Screens and haste define even the best modern-day relationship
By Nancy Long
F
hat’s with TV and men, anyway? I have a brand-new apartment on the water furnished with the latest furniture styles, gleaming appliances and fabulous artwork. My girlfriends come over to ooh and aah over my silky crimson drapes, plush soft bath towels and crystal blue f lower vases. But my men friends? All they see is the HDTV. The remote is in their hands fast after that first hug and hello. At least I never have to worry about other women. My boyfriend gets so crabby when I complain about his TV watching that he’ll threaten time alone with “the other mistress.� At his own house, he has a new HDTV with a bigger screen than mine and with more channels, and “she� doesn’t quip sarcastic commentaries on the danger of radiation burning the surface of your eyeballs from hours and hours of screen play. (I suspect she has no cellulite, either—all sleek smooth lines). Going with a bunch of gals to see Sex and the City 2, what scene brought the most moans and groans from my fellow females? When Big bought Carrie a HDTV for their bedroom for their anniversary! He was thrilled. Guess how she felt. Comments echoed all around me: “All my husband does is watch TV.� “He only wants me for my Sony.� “If a fire broke out, the Samsung would be grabbed first!� What has happened to us? The new age of tech has brought us unspeakable advances in communication. I marvel at how our senses can be stimulated, imagination transported and relationships developed across oceans in a blink of an eye. I love a great movie in 3D just like anyone else. Avatar and Up were incredible. But our habits have fallen into a new wave of tech obsessions. It’s affecting how we relate—and how we date. Mention a trip to the art gallery, my guy slumps. Best Buy? The car keys are already in his hands!
Our high-speed tech lifestyle reaches into all facets. Recently, I read an article about speed dating. Five minutes for each person, then the timer goes off and you talk to someone else for five minutes. Fast, like an assembly line. Whatever happened to making time to get to know one another? My daughter works in a restaurant in the city and tells me how families bring their children in and place the DVD players in front of them at the table in order to calm and amuse the kids so Mommy and Daddy can have some “dating time.� (Of course, most of the time, cell phones are whipped out and texts are typed in between the appetizers and dessert.) Adults are getting carpal tunnel syndrome with too much finger-punching, while teens are known to text 600 times a day! (What? Furthermore: how? That’s 60 an hour, 10 hours a day. When do they go to the toilet?) In the good old days, a woman would throw a man’s clothes out the window when he strayed. Now she throws the HDTV and remote out with the trash—and him, too. On a lighter note, my guy is great. He’s witty, has a good heart, makes me dinner— shuts the tube off when we dine—and laughs at my stupid jokes. But wouldn’t it be nice, once in awhile, to sit on the deck, hold hands and watch nature TV? The moon, the water, the boats sailing by? Not as exciting as CSI, but it sure would feed my soul and give us a little time to get to know each other again.
At least I never have to worry about other women.

Hey, Sarah Palin: Is that “Drill, baby drill� still working for ya? Now with all the trauma of the Gulf spill, Palinites—like Meg Whitman and Sam Blakeslee, now running for office—are saying kill the bullet train. This reminds me of former football coach George Allen of the Rams and then the Redskins, and father of former Republican senator George Allen. He had the mantra “The future is now,� meaning he traded his future, his draft picks, for veteran players, for his now, and those teams lost their future for his now. He then left his mess for another coach to fix. I call that reactive. The bullet train would save millions of gallons of wasted aircraft fuel, and could be the beginning of weaning ourselves off fossil fuel. Many countries have already done this. I believe Jerry Brown and John Laird are more proactive about our future.
Obama has basically continued with Bush’s policies. Let’s be blunt about this. In Afghanistan, he went beyond Bush. He escalated the war. He went along with this policy of the surge. And he ordered more drone attacks on civilians in Pakistan in his one year in office than Bush had done during his last term. So for the people of that region, Obama’s presidency has been a total disaster. And it’s not working. They have a puppet leader, Karzai, who’s developing his own sort of dynamic, because he’s grown very wealthy through corruption and thinks that he has genuine support. One man’s terrorist is another’s freedom fighter, and what some governments consider potential terrorists are simply those who don’t agree with government policies. And the ones who are saying that this is an unwinnable war are absolutely right. It’s a

stalemated war. They can’t win it unless they destroy half the population of the country. So that is what people see. And then, why are they surprised that people are so hostile to the United States in that part of the world?

UC invests $53 million in two diploma mills dominated by a regent By Peter Byrne
0
year ago, Richard C. Blum, then chairman of the regents of the University of California, spoke at the Milken Institute’s Global Conference 2009, held at the Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles. The corporate confab was hosted by Michael Milken, the “junk bond king� who went to prison in the aftermath of the savings and loan fiasco in the 1980s. Milken, who is barred from securities trading for life by federal regulators, has since re-created himself as a proponent of investing in for-profit educational corporations, an industry that regularly comes under government and media scrutiny in response to allegations of fraud made by dissatisfied students. At the conference, Blum, who is the husband of Sen. Dianne Feinstein and a
professional Wall Street speculator, sat on a panel called “The New University and Its Role in the Economy.� The panel focused on how universities can best serve the corporate jones for tech-savvy employees by recruiting smart freshmen with scientific talent. One panel member urged treating universities as “laboratories of business ideas and products.� As someone who oversees investment policy decisions for the University of California’s $63 billion portfolio, and as the largest shareholder in two forprofit corporate-run universities, Blum had a unique perspective to share at the conference. “It’s like anything else,� he said. “It’s how you market it.� Marketing strategy aside, Blum has taken on two seemingly disparate roles—one as an advocate for a nonprofit university and the other as an owner of two for-profit educational corporations. However, as a regent, Blum has
taken actions that, intentionally or not, have enhanced the value of his vocational schools. Are his loyalties conflicted? For several years, Blum’s firm, Blum Capital Partners, has been the dominant shareholder in two of the nation’s largest for-profit universities, Career Education Corporation and ITT Educational Services Inc. The San Francisco–based firm’s combined holdings in the two chain schools is currently $923 million. As Blum’s ownership stake enlarged, UC investment managers shadowed him, ultimately investing $53 million of public funds into the two educational corporations. The regents’ conflict-of-interest policy requires them to “avoid the potential for and the appearance of conflicts of interest with respect to the selection of individual investments. . . .

