, things like the odor control system would be subject to the new regulations, since generally such systems apply to an entire building and it would be difficult to separate the old from new in order to mitigate odor within the same structure.” For Lindsey Pate, owner of Glass House Grown and a representative of the advocacy group, Celebrate Cannabis, the code changes aren’t just restricting business for cannabis growers in the state, they are sending a very strong message that the community is not welcome in Deschutes County. “As a cannabis community, the code changes go against everything we have been working for. We are talking about this overarching process of normalizing,” she said. “So to get these code changes today on an emergency vote
with 30 days, it sends a little bit of a message that the transparent cannabis community is not being supported and we start to lose sight of this common vision of normalizing. And that is felt by our community, certainly.” Before declaring the changes an emergency, the three commissioners discussed what an “emergency” means. Commissioner Tony DeBone was the one who questioned whether it was not a true emergency. He wanted it on the record that, “This is for the political reasons of legislative session. It’s a little different than the health, safety and stabilization of our community; it is very much political.” However, DeBone did end up voting for the emergency, reasoning it would be easier to have in place by the beginning of the legislative session. Pate said growers within the county are feeling like outsiders in that they are jumping through more hoops than other industries. Although cannabis has had different rates of acceptance, even in areas where it is legal, the cannabis community feels it has been especially difficult in Deschutes County. “You can look in many of our other counties that they were quick to educate themselves and quick to adopt workable regulations, and that is part of normalizing,” she said. “That is where we as a community or we as a county have an opportunity to say that ‘our state has voted this in. Our voters are recognizing this as a right that if you are 21 or over, you have.’ And to restrict regulation at the heart of the industry, at the farming of it, to restrict that as a community is a huge step back.” Commissioners Tammy Baney and Phil Henderson both reasoned that an emergency declaration was necessary, simply because they have been working on the changes for an extended period of time. Baney added that she believes the changes strike a good balance that are “essentially good neighbor practices.” And although the commissioners repeatedly said the changes were not a big deal, DeBone did seem to verify that they know how much the rule changes will affect the possibility of new applications — leaving most of the opportunity for existing permit-holders and city farms. “There are other opportunities in Deschutes County; it’s not shutting down an industry,” he said. “There are existing growers; there are existing approvals that don’t have the OLCC licenses, and there are existing opportunities in the rural [areas], but also in the city of Bend and city of La Pine, and the other cities have been discussing it. Sisters is voting on it. It’s not an all-out shutdown of anything.”
