hen someone vandalizes a beloved landmark, the reaction is usually disgust, mixed with a dose of “Oh, that was just kids being dumb kids.” Vandalism, as a whole, is not something people who care about their town and their quality of life typically condone.

That is, unless that vandalism contains a message against tourists. That’s what appears to have transpired, right here in our fair city.

Last week, we reported on the vandalism at iconic Pilot Butte in a blog post titled, “"Get Out Of Our Town’ Painted on Summit of Pilot Butte.” In most circumstances, having someone paint a hate message across the pavement and in the bathrooms at a place that locals and visitors alike frequent would be something that would be met with annoyance and indignation.

But in this case, much of the irritation was not directed at the vandals, but at the source of the vandals’ frustration: Tourists and visitors who don’t “live in our town.”

Following the brief post, the Source’s social media feeds were inundated with comments, many from people arguing in favor of the “get out of our town” mentality. Commenters posted GIFs with “Get the F@#$ Out” messages, rationalizing why the vandals were justified, and community members battled back and forth with other, more sensible people who seem to understand that A. not all visitors are here to stay and “ruin” Bend, and

B. that not all visitors and transplants come from “dreaded” California.

(Indeed, the majority of transplants to Central Oregon are from Oregon and Washington.)

Is this how we want to be? Are we the type of town where vandalism and hate is condoned publicly? We hope not.

To that end, we appreciate the commentator on our feed, who posted: “Ironic that some natives/longtime locals complain about newcomers acting entitled and disrespectful because that’s exactly how you come off when you act like you’re entitled to have Bend all to yourself and tell people to get out! That just adds to the negativity that you’re supposedly mad about.

Overpopulation is a problem all over the world and unfortunately, a beautiful place like Bend will not be spared from that issue. Lead by example and keep it positive. Write your elected officials, go to town halls, etc. if there are problems you want fixed.”

The impact of new visitors and tourists is going to have an impact on our community. It is incumbent on all of us to remember that there are two ways to move forward. We can be proactive in shaping the kind of city we become and embrace the changes we are facing, or we can go low, hurling insults from outside the process.

The scenery from Pilot Butte has always been amazing; let’s not let a few bad apples spoil the view. SW

IN RESPONSE TO, “GET OUT OF OUR TOWN” PAINTED ON SUMMIT OF PILOT BUTTE (7/31) Not surprising since the Source had printed a lot of letters lately complaining about Bend growing. I think the growth is great.

I would rather live in a community that is growing than dying. Some people cannot handle change. Guess what, if we don’t want change let’s go back to dial-up, corded phones and give up all of the other conveniences that a modern and growing society had developed!

As far as I am concerned, if you moved here a month ago you have a say just as a person does who was born here.

— Arden Dettwyler, via facebook.com The argument is not so much where you have migrated from, although no one expected 40,000+ Californians to take us up on the offer to not just visit Bend, but stay. Be that as it may we have more than the dreaded “Californian” who have made Bend their home. The original Bendites are upset with all the negative changes such as the small town feel leaving for a faster paced style of living associated with city people.

I can recall a bumper sticker that was going around during the population boom in the ‘90s that read, “Slow down, isn’t that why you moved here?” Symbolic of the general population at the time trying to tell

— Dylan Goodlife, via facebook.com Vandalizing our town isn’t going to put an end to movers and tourism. It’s hateful and distasteful. I would bet on the people who wrote this were transplants themselves.

Bend is a total transplant town! Most of us are from somewhere other than Bend.

People can learn to coexist and embrace it or move to some place out in the boonies.

Don’t be hater. Be nice, you’re in Bend.

That happened at the BHS stadium in the 60s. Bend was playing South Salem and somebody took bleach and paint and put SSS on the stands and in the field. They figured it either meant South Salem Stinks or South Salem Saves.

— Brady Shoe, via facebook.com Those who precipitate that sort of opinion don’t share a humanitarianism ethic of respect for others as well as respect for property that does not belong to them. It's a shame people’s agendas are so clouded with hate.

— Nicole Jackson, via facebook.com

YOU-VERSUS-THEM MENTALITY Trust me, I know about the vacation rentals littering the landscapes, but they are within their legal rights to do it. Do you blame someone for making a living off of something that is inevitable in this town? I would be more concerned about the massive hotels going up and obscuring our views and creating traffic issues.

But then again we make a lot of money off of the hospitality industry. The luxury I am referring to is a clean and safe town with tons to do and a culture that brings in great bands, artists and people alike. I have lived in many places and this is by far the best town that I have lived in. And to say most tourists don’t

care isn’t true. If a million people a year didn’t care our town would be destroyed in an instant. It’s just a you-versus-them mentality at this point. Everyone thinks that everyone else is a bad guy. It just isn’t true. People are people wherever you go.

Thank you.

I appreciated the space and words dedicated to the remembrance of Mr. Castillo.

I am guessing that you did not even think you were even going to be arrested, let alone jailed. Considering the one-is-too-many but still very high number of people who have faced jail and then prison for nonviolent drug offenses, we should be so fortunate to set up canna-businesses in prime locations and pick up on weekdays before six.

The drug-related part of this unequivocal tragedy is preceded by over-policing, subconscious racism, militarization, PTSD and well-documented infiltration by white supremacists. With this in mind — whether I’m at Tokyo Starfish or not — I think about how freedom is not black and white, positive and negative, but gray.

The police chief didn’t resign after this nightmare. It would take the death of a white woman just over two years later for that to happen. I am optimistic about change here in Oregon. The decriminalization bill is a step in the right direction for the next generation.

Philando Castillo was born in ‘83. He was in his early thirties. He lived in Minneapolis and paid the price for those gray areas.

It Ain’t All Sunny When Prepping for the Eclipse Local businesses are stocking up to be ready for the influx

By Magdalena Bokowa

Essentials: Beer, of Course Newest Bend grocery store, Market of Choice, is making contingency plans by adding in extra auxiliary refrigeration and freezer units and stocking up on non-perishables ahead of time.

They’ve been filling their Redmond area warehouse, so some refills can be within a 20-mile radius, instead of from the Portland or Eugene areas where they usually receive shipments. To combat eclipse traffic, they’re rescheduling produce deliveries from early morning to late nights, “at around 1 am,” to try to avoid traffic, says Store Manager Casey Capell. They’re also scrapping smaller vendor deliveries all together.

“We’re planning for the worst and hoping for the best,” Capell says.

With his finger on the pulse of happenings in the region, Capell is aware most locals are being told to stock up ahead of time. In the next two weeks they’ll be “on their feet, observing the situation and making decisions as they see needs arise.”

Capell says his team is also focused on the safety of his staff, assessing whether employees who travel from Redmond or other areas may need to have that time off per ODOT’s estimation that highways will be significantly backed up.

High volume also yields to increased security concerns. “Looting?” we ask.

“No, not quite,” he says, “More like opportunities packing up their grocery cart with goods and walking out the door. We’re all hands on deck during this time, so we’ll have staff members closely monitoring the doors and the situation.”

The most important products they're stocking up on? Capell says, “Water, ice and of course, beer.”

Similarly, the Bend Costco has been prepping for three months, said Dave Harruff, Costco vice president for the Northwest region. "We've had several meetings with the warehouse managers

in Oregon, including Bend and the buyers about making sure we have the right items and the right quantities to take care of business during the Eclipse."

Harruff noted that the Bend location has experienced a "strong increase" in sales, "starting last week," but noted that it's due in part because Costco has been supplying food and drinks to area firefighters.

Even with visibly lengthy lines earlier this week, Harruff is confident that they are "ready for extra business."

Ashley Volz, emergency services coordinator for the Deschutes County Sheriff ’s Office said, “Residents should stock up on all essentials — groceries, gas, toilet paper, pet food — by no later than Aug. 16.”

The Central Oregon Emergency website (Coemergencyinfo.blogspot. com) also gives extra guidelines which locals should familiarize themselves with.

Running on Empty

situation. But although you may not be able to drive anywhere — if there’s an emergency — you’ll receive plenty of help.

Spare Hands: Calling in Backup “The population of the region is expected to double, which means we expect to see at least double the number of patients at our facilities,” says Lisa Goodman, public information officer for St. Charles Health System.

The healthcare provider is combatting the pressure by restricting time-off requests and fully staffing their hospitals. “We’ve established an Emergency Coordination Center, which is making sure our hospitals and clinics have the supplies and staffing they need to meet the health care demands of our region during that time.” One of the ways they’re meeting demand is by hiring an extra 40 traveling nurses from outside the region.

Bend’s population was five times lower — at approximately 17,000, according to historical data — when the last total solar eclipse passed through in 1979. With change comes improvements in infrastructure, but still, a double squeeze on infrastructure leaves some worried whether the region can handle serious calamity.

