OPINION

Vote Yes on Measure 101

W

hen considering the decision of whether or not to support Measure 101 during this week’s special election, we’d like to point out a statement in a letter to the editor written by Michelle Ganow-Jones, who opposed The Oregonian’s “no” endorsement: “Another headline for this decision could have been, ‘Vote to make the perfect the enemy of the good,’” Ganow-Jones wrote.

Having made the same argument about Measure 97 in November 2016, we couldn’t agree more. Let's not get caught up again waiting for absolute perfection in the realm of politics. This bill will help the people who need health care the most in our state.

As a recap, Measure 101 helps to bridge the gap for Medicaid dollars, brought about by a shortfall in the state budget and cuts at the federal level. Filling that gap means 350,000 low-income Oregonians will likely be able to stay on the Oregon Health Plan, among other benefits. An objective of the original House bill was to maximize potential federal matching dollars for Medicaid in Oregon. HB 2391, approved by a super majority in both the state House and Senate last year, adds, for the next two years, a 1.5 percent “assessment” on premiums received by the Public Employees’ Benefit Board, 1.5 percent on gross premiums earned by insurers and 1.5 percent on gross premiums earned by managed care organizations. Additionally, non-waivered hospitals in Oregon are assessed a 0.7 percent tax on net revenue.

At the same time, the bill would allow insurers to increase premiums by up to 1.5 percent—which could translate into about $5 per month for the average person.

What you’ve just heard is that premiums for some people could go up. But also consider this: The taxes collected through a “yes” vote on Measure 101 also pay for the reinsurance program that allows insurance companies to be partially reimbursed for high-cost care, like cancer treatments. Because 2018 insurance rates have already been set, we already know that the reinsurance program

has made insurance rates 6 percent lower for those buying it on the open market. In other words, there’s an additional upfront cost in order to see savings. By supporting Measure 101, you allow this vital program to continue, and ultimately, to keep costs lower. It must also be noted here that numerous hospitals and health care companies are urging a “yes” vote on Measure 101, because they understand that having uninsured people covered for treatment through Medicaid payments is better than not having those people paid for at all.

Still, some will tell you that the tax is unfair, because it doesn’t impose a tax on the people who are covered by employer health care plans. Sure, it would be great to impose a tax there too—but that’s prohibited at the federal level. While “equity” is certainly a topic we care about, there’s a bigger equity question afoot than the one pitting employer-based health care against those covered by small businesses, nonprofits, school districts or universities—and that’s the equity issue that arises when we allow perfect to be the enemy of good, and to allow 350,000 Oregonians to lose care on account of the failure of Measure 101.

Sure, the Oregon Legislature could spend its upcoming short session working to bring forth a better package that somehow addresses that equity component, presently hamstrung by federal law. Or it could use that time to address the Public Employees Retirement System funding issue, the issue of fully funding the Quality Education Model, and heck, even deciding whether or not we’ll ever be able, as walkers and cyclists, to cross the Deschutes River south of Bend on a pedestrian footbridge. Let the Legislature that so recently—and broadly—approved HB 2391 to fill this health care funding gap for those most in need, spend its time doing other important work.

Vote against making perfect the enemy of good, and vote YES on Measure 101 this week. SW

OPINION Letters

Letter of the week receives $5 to Palate!

OPPOSITION TO MEASURE 101 IS A SCAM

Wolves perform an important function in large wild ecosystems, but it’s wrong to imply that they only prey on the weak and sick. Wolves are opportunists that often kill some of the largest and healthiest animals in a population.

It’s also wrong to accuse sportsmen of “violating healthy selection by killing the best, thus weakening the population.” Well regulated sport hunting restricts the harvest to ensure that the fittest in the population continue to pass on their genes. Since the early 1900s this conservation strategy has saved elk, mule deer, pronghorn, wild sheep, black bear, whitetail deer, wild turkey, moose, and many other species from the brink of extinction. Today, all these populations are heathy, and most are either stable or growing.

It’s encouraging to see wolves expanding their range. They help make wild places more truly wild. But perpetuating the notion that humans are bad for the environment and wolves are good misrepresents the role both species play in nature.

—Ed Putnam

The Big Lie: The people of Oregon decided to weigh in on what had already been passed.

The Hidden Truth: The petition campaign to put Measure 101 on the ballot was organized by politicians whose campaigns are funded by special-interest groups, like pharmaceutical companies, largely responsible for healthcare’s high cost.

The Despicable Lie: This is all about being fair to taxpayers.

The Awful Truth: It is about serving the ambitions of a couple of politicians. It raises Julie Parrish’s profile as a “go-to person” for special interests wanting to bypass the legislative process. It creates financial problems candidate Knute Buehler can blame on Kate Brown.

The Magnificent Lie: Even if it passes, federal agencies could refuse us matching funds.

The Blessed Truth: The federal government already approved those matching funds back in October.

The Believable Lie: If this passes, insurance companies will pass on their 1.5 percent assessment by raising their prices.

The Incredible Truth: If 101 passes, insurance rates will remain stable. If it fails, prices will go up. They are willing to pay this 1.5 percent assessment to insure themselves against having to pay high medical costs they can’t afford. This frees many to offer policies in under-served counties. Oregon’s present reinsurance plan has already lowered insurance rates by 6 percent.

The Simple Lie: If this passes, hospitals will make up for their 0.7 percent assessment by charging patients more.

The Complicated Truth: Hospital charges do not determine what we pay. By cobbling together payments from Medicare, private insurance, and Medicaid, which Measure 101 extends to those who could not, otherwise, afford the care they need, Oregon has been able to stabilize the insurance market and keep medical costs down.

The Horrible Lie: If Measure 101 is defeated, the State will be able to make up loss of funding, so no one will be affected.

The Dismal Truth: There is no Plan B to make up a loss of $5 billion in matching funds. If Measure 101 loses, we all lose.

—Gregg Heacock

ON IMMIGRATION Last week on CNN, a Representative Connelly(D) was interviewed about the DACA program. He defended the legalization of over 800,000 individuals and supported the possibility of them bringing thousands more to the US through chain migration.

Then he was asked about 200,000 Salvadorians who were given temporary sanctuary in the US because of an earthquake that devastated their country a few years ago. He thought they should also be able to stay in the US and be granted citizenship. This is all on top of the 50 or 60,000 Syrians that the Obama administration worked to bring to the US a few years ago.

Unfortunately, there will always be wars and earthquakes and we cannot take in thousands of individuals from overpopulated countries each time they occur. Congressional Democrats and, many Republicans, seem to have no concept that there are ecological limits to how many people can be supported by a particular environment. When the Statue of Liberty was constructed we had a population of 57 million in the US. now, we have over 325 million and are rapidly climbing to 350 million. Overpopulation is clearly the source of most of our environmental problems, including global warming.

When you hear one of our political leaders say “We are a nation of Immigrants,” or “that is not who we are as a nation,” beware, as you can be sure they are looking for ways to add several thousands more to our population, usually to secure more voters for their party, or cheap labor for their contributors.

—Barb Campbell, via bendsource.com The housing crisis in central Oregon is not only a matter of limited building activity.

The regulatory processes of the state and city restrict the supply of available land. However, there are also processes that locals can implement to counter this strait jacket. There are two places that have large residential areas that could stand greater density, but are currently prohibited. Deschutes River Woods and Deschutes Junction could vote to become cities. The change in zoning may allow for ADUs immediately and much higher density when a sewer system is installed. This could stabilize the supply of available land. Even if this political move proved unsuccessful, it would demonstrate to the state that their regulations are choking the low income residents of Bend and we’re serious about doing something about it.

Tobacco 21

Minimum age for tobacco increases, to only slight fanfare

7

Source Staff

R

emember the ol’ adage, “Old enough to fight and vote, old enough to drink and smoke?”

Nah, not really.

As of this year, those under 21 can still make life and death choices or vote for presidents, but they can’t buy smokes.

Recent statistics by the Oregon Health Authority and the National Youth Tobacco Survey show an increase in both adolescent smoking and a rise of premature deaths in Oregon. But a new law, effective Jan. 1, bans the sales of tobacco-related products to those under the age of 21. That includes vaping.

With the move, Oregon becomes the fifth state in the U.S. to raise its minimum age from 18 to 21—even though the health warnings about smoking from the U.S. Surgeon General began nearly 30 years ago. The OHA reports that 90 percent of long-term smokers begin by the age of 18. Tobacco is also the number-one cause of preventable death in Oregon, with 7,000 annual deaths in the state alone and more than 500,000 national deaths per year, according to the OHA. Advocates hope that by raising the legal age of tobacco to 21, it will delay chronic use and curb the rate of cancers and diseases.

“Nine out of 10 adults report they started smoking before they are 19 and nearly 100 percent start before the age of 26,” said Oregon State Epidemiologist and State Health Officer, Dr. Katrina Hedber. “The earlier kids start using tobacco, the more at risk they are for becoming addicted to tobacco and developing chronic disease such as heart diseases, asthma and cancer.

