ince Oregon voters approved recreational marijuana and it became legal in 2015, the industry has seen a lot of changes. What started as a grassroots, largely local industry has begun its corporatization. Oversupply—due at least in part to the fact that Oregon businesses can’t export their product out of state, like other businesses can— prompted a moratorium on new business licenses, at least for a time. Meanwhile, CBD is popping up in everything from moisturizer to breath mints.

And in our local area, we continue to see the good, the bad and the uncertain elements of ushering in an industry that was in the shadows for decades.

The good: Kudos to the City of Bend for offering marijuana businesses some level of privacy in an industry that is already overwhelmed with regulation. As the City prepares to implement CityView, its new permitting, licensing and inspections software, the City Council voted in favor of removing personal identifiable information from its software. Before this, when submitting a marijuana business operation license application, applicants had to submit the driver’s license or government-issued photo i.d. number for all managers and owners of the business—information that would then be easily accessible through the City’s website. Not only did that put personal information out there when it didn’t need to be—it was information the City didn’t need to gather, since the Oregon Health Authority—which medical growers work with—or the Oregon Liquor Control Commission— which regulates recreational providers— already perform background checks and gather that needed personal information.

This is a small move, but one that offers more fairness for this legal industry.

Also good: The passage of the Oregon bill that disallows landlords from discriminating against people who have marijuana convictions on their records—or who are medical marijuana patients. It can be challenging

to prove a landlord discriminated, but it’s a positive step toward erasing the damage of prohibition nonetheless.

The bad: The Deschutes County Commission, which includes two avowed anti-marijuana zealots, continues to deny marijuana-operations for flimsy reasons, this time denying the application for a dispensary in Tumalo, where its owners had complied with all necessary regulations. Commissioner Patti Adair even admitted her willingness to go against the majority will of the people when she stated during a meeting that the majority of county residents voted against legal recreational marijuana, and that was the reason for her willingness to continue denying applications—as if it is possible or politically responsible to separate the voters of rural Deschutes County from the rest of the county in decision-making that affects the entire county. If there’s any ray of light here, it’s that Commissioner Tony DeBone has begun to be more vocal in his opposition to the other two Commissioners’ undemocratic wranglings… but since he’ll continue to be outvoted two to one, it’s barely solace.

The uncertain: The list of products infused with CBD these days is long—but that might not last, since on May 31, the Food and Drug Administration held a hearing in what’s seen as the first step toward possible regulation of CBD in food and beverages. The 2018 Farm Bill made industrial hemp legal across the U.S.—including products that are hemp-derived—(good stuff for Deschutes County hemp farmers, who don’t have to pass muster with the County Commission to do their work), which included CBD. But since the FDA regulates food, beverages and dietary supplements, the addition of CBD to those products lies in something of a grey area right now. The FDA relies on clinical studies to inform its work—and those are in somewhat short supply for CBD. How will this all shake out? It’s unclear—but if you feel strongly about it one way or the other, the FDA is taking public comments on the issue through July 2.

IN RESPONSE TO, “MIRROR POND: INSTEAD OF ANOTHER GROUNDHOG DAY, LET THE PEOPLE VOTE” ON 5/29

People want a holistic approach to Mirror Pond. One element of that is fish passage. When it was built in 1910 the dam was required to have passage.

The ladder was not maintained properly and by 1960 it was no longer functional. ODFW estimated in 1990 that 2,961 wild trout were being killed by turbine mortalities every year. This occurs during downstream passage and the turbines aren’t screened. Sixty years times 3,000 fish is a lot of fish.

Add to that the impacts of preventing fish in the warmer Middle Deschutes to migrate out of sometimes-lethal temperatures and the isolation of genetic populations of wild trout, the damage done to our fishery is quite significant.

PacifiCorp is obviously aware of the problems and has done nothing to fix them. With all the millions of dollars being spent to improve flows and fish habitat above and below the project,

it makes no sense for this fish-killing machine to continue its current practices. PacifiCorp is responsible for replacing the fish passage they let fail.

PLANET EARTH where everything and everyone throughout time and space has been in MIGRANT MODE. What is the justification for the hate, fear, discrimination and violence targeting people of color immigrating from Central and South America, since migration is a natural phenomenon?

Why do Latinx people, compelled to leave their homes at great risk to themselves and their families, immigrate to the United States?

The root causes of this untenable situation are obvious but easily ignored by people in power who shamelessly manipulate gullible people with relentless propaganda labeling migrants as rapists, criminals, drug dealers and invaders.

RACISM is the foundation of U.S. immigration policies. Discrimination against people of color is the bedrock of immigration decisions. Class status was recently proposed by the administration as yet another means of discrimination.

TRADE POLICIES such as NAFTA, based on exploitation of workers and resources, have destroyed the economy in Central America. Farmers discovered very quickly after the imposition of NAFTA that they were unable to compete with heavily subsidized U.S. agricultural corporations. Survival depends on migration.

The WAR ON DRUGS is a method to demonize and incarcerate blacks in the United States. These policies have resulted in an explosion of drug cartels in Central and South America, where countries have yielded to U.S. pressure to implement draconian drug laws.

The drug cartels, one of the few economic means of survival, are engaged in a vicious cycle of competition, violence and death.

A REIGN of TERROR has ensued with people and families living in a constant state of fear and danger.

City Club of Central Oregon hosts a panel on the changing options for transgender people

By Chris Miler

O

n June 18, the City Club of Bend is hosting a forum on the topic of expanding healthcare for transgender Central Oregonians.

Erin Rook, diversity coordinator at Oregon State University-Cascades and co-founder of the Central Oregon Trans Health Coalition, will moderate the event, bringing in area medical professionals and other transgender experts.

According to the City Club’s website, as Central Oregon businesses and organizations have become increasingly aware of the importance of diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI), they can struggle with how to mirror the best practices of big city organizations that have dedicated DEI staff.

Even with Oregon’s inclusive laws, the transgender community still faces hurdles.

According to the 2015 U.S. Trans Survey, 33 percent of respondents experienced a problem with insurance in the past year, related to being transgender—such as being denied coverage for care related to gender transition or being denied coverage for routine care because they were transgender. Thirty-six percent of those who saw a health care provider

in the past year reported having at least one negative experience related to being transgender—including being refused treatment, being verbally harassed, being physically or sexually assaulted or having to teach the provider about transgender people in order to receive appropriate care. And 15 percent of respondents reported that a professional, such as a psychologist, counselor or religious advisor, tried to talk them out of being transgender.

During the panel, people will hear from experts as they discuss how health systems serving the rural areas of Central Oregon are drawing on local expertise to create meaningful systemic change for transgender individuals.

One of the panelists is the new Pediatric Director at Mosaic Medical, Ellie Millan.

Millan—who’s a pediatric nurse practitioner by trade—said she got into transgender care about the same time the Oregon Health Plan agreed to begin covering transition-related care, in January 2015. Millan said she started seeing a pair of transgender brothers, both trans male, about four year ago.

“What I recognized is that nobody really from pediatrics was treating transgender

folks in Central Oregon and historically they were having to go up to Portland,” Millan told the Source.

Another panelist is Dr. Rebecca Scrafford, a pediatric psychologist who works out of St. Charles’ Programs of Evaluation, Development and Learning clinic, and does assessments for Central Oregon Pediatric Associates. While her primary focus is on autism, the increasing request for assessments of transgender youth inspired her to bring education and awareness to St. Charles and the broader provider community. Scrafford is also a co-chair of the Central Oregon Trans Health Coalition.

Also on the panel is Trinity Anderson, a military veteran who facilitates a transgender support group for the LGBTQ nonprofit, Human Dignity Coalition. She also advocates for the rights of transgender veterans and has worked with the local Veterans Affairs clinic to increase its understanding of the needs of transgender patients.

According to the Williams Institute—a think-tank at the University of California-Los Angeles Law School focused on LGBTQ research and public policy—an estimated 1.4 million transgender people live in the U.S., with an estimated 19,750 in Oregon.

Rook said that while he’s not aware of any Central Oregon-specific research, he estimates there are over 1,000 transgender people in Central Oregon, factoring in that among the wider Oregon population, .65 percent of people are transgender, according to WI figures.

Oregon has the seventh-highest percentage of transgender population in the U.S., according to WI. Rook said this may be due to the fact that Oregon has more trans-inclusive and support laws and policies—particularly with respect to health care and changing identity documents.

But even with a higher population of trans individuals, concerns arise. The suicide rate for transgender people is about 35 percent higher than for non-transgender people. According to the 2015 Trans Survey, 41 percent of transgender people have attempted suicide in their lifetimes, versus 4.6 percent among non-trans people.

Among young people, the numbers can be even higher. More than 50 percent of trans male teens—youth who were assigned female at birth but identify as male—have attempted suicide.

Still, according to Rook, little changes can make a big difference for young people.

“The good news is that according to a study in the October 2018 issue of Adolescent Health, calling a transgender student by their chosen name can reduce the risk of suicide by 65 percent,” Rook said.

Change Coming to Parking Rules

Chris Miller

People who park vehicles on city streets will need to move within three business days of a complaint

By Chris Miller

Living across from a school bus For people who live in neighborhoods where people frequently live in their cars, the change is a step in the right direction.

“You never really know what you’re going to encounter,” says Dara Robertson, who lives across from Juniper Park on Bend’s east side. “You can go out in the morning to

walk the dog, and there’s a guy peeing.”

Robertson said people have pulled all of their belongings out of their vehicles and dumped them on her property. She’s had someone leave a drawing of her home on the front porch. She’s repeatedly called the police hotline about cars that stay too long—in addition to confronting people living across the street from her living room windows.

“We can’t open the windows because I’m looking at this giant school bus,” Robertson said.

Robertson said she understands there’s an issue with housing in Bend and that the problem of people camping on her street lessens when the weather warms.

“We’re compassionate, heartfelt people,” Robertson said. “I understand the reason a lot of these folks do it, but after the four or fifth time of talking to people, I’m the one who feels like an a-hole. I pay taxes, I put in a $2,500 sidewalk for the City.”

According to Aurand, City code contains language prohibiting camping in “public parks and other City property.”

However, federal and state courts make it difficult for local governments to enforce those regulations against homeless people in parks and public rights-of-way.

Attempts to define what it means to camp are often subject to costly legal challenges.

“Being homeless is obviously not a crime,” Aurand wrote in an email to the Source. “Beyond that, federal and state courts are increasingly skeptical of laws and regulations that may affect or have a disproportionate impact on individuals

Zach Polton stands outside of his school bus, turned home on Northeast First Street in Bend.

many people who are living out of their cars—or buses—don’t park on the west side because the neighborhoods gang up to complain about parked motorhomes or vehicles. Police respond quicker and make people move immediately, Polton alleged.

Bend Police Lt. Clint Burleigh flatly disagreed with Polton’s assertion of more police action on the west side.

“Whether it’s the west side, north side, south side, it doesn’t matter, you’re going to find areas where people are parking for extended periods of time on public streets,” Burleigh told the Source.

