OPINION

Ask Not What Your Country Can Do for You….

I

t’s Election Day as we write this, and as much as we’d like to wake up Nov. 9 and know the results of every race in every corner of the United States, we know that elections don’t always work out like that. Absentee ballots take time to count. Conspiracy theories about voting integrity further complicate the process.

What we do know: That when we wake up the day after Election Day, we’ll all still live here. We’ll all still be tasked with working together, playing together and managing the daily details of life in modern society, together.

Our theme for our Elections Issue this year was “Us vs. Us.” It was an attempt to humanize each other amid what has certainly been a season of mudslinging, stretched truths and sometimes even outright lies about the people with whom we share a community. During this time of year, we spend a lot of time thinking about the outcomes of elections—and certainly, those outcomes can and do impact our lives in countless ways.

Still, sometimes we forget that politics is not the sum total of our lives.

This week, inside these pages, readers will also find the Source Weekly’s annual Give Guide—an effort to elevate the many nonprofits doing the work that governments can’t or won’t do. These are the organizations working to impact the world, both inside the sphere of political strictures, but also outside them. When the political temperature gets overheated, it’s good to remember that there are other ways to impact the world and to see positive change.

An example from recent events: Last week a group of activists came to the Bend City Council, asking for a memorial for Barry Washington, the young man who was shot and killed following a barroom flirtation. Those activists want the City to sanction and/or pay for a memorial—a conversation brought up while a murder trial for his accused killer is ongoing. If we can wrap our heads around the fact that governments are not the be-all, endall of our lives, then what’s stopping a group of people from fundraising and memorializing that shooting victim themselves? Perhaps this Council will find that effort warranted—when the trial is over, of course—but the point is, not all efforts have to begin or end with our governments.

We can and should hold our elected officials to a standard. We should expect them, as the people voters tasked with a job, to do that job. And, we should also be able to hold an opposite thought in our minds: That we, too, possess ways to impact the world and to be the change—to be individuals committed to our own forms of public service, and not to expect everything to be done by everyone else.

If there’s a better quote to end this with than the one by John F. Kennedy from his 1961 inaugural address, we can’t think of it: “Ask not what your country can do for you – ask what you can do for your country.”

O SAUL OR ABIMELECH

—Kimball Shinkoskey

MEDICARE “DIS-ADVANTAGE” PLANS Why are private insurance companies spending millions of dollars on clever/ seductive ads for “Medicare” Advantage Plans (APs)? Answer: Obscene profits – it’s the most lucrative niche of the insurance market!

Traditional-Medicare pays 80% of all medically necessary procedures from almost all doctors/hospitals anywhere in the country. Strictly regulated Medigap insurance can be purchased to cover most/all of the remaining 20%. CMS direct-pays providers for services—no advertising/no middleman/no networks!

Patients have no pre-approvals/no denials/no hidden costs/no hassles/no worries!

APs: Bush’s 2003 Republican Congress passed a bill to start privatizing Medicare—enter APs—greedy middlemen. Predatory/private/for-profit insurance companies are NOT Traditional-Medicare and NOT bound by the same coverage-protections/guardrails.

The two dirty-little-secrets about how APs profit which allow them to offer perks (Dental/Vision/etc.) as a marketing ploy: 1). APs are guaranteed payments based on member risk-scores, whether or not people get sick or receive care. Companies exaggerate conditions/ codes to increase risk-scores producing reimbursements that are above the cost of delivering care. 2). Members are subject to pre-approvals and are routinely denied care. Most remain oblivious to the dis-advantages until they age and/or become sicker when they’re denied care, go out-of-network and/or incur hidden costs.

Federal agencies report that APs are systematically draining the Medicare Trust Fund. Audits prove overpayments and hundreds of BILLIONS of dollars in private-insurance profits. The DOJ is currently scrutinizing some APs for fraud and over-charging. Investigators also found evidence of widespread/ persistent problems with inappropriate denials of care (tens of millions annually). Mayo Clinic now won’t accept APs and most don’t include any National Cancer Institutes.

It’s unacceptable that APs are gutting the Medicare Trust Fund for everyone while also having the unregulated power to deny health care for their members— both solely for profit!

RE: INFLATION AND CORPORATE GREED LETTERS, 11/3 A letter in the Nov. 3 Source stated: “High inflation is stated as a flaw of current administration policies. A closer inspection of factors influencing inflation presents an alternative culprit— massive corporate profits.” The letter writer overlooks the fact that our current administration is one in which we should expect corporations to run rampant, given that President Biden hails from the most corporate friendly state in the nation, Delaware, and that he rose to power facilitating corporate predation and venality. Delaware has more corporations than voters. Incorporation fees constitute the second largest share of the state’s revenue. Corporations set up holding companies in the state to avoid paying higher taxes in other states and to take advantage of pro-corporate regulations. With Biden as senator, Delaware established banking laws that uncapped usury fees. He backed the Riegle-Neal Interstate Banking and Branching Efficiency Act, which repealed regulations set in place after the Great Depression and paved the way for the financial crash of 2008. And he served as Vice

President during the Obama administration, when culprits for the 2008 crash received taxpayer-funded bailouts instead of prison terms, and when Obama named virtually his entire cabinet based on suggestions given to him

by Citigroup, itself a massive recipient of Obama bailouts. But please don’t take this information as an endorsement of any Republican, a party that bears even greater responsibility for the state of our plutocratic kleptocracy.

There is a famous moment in time in the Bible when the people of Moses decided to turn away from democracy to embrace kingship. The so-called Hebrew republic became a monarchy and still existed for a few hundred years after the people chose Saul as their first king.

However, prophets popped up all over the countryside to remind them of the mistake they had made and of the inevitability of the nation’s demise.

America will be remembered in the constitutional history books of the future as having made that decision in 2016 when it chose Donald Trump as their leader and committed to him no matter what his portly majesty decided to say or do.

But the Bible has another explanation for Donald Trump’s place in American history, one that holds out more hope for the nation. A Trump-like figure by the name of Abimelech succeeded in rubbing out opposing politicians to make himself king for a while well before Saul ever came to power.

The people of Israel figured out Abimelech’s duplicity and violence and sent him packing.

It is not entirely clear yet if Trump is Saul or Abimelech. My hope is with Abimelech, but my money will be betting on Saul. The American people don’t have much political savvy left in them these days at all.

Cranston On Trial WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / NOVEMBER 10, 2022 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

Police, bar staff and Ian Cranston’s fiancee testify during the first week of arguments in the long-anticipated trial over Cranston’s shooting and killing of Barry Washington

By Jack Harvel An earlier version of this story appeared Nov. 4 at bendsource.com.

T

he trial of Ian Cranston began Nov. 2 with attorneys selecting a 12-person jury that would decide whether Cranston was justified in the shooting of Barry Washington on Sept. 19, 2021, in downtown Bend. The shooting reached national news and sparked outrage over the charges of manslaughter rather than murder, Cranston being released from jail the same afternoon as the shooting and the perceived racial bias of the shooting and in the initial charges. Cranston is white and Washington is Black.

During jury selection the defense weeded out potential jurors who formed a negative opinion of Cranston from unfavorable media coverage, those who felt negatively toward carrying concealed firearms and those believing the presence of a white shooter and a Black casualty could influence their feelings to a degree that could impact their ruling.

The prosecution asked potential jurors how alcohol affects behavior, if some-

one who’s drunk gets the same protection under the law, if they own guns and how they use them and how jurors decide if someone is lying.

The following day the attorneys and judge convened for final motion, where the judge ruled on what evidence could be brought forward and what couldn’t.

Judge Beth Bagley decided that data taken from Washington’s cell phone was outside the scope of the warrant—an attempt to determine whether Cranston and Washington had ever been around each other prior to the night of Sept.

19. Bagley also sided with the defense in barring a comparison to other downtown incidents compiled by the Bend

Police Department and decided Washington couldn’t be called a “victim” until closing arguments.

During opening arguments prosecutor Michael Swart argued that Cranston’s pride was bruised when Washington punched him in the face twice after approaching his fiancee Allison Butler. Washington had approached Butler in a bar flirtatiously, telling Butler she’s beautiful, according to court documents, but left cordially after being informed that Butler was engaged. It’s unclear if Washington recognized Butler when he approached her again outside, but Cranston reportedly told him to “move along” and “she’s taken” before an argument escalated to profanity and then physical violence.

