This week, we’re rolling out part three of our series on water in the high desert. Part one covered wells drying up. Part two covered water for farming and irrigation. Now, part three takes a look at residential and commercial water use in Bend and Redmond—though this part of the story is far from over. We are in the midst of a lawsuit over access to public records to tell the complete story. We, as journalists, believe private companies that act in the same capacity as public utilities have an obligation to fulfill public records requests, which you can learn more about in this week’s feature. When that legal battle is resolved, we hope to be able to bring you even more on that story.

Meanwhile, there’s so much more great stuff to read about in this week’s issue, from info on upcoming musical events, bike races and even a three-part performance by a local comedian. All that and more in this week’s issue! Enjoy.

e’ve all heard the stats here in our own community: Bend is one of the most popular places for remote workers to come and live and reap the benefits of the lifestyle while also, often, earning the higher salaries offered in places like the Bay Area of San Francisco. While that’s meant an attractive lifestyle for those who are able to do it, Bend’s “Zoomtown” status has also had its drawbacks—namely, the rise in home values and the pricing-out of locals who continue to earn local salaries.

Now, though, some recent reporting has revealed another drawback of remote work, and makes us wonder where the true cost of remote work is heading. Last week, Willamette Week reported about the number of employees working for the State of Oregon who are now living in other parts of the country while retaining their Oregon jobs and Oregon salaries, all while not being required to pay Oregon income taxes. That’s somewhat concerning— but there’s more. Not only does the state allow workers to live anywhere, but they’re also getting the state to foot the bill when they travel back to Oregon for work.

The Chief Financial Officer for the Oregon Lottery now lives in Texas, while the Chief Human Resources Officer for the Oregon Lottery now lives in Florida. The costs of travel back to Oregon, since their moves in 2021, have cost the state around $2,000 each thus far, according to Willamette Week. Around 500 state employees in total are now taking advantage of a 2021 state policy that allows them to work remotely.

While the obvious drawbacks of a remote worker culture include heightened home values and density in “attractive” areas and decline in less-attractive areas, it does make sense, in a

work culture where workers are hard to find, for the state to open up its worker pool through remote work. State agencies have said this policy allows them to remain competitive in the workforce.

Still, it is unfair for these workers who opt not to live in a state where they work to be compensated for this choice, and for taxpayers in the state (where those remote workers are now avoiding the income taxes that keep the government running) to foot the bill. While some employers do offer things like bus passes to employees, it is uncommon to get your employer to pay for your local commute, let alone your commute across the country all because you decide to live in a red state.

This needs to change.

When state lawmaker, Sen. Tim Knopp (R-Bend), heard about this, he vowed to introduce legislation that would bar the state from compensating these employees for their travel. This is the right thing to do, and the least of the moves the state should make to correct this. Some are also calling for a policy that requires employees who work for the state to actually live in the state.

We are in the midst of a societal shift in which people are more able than ever to live where they want to live while also having more flexibility in their work sites. Some of those changes are already resulting in effects such as income inequality and lack of housing for lower-income people, as we are seeing here in Central Oregon. This “self-sorting” is bound to have political and social effects we have not even been able to conceive of yet.

In the case of employee travel, however, Oregon should act fast to set policies that are fair and equitable and that don’t offer special favors for those who decide not to live here.

O PET OWNERS BEWARE

HAYDEN HOMES CONCERT SEASON 2022 To the Concert Organizers: Your season is winding down. I’m betting you are tallying revenue, concessions, attendance, chair rentals and more. I bet you think it’s been a rousing success on every front. I bet you are proud you “take care of the neighborhood” by shutting down at 10:00pm.

Here’s what you also (should) know— this, from a longtime Bendite who visits a friend half-a-mile from you: The best time to sit on a deck, relax in quiet with a drink and/or dinner, enjoy a leisure evening outside is BEFORE 10:00pm.

Yet, it is impossible to escape the music (especially the bass). This outside quiet has not been available most weekends and several times per week.

All. Summer. Long. You’ve taken away the option.

Next year, how about giving the

neighborhood half of those evenings back? Have your season, make your money, but give the theater’s surrounding residents some weekends and other evenings to enjoy the quiet we used to have. Share the nights! Summers here are brief—your 2022 Concert Season seemed quite greedy of our precious quiet evenings.

STUPIDITY Stupidity, have we finally reached the height and outer limits of human stupidity, I ask you?

Stupid is, as stupid does. Italian economic philosopher Carlo Cippola did recommend you watch the YouTube post, “The Five Laws of Stupidity,” which gives you a reference point for my written rant. Does activity involving fossil fuels really contribute to global warming or do the crazy rantings of our Worldwide Scientific Community have any validity at all? It seems kind

of stupid to deny what is becoming increasingly so obvious.

The 55 MPH speed limit was enacted by President Richard Nixon on January 2, 1974, was that smart or stupid?

Driving at 80 mph reduces fuel economy by 28%. Sixty percent of the fuel burned is used to overcome the poor aerodynamics on those monstrous pickups.

I have asked the poor souls that pump fuel if people who drive large vehicles seem upset about fuel prices, and I got a resounding “yes.” Did the people who bought and drive these rigs really believe fuel prices would go down, not up? It would be nonsense to believe that or maybe even stupid to believe that. Go ahead fact check it, then look around at all of the outsized pickups, SUVs and other less-than-economical forms of transportation and recreational vehicles. Not only do we waste fuel and money with our appetite and need for speed, but human life in the form of traffic fatalities and serious injuries.

Who in their right mind would follow closer than three car lengths at 65+ or even 85+ MPH, by my observation quite a number of people. How about texting at any speed?

So the first of Cippola’s laws states, everyone underestimates the number of stupid people, no offense intended? I think it’s high time we wised up. I know I still do stupid things myself and I am still trying to recover from my level of stupidity, how about you? By the way the biggest waste of fossil fuels is the

world’s war machines and we own the biggest war machine in the world.

Bend Parks and Rec should be congratulated for Alpenglow Park. The finished product sets the benchmark for local parks. Unfortunately, the park has not been cleared of foxtails and cheatgrass. These dangerous weeds are everywhere including inside the dog parks, and barbs cover the walkways. I have personally witnessed the damage these weeds can cause as in the past one of my dogs inhaled a barb and suffered a collapsed lung. Another dog required surgery on his leg to remove a barb that had worked its way up his leg. Recently Bend Parks had a crew of workers at the park for cleanup on two occasions. These weeds were obviously not on their list for removal as they are still present.

Perhaps Bend Parks can have a cleanup day and ask for dog owners to help their crews rid the park of this danger.

Private Company, Public Utility WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / AUGUST 25, 2022 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

Avion Water, Oregon’s largest private water provider, is now owned by the region’s oldest natural gas utility company

By Jack Harvel Courtesy of Food and Water Watch

L

ast December Northwest Natural Water Company, a subsidiary of the state’s oldest gas company, Northwest Natural, acquired an ownership stake in Avion Water, the state’s largest private public utility.

NW Natural delivers gas to over 600,000 residential customers in Oregon, which is about 80% of all natural gas deliveries in the state.

NW Natural got into the water utility business on December 21, 2017, when it acquired Salmon Valley based out of Welches, Oregon, and Falls Water in Idaho Falls, Idaho. The two privately owned public utilities had about 5,600 combined customers, and have since expanded across the Pacific Northwest, Arizona and Texas.