“We take every vehicle involved the same so that when complaints come in, we’re being consistent as much as we can.”

Burleigh said the process of removing illegally parked cars is complaint driven, and that the police don’t actively look for illegally parked cars like they do for people parking in disabled parking spots without a permit. Still, he says, if areas get constant complaints, the police may treat those areas a bit differently.

Robertson said her neighbors have taken to naming the conversion vans.

One, that they often see outside their home they’ve named “The Cobra,” as a way to lighten the situation.

“I get it. There’s nowhere to live in this town,” Robertson said. “It’s expensive.”

because of their status, including the status of being homeless.”

Aurand said the courts have restricted the authority of local governments to enforce regulations that prohibit camping or otherwise restrict the use of public spaces, because these regulations often have a disproportionate impact on homeless people, even if the regulations are not expressly targeted at any group of people.

Living in a school bus Zack Polton moved to Bend from Iowa in 2018 and has been working at Barrio in downtown Bend since September 2018.

Polton bought an old school bus in January and has called it home since. Polton said housing in Bend is unaffordable even for people who are working—unless you live on the outskirts, which raises transportation costs, making it still unaffordable.

Polton invited me and Source intern Bron Wickum into his bus, currently parked on the east side of Bend. The bus has been modified slightly to include a bed, food storage and window coverings. Polton said he planned on more modifications, and hopes to sell the bus in the future to another person looking for a home on wheels.

According to Polton, RV parks won’t take busses and are out of his budget at $700 to $800 a month. He also said that

iting an increasing number of comments from concerned citizens, the Bend City Council voted 4-2 last Wednesday to amend the parking code to shorten the time people can park cars on public right-of-way. The vote changes the maximum from five calendar days to three business days.

According to the language of the ordinance, it’s intended to increase parking turnover, and to respond to concerns from people about the amount of time that passes between a report of a potential parking violation and vehicle towing.

Councilor Bruce Abernethy said during the meeting that he supports the move and proposed the possibility of a sliding-scale fine for repeat offenders.

“We need to send a message that we’re doing something,” Abernethy said.

When a parked vehicle is reported to the Bend Police Department, one of six volunteers responds to the complaint, says Anne Aurand, City of Bend communications director. Volunteers issue a notice to the vehicle in question, and the team comes back to confirm the vehicle hasn’t moved within the three business days. Then it’s subject to impound.

Oregon lawmakers approved a measure on Thursday that could allow the state to adopt daylight saving time year-round.

“Climate Kids” Suit Set for Review

Twenty-one young people are alleging the federal government’s inaction on climate change is depriving them of their right to “a climate system capable of sustaining human life.”

The suit, formally known as Juliana v. United States, argues that this deprivation by the federal government requires the judiciary to intervene.

They are seeking an order to eight federal agencies mandating the preparation of a “national remedial plan,” laying out how Courtesy Charles Edward Miller, Flickr to reduce and eventually stop the use of fossil fuels and other carbon emissions. The order would also require the agencies to maintain industry compliance with the plan.

In any case, the rocks that volcanoes made are everywhere. You’ll see them shimmering about as you enter the Glass Buttes area, but you can also dig for them. According to the U.S. Forest Service, in “the low lands about 3 miles east of Glass Butte and on Little Glass Butte 4 miles to the southeast, several eruptions produced the obsidian flows that rockhounds collect from today.”

Note that part about the lowlands?

Types of obsidian found at Glass Butte and Little Glass Butte, according to U.S.F.S., include black, fire, double flow, gold sheen, mahogany, midnight lace, pumpkin, rainbow, silver sheen—some with dazzling marbles or layers; others more mono-color. If you’re into this for a day-long trip, bring along enough water to clean off your quarry, so you can figure out how many of each of those you collected.

The Bureau of Land Management is the land manager for Glass Buttes. As a general rule, the BLM allows each person to collect up to 25 pounds per day, plus one piece, with a maximum of 250 pounds per year.

By Chris Miller

Eastbound: Glass Buttes

This stark stretch of land is a legal obsidian collection spot—but watch what you call those who do so

prizes you can take home. Still, it’s a simple, not-much-fuss excursion, made more comfortable with the addition of a few items, including leather gloves, a crow bar, a trowel, hand broom and any other digging tools you might have on hand. Sturdy shoes that won’t easily be poked through, water

and sunscreen are also key. On that note—this isn’t the best excursion for dogs, due to the pokiness of the obsidian. Head east on Highway 20 until just before mile post 77, where you’ll turn right and head south for about 3.5 miles. It’s rockhound code not to tell you where to go from there.

My internet research on Glass Buttes turned up a thread that made mention of something curious: Some people who collect rocks don’t like to be called “rockhounds.” Is it because it conjures a dog-like image? Does it just sound too desperate? The thread didn’t say—leaving us thread-readers on red.

If rockhounding is something you already do on the regular, you may not need the basic tips for collecting obsidian, offered below. That’s something of the beauty of this off-the-beaten path adventure: It’s a step above the typical picnic or short hike and involves

Sometimes teaching kids to fish takes much more patience than the actual fishing part. You’ve got to tie all the tackle, bait the hook—and if you were duped, you got an old-school push button reel that will fail the second time your child casts it.

After reading the Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife’s sport fishing regulations, I wanted to find a place that’s easy for kids to nearly fish completely on their own. A good spot for this is the Century Drive Gravel Pond.

The pond fills up with snow melt on good snow years. When this happens, ODFW will come out with one of its stocking trucks and dump hundreds of rainbow trout into the crystal clear water. You can literally see the fish swimming around. When you’ve found the right color of PowerBait, you can see them take the hook.

After tying the terminal tackle for my fishing buddy and 7-year-old son, I gave a quick lesson on casting a spinning reel: Just point the rod directly behind your shoulder and let go of the line right after the rod comes past your ear. My son’s first cast went straight up in the air, his chartreuse bait landing in the dirt at the pond’s edge.

“That didn’t go very well,” he said, reeling in his less-than-perfect cast.

After a quick reminder on how to cast, his next throw went nearly across the pond. He took a seat in his folding camp chair, let the weight sink to the bottom, and waited semi-patiently for a fish to take the bait.

Chris Miller

Some of my son’s friends already have their own cell phones. He likes to play video games, as most children his age do.

After about 20 minutes of not catching a fish, he started down the, “I have nothing fun to do” routine, but then his rod jumped off the tackle box and bounded across the gravel toward the pond.

Aidan caught his first fish all by himself that day—in fact, he caught six fish without any help, except for the tying of knots. The world of video games became unimportant for a nice, sunny afternoon.

Century Gravel Pond is located off Cascades Lakes Highway on the way to Cultus Lake. Osprey and bald eagles patrol the skies, along with some very chatty ravens. There’s no marking for the gravel road to the pond—but it’s not a secret place and is about a quarter mile on the road to Cultus.

Although there are no camp spots at the gravel pond, Cultus Lake rents cabins and has a restaurant. You can also camp at Crane Prairie, or since you’re in the Deschutes National Forest, you can camp on many of the dirt or gravel roads—just make sure you have the Nortwest Forest Pass, so you don’t get a ticket.

Fishing the pond is pretty straightforward: bring light gear and a couple of different kinds of PowerBait. On our trip, chartreuse was the color that worked the best, although rainbow caught one fish as well.

ODFW stocks the gravel pond with harvestable rainbow trout. We released all of our fish for someone else to catch, because my fishing buddy doesn’t like to eat them.

Westbound: Stahlman Point Bask in the beauty of the Willamette National Forest, Detroit Lake and Mt. Jefferson all in one go

By Isaac Biehl

It’s rare to find a spot that can serve as a perfect day trip while also making for a great overnight outing – but

planning a trip up to Stahlman Point does just that. While the areas around Detroit Lake can get crowded, Stahlman Point gives a nice reprieve from all of the others making use of the lake’s recreation prowess.

If you plan on just going for the day, the ride to the trailhead is a little over an hour-and-a-half. This makes it a great halfway point to meet up with a friend from Portland, which is exactly what we did. The parking lot at the trailhead is of smaller size, with room for probably around six cars.

The trail itself makes for a nice out and back effort and should be accessible throughout most of the year (and yes, it is dog-friendly).

According to All Trails, Stahlman Point is just 4 miles long. The end

hikes in the area before you head back for the day or continue to your campsite on the lake for some ultimate relaxing.

Northbound: White River Falls State Park Tucked away near the Tygh Valley, a moderate, gorgeous hike for sightseers

By Keely Damara

For those looking to explore north of Bend, this magical waterfall hike just east of Tygh Valley along Highway 216 is ideal. It’s especially good for those who love to sightsee, but aren’t down for a longer trek.

The park is just two hours north of Bend, making it close enough for a day trip. Although the trail is under 1 mile long, making it manageable for non-hikers, the first leg of the dirt path is rocky and a bit steep. People with limited mobility may find this trail a bit challenging. After a rather intense leg day at the gym, I definitely struggled. If you can’t make it down to see the lower falls, there’s still a lookout point at the trailhead with a great view of the upper falls, and easily accessible from a parking lot.

If you can make it down into the canyon, you’ll spot an old, decrepit building from yesteryear. I learned from Oregon State Parks that it’s a historic hydroelectric power plant which supplied electricity to Wasco and Sherman Counties from 1910, until the completion of The Dalles Dam in 1960. The 90-foot waterfall is truly a sight to behold, with plenty of spots on the short trail to stop for stellar photos.

If you’re looking for more activities once you’ve seen the park, the town of Maupin is close by and offers a variety of river rafting and fishing adventures.

goal at the top is actually the spot of an old lookout site. I’d probably give it a medium to moderate rating as there’s a pretty gradual incline for most of the route.

On the way up to the point you get to take in gorgeous wildflowers, greenery and tall Douglas firs. According to the U.S. Forest Service, Osprey nest in this area, so keep your eyes peeled. Eventually, you’ll see glimpses of bright blue water poking out from behind the trees—extra motivation to keep climbing. At the top are fantastic views of Detroit Lake and its island to the west, along with a direct look at Mt. Jefferson to the east—all draped in the vast sea of trees. It’s basically made for taking awesome photographs.

AUSTN Coming Home

The 16-year-old singer is fresh off his debut EP and ready for Bendites to hear his music

15

By Isaac Biehl Bubba Sellars

AUSTN plans to release a lot of upbeat–summertime music the rest of the year.

chunk of music that I’ve been like keeping behind closed doors for a while,” Brown says of the EP. “I’m excited for everyone to listen to it and pick out their favorite songs.”

Brown’s two favorites on the project are “In Betweenin,’” an absolute summertime bop, and “Wait for You.” Brown is very proud of that one, since he handled all the writing himself.

For only being 16, the material throughout the EP is pretty personal—a brave move for someone still experiencing a lot of firsts in life and his career.

“I like to go in not really thinking about worries or stresses. I like to just go in with an open mind and not worry about opening up too much. Because the things you feel most vulnerable about in writing, are the things that people connect to,” Brown says.

