ant to invoke a string of anguished cries of outrage in Bend? Feel like stripping citizens of their hard-earned birthright to drive and park their cars wherever they want, whenever they want?

Then endeavor to switch some of Bend’s downtown parking spaces to a paid system.

As reported in the Source Weekly last week, a two-year-long parking study conducted for the City of Bend has resulted in the recommendation to switch some of the parking in Mirror Pond Plaza and in other congested areas downtown to a model that involves some paid parking.

The study, conducted with Rick Williams Consulting, found that on average, about 210 cars were being moved from one 2-hour spot to another 2-hour spot every day, ostensibly driven by people who worked downtown. The study also highlighted the notion that “parking management” isn’t all about parking for cars; that seeing fewer car trips into downtown—and in turn, less-congested parking areas—could also be achieved by encouraging active transportation and parking for bikes.

The move to paid parking is one that we support, not least in part because we don’t believe that driving is the only way to access the city’s downtown core. We support the move because we believe that in a city the size of Bend, where one can cycle from the far-west side of town to downtown in fewer than five miles (Phil’s Trailhead to the Tower Theatre is 4.8 miles, to be exact), a lot more people should think twice about driving a large vehicle into the core.

Our city is only 35.9 square miles, even after the expansion of the Urban Growth Boundary, and yet, a pitifully low number of people actively commute to work every

day. If dropping off kids at school is your excuse, perhaps consider driving them to school and then biking into downtown.

If mobility is an issue, electric assist bikes and trikes can get 30 miles or more on a single charge.

Even those with more significant mobility issues and those living in the outer reaches now have the option of Uber, and of course, taxis and bus service. And just this week, the new summer shuttle service, Ride Bend, launches in central Bend. Meanwhile, the bike sharing service, Zagster, just recently set up a kiosk downtown and at OSU-Cascades. (Still, we do admit the region could stand to have even more bus access and service.)

Whether you’re commuting or you’re headed to downtown for purposes other than work, isn’t it easier to park your bike once, to spare yourself the fuel and parking hassle, and to perhaps get some exercise at the same time?

The point is: parking your vehicle for free in a downtown stall so you can work, shop or eat and drink in the city center isn’t a birthright. It’s a service that’s been provided to you thus far for free, and upon review of the cost, the entity that offers you some of that parking has determined that it’s costing too much. Many other cities have obviously thought the same, because most other cities of Bend’s size already charge for parking.

For those who are continually lamenting the fact that the city is lacking cash and don’t want to pay for something reasonable like a gas tax, this is your feebased model. It means added revenue at a time when the city is growing and looking at creative solutions to pay for its core services. If you thought that free parking was one of those “core services,” you were wrong. SW

I cannot agree with the parents of Amity Creek children that there should be no cell tower anywhere near that school.

The science regarding exposure is thin but reassuring. Cell tower, cell phone and wireless radiation is not the sort associated with damage to our cells, cancer or brain damage. I would like to see more research.

However, there will be no careful study of any consequences of cell tower radiation as congress has declined to consider funding the large, decades long effort needed to reveal some subtle effects.

How much research would convince these worried parents? I don’t think they could ever be convinced. There is excellent rock solid data on immunization safety and effectiveness but 20 percent of Amity Creek children are under immunized — the second lowest rate in eastern Oregon.

If thorough study of a topic was enough to convince worried parents, the immunization rate at Amity would be 100 percent.

Instead, “We have done our own research” was the ignorant claim of parents of many of the un-and-under-immunized children. I cared for some of these kids who attended Amity Creek!

Trinity Episcopal Church does good work with our indigent and homeless people and some extra funding could be well used.

The people who rely on cell service are exactly the families who don’t send their children to Amity Creek: the poor and undereducated. They don’t have landlines, expensive cable and home networks and several devices per family member. The indigent families I worked with at Mosaic Medical and COPA included many from the neighborhood of Amity Creek or who ate at Family Kitchen. Their cell phones are their only connection with jobs, utilities, schools and emergency services. They don’t need dropped calls.

For better or worse, our children are awash in low power radiation from cell service, their phones, games, tablets and household networks. The proposed cell tower at Trinity Church will make little difference in our children’s exposure. Come back in thirty years and we will know if we have made a good choice.

BEND SIXTH GRADERS PONDER CLIMATE CHANGE Climate Change is affecting our environment right before our very eyes. Everyday we get into our cars and drive to the store to buy things that we don’t need. On our way to the store we are burning fossil fuels and releasing them into the atmosphere. Once we get to the store, we walk inside and buy something we all know we don’t need. The story of that item is much bigger than you think.

For instance, a pencil. The wood is supplied by trees in California (which are being cut down leaving us with less oxygen and more carbon dioxide) and are shipped to China. That is a distance of 7,252 miles.

The rubber for the eraser is shipped from Brazil. That’s another 10,329 miles. The list goes on. Eventually the pencil is made in China and shipped all around the world including right here to Central Oregon. All of the items we buy have a story and that story goes on for miles.

The airplanes and semi trucks we use to ship everything that we purchase to our stores are polluting our environment letting off greenhouse gases. Central Oregon can and will be affected. One way is the moun-

tains. People come from all over to ski and snowboard. Global warming is causing less precipitation and in a few more decades, the snow on the mountains could be gone.

Bye-bye skiing and snowboarding at Mt. Bachelor and the other Cascade Mountains that are open for recreation.

Buying local is a good alternative. Or you could grow produce in a garden. Either one of these are good ideas because they emit less fossil fuels and greenhouse gasses into the environment which slows down global warming. Carpooling, biking or using public transportation are also plusses because that is less fossil fuels from cars and trucks. Put down the screen and go for a walk; saving electricity reduces your carbon footprint.

In conclusion, we are the cause of climate change. We are destroying our own environment right before our very eyes, but we can change that by making sure to buy local, grow our own produce, and use our transportation wisely.

Hikes in System Development Charges BPRD raises rates two-fold compared to City of Bend increases

7

"I am not sure if it is a disconnect, or more of a disregard concerning the lack of affordable housing.

In the past, Bend Park and Recreation has not shown any interest in working with the City regarding affordable housing, and regretfully that apears to be the position of their new board."

— JIM LONG ruction Projects

S

ystem Development Charges collected from new development projects to build new streets, sewers, parks and water utilities will soon increase, effectively making housing projects more expensive even amid an affordable housing crunch. Bend Parks and Recreation District voted unanimously on June 6 for the sharpest increase, effective July 1, at a rate of 6.8 percent.

BPRD Communications & Community Relations Manager Julie Brown stated that BPRD, “Adjust(s) the SDC rates annually based on the construction cost index and Bend land values according to the county assessor.” The Engineering News Record Construction Cost Index increased by 3.6 percent, while land prices jumped 12.92 percent, according to Lindsey Lombard, administrative services director for BPRD.

ive

ects ation ore he n the BPRD website at

The City of Bend, meanwhile, is aiming to raise rates at a lower rate, between 3 and 3.6 percent, according to Russell Grayson, development services director for the City of Bend.

“We raise rates annually to meet the engineering construction index, and they have historically been between 2

and 3 percent,” said Grayson. Those SDC rate increases will theoretically not impact affordable housing projects, due to a city ordinance which waives 100 percent of water and sewer SDCs and 75 percent of transportation SDCs for qualified affordable housing projects. BPRD offers such waivers on a much more intermittent basis.

Speaking to the differences in protocol between BPRD and the City, the City’s Affordable Housing Manager Jim Long says: “I am not sure if it is a disconnect, or more of a disregard concerning the lack of affordable housing.

In the past, Bend Park and Recreation has not shown any interest in working with the City regarding affordable housing, and regretfully that appears to be the position of their new board.”

Long notes the detrimental impact higher park fees may have on new builds, especially when affordable housing developers face potentially deep cuts at the state and federal levels. Asked if BPRD approached the city or the affordable housing committee to get their input on what would be an equitable annual increase, Long replied, “They have had no contact, no consultation, no questions to either me or the committee regarding their decision to raise SDCs.” Lombard from BPRD counters the affordability issue, noting: “The District sees this as an affordable-living issue and not just an affordable-housing issue...parks and recreation are part of quality of life. This benefit increases significantly as our community increases in residential density.

“As Bend grows, the level of service and opportunities the district provides for the growing community must keep pace. SDCs are the key mechanism to fund new parks and trails, so that new residents are allowed the same opportunities as we have provided long-time residents of the community.”

Lombard also points out that the SDC fee increases are higher because “We must purchase land (most often at fair market value) to build new parks... the City of Bend does not have to compete with fair market rates and can often exact road right-of-way dedications and sewer and water easements as part of new developments, and therefore doesn’t have the need to pay fair market value in order to acquire land in the same way as the district does for new parks.”

City Councilor Bill Moseley

observed the disconnect between parks and the city, noting the lack of a connected relationship moving forward on key issues facing Bend — most notably the housing affordably issue.

“Bend’s nationally recognized park system comes at a price,” says Moseley.

He referenced the slower growth in a Bend’s family income when compared to the quick, rising fees from BPRD fees and taxes.

For comparison, the total general fund for BPRD for 2017 is slated to be $28.9 million, while the total general fund for the City of Bend is $55.9 million.

“Bendites are being squeezed by rising housing costs – fueled in part

by BPRD’s SDCs and taxes on apartments and houses,” said Moseley. He praised the city for its affordable housing program as “a robust affordable housing program made possible by fee waivers from the school district and city. BPRD declined to participate.