“The water utility sector is an excellent strategic fit for our company,” stated David H. Anderson, president and chief executive officer of NW Natural in a press release after the acquisition.

NW Natural said the aspects of business it excels at, such as managing distribution infrastructure, customer service, working in a highly regulated market and environmental stewardship, are applicable to the water utility sector it entered. Anderson also noted that the 2017 purchase is part of a long-term plan to diversify its services. NW Natural believed Oregon’s smaller water utilities could benefit from the resources it could bring as a large company. “The water sector is extremely fragmented, and many water systems suffer from lack of scale and a limited ability to invest in infrastructure. We knew we could bring that investment capacity, as well,” said David Roy, spokesperson for NW Natural. “We can provide operational capacity. Some small utilities are operated by one person or a handful of people, and it's difficult for them to have the same level of operational expertise, training on water quality, water efficiency, and safety.”

About 95% of Oregon’s municipal water systems are government run, and Avion Water Systems in Bend is the state’s largest privately owned public utility, with about 15,000 customer connections. Avion is regulated by the Oregon Public Utility Commission, a regulator that sets rates and establishes rules of operations for investor-owned utility companies.

Avion accounts for about half of Oregon’s regulated private water customers, which in total includes about 32,000 customers. When NW Natural purchased Avion in December, it said the sale would support Avion’s growth. Avion is set to provide water to a good portion of new developments in Bend.

“Given rapid population growth in Bend and Central Oregon, there is going to be a need for significant investments in water system infrastructure,” Roy said.

“We have a strategic investment in Avion and we are helping to fund growth-related infrastructure investment so that Avion can meet the needs of its customers in the region.”

It’s not NW Natural’s first purchase in Central Oregon. In 2019 the Public Utility Commission approved its acquisition of Sunriver Water LLC, a company that provides water and wastewater utilities to 9,400 connections. Another private utility company, SouthWest Water Company out of California, also invested in Central Oregon when it purchased Cline Butte Water, the water utility serving Eagle Crest Resort.

Food and Water Watch, a nonprofit advocating for safe food, clean water and climate protection, found privately owned water systems charged 59% more than

publicly-owned systems in a 2016 study. A year before it raised alarm over the lack of transparency in privately-owned water utilities.

“Almost all private water companies did not reply to requests for information about their number of shutoffs. Of the 11 privately owned water utilities surveyed, only 1 (Suez Idaho) responded — representing a 9 percent response rate. In comparison, the response rate among public sector providers was 93 percent,” Food and Water Watch wrote in a study called America’s Secret Water Crisis.

When the Source Weekly requested records of the top residential water users in Central Oregon, Avion sued to keep its largest water users confidential. That was after Deschutes District Attorney John Hummel Courtesy of Food and Water Watch

Privately-owned water utilities charge 59% more than publicly owned ones, according to Food and Water Watch.

ordered Avion to fulfill the request. Both Bend and Redmond’s water departments complied with the records request in a timely manner. The Source Weekly is now represented by the Reporter’s Committee for the Freedom of the Press in regard to Avion’s suit.

Oregon’s Citizens Utility Board, a watchdog group monitoring utility rates in Oregon, told Streetroots it wasn’t too concerned with NW Natural buying up private water utilities.

“If they were buying public utilities, we’d view it differently,” Bob Jenks, Oregon’s CUB executive director, told Streetroots in 2018.

The watchdog butted heads with NW Natural in March over a proposed 12% rate hike for natural gas services, less than a year after the Oregon Public Utility Commission approved a 13% rate increase. The 12% increase would contribute to $11 million in executive and employee bonuses, increase shareholder profits by $1.1 million and fund a 30% increase in NW Natural’s advertising budget, according to Oregon CUB. CUB also voiced concern over NW Natural, Avista and Cascade Natural Gas suing the state to avoid reducing greenhouse gas emissions as outlined in Oregon’s Department of Environmental Quality’s Climate Protection Program — which is designed to reduce emissions by 50% by 2035 and 90% by 2050.

“Gas utilities talk a good game about their commitment to reducing carbon emissions. But they continue to invest millions in expanding their pipelines and increasing their emissions every year,” Jenks said in a press release on March 24. “This suit demonstrates the wide gulf between their rhetoric and their reality.”

NW Natural denies that it acts any less transparently than a public utility, and points to the regulatory oversite it has to adhere to under state laws.

“Both our gas business and NW Natural Water are very transparent as regulated utilities. Regulatory oversight includes the rate-setting process overseen by the Oregon Public Utilities Commission,” Roy said.

“NW Natural as a publicly traded company is also subject to SEC filings and other mechanisms that require transparency.”

Teens Killed in Bend Remembered as “Inseparable” Bend Police arrest Bend man in the deaths of two 18-year-olds

By Nicole Vulcan Courtesy GoFundMe

VOLUME 26 ISSUE 34 / AUGUST 25, 2022 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

A

Bend man is in custody following the deaths of two 18-year-olds. Bend Police arrested 41-year-old Wesley Brady on Aug. 17, after cops say he killed Angela Pastorino and Alfredo Hernandez earlier in the week. Police say the two victims and Brady were all working for a homeowner on Mount Faith Place in Bend. After working in the home Aug. 16, cops say the teens and Brady were drinking together when the two men—Brady and Hernandez—got into a fight that resulted in Brady killing both teens. Police say Brady then left Pastorino and Hernandez in the garage of the home and took off for a property in Christmas Valley. When the homeowner came home on Aug. 17, they found one of the teens in the garage and called the police. During the investigation, cops discovered Brady in the area around the house and arrested him. Brady remains in custody at the Deschutes County Jail and is being held without bail.

Police arrested him on multiple charges, including murder, sodomy, sex abuse, abuse of corpse, tampering with evidence and strangulation. Brady has been accused of arson and animal abuse in recent years and had a history of mental health challenges, according to reporting from The Bulletin.

A GoFundMe set up for the families of the victims described Hernandez and Pastorino, both who attended school in the Bend area, as “inseparable.

They were bright, loving teens with family and friends who adored them.

Angela loved people almost as much as she loved dogs. Alfredo was known as a sweet, soft-spoken young man who was the first to volunteer to help with any task.”

Memorial Planned for Bend Firefighter and Twin Brother Service to take place at Hayden Homes Amphitheater

By Nicole Vulcan

B

end Fire and Rescue will hold a memorial this weekend for a pair of twin brothers who died in a plane crash— one who was a Bend firefighter. Brothers Mark Harro and Daniel Harro were flying together during a backcountry camping trip near Yellow Pine, Idaho, on Aug. 15 when their plane went down. The two brothers both died in the crash. Also in the plane was Daniel’s dog Cinder, who survived the crash. The cause of the crash is still undetermined, according to Bend Fire & Rescue. Daniel, who was an engineer for Bend Fire & Rescue, is survived by his wife, Elisif, and Mark Harro is survived by his wife Kelly, and both brothers are also survived by their parents John and Denise Harro and sister Laura.

“This is a devastating loss for our family,” Bend Fire Chief Todd Riley said in a press release. “Daniel was wellloved and well-respected by everyone who worked with him. We will miss his presence every day.” Daniel Harro worked for the Scappoose Fire Department before beginning work in Bend in 2014 as a firefighter and paramedic.

