EDITOR’S NOTE:

You know how some people like to declare the weeks around their birthdays their “birthday week,” or even “birthday month?” That’s kind of how we feel about Halloween here at the Source Weekly. Dressing up as someone other than yourself can be a blast—as long as it doesn’t come at the expense of someone else’s culture or way of life.

Not only are we dedicating this week’s feature to parties and costumes and candy, we’ll also slide in some of that next week, since that issue begins to hit stands Oct. 30. It’s like Halloween all month! While we’re gearing up for what we’ll wear to all those parties (I assure you, I’m getting way more creative than cat ears…) we hope this fun issue also gives you some food for thought in areas of transportation, design as a tool for social good, combating the opioid crisis and more. Thanks for reading!

ransportation issues are a major concern for people in Bend. Right now, the City of Bend is asking people to take part in a short survey about transportation issues.

According to info on the survey, “The City of Bend is considering making strategic investments to reduce traffic congestion and improve the safety of neighborhood streets. These improvements could require an increase in local taxes or fees.”

While nothing has yet been decided, another General Obligation bond to pay for transportation-related infrastructure is very likely to come before Bend voters in 2020. The last GO bond, approved by voters in 2011, saw the completion of projects such as the roundabouts at Reed Market and 15th, Mt. Washington and Simpson Ave., 18th and Empire and more.

Because local people value transportation upgrades, a new bond is likely needed in order to continue making upgrades to some crucial pain points drivers experience around the city—not to mention, ideally, seeing upgrades that make it safer for non-drivers to get around.

But even if voters approve a bond, that money is likely not going to be enough to cover the vast amount of infrastructure upgrades needed.

While the temptation could be to simply increase the amount of the bond, voters may balk at the sticker price.

What’s more, bonds place the financial burden solely on local property owners. In a housing crisis, it’s unwise to put all the fiscal responsibility on property owners who could very well pass that increase onto tenants who already face issues of housing affordability.

That then begs the question: What other funding sources are out there, and how can we see transportation infrastructure paid for, at least in part, in a way that puts the burden on the people who use the system the most? One such option is a local gas tax, which, in theory, allows the tens of thousands of tourists who visit here each year to pay some of the cost. In a climate-conscious world—one in which some electric cars use no gas at all—a gas tax is a limited solution, albeit one that we believe should be part of the funding picture.

Another promising option lies in a road usage charge, which charges people a fee for the number of miles they drive, rather than relying only on the amount of gas they add to their tanks.

Fortunately, some of Oregon’s leaders have seen that, too. The Oregon Legislature formed a Road User Fee

Task Force back in 2001 and conducted two pilot programs to test out the technology needed to make the system work. Under the voluntary program, OReGO, up to 5,000 vehicles in the state paid 1.5 cents per mile in lieu of the state’s gas tax. With the passage of HB 2881, the 2019 legislature moved to expand the program by removing the 5,000-vehicle cap and directing the Oregon Department of Transportation to work with vehicle dealerships to encourage people to participate.

This has been a long game on the part of state leaders to keep transportation dollars flowing as cars become more efficient. It has the potential to offer more sustained funding for state projects on ODOT-managed roads in Bend, such as Greenwood Avenue or Highway 97—but unlike the local gas tax proposed in 2016, doesn’t draw a direct line between the usage in Bend and the need for transportation upgrades in the city.

But local governments are already exploring how road use charge programs could fund local projects.

According to meeting notes from the state’s Road User Fee Task Force, next month, the task force was set to begin testing out geo-fencing and other programs in the Portland area, which would begin to explore how to track usage in a specific area, and then how to allocate some road use charge dollars to the city or county where drivers are using the roads.

A report created by the National League of Cities this summer pointed out that these programs may be more challenging for cities to implement (versus state- or region-wide ones, but that intergovernmental collaboration could be key in seeing more localized programs succeed. In other words, the City of Bend would need to work closely with state leaders to see this become a viable funding option, and to see it implemented in a way that could work.

And that’s where you come in. Now is the time to offer input on what types of projects you support in developing local transportation infrastructure.

While the City’s one-minute survey doesn’t ask about types of funding, there’s room to type in your own comments. The survey is available at bendoregon.gov/one-minute-survey.

A local road user charge could have a host of other benefits—including increased ridership on public transit, and or more people actively commuting.

E-bike use could increase. Heck, it could also result in people in Bend being more than just avid trail cyclists—instead making them well-rounded cyclists who also pedal to work and school.

BETRAYAL OF THE KURDS

The craven withdrawal from Syria and our abandonment of our Kurdish allies is clearly an example of a decision made without thought or care, much less coordination with our allies. This action has been a sad example of the destructive approaches (one can hardly say, “policies”) to international relations and our national security by the Trump Administration. I am particularly sensitive to such dishonorable behavior. Some of my 30 years as a Regular Army officer was spent serving in Southeast Asia with our allies, the Meo tribesmen of Laos, the Free Cambodia movement, the anti-Communist Vietnamese, and others). We left these brave allies to the North Vietnamese, the Khmer Rouge, and the Pathet Lao. Now, we betray the Kurds, fierce fighters who bore the brunt of the campaign to defeat ISIS. As they face brutal attack by Turks, they are attempting to survive by making arrangements with Bashar al-Assad and his allies, the Russians. This abandonment is not only immoral, it is freeing hundreds of the most radical ISIS fighters. These zealots will almost certainly be heard of again through the deaths of Western Europeans and perhaps Americans.

So, these statements by Trump that he would “obliterate the Turkish economy’ when in his, “great and unmatched wisdom” the Turks perpetrate actions he considers, “off limits” has meant nothing.

And, while he has decried “endless Middle East wars” he is sending 3,000 additional troops to Saudi Arabia, presumably to fight and die to protect the royal family.

In regard to the Patagonia sweaters seen throughout Central Oregon. I would like to call attention to the point that this city has a river flowing through town and three dams on it. Patagonia’s philosophy is against dams in regard to river continuity and many people wear their logo in support of this, some hoping to see a return of the diversity of fish here. I moved to Bend as a child in the recession of 2008 as a way for my family to weather the rising prices in Hawaii. Now, things are very different here as prices in Bend push other families to new locations. I would hate to see the passions of Bend be left behind or whitewashed and markeddown as trend.

CLASS CONSCIOUSNESS

From our earliest indoctrination; our mainstream education, we are taught to strive for class mobilization. You believe that you stand at one point of reference and by accumulation of wealth and material goods you move upwards on a social ladder. Class structure is one of the most lucrative and divisive constructs ever conceived. Classism rewards only monetary gain and degrades community. A classist society keeps racism in place, it keeps nationalism in place, the base for fascism. We call for working class unity.

A power structure on a horizontal plane, that no state can dismantle. To realize we all play a part in making society healthy, from custodians to doctors; chefs to therapists; houseless to landscapers. We are all one no matter the color, creed, language or ability. The people united have all the power.

IRRIGATION DOES NOT MEAN AGRICULTURE IN DESCHUTES COUNTY

The U.S. Department of Agriculture performs periodic nationwide surveys of agriculture that are broken down to the county level. The latest survey was released in April with data as of 2017.

It clearly shows that most irrigators in Deschutes County are not “farmers” in any traditional sense of word.

This detailed report says that there are 1,484 farms in Deschutes County, 1,269 are irrigated. Half of these farms are under 11 acres in size. Only 216 are over 50 acres; 685 of the farms have annual sales of less than $2,500. The average farm had losses of -$12,866. Irrigators currently take 90% of the water in the upper Deschutes but in Deschutes County farming is often a lifestyle choice or hobby, not the viable production of agricultural products.

Everyone has a right to buy land and pursue their hobby, but this data clearly shows that viewing water distribution

through the lens of fish vs. farms is deceptive at best. It is also important to know that many of these landowners would gladly give up their water, or at least greatly reduce their allotment, if they could. Irrigation districts simply do not allow this.

Per Oregon law, all water is owned by the public. Irrigators have the right to “beneficially” use that water, for the benefit of the public. The USDA survey raises some basic questions about water use.

Why should hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars be spent to subsidize someone’s hobby as required in the Habitat Conservation Plan currently out for public comment? Today, Deschutes County has a lifestyle economy; our incredible growth is due to the quality of life that can be found here. Clean, ample water in our rivers and creeks is an important element of that lifestyle.

To be clear, I am not advocating that water be withheld from any farm, but it is past time that water be distributed in a way that is beneficial to the public in a modern sense, not based on 100-year-old laws written when Central Oregon was first being settled. The Basin Study Work Group identified ways this could be more quickly accomplished, at lower cost, than proposed by irrigation districts in the Habitat Conservation Plan.

or the second year, organizers behind the Bend Design conference are bringing solutions-oriented programming to the conference, on top of being an event aimed at convening creative thinkers from many walks of life. While the first few days of the conference focus on a host of creative topics, the Saturday “Bend Design for Good” sessions are focused on community problem solving.