“After Barry Washington punched Ian Cranston twice in the face, Ian Cranston instantaneously took out his hand gun that he had holstered on his back and took it to his side, and then he waited for 30 seconds, a half a minute.

Thirty long seconds to take his revenge, to look for an opportunity to assuage his pride, to look for an opportunity to take his vengeance on Barry Washington and prove his manhood to his fiancee,” said Swart, the prosecutor.

Swart said Cranston’s actions were disproportionate and that there was no proof Washington was going to attack him a second time. The defense argued that Cranston had no means to defend against Washington, who was 6 inches taller than Cranston and 40 pounds heavier. The defense also alleges that Cranston only fired after Washington pushed Butler and turned toward Cranston with a raised fist.

“Ian Cranston never wanted to be in the situation he was put in that night.

When Mr. Cranston left his home, he didn’t know that before the night was over, he’d be attacked suddenly without warning by a man far stronger and more powerful than him,” said Kevin Sali, Cranston’s attorney.

The first four witnesses called in the case were Bend Police Department officers who responded to the call or conducted detective work on the case. Officers reported coming into a chaotic scene and finding Washington lying unconscious in a small pool of blood with an entry wound on his lower left abdomen and no exit wound. The earliest reports suggested it could have been a self-inflected wound, but officers were later made aware that there was a shooter.

regained consciousness. Police were made aware that Cranston was the shooter by an employee at The Capitol, the bar outside of which the shooting took place. At the time Cranston was assisting an officer in treating Washington’s wounds. Cranston applied pressure to Washington’s wounds 20 seconds after shooting him, but between then and the arrival of the police the bouncer at The Capitol had begun helping Washington and Cranston was standing nearby.

Several officers said they were surprised to learn that the shooter had stayed and administered aid on Washington and described Cranston as cordial and compliant. A doorman at The Capitol, however, considered Cranston, Butler and their friend Tyler Smith as seeming unaffected by the shooting.

“He didn’t seem as to have that much remorse, if that makes sense,” said Jarrett Yount, who was checking IDs at The Capitol. “None of them in the group were on their phones calling or anything. The other two friends were just kind of standing against the wall and had this kind of smirk on their face.”

The last witness called on Friday was Cranston’s fiancee, Allison Butler.

Just before Washington was shot, Butler started filming Washington while saying, “Say hello.” Washington pushed the phone away from him, which Butler said struck her in the face. The footage is one of four video excerpts used in the case. Prosecutors argue it was a deliberate provocation while the defense says it was meant to deter Washington from striking anyone else.

Prosecutors attempted to highlight inconsistencies in Butler’s story as told

on the stand, in the grand jury, during police interviews and in her cell phone footage, pointing to grand jury testimony where Butler said Cranston used profanity and that she said Washington hit her in the cell phone video, but said he pushed her during the grand jury indictment. The defense argued that when Washington pushed Butler’s phone it struck her face and could reasonably be called being hit. Defense attorneys also said Butler, who denies the filming was meant to provoke, wouldn’t intentionally goad someone who had just committed violence.

Bagley chastised both the prosecution and defense during the questioning of Butler, prompting her to dismiss the jury. Sali loudly objected to a line of questioning that he believed violated a court order that barred character evidence over a quote Butler delivered to the grand jury. Bagley told Sali to keep his objections brief, and told Swart to wrap up his questions.

“Mr. Sali, when you have an objection to make, you stand up and you make a brief real objection that I can identify by the evidence, code or whatever it is. Hearsay, backhanded evidence, relevance, whatever it is, anything beyond that is argumentative,” Bagley said. “Mr. Swart, this is a tortuous line of questioning. You need to get where you need to get faster and better and streamlined.”

Butler’s testimony drew a close to the first week of the trial that could continue until Nov. 18. The trial resumed on Tuesday, Nov. 8.

Home Prices Drop

October saw a drop in prices, number of sales and a growth of days on the market

By Jack Harvel edian home prices dropped in Bend by $45,000 in October, falling to the lowest level since the beginning of 2022, according to the Beacon Report. Median sales have been raising with some dips and plateaus since November 2019, when the median home price was $431,000 — in October it was $680,000.

Real estate in Bend is showing some signs of cooling off after a surge during the COVID-19 pandemic that saw higher prices, fewer days on the market and a higher number of sales. Median sale prices reached a peak in March, when the average home sold for $773,000.

July 2020 was the peak for home sales, when 318 homes were sold. In October that number was at 160, Courtesy Beacon Report

following trends of tampered sales during the winter.

Before COVID-19 homes were typically on the market for over three months before making a sale. The first year of widespread COVID, between April 2020 and April 2021, the average amount of time a home spent on the market was fewer than five days. The time spent on the market has been steadily increasing since May, and now homes typically are on the market for 28 days.

The market in Redmond is trending in the same direction, with median home sales down to $478,000 after a peak of $542,000 in August. Pre-pandemic in late 2019 and early 2020 the median home price in Redmond was in the low $300,000 range. Redmond also had a very low average day on the market over the past two years, with the average being between 4-10 days for most of 2020 and 2021. Last month the average amount of time on the market was 24 days.

Building permits in both Bend and Redmond were relatively low in October. Bend issued 37, while Redmond issued 16. Both Bend and Redmond permits peaked in April of 2021 with 90 permits issued in Bend and 62 issued in Redmond.

Housing prices dipped slightly, though a home in Bend is still much more expensive than they were pre-pandemic.

Criminal Charges Filed Against Former Timbers Director Three former youth soccer administrators are facing misdemeanor criminal charges over alleged tampering of files to create a rival club

By Jack Harvel

D

eschutes County District Attorney John Hummel filed third-degree criminal mischief charges against three former administrators of the Bend FC Timbers soccer club this month. The former executive director has been tied up in lawsuits since November 2021, when she was accused of embezzling over $80,000 through what the lawsuit claims was an improper profit-sharing agreement. In August Tara Bilanski filed a defamation suit against the BFCT and the board president that claimed $5.1 million in damages.

Jen Davin, a former coach and assistant director, and Emily Williams, a former accountant and bookkeeper, are also named in the suit. The state is alleging that Williams and Bilanski intentionally deleted hundreds of documents from BFCT’s Google drive with the intent to inconvenience the soccer club’s operations. The state also alleges they downloaded documents that would aid them in the creation of a competing club — now named Apex Soccer Club.

“Members of a local nonprofit organization focused on kids disagreed with the board of directors of the organization, and rather than channeling their ire into advocating for change, they unlawfully tampered and interfered

Back in pre-litigation times, Bend FC Timbers club members practice their craft.

with property of the organization,” Hummel said in a press release. “In addition to setting a bad example for the kids served by the organization, the actions of the suspects in this case violated the law.”

The documents were allegedly tampered with in the days following Bilanski’s firing. The day before Bilanski was fired, 17 coaches signed a letter indicating they were going to strike over discontent with the board of directors and the board’s attempts to “marginalize” Bilanski and John O’Sullivan, the director of coach development at the time.

All three defendants signed on to the work stoppage. In an interview with the Source Weekly last year, Bilanski denied she’d embezzled or used trade secrets.

In May Hummel announced that his office was investigating claims made in the civil embellishment suit.

Third-degree criminal mischief charges are a misdemeanor and would only result in a ticket if the defendants are convicted. Bilanski, Williams and Davin will appear in court on Dec. 29.

“Rather than channeling their ire into advocating for change, they unlawfully tampered and interfered with property of the organization.”

Al día siguiente los abogados y la juez convocaron una resolución final, en donde el juez dictaminó que pruebas se podían presentar y cuáles no. La juez Beth Bagley decidió que los datos tomados del celular de Washington estaban fuera del ámbito de la orden judicial, un intento para determinar si Cranston y Washington habían estado juntos antes de la noche del 19 de septiembre. Bagley también se puso del lado de la defensa al prohibir una comparación con otros incidentes compilados por el Departamento de Policía de Bend y decidió que Washington no podía ser llamado “víctima” hasta las últimas alegaciones.

Durante los argumentos de apertura, el procurador Michael Swart alegó que el orgullo de Cranston fue dañado cuando Washington le dió dos puñetazos en la cara después de acercarse a su prometida Allison Butler. Washington se había acercado a Butler en el bar para coquetearle, diciéndole a Butler que estaba hermosa, según los documentos del tribunal, pero se alejó cordialmente

El tiroteo llegó a las noticias nacionales y desató indignación por los cargos de homicidio involuntario en vez de asesinato y por el prejuicio racial percibido en el tiroteo y en los cargos iniciales, Cranston fue liberado de la carcel la misma tarde del tiroteo. Cranston es de raza blanca y Washington es de raza negra.