which the official has a conflict of interest.� And the California Political Reform Act of 1974 provides civil and criminal penalties for officials who ignore conflicts of interest—as UC makes clear in ethics-training presentations specifically created for university officials. The Board of Regents, however, is self-policing and tolerates situations that cause others concern. John M. Simpson of Consumer Watchdog, a nonprofit education and advocacy organization based in Santa Monica, comments: “It is hugely inappropriate for the University of California to invest in for-profit colleges when it should be promoting public education. And something stinks when university investments end up in companies largely controlled by a regent. To the average fellow on the street, this would seem to be a conflict of interest. It is up to Mr. Blum and the UC treasurer to explain how it could not be a conflict of interest.�

ue to serial tuition hikes by the UC regents, their gutting of many classes and educational programs, and the imposition of a 15 percent reduction of in-state admissions to the university, the gateway to higher learning in California has seriously narrowed. As a UC regent, Blum voted in favor of all of these measures, and such actions have indirectly benefited his corporate colleges. But his schools are not the only ones profiting from the financial disaster that besets many public universities. On March 13, the New York Times summed up the situation, reporting that many chain schools, including ITT Educational Services and Career Education Corporation, “have exploited the recession as a lucrative recruiting device while tapping a larger pool of federal aid . . . selling young people on dreams of middle-class wages while setting them up for default on untenable debts, low-wage work and a struggle to avoid poverty.� The Times noted that for-profit schools are directly benefiting from cuts in education, especially in California where state-funded universities and community colleges have been “forced to cut classes just when demand is greatest.� Indeed, ITT Educational Services recently reported to its shareholders that due in large part to “higher unemployment rates among unskilled workers,� company revenue increased by $300 million, to $1.3 billion (double its take in 2005). Responding to a recession-induced increase in demand for vocational training, ITT increased its tuition by 5 percent; 70 percent of ITT’s revenue comes from federal tuition-aid programs. And ITT’s profits rocketed in tandem with new enrollments, even as UC and other public universities were turning away students for lack of programs.

n the U.S., the dominant vocational education corporations are the University of Phoenix, Corinthian Colleges, Strayer University, Kaplan University (owned by the Washington Post Company), Career Education Corporation and ITT Educational Services. Collectively, these companies operate hundreds of schools and teach hundreds of thousands of students, most of them eligible for public and private financial aid. The chains offer training for such technical professions as radiological technician, beautician, automotive mechanic, medical billing clerk, web designer and massage therapist. But they

also offer degrees in engineering, computer science and business. Increasingly, they are promoting online education, which limits their operational costs, even though virtual courses are often not suitable for teaching nursing, cooking or car repair. On a fairly regular basis, government regulators—including the U.S. Department of Justice—have accused chain schools of preying upon low-income individuals and active military service members. Typically, state and federal agencies report, chain-school recruiters load students down with highinterest-rate loan packages that, on average, amount to $30,000. As a result, fewer than 70 percent of enrollees graduate. Those who do graduate with two-year associate’s degrees often find out that the curriculum did not prepare them for the technical requirements of the jobs they seek. When dropouts and underpaid graduates default on their student loans, the taxpayers remain on the hook.

lum’s investment bank entered the for-profit education business in 1987, when he purchased a large block of shares in National Education Corporation, an Irvine-based vocational school that specialized in awarding mail-order diplomas. He joined the company’s board of directors, sitting alongside former U.S. senator Barry Goldwater and David C. Jones, a former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Two years later, according to a report in the Los Angeles Times, Blum got in hot water when angry shareholders filed a lawsuit contending that “the company issued rosy financial statements while Blum and other directors were selling their shares.� The shareholders claimed in court documents that Blum sold $2.7 million worth of shares at about $24 per share after he learned, a day before the public announcement, that the company president planned to resign. When the share price bottomed out at $3.50 a share after the announcement, Blum reinvested in the troubled company, booking a profit. A new president was hired in 1994 to reform the school and bring it into the age of computerized learning. By 1995, Blum had gained control of 11.5 percent of National Education Corporation stock after combining his firm’s holdings with that of a nonprofit investment fund, Commonfund, for which Blum worked as an investment adviser. (Commonfund manages investments for more than 1,400 universities, including UC.) In 1997, Harcourt, the textbook publisher, bought National Education Corporation for about $750 million, or $21 a share. Blum and his private partners profited handsomely. After he became a regent in 2002, Blum greatly increased his investment in for-profit education. In June 2005, Blum Capital Partners bought 5 percent of the stock, worth $24 million, in Lincoln Education Services Corp., a $300 million operation with 32 campuses. Blum also acquired large blocks of shares in ITT Educational Services and Career Education Corporation. These two purchases followed dips in the companies’ stock prices brought about by allegations of corrupt practices made against them by government agencies. In the case of ITT Educational Services, federal and state regulators investigated the company in 2004 after shareholders and students alleged that it falsified student attendance, grades and job placement records in order to keep federal financial aid flowing. When the news broke, the price of ITT shares halved.
Blum Capital Partners pounced, purchasing reams of devalued ITT stock. It soon owned the largest block of stock in the company, achieving a 10 percent ownership stake in 2006. Not long afterward, the investigations were closed with no findings of wrongdoing. By May 2010, ITT’s revenue exceeded $1.3 billion, and Blum Capital Partners’ stake was valued at $415 million. Similarly, Blum Capital Partners bought shares of Career Education Corporation, a $1.8 billion operation that serves 90,000 students, following a corruption controversy. In 2004, Career Education Corporation was investigated by multiple federal agencies after whistleblower lawsuits alleged that the school had allowed failing students to remain enrolled in order to keep its pipeline to federal grants and loans tapped. In 2005, after 60 Minutes televised an unfavorable story about the chain school, the value of its stock dropped by more than half. Blum Capital Partners bought in for $33 million. By May 2010, its stake had grown to $508 million, making Blum’s firm by far the largest and most powerful shareholder of the chain school. A partner with Blum Capital Partners, Greg L. Jackson, sits on the board of Career Education Corporation. University of California is an investor in both educational corporations.

