ormer Oregon State University
student Tyler Lazell Warren was
convicted of first degree rape, sexual
assault, and burglary last week. The jury
deliberated for a bit over five hours,
and the judgment came down largely
based on the victim having been
determined incapacitated. Two of the
charges can get a person up to 20
years in prison, but we’ll have to wait
for sentencing. All I really have to say
about this is to express my utter disgust
at the Gazette-Times commenter that
said this:
“While no one deserves to be raped,
I would highly recommend all males
who are thinking about having sex
with any female on a college campus
should carry a sobriety kit, blank form
to be signed by both consensual
parties before a notary of the public
(probably should have one on duty
24/7 on campuses), and at least two
(sober) unattached witnesses. Two
more victims of the very sick and
twisted ‘new’ better society.”
On a lighter note, a Lebanon man
by the name of Britain James
Sylvester Spikes (In no way am I
joking. Look at my name. Would
I joke?) was busted last week by
the Linn County Sheriff’s Office for
downloading and electronically
distributing child porn. This time
taking a look at the DemocratHerald for some commentary, one
individual decided to leave a whale
of a “scientific” defense of child
porn from none other than www.
shfri.net, an organization that hides
pedophilia behind international and
domestic declarations of rights—and
an organization that either ignores or
denies the trauma incurred by victims.
On an actual lighter note, because
frankly I’m sure we’ve all had enough
of the above, one Mike Merzenich,
a graduate of Lebanon High School
back in 1960, is headed to Norway
to collect an international award
for neuroscience: the Kavli Prize. The
professor emeritus at UC San Francisco
will, amongst a dozen other accolades,
collect a $1 million prize that will be
shared with two colleagues. His work
involves mapping the mechanisms that
allow brain functions to be remodeled
via neural activity. I have been assured
by our staff neuroscience experts that
this is really freakin’ cool.

hat’s better than Saturday
morning cartoons? Saturday
night ones. That’s what you’re in for
at the sixth annual Animation Fest
coming up on Saturday, Aug. 6.
They’ve got exactly 100 short
cartoons, curated to play over
nine hours from sundown
to sun up. Better yet,
if you make it to see
the sun you’ll be
dubbed a member of
the “Breakfast Club”
and rewarded with
pancakes.
None of the cartoons are
more than 15 minutes long,
with the oldest one made in 1908 and
the newest from just this year. You’ll
be able to reminisce over NickToons,
The Golden Age of Animation,
Adult Swim, MTV Cartoons,
and even more from all over the
world. Overwhelmed? A
program will be provided
to help you remember
everything you just
watched. Beer, cider,
coffee, BBQ, and
snacks will also be
available to accompany
you on the couch, grass, or
wherever you perch yourself in
the yard. There will also be a few
TVs around with video games to play
throughout the night.
AnimationFest 6 will be held at 3675
SE 3rd Street in Corvallis and is both
green-friendly and free, but a dollar
donation is recommended. Be aware
that this event is for ages 21 and older.
So grab your blankets, a tent, and
something to keep warm in and head on
over to south town to celebrate over a
hundred years of cartoons.
For more information—and
there is a LOT more—please visit