Those making the least are compelled to support ice skating rinks and whitewater parks. As Westside neighbors trot their dogs, working class residents pay more in park fees and wonder how they will get by till the next paycheck.”

Meanwhile, Lombard says BPRD plans to possibly revise its SDC methodology after completing its comprehensive 10-year plan next summer. SW

Bulking up the Ballot Box

Shuttle Launching in Bend; Bikeshare Program Expands

A new rule is aimed at further maximizing voter access in Oregon

Deschutes County voters form a caravan while dropping off their ballots leading up to the November 2016 election.

O

regon Secretary of State Dennis Richardson has set in motion yet another effort to “maximize” voter access in a state that already excels in expanding and ensuring voter access for residents.

The new rule will extend the period of time before a voter is moved to inactive status, from five years to 10 years. Under law, a voter is moved to inactive status if they have neither voted nor updated their registration information during the prescribed period of time. Statewide, it’s estimated this will ultimately impact around 60,000 voters.

Descshutes county clerk Nancy Blankenship estimates there are 2,500 such voters currently in Deschutes County. Blankenship says it will be incumbent on county clerks to send notices to these voters of their change in status and obtain updated information as necessary.

Oregon has a history of leading when it comes to voter access, going back at least to 1912 when Oregon became one of the first states to grant women the right to vote. Though impediments and challenges remained—particularly with respect to racial and ethnic barriers—these efforts were emblematic of the Oregon commitment to expanded voter access. Voter access efforts have included allowing voters to register by mail beginning in 1975, the move to vote by mail in all elections in 1998 (Oregon was the first state to do so); online voter registration in 2009, and the most recent innovation, passage of Oregon’s Motor Voter Law in 2015, in which Oregon became the first state to move to an “opt-out” model of registration.

Oregon experimented with vote by mail in local elections and some state elections before full implementation through the citizen’s initiative, Ballot Measure 60, in 1998. Sen. Ron Wyden was the first federal candidate to be elected by a mail-in ballot, when he ran in a special election to replace Sen. Bob Packwood in 1996.

County Clerk Blankenship says she believes vote by mail has consistently increased voter participation.

She noted that the recent special election on May 16 had only a 29.4 percent voter turnout, quite low in comparison to other off-year elections in recent years.

However, she indicated that prior to vote by mail, such an election would likely have had a participation rate of only 8-10 percent.

Oregon’s dive into the motor voter world did not come without opposition. Those supporting the

legislation pointed toward the goal of breaking down barriers to allow all eligible voters the ability to register to vote. Ultimately, the law will serve to register all eligible voters not already registered to vote who apply for or renew a driver’s permit, Oregon driver’s license or Oregon ID card. Eligibility is defined as being over the age of 17, an Oregon resident and a U.S. citizen.

Opposition to the Motor Voter Law focused primarily on two concerns: the potential for voter fraud and privacy issues. The issue of voter fraud circles around non-citizens gaining access to vote. Oregon law currently requires proof of either citizenship or legal status in the United States to qualify for a driver’s license, permit or ID card. The Department of Motor Vehicles differentiates these two status options, and under the law, only data regarding citizens is forwarded to the Elections Division.

A current bill under consideration by the Legislature, SB 374 A, adopting the requirements of the Federal Real ID act for such identification documents in Oregon, would conceivably tighten the proof of citizenship requirement. As to the issue of privacy concerns, this focuses on the potential breach of confidential and or personal data. The law itself speaks to maintaining privacy of certain information, such as information regarding police officers and domestic violence victims, and both the DMV and Elections Division have worked to institute and tighten preventative measures involved in the exchange of information.

Thus far the OMV appears to have been successful, reportedly registering over 250,000 voters in that first year. In Deschutes County, according to Clerk Blankenship, from Jan. 1, 2016 through May 31, 2017, there have been 17,079 voters registered through OMV. This equates to 64 percent of newly registered voters during that period of time. She explained that once they receive the information from the state, they then spend hours verifying voter registration information to insure the accuracy of that information, as they do with the regular registration process.

There will likely be proposals in the future to “upgrade” the voting process in Oregon, such as online voting. There is one thing for certain, however, as pointed out by Blankenship, “Oregon has worked to make it as simple as possible to register, receive and return your ballot, and overall, that is a good thing.” SW

A summer shuttle program for central Bend starts June 23.

The “Ride Bend” shuttle is a pilot program aimed at providing visitors and residents another way to connect between downtown Bend, the Old Mill District, OSU-Cascades, Galveston Avenue., Century Drive. and other popular spots in the city.

The free service, offered through a partnership between Visit Bend, the Central Oregon Intergovernmental Council and the City of Bend, offers rides every 15 minutes between 2pm and 10pm, seven days a week, through Labor Day. “Ride Bend will be simple and convenient for visitors and locals who want to get around this great city’s core areas without getting in their cars this summer,” said Bend Mayor Pro Tem Sally Russell. “It will also demonstrate how public transportation can help alleviate traffic and parking congestion, which our community has expressed concerns about as Bend grows.”

The Dial-A-Ride service is available to riders with ADA considerations who are unable to use the fixed route option.

Routes and schedules are forthcoming on the CET website, CascadesEastTransit.com, and at VisitBend.com.

Meanwhile, the bikeshare program launched at the OSU-Cascades campus has expanded to downtown Bend.

Bikes offered by Zagster have been available on the campus since late 2016. Now, a new kiosk at the corner of Bond Street. and Franklin Avenue. offers even more bikes for rent by the hour. More kiosks are slated for construction in the coming weeks.

Canal Piping Up For Public Input

A plan to develop a Central Oregon watershed plan aimed at conserving water, reducing energy waste, improving safety and increasing fish and wildlife habitat is up for public input this July. The plan would see many of Central Oregon’s canals be converted to more efficient piping mechanisms. Central Oregon irrigators, the USDA Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS), the Deschutes Basin Board of Control (DBBC) and the Farmers Conservation Alliance (FCA) are holding three public open houses for community members and stakeholders.

“Developing these comprehensive watershed plans is the next step to advance the region’s irrigation modernization efforts on a landscape-scale, while providing an opportunity to leverage additional federal funding sources to accomplish work on-the-ground,’ said Tom Makowski, assistant state Conservationist for Watershed Resources and Planning for NRCS Oregon.

NRCS, in partnership with the FCA and the DBBC, will use the public input to develop a draft watershed plan which will be used to apply for federal funding through the Watershed Protection and Flood Prevention program.

Open Houses:

• Tumalo Irrigation: July 6, 5:30 to 6:30 pm at Tumalo Community Church Meeting Room, 64671 Bruce Ave, Bend.

• Swalley Irrigation: July 6, 6:30 to 7:30 pm. At Tumalo Community Church Meeting Room, 64671 Bruce Ave, Bend.

• Central Oregon Irrigation: July 10, 5:30 to 7 pm. Redmond Grange, 3152 SW Metolius Pl, Redmond.

Public not able to attend, can also submit comments between July 7 to July 20 at wsp@tumalo.org (Tumalo), swalleycomments@ gmail.com (Swalley) and watershed@coid.org (Central Oregon).

Sage-Grouse Plan Under Review

U.S. Secretary of the Interior Ryan Zinke has issued an order to review the plans for managing the greater sage-grouse on public lands. That’s following years of work by Western governors and other wildlife advocates who developed a bipartisan conservation plan for the bird.

In 2015, the Obama administration rolled out a plan for conserving the habitat of the greater sage-grouse, which would have helped keep the bird off the Endangered Species list. If listed under the Endangered Species Act, development would have been stalled on many public lands, and numerous lawsuits from both sides may have ensued. The 2015 plan allowed for the development of oil and gas infrastructure on lands that are not sage-grouse habitat.

“Secretary Zinke’s order undermines years of bipartisan collaboration to conserve the greater sage-grouse. It is a slap in the face to Western communities, coalitions, wildlife managers, private landowners, industry groups, and governors in both parties - all who diligently worked to find common ground and a workable solution to prevent the bird from landing on the endangered species list,” commented Chris Saeger, executive director of the Western Values Project.

MOVIES—Families, don’t let summer boredom get you down! Regal Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX offers $1 movies every Tuesday & Wednesday throughout the summer.

Family-oriented movies include “Trolls,” “Kubo and the Two Strings,” “The Lego Batman Movie” and more. // regmovies.com

TRAGEDY—Oregon has a wealth of amazing Shakespeare, thanks in part to Ashland’s Oregon Shakespeare Festival—but this August, you don’t have to travel over the mountains to witness some world-class performances, courtesy of The Bard. In fact, all you have to do is head on down to Bend’s own Drake Park.

JUNE 28

This year’s Shakespeare in the Park event features what is thought to be Shakespeare’s first tragedy, “Titus Andronicus.” As with most of The Bard’s tragic works, this one has its fair share of blood and mayhem. Titus Andronicus is a Roman general who comes home after years of war with just four of his 25 sons still alive. He’s captured the Queen of the Goths, Tamora, with whom he engages in an ongoing revenge battle that sees both of them losing more children, and eventually, sees Titus baking some of Tamora’s sons in a pie. Blood and mayhem, indeed.

BEND BICYCLE FILM FESTIVAL BIKES—If you’ve been around for more than about five minutes, then you’re probably aware that Central Oregonians love them some bikey fun. This fest, launched in 2009, is aimed at showcasing the area’s cycling culture, and offers a place for bike enthusiasts to get together to talk bike and plan out the season of riding. Featuring a host of short films about cycling. Submissions wanted—due by July 15.// 7pm. Tower Theatre. TowerTheatre.org, submissions ot BendBicycleFilmFestival.com

Scene from last year's Shakespeare in the Park.