St. Charles’ Goodman says their newest addition — a newly renovated hospital and expanded emergency room in Madras—is just that response to increased infrastructure. The center can treat critical injuries, without flying people to outlying communities— which may also be facing increased strain. “Additionally, we’ve received waivers from the state that will provide us some flexibility in how we provide our services,” says Goodman. Meanwhile, the Deschutes County Coroner’s office is also networking with local funeral homes in case of catastrophe.

All in all, when viewing this celestial spectacle, it will be locals who plan accordingly and stock up ahead of time who will help local businesses and organizations weather the impending storm.

Capell jokes, “In the end, we’ll hold on for dear life and hope for the best.

If we run out of one six pack of beer, it won’t be the end of the world.” SW

“Sick of tourists?” asks Scott Jameson. “You ain’t seen nothing yet.” Jameson works for one of four local gas stations who the Source Weekly spoke with for this story—where all say the same thing: there’s only so much gas a station can hold, and they can’t really prep for much else.

Jameson, a gas attendant for nearly four years, says there’s buzz from managers about possibly running out of gas close to the Aug. 21 event. He laughs, “They tell us to brace ourselves, but we don’t have much guidance.” Jameson says he’s noticed an influx of tourists already, but can’t really say if it’s because of the eclipse or normal summer traffic. He says he’s seen license plates from the usuals — California, Washington, British Columbia — and some unusuals, “Belgium was a weird one… I didn’t think they could get in with those Euro-plates.”

Neeri, who works at the westside Shell gas station, plans to escape calamity by biking into work. He says his bosses haven’t given any specifics on extra fills, but that tankers come in roughly “every day or every other day already.” His prediction? “One of three things: either we’ll be fine, get totally swamped or be bone dry.”

Jay P., a manager at Westside Food Mart, hasn’t made any extra contingency plans. “No, not that I’m aware of, we’re just treating it as normal.”

Perhaps not too reassuring for anyone who chooses to look at the eclipse in a dooms- This truck, pulling a trailer full of bottled water, was spotted leaving the Bend day prepper sort of Costco Tuesday.

O

n a normal day, about 200,000 folks call Deschutes, Crook and Jefferson counties home. And in about one week, the Deschutes County Sheriff ’s office estimates an extra 200,000 people will begin flowing into the area to experience the Great American Eclipse taking place Aug. 21.

Regionally, the Oregon Department of Transportation estimates a whopping 1 million people will flock to the entire state. Don Hamilton, ODOT spokesperson, says: “The eclipse will cause the biggest traffic event in Oregon history.”

So how are local organizations doing in terms of gas, food and such?

Spoiler alert: They don’t have many recent examples to go from, since the last American eclipse was in 1979.

Sketchy boat rides, a blood infection and a burglary. What’s not to love about chasing an eclipse?

“Reef! Whoa! Stop!”

The boat came to an abrupt halt as the captain reversed the engines and backed off the reef, just a few meters away.

“That was a close call,” said David Blackmore, my 61-year-old British travel companion and part-time Central Oregon resident. “It could have been disastrous. Boats capsize on a regular basis in Indonesia, and lots of people die. This boat journey is my absolute worst nightmare.”

We were packed onto a small fishing boat, making our way to Indonesia’s Togian Islands, 50 miles from Central Sulawesi Island. We had passed up the option to take an overnight passenger ferry, because a member of our international eclipse-chasing crew had arranged for three speed boats to take 45 of us to Malenge—one of the smaller, inhabited islands in the Togian chain. Alas, the three speed boats turned out to be two slow fishing boats, stretching an anticipated three-hour crossing to more than seven. David and I had climbed aboard the smaller vessel with a dozen fellow travelers, along with a crew of four Indonesian sailors. Another 30+ umbraphiles (the name given to eclipse chasers) crowded onto the larger boat. Neither vessel had a radio, GPS, life jackets or a crew member who had been to Malenge. But we were all determined to watch the total solar eclipse on March 9, 2015, from an island almost directly on the line of

totality.

By the time we “found” the reef, long after sunset, we hadn’t seen the other boat for at least two hours.

Crew members were searching the water with flashlights for the narrow passage, but it was proving elusive. The captain motored back and forth slowly for more than an hour before finding the opening, slipping through and making our way to Sera Beach Resort.

The tide was too low for the boat’s deep keel, so we hopped into the surf and waded ashore, backpacks hoisted overhead. A dozen more eclipse chasers welcomed us from the beach.

An hour later, the bigger boat arrived, and the rest of our motley crew waded ashore. They seemed surprisingly unperturbed that their captain had taken them to a different island, where his brother ran a resort, insisting they’d have to stay there or find their own way to Malenge. A mini-mutiny ensued and the captain relented.

Too tired to function after five days of travel by air, land and sea, I collapsed onto a mattress under a mosquito net in a clapboard shack with squat toilets.

I awoke the next morning to sunshine and tropical bird calls. Shimmering blue water stretched across the horizon, and palm trees swayed in the breeze above a white, sandy beach. David and I waded out to a hand-made outrigger with an outboard motor and caught a half-hour ride around the island to Lestari

Resort, where we had reservations for the week.

I settled into a sparse wooden cabin with a mosquito-netted bed. The indoor bathroom sported a shower head that spit out frigid water in the morning and scorching, sun-heated water in the afternoon. A 5-gallon bucket sat next to a Western-style commode, beneath a sign reminding guests to flush the toilet with seawater collected in the bucket.

As the afternoon call for prayer rang out over the village’s loudspeaker, I heard footsteps on the deck.

“Want to go for a snorkel?” David asked.

“Great idea! Just let me grab my gear.”

As I reached for my mask, something moved. I jerked my hand back and a skinny green snake lifted its head, poised to strike. It seemed just as startled as I was.

David and I whiled away the day in the water, trying to stay cool in the sweltering tropical heat, and speculating about the safety situation for the next day’s boat journey to an even more remote destination. Veteran eclipse chasers Simon Macara (British) and Greg “Brownie” Brown (Australian) had “discovered” an uninhabited island on the far eastern edge of the Togian Islands two years earlier. After several hours of searching, they located the soccer-field-sized “Pleasure Island,” where we could enjoy approximately two minutes and 30 seconds of eclipse totality.

I awoke the next morning excited and itching to go. Unfortunately, the middle finger of my left hand

between sobs.

“She was in the market, alone, shopping. She probably had a heart attack,” explained Dr. Shirley.

“You have a very difficult job,” I said.

She straightened up in her chair and looked me directly in the eye. “Yes, I do. But I love my work.”

“How much is my bill?” I asked. “How do I pay you?”

“There is no fee,” she said. “This is a free service for anyone.”

The drugs Dr. Shirley prescribed did the trick, and David and I continued traveling around Sulawesi Island for another two weeks while the remaining flesh on my left hand sloughed off.

We spent the final day of our trip in a police station, after my cash and iPhone were stolen from my backpack during an overnight bus ride.

Was two minutes and 30 seconds of totality worth several days of travel, two near-collisions with a coral reef, a life-threatening blood infection, and a burglary?

Definitely.

In fact, I’d do it all over again.

After all, sometimes a good story is better than a good time. SW

communities in the Australian outback. “You’ve got a nasty blood infection,” he announced, matter-of-factly. “If you walked into my clinic like this, we’d start you on IV antibiotics immediately. You don’t happen to have any drugs on you, do you?”

He was pleased to learn that I had 12 Cipro tablets and suggested I start taking four a day. “It will likely get worse over the next 24 hours, but then it should stop progressing, If it doesn’t, we’ll figure out what to do next. But in the meantime, if you come across any other antibiotics, take them. There’s no hospital on the island, and the next ferry to the mainland doesn’t leave for another four days, so we need to get on top of this, fast.”

By the next morning, the entire back of my hand was covered in blisters and the angry purple line had slithered down to my elbow. Peter didn’t seem overly alarmed, but David was worried sick, convinced I would die of sepsis.

For the next few days, I basically laid in my hammock, reading a ridiculously thick book and napping. When a new crew of guests arrived, one of the women offered me a dozen Amoxicillin pills.

One afternoon, David and I stumbled across a medical clinic. They had a vial of Tetracycline on hand, so I asked the nurse on duty to give me an injection. Fifteen minutes later, I felt light-headed while walking back to Lestari. We found a shady spot, and I laid on my back in the road while David fretted.

“We’ve got to get you to a hospital!” he said.

“I’ll be fine in a few minutes,” I insisted. “I’m just a fainter. I promise.”

By the time we boarded the eight-hour ferry to Sulawesi Island, the skin on the back of my hand was peeling off in sheets, and red splotches had started appearing on my left thigh. David insisted we visit the hospital in Ampana, our first touchpoint on the Sulawesi mainland.

Several motorcycle taxi drivers offered to take us to the hospital. David refused, having sworn off motorcycles decades before as too dangerous. The only other option was a donkey cart, so we wedged ourselves into a tiny, two-wheeled carriage and clip-clopped our way to the hospital.