Durante la selección del jurado, la defensa eliminó a los jurados que fundaron una opinión negativa de Cranston debido a la cobertura desfavorable de los medios de comunicación, aquellos que estaban en contra de portar armas de fuego y aquellos que creen que la presencia de un tirador de raza blanca y uno de raza negra podría influir en sus sentimientos a un punto que podría afectar su veredicto.

Kôr Community Land Trust leverages donations and partnerships to help working families build generational wealth

By Nicole Vulcan

A

s the snow starts to fly and the wind picks up into its November-level bluster, lots is still going on at the construction site near 8th Street and Bennington Lane in Bend. Roofs and windows are already installed. Siding is nearly complete. Inside, some units are already covered with wallboard—a sure sign that the project is nearing completion, with five new homeowners soon to move in, finally realizing that most basic of American Dreams.

In the case of Crescita, the new fiveunit cottage cluster developed by Kôr Community Land Trust, the American Dream includes an energy efficient, net-zero home with one upstairs bedroom, two bathrooms and another flexible office/small bedroom on the ground floor, all for a fraction of the cost of the typical Bend new-construction home.

By leveraging community donations and the community land trust model— where the home belongs to the owner, but the land remains in the hands of the trust—people for whom homeownership has been out of reach will soon make these places their own.

“These homebuyers have been selected—the majority of them are local workforce,” said Jackie Keogh, Kôr’s executive director. Among the new homeowners at Crescita are public sector employees and a member of the local media, all earning somewhere between 60 and 120% of the Area Median Income—about $67,973 in Bend, according to the most recent U.S. Census data.

Kor Executive Director Jackie Keogh stands behind the company's mission of building diverse, affordable housing.

With the other projects in the pipeline, Keogh said the focus will be on homes that can accommodate bigger families or those desiring to live in multi-generational homes.

“We have seven homes being built in southeast Bend—all of them will be three bedrooms and net zero. We’ll be selecting homeowners for those in midyear of 2023, and they’ll be moving by the end of the year,” Keogh said. “Kôr’s

goal is not just building for the community but with the community, and what that really means is resident-driven design.”

Meanwhile, Kôr is working on the largest affordable homeownership community ever for the city of Bend, on Simpson Avenue, on Bend’s west side.

The location on the west side is a priority for Kôr, which prizes geographic diversity and the ability for homeowners to have the same access to quality

schools, walkable downtowns and other attractive amenities that any other homeowner would look for, Keogh said.

“This is a really new idea in the sense that, when folks go to purchase a home, they typically displace themselves because they have to move further outside of the city core, and with that displacement comes longer commutes to work, change in child care, change in school districts. Our idea is for that not to happen, so that’s why the Simpson site is so important to us,” Keogh said.

“Kôr is going to be building 37 affordable, single-family, two and three-bedroom homes there, next to Housing Works’ 59 units of Section 8 housing, with the idea that we will give preference to those Section 8 clients who are able to move into ownership—essentially opening up a rental spot and also helping a local resident with the Section 8 advance through what we call the continuum of affordable housing.”

With the launch of the Source Weekly’s Central Oregon Gives this week, donations given to Kôr between Nov. 9 and Dec. 31 will go to the construction of a Kôr home, with all donations to be matched by a local family to raise a total of at least $50,000. That $50,000 is something of a “magic number,” representing the gap between the cost to build each home and what the local workforce can currently afford. So in that sense, Kôr’s efforts are quite literally “building a community” in, for and with Bend.

Shepherd’s House After The Lighthouse

Shepherd’s House opened up its navigation center in June, and has been expanding services since.

Next stop: Redmond

hepherd’s House opened the Lighthouse Navigation Center in July, just four months after the City of Bend approved plans to convert its overnight shelter into a full-fledged 24-hour service center. The renovated shelter has more sleeping space, a lounge area for meals and meetings and a computer lab. About 100 people can stay during the nighttime, and during the day people can walk in and get connected to local services.

The Lighthouse is the latest complement to the suite of services Shepherd’s House offers. A project

called the Project S.H.A.R.E. van tours around Bend with basic supplies like food, clothes and toiletries to the tent communities around town.

“They don't really trust a lot of people, it's a very hostile environment. To build that trust back in the community that kind of also outcasts them, they don't really trust a lot of people. Project S.H.A.R.E. heads out there, and the job is just to be there, and just to be a resource for them, not trying to push or sell anything to them,” said Aaron Mitchel, communications

director at Shepherd’s House.

Sometimes the van is followed by the Shepherd’s House shower truck, which has four stops a week at areas with nearby homeless populations. In addition to outreach, Shepherd’s House also runs shelters besides the Navigation Center. On Nov. 15 Shepherd’s House will open its winter warming shelter in Redmond at the Mountain View Fellowship Church. It also has higher barrier shelters where residents must stay sober while living there. Drugs and alcohol aren’t allowed in the

GIVE FEATURE S.H.A.R.E van. Volunteers even help with some of the more administrative tasks like soliciting donations, working on the website or writing social media content.

“If you could think of it, we need it,” Mitchel said. “Every location department we have has room for volunteers,” Mitchel said.

In the future Shepherd’s House is hoping to grow its presence in Redmond.

Redmond’s homeless population was recorded at 127 in the 2022 Point In Time Count survey of unsheltered people.

“The idea is to kind of duplicate what we have going on and moving it to Redmond,” Mitchel said. “We're hoping by next year, we could really start making way for construction and have that operational.”

WSCAT is Making Strides The Warm Springs Community Action Team empowers community members and promotes community development

By Allie Noland

SCAT

Ph ot o

of W n 2001, Warm Springs leaders created a community sy rte u co development organization called the Warm Springs Community Action Team. The project was officially established as a nonprofit in 2008 and has been serving the Warm Springs community ever since.

WSCAT is putting successful, supported programs into action and empowering individuals living on the Warm Springs Indian Reservation.

Chris Watson is the executive director of WSCAT and has been with the nonprofit since 2013. When Watson joined the team, he was managing the Individual Development Account Program, which serves to assist people living with low incomes and low assets move toward financial independence and self-sufficiency. The program helps people achieve those goals by helping them accumulate savings, manage finances wisely and purchase long-term assets.

The IDA program is operated by Oregon Housing and Community Services and has grown to be the largest IDA program in all Indian country, according to Watson.

After determining which programs they qualify for, participants of the program are responsible for depositing savings into their accounts, and for each dollar deposited, the IDA program will match $5 to go toward purchasing an asset. Funding for this program comes from state, federal, and private funders. To receive the 5:1 matching in savings, participants must also attend financial skills courses and asset specific education.

“Participants gain not just financial capital to operate a business, but also intellectual capital to enable them to be really successful and have a fighting chance,” Watson said.

Many IDA program participants are looking to open and promote businesses.

Watson said land access makes it hard for people on the reservation to acquire brick-and-mortar locations. Almost all the land on the reservation is federal trust land, and it is difficult to acquire and maintain. Right now, there are only 12 brickand-mortar businesses on the Warm Springs reservation, according to Watson.

“It's a leasing system,” Waston said. “So, people get these long-term leases, but they actually don’t own the land on which their homes (or businesses) rest, which means they don't build that asset in the same way someone does in Madras or Redmond or Bend, towards their home.”

That’s where the idea for the Commissary Project came to life and into action.

Because of complications with geographic isolation, commercial codes and outside entities setting up businesses, WSCAT decided to construct a commissary building that is expected to be completed in 2025.

“Why does a nonprofit organization decide that we're going to build a business

Hacker Architects is Warm Springs Community Action Team’s architectural partner and created their design for the new building, expected to be completed in 2025.

incubator with retail and office space and a food cart pod and a commercial kitchen?” Watson said.

“It is because really, it's such a hard process for individuals.”

This project will provide a space for Warm Springs businesses to start, grow and thrive without the stress of finding a piece of land to start a brick-andmortar, according to Starla Green, tribal member and general manager for the project.

Green is involved in every piece of making the building a success, from the building of the structure to the interior design to the policy writing to all the operations of businesses entering the final project.