This version features a cast from the Northwest Classical Theatre Company of Portland. That includes the worldclass talents of Joseph Marcell—who you might recognize from the show, “Fresh Prince of Bel-Air,” but whose chops also include a lifetime working at the Globe Theatre in London. With talent such as that gracing the stage, this is an outdoor theatre experience you won’t want to miss. // Fri., Aug. 18 & Sat., Aug 19. 7pm. Drake Park, Bend. ShakespeareBend.com. $22-$45

Either way, it’s going to be “Nothin' But a Good Time.” // 7:30pm. Tower Theatre.

The Source Weekly: Would you rather wrestle a tiger or punch a shark in the face?

Garrett Dutton: “Punch a shark in the face, although I hope I don’t have to because in Cape Cod where we surf, there’s an extremely large, and so far friendly, Great White population. I hope it stays that way!”

SW: Would you rather sing old blues songs in a dive bar for the rest of your life or play shows on a cruise ship every day for a year?

GD: “Wow, I’d rather play old blues songs in a dive bar.”

SW: Which duo would you rather join to form a trio, Simon and Garfunkel or Hall and Oats?

GD: “I’m gonna have to say Hall and Oats because I’m about to play a show with them in Philly.

I’m playing in their festival, the Hall and Oats HoagieNation festival, so I may actually get that chance.”

here’s just something about G. Love & Special Sauce that appeals to concertgoers in the Bend music scene. The last couple times Garrett “G. Love” Dutton and his crew visited Bend, they packed the Domino Room and inspired a sweaty, hip-hop and blues-influenced dance party. I usually like to get as close as possible, but back in 2012, I had a great vantage point from the south booth, which was purely coincidental and awesome.

When I talked to Dutton, he was drinking an ice cold beer at a little cafe in New Smyrna Beach, Fla. He’d spent the morning surfing and after finishing his cold beverage planned to take a nap before his show.

“For me, the big payoffs are just to be on stage and get to perform and play my songs and do what I love,” Dutton says. “That’s the payoff. That’s the love.

The work is the traveling and being away from home, but the music and the journey, like the journey of writing and making a record and physically journeying around the world, it’s all something I really love. And honestly, the more I do it, the more I love it.”

You wouldn’t guess it from Dutton’s thick Philly accent, but G. Love & Special Sauce formed in 1993 at a bar in Boston, Mass. Since then, Dutton has written, recorded and toured extensively. G. Love & Special Sauce gained traction in the music community by blending rock, hip-hop and blues to create a genre-defying mix of danceable jams. Hits including “Cold Beverage,” “Baby Got Sauce” and the Paul Simon cover “50 Ways to Leave Your Lover” have since become engrained in the musical landscape.

“When I hear friends of mine who are musicians say, ‘Man I’m so sick of playing the hits,’ I honestly never feel like that,” Dutton says. “As far as playing the hits, I love to play my hits. It makes me smile every time I play them because to me they’re just songs like every other song I wrote. But then I see the reaction and how happy they make certain people or they make the people dance harder to the stuff they really know and love. I just get a kick out of it.”

G. Love & Special Sauce recorded two full-length LPs in the last five

SW: Would you rather have dinner with Kim Jong Un or Donald Trump?

GD: “Oh my god, neither. Or actually, both of them, I think they need a talking to from G. Love the Superhero Brother.”

Ride down to the Century Center Courtyard and dance to the jams of G. Love & Special Sauce, this Friday night.

years. Right now, Dutton’s excited about a new project he’s been working on with Donovan Frankenreiter and Cisco Adler called Jamtown.

“The music we’ve made is really amazing,” Dutton says. “We have an EP coming out in June. It’s just something, you keep plugging away, you keep writing and recording and every once in awhile you really hit gold. We really did that on this project.”

The three musicians got together and wrote 10 songs in as many days, singing harmonies and watching their voices blend into a three-part sound that elevated the songs. Jamtown hits the road this summer, joining Jack Johnson on select dates, with a full tour in the works for the fall and a fulllength LP in 2018.

As for those craving new tunes from G. Love & Special Sauce, you’ll have to wait until 2019. The band plans to record in the fall of 2018 with legendary blues musician Keb Mo at the helm as producer. Sounds like it’ll be worth the wait. SW

Latin Fusion

¡Chiringa! celebrates the release of its new album, “Familia,” with a huge dance party

By Anne Pick 23

receive our offering and celebrate this huge accomplishment with us!”

On Friday, ¡Chiringa! Celebrates the release of its debut album, “Familia.” Some songs on the album originated years ago, while others came more recently in the album creation cycle.

Once they made it a band goal to produce an album within the year, the songwriting process moved quickly.

Amini’s songwriting skills developed thanks in part to participation in the Americana Song Academy, part of the Sisters Folk Festival.

“I want the songs to carry an energy and the lyrics help reinforce that energy with a message, a combination of festive themes mixed with some more serious or emotional content,” Amini says. “I was very directly influenced

by Nahko and Medicine for the People on the song, ‘When You Wake.’ I feel really connected to Nahko’s sound and values and his most recent album in particular, called ‘Hoka,’ inspired me to return to some of my roots in some more rap-style lyric writing with more raw and personal lyrics.”

Despite the fun, party sound ¡Chiringa! has become known for, Amini and the band faced challenges along the way. Amini loved the challenge of writing songs in Spanish. Though it was her first language, she had to relearn it after her family moved to California from Puerto Rico when she was three.

Shortly after finishing all of the instrumental tracks, right before she began recording the final vocal parts, Amini was diagnosed with vocal cord nodules. The diagnosis required she take a two week vocal rest. During that time, she did one percussion recording

session without any speaking.

“It was uncertain if my voice was going to be recovered in time to record final vocals on the album for it to be done by our Summer 2017 deadline,” Amini says. “While this put some stress on the process, we were able to rearrange our approach until my voice was well enough to record and somehow we managed to still finish the album on time.”

Fortunately, Amini was able to get the vocal rest she needed to record the final vocals and finish “Familia.” The album draws inspiration from a variety of Amini’s personal experiences. Amini wrote the aptly titled “Sheila E,” on a wave of inspiration after opening for the legendary drummer at the Tower Theatre in February 2016. “Los Bellos”

was written in response to the shootings in Orlando in June 2016. “Vitamin P” draws on the dance party vibe often experienced at a ¡Chiringa! show.

“I would like people to feel like part of our family,” Amini says. “I would love for people to be moved and uplifted by the spirit of this music and connect to it in whatever way is meaningful for them. It would be awesome if they were inspired to connect more with Latin American culture because of it. Of course, we hope people will want to dance and sing along!” SW ¡Chiringa!

ans of live music in Bend have no doubt shaken their booties to the Latin-influenced sounds of ¡Chiringa!. Lead singer Shireen Amini has been a staple in the Bend music scene, bringing her Latin-flavored jams to the masses. ¡Chiringa! brings together local musicians Johnny Riordan on congas and timbales, Tom Freedman on bass and trumpet and Matthew Williams on drum kit.

“I didn’t necessarily ever plan to have a Latin fusion band or do a Latin album in my music career, though I had written salsas before,” Amini says.

“When I threw this band together years ago for a Cinco de Mayo festival, I realized that we could represent some complex and danceable Latin rhythms in a ‘rock band’ format, which made a lot of thirsty Latin dancers happy, but it also allowed us to blend in funk, rock, reggae styles into the sound, which I think made it more accessible to people intrigued by, but less familiar with, Latin music.” ¡Chiringa! not only appeals to the human need to dance, but also introduces Latin rhythms and culture to a music scene that, until recently, had been lacking that style. For their album release show at The Old Stone Church on Friday, June 23, ¡Chiringa! Brings in local Latin dancer and instructor Andrés Garcia to provide dance lessons ahead of the band’s performance.

Their partnership with Garcia helps connect prospective Latin dance students with a knowledgeable teacher.

“For this show, we wanted to give our attendees as much bang for their buck as possible. Food, dance lesson and great music,” Amini says. “We hope they will

hen your father is a country music legend, the odds are good that some of that talent flows through your veins. But don’t write Shooter Jennings off as a carbon copy of his father (though he did play him in the Johnny Cash biopic, “Walk the Line”). Son of Waylon Jennings, Shooter has established his own name and reputation in “outlaw” country music.

The younger Jennings has his own set of influences and surprised everyone with his latest release “Countach (For Giorgio).”

“Countach (For Giorgio)” pays tribute to electronic music pioneer Giorgio Moroder. You heard that right, electronic music. Moroder, an Italian singer, songwriter, DJ and record producer, often gets credit as being the father of electronic dance music. You may recognize his work from the score of “Scarface” and “The Neverending Story,” the latter of which Jennings cites as a major influence of his musical foundation.

country musicians recording studio.

Whether—or not—you’re as excited about a blues/country take on the electronic music of Moroder as some of us, Jennings also performs the outlaw country he’s best known for.

Waymore’s Outlaws, the band formerly knows as The Waylors, features members of his famous father’s backup band. This current run with Waymore’s Outlaws will also be their final.

Jennings captured the performances with a Record Store Day live release on April 22. “Shooter Jennings & Waymore’s Outlaws: Live” was recorded at two shows in West Virginia and North Carolina, featuring Waylon classics and songs from Shooter’s catalog.