ven as Blum was buying stock in Career Education and ITT Educational Services, UC financial records show that the university’s investment managers were actively buying and selling these same stocks to the tune of $53 million. The university was not just holding on to these stocks to accrue value over time; it was daytrading them in large amounts, as much as $2 million a trade, thereby affecting the daily price of these stocks. When UC treasurer Marie Berggren was questioned about the propriety of UC investing in Blum’s for-profit college chains, her spokesman, Steve Montiel, replied by email, “The Treasurer’s Office doesn’t track Regents’ holdings in making decisions about security selections, though Regents’ holdings are disclosed as a matter of policy.� In other words, the treasurer does not review the regents’ financial disclosure statements, which are public records, for potential conflicts. Of course, UC’s investments are also public records available to the regents, so a regent could easily avoid conflicts, should he or she choose to do so. Blum did not respond to repeated requests for comment. But UC spokeswoman Lynn Tierney called on his behalf, saying that the university recruits its students from the intellectual elite of applicants. Therefore, “UC is not losing students to Blum’s vocational schools, and there is no conflict of interest,� she claimed, declining to present evidence that thwarted UC students were not attending for-profit colleges. Regardless, the bottom line is that UC is investing tens of millions of public dollars in two for-profit school chains largely controlled by a regent and Wall Street arbitrager who sits on UC’s investment committee. Shown the documentation used to support this story, Noah Stern, president of Associated Students at the University of California, says, “Student trust in the regents was already shaky. In light of this revelation of investment abuse, we need a structural overhaul of the university governance system.�

The Rapture Right spoof the apathy of atheism By Daedalus Howell
?
ublicists should take lessons from the Rapture Right. In lieu of the humdrum press release, branded tchotchkes or complimentary tickets, the purportedly hardcore, right-wing Christian duo simply threaten a boycott. Responses from the media run the gamut from “Huh?â€? to bona fide alarm and even the occasional 700-word column in an alternative news weekly. The Rapture Right represent the vanguard of contemporary ultra-conservative religious activism. Their public-relations arsenal brims with all order of contemporary messaging tools, from social-media profiles and educational videos on their website TheRaptureRight.com to original music and forays into public protest. Of course, their penchant for pedantry and relentless religiosity keeps the ranks small. Their total headcount numbers two—just enough to enjoy one of the more elaborate inside jokes to be conceived, immaculately or otherwise, in Sonoma County. As the Rapture Right, the doctrinaire duo Timothy and Trevor Christian position themselves, among other things, as “a hardcore Christian electro-goth band that has been writing music for God through God for God to listen to for the past couple of years.â€? Doff the pageboy do’s and pancake makeup, and they’re Glen Stewart and Daniel Walker, respectively, whose mĂŠtier is an arresting hybrid of performance art, activism and satire that raises eyebrows—and sometimes fists. Like their corporate counterparts the Yes Men, the Rapture Right deconstruct the codifications of a particular social paradigm to both edify and entertain. Like magicians or con men—and the most convincing

performers are often both—the Rapture Right have also honed the art of misdirection. Their joke isn’t necessarily on the conventional God-fearing folk to whom the Rapture Right might represent some kind of dyed-black apotheosis. Rather, their targets are the comparatively silent voices in the religious debate—the agnostics and atheists—whose activism often begins and ends with a “CoExist� bumper-sticker on their car. In the past decade, there have been a few occasions in which secular interests mustered effective commentary in comedy, the most successful example being Bobby Henderson’s “Pastafarian� Flying Spaghetti Monster. Later, Bill Maher made waves with his pro-secular documentary Religulous (naturally, the Rapture Right boycotted it and were featured on the film’s website after Stewart phoned its distributor and claimed to be covering the boycott for a local daily metro). What distinguishes these Virgin Mary pranksters is the personal peril they risk while confronting secular humanists, a group with which they both identify philosophically. According to Stewart, real Christians tend to shy away from the Rapture Right. “They’re either afraid when they see it or they’re embarrassed when they see it, so they stay away altogether,� he says, adding that “90 percent of the people who email us are secular, yet they don’t get it, they didn’t see the satire and they’re just so mad. It’s nice to see that happen because it’s actually motivating them.� Hear more about the Rapture Right and other topics on the Bohemian’s newest effort, ‘Arts I.D.,’ an audio magazine debuting Wednesday, June 30, at 7pm on KRCB, 91.1-FM.