AUSTN’s songwriting style is unique for a pop singer. He talks about emotions and relationships in a way that’s straight forward and quirky – similar to one of his current idols and best songwriters in the industry, Julia Michaels. Some other influences he mentions include Jack

Johnson, Sam Smith and Adele, all great writers and vocalists.

Brown is now gearing up to come back to Bend for an EP release party in his hometown. Many of his family and friends already have tickets.

“I’m honestly way more nervous [for Bend] than for a show that’s probably going to be a little bit bigger in North Carolina – because I know I’m going to know everyone in the crowd,” Brown tells me. “It’s going to be scary, but I think as usual, like, when I’d do open mics, once I get into the first song it’s just fun from there. I’m excited to finally, like, perform my own songs that I’ve written.”

Even with his new residence, Brown says he tries to come back to Bend as often as he can, saying surfing at the Whitewater park and cliff jumping at Steelhead Falls are some of his favorite activities here. Now that school’s out, Brown says he plans to make Bend more of the home station—at least for the summer.

“When I’m not doing school or work, I’m just sitting here wishing I was in Bend,” Brown says. “I think living in LA has given me a different appreciation for my hometown and how crazy beautiful it is.”

A

ustin Brown loves Bend. While he spends a lot of time in L.A. now, chasing his passions, his hometown and state remain special to him. This much is reflected in his music.

“I think just the whole culture—in Bend especially—Oregon in general, is just very laid back. It’s just relaxing, carefree. You do your work, but it’s mostly about having fun,” says Brown.

“I think that’s influenced my music a lot. I try not to be so harsh, and you’ve gotta look on the bright side of things.”

While Brown now has a promising shot at a career in music, most of his early years involved an unknown problem with his hearing. Ever the music lover, that didn’t stop him from humming along or trying to sing to any song on the radio (much to his siblings’ dismay).

Through a parent-teacher conference, the family discovered Brown had a hearing issue; later learning that the tubes in his ears weren’t fully opened. Brown had to get surgery, with what turned out to be a very successful outcome.

“I came out of the surgery and my mom was checking in as I was just waking up.

They were whispering I guess, but I was, like, ‘why are you guys yelling right now?’”

Brown, whose stage name is AUSTN, released “Chapter 1: In Betweenin’” May 17. This marks the young singer’s first full-length project. Aside from three early singles, it could very well be the first stepping stone in a successful career.

“It feels pretty good. As you might know I don’t have a lot of music out, so it’s pretty cool to put out a good

he National Reserve possesses a brand of rock, country and soul that is moving and powerful in its vast sound. While the group has seen a variety of member changes over the years, it seems that in the current lineup they have found a completeness that probably won’t change anytime soon.

When listening to The National Reserve, you’re almost certain to fall in love with the band’s crisp instrumentation and the rasp in Sean Walsh’s voice. As someone who has seen them

perform live before, I can confidently say that as a group these guys really know how to bring it on stage and will deliver with a killer performance.

TAG THE FUN #BiteOfBend #TopChef

Gary grew up on an 80-acre cattle ranch in Northern California. At the age of 18 he was lucky enough to get offered an apprenticeship under Mark Sullivan at The Village Pub in Woodside, CA where he worked for trade until he sharpened his skills to be hired on the line. He then spent the next decade cooking for some of the most prestigious restaurants in the San Francisco Bay Area until he eventually became an executive chef. While vacationing in Bend, the town with 1000 trails and great beer, he fell instantly in love and decided to make the move to Bend.

Lilly Owen | Exec. Chef, Boxwood Kitchen & Supper Club Hailing from the Appalachian Mountains of Western North Carolina, with roots now set east of the Cascade Mountains in Bend, Boxwood Kitchen’s Lilly Owen is putting her mark on Bend’s culinary scene. She grew up in the south with deep rooted family food traditions, with Julia Child influencing her early childhood meals. Working her way through her career and across the country from Asherville to Salt Lake City to Berkeley, and now Bend, Lilly has never strayed from her passion for southern cooking, drawing inspiration from Chefs like Sean Brock and Edward Lee who have made southern cuisine relevant again, and techniques from Alice Waters and Judy Rodgers, 2 of her first and deepest professional idols.

With her comfort food inspired style, Lilly is helping to shape the food program at Boxwood Kitchen’s Supper Club in the Old Mill District as Chef de Cuisine.

Jon Hosler | Exec. Chef/Owner, The Porch Chef Jon Hosler started his career in Los Angeles and has been cooking in the industry for 20 years. Self taught, and he worked his way up through the kitchen. Dedicated to learning everything from his mentors, his work ethic led to holding the position of Sous Chef at Red Car Brewery, then on to Sous Chef at Petros—a Greek and Mediterranean fine dinning restaurant. Later, his career focused on consulting for a restaurant development company as well as TV and Movie craft service catering. Family and friends brought him to Oregon with

an opportunity to open his first restaurant, The Porch, 8 Years ago in Sisters. The Porch is a fun restaurant that provides a comfortable home-like setting to enjoy new and playful takes on comfort classics from the Pacific Northwest and across the globe. Over the years Chef/ Owner Jon Hosler and his team have used this global comfort theme to create classics from all styles of cooking with a modern twist.

Josh Podwils | Exec. Chef, Layluate Chef Josh Podwils found his passion for the culinary arts while in High School which lead him to attend Cascade Culinary Institute where his passion continued to grow. He has been in the restaurant industry for over 20 years and has brought his own twists and signature dishes to different restaurants in Bend, OR. Throughout the years he has worked at many well-known restaurants here in Central Oregon and has been Executive Chef at Victorian Cafe and Brother Jon’s Alehouse. He was also featured on the first episode of All Things Food showcasing his delicious squid ink pasta. Chef Josh Podwils always wants to go above and beyond with food and encourage others to try new things so in the spring of 2018 he started his own pop-up restaurant called Loyaute. He hopes to open a brick and mortar restaurant that brings Michelin quality food and service and to step towards that goal, Loyaute pop-up dinners feature six-course, Frenchinspired dishes with wine pairings every month at different local restaurants.

Jackson “Rooster” Higdon | Exec. Chef, Riff Taproom Jackson “Rooster” Higdon is a unicorn — a true Bend, Oregon native; he’s been molded and shaped by this mountain town’s emerging culinary scene. Rooster has been a part of Bend’s culinary community for 14 years. At the age of 15, he started his first kitchen job working at Scanlon’s (now Bistro 28). His education was earned from the school of nicked digits and sizzled forearms — slowly working his way up from pantry, to prep, to grill, to head sauté. From there he was cranking out massive volumes and pubhouse burgers as a part of the first kitchen team at 10 Barrel’s original Pub on Galveston Ave. This quick path and rapid learning paved a way to become the Executive Chef (and first employee) at Crux Fermentation Project — an opportunity where he could grow creatively and expand his skills. After six years at Crux, he spent last summer putting together a food cart operation for 21st Amendment Brewery’s tasting room in San Leandro, California. And now, Jackson resides as the Head Chef at Riff Cold Brewed Coffee’s new craft food and beverage taproom. You can find him sipping a “Paint The Town” while working on his next new American food item.

Indiana, “The Region” outside Chicago. At the age of 14, he started working in his

Adopting his family’s strong work ethic, Berg worked multiple restaurant jobs at a time, honing his craft. He traveled and cooked all over the West Coast for six years, before settling down in Oregon.

His determination to work for Deschutes Brewery brought him to Bend, and — one year later — he was hired. Berg, having held many titles at Deschutes Brewery over the past 13 years, is now the executive chef.

As a past judge, Matt has found that often the difference between winning and losing this competition comes down to properly flavoring a dish to make it stand out.

LIVE MUSIC ON THE

MUSIC STAGE FRIDAY, SATURDAY & SUNDAY

Hungry for some incredible tunes, too? Whether you’re dancing or shoegazing, you’ll find some sounds to positively love. We have more than a dozen acts lined up to perform on Minnesota Avenue’s Music Stage.

Country. Pop. Rock. Folk. Swing.

Alternative. And lots more.

Nationally known performers mixed in with some dazzling new local bands. The Bend Premier Real Estate Bite of Bend bash is easily one of the biggest free music events of the summer!

SATURDAY HEADLINER

LOWDOWN BRASS BAND

FRIDAY, JUNE 14 Circle of Willis - 5:30pm Circle of Willis is a rock-fueled, pop-centric, jazz-tinged, blues-infused agent of auditory ecstasy. The band delivers eclectic, original tunes crafted by four musicians with influences from The Beatles to Nirvana, Pink Floyd to Cake and many genres in between.

The Hawthorne Roots – 7pm The Hawthorne Roots are a 4-time award winning, sister led rock band from Bozeman, Montana. The group consistently brings a soulful and energetic performance to the stage, every lyric sung with passion and authenticity. Their music draws inspiration from Fleetwood Mac, Heart, and Sheryl Crow.

Eagle Eyes – 8:30pm Eagle Eyes brings a great attention to detail as they cover a variety of songs from the Eagles’ illustrious career. Hailing from Vancouver Island, B.C., these guys are a must see for all Eagles fans!

BITE OF BEND GUIDE 2019 / 11

SATURDAY, JUNE 15 Notables Swing Band – Noon

The Notables Swing Band brings back the “golden oldies” from the Big Band era when swing ruled the dance floors. Many of our band members remember those full sounds and infectious rhythms and in 2010 our band was formed to recreate this great music.

Brave New World – 1:30pm

Bend-based original music rooted in classic rock, blues, punk and grunge. Think Pearl Jam, Jason Isbell, The Clash love triangle. (With a Grateful Dead backline).

Notables Swing Band

Toast and Jam – 3:15pm

Toast and Jam is a root-sy Bend-based duo featuring Ben Delery and Jeff Miller on acoustic guitar and vocals. Occasionally they’ll shake things up with piano, harmonica, ukulele, djembe, a banjo or the full band — so be sure to check them out for what they have in store.

The Bond Brothers – 5pm

Brave New World

The Bond Brothers is one of Central Oregon’s best homegrown bands. Their reunion coming to the Bite of Bend in 2019 is going to rock the stage!

Darin Jones & The Last Men Standing – 6:45pm Let’s face it. Mainstream country music is a big machine that doesn’t stray far from its formula of committee driven, focus group developed artists all singing about the same things, in the same way. Born and raised in the greater Seattle, Washington area, frontman Darin Jones doesn’t pretend to have a stereotypical “Nashville” sound. While he spent time there and also in the Texas country scene, he’s proud of his roots and wants to embrace all that is Northwest country.

Toast and Jam

Lowdown Brass Band – 8:30pm

From Chicago, the Lowdown Brass Band (LDB) breaks the barrier between audience and performer with their live show, which features dynamic vocalists, hip-hop MCs, and body movement that gets any wallflower up and on their feet. The The LDB has performed at some of the premier venues and festivals in Chicago, throughout the United States, and across the globe, including: The Metro, Double Door, Lincoln Hall, Schuba’s, House of Blues, Cubby Bear, The Promontory, Hideout, Andy's Jazz Club, Cliff Bell’s, Taste of Chicago, Wakarusa, Meijer Gardens, and the Cotai Jazz and Blues Festival.