Mark Harro was an artist, described in a GoFundMe profile as “exceptionally creative, evidenced in his ceramics, drawings, paintings and costumes.”

A joint memorial service will take place Sunday, Aug. 28 at 11am at Hayden Homes Amphitheater in Bend. The memorial includes a full fire service active-duty death ceremony organized by Bend Fire & Rescue, the Oregon Honor Guard and other emergency service agencies. Members of the public are encouraged to show up at least 30 minutes early to be ready for traffic congestion.

GoFundMe accounts have been set up for each of the brothers’ wives to help with expenses. They are available at: gofundme.com/f/daniel-harro and gofundme.com/f/ mark-harro. Funeral services are also planned this week for both Daniel and Mark Harro.

Water at Home

A snapshot of Bend and Redmond’s top water users in 2021

By Hanna Merzbach

A

cross the acres of land surrounding Redmond and Tumalo, residential wells are drying up at alarming rates. Travel north to the Madras region, and farmers are letting their land go fallow amid a shrinking water supply.

But zoom in within city limits in Central Oregon, and residents aren’t facing the same constraints. With the worst megadrought the west has seen in at least 1,200 years, the City of Bend and Redmond are urging residents to conserve water, but doing so is voluntary, and not everyone is reducing their use.

So, the Source Weekly set out to track where our water is going. We know that about 95% of water in the Upper Deschutes River Basin goes to irrigation, and — with inconsistent metering and canal water seeping into the ground — it’s nearly impossible to determine exactly who’s using all that water. Instead, we looked toward the remaining 5%, or municipal use, since it’s something we can track.

Why does it matter?

In the U.S., households use 29 billion gallons of water daily. Most of that water often goes to lawns and other outdoor uses, yet 50% of that water is wasted, in part, due to overwatering.

This comes as signs of climate change and intensifying drought are striking in every corner of the West.

The Colorado River is reaching record lows, threatening the water source for 40 million people. The Great Salt Lake is drying up, leaving ecosystems endangered and creating a bowl of toxic dust around the neighboring city.

Across the West, we’re seeing an increased sense of urgency to conserve water. In Central Oregon, for instance, community members are rallying against luxury resorts like Thornburgh, which was originally permitted to use nearly 700 million gallons of water a year.

(The developer, Kameron DeLashmutt, said the resort is working to make “substantial reductions” to its use, though it’s unclear what these reductions will be.)

Meanwhile, farmers continue to suffer and worry they won’t make it through the season. A lot of this comes down to Oregon’s water law system, which experts across the region have deemed “archaic.” But making institutional change is a slow process. Limiting municipal water use won’t do much for the dire situations farmers face, but it could help build “a culture of conservation” and eventually lead to more structural change, according to Tod Heisler, a longtime Deschutes River advocate.

“We want to start with the people who will accept some of this change and ownership,” Heisler said, “and then start working outward to everybody else.”

“I know there’s a general interest in the public to have a transparent understanding of what’s happening in the water world, and we support that here.”

MICHAEL BUETTNER, BEND UTILITY DIRECTOR

Big Takeaways In 2021, Bend Waters’s top residential customer used 10 times as much water as the city’s average residential customer. The top customer used 1,176,259 gallons of water. That’s enough to fill more than 32 football fields. Meanwhile, the average Bend Water customer used 114,456 gallons — or three football fields.

Most of the City of Bend's largest residential water users live on Awbrey Butte and the west side of town. Eight of the 15 top Bend Water users live on Awbrey Butte. One lives next to Mirror Pond. Another lives in Tetherow. The only top user east of Highway 97 lives near Pine Nursery Park. Google Maps shows that many of these properties have large green lawns. ***It’s important to note that this is an incomplete picture, as Avion serves a lot of the larger properties on the east side of town, which could have made this list.

Bend’s top residential customers use more water than Redmond’s. The City of Bend had five customers using over one million gallons of water in 2021. Redmond only had one. Interestingly, Bend’s top users do pay about twice as much as Redmond’s top users.

According to Michael Buettner, Bend’s utility director, this is likely because Bend’s water system is more complex and costlier to maintain than Redmond’s.

Most of Bend and Redmond’s largest commercial users are schools and hospitals — but breweries, labs and one car wash also made the list.

Schools use water to irrigate lawns and athletic fields, and their usage largely correlates with the size of their green space. For St. Charles, Bend’s largest user at 43 million gallons a year, water is critical for patient care, according to the hospital’s spokesperson. Next up is Deschutes Brewery, which used 34 million gallons, since water is the main ingredient in beer. 10 Barrel and Humm Kombucha also rank in the top commercial users. Manufacturing hubs like Lonza and SiCamore Semi follow. And don’t forget Redmond’s Surf Thru Express Car Wash and Walmart Supercenter, which used 7.5 and 7.3 million gallons of water, respectively. ***The Bend Parks & Recreation District didn’t make this list because it has multiple water providers, and the city only serves water to some of the smaller parks in town. According to Buettner, if looked at in aggregate, the parks would likely be in the city’s top five water users.

River’s Edge Golf Course used nearly twice as much water as St. Charles in Bend. The golf course — located off Mt. Washington Drive — used nearly 82 million gallons, compared to St. Charles’ 43 million.

Even at 82 million, River’s Edge only used about half of the water it’s allowed to divert out of the Deschutes River, according to the Central Oregon Irrigation District, which serves the golf course its water. The region’s golf courses and resorts largely use groundwater through their own water rights, making it difficult to determine how much water they used. River’s Edge is one of the only golf courses required to report its consumption, since it diverts water from the river.

How to reduce your water use: • If you’re a Bend Water customer, sign up for WaterSmart, where you can track your water use and sign up for leak alerts.

• Buy Energy-Star certified appliances, which can save you water and money.

• Use xeriscaping or a water-wise landscaping plan.

• Water outdoor areas in the early morning or evenings to beat daytime evaporation.

• Update your sprinkler system, making sure you’re watering the lawn, not the sidewalk and driveway. Bend Water customers can request a free sprinkler inspection through September.

The Source Weekly requested public records about the largest residential and commercial users in Bend and Redmond. While this picture is still incomplete, it reveals important info about municipal water usage. We aim to shed light on disparate realities in Central Oregon: while some farmers are struggling to make it through the season amid severe drought, some residents are using over 1 million gallons of water a year for lawns.

Source isn’t alone in this kind of lawsuit: after the Oregonian tried to get water use data about the Google data center in The Dalles, the city decided to sue to he Source Weekly started by requesting public keep the records private.

Buettner, the Bend utility director, told the Source.

“We obviously can’t make other people share their data. But we’re curious (about Avion’s data) as well.”

Avion did not respond to requests to comment.

Without information about nearly a fifth of Bend’s population, we deemed it unfair to publish the names and exact addresses of top users, as we’d originally planned. (We were also unable to determine to what extent leaks factored into water use.) Our approach to this story was similar to what other newspapers, including Willamette Week in Portland, have done when they gain public records and then publish the names and addresses of the top water users in their areas. If we obtain records from Avion, we plan to publish names and addresses of the top users.

Instead, we offer readers a map of where some of the largest water users live, how much water they used in 2021 and how much they spent. We put this side-by-side with commercial data, in order to start to fill in that water use picture. We also gained some information about golf courses like River’s Edge from irrigation districts. This story is by no means comprehensive and doesn’t touch on specific developments, resorts and cities like Sisters and Prineville, but it’s a start at offering a snapshot of where our water is going.