A dashing young man behind the desk said, “Halo?”

I pointed to my mangled hand and asked, “Antibiotika?”

He took one look and furrowed his brow. He returned with Dr. Shirley, a soft-spoken medical professional in her mid-30s who spoke English. She took my hand in hers, turned it over and over again. She traced the visible vein—beginning to turn brown—to my elbow, and looked at the splotches on my thigh, which had increased in size and number and turned a putrid shade of purple.

“Have you seen this before?” asked David. “Do you know how to treat it?”

“Yes,” she replied, with a smile. “I have seen this before, mostly in children, and we can fix it. I will write a prescription for an anti-inflammatory and 10 days of antibiotics.”

Just as she put pen to prescription pad, a pick-up truck squealed into the parking lot, honking the horn. Dr. Shirley and the rest of the hospital staff rushed out to find a middle-aged woman stretched out in the bed of the truck. The medical team transferred her to a gurney, checked for a pulse, then placed an oxygen bag mask over her face. Dr. Shirley started CPR, stopping after a few minutes to place her stethoscope over the woman’s heart. She shook her head and commenced compressions again, repeating the cycle a few more times before allowing the dashing guy from the front desk to take over.

The call to prayer rang out from a loudspeaker, and I felt the tears welling up as Dr. Shirley and her team threw in the towel, after a long battle.

“What happened?” I managed to choke out,

…and it was pretty anticlimactic.

By Judy Stiegler It was February of 1979 and my husband and I had moved to Bend just a few months before.

I was studying for the bar exam in Portland, leaving Bend on Monday mornings and returning home on Fridays. Monday, Feb. 26, 1979, was a little different than most of my trips over the mountain to Portland, as there was a complete solar eclipse occurring that morning. There had been some publicity leading up to the event, and it was my intent to try and catch it on my way over. My husband had made me a “viewing box” out of cardboard; none of those NASA-approved devices for me!

The path of totality led across the northern part of Oregon, with totality to occur sometime around 8 am, and I planned my morning trek accordingly. I pulled off the side of the highway between Madras and Warm Springs right around 8 am. As I pulled off, I noticed half a dozen or so cars doing the same. We all got out of our cars, pulled out our viewing boxes and waited.

The sky was clear, and over the next 10 minutes or so we watched as the sun disappeared and darkness set in. Wows, oohs and aahs were heard from the 15 to 20 of us. Totality lasted a minute or two and then the sun slowly reappeared.

All total, the experience lasted 15 to 20 minutes.

Then we all got in our cars and drove away.

was also itching. In addition, it was pink and puffy, and it felt tight when I made a fist.

“You probably shouldn’t do that,” David warned, “If it’s some kind of infection, flexing your hand like that might cause it to spread.”

I assumed it was an insect bite, though I couldn’t find any evidence of one.

We packed our bags for a night of beach camping and took an outrigger back to Sera Beach Resort.

Macara had arranged for three boats to take us to Pleasure Island, but two never showed up, and the third arrived without diesel fuel before motoring away. Fortunately, a nearby fisherman stepped up, offering to take us all in his 50-foot trawler. Around 3 pm, five dozen folks from 15 countries climbed aboard with backpacks, bottled water and styrofoam coolers of ice and Bintang beer.

Dangerously overloaded, the boat took more than five hours to reach the island, once again after dark.

We repeated the near crash into the reef and the long search for a safe passage with borrowed flashlights.

Once we arrived, a hand-made motorized outrigger served as a dinghy, ferrying five people at a time to shore. David and I slept beneath a mosquito net he strung from a tree, woken repeatedly by a crab who ripped a hole in the net, scrambled across our feet, and tore open a bag of dried peas.

“Oh my god. I can’t believe how perfect the weather is,” I said upon waking.

“Oh my god! What happened to your hand?” said David.

My entire left hand was bright red and shiny, with purple tentacles spreading across the back of my hand and fat blisters spreading across my knuckles. I wondered if it might be a spider bite, and showed it to Brownie, an expert in snakes and other creepy creatures. “I don’t see anything that looks like a spider bite,” he said.

Someone strolling by suggested it looked like a jellyfish sting, but I felt confident that I would have noticed being stung by a jellyfish. He offered me a Benadryl and a bit of advice: “Pee on your hand.” I took him up on both. Neither seemed to offer much relief.

The moon and sun made first contact around 7:30 am. We gathered on the beach, staring at the slowly diminishing sun through cardboard eclipse glasses, custom-made viewing spectacles, and #14 welding glass. For nearly an hour, the moon devoured its own light source, bit by bit, until the sun disappeared altogether with a final, brilliant flash of light.

David and I placed our welding glasses on the sand, rose to our feet, and stared directly at the sun, awestruck and silent, for 150 seconds. I’m pretty sure that’s what everyone else was doing as well, but to be honest, I wasn’t paying attention to them. I couldn’t tear myself away from the black hole in the sky, brimming with a glowing white circle of light.

Another bright flash signaled the end of totality, and we began to bask in the afterglow. We highfived. We hugged. We frolicked in the gentle surf. We packed up our belongings.

I found a beer cooler and dunked my throbbing hand into the melted ice water.

The sun rose higher in the sky, and people started ferrying their belongings back to the fishing boat via the outrigger. As noon approached and the heat became unbearable, the final half-dozen of us swam across the reef to reach the fishing boat.

Thanks to the cooperation of the ocean currents, the return trip to Malenge took only four hours. By the time we arrived back at Lestari resort, my left hand was swollen to twice its normal size, and a purplish-brown line had started snaking its way down my forearm.

One of the newly-arrived guests was a nurse named Peter who had experience working in Aboriginal

Experimentation SOUND Electronic Australian DJ Zeke Beats brings his experimental sounds to The Capitol and Oregon Eclipse Festival

By Anne Pick

13 VOLUME 21 ISSUE 32 / August 10, 2017 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

“I think there’s no exact formula to a good beat,” Australian DJ and electronic music producer Zeke Beats says. “If things happen naturally, if they happen to sound really good, that’s awesome. My process is more about creating sounds that are big and fat and weird.”

W

hen it comes to the electronic and bass music scene, Zeke Beats continues to rise in the ranks, creating beats using digital and hardware synthesizers— his preferred method of artistry. He creates sounds, chops them up and uses them in a beat. Always experimenting, Zeke believes the best things come from good accidents.

The Australian-born beat master got into electronic music at a young age. Influenced by his three older brothers, Zeke started listening to trance, bass beats and artists such as The Prodigy at age 10. At 13, his school purchased turntables and he started experimenting, thus beginning his affinity for DJing and music production.

“I’ve been producing music for about 5-6 years now,” he says. “I felt like I had reached the top of my game on my DJing side of things. I just felt like to take it to the next step I should start producing music. I sort of just did it, with a lot of experimentation.

I also had a lot of guidance and advice from a guy named Eprom. He helped me up my skill level very quickly. I’m very thankful for that,” the artist now reflects.

In addition to performing at The Capitol on Saturday, Zeke’s North American tour finds him traveling to the Ochoco National Forest for the Oregon Eclipse Festival at Big Summit Prairie. The festival, gathering together a variety of musical artists, definitely has an electronic bent, which means Zeke will get the chance to meet some of his supporters.

“The thing I’m looking forward to the most is meeting fans, Zeke says. "It’s just a really good feeling to do that,” “To finally

see people who follow me online and put an actual physical being to an online user name.”

Whether you plan to catch him in the club setting of The Capitol or at a festival setting such as the Oregon Eclipse, the show will be similar. While other artists may alter their sets for a festival or club show, Zeke says he treats the two venues the same.

“It’s going to be a mixture of turntableism-type routines, which means it involves scratching and certain tricks and then also drumming on the machine, which I use. It allows me to drum out drum patterns live and so on,” Zeke says. “My setup for both festivals and club sets are the same, and generally I like to play a lot of original music as well as music I enjoy listening to that my homies make.”

Coming from the Land Down Under, Zeke likes coming to the United States.

Because of the large population here, he can play more experimental beats while also opting to go more commercial at times.

“It’s such an amazing feeling to be at the stage now where I’m going international, across the seas and having people all the way across the other side of the world listening to my music and coming out to the shows,” Zeke says. “It’s just an unreal feeling of gratitude. I’m really humbled by that.” SW Zeke Beats

Jamming in North Lake County

Christmas Valley Music Festival supports children’s charities in a beautiful, minimalist setting

WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / August 10, 2017 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

A taste of last year’s Christmas Valley Music Festival, which supports North Lake County children.

B

en Rougeou, a talented bass player from New Orleans who played with a band called Ma Fondue, loved the Christmas Valley Music Festival. Last year, suffering from cancer, he made the trip out.