R
ole in the Zine Scene
Counterculture Offerings from Salem, Corvallis
By Ariadne Wolf
F
rom just around the corner with
Salem’s Do-It-Yourself community
to quite literally on the corner, Salem
and Corvallis boast a surprisingly wide
variety of independently published
chapbooks, or “zines,” available for the
avid reader. Many of these offerings
feature the offbeat, b-side experience
Corvallis’ art scene is known for.
Interzone, the most convenient location
downtown to pick up new issues,
features several zines for a mere $3
each. These offerings include Dingbat!,
On Sadness, and The Worm, among
others. This café is one of a few ideal
locations in Corvallis for a new artist
hoping to connect with their local
community of independent artists and
fans.
Danny of Dingbat! explained, “In the
age of [the] Internet, I thought it would
be cool to go back to a more tangible,
handheld medium.”
Danny spends months gathering jokes
and artwork, generating an issue
whenever he feels he has sufficient
material to entertain his audience.
For him, Dingbat! is an important
contribution to the punk-art scene of
Corvallis.
Danny insisted, “I think anyone
who likes cartoons, humor, and has
somewhat subversive sensibilities may
enjoy Dingbat!
Madison Killian of the online Sucker
Magazine said that she found the
Corvallis indie scene very welcoming
when she moved here, explaining that
she had lots of immediate offers to work
on her publication. We are “very girl
power-centered,” she said, though she
is open to anything that is unique and
off the beaten path. She is currently
working on a Kickstarter campaign to
launch a print version. She is hoping to
have it online by Jan. 1.
Katherine Pedersen has worked on both
On Sadness and The Worm. She agreed
with Killian, saying of Corvallis that
“People know each other’s names here,
what they are about, and what projects
they are working on.”
Cindy Crabb, author of the popular
zine Doris, is Pedersen’s inspiration.
She said, “It was the first exposure I
had to a type of writing that was full of
heart and immediately relatable.” From
there, she read everything she could
and ultimately decided to begin making
them.
Though her first outing simply
discussed swings and the fun to be
had on them, she eventually reached
out into deeper and more emotionally
impactful areas.
As she stated, “I believe that the
personal is political and that it can
be a small revolutionary act to speak
honestly about what is going on in your
life and in your head.”
Pederson created On Sadness to help
people experiencing depression, taking
the step in the second issue of directing
the words towards those attempting to
aid a partner or close friend working
through the same. She was inspired
by the suicide of her partner, and the
extreme depression experienced by two
of her close friends.
The process of collaboration and sharing
herself with others has clearly been
of great benefit to Pedersen. “While I
like making zines on my own, it’s been
a really fulfilling experience seeing
what people create for The Worm.
Even though there are a lot of different
perspectives, the pages always have a
sense of harmony and conversation.”
Interzone offers artists the opportunity
to engage with others creating DIY
artwork of all kinds. Killian and
Pederson both describe the positive
experiences they’ve had engaging with
artists working in other mediums, even
musicians; Pedersen mentioned that
she hopes to see further collaboration in
this area in the future.
Danny explained, “Corvallis is filled
with a surprising variety of creative
folk. I’ve met musicians, visual artists,
writers, metal/wood/glass artists,
dancers, jewelry makers, and more.”
Though life in a small town can be
isolating and sometimes lonely, these
and other artists are reaching out
to offer wisdom, support, and lived
experience to those around them. Zines
offer a unique, relatively low-cost way to
share one’s artwork with the world and
ease that loneliness.

If you haven’t had a chance to cruise
Interstate 84 up near La Grande and
Baker City, you really haven’t seen
Oregon. I know it’s dangerous, with
marauding sand people from the
south, but in all honesty it is probably
the most beautiful place I’ve been on
Earth, second only to the Scottish
Highlands. And of course some woods
near Chuluota, Florida after eating
mushrooms. Only place I’ve ever seen
a two-story ambivalent first-story rock
Queen’s “Bicycle” on an oboe the size
of 10 oboes...
Moving right along. So the blaze
itself, a whopping 800 acres in
size, had already forced an ironic
evacuation of Deadman Pass
(where I slept once for like 12
hours returning from a trip
to Vermont). The evacuation
was one of the most populous
in the history of Deadman
Pass, consisting of nine entire
human people. Making matters
worse, a shelter had been set up
for them… and they never showed
up. According to a local expert,
it was likely that they just went
somewhere else.
*cough*
I’m pretty sure some other stuff
happened, but I’ve had to pee for like
two hours and as such am suffering
from reduced attention space. Systems
compensation and all that.
Recently you may have been turned
away due to closures of the highway,
as firefighters were busting their
a*ses to take down what has been
known as the “Weigh Station Fire”
that was burninating the countryside
just east of Pendleton. Sorry, not
the Canadian Whisky of Hood River
Distillers in Hood River, Oregon, just
over a two-hour drive from Pendleton.
Which is the Pendleton that has
nothing to do with the Pendleton
Whisky that I now really, really wish I
had. Just so many sorries all around.
Invasion of the Corgis
On the 30th a crapload of Corgis—
those short ‘n’ longs that look like
they should come popping out of
a quarter machine—were spotted
running around on Cannon Beach,
undoubtedly taking dumps and faceplanting in the sand. Why? Well, here
in Oregon we have a thing called the