For fans of Southern rock, blues, outlaw country and, surprisingly, electronic music, there’s something for everyone when Jennings performs.

For fans of Southern rock, blues, outlaw country and, surprisingly, electronic music, there's something for everyone when Jennings performs.

For “Countach,” Jennings recruited some big names, who you may or may not have paired with him in the past. For “The Neverending Story,” Jennings duets with indie folk-rock badass Brandi Carlile in a dreamy, ‘80s-esque tribute to Moroder. “Cat People,” a David Bowie cover, pairs Jennings with the Antichrist Superstar himself, Marilyn Manson. Jennings interprets the songs of Moroder through a tasteful and refined lens. That and lots of synthesizers, something not too common in a Shooter Jennings

CULTURE

Summer Reads

Curl up in a hammock with one—or many—of these books this season

By Tom Beans, Dudley’s Bookshop Cafe

With eclipse madness ready to descend on Central Oregon, what better way to get in the mood? This is the story of the scientists (including Thomas Edison) who risked their lives to cross the frontier to view the 1878 eclipse that passed over the Rockies. If you like your unknown history served up in the vein of Nathaniel Philbrick or Timothy Egan, this one should be at the top of your list.

“Alone on the Wall” by Alex Honnold

“Magpie Murders” by Anthony Horowitz A pitch-perfect homage to the Golden Age of crime stories, this mystery within a mystery is one of the best whodunnits to come around in a long time. When an editor receives the manuscript for the next in a series of mystery novels, she lets you know right in chapter one that her life was changed because of it. From there you get to read the book she’s editing- a 1950s, Agatha Christie-esque English countryside murder mystery. Horowitz, who also writes for the BBC on “Midsomer Murders” and “Foyle’s War,” intertwines the past and present flawlessly and I’m willing to bet you won’t solve it before the big reveal. It’s as clever as can be and you’ll see it on bestseller lists all Summer long.

No big Russian classics here. No political books or selfimprovement titles, either. It’s summer reading time and that means all of these books are just plain fun.You’ve earned it.

Honnold famously just completed the first free solo climb of El Capitan. In four hours. No ropes, no gear, just a man, a chalk bag, and a really big wall. Now in paperback, this collection of essays about other world-class climbs Honnold has pulled off is perfect for every rock junkie.

“The Rise and Fall of D.O.D.O” by Neal Stephenson and Nicole Galland What if magic used to exist until 1851? What if some boot-strapped government organization decided to travel back in time to bring it back?

What are the odds they’ll get it right? Odds are poor but the telling of it all makes for the perfect sort of summer read: fast-paced and humorous with that, “I’ll just read one more chapter” feel.

Stephenson has written some modern sci-fi classics (“Snow Crash”, “Cryptonomicon,” “Seveneves”) but having a co-writer should make this mix of quantum physics, history, and witchcraft appeal to just about everyone.

“The Apache Wars: The Hunt for Geronimo, the Apache Kid, and the Captive Boy Who Started the Longest War in American History” by Paul Hutton We’re suckers for great, narrative Western history at Dudley’s and it doesn’t get much better than this. The title says it all, so if you enjoyed "Short Nights of the Shadow Catcher," "Empire of the Summer Moon," or "Blood and Thunder," you’re in for a treat.

“But What If We’re Wrong?” by Chuck Klosterman Through interviews with a wide range of experts, Klosterman manages to challenge our assumptions about, well, everything. From science to sports, music to literature, there are countless cases of widely held beliefs that eventually were proven wrong. The examples are fascinating and it makes you wonder what we’re getting wrong right now. A real mind-bender of a book that’ll stick with you.

Quick Picks Fiction

Non-Fiction

The three queens of modern literary fiction, Ann Patchett, Louise Erdrich, Annie Proulx — all have new titles in paperback. Each book is an award winner and deservedly so. Don Winslow’s newest novel, “The Force,” just hit shelves and the reviews are fantastic. If you like your cops dirty, this one’s for you. Elizabeth Strout returns to Lucy Barton’s hometown in her latest collection of short stories, “Anything Is Possible.” Arundhati Roy is back with her first book in over 20 years, “The Ministry of Utmost Happiness.”

Adventure Journal #5 just arrived and it’s as good as ever. A great read to take along on your weekend camping trip. Neil deGrasse Tyson, everyone’s favorite scientist, is back with his perfect brand of mind-expanding, big-picture questions about the universe. “Astrophysics For People in a Hurry” brings those ideas down to earth in short, succinct, and oh-so-interesting chapters. Dan White’s “Under The Stars” takes a look at how our love of camping came to be such a big part of the summer experience.

If all else fails, shove an old paperback from Abbey, Thoreau, Whitman, or Stegner in your pack, hit the trail, and be grateful we live where we do. SW

oet Emily Carr doesn’t usually write about the places where she’s currently living. By the time she’s absorbed the feeling of a place enough to write about it, she says she’s often onto the next adventure. But having now spent four-plus years in Bend as the Program Director for OSU-Cascades’ MFA in Creative Writing program, Carr says this place has stuck with her enough to warrant the crafting of a poem.

As it happens, that poem goes live in the digital poetry journal, “Under a Warm Green Linden,” the day this paper hits stands, June 21.

Carr says the poem, titled, “It’s Not Your Fault,” was inspired by spending time at Bend’s Crux Fermentation Project, known for its dazzling sunsets over the Cascades. The poem’s opening lines speak (for me) to the lightness and innocence of summer: this is how the world wants to be children run with halfeaten popsicles water the trashcan with their pistols shooting blanks shooting blanks shooting “I am staying put here,” Carr tells me. “So this is new for me, this relationship to place, this idea of staying put and not writing about it after I’ve moved on.”

Carr says she tends to “think of a place as a character—to have animacy and agency and emotions and feelings and things like that—so I need to feel like all of that is happening before a place will come into my work.”

It’s not all that strange to see a Bend-based poet finding inspiration from a site serving the golden beverage so loved in “Beer Town, USA.” Though when it comes to beer-related inspiration, Carr seems to give as well as she gets. Her chapbook titled, “Whosoever Has Let a Minotaur Enter Them, Or a Sonnet,” published by McSweeney’s in 2016, inspired Paul Arney at

Bend’s Ale Apothecary to name the “Minotaur” brew after her work.

Carr continues to collaborate with Ale Apothecary, saying she’ll soon be the company’s tasting room “poet in residence,” giving people what she calls a “fun, casual, personalized experience of poetry.” She can also be found at some First Fridays in downtown Bend, doing “poetry fortune tellings” that give people bite-sized, personalized poems.

Having moved around throughout her life, Carr has been able to draw inspiration from a number of locales. She earned her BA from the University of Missouri, then moved onto medical school before realizing that poetry was her true calling.

“My parents always wanted me to be a doctor, and then mid-career, like in my 40s, move to being a doctor half time and a poet half time.

So… when I was in medical school that was the trajectory I was on, but after the first year it became really clear that, A., being 40 is a long time to wait and then B., doing it half time wasn’t going to be satisfying for me. I wanted to be a poet full time,” Carr says.

That led her to earning an MFA from the University of North Carolina-Wilmington and a Ph.D. from the University of Calgary. Her written works have earned her a number of accolades, including winning the New Measures Poetry Prize in 2009 for her second work of poetry, “13 Ways of Happily: Books 1 & 2,” and being a finalist in the National Poetry Series in 2011.

While continuing to write works of her own, her time in Bend has been largely occupied with the duties of administrator; shaping students’ minds to believe that poetry is still a valuable skill in the modern world.

“We do actually as poets have all these skills that are very, very useful. And rather than complaining that people don’t care about poetry or they think it’s difficult or they’re scared or

e rc ou

underappreciated or whatever, is just to be like, OK, it’s part of my job as a poet to show the world how I am useful.”

Poets may be known to be creative people— but they have to use that creativity not just in the work, but in learning to share their value with the world, Carr says. For instance, participating in workshops and critiques is an integral part of a creative writer’s education—but something that can come with a lot of painful feedback. That skill of giving and receiving constructive feedback is one that can be translated into many facets of life—especially in a political world mired by so much vitriol.

“Use value’ is defined by an exchange of money. So if you choose to do something that is not valued in terms of money, then I think you really have to develop your own internalized notions of what is successful, so you can keep doing it and thrive,” Carr says.

As for her work with the indie publishing titan, McSweeney’s—started by author Dave Eggers—Carr says she loves that the publishers put the same “care and intention and beauty” into the physical book as she does into the words.

Speaking about “Minotaur,” she says, “the cover is just so beautiful, the interior is gorgeous, and they allowed me to be involved, to be difficult—my publication was delayed by like about a year and a half because I wasn’t satisfied with how the book was turning out. And they were cool with that.”

Even more unique is that McSweeney’s fact-checks the works—even the poems. Carr describes how the publishers fact-checked a line in one of her poems about “the sheep of snow lying down amongst the curbs.”

“They didn’t care about the sheep of snow,” Carr says. “They were worried about whether you could be ‘amongst curbs.’”

No alternative facts here, apparently. “This is factual poetry,” Carr says, laughing. SW

Central Oregon’s Pride Celebration has grown from a small picnic to a full day of inclusive fun

Let’s start with the entertainment: Dykes on Bikes.

Purple Queen. Lady Dice. Maurice’s Fashion Show.

Plus, Detroit’s award-winning R&B singer Alise King.