Nyx Division is a Portland Gem

S

17

By Isaac Biehl Courtesy of Nyx Division

fter joining forces in Portland during the pandemic, post-punk four-piece Nyx Division released its first EP this past March. Draped in reverb, driving tempos and haunting vocals over six songs, the “Dark Star EP” is an incredible sampler that highlights Nyx Division’s playfulness and power as rising champions of goth and glam rock in Portland.

“The reception has been overwhelmingly positive, which has been really encouraging given everything that musicians went through during the lockdown,” says vocalist Domîno Monët. “The scene in Portland has been really excited to have live performances to go to again, so I think creating and playing here has been a really excellent, reciprocal phenomenon as of late.”

Nyx Division also features the talents of Cole Tucker (guitar), Alex Rivas (bass) and Mason Wilky (drums). The band is heading to Redmond this Saturday night for a show at the High Desert Music Hall.

Learn more about them in our Q&A with Monët below.

of the things that’s been the most rewarding thus far has been being able to do some fundraising through live performances. Our first show we ever played was a benefit for the preservation of Indigenous languages in the Pacific Northwest. That was one hell of a way to come back to the stage. We hope to continue doing things along those lines when we’re able to.

SW: Can we expect more Nyx Division music or videos this year?

DM: Absolutely! If not in 2022, then most certainly in early 2023. We’re currently writing a new album and are really excited to be able to share those tracks soon.

As of now, we’re playing tracks that will appear on the new album during live shows only. So if you want a taste of what’s to come, make sure to catch us live!

Find CDs for the “Dark Star EP” through Nyx Division’s Bandcamp.

Source Weekly: You all have worked in other bands and projects before separately. What was the driving force for Nyx Division to come together and how did that happen?

Domîno Monët: Interestingly enough, it was the pandemic that ended up bringing us together. Collectively, we were living in Oregon, Texas and California pre-pandemic. We all ended up in Portland once the lockdown was officially in motion. From there, the band came together pretty organically. We had all known each other in some capacity prior to the band forming, whether that be through playing shows together pre-pandemic or listening to each other’s other music projects, [we] had a pre-existing respect for one another as musicians. We were lucky enough to get along great right off the bat.

DM: When Alex, the bassist, originally reached out to me to do vocals, he half-jokingly described the band as sounding like “The Twisted Sisters of Mercy,” meaning that it was like a mix between Twisted Sister and Sisters of Mercy. For those that are familiar with those bands, I’d say that mash-up example still remains pretty solid. For those that prefer a more adjective-based approach, I would say that we’re doing our best to harness the energy and catchy pop sensibility of classic rock and ‘80s hair metal without sacrificing the reverb and chorus heavy influence of ‘80s new wave and goth music.

SW: For people who haven’t heard Nyx Division before, how would you describe your sound?

DM: It’s hard to choose just one song or experience.

They’re all distinct and valued in their own right. One

SW: Lasty, has Nyx Division played in Central Oregon yet?

DM: We are so excited to play! This’ll be our first time ever playing Central Oregon. Speaking solely for myself, I’ve got family here so it’s always nice to have them at the shows, especially my mom. She’s a very talented singer and piano player (Adagio Lessons in Redmond). Her musical influence on me absolutely shines through in the way I approach music. The whole band loves traveling, going to new places, and having new experiences so everything about coming to Redmond this Saturday is exciting for us.

SW: Is there a specific song or experience you’re most proud of looking back while the band was putting together the “Dark Star EP?”

Open Space Event Studios Jake The Human: Agro Hippies Musical Improv Agro hippies is what happens when you take the musical brilliance of Steven Whitney and the deranged mind of Jake Woodmansee and make improv music out of the pair. Jake has no idea what music Steven will be playing, and the audience gets to choose the topics. If Jake can’t make a song to the subjects and music he is hearing for the first time then he has to buy you a drink. Sometimes he is known to be a nice guy and just buy you a drink for getting creative with your subjects.

Danny Hoffman from Central Oregon Comedy Scene will open. Tylor Jones will perform a new set just as hilarious with a twist. Dustin Riley will be MC with fresh tricks in his bags of wonder.

Jake Woodmansee is primed and pimped to slay audiences this weekend.

SATURDAY, October 1st 11am-10pm

SUNDAY, October 2nd 11am-5pm

L

ocal comedian Jake Woodmansee is primed to perform three days in a row with comedy sets at Open Space Event Studios this weekend. Woodmansee has performed comedy for over 20 years, and will return to a familiar stage at Open Space, where he did theater performances there when it was still Second Street Theater. Each night has a different theme and the sets will all be filmed for the comedian’s upcoming special. Be prepared to potentially see yourself on the screen in the future, especially if attending all three nights!

Night 1: Story Time Everyone has that friend who can capture a dinner party’s attention with their stories and keep the entertainment going all night. Jake is that human, and he will captivate the live audience with this set of completely true stories.

Ready for

Night 2: Agro Hippies Musical Improv This isn’t a regular improv show. Agro Hippies takes the musical talents of Steven Whitney and the quick wit built through decades of stage experience from Woodmansee to deliver a show that can only be experienced live for its true essence. The audience will toss out suggestions and Woodmansee must create a performance from these, paired with music he hasn’t heard before. If he’s unable to make up an act he owes the suggester a drink.

Celebrate the Autumn season with crafts, art, music, and more!

Sweater Weather?

Presented By:

Night 3: A Knight of Comedy All right, no more shenanigans. Well, maybe some. Woodmansee concludes the weekend with a traditional comedy set, but with the antics of Woodmansee, who knows what that will bring.

Throughout the weekend Tylor Jones will perform, with a bunch of friends and guests getting on stage, too. Audiences will need to sign a consent form for filming purposes. Each night is $20 admission, with a weekend pass being $50 which can be shared among friends.

Best Old-Fashioned Doughnuts CHOW Bend’s In an era of new Instagram delights, can anything beat an old-fashioned?

By Brian Yaeger 35

Brian Yaeger

Richard’s Donuts & Pastries Despite not placing at the top of the list or even second, Richard’s ranks first because the glazed old-fashioned scored the third highest while the chocolate came in fourth. The glazed struck all the right chords with its perfect crispy outer shell and “cakey,” “fluffy” center. One taster said through his drool: “It had all the right crunch in all the right places.”

The chocolate version received raves for the thorough layer of cocoa when others were wildly uneven. Bonus: These are the cheapest in town. $1.15.

61419 S Hwy 97, 541-385-3310

Sweetheart Donuts What a chocoholic like myself finds amazing is that, across the board, the vanilla glazed old-fashioneds ranked higher than their chocolatey siblings.

That’s bonkers, but Sweetheart had the second-biggest disparity between the two, though the regular scored high enough to earn silver in this roundup.

One judge proclaimed it had “just the right amount of everything: perfectly moist inside, crunchy outside and balanced sugar.” Another remarked, “A true delight.” Meanwhile, the chocolate one made one judge swear off chocolate-frosted doughnuts altogether $2.

210 SE 3rd St, 541-323-3788

Sisters Bakery This bakery scores so well in these quarterly roundups it’s almost unfair to have it compete with the Bend shops.

But a funny thing happened on the way to Sisters or, rather, once their morsels were retrieved from there. The glazed version indeed topped the podium achieving an average of 8.7 out of 10. One judge raved about its texture.