He got out of bed, sat on his chair, played the concert, and at the end of the night, stood up and sang lead vocals in the “We are the World”-style group jam. Unfortunately, since last year’s festival, the world lost Rougeou.

In celebration of Rougeou’s life, the fifth annual Christmas Valley Music Festival features a pick-up group, including members of Ma Fondue, paying tribute to Rougeou. For the last several years, funds raised at the festival have gone to not only feed underprivileged children in North Lake County, but also to support a scholarship (named after Rougeou) for students pursuing a music major or minor in college. Festival organizer Earl Diment plans to award the recipient with the $2,000 check just before the tribute band plays.

Charity, community outreach and getting musicians together in the remote area have always been at the forefront of the Christmas Valley Music Festival. Diment and his partner in event planning, Brad Rehn, came across a program called High Desert Brain Food, which has been a major recipient of funds raised by the

festival. With Christmas Valley schools only open four days a week, some students may not eat from the time school doors close on Thursday until they open on Monday, they say.

“Our goal is to keep a budget, pay our bills, feed the kids—which we fed them for five months last year (up from two and a half months the year before) and maintain a scholarship,” Diment says. “If all the funding went away, our goal is that we could still pull off one more festival. We just have a blast.”

This year’s festival includes a full lineup of varying styles. Alexa Wiley & the Wilderness play acoustic, folk rock in a quirky style. DC Malone plays old wave rock and roll. Diment’s band, Loose Change, gets a little more psychedelic. The Ventilators have a blues/ rock slant and Michael Manning is a little more mellow. The Crazed Weasels blend bluegrass and comedy. It’s a lineup that appeals to a broad range of people.

“Every year the community really does support it. Initially, it was a way to get musicians out here. We live out here in this devastatingly wonderful spot. Other than giving music to the community and feeding kids, it’s fun to see the festival through their [attendees’] eyes; it’s kind of a great motivator.” SW

Looking for merch to commemorate the monumental eclipse event? From coins to jewelry to T-shirts, here’s a peek at what you can find in Central Oregon

By Anne Pick

Bling and Things Jen Anderson, owner and designer of Allora Jewelry based in Bend, was first approached about creating eclipse-themed jewelry by one of her accounts in Newport. The business wanted custom eclipse jewelry. Soon Anderson heard from the Made in Oregon stores for their own custom pieces.

“I’ve been working around the clock to keep up with it,” Anderson says. “It’s been fun to create something new and see the response and excitement about it. It started with lots of online orders and it’s helping put my business on the map.”

In addition to selling eclipse jewelry online, you can also find Anderson’s pieces locally at Newport Market, Pomegranate, Desperado, Local Joe, C.C. McKenzie and the St. Charles Gift Shop.

Anderson also plans to sell the jewelry at the Eclipse Festival in Madras.

Hypercolor Ain’t Got Nothin’ on These Mountain High Coins, located on Third Street in Bend, created a commemorative coin for the occasion.

Designed by owner Colleen McGrew’s husband Dave, the pair wanted to create a special collectible that could be saved and passed on. Mountain High Coins created two coins, both showing the path of totality on one side and a custom glow-in-the-dark design on the other. McGrew only produced coins for Oregon, but has fielded requests from other states for a similar product.

Not only does Mountain High Coin carry the commemorative coin, they’ve also created two T-shirts that change color in the sun. Kids of the ‘90s will appreciate the color changing effect that occurs when the shirts are touched by the sun. How many other eclipse T-shirts can do that?

I Blacked Out To cover all of the outlets selling eclipse T-shirts would be near impossible. It seems everyone has their own design, their own style. But as a frequent visitor to Strictly Organic on Bond Street, their eclipse T-shirts caught my eye. The spot carries black T-shirts and tank tops with an eclipse image that says, “I Blacked Out 2017.” The business gets their shop T-shirts from Be Oregon (formerly 541 Threads), which offered them eclipse T-shirts to sell as well. Be Oregon donates meals to local Oregon food banks for every item they sell, making these eclipse T-shirts extra special.

Keepin’ It Fashion Forward In addition to stores peddling eclipse merchandise, you’ll also find individuals throughout the area looking to capitalize on the event. Christie Taylor, a local graphic designer, saw a need for a higher standard of eclipse fashion. Unsure of the risk to print and license T-shirts, she took a different route for her designs. Taylor uploaded her designs to a website called Society6, a site allowing artists from all over the globe to upload their work, which the company then prints and sends to customers.

“As a designer and someone who cares about creative, something that you’re wearing around you want it to be something that matches your style,” Taylor says. “What was out there, was just not up to par from a design standard. I felt like I could create an option for people who were looking for something with the bar a little higher.”

Uploading her designs to Society6 allows Taylor to showcase her art-focused designs without having to bite the bullet, so to speak, and take the risk of printing T-shirts that may or may not sell.

to Facebook. After joining the Central Oregon Buy, Sell and Trade group on the social network, a simple search for "eclipse" warranted dozens of results.

From simple T-shirts to custom wooden memorabilia to custom jewelry, you can find a wide breadth of eclipse-related swag — and last minute RV camping spots.

Whether looking to commemorate the moments of totality (and the impending state of unimaginable chaos) or if you’re seeking the perfect themed-jewelry to wear during the big dance party out in the Ochocos, you’ll have no problem finding eclipse merchandise both online and throughout Central Oregon.

Michael LaLonde Deschutes Brewery CEO

By Richard Sitts

ARTWATCH

Oregon rsident Ellen Waterston has just released her fourth book of poetry.

community.

He offers the example of the traveling street pub that toured seven cities across the U.S. in 2016 and raised more than $400,000 for local charities.

LaLonde is also leading Deschutes in reducing its environmental footprint. Through a program with the Deschutes River Conservancy, the brewery leases irrigation water from area farmers so that excess water typically spent on fields can remain in the river. This enables a billion gallons of water to remain in the river each year, which is 14 times the amount of water the brewery uses, LaLonde explains.

“One of our main goals is to reduce our water usage.”

LaLonde says the company promotes a strong culture among its employees so that they feel more engaged and that they can have an impact on the company. “I think that if they feel they can have some impact, then they will enjoy working here a lot more.” Over the years, Deschutes consistently ranks high on lists of best U.S. companies to work for.

As we walk through the cavernous brewhouse on Simpson Avenue, LaLonde greets employees along the way.

He says he is inspired to see Deschutes Brewery make “damn tasty beer” (the unofficial motto for which he is credited), “something that’s exciting, very good and flavorful, that doesn’t build up on the palate, but is balanced and not overwhelming.” He says two of his current favorites are two recent additions to the Deschutes lineup: Pacific Wonderland

It's the biggest single project we've ever done as a company, so we're putting a lot of planning and thought into it, making sure we do it right.

Lager and American Wheat Ale. LaLonde is also heavily involved with Deschutes’ east coast expansion in Roanoke, Va., where there will be an Aug. 28 grand opening for its new tasting room.

He tells about walking down the street there one day when a local shop owner came out to ask if he was with Deschutes.

When he said yes, the woman just walked up and gave him a gargantuan hug. He says the Roanoke community is thrilled with Deschutes’ imminent arrival.

The brewery there won’t be up and running for another few years, but LaLonde has spent considerable time there laying the groundwork. “It’s the biggest single project we’ve ever done as a company, so we’re putting a lot of planning and thought into it, making sure we do it right.” And then, he adds, “There’s no doubt my wife wishes that I were home more.” Two of their kids are in college and another is a sophomore at Summit High School. In what spare time he can find, LaLonde says he loves fly-fishing and mountain biking. He also coaches lacrosse and says, “I have a dog that likes to be walked.”

Back at the production facility on Simpson Avenue, LaLonde says there

are a lot of projects going on, including six new large tanks outside that are being prepped to go online. There’s also a brand new pilot brewing system where brewers will experiment with different hops, malts and styles of beer, “all of them to be damn tasty,” he adds. A new canning operation will fire up in the spring, although it’s not yet determined which beers will roll off the line.

And for the oldest brewery in town, it seems like there’s always something new at Deschutes—like the two Tesla-dedicated parking spaces and two other electric car spaces outside the tasting room.

Also outside the tasting room is a bicycle station with a permanent tire pump and tethered tools.

When LaLonde started at Deschutes, he says there were only two other breweries in town: Bend Brewing Company and Cascade Lakes Brewing Company. Back then, he adds, everyone knew each other. Although the Bend brewing scene has exploded over the years, he says there’s still plenty of cooperation and camaraderie. “It’s a great community but it’s competitive at the same time. The innovation is amazing, creating new kinds of beer all the time. It’s a very creative group.” SW

New Poetry Book from Ellen Waterston The creative work of Ellen Waterston never stops for long—if ever, whether she’s converting her verse into a libretto or overseeing operations in her new role as executive director at Playa, an arts and science retreat in Summer Lake, Ore. The longtime Oregon resident has just released her fourth book of poetry, “Hotel Domilocos: Poems” with Moonglade Press.

