epending on the angle from which you view it, the differences between the rural and urban areas in Central Oregon are either a yin-yang balance, or a divide as wide as a canyon. Yes, there are working cowboys here, and yes there also are computer programmers who sip their lattes and jawbone about their beer’s IBUs. This week’s issue touches down somewhere in that interface, with a couple articles looking at the friction between those two very different worlds—the wild rural spaces, and the tamed urban zones.

Most directly, our feature story this week (page 8) looks at the shooting of a cougar this past week on Pilot Butte—a space that is in some of our readers’ backyard! It is a reminder that part of the very natural beauty many note as this region’s greatest attribute is also one of the region’s most unpredictable factors.

Also, in this week’s Glass Slipper (page 6), we give a nod to Rep. Greg Walden, who has been a primary reason that the Secure Rural Schools Act looks to get back in circulation. First passed 15 years ago, that Act was set up to replace federal money for rural schools, which was lost when timber sales dried up. Bringing back—or at least holding onto— some public funding for rural schools is a critical issue for Central Oregon as the rift between graduation rates in urban and rural schools has drifted further apart.

Rep. Walden’s work to restore that funding is an important step toward lessening those differences.

Cowboy or computer programmer, we hope you enjoy this week’s issue.

OPINION LETTERS

Have something to say? Send your thoughts to editor@bendsource.com. Letters must be received by noon Friday for inclusion in the following week’s paper.

Please limit letters to 250 words. Submission does not guarantee publication. Letter of the week receives $5 to Palate!

In response to the March 26 letter from Stan Baker asking readers to support the TPP “Free Trade” agreement, I urge readers to check out Elizabeth Warren’s speech on the Senate Floor, probably on YouTube, against this impending catastrophe. This secret Act effectively gives international corporate governance power to bypass our legal and jurisprudence systems to screw us all in mind bending new ways. Obama, who I support in most everything else, as with Clinton and NAFTA, is all for this monstrosity, as are virtually all the Republicans in Congress. In fact, it is about the only “bipartisan” issue Republicans are willing agree with Obama about. You know if that’s the case, this train wreck is a disaster for all the rest of us. The text is too lengthy to go into here but is widely available on the net. Read it before you swallow Stan Baker’s Kool-Aid. —R.T.Tihista This week Wikileaks released the secret investment provisions of the Trans-Pacific Partnership. They would give overseas corporations the authority to sue towns and cities for implementing public health, environmental and consumer safeguards, which would allegedly hurt the company’s profits.

Lawsuits brought under this investor-state dispute settlement (ISDS) provision would be arbitrated outside of U.S. courts by unaccountable trade tribunals. ISDS suits have already challenged fracking moratoriums in Canada and cigarette advertising in Australia. Ironically, we taxpayers may end up paying for lawsuits brought about by U.S.based companies, which have operations in countries included in the pact.

The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) would undermine the laws that protect our public health. It would threaten our food security including local food for schools, GMO labeling, and country of origin labeling.

It would result in decreased employment, as companies would be free to operate in countries where they can take advantage of weaker labor and environmental rules.

Only the biggest multi-national corporations will benefit from the TPP and American citizens will pay the price.

I urge you to write your legislators in opposition to the Trans-Pacific Partnership.

IN REPLY TO DOING THE DAM THING (3/25)

The # 1 priority here should be overall health of the river. I’m glad there are groups

focused on fighting the private entities who are set on masking the core issues in the name of capitalism and profit. The rebuilding of a “new dam” and the restructuring of downtown (how did this idea get brought into the mix anyway?) is geared for nothing more than to protect the interests of a few (rich) property owners and for the financial gain of those wanting to win the contracts for construction. Think Halliburton.

DOWN WITH THE DAM. And please don’t let the money hungry one-percenters screw the rest of us out a flourishing, free-flowing river, full of wildlife, that provides for additional recreational opportunities. What’s best for the habitat is ultimately best for us: freetheriver.org.

CITY COUNCIL VOTES 4-3 TO SUPPORT MIRROR POND (3/19)

I’d really like to see Mirror Pond stay as close to the same as possible and it seems like the best way to get that result is the current proposal.

—Adam Johnson via facebook.com/ sourceweekly It’ll be cool, there are lots of great parks and things to do in this town! It just keeps blowing up, it’s kind of overwhelming to go out during First Friday and big events though. I just hope that I can continue to afford to live here forever.

—Christopher Cook via facebook.com/ sourceweekly Loss of parking will hurt downtown and the traffic. I have heard arguments that it will encourage greener transportation, but quite seriously most of Bend is not bike friendly to get to and from downtown. It’s hard enough during events and First Friday to find parking, even the parking garage is usually full. Without better plans for parking and traffic, this plan is not completely agreeable to me.

—Colin Gladden via facebook.com/ sourceweekly Oh great. Let’s add a row of four story condos, shops, and bars. And no parking.

Great for a few developer carpetbaggers. I saw this type of “urban renewal” in another community. Created traffic gridlock problems and caused shops and small restau-

Putting Money Where It Belongs A year ago, Congress’ “job approval” rating hit an all-time low, 13 percent. Over the past year, that approval rating has climbed to 23 percent, which yes, is an improvement, but still dismal, and still hamstrung by the constant partisan bickering and stunts like writing letters to Iran’s leaders.

But not everything at the U.S. Capitol is broken.

Last week, Rep. Greg Walden, who represents pretty much all of Oregon east of the Cascades, helped resurrect and restore the Secure Rural Schools Act. Although not a perfect or necessarily long-term solution, the Act will provide tens of millions in federal funding to schools in rural counties.

First passed in 2000, the Secure Rural Schools Act stepped into a void left by waning timber sales. In the previous decades, hundreds of rural counties received a quarter of revenues generated from timber sales from national forests. The arrangement was controversial— ballyhooed by environmentalists as a sort of “blood money”—but it delivered millions each year to fix rural roads and fund schools. But, as timber sales plummeted in the ’80s and ’90s, the plan proved to not be sustainable.

In 2000, Congress wisely stepped in and changed the funding system for counties and schools with passage of the Secure Rural Schools and Community Self-Determination Act. The law replaced revenue sharing with a guaranteed level of payments no longer tied to the amount of timber produced from the national forests.

But unfortunately, the Secure Rural Schools Act also is neither secure nor solid. It first expired in 2006, and has since been renewed a couple times; it has been subject to the whims of Congress, and in the final days of the last Congress was pulled from the omnibus spending legislation.

However, at that same time, just before Christmas, Rep. Walden secured a commitment from House Speaker John Boehner to get the program re-funded by the end of the first quarter of this year—and, right at deadline, they are doing just that. At press time, it is scheduled for a vote and is likely to move easily through the Senate.

It is a plan worth about $300 million annually to rural counties in 39 different states, and includes a heavy dose of funding for Central and Southern Oregon. Rightfully so, Walden’s staff pointed to Josephine as a prime example: Without the Secure Rural Schools Act, the county would lose $1 million in federal funding and need to cut its 9-1-1 service and lay off several law enforcement officers.

Thirty-three of Oregon’s 36 counties qualify for the funding, money that is particularly keen because it is delivering funding directly to schools in rural areas, including Deschutes and Jefferson counties.

For the past two years, Oregon has ranked as one of the states with the worst on-time graduation rates in the country—and more than any other indicator, the primary demographic to not graduate was not race or gender-based, but socio-economic; overall, 70 percent of those who did not graduate were from low-income families, the bulk located in these rural counties.

Summit High and Bend High, both of which draw from solidly middleclass and suburban neighborhoods, have strong on-time graduation rates (92 percent, 90 percent), while other schools in the same school district, but drawing from more rural and poorer areas have distinctly lower graduation rates—with La Pine Senior High right at the state average (72 percent), and Redmond High only graduating two out of three students (67 percent).

Rep. Walden helping restore funding for the Secure Rural Schools Act is an example of finding an important solution for an immediate problem.

And, what’s more, the restoration of the Secure Rural Schools Act shows an important ability for bipartisan work, as Rep. Walden’s office worked with Rep. Peter Defazio, a progressive Democrat who represents much of the mid-Willamette Valley.

Two gold stars for Rep. Walden this week!

(Nearly) 100 Days Progress Report Checking in with Bend’s newest City Councilors

SIDE NOTES

BY ERIN ROOK

BY ERIN ROOK. PHOTOS BY MATT FOX.