Another went ethereal and applauded its “dimension” as if it came from another one. One young fan simply dubbed it, “the best of the best.” So imagine our shock when we collectively ranked the chocolate one the cellar-dweller for tasting like a day-old chocolate-iced cake doughnut that had neither the appearance, texture, nor most importantly, taste, to call itself an old-fashioned. $3

Delish Donuts Here’s the thing about Delish’s old-fashioneds. The standard glazed one was “fine” as a dunker, but ultimately most judges dinged it for being exceedingly “dry.” But the head-scratcher was that the chocolate version saw the already-glazed version get lightly dipped in chocolate. It cost 20 cents extra, but featured scarcely more than a trace of the second layer of sugar. While some judges appreciated the light touch (considering we’ve determined that chocolate frosting doesn’t work as well on an old-fashioned), the most generous judge commented, “The double-glazed situation was a distraction.” $1.55/$1.75 3188 N Hwy 97, Ste. 104, 541-647-2337

W

hen beseeched to write the consummate list of the world’s best doughnut styles for TheTakeOut.com, The Onion’s non-satirical foodie blog, I unintentionally struck a nerve. I awarded buttermilk bars the bronze, but described them as “the augmented version of an old-fashioned…ameliorated by the use of buttermilk in the cake batter in lieu of regular milk (there’s a reason pancakes are made with buttermilk!).”

In a list that was otherwise unassailable and irrefutable, people had some thoughts on omitting old-fashioneds. I get it. When presented perfectly, the glazed craggy ring is one of the most perfect doughnuts. So along with a growing cadre of judges in these quarterly round-ups—from almost-middle-school aged to almost-mid-life—we set out to discover who makes the best, local old-fashioned.

The fact that one of Bend’s four brick’n’mortar doughnut shops only makes them intermittently—tsk tsk, The Dough Nut—makes me realize that such a bakery without old-fashioneds would be like a brewery without an old-school classic pale ale. Given that I’ve awakened to the simple, ecumenical beauty of old-fashioneds, we had one last step in determining the best in Bend. We collected both the quintessential glazed version as well as chocolate-frosted, and even a few others such as cinnamon-sugar, maple-iced and true O.G. plain (like an unglazed cake doughnut, these are only intended for dunking in coffee or hot cocoa), but since not everyone makes all of the above, only glazed and chocolate competed. Here are the results.

CULTURE

Full Metal Alchemists COMAG Returns for its annual show

By Jared Rasic 37

Metal artist Anton Yakushev stands with his creation, Winnie, shown in progress at right and comtemplating existence, below.

VOLUME 26 ISSUE 34 / AUGUST 25, 2022 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

T

he Central Oregon Metal Arts Guild has been putting on shows in Bend for over 20 years, and each year the creations become more and more experimental, fearless and breathtaking. I’ve gone to their full-on art show at the Oxford several times over the eight years they’ve been putting it on and I’m never left with anything other than amazement over what the artists are capable of creating with fire, metal and passion.

COMAG show director Goph Albitz started making jewelry in Big Sur, California, 55 years ago, followed by a shop and showroom in Carmel, all before moving to Bend in 1997 and becoming a part of the Guild since the very beginning in 1999.

“It started out as a group of jewelers getting together over beers and sharing techniques and grievances,” says Albitz. “It was more of a social club than an artist guild. As it grew, we added blacksmiths and sculptors and became a Metal Arts Guild...more than just jewelers.”

I asked Albitz why metal appealed to him the most. His answer was lovely, and voluminous.

“Metal, may it be gold, silver, copper or steel,” Albitz said. “The permanence of your creation, the way it takes to polishing to a high-shine finish or a heavily textured finish, then you can change the color to the highlights with patinas.

The many processes that can be used to achieve what you have imagined or precisely designed; direct fabrication, where you form by hammers, saws, gravers and burnishers is my favorite way to work metal.”

His process continues to evolve just as he evolves as an artist. “My current designs are a multiple-step process where I force an ingot of gold or silver through a power mill until it begins to deconstruct, then letting the crumbling, cracked metal show me the focal point of the piece I’m making,” he said. “Then adding multiple layers of 22k gold, building up a crust, and then deciding how best to embellish the metal with gems and diamonds. Most jewelers approach from the opposite direction: choosing the stone and designing the metal around them.”

One of the highlights of this year’s show is “Winnie,” an eight-foot-tall giraffe, completely hand forged and created directly in the steel by artist Anton Yakushev. I can’t wait to see Winnie in person, because the photos instantly put a smile on my face. Yakushev (much in the same way as Albitz) has metalwork in his blood. “I realized that metal shaped my thoughts and I was destined to transform them into reality

when I started working as a blacksmith,” explains Yakushev. “During my years studying art at the university, I began to experiment with different processes in metal. My curiosity of the material and all the ways I could transform it led me to invent my own techniques and creative approaches to this cultural medium.”

Yakushev doesn’t have a “one-sizefits-all” approach to his creations, though. “The only artistic devices I engage throughout my work are experimentation and improvisation,” he says. “I am not fixed by any intentional, precise or stylistic process. So much depends on the artistic idea. The only technique and material that I permanently dedicate myself to is that all my sculptures are hand forged only and from steel.”

Each artist, whether a writer or a painter or a member of the Central Oregon Metal Arts Guild, has their own reasons for creation. For some, it’s therapy, for others a compulsion to make the thing they see or feel inside become a part of the physical world.

When I asked Yakushev what he hoped his art inspired in others, he gave me an answer that I think doesn’t just describe his own process of creation, but something that touches on the reasons why all artists instinctively have to create: “I love to create independent and isolated worlds for my heroes that are dreams, cloud land cities and otherworld realities where nothing is impossible. Aside from other themes and styles that may be engaged, the thing that truly holds all my art series together is my enduring love and humanism. This is what drives me to create.”

THREE THOUSAND YEARS OF LONGING: The new film by George Miller, the genius behind “Mad Max: Fury Road” and “Babe: Pig in the City,” stars Tilda Swinton and Idris Elba and is focused on a lonely woman who discovers a Djinn in a lamp who offers her three wishes for his freedom. The trailers make this look like an insane work of unfiltered imagination, so here’s hoping it lives up to the hype. Regal Old Mill TOP GUN: MAVERICK: There’s a reason why Tom Cruise is the last true movie star and it’s mostly because he’s that perfect blend of creepy, weird and desperate to entertain us—and boy does he. This feels like a true Hollywood crowd-pleaser in a way we haven’t seen in years. Talk about a highway to the danger zone. Regal Old Mill, Odem Theater Pub WHERE THE CRAWDADS SING: I really liked this book and actress Daisy Edgar-Jones is a fantastic new talent, so hopefully this Rural Noir murder mystery catches the imaginations of people unfamiliar with the story. If the reviews are accurate, the film doesn’t quite capture the same magic as the book does, but not many movies adapt novels very well in the first place. Regal Old Mill, Odem Theater Pub

“On the Count of Three:” Jerrod Carmichael is having a very good year. His stand-up special, “Rothaniel,” is by far the best live comedy performance of 2022 (by far) and his directorial debut, “On the Count of Three,” is an unforgettable pitch-black comedy that forces its audience to choose between laughing hysterically or feeling deeply uncomfortable…sometimes in the same scene. Two best friends (Carmichael and the rapidly rising movie star Christopher Abbott) make a pact to kill themselves after one last day of checking things off of their bucket lists. This is a movie I will revisit many more times, as it’s one of the most incisive looks at trauma, depression and mental illness I’ve seen in years. Carmichael is an astounding talent.