Darin Jones & The Last men Standing

The Bond Brothers SUNDAY HEADLINER

IDLE POETS

SUNDAY, JUNE 16 Shady GroOove – Noon

JuJu Eyeball – 3pm

The music of Shady GroOove is a charismatic blend of musical genres from the worlds of rock, blues, funk, Americana, jam, jazz, and classical— conveyed through the melodic voicings of violin, keyboards and the rhythmic drive of bass and drums.

Bend, Oregon, has a Beatles cover band? They do now, luv. From She Loves You to She’s So Heavy, JuJu Eyeball takes an exciting and exacting look at The Beatles catalog. You’re likely to hear your favorite, and no one’s stopping you from dancing. Party on, Jojo!

Honey Don’t – 1:30pm

Bill Powers is a well-respected and awardwinning songwriter within and beyond the Colorado circuit. Shelley Gray is a skilled bass player and vocalist. They’ve been making music together for well over a decade and like a fine wine or exceptional bourbon, the best of their qualities have naturally distilled into a truly unique vibe with a certain sound and feel that has developed into a trademark.

Idle Poets – 4:30pm

Idle Poets takes jazz, blues, pop, soul, rock and world music and embraces each one individually, and still making them blend together seamlessly. Even their original songs are so diverse they have a tango included in their repertoire. Covers include an array of artists from Sting to Harry Connick Jr., Jimi Hendrix to Jamie Cullum, and Peter Gabriel to Rihanna – playing likely the songs you don’t already know.

CULTURE

This Fest is Lit

OSU-Cascades hosts a multi-day festival centered around the written word

By Nicole Vulcan

Submitted

Boucher about “Big Giant Floating Head,” but I also got to pair a beer with it for the festival’s Beer & Books event. I like my dark comedies with some strong ale, don’t you?

to my past, present and future self, and it was like really cheeky way of saying, you know memoir is… yeah, it’s written for people to read, but it’s ultimately for me—at least a way of dealing with the past—dealing with what had happened in my childhood and just putting it on the page so I could understand it better.

SW: The book reveals a lot of personal and sometimes painful information, but a lot of it was really humorous. How did you ride that line between the pain and the humor when you were writing?

LW: For me, I think I didn’t really know that I was funny until I did the MFA program at Columbia University and a professor said to me, ‘Actually, you know, this is actually funny,’ and I’m like, OK, maybe I’ll push this more. I thought, if I could make myself laugh, then the reader can get through it with me.

Source Weekly: Describe your book a bit.

Christopher Boucher: This book takes some risks—some new risks—for me, at least, because it’s a book that features a main character who shares my name. So, the main character of the book is a guy named Christopher Boucher and he goes through a number of trials and tribulations—many of which have to do with going through a divorce, and a troubled relationship, and trying to figure out where to go from there.

My work tends to be pretty surreal, so a lot of those trials and tribulations are strange things like, you walk out the door and see big giant floating heads in the sky or you compete in a failure competition.

an anti-social dog starting in her teens through adulthood is now being adapted for a TV series. It’s largely based in Portland, where she moved as a teen.

Source Weekly: Describe “Fetch” a bit.

Nicole Georges: It’s a 300-page, fully illustrated graphic memoir about the dog I got when I was 16, Beija, who I had until my 30s. I adopted her. She was the best dog.

I just had a lot of grief around Beija’s passing and I needed a way to let it out. And also, I realized if you look at the arc of your life, I realized how much she changed mine— having a dog from age 16 to 32 is a somebody

Christopher Boucher, author of “Big Giant Floating Head” Submitted

Wong, a Chinese Canadian from Vancouver, B.C., penned a memoir about her Chinese immigrant family and their pervasive superstitions—a book that’s sometimes horrifying, and often raucously funny.

Source Weekly: Describe the book a bit for readers.

Lindsay Wong: So, the book is a memoir about growing up in a dysfunctional family that believes in Chinese ghosts.

They don’t believe in mental illness, so they blame everything on Chinese ghosts. If someone gets sick, if someone fails their SATs or has a cold, they’ve been possessed by ghosts.

SW: Did you have a particular reader in mind when you were writing this?

LW: To be honest, I always say I wrote this book for myself and I dedicated it

Boucher lives in Massachusetts but comes to Central Oregon several times a year to instruct MFA students as part of OSU-Cascades’ program. His third book reads like a series of surreal vignettes, following the main character, Christopher Boucher, as he navigates the turbulence of divorce. Not only did I get to talk with

SW: I was curious about some of the metaphors in the book and there’s this story where Chris' heart goes on vacation and he gets a trout replacement heart, so I was going to ask why you chose a trout.

CB: Some of these were written as short stories, and then the novel sort of presented itself to me, and that one was actually written as a short story for a Richard Brautigan tribute anthology that never came out. I spent a fair amount of one summer a few summers ago really trying to work through that story and trying to figure out how to pay homage to Brautigan, without doing so in a way that felt really flat. So that was the one and only time that I would take, you know, a Brautigan article, if you will.

SW: What’s it like drawing yourself?

NG: I don’t know what it’s like, because I’ve been doing it since I was a little kid. I’ve always been a cartoonist and so I’ve been drawing myself and my life for a long, long time. I do try to make sure to show the less glamorous or less desirable parts of my own personality. I feel like if you end up the complete hero of your book—if you’re not a complicated character and make big mistakes, then there’s no reason for readers to believe you.

ven with its relatively small population, Central Oregon has something of an embarrassment of riches when it comes to concerts, events, restaurants—and also, cultural wealth of other forms. With events centered around writing and reading happening over a three-day span, the upcoming literary festival, “Rendezvous with Risk,” put on by Oregon State University-Cascades’ Master of Fine Arts in Creative Writing program—is just one example of this profusion. The festival includes author readings, art installations, workshops, a film screening—and in grand Central Oregon fashion, a mixer titled “Beer & Books,” where Deschutes Brewery beers are paired with books highlighted at the fest.

This weekend, I’ll sit down with three authors—including one who also serves as an instructor for that OSU-Cascades low-residency writing program—for a panel discussion that’s part of the fest.

We’ll talk about humor and risk and how the two intersect.

Before that though, the three authors share some tidbits about their books, their process and how to make things that aren’t typically funny—such as divorce or a dysfunctional childhood—into something that makes readers laugh out loud.

Magical Additions

At the Oregon Shakespeare Festival, staging shows outdoors brings an element of the unknown

By Nicole Vulcan Jenny Graham

I

t’s almost dark when a crow shoots across the sky, making its signature “caw” during a pause in the dialogue of “Macbeth.” As much as it endeavors to curate the audience experience, the Oregon Shakespeare Festival can’t control everything that happens in the Allen Elizabethan Theatre—the outdoor space which saw the opening of its summer season June 7. Beyond the endless rehearsing, the elaborate costuming and the careful choreographing of bodies on the stage, a lone crow darting across the darkening sky is just one of those magical additions.

Signifying both death and bad luck as well as intelligence and destiny, crows may be fitting visitors for almost any of Shakespeare’s tragedies—including “Macbeth”—though director José Luis Valenzuela doesn’t necessarily see the Scottish play as being all about tragedy. During a discussion with the director June 9, Valenzuela said he believes

the play is one of the greatest love stories in Shakespeare’s canon. Instead of being just a play that sees nearly everyone dead in the end, Valenzuela said at least some of his decisions were based on the notion of (to paraphrase), what would this character do in the name of great love?

In Valenzuela’s interpretation, they’d do almost anything, including (SPOILER) tearing the unborn child from the belly of frenemy Lady Macduff (played

by Michele Mais), in graphic detail on stage. It was brutal—but that’s what the director was going for.

“I wanted him (Macbeth, played by Danforth Comins) to be up there watching them kill Lady Macduff and not feel remorse about it,” Valenzuela said. “The idea is that even though he knows what it is—the pain of losing your child—he still does it. It’s all part of the love story and their relationship.” In this version of Macbeth, the play opens with what appears to

Alice in Wonderland Adjacent to the OSF complex is Lithia Park, which gives way to the Oredson Todd Woods and Siskiyou Mountain Park as you wend your way east-ish up the road.

A few miles in you’ll find the White Rabbit Trail—one of several loops and trails that bear names from Alice in Wonderland. If this isn’t a fitting prelude to a night watching the “Alice in Wonderland” musical in “The Lizzie”—the name insiders give the Allen—then I don’t know what is. Thank you, Ashland, for making the beginning tie to the end, like all great stories.

Watching more than one play in a weekend reveals something that adds to OSF’s magic: The actors you saw the night before may very well be playing quite-opposite characters the next night. Three plays are in rotation in The Lizzie this season; including “Macbeth,” “Alice” and “All’s Well That Ends Well.”

This run, Lady Macbeth (Amy Kim Waschke) morphs into both the angry Queen of Hearts and a doddering Dodo in “Alice,” demonstrating not only how hard these actors work, but how wide their range can be.

And while elaborate can be the name of the game for this company, one of the more memorable parts of this “Alice” is

ARTWATCH

All’s Well That Ends Well Some complain when Shakespeare is done with modern costumes and settings. Others want a change from all that Elizabethan flourish. With “All’s Well That Ends Well,” neither side wins; yet neither loses, as the costumes are both modern and Elizabethan.

Main character Helen (Royer Bockus) sports a Clash t-shirt along with a fluffy Elizabethan-style collar. Emo mom, the Countess of Rosillion (Vilma Silva), wears a Chanel-branded dress with a long cloak. The marriage somehow works, bringing together some of the humor and lightness of the modern world with the embellished silliness we get from Shakespeare’s comedies.

But is “All’s Well” a comedy or tragedy, or both? In its marriage of pop-culture and Elizabethan costumes, OSF is perhaps reminding us of our dual natures; that we can be both tragic and comedic, modern and traditional, all at the same time.

ArtisT Panel at Volcanic Pub Theater

Bend Creative Laureate continues to grow community

By Teafly Peterson

L

ocal artist and musician Jason Graham, aka MOsely WOtta, is almost halfway through his tenure as Bend’s inaugural Creative Laureate. For much of the past year, Graham’s been all about town, meeting with artists one on one, gathering them in groups to ask them about their experiences, trying to understand how best to bring the community together and continue to build it.

On Thursday, the fruits of his efforts will culminate in a collaboration with Derek Sitter of the Volcanic Theatre

the continued use of some simple props.

A set of hoops of different sizes serves as the tunnel Alice (Emily Ota) falls through. They come back later as puffs of the caterpillar’s smoke, and as the surface of water. “L” shaped forms serve as frames and horses, among other purposes—evidence that simple solutions can serve great purposes.

Creative Laureate Jason Graham hosts a panel of local artists at VTP Thursday.

Pub with “How the F**K did you make it work?,” a panel of artists talking about their profession and practices and just how exactly they make it work.