CASEY ROATS

Source Weekly: Since starting on Council, what has caught you most by surprise?

Casey Roats: I have been most surprised to learn how costly and time consuming our Urban Growth Boundary expansion process has been. The 2008 proposal was over 8,000 acres and was remanded back to Bend by the State. The current range of proposed new acreage is between 1,000 and 3,000 acres. If we end up with a proposal that only adds 1,000 new acres for our mandated 20-year developable land supply, it won’t have done anything to address the underlying economic drivers that are making housing too expensive. You can’t build affordable homes on land that isn’t affordable as well.

NATHAN BODDIE

Source Weekly: Since starting on Council, what has caught you most by surprise?

Nathan Boddie: While not perhaps a surprise, I think the slow pace at which I am able to address the issues I find most important, has been a reminder of just how change seems to those who do not want it, and just how slowly it proceeds for those of us working towards some-

BARB CAMPBELL

Source Weekly: Since starting on Council, what has caught you most by surprise?

Barb Campbell: I am surprised by how little time there is to brainstorm and discuss ideas with the Council as a whole. It’s for an important reason—all deliberations involving a quorum must be made in a public, accessible meeting—but it’s a challenge. We’ve added a third, monthly meeting on the first Friday of the month just to try and address this. For the next two months those meetings have

SW: Have you changed your perspective or position on any issues since starting on Council?

CR: I’ve changed my perspective to a certain degree on funding of our bus system. I have traditionally been skeptical of just dumping money into a bus system that only recoups less than 20 percent of its costs through ridership. There is a proposal to target additional routes and frequency of buses in higher density residential areas with destinations at the college, the hospital, and other similar destinations. I think it’s a smarter and more focused approach to helping meet the transportation needs of more people in our community.

SW: What do you think are the biggest issues on Council’s plate now and for the rest of 2015?

CR: I think 2015 will be dominated with OSU-Cascades, Mirror Pond and associated redevelopment in the area, short-term rentals, and issues surrounding the commercial uses around Galveston. I think that most of these issues can be tied back to our larger problem of, how is Bend going to grow and where? For the crowd that is philosophically opposed to a UGB expansion, my question is, “What parts of town are we going to alter significantly to meet the various needs of a growing city?” Every time change comes to a part of town, whether that be breweries going in, proposed apartment buildings, demand for short-term housing etc., the neighbors are adamantly opposed. I would prefer to not have to change the character of large parts of the existing city, but instead through smart and efficient land use planning, let Bend grow east and west accommodating those various demands. thing new. Of course this is a safety feature built into any legislative process and we wouldn’t want to careen around from one direction to another. My work on council is more of a marathon than a sprint.

SW: Have you changed your perspective or position on any issues since starting on Council?

NB: As a new Councilor, I think it would be arrogant to think I understood every issue adequately coming out of a campaign and I endeavor to keep an open mind and look at an issue without a predisposed agenda or bias. OSU-Cascades is perhaps the issue about which I’ve learned most since starting. While I continue to have misgivings about impacts to housing and transportation, I am encouraged that we can find solutions to these challenges wherever a university is ultimately located.

SW: What do you think are the biggest issues on Council’s plate now and for the rest of 2015?

NB: First, second, and third, are all affordability. How we work on that through urban growth boundary expansion, affordable housing code changes, and vacation rental regulation are all issues I am working on actively. Protecting natural resources is also a priority for Council and includes Tumalo Creek restoration, as well as how we expand our UGB to avoid undue risk to Bend citizens’ health or financial stability. morphed into budget meetings, but I am hopeful we’ll have more time once the budget is finalized in the next couple of months.

SW: Have you changed your perspective or position on any issues since starting on Council?

BC: The new “preferred plan”—preferred by a tiny sliver of our population, the Park Board, and a slim majority of the City Council— to restore Mirror Pond and redevelop downtown is so egregious and unworkable it makes me think I might rather just dredge the darn thing for the $2 million-$5 million that was being discussed in 2012.

SW: What do you think are the biggest issues on Council’s plate now and for the rest of 2015?

BC: Urban Growth Boundary expansion: Council, staff, and community volunteers have been steadfastly working to have our expansion plan ready for the State on schedule.

Transportation: Our streets are crumbling. Our network of sidewalks is fragmented and impassable for many disabled folks. If we don’t improve/expand our bus system and get better connectivity with our bike lanes, we have no hope of integrating a new university campus in to our community. These are daunting challenges but I feel confident the time is ripe for a major transportation overhaul.

For the full scoop, read the extended interviews online at bendsource.com.

An activist group called Cascadia Forest Defenders protested proposed clear cuts in the Deschutes National Forest on Monday by hanging a banner from the Highway 97 overpass above Greenwood Avenue that read “Entering Deschutes National Forest: Where Recreation and Clearcuts Abound!”

The Defenders, a grassroots environmental organization opposed to what it calls the “ecologically and environmentally exploitative” practices of the timber industry, claims that the Forest Service is engaging in clearcutting under the guise of “renamed regeneration harvests, seed tree harvests, or group selections.” The group also expressed concerns in a press release about old growth logging, the use of herbicides near wetlands, and the loss of spotted owl habitat.

If you haven’t burnt out on discussing—or listening to other people talk about—vacation rentals, the Bend Chamber is hosting a business-oriented town hall on just that topic. The event will focus on the potential impacts of any City regulations on property and business owners, with panelists including Rob Moore of Arbor Mortgage, Sue Carrington of Bend Dutch Vacation Rentals, and Jon Skidmore of City of Bend. The forum will be held on Tuesday, April 7 at the Deschutes Brewery Public House starting at 5:30 pm (with mixing and mingling beginning at 5 pm). Tickets are $15 for Chamber members and $20 for the general public.

Rep. Knute Buehler wants to give people the freedom to be guinea pigs. That is, he is spearheading a bill that would allow terminally ill patients to access treatments that are still technically in the experimental phase, and not yet approved for general use. The bill wouldn’t open the floodgates to snake oil salesmen, rather it would allow access to treatments that have completed Phase 1 of the Food and Drug Administration’s approval process. House Bill 2300, dubbed the “Right to Try” bill, recently unanimously passed the House Health Care committee.

Cat Fight Cougar sightings spark debate about management

BY ERIN ROOK

Last Saturday, a brilliant spring day, around 6:45 pm, just as the sun was beginning to set, a hiker spotted a young male cougar sitting within sight of the trail. He wasn’t on some remote, backcountry pathway, but was walking up Pilot Butte, the popular state park with trails that snake around the 500 foot cider cone that looms over Bend’s east side, and sits adjacent to an elementary and middle school.

The hiker called 9-1-1, and Bend police officers responded when an ODFW staffer was not available to assist. Though police are not specifically trained in responding to predator sightings, public information officer Lt. Clint Burleigh says officers do what’s required to keep people safe.

“Whenever we have a situation where the public is in danger, we need to make a decision about what to do,” Burleigh says. “We’re set up to help with rabid or violent dogs, but we’re not set up for cougars.”

Typically, he explains, when police get an animal complaint, officers go out and see if there’s any evidence of a cougar. “If we find the cougar, we call ODFW,” Burleigh says.

“That’s their specialty.”

But this time, they weren’t available. ODFW Wildlife Communications Coordinator Michelle Dennehy says that the department has just two wildlife biologists covering some 6,000 miles of territory. Police officers do carry tranquilizer guns, but those are intended for use on dogs—not massive cats that weigh upward of 200 pounds—and can take up to 15 minutes to work. Officers were concerned that shooting the cougar last Saturday might simply aggravate the cat and make a scary situation something much worse.

This was the second cougar spotted—and subsequently put to death—this year in Bend.

The first was a juvenile male discovered lounging in a tree in SE Bend on January 30. He was tranquilized by Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife staff before being euthanized.

But while the close proximity of these two incidents lends an impression that cougar-human encounters are on the rise, ODFW statistics show a relatively even trend, with some periodic fluctuation. Dennehy points out that the cougar population is thriving in Oregon, with an estimated 6,000 currently living in the state. Generally, the total number of cougars killed each year in Deschutes County tends to swing between five and 10—and, of those, a small portion is because of concern over human safety. In 2014, for example, of the 10 cougars the ODFW recorded as deceased in Deschutes County, just one was killed out of concern for human safety. By contrast, 4 deaths were attributable to damage, another 4 to legal hunting, and the remaining one was road kill.