“Raising the legal sale age for tobacco products to 21 can reduce smoking rates and reduce tobacco-related death,” she concluded.

A mellow rollout in Central Oregon Sanji Gupta, who works at the 76 station in Madras, said the transition to Tobacco 21 has been “relatively easy.” Though she’s had to turn down a few sales, the long transition period for the new law has enabled most consumers between 18 to 21 ample time to get informed. The law was officially signed by Gov. Kate Brown Aug. 9.

Bright, shiny stickers announcing the increase were visible in all of the retailers the Source Weekly visited throughout Central Oregon, with most retailers reporting no big changes.

“I think it was probably a case of one kid blasting it on social media or Snapchat or whatever whenever it went down, and so everyone’s kind of scared of asking for it until the media calms down about it,” said Anthony R (who asked to have his last name withheld), who works for a local retailer on Bend’s west

Justine Rhoads stands in front of the cigarette display at the Bond Street Market, Tuesday, Jan. 16. Although the new smoking age took effect Jan. 1, Rhoads said the Oregon Health Authority sent out a sell-by calendar that still show 18 years of age as the sell-to date. Rhoads said only out-of-state teens had attempted to buy tobacco.

The OHA reports that 90 percent of long-term smokers begin by the age of 18.

side. “I’m sure once the media attention dies down, we’ll probably have some kids try and buy it.”

First time offenses are $50 for clerks caught selling tobacco to minors, and $250 for managers. Those fines increase with each infraction, and can reach $500 and $1,000, respectively.

Slowing tobacco usage The rate at which Americans consume tobacco has been—overall— steadily dropping. OHA estimates that only one-sixth of adults smoke regularly, a more than 50 percent drop over 50 years.

Interestingly, heavy taxation of tobacco, the amount of which varies from state to state, could ostensibly de-incentivize states from raising minimum ages, since it would curb tobacco taxes. The federal tax on a package of cigarettes is $1. Oregon’s is below the national average of $1.72, at $1.33 per pack. By contrast, New York’s state tobacco tax rate is $4.35.

Still, youth tobacco rates are on the rise, with the National Youth Tobacco Survey

reporting that in 2014, overall tobacco use among teens grew. The nonprofit attributes it to the rise and accessibility of electronic cigarettes, otherwise known as vape pens, which some experts say give the impression as being “less harmful.” In additional, small cigars, hookah water pipes and tobacco flavoring have all leant to the increase.

At Deschutes County Behavioral Health, experts there say there’s no “one magic bullet” to preventing tobacco use among teenagers; however, raising the age is one start. Also helpful: increased taxes, counter marketing, school programs and increased awareness of cancer and lung disease risks.

Momentum has been growing since 2013.

New York and Hawaii were the first states to officially increase the age to purchase tobacco. Combined with a local excise tax, a pack of cigarettes in New York City can cost upward of $13. The same pack in Kentucky, with fewer taxes, costs about $4.77. Kentucky also has the highest smoking rate in the nation, at 26 percent, according to the Truth Initiative. SW

Regardless of how you view the events of Jan. 20, 2017, below is a bunch of stuff you’d do well to be paying attention to, since that fateful day.

Here, local experts remind us that sh*t’s always been real.

More Than a Hashtag

The #MeToo movement is calling us all to account

BY DENISE BESTWICK SAVING GRACE BOARD PRESIDENT

T

he past year shined a light into many dark corners of our society, revealing both the ugliness hiding there and the strength of those willing to uphold the light of truth. As men accused of sexual harassment and assault both rose to power and fell from grace, we witnessed the incredible impact of survivors speaking out and saying, “It happened to me, too.”

We were reminded that abuse of power is not a partisan issue, that handsy bosses are not just a Hollywood problem and that sexual violence impacts people of all genders—but most often women.

When activist Tarana Burke first started promoting “Me too” in 2007 to let survivors of sexual assault—particularly women and girls of color—know they’re not alone, Twitter was just being born and viral hashtags were still a thing of the future.

A decade later, actress Alyssa Milano thrust the phrase into the Twittersphere, opening the floodgates to a torrent of women and men joining the “Me too” chorus. It wasn’t the first time a hashtag sought to call attention to the problems of sexual and domestic violence. But the response feels new.

While hashtags come and go, #MeToo has sparked a growing movement to support survivors and hold abusers and harassers accountable.

More than a rallying cry, the call-and-response of survivors testifying and people believing them is creating real cultural change. It’s the kind of change that can only come from the grassroots of society. It’s the kind of change that requires all of us to participate in and create.

It’s also the kind of change we’re seeing reverberate from November’s Little Stone Project, which inspired Central Oregonians to use

their talents to become a “little stone” for social change, particularly change that improves the lives of women.

It has also inspired important conversations about how real cultural change needs “good” men to engage and use their privilege to help stop the abuse of power. Because, while the weapon of sexual violence can be wielded by and against people of all genders, most perpetrators are men, even when the victims are, too.

That’s why organizations like Saving Grace are creating spaces for men and others to talk about their role in creating and upholding a culture that does not condone harassment, abuse and violence. Every month, under the banner of Central Oregon Men Against Violence, men in our community meet to talk about masculinity, violence prevention and how to lead by example.

The #MeToo movement is another reminder that sexual assault and domestic violence are community issues. Chances are good that either you or someone you know has been affected personally. Saving Grace has been supporting survivors in Central Oregon for over 40 years. #MeToo has broken the silence and Saving Grace is here to provide safe spaces for survivors to share their stories, when they’re ready. Together, as a community, we can support people to let them know they are not alone. Together we can shed light on the issues that need to be discussed openly and respectfully. Together we can listen, we can believe and we can support victims and help them to feel like survivors.

Let us all choose to focus on the points of light piercing through the darkness, and to commit to shining ever brighter until the perpetrators of violence and hate realize that #TimesUp. SW

Health Care: The Push for a Better Way

BY DAVID STRANAHAN HEALTH CARE FOR ALL OREGON

I

The battle lines in 2018 are being drawn, and achieving health care for everyone will be at the top of the agenda at every level. Bernie Sanders gave us such a gift in introducing the Improved Medicare for All Act last fall. His efforts have been distorted and trolled, but there’s no going back from the articulate challenge he laid down. The next time you call Rep. Greg Walden’s Washington, DC, office (at 202-225-6730) invite him to come in person—and often—to your 2nd District to talk about how he will ensure better care for everyone, where no one faces bankruptcy from medical bills.

The Health Care for All Oregon Coalition (HCAO.org), of which I have been a part for eight years, has gone steadily ahead in laying the groundwork for a ballot measure in 2020 that will establish a single-payer health insurance system for Oregon. (It’s essentially the same thing as Medicare for All.) At least 16 other states are on the same trajectory with the same goal. And they’re working together.

In laying the groundwork, HCAO has introduced the “Affordable Health Care as a Fundamental Right” bill in the upcoming legislative session. Next time you call your local legislator, tell them you support Rep. Mitch Greenlick’s Bill, LC46. HCAO has recently achieved another long-term goal in establishing a Universal Access to Health Care Legislative Working Group to create the legislative strategy toward universal care.

There are a lot of battles to be won as we get from here to 2020. Right now, we have to ensure we don’t have to respond to the pointless destructiveness of a NO outcome on Measure 101. That would take us backwards in many ways.

Welcome to Campaign 2018. We’re still in Oregon. Keep your eyes on the prize! SW

Public Lands: Shrinkage, Development and De-funding

BY GENA GOODMAN-CAMPBELL PUBLIC LANDS COORDINATOR, OREGON NATURAL DESERT ASSOCIATION

O

f the many bad ideas that gained traction in 2016, privatizing public lands is one of the most radical and lacking in public support. Republicans and Democrats alike use and enjoy public lands, and Americans overwhelmingly oppose removing land from public ownership by selling it off or handing it over to individual states to manage.

While we are distracted by the latest offensive tweet, the Trump Administration and Congress are pursuing an insidious agenda to take public lands away from the people—though not necessarily through privatization. The apparent goal of their agenda is public ownership in name only, with private industry controlling the oil and gas, minerals, trees, grass and water on our public lands.

Under the guise of giving more control to state or local governments, the administration has made significant changes in pursuit of their radical agenda. Here are a few changes that could put public lands in Oregon at risk.

Removing Obstacles to Development In October, the administration announced its intention to roll back protections for Greater sage-grouse, a species synonymous with Oregon’s high desert. The 2015 sage-grouse plans were the result of over five years of collaboration at the state and local level to protect the bird from extinction. These plans protect not just sage-grouse, but 350 other species and their habitat— on millions of acres of public lands. While the administration’s actions stand to directly imperil sage-grouse, they will also open up sensitive public lands to mining, oil and gas and other development.