The image on the cover is the actual Hotel Domilocos in Costa Rica.

While the hotel doesn’t exist anymore, Waterston knew that when she saw it, it needed to be a title for her next book. “We all qualify for living in

the hotel for locos,” Waterston joked during a recent phone conversation.

“Life is just crazy and we are all crazy in it.”

Waterston describes these most recent poems as a buffet of perspective in which the common thread is looking at place and the collision of culture within it. The poems range from reflections on ranch living to visiting south of the border to explorations on the east coast growing up. While some poems take a serious tome of time and passing, Waterston refuses to shy away from the humor of life—even including a poem reflecting upon airplane pretzels.

“For quite a long time I thought I could move back (to the east coast).

In some ways, I feel like I am a woman without a country, which is why I think I examine them so closely,” Waterston says. “I know where I am when I am really far out. I know where I am when I am in big space.”

As the landscapes begin to shrink in an ever-developing Oregon, Waterston continues forward examining them with her heart, reminding us that we need to enjoy the vistas while we have them. SW Ellen Waterston

ust before Michael LaLonde’s interview for the position of chief financial officer at Deschutes Brewery 12 and a half years ago, he pulled two all-nighters working on his graduate degree, while working a full-time job and raising three kids. About a quarter of the way into the interview, he recalls, someone asked him if he’d like a cup of coffee. At the time, LaLonde thought he had bombed. “I told my wife, there’s no way I’ll ever work for Deschutes Brewery,” he laughs. “Even when Gary (Fish) called me to offer me the job, I asked him if he was sure he was calling the right guy.”

It turns out, they did have the right guy. Since his hiring, LaLonde also has served as chief operating officer and president, and in June was named chief executive officer, a role long held by Deschutes’ founder and chairman Gary Fish.

What sold him to the Deschutes interview panel, LaLonde believes, was his previous 12 years’ experience as the chief financial officer for the Salt River Pima-Maricopa Indian Community in Scottsdale, Ariz., where he juggled working with tribal elders and state and federal officials while overseeing the tribes’ nine businesses. While there, he earned the nickname, “Diablo Blanco.”

LaLonde was born in South Bend, Ind., moving to Atlanta as an infant. He worked as a bartender, waiter, cook and dishwasher while earning a degree in finance from Georgia State University.

So what’s it like to sit in the top chair of one of the country’s premiere private breweries? “It’s a great job for a lot of different reasons,” LaLonde says. From the beginning, the Deschutes philosophy, he says, has always been to be involved in the community and to give back to the

Josh Behrens had no idea he dressed like Tom Cruise’s character in Cocktail; he’d never seen the movie.

making his own ice. Believe it or not, good ice is challenging. It can pick up flavors or smells depending on where it is stored. The wrong shape can melt too quickly, diluting a drink. Behrens boiled water to remove impurities and over the course of a few weeks stockpiled artisan ice for the finale. He also researched what was in season and what products the Pacific Northwest is known for. In addition to his artisan ice, he brought fresh mandarin juice, fresh pear juice (90 percent of pears in the U.S. come from the Northwest) and his house-made Irish Cream to the competition.

The first challenge in the finale was to create a Smash (a cocktail with a spirit, herb, sweetener and muddled fresh fruit served over crushed ice).

Behrens hand-crushed ice at home, in addition to the perfect ice. The next round was to create a cocktail with mystery ingredients—cloves— and RAFT smoked tea vanilla syrup.

Josh used his pear puree with Rye and the mystery ingredients to mix up yet another winning cocktail. In the last challenge, Behrens had to satisfy the requests coming from a judge playing a picky customer, shouting that they weren’t sure what they wanted but

they wanted it to be citrusy and sweet.

Luckily the mandarins Josh brought satisfied the “sweet and citrus” request and earned him the Bite of Bend’s "Best Bartender in Bend" title.

If you want Behrens to make you a drink, you can find him behind the bar at Worthy Brewing. Wish him luck when you see him; he’ll be competing again soon—representing Bend—at the Bite of Oregon in Portland in early September. SW

The Shmee Shmoo

(named after Behren’s little brother)

1 ½ oz. Vodka ½ oz. Hazelnut Espresso Vodka 2 oz. Irish Cream ¼ oz. Creme de Cacao Rim glass with ground cocoa powder and hazelnuts. Combine all ingredients with ice and shake. Then double strain mixture into a glass and serve neat (no ice). Place mint leaf on top and sprinkle a little ground cocoa powder and hazelnuts over the mint.

Paleo Eats makes great-tasting Paleo energy bars in Bend, and they’ve hit it big this year. They landed on the exclusive top three list of Paleo bars on the market by Paleo Magazine and now the nutritious bars are headed overseas to Norway. All three Paleo Eats flavors—chai spice, coconut-cacoa and coffee bean—started selling at Norwegian Xfit Box and Crossfit Kristiansand locations this month. There’s also a juice bar, coffee shop and a few natural food stores, 10 in total, waiting to sell Paleo Eats in Norway.

Debbie Fred created Paleo Eats when she discovered all three of her children had food intolerances. There were no wholesome, yummy snacks on the market at the time, so she developed the bars, which are gluten-free, dairy-free, grain-free, legume-free, wheat-free, corn-free and made without any processed sugar.

Northwest-Inspired Delicatessen Coming to SE Bend this Fall Wild Oregon Foods, a Northwest-inspired delicatessen, is set to open in the Bend Factory Stores shopping center this fall. The delicatessen aims to bring fresh, locally sourced products to some of our favorite traditional delicatessen dishes. Wild Oregon Foods will offer a small market for grab-and-go snacks, beer and wine, as well as counter service for hot specials, sandwiches and salads.

Wild Oregon Foods was conceived

by James Fink, a classically trained chef from the Bay Area with over 20 years of experience in the industry. He was most recently sous chef at Deschutes Brewery, but has also worked as chef at Jackson’s Corner and as sous chef at Brasada Ranch.

ecognize this guy? He’s Josh Behrens,named the best bartender in Bend, crowned at the Bartender’s Brawl finale at the Bite of Bend. To earn his title, he had to woo the judges with six different cocktails at two separate events.

Behrens has worked around the bar since he was 19. He started as a bar back doing jobs such as stocking the bar with ice, glassware or prepping garnishes. He did this until he turned 21 when he could start legally working as a bartender. His training was in Northern California, where he grew up, from an old school bartender. He refers to the training as “old school” because the cocktails weren’t craft, driven by obscure ingredients or Pre-Prohibition style classics.

Eventually Behrens moved on and worked at a bar where they'd hired consultant Russell Davis—expert mixologist on the Spike show, “Bar Rescue” (it’s like Gordon Ramsey’s “Kitchen Nightmares” for bars and clubs). Davis emphasized the importance of practicing bartending at home and recommended reading the book “The Fine Art of Making Drinks,” by David Embury. Behrens recommends the book for anyone interested in making better cocktails.

Published in 1948, the author shares cocktail basics and standard recipes with encouragement for experimentation. The current trend in craft cocktails has strong roots in Pre-prohibition cocktails, which is why this book is relevant today. (It’s currently out of print though, so you’ll have to search the secondhand market if you want a copy.)

Behrens’ first introduction to competition came on the job, where the house bartenders competed against each other to see whose drink would end up on the menu. This is where Behrens picked up his first win. His entry round of the Bartender’s Brawl was at J-Dub Restaurant & Bar. He was allowed to bring a few ingredients of his own, so he brought his homemade Irish Cream, using it in the competition to make a dessert cocktail (recipe below) with Irish Cream, crème de cacao, vodka and mint, with a rim of ground cocoa and hazelnuts.

This cocktail earned him second place.

(The bartender representing J-Dub was the winner.) Ultimately, the judges decided to push Behrens forward to the finale because it was such a close match.

Behrens says cocktails are only as good as the ingredients—so he started

The beer fun never ends in the Old Mill this weekend.

F

or beer fans, August will be a difficult month to go on a diet. That’s because the local area will play host to two separate enormous beer festivals—the Bend Brewfest, starting Thursday and going ‘til Saturday late night, and the Redmond Brewfest next week, just in time for eclipse traffic.

The year 2017 marks the 15th Bend Brewfest, and through the years it’s grown to one of the largest beer-oriented events in the state. Spread out across the fields around the Les Schwab Amphitheater, thousands of people show up for it, basking in the sun as they try out the massive cornucopia of adult beverages on offer.

A total of 86 breweries, cideries and wineries will be attending, along with a swath of food carts and other sellers.

It’s a hallmark event—be sure to arrive thirsty (and don’t try to drive anything afterward).