Yet, as cougar and human populations both continue to increase—and to live in closer proximity with each other—conflicts become more difficult to avoid.

“In some locales, our human communities have developed in areas already occupied

by many species of wildlife, including predators such as cougars,” explains Daniel Gumtow-Farrior, a professor of natural resources at OSU-Cascades. “A cougar can easily travel several miles per day; through development, we have essentially moved into cougars’ living rooms and instead of being surprised or shocked at sightings of cougars, we should expect sightings of cougars in these areas and work to develop effective, long-term avoidance and mitigation strategies.”

But, he points out, even experts disagree on whether shooting individual cougars in human-occupied areas is an effective management response.

“Effective predator management, including cougar management, should not be based on natural human fears, anecdotal or media accounts,” Gumtow-Farrior explains, “but rather based on empirical scientific data and sound ecological principles.”

Those protocols, though, do not always favor protecting the cougar’s life. Dennehy says that ODFW policy precludes the relocation of adult cougars because of the perceived likelihood of the animal creating problems someplace else, and a lack of available territory.

“If you relocate a problem cougar, it often goes on to create the same problems in a different area,” she says. “Cougar habitat area in Oregon is pretty well occupied.”

But some studies indicate that killing cougars increases conflict, rather than mitigating the threat to humans and domesticated animals. Research by the Washington State University Department of Natural Resource Sciences Large Carnivore Conservation Lab in 2012 found that heavy hunting increases the number of young male cougars and that this population is more likely to enter into human-occupied areas than older animals. As such, the researchers hypothesized that this is why killing cougars does not necessarily result in a reduced number of complaints.

What is less clear is whether these measures are to thank for the fact that there is no official record of a human being killed by a wild cougar in Oregon—and, all told, only an estimated 20 people have been killed by cougars in North American between 1890 and 2011; six of which were in California.

Bend City Councilor Barb Campbell says she’s especially concerned about the management of the local cougar population, but is hopeful that increased attention could lead to change.

“I feel confident we can work with our local police force and ODFW to establish a policy that keeps our citizens safe, but also prioritizes saving the lives of the animals,” Campbell says. “When they can be safely relocated out into the wilderness, they might not survive, but they will at least have a chance.”

SOUND A Love Supreme

THE SOURCE

Jazz quartet brings John Coltrane’s legacy to Bend

SUGGESTS...

BY ANNE PICK

BY ERIN ROOK

ALTHOUGH THEIR COMBINED AGES HARDLY TOTAL 50, THEY ARE CELEBRATING COLTRANE’S 50TH ANNIVERSARY OF “LOVE SUPREME.” 4/4. PHOTO BY SONALI SAMPAT.

Though jazz music doesn’t enjoy the mainstream popularity it did in the mid-20th century, there are certain albums and songs whose influence has permeated the nation’s musical ground water. John Coltrane’s masterpiece “A Love Supreme,” release 50 years ago February, is one of these classics.

While it’s not uncommon for jazz to touch on religious themes, or inspire spiritual impulses, Coltrane’s 1945 album was essentially a poetic prayer put to music. In the liner notes, the poem on which the four-part composition is based is dedicated to the praise of God and the enumeration of the universality of that supreme love.

“I’d like to point out to people the divine in a musical language that transcends words,” Coltrane is often quoted as saying. “I want to speak to their souls.”

But the praise-filled lines are not among the song’s lyrics—at least, not in a literal sense. The only spoken words in the piece are a brief chant of, “A love supreme. A love supreme.” But neither is the composition a pure abstraction on religious themes. In the final passage of the piece, Coltrane puts the rhythm of the poem’s words to melody, enunciating them through the plaintive sounds of the tenor saxophone.

When former Bendite Torrey Newheart first heard “A Love Supreme,” as a high school musician, he says he was struck by the overarching theme.

“It definitely had an impact,” Newheart, now 24 and with a master’s in jazz, recalls. “The large point that he was trying to make with it was being grateful for being alive and something greater than yourself, just being human. You can really feel that. I really latched onto that when I first heard it.”

Though he’s not particularly religious, Newheart says the album’s universalistic perspective resonates with him. That’s part of why he’s touring with a quartet of young musicians to offer their unique

interpretation of Coltrane’s iconic tune.

“For me personally, one of my goals playing music in general is to take somebody out of themselves for a moment,” Newheart explains. “I think most people have had that when experiencing art, that moment when you get lost and have no idea how much time is going by—that kind of exchange is very important to me.”

Pianist Newheart will be performing with another Bendite— drummer Adam Carlson. Newheart attended Bend High School, while Carlson went to Mountain View, but the two began playing music together after they met in a class at Cascades School of Music. Bellevue’s Sean Peterson on bass and Ashland’s Adam Harris on saxophone will join the hometown boys for a special performance of “A Love Supreme” in Bend on Saturday, April 4.

Newheart says that it’s an intimidating piece to play, and has demanding significantly more rehearsal time than other projects he’s worked on. Part of that demand is due to the piece’s iconic status, but part is because it relies so heavily on improvisation. There’s no sheet music, he explains. Rather, the song is built on a couple simple blues melodies—Newheart uses a single sheet of paper with bullet points as his guideposts.

“John Coltrane is an iconic figure and ‘A Love Supreme’ is his big thing,” Newheart says. “To do it any kind of justice you have to go deep into those philosophical questions, [including] are you able to stay in the moment for 45 minutes? It takes so much focus.”

Sweetwater String Band Sweetwater String Band brings together all the best elements of bluegrass and traditional mountain music inspired by the desert and mountain landscapes of its Mammoth Lakes, Calfornia, home. The band plays high-energy, cello-driven bluegrass as well as more traditional, easy-going ballads. Translation: booty-shaking. 8-10 pm. Sunday, April 5. Volcanic Theatre Pub, 70 SW Century Dr.

A Love Supreme: 50th Anniversary Tribute Featuring Adam Carlson, Adam Harris, Torrey Newheart, and Sean Peterson.

FAMILIAR FACES, DIFFERENT SOUND. PHOTO BY KATE (BAND MOM) YOCHUM.

Bradley David Parsons is finally ready to invite you into his world.

A drummer since the age of 10 and the percussive backbone of Bend’s popular folk-rock quartet Wilderness, Parsons has been writing songs of his own for years—quietly honing his voice as a songwriter and vocalist.

Though more than happy playing drums in Wilderness (a role he fully intends on keeping), Parsons felt a growing desire to front a project of his own and share his unique musical perspective with others. When a window opened up in the group’s busy schedule, he pulled the trigger and recruited a few friends (including his brother Tyler Parsons and Wilderness bandmate Nick Graham) to finally bring his songs to life.

“It was one of those now or never situations, where maybe I can balance it or maybe I can’t,” Parsons explains, “but I thought I might as well give it a shot.”

Just like that, Corner Gospel Explosion was born. On the foundation of Parson’s crisp percussion that deftly funnels wild energy into precise strokes, CGE blends reverb-soaked guitars with heavy bass and splashes of synths to create moody atmospheric rock that would nicely soundtrack the wet and foggy Oregon days that inspire the songs themselves.

“I grew up in the valley, so I was born with rain around me all the time. The best times for me to write and record songs are when there’s nasty weather outside with rain and tons of fog,” says Parsons. “I really love melancholy music in general and I’m a big fan of the shoegaze genre.”

Over a self-described “spooky” musical backdrop, Parsons delivers metaphor-heavy lyrics that leverage approachable subjects like grandfather clocks and fish, to weave intricate narratives that grapple with slippery topics including human mortality and love. This colorful approach to songwriting can at least partially be attributed to the non-musical forms of storytelling he draws inspiration from.

“I had just recently gotten into podcasts when I started writing lyrics. I really enjoy NPR shows like This American Life and Radiolab,” reveals Parsons. “Those are great because they’re non-visual and open your mind to new ideas and new ways of thinking—and the storytelling is at a top-notch level.” He adds, “I actually listen to more podcasts than I do music. Things like that inspire me a lot. It can be exhausting to just throw yourself into the music world and stay there. Having that escape of, ‘OK, we’re going to learn about elephants today,’ is always a nice little break.”