Monumental Shrinkage You’ve probably heard about the Trump Administration’s review of national monuments and the “shrinkage proclamation” that stripped

protection from public lands in Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monuments in Utah. Cascade-Siskiyou National Monument in Southern Oregon could be next. In this case, you can be sure the Trump administration won’t be listening to all voices; with the exception of Rep. Greg Walden (R-Hood River), Oregon’s leaders have spoken out definitively against removing protections from Cascade-Siskiyou. Here, the logging industry would be the clear winner, while the local governments and businesses that value the monument for its rich biodiversity and recreational opportunities stand to lose out.

Defunding public lands Public lands agencies such as the U.S. Forest Service, Bureau of Land Management and the National Park Service are facing major budget cuts under the Trump Administration. These cuts will ensure that the people who take care of public lands will not be able to do essential work like maintaining trails and campgrounds, fighting fires and enforcing laws. Defunding public lands fits squarely into the broader anti-government agenda and aims to erode faith in the government’s ability to care for our public lands, making the administration’s narrative about giving control “back to the states” more appealing.

Protecting our public lands now These changes stand to impact everyone who enjoys public lands, because when industry controls public lands, people get locked out. As the administration proceeds with its agenda, how will the public respond?

We can’t afford to merely complain meekly and lose faith in public land managers. Instead Americans of all backgrounds must question the intentions behind the administration’s decisions, speak up when decisions fail to serve the public interest and help ensure that understaffed agencies take care of our land through advocacy and volunteerism—and at the polls. SW

9 VOLUME 22 ISSUE 03 / January 18, 2018 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

n my admittedly overactive imagination, I picture the residents of most of Europe and much of the rest of the world regarding the past year in American politics with bewilderment, amazement and outright concern, as the individual occupying our Oval Office speaks and acts repeatedly against the best interests of most of those inside and outside our borders. The list of concerns is increasingly long and beyond my cataloging completely, but if it only included abandonment of efforts to address climate change, that would be enough to demand our full attention.

But I also imagine the citizens of the rest of the developed world feeling a little smug in witnessing the embarrassing, regressive battle over health care “reform” that took place in the early months of the Trump administration. None of them could be blamed for thinking, “Those Americans can’t seem to figure out how to provide affordable, good-quality health care to everyone. We’ve been there, done that.”

It’s easy to initiate the health-care-for-all conversation at home these days. Inevitably it includes someone saying, “How come we can’t just cover everyone with health insurance like they do in the other civilized countries?” Good question.

With regard to the criteria for this collection of essays, I don’t feel that those of us in the Health Care for All movement have lost sight of, or have been distracted from our larger goal—although the distractions have been constant and, I think, intentional. Locally and nationally, we have taken a backseat to, and have been overshadowed by, attacks on reproductive health, immigrants, public lands, public education, net neutrality, ballot access, fair taxation, transparent government and professional athletes(!). And of course, the loudest voices in response have to be for climate stability.

State Budget:

Good on transportation; PERS and Education Funding Still Hang in the Balance

BY JUDY STIEGLER

W

The Legislature was unsuccessful in efforts to reform Oregon’s tax system, or to make serious progress in addressing the costs of Oregon’s Public Employees Retirement System. With respect to the health care package, several of the revenue raising-provisions have been challenged through the citizen referendum, Measure 101. If these provisions are overturned by the voters, the Legislature will be forced to deal with the deficit that would be created in health care funding—handling it in the 2018 Legislative Session in February, which lasts only about 45 days.

In addition to these areas of economic consequence, there is the ever-present issue of underfunding public education in all respects.

On the higher education end, funding at a level less than requested resulted in increased tuition at some institutions, and a paring down of the relatively new Oregon Promise Program at the state’s community colleges. On the K-12 end, though the budget which passed was an increase, it was less than requested and will result in teacher shortages and cutbacks. Additionally, this funding is nowhere near the $9.97 billion called for in Oregon’s Quality Education Model for this biennium.

In the two decades in which the legislatively mandated QEM has existed, the funding level recommended has never been met.

These are just a handful of examples to illustrate the budgetary and financial issues within our state government which have the potential to impact thousands of lives. It’s here that we should be focusing our collective attention, rather than wasting it on the antics of the “man at the top.” SW

The Trump Year: An Accountant’s Perspective

BY CHRIS TELFER, CPA, PARTNER SPECTRUM CPA GROUP LLP

T

he year 2017 has been full of political vitriol on both sides of the aisle, Democrat and Republican alike, with the media hyper-echoing the differences. All of this political confusion and chaos has created such a din that developments which likely impact us more directly largely go underreported or unnoticed. The economy is humming along; according to Bankrate, Gross Domestic Product grew, on average, 3.1 percent during 2017. Unemployment is down, the stock market is up, and economists quoted in The Wall Street Journal are forecasting 2018 will see solid growth and a continued decline in the jobless rate. Yet, most of this good news is lost in the noise of the daily news cycle.

Can the man on the street expect an improved economy in 2018?

And, if so, why?

One big factor in expectations for 2018 is what occurred in December: Passage of The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017. TCJA has been characterized by Sen. Nancy Pelosi as “the worst bill to ever be passed in the U.S. Congress,” while Sen. Chuck Schumer flatly stated that it “helps the rich at the expense of the middle class.”

Who’s right: the economists, or Pelosi and Schumer? What does the TCJA do or not do for middle America?

The TCJA is historic; it’s the largest corporate tax cut in U.S. history.

Corporations are winners under TCJA. And, if you buy in to the argument that TCJA will incentivize corporate America to expand domestic production, and companies will be inclined to return operations to the U.S. from overseas, TCJA should cause a rise in the demand for labor… in turn, causing increased wages to low- and middle-income Americans.

But, beyond arguably improving the economy in general, what are those elements of TCJA that will impact individual income taxpayers?

The following are some, but certainly not all, of the highlights of TCJA impacting both you and me beginning in 2018.

However, make no mistake, while touted as tax simplification by

the Republicans, it’s not.

Tax rates. The new law keeps seven brackets; but, all but two brackets are lowered, with the top rate reduced from 39.6 percent to 37 percent.

Standard deduction. Increases to $24,000 for joint filers, $18,000 for heads of household, and $12,000 for singles and married taxpayers filing separately. Many taxpayers will no longer be itemizing deductions.

Exemptions. TCJA suspends the deduction for personal exemptions until 2026.

Child and family tax credit. TCJA increases the credit to $2,000 from $1,000 and increases the refundable portion to $1,400. The credit begins phasing out at $200,000 ($400,000 for joint filers).

Medical expenses. Amounts exceeding 7.5 percent of a taxpayer’s adjusted gross income are deductible.

State and local taxes. Limited to a total of $10,000.

Mortgage interest. Deductible only on the first $750,000 in mortgage debt (down from $1 million). Eliminates the deduction for interest on home equity loans.

Miscellaneous itemized deductions. Deductions such as tax preparation fees, investment-related fees, union dues and employee business expenses are eliminated.

Small business. Generally, a winner under TCJA. Acceleration of depreciation deductions. Expansion of the cash basis of accounting.

Creation of a new deduction equal to 20 percent of “qualified business income” (only relates to income passed through to the taxpayer from partnerships, S corporations, LLCs and proprietorships). Because of its complexity in application, this deduction is one you should discuss with your tax preparer!

So, who does win and who loses under TCJA? The answer is, it depends. Many of us will have to wait until we file our 2018 tax returns to find out. SW

11 VOLUME 22 ISSUE 03 / January 18, 2018 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

e’re experiencing a phenomenon in our civic and social culture these days, in which our primary focus is on the words and actions of one person, President Donald J. Trump. Whether it’s in print, television or online media, social media—or even person-to-person conversations, the topic of Trump always seems to raise its head! That one man commands such focus is perplexing, to say the least. I’m sure there’s a psychological explanation, but one thing is certain: this focus is misplaced and potentially detrimental to our civic health and well-being.

There are many more crucial issues for us to be focused on here at home, such as Oregon’s finances and budget.

The 2017 Oregon Legislative Session saw the passage of significant financial measures. A major accomplishment was the bipartisan, $5.3 billion transportation package, resulting from significant compromise, both on the revenue side and on the substantive aspects of the package. The package will have significant beneficial impact on infrastructure all across Oregon. The Legislature also made a commitment to cut government spending over the next two years, by $200 million. Another measure passed was Cover All Kids, potentially extending health care to an additional 17,600 children in Oregon. The Oregon Health Plan got a major boost in the passage of a funding plan to ensure continued coverage for Medicaid to the approximately 350,000 Oregonians brought into the program over the past few years. And the K-12 budget passed was $8.2 billion, an 11 percent increase from the previous two-year budget.

With all of these “successes,” however, there’s still uncertainty and work to do.

Standing the Test of Time

Grammy Winner Marc Cohn discusses the longevity of “Walking in Memphis” and songs with staying power

By Anne Pick

Y

ou’ve definitely heard Marc Cohn’s most famous song.

“Then I’m walking in Memphis / Walking with my feet 10 feet off of Beale / Walking in Memphis / But do I really feel the way I feel?”