As the City of Bend updates its Transportation System Plan—the part of the City’s Comprehensive Plan that seeks to plan for the next 20 years of transportation needs—it’s an ideal time for creative thinkers to weigh in. Bend Design’s Saturday sessions include “Designing Safe & Beautiful Pedestrian-friendly Connections Between East & West Bend,” as well as “Designing to Reach Disabled People.”

In the pedestrian-focused workshop, people will have the opportunity to “develop ideas for new transportation connections from the Bend Central District to Downtown Bend that are safe, enjoyable

and beautiful to experience.” The workshop focused on disabled people will “amplify ideas and perspectives of disabled Bend citizens, so designers and city stakeholders can begin learning how to reach rather than simply appease its disabled population.”

“Bend Design for Good are great workshops for the community to engage in and opens doors for discussions around how design can impact pressing issues facing our community,” René Mitchell, Bend Design co-producer told the Source Weekly. Both workshops, as well as Saturday’s Design Equity Tournament—which will challenge people to design a logo for OUT Central Oregon’s new film series— are available as an ala cart option—meaning people can pay for the individual workshops without having to buy the full Bend Design festival pass.

ast week, the Oregon Court of Appeals granted a temporary stay on the new rules that would have temporarily banned flavored vaporizer products in the state—meaning that for now, flavored nicotine vape products can stay on the shelves.

The Court of Appeals granted a temporary stay on the Oregon Health Authority rules, which went into effect Oct. 15 after Gov. Kate Brown issued

an Oct. 4 executive order temporarily banning flavored vape products in the state. That 180-day ban came after two deaths in Oregon, reportedly linked to a mysterious vaping-related lung illness.

The temporary stay, announced Oct. 17, was initiated by a handful of companies selling nicotine vaporizer products in Oregon, which claimed the ban would force them out of business.

The stay suspends the enforcement of OHA’s temporary ban on flavored nicotine vaping products, but doesn’t affect the ban on flavored THC vape products. The ban on THC products does not include terpene- or marijuana-derived flavored vape products—meaning that at local dispensaries, many vape products continue to be offered to customers.

According to OHA, the Department of Justice’s “appellate division will be defending the rules and responding to the request for a stay.”

Disposing of Unused Prescriptions Oregon takes action against high rates of drug addiction, overdose with medication take-back days

7

By Cayla Clark Combatting the skyrocketing numbers of addicted individuals is a multipronged process. A statewide crackdown on distribution, already underway, is part of that effort, officials say. The number of opioids prescribed by doctors decreased by 22% between 2010 and 2015, according to the OHA, and opioid-related deaths decreased by a significant 45% between 2006 and 2016.

While the number of overdose-related deaths has been steadily declining since statewide restrictions were put into place, Gov. Kate Brown declared drug and alcohol abuse a public health emergency in 2018 and directed state officials to prepare a strategic plan to address it— including suggesting an increase in adequate and affordable treatment.

Brown’s March 2018 executive order directed various agencies to prepare “budgetary recommendations” related to the plan during the creation of the governor’s 2021-2023 budget— much to the dismay of addicts and addiction specialists.

Mike Marshall, executive director of Oregon Recovers, weighed in on the situation. “We are profoundly disappointed in Governor Brown’s decision to ignore Oregon’s worst public health crisis for yet another year,” Marshall stated in the release. “Her lack of action will directly result in more Oregonians dying unnecessarily, more kids deposited in our failing foster care system, more young people heading to prison instead of

college, and more people losing a safe place to call home.”

Nationally, numerous lawsuits allege Big Pharma engaged in deceptive marketing around opioids. An Ohio lawsuit accused four of the nation’s largest drug companies of contributing and catalyzing the state’s addiction crisis. The $260 million settlement, tentatively agreed upon this week, means that the case will not move forward in court, though there have been roughly 2,600 other lawsuits brought by state and local governments throughout the country. U.S. District Judge Dan Polster continues to advocate for a coast-tocoast settlement; one that would contribute to increased availability of vital resources like addiction treatment, while further urging major pharmaceutical companies to change the way they market opioids.

Because available treatment options remain scarce, events like

the take-back event become even an even more crucial part of the effort.

Twice a year (once in the summer and once in the fall), over 5,800 sites are set up throughout the country, each offering safe and professional medication disposal.

People can bring unused or expired prescriptions to the St. Charles Bend Campus on Oct. 26 between 10am and 2pm. Most medications will be accepted, including pills, liquids, creams, powders and patches, as well as oncology medications. Pharmacists will also be on site to answer questions and address concerns.

his past August, Deschutes County Health Services issued a public health alert concerning potentially deadly heroin throughout the county, after four overdose-related deaths occurred within a 36-hour time period. According to the Oregon Health Authority, an average of five Oregonians lose their lives every week as a result of opioid overdose—though the number of people struggling with addiction is far greater. In many instances, opioid addiction stems from the over-prescription of narcotic medications—many initially prescribed to treat short-term injuries and other temporary conditions. Roughly 21 to 29% of all individuals who are prescribed a narcotic painkiller will end up abusing it, reports the National Institute on Drug Abuse.

As part of the effort to curb the problem, St. Charles Medical Center will participate in the 18th National Prescription Drug Take Back Day, a countrywide event geared toward the safe disposal of unused medications.

The program is organized by the Drug Enforcement Administration, and was initially instituted in order to bring awareness to opioid abuse while preventing potential misuse. During the last take-back event, held on April 27, the DEA collected and destroyed 469 tons of unused prescription medications. Since the national event first began in 2010, over 11,816,393 pounds (5,908 tons) of medication have been safely disposed of.

Deschutes Brewery

A massive effort goes into creating Bend’s biggest Halloween parties

8 WWW.BENDSOURCE.COM / OCTOBER 24, 2019 / BEND’S INDEPENDENT VOICE

By Cayla Clark

Heather Laurie, at left, and Paul Brizendine, right, prep boards that will make up some of the decorative elements at the Deschutes Brewery Warehouse parties, taking place Friday and Saturday nights.

I

t’s that magical time of year again; time for pumpkin-flavored everything, snuggling up by the fire and drunkenly stumbling through the streets of Bend, dressed like a taco.

One of the most important decisions Central Oregonians must make during the month of October is which Halloween party to attend. There’s certainly no shortage of options.

Perhaps one of the most unique and involved Halloween-themed events is the annual Deschutes Warehouse Party. The warehouse itself is converted into a whole new world; this year, into a ‘70s-style summer camp, complete with cabins, a lake, a dock and its own resident psycho serial killer. Think “Wet Hot American Summer” meets “Sleepaway Camp.”

But we wanted to know, just what goes into setting up such an elaborate party?

Deschutes Warehouse Party The Deschutes party has made quite a name for itself over the past 10 years, and many locals consider the brewery’s annual bash to be one of the best in Bend. A new theme is chosen every year, and sometime in late September the crew gets to work, building elaborate props and structures. The amount of work that goes into preparation is mind-blowing, considering the party only lasts for two nights.

“I started salvaging materials in the summer,” event coordinator Heather Laurie explained. “I spend about an hour a day scoping Facebook and Craigslist.” Most of the props were free, salvaged by Laurie and her partner. Others were recycled from last year’s event. “I don’t just want to buy a bunch of plastic decorations online,” says Laurie. “We do a lot of recycling—we like to build pieces that can be used again.” For example, she explained how the ‘cabins’ the contractors were busy erecting could be recycled into backyard sheds.

The three life-sized cabins were scheduled to be transferred into the warehouse on Oct. 23, as will the massive bench, resembling a dock, that will round off the indoor “lake.” The prop pieces are also interactive; the cabins packed with clues helping guests solve a campy murder mystery.

Of course, because of the nationwide demand for Deschutes beer, production can’t simply shut down. “The production team is super awesome about working around us,” Laurie shared. “We work around each other. It’s pretty cool.”

In addition to an extensive and impressive DJ lineup, there are four bars, a large lounge area, a dance floor and a live graffiti artist, Shakir Manners (Shak Smart), who also created an inspired mural for the event. Bars will feature an undisclosed cocktail list, wine and Deschutes beer.

Hot tip: Those who purchase VIP tickets to both Friday and Saturday will have access to an exclusive daytime work-out session, geared toward rejuvenating the body and preparing it for another night of non-stop dancing.

Boneyard Halloween Bash Boneyard Beer is throwing its first ever Halloween party on Friday, Nov. 1. For those not quite ready to retire the costume, or if the work-week prevented someone’s freak flag from flying too high, they can head on over to the decked-out pub for another night of fun. Boneyard will host a costume contest (complete with prizes), feature a local DJ and offer food and drink specials.