The generally serious tone of the music is contrasted nicely by the quirky personality of the band members themselves. Named after a phrase that Parsons happened to see on a random church sign in Portland (which by no stretch of the imagination actually describes the music they play), Corner Gospel Explosion has no master plan. A set of tongue-in-cheek band photos reveals members of the group casually standing around with pumpkins on their heads and a one-liner description of their sound reads, “We sound like bands that have ‘bear’ in the name.” Their priorities are clear: play music and have fun doing it.

“We want to have as much fun as possible, but play as best we can as well,” Parsons offers.

“When you reach that balance, it’s something special.

After releasing a self-titled debut EP in January, Corner Gospel Explosion finally shifted its focus to the stage, and turned the initial obstacle of figuring out what to do with a lead vocalist who plays drums, into a cornerstone of the group’s spirited performances.

“I think people enjoy seeing a left-handed drummer with the kit switched around backwards, singing lead,” Parsons says. “It’s a little insane—even for me—trying to pull it all together. It’s a bit of a spectacle.”

Tea For All

Metolius Tea is homegrown, but globally appealing

BY ALLI MILES

Metolius Tea & Apothecary owner Amy Seidenverg was living in New York and studying the theory of history when she stumbled upon an herb shop in Brooklyn that changed her life’s path. The Brooklyn herb shop held a community class, where Seidenverg discovered she had a hidden passion for plant medicine and herbal remedies. Returning to the Pacific Northwest (she is from Bend originally), she studied with expert herbalists, developed a program to teach children about herbal remedies and basic ailments, and began designing a medicinal tea line for Townshend’s Tea Company. From there, Seidenverg soon discovered the art of blending for flavor.

“I learned that no matter how effective a tea might be, say, on a sore throat, it won’t work if the sick person won’t drink it,” she explained.

Branching out on her own, with many mentors and guides believing in her and supporting her along the way, Seidenverg grew Metolius Tea & Apothecary, a premium Bend-based tea company.

While sourcing ingredients from all over the world, Metolius Tea & Apothecary incorporates as many locally and regionally-sourced ingredients as possible. Lavender and blueberries are always sourced from Oregon; however, certain plants are best grown and processed in their native countries.

“My favorite region for tea is Assam, India,” Seidenverg explains. “I blend with Assam a lot because I feel the malty, rich flavor pairs well with many herbs and spices without getting lost in the background.”

Seidenverg also considers the social, environmental, and economic impacts of each ingredient that she buys. But, this doesn’t necessarily mean all of her ingredients are certified organic. Some farms are very small and cannot afford certification, Seidenverg says, explaining, “Small farm, family, artisanal teas and herbs carry a vibrant nature that I want to share. That’s more important to me than having organic certification.”

For flavor inspiration, Seidenverg seeks to blend the medicinal benefits of the herbs with flavors that bring pleasure to the drinker.

“The North blend, for example, is the ideal tea for sugar monsters like myself,” Seidenverg explains. Coconut gives the tea a smooth, thick body, cardamom, ginger, and peppercorns give it warmth, while cinnamon and licorice regulate blood sugar levels, creating a blend that feels like a sweet treat yet curbs sugar cravings and helps stabilize blood sug-

MICRO REVIEW

Three Creeks: All Grown Up Expansion, special beers, and a grand opening all due this spring

EASTER BRUNCH

BY KEVIN GIFFORD

One rule of thumb for all beer fans: A craft brewery where everyone knows your name is truly a comforting, gratifying experience.

A McDonald’s where everyone knows your name, meanwhile, might be an indication that you need to adjust your eating habits.

Sisters resident Don McKay, along those lines, is particularly blessed. For the past five springs in a row, Three Creeks Brewing in Sisters has been kind enough to release McKay’s Scottish Ale, a pub exclusive that features a dark, smoky flavor that’s easy on the hops but long on the flavor. (Don is the guy with the bushy white beard and the top hat. He’s fairly unmissable. If you see him at the pub, tell him the Source said hi.)

McKay’s Scottish Ale ‘s release is a well-established annual event over at Three Creeks by now, but the rest of the year is shaping up to be one full of changes—and expansion, of course. The outfit’s new production brewery (originally announced back last fall) is now up and running over in north Sisters, just over a mile from the original brewpub, which serves as your first town landmark when driving in from Bend. It’s capable of producing up to 20,000 barrels per year, and the crew’s now putting it to fine use, brewing up the Knotty Blonde, Hoodoo Voodoo IPA, and FivePine Chocolate Porter that it now distributes statewide in cans.

This leaves the brewpub system free for more one-off projects like McKay’s, and the brewery already has three new beers set to debut at the bar in early April. If you live close to downtown Bend and the concept of actually driving to a brewery strikes you as alien, now might be a good time to visit Sisters and check out the bar space—the beer is pouring fine, the décor is attractively Western (not the Texas Roadhouse sort of Western), and the burgers, entrees, and pizza are all enticing. You could always procrastinate a little longer if you like, too—Three Creeks is planning a big grand-opening party at its production brewery during Central Oregon Beer Week in May.

ART WATCH

Artist of the Month: Lee White Embracing the whimsical

BY KELSEY ROOK

SAN FRANCISCO OWL. ILLUSTRATED BY LEE WHITE. What does an artist do when his work seems to elicit the same response— that it looks like an image from a kid’s book?

He runs with it, establishing himself as a successful and prolific children’s book illustrator with almost 20 books under his belt.

Illustrator Lee White’s drawings inhabit a dreamland where children ride seahorses like ponies and a pianist plays his grand piano atop a giant striped cat. Audiences both young and old are drawn to the playful magic in White’s fantastical world, whether they encounter it at a library or in his booth at Art in the High Desert. For the artist himself, observing the nostalgia and joy his images inspire in others is what brings his dreamy works to life.

Source Weekly: A lot of your drawings have a very soft and whimsical quality to them. Is this an effect of illustrating children’s books, or have you always drawn in this style? Do you have a stash of angry drawings somewhere that are super dark and painted in blood?

Lee White: That’s pretty funny and I have definitely heard that before! I think I was just meant to make the kind of images I make.

When I was in college, some of my instructors wanted more “serious” work out of me, but the funny thing is that it always looked like kids book stuff. Even during my “college angst” phase, people would comment with, “How whimsical!” I love hearing and seeing people react with delight as they come across my work. They may not have seen children’s book work since they were little, [but] they just light up and it looks like they are remembering something deep and nostalgic. I figure there are enough dark images in the world right now. I just want to make something that makes people happy.

SW: What does your illustration process look like? Are there any particular media you favor for certain projects?

LW: My process is all over the place. I started out in acrylic and then moved to oil, then pastel, digital, and finally watercolor. The first time I laid down a wash of watercolor I knew it was special.

I just loved watching the shapes change and colors blend on the wet paper. It’s great because no matter how much you plan, watercolor will do what it wants. You are just along for the ride. When I

painted in acrylic and oil I just felt like I was filling things in like a coloring book. Watercolor is alive and spontaneous. It also mixes well with other media like colored pencils and pastels so I use those techniques too. When I do publishing work I tend to work digitally because it’s fast and I can edit quickly.

SW: You’re a pretty prolific children’s book illustrator. How did you get into the “picture book” business?

LW: I went to school for illustration at the Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California, where I studied illustration and entertainment design and loved all of it. Like I said before, all my work looked so specific to kids’ books, so it seemed like the logical route to go. Once I graduated, I went to New York and did portfolio drop offs at quite a few publishers. I ended up signing with an artist’s agent and they got my foot in the door. It started off slow and didn’t pay well, but now I’m on my 20th book and it has gotten way better. It’s a fairly stable industry to be in as an artist once you get in the door. The hard part is actually getting in the door.

SW: Any plans to write a children’s book now that you have a kiddo yourself?

LW: I am writing my own stories and those should be on the shelves in about two years. It’s great to do the writing because I can craft the story around images that I think are interesting. I have a lot of stories floating around in my head and I’m slowly getting them down on paper.

SW: A lot of your work has a good deal of depth—there is so much happening in the details of your drawings. Is this a result of creating pictures that tell a story to kids who might not know how to read?

LW: I think it comes from really thinking about what is happening in a story. I don’t want it to paint “realistic” but I want people to be able to feel what it’s like to be in the story. A lot of times when I am painting, I picture how it sounds in a scene. I can hear the crisp snow crunching underneath my feet or feel the sun on my skin. I want to convey that to people so they get something more than just [what’s] drawn in there. I want an emotional response.