Panelists include Kim Cooper Findling, who owns and operates Dancing Moon Press. She’s also a successful

author, including recently co-authoring a teen mystery with her 14-year-old daughter, Libby. Also on the panel is Andrew Carew of Larry and his Flask, as well as other artists, and Graham and Sitter, who will facilitate the conversation.

“The base of this is to have an honest conversation about the artist’s experience,” says Graham, who feels there isn’t a lot of information about how artists live or make their livings, get published, book tours and work with venues. He hopes this conversation will help to answer those questions for artists.

Graham hopes this event will attract both people who identify as artists as well as those who don’t—an event he describes as “a meeting for everyone who desires to be creative.” And he hopes that this is the first in a series of similar events.

How the F**K did you make it work?

be the funeral of the child of Macbeth and Lady Macbeth (Amy Kim Waschke).

“What can drive a hero and his wife to lose their humanity in search of power?”

Valenzuela writes in the playbill, driving that point home with blood and violence.

Whether from a solo bird on the wing, or from this dark, epically violent play, expect darkly magical moments from OSF’s “Macbeth” this season.

happened a few years ago after requesting an interpreter in advance of her husband’s medical procedure. When they arrived at the hospital, they were paired with an interpreter that clearly was not qualified, said Frank. At one point, she asked Frank how to sign some words during the process and juggled interpreting for another patient at the same time.

“We later learned the interpreter was supposedly a volunteer who had been learning ASL at the local church—she had never received any formal training and was not certified,” Frank explained via email. After filing a complaint, Frank wrote, it hasn’t happened since.

“Probably because we each time are clear upfront on our expectations prior to appointments,” explained Frank. “We have to continue to educate each time— and yes, it’s tiring.”

That interpreter was assigned by Bridges to Communication, stated Frank, a local interpreting agency that oversees local interpreter assignments.

Like Frank, Burdsall believes there should be a national certification for ASL interpreters. Barriers to recruiting

more certified ASL interpreters to the area are the time and cost of certification, Frank wrote. The Registry of Interpreters for the Deaf certification requires continued education credits every four years, for example. Another, barrier, said Burdsall, is the low salary paid to ASL interpreters for their services in Central Oregon.

“Many of the interpreters in our community are primarily employed by the local school district and supplement their income by freelance interpreting in the evenings, on weekends or over the summer,” said Frank. “As a result, it’s difficult for deaf adults to find available interpreters for their doctor’s appointment midday.”

Burdsall said she’s campaigning to develop an interpreting program at OSU-Cascades, but currently, there’s no budget for it. She hopes that in five to 10 years, it may become reality. While Frank agrees that an interpreting program could make certification easier to attain for locals, she’d also like to see another interpreting agency move into Central Oregon to offer more access to certified and qualified interpreters.

By Keely Damara but if people don’t know, it can really hurt everyone involved—medical doctors as well—or school interpreters like Burdsall, she said.

Burdsall, a graduate of Gallaudet University—the only liberal arts college for the deaf in the world—helped launch the ASL class at Bend Senior High School with now-retired educator Kim Gunderson-Moore in 2006. Burdsall will take over teaching the ASL class at Ridgeview High School in Redmond next year.

Burdsall was recently summoned for jury duty and asked for an interpreter when she arrived. At first, court staff balked and said she should have arranged for an interpreter ahead of time, Burdsall said. But Burdsall says that’s not her job, and that the court should have a skilled interpreter on hand as a paid professional, just like other positions.

Tasked with finding a legally certified interpreter, Burdsall said, the court staff called an interpreter from Portland to come to Central Oregon. She was a skilled interpreter, Burdsall said.

While Burdsall was able to eventually cajole the court to meet her needs, not everyone in the deaf community is as lucky.

Cara Frank is the camp director at Camp Taloali, a summer camp for the deaf based in Stayton, Ore. Frank and her husband are deaf— and have both experienced unqualified interpreters first hand. One instance

“Many of the interpreters in our community are primarily employed by the local school district and supplement their income by freelance interpreting in the evenings, on weekends or over the summer.”

—CARA FRANK

As Central Oregon grows, ASL interpreter services are stretched thin end is growing exponentially in population, and while Deschutes County may be more urban than surrounding areas, Central Oregon is still predominantly rural—and lacking in some of the services afforded to bigger metro areas.

While some may lament the lack of dependable public transit, or lack of affordable housing in relation to the job market, another service is sorely lacking in Central Oregon, and directly affecting the deaf community: qualified and certified American Sign Language interpreters.

There isn’t a federally mandated licensing requirement, or exam, for ASL interpreters—and as a result, those regulations fall to individual states. The State of Oregon has no state licensing requirement for ASL interpreters—and as such, no requirement for organizations, employers or even interpreting agencies to hire certified interpreters. There are minimum requirements for educational and legal interpreters, but the lack of licensing requirements for other ASL interpreters often leads not only to uncertified, but also unqualified, interpreters being sent out on assignment for interpreting a variety of situations, says Monica Burdsall, a local educator who was born deaf as a result of Rubella.

Interpreters have different kinds of certifications for different kinds of services, Burdsall told me, with the help of interpreter Lauren Tolo. Doctors or lawyers must have knowledge of law terms to be able to interpret, Burdsall explained,

Cajun-inspired food truck joins 9th Street Village

Bite of Bend Cheat Sheet

The breaded and fried soft-shell Po’ Boy sandwich… worth waiting for.

W

alking up to the Southern Accent food truck, I’m eager to order the highly-anticipated soft-shell crab po’ boy sandwich. It’s a beautiful 70-degree evening and the sounds of friendly chatter and disc golf echo behind me. But to my dismay, they’ve sold out of seafood entirely. Owner and chef, John Morris, explains that his seafood was delivered to the wrong location.

Noting my crushing disappointment, he realizes that he has a small delivery that he can retrieve for me, if I’m willing to wait 20 minutes. True southern hospitality at its finest.

I grab an IPA from the neighbors, Bevel Craft Brewing, and peruse the art displays around 9th Street Village. Soon, I’m presented with a plate of breaded soft-shell crab, covered in a Cajun remoulade, sitting atop lettuce and tomato, all atop a French baguette.

“You have to enjoy the full experience,” Morris suggests, handing me a glass of sweet tea. Southern Accent opened in April 2018, parked in the Gorilla Growlers lot off of Empire, and beginning to frequent events around Oregon such as Fall Fest and WinterFest. The cart became a permanent fixture at 9th St. in May. “I wanted to provide a space where we could grow our fan base in a convenient location,” says Morris. And loyal they are. Customers flock to events and festivals to get their fix for Southern Accent’s fried shrimp po’ boys and jalapeño cornbread waffles.

All of the seafood dishes, including baskets of fried cod and Cajun fries, are sustainably sourced.

“I use domestic seafood due to the way the U.S. regulates their fishing techniques and their desire to preserve our oceans.

Sustainability and quality are my first priorities when selecting seafood,” Morris said.

Seafood isn’t the only specialty, either.

Fried alligator baskets and po’ boys are fixtures on the daily menu. Sourced from Florida, Morris explains that “in the South, alligator is as common of a sighting on a restaurant menu

as they are from your boat along the Delta.”

Of course, if you’re not feeling adventurous enough to try the reptilian delicacy, baskets and po’ boys are also offered with breaded chicken, line-caught Oregon cod, Gulf shrimp and locally-sourced braised pork.

Born in Mobile, Alabama, Morris gravitated toward a life in the culinary arts. When he wasn’t pier fishing and crabbing, he often found himself alongside his mother in the kitchen, learning southern cooking. Growing up in the Deep South, Cajun cuisine was a staple in the household. With a family of seven, Morris had plenty of practice in perfecting his southern techniques.

Creole culture, including its culinary and musical influences, is what inspires the menu at Southern Accent. Living only an hour outside of New Orleans, Morris found himself frequenting the area to get his fix for the food scene and lively atmosphere.

“Traveling to New Orleans so often instilled my desire to bring their rich culture and flavors with me wherever I went,” he says.

With 22 years of experience in the restaurant industry, Morris is now pursuing his dream, serving up his own food.

“The food truck movement has provided the tangibility—with low overhead—to make restaurant entrepreneurs capable of funding their own ideas without the brickand-mortar costs, along with the challenges of multiple partnerships,” he explains. “I saw the opportunity to run with my own concept and do it in a way that stayed true to the ways of the South. I was able to purchase a food cart and make Southern Accent a reality.”

Nancy runs Eat Drink Bend, which features cocktails and plates from local eateries, along with scouting restaurants, breweries and wineries to share stories from locally owned Central Oregon establishments. See her work at eatdrinkbend.com

The Bite of Bend happens this weekend— offering locals a chance to try bite-sized morsels from restaurants you might not yet have had a chance to sample, in addition to the Top Chef competition, a Bartenders’ Brawl, live music, craft vendors and much more.

Since the Source’s parent company puts on the event, we have some insider info.

You’ll find more than two dozen local restauranteurs offering bites, but here are a few that our spies tell us you should definitely have on your radar.

Riff Craft Food & Beverage Taproom is already making waves in its Box Factory location, and if you thought cold brew was the end of the line, we’re guessing the java-inspired bites they bring to The Bite, such as the Altered Melon and Prosciutto Skewer, are going to blow you away.

Foxtail Bakeshop, also located in the Box Factory, features some of the most delicious,

delicate and awe-inspiring sweets around— trouble is, some things are sold out before we can get to them. Let their bites at The Bite give us redemption. Just a sampling: Chocolate Sablee housemade Pecan Dolce Cookie Sandos, Lavender Shortbread Cookies, Animal Cookie Guava French Macarons.

Boxwood Kitchen has it goin’ on in their new brick-and-mortar in the Old Mill— but if you haven’t yet tried them, the bites they’ll feature at The Bite will make you want to. Something not to miss: The fried brussels sprouts.

AJ Fish & Chips—We don’t have a lot to go on here since this cart is brand-new, but we’re getting word their food is phenomenal.

Bartender Brawl!

Also part of the Bite of Bend: Don’t miss the Source Drinking Team at the Bartender Brawl, taking place Saturday, June 15 at noon at the Mixology Showcase.

Tumalo Creek Kayak & Canoe partners with Deschutes Brewery on water Tired of seeing plastic bottles left on and around local rivers—which are also harder to recycle these days—the team at Tumalo Creek Kayak & Canoe tells us they approached Deschutes Brewery about a new collaboration: Offering City of Bend drinking water, served in recyclable aluminum cans.

The cans are starting to circulate around Bend already, offering patrons the option to return the can to Deschutes Brewery for $1 off a purchase. Like other cans, users can also return the cans in exchange for 10 cents.

Water cans will debut at the Bite of Bend, sold for $1.

Trinity Belgian Tripel from Monkless.

M

onkless Brewing is far from new in Central Oregon, but it’s the only brewery currently specializing in Belgian-style beer. Now is a good time to learn (or re-learn) about Monkless, as they’ll soon have two locations! The owners just signed a lease to the “red building on the river,” downstream from the Old Mill, formerly leased by Craft Kitchen. There, they’ll bring their Brasserie concept, in addition to staying open at their current location on High Desert Lane (albeit with most likely shorter hours, the owners told the Source). I’m excited to see what they’ll bring to the area—but not wanting to wait to drink their beer again, I made a stop at their current taproom to have one of my favorite beers in Central Oregon, Trinity Belgian Tripel.