Gregory Unruh’s five biosphere rules for business By Juliane Poirier
Âş
4
co-efficiency,� writes Gregory Unruh with cool confidence, “is the equivalent of cutting back from two packs of cigarettes a day to one.� Rather, he says, we need “a more radical vision of eliminating waste.� So in his book, Earth, Inc.: Using Nature’s Rules to Build Sustainable Profits, Unruh outlines a radical, return-tonature vision that calls for replacing the standard “value chain� model with a “value cycle� model. If anyone missed that little gem, let me explain: Unruh just took a straight line and made a circle. Feel any paradigms shifting? Unruh, who directs the Lincoln Center for Ethics in Global Management and cofounded the Center for Eco-Intelligent Management, proposes that sustainability be embedded so deeply in the operational system of a business that we don’t need to talk about it anymore or hire another person to manage it as a sideline. “A snail,� Unruh writes, “doesn’t wake up and say, ‘How can I be sustainable today?’� In the natural world, sustainability is embedded in all functions. To a target audience of business leaders, many of whom are subscribers to the Harvard Business Review, Unruh lays out a profitsecuring strategy that follows principles “perfected three and a half billion years ago and encoded into every living thing on the planet long before humans existed.� Wow. I’m on the edge of my seat here. Unruh calls them the biosphere rules, and they number one through five: (1) materials parsimony; (2) power autonomy; (3) value cycles; (4) sustainable product platforms; (5) function over form. What do these rules mean, exactly? The first is about raw materials. To follow this rule is to reduce and simplify the number and types of materials used in products. (This is not to be confused with using less stuff, although that is good, too.) The idea is to keep materials simple, not only to plan for recycling and reuse purposes but also to avoid the disasters that have resulted in blithely using complex and unstudied materials. Unruh points to the big kerfuffle when the once-celebrated Nalgene plastic became
suspected of leaching toxins. All those water bottles were quickly pulled from the shelves, and people still argue over how much toxicity was released and under what circumstances. Better to keep it simple and avoid disasters— both to public health and to the public image of your business. The second rule asks to design energy use in the context of the products made and processes that make them. Planning for energy efficiency, use and generation is integrated with the design and is not an after-thought. Rule three demands that businesses “recover and reincarnate materials from end-of-use goods into new value-added products.� Reminding us that we are all stardust (which Joni Mitchell announced in the key of C at Woodstock), Unruh says it’s time to abandon the “sell it and forget it� approach that went along with the linear “value chain� model. Unruh’s “value cycle� model requires that before one reshapes stardust into a product for sale, one knows what that stardust will become at the end of its product life. Rule four advises businesses to “leverage . . . [the] value cycle as a product platform for scale, scope and knowledge economies,� and uses Clorox as an example. Clorox has kicked booty in developing and leveraging the platform for green product lines, even overturning long-established “green� product companies. The happy news for businesses, Unruh says, is that restrictions on materials and energy use are not blocks to “creating new products and attacking fresh markets.� The final rule asks that businesses “fulfill customers’ functional needs in ways that sustain the value cycle.� The idea of functional business models is not new, Unruh says. The polar opposite of the “sell it and forget it� model, the so-called servicization idea, moves toward long-term service relationships with customers. Instead of selling more quarts of oil, for example, Castrol decided to sell its knowledge of lubricant uses. The company developed a customer-service program that creates revenue by helping customers use less, not more, of its products. “Castrol’s services,� Unruh writes, “are aimed at mutual benefit, not just selling the customer more stuff.� Now there’s a business concept.
In the natural world, sustainability is embedded in all functions.

Cf^6dhbP]SCWTXa?XiiP Oenotri and the quest for authenticity By Juliane Poirier
?
lenty of guys in their 20s have a jones for pizza, but few are crazy enough to follow their pie passion to the extreme and open an Italian restaurant in Napa, the land of way too many Italian restaurants. But the wildly successful Oenotri, now in its third month, has taken foodies by surprise just as the proprietors, Curtis Di Fede and Tyler Rodde, have more or less jolted the culinary community here. For them, the quest for authenticity is, well, an extreme sport. My first time at Oenotri, I sat at the counter to watch the line cooks. Di Fede was grinning in front of his chest-high wood-fire oven like a man in love, making his signature pizzas—very thin dough, amorphous white cheese with mussels and a shining ring of olive oil brushed upon the exposed edges. As he slipped the creation into the oven, a customer asked idly, “How hot does it get in there?� Di Fede whipped out a gunlike gadget and pointed it at the fiery interior. “Eight hundred degrees,� he reported proudly, explaining that the beautiful clay oven came from Naples by boat. With installation, it cost over $20,000. I wondered at first whether this was taking the whole Italian thing to the extreme (don’t we make ovens in this country?) until I sat
down to interview the two pizza fanatics and fell entirely under the spell of their enthusiasm. “We’re obsessed about pizza,� Di Fede explains. “We love pizza.� But this almost sounds like a ruse when they’re doing so much more than that and working 90 hours and seven days a week to get it done. But neither chef looks tired as I stare across a restaurant table at them for a morning interview, noticing also why they’re often mistaken for brothers. Similar in build with matching brown hair, the men are equally humorous and uncannily compatible, even finishing each other’s sentences. Like twins, they exuded matching amounts of joie de vivre when talking about food. “We love to learn things and to dig down deep,� says Rodde. Di Fede adds, “We like to do things from the ground up.� This includes the flooring and kitchen design they did to get the place opened. I look down at the pigmented concrete and ask, “So, you know about floors?� They grin, and Rodde answers for both of them: “We do now.� Someone from the kitchen announces a delivery. A 220-pound pig has arrived and is ready for butchering. “We do all our own butchering, because you don’t know how the animal was treated unless you see the condition of the whole thing. Most restaurants order cuts of things, but we don’t. We get a whole pig every Wednesday,�
Di Fede explains. “We butcher it ourselves and use every part of it. We make salumi, pâtĂŠ and head cheese. The bones go to stock.â€? Rodde, a culinary school drop-out, and Di Fede, graduate of a nine-month cooking program in London, met four years ago as line cooks in Oakland’s Oliveto where they got their real education, learning about the labor-intensive southern Italian cooking methods practiced at that iconic East Bay restaurant. They knew there was nothing similar being done in the Napa Valley, where both men have family ties. Over a cup of coffee, the friends plotted their restaurant and then spent three years making it happen, hands on. “People didn’t think we were serious at first,â€? Di Fede says, adding, “because we like to have fun.â€? Fun appears to be the operative word here. And Di Fede and Rodde think it would be fun to earn the certificate of pizza-making authenticity backed by the Italian government, the Vera Pizza Napoletana. “You can only use four ingredients in the dough,â€? Di Fee says, his face alight with joy. Clearly their jones for authenticity is equal to their jones for making a good pizza. And while these two guys are having fun, Oenotri is getting excellent reviews. There hasn’t been a slow night yet. 1425 First St., Napa. Open nightly. 707.252.1022. www.oenotri.com