Throughout April at the Red Chair Gallery in downtown Bend, aspiring high school students will experience the ins and outs of a “real world” art show— from the jury selection process to hanging and pricing and (hopefully) selling their work.

For the past four years—almost as long as the gallery has been in existence—the women at the helm of Red Chair Gallery have taken their model of representation for local artists to area high schools with the goal of encouraging young artistic talent and entrepreneurship.

“We view ourselves as very community-minded,” said co-owner Lise Hoffman-McCabe. “We’re trying hard to give the students real experience [by] giving local artists representation where they might not have it otherwise.”

The students whose work will be on display during the First Friday Art Walk are required by the gallery to sign a standard 30-day contract outlining commission rates, payment schedules, and gallery requirements. For many, this will be the first time that their art has been for sale in a retail space.

“The only real stumbling block is that [the art] must be framed to gallery specifications—no picture hangers or Plexiglas,” said Hoffman-McCabe.

For students Nicole Bitterlich and Chloe Baker, their gallery experience will continue throughout the month as the two young women embark on an internship experience to include jurying art from other schools, working four-hour shifts at the gallery, and participating in workshops taught by the established artists represented at Red Chair.

“If you’re planning on being an artist as a side job or as a career rather than a hobby, it’s extremely helpful if you can get your nose in the business when you’re young,” said Bitterlich, a senior at Bend High School who plans to pursue a career in the Air Force.

Mountain View High School student Chloe Baker will be showing her fractured self-portrait titled “All Eyes on Me,” which also won a Scholastic Gold Key and American Visions Award this winter. Although she was part of the gallery’s showcase last year, she is excited to have her work seen by an audience, and to support her classmates whose pieces will hang alongside hers.

“It feels a bit unreal to have a piece you’ve worked so hard on to actually be appreciated by an audience or be lucky enough to have a buyer,” said Baker. “I am very excited for the art walk, mainly to see the faces of my classmates who also got into this showing when they see their work on the walls.”

Use that in a musical?

BY PHIL BUSSE

Ten years ago, 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee, an interactive musical, stormed Broadway, capturing six Tony nominations and a Grammy nomination for its songs.

The performance is a perfect storm of improv comedy, theatrical flare and gleeful musical numbers. This month, the musical is being staged for the first time in Central Oregon.

Recently, the Source sat down with director Karen Sipes, a local actress and vocal coach herself, to hear her insights into the play, and musicals in general.

Source Weekly: Certainly for the percentage of performances in town, there seems to be a large number of musicals—Beauty & the Beast earlier this year, Les Mis last year and Avenue Q is coming up.

Karen Snipes: I definitively see that trend continuing.

Bend has a lot of talented singers and performers, and they are passionate.

SW: I suppose that a musical about a spelling bee seemed inevitable. There was the book—and movie— Bee Season, and the documentary Spellbound, and even Bad Words, a recent big screen comedy with Jason Bateman. Why do you think there is such a cultural fascination with spelling bees?

KS: We are fascinated with kids who have an extraordinary talent in one area. And a lot of the population are bad spellers. It is a little like the Olympics. You see people doing what you can’t imagine doing.

SW: Okay, I can understand that appeal of the subject matter, but why a musical?

KS: The musical lends itself to a great deal of humor.

When you take a thought and put into song, or when you put music to [an idea] you put in all these elements of beauty or sadness. It just makes for an enjoyable experience.

There has been a buzz about this play for a while. It was on the top 10 list of Broadway plays, and when I heard the music from it, I was absolutely enchanted. It’s one of the funniest musicals I’ve seen in a long time—a lot of pathos, and touching moments; the characters are just really unique

and quirky.

SW: Maybe this seems like a simple question, but why is it funny? Is it funny in the way that many other contemporary musicals are, like Book of Mormon or Avenue Q (which Sipes is directing in a few months), which is from its shock value.

KS: It is funny because the characters are incredibly quirky. This is adolescent angst at its best, and we’re using adults to play children. Each has a well-defined character, and each has something quirky. These are almost caricatures. It is nine really defined characters and there is something about each one that goes a little beyond the norm in some way.

SW: Nine! That’s a lot. What was the casting process like?

KS: We had a lot of talent come out. Because I am a vocal instructor, I listened to vocal potential, and expression, as well as a certain amount of comedic timing.

There were nine people that fit—people who can vocally carry out the roles, have a comic sense of timing, and who can bring a certain amount of tenderness or pathos when it is needed. These are nine lead characters. There is no chorus. There are no bit characters. The talent base in Bend is pretty remarkable. We found that in Les Mis, when 170 some people auditioned.

Greek-American-Bend Poet Stephanos Papadopoulos kicks off poetry month

HE IS A POET, AND YES HE KNOWS IT. PAPADOPOULOS READS 4/2.

For Greek-American and Bend-based writer Stephanos Papadopoulos, the poems collected in his recent book The Black Sea embody the “inherited memories” of his ancestors. His grandfather, a tobacco merchant who was born in Samsounda, recounted to his grandchildren the trials of the Pontic Greeks of The Black Sea, and the Asia Minor Catastrophe of the early 20th century. Though many of his readers won’t be familiar with the exact situations that inspired Papadopoulos’ collection, they’ll discover many universal themes—family, myth, history, and the legacy of a distant, yet haunting, landscape.

Papadopoulos was born in the United States, yet spent much of his childhood in Paris and

Athens, where his father was a well-known Greek artist (NONDA 1922-2005). As a young man, he began to ponder his connection to the place where so many of his ancestors suffered and died, and turned to poetry as a way to imagine these “voices” from the past, and the stories they had to tell. He traveled by motorcycle from Athens and rode though Anatolia, along the southern coast of the Black Sea, exploring the villages and birthplaces of his forebears.

“Sometimes I feel poetry is a way of holding onto my childhood,” Papadopoulos says, “preserving those memories without the crippling effects of nostalgia. Those images are deeply Greek for me and, even though I write in English as a Greek and American poet, inescapable.”

The most resonant of these images, which are reflected in the sonnets of The Black Sea, are articulated by characters, both real and imagined, who have everything at stake. In “The Poet in the Harbor,” Papadopoulos explores the role of the poet in history: “He likes to lie down in the mounts of fishnets / with the dogs, with the ghosts of dolphins / snared by negligence, by careless ropes cut loose, / by a second in which joy becomes abandon / and abandon, as it never fails to do, / enters the realm of tragedy, and so he likes / to go down there alone and fall asleep / in the nets with the dogs and the reek of the sea.”

In “Roads,” an unnamed man wanders the gravel roads of a coastal town: “He walked bare-headed and empty-handed / toward those smiles, thin descending slashes / glimpsed through a parted door and door frame.”

Throughout The Black Sea, Papadopoulos manages to weave together the bleak tragedies of a lost generation—his own family history, imagined lives, firsthand accounts—to create something that is not singularly tragic. Instead, there is a kind of quiet acceptance that comes in the final page: “I’m a name they never spoke, I stepped from the ashes / blind, deaf and dumb to what they saw, still a witness / by some force that drags me toward hills with nothing / but the shards of words passed on, the crumbling photographs, / the tears that slid from my father and grandfather / through the huge black eyes of paintings and into mine; / that week when the light breaks on these imaginary cliffs.”

As part of a celebration for National Poetry Month, Papadopoulos will read his poetry at 6:30 pm, Thursday, April 2 at Barnes & Noble, 2690 NE Hwy 20.

Gold Hunting!

BY CORBIN GENTZLER

Last summer, I worked at Bend Park & Rec, and while putting in long hours keeping Bend’s parks beautiful, a coworker of mine, a Crook County native, spun me tales of gold in the hills near Prineville Reservoir. The stories were entertaining, and I filed them away, like pirate’s treasure maps, for later consideration. Scan the internet for “Central Oregon buried treasure” and Google returns 41,000 results. There’s gold in them there hills. I mean, even the internet says so, so it must be true.

Skeleton Rock A cursory review of the internet reveals about a half dozen different takes on who buried what, where, and why. But most of them go a little like this: In 1870, somewhere southeast of Prineville, two men robbed a stage coach and made off with 50 grand in cash and gold.

They intended to head west to Portland, but were pursued by authorities and got hung up by the raging Crooked River. Following the banks of the river, they looked for a place to hide the stash and noticed the distinctive Skeleton Rock formation. Unfortunately, one man was shot and killed and the other caught by authorities before they were able to return and collect their loot. To this day, the exact location is known only to the stony hillside of Prineville Reservoir.