Because this is Boneyard’s first-ever attempt at a big-time bash, they’re pulling out all the stops. “Our chefs are preparing special, Halloween-themed appetizers,” said organizer Nicole Vega.

“The bartenders are creating special cocktails, and our [adult] slushies will be Halloween-themed, too.”

Redmond’s DJ Chuck Boogie will play music suitable for all ages (the whole family is encouraged to attend), ranging from Halloween classics and oldies to modern hits. The cash prizes for the costume contest are pretty hefty, with the first-place winner walking away with $500.

Worthy Brewing’s Dance of The Dead Seeing as how Worthy’s pub is open for business even on the day of the big Dance of the Dead, Kayja Buhmann, event coordinator for Worthy’s annual Halloween party, explained that their setup and break-down process has to happen extremely quickly. It isn’t too difficult, considering decorations are minimal, she says.

“We bring in lights and smoke machines,” Buhmann explained. “But really, the space is so cool that it decorates itself. The costumes themselves are the best decorations.” Perhaps one of the coolest features this year will be a live performance by LUNIZ—the American hip-hop duo that has had “5 on it” since 1995.

“Our VIP package is pretty awesome,” said Buhhman. “But we limit the number of tickets we sell. Our goal is to keep things simple and affordable.”

Don’t forget the Scare Grounds!

And for those just looking to get scared without the massive party, the Scare Grounds is back at the Deschutes County Fairgrounds, featuring three haunted attractions.

Whether you’re looking for simplicity or extravagance, late night dancing or family-friendly fun, trick or treat yo’ self to Bend’s Halloween scene. There truly is something for everybody.

LGBTQ youth-run program brings entertainment and awareness— and a sense of belonging

hile Central Oregon is home to several LGBTQ-friendly organizations, some gay, bisexual and transgender kids still struggle to find their place. But one new organization is aimed at bringing people together to support LGBTQ youth in Bend.

Youth Experiential Entertainment Theater is made up of local students who have banded together to entertain the community while supporting one another in the arts. Their first performance was a play titled “Blue,” which they performed at this year’s Pride festival. The play focuses on the suicide of a young boy—a seemingly heavy subject for 15- and 16-year-olds, but one that deeply resonated with everyone involved.

Andrew Fairman, a transgender teen and head of YEET, explained the personal importance of the play.

“It’s a play about bullying and suicide,” he said. “It’s about a few choice words… like fa****, and the impact that they can have.”

The subject matter of their second show is lighter. According to event organizer Raechel Gilland, it’s “full cheese all the way.” Gilland is the founder of Queens of the High Desert, a drag-oriented organization that

welcomes queens and kings of all ages and skill levels.

YEET’s first drag show will combine cult classic musicals with Halloween-themed characters, ranging from “Rocky Horror Picture Show” to “Rent.” Initially, Gilland denied their request. “I had so much on my plate,” she said. “But come on… how could I have said no to these kids?” It helped that Fairman completely took the reins.

“These are proactive youth that want to do theater,” Gilland explained. “Andrew sends me all of the information I need, he does the production stuff… the kids come up with the songs, they choreograph the numbers. Really, I just oversee and help where I can.”

“It’s so much fun,” Fairman said with a huge smile on his face. “Being introduced to the drag world… watching from the back… I always thought it was so cool, but I never had the opportunity to be involved.” Gilland has noticed a positive impact on the parents of the teens as well. “This has been a way for parents to accept drag as more of a performance art. You don’t have to be gay to do drag. This is about helping kids find a community that’s safe.” According to Gilland, some of the parents are still “iffy.” “But,” she

says, “This show is giving children the opportunity to explore new venues— and giving parents the opportunity to explore new acceptance levels.”

After spending an hour talking to Fairman and his friends, it became clear that—though still in its early stages—YEET had made a major positive impact on everyone involved. These teens were not only able to express themselves, but they were being encouraged and supported to explore new methods of self-expression.

The teens have been working hard to bring a family-friendly drag show to Bend.

They rehearse during lunchtime at school and after class (in between their extracurriculars). They’re hoping to hold their final dress rehearsal at Prestige Senior Living, bringing live entertainment and youth to those that may miss greeting door-to-door trick-or-treaters. The show itself is relatively short, at a little over an hour. “And lots and lots of candy,” Gilland reminds.

“Be sure to bring a pillow case!”

t happens every year: October rolls around and you end up making last-minute Halloween plans. But not only did you forget about plans, you totally spaced the most important thing—a good costume. Again.

If you’re reading this now and realize you still need to throw something together, don’t panic! There are plenty of easy, last minute options.

Rule #1 to remember is that thrift stores are costume building sanctuaries. Even if you don’t have a character in mind, you can get tons of inspiration from the clothing or accessories there—and it’s cheap. A few years ago my girlfriend and I were about five days out from a Halloween party with nothing set in stone, so we looked to TV for inspiration.

We landed on Bob and Linda Belcher from “Bob’s Burgers.

Popular TV characters are always a great costume, and easily recognizable. In one day I was able to create a full Linda ensemble just by going to a local thrift store.

If you have fewer than five days—say you’re costume-less with only a few hours until the party begins—then makeup might be your best friend. With just a bit of face paint or

Linda Belcher executed to perfection.

A nationally recognized makeup expert has tips for throwing together a last-minute costume

household makeup items you can turn yourself into a skeleton, zombie or more. “Makeup and body paint are fabulous for touching up a costume for Halloween time. It makes costumes you already have look better and it makes any normal clothes you have turn into a costume,’� says Natalie Fletcher, a former Bendite who was the Season 1 champion on “Skin Wars,� the body-painting competition reality show. “Zombies are really great—anything dead is really great, actually. You can turn a sexy nurse costume into like a sexy-dead nurse and it makes you look that much cooler.�

Fletcher mentions that by using makeup, people can wear totally normal clothes and the makeup will do all the talking—become a voodoo doll, for example, or add a zipper to your mouth.

There’s really no limit, and for those not confident in makeup skills, Fletcher says not to worry. “The options are endless. One outlet we all have is YouTube. If you type in basically anything you want to be—a character or costume, there’s going to be at least probably 10 tutorials on how to do that.�

For places in Bend to find quality makeup that will last through the night, Fletcher says Michaels and JOANN Fabrics are two of the best places to go—otherwise, you’ll find your face becoming a mess throughout the night.

SOUND

Scary Good

Horror movie soundtracks that take films to new heights

H

alloween is coming! That means it’s time to head to Blockbuster and rent all the scary movies you can think of—Freddy, Jason, Jigsaw—the whole crew is invited.

But what truly makes a good scary movie?

The acting and story for sure, but people sometimes forget about one special element: the music. The soundtracks to scary movies can prove crucial to executing the biggest moments on screen, adding an extra layer to the horror-themed atmosphere.

Here’s a look at some scary movies that used music to their advantage when trying to build fear far and beyond just jump scares and blood.

The Strangers This movie is largely successful because of the music. Throughout the

film there’s a record player inside the house that serves as a pressure-cooking catalyst for both the audience and protagonists Kristen and James. At one point in the film “the strangers” begin to terrorize Kristen by circling the house and banging on the windows while she’s alone inside. As Kristen runs along she bumps the record player, which then kicks on and begins to skip on loop through Gillian Welch’s “My First Lover,” creating an atmosphere of high tension and despair.

Other songs that leave a mark here are Joanna Newsom’s “Sprout and the Bean” and Merle Haggard’s “Mama Tried.” This is a rare occasion when actual songs from the real world make a heavy impact.

Courtesy Rogue Pictures

In "The Strangers," vinyl spins a spooky mix of tension and despair.

Jaws Now, this might seem obvious, or even silly—but Jaws has one of the most iconic pieces of music used that still gets referenced today.

Without this perfect piece by composer John Williams, the movie might not be as revered as it currently is. It’s a classic theme that properly understood the process of building up a moment.

Nightmare on Elm Street Composed by Charles Bernstein, the soundtrack to “Nightmare on Elm Street” is absolutely dreamy—perfectly Music on Elm Street jumps from dreamy to creepy. fitting the nightmarish horror that Freddy Krueger springs on his victims. The music is so calm at matches the softness to “Silent Hill.” This times that it’s often chilling, which is isn’t your typical gore movie, but rather a definitely the case for the movie’s main psychological horror story where even at theme. Then pop on “Run Nancy” and the best times nothing ever feels 100% all the tempo is naturally picked up—but right. Even the people and creatures in both tracks use synths in a brilliant way this film seem to move along to the beat to simulate the fear of Krueger’s pres- of the soundtrack, and the environment ence. Bernstein also uses these creepy around them react accordingly. vocals sparingly throughout the score that really set these moments off.