Since its release in 1991, Cohn’s song has stood the test of time. In fact, two years ago, Cohn built a whole tour around performing his debut album in its entirety. The album also featured songs such as “True Companion.” This week, Cohn offered the Source Weekly some insight into why “Walking in Memphis” remains his most popular song to this day.

“I think it’s a well-written song,” Cohn says. “It’s about the power of music.

Somewhat about a spiritual awakening.

I think mentioning Elvis doesn’t hurt. I know when I wrote it that it would have some staying power; it was different and funny and mysterious. A lot of people still don’t know what that means.”

There isn’t a formula to writing a song that stands the test of time, though some pop music writers may disagree.

According to Cohn, longevity lies in a combination of things—everything from timing to what else is on the radio.

Back in ‘91, the latter had a big effect, but Cohn questions the necessity of what else is on the radio.

“There are so many ways you can get your artistic vision across,” he says.

Cohn released his latest album in 2016. “Careful What You Dream: Lost Songs and Rarities” features songs he’d admittedly forgotten about, even before “Walking in Memphis” and his self-titled debut album came out.

“I made that into a double CD set,” Cohn says. “Just listening back to them has been pretty inspiring and interesting. I was finding my songwriting voice.”

Cohn hasn’t been sitting idle since 2016, either. He co-wrote a song with David Crosby for his upcoming new record, and co-wrote three songs with the Blind Boys of Alabama, who accompany him on his current tour. One of those songs earned a Grammy nomination—something to which he’s no stranger. Cohn picked one up for Best New Artist back in 1991, alongside other nominations for “Walking in Memphis.”

Fans will also be excited to learn he’s working on his next new album and is about three songs deep.

As for touring, what does Cohn love the most?

“The two hours on stage. The other 22 hours can be difficult,” Cohn says.

“Traveling is hard, going from place to place. It’s an interesting life, but I’m holding up pretty well.” SW

WELLNESS WEEK WHAT IS WELLNESS, ANYWAY— AND WHY DO WE SEEK IT?

If you ask us, the week during which we’ve paused to honor the great vision of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. is an ideal time to discuss wellness, and how it fits into the grander scheme.

The journey toward wellness, at its core, is the work we do to repair, refine and enhance ourselves. It’s a service to ourselves—but taking inspiration from Dr. King, it shouldn’t be done only just for ourselves.

The great work we do inside ourselves should ultimately be in service to, and in acknowledgement of, the great work necessary outside ourselves.

In other words, do wellness is not just for wellness’ sake, but for the sake of healing everywhere. And we’re guessing most of you, dear Source readers, can understand the need for healing—locally, nationally, planetarily…

The business owners—and their hardworking employees—listed in this Winter Wellness Guide understand that, and work to bring you their own form of wellness every day. We hope these pages help you find the right form of wellness for you.

So be well, in order to go out and serve the greater good.

Nicole Vulcan, Editor

“It really boils down to this: that all life is interrelated. We are all caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied into a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one destiny, affects all indirectly.”

WELLNESS WEEK

THE SOUL

OF A PLANT

ESSENTIAL OILS: A NATURAL APPROACH TO LIVING HEALTHIER

BY AN NETTE BENEDETT I

F

or many people, health is a top priority. If you’re looking for natural and no-stress ways to care for your whole family’s health, it’s worthwhile to look into the use of essential oils.

An essential oil is the liquid distilled from a plant, resulting in a super concentrate. Angelina Swanson, founder and creative director of Angelina Organic Skincare, says they’re sometimes referred to as the soul of a plant.

“Essential oils are generally steam-extracted from the plant, except for citrus oils which are cold pressed from the fruit rind,” Swanson explains.

Used therapeutically, essential oils are used two ways: One, through inhalation in the form of aromatherapy, secondly, used topically in body products.

According to Swanson, essential oils are readily absorbed into skin and mucous membranes (lungs and nasal passage). She says, “When you breathe them in, the scent bypasses your conscious brain and goes right into your primitive brain and triggers memory recall. If you have a pleasant association with a scent you are going to feel nice when you smell it.” But that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Essential oils are thought to have a strong effect on the nervous system as well, and may have the ability to solve common ailments.

Lavender and chamomile essential oils are thought to bring about a calming effect. Peppermint is known to be stimulating, helping with headaches and calming nausea without extra medication. For help with premenstrual syndrome, wellness experts often recommend geranium oil and clary sage oil to help soothe and bring balance.

On her website, angelinaskincare. com, Swanson offers suggestions for creating DIY essential oil blends, recommending several oil combinations used to acquire desired effects.

Some of her recommendations: For relief from sore muscles, try two drops of fresh ginger combined with two drops of black pepper, four drops of peppermint and five drops of eucalyptus.

Sinus pain? Combine eight drops of eucalyptus with four drops of

peppermint and two drops of cypress for relief. The uses for essential oils goes on and on. Swanson also recommends a combo created for chasing the blues away, and another meant to help you get back that lovin’ feeling for your partner.

Since putting essential oils directly on the skin (without using a carrier oil or other product) is not recommended, the distribution of the oils can happen a couple of different ways. Add oils to a steam diffuser, put them in a spray bottle (add 60 drops or so to 4 ounces of water), use them topically (10 to 15 drops in a carrier oil such as Jojoba or coconut) or add them to a cleaning solution (add about 20 drops to ¼ cup of unscented cleaner).

While inhaling is the strongest and most potent way to get a response from the body, when used topically on the skin, oils can also have very different effects. Some oils can soothe skin problems such as eczema. Swanson says that there are also oils shown to have anti-tumor effects. “We are working with the cancer center at St. Charles…on a product that is really calming for skin that has been radiated,” says Swanson.

While essential oils can also be ingested, Swanson doesn’t recommend it. “There are two reasons I don’t suggest ingesting essential oils. The first is there are a couple that can kill children.

Wintergreen, for example—if a child takes a half an ounce of wintergreen essential oil they are going to die. You have to be really careful because they can be highly toxic,” says Swanson.

With the endless number of essential oils stacked on shelves at local shops, it can be difficult to know where to start.

Swanson suggests picking up the following books: “Essential Oils for Beginners: The Guide to Get Started with Essential Oils,” from Althea Press and “The Complete Book of Essential Oils & Aromatherapy,” by Valerie Ann Worwood.

The practice of using essential oils may take some research and even a little trial and error, but it’s worth the time and effort for those interested in living a cleaner, healthier and more natural lifestyle.

WELLNESS WEEK

AND I’D DO IT

ALL OVER AGAIN

A FEW TRIPS TO A DEVELOPING COUNTRY, AND A CLEANSING JOURNEY

BY N I CO LE VULCAN

The cleanse was awful. And I’d do it all over again. ost of us spend our lives staving off one calamity or the other… and that brings inevitable effects of stress, weight gain, indigestion, irritability, and even chronic disease and cancer. The incredible thing about the human body: be mean to it and it sends signals. Be nice to it and it usually responds in kind. Probably like you, I’ve tried various methods to mitigate the effects of all that calamity-hopping. This is one of my “wellness journey” tales.

M

Ayiti Cherie

It was 2010 and the massive 7.0 earthquake had just hit the south of Haiti. I joined a video project documenting relief efforts in the wider reaches of the country. I didn’t initially go to serve, but to observe—and yet, not serving was not an option.

There I was, shoveling construction debris and livestock offal and shit in the market of Limbe, in the northern part of the country. While away from the earthquake zone, things like trash service, schools and government were still on hold country-wide.

People had dumped trash in the marketplace for weeks, with no service on the horizon. Limbe-born Rosedanie Cadet, leader of the group I documented, arranged a garbage truck, and we shoveled that stuff in.

At the end of a hard-fought day, I passed out. Lights out, on the street. I didn’t really stop though—not until three trips to Haiti and back, when I found myself in a health crisis, brought on by stress, travel and lack of rest.

SAD!

Let’s pause here to note this crisis was not necessarily about traveling to a developing nation—one some might erroneously call a “shithole” country. Yes, there was an emotional and physical toll to being in an earthquake-ravaged country with foreign-to-me bacteria and viruses. As far as diet though, Haiti’s food was incredible. Meals involved fresh vegetables, eggs and other delights from the gardens of my hosts—far from the Standard American Diet some believe is the root of much ill health.

SAD, as it’s often called, involves too many breads and simple sugars; not enough fresh foods and too many processed ones.

(I would be remiss in not mentioning that many Haitians, too, live on a version of SAD; limited means forcing them to subsist on starches such as manioc, or cassava.) At home in Oregon, more of a SAD diet, coupled with a heavy workload, brought on general ill health. Coincidentally, I was working a PR job for a naturopathic clinic at the same time.