“Jerry and Marge Go Large:” It doesn’t feel like Bryan Cranston has really locked into his next big performance post-“Breaking Bad” yet, but this is a warm and fuzzy place to start. Cranston and Annette Bening play a retired couple who figure out a loophole in the lottery and use it to breathe life back into the small town they call home. I’m a sucker for movies that focus on community and human connection, so even in the moments that the film slipped into cliche, I was still mostly charmed.

“Secret Headquarters:” I figured I should make this article balanced and watch a family movie starring Owen Wilson that looked like an updated version of “Spy Kids,” but I was wrong and made a terrible mistake. This is bland, boring and I don’t wanna talk about it anymore.

“The Outfit:” This played in theaters for like five minutes and I missed it completely, which is a shame since this is a half-classy/half-goofy chamber thriller set in a tailor shop in 1950s Chicago. The great Mark Rylance plays an English “cutter” who deals with gangsters, femme fatales and bloodshed over one very long night when all he wants to do is craft really gorgeous bespoke suits. “The Outfit” could easily be turned into a play, as it’s set completely in one location and deals with a small cast of characters all of whom have a secret. An absolute blast that progressively gets sillier and more fun as it goes.

“Umma:” And why not wrap up my tour of the streamers with a horror flick starring Sandra Oh and produced by the great Sam Raimi? “Umma” follows Oh as a single mother and Korean immigrant, homeschooling her daughter on a rural farm, who is being haunted by the vengeful spirit of her abusive mother. The pedigree is solid, but instead of being a chilling slow-burn horror flick along the lines of “Hereditary,” it never rises above the cliched metaphors it’s trafficking in. A Korean/American thriller focused on generational trauma and inherited scars is a brilliant idea, but this isn’t the way to execute those themes. A sad missed opportunity.

ost studios nowadays have a deal set up with a streaming service to launch their new releases either the day and date of the theatrical release or within a month of opening night. This simultaneously allows the studios to get more of a return on their investment if it doesn’t do well theatrically, while also allowing word of mouth to spread from the massive number of people who aren’t going to see movies in theaters.

It’s nice to see new movies online sooner than before COVID. But that also means the amount of content showing up on streaming services grows larger daily, leaving some pretty great (and way more terrible) movies to slip by normal human people who don’t get paid to watch movies like I do. So, I gave myself an assignment: Watch 2022 releases from multiple different streamers that snuck past me in theaters or never made it off of a streaming service to begin with. I didn’t hit all the streamers, but I did OK.

In this cyclocross race, the rider pushes the bike through a grueling portion.

F

all is around the corner, folks, and for bike fanatics the changing of seasons means one thing: cyclocross, bike racing discipline that utilizes elements of road racing and mountain biking, forcing racers to ride through dirty hill climbs and occasional pavement stretches. Toss in deep muddy/sandy pits that can be unrideable at times, stairs and tall barriers that force riders to dismount and run or jump over them and you have a cyclocross race.

A locals’ favorite race series returns for the month of September to its home at The Athletic Club of Bend. Mount Bachelor Sports Education Foundation puts on the annual Thrillacross race series to kickstart Central Oregon’s ‘cross season.

Riders will face sprints across the lawn, fast berms, dust pits, hurdles, curb hops and much more while lapping the course for either 30 minutes or 45 minutes.

It’s designed to be a celebration for the Bend bike community, with a course that makes it easy for observers to catch the action at multiple observation points. Plus, beer and food abounds. The races start after 5pm Thursday nights so the working people in town can compete.

Thrillacross starts Sept. 1 and runs every Thursday of the month until Sept. 29.

There is a one-week break Sept. 15 so local organizers can focus on the Can Chaser Cross race in Redmond, part of the statewide Harvest Cross race series.

The races are mass start style, with juniors and masters divisions starting at 5:15pm. Open and single speed divisions start at 6pm. Membership with the Oregon Bicycle Racing Association is required to compete, but spectating and bringing the party is free.

Mariposa Nocturna in Your Backyard What denizens of the dark roam your backyard at night?

By Damian Fagan Photos by Damian Fagan

A white-lined sphinx moth pollinates an evening primrose at night.

A sphinx moth caterpillar prowls a tomato plant in search of food.

“BAMONA is a rudimentary eBird, a database where people can submit their sightings and contribute to the knowledge of moths,” said Droppers. “If you have a cellphone and a porch light you can help with phenology and distribution; it’s a database where the average person can contribute.”

At least one Bendite has been bitten by the moth bug.

“I got interested in moths via a general interest in entomology,” said Bob Johnson. “Merrill Peterson’s semi-new (500+ page) bug book (“Pacific Northwest Insects”) got me going. Later I stumbled across Carl Barrentine’s YouTube videos on mothing and Moth Week

(last week in July), and it seemed simple enough to get a black light to see what was going on at night.” Last summer Johnson ran a trap every night at his house. “Once I saw all the diversity, and realized that there was this huge vibrant nighttime world that I didn’t know anything about and that no one else I knew seemed to know anything about, either, I was hooked.”

Johnson uses a Lumix LX-3 pointand-shoot camera to photograph his captured moths before he releases them.

Johnson uploads images to The Field Guide for Lepidoptera site which uses artificial intelligence to “learn” how to identify images, or to Bug Guide. Other

sites that accept images are BAMONA and iNaturalist.

So, what type of plants attract moths?

“If you can think of a native tree or shrub, especially ones in the rose family, there are going to be a lot of moths that use it and many moths are host specific as pollinators or herbivores,” said Droppers. This is in reference to sphinx moth caterpillars, also known as tomato hornworms, which feed on tomato leaves. “Moths can serve as both pest and friend.”

Though gardeners might not like the hornworms, the adult sphinx moth resembles a hummingbird as it sips nectar from night-blooming flowers such as evening primrose. The moth’s wing structure allows them to hover like a hummer, lending to some folks to colloquially call them “hummingbird moths” or “hawkmoths.”

So how common are moths? In a typical suburban yard, Dropper estimates someone could locate 30 to 40 species in a night. “I’ve got some folks in D.C. who have over 500 moths on their yard list. Bob Johnson is still trying to calculate the number of species he’s trapped in his Bend yard but he estimates he “… saw over 275 species last year, which is a heck of a lot of species, considering I’m running a single trap outside my back door, here in the middle of town.”

Droppers agrees. “You just spend a few nights watching moths, then say, ‘Wait, wait, this whole show is happening in my backyard?”’ said Droppers. With a little more interest, perhaps moths will get the respect they deserve.

oths (known in Spanish as polillas or la mariposa nocturna) are the Rodney Dangerfield of the Lepidopteran world—they “don’t get no respect.” These denizens of the dark flit around our neighborhoods and woodlands under the cover of darkness unbeknownst to most of us. The often dark, “hairy” bodies of moths don’t ignite the interest meter like their cousins, day-flying colorful butterflies.

In Central Oregon, the pandora moth is probably the most well-known moth due to its large size and seasonal abundance. Who hasn’t been to a Bend Elks game only to view hundreds of moths as they lift off when a foul ball hits the backstop netting?