First, let’s talk about the basics of a Belgian beer. The utmost important ingredient in a Belgian beer is the yeast, bringing important flavors and setting it apart from other beer styles. Belgian yeast is quite expansive, but what we mostly see in the U.S. are beers that offer the flavors of bananas and clove.

Some yeast strains can be more or less “spicy,” depending on the strain. Trinity is a beautiful mix of banana and clove—straight forward and working well, with the ABV at 8.1 percent.

When you bring the glass to your mouth for that first drink, take a deep breath in. With Trinity, you get a lightly sweet banana aroma with a very slight touch of clove. It tempts the taste buds.

The first drink brings an explosion of coriander, providing a much-needed level of what can be perceived as citrus.

It finishes with a tang from the alcohol and coriander along the side of the tongue. You really need to take a few drinks and savor this beer to get the full flavor. The mouthfeel is medium-low bodied due to the ABV. The high carbonation balances out that mouthfeel to provide brightness. Really, coriander is the star of this beer. If you love it (as I do) then this beer is for you.

Trinity is an excellent example of a Belgian beer. The yeast plays a big role, only to complement the coriander. The tangy botanical qualities (along with the clove) bring a level of flavor balance that makes a beer lover smile. It drinks like a beer with a much-lower ABV because of its balance of flavors versus its alcohol burn. I believe the forwardness of the coriander and the highlight of the Belgian yeast make this balance possible. On my drinkability scale, I give Trinity a solid 3.5. I would give it a 5, but some beer drinkers might find the strength of the coriander overpowering.

Also, Belgian style beer isn’t for everybody—but what beer is?

I highly recommend anybody with an interest in beer (newbie or seasoned) make a pitstop at Monkless. If you haven’t tried a Belgian-style beer, this place will give you shining examples, so grab a taster tray and see what you think. At the very least, you’ll try something new—the very best part of being a craft beer enthusiast.

BEND’S NEWEST LUXURY SPA

ALADDIN: With Guy Ritchie in the director’s chair, here’s hoping he can add some of that “Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels” magic to a remake already lacking the brilliance of Robin Williams. Will Smith might be a good choice for the genie, but the special effects look downright ridiculous. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Redmond Cinema

MA: Octavia Spencer plays a seemingly friendly

AVENGERS: ENDGAME: After 11 years and

MARY MAGDALENE: A film that portrays Mary

22 movies, the Marvel Cinematic Universe as we’ve come to know it reaches its end. With the amount of hype leveled toward this movie, it’s kind of astounding that the film not only sticks the landing but manages to be an emotional powerhouse for anyone invested in this story. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

BOOKSMART: Easily one of the funniest

movies of the year so far, and a wonderful directorial debut from Olivia Wilde. Stands aside “Lady Bird” and “Eighth Grade” as a truly incisive take on the millennial coming-of-age story. An early contender for top 10 of the year.

Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

CARMINE STREET GUITARS: A mellow

documentary about the classic shop in Greenwich Village that has been a mainstay for some of the greatest guitar players of all time. A must see for guitar nerds but also fans of the classic NYC that disappears more with every year. Tin Pan Theater

DARK PHOENIX: Hey look, another adaptation

of the “Dark Phoenix Saga,” a much beloved comic arc from the 1980s. I wonder if they’ll get it right this time? It can’t be worse than “X-Men: The Last Stand,” can it? Oh, sweet summer child. It can always get worse…especially in Hollywood. See full review on p39. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House, Redmond Cinema.

GLORIA BELL: Julianne Moore gives one of her finest performances as a woman who finds love at a time where she was searching for anything but something serious. A surprising and heartfelt little movie. Odem Theater Pub GODZILLA: KING OF THE MONSTERS:

There’s a lot of really cool monster stuff in this new “Godzilla,” which is a direct sequel to 2014’s “Godzilla” and 2017’s “Kong: Skull Island,” but none of it adds up to a satisfying whole. Really, this movie only exists to set up next year’s “Godzilla vs. Kong” and, because I’m a man-child, I’m much more excited for that than I should be.

woman who invites a group of teenagers to come party in her basement, but there’s something dark and weird behind her lonely demeanor. Spencer finally gets a starring role she can sink her teeth into in a movie that looks like it might live up to her standards as an actress. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

Magdalene as an almost-revolutionary and fiercely dedicated apostle. For those not interested in the story, the film is worth watching just to see the always underrated Rooney Mara as Mary and a deeply committed Joaquin Phoenix as Jesus. Sisters Movie House

NON-FICTION: The new film by master filmmaker Olivier Assayas starring the greatest actress on planet Earth, Juliette Binoche. The story follows a writer who starts adding his real-life affairs to his fiction, which sounds like the most French plot ever plotted. So much pathos. Tin Pan Theater POKEMON DETECTIVE PIKACHU: I was a little

too old for the Pokemon boom back in the ‘90s, but “Detective Pikachu” looks adorable and also kinda surreal.

With Ryan Reynolds voicing the titular character, consider me a possible convert. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

ROCKETMAN: From the guy who directed half of “Bohemian Rhapsody” after that director got fired for being an even creepier version of Kevin Spacey, comes the story of Elton John done up like an old school movie musical. Taron Egerton is a fine actor, so John’s story does appear to be in good hands.

Hold me closer, Tony Danza. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House, Odem Theater Pub TEEN SPIRIT: While the film tells a tale we’ve seen many times before, the central performance from Elle Fanning is astounding in this look at what makes a modern Cinderella story.

Surprisingly delightful. Sisters Movie House

THE BIGGEST LITTLE FARM: A docu-

mentary following a couple with 200 acres right outside of Los Angeles as they try to create a sustainable farm. It’s a lovely story and manages to have some truly breathtaking nature cinematography—even though the couple managed to annoy me pretty much all the way through. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House

HOTEL MUMBAI: An intense and nail-biting recreation of the terrorist attack against the Taj hotel in Mumbai. Heart pounding and deeply unsettling, “Hotel Mumbai” is very tough to watch.

Odem Theater Pub

THE SECRET LIFE OF PETS 2: The last one was surprisingly sweet and funny and this one looks like it brings more of the same sense of charm. Kevin Hart as a mildly psychotic bunny rabbit is about the most inspired casting possible, although with a voice cast also including Patton Oswalt, Hannibal Burress and Jenny Slate, the film knows how to play funny. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX, Sisters Movie House, Redmond CInema, Odem Theater Pub.

JOHN WICK: CHAPTER 3 - Parabellum: Somehow, the “John Wick” franchise not only keeps getting more epic with its action and violence, but more intimate with Keanu Reeves’ portrayal of the damaged killer. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

THE TOMORROW MAN: Two senior citizens always preparing for the worst meet and fall in love. Sounds kinda “eh,” but when those two seniors are played by the irreplaceable John Lithgow and Blythe Danner, it’s a good idea to pay attention. Old Mill Stadium 16 & IMAX

First to Last SCREEN From "Dark Phoenix" tries to reignite the X-franchise

By Jared Rasic Photo courtesy of Fox

39 VOLUME 23 ISSUE 24 / JUNE 13, 2019 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

“T

he Dark Phoenix Saga� changed how I viewed comic books.

Released from January to October 1980 and written by Chris Claremont and John Byrne, “The Dark Phoenix Saga� showed me that not all comics would have happy endings.

Jean Grey, arguably the kindest and most empathetic X-Man, gets exposed to a solar flare which turns her into a being of limitless power and intellect.

Things go poorly.

What’s hilarious about this whole thing is that Fox already attempted to adapt the Dark Phoenix story into a film, with 2006’s pile of steaming garbage, “X-Men: The Last Stand.� It managed to get just about everything wrong it could, even though it had Wolverine and other characters we’d become invested in to play with.

So how does Fox course correct and tell the story properly in 2019? By hiring THE SAME PERSON who wrote “The Last Stand� to write and direct “Dark Phoenix.� This is why Fox can’t have nice things. Luckily, Simon Kinberg is a better director than he is a writer (he also wrote 2016’s fustercluck “X-Men: Apocalypse), but that’s not saying much.

The super-heroics in “Dark Phoenix� are fun, with some of the best action sequences of the entire franchise, but the problem lies in the fact that we don’t really care about these iterations of the characters. While James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender are still fully committed to their performances as Professor X and Magneto, Jennifer Lawrence, Jessica Chastain and Nicholas Hoult are just waiting to cash a check.

I hope they’re not looking at last week’s box office grosses.

Sophie Turner (Sansa from “Game of Thrones�) does her best as Jean Grey, but this is only her second time playing the role—which is a shame since the franchise has been around for almost two decades. There’s no investment in her becoming the Dark Phoenix and killing the characters we know and love since, arguably, without Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine, no one’s been around long enough for us to care.

Now that Fox is owned by Disney, X-Men will become a part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Hopefully, Marvel will recast all the characters from top to bottom, dump all of the nonsensical continuity and start throwing in established characters we already love to help revamp the X-Men. Imagine a space adventure starring Wolverine, Nightcrawler, Drax, Rocket and Captain Marvel or a time travel heist featuring Star Lord, Kitty Pryde, Gamora,

Venom and Thor. The possibilities are endless. Or check this out: A journey to the center of the Earth searching for Silver Surfer starring the Fantastic Four, Deadpool, Blade, Spider-Man, Black Widow and Shuri. Hire me, Disney. I got this.

OUTSIDE

This Land is Our Land

A local, Latinx-led group forms to encourage participation in the outdoors

By Caitlin Richmond

Borja has experienced this with his own parents. They support him but don’t entirely understand his passion for the outdoors. Borja says his mom still worries about him every time he does an outdoor activity.

“She thought I was going to get killed!” Borja says, laughing.

For the first Latino Outdoors outing, Borja led a group of about 20 adults and children along the Deschutes River Trail. It was a rainy Sunday—but that didn’t stop them, Borja said.

His short-term goal for Latino Outdoors is to meet people where they are at and get them comfortable and excited about going outside. He wants people to understand that they don’t need trekking poles or trail-specific shoes or lots of gear to get outside.

There are many barriers to getting Latinx people outside, Borja says, such as language barriers, socioeconomics, or being in a cultural climate that might not be friendly to non-white people. Borja also realizes that some barriers are generational, saying many Latinx kids aren’t being taken outside by their parents at a young age, so they miss out on an early intro.

Every outing through Latino Outdoors involves some sort of cultural activity, and there’s always a leader who speaks Spanish.

“I want people to have a sense of community and feel safe in the outdoors with Latino Outdoors so that they can go outside on their own,” he says. Latino Outdoors events are aimed at Latinx people, but everyone is welcome, Borja says. His long-term goal is to have

41 VOLUME 23 ISSUE 24 / JUNE 13, 2019 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

A

new partnership is aimed at opening up outdoor activities for people who might not otherwise feel confident taking part.