that people like the dogs, they

from OSU Professor Bill Ripple AMERICAN
By Matthew Hunt
M
ost of Earth’s large terrestrial
mammals currently face
extinction. Not just African elephants,
Bengal tigers, or the last three
northern white rhinos, or
cheetahs, or gorillas, or
some subspecies you’ve
never heard of, but a
majority share of this
planet’s big, wild, hairy
land animals face deplorably
dwindling populations—mostly due to
overhunting and habitat loss.
“In fact, 59% of the world’s largest
carnivores and 60% of the world’s
largest herbivores are classified
as threatened with extinction on
the International Union for the
Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red
List. This situation is particularly dire
in sub-Saharan Africa and Southeast
Asia, home to the greatest diversity
of extant megafauna,” expounded 43
wildlife and conservation scientists
from six continents in the July 27,
2016 issue of BioScience.
In the article humbly titled, “Saving
the World’s Terrestrial Megafauna,”
lead author Bill Ripple, OSU
Distinguished Professor of Ecology,
the Global Trophic Cascades
Program of the Department of
Forest Ecosystems and Society,
and dozens of other wildlife
scientists stated their objective:
“to demonstrate a consensus
of opinion amongst the global
community of scientists who study
and conserve these animals, thereby
emphasizing to the wider world the
gravity of the problem.”
We face a two-part challenge, they
explained. First, there exists a need
to more effectively implement and
expand current intervention methods
at scales relevant to habitat size.
Second, to fundamentally alter the
way our species interacts with other
large mammals, we’ll need an order
of magnitude increase in funding to
implement a worldwide conservation
framework as well as the political
clout to wield it.
The authors admit that “none of our
arguments are new and that our
prescriptions are far easier to write out
than to accomplish.” Still, the paper
warns, “Under a business-as-usual
scenario, conservation scientists will
soon be busy writing obituaries for
species and subspecies of megafauna as
they vanish from the planet.”
“We must not go quietly into this
impoverished future. Rather, we
believe it is our collective responsibility
as scientists who study megafauna to
act to prevent their decline.” Instead,
let us rage against the dying of the
rhinoceros.

One Month Deep in the PoCorvallis’
Go First Taste of an Augmented Future
By Moriah Hoskins and Johnny Beaver
I
f there’s one thing people are even
more tired of hearing about than
Donald Trump, it’s Pokemon GO
(PoGo). It features shallow gameplay
and a simplistic battle system that has
turned off a not-insignificant number of
old school Pokemon players; even the
flashiest feature, the augmented reality
implementation that allows for Pokemon
to be seen in the real world, improves
the ease at which you catch Pokemon if
it’s shut off. However—PoGo is not really
a game.
As you’ve no doubt already read, the
way in which PoGo takes our reality and
uses it as a roadmap is revolutionary in
that it compels us to explore by taking
aspects of a travel guide, making it far
more contemporary and adding multiple
levels of reward, all wrapped up in a
package that demands social iteration.
Honestly, fun or not, to hell with PoGo
itself—it’s the technology that will truly
revolutionize the way we interact with
our physical world in an increasingly
digitized future. PoGo may be the very
first mass (not the actual first) stumble
into all of this, but there are many other
parallel technologies under development.
WaveRay, for example, is a bit of tech
from a Swiss company that puts an
augmented reality GPS interface in
the windshield of your car, literally
projecting your route onto the road.
But until that future comes, the major
player involves capturing strange
creatures, and even a month after its
release the hubbub in Corvallis has
yet to die down. While it’s easy to spot
players (just look for people out in the
bushes), how have our local businesses
reacted to the trend? Are the rumors
of crazed shopkeepers with shotguns
cashing off Team Instinct goons true?
PoGo vs. the Corvallis Business
Community
Not really. While some businesses
“Flat Tail will drop lures to bring
people,” said Dre Oglesby, a player who
was sitting outside the brewery. While
a trip to Flat Tail yielded no admission
of using lures in this way, it’s a damn
clever idea and they should probably
start.
Dre Oglesby
Wendy Beck Nicols
chose not to respond (undoubtedly they
were busy chasing Venonats off of their
property), we heard back from some
locals and the attitude ranged from
positive to nonchalant.
“The thing I like about it in our
neighborhood is that people who
never get fresh air are out getting
fresh air,” said Wendy Beck Nichols
from Corvallis Floor Covering, whose
business is located adjacent to a gym—
diligently guarded by Team Mystic at
the time of the interview.
Shawn Bonnichsea and Richard Dugan,
two local players, emerged from behind
the Spaghetti Factory a short while
later, just after taking that gym for
Team Mystic as well.
“LBCC is the only place I’ve received
pushback. Security guards don’t like
me playing it there,” said Bonnichsea.
Linn Benton Community College’s
Public Security Officer, Adam Weaver,
noted in a later interview that “nobody
is allowed [on campus] after 10 p.m. for
liability reasons.” Campus is open from
6 a.m. until 10 p.m., but after that, only
security and custodians can be on site.
Back at the Spaghetti Factory, they
have noticed PoGo as well, noting the
increased number of people in the area.
“I see everyone walking by the
river with their phones... one of my
employees informed me this was a
gym,” said Billy Brown, the manager.
Cyclotopia has remained fairly calm
despite a gym being located outside
their window.
“I haven’t noticed much, but people
stopping outside,” said Trevor Heald.
Some businesses around Corvallis are
even suspected of putting out lures
for Pokemon that can be purchased
or earned in-game. Lures “attach” to
certain PoGo locations and attract
Pokemon to the area for anyone to
capture.
Tax Return Preparation
PoGo vs. the PoPo?
The City of Corvallis Police Department
has gotten involved, releasing a
statement on its Facebook page that
warns people to pay attention to their
surroundings—and to not Pokemon and
drive.
Lieutenant Duncan said that the
Corvallis Police Department has
received a few calls about people
looking suspicious, but who ended up
just being in search of Pokemon.
As for safety concerns, “It’s a matter of
not getting so into your game that you
don’t wander onto private property,”
said Duncan.
Ghosts of Corvallis’ PoGo Future
What a lot of people don’t realize is that
the game’s initial release was a beta, or
a testing version. Its creator, Niantic,
has stated that many changes are on
the horizon, each roll-out of which will
likely reintroduce a bit of the craziness
of the early days. Of course, this being
Corvallis, our players have been fairly
well-behaved, but it’s surprising
how slow local businesses have been
to accept this trend as a revenuegenerating source. But, hey, it’s been
an exhausting summer.
Market of Choice, Dutch Bros., and
some others have stuck signs out front
letting people know about all of the
wonderful Pokemon that can be found
at their establishment, true or not, but
as technologies like this become more
commonplace we are sure to see more
creative capitalizations by some of our
favorite local haunts.