And your mistress of ceremonies for rather eclectic lineup? Why, it’s the lovely Poison Waters. Add it all up and you get just one word: Pride.

The 13th Annual Central Oregon Pride Celebration, to be exact. It’s the extravagant, rainbow-fueled Drake Park mega-party the Human Dignity Coalition throws each year as part of its effort to promote equality for Central Oregon’s LGBTQ community. Six hours of free family-friendly entertainment, 70 vendor and nonprofit booths, live music, food, drinks and fun. There’s even a designated “Kid Zone” complete with a 300-squarefoot bounce house.

“We’re an all-inclusive and family-oriented Pride celebration, inviting everyone in to join us for a day of music and festivities as a united community,” says HDC Community Organizer Cait Boyce, who expects at least 8,000 people to attend.

No wonder they call it the “Disco on the Desert.”

Besides the fun and games, there’s an underlying message that organizers and participants take very seriously: It hasn’t always been this way. “Pride has become increasingly popular with more and more community support,” says Central Oregon Pride Director Megan Stackhouse. “We started as a quiet picnic and have turned into a huge festival that the community has embraced.”

She’s right. Check out the booths and you’ll find everything from banks to religious groups to Planned Parenthood. And there you have perhaps the most important element of all: Acceptance.

“No matter your age, gender, race, religion or political view, we are a safe and nurturing environment,” says Boyce. “HDC and Central Oregon Pride work hard to embrace everyone in our community—and to bring that love and acceptance to all of Central Oregon.”

And finally, Stackhouse adds: “I invite everyone to dress up, bring your family and friends and enjoy the celebration!” SW

A Very Juicy Summer

Sunriver and Fort George join the haze-o-lution

Try 3-Way or Vermont Vacation for your recommended fruit-juice intake.

W

henever a new fad comes up out of nowhere—whether it’s fidget spinners, Hypercolor T-shirts, or any smartphone game ever—the backlash usually follows pretty quickly after. So it is with the “haze thing,” as one frustrated employee at a large Oregon brewery put it not long ago.

The craze for so-called “New England IPAs” is undoubtedly reaching its pinnacle across the States as the clock takes us to summer. Take a stroll around the smaller craft breweries of the U.S.—the newer and more obscure ones in particular—and it’s almost a lock that they’ve released an opaque IPA that goes overboard on Azacca and Citra hops for an almost fruit juice-like quality. Chances are it was released in 4-packs of plain cans, often with a sticker hand-slapped on it, and chances are people have tried to sell it on gray-market Facebook groups for far beyond face value.

This is exactly how small, regional outfits such as Monkish in SoCal, Tree House in Massachusetts and even an Austin, Texas brewpub named Pinthouse Pizza have earned national attention. Release a decent NEIPA, let the lines run out the door, and ride the craze. Traditionalists might howl at them—the lack of clarity, missing head, and chunks of yeast floating around violate well near everything they teach at brewing school—but it’s undoubtedly something new in an industry eternally looking for the next new thing.

Now it’s firmly Oregon’s turn. The 2017 edition of Fort George Brewery’s 3-Way IPA is now floating around bar taps and beer shops, and it’s arguably the most “authentic” hazy beer to go on sale in Bend proper. Every year, the Astoria-based outfit releases an IPA

collaboration between itself and two other Pacific Northwest breweries, and in ’17 it’s between Fort George, Seattle-based Reuben’s Brews, and Great Notion Brewing in Portland.

Great Notion, of course, is the outfit that opened in early 2016 and is already having to launch a second, 30-barrel facility in northwest Portland just to keep up with demand for Juice Box and the rest of their IPA lineup.

And while it’s a collaboration, the final 3-Way might as well have been labeled a Great Notion product. Fort George jokingly describes it as “juicy, light in color, juicy and fruit-forward, extra juicy, with oats and wheat for a smooth, juicy mouthfeel,” and there’s really not much to add beyond that. It’s very representative of Great Notion’s product, and whether the solidly orange IPA impresses or not, there’s nothing like it on the Oregon market.

One knock that certainly can be made on this year’s 3-Way is that— unlike previous collabs—it’s just not very hoppy-tasting, at least by Oregon standards. For a truly NW-NEIPA (?) experience, head over to Sunriver Brewing and try their Vermont Vacation IPA this summer. It shares a lot of properties with 3-Way, from the murky color to the Citra-hop fruity taste, but it’s also got more than a whiff of the hop bitterness locals have been enjoying from their “mainstream” IPAs for years.

47 METERS DOWN: A thriller about two young

women on vacation who get trapped in a shark cage...47 meters down. Some critics are saying this movie is an absolute blast and others are calling it the worst shark movie since “Sharknado.” Either way, it will be very entertaining. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX.

ALIEN: COVENANT: Ridley Scott dives back

IT COMES AT NIGHT: Every year sees one

horror movie get all the discussion about being THE SCARIEST THING EVER OMGGG!!! “It Comes at Night” is this year's mega-hyped suspense/horror thriller. It might live up to the hype but, sadly, they usually don't. This follows a husband who is protecting his family from an unseen force outside their home. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

into the universe of his classic “Alien” franchise after 2012's disappointing “Prometheus.” This one looks much more keyed into the series' horror roots and should be a fun, nostalgic trip back to the xenomorph's home planet. Plus, James Franco is in this and watching him get killed by an alien is on my bucket list. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX.

MEGAN LEAVEY: Based on the true story of a

ALL EYEZ ON ME: It was bound to happen

THE MUMMY: Tom Cruise once again takes a shot at launching a massive franchise with only his good looks and a dream. Who does he think he is...

Vin Diesel? Anyway, this is a pretty terrible reboot of the “Mummy” movies that will probably lose money for everyone involved. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House. Redmond Cinema.

BAYWATCH: The Rock was born to play a

MY COUSIN RACHEL: A young Englishman finds his cousin dead and vows revenge against his aforementioned cousin's missing wife. Obviously, when he finds her they fall in love and all sorts of terrible things happen. It sounds like a lush psychological thriller and since Rachel Weisz plays the titular Rachel, it's going to be beautifully acted.

Sisters Movie House

eventually: a biopic based on the life of Tupac Shakur. Let's hope it's more like the excellent “Straight Out of Compton” and less like the horrible Biggie movie “Notorious.” It is truly amazing how much actor Demetrius Shipp Jr. looks like Tupac, though. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

lifeguard, but this movie barely has a single laugh throughout its running time. It's still fun to watch him flex his way through the goofiness, but this is the kind of movie Redbox was invented for. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

THE BOOK OF HENRY: From the director of “Jurassic World” comes a movie so poorly conceived that it's hard to know whether to laugh or cry. The film follows a young boy who enlists his mother in helping a neighbor he thinks is being abused. It's apparently so bad that some critics are wondering whether the filmmakers had ever even met children before. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX CAPTAIN UNDERPANTS: Based on the

series of beloved books, “Captain Underpants” tells the story of a hypnotized principal who becomes the titular superhero. The cast is stacked with hilarious performers including Kevin Hart, Ed Helms, Jordan Peele, Kristen Schaal and many more. Give this one a shot and you'll be surprised at how funny and heartwarming something called “Captain Underpants” can be. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

CARS 3: The continuing adventures of Lightning McQueen and Pixar's most annoying creation: Mater. I know the kids like him but, holy hell, what did we do to deserve Larry the Cable Guy in our ears for another 90 minutes? C'mon Pixar, you're better than this. See full review on p51. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Redmond Cinema.

CITIZEN JANE: BATTLE FOR THE CITY: A

documentary about Jane Jacobs, an urban activist who fought to help preserve New York during the 1960s. A beautiful look at one of the greatest cities on the planet through the lens of a true American original. Tin Pan Theater

GOING IN STYLE: A comedy/heist movie

starring Michael Caine, Morgan Freeman and Alan Arkin sounds like a great time at the movies, that’s no mystery. What is a mystery, however, is why Zach Braff from “Scrubs” is directing this? Sisters’ Movie House, Redmond Cinema

GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY VOL. 2:

Marvel Studios strikes again with its most colorful and bizarre adventure yet. If you love Star Lord, Gamora, Drax, Nebula, Rocket and Groot, then this is an unmissable addition to the cinematic universe. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

female Marine corporal and her military combat dog. The film is being hailed as one of the finest feel-good movies in years, which is great since there's a dog involved. Blow up people all you want, Hollywood, but leave the animals alone! Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX.

PARIS CAN WAIT: Diane Lane and Alec Baldwin star in a romantic road trip comedy through the highways and byways of France. This should be a lovely diversion for the grownups in the audience.

Tin Pan Theater. Sisters Movie House.

PIRATES OF THE CARIBBEAN: DEAD MEN TELL NO TALES: Johnny Depp returns

to the franchise that gave him his last hit film several years ago. Even with Javier Bardem as the villain, the advanced word on this one is terrible.

Since this franchise is critic-proof, however, it'll still probably make a billion dollars. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

ROUGH NIGHT: In the spirit of “Bridesmaids”

and “Very Bad Things” comes a star studded comedy about a bachelorette party that goes horribly wrong when the women accidentally kill a male stripper. I hope they all learn a valuable lesson because male strippers are people too and he was probably working his way through college or something. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX. Sisters Movie House. Redmond Cinema.

SPAGHETTI WESTERN WEDNESDAY: $8 gets you an All-U-Can-eat spaghetti dinner and a hootin’ and hollerin’ good time watching old Western classics. Tin Pan Theater WONDER WOMAN: Finally, a big screen adaptation of one of the most beloved superheroes in history. It's amazing that it took this long.