After WSCAT met with tribal leaders about what the community wanted out of this project, they decided the historic 5,000 square-foot historic wooden commissary structure should include a food cart pod, shared workspace, business office rentals, a full commercial kitchen, a coffee shop/deli, pop-up business space, public bathrooms, a salon and a gathering space.

Green is also the food cart manager/trainer for WSCAT. She founded, owns and manages a training program for the popular food cart in Warm Springs, the Twisted Teepee, which serves traditional foods from the region, including huckleberry butter, dried wild game, canned salmon dishes, fry bread and more. The cart will one day be a part of the commissary food cart pod.

Another area of focus for WSCAT is expanding its youth programs. Over 40% of the population on the Warm Springs reservation is under the age of 18, and it's a growing community, according to Watson.

For the past two years, WSCAT has held summer youth programs to provide a safe learning space for children and access to outside opportunities. Last year the program learned about financial skills, CPR training, cooking traditional foods and future careers. Participants also went to the Moda Center for Trail Blazers games, visited regional organic farms and attended the Oregon Association of Minority Entrepreneurs Conference where kids got to do their own micro business planning and pitches.

With more funding and planning, WSCAT expects to have more youth programs next year, according to Watson.

“We also have basically our recovery program. It's a clean, sober living environment. We have a men’s center that holds 30 people, 30 men, and that's what they do on Division Street. And we have a woman at Children's Center at this undisclosed location for safety,” Mitchel said. “Unfortunately, it only takes nine women and children total going through that program because that is in a house.”

Shepherd’s House’s has about 50 employees but it also depends on hundreds of volunteers to help out. Volunteers help around in the day-to-day operation by shuttling around the shower truck, prepping and serving meals or doling out basic goods from the Project

Show moved after activists called for the cancellation of a controversial country-rapper's local appearance

15

By Isaac Biehl

I

first learned about Adam Calhoun’s show in Bend, originally scheduled for Nov. 16 at the Midtown Ballroom before its cancellation, from a local artist. The artist, who wishes to remain anonymous, stated they were worried about the potential for hate speech and an aggressive crowd entering the Bend community.

For those who aren’t familiar, Adam Calhoun is a well-known country rapper. He’s a white man who has used the N-word in his music, along with many other racist stereotypes. He’s also spoken against the LGBTQIA+ community; most recently posting a TikTok video saying, “I don’t want to date a chick with a weenie,” he exclaims. “You guys are weird, not me!”

Or you can go back to a video from five years ago, on his own YouTube channel, where he makes fun of a 10-year-old child for putting on makeup.

There are plenty more examples of this throughout his music and social media.

He had shows canceled in 2019 for the same reasons that activists brought up in Bend.

Calhoun’s show originally gained more attention in a pair of Instagram and Facebook posts from the activist group, Central Oregon Peacekeepers, in which the organization called on 1988 Entertainment, the company that booked Calhoun, to cancel the show.

Calhoun himself responded to comments in defense of his music and the words he’s chosen to use.

“It’s damaging to the community for a few reasons. First and foremost, a white-passing individual is now coming here who is comfortable using the n-word. That enough is a massive issue,” said Luke Richter, president of

Nicole Vulcan

A poster for the Adam Calhoun show still appeared in the window of the Midtown Ballroom as of November 8, though 1988 Entertainment says the Bend show is canceled.

Central Oregon Peacekeepers. “The fact he wasn’t vetted properly is fairly mind blowing. I offered to vet any acts that 1988 wants to bring in the future for free but the owner did not show any interest.”

1988 Entertainment is run by John Davis, who told the Source Weekly he wasn’t fully aware of Calhoun’s lyrics or message, and that he doesn’t agree with those messages at all. But with the complications of contracts and Calhoun’s agency, he noted that canceling the show wasn’t going to be easy. Contracts are generally set up to protect the artist or band. Davis says he and 1988 could be Photo courtesy of Adam Calhoun via Instagram

losing roughly around $30,000, and Calhoun’s agency also threatened to sue.

“Unfortunately, we signed the contract before we got the information we would have liked to know about this artist and the song that has brought light to this,” Davis said in an email. “With canceling and taking a very heavy loss on this show we will likely have to close operations temporarily and/or lay off staff to cover the loss until we can recoup.”

Initially Davis said Calhoun offered a number of alternatives, including offering to donate the show’s profits to local BIPOC nonprofits, to take Richter of the Peacekeepers out to lunch to discuss his music, and to let the Peacekeepers set up booths on racism at the show. Richter told me they declined these offers due to safety reasons after receiving threats from people who planned to attend, warning Richter not to go near the show.

“I declined and each person I asked declined, due, once again, to the fact it’s just flat out not safe,” Richter said.

Ultimately, 1988 was able to move on from the Calhoun show. Davis says that regardless of the show being canceled, Calhoun will still “win” and get money for the show. Davis said this is something 1988 has never had to deal with, and points to the company’s history of bringing diverse acts to the community.

“I would argue we bring more BIPOC artists to Bend than any other company in Bend because we want to help the culture of Bend grow.” He added, “For what it’s worth from our team, f*ck racism! And we will never be working with Adam Calhoun or his agency again.”

However, it seems this saga isn’t fully over. Davis says a venue in Southern Oregon will now pick up Calhoun’s missed show. Calhoun was already scheduled to play in Medford the next day, and the Bend show still appeared on Calhoun’s tour page as of this writing.

Richter told the Source that Davis had threatened to sue the nonprofit for defamation, but Davis told the Source he would not be pursuing any legal action.

“I would argue we bring more BIPOC artists to Bend than any other company in Bend because we want to help the culture of Bend grow.”

Bend’s Growing Partner Dance Scene

T

he Bend social partner dance scene is growing. With so many new dance lesson events coming through the Source Weekly calendar, we thought it would be nice to do a little roundup of options out there.

“There's a lot of technique and connection that goes into social dances, because it's about lead and follow. You learn about connection so that you can dance with everybody in the club,” said Victoria Tolonen from Bend Dance.

Tolonen has been teaching dance in Bend since 2001, and said she is excited to see the recent growth.

Courtesty Kai Dunn

Victoria Tolonen is the dance instructor at Bend Dance. Tolonen dances with Tracy Perkins at The Capitol in Downtown Bend.

Bend Dance - Salsa and West Coast Swing Bend Dance has a four-week West Coast Swing Dance Class that takes place on Tuesdays from 6:30-7:30pm. West Coast swing is different from country swing. It is a modern dance style that is done to music that people are familiar with, like hip-hop, blues, top 40 or R&B. It’s smooth, luscious, sexy and versatile, according to Tolonen.

Bend Dance also has a four-week Beginning and Intermediate Salsa Dance series on Wednesdays from 6:30-7:30pm. Salsa is sexy, fast, sassy, fun and Latin.

Tolonen hosts Latin dance nights, as well.

Both four-week series are $50, and no dance partner is needed. Partners are rotated throughout the class, and it’s all ages.

Cross-Eyed Cricket Thursdays - Country Swing and Line Dancing The Cross-Eyed Cricket is a country-western themed bar that offers the community free choreographed line dancing and country swing dancing lessons on Thursday nights from 7-9pm. The Cross-Eyed Cricket invites people of all experience levels to its dance floor.

The type of dance rotates every other week between line and swing. After learning a dance routine, the second half of the night is dedicated to practicing and dancing in your boots.

Line dancing is a group dance that is a repeated sequence of steps and dancers are lined up in rows while performing the same steps in-sync. Country swing dancing is an energetic partner dance that is fast paced. On swing nights, it is suggested to bring a partner, but it isn’t required.

On Friday and Saturday nights, the Cross-Eyed Cricket plays the songs from the Thursday night dance lessons. This gives Thursday night attendees a chance to practice their moves and get the social dancing started.

More Social Dance in Bend Argentine Tango is taught weekly at 6:30pm on Wednesdays at the Sons of Norway Hall, located right off NW Galveston Ave. No partner is required for these classes, and the first class is free. The lessons are from 7-8pm, and free dancing follows until 9:30pm.

Tolonen from Bend Dance hosts a monthly West Coast Swing event at the Sons of Norway Hall on every 4th Saturday. Last month, there were cocktails, a food cart and over 70 attendees, Tolonen said.

“Dance classes are a healthy place to mingle and meet adventurous people who are getting out of their comfort zones,” Tolonen said.

To find more social partner dances and other dance opportunities, check the Source Weekly event calendar online and in-print.