here’s a great secret hiding next
to the road along Highway 34.
It’s about seven miles past the tiny
community of Alsea, along the banks
of the beautiful Alsea River. The land
is lush with wild grasses, barley, and
hops, and an eclectic selection of beer
is being brewed behind the doors of
a large, lodge-like building. Siuslaw
Brewing, a relatively new and small
one-barrel brewing operation, is
quietly gaining a name for itself
throughout the area. And at Siuslaw
Brewing, it truly is a family affair.
The business was started just over
a year ago by Duane Miller, his wife
Tammy, their son Jesse, and their
German-born son-in-laws Dominik
and Daniel Heidemeyer.
Duane, who formerly owned and
operated an excavation business for
35 years, quit his job and sold off his
heavy machinery to dedicate his time
to operating Siuslaw Brewing.
“We’re just trying to have a peaceful,
fun life more than we have in the
past. This has been a great thing for
our family,” Tammy said.
The brewery’s namesake comes from
nearby Siuslaw National Forest.
“I worked in the Siuslaw National
Forest and live surrounded by
national forest property,” Duane said.
With many years of homebrewing
experience behind him, Duane
decided to open and operate a
commercial facility in January
2015. Siuslaw Brewing obtained a
brewing license last June and has
been busily brewing new beers ever
since. Duane’s German son-in-laws
help him with the German styles of
beer they brew, and Jesse has also
contributed a good number of recipes
to the mix. Duane says his favorite
beer to drink from their ever-growing
collection is the vanilla bean oatmeal
stout.
Customers can currently get growlers
filled on-site and the brewery
distributes kegs in nearby coastal
towns like Yachats and Waldport, as
well as in Dallas. The beer is also on
tap locally at Deb’s Café in downtown
Alsea.
“We haven’t had any trouble selling
our beer,” Tammy said.
Siuslaw Brewing recently brewed up
a new favorite among drinkers—the
Grass Clippings Cream Ale—a recipe
that Jesse developed. The cream ale
is about 6% alcohol by volume and
uses malted barley that was grown
nearby by the family and malted onsite at the brewing facility.
Duane said he has plans to sell the
locally grown and harvested barley
in the future. He’s learned all about
the malting process, mostly through
reading an informational book and
his own ingenuity. Siuslaw Brewing
prefers to use the Full Pint barley
seed from Oregon State University
for their barley crops.
The malting process includes
harvesting the barley, steeping it
in water, letting it absorb the right
amount of moisture, and growing,
germinating, and sprouting it, all
before the seed turns into sugar,
Duane explained.