Review: “Wheels of the City” The band’s third album drives The Drunken Hearts into new territory

Submitted

GROUP CLASSES

DANI’S CLASSES: (45 MIN)

CORE45

“Wheels of the City” was released on Oct. 18. You can find it on Spotify or Apple Music.

T

he latest album from Colorado five-piece The Drunken Hearts was made in what most would call an unconventional way. One day after the band released 2018’s “The Prize,” the guys headed into the studio and began to make and record a new song each day until they had enough quality content for a new album—and so “Wheels of the City” was born.

The final product is 11 tracks of mountain-man rock that sounds a lot like Eddie Vedder fell into a slow movin’ southern groove—and it’s actually pretty cool.

One of the biggest wow-moments for me on the album was “Unrest.”

This signaled a big stylistic switch compared to the four tracks before it.

The song itself has this atmosphere that sounds like the band just took over a bar and is playing like their lives depended on it—like they were ready to get out of town and keep dream chasing.

Yearning is an underlying theme that seems to ring out through the album. It doesn’t matter what you’re really after; The Drunken Hearts have bottled that feeling up and made it totally relatable. The album is telling us that the wheels of the city (or life) don’t ever stop—just as the people, places and things in it don’t, either.

Everything keeps moving. This is

detailed strongly on “Passchendaele,” a moving story of a veteran coming home to find everything changed, even those he loved most.

There are moments throughout the project where I wish there was a bit more punch and that “Wheels of the City” wasn’t entirely as mellow as it is. If there were a few more tempo changes it would help make each individual song stand out from one another and prevent it from feeling like it’s all moving at one speed.

The contrast to that is “Wheels of the City” sounds much different than any of the band’s previous releases, so it was definitely an effort aimed at a new sound.

Overall, the album is a good listen and highlights some of the group’s best writing to date. One thing that’s clear is that The Drunken Hearts know how to sell a feeling and create a story that’s worth listening to. While at times the slowed pace blurs things, “Wheels of the City” is an interesting final product to an experimental recording process—and risk taking is always something to admire.

Front-row “victims” get a free t-shirt for the splaying blood in “Evil Dead, the Musical”

By Elizabeth Warnimont

I

t’s ti-ime! That’s right, Ash is back to slay some zombies in “Evil Dead, the Musical,” the Stage Right production opening Thursday at the Cascades Theatrical Company.

Producer/director Sandy Klein has been bringing the “Dead” to life for Bend audiences about every other year, she says, for the past 10 years. “I thought the last time was really going to be the last time,” she says, “because it’s a really hard show to put on. It’s a lot of equipment, a lot of clean-up!” Liberal use of fake blood—even shooting it out into the audience—has been a part of the “Evil Dead” tradition since the play debuted in Toronto in 2003. “The reason is, in ‘Evil Dead II,’ the second movie of the series, they went overboard with the use of blood,” Klein explains. “So much so that it was censored in some countries.”

Another “Dead” tradition is the souvenir t-shirt, provided for “splatter-zone” ticket holders, in the front three rows, to protect their clothing. “Some people don’t ever wash them. They wear them over and over. We’ve had bullseyes, a little

college students and they’re gonna do what college students do when they’re in an old abandoned cabin in the woods.

“When Sam Ramie and Bruce Campbell did the first movie, it was meant to be serious,” she explains. “‘Evil Dead II’ (aka ‘Medevil Dead’) ends with Ash being sucked into the vortex and landing in Medieval times. But when ‘Army of Darkness’ (the third film in the series) starts, he comes out of the vortex and he’s enslaved, so he has to break free. The musical puts everything together into one crazy story. It was never meant to be serious. One of the writers, George Reinblatt, writes for Comedy Central.”

The Stage Right production will feature live music by local cover band “Fun Bobby,” temporarily re-monikered “Evil Bobby” for the show. “(Keyboardist) Rick

his time of year can get exciting for those who like to collect art and other unique handmade items, as sales and collective showcases are beginning to pop up. On Nov. 2, the Clay Guild of the Cascades will hold its annual Wildfire Ceramics Showcase in the gymnasium of Highland Magnet School, featuring the work of over 25 clay artists.

The Guild’s mission is to better connect people to clay arts and understand the beauty, and variety of the art form. It

Buckley has been our music director the last four times,” Klein says. “They do a lot of great, fun ‘80s covers.”

For the first time this year, Stage Right may be taking “Evil Dead” on the road. “One of the guys who co-directed with me one year moved to Idaho and is looking for a venue to do it there. I let him know I have the whole set in my trailer. I can bring it!” After her six previous local productions, Bend audiences know: Klein certainly can.

also connects artists working throughout the Cascades to help better collaborate, educate and share resources.

This annual show will feature artists not only from Bend, but Eugene and Ashland, as well. Expect to find finely crafted heirloom pieces as well as functional

day-to-day items that bring craft and heart into everyday life.

The showcases will also give spectators a chance to see clay artists in action. Throughout the day, Guild members will give demonstrations on the various stages of the clay process, from

hand-building and wheel-throwing to glazing final pieces.

This is the time of year people begin to search for gifts. Often, this is something artists think about when making their wares. For example, one Bend artist in the Guild, Justin LeBart of Journeyman Ceramics, will showcase his work.

This year he’s been focused on the idea of ceremony—particularly how people can use everyday objects to create rich experiences. He’ll have tea sets created with the intention of providing beautiful objects to complement the everyday and bring people closer together.

pocket design—every year it’s different,” Klein said. The 2019 tee reads, “Splat-isfaction guaranteed,” with a maimed fist punching through a bullseye.

“We still have our chainsaw that squirts the blood,” Klein says. “We make our own (blood). It’s Karo syrup, water— who knows what the ingredients really are in the store-bought.” Klein doesn’t want anything potentially harmful splaying around. “Usually people go home and they smell like candy,” she smiles.

It’s good to know, too, that the “blood” isn’t going to damage the set. “The cast can aim for the white shirts. ‘White shirts only, not the light fixtures!’” she laughs.

“I always give a lot of credit to my cast,” Klein adds. “They work hard and endure a lot of bruises. It’s a very physical show, with slippery fake blood on the stage. And they’re learning some pretty complex dance moves.”

While the over-the-top horror is the fun part of the show—in which audiences are known to shout out key phrases along with the actors—there’s also an underlying plot. A group of teenagers finds evil lurking in an abandoned cabin in the woods, and they accidentally awaken evil zombies… and ambulatory trees.

“The first year we did it, I had a gal come in with her little 4-year-old daughter to buy tickets,” Klein recalls. “I said, ‘Are you sure this is going to be OK for her?’ And she says, ‘Suzie, who’s your favorite character in Evil Dead?’ and she goes, ‘The evil trees!’ and I’m like, ‘OK, she’ll be just fine.’ It’s totally up to parental discretion.

A SPOTLIGHT ON THE PEOPLE OF CENTRAL OREGON

S O U R C E

A Community Thread: JJ Riddell

A Community Thread: What concerns you or breaks your heart? And then what motivates you to do something about it?

JJ Riddell: Our community, we’re all one, but then there’s a whole bunch of different sub-communities and we’re all different. And everyone who’s a part of the community is different in some way. And when people don’t accept each other for their differences is what breaks my heart.

Sometimes when you look at someone, all you think is stereotypes that might surround them. And that just breaks my heart because people are too focused on what society might think of them instead of actually getting to know them. So, I just try to live my life the way that I want to and not have to worry about the stereotypes that surround me or don’t surround others with stereotypes. So, when I meet someone it’s just a blank slate. It’s not, “Oh, you look this way” or “You’re dressed like this” or “You have this type

ACT: What do we mean to each other, individual to individual?

JJR: Everyone that I meet has their own story. I view people as they’re each special; unique story. And getting to know them is awesome; and then also being able to share your story. I think there’s so much potential to share, to relate, or to even argue — if it’s respectfully. It’s not just the community that we’re in or the space that we’re in, it’s more connecting with people.

The connection can get lost because they don’t push for it. So, I think individuals are about connections and then getting to know one another and then growing with or helping them grow or them helping you grow in some sort of way.

ACT: Do you find with your peer group that there’s a lot of frustration and hope for change and passion?

JJR: There’s a lot of things going on in the world. And a lot of kids are finding their own thing that they’re passionate for.

health-related subjects. And then others might be climate change or more political or more in society and I think it’s frustrating for a lot of kids because when they try to promote or advocate for it, they can’t reach a lot of other people because they might have a different passion. I think some kids are frustrated because there’s so many problems that not everyone can keep up. But when they do put on marches or conferences or something like that it does make an impact and I think they start to see it more.

ACT: There seems to be a group of people who want to keep things how they are and they are unified and able to get quite a lot done. And the people who are advocating for change seem to be disjointed. Maybe we’re doing it wrong. We can’t beat it one issue at a time because the issues are growing so fast. I think what’s beneath the many different issues is the same root cause though—maybe it’s greed or selfishness.