Advanced word is that the DC Extended Universe has finally gotten it right with this one in ways they failed with “Batman Vs. Superman” and “Suicide Squad.” History has been made with this film.

Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House, Redmond Cinema THE ZOOKEEPER’S WIFE: Jessica Chastain plays the loving wife of a zookeeper as the Nazis overtake Poland. She and her husband help hide fleeing Jews throughout their zoo. This one looks like a tearjerker. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX.

Find the "Radiance in Resistance"

VOLUME 21 ISSUE 25 / June 22, 2017 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

Don’t let the sun go down on these people.

To get into a discussion of the IsraeliPalestinian conflict is to open oneself to a myriad of opinions and emotions. Everyone has a strong view of what should happen and is expected to pick a side without much room for nuance or the multiple shades of gray that make up such a complicated and heart- rending situation.

Locals Jesse Roberts of Rise Up International and Jesse Locke of AMZ Productions wanted to make a film focused on the refugee experience and headed to Palestine to see what they could do.

The film “Radiance of Resistance” is the fruit of those labors and a powerfully eye-opening work of art. We asked Locke a few questions about the life-changing experience:

Source Weekly: What was your initial reasoning for getting involved with the film? What made this a story you needed to tell?

Jesse Locke: I was asked by Jesse Roberts of Rise Up International two years ago to go with him to Palestine to help him film a documentary there. I had no idea what was going on over there, but it was an opportunity I knew I couldn’t pass up. So I went, and when you are in Palestine there is no denying how amazing these people are and how horrible the situation is there. So once I met these incredible Palestinians, there was no other answer than tell their tale and try to do them justice.

SW: What was your largest concern while filming?

JL: There were many concerns while filming. We were involved in their weekly demonstrations against the Israeli forces near their village. We were tear-gassed on two separate occasions. So there was a fear of being physically injured a few times. The biggest fear for me was getting our footage out of the country. We flew out of Tel-Aviv and they are known for their interrogation tactics and seizing any footage/equipment etc. that might paint the Israelis in a bad light. They do not want people going to Palestine and filming, and they try very hard to prevent that from happening. So it was a huge relief when I passed through security with the hard drive still on my person.

SW: What do you hope people take away from the film?

JL: My number one goal for this film (especially for the American audiences) is to slowly break down the fears and stereotypes that a large majority of people have regarding Muslims and Arabic culture in general. They are not all terrorists who want to kill you. These are some of the kindest and bravest people I’ve ever met. They welcome you with open arms. At the end of the day they are just like me or you, trying to provide a

living for their family and get through another day.

A huge difference is that for them to get through their day they have to deal with an Israeli military occupation that constantly harasses and intimidates them.

SW: Do you see an end to the fight in our lifetime? In our kids’ lifetimes?

JL: It was very hard going over there this last time. The Palestinian people as a whole are very defeated. With the election of Trump and the constant construction of more settlements, they feel like there is no hope. I asked many of them, “What is the first step in trying to change the current situation?” and they just looked at me, shook their heads, and said: “There is no solution.” It’s very sad. So no I don’t think that this situation will be solved in my lifetime or in our kids’ lifetimes.

SW: How can Americans effect change over there?

JL: The number one things I would like Americans to do is to open their minds. Understand that there is a big world out there. That these things are happening right now! Not in some history book. Stay away from painting a whole entire culture with one quick brush stroke. Don’t let fear blind your judgment. If you have questions then get out there and research it. Don’t take the media’s word for it. Find out for yourself.

Another way Americans can effect change would be to get behind the BDS (Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions) movement. The BDS works to end international support for Israel’s oppression of the Palestinians.

Driving Me Crazy "Cars 3" is a drag...race

By Jared Rasic

Don’t they look like they’re conspiring to kill us all?

I

think my favorite thing about the third movie in the “Cars” franchise isn’t the story, characters or animation, but the fact that it doesn’t acknowledge the direly terrible second movie at all. I’m a diehard Pixar fanatic (does that make me a “Pixiehead?”), so I’ll go see their latest offering no matter what, but the “Cars” movies are definitely my least favorite pocket of their universe.

If one vehicle is born a racecar, could they later become an ambulance or ice cream truck?

There’s a beautiful beating heart to all of Pixar’s movies. Whether it’s the bittersweet notes of growing up in the “Toy Story” movies, the push to follow your passion in “Ratatouille” or the grief-stricken longing of “Up,” Pixar makes films that children can love and can also move the adults. If the first “Cars” movie is about the dangers of hubris and the second is about accepting your limitations, the third one focuses on not giving up on ourselves.

The problem is that all of these thematic concerns play themselves out on the surface, without giving the adults much to latch onto. Personally, I think what’s more interesting about the “Cars” movies is the universe they take place in and the questions they raise, such as: What happened to all the people? If there are no people then why do all the cars have door handles? Did humanity evolve into the cars or did the cars eat all the people and become

anthropomorphized because of all the human meat in their bellies? Are the cars born or do they get made? Am I thinking too much about these children’s films or is something more sinister going on and the “Cars” series are actually horror movies?

If I was involved in the generic characters or simple storyline, I wouldn’t be trying to come up with answers to all these questions (here’s another: If one of the vehicles is born, say, a racecar, does that mean they have to be a racecar or could they later decide to become an ambulance or an ice cream truck?).

“Cars 3” is definitely better than the second one since it recaptures a bit of the missing heart of that film, but also because it focuses much less on Mater, the redneck tow truck played by Dan Whitney, AKA the white bread comedian playing the character of Larry the Cable Guy. Mater is a franchise killer (as he almost proved with the second movie), so this one wisely keeps him sidelined for most of the runtime. Like nails on a chalkboard, that guy.

Pixar can do better than this with their sequels. “Toy Story 3,” “Monsters University” and “Finding Dory” all proved these properties can be mined for new story ideas. Yet for some reason, the “Cars” franchise feels like the first truly cynical output from Pixar, where the creators have always seemed to be more interested in telling good stories than selling merchandise. Your kids might see this and want a Lightning McQueen lunchbox, but I just want my sense of wonder back—and maybe to fight Randy Newman. SW

O OUTSIDE Summer’s With the official arrival of summer, here are five hikes

you should do right now—before the extreme heat, the big crowds, and so on…

1. Tam-a-lau Trail at the Cove Palisades State Park This 7-mile hike starts out steep but levels off on the top of a bluff, Kirk advises. You’ll quickly rise 600 feet, and then even out and do a loop around the rest of the peninsula.

“The views of Mount Jefferson can’t be beat,” Kirk described. “All of the mountains are almost sitting on a platter wearing their white puffy jackets.”

In addition to the views, you’ll also be able to see much more of the cliffs that surround Lake Billy Chinook.

If this is an area where you want to spend more time (and maybe cool off in the water) there are also campsites and RV hookups that you can reserve ahead of time. A day pass ($5, can be purchased onsite) or an annual State Park pass ($30) is required. // OregonStateParks.org 2. Bessie Butte If you’ve grown tired of Pilot Butte and you want something a little less popular, Bessie Butte is a great alternative, Kirk suggested. The elevation profiles are almost the same, and there’s a maintained trail to take you to the summit. Once you’ve hiked the .75-mile trail to the top, you’ll see a panorama view of the Cascades and a different view of the city of Bend.

Bessie Butte is tucked out of the way on the southeast side of Bend, off China Hat Road. For a bonus adventure, head farther east and check out Arnold Ice Cave. // FS.USDA.gov 3. Oregon Badlands Wilderness It can be easy to take that quintessential Central Oregon landscape for granted, but the Flatiron Rock Trail might help you re-appreciate the “three ingredients of Central Oregon hikes: the juniper trees, sage and lava rock,” Kirk said about this area. On this 5-mile hike you’ll see plenty of all.

There are even lava rock outcroppings you can scramble up, providing you’re confident in your ability to get down.

“The landscape is fairly flat, allowing for easy exploration through a forest of ancient junipers, some

estimated to be over 1,000 years old,” Kirk explained. // BLM.gov 4. Whychus Canyon Preserve The 930-acre area is home to many hikes of varying difficulties. Some are short and mostly flat, and others, like Alder Springs, are longer (5+ miles) with more elevation gain. Alder Springs would be a great hike on a hot day because you have to cross the springs to continue, and there is no bridge, so you’re likely to get at least a little wet.

The Deschutes Land Trust website is a great resource if you want to explore along Whychus Creek, since there are so many options for where to go. // BLM. gov, DeschutesLandTrust.org 5. Glass Butte You’ll have to do a little road tripping for this hike, but if you have kids and they can handle hanging out in the car for 80 miles, this would be a great hike for them—especially if they enjoy collecting things, Kirk recommended.

Glass Butte is covered in obsidian, and on this butte it’s free to collect and take home.

“There are great views but this is one of the few hikes where I spend more time looking down,” Kirk said, laughing. “It’s not a matter of finding a piece of obsidian, it’s which piece do you want to take home.”

This hike is halfway between Bend and Burns, and is best to do in the spring or fall, before it gets too hot, Kirk recommended. // FS.USDA.GOV SW

Public pressure forces Deschutes National Forest to speed up re-opening timeline

By Magdalena Bokowa

L

eaders from the Deschutes National Forest have reversed their initial decision to close the campground at Cultus Lake for the summer.