The Elimination Diet

The docs put me on an elimination diet—pretty standard protocol for naturopaths identifying the trigger foods causing, or adding to, crises. As its name suggests, it involves eliminating foods that commonly cause irritation or inflammation. Along with taking herbs supportive of the liver and

kidneys, you eliminate sugar, gluten, dairy, eggs, nightshades, caffeine, soy and alcohol for around 10 days. You then re-introduce each food one at a time, noting any side effects after re-introduction. You may have heard of similar eating plans with the Whole 30 diet, or nearly any liver, kidney or colon-cleansing protocol. In short, it kinda sucks, but it’s worth it.

In that spirit, here’s what the Elimination Diet felt like.

Day 1: I’m going to be feeling awesome after kicking all that crap out! I SO don’t even need caffeine.

I am PUMPED! Screw all that money I spend on espresso!

Day 2: Were this boring hole in my right eye socket [editor’s note: from lack of caffeine] to go away, everything would be just great. Today I had my second helping of brown rice with steamed veggies. But no soy sauce? Brutal.

Day 3: Wait, caffeine withdrawal is supposed to subside, right? You sure I can’t pop an Ibuprofen for the pain, doc? You’re so mean. Wait, I have to meet the girls for Ladies’ Night—I’ve earned a cheat night, right? God, you suck. So… I am just supposed to go out and NOT DRINK? What will I do with my hands?!

Day 4: Today was the pit of despair and there wasn’t even an espresso to look forward to. My friends are going out again, but I think I’ll stay home and take an Epsom salt bath, followed by a castor oil pack to the belly, to extra-underline how anti-social I am. Lettuce wraps for dinner tonight. Check.

Day 7: I may actually LIKE staying home and reading and sleeping at night, instead of going out. And I am starting to figure out more creative foods to eat. And I feel really great—I remembered my dreams last night! Who wants to go for a run?

Day 9: One more day-ish until I can bring something back into my diet—what’s it going to be?! Totally cheese. For the love of everything dairy-licious, if I feel triggered by eating cheese, I may just give up. O, wait, coffee. Coffee!! It’s been so long since we hung out.

Day 10: Feeling super good and yet kinda anxious.

Maybe I want ALCOHOL first?

Day 11: I settled for re-introducing dairy first. My tongue felt phlegmy afterward. Does that mean it’s a “trigger,” doc? You knew I didn’t want to hear that.

Day 14: Yes! Trying eggs today! ** Eggs gave me heartburn. Why haven’t I noticed this before?

Day 17: This. Is. Getting. So. Old. Brought back wheat.

It gave me instant inflammation in my hands.

Day 20: Dear, sweet coffee. Let us never part again.

You won’t betray me, right?! O good. We’re good.

So what happened? I found out all the foods that made me feel crappy, and I reset my body to crave more whole, non-inflammatory foods. Have I stayed away from the SAD diet completely? No, but I try to do so a lot more often, and I’ve learned a valuable lesson in what stresses not to put on my body—especially when there are other stresses present. Since then, I’ve endeavored to do a version of the Whole 30 a couple times a year, and I should even do it more.

The cleanse was awful. And I’d do it all over again.

On Christmas day in 1917, five nuns boarded the train in Kokomo, Indiana, and headed west. They answered a frontier priest’s call for help to provide care for the people summoned here by seemingly endless land, sky and opportunity.

When asked to care for some, the sisters were resolute in their creed: they would care for all, or they would care for none.

Their story is our story.

Throughout 2018, we will celebrate 100 years of caring for all.

Defying Convention

Alan Alda of “M*A*S*H” fame pens a play about Marie Curie

By Elizabeth Warnimont

irector Marla Manning describes Alan Alda’s “Radiance: The Passion of Marie Curie,” as a rewarding and unconventional project in more ways than one. The tribute to Nobel physicist Madame Marie Curie opens at the Cascades Theatre Friday.

Most people associate the playwright with his iconic portrayal of Hawkeye, the wisecracking surgeon on the TV series M*A*S*H – but Alda’s also known for his enthusiasm for science. In fact, he conducts workshops on the topic to physicians and scientists through the Alan Alda Center for Communicating Science in New York. “Radiance” is a sensitive expression of that passion, and a personal portrait of the groundbreaking physicist.

According to Manning, Alda quipped that he developed a “crush” on Marie Curie while researching her life for the play.

Curie shared the Nobel Prize in physics with her husband, physicist Pierre Curie, in 1903, eventually winning a sec-

because he told them (the Nobel committee) he wouldn’t accept the prize unless she was a part of it, because she was instrumental in the discovery.”

supposed to keep their personal lives to themselves.”

Curie’s friends, Manning says, also defied social dictates by defending her during the scandal. “There was so much of people defying convention. They’re fascinating people,” she says of the characters in the play.

The structure of the play is unconventional too, in a number of ways. The actors do all of the scene changes. In fact, everyone remains onstage throughout the performance, even though only one actor at a time may actually be performing. “I was concerned about the challenges of the play, (in part) because so much of it is exposition. I think (Alda) might have written it almost as a glorified acting exercise, because the actors come in, play their scene and sit

“Without revealing too much of the play,” Manning told Source Weekly, “she broke with social mores because women were supposed to keep their personal lives to themselves.

When asked what the director hopes audiences will take away from the performance, Manning emphasizes it’s more about the woman than it is about Curie’s scientific accomplishments.

“I’m not as concerned about them understanding what Radium is,” she says, “but for them to understand what Marie Curie did with her life, how difficult it was for her to do what she did and she still did it. It is called, ‘Radiance: The Passion of Marie Curie.’” SW “Radiance: The Passion of Marie Curie”

Muse + March

Muse Conference to jump start Bend Women’s March... or perhaps it’s the other way around

By Elizabeth Warnimont

T

he sixth annual Muse Women’s Conference, beginning March 1, serves this year to kick off the inaugural Bend Women’s March, a month-long program of events to coincide with both Women’s History Month and International Women’s Day. If you’ve attended in the past, then you already know that the four-day conference, a collaboration between World Muse and Visit Bend, brings internationally-recognized artists, authors, athletes and other women in leadership roles together with local women and teens, with the aim to inspire participants to create positive change in their lives and communities.

A launch event on Jan. 11 featured a special Night Light Show by comedian Shanan Kelley and her Magnificent Guests. Other 2018 Bend Women’s March events include: Muse Women’s Conference - March 1-4 Expect art installations, panel discussions, keynotes, performances and breakout workshops designed to explore women’s individual and collective stories and deepen their sense of belonging to each other and the world.

“We offer an interactive workshop on Sunday,” World Muse Director Amanda Stuermer says. “It integrates the whole experience. The main part of the conference is Saturday, when we bring in 30-plus presenters throughout the day – performers, artists,

Lynn Rothan

Lynn Rothan: Listening to nature’s rhythm Lynn Rothan lets the world speak to her, showing itself and its beauty. Then she takes it from there. Intuition is key for Rothan, which you can see in her retrospective show currently on display in the Pence Pinckney Gallery at Central Oregon Community College.

The quality of life and the colors of the high desert called Rothan to make her home in Central Oregon in the 1980s. “Having sunshine all the time, as a painter, is amazing,” she says. It’s obvious how the natural landscape inspires her work. Often, using a variety of mediums, Rothan seeks to enhance what’s already there, showcasing beauty and allowing it to be alive.

It’s not just metaphorical, but also literal for Rothan. Her current show has nine large gourd sculptures

31

that tower over 8 feet high. Gourds and seed pods are reoccurring images in Rothan’s work. The latest creations contain some gourds that have been in her studio for over 20 years.

Sometimes, Rothan carves the gourds and creates bowls, but says this time she wanted to stack them. Careful to not expose people to the risk of mold gourds can carry, Rothan waxed and sealed each one, doing her best to not disturb each gourd’s natural state— while also enhancing their beauty through carving, burning and painting.

Interestingly, the gourds are still alive,

the seeds in each one still viable.

Rothan is also a ceramic bead maker.

“Looking at the gourds, you can see how they would be beautiful as a bead.

So, I started saving them. Some kind of magic happened and I found that the gourds told me what they wanted to be.”

Sometimes a painting or a sculpture can be a prayer or an offering back to the natural world that inspires us. Rothan’s work is a beautiful reminder of that. By listening to nature and being one with it, Rothan allows others to see the beauty in the world she’s clearly discovered for herself. SW

Crikey! Mates Making Pies LITTLE BITES

By Lisa Sipe

Authentic Australian meat pies, at your friendly, local pool hall

33

By Lisa Sipe

Little-Known Cafe Has New Owners

Duda’s is Down Under with savory eats and twisty cocktails.

There are exactly eight items on Duda’s food menu; two snacks and six Aussie pies. This type of menu usually means one of two things: either the food sucks and they don’t have the desire or space to do better, or they stick to one thing because they’ve perfected it. We hoped it was the latter. Since we’ve never had Aussie pies, we ordered the most traditional, the classic with beef, as well as the Ned Kelly, made with the same signature beef and egg, bacon and cheddar.

The shortcrust pastry was flaky, soft and buttery.