Forbidden Sweet Potato Bowl

CHOW

By Donna Britt @donnabrittcooks This simple recipe calls for sweet potato, rich in vitamins A and C, as well as manganese and potassium. It also has avocado, a good fat source and Brussels sprouts, a cruciferous vegetable rich in vitamins and minerals that may help to lower inflammation in the body. Of course, you could substitute other veggies of your choice and swap out the black rice for another grain that you like better.

You can also change up the garnishes. For example, if you don’t like green onion, skip it. Add some chopped cilantro along with the basil and mint, perhaps, or squeeze some lemon on top if you don’t have a lime handy. It’s a versatile recipe ripe for personalization.

In my opinion, the sauce is what makes the dish, so I suggest following the recipe for that, at least initially.

Once you taste it for yourself, you can decide if you want more garlic or less sugar or whatever.

The beauty of this recipe is you can prep extra ingredients (dice two potatoes instead of one and trim 4 cups of Brussels, for example) and make a larger batch of rice and keep everything in the fridge until you’re ready to make a bowl or bowls.

Forbidden Sweet Potato Bowl

Photo courtesty Tambi Lane

Serves 1-2 -1 cup Forbidden rice (black rice), cooked and kept warm -2 teaspoons coconut oil -2 cups Brussels sprouts, trimmed and quartered -1 medium size sweet potato, diced -Pinch of sea salt -¼ cup chopped green onion -¼ cup torn basil -¼ cup torn mint leaves -1 avocado, pitted and diced -1 tablespoon black sesame seeds -Sriracha or other hot sauce, as desired -Lime slices Sauce -1 tablespoon tamari -2 small garlic cloves, minced -2 teaspoons fresh lime juice -2 teaspoons rice vinegar -1 tablespoon coconut sugar (or you can use regular sugar) -2 tablespoons water -Pinch of chili flakes, to taste

First, make the sauce by whisking together all the ingredients in a small bowl.

Set aside.

Heat the coconut oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the Brussels and sweet potato along with a pinch of salt. Sear the veggies in the pan for 2-3 minutes. Toss and continue cooking for another 7-10 minutes or until tender.

Remove from heat.

Place the cooked rice in a bowl. Top with the Brussels and sweet potato. Drizzle with the prepared sauce. Garnish with green onion, basil, mint and sesame seeds. Serve with Sriracha and lime slices.

Doing the Fall Cart Shuffle

Stock Up for Winter at Fill Your Pantry

I

ans of some of Bend’s favorite carts may find themselves doing the “cart shuffle” to find those good eats this fall. Several popular food carts have moved (or closed) in recent months, so here’s a little update.

The Podski has seen lots of changes in recent weeks, with The Tin Pig, beloved for its Nashville hot chicken and other chicken sandos, moving to Crux Fermentation Project. In its place is The Americana Truck, the burger food cart that left Spider City Brewing as of OCt. 29 and plans to open its “gold

truck” soon at The Podski. In Americana’s place at Spider City is Indodaddy Food Truck, an Indonesian fusion cart that plans to open Nov. 15. Also new at The Podski is Mother Shucker’s, now open and offering shucked and grilled oysters and other seafood.

And on the east side, this week saw the closure of Aina Kauai Style Grill, the Hawaiian food cart at Bevel Brewing that opened in January 2020 and won the Source Weekly’s Best Food Cart category in both 2021 and 2022. Owner Ian Vidinha has the business up for sale.

t’s the time of year we like to call soup season—and at one event coming up this weekend, locals can stock up on all the things that they’ll use for soup… like, all winter. The Central Oregon Fill Your Pantry event is now in its seventh year, allowing people to stock up bulk quantities of potatoes, onions, leeks, garlic and beans (all good for soup), along with other items such as apples, beets, winter squash and much more.

Think big for this “bulk farmers market”—get 20-pound bags of onions, 50-pound bags of potatoes and so on.

RING US! 541-BURGERS

Those who have SNAP benefits cards can use them at the market and, similar to the program at the Bend Farmers Market, can get “double up” food bucks to stretch their budgets even further.

This year’s Fill Your Pantry event happens Saturday, Nov. 12 from 11am to 3pm at the Oregon State University-Extension parking lot at the Deschutes County Fairgrounds. More info is available at centraloregonfillyourpantry.com.

e’re getting so close to that time of year when it’s easy to let our guard down and just go for it— meaning eating and drinking whatever we want whenever we want. There’s nothing wrong with that, of course, but for some of us, overindulging means we end up with unwanted extra weight and overall malaise.

I’m talking about the holidays and how it’s so easy to overdo it when it comes to food and beverages. Between the Thanksgiving pies and the Christmas fudge, the average person typically gains a pound or so during the season, but the effects of too much sugar and too much eating in general can bog down your system.

Before we go into food overload in the weeks to come, a nice healthy vegetable bowl might be just the ticket. This particular veggie bowl was shared with me a few years ago by a Bend friend who was gracious enough to be a guest on the food podcast I was hosting at the time (FoodLifePodcast/Stephanie’s Story). Her story was so inspiring and the recipes she shared with me were easy, delicious and full of wholesome ingredients. The veggie bowl was one of the best ones I had ever made at home.

Larger Than Life

In memory of Joe Leonardi, April 24, 1945 – September 20, 2022

By Ellen Waterston 29 Photo courtesy Anastacia Armstrong

Joe Leonardi could slap down a mean bass line and rock the world of anyone within earshot.

Look at your life All the seeds you’ve sown Your legacy The future All the dreams you’ve grown Your kids and grandkids Your community of friends All the songs we’ve sung Will never end We celebrate you Your life All you’ve given Your journey Is just beginning.

This month Jesaca and Anastacia, with the support of their siblings and children, are orchestrating what promises to be the Leonardi Party of all time to celebrate their father. It will be held on Sunday, Nov. 13 from 2 to 7 p.m. at The Belfry, 302 E. Main Ave, Sisters, Oregon. If you attend, keep your eye out for Joe. You can’t miss him. He’s larger than life.

T

he upcoming gathering on Nov. 13 won’t be the first time The Belfry in Sisters has staged a rockin’, Joe-inspired “Party for Leonardi.” Since the ‘70s, countless music venues throughout the region, as well as Joe Leonardi’s own geodesic dome home, have taken turns showcasing his impressive talent as songwriter, vocalist (think Van Morrison), bass player and guitarist. Whether accompanied by the fine sounds of his bands (Mixed Nuts, Stone Soup, JZ Band, Doc Ryan Band, Cuppa Joe), or alongside members of his showstopping musical family, Joe and company served up gourmet rock, blues, soul and folk. What’s different this time is that Joe, who died on Sept. 20, won’t be there. Won’t be at The Belfry. Won’t be taking the stage.

Hold on. That’s not entirely true. I mean, we’re talking Joe Leonardi, after all… shape shifter, time traveler that he is. He will be there in the song lyrics he wrote, in the music he composed, in the band members he inspired. He’ll be there in excerpts from the hundreds of videos Leonardi Media Arts created for regional nonprofits and businesses from 1996 until 2017. He will be there in Media Mania footage, an allarts happening that took place on the streets, rooftops and alleyways of downtown Bend and Sisters in the early 2000s. He will be there in the expressions of love from family, friends and the countless numbers of people he impacted.

Born in Brooklyn, New York (fuggetaboutit, he never lost the accent), Leonardi made his way to California in 1969, where he spent 15 years as founder and director of the media arts department at the Long Beach Museum of Art, establishing himself as a talented editor/producer in videography. It was also then when Leonardi became friends with the renowned scholar, scientist and philosopher, Buckminster Fuller, known for his popularization of the geodesic dome. Leonardi promised himself he’d build and live in one. But where?

In a 2017 Bulletin article, Leonardi recalled the skepticism expressed by his Los Angeles colleagues when, in 1984, he decided to move to Sisters, Oregon, in the ‘90s. To Sisters where? To do what? Video? Are you nuts? When he arrived, there were maybe three video artists in the region. But he had a sixth sense about what was ahead for Central Oregon and for his videography and music. Plus, he found 5 acres for his dream home. Leonardi was both artist and intuitive. The only age he ever admitted to was New. The geodesic dome wasn’t the only thing Fuller inspired in Leonardi. In thought and deed, Leonardi also embraced Fuller’s prescient realization of the need for environmental sustainability and his take on Synergetics, that every action should be for the benefit of all.

The year 2020 marked two decades of professional association and friendship between Leonardi and me, and was also the year COVID became a household word.