A few things to watch out for in particular among the booths: • One highlight of any Brewfest is getting to check out selections from breweries that don’t normally distribute to Bend. Top among them is ColdFire, the small Eugene-based outfit that’s been hitting it out of the park with their IPAs and farmhouse-style beers. They’re keeping it a bit more relaxed for the undoubtedly-hot fest weekend, however, bringing along their flagship NW Ale and a German-style pilsner

with an Oregon-style hoppy flair.

• This year’s event also marks the unofficial debut of several breweries starting to ship kegs to Central Oregon. This includes places such as McMinnville’s Evasion Brewing (gluten-free specialists), Oregon City’s Coin Toss Brewing and Sedition Brewing, a small place in The Dalles offering a killer rye-infused IPA. • Cascade Brewing, the Portland stalwart that recently redid all their logo and label designs, is bringing their sour A-game to the festival.

Three wild-fermentation beers will be lurking around the X-Tap tent, including Shrieking Violet (a blend of sours aged with blueberries in wine/bourbon barrels) and Suimo Amaimo, a pluot-aged sour brewed in conjunction with Y. Market Brewing in Japan.

• Even for locals, though, the Brewfest is a good chance to catch up with close-to-home breweries that you might not visit very often.

Take RiverBend Brewing, which has quietly been doing a lot to boost its quality lately. Look out for Rum Away With me while prowling around the Amphitheater; it’s a stout brewed with oats for an extra-smooth finish, then aged for three months in Clermont Springs rum barrels.

Winter’s coming sooner or later, after all. SW

KIDNAP: Halle Berry's action thriller “Kidnap” has been pulled from release so many times over the last two years that it's almost a miracle it made it into theaters at all. Berry plays a mom chasing her young son's kidnappers all across a city while looking good doing it. This looks incredibly forgettable.

WAR FOR THE PLANET OF THE APES:

The “final” installment to the “Planet of the Apes” prequel trilogy not only sends the series out on a high note, but also manages to be one of the best films of the year.

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

SCREEN Summer In the City

"Detroit" exposes another dark corner of American history

By Jared Rasic

SC

Columbia Pictures

the primary motivation for everyone’s presence is to stay out of the way.

When one of the residents fires a starter pistol out the window toward some very skittish DPD, private security and National Guardsmen, the already-scared law enforcement assume there’s a sniper at work and rush the Algiers Motel. By the end of the night, three young men have been murdered by cowardly, black-souled police and the men who stood by and did nothing.

“Detroit” is a Black Lives Matter movie for the All Lives Matter crowd.

There’s no way to watch the movie without fearing the militarization of the police while also seeing the parallels with our modern justice system.

It’s been 50 years since the events at the Algiers, but the black community doesn’t have it much better when it comes to seeking justice or dealing with law enforcement. If you disagree, I suggest asking the loved ones of Tamir Rice, Eric Garner, Sandra Bland, Freddie Gray, Philando Castile, Trayvon Martin ,etc.

Sitting through the film’s overlong 142-minute running time, it’s hard not

To protect and serve...who, exactly?

to imagine what a leaner and more stripped down version of the story would look like. Director Kathryn Bigelow (“Zero Dark Thirty,” “Point Break”) once again uses her almost documentary-like style to create a film that feels both immediate and timeless. On the one hand, it’s an important story that everyone in the country should know, but it’s also hard not to complain about how repetitive and, eventually, numbing the film becomes.

The biggest issue with “Detroit” is that the running time feels punishing based on the brutal and extremely

horrific subject matter. Since there’s really no central character, the film plays like an unbiased and historically accurate view of the event, when it could have carried even more weight as a primal howl of rage at systemic racism and police brutality.

Bigelow is a masterful director, but “Detroit” could have used more poetry and less of a clinical and chilly eye. SW Detroit

There Are Other Worlds Than These The long awaited "Dark Tower" fails miserably

I

n the movie, “Contact,” Jodie Foster sees alien life for the first time and utters one of the best lines in movie history: “They should have sent a poet.”

That’s how I feel after watching Sony’s adaptation of Stephen King’s eight-book series, “The Dark Tower.” I have neither the vocabulary nor room to tear into this movie in the way it deserves.

The opening line of the first book in the series, “The Gunslinger,” is an all-timer: “The Man in Black fled across the desert, and the Gunslinger followed.” Boom, done, put this book inside my head. The movie, meanwhile, takes pieces of books one, three and six and shuffles them together into a hodgepodge of terrible dialogue, pointless exposition and zero sense of adventure. Adding insult to injury: there isn’t a single moment of Roland chasing the Man in Black across a desert.

Roland Deschain is a cross between Clint Eastwood and King Arthur. He’s the last Gunslinger; a legendary order of knights/cowboys who fought against the evil magician Walter Padick, AKA The Man in Black. The MiB is also Randall Flagg, the villain from King’s

“The Stand” and “Eyes of the Dragon.” In fact, “The Dark Tower” series ties most of King’s bibliography into one massive tapestry, as it also connects to “It,” “‘Salem’s Lot,” and just about everything else.This is a series of books that has a psychotic monorail, a giant cyborg bear and villains dressed like Doctor Doom that throw deadly sneetches at people. These books are weird, wonderful and deeply flawed, but I love them.

Yet everything that made “The Dark Tower” cycle interesting is missing here. The tone and style of the film needed to be something like Cormac McCarthy’s “The Road,” but instead it’s a spineless PG-13, a cross between a young adult adaptation and a shitty Las Vegas magic act. It’s “Criss Angel Presents: Harry Potter and the Peculiar Hunger Games.”

Roland is the anti-hero and main character. In “The Gunslinger” he meets a young boy named Jake Chambers from New York. The main thread is that Roland is desperate to reach the Dark Tower, which Walter is trying to destroy. The Tower is basically the center of the world and holds the

different realities together; if it falls all the worlds will end. For Roland, the entire arc of the series is about balancing his love for Jake and his Ka-tet (his squad) and his obsession with the Tower. We’re so deeply entrenched in Roland’s journey that we agonize with him as he chooses between his friends and the Tower. What does the film do? It makes Jake the main character and Roland a sidekick. Every ounce of complexity from the novels is gone.

I wanted this to be good. I wanted it to make lots of money so we could see Roland’s entire quest realized on the big screen. At this point, I

think I would settle for a SyFy channel series with the same cast (Idris Elba as Roland is perfect) and a different “creative” team. The books are so cinematic, yet somehow the movie is anti-cinema: a soulless and cynical cash grab that takes something beautiful and turns it to garbage. There’s no true Dark Tower at the end of this journey; just Sony with its hand out and fingers crossed. SW The Dark Tower

“D

etroit” is the best movie I’ll never watch again. Just like “The Passion of the Christ” or “Enter the Void,” the film is designed to make the audience feel something deeply, as opposed to being something one could remotely define as “entertainment.” While “Detroit” feels like something important that everyone across the country should watch, it’s also hard not to focus on the fact that if it wasn’t based on a true story, the film would play a lot more like “Hostel” than it wants to.

Taking place across a few days during the summer of 1967, “Detroit” tells the true story of some racist cops and seven young innocent African-Americans (and a couple of white girls) who cross paths at the Algiers Motel during the 12th Street riots.

The city is on fire and the predominantly black residents of the motel are all laughing, swimming and having a party. Whether it’s Anthony Mackie’s ex-Airborne hero Greene who’s in Detroit looking for work or Jacob Latimore’s Fred Temple, who stopped in with his best friend to avoid the riots,

OUTSIDE Fires, Crops and other Concerns

In small burgs such as Gateway, prep for the eclipse involves planning to protect farms, and livelihoods

by Judy Stiegler

37 VOLUME 21 ISSUE 32 / August 10, 2017 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

Rural communities in the path of eclipse totality are preparing for hordes of visitors. Inset, Marla Rae and cousin Bryce Vibbert.

G

ateway is a small farming community about 11 miles north of Madras, boasting a population of 50 residents, plus or minus a few. It’s where Marla Rae and her family have been farming for over six generations—so needless to say, Rae knows the community and the surrounding area well.

At the moment, much attention and hype has been given to the upcoming total solar eclipse throughout the region. Crowds numbering in the hundreds of thousands are expected in and around Central Oregon, with all the attendant logistical challenges. Locals in Central Oregon have been warned to stock up and stay home. Much of the focus has been on the cities of Central Oregon expected to be impacted—Bend, Redmond, Prineville and at the top of the list, Madras.

Meanwhile, small communities such as Gateway are also bracing for impact—and that impact could have wider implications than simply the annoyance of some extra visitors.

Being in the heart of river rafting country, people in Gateway and the surrounding area are no strangers to summer tourists. Under usual circumstances, Rae says it’s a welcoming community—but the upcoming event is hitting them right in the middle of harvest, and at the height of a very volatile wildfire season.

Rae says people there have been absolutely inundated with requests for camping sites, to the point where many in the community have adopted an “immediate family only” rule.

Thus, one of the biggest fears is trespassers running amok, and not respecting private property.