Swan Lake This legend takes place in what was once the pioneer settlement of Swan Lake, located somewhere around 10 miles east of Klamath Falls. The sole internet corroboration for this source comes from a website titled losttreasure.com, so you know it’s definitely true. Legend has it that the advent of a post office in Swan Lake brought with it moneyed, but lonesome, stage coach travel between Klamath Falls and Lakeview. It is said that one particular Swan Lake resident made a pretty penny knocking off stage coaches on the regular, and kept his proceeds buried in the potato patch behind the post office. Find the remains of the post office and you’ll find the treasure.

Nfinity Champions League 2 Here it is: The moment we’ve all been waiting for. Every single day of your life has been building to this. While the birth of your children was nice and all, the Nfinity Cheerleading Championships shall make that first beautiful wail pale in comparison. This year the blood, sweat, and cheers move from Georgia to sunny Los Angeles as “22 league members return to the big screen allowing eight spots for Level 5 teams to ‘Play-In’ to the league.” I don’t know what a word of that means, but holy heck does it sound exciting. With teams like the Lady Bullets, the Shooting Stars, and Lady Lightning, expect this competition to blow your face off of your head and into the gutter with all the other faces.

Beyond the World of Interstellar Just in case last year’s sci-fi Interstellar simultaneously made you feel incredibly smart and completely lost, here is a behind-the-scenes look at one of last year’s most hotly debated films.

Some people found it a thought provoking look at our future if we continue to treat the Earth the way that we do (i.e. poorly), and others thought it was overly sentimental and nonsensical fluff. Either way, people were talking about it. This director’s cut of the film features never-before-seen footage and interviews, a chat with physicist Kip Thorne, and a musical performance by composer Hans Zimmer. The new footage will be cut into the film, which will be shown in its entirety, followed by the interviews and bonus features. Three hour and ten minute running time.

CHAPPIE While Chappie definitely looks like Short Circuit for the 21st century, because South African director Neill Blomkamp’s name is on it, we’re also likely to get some social commentary spritzed throughout bursts of ultra-violence. A police droid is stolen by revolutionaries (played in part by the members of Die Antwoord) and reprogramed to feel human emotion. Naturally, the government fears and hates Chappie, and sets about to destroy the robot and everything it stands for. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX CINDERELLA A live-action retelling of the Disney classic directed by Shakespearean master Kenneth Branagh. Disney will be able to print money pretty soon once the next Star Wars movie comes out, so this version of Cinderella must exist just to remind people about the cartoon. Either way, this seems pointless and get the hell off my lawn.

THE DIVERGENT SERIES: INSURGENT Even if you try to give Divergent (and its sequels) the benefit of the doubt that they aren’t just Hunger Games rip-offs, by the time you reach the end of the first book your optimism will be shredded.

While Shailene Woodley is a fine actress, the Teen Post-Apocalyptic genre hits the wall pretty hard here, and flails every which way with its pat ideas about freedom, individuality, and painfully generic love. In this installment the factions start going to war and Kate Winslet cashes extra paychecks. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Pine Theater, Redmond Theatre, Sisters Movie House

DO YOU BELIEVE? From the makers of God’s Not Dead and starring Samwise Gamgee, Jefferson from Married With Children, The Boz, and some asshole named Schwayze, comes the next level of christian entertainment. A pastor’s faith is tested when he watches a street preacher explode with faith he cannot match. This film’s hermetically sealed message should be easily consumed by the choir to which it is preaching. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

FOCUS Will Smith and Margot Robbie as con artists getting ready to take down some marks sounds pretty delightful. Even though Smith’s movie star power has somewhat dimmed over the last few years, people forget that when he’s given a strong role, he tends to knock it out of the park. Not saying that this movie has that going for it, but Margot Robbie is damned delightful also, and if she and Will Smith had a baby, it would be too beautiful to look at. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX FURIOUS 7 While I wouldn’t stand up for the first four films in this franchise, Fast Five and Fast and Furious Six are both smorgasbords of explosions and jaw-dropping stunts, worthy of being mentioned alongside the best action films of the last 15 years. Furious 7 pits Paul Walker (in his final screen role), Vin Diesel, Mr. The Rock, and family against a pissed off Jason Statham. Expect cars flying through the air, Mr. The Rock with a minigun and Statham kicking our heroes in their faces.

GET HARD Will Ferrell is a white collar criminal headed to San Quentin, and Kevin Hart is the guy he hires to train him how to be tough for prison.

Since Hart has never been to prison and Ferrell only hires him because he’s black, I’m assuming mildly racist hijinks will ensue. With some of the writers behind the brilliant Key and Peele scripting, this could be a return to form for Ferrell and the vehicle Hart needs to show how funny he can be when not improvising.

THE GUNMAN Sean Penn, Idris Elba, Javier Bardem, and Ray Winstone in an action movie by the director of Taken sounds like a delight. Penn plays a sniper who kills a minister of the mines in the Congo. When he returns years later, he becomes the target of a hit squad and must use his very special set of skills. Expect brainless action with lots of slow motion in the rain and you should be well prepared for this one. Old Mill Stadium 16

HOME Home is the new film from DreamWorks Animation, home to How to Train Your Dragon, Kung-Fu Panda, and Shrek One through Fifty. This one tells the story of an alien (voiced by The Best

Amigo Steve Martin) whose race is hiding from their mortal enemy on Earth, which they decide to invade. Obviously, wacky hi-jinks ensure because Jim Parsons is also part of the voice cast and that man has two modes: wacky and fauxnerdy. If they exterminate the human race by accident, then this should be a children’s classic.

IT FOLLOWS Critically acclaimed and scary as hell, It Follows creates a new urban legend for the ages. After having sex with a near stranger, a teenage girl starts feeling like she’s always being followed by some dark and shadowy force. Even without the subtext and thematic weight, the film is still creepy and the finest horror film of the last few years. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX JUPITER ASCENDING From the creators of The Matrix Trilogy and the criminally underrated masterpiece Cloud Atlas. Jupiter Ascending is either poised to be this year’s sleeper sci-fi hit or a flop the size of Johnny Depp’s Mortdecai mustache.

Mila Kunis plays Jupiter Jones, an unlucky Earth janitor who is actually space royalty and must be protected by Channing Tatum’s half albino, half wolf warrior Caine Wise. If this film is half as good as The Fifth Element, it will be much better than most sci-fi action releases of the last few years. St.Francis Theater KINGSMAN: THE SECRET SERVICE The new film from the madcap bastard behind Layer Cake, Stardust and X-Men: First Class, Matthew Vaughn.

Kingsman has Colin Firth using a bulletproof umbrella and beating a bunch of ass while never breaking a sweat. It also has Samuel L. Jackson dressing like Jay-Z, talking with a lisp, and hellbent on world domination. I mean, sure, this could be one of the worst movies ever made, but it won’t be. It will be gloriously, batshit insane.

MR. TURNER Mr. Turner tells the story of J.M.W. Turner, the controversial and revolutionary painter.

With some of the finest cinematography and costume design of the year, Mr. Turner will please historical drama fans as well as those with an artist’s eye.

Tin Pan Theater

RUN ALL NIGHT Liam Neeson plays The Gravedigger, an aging mob hitman who has to go to war with his old boss/best friend in order to protect his son and family. Since the film boils down to Liam Neeson vs. Ed Harris, it seems guaranteed to entertain with those two badasses squaring off against each other. Hopefully this will be more in line with The Grey as opposed to Taken 3, because that movie was steamed garbage. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

STILL ALICE Julianne Moore won an Oscar for her portrayal of Alice Howland, a linguistics professor who starts forgetting words due to early-onset Alzheimers.

Tin Pan Theater WILD Filmed around Central Oregon and along the Pacific Crest Trail, Wild tells the story of Cheryl Strayed and her path to self-discovery across a thousand-mile hike. One of the most hyped films of the year, Wild is a very powerful examination of loneliness, isolation, and the power of the human spirit. Also, Central Oregon is pretty and fun to look at on the big screen.