By then Parkinson’s had compromised his gait, robbed him of the ability to chord and strum his guitar, but his voice remained strong, his mind sharp, his outlook positive and his compassion for his fellow man unfailing. We didn’t cross paths or speak much, so when he called me that day I was surprised and delighted. …Hey Ellie girl, how about doin’ me a favor? What is it, Joe? Could you take me to the bank? I want to cash my COVID stimulus check. Sure! Happy to. And then after the bank, how about driving me around town to the homeless camps? The homeless camps? Yeah, I’m gonna distribute my stimulus money. Are you sure that’s what you want to do, Joe? Yeah. I’m sure.

And so we did. Some we encountered shook his hand, formally thanked him.

Some wept with gratitude. Others peered suspiciously from inside their shelter.

Leaning on his cane, Leonardi placed the money on the ground in front of their tent. This was vintage Joe Leonardi. There are hundreds of stories like it that those who knew him can recall. For him, giving you the shirt off his back was not a figure of speech. He believed preoccupation with lack, holding on too tight to wealth would result in dire poverty of spirit. As his daughter and singer/songwriter Anastacia Armstrong said of her father, “He…expected me to see the big picture through the lens of love without exception. He taught me to walk the path of love and compassion always.”

For Joe Leonardi, family (five children and four grandchildren) was the center and love was what centered family. He’d joke that X-mas was really Ex-mas, a chance to gather all the exes together. They often came. At his frequent jam sessions, he’d chant “Mangia, mangia,” invoking his Italian heritage as he urged his friends to the groaning board featuring a large serving bowl of his famous pasta, needed fuel for a night of playing music in Bucky, his dome home. As his youngest daughter, Jesaca Hatcher, once said, her father liked to feed people. And he surely did, in countless ways, literal and figurative.

Before he died Leonardi got to hear Anastacia sing “Renaissance Man,” the tribute she wrote to her father that captures the essence of this multidimensional man, the artist, the thinker, the father, the friend. Here’s an excerpt:

Problems SCREEN Champagne No one is safe in the "Triangle of Sadness"

By Jared Rasic

WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / NOVEMBER 10, 2022 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

H

ollywood has been making films about the gulf between the haves and the have-lesses since long before I was born, and it’s probably getting more difficult for filmmakers to mine anything new from the subject.

Considering that the gulf has only gotten larger as time goes on and that the tech boom has only exacerbated that divide, when a truly great writer finds something un-tapped and modern in the subject, it can almost feel like an entirely new genre.

Swedish writer/director Ruben Östlund is behind two of the finest deconstructions of class, art and humanity of the last decade with 2014’s “Force Majeure” and 2017’s “The Square,” so when his newest work, “Triangle of Sadness,” won the Palme d’Or (his second after “The Square”) at the 2022 Cannes Film Festival, I knew he had another masterwork on his hands. And while “Triangle” is quite great, it doesn’t reach the same surgically incisive levels as his earlier films.

The film is told in three parts, with the first introducing us to the two main characters, Carl (a fantastic Harris Dickinson) and Yaya (a revelatory Charlbi Dean, who sadly passed away in August), a pair of models who are dating mostly to increase their social media followers. We meet them right before they get into a flawlessly written fight in a boujee restaurant over gender roles and paying the check.

The second part takes Karl and Yaya on board a luxurious cruise ship (free

with their influencer bonafides), where they meet the drunken socialist captain of the ship (played by Woody Harrelson, clearly having the time of his life), a Reagan-obsessed Russian oligarch, an elderly British couple made wealthy by arms dealing and several harried employees of the cruise line.

The third section is on a deserted island, where only some of those characters have survived after a combination of sea sickness, pirates and stupidity has destroyed the ship. This chapter should have been the strongest of the three and it’s easily the weakest.

Those aren’t really spoilers, as the trailers show that much and more, plus the real fun of the film is getting to know the characters and then watching them slowly submit to things they can’t control with wealth or privilege. The metaphor of the super-rich being repulsive and awful and getting their comeuppance is pretty on the nose, but so hilariously and clinically observed that I can’t fault Östlund for his less-subtlethan-usual approach to roasting them.

“Triangle of Sadness” exists primarily as a comedy and some of its jokes are telegraphed in ways that the ultimate darkness of the third act struggles to reconcile with, even as it somehow manages to wring belly laughs between moments of genuinely disgusting imagery. Yes, the metaphor of an obscenely rich woman pounding champagne as she tries to calm her sea-sickness, only to projectile vomit it everywhere, is delicious, but doesn’t carry much more

depth than that.

There are moments in the film that had me laughing harder than anything I’ve seen all year, so I’m not sure why I don’t feel as in love with “Triangle” as I do with Östlund’s other work.

But expectations as high as mine really couldn’t have been reached. The bluntness of “Triangle” works as more of a primal scream of anger than it does as a blistering satire, and Östlund’s rage and disgust is visible in almost every frame.

There’s also an element of bread and circuses when decent-sized studios release a movie budgeted at over $15 million that skewers the wealth that

filmmakers and artists desperately need to get something made in the first place.

I think of how chewy the irony must have been at Cannes when the rich and beautiful sipped their champagne while the characters in “Triangle” violently eject it. Are we not entertained?

ARMAGEDDON TIME: James Gray has been one of our finest filmmakers for many years, but “Armageddon Time” might be the movie that finally brings him into the mainstream.

Time on the Slopes: What to Expect OUTSIDE First Winter is nearly upon us, which means it’s time for beginners to think about hitting the slopes for their first epic ski session

WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / NOVEMBER 10, 2022 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

s skiing hard to learn? As a long-time Bendite and avid skier, I get this question a lot. Like anything else, it takes practice; but with optimism, patience and a good teacher, you’ll be getting off the chairlift, conquering the hills and not falling on your face every five minutes – which is a win.

With opening days at the local mountains coming our way very soon, here are a few things to expect from your first ski outing.

1. You will fall, and then you will fall again.

After my first ski lesson, I cried and told my mom I never wanted to do that again.

Granted, I was about five years old, and naturally, I came back the next day. So yes, like riding a bike, learning to ice skate or doing any sport, you will fall, you will be sore and it will be hard. But just take it easy, don’t overdo it on the first day and you will be bound for the big hills in no time.

2. It's hard to get up, and it can be embarrassing.

Trust me, we have all been on the ground with snow in our goggles, our pants falling down and doing the wiggles to get up. When new skiers fall, the best thing to do is laugh it off. Whether skiing or snowboarding, there is no cute way to get up once your butt hits the ground. It's awkward to maneuver equipment around your body. You feel like the abominable snowman bundled up in all your gear, making it sometimes difficult to touch your toes. Take a deep breath and I promise, it will get easier.

3. Quality clothes keep out the cold.

When the novice skier or boarder does fall, the right attitude is to come up smiling and laughing.

New skiers don't have to go out and get the fanciest attire, but remember it's cold, and you will likely get wet. Ski clothes work best in layers. Start with the base layer that will keep you dry by wicking sweat away. Mid-layers should be a fleece or wool sweater to keep your body warm. The outer layer should be waterproof and windproof. Whatever you do, avoid cotton. Lastly, wear warm socks, waterproof gloves and eye protection to keep the sun, wind and snow out of your eyes.

4. Snow amateurs will get the mid-mountain munchies.

Skiing is a sport commonly associated with winter vacation and relaxation, but don't let all the après-ski fool you. It’s tiring, especially for beginners. Proper fuel will help you recover faster, stay hydrated and have plenty of energy to make it through the day. Essential ski snacks include protein bars, fruits, nuts, chocolate and my favorite, a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

5. Have fun, take breaks and ignore the seven-year-olds skiing circles around you.

Skiing is supposed to be fun! Get a friend to come to take lessons with you, and don't take things too seriously. There will be children who ski like professionals, and there will be 60-year-olds stepping on the slopes for the first time. Everyone is on their own journey, so keep your head up, keep that smile wide and enjoy the ride.

Both Bachelor and Hoodoo provide a wide variety of private and group options for new skiers. Mt. Bachelor's tentative opening date is Friday, Nov. 25, and lessons will be available until April 23. Bachelor’s most popular lesson option is the award-winning “Ride in 5,” which includes five days of lessons, rentals and tickets.

Hoodoo Ski and Ride School has an easy-to-use reservation system that requires you to sign up 24 hours in advance.