>;3F>A;3 F8=4AH urely the quirky name evokes a simpler time when grapes were trodden under bare feet, while the label’s vintage atbed truck backed by redwood trees suggests deep roots in the New World—west Sonoma County, speciďŹ cally. Old World Winery disappoints this mashup on neither account—and the wines are a nice surprise, too.
S
Growing up in the Martinelli family, Darek Trowbridge worked the vineyards from his late teens. He later earned a masters in winemaking, but like artists who delved into primitivism only after mastering modern perspective, he chose to make his own wine in what is called the natural way: with native yeasts, no enhancing additives, and minimal sulfur. Even heating and cooling are achieved via sun and shade. “Natural wineâ€? is thus far largely an urban-winebar phenomenon that relies on European imports. But Trowbridge is no ideologue and can explain in detail why his techniques create the kind of palate he is looking for. Another Old World aspect is that the proprietor lives onsite and is likely to be the host pouring. Fun fact for New World wine buffs: the humble winery shed was the original spot rented by Burt Williams and Ed Selyem, in which they made the Jackass Hill Zinfandel that put Martinelli vineyards on the radar. Who would guess that for such a quixotic project, the standout wines would be Chardonnay and Cab—for different reasons. The 2008 “Tweek Blockâ€? Chardonnay ($20) brings me back to the crush pad: wild aromas of grape skin and spice, owing to an unusual full-day’s soaking prior pressing, with cashew nut and (pleasant) volatile notes, prepare the palate not in the least for an explosion of bright green, Granny Smith apple avor. Hard to believe there’s 100 percent new oak on this, it’s so vibrant and atypical of the butter-on-ďŹ re set. The unique 2006 Sterling Family Vineyard Pinot Noir ($32) sports pine sap, rosemary aromas, with lean avors of pomegranate; licorice and chocolate liqueur on the 2005 Rockin’ R Ranch Syrah ($25). The juicy 2006 Two Vineyard Field Blend ($28) is made in the traditional all-grapes-in way, and is rich with hints of dried dates, plums and dark toast. But a Sonoma Coast appellated Cab? I was prepared for a curiosity indeed. Hailing from a hot spot up in the Cazadero’s “banana belt,â€? the 2004 Bei du Rochi Cabernet Sauvignon ($28) offers up the purest blackcurrant Cab aromas, with dark berry liqueur, chocolate and spice, while lithe acidity wraps the avors with soft tannin tightly to the ďŹ nish. It’s reminiscent of some of the better product off the western slope of the Mayacamas and might stand its own against a good many twice, thrice the price. In any case, pretty darn classy for a wine trod underneath a bunch of bare feet. Old World Winery, 850 River Road, Fulton. By appointment only. No fee. 707.578.3148 or info@ oldworldwinery.com.

Napa Day Tripping Excursions can be Very Cool and Refreshing in the Summer! Be sure to let your hosts know that you are a "local" for special packages or tasting discounts. Start early and zip to Artesa Vineyards and Winery to enjoy the cascading waterfalls and their tasting room with a view of San Francisco in the horizon. Experience Meritage Resort & Spa with a spa treatment (the Dulce is delish!), and plan to stay a while longer in their steam room, jacuzzi or the pool at the caves. Mosey over to Darioush Winery, with its modern yet authentic Persian-style architecture for a superb tasting room. Their dazzling fountain visually cools you off, and they now offer local artisan cheese and wine pairings. Don’t forget to stop by and enjoy the renovated Napa Riverfront District to shop and dine or stroll. Bask "under the Tuscan Sun" at the Villagio Resort & Spa's glorious pool, which offers local spa specials on Tuesdays. Then, relax some more at the Domaine Chandon Winery with its award-winning bubbly, great art and their pond surrounded by beautiful nature and a whimsical mushroom grove! Stop by chef-owner Cindy Pawlcyn’s Go Fish for a culinary taste of the sea. Set your artistic and tasting sights on Clos Pegase Winery's fountains and sculptures. Soak up Calistoga's natural springs and mineral pools, mud baths and grapeseed treatments. If you are in search of the “mother pool� and a luxurious bed to sink into, Indian Springs is a must. You can rent cottages or a room at the lodge for access to the pool and steam room. If you’re into volcanic ash, try their mud baths and then mosey to the Buddha Pond. Gather by the river at the Calistoga Inn Restaurant and Brewery and play bocce. Then, head for the Old Faithful Geyser and get dusted by some of the earth's own droplets. Sip some Calistoga Mineral Water on your drive home while relishing the tantalizing experiences that beckon you back for more! —Resident Tourist At Large