JJR: I think that a lot of people are fighting for change, but then they can’t look at the overall picture and see what’s in common. I think it’s hard for all walks of life to find the common thing. Maybe it’s not so much right now they’re trying to change or make a big impact, but I think it’s more as training the next generation on how to act. And teaching them to be nice to one another or view everyone as an equal so you don’t have all these divides in society. Because there would be none if you treated everyone the same.

And I think a lot of people who are advocating for things had to find the way to open up their mind or to do the things that they do because they taught themselves that. But I think my generation and generations surrounding me are going to be more of teachers and then future generations are gonna be more of the people who are actually influencing it. I think it’s a process. It’s gonna take a while. I like to say that my generation is being an example, so that way-future generations can live up to it.

Hey Baby, (Who Cares if) it’s Cold Outside!

LITTLE BITES

By Nicole Vulcan

What do food cart lovers do when the weather turns? Turn to the indoor beer gardens and heaters, of course

Tambi Lane Photography

“A

mazing vibe, world-class food and rotating beer taps.”

According to Caleb Trowbridge, those are a few of the things that make The Podski a special place any time of year. Add in a fire pit, a new, heated building, food carts offering up warm hearty foods like stew, fried chicken and perogies, “Thirsty Thursdays” and “Hump Day” music and three televisions tuned to football and you’ve got a good time rain (snow) or shine.

Trowbridge owns the bar inside The Podski, the food cart lot tucked into a cozy spot at 536 NW Arizona in the Box Factory district. The Podski’s reputation as a cool, low key hangout doesn’t dim in the cooler weather months; in fact, it may shine even brighter. That excitement for the cold seems to be running rampant.

“We have lots of fun things to keep people happy during the wintertime,” explains Jessica Swartz, co-owner of River’s Place Tap House and Food Cart Yard located on Bend’s east side. Along with the 9-foot gas fire pit outside, there’s central heating inside the spacious building with garage doors that close completely, making it a “little like a restaurant experience,” according to Swartz, who owns the place with her husband, Paul Shorey. There’s also a cozy corner inside with live music every Thursday—and sometimes Fridays and Saturdays. Bingo, trivia, big screen TVs and a Beer Nerd series also keep the good times rollin’ when the temperature drops. Cold weather also means more dark beers on tap. Swartz loves to brag on the River’s Place food trucks serving up everything from hot,

Punk Noodle is Back

Chef Ben Phillips is at it again, bringing his homemade noodles to Bend for just one night only. This time find Punk Noodle at Boneyard Pub, where Phillips works at his day job. The main attraction is the noodles—buckwheat udon, classic ramen, Chinese egg noodles and rice noodles—but diners will get them in multiple flavor combos, including dandan, ramen-style and Korean rolled rice noodles. Also on the menu will be appetizers, desserts and specialty cocktails—plus an art show and live music from “doom surf chaos” band, The Kronk Men. Enclosed buildings help keep things cozy when the weather is uncomfortably cold outside.

messy sandwiches (Hogan’s Hoagie Stop) to Cajun shrimp and grits (Bluma’s Chicken & Waffles).

Bragging seems to be a common thread in the food cart lot world; The Bite’s Donni Davidson enthusiastically claims, “The Rogue Chef burgers are out of this world!” and “Rico’s Tacos’ green sauce is the very best in the land!” Those are two of the four carts featured at The Bite in Tumalo, another food cart lot ready for winter with live music every Wednesday and every other Saturday and a fire that’s always burning. “I just love our town and the community of Tumalo, and we still need a place to gather when it’s cold.

It’s fun to sit around the fire pit and get warm and have a beer,” says Davidson, who owns The Bite with her husband Steve Davidson.

Tambi Lane Photography

If fire pits and spicy tacos aren’t warm enough, perhaps heated seats will be.

David Staley invented such a thing. He’s the owner of The Lot Food Carts and Taproom at 745 NW Columbia in Bend.

As he puts it, “you get heat from above and from below” thanks to the high-up heaters inside The Lot’s shelter, and the heated benches. The double-decker bus at The Lot, housing Fricken Faco, also belongs to Staley, who reminds everyone that people can get food from one of the other awesome carts and can head upstairs in the bus to hang out and stay warm. Staley likes keeping things consistent year-round, which is why The Lot is still open until 9pm seven days a week no matter the weather. It’s also why Monday’s Bingo for a Cause, Trivia Tuesday, Open Mic Wednesday and Live Music Thursdays never end.

If your favorite cart or lot isn’t mentioned here, it’s not because they’re not bringing out the cold weather vibe; it’s simply because we’ve run out of space.

The moral of this story: Pray for snow and buon appetito!

Punk Noodle Takeover at Boneyard Pub Mon., Oct. 28, 6-10pm Boneyard Pub 1955 NW Division St., Bend $5-$25

Fill Your Pantry for the Winter Ahead

The Podski

The outdoor farmers markets might be done for the season—but an indoor version is coming up, aimed at letting customers stock up for the cold season.

The High Desert Food and Farm Alliance is the beneficiary for the fourth annual Central Oregon Fill Your Pantry event on Saturday, Nov. 9 at Tykeson Hall on the Oregon State University-Cascades campus. It’s a lot like a farmers market—except that things come in bigger allotments. On offer will be items such as 10-pound bags of onions or 20-pound bags of potatoes, at bulk prices.

“The only thing that should be traveling during the holidays is you to see your family, not your produce,” said event coordinator Megan French.

Pre-ordering for the event has already begun and goes through Nov. 3—an option that helps local producers plan ahead for how much to bring to the event.

That said, some producers will be at the event who won’t be part of the pre-order program. People can pre-order by going to centraloregonfillyourpantry.com.

It’s time to think about vermouth differently. A local sommelier offers his picks

By Lisa Sipe Lisa Sipe

Vermouth often plays a background role, but this writer—and other mixologists—advocate for giving it another purpose: main attraction.

A

t a recent tasting at Ardent, a celebrated restaurant in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, I asked for a boozy beverage to complement the sweet selection of the dessert course. The sommelier placed a delicate, stemmed shot glass in front of me and poured Dolin Blanc Vermouth de Chambér. I was surprised; I had expected a port, sherry or Madeira. The vermouth was refreshingly sweet and paired perfectly with the juicy hibiscus marshmallow with notes of sour candy. The somm overheard me gawking about the vermouth and I caught him say, “It’s often maligned.”

His description stuck with me. Vermouth is often cast as a supporting character in classic cocktails such as the negroni, Manhattan or martini. I definitely treated it that way, only using my Vya sweet vermouth, which smells of Christmas, in Manhattans. I never really thought about drinking it alone.

So what exactly is vermouth?

Vermouth is an aromatized, fortified wine flavored with an array of botanicals (spices, herbs, roots, bark, flowers or seeds). Like many spirits, it was originally used for medicinal purposes. Traditionally there were two main types of vermouth: sweet and dry, but over time a few more were created, including extra-dry white, sweet white, red, amber and rosé. Once opened, vermouth should be kept chilled because it begins to lose its flavor within a few weeks to three months. The back of the Dolin Blanc Vermouth de Chambér bottle has a spot where you can write the open date—a reminder that this

isn’t something you just set on the bar.

With such a short shelf life, it’s no wonder dry vermouth is famously used in cream sauces and for deglazing.

I wanted to learn more about vermouth, so I asked local Chef and Sommelier Dave Bodi his thoughts. He told me, “Vermouth is such a fantastic segment of the wine and spirits market. It is also unbelievably versatile due to the eclectic styles and countries producing it. Although vermouth is an invaluable tool for countless cocktails, it functions wonderfully as aperitif as well as a digestif.” If you aren’t familiar with those last terms, Bodi means vermouth can be used to stimulate your appetite before a meal as well as aid in digestion after a meal.

Bodi’s vermouth picks: La Quintinye Vermouth Royal Blanc, France, $20.99. A stimulating digestif or aperitif if served alongside some briny Mediterranean bites.

Massican Vermouth di Friulano, California, $22.99. Napa winemaker Dan Petroski uses barrel-aged Friulano (grape varietal typical in white wines) as well as distilling his own brandy for fortification. Serve straight up as an aperitif.

Vermouth Yzaguierre Blanco Reserva, Catalonia Spain, $18. Founded in 1884, Yzaguierre produces barrel-aged vermouth, among a host of other beverages. The Blanc is best highlighted with a touch of citrus zest on the rocks as an aperitif.

May the Source Be with You SC SCREEN October edition

By Jared Rasic

In Pod We Trust: I have a lot of scary podcasts I go to for the full-blown nightmare fuel, but none have kept my mind alive with terror all night more than the “No Sleep Podcast.” These short little tales of terror feel so strange and otherworldly that they linger long into the night.