The ground beef filling was meaty and rich, sopped in gravy but not runny. eat meat pies—so it’s fitting to find meat pies here.

My partner, Jim, started with the Mele Kalikimaka IPA from Sunriver Brewing, and I ordered an Old Fashioned Lavender from the cocktail menu.

Josh Duda, who owns the bar with his father and wife, was my bartender. He made my drink using a Yarai mixing glass. It seemed quite elegant—maybe a little hipster for a pool hall, but an indication my cocktail would be made well. It was. The drink was boozy like it should be. The whiskey was the star, but I could still taste hints of the lavender bitters, making it a bit more interesting than the classic.

Our meat pies were served with a tiny Australian flag, ketchup packets and potato chips. I ate my pie with a fork and knife, but it’s traditional to eat it by hand. The shortcrust pastry was flaky, soft and buttery. The ground beef filling was meaty and rich, sopped in gravy but not runny. This Aussie pie was more flavorful than traditional Cornish pasties.

The Australians use more spices, and my taste buds noticed. It’s traditional to eat a meat pie with a bit of what the Australians call “tomato sauce,” but what you might know more traditionally as ketchup. Even though the pie was delicious on its own, I dipped my next bite into some. The ketchup’s acidity

made all the flavors bloom. The condiment made complete sense.

I tried a bite of the Ned Kelly, named after Australia’s most famous bushranger, an outlaw who wore a suit of bulletproof armor to his final gunfight. The Ned Kelly tasted like the breakfast version of the classic, the cheese and bacon adding a lot of smoky flavor and the cooked egg yolk making it rich.

I asked Amy Duda, the cook behind the pies, how she started making them.

She told me her husband loved them, and while she was waiting for her green card, she worked to perfect them. She had her mum, back in her beachy hometown of Coffs Harbour in Australia, do some market research for her, sending Amy photos of meat pies and measurements. She researched the fillings and quickly discovered the biggest secret to authenticity was slow cooking and a bit of thick, brown, salty Vegemite, the Australian condiment made with leftover brewer’s yeast, vegetables and spices. It took Josh Duda six months to talk his wife into making meat pies for the bar.

They’ve been serving them for the past five months, selling about 70 to 100 pies a week.

If we get another cold snap—or even some winter snow, those hearty Aussie meat pies will be exactly what I crave to warm me up. SW Duda’s Billiards Bar 1020 NW Wall St., Bend 541-213-2321 dudasbilliardsbar.com

Walk into the Deschutes County building and you’ll see 97 Café. It has an ephemeral vibe with two free standing counters, but the coffee shop, previously named 5J Café, has been there for six or seven years and has had several owners. Most recently 97 Café was purchased by Kristal Jaquith, a previous employee.

Jaquith has a background in the coffee shop business, having worked in a family-owned cafe in the Willamette Valley for 14 years. The 97 Café serves county employees and visitors to the building. When Jaquith took over she listened to what customers wanted, adding fresh salads, wraps, sandwiches and a daily soup to the menu. She’s working on sourcing as locally as possible. I stopped in for a latte and an egg, cheese and bacon breakfast sandwich on an English muffin. Nothing fancy, but it sure was good. SW 97 Café

Westside 10 Barrel Outdoor-Only Until March Sorry, westsiders: 10 Barrel Brewing’s Westside pub is closed, sort of.

The interior space is temporarily shut for renovations. The company has plans to redo the kitchen, the entrance, restore the floors and add a new bar and draft systems to serve, you guessed it, more beers.

In the interim, you can order beers and eats from the food truck, named “The Beer Belly.” The outdoor pub will be open Thursday through Sunday until March 9. Specials include $4 Crush cans on Thursdays and $2 Pub Beer on Fridays. A limited food menu includes the 10 Barrel burgers, pork verde tacos, pastrami sandwiches and elk and pork chili.

I

discovered Duda’s Billiards Bar while researching the businesses using Prep Bend as a commercial kitchen. Duda’s Billiards Bar uses the spot to make Amy’s famous homemade Aussie meat pies. I was intrigued. I’ve had Cornish pasties, the baked English pastry filled with minced (ground) meat and vegetables, which gained popularity in the late 18th century by miners who ate them at work because the dish was portable, easy to eat with your hands, and hearty and filling. As miners emigrated because of lack of work, the pasty made its way around the world, including Australia.

Before I could make it to Duda’s, a friend, Carolyn Stokes, texted me and said, “Have you had the Australian meat pies at Duda’s downtown?” I said no, but that I’ve wanted to. Stokes said, “it’s a husband and wife team that owns the place. He is bartending and she makes the meat pies. The food is amazing and they are adorable. She’s from Australia.”

Now, I definitely had to go.

Located on Wall Street in downtown Bend, Duda’s is a pub with pool tables and a few other games, including foosball. At the back of the place is a small bar. The Aussie pie shop menu is on the wall in several places. Americans eat hotdogs at sporting events; Australians

ALL THE MONEY IN THE WORLD: Ridley

Scott, the 80-year-old pioneer filmmaker, removed Kevin Spacey from the finished version of this film and re-shot the role starring Christopher Plummer.

He did this herculean task in eight days. It takes me two weeks to type up a resume. I now feel terrible about myself and also really want to see this movie.

Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

COCO: Leave it to Pixar to make a cute and heartwarming animated film about death and remembrance. “Coco” follows a young Mexican boy who travels to the Land of the Dead in order to follow his dreams to be a musician. With groundbreaking animation and hauntingly beautiful music, “Coco” is the finest Pixar film in years. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX THE COMMUTER: First we had Liam Neeson

on a plane, now we have him on a train! If his next movie can get him on a bus then we have a perfect action movie trifecta. In all seriousness, “The Commuter” is a ton of fun and proves there’s still life in the “Badass Liam Neeson” genre. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

DARKEST HOUR: Gary Oldman is on the

MOLLY’S GAME: Jessica Chastain stars in this biopic of former Olympic-level skier turned underground gambling kingpin Molly Bloom. “Molly’s Game” is fast-paced, fascinating and a perfect counterpoint to cinemas clogged with superheroes and fart jokes. If you’ve ever enjoyed an episode of “The West Wing,” then this movie will hit that sweet spot. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX PADDINGTON 2: In a few years, “Paddington 2” will be spoken about with such children’s classics as “Babe: A Pig in the City” and “Stuart Little.” A warm-hearted and wonderful experience that’s a perfect family film for adults, children and every single person in between. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Redmond Cinemas

FERDINAND: An animated adventure about

PITCH PERFECT 3: This is the little franchise

THE FLORIDA PROJECT: Director Sean Baker

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, Sisters Movie House, Redmond Cinemas

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 Jackman

started his career as a song and dance man, so it’s fitting that this Christmas 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

1341 NE 3RD STREET | 541.317.3566 | WWW.PRETTYPUSSYCAT.COM

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

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 make-up are usually goofier than the filmmakers like to believe. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

a giant bull trying to escape from his cruel captors. With the voice talents of John Cena, Kate McKinnon, David Tennant and Anthony Anderson, “Ferdinand” should be a funny and fast-paced flick for the kids. The humor in the trailer is fairly juvenile, so don’t expect Pixar-level animation. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

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, Redmond Cinema

I, TONYA: Margot Robbie turns in an electric performance as Tonya Harding in this empathetic and fast-paced biopic. “I, Tonya” is much less interested in crucifying the skater as it is shining a light on America’s relationship to celebrities and how quickly we turn on our heroes. See full review on p 37. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House INSIDIOUS: THE LAST KEY: What’s truly

amazing about this franchise that’s now four films into its run is that it stars a 74-year-old character actress. “The Last Key” has a few wonderfully spooky moments, but the real draw is seeing Lin Shaye finally take a long-overdue turn in the spotlight. Fans of the series will find lots to like with this newest installment. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

JUMANJI: WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE:

Loosely connected to the original “Jumanji” starring Robin Williams, this reboot updates the story

that could. The entire cast returns in what is being advertised as the last film in the series, but if it’s a success I’m sure the Bellas can be talked into one more aca-venture. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

PROUD MARY: Taraji P. Henson has deserved her own franchise for years, so hopefully this action/thriller about a professional assassin trying to save a child is worthy of her talents. Even if the movie is lacking, Henson is always worth watching as she chews every bit of scenery she can. 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 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

THREE BILLBOARDS OUTSIDE EBBING, MISSOURI: Writer/Director Martin McDonagh,

who is responsible for the modern classics, “Seven Psychopaths” and “In Bruges,” brings us another darkly hilarious look at human nature. With awards-worthy performances by Frances McDormand, Woody Harrelson and Sam Rockwell, “Three Billboards” is a wildly original piece of art that should not be missed. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

Climbers hit the wall for Bend competition

By Howard Leff Will Burks

routes that people will find entertaining, it requires you to set moves that are drastically different than slow climbing outside—which is not that exciting to watch necessarily. We set moves in here that you’ll rarely see outside, if ever.”