Both moths and butterflies are in the order Lepidoptera – the name is from Greek words meaning “scaled wings,” which refers to the tiny, shingled-like appearance of their wings under the microscope. Moths tend to be nocturnal (not all) and their antennae are feathery or bear saw-like edges to better pick up pheromones and floral scents. In the U.S., there are roughly 11,000 species of moths compared to fewer than 1,000 butterflies.

What role do moths play in the ecosystem?

“Pollinators and food for other wildlife, mainly birds,” said David Droppers, Northwest regional coordinator for Butterflies and Moths of North America.

“If someone asks me about attracting birds to their yard, I tell them to plant the plants that moths lay their eggs on because caterpillars are high on the list for baby bird food.”

Gnome More Boring Beer

Little Woody barrel-aged fest returns Sept. 2 & 3

By Nicole Vulcan Brian Becker

www.tokyostarfish.com

HOW DO YOU ROCKET?

“It’s like having a neighborhood party where you catch up with friends, meet new people and have lots of fun in the process,” is how Deschutes Historical Museum Manager Vanessa Ivy describes The Little Woody, the barrel-aged beer, cider and whiskey festival that happens quite literally in the museum’s front yard.

What’s better than a festival that brings aged beers, whiskeys and ciders?

One that also involves costumes. This year’s Little Woody happens Friday and Saturday, Sept. 2 and 3, bringing back a locals’ favorite tradition of unique beverages AND an invitation to dress up in gnome-themed gear. The first 75 people who show up in full “gnomy” costumes (and not just a hat, slacker) get a special festival goblet. Festival tickets range from a $5 designated driver ticket to a $40 VIP ticket that includes early access, a tasting glass, drink tokens and a t-shirt. A standard package with eight tasting tokens is $25.

On top of “tasters” of small-batch beers, ciders and artisan rye whiskeys and bourbons, there’s also live music and food from local vendors, with live music starting at 5pm. Musical selections include Americana, pop, country, bluegrass, folk and reggae funk.

Close to two dozen breweries are taking part in The Little Woody, including local favorites such as Bend Brewing Company, Deschutes Brewery, Sunriver Brewing, Boneyard Beer, Silver Moon Brewing, Cascade Lakes

Brewing Co., Kobold Brewing, GoodLife Brewing Company, Three Creeks Brewing and Wild Ride. Also on tap are Oregon breweries including Buoy Beer and Fort George from Astoria, pFriem from Hood River, Hopworks from Portland, Alesong from Eugene, Block 15 from Corvallis, Rogue from Newport and Finnriver Farm & Cidery from the Olympic Peninsula of Washington.

New this year are “whiskey sampling” sessions in the whiskey tent both Friday and Saturday nights.

Also new this year: A partnership with the Bend Beer Run, which allows runners doing the 21+ 5k to make one of their “beer stops” inside The Little Woody.

The Little Woody donates a portion of its proceeds to the Deschutes Historical Museum.

“Our volunteers and staff look forward, each year, to sharing the local history with participants and remind everyone that they are welcome to explore the halls and galleries during the event,” said Ivy of the museum.

The Little Woody is put on by Lay It Out Events, the sister company of the Source Weekly.

writes, “There are two kinds of magic. One comes from the heroic leap, the upward surge of energy, the explosive arc that burns bright across the sky.

The other kind is the slow accretion of effort: the water-on-stone method, the soft root of the plant that splits the sidewalk, the constant wind that scours the mountain clean.” Can you guess which type of magic will be your specialty in the coming weeks, Leo? It will be the laborious, slow accretion of effort. And that is precisely what will work best for the tasks that are most important for you to accomplish.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): “Now that I’m free to be myself, who am I?” Virgo-born Mary Oliver asks that question to start one of her poems. She spends the rest of the poem speculating on possible answers. At the end, she concludes she mostly longs to be an “empty, waiting, pure, speechless receptacle.” Such a state of being might work well for a poet with lots of time on her hands, but I don’t recommend it for you in the coming weeks.

Instead, I hope you’ll be profuse, active, busy, experimental, and expressive. That’s the best way to celebrate the fact that you are now freer to be yourself than you have been in a while.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): In her book Tales From Earthsea, Libra-born Ursula K. Le Guin wrote, “What goes too long unchanged destroys itself. The forest is forever because it dies and dies and so lives.” I trust you’re embodying those truths right now. You’re in a phase of your cycle when you can’t afford to remain unchanged. You need to enthusiastically and purposefully engage in dissolutions that will prepare the way for your rebirth in the weeks after your birthday. The process might sometimes feel strenuous, but it should ultimately be great fun.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): As a Scorpio, novelist Fyodor Dostoyevsky was rarely guilty of oversimplification. Like any intelligent person, he could hold contradictory ideas in his mind without feeling compelled to seek more superficial truths.

He wrote, “The causes of human actions are usually immeasurably more complex and varied than our subsequent explanations of them.” I hope you will draw inspiration from his example in the coming weeks, dear Scorpio. I trust you will resist the temptation to reduce colorful mysteries to straightforward explanations. There will always be at least three sides to every story. I invite you to relish glorious paradoxes and fertile enigmas.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Author Zadie Smith praised Sagittarian writer Joan Didion.

She says, “I remain grateful for the day I picked up Joan Didion’s Slouching Towards Bethlehem and realized that a woman could speak without hedging her bets, without hemming and hawing, without making nice, without sounding pleasant or sweet, without deference, and even without doubt.” I encourage Sagittarians of every gender to be inspired by Didion in the coming weeks. It’s a favorable time to claim more of the authority you have earned. Speak your kaleidoscopic wisdom without apology or dilution. More fiercely than ever before, embody your high ideals and show how well they work in the rhythms of daily life.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Capricorn novelist Marcia Douglas writes books about the history of her people in Jamaica. In one passage, she writes, “My grandmother used to tell stories about women that change into birds and lizards. One day, a church-going man dared to laugh at her; he said it was too much for him to swallow. My grandmother looked at him and said, ‘I bet you believe Jesus turned water into wine.’” My purpose in telling you this, Capricorn, is to encourage you to nurture and celebrate your own fantastic tales. Life isn’t all about reasonableness and pragmatism.

You need myth and magic to thrive. You require the gifts of imagination and art and lyrical flights of fancy. This is especially true now. To paraphrase

David Byrne, now is a perfect time to refrain from making too much sense.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): To be the best Aquarius you can be in the coming weeks, I suggest the following: 1. Zig when others zag. Zag when others zig. 2. Play with the fantasy that you’re an extraterrestrial who’s engaged in an experiment on planet Earth. 3. Be a hopeful cynic and a cheerful skeptic. 4. Do things that inspire people to tell you, “Just when I thought I had you figured out, you do something unexpected to confound me.” 5. Just for fun, walk backward every now and then. 6. Fall in love with everything and everyone: a D-List celebrity, an oak tree, a neon sign, a feral cat.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): A blogger who calls herself HellFresh writes, “Open and raw communication with your partners and allies may be uncomfortable and feel awkward and vulnerable, but it solves so many problems that can’t be solved any other way.” Having spent years studying the demanding arts of intimate relationship, I agree with her. She adds, “The idea that was sold to us is ‘love is effortless and you should communicate telepathically with your partner.’ That’s false.” I propose, Pisces, that you fortify yourself with these truths as you enter the Reinvent Your Relationships Phase of your astrological cycle.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): In his poem “Autobiographia Literaria,” Aries-born Frank O’Hara wrote, “When I was a child, I played in a corner of the schoolyard all alone. If anyone was looking for me, I hid behind a tree and cried out, ‘I am an orphan.’” Over the years, though, O’Hara underwent a marvelous transformation.