Check out the episode about the Curse of the Gilded Echo…it’s a faux true crime creeper that’s a good place to start.

“Alice Isn’t Dead” is a serialized road trip into cannibalism, insanity and murder from part of the creative team behind “Welcome to Night Vale.” It’s not as funny, but the structure of the entire podcast being told from

the point of view of a woman driving a truck across the nowheres of America searching for her dead wife while telling her whole story into a CB radio is a good one. You can feel the night outside her window, ever encroaching and ready to swallow her whole.

It’s a couple of years old, but a lot of people haven’t discovered the deeply disturbing podcast “Rabbits” yet. Imagine if David Lynch created an alternated reality game in the 1980s that was causing people to disappear in the present. Set in the Pacific Northwest, “Rabbits” will absolutely get you ready for Halloween here in Central Oregon.

Plus, don’t forget “My Favorite Murder!”

It might be funny, but the crimes are real and still super disturbing. Their discussions of the Golden State Killer will remind you how scary that guy is and how life affirming it is that he was finally caught. Produced locally, also don’t miss the “Killer Cocktails” podcast, focused on true crime and... you guessed it... drinks.

Now Streaming I found a few pretty great horror movies over the last few weeks out there streaming in the wild. The Hulu original movie “Wounds” starring Armie Hammer and Dakota Johnson is deliciously creepy as it

Oh, NOOOOOO, NOT THE BEEEEEES!!!!!

follows a bartender who finds a phone in his bar that basically starts haunting him. It’s a slow burn that gets under your skin early on and then gets progressively creepier as it goes, building to a crescendo of madness and blood by the paranoia-fueled ending.

If you want some chuckles with your violence, “Little Monsters” is a horror comedy on Hulu about a kindergarten field trip group that gets attacked by zombies and have to be protected by a never-was rockstar and the kids’ religious and peaceful teacher (played by a perfect Lupita Nyong’o). A

perfect horror movie for people who want to be spooked just a little bit for Halloween.

But, if you’re in the mood for a stone-cold horror classic, Netflix just added “Candyman,” a deeply disturbing look at poverty, racism and a killer with a hook for a hand that’s also filled with bees. His whole body is filled with bees, not just his hand. Jordan Peele is getting ready to remake this, so now is the time to get scared by the bee-filled original.

Have a safe and spooky Halloween! I’ll be over here trying to scare the actual hell out of my actually evil cat.

an we just take a moment to be excited that Halloween is around the corner? I realize for the normies it might just be another random holiday stuffed into another random month, but for folks like me—the real weird ones—the entire month is spent searching for something genuinely scary. As someone who’s been a diehard horror devotee since fifth grade, it’s hard to find new media that genuinely sits in the brain like a demonic polyp and gives me weird feelings in my heart parts. But still I search. Here are a few things that might scare the hell out of you in time for Halloween.

A First Ascent of Link Sar

Local alpinist recalls his team’s triumphant climb to the summit of a mountain in Pakistan’s Karakoram

By Graham Zimmerman

Attempting the summit Starting at sunrise on Aug. 6, my partners, Chris Wright, Mark Richey, Steve Swenson and I, left our small bivouac tents in place on a snow ledge at 22,500 feet and launched for Link Sar’s summit.

It was our sixth day on the route. Below

us lay 7,000 feet of rock, ice and snow. It was some of the hardest and most complex climbing that our team of award-winning alpinists—with over 100 expeditions between us—had ever completed.

At 4pm, we were stopped 20 meters below the summit of the mountain by seemingly bottomless, vertical and unconsolidated snow. Wright and I, who had led most of the way up the mountain, were exhausted and mentally fried. Compounding our concern was the fact that our anchor to the mountain was composed primarily of me, hunched in a deep hole in the snow. We had gotten ourselves into a tight spot with no clear way up or down, a mere 20 meters from the summit. Plus, the sun was going down.

The fact that Wright and I had led most of the route did not mean that Richey and Swenson, both in their sixth decades (Wright and I are 36 and 33) had not been exceptionally valuable team members. Their experience in these mountains had been the foundation of the planning and strategy that had gotten us this far. And now, 20 meters below the summit, they shined.

With many years of experience climbing in the terribly loose and steep snow of the Peruvian Andes, Richey launched upward, belayed by Wright. Meanwhile, Swenson started digging into the mountain looking for an anchor. Seemingly at the same time, as the hues along the horizon started to turn orange and purple, they both succeeded, and shortly after, we embraced on the top of Link Sar as the sunset exploded around us painting the Karakoram range in a stunning alpenglow.

Descending during the final day on the mountain.

We had made it to the summit safely, and we had made our first step to getting back down in one piece. Ahead of us lay three hard days of descent down the complex and challenging terrain. But with continued diligence and patience, we made it down without mishap.

A look back This first ascent of Link Sar had taken a maximal physical and mental effort from our entire team. It required all of our collective experience and strength to maintain our safety margins. All the intense decision-making required to make the ascent safely came from a very democratic, discussion-oriented process. We remained ready to turn around if needed right up until the very end. Survival was paramount, but we gave ourselves the opportunity—and in the end, we made the first ascent of the stunningly beautiful peak.

The values of balancing opportunity and a properly defined definition of success are not unique to the great ranges, or big, new routes in the mountains. These values are just as important at home. The next time I’m skiing in the Three Sisters or climbing at Smith Rock, I’ll think back to those last 20 meters of climbing on Link Sar and will work to maintain the same balance throughout my entire life.

I hope that this story will help you to do the same so that that we can all enjoy the amazing mountains around Central Oregon and come home safe while giving ourselves the opportunity to get to the top.

Keep it sharp out there.

or me, alpinism—the art of climbing in the alpine environment—is all about an equation that balances providing oneself with opportunities for success with defining success in a way that encourages survival. Alpine mountain climbing is a practice that distinctly lacks guarantees. I am, therefore, left with a wide variety of potential outcomes for which to prepare myself. Likewise, when I look at my measures of success, I need to place the most important things first: my life, the lives of my climbing partners, and in turn, my ability to return to the mountains to try again.

This summer, in the depths of Pakistan’s Karakoram mountain range, this equation between success and survival was put to the test as my team and I attempted to make the first ascent of the unclimbed 7041-meter peak, Link Sar. The summit of Link Sar can be best described as what a child would draw if you asked them to draw a steep and wild mountain; pointy and beautiful, with a ferociously organic symmetry in the features that fall from its tall summit. It’s also a peak that had rebuffed decades of attempts from some of the world’s best climbers, creating a prize that, to those of us invested in the art of alpine climbing, was terribly attractive.

A Resurgence of West Nile

And how building a haven for bats can help protect humans and livestock

By Jim Anderson with insecticide; in the long run that’ll do more harm than good by killing friendly insects. If you have water ponding up near the barn, drain it. You’ll have a happier and healthier ranch without the use of chemicals to solve a problem.

This being late in the warm season in which mosquitoes are normally found flying about is the good news; weather is on our side. With that, people have plenty of time to look for the best control there is for pestiferous mosquitoes— and that, reader, is bats.

If you’re one of the fortunate people who have bats flitting about your place in summer, that’s the best news possible for ridding your area of mosquitoes. Some may even be native to your place. Because those pesky mosquitoes can multiply so fast and become a real nuisance, they are the best food possible for bats.

Get busy and build the necessary daytime that shelter bats need to occupy your air space and you can bet they’ll be gobbling up mosquitoes carrying West Nile virus. Meanwhile, horses— and people—can spend summer nights outside in some degree of peace.

Many older homes and outbuildings are sheltering bats without the owners knowing it. If you find that to be so in one or more of your structures, all you have to do is put up a bat shelter, seed it with the guano (bat poop) from your existing colony and then block the old entrance and the bats will move in and automatically become the best public health helpers you can find.

That doesn’t mean you can ignore those warm water puddles that cause you to track mud into the house. Drain

Jim Anderson

One local bat, the Townsend’s big-eared, eats mosquitoes all summer and sleeps in the lava caves all winter.

those things and don’t allow them to fill up again.

If you find mosquito larvae in your stock tanks you may want to find out if your stock will tolerate a thin coating of natural oils (such as olive or vegetable oils) on the surface of the water.

Mosquitoes larvae can’t breathe when there’s a thin coating of oil on the surface of their home, and when females try to lay eggs they are usually killed, as the oil will block their breathing spiracles. If your stock don’t like the oil, place a stick floating on the surface to steer the stock to untreated water and leave the oiled surface undisturbed to do its job.

If you feel you must use a pesticide, check with Oregon State University Extension before you use any chemical control methods in the stock tanks.

If you have standing water of 20 gallons or more, you can use Gambusia mosquitofish for control of larvae and cause no problems.