Downtown Corvallis
“You stop it from growing at that
point by heating it up and drying it
out at different temperatures and
moisture levels,” he said.
With the help of his family, the head
brewer also designed and built a
small malting system.
“We need to scale up. I’d want to do
3,000- to 4,000-pound batches [of
malted barley] at a time,” Duane
said.
Siuslaw Brewing would like to
expand the brewing facility in order
to brew more beer in the future, too.
The one-barrel brewery is about as
“small as you can get,” according to
Duane.
“This is our pilot system. We intend
to expand and test more recipes in
the future,” he said. The family is
currently playing the expansion by
ear and enjoying their current flow of
customers and production levels.
Duane would like to eventually hire
employees, too, and Dominik wants to
open a tasting room on the property
and make use of the gorgeous
outdoor space. Tammy helps with the
business side of things.
Siuslaw Brewing is located at 16558
Alsea Highway. Prices for beer fill-ups

Mass Timber and the Future of Building
By Matthew Hunt
Corvallis Set to Have Hand in Tomorrow’s Skyscrapers
A
rchitects, designers, and engineers
are getting a bigger set of building
blocks, all thanks to new technologies
set to transform the way we build tall
buildings—but we’re not talking about
steel or concrete. Mass timber buildings
are put together with much larger
wooden structural components than
traditional wood-framing or post-andbeam construction. Massive wood walls,
floors, roofs, and stairways prefabricated
in Oregon forests and sawmills will
be vital in the evolution of future city
skylines.
Yard is a four-story, 16,000-square-foot
North Portland office constructed earlier
this year. The building’s CLT roof, floors,
and glue laminated timber frame were
produced by D.R. Johnson Lumber Co.
over in Riddle. There’s another neat
fact; they’re the only domestic producer
of certified structural CLT panels in the
United States, right here in Oregon.
Teaching Old Materials
New Tricks
In 1885, Chicago’s Home Insurance
Building first used structural steel in
a weight-bearing frame. It stood 138
feet tall, and had a third of the mass of
similar masonry structures. Never much
to look at, the Home Insurance Building
was demolished in 1931. Celebrated as
the world’s first skyscraper, it changed
the way people thought about building
in a profound way. Steel had effectively
redefined our skyward boundaries.
Why Wood?
The production of concrete and steel
accounts for about 8% of global CO2
emissions. However, wood is a bit
different. Since trees spend their lives
pulling CO2 from the atmosphere, wood
makes a decent solid carbon storage
system. The fewer steps between a
tree and its new life as a building
material, the more efficient the storage.
Skyscrapers built with new precisionmachined wood panels offer a much
smaller carbon footprint than traditional
methods. In terms of energy and waste,
wood building components are cheaper
and cleaner to produce.
That’s lovely, but if we look to the
Sakyamuni Pagoda of Fogong Temple
in China’s Shanxi province, we’ll see
that it was more than slightly taller at
220 feet. Oh, and it just happened to be
built completely out of wood... more than
800 years earlier, way back in in 1056.
Despite centuries of strong earthquakes,
there it stands today.
Point being, nature figured out how to
reach for the skies long before humans
ever gave it a go. Trees were achieving
those heights standing on one leg well
over 100 million years ago. While concrete
and steel will continue to be the dominant
forces in tall buildings, the progression of
building technology will provide lessons
from nature that not only promise new
form, but multiple scales of function.
Now, picture a piece of plywood: thin
sheets of wood stacked and pressed
together. The grain of each layer is
perpendicular to layers above or below it.
This cross-directional pattern results in a
relatively strong and dimensionally stable
building material. In the 1990s, European
manufacturers started experimenting
with much larger cross-laminated timber,
called CLT panels.
CLT scales up this cross-grained
Everything You Need
For The
idea. Panels are made with regular
dimensional lumber like two-by-fours
already produced by sawmills. Three
to nine usually perpendicular layers of
lumber are tightly stacked and pressed
into big panels. They’re similar in cross
section to a fresh game of Jenga—instead
of a three-inch square toy tower, CLT
panels become 30-foot floor sections, or
five-story wall components. Panels are
limited by the size of the press, and what
can fit on a truck. Most panels measure
less than 35 feet, but some are up to 65
feet long.
Panels can be precision machined into
enough shapes and sizes to make Ikea
and Lego enthusiasts salivate. Imagine
passing a flat-packed building on the road
into town. Yes, it looks exactly like that
lovely coffee table and bookshelf new in
the box. Adopted into the International
Building Code last year, use of this
technology is catching on worldwide.
Corvallis’ Role in Building
the Future
The first building-wide structural use of
CLT panels in the United States, Albina
Using traditional construction methods,
the first 4,000-square-foot layer of floor
would have taken more than a week to
complete. The first layer of CLT panels
was installed in less than four hours.
Windows, doors, air ducts, service
access, stairs, and elevator shafts can be
precision machined off-site. These new
technologies could save construction
schedules months, not to mention the
reduction in noise and construction
traffic.
Albina Yard’s designers, Lever
Architecture, will be constructing a
much larger project next: a 12-story
mixed residential/commercial project
called “Framework” in Portland’s Pearl
District. The project was one of two
winners awarded $1.5 million in the
U.S. Department of Agriculture’s U.S.
Tall Wood Building Prize Competition.
According to Lever Architecture, “The
USDA grant will allow the project to
engage the exploratory phase, including
the research and development necessary
to utilize cross-laminated timber (CLT)
and other engineered wood products
in high-rise construction in the United
States.” The building will be one of the
first tall timber structures in the country.
Corvallis itself stands poised to become
the U.S. hub for developing CLT
technology. Oregon State University’s
College of Forestry’s Wood Science &
Engineering department researchers and
associated partnerships are providing
the data to confidently design, build,
and certify these types of mass timber