“I want to make the outdoors more inclusive and accessible for people who don’t have the tools to get out there, and for the Latinx community in general,” says Zavier (Zavi) Borja, who grew up in Madras. In his early 20s, when he moved to Bend, he became interested in outdoor activities like hiking and rock climbing. “I didn’t see Latinx representation when I would go into outdoor spaces,” he said— so he set out to change that.

Borja partnered with Latino Outdoors, a nationwide nonprofit with chapters all over the country, to start opening up outdoor activities for Latinx people in Central Oregon. The Central Oregon chapter held its first outing in April. Latino Outdoors is not the first organization to offer something like this—but one thing that set it apart is that the organization and all its chapters are Latinx-led.

In Bend, Borja says many of the people he’s working with don’t have fancy gear, may not be familiar with trails in the area and may not get outside much—for fun at least. Some may spend their time working outside, so the idea of also spending their free time outside seems strange. And for some—especially parents, the outdoors seems like a dangerous place.

“A lot of organizations try to push for diversity in the outdoors, but they go for too much,” Borja explains. “To a lot of Latinx people, Smith Rock seems like a dangerous place because all they hear about are people dying or people getting into accidents there.”

Zavier Borja

Everyone is welcome to join the next Latino Outdoors hike on June 22.

Latino Outdoors leaders in all the towns in Central Oregon, partly to cut down on transportation issues.

He also wants to host events that are aimed at different age groups, and to offer leadership opportunities for older kids to get involved and learn valuable skills.

Borja is committed to reminding Latinx people that outdoor spaces belong to them, too.

“I want to create a sense of stewardship over time, beyond just getting people outside,” Borja says. “The overall goal is recreation in all sectors, but

people have to buy in and have a sense of ownership for that to happen.”

The next Latino Outdoors event in Central Oregon will be a Tumalo Falls hike on June 22. Visit the Latino Outdoors Bend/Central Oregon Facebook page for more information.

Learning in the Garden

‘Garden for Every School’ initiative awards grants to local schools

By Keely Damara Keely Damara

school garden projects in Bend, Sisters, Sunriver and Prineville. Denise Rowcroft, program manager at The Environmental Center, said it doesn’t take a green thumb to make a learning garden a reality.

“I’m just learning right alongside the kids,” said Rowcroft. “So, I try to relay that to teachers, also, because some of them were also like, ‘oh, I want to start a school garden but just have a brown thumb or whatever’—and it’s like, well, you’re just learning right alongside your kids, and that’s kind of the main reason we call it a learning garden— because we’re all in this together and we’re figuring it out as we go.”

Crooked River Elementary School received a grant from The Environmental Center this spring, helping educators revive their school garden. After the school relocated in 2016, their greenhouse garden was displaced. The greenhouse sat empty for two years, said Crooked River Elementary teacher Karen Bryant, until they were able to secure funding to relocate it and hook up plumbing and electricity.

“It took us a long time to get it going again here at school,” said Bryant, who’s helping to revive the greenhouse garden. “So I’m hoping next year it will be even better.”

The Environmental Center grant helped the school buy tools for the children to work in the garden. Getting the garden going again was a community effort—the vice principal and a handful of teachers helped reconstruct the greenhouse at the new location, another group of educators built the tables and raised beds and their National Future Farmers of America youth organization rep donated seeds.

Jude Thomas, left, and Grace Warne help plant seeds in the Kansas Avenue Learning Garden June 5.

“On Monday, we had our ‘Seed to Plate’ celebration and we ate our salad— yeah, I even got some of them to taste a raspberry vinaigrette instead of the boring old ranch dressing,” said Bryant.

Rowcroft said when kids work in the learning garden and return time and again to see what they’ve grown, the whole experience offers an appreciation for where food comes from.

“I think that really does translate to their affinity for trying new foods,” said Rowcroft.

The Environmental Center is currently raising money for its next crop of grants, which they will fund through donations from the community and foundation grants. Grant applications are due by Nov. 19, and organizers will issue awards in mid-January 2020.

n a sunny afternoon in the Kansas Avenue Learning Garden at The Environmental Center in downtown Bend, an excited group of kindergarteners flits among the raised garden beds filled with veggies and flowers, each tasked with finding one thing that has changed since the last time they visited the garden.

Lindsey Nightingale teaches kindergarten at Amity Creek Elementary School. On this day, her students get to be “food heroes”—a title kids can earn by being brave enough to try veggies grown in the garden. Nearly every one of her students earned the moniker.

“The garden provides us with a variety of benefits, including everything from learning how to be out in the community, learning about caring for the 4 P’s of the garden (pollinators, plants, people and place),” said Nightingale. “An appreciation for being in the garden and being a “food hero” by trying new foods—and it’s just a whole lot of fun to get out of the building and extend our learning to the outdoors.”

In 2010, the team at The Environmental Center transformed a vacant lot next to its building into a learning garden, and in 2016, expanded the vision to help create outdoor classrooms at local schools with their “Garden For Every School” initiative. To meet this goal, the nonprofit has awarded $500 to $1,500 grants to schools to help them start or maintain their own gardens, as well as cultivating a local Garden Educator Network that offers gardening workshops.

That network is now comprised of 117 educators in Central Oregon.

This spring, The Environmental Center approved $10,000 in grant funding for nine

Curb Appeal

Where first impressions matter

Exterior paint and trim: Peeling and faded paint can be a huge turn-off, immediately sending the message of deferred maintenance to a buyer. A fresh coat of paint or a touch up of the exterior trim can make a world of difference. Think about choosing neutral colors that blend well with the landscape and style of the home.

Landscaping: Most people don’t find weed jungles, dirt piles and dead lawns appealing. A good clean up— trimming trees and shrubs, fertilizing and keeping the lawn maintained, adding pops of color with annual flowers and a fresh dressing of mulch or gravel will go a long way.

SOLD

$775,000

Create, inviting entry: Whether it be pavers, concrete or wood that leads to the front door, years of exposure can make things seem dirty or dingy. It’s amazing what grime can be removed with a good pressure-wash of pavers and concrete.

Where wood is concerned, a fresh coat of stain will liven up the wood and enhance the cleanliness appearance. A few potted plants or hanging baskets can add a welcoming, joyful pop of color and life.

Front door: This runs in line with creating an inviting entry. If a front door is looking dingy and faded, a new coat of stain or paint will liven it right up. Consider using a color that’s appealing to the masses and on par with the latest style trends. Stay away from off putting color choices that do not blend well with the overall look and feel of the exterior and neighborhood.

Exterior Lighting and house numbers: Changing the house numbers and exterior lighting fixtures are quick methods of modernizing the look of a home, bringing it more in line with the latest trends.

Remove unnecessary clutter: First thing first: Hide the trash cans! A lot of vehicles or “toys� in the driveway can be a turn-off and detract from the overall look of the property. When possible, find a place for those extra vehicles, boats and RVs.

Buyers are out in full force, searching for their dream homes. Meanwhile, sellers are eagerly awaiting offers.

As has become a common theme in my columns, I will say it again: You only have one chance at a first impression.

Curb appeal is crucial in making that first impression. It is in those few seconds that a buyer draws their opinion on the visual desirability, upkeep and attention to detail of a property. The exterior appeal is the beginning of the story to be told about a home. So again, it bolsters the reasoning that first impressions are everything when selling a home.

Here are some easy ways to enhance curb appeal prior to listing a home for sale:

SCIENCE ADVICE GODDESS The Pathogen Of Least Resistance

I live with my girlfriend, who’s really picky about how clean and tidy the house has to be. God forbid I put a bowl on the dish rack that isn’t perfectly immaculate or leave tiny bits of hair in the sink after I shave. She gets totally grossed out by small things that I don’t think are a big deal. If this stuff is ridiculous, should I really have to abide by her rules? And is this a woman thing?

Other girlfriends of mine have been like this, too.

— Annoyed It’s nice when your girlfriend always has your back—but not because she’s constantly two steps behind you with the wet mop.

Research consistently finds that women have far greater “disgust sensitivity” than men—meaning they have a stronger predisposition to experience disgust.

Disgust—like Little Pigs, Blind Mice, and Stooges—comes in three forms (per evolutionary psychologist Joshua Tybur): sexual, moral, and pathogen.

Sexual disgust leads a person to feel creeped out about having sex with evolutionarily disadvantageous partners (too old, too closely related, or sporting a big pustule that screams STD.) Moral disgust leads us to be all “Oh, yuck!” about people who violate moral standards. And finally, there’s the pathogen disgust your girlfriend’s expressing, which protects us from bacteria, viruses, parasites, and toxins by making us beat a retreat from sick people, dead bodies, spoiled food, and bodily fluids like mucus, spit, and poo.

Evolutionary psychologist Laith Al-Shawaf and his colleagues call women’s greater disgust sensitivity “puzzling in light of their well-documented immunological superiority.” Though we think of women as more physically fragile than men, they actually have “stronger immune responses,” which offer them “better protection than men from a variety of diseases” and “more vigorous defenses against bacteria, viruses, and… parasites.”

However, Al-Shawaf and his colleagues have some evolutionarily driven hypotheses—informed guesses—for why women are more easily grossed out: (a) Women’s bodies are basically the factories where both parents’ genes get passed on to the next generation. (b) Mothers are also more likely to transmit infections to children. (c) Women have likewise had a greater role in “keeping children away from pathogens and teaching them effective disease-avoidance principles.” (d)

Ancestral women had a greater role in food cleaning and prep.

The researchers had a couple of hypotheses about men, too—why men evolved to have lower levels of disgust: (a) It serves men to “to convey immune strength” to attract babes and to “facilitate short-term mating.” (Men’s lowered standards for hygiene, etc., mean a larger pool of potential sex partners! This can be taken too far, as in, on a seriously yuckeroo note, let’s just say it’s typically men, not women, who engage in necrophilia...which is to say, who look at a corpse and see a potential hookup.) (b) As the hunters and warriors of the species, men need lower levels of disAmy Alkon gust “related to blood, injury, and death” lest they be all “Shoot it with an arrow? But it’ll bleed, and I pass out at the sight of blood!”

As interesting as all of this speculation is, for purposes of relationship harmony, the reason your girlfriend is more easily disgusted doesn’t actually matter.

Likewise, whether what she wants you to do seems rational isn’t relevant, either— tempting as it might be to adjudicate this on scientific grounds, a la “Is a little encrusted whatever really going to kill us?”

Understanding this is important. A lot of unnecessary relationship conflict comes out of people thinking they need to stand up against beliefs by their partner that they find kind of Cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs. Often—assuming a partner’s beliefs are merely annoying, not endangering—a wiser approach is acting on the principle that the facts matter vastly less than the feelings behind them.

In your situation, for example, what counts is that you’re kind and respectful— meaning that you do your best to remember to clean up, especially in the bathroom and kitchen (major gross-out arenas)— simply because it’s important to your girlfriend. And when you forget -- which you’re sure to do—apologize, making sure to validate her feelings: “I know this matters to you...I’ll try to do better...” Hearing that you get where she’s coming from tells her something—that she doesn’t need to keep fighting to make you understand.