CW^dVWc?a^RTbbTb Permaculture is as much a life philosophy as a gardening style By Joy Lanzendorfer

bout 10 years ago, Penny LivingstoneStark and her husband started building a permaculture garden on their small property near Point Reyes. Permaculture, a play on the words “permanent agriculture� and “permanent culture,� uses a set of principles to create sustainable systems that imitate patterns found in nature. First, the Starks put in a food forest—a garden that imitates the forest ecosystem—full of fruit trees, nuts, herbs, berries, vegetables and flowers, as well as some plants for making furniture and baskets. Next, they made a pond using gray water from their laundry and bath, and filled it with ducks and koi. After that, they took the earth they had dug out of the pond and made a small cob building which acts as a library. They have chickens for eggs, solar power for electricity and a water tank holding 2,800 gallons of rainwater. On top of all that, the Starks don’t have to fertilize because the soil has been built up. They don’t have to water the plants, except

the raspberries, because roots are now deeply established, and because they have used watersaving techniques in the soil. In fact, the garden produces so much food that they have enlisted the local wildlife to help use it all up. “Sometimes we let the deer come in during the fall because we have so much food, we can’t give it all away,� says Penny. “So they help us clean the garden. I don’t know how many gardeners actually encourage the deer to come in.� While the garden started out as the Starks private experiment, it quickly attracted attention. When guests stayed at the couple’s now-defunct bed and breakfast, they were amazed by what they saw. Word spread, and soon people were asking to write about the garden in books. They were invited all over the world to teach about permaculture. Soon after, they founded the Regenerative Design Institute (RDI) in Bolinas, where, among other things, people can take courses in permaculture design. In 2003, they began working on the Commonweal Garden, a 17-acre Bolinas farm that is being “transformed into a permaculture model of human beings living in harmony with the earth,� according to the RDI website.
Like her garden, Penny’s career is blooming. “I had never written anything before this,� she says. “I had never spoken or done anything like that. We were just doing this garden, and it brought the world to us that way.� Permaculture is a design science that centers around three core values: caring for the earth, caring for people and reinvesting surplus back into the system. While permaculture principles can be applied to any human system, for the most part, it starts with a garden. Instead of a grid of vegetables or a bank of flowers, the permaculture approach is to layer different plants—from fruit trees to vines to herbs—while putting an emphasis on planting perennials, building soil, retaining water and using resources at hand. Everything has more than one purpose, and everything works together. “It’s looking at the intelligence of nature and applying nature’s principles to human design,� Penny says. “It’s about how to address our needs in a way that does not destroy everything and in a way that regenerates the earth rather than depleting it on a large scale.�
Food Forests & More Permaculture has been around since 1978, when two Australians, Bill Mollison and David Holmgren, published a book called Permaculture One. But lately, permaculture has been gaining in popularity all over the world, and the North Bay is no exception. Courses at RDI and the Occidental Arts and Ecology Center (OAEC) fill up fast as people seek to earn a certificate in permaculture design. Food forests are popping up in community centers and grammar schools all over the place. There are permaculture landscape designers, permaculture workshops and even a blog on the subject called Permie.net. In Marin County, there’s Permaculture Marin, a volunteer organization that meets once a month. The group was founded three years ago by 10 like-minded people and now has some 60 members. In addition to regular workshops, the members work on projects at each other’s houses and in the community. Permaculture Marin recently built a food forest in front of Hall Middle School in Larkspur, a project that involved the students as well as the teachers. “And the beautiful thing about it is that the public can enjoy the food forest as well,” says Kathleen Lanphier, one of Permaculture Marin’s co-founders. “As it grows into a more mature garden, the fruit and berries will be accessible. It’s a wonderful thing.” On the surface, permaculture seems to encompass other environmental trends, like biomimcry or urban homesteading or native gardening. But permaculture is more than all these parts because it also addresses the big ecological picture. It is about designing an overall system that people can build step by step, emphasizing the practical while keeping an eye on the big picture. “It’s very hopeful,” Lanphier says. “And it has a creative way of looking at the world that I love. This is a time of real despair in so many ways. Every day, the news is so bleak. Permaculture offers a lot of timetested solutions to some of these problems. That’s comforting.”
Healing the Land Imagine a world where neighbors take down their fences and fill their backyards with an elaborate self-sustaining garden. Instead of a lawn, their yard is a combination of fruit and nut trees, greens, herbs, chickens and vegetables. Instead of paying for city water, they have retained enough rainwater in the soil that the garden waters itself. Instead of lugging in compost, they have built up the soil enough that the garden selffertilizes. There is so much spare food that neighbors get the surplus. Actually, this is a description of Erik Ohlsen’s house. Ohlsen, a permaculture designer and teacher, owns one-third of an acre in Sebastopol. He and his two neighbors took down their fences and built a food forest that serves as a permaculture model for his neighborhood. It has 82 fruit trees, eight chickens, two habitat ponds, and has harvested a stunning 200,000 gallons of rainwater. The garden benefits the whole
neighborhood. The neighbors give Ohlsen their kitchen scraps for the chickens and often receive surplus food in exchange. And anyone who is interested can learn from the garden. “One-third of an acre makes so much food,” Ohlsen says. “You can support two or three families on just one-third of an acre, so we share the abundance with the community.” Ohlsen runs Permaculture Artisans, a permaculture landscaping business. In addition to designing systems for his clients, he also partners with Petaluma’s Daily Acts to create designs for local municipalities. In one case, he turned the front lawn of Sebastopol’s Cavanaugh Center into a food forest, complete with storm-water harvesting, edible fruits and berries and medicinal plants. Many of Ohlsen’s clients come to him because they want to reduce their carbon footprint or have a more sustainable backyard. But recently, he has seen a new trend: they want to heal their land. “I have people asking, ‘How do I take care of a forest that has been neglected for two decades?’” he says. “Or, ‘How do I care for these grasslands that were overgrazed and have been neglected for 50 years?’ So it’s a trend toward larger scale ecological care.” Because of permaculture’s focus on building soil, planting beneficial plants, harvesting water and attracting wildlife, it has more than enough potential to improve the ecology of a landscape. Using its principles, people can actually do more good for the land than if they left it to fend for itself. When RDI started the Commonweal Garden six years ago, the land was closed in with hemlock and wild radish. Now, after seven years of human intervention, there is a dramatic difference in how well the land looks and works. “I would love to see a comparative study on the number of birds and insects on the farm compared to the coastal chaparral that is next to us,” Penny Livingstone-Stark says. “We’ve opened the land up and it has had a positive effect on the wildlife. There is more structural diversity with meadows and trees and different canopies, and there is more water on the land and more soil.”