Forest resources have long been
part of this state’s industry and
culture. Mass timber construction
could provide a new link between
rural and urban communities
along with an entirely new
supply chain of job opportunities,
including laminators, machine
operators, specialty contractors,
as well as connector hardware and
equipment manufacturers.
CLT manufacturing could help
revitalize natural resourceoriented rural communities,
and a future CLT industry may
provide opportunities for the sale
of previously less marketable timber
resources, such as beetle-killed lumber
and smaller diameter logs. This could
help fund future forest restoration efforts
and help land managers create healthier
landscapes.
Responding Well to Criticism
Historically, fire concerns have been
the principal reason for limiting wood
buildings to four stories or less. These
concerns have rightfully been expressed
towards mass timber construction as well,
but physics is reassuring. Traditional
wood framing has a much higher air-tofuel ratio than solid slabs of wood. Want
a larger fire, don’t bother with big logs; go
get some pallets!
Researchers suggests mass timber
elements not only burn steadily and
predictably, but continue to perform very
well in terms of structural integrity, even
after hefty mass losses. Wood Science &
Engineering researchers are currently
testing fire performance of locally
produced CLT wall and floor assemblies.
Fire behavior will pretty definitely be
a major aspect of testing for any future
mass timber products.
There are many other questions
clamoring for answers. The development
of effective performance models is highly
dependent on issues of serviceability,
durability, thermal comfort, and other
factors. And of course there’s still that
pesky earthquake issue.
As we have been constantly reminded by
our tin-foil hats, a Cascadia subduction
zone or some other earthquake is certain
to be along directly. Proven seismic
performance, and high strength-toweight ratios of CLT and other mass
timber building methods make them very
attractive options for new construction.
The 1995 Kobe earthquake measured
6.9 on the moment magnitude scale.
European researchers and CLT
manufacturers used the tri-axial record
of that event as input in an earthquake
shake table test on a seven-story CLT
building in 2007.
CLT panels for this structure were made
in Italy and shipped to Miki City near
Kobe, Japan. The 76-foot-tall building
was assembled in just over a week,
and after simulating several severe
earthquakes, the structure survived with
no residual deformations other
than a few bent screws. The entire
thing was then disassembled and
shipped back to Italy to be reused.
CLT Just Crawling Into the
Future? Not for Long
Despite growing interest in
the U.S. and abroad, practical
adoptions of these new building
techniques are only growing about
as fast as the trees. We stand at
an audacious chicken-or-the-egg
moment in time—while architects
and investors are enamored with
the speed and efficiency of CLT
construction, production is limited. This
creates a bottleneck for orders, and in
turn perpetuates the production issues.
If 5% of new construction under 10
stories in the U.S. used CLT technology,
the material alone would be worth an
estimated $1.4 billion annually. The same
scenario indicates a market opportunity
for 0.9 billion board feet of timber volume.
This would represent more than triple the
estimated global CLT production capacity
in 2013 (estimates based on the 2013 CLT
Handbook: US edition).
Given the efficacy of mass timber
materials and this sort of market
potential, it is unlikely that things will
be inching along forever. And when the
dam bursts, we’ll likely be at ground zero
for the next mass evolution in skyward
construction.
Timber Payments Disappointingly
Low
Not All Counties Created Equal
By Anthony Vitale
O
ver the last four years Oregon
counties have received less and less
funding from federal timber payments.
For counties like Benton, this is not
the end of the world—due in part to
population, taxable property, property
value, and in some cases careful forward
planning. However, not all counties
were created equally and some rely
more heavily on the federal subsidies.
The issue of federal timber payments
arose during the 1990s when spotted
owl protection coupled with economic
changes led to a rapid decline in
logging livelihoods. To lessen the blow
in Oregon counties and other affected
states, the federal government opted to
offer payments.
This year combined BLM and Forest
Service federal timber payments to
Douglas County has cut service costs
and reduced staff by 30% over the
last 10 years. It now relies on reserve
funds to maintain critical public safety
services. One problem facing the county
is property tax. About half of Douglas
County’s 5,071 square miles is public