Here’s how it works: Show up, have fun and win prizes. These events are free and open to all ages. As soon as attendees enter the party, the energy is unmatched, according to Jen Davis, marketing director of Hoodoo Ski Area.

With upbeat music, constant giveaway games, trivia, dancing and sipping on fresh craft beer, pro and new winter athletes will mingle and enjoy the evening.

Harold the Hodag, Hoodoo’s mascot, will walk around, giving people high fives and taking pictures of the pre-season stoke.

“There's a lot of antics and games that are involved in how we do the giveaways,” Davis said. “It's not just calling a name and winning a prize.”

Attendees must be prepared for the crazy challenges and games Hoodoo Ski Area staff will put them through. Whether it’s a push-up competition, a thumb-wrestling match, a trivia question or a dance-off, Davis said to be ready.

Hoodoo Ski Area has 25 strategic partners that make these events possible.

Each company contributes to the giveaways as a part of the partnership with Hoodoo, including Blackstrap, Tactics and more. From skis to stickers to overnight lodging to gift cards, everyone will walk away with a little love from Hoodoo.

“The underlining of community, giving back and the philanthropy of it is the baseline of why we do Wintervention.” Davis said. “This is one of the ways that Hoodoo shows you that we love you.”

Blkmkt - Animal Sorbet Kush Mints - 30 % - Hybrid - THC Terpenes 1.22% $46.99 Broken Coast - Amnesia Haze - Sativa 23 % THC - $42.99 Simply Bare Organics - BC Organic Lime Mojito - Sativa 22 % THC $59 I also bought one gram each of Dabble DabbleBerry Hash Rosin Courte sy J ($54.99), and Nugz Water os h Ja Hash ($49). rd The exchange rate gave me a 25% discount. There were ounces for under $100 from other growers, as well as cheaper options for concentrates.

I was ready to begin sampling and asked one of the budtenders if there was a place nearby where I could smoke. He said, “Anyplace where cigarette smoking is allowed, but so long as it’s outside, I don’t think anyone cares where, really.”

I mentioned having visited smoking lounges years ago, and he perked up “Oh, you mean the Amsterdam Cafe, right below the Cannabis Culture Cafe?

It’s about a dozen blocks from here.”

Which is how I found myself back at the same building that I had visited as a Tokers Bowl judge, when it was the offices for “Cannabis Culture” magazine. Now the third floor was an expansive smoking lounge with scattered couches, chairs and tables, a reggae soundtrack and a $5 cover charge.

They offered me use of a sterilized analog Volcano, grinder and tray, as well as a selection of non-alcoholic drinks, snacks and assorted pre rolls for purchase.

I happily sat and vaped all five strains in three sizable volcano bags each, taking increasingly blurry photos of the containers perched in the large windows overlooking a park across the street. Each jar had an airtight foil seal over the lid, and most had a humidity pouch. It was by far the finest prepackaged flower I had ever tried: flavorful, sticky and potent.

That night back at the hotel, I was thrilled to discover that the outdoor deck with tables and chairs allowed cannabis consumption. With the bong purchased that day, we sampled tasty and effective flowers and hash that The Sadies had been gifted by friends and neighbors, as well as my purchased rosin and hash late into the evening.

Cannabis enthusiasts should make Vancouver a must-see destination. lor ay eT in

ast month, I found myself in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, for 46 hours to help my Canadian friends The Sadies and Kacy and Clayton kick off a tour. Although I’ve visited B.C. frequently, I hadn’t been back since the country passed national cannabis legalization in 2018.

My Canadian cannabis experiences began in 2003 when I was a judge for the second annual Tokers Bowl, a multistrain/grower/day event, produced by the late “Cannabis Culture” magazine.

Subsequent trips afforded me numerous opportunities to buy varieties of fabled BC Bud from dealers stationed at dive bar jukeboxes, sketchy dudes in parks and home delivery drivers with backpacks containing 15 different strains.

I was posted up with the bands at a hotel in Richmond, a suburb of Vancouver near the airport, a city that does not allow cannabis storefronts.

Thankfully, a 15-minute SkyTrain ride dropped me off into the heart of downtown Vancouver, where cannabis stores abound—so much so that deciding upon where to buy was a welcome challenge. Online reviews suggested two shops within walking distance that had the trifecta of quality selection, good prices and knowledgeable budtenders. I selected Muse Cannabis and City Cannabis Co. The layout of both stores was similar, and markedly different from Oregon dispensaries. Everything was located in well-lit, locked glass display cases, and the flower was prepackaged, albeit with more care than Oregon products. This meant smelling the flower wasn’t an option, making me even more dependent upon the producer’s provided description and budtender recommendations.

I told the three budtenders I wanted eighths of any strains that were highest in terpenes, regardless of THC content, was preferably a “Canadian” strain (ala Maui Wowie) and was produced by craft growers. I also asked for solvent-free concentrates.

The staff seemed enthused to help, although it could have just been Canadian politeness.

I purchased 3.5 grams of: Sweet Grass Organic Cannabis - Mendoz Stomper - Indica - 26 % THC $44.99 Pistol and Paris - Orange Tingz Hybrid - 29 % THC Terpenes 2.59% - $62

Sparkwellness.love

Sylvia Plath had a disturbing, melodramatic relationship with romance. In one of her short stories, for example, she has a woman character say, "His love is the twenty-story leap, the rope at the throat, the knife at the heart." I urge you to avoid contact with people who think and feel like that— as glamorous as they might seem. In my view, your romantic destiny in the coming months can and should be uplifting, exciting in healthy ways, and conducive to your well-being. There's no need to link yourself with shadowy renegades when there will be plenty of radiant helpers available.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): I like Sagittarian healer and author Caroline Myss because she's both spiritual and practical, compassionate and fierce. Here's a passage from her work that I think will be helpful for you in the coming weeks: "Get bored with your past. It's over! Forgive yourself for what you think you did or didn't do, and focus on what you will do, starting now." To ensure you make the most of her counsel, I'll add a further insight from author Augusten Burroughs: "You cannot be a prisoner of your past against your will—because you can only live in the past inside your mind."

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): How would you respond if you learned that the $55 t-shirt you're wearing was made by a Haitian kid who earned 10 cents for her work? Would you stop wearing the shirt?

Donate it to a thrift store?

Send money to the United Nations agency UNICEF, which works to protect Haitian child laborers? I recommend the latter option. I also suggest you use this as a prompt to engage in leisurely meditations on what you might do to reduce the world's suffering.

It's an excellent time to stretch your imagination to understand how your personal life is interwoven with the lives of countless others, many of whom you don't even know. And I hope you will think about how to offer extra healings and blessings not just to your allies, but also to strangers. What's in it for you? Would this bring any selfish benefits your way? You may be amazed at how it leads you to interesting connections that expand your world.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Aquarian philosopher Alfred North Whitehead wrote, "The silly question is the first intimation of some totally new development." He also said, "Every really new idea looks crazy at first." With these thoughts in mind, Aquarius, I will tell you that you are now in the Season of the Silly Question. I invite you to enjoy dreaming up such queries. And as you indulge in that fertile pleasure, include another: Celebrate the Season of Crazy Ideas.

Could you spot a child in distress?

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): We all love to follow stories: the stories we live, the stories that unfold for people we know, and the stories told in movies, TV shows, and books. A disproportionately high percentage of the entertainment industry's stories are sad or tormented or horrendously painful. They influence us to think such stories are the norm. They tend to darken our view of life. While I would never try to coax you to avoid all those stories, Pisces, I will encourage you to question whether maybe it's wise to limit how many you absorb. The coming weeks will be an excellent time to explore this possibility. Be willing to say, "These sad, tormented, painful stories are not ones I want to invite into my imagination." Try this experiment: For the next three weeks, seek out mostly uplifting tales.

The signs of child abuse are not always obvious.

Learn how to spot the signs.

A child may thank you.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Virginia Woolf wrote a passage that I suspect will apply to you in the coming weeks. She said, "There is no denying the wild horse in us. To gallop intemperately; fall on the sand tired out; to feel the earth spin; to have — positively — a rush of friendship for stones and grasses — there is no getting over the fact that this desire seizes us." Here's my question for you, Aries: How will you harness your wild horse

Visit kidscenter.org/get-trained

energy? I'm hoping that the self-possessed human in you will take command of the horse and direct it to serve you and yours with constructive actions.