Easter Charade

Vajrayana Buddhism in the Nyingma Tradition

BY WM.™ STEVEN HUMPHREY

As you know, this coming Sunday is Easter—which is when Christians bellyache about how we non-Christians “stole” the holiday and replaced “religion” with “bunnies and hard boiled eggs.” Well, don’t get it twisted—because Christians STOLE IT FIRST. It was Christians who yoinked the name “Easter” from the pagan celebration of spring—but, whatever. Sounded like a boring party, anyway. HOWEVER! The least Christians could’ve done was make Easter super awesome, instead of super depressing! (For more information on “the fetishation of Christ’s crucifixion,” see the last 2000 years of Christian history, or consult your local library.)

So HELL YEAH we’re going to add bunnies and hard-boiled eggs! Sundays are terrible enough without the extra guilt trip they’re laying on us! (Besides, if your club doesn’t serve candy—and later in the day, egg salad—we don’t want to join.)

That brings me to the subject of television. Networks are a lot like Christians— they pretend to be pious on Easter and Christmas, but the other 363 days of the year they’re gettin’ CRUNK, y’all. For example, this Easter the networks are hiding their immorality underneath their mattress (along with their porn mags and cigarettes) and pretending to be fine, upstanding Christian with the following shows: • 8 Minutes (A&E, Thurs., April 2, 10 pm).

When I first read the title, I was like, “YAY! A new bull-riding show!” But then I was like, “Wait. People don’t ride bulls for 8 minutes.” As it turns out, “8 Minutes” follows “cop-turned-pastor” (UGH!!) Kevin Brown, who meets sex workers in hotel rooms— purportedly to have, you know, “sex”—but then forces them to listen to an eight-minute long lecture on why they shouldn’t be prostitutes! (And I thought I was kinky!)

Obviously this guy is a SUPER…CREEP,

• A.D. (NBC, Sun., April 5, 9 pm). Producer Mark Burnett—best known for cursing the world with “Survivor,” “The Apprentice,” and “Shark Tank”—is the devil behind this biblically based miniseries, which follows the birth of Christianity immediately following the death of Jesus Christ. Like it’s prequel (History Channel’s “The Bible”), Burnett hopes to rake in more cash from gullible believers who currently have very little in the way of entertainment—if you don’t count those hilariously bad Kirk Cameron movies. But don’t worry, Christians! Since the series will also depict Jesus’ magical resurrection (“Who’s got two thumbs and just climbed out of a grave?

THIS GUY!”), historical accuracy won’t get in the way of a good time. BOOOOO HISTORICAL ACCURACY!!

• The Ten Commandments (ABC, Sun., April 5, 7 pm). And of course, what would Easter be without a showing of Cecil B. DeMille’s 1956 classic, The Ten Commandments? This flicks stars Charlton Heston as the Easter Bunny, who leads his people on a 40-year egg hunt across the desert to the “Promised Land”—home of the bottomless bowl of candy and egg salad. (SIGH. I love Easter.)

ARIES (March 21-April 19):“Choconiverous” is an English slang word that’s defined as having the tendency, when eating a chocolate Easter Bunny, to bite the head off first. I recommend that you adopt this direct approach in everything you do in the coming weeks. Don’t get bogged down with preliminaries. Don’t get sidetracked by minor details, trivial distractions, or peripheral concerns. It’s your duty to swoop straight into the center of the action. Be clear about what you want and unapologetic about getting it.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): The American

snack cake known as a Twinkie contains 68 percent air. Among its 37 other mostly worthless ingredients are sugar, water, cornstarch, the emulsifier polysorbate 60, the filler sodium stearoyl lactylate, and food coloring. You can’t get a lot of nutritious value by eating it. Now let’s consider the fruit known as the watermelon. It’s 91 percent water and six percent sugar.

And yet it also contains a good amount of Vitamin C, lycopene, and antioxidants, all of which are healthy for you. So if you are going to eat a whole lot of nothing, watermelon is a far better nothing than a Twinkie. Let that serve as an apt metaphor for you in the coming week.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): You may be as

close as you have ever gotten to finding the longlost Holy Grail—or Captain Kidd’s pirate treasure, for that matter, or Marie Antoinette’s jewels, or Tinkerbell’s magical fairy dust, or the smoking-gun evidence that Shakespeare’s plays were written by Francis Bacon. At the very least, I suspect you are ever-so-near to your personal equivalent of those precious goods. Is there anything you can do to increase your chances of actually getting it? Here’s one tip: Visualize in detail how acquiring the prize would inspire you to become even more generous and magnanimous than you already are.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): People are paying attention to you in new ways. That’s what you wanted, right? You’ve been emanating subliminal signals that convey messages like “Gaze into my eternal eyes” and “Bask in the cozy glow of my crafty empathy.” So now what? Here’s one possibility: Go to the next level. Show the even-more-interesting beauty that you’re hiding below the surface. You may not think you’re ready to offer the gifts you have been “saving for later.” But you always think that. I dare you to reveal more of your deep secret power.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): According to the Biblical stories, Peter was Christ’s closest disciple, but acted like a traitor when trouble came.

After Christ was arrested, in the hours before the trial, Peter denied knowing his cherished teacher three different times. His fear trumped his love, leading him to violate his sacred commitment. Is there anything remotely comparable to that scenario developing in your own sphere, Virgo? If you recognize any tendencies in yourself to shrink from your devotion or violate your highest principles, I urge you to root them out. Be brave. Stay strong and true in your duty to a person or place or cause that you love.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Marketing experts

say consumers need persistent prodding before they will open their minds to possibilities that are outside their entrenched habits. The aver-

age person has to be exposed to a new product at least eight times before it fully registers on his or her awareness. Remember this rule of thumb as you seek attention and support for your brainstorms. Make use of the art of repetition.

Not just any old boring, tedious kind of repetition, though. You’ve got to be as sincere and fresh about presenting your goodies the eighth time as you were the first.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): In Cole Porter’s song “I Get a Kick Out of You,” he testifies that he gets no kick from champagne. In fact, “Mere alcohol doesn’t thrill me at all,” he sings. The same is true about cocaine. “I’m sure that if I took even one sniff that would bore me terrifically, too,” Porter declares. With this as your nudge, Scorpio, and in accordance with the astrological omens, I encourage you to identify the titillations that no longer provide you with the pleasurable jolt they once did. Acknowledge the joys that have grown stale and the adventures whose rewards have waned. It’s time for you to go in search of a new array of provocative fun and games.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): The English writer William Wordsworth (1770-1830) wrote hundreds of poems. Among his most famous was “I Wandered Lonely as a Cloud,” which is also known as “Daffodils.” The poem sprung from him after a walk he took with his sister around Lake Ullswater in the English Lake District.

There they were delighted to find a long, thick belt of daffodils growing close to the water.

In his poem, Wordsworth praises the “ten thousand” flowers that were “Continuous as the stars that shine / And twinkle on the milky way.” If you are ever going to have your own version of a daffodil explosion that inspires a burst of creativity, Sagittarius, it will come in the coming weeks.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Your sub-

conscious desires and your conscious desires seem to be at odds. What you say you want is not in precise alignment with what your deep self wants. That’s why I’m worried that “Don’t!

Stop!” might be close to morphing into “Don’t stop!”—or vice versa. It’s all pretty confusing.

Who’s in charge here? Your false self or your true self? Your wounded, conditioned, habit-bound personality or your wise, eternal, ever-growing soul? I’d say it’s a good time to retreat into your sanctuary and get back in touch with your primal purpose.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Sometimes you’re cool, but other times you’re hot. You veer from acting aloof and distracted to being friendly and attentive. You careen from bouts of laziness to bursts of disciplined efficiency. It seems that you’re always either building bridges or burning them, and on occasion you are building and burning them at the same time.

In short, Aquarius, you are a master of vacillation and a slippery lover of the in-between.

When you’re not completely off-target and out of touch, you’ve got a knack for wild-guessing the future and seeing through the false appearances that everyone else regards as the gospel truth. I, for one, am thoroughly entertained!

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): How can you ripen the initiatives you have set in motion in recent weeks? Of the good new trends you have launched, which can you now install as permanent enhancements in your daily rhythm? Is there anything you might do to cash in on the quantum leaps that have occurred, maybe even figure out a way to make money from them? It’s time for you to shift from being lyrically dreamy to fiercely practical. You’re ready to convert lucky breaks into enduring opportunities.

NEWS QUIRKS CURSES, FOILED AGAIN

A burglar used the homeowner’s devices to log on to porn, YouTube and his Facebook account, but authorities in Monroe County, FL, quickly identified him because he forgot to log off Facebook.