As Rae expressed jokingly, “Trespassers may find their cars loaded up with zucchini if they aren’t careful.”

Likewise, fire officials worry about car exhaust starting fires in the dry underbrush, should drivers stop randomly. Farmers and ranchers there and

elsewhere worry about that too.

Locals in Gateway have organized meetings to strategize how to deal with all the potential issues.

One of those meetings hosted the County’s Emergency Management Director, Marc Carman, who helped inform the community on resources and strategies. The Chief of the region’s Rangeland Fire Protection Association also met with the volunteers of that Association multiple times, strategizing for the event. The emphasis of those meetings has consistently been about the need for all volunteers to be alert and available during the time of the eclipse. As Rae points out, they are neighbors helping neighbors. It’s what they have always done and reflects the spirit of the community—taking care of each other.

So will the lead-up to the eclipse be much like the prep for the Y2K event—predicting the “end of the world,” without actually realizing that reality? Farmers, ranchers and other locals in small communities such as this sure hope so.

Still, with crops and livelihoods hanging in the balance, it’s become clear that especially in these smaller communities, there’s no room for complacency or to let one’s guard down. There can be hope for the best, but also preparation for the worst.

In Gateway, Rae’s ultimate hope is that any and all visitors will respect private property and be particularly alert to the potential dangers during this hot and dry season. That means not trampling crops or driving onto private property—and definitely not smoking or otherwise starting fires.

Under ordinary circumstances, Gateway, like many of the small communities in the region, would ordinarily put out the welcome mat, and encourage visitor interaction with the community. Right now, however, they’re just hoping to survive without any major catastrophe. SW

Natural World

Beware: Looking out for sticky wasp traps

Have a question about the natural world of Central Oregon?

Send your questions to jimnaturalist@gmail.com.

By Jim Anderson houses, barns and other outbuildings.

Recently, a wildlife rehabber in New Mexico rescued a roadrunner who had its tail and both feet stuck to a glue board a homeowner had placed outside for capturing unwanted mice.

The roadrunner, an efficient mouse-catcher, probably found mice and small birds trapped on the board and went after them, only to find itself captured in the same way. It would have been really a mess if a raptor

Try as we may, we humans try to solve a problem involving wild animals — and invariably end up putting our foot into it, causing more problems than when we started.

Even some fly strips put up in barns to capture flies and other night-time insects—such as bothersome mosquitoes that spread diseases—also catch birds. The photo here shows a barn swallow in an all-too-sticky fly trap. It was rescued by photographer Rebecca Dmytryk of Wildlife Emergency Services in Moss Landing, Calif., and taken to a wild bird rehabber, Native Songbirds Care & Conservation.

People caring for birds that have been unintentionally trapped by these devices say it’s almost always a lost cause trying to save them. The birds battle the mess there, losing additional feathers in the process, and become so exhausted using energy to escape that they’re about done in when discovered.

In addition to fly and wasp traps, some people have taken to building glue boards outside to capture the rodents causing them problems inside

came come to dine on the roadrunner and it too got stuck to the board.

It makes one wonder what would have happened if a golden eagle or other large raptor went after the roadrunner, got stuck to the board and flew off with it.

(When I band rough-legged hawks that come down from the Arctic to spend winter making a living on rodents in the Fort Rock haying community, I attach a weight to the board holding the hawk trap, in the event an eagle tries to get off with the mouse I use for bait.)

One outstanding element in this glue trap business is the firm, TrapStick, which has recalled its traps and asked retailers to remove it from shelves. Their engineers must not have anticipated capturing birds as well as insects, and probably had no idea how fatal it would be to small birds, such as

39

chickadees, swallows and the like.

The recall is good news, and gives TrapStick high marks for being a responsible firm that doesn’t want to go on killing birds. Hats off to them!

However, this problem could be solved by placing the TrapStick, or similar device, inside a 1/4-inch galvanized wire box/cage, leaving enough room so birds on the outside can’t reach the insects caught on the sticky surface.

Such a box would not work for a sticky board put out for rodents, however; that would have to be placed in a location where birds are not present.

Try as we may, we humans try to solve a problem involving wild animals—and invariably end up putting our foot into it, causing more problems than when we started. That said, if you have a wild animal (and insects are “animals”) doing something you’d rather not have them do around your domicile, take your idea (or device) to the East Cascades Audubon Society in Bend. (Birders night is the third Thursday of each month at 6:30 pm at the Environmental Center in Bend.)

The ECAS membership is made up of birders and other people who appreciate all facets of the world of nature, coming from just about every walk of life, and would be happy to evaluate your ideas for operational success— while also not causing problems for the wildlife around us in the process. SW

The Decline of Cookie Cutter Homes

W

and customization of homes such as restrictions on paint colors and other alterations the older neighborhoods do not have all these rules, lots are larger sized, and homes are mainly individually rather than mass constructed, and have more character.

In addition to millennial buyers, other groups are also attracted to this concept but access is limited due to costs.

This is very evident to anyone comparing prices on old west Bend homes to newer tract-type housing.

Many mass builders are attempting to lower this uniformity in response to consumer demand and seek affordable ways to vary streetscapes, architecture and housing elevation. While mass building has definite economic advantages and attractive development is possible, the mass builders look to where they can make the most money. Currently, affordable entry-level housing does not seem to be part of the picture, which is probably why we are still seeing larger homes and a shortage of affordable entry level and middle class housing.

hen helping people find a home, I often hear “I don’t want a cookie cutter home.” A cookie cutter home typically refers to a tract-type homes that look pretty much the same from the exterior. Many of these homes were built after World War II when there was high demand and a low supply of housing for the middle class. Because so many men were at war, housing production declined during the war, but as they returned, there was large demand for middle class housing. The mass production and uniformity was a way to help keep the houses affordable because materials could be purchased in bulk and homes could be built more quickly.

In Bend, most of the newer developments fit this definition, and the dislike many buyers have toward them is likely why many buyers are attracted to the west old Bend area and increasingly for the neighborhoods to the east of Third Street bordered by Revere and Franklin to the north and south. The newer high density developments typically have CC&R’s, Homeowner Associations and dues, and rules that restrict individuality

SCIENCE ADVICE GODDESS Penis On The Half-Shell

A guy my girlfriend dated seven years ago is now an aspiring artist, and he gave my girlfriend one of his paintings. It’s abstract, splashy, and horrible. I find it disrespectful of him to give it to her (because she’s in a relationship). She said he does lots of paintings, sells almost none, and gives them as gifts to all of his friends. I asked her to throw it away, but she said that would be “too mean” and shoved it under the bed. Am I being overly jealous, or is it wrong to accept gifts from exes?

Art — especially abstract art — says different things to different people.

To you, the painting screams, “Ha-ha, I had sex with your girlfriend!” To everyone else, it’s probably an expression of a moment — the one that came seconds after “Outta the way! I had some bad clams!”

It makes sense that a gift from a guy to your girlfriend would set off your internal alarms. Consider, as evolutionary behavioral scientist Gad Saad points out, that one sex — the male one — woos (as in, tries to get the other into bed) with gifts. When a guy arrives to pick a woman up, she doesn’t open the door with “Surprise, bro! Got you these

roses! Take off your pants!”

As I somewhat frequently explain, this difference comes out of how sex can cost women big-time in a way it doesn’t cost men — with pregnancy and the 18-year afterparty. So, women evolved to go for men who are willing and able to invest in any little, uh, nipple nibblers they give birth to, and gift-giving can be a signal of that.

Your being upset over the painting could be a subconscious reaction to this. But considering that this guy is handing out paintings like they’re “We Buy Gold!” leaflets, this gift to your girlfriend is probably a sign of a few things: He paints badly (though prolifically) and lacks storage space.

In general, as for whether it’s okay to accept gifts from exes, context counts. Did the two people break up just yesterday or a decade ago? Are there still feelings bubbling up? Was the ex’s gift, say, a tire jack or a diamond-encrusted thong?

Because this was just an ugly painting given to your girlAmy Alkon friend by a friend (long stripped of benefits), she did the kind thing and accepted it. So maybe just appreciate that her willingness to shove it under the bed relieves you of the need to suggest an even better location: a la “Can I offer you a steak — mesquite-grilled with just a hint of carcinogenic paint fumes?”

ASTROLOGY

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Would you scoff if I said that you’ll soon be blessed with supernatural assistance? Would you smirk and roll your eyes if I advised you to find clues to your next big move by analyzing your irrational fantasies?

Would you tell me to stop spouting nonsense if I hinted that a guardian angel is conspiring to blast a tunnel through the mountain you created out of a molehill? It’s OK if you ignore my predictions, Virgo. They’ll come true even if you’re a staunch realist who doesn’t believe in woowoo, juju, or mojo.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): This is the Season of Enlightenment for you.