Earlier this month, the Forest Service announced the closure of the day-use area and surrounding campground for the rest of the 2017 season, after an in-depth review found at least 160 dead and 300 infected trees that could fall on unsuspecting campers. But when that decision resulted in many complaints from people who had already reserved spots, officials changed their game plan.

“Our goal is to reopen the campground by mid-summer,” Jean Nelson-Dean, public affairs officer for the Deschutes National Forest, told the Source Weekly Tuesday. “We are currently marking trees and putting out a bid for a contractor for removal,” Nelson-Dean said. For now, the campground is still closed.

Forest Service officials initially said removal could not go ahead until after Sep. 30, due to the area being a breeding habitat for the endangered northern spotted owl, protected under the Northwest Forest Plan and the Deschutes National Forest Plan.

These protections require the removal of trees to occur in the fall — outside of the owl’s breeding season.

Following the announcement of the closure, co-owner of Cultus Lake Resort, Sandi Campbell, rallied supporters on her Facebook page to make phone calls and write letters to both the Forest Service and Rep. Greg Walden in a bid to mitigate the decision. In a June 13 statement, Walden reflected that the decision was “alarming considering the well-known value of Cultus Lake to summertime recreation in central Oregon...that the Forest Service missed an opportunity to remove hazard trees to ensure the safety of forest users and allowed this situation to reach the point of closure is unacceptable.”

According to Campbell, the Forest Service has already removed hazardous trees around the boat ramp area, which reopened to the public June 16. All boat-in campsites remain open around the lake, including Big Cover, West Cultus and Little Cove.

Cultus Lake is a popular area in the Cascade Lakes, due to it being one of the few lakes that allow high-speed motorized boats. SW

T

he Cascade Lakes Highway is finally open past Mt. Bachelor, cyclists are gleefully riding along the Mckenzie Highway while the cars wait, and with warmer weather upon us, you have no excuse for not getting out and doing some hiking.

Even if every day doesn’t offer that coveted “true summer” weather, you can still see some spectacular views while hitting the trails. Here are five hikes you can do right now, recommended by Kolby Kirk, a local hiking enthusiast who has thru-hiked part of the Pacific Crest Trail, in addition to hiking many trails in the Bend area.

Pro Tips: Before you head out to the trails, be prepared for almost anything, Kirk advised. This time of year it can be 75 degrees one day and snowing the next day—so it’s even more important to bring several layers, sun protection, extra food and water. For these hikes you probably won’t need sturdy hiking boots, Kirk said, but you will want shoes with good tread.

Modern-day “dinosaur” — with a mouse.

July 7-9

3 DAYS IN THE HEART OF DOWNTOWN BEND

“The Soul Of Music” Marlina Vera

time, my uncles and I staged “cock fights” by having mock battles with the legs and feet.

Hey, don’t knock it! We didn’t have television, tablets or cell phones in those days; therefore it was necessary to continually invent new and exciting games.

(Like “slide-ass soccer,” a violent game we played in winter on the living room rug in which you couldn’t lift your fanny off the floor to move—kick—the soccer ball.)

When I was eight, I discovered that chickens have gizzards. When I was 30, I discovered that dinosaurs also had gizzards when my mentor, Phil Brogan, showed me a whole cigar-box full of beautiful, agatized fossil rocks that he identified as, “dinosaur gizzard stones.”

At first I thought I was being bamboozled, but Phil was a man of absolute integrity; if he said they were gizzard stones, they were gizzard stones.

In our home, we keep a container under the sink known as the “chicken bucket,” in which leftover food scraps are deposited. One day I emptied it into a pan in the chicken yard, and a live (but unlucky) mouse dropped into the chicken’s pen.

I wish you could have seen the chickens go after that poor mouse! You think cats are good at catching mice? Hah! Cats can’t hold a candle to volicichickens. I had hens that can outrun the raptors of “Jurassic Park!”

One old hen grabbed the mouse by the nose and slammed it to the ground like she was beating a rug. Wham!

Wham! Wham! The mouse was defunct.

Two others dashed over and grabbed the mouse away from the first one, and then about four more began to chase around the yard with it. Within minutes, mouse parts vanished down gullets of the winners.

Watching my chickens before my neighbor’s dog moved in, as they went about their day-to-day activities —Especially when I turned them loose in the afternoon so they could feast upon my thriving grasshopper population—is like observing a herd of small, meat-eating dinosaurs of the past. Maybe that so-called Chinese fake fossil wasn’t too far off the mark… SW

MUSIC FAMILY BEER WINE ART FOOD CONSCIOUS LIVING

have an old National Geographic article from November ‘99 with a story in it about an Archaeoraptor, a so-called fossil eventually found to be a fake. According to another article written in USA Today, the so-called “missing link” dinosaur/ bird is actually two animals pieced together—either as an honest mistake made by its discoverers in China—or a fabulous phony.

The composite consists of a birdlike upper torso and the tail and feet of a small raptor, and described as a “true missing link in the complex chain that connects dinosaurs and birds.”

Cope & Marsh, two early paleontologists who prowled the western United States in the late 1800s and early 1900s, stealing one another’s fossils, were forever trying to better each other. One even shot himself in the foot when he put the wrong head on the wrong dinosaur. No one’s perfect.

The Asian specimen was (allegedly) smuggled into the United States from China, and popped up at a gem show in Tucson, found by Stephen Czerkas, then the owner of the Dinosaur Museum in Monticello, Utah. He apparently purchased it for $80,000 and made a deal with National Geographic to study and publicize it and ultimately return it to China—where people may be happy to have it back.

Be-that-as-it-may, I could show you living proof in my backyard that my chickens are very close relatives of at least one dinosaur, the velociraptor— and I‘d be happy to sell you one for a lot less than 80 grand—if I had any left. My neighbor’s dog killed them all.

I’m not a biologist or paleontologist, but based on what I have observed with chickens, in my book they’re not far removed from the ferocious velociraptor of “Jurassic Park” fame and fortune.

First, look at a chicken’s anatomy. It runs like a scaled down dinosaur because it has a skeleton similar to a lizard; you can see where scales change to feathers on their legs, and zoologists will tell you that feathers are nothing more than modified scales. Then there are the rooster’s spurs, used to kill and maim other roosters (and my legs). They’re very similar to appendages the velociraptor of old used to slice up other animals.

When I was a kid on my grandfather’s farm in Connecticut, I had a lot of experience with chickens. After a chicken was killed (on its journey from hen yard to supper table by chopping of the poor thing’s head) I had the job of dunking it in boiling water (to loosen the feathers); then I’d pluck the feathers and draw it. “Drawing” a chicken was my grandmother’s polite term for cutting off the legs and removing the guts.

Because of the rooster’s sharp spurs (and a wonderful imagination and too much time on our hands) a lot of the

Out of Reach 2017 Report for Oregon

T

$199,000 - $499,000

The report shows the Deschutes County fair market rent for a 1-bedroom apartment to be $857 per month and a 2-bedroom apartment to be $1,231 per month. This translates to wages of $14.10 per hour required to afford a 1 bedroom, $16.48 for a 2 bedroom, and $23.67 for a 3 bedroom. The hours of work required per week at mean renter wage are 43 hours for a 1 bedroom, 50 hours for a 2-bedroom, and 72 hours for a 3-bedroom. In other words, the annual income needed to afford fair market rent is $29,320 for a 1-bedroom, $34,280 for a 2-bedroom and $49,240 for a 3-bedroom.

Reviewing these statistics shows how serious our housing affordability situation really is. The NLIHC website also has links to tenant advocacy, rental programs and other resources that might be helpful for those struggling with housing costs.

VOLUME 21 ISSUE 25 / June 22, 2017 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

he National Low Income Housing Coalition’s “Out of Reach” Report for 2017 shows that the median rental household in most Oregon counties cannot comfortably afford a two-bedroom apartment. As expected, Deschutes County is one of those counties. The Source has reported on this multiple times in our ongoing Housing Crisis series.

According to the report, there are 66,337 households in Deschutes County, of which 23,418 or 35 percent are renter households. The estimated mean renter wage is $13.06 per hour and the rent affordable at this wage is $679 per month. Affordability is defined as housing costs of 30 percent or less of income, and this is what the HUD housing vouchers are based upon. The concern is that when more than 30 percent of income is spent on housing, there’s not enough for basic necessities.

SCIENCE ADVICE GODDESS The Great Wall Of Vagina

My girlfriend of two years had me help her download photos from her phone, and I found about two dozen close-ups of her private parts. She said she was “just curious.” Well, okay, but why not use a mirror? Besides, she’s in her 30s. Surely, she knows what her parts look like without a photo shoot. Do you think she took these to send to another guy?

SERVICES Happy at Home Pet Sitting

Men aren’t used to women being preoccupied with their girl-parts. Even in Redneckville, you never see a woman hanging a rubber replica of hers off the back of her pickup.

The truth is, not all women went for a look-see down there with a hand mirror at age 14. Recently, some women may have gotten inspired to do some cameraphone sightseeing thanks to the increased visibility of the lady-garden via free internet porn, the mainstreaming of the waxed-bald vulva, and giant ads for labiaplasty (aka a face-lift for your vagina).

Though it’s possible that your girlfriend is texting these to other guys, consider what anthropologist Donald Symons calls the human tendency “to imagine that other minds are much like our own.” This can lead us to forget about biological sex differ-

ences, like how men, who are in no danger of getting pregnant from sex, evolved to be the less sexually discriminating half of humanity. Note that women don’t have to text photos of their naked bits to get sex; they just need to text their address and tell the guy not to dawdle.