Sheriff’s official Becky Herrin said the 16-yearold suspect also ate a Pop Tart and drank a soda.

(Miami Herald) Burglary suspect Christopher Wallace, 24, eluded sheriff’s deputies in Somerset County, Maine, for several weeks but then unwittingly alerted them to his whereabouts by revealing on Snapchat that he had just returned home. A second post followed that deputies were at his home and coming inside, but he was hiding in a cabinet. Social media-monitoring deputies then headed for the cabinet and found “a pair of feet,” the sheriff’s department’s Facebook page reported. “The feet just so happened to be attached to a person, and that person was Christopher Wallace.” (Kennebec Morning Sentinel)

THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE

Shortly after Will Swenson was named to receive the Medal of Honor for heroism in Afghanistan, the Army placed the outspoken critic of Army leadership under surveillance because his name appeared, along with others, in a one-paragraph book review on Amazon.com. Swenson, whom the book itself didn’t mention, said agents questioned him, pawed through his trash and rattled his girlfriend. Then-Secretary of the Army John McHugh agreed the Amazon review triggered the surveillance, which, he suggested, “was really about his award, his criticism of the Army and the hope that agents would find something to shut him up.” (The Daily Beast)

DOUBLE TROUBLE

Arthur Mondella, 57, spent five hours with investigators answering complaints that his New York City factory, which makes Maraschino cherries, was dumping syrup and “cherry-related waste” in the waters around the warehouse. When agents noticed a flimsy shelving system attached to an office wall and asked Mondella about it, they said he excused himself, went into the bathroom and shot himself in the head. After the shooting, agents were surprised to uncover “a huge marijuana-growing operation” underneath the warehouse, including 80 pounds of pot, hundreds of thousands of dollars in cash and several high-end vehicles. (New York Daily News)

PAPER TIGER

The developer of Tiger Woods’s new restaurant in Jupiter, FL, said it couldn’t be named after the golfer because Tiger Woods doesn’t own commercial rights to his name. Nike does. (CNN)

WHEN GUNS ARE OUTLAWED

Authorities accused Travis Lanning, 34, of beating a woman in her 50s with a weapon described as “a club with a spiked ball on the end”—known in medieval times as a mace. The Sacramento County Sheriff’s Department reported the woman wasn’t robbed but said her attacker threatened to kill her. (The Sacramento Bee)

MADE IN THE SHADE

A London-based architectural firm announced it has developed a skyscraper that doesn’t cast a shadow. NBBJ explained the design involves a pair of precisely aligned towers with curved and angled facades that reflect sunlight to the street below and onto each other. “The ‘No-Shadow Tower’ redirects sunlight to visibly reduce shadows at the base of the towers by 60 percent over typical buildings,” a company official said. (Britain’s The Telegraph)

SCHOOL DAZE

The University of Iowa allowed “a very small number of students” who said they were offended by a 7-foot-tall statue of a Ku Klux Klan-like robed figure to be exempted from class assignments because it affected their “state of mind.”

(Cedar Rapids’s The Gazette)

Jeff Landfield, 30, had his name withdrawn as an appointee to the board that oversees judicial ethics after Alaska Gov. Bill Walker discovered “disrespectful images” on Facebook showing Landfield wearing a Speedo and bathing with women. One showed his hands on a woman’s breast. Landfield said the images are “not something I hide. I think everybody knows that about me. I’m kind of an open book.” (Anchorage Daily News)

NOUS SOMMES CHARLIE HEBDO

Surviving staffers of the French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo are feuding over how to split the surge in revenue since the deadly shootings at its Paris office. Sales rose from 30,000 copies a week to hundreds of thousands, and revenue jumped to $32 million. Eleven members of the staff asked lawyers to turn the magazine into a cooperative so everyone can share the profits.

Others oppose the move, saying it’s an attempt to get their hands on the 40 percent of shares owned by murdered editor Stephane Charbonnier that now belong to his parents. (New York Daily News)

After a group called the Satanic Temple asked the Orange County (FL) School Board for permission to distribute a Satanic coloring book to students, the board voted to ban not only Satanic materials, but also outside Bibles.

SLIGHTEST PROVOCATION

UNHAPPY REUNION

Police who responded to reports of a disturbance involving 20 to 30 teenagers in Burbank, IL., found that one 17-year-old girl had been stabbed several times in the back. Investigator Mike Dudio said the victim had gone to the “house of her adversary,” another 17-year-old girl, to confront her about “issues” the two were having on Twitter. (Chicago Tribune)

Chinese officials are cracking down on square dancing, which is popular with elderly women, known as “dancing grannies,” who gather in public squares in large groups to perform. Concerned that the “over-enthusiasm of participants has dealt a harmful blow, with disputes over noise and venues,” Liu Guoyong, the chief of the government’s General Administration of Sports Mass Fitness Department, said a panel will introduce 12 authorized routines, and announce when they are permissible and the volume of the music.

“The unified drills will help keep the dancing on the right track where they can be performed in a socially responsible way,” said fitness trainer Wang Guangcheng, a member of the panel. (BBC News)

Eldridge Dukes, 58, told police in Baton Rouge, La., that he shot his 18-year-old son in the buttocks after the two argued because they were out of orange juice. (Baton Rouge’s The Advocate)

Art and Wine Bop

While former police officer Domingo Villa Arellano, 40, was serving time in a Mexican maximum-security prison for killing his wife in a jealous rage, his long-time girlfriend Ericka Isela Velazquez Cocula, 36, visited with their two children and stepdaughter. When the children complained that their mother was mistreating them, Arellano fatally stabbed Cocula and the three children. He turned the makeshift weapon on himself, but prison guards intervened.

I saw your recent column about a hiking date, and I was wondering whether I’d seem cheap if I asked a woman on a hike for the first date. A buddy says it’d seem rude to a woman to not be wined and dined, and I’d come off as chintzy or poor. I’m neither, but hiking’s fun, and I like the idea of not spending big on first dates (most of which are busts anyway).

—Mountain Man

On a first date, a woman should be getting to know you, not getting to know how much you can put on your MasterCard before the waiter comes over with a big pair of scissors. Sure, some women will find you cheap for suggesting a hike—mainly those who resent having to trudge up hills to procure a funding source with a penis. However, even women who are into exercising aren’t always into doing it where they may get close enough to a bear to see that it could use one of those little nose hair trimmers. For these women, you might offer “activity date” alternatives, like bowling or attending a street fair or a gallery opening. These might also work better for first dates with any women you barely know—alluring as it is to hear, “Hi, I’m a total stranger, and I’d like to take you off to a dark, wooded area where there’s no cellphone reception.” (Your shallow grave or mine?)

CANNABIS CORNER

SMOKE SIGNALS Moving an informal commerce into the rigid bureaucracy of a state authorized activity requires a lot of attorneys and elected officials sweating the small details. With questions about policing, flow of tax dollars, and overall what-the-hay questions, the issue about how to create a legalized system of marijuana has pulled in a gaggle of state senators who meet every Monday and Wednesday at 5 pm in Salem. Since January, the aptly and blandly named Joint Committee on Implementing Measure 91, has been tinkering with the language in various laws, and trying to decide how to stretch and tailor the state’s law to accommodate a substance that is still illegal—and will be until July 1.

But the real heavy-lifting in the effort to legalize marijuana is being done by the Oregon Liquor Control Commission, the state agency which currently regulates alcohol sales—and is expanding its scope to manage the newest drug-of-choice.

But last Thursday, that controversial agency took a major hit when (the appropriately named) Tom Burns, the director for OLCC’s marijuana programs, was fired. The reasons for his dismal remain hazy (sorry, couldn’t resist), but his firing leaves the agency somewhat rudderless just three months before the state is expected to have its ducks in a row.

“I don’t know how we’re going to get through this without him,” said Sen. Ginny Burdick, D-Portland, co-chair of the Joint Legislative Committee, in a press statement.

“He’s the most knowledgeable person on marijuana policy in the state.”

Burns had overseen the rollout of Oregon’s medical marijuana program. One of the primary questions about legalizing recreational marijuana is how the medical marijuana industry will fit into the new recreational allowances. Will it be part of? Alongside?

Separate but equal?

Burns was uniquely positioned to answer those questions. Now he’s gone!