Oregon counties will dip below $100
million. While this is the lowest yet,
there has been a steady decrease over
the last four years.
According to a 2016 Secretary of State
Audit report, Benton County receives
2.2% of its Governmental Fund revenue
from federal BLM timber payments and
0.3% from federal forest service timber
payments. This is good compared to
Douglas County which receives 15.5%
and 10.8% of its revenue from respective
timber payments.

at The Arts Center in the “I am” exhibit,
April 2015 as part of the inVISIBLE

intriguing characters since the 1970s. Fisk
excels at capturing complex emotions
with humor and sensitivity. Baker is an
interdisciplinary artist and educator who
once lived on the Oregon Coast, a place
where temperate rain forest meets the

Saturday, August 6
Calapooia Brewing Company, 140 NE
Hill St., Albany. 7:30 p.m. Free.
When this column began, one of the first new
bands I ran into was… Rusty Hinges. I love their
song “Tater Patch”—not just because it says
“tater”—and have been known to dance naked
to it while doing the dishes. What can I say? If
you’re not familiar, expect an amalgamated sound
featuring elements of bluegrass, blues, and more.

Majestic Science Theatre
3000: The Giant of Metropolis
Majestic Reader’s Theatre
Fall Auditions
Majestic Theatre, 115 SW 2nd St.
7:30 p.m. Cost: $8 to $10
Majestic Theatre, 115 SW 2nd St.
7:30 p.m. Free.
From a very young age I knew I liked robots, space
princesses (cooties and all), swords, lazers (with
a z), cyclops, and all of that campy goodness.
Naturally, I was a huge fan of Mystery Science
Theater 3000. Well, if you’re like me then you’re
in luck: The Majestic is doing a parody where
local “improv-ers and actors will be cynically
disemboweling golden age science fiction films
and PSAs no matter how loud you scream, ‘Down
in front!’” It’s love, its loud, and they’re doing
The Giant of Metropolis! Super scientists, big
musclemen, Atlantis, and intrigue, this is a classic
that The Majestic says “will make you laugh and
cry, because you’re laughing so hard.” I totally
agree. For more information, visit www.majestic.
org.
Auditions for fall productions of the Majestic
Reader’s Theatre are here! Eight cast members
are wanted for Fahrenheit 451 under the direction
of Jonathan Jesse Pedersen. Talk Radio, directed
by Rus Roberts, is looking for two female and
seven male actors. Man from Earth, which will be
directed by Bryan Smith and Alycia Olivar, needs
six male actors and three female actors. Reader’s
Theatre productions involved actors performing
script-in-hand, which allows for a unique style
of performance that sidesteps memorization.
Interested? Come out and audition for these
wonderful shows! Dot your I’s and cross your T’s
at www.majestic.org.
From the press release, “The fourth annual
Midsummer Arts festival returns to Monteith
Riverpark on the first Saturday in August. Join us
for tons of free artsy fun, with hands-on activities,
theater and dance exercises, and a craft fair full
of local DIY artists. Get your Albany Visitor’s
Association “Passport” stamp, too.” We know not of
these bizarre Passport stamps in our technologically
advanced Corvallis, but Monteith is a beautiful
location for an event like this (just don’t lie down
near the water drunk in the middle of the night… a
cat tried to eat my eyebrow). Seize the opportunity
to get out of town without burning too much
gas. Albany is right around the corner and you
foo—…. I mean, you lovely people, never enjoy it!