This is how his poem ends: “And here I am, the center of all beauty! Writing these poems! Imagine!” In the coming months, Aries, I suspect that you, too, will have the potency to outgrow and transcend a sadness or awkwardness from your own past. The shadow of an old source of suffering may not disappear completely, but I bet it will lose much of its power to diminish you.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): In his poem “Auguries of Innocence,” William Blake (1757–1827) championed the ability “to see a World in a Grain of Sand. And a Heaven in a Wild Flower. Hold Infinity in the palm of your hand.” According to my reading of the astrological omens, Taurus, you are primed to do just that in the coming days. You have the power to discern the sacred in the midst of mundane events. The magic and mystery of life will shine from every little thing you encounter. So I will love it if you deliver the following message to a person you care for: “Now I see that the beauty I had not been able to find in the world is in you.”

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): “The time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time,” said philosopher Bertrand Russell. I will add that the time you enjoy wasting is often essential to your well-being. For the sake of your sanity and health, you periodically need to temporarily shed your ambitions and avoid as many of your responsibilities as you safely can.

During these interludes of refreshing emptiness, you recharge your precious life energy. You become like a fallow field allowing fertile nutrients to regenerate. In my astrological opinion, now is one of these revitalizing phases for you.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): “My own curiosity and interest are insatiable,” wrote Cancerian author Emma Lazarus (1849–1887). Inspired by the wealth of influences she absorbed, she created an array of poetry, plays, novels, essays, and translations—including the famous poem that graces the pedestal of America’s Statue of Liberty. I recommend her as a role model for you in the coming weeks, Cancerian. I think you’re ripe for an expansion and deepening of your curiosity. You will benefit from cultivating an enthusiastic quest for new information and fresh influences. Here’s a mantra for you: “I am wildly innocent as I vivify my soul’s education.”

BODYMIND

By Mike Macy

A column exploring the therapeutic applications of the BodyMind

Heart of the Matter

M

Mi ke

Evolution has taken great lengths to protect the heart: skin, ribs and spine, pericardium, the serous fluid between each layer, and the three ligaments that suspend it in space to prevent collisions with its bony cage. Indeed, only the brain comes close, protection-wise.

Nonetheless, the heart remains vulnerable. It can still be bruised. It can be tweaked by tensions communicated to it by an adhesion between it and neighboring structures or by restrictions on any inch of the 120,000 miles of blood vessels. Think of the heart as the trunk of a tree, with the veins and arteries serving the abdomen and lower extremities as its roots and the veins and arteries of the arms, neck and head as its branches. A restriction on any one of these roots or branches could interfere with the heart’s mobility, motility and pumping.

Since most of us average about 100,000 heartbeats per day, and 38 million beats per year, the effects of even a small restriction compound continuously. To minimize that interference, the body recruits muscles and sacrifices bones and joints to draw the restricted part closer to the trunk, thereby reducing the tension. Indeed, this is the origin of many chronic joint problems.

Although restrictions may be purely physical, many include a bodymind component: some emotional overload that the brain has parked in the tissue, waiting to be discovered and released.

I once treated a nurse who’d become overly attached to her dying patients.

Her heart was nearly glued to her spine until she learned a different way to re-member them.

raditional Chinese Medicine associates summer with Fire. One of five elements, Fire includes the Pericardium, Triple Warmer, Small Intestine and Heart meridians. The pericardium protects the heart from shocks and Triple Warmer balances the thoracic, digestive and eliminative organs. In TCM, Small Intestine separates the pure from the impure, a mety ac aphor for what it actually does.

No internal organ has a bigger role than the heart. TCM views it as the home of “shen” or Spirit. The English reflects that: we are heartened by good news, disheartened by bad. If we take things too much to heart, we can end up broken-hearted. The French word for heart is coeur, as in encouraged and discouraged. In other words, Anglo-European culture’s embrace of the bodymind connection is centuries old.

With help from the lungs, the heart supplies the brain with oxygen and nutrients. Keeping the “lights on upstairs” is the most important job in the body, hence the emphasis on Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation.

However, subtle motions are important to the function and vitality of all our organs, including the heart. We’re not just talking about the pulse and wavelike movement of blood, critical as that may be. There is mobility, the passive ability to accommodate the movement of adjacent structures. For the heart, this includes the bellows-like movements of the respiratory diaphragm, the lungs, and the ribs and sternum, but also our bending, turning, lifting, walking and running. The heart’s function and vitality also depends on motility, the active movements around the organ’s own axis. On the order of six to eight cycles per minute, most organ motilities are paired with another’s, but the heart pendulums from side to side, independently. Perhaps, that’s why the heart is sometimes called the lonely hunter.

Home Inspections

FIND YOUR PLACE IN BEND

www.otiscraig.com

Making the most of your inspection educate yourself on what kind of items should be concerning and what kind of things can simply be added to a “weekend to-do list.” For instance, an inspector pointing out a cracked outlet cover should not scare a buyer away from a home, whereas major mold issues may do so.

One of the best ways to learn about your new house and the major systems is to attend the home inspection.

There’s a lot of value in learning where your water shut-off is located and how you access the crawl space, or learning about your electrical box and breakers and what each light switch does. Everyone has different levels of knowledge about homes, so take the opportunity to ask the inspector whatever questions you have. Attending the inspection also makes reading and understanding the inspection report much easier, as the inspector will likely take some time to show you some of the items they will be “calling out” in the report.

Typically, in the state of Oregon, from the time buyer and seller agree to terms, the buyer has 10 days to inspect the property and negotiate any repairs or credits. The buyer can terminate the purchase agreement and retain their earnest money if they are within this window, so staying on top of your inspection period is imperative. Time is of the essence when it comes to getting your inspection scheduled and completed to allow time to negotiate any needed repairs/credits, so that everything is buttoned up before the inspection window expires. Hope this helps with your next home inspection!

ome inspections are often the most nerve-wracking part of real estate transaction for all parties (buyers, sellers, agents). If a deal is going to fall apart, most of them begin to unravel during the home inspection process.

Sometimes buyers get “cold feet” after finding out about some small or large issues; sometimes the buyer and seller cannot come to terms when negotiating repairs or credits. Often, agents can work through these issues in a professional manner and keep the transaction moving forward to closing. I did want to take a moment to talk about home inspections—what they are, how to make the most of your inspection and how the inspection is used in a real estate transaction.

A home inspection is an objective examination of the physical structure and systems of a home, from the top of the roof to the crawlspace and foundation. I cannot stress this enough: Get a home inspection every time.

Part of making a “good decision” is being aware of as many facts as possible; having a professional inspector go through a property as well as check out the major components is easily worth the cost. Now, one must also understand that the job of a home inspector is to find issues, or point out things that are imperfect, and trust me, they always find things. I work with inspectors who inspect brand-new construction and they find things to report on every time. Both the buyer and the agent need to understand that while an inspector will point out dozens of issues in most homes, it is important to keep perspective. Take some time to