Boulder Bash competitors, who vie for cash prizes, come from all over the Pacific Northwest. “We get a strong contingent of local and regional athletes, from as far east as Boise, and as far north as Seattle,” says the gym’s Director of Operations Rich Breuner. There’s a qualifying round during the day, but it’s the nighttime finale where things really get heated.

“We turn off all the lights. It kind of creates this really cool stadium-like experience,” he says. “The audience wants to see everybody do well. Every single climber gets an equal amount

"We're making sure different climbers fall at different spots for different reasons."

—JOEY JANNSEN you haven’t already guessed, is a direct descendant of outdoor rock climbing.

But before you dismiss gym climbing as just a creative way to get your heart pumping, remember, it’ll be an official Olympic sport at the Games of the XXXII Olympiad—also known as Tokyo 2020.

“It initially started as kind of a training tool to get climbers prepared for outdoor routes,” says Jannsen. “But the general idea is still the same. You’re still doing similar movement.” As for what you’ll see at the Bash, he says, “If you’re putting on a show and setting

of audience participation. They’re all super psyched to see whoever it is do well. They’re not necessarily rooting for one individual, and that’s another cool aspect of the overall vibe and atmosphere of the finals.”

“It’s a party,” says Mike Rougeux, the climbing director at the nonprofit Bend Endurance Academy, who also helps MC the finale. “One of the reasons why this event has been so successful and why athletes come from out of town to compete is because they like the crowd. They like the vibe. They like the audience. It’s loud. The audience cheers and screams

Organizers strive to make the Bend Boulder Bash hard for competitors and entertaining for spectators.

and claps and yells. When you come and watch, you’re part of the experience and the climbers do try harder when everyone’s cheering for them. Competitive climbers will say that’s what helps them up the wall.”

Based on what Rougeux sees, the sport has a bright future in Bend—especially with such a strong youth movement. BEA even has a program for preschoolers. “The kids like it. It’s fun to watch,” he says. “But kids that really start training for it are middle school or high school age.”

Breuner’s a strong supporter of BEA’s efforts: “They’re not just creating climbers, they’re creating athletes. The last few Bashes we’ve had, the finalists’ average age has probably been 20 or under.

These are young individuals climbing at a really high level.”

They’ll need to be at a high level to

counter Jannsen’s creative expertise.

He’s not planning to make it easy. “If everybody does all the boulder problems, or if they all fall in the same spot, we don’t find out who’s a better climber,” he says. “We’re making sure different climbers fall at different spots for different reasons. That’s my job—not only finding out who gets first through sixth, but also making sure it’s entertaining and fun for the spectators to watch.

“People like to see drama when they’re watching a climbing competition. So, I try to create those moments.” SW Bend Boulder Bash Finale Saturday, Jan. 20 7-10pm Bend Rock Gym 1182 SE Centennial Ct., Bend Free bendrockgym.com

oey Jannsen creates problems for other people.

Specifically, the more than 100 sport climbers descending on the Bend Rock Gym this week to compete in the Bend Boulder Bash. Jannsen’s job? Set vertical obstacle course “routes” for those making their way up the bouldering wall. He’s the head “setter,” which puts him in charge of designing the course’s difficult twists and turns.

“My job is to organize the routes for this event—making sure there’s a diverse set for the qualifying rounds, as well as a good set of boulder ‘problems’ for the final round.”

Competitors who fail to navigate these routes and problems typically come tumbling off the wall. A setback, certainly, but it’s a lot better (and safer) than falling off a mountain. This sport, if

The New Tax Bill and How It Will Affect Real Estate

A

According to the NAR article, mortgage interest and property tax deductions will continue with some changes.

The mortgage interest deduction will have a debt limitation of $750,000 for new loans. Interest on second homes will also remain deductible, but subject to the same $750,000 debt limits.

State and local income tax deductions are limited to $10,000 for both single and married filers.

Probably the biggest incentive of home ownership – the exclusion of gain on the sale of a principal residence— remains unchanged. According to NAR, single taxpayers will still be able to exclude $250,000 of gain, while married taxpayers will be able to exclude $500,000 as long as they lived in the home for two of the past five years.

NAR offers further analysis of how the new tax law will affect taxpayers as compared to old law, and generally, taxes will be reduced. The limitations on the deductibility of state and local taxes to $10,000 could be an incentive for retirees and those on fixed incomes to locate to lower tax states.

$199,000 - $499,000 24 unit condominium development comprised of 4 individual phases. Condos range from 400-1401 sq. ft.

VOLUME 22 ISSUE 03 / January 18, 2018 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

s you might expect, the National Association of Realtors was heavily involved in lobbying to preserve incentives and benefits for homeownership during the recent tax reform process. A recent analysis of the effects of the new bill show benefits for renters, still preserving most home ownership incentives.

The doubling of the standard deduction to $12,000 for individual taxpayers and $24,000 for joint returns will be an advantage to renters who could not previously itemize deductions. By doubling the standard deduction, the value of mortgage interest and property tax deductions is reduced, putting renters on a similar playing field with the average homeowner. Under prior law, an incentive to owning a home was the ability to deduct mortgage interest and property taxes as itemized deductions—thereby reducing taxable income, while the standard deduction was lower. It’s estimated that because of this change in the standard deduction, there will be little tax difference between renting and owning for more than 90 percent of taxpayers.

SCIENCE ADVICE GODDESS Guess Pains

I got dumped four months ago, and I’m still not sure what happened. All of my boyfriend’s explanations seemed vague, and the breakup really came out of nowhere. I don’t want to contact him.

How do I sort this out so I can move on?

— Desperately Seeking Closure Science has yet to figure out a number of life’s mysteries—questions like: “What came before the big bang?” “Why is there more matter than antimatter?” and “If we’re such an advanced civilization, what’s with short-sleeved leather jackets?”

Freak breakups—unexpected, inexplicable endings to relationships—are really tough because our mind doesn’t do well with unfinished business. It ends up bugging us to get “closure”—and by “bugging,” I mean like some maniacal game show host in hell, shouting at us for all eternity, “Answer the question! Answer the question!”

This psychological spin cycle we go into is called “the Zeigarnik effect,” after Russian psychologist and psychiatrist Bluma Zeigarnik. In the 1920s, Zeigarnik observed that waiters at a busy Vienna restaurant were pretty remarkable at remembering food orders they had taken but had yet to deliver.

However, once they’d brought the food to the patrons, they had little memory of what the orders were.

Zeigarnik’s research (and subsequent modern research) suggests that the mind remains in a “state of tension” until we complete whatever we’ve left incomplete— finishing the task we’ve started or finally answering some nagging question.

This might seem like bad news for you, considering the mystery you’ve got on your hands. However, you can make use of psychologist Daniel Kahneman’s research. He explains that our brains are “expensive” to run; basically, it takes a ton of energy to keep the lights on up there. So our mind is programmed to take mental shortcuts whenever it can—believing stuff that has even a veneer of Amy Alkon plausibility.

As for how this plays out, essentially, your mind assumes that you’re smart—that you don’t believe things for no reason. The upshot of this for you is that you can probably just decide on a story—your best guess for why your now-ex-boyfriend bolted—and write yourself an ending that gets you off the mental hamster wheel.

Should any of those old intrusive thoughts drop by for a visit, review the ending you’ve written, and then distract yourself until they go away—like by reciting the ABCs backward or by pondering the mysteries of human existence, such as vajazzling (gluing Swarovski crystals to one’s labia and thereabouts). No, ladies, your vagina will not be more fun if it’s wearing earrings.

Got a problem? Write Amy Alkon, 171 Pier Ave. Suite 280, Santa Monica, CA 90405, or e-mail AdviceAmy@aol.com (advicegoddess.com).

ASTROLOGY

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): “When one door closes, another opens,” said inventor Alexander Graham Bell. “But we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened.” Heed his advice, Aquarius. Take the time you need to mourn the lost opportunity. But don’t take MORE than the time you need.

The replacement or alternative to what’s gone will show up sooner than you think.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Gilbert Stuart painted the most famous portrait of America’s first president, George Washington. It’s the image on the U.S. one-dollar bill. And yet Stuart never finished the masterpiece.

Begun in 1796, it was still a work-in-progress when Stuart died in 1828.

Leonardo da Vinci had a similar type of success.

His incomplete painting *The Virgin and Child with St. Anne* hangs in the Louvre in Paris, and his unfinished *The Adoration of the Magi* has been in Florence’s Uffizi Gallery since 1671. I propose that Stuart and da Vinci serve as your role models in the coming weeks. Maybe it’s not merely OK if a certain project of yours remains unfinished; maybe that’s actually the preferred outcome.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Many American women did not have the right to vote until August 18, 1920. On that day, the Tennessee General Assembly became the 36th state legislature to approve the Nineteenth Amendment, thus sealing the legal requirements to change the U.S. Constitution and ensure women’s suffrage. The ballot in Tennessee was close. At the last minute, 24-year-old legislator Harry T. Burns changed his mind from no to yes, thanks to a letter from his mother, who asked him to “be a good boy” and vote in favor. I suspect that in the coming weeks, Aries, you will be in a pivotal position not unlike Burns’. Your decision could affect more people than you know. Be a good boy or good girl.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): In the coming weeks, Destiny will be calling you and calling you and calling you, inviting you to answer its summons.