It's fine to indulge in some intemperate galloping, too. But I'll be rooting for a lot of temperate and disciplined galloping.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): "The failure of love might account for most of the suffering in the world," writes poet Marie Howe. I agree with that statement. Many of us have had painful episodes revolving around people who no longer love us and people whose lack of love for us makes us feel hurt. That's the bad news, Taurus. The good news is that you now have more power than usual to heal the failures of love you have endured in the past.

You also have an expanded capacity to heal others who have suffered from the failures of love. I hope you will be generous in your ministrations!

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Many Geminis tell me they are often partly awake as they sleep. In their dreams, they might work overtime trying to solve waking-life problems. Or they may lie in bed in the dark contemplating intricate ideas that fascinate them, or perhaps ruminating on the plot developments unfolding in a book they've been reading or a TV show they've been bingeing. If you are prone to such behavior, I will ask you to minimize it for a while. In my view, you need to relax your mind extra deeply and allow it to play luxuriously with non-utilitarian fantasies and dreams. You have a sacred duty to yourself to explore mysterious and stirring feelings that bypass rational thought.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Here are my two key messages for you.

1. Remember where you hide important stuff. 2.

Remember that you have indeed hidden some important stuff. Got that?

Please note that I am not questioning your urge to lock away a secret or two. I am not criticizing you for wanting to store a treasure that you are not yet ready to use or reveal. It's completely understandable if you want to keep a part of your inner world off-limits to certain people for the time being. But as you engage in any or all of these actions, make sure you don't lose touch with your valuables. And don't forget why you are stashing them.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): I know I don't have to give you lessons in expressing your sensuality. Nor do you need prods and encouragement to do so. As a Leo, you most likely have abundant talent in the epicurean arts. But as you prepare to glide into the lush and lusty heart of the Sensuality Season, it can't hurt to offer you a pep talk from your fellow Leo bon vivant, James Baldwin. He said: "To be sensual is to respect and rejoice in the force of life, of life itself, and to be present in all that one does, from the effort of loving to the breaking of bread."

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Many Virgos are on a lifelong quest to cultivate a knack described by Sigmund Freud: "In the small matters, trust the mind. In the large ones, the heart." And I suspect you are now at a pivotal point in your efforts to master that wisdom. Important decisions are looming in regards to both small and large matters. I believe you will do the right things as long as you empower your mind to do what it does best and your heart to do what it does best.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Social media like Facebook and Twitter feed on our outrage. Their algorithms are designed to stir up our disgust and indignation. I confess that I get semi-caught in their trap. I am sometimes seduced by the temptation to feel lots of umbrage and wrath, even though those feelings comprise a small minority of my total emotional range. As an antidote, I proactively seek experiences that rouse my wonder and sublimity and holiness. In the next two weeks, Libra, I invite you to cultivate a focus like mine. It's high time for a phase of minimal anger and loathing— and maximum reverence and awe.

UNDERSTANDING INTIMACY: BAD IN BED

By Dr. Jane Guyn

— Bad In Bed I’m so glad that you reached out because most people approach this problem the wrong way. You want to be an amazing lover.

You want your partner to be passionate and engaged when you make love. You want to feel comfortable and confident during sex. That’s an admirable goal.

But sometimes trying to be a “good lover” actually makes things worse.

People often focus on their “performance” or on things like sexual positions or specific techniques.

They worry about erections for themselves or for a partner. They wonder about their own or a partner’s orgasmic responsiveness. They are uncomfortable being naked together. Sex has potential to be a wonderful experience for you and your wife. But when you focus on performance or specific skills, by definition, you’re focusing on doing instead of being.

It’s not bad to learn about different sexual things to do, but in my view, there are three “being” things that matter more than any specific sexual skill you might learn.

1. Slow Down: Studies indicate that the average heterosexual couple in America spends 5-7 minutes having sex.

Unfortunately, when sex is brief like this, the she/her partner doesn’t have time to fully open up. Some experts say that women need 20 minutes of what is called “foreplay” to be fully aroused; others say it’s 45 minutes. I understand that your partner encourages you to finish quickly. Because of this, you probably think she doesn’t want anything more. Talk with her about slowing down. What would make the experience more satisfying for her? Listen closely to what she says. Watch her body language as she talks. She may be speeding things up because she’s not really enjoying the sex you’ve been having. See if you can create something that’s worth her time.

2. Show Up: To have in-person sex, of course you need to be in the room.

Unfortunately, many people are physically present, but mentally, emotionally and energetically very far away.

If you peeked into their bedroom, it would seem like they were present.

They might even be acting very seductive and sexual, but in reality they’re somewhere else. They might be in their heads thinking about something, or too anxious to experience pleasure. They might be dissociating because of traumatic things that have happened in the past. Being fully present is a gift you can offer to your partner.

It’s also a gift that you can give to yourself. If sexual trauma is keeping either of you from enjoying intimacy, get support from a skilled sex-positive professional. When you’re truly present, sex can be something magical.

3. Let Go: It’s great to feel relaxed and uninhibited during sex, but letting go isn’t just about getting rid of stress or nervousness. It’s also about releasing unhelpful expectations. You probably hold onto many known and unknown rules about sex. These rules might be about what’s OK to do or say when you’re making love. You might have rules about climax that make you both feel a lot of stress instead of pleasure when you’re together. These unspoken rules impact you every time you connect. Have a conversation about your expectations. Let go and release the rules that don’t serve you now. Play together—truly free and open at the deepest level.

I hope that these three small things help you talk with your partner about your intimate relationship. It might be challenging to get the conversation started at first. I understand that. But when you talk about these three things: slowing down, showing up and letting go, you’ll have the potential to change your relationship. Take it one step at a time. You got this.

I’m a man who’s been married to a wonderful woman for over 10 years. We have a healthy sex life, but I’ve noticed that my wife isn’t very passionate when we make love. It seems like she wants me to hurry up and finish. This makes me think that she doesn’t really like what I’m doing. Can you please give me some pointers so I’m better? I want to be an amazing lover, but I worry that I’m bad.

TAKE ME HOME

By Karen Malanga Principal Broker RE/MAX Key Properties

Should You List Your Home During the Holidays? something different. Is your driveway sloped or flat? How many stairs are there to the main entry? Are the gutters susceptible to ice damming?

It’s important to think through these components and assess your property’s specific needs. You may need to hire a service to keep things safe and in tip-top shape.

Finally, be sure to keep your home at a comfortable temperature. Buyers who are cold will generally not stay as long in a home. It’s our goal to have them feel at home and take their time. If your property is vacant this is essential and your real estate agent should help you devise a plan for maintaining a healthy temperature, not only for visitors, but for the sake of your plumbing. As well, you’ll want to think about creating that cozy feeling we all look for in a home this time of year. Lighting the fire just before a showing can really have a big impact, especially when the snow is falling outside.

Sometimes sellers are concerned about showings and how to manage their family events. It’s always our goal to simplify the home-selling process. If you are intending to enjoy your home while it’s listed, we’ll always work to schedule showings around any holiday events and dinners you might have planned.

The holiday and winter months bring some challenges in selling your home. But this time also brings some advantages, most notably, serious buyers and less competition. With the help of your trusted real estate agent, you will be able to overcome the challenges and create an inviting scene that showcases your home during the most wonderful time of the year.

ven though the weather can be challenging this time of year, the holiday season is a terrific time to list your home. With an average of 20,000 visitors per day and all the snow enthusiasts that descend upon Bend once winter arrives, you have a captive audience. Buyers that are shopping in winter are serious buyers. They are taking time away from holiday festivities to view homes.

Buyers are attracted to that feeling of warmth and coziness that winter provides the perfect back drop for.

Fires in the fireplace, white lights and greenery on the mantle often convey to buyers that sense of home they are looking for and as a place to gather.

So how do you set the stage for a successful sale? You’ll want to think about three major areas: holiday décor, snow and ice removal and keeping your home warm.

First, let’s address holiday décor.

While it’s important to enjoy your home and what is important to you, it’s smart to simplify your decorations while trying to sell. Think more of decorating for the season, not the holiday specifically. Simple greenery and classic, white outdoor lighting can really showcase a home in the snow and produce some amazing photography results. If you decide to decorate, be sure not to clutter areas such as kitchen counters and living spaces. Less is more, especially when you’re trying to show off spaciousness and features such as granite countertops and high-end architecture.

Next, you’ll want to be sure to think through snow and ice removal. We always walk through a winter maintenance plan with our clients during our first meeting. Every property demands