Well, I’ll take that back; if a belted kingfisher discovers them, they’ll shout “Hooray!” in that loud and striking call, and spend more time eating your fish than you may like. However, the entertainment value of kingfishers is pretty high…in my book.

If you want to build the daytime roost for bats, send me an email at jimnaturalist@gmail.com and I’ll email the plans back to you. As a start, find some old flannel garments to donate to the cause. The baffles in the bat house are lined with flannel to keep bats happy on cold, windy days, and on cold nights when they can’t patrol your place.

here’s been a small rash of West Nile virus in eastern Oregon this year. West Nile is a virus transmitted by the native Culex mosquitos. It was first detected in the U.S. in 1999 and has since spread to 45 states.

A horse in Crook County became ill in September. The vet looking into it found it to be the first to test positive for West Nile virus in Crook County since testing began in 2004. County health officials found the horse had spent time in both the Prineville and the Post/Paulina areas, but had not traveled outside of the county during its exposure period.

West Nile virus is a single-stranded RNA virus that causes West Nile fever, and is a member of the family Flaviviridae, specifically in the genus, Flavivirus.

The organism is also related to Zika virus, Dengue virus and yellow fever virus, and is primarily transmitted by mosquitoes.

Livestock are particularly vulnerable to developing West Nile virus when bitten by an infected mosquito. However, only about one in 150 humans will develop the most severe form, which can include West Nile encephalitis or meningitis.

Over the years, researchers have discovered West Nile virus is transmitted through the bite of infected female mosquitoes in the species Culex. Male mosquitoes are flower children and among the group of insects known as pollinators.

Even though it’s late in the fall season, Crook County health officials are advising people in the area to take precautions against mosquitoes to avoid the risk of infection.

“Take precaution” doesn’t mean chemically treating every body of water

Refining the Home Search with current inventory. According to the National Association of Realtors, 50% of Americans found their home online. Realtors found 28% of homes for their clients, and the remaining sources of sales come from yard signs, relatives or friends and print ads. When looking online, make sure to use a thorough and all-encompassing approach. Look past first impressions; it’s amazing what gems are hidden behind awful photos. Explore videos and virtual tours to get a more comprehensive look at a property. Utilizing Google Maps satellite images can save time and energy and is a great way to familiarize yourself with the area and lay of the land. If available, utilize the “street view,” which gives a more accurate perspective of surroundings.

At that point the top home choices should be clear, and it’s time to contact a realtor and schedule showings to get inside and get a complete view of the property.

While in the home, take pictures and videos for reviewing later. Look through the windows; buyers tend to focus on what’s inside the home and forget to check out the views. Take your time, imaging living in the home and running through your daily activities to know if the house will truly work for your needs. If you’re getting serious about a home, visit it at different times, like during rush hour or in the evening when all the neighbors and their pets are home. Viewing the home in person will often confirm or change opinions on the must-have list. House hunting can be full of compromise, so having an open mind is crucial to success.

utumn is truly a spectacle in Central Oregon. One could easily get lost gazing at the sea of trees responding to shorter days and cooler nights with yellows, oranges and brilliant reds. Fall has a way of calming down the hustle and bustle, evident from the less-crowded streets, breweries and trails. Homeowners are nesting, gathering firewood and winterizing lawns in preparation for the cold months ahead. For homebuyers, this slower-paced season is an opportunity to find the “perfect” new home.

In the fall and winter, homebuyers will have more inventory to choose from, and it’s when they’re most likely to find the best deals. Recent Bend real estate data revealed that in September the median home price dropped $35,000 from the previous month, and homes are sitting on the market a bit longer, too. Price and inventory is just one piece of the puzzle; it’s important that buyers are adequately prepared and well informed when starting this journey. Before all else, buyers should secure financing and get pre-approved by a lender and educated on loan options, down payment and closing costs. Sit down and take time to make a list of all the must-haves, attributes of the home that are mandatory and also the extra inessential wants. It’s normal for the must-haves and wants list to change and evolve throughout the process.

Browsing home search websites is a great way to research and get familiarized

Currently, home has 3 rentals professionally managed. Two bdrms in main house and 1 bdrm/bath in each guest quarters. Updated kitchen. Private setting. 7 acres. Shop and RV parking.

I moved to a new city five years ago, I knew nobody except two female co-workers, who became my first friends. I have since met wonderful, talented, artistic people who are more my style. I no longer work with these ladies, and I’m just not interested in hanging out with them anymore. When they call to get together, I keep saying I’m busy, but they’re not getting the picture. How do I break up with them without being mean?

—Trapped When you break up with a romantic partner, there are comforting cliches you can trot out, like “It’s not you; it’s me,” “You deserve better,” and “We can still be friends.” When you break up with a friend, where do you go with that? “We can still be people who hide behind mall kiosks so they don’t have to speak to each other”?

It helps to understand the underpinnings of friendship. We like to think of ourselves as rational and discerning people with very good taste, and naturally, we believe this shapes our choice of friends. In fact, personality psychologist Mitja Back and his colleagues find that a major driver of whom we’re friends with is “mere proximity” -- living on the same block, working together, or, in Back’s study, being randomly assigned seats next to each other in a college class.

Location, location, location! Really special, huh?

Still, maybe you feel a little guilty about exiling these ladies from your life, because you used them to have some somebodies around when you knew nobody. However, they hung out with you willingly. It’s not like you were some odious character they were forced to go to brunch with at gunpoint.

The kindest approach, of course, is to keep distancing yourself and hope they get the message or just give up on trying to get together. You do say that the “take the hint!” approach hasn’t been working. But are their calls and texts so screechingly bothersome that it’s worth it to go all rip-the-Band-Aidoff? If you decide it is, you could say, “You guys have been so kind to me, and I’ve enjoyed our times together, but I’ve gone through some personal changes, and I don’t think we’re such a great match anymore.”

Be prepared: They may press you to tell them more. For maximum kindness, stick to this sort of vague

statement. Don’t go all truthful on them: They were human placeholders, the sidewalk furniture of friends, like curbside chairs you dragged home so you wouldn’t have to ask your dates, “Hey, wanna stand in my living room and watch Netflix?”

Same Mold, Same Mold I seem to keep getting together

with the same messed up guy over and over again. Basically, the men I’m attracted to all have the same issues (emotionally unavailable, fear of commitment, etc.). Each time, I tell myself I can make things different. How Amy Alkon do I stop doing this?

—Broken Picker Your problem isn’t being attracted to guys who turn out to be messed up. It’s going forward with them after you discover that. It’s like seeing the sign “Shark-Infested Waters” and then saying to yourself, “They probably just say that so the lifeguards don’t have so much work. And I mean, do I really need my arms? Both arms?”

Research by psychologist Roy Baumeister on self-regulation -- professorese for self-control -- finds that it has four components: standards, motivation to meet those standards, self-monitoring to make sure you’re doing that, and the will to control urges to do what you know you shouldn’t be doing.

You probably believe you have standards, but chances are you haven’t thought them out to the point that you can tick off what they are. Not having a solid grasp on them means you can’t monitor whether you’re following them and take action if you aren’t. Now’s the time to change that.

Write down a list of your standards: your must-haves for a guy you’re with, the qualities you can’t do without.

When you’re interested in a guy, don’t just hope he hits the marks; ask questions that draw out the sort of man he is and also look at his behavior. If he falls short of your standards, make yourself move on. Yes, make yourself.This will be hardest the first time and if you really like a particular guy. Eventually, it’ll become easier to weed out the guys with issues, though you may need to work on your own before you’re comfortable with guys who’d make you happy. Should you find yourself jonesing for a project, opt for something safe, like gluing elbow macaroni all over your car, as opposed to being like the storm chaser dude who’s all surprised when he gets blown into the next state and impaled by rebar.

ASTROLOGY By Rob Brezsny

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): “I am glad that I paid so little attention to good advice,” testified poet Edna St. Vincent Millay. “Had I abided by it, I might have been saved from some of my most valuable mistakes.” This is excellent advice for you. I suspect you’re in the midst of either committing or learning from a valuable mistake. It’s best if you don’t interrupt yourself! Halloween costume suggestion: the personification or embodiment of your valuable mistake.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Cleopatra was an ancient Egyptian queen who ruled for 21 years. She was probably a Capricorn. All you need to know about her modern reputation is that Kim Kardashian portrayed her as a sultry seductress in a photo spread in a fashion magazine. But the facts are that Cleopatra was a well-educated, multilingual political leader with strategic cunning.

Among her many skills were poetry, philosophy, and mathematics.