There’s that saying, “Would you rather be right or be happy?” The truth is, you can be both—silently laughing to yourself about the absurd contradictions of humanity: Just because we ladies go “Uh-huh...whatever...” about the gazillions of microscopic germs reportedly living on our smartphones doesn’t mean we can be all “No probski!” about the retirement community for bacteria that we picture on that food-globbed soup bowl you set on the dish rack.

ASTROLOGY By Rob Brezsny GEMINI (May 21-June 20): In the 1960s, Gem-

CANCER (June 21-July 22): My dear Cancerian, your soul is so rich and complicated, so many-splendored and mysterious, so fertile and generous. I’m amazed you can hold all the poignant marvels you contain. Isn’t it sometimes a struggle for you to avoid spilling over? Like a river at high tide during heavy rains? And yet every so often there come moments when you go blank; when your dense, luxuriant wonders go missing.

That’s OK! It’s all part of the Great Mystery. You need these fallow phases. And I suspect that the present time might be such a time. If so, here’s a fragment of a poem by Cecilia Woloch to temporarily use as your motto: “I have nothing to offer you now save my own wild emptiness.”

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): America’s premier eventologist is Leo-born Adrienne Sioux Koopersmith. When she was going through a hard time in 1991, she resolved to buoy her spirits by creating cheerful, splashy new holidays. Since then she has filled the calendar with over 1,900 new occasions to celebrate. What a perfect way to express her radiant Leo energy!

National Splurge Day on June 18 is one of Adrienne’s favorites: a time for revelers to be extra kind and generous to themselves.

That’s a happy coincidence, because my analysis of the astrological omens suggests that this is a perfect activity for you to emphasize during the coming weeks.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): “Let me keep my mind on what matters, which is my work, which is mostly standing still and learning to be astonished.” Virgo poet Mary Oliver made that statement. It was perfectly reasonable for her, given her occupation, although a similar declaration might sound outlandish coming from a non-poet.

Nonetheless, I’ll counsel you to inhabit that frame of mind at least part-time for the next two weeks. I think you’ll benefit in numerous ways from ingesting more than your minimum daily dose of beauty, wonder, enchantment, and astonishment.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Libran philosopher Michel Foucault articulated a unique definition of “criticism.” He said that it doesn’t dish out judgments or hand down sentences. Rather, it invigorates things by encouraging them, by identifying dormant potentials and hidden beauty. Paraphrasing and quoting Foucault, I’ll tell you that this alternate type of criticism ignites useful fires and sings to the grass as it grows. It looks for the lightning of possible storms, and coaxes codes from the sea foam. I hope you’ll practice this kind of “criticism” in the coming weeks, Libra—a criticism that doesn’t squelch enthusiasm and punish mistakes, but instead champions the life spirit and helps it ripen.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Help may be hovering nearby, but in an unrecognizable guise.

Rumpled but rich opportunities will appear at the peripheries, though you may not immediately recognize their value. A mess that you might prefer to avoid looking at could be harboring a very healthy kind of trouble. My advice to you, therefore, is to drop your expectations. Be receptive to possibilities that have not been on your radar. Be willing to learn lessons you have neglected or disdained in the past.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): As much as I love logic and champion rational thinking, I’m granting you a temporary exemption from their supremacy. To understand what’s transpiring in the coming weeks, and to respond with intelligence, you will have to transcend logic and reason. They will simply not be sufficient guides as you wrestle and dance with the Great Riddle that will be visiting. You will need to unleash the full power of your intuition. You must harness the wisdom of your body, and the information it reveals to you via physical sensations. You will benefit from remembering at least some of your nightly dreams, and inviting them to play on your consciousness throughout the day.

ini musician Brian Wilson began writing and recording bestselling songs with his band the Beach Boys. A seminal moment in his development happened while he was listening to his car radio in August 1963. A tune he had never heard before came on: “Be My Baby” by the Ronettes. Wilson was so excited he pulled over onto the shoulder of the road and stopped driving so he could devote his full attention to what he considered a shockingly beautiful work of art. “I started analyzing all the guitars, pianos, bass, drums, and percussion,” he told The New York Times. “Once I got all those learned, I knew how to produce records.” I suspect a pivotal moment like this could unfold for you in the coming weeks, Gemini. Be alert!

Oregon High Desert Classics

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): For the sake of your emotional and spiritual health, you may need to temporarily withdraw or retreat from one or more of your alliances. But I recommend that you don’t do anything drastic or dramatic. Refrain from harsh words and sudden breaks. For now, seal yourself away from influences that are stirring up confusion so you can concentrate on reconnecting with your own deepest truths. Once you’ve done that for a while, you’ll be primed to find helpful clues about where to go next in managing your alliances.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): I’ve got a list of do’s and don’t’s for you. Do play and have fun more than usual. But don’t indulge in naïve assumptions and infantile emotions that interfere with your ability to see the world as it really is. Do take aggressive action to heal any sense of abandonment you’re still carrying from the old days.

But don’t poison yourself with feelings of blame toward the people who abandoned you. Do unleash wild flights of fantasy and marvelous speculations about seemingly impossible futures that maybe aren’t so impossible. But don’t get so fixated on wild fantasies and marvelous speculations that you neglect to embrace the subtle joys that are actually available to you right now.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): “At times, so many memories trample my heart that it becomes impossible to know just what I’m feeling and why,” writes Piscean poet Mark Nepo. While that experience is familiar to everyone, it’s especially common for you Pisceans. That’s the bad news. But here’s the good news: in the coming weeks, your heart is unlikely to be trampled by your memories.

Hence, you will have an excellent chance to know exactly what you’re feeling and why. The weight of the past will at least partially dissolve and you’ll be freer than usual to understand what’s true for you right now, without having to sort through confusing signals about who you used to be.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): We may not have to travel to other planets to find alien life. Instead of launching expensive missions to other planets, we could look for exotic creatures here on earth.

Astrobiologist Mary Beth Wilhelm is doing just that. Her search has taken her to Chile’s Atacama Desert, whose terrain has resemblances to Mars.

She’s looking for organisms like those that might have once thrived on the Red Planet. In accordance with astrological omens, I invite you to use this idea as a metaphor for your own life. Consider the possibility that you’ve been looking far and wide for an answer or resource that is actually close at hand.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Philosopher Martin Buber believed that some stories have the power to heal. That’s why he said we should actively seek out stories that have the power to heal.

Buber’s disabled grandfather once told Buber a story about an adored teacher who loved to dance.

As the grandfather told the story, he got so excited that he rose from his chair to imitate the teacher, and suddenly began to hop and dance around in the way his teacher did. From that time on, the grandfather was cured of his disability. What I wish for you in the coming weeks is that you will find stories like that.

Legislating Morality Through Land Use County Commission witnesses a festering fissure WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / JUNE 13, 2019 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

50

By Jeremy Dickman

A

fter five months of watching his co-Commissioners scour all marijuana land-use and site-plan applications for potential frailties, Deschutes County Commissioner Tony DeBone seems to have had enough.

During a June 5 deliberation, the Commission was discussing an appeal of a previously-approved application for a marijuana dispensary in Tumalo.

DeBone all but scolded Commissioners Phil Henderson and Patti Adair for their clear anti-marijuana agenda.

“If it’s the intention of the two other commissioners to look for reason to deny [this application], I’m not gonna have much more to say. I don’t know that I can participate.”

DeBone’s comment left Henderson and Adair in shocked silence for several seconds, before DeBone continued. “It’s pretty black and white. This is land use. This is a reasonable application. It’s been approved. If there’s something that sticks out that doesn’t jive with the community—not moral objections of marijuana—but the community, and land use, that’s different than looking for any little thing.”

The “moral objection” line seemed to lodge itself in Henderson’s craw. Henderson even referenced a prior Source Weekly article that he says accused the Board of motivating their land-use decisions with morality judgments.

“I take objection to that,” Henderson said. “This isn’t a morality issue to me.” Henderson went on to insist that his scrutiny of applications is merely an effort to make sure people are following the rules closely.

Prior to this kerfuffle, DeBone and Henderson had engaged in a spirited back-and-forth in discussing whether the dispensary should be allowed to deliver marijuana products outside of its “surrounding area” in the Tumalo Commercial District. A rather vague Deschutes County Code has little to say about what “surrounding area” means, which Henderson interpreted to mean “something less than the county as a whole.”

Debone demurred: “If I was going to deliver pressure treated-wooden poles, I wouldn’t want to be told I can’t deliver more than 5 or 10 miles to a location, if I have a customer willing to pay,” he said. DeBone’s analogy seemed a clear attempt to appeal to Henderson’s background in home construction.

Later, Henderson weighed in against the idea of allowing a “delivery” use for the retail store and alleged that the delivery aspect of the dispensary’s service shouldn’t be considered as merely an ancillary activity to the “retail” usage the applicants were seeking. (The Oregon Liquor Control Commission

allows for retail applicants to endorse their license with delivery privileges under the “retail” umbrella.)

It was the delivery discussion that sparked DeBone’s showstopping remark about the Commission’s apparent bias against marijuana.

“We’re not very clear when we make these decisions,” DeBone added. “We’re going to have multiple layers of land-use decisions, and minute little variations and looking for reasons to deny. Maybe there’s a bigger picture here about marijuana and the rural county.”

“There is,” said Henderson, apparently abandoning his case that he’s not motivated by a morality position.

Adair, also seemingly in a hurry to confirm DeBone’s suspicion, dove straight in: “Actually, the vote of the people in the rural county was not for it. The rural county are the ones having the impact from it.”

“Oh yeah, I live in the rural county and I’ve got it in my backyard,” DeBone shot back. “I’ve been dealing with this for five years.”

Associate Planner Matthew Martin eventually spoke up, in a tone not unlike a child walking in on parents fighting. “If I may … I did not hear a resolution on the delivery issue.”

“I think we’re kind of on hold about that,” Henderson said.

Ultimately, the Board, in a 2-1 decision, deemed the application denied based on an access easement. Stay tuned for a Land Use Board of Appeals fight for this case, and many others, as the 2-1 schism on issues of marijuana becomes a recurring theme.

State to stop marijuana use from hindering a housing search A bill signed into law by Gov. Kate Brown June 6 prohibits landlords from discriminating against potential tenants with past marijuana convictions, or for medical marijuana use. Senate Bill 970 passed by a 17-9 vote, with Bend’s Sen. Tim Knopp (R-Bend) one of only two Senate Republicans to vote yes. The House passed the bill along party lines May 28.

Illinois: Another one bites the dust Illinois has become the 10th state to legalize adult-use cannabis (and only the second to do so through the legislative process, not ballot initiative). That law will take effect in 2020. Combined with Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, California, Oregon, Washington, Nevada, Hawaii, Alaska and Vermont, more than 92 million people now live in states where marijuana can be legally consumed for the pure joy of it.