It’s hard for many people to tell whether another person is lying, especially when they’re invested in believing otherwise.

Borrowing from research methodology, a way to figure out whether a lone ambiguous event might be meaningful — like whether the panty hamster pictorial might mean what you dread it does — is to see how much company it has. (In other words, is it part of a pattern?)

Look back on your girlfriend’s behavior over your two years together.

Does she act ethically — even when she thinks nobody’s looking? Does it, in fact, mean someAmy Alkon thing to her to do the right thing? Being honest with yourself about whether she has a pattern of ethical corner-cutting will allow you to make the best (that is, most informed) guess about whether you have something to worry about — beyond coming home to a, um, new addition to the framed photos of her parents’ anniversary and your nephew with his Little League trophy.

ASTROLOGY

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Now that you’ve

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): I suspect you will soon have an up-close and personal encounter with some form of lightning. To ensure it’s not a literal bolt shooting down out of a thundercloud, please refrain from taking long romantic strolls with yourself during a storm. Also, forgo any temptation you may have to stick your finger in electrical sockets.

What I’m envisioning is a type of lightning that will give you a healthy metaphorical jolt. If any of your creative circuits are sluggish, it will jump-start them. If you need to wake up from a dreamy delusion, the lovable lightning will give you just the right salutary shock.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept.

22): Signing up to read at the open mike segment of a poetry slam?

Buying an outfit that’s a departure from the style you’ve cultivated for years? Getting dance lessons or a past-life reading or instructions on how to hang-glide?

Hopping on a jet for a spontaneous getaway to an exotic hotspot? I approve of actions like those, Virgo. In fact, I won’t mind if you at least temporarily abandon at least 30 percent of your inhibitions.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): I don’t know what marketing specialists are predicting about color trends for the general population, but my astrological analysis has discerned the most evocative colors for you Libras. Electric mud is one. It’s a scintillating mocha hue. Visualize silver-blue sparkles emerging from moist dirt tones. Earthy and dynamic! Cybernatural is another special color for you. Picture sheaves of ripe wheat blended with the hue you see when you close your eyes after staring into a computer monitor for hours. Organic and glimmering! Your third pigment of power is “pastel adrenaline”: a mix of dried apricot and the shadowy brightness that flows across your nerve synapses when you’re taking aggressive practical measures to convert your dreams into realities. Delicious and dazzling!

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Do you ever hide

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): “We must unlearn the constellations to see the stars,” writes Jack Gilbert in his poem “Tear It Down.” He adds that “We find out the heart only by dismantling what the heart knows.” I invite you to meditate on these ideas. By my calculations, it’s time to peel away the obvious secrets so you can penetrate to the richer secrets buried beneath. It’s time to dare a world-changing risk that is currently obscured by easy risks. It’s time to find your real life hidden inside the pretend one, to expedite the evolution of the authentic self that’s germinating in the darkness.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): I often ride my bike into the hills. The transition from the residential district to open spaces is a narrow dirt path surrounded by thick woods on one side and a steep descent on the other. Today as I approached this place there was a new sign on a post. It read “Do not enter: Active beehive forming in the middle of the path.” Indeed, I could see a swarm hovering around a tree branch that juts down low over the path. How to proceed? I might get stung if I did what I usually do. Instead, I dismounted from my bike and dragged it through the woods so I could join the path on the other side of the bees. Judging from the astrological omens, Aquarius, I suspect you may encounter a comparable interruption along a route that you regularly take. Find a detour, even if it’s inconvenient.

Eclipse

2017

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): I bet you’ll be extra creative in the coming weeks. Cosmic rhythms are nudging you towards fresh thinking and imaginative innovation, whether they’re applied to your job, your relationships, your daily rhythm, or your chosen art form. To take maximum advantage of this provocative luck, seek out stimuli that will activate high-quality brainstorms. I understand that the composer André Grétry got inspired when he put his feet in ice water. Author Ben Johnson felt energized in the presence of a purring cat and by the aroma of orange peels.

I like to hang out with people who are smarter than me. What works for you?

ARIES (March 21-April 19): There are places in the oceans where the sea floor cracks open and spreads apart from volcanic activity. This allows geothermally heated water to vent out from deep inside the earth. Scientists explored such a place in the otherwise frigid waters around Antarctica. They were elated to find a “riot of life” living there, including previously unknown species of crabs, starfish, sea anemones, and barnacles. Judging from the astrological omens, Aries, I suspect that you will soon enjoy a metaphorically comparable eruption of warm vitality from the unfathomable depths.

Will you welcome and make use of these raw blessings even if they are unfamiliar and odd?

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): I’m reporting from the first annual Psychic Olympics in Los Angeles.

For the past five days, I’ve competed against the world’s top mind-readers, dice-controllers, spirit whisperers, spoon-benders, angel-wrestlers, and stock market prognosticators. Thus far I have earned a silver medal in the category of channeling the spirits of dead celebrities. (Thanks, Frida Kahlo and Gertrude Stein!) I psychically foresee that I will also win a gold medal for most accurate fortune-telling. Here’s the prophecy that I predict will cinch my victory: “People born in the sign of Taurus will soon be at the pinnacle of their ability to get telepathically aligned with people who have things they want and need.”

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): While reading Virginia Woolf, I found the perfect maxim for you to write on a slip of paper and carry around in your pocket or wallet or underwear: “Let us not take it for granted that life exists more fully in what is commonly thought big than in what is commonly thought small.” In the coming weeks, dear Gemini, I hope you keep this counsel simmering constantly in the back of your mind. It will protect you from the dreaminess and superstition of people around you.

It will guarantee that you’ll never overlook potent little breakthroughs as you scan the horizon for phantom miracles. And it will help you change what needs to be changed slowly and surely, with minimum disruption.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): When I was four years old, I loved to use crayons to draw diagrams of the solar system. It seems I was already laying a foundation for my interest in astrology. How about you, Capricorn? I invite you to explore your early formative memories. To aid the process, look at old photos and ask relatives what they remember.

My reading of the astrological omens suggests that your past can show you new clues about what you might ultimately become. Potentials that were revealed when you were a wee tyke may be primed to

behind a wall of detached cynicism? Do you protect yourself with the armor of jaded coolness? If so, here’s my proposal: In accordance with the astrological omens, I invite you to escape those perverse forms of comfort and safety. Be brave enough to risk feeling the vulnerability of hopeful enthusiasm.

Be sufficiently curious to handle the fluttery uncertainty that comes from exploring places you’re not familiar with and trying adventures you’re not totally skilled at.

All growers should work with the state toward fairness for all.

T

wo weeks ago I wrote a column about two Oregon legislative bills, one that had just been signed into law, the other was imminent in passage. I looked at what these bills might mean for the medical and recreational-use communities, and my take on the good and bad in both.

A very small portion of the readership had a very big problem with my conclusions, leading to angry five-minute voicemails, War and Peace-length responses, and some rather ugly insults and accusations.

Although I’m missing the gene that makes me care about being cursed at by trolls, I wanted to get another take. I don’t grow or retail cannabis in Oregon, so I sought input from those who do.

I phoned and texted John Sajo, director of the Umpqua Cannabis Association, who left the aforementioned voicemail, and offered him half this column to explain why he was so “offended” by what I had written. He never replied, but did write a lengthy retort on social media.

I also reached out to my friend, Jesse Peters, the CEO of Eco Firma farms, which added a rec grow earlier this year, as his med and rec grows couldn’t be co-located. Jesse is a nobullshit former Marine who works 54 hours a week as a firefighter in addition to running Eco Firma, and has greater insight than I do.

I asked for his viewpoint on what has become a rapidly polarized growing community.

“The majority of growers in Oregon are small businesses, with a handful that are big players funded by out-of-state money, but most are simply Oregonian business owners, which happen to grow and sell cannabis,” he said. “And med and rec users have both sunk tremendous money into their operations. Hell, most of us started as med growers who begged and borrowed to participate in a rec system that none of us are thrilled about. We are all worried about our livelihoods, and that’s fair.”

I asked Jesse about the 20 pounds that med growers will soon be allowed to sell into the rec market through wholesalers and processors, and if that’s a concern for him.

“I don’t want med growers to be able to sell just 20 lbs. I want them to be able to sell unlimited amounts, DIRECTLY to dispensaries, I just want that dispensary to only be allowed to sell that med flower to med patients. Patients need access, but med and rec need to stay in their respective lanes to keep the playing field fair, she said. ” “As far as med growers being burdened by high fees, that’s true, but rec are burdened by additional fees, such as high security system costs. I still have a medical grow, by the way, with every last gram given away at no charge, and that operation is losing money each and every month. I operate that grow at a loss.

“Everyone is attacking each other, when our real issues rest with the state, and not each other,” he sighed.

“We all have more in common than we do in opposition to one another. That said, while it’s difficult to run both a medical and recreational farm, I still also have a job, and a schedule like this doesn’t afford me the opportunity to attack people on Facebook 48 times a day. This leaves me curious; for a very few, is this more about lifestyle and livelihood than it truly is about patients and access?”

I asked Jesse what he sees as a solution.

“I’d love to see the state subsidize medical growers with a stipend, such as what you would find on an insurance plan. Cannabis is medicine, and we should be doing more to help patients while seeking to support med growers.

“Our shared issue is massive oversupply,” Jesse concludes. “We need to find a way to work together, and to put pressure on the state to help make both systems fair for patients and consumers.”