I propose we make the REAL Cleopatra your role model. Now is an excellent time to correct people’s misunderstandings about you—and show people who you truly are. Halloween costume suggestion: your actual authentic self.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Around the elev-

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Author Amy Tan describes the magic moment when her muse appears and takes command: “I sense a subtle shift, a nudge to move over, and everything cracks open, the writing is freed, the language is full, resources are plentiful, ideas pour forth, and to be frank, some of these ideas surprise me. It seems as though the universe is my friend and is helping me write, its hand over mine.” Even if you’re not a creative artist, Taurus, I suspect you’ll be offered intense visitations from a muse in the coming days. If you make yourself alert for and receptive to these potential blessings, you’ll feel like you’re being guided and fueled by a higher power. Halloween costume suggestion: your muse.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): More than a century ago, author Anton Chekhov wrote, “If many remedies are prescribed for an illness, you may be certain that the illness has no cure.” Decades later, I wrote, “If you’re frantically trying to heal yourself with a random flurry of half-assed remedies, you’ll never cure what ails you. But if you sit still in a safe place and ask your inner genius to identify the one or two things you need to do to heal, you will find the cure.” Halloween costume suggestion: physician, nurse, shaman, healer.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Cancerian artist Marc Chagall (1887– 1985) was a playful visionary and a pioneer of modernism.

He appealed to sophisticates despite being described as a dreamy, eccentric outsider who invented his own visual language. In the 1950s, Picasso observed that Chagall was one of the only painters who “understood what color really is.” In 2017, one of Chagall’s paintings sold for $28.5 million.

What was the secret to his success? “If I create from the heart, nearly everything works,” he testified. “If from the head, almost nothing.” Your current assignment, Cancerian, is to authorize your heart to rule everything you do. Halloween costume suggestion: a heart.

enth hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month, the eleventh sign of the zodiac, Aquarius, will be capable of strenuous feats; will have the power to achieve a success that surpasses past successes; will be authorized to attempt a brave act of transcendence that renders a long-standing limitation irrelevant. As for the eleven days and eleven hours before that magic hour, the eleventh sign of the zodiac will be smart to engage in fierce meditation and thorough preparation for the magic hour. And as for the eleven days and eleven hours afterward, the eleventh sign should expend all possible effort to capitalize on the semi-miraculous breakthrough. Halloween costume suggestion: eleven.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): The Dead Sea, on the border of Jordan and Israel, is far saltier than the ocean. No fish or frogs live in it. But here and there on the lake’s bottom are springs that exude fresh water. They support large, diverse communities of microbes. It’s hard for divers to get down there and study the life forms, though. The water’s so saline, they tend to float. So they carry 90 pounds of ballast that enables them to sink to the sea floor. I urge you to get inspired by all this, Leo. What would be the metaphorical equivalent for you of descending into the lower depths so as to research unexplored sources of vitality and excitement? Halloween costume suggestions: diver, spelunker, archaeologist.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Author Robert Musil made a surprising declaration: “A number of flawed individuals can often add up to a brilliant social unit.” I propose we make that one of your mottoes for the coming months. I think you have the potential to be a flawed but inspiring individual who’ll serve as a dynamic force in assembling and nurturing a brilliant social unit. So let me ask you: what would be your dream-come-true of a brilliant social unit that is a fertile influence on you and everyone else in the unit? Halloween costume suggestion: ringleader, mastermind, orchestrator, or general.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): “We have stripped all things of their mystery and luminosity,” lamented psychologist Carl Jung. “Nothing is holy any longer.” In accordance with current astrological omens, Virgo, your assignment is to rebel against that mournful state of affairs. I hope you will devote some of your fine intelligence to restoring mystery and luminosity to the world in which you dwell. I hope you will find and create holiness that’s worthy of your reverence and awe. Halloween costume suggestion: mage, priestess, poet, enchantrix, witch, alchemist, sacramentalist.

ARIES (March 21-April 19): Do you have any skill in fulfilling the wishes and answering the prayers of your allies? Have you developed a capacity to tune in to what people want even when they themselves aren’t sure of what they want?

Do you sometimes have a knack for offering just the right gesture at the right time to help people do what they haven’t been able to do under their own power? If you possess any of those aptitudes, now is an excellent time to put them in play. More than usual, you are needed as a catalyst, a transformer, an inspirational influence.

Halloween costume suggestion: angel, fairy godmother, genie, benefactor.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): “One language is never enough,” says a Pashto proverb. How could it be, right? Each language has a specific structure and a finite vocabulary that limit its power to describe and understand the world. I think the same is true for religion: one is never enough. Why confine yourself to a single set of theories about spiritual matters when more will enable you to enlarge and deepen your perspective? With this in mind, Libra, I invite you to regard November as “One Is Never Enough Month” for you. Assume you need more of everything. Halloween costume suggestion: a bilingual Jewish Santa Claus; a pagan Sufi Buddha who intones prayers in three different languages.

43 VOLUME 23 ISSUE 43 / OCTOBER 24, 2019 / THE SOURCE WEEKLY

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): In his novel Zone One, Scorpio author Colson Whitehead writes, “A monster is a person who has stopped pretending.” He means it in the worst sense possible: the emergence of the ugly beast who had been hiding behind social niceties. But I’m going to twist his meme for my own purposes. I propose that when you stop pretending and shed fake politeness, you may indeed resemble an ugly monster—but only temporarily. After the suppressed stuff gets free rein to yammer, it will relax and recede—and you will feel so cleansed and relieved that you’ll naturally be able to express more of your monumental beauty. Halloween costume suggestion: your beautiful, fully exorcised monster.

The OG vaporizer that pre-dates those you hold in your hand

By Josh Jardine

M

any have used a Volcano vaporizer at some point. It’s arguable the company that makes them, Storz and Bickel, set the platinum standard for precise vaporization. Markus Storz, a German graphic designer, used a heat gun to develop the first Volcano in his basement in 1996. In 1998, he received a patent for his soon-to-be iconic detachable vapor “balloon” bag and brought the first Volcanos to market in 2000. Jürgen Bickel became a partner in 2002, and the first American models became available in 2003.

Their attention to detail was legendary. As Leafly writes, “The medical-grade materials and quality management systems... that Storz & Bickel built into their manufacturing process certified their company and their products as the first medical-use vaporizers, ever.”

This shiny gadget is indeed shaped like a volcano. The original analog version used a dial to change the temperature, using markers between 1 and 9. The subsequent digital version provided a touchpad to program a precise temperature for vaporization.

Heated air passes over a chamber holding ground-up cannabis (or concentrate on a pad), slowly filling up a self-selected-sized balloon, made of a turkey bag-like material, using a very powerful fan.

Oh yes...the fan.

I own both analog and digital versions of the Volcano, used with both medical patients, and when producing recreational vaporizer stations. For medical users, the balloon allows ease of use, and desired effects can be maximized with the temperature controls.

For social use, it’s a fun consumption experience, whether sharing the balloon or finishing it yourself. In those settings, the noise of the fan is secondary to the benefits, and pleasure afforded watching the balloon fill.

But for daily home use, I found the fan noise to be a hindrance when watching a movie or listening to music. I pull it out when the noise isn’t a consideration, but it had fallen from my daily rotation collection of vaporizers.

Then the new Volcano Hybrid review model arrived and has been my daily go-to consumption device for the past 30 days. The impetus for that choice is the “Hybrid” addition, which provides a swiveling silicone tube, aka whip, which allows you to sip your vapor— silently.

It sits atop a newly modified chamber, which you still fill with ground flower or concentrates, using the aforementioned pad. The digital keypad allows a changing of temperature in 1-degree increments.

The Hybrid reaches the programmed temperature much faster than previous models. Because it still fills balloons, users can attach the whip and turn the fan on.

This provides a unique sensation of having one’s face inflated like the balloon itself, while feeling as though you are taking the cannabis vapor from a firehose. This turbo charge feature was a delightful new way to modify my experience, but that’s just me.

The Hybrid is Bluetooth-enabled, and the app is a must-have. It wouldn’t work with my Android phone but did fine with an iPad. It offers two new options: “Iterations,” which allowed me to set up a repeating pattern of temperature changes within a predetermined amount of time. I can pop on the whip and not have to change the temperature during a session, taking the temperature low to high and so on over 30 or more minutes.

The “Workflows” option works best with a balloon and allows the extraction of specific combinations of cannabinoids and terpenes by varying the temperature while filling the balloon. You can become your own marijuana mixologist to obtain super specific tastes and effects.

I took it to the NW Cannabis Club, and over three hours, people approached me and began sharing similar stories and memories of the balloon, and the effects (“It used to get me so high” was a common shared statement.) A dozen people tried their own flowers and concentrates, all enjoying the whip option while discovering new flavor notes.

At $700, this isn’t an investment to be taken lightly, and is beyond the budgets of many. But it’s a legitimate medical grade vaporizer, and if in your budget, highly recommended.

Editor’s note: Oregon Gov. Kate Brown’s temporary ban, in effect as of Oct. 15, includes only flavored vaporizer products, and does not include marijuana- or terpene-flavored products. See an update on this week's News page.