That doesn’t necessarily mean you will achieve an ultimate state of divine grace. It’s not a guarantee that you’ll be freestyling in satori, samadhi, or nirvana. But one thing is certain: Life will conspire to bring you the excited joy that comes with deep insight into the nature of reality. If you decide to take advantage of the opportunity, please keep in mind these thoughts from designer Elissa Giles: “Enlightenment is not an asexual, dispassionate, headin-the-clouds, nails-in-the-palms disappearance from the game of life. It’s a volcanic, kick-ass, erotic commitment to love in action, coupled with hard-headed practical grist.”

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Some zoos sell the urine of lions and tigers to gardeners who sprinkle it in their gardens. Apparently the stuff scares off wandering house cats that might be tempted to relieve themselves in vegetable patches. I nominate this scenario to be a provocative metaphor for you in the coming weeks. Might you tap into the power of your inner wild animal so as to protect your inner crops? Could you build up your warrior energy so as to prevent run-ins with pesky irritants? Can you call on helpful spirits to ensure that what’s growing in your life will continue to thrive?

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): The fates have conspired to make it right and proper for you to be influenced by Sagittarian author Mark Twain. There are five specific bits of his wisdom that will serve as benevolent tweaks to your attitude. I hope you will also aspire to express some of his expansive snappiness. Now here’s Twain: 1. “You cannot depend on your eyes when your imagination is out of focus.” 2. “Education consists mainly in what we have unlearned.” 3. “It is curious that physical courage should be so common in the world and moral courage so rare.” 4. “When in doubt, tell the truth.”

5. “Thunder is good, thunder is impressive; but it is lightning that does the work.”

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): “My grandfather used to tell me that if you stir muddy water it will only get darker,” wrote I. G. Edmonds in his book “Trickster Tales.” “But if you let the muddy water stand still, the mud will settle and the water will become clearer,” he concluded. I hope this message reaches you in time, Capricorn. I hope you will then resist any temptation you might have to agitate, churn, spill wine into, wash your face in, drink, or splash around in the muddy water.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): In 1985, Maurizio Cattelan quit his gig at a mortuary in Padua, Italy and resolved to make a living as an artist. He started creating furniture, and ultimately evolved into a sculptor who specialized in satirical work. In

1999 he produced a piece depicting the Pope being struck by a meteorite, which sold for $886,000 in 2001. If there were ever going to be a time when you could launch your personal version of his story, Aquarius, it would be in the next ten months. That doesn’t necessarily mean you should go barreling ahead with such a radical act of faith, however. Following your bliss rarely leads to instant success.

It may take years. (16 in Cattelan’s case.) Are you willing to accept that?

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Tally up your physical aches, psychic bruises, and chronic worries.

Take inventory of your troubling memories, half-repressed disappointments, and existential nausea.

Do it, Pisces! Be strong. If you bravely examine and deeply feel the difficult feelings, then the cures for those feelings will magically begin streaming in your direction. You’ll see what you need to do to escape at least some of your suffering. So name your griefs and losses, my dear. Remember your near-misses and total fiascos. As your reward, you’ll be soothed and relieved and forgiven. A Great Healing will come.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Each of us comes to know the truth in our own way, says astrologer Antero Alli. “For some it is wild and unfettered,” he writes.

“For others it is like a cozy domesticated cat, while others find truth through their senses alone.”

Whatever your usual style of knowing the truth might be, Leo, I suspect you’ll benefit from trying out a different method in the next two weeks. Here are some possibilities: trusting your most positive feelings; tuning in to the clues and cues your body provides; performing ceremonies in which you request the help of ancestral spirits; slipping into an altered state by laughing nonstop for five minutes.

Far Out West

ARIES (March 21-April 19): I hope you’re making wise use of the surging fertility that has been coursing through you. Maybe you’ve been reinventing a long-term relationship that needed creative tinkering. Perhaps you have been hammering together an innovative business deal or generating new material for your artistic practice.

It’s possible you have discovered how to express feelings and ideas that have been half-mute or inaccessible for a long time. If for some weird reason you are not yet having experiences like these, get to work! There’s still time to tap into the fecundity.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Uruguayan writer Eduardo Galeano defines “idiot memory” as the kind of remembrances that keep us attached to our old self-images, and trapped by them. “Lively memory,” on the other hand, is a feisty approach to our old stories. It impels us to graduate from who we used to be. “We are the sum of our efforts to change who we are,” writes Galeano. “Identity is no museum piece sitting stock-still in a display case.”

Here’s another clue to your current assignment, Taurus, from psychotherapist Dick Olney: “The goal of a good therapist is to help someone wake up from the dream that they are their self-image.”

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Sometimes, Gemini, loving you is a sacred honor for me — equivalent to getting a poem on my birthday from the Dalai Lama.

On other occasions, loving you is more like trying to lap up a delicious milkshake that has spilled on the sidewalk, or slow-dancing with a giant robot teddy bear that accidentally knocks me down when it suffers a glitch. I don’t take it personally when I encounter the more challenging sides of you, since you are always an interesting place to visit. But could you maybe show more mercy to the people in your life who are not just visitors? Remind your dear allies of the obvious secret — that you’re composed of several different selves, each of whom craves different thrills.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Liz, my girlfriend when I was young, went to extreme lengths to cultivate her physical attractiveness. “Beauty must suffer,” her mother had told her while growing up, and Liz heeded that advice. To make her long blonde hair as wavy as possible, for example, she wrapped strands of it around six empty metal cans before bed, applied a noxious spray, and then slept all night with a stinky, clanking mass of metal affixed to her head. While you may not do anything so literal, Cancerian, you do sometimes act as if suffering helps keep you strong and attractive — as if feeling hurt is a viable way to energize your quest for what you want. But if you’d like to transform that approach, the coming weeks will be a good time.

Step One: Have a long, compassionate talk with your inner saboteur.

f you are anything like me (and by all that is holy, please let that not be the case) you’ve probably said to yourself many times: “Sure, I enjoy vaping, but,

by God, I enjoy my bong, too. Won’t someone think of my needs, the vapefriendly bong lover?”

Dear reader, your voice has been heard (most likely via an NSA-modified mic in your microwave, or the remote controlled two-way camera on your phone, computer or TV). A vaporizer with a water feature is now available to you.

While its name sounds like a CW Network sci-fi series, the Hydrology9 vaporizer is a nifty package of a high end handheld cordless vape married with a water feature to cool and clean the vapor while making the gurgling hubbly bubbly sound.

It looks like a real life lightsaber in the off position, and is about the size of a standard household flashlight. It weighs about as much as a Maglite as well; a solidly constructed piece comprised of “space grade anodized aluminum,” instead of that “bus grade non-anodized aluminum” flaming garbage crap used in lesser vaporizers.

The rest of the body and the mouthpiece is made of borosilicate glass, which should move you to nod sagely and murmur “Ah, yes...borosilicate.

Truly, the glass of kings.”

The heating chamber, aka “the oven,” is made of food grade porcelain and comes with a game-changing, built-in stirring tool. Midway through your session, simply turn the dial at the bottom of the unit and a small stainless steel piece, which resembles a dough hook on a KitchenAid mixer, twists and mixes through the material being vaporized. By exposing it so that the heat can more thoroughly extract THC, you get more hits and canna-bang for your bowl buck. It’s like a spinner for stoners.

The vaporizer has five heat settings,

with its temperature monitored and adjusted by a microchip processor. It handles flower only. OK, it’s supposed to handle flower only. Theoretically, if you were a cannabis columnist and one of these beauties showed up, and you were perhaps so excited to try it that you opted to forgo reading the instruction manual because doing so is a 16-ounce jar of Weak Sauce, and instead filled it with bubble hash? If you were to do that, yes, you would get high AF, clinically speaking, but you would also have a gooey mess that moves you to become very, very familiar with the enclosed set of cleaning tools. So I strongly encourage you to mind the flower part of the instruction booklet.

Bonus feature: Each temperature setting comes with its own damn light color changing show. Because, lightsaber? Y’all, I can’t even….

The hits were clean and varied in density based on the speed and power of my inhalations, just like a regular bong. There’s a diffuser in the unit which breaks the hits into smaller bubbles, increasing the cooling/cleaning effect. The spillproof magnetic cover kept my briefcase dry, too.

My unit came in a leather case (phrasing!), and while it’s a great handheld vape, I’m not certain I would use it exclusively when vaping on the go.

Its sleek design and multicolored lights draw the eye, so the stealth factor is absent. The battery has a recharge time of two to three hours, and it’s not swappable. Hold the unit by the glass midsection, as the battery based base gets very warm to the touch, especially when used at a rate that exceeds the manufacturer’s suggested cooling periods. Ahem.

Priced at $250, it would be a worthy investment for the light to mid-weight cannabis consumer who wants ease of use, high quality vape hits and a stylish piece of gear.