If you do indeed answer, it will provide you with clear instructions about what you will need to do expedite your ass in the direction of the future. If on the other hand you refuse to listen to Destiny’s call, or hear it and refuse to respond, then Destiny will take a different tack. It won’t provide any instructions, but will simply yank your ass in the direction of the future.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Looks like the Season of a Thousand and One Emotions hasn’t drained and frazzled you. Yes, there may be a pool of tears next to your bed. Your altar might be filled with heaps of ashes, marking your burnt offerings. But you have somehow managed to extract a host of useful lessons from your tests and trials. You have surprised yourself with the resilience and resourcefulness you’ve been able to summon. And so the energy you’ve gained through these gritty triumphs is well worth the price you’ve had to pay.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Every relationship is unique. The way you connect with another person -- whether it’s through friendship, romance, family, or collaborative projects -- should be free to find

HAPPY HOUR

the distinctive identity that best suits its special chemistry. Therefore, it’s a mistake to compare any of your alliances to some supposedly perfect ideal.

Luckily, you’re in an astrological period when you have extra savvy about cultivating unique models of togetherness. So I recommend that you devote the coming weeks to deepening and refining your most important bonds.

Cozy up

with The Source Weekly’s Winter Edition of The Happy Hour Guide! From hot toddies to delicious ales, sliders to salads, we’ve got your guide to the best happy hour deals in town. Let our reader’s know what you’re serving up in this local’s favorite guide!

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): During recent weeks, your main tasks have centered around themes often associated with strain and struggle: repair, workaround, reassessment, jury-rigging, adjustment, compromise. Amazingly, Leo, you have kept your suffering to a minimum as you have smartly done your hard work. In some cases you have even thrived. Congratulations on being so industrious and steadfast! Beginning soon, you will glide into a smoother stage of your cycle. Be alert for the inviting signs. Don’t assume you’ve got to keep grunting and grinding.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Norwegian artist Edvard Munch (1863-1944) created four versions of his iconic artwork *The Scream.* Each depicts a person who seems terribly upset, holding his head in his hands and opening his mouth wide as if unleashing a loud shriek. In 2012, one of these images of despair was sold for almost $120 million. The money went to the son of a man who had been Munch’s friend and patron. Can you think of a way that you and yours might also be able to extract value or get benefits from a negative emotion or a difficult experience? The coming weeks will be a favorable time to do just that.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): “I think I like my brain best in a bar fight with my heart,” says poet Clementine von Radics.

While I appreciate that perspective, I advise you to do the opposite in the coming weeks. This will be a phase of your astrological cycle when you should definitely support your heart over your brain in bar fights, wrestling matches, shadow boxing contests, tugs of war, battles of wits, and messy arguments.

Here’s one of the most important reasons why I say this: Your brain would be inclined to keep the conflict going until one party or the other suffers ignominious defeat, whereas your heart is much more likely to work toward a win-win conclusion.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): When he was 24 years old, Scorpio-born Zhu Yuanzhang (1328-1398) was a novice monk with little money who had just learned to read and write. He had spent years as a wandering beggar. By the time he was 40 years old, he was the emperor of China and founder of the Ming Dynasty, which ruled for 276 years. What happened in between? That’s a long story. Zhu’s adventurousness was a key asset, and so was his ability as an audacious and crafty tactician. His masterful devotion to detailed practical matters was also indispensable. If you are ever in your life going to begin an ascent even remotely comparable to Zhu’s, Scorpio, it will be in the coming ten months. Being brave and enterprising won’t be enough. You must be disciplined and dogged, as well.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): In 1892, the influential *Atlantic Monthly* magazine criticized Sagittarian poet Emily Dickinson, saying she “possessed an extremely unconventional and grotesque fancy.” It dismissed her poetry as incoherent, and declared that an “eccentric, dreamy, half-educated recluse” like her “cannot with impunity set at defiance the laws of gravitation and grammar.” This dire diss turned out to be laughably wrong. Dickinson is now regarded as one of the most original American poets. I offer this story up as a pep talk for you, Sagittarius. In the coming months, I suspect you’ll be reinventing yourself. You’ll be researching new approaches to living your life. In the course of these experiments, others may see you as being in the grip of unconventional or grotesque fantasy. They may consider you dreamy and eccentric. I hope you won’t allow their misunderstandings to interfere with your playful yet serious work.

more elastic and less sticky than regular chewing gum. That’s why you can blow bubbles with it.

A Capricorn accountant named Walter Diemer invented it in 1928 while working for the Fleer Chewing Gum Company. At the time he finally perfected the recipe, the only food dye he had on hand was pink. His early batches were all that color, and a tradition was born. That’s why even today, most bubble gum is pink. I suspect a similar theme may unfold soon in your life. The conditions present at the beginning of a new project may deeply imprint the future evolution of the project. So try to make sure those are conditions you like!

was planning to do a column regarding our batshit-crazy, Mad Hater Attorney General and his racist, prohibitionist rescinding of the Cole Memorandum and its tenuous protections. That would have been a fun read, and I would have been the only one to have thoughts on the matter!

But that story’s just starting, so while the responses and reactions are developing, let’s look at a problem in our state and cities—something we can all agree needs to be corrected.

INDISPUTABLE FACT: I am against cannabis being furnished to, shared with, sold, bartered or slipped to minors. Getting kids high isn’t funny. Kids shouldn’t be getting high, so don’t sell weed to kids—that’s creepy and wrong AF. Seriously, don’t be the Weinstein of Weed in the Junior set, Creepo.

EXCEPTION: If they’re minors with a legitimate medical condition. And, yes, with the bias against cannabis as a medicine, that leaves a broad question as to what’s a “legitimate” medical condition, especially for minors. That’s another column.

This one, patient reader, is about dispensaries in Oregon getting spot checked by the Oregon Liquor Control Commission last month for something more than a faulty camera or other minor violation.

It’s about letting underage people into a dispensary—never OK, acceptable, cool or funny. (Previous statement regarding medical notwithstanding. Medical patients: I hear, see and feel you.)

Over the holidays, the OLCC performed what they call “minor decoy operations” through the state, in which minor volunteers attempt to gain entry and make a purchase from a dispensary, using their own IDs, which show they’re underage. In the words of the OLCC, “The volunteers carry their own legal ID that identifies them as under 21, and do not disguise their age or lie to encourage the sale of marijuana.” So these were not children with Benjamin Button level prosthetics and makeup, and they weren’t carrying Chinese knock-off IDs. Here are the results: 12.20.17 - Eugene-Springfield - 19 dispensaries visited, three failed.

Compliance rate: 84 percent 12.21.17 – Keizer-Salem - 23 dispensaries visited, five failed.

Compliance rate: 78 percent 12.21.17 - Portland - Seven dispensaries visited, four failed. Compliance rate: 43 percent 12.28.17 - Central Oregon - Five dispensaries visited, zero failed.

Compliance rate: 100 percent 12.29.17 - Southern Oregon - 12 dispensaries visited, four failed.

Compliance rate: 67 percent Violations for a first offense of the sale to a minor range from a license suspension of 10 to 30 days or a fine of $1,650. Failure to check IDs properly can result in a seven-day license suspension or a fine of more than $1,100.

First, mad props to Central Oregon with a 100 percent compliance rate. The rest of the state applauds you.

Now, rest of state? What...the...fuck... are...you...doing.

Portland, I’m looking hard at you.

43 percent compliance? 43 percent? Full compliance involves correctly reading a person’s ID. I understand reading comprehension levels and attention spans in ‘Murica may not be shattering ceilings, but this isn’t the untranslated version of “The Iliad.” It’s an ID. That date of birth line is really the Cliff’s Notes, and it’s no more than eight digits.

I’ve checked IDs for a living. It’s boring, tedious and can make one question the work/self-esteem connection with extreme prejudice. But I was highly diligent—often while high—in correctly executing my duties, knowing what was on the line if I screwed it up.

Deadlines and space restrictions don’t allow us to explore and compare what such inspection results are at OLCC-licensed liquor stores, nor what the comparative potential negative consequences are of having minors gain access to cannabis versus alcohol.

Strict diligence is a part of becoming legitimate with an industry still feared, misunderstood and in some corners, hated by society. No one wins when minors gain access through regulated channels— and yes, there are (and have been for decades) numerous “unregulated access points” for minors to obtain cannabis.

Every dispensary should view this as a wakeup call to re-dedicate to ID standards. The devil is both in the details, and in seeking to dismantle the hard won gains cannabis has made. Let’s not give them easy ammunition with results like these. We’re better than that.