Bard in the Quad:
Love’s Labour’s Lost
Memorial Union Quad, 2501 SW
Jefferson Way. 7:30 p.m. Cost: $15
general admission, $10 students and
seniors, $5 for OSU students.
Eleven seasons in, there’s really only one relevant
thing to say about Bard in the Quad: it’s almost
always excellent. That’s not sensationalism, I truly
mean excellent. This time around they’re putting
on Love’s Labour’s Lost, with performances held at
7:30 p.m. from Aug. 4 to 7 and Aug. 11 to 14 right
on the Quad. Honestly, what’s not to love about
casual, outdoor summer viewings on the classics
performed by people who love them? No seating
is provided, but you’re welcome to bring low
lawn chairs and blankets. If you suck at adulting
and can’t remember to dress yourself for the
occasion, please remember warm clothing. If you
want to sneak in a picnic… it’s cool, don’t sneak.
You’ll look suspicious. For truly Shakespearean

Children’s Survival Camp.
Cheadle Lake Park, 37919 Weirich
Dr., Lebanon. 8:30 a.m.
Tired of music, tired of the heat? Have $200
burning a hole in your pocket and want to
abandon your child for a day so you can climb
in a hole and sleep for once? Visiting experts
from Coyle Outside Summer Camps will teach
your little goofballs how to survive in the wild.
This includes problem solving, knot tying, shelter
building, traps, fire, and all sorts of other cool
sh*t. This is a “parks and rec” style day camp
that runs Monday to Friday from 8:30 a.m. to
5 p.m. every day from today until the 12th.
There’s even before and after care provided
by the Boys & Girls Club, wowaweewa! For
incoming students in grades 3 to 7, only, sorry…
but the admission gets them a snack. Space is
limited because every cool kid on Earth wants
to learn to set fires. You can register at the Boys
& Girls Club at 305 S 5th Street, Lebanon. For
more information, check out their website at
www.coyleoutside.com or call 541-258-7105.
Community Movie Night
Wednesday, August 10
Darkside Cinema, 215 SW 4th St.
7 p.m. Free.
Meet the Author: Cory Frye
Every Tuesday at the Darkside Cinema: fantastic
old movies complete with period accurate
news reels and cartoons. The lost, the cult…
the classic, generated by all the bodies that
helped forge the industry. Please do treat
yourself—you’re unlikely to regret it unless
you trip and fall on your face walking there.
Best theater in town and Corvallis’ only
independent movie house, donations are
graciously accepted and benefit the renovation
of the Darkside Cinema. For the pertinent
info, visit www.cmnyk.wordpress.com or
www.facebook.com/freemovienightcorvallis.
The People’s Pint
Block 15, 300 SW Jefferson Ave.
All day. Free.
I’m pretty much down for anything called
The Peoples’ Pint. Even if it meant being
dipped in honey and fed to fire arts, I’d do it.
Thankfully none of that is necessary, as this
is just an awesome event being held at the
downtown Environmental Center, and it will
be overflowing with locally sourced food and
independent craft beer. Ten percent of all food
sales will be donated to the center. To plug
your brain into what’s going down, visit
www.corvallisenvironmentalcenter.org.
Grass Roots Books & Music, 227 NW
2nd St. 7 – 8:30 p.m.
Go ahead. No, no, I’m waiting. Tell me you’re
not interested in a book called Murder in Linn
County, Oregon. That’s what I thought. Written
by one Cory Frye, this retells a bit of history
that goes like this: “On June 21, 1922, Linn
County sheriff Charles Kendall and Reverend
Roy Healy drove out to the town of Plainview
to arrest a moonshining farmer named Dave
West. By the end of the day, all three men were
dead. Cory Frye delivers a riveting, detailed
account of these shocking and tragic crimes
that haunted Linn County for decades.” Yep,
sounds incredibly interesting. The author will
be reading and signing books at this event,
will you? I mean, be at the event… Please
don’t read out loud or sign things. Please dig
yourself up some event updates via www.
grassrootsbookstore.com.

Imagine Coffee Open Mic
Imagine Coffee, 5460 SW Philomath
Blvd. 7 – 9 p.m. Free.
Are you talented, but cranky? Do you
always say stuff like, “Oh God, open mics…
so bad. Always so bad.”? Then howabout
you put the mic where your mouth is and
give it a shot? Seriously, the only people
that complain that much about something
secretly like it—just ask my wife! ::drumroll,
crash:: But seriously, there is a ton of talent
in this town and Imagine Coffee is one of
the most comfortable places to show it off,
as well as take it in. What the hell is it the
kids are always saying? YELLOW? YOLO? For
up to date information, please visit www.
imaginecoffee.net. Also, eat their food and
drink their coffee. Your internal organs will
thank you. Just probably not with words…
sorry.