Garden Smarter Over time, permaculture gardeners have less work to do. As the landscape matures, the plants work together and require less human intervention. A typical vegetable garden is an immature ecosystem with young plants, bare ground and wasted space taken up by paths. So nature, which hates bare ground and wasted space, steps in and tries to fill the gaps with weeds and pests. The gardener then has to mulch and till and weed to keep the garden under control. A food forest, on the other hand, mimics the mature ecosystem of a forest. Differentsized plants are put in so that the garden has different levels and canopies. As much as possible, perennials are planted that will mature with time. The ground is filled with plants, so there isn’t as much room for weeds. Everything has been chosen because it serves multiple functions, just like in the ')

forest. A plant like bee balm, for example, might be put in because it brings bees into the garden, is pretty to look at, smells good and can be used as an herb. One plant works four ways. If every element does this, the garden begins to work together and to become self-sustaining and efficient. Permaculture can lead to creative solutions. When snails were wrecking havoc in Penny’s garden, she decided that she didn’t have a snail problem, she had a duck shortage. So she got some ducks and let them wander around the garden. Soon, they ate up all the snails and turned them into fertilizer. With one change, she had taken a problem and made it a benefit for her garden. Then, when she got tired of changing the ducks’ water, she decided to build a pond for them to swim in. Instead of filling the pond with city water, she employed another principle of permaculture—using the resources at hand—and filled it with a combination of roof water and gray water. Today, the pond thrives with koi, ducks, frogs and other wildlife. “And in almost 10 years, I have never seen a fish belly floating upside down in that pond,� Penny says. Water is important. Large gardens are notoriously expensive to irrigate, and California is notoriously mired in water issues. But with permaculture, something like storm-water runoff becomes a boon for the garden. Instead of draining water away from the house, which can dehydrate the soil and cause erosion, permaculture contours the land with shallow ditches called swales and small hills called berms, which catch rainwater and allow it to slowly sink into the ground. Over time, this method can build an underground water table. “This way of conserving water is applicable to every single property in Sonoma County,� Ohlsen says. “It is applicable to every property in the world.� But this is just one way to make the most out of water on your land. Taken together with other techniques—cisterns, roof-water catchment, gray-water purification and so on—it’s possible to get something like the 200,000 gallons of water that Ohlsen has reaped from his one-third acre.
Sharing Abundance For some, permaculture is a way to take day-by-day actions beyond bringing a reusable bag to the grocery store. It is about seeing the whole ecological picture and applying principles in a practical way to live intentionally on the planet. “Permaculture is a way of looking at how I live, with complete honesty about my lifestyle,� says Terrie Schweitzer, who runs the blog Permie.net. “It’s a way to really consider the things in my life, where they come from, how they’re made and whether or not something is made ethically. It’s about looking deeply at the truth behind your life.� Schweitzer became interested in permaculture about three years ago and was
hooked. A former employee at tech-book publishers O’Reilly Media in Sebastopol, she started Permie.net in January 2009. While she practices permaculture through gardening, composting and collecting water, her blog also contributes to the online permaculture community. The word “community� is important here. Much of this is practical—one must do something with all that surplus food, after all. But community is also important as part of the overall philosophy. “Permaculture is not a back-to-the-land movement or a self-sufficiency movement,� says Brock Dolman, permaculture program director at OAEC. “It’s permanent culture, which means creating community sufficiency and resiliency through collaboration. If it’s just applying these techniques to an individual homestead, that person or family could live a nice life for themselves, and it’s all very quaint, but I don’t think it gets at the aspirations of intergenerational continuity.� People like Dolman believe permaculture principles can be applied to everything from logging to the government to finance. In fact, there’s even a permaculture credit union in Arizona. He says the principles here can apply to any system or landscape, which includes those in the hearts of cities. Case in point, OAEC is partnering with Movement Generation in Oakland, an ecological-justice organization for urban communities. Together, they are offering a permaculture design course for leaders of other urban social-justice organizations. The leaders will then go back to their communities around the Bay Area and teach permaculture principles to their communities. “By cultivating those skills, we are preparing communities for the inevitable harsher impacts of ecological damage,� says Carla Perez, programs coordinator for Movement Generation. “In five or 10 years, they are going to be dealing with ecological issues like food scarcity, water scarcity, cuts in basic services and cuts in city-led services. Permaculture, for us, is teaching people to harvest rainwater, grow food, to do things in a way that doesn’t require being plugged into the grid.� The idea that permaculture could heal a damaged, poverty-stricken section of a city as well as it could heal overgrazed ranch land is certainly intriguing. And perhaps that, more than anything, is what makes permaculture stand out from a lot of other environmental thinking: it factors people back into the deal. It allows them to take small actions to work toward bigger solutions, and it allows them to start in their own backyards. In the end, it’s this optimistic, pragmatic approach that makes permaculture so hopeful. “My general approach is to trust in the natural system,� Penny says. “The sooner we get that, the sooner the human species will be entering back into the garden, which we have been banished from by our own design.�

9^XTSTEXeaT New de Young exhibit backgrounds impressionism By Richard von Busack

t the press preview, San Francisco mayor Gavin Newsom gave the best justification for the first of two shows at the de Young Museum, “The Birth of Impressionism: Masterpieces of the MusĂŠe d’Orsayâ€?: “It’s better than storing them in a basement gathering dust.â€? Good ol’ Gavin. This expensive ($20–$25) show is the first of two helpings from the Orsay. The Paris museum is temporarily closed for refurbishing for its 25th anniversary. Those expecting sailboats and f lowers will be in for a surprise. Like two cinematic blockbusters this year, Robin Hood and Alice in Wonderland, this show turns out to be a prequel. It’s a primer for how the revolution in painting (and seeing) took place. I suppose the show argues that if there is such a thing as post-impressionism, there should be such a thing as pre-impressionism. But those looking for a clear narrative pathway to the future are sure to be confused. Everything outside official salon painting was a big everything, a group of artists in common cause, from the roots of ashcan (in Falguière’s 1875 The Wrestlers) to social realism
( Jules Breton’s 1877 The Harvester, a portrait of a colossal peasant brandishing a sheaf of wheat big enough to knock down a horse). It’s a group of winding roads we have, leading to the lonely, stony hills of CĂŠzanne and the moody pastures of Pissarro. And what’s Whistler’s Mother doing here? (Three people I met asked that question.) Arrangement in Gray and Black, No. 1: Portrait of the Artist’s Mother (1871) is misunderstood as a lampoon of the subject. Seen in f lank view, she’s a very old woman, the epitome of lace-capped homeliness. It’s a much larger painting than you’d expect, and its size emphasizes the radical approach: a f latness assumed from Japanese art, with planes of color stark to the point of monochromatic. It was a drastic, divisive painting, exposed to mockery in its day. “Poor lady, posed like a sack of coal,â€? sighed one cartoonist. In fact, the Whistler painting is a breakthrough, an icon-blaster in a time favoring allegories and classical subjects. I liked—maybe better than anything in the show—another essentially non-impressionist, Gustave Moreau’s 1865 rejoinder to standard classicism, Jason et MĂŠdĂŠe. It’s a troubling painting of the pair entwined like Chagal lovers: the murderous wife Medea swoons at the teenage warrior who is as golden as the fleece he stole. The effect of railroad travel on art is a
subtext of this show. Just as we started to get more abstract paintings of f lat fields and geographical shapes after air travel became deregulated and cheap, the rise of French rail prepared viewers for the shimmer of light: paintings as if seen through a window, traveling fast. Monet’s 1877 picture here of the Gare Saint-Lazare crowned in steam suggests this love of rail. Vacationers now had cheap access to the cloudy French beaches to become bathers and, of course, sailors, as we were to see in painting after painting. The popularity of photography caused a rise in the informal image: Frederic Bazille’s 1867 portrait of Renoir crouched with his heels on a chair; Degas’ study of a lady getting a pedicure; Gustave Caillebotte’s somber 1876 image of workers scraping a f loor. Impressionism exalted the informal, the earthy. Monet’s delightful 1876 painting of a crowd of sophisticated looking white turkeys, glowing like angels as they strut up a hill, leaves us firmly in the hands of the movement to be—and ready for September’s follow-up. ‘The Birth of Impressionism’ runs at the de Young through Sept. 6. Also, ‘I Keep Fooling Around,’ prints by Marin master William T. Wiley, shows in the main museum through July 4. $11. 50 Hagiwara Tea Garden Drive, San Francisco. 415.750.3600.

ith three-fifths of the current Summer Repertory Theatre season at the SRJC now officially unveiled and onstage (two more shows open next week), it’s looking like the big hit is The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee. With a hilarious script and Ăźber-clever songs by William Finn, this Tony award–winning delight is the perfect show for a training program such as SRT. Directed and choreographed by Johanna Pinzler, the exuberant cast have plenty to sink their theatrical teeth into in this wildly inventive show about . . . yep, a spelling bee. The rousing opening number introduces a wacky gang of elementary-school oddballs, and throughout the show, each has a moment in the spotlight. In the song “Woe Is Me,â€? pint-sized Logainne Schwartzengrubenierre (Sarah Smithton) describes her two dads, her strong sense of ethics and her crippling fear of becoming a loser. Chip Tolentino (Jason Moody), last year’s bee winner, suffers this year due to the recent onset of puberty (“My Unfortunate Erectionâ€?). The sweet but bizarre Leaf Coneybear (Drew Mason) wears a cape made of a baby blanket, frequently talks to his finger and, though terrified, is thrilled to have ended up in the bee (“I’m Not That Smartâ€?). Marcy Park (Megan Dorn-Wallenstein) is a type-A overachiever (“I Speak Six Languagesâ€?), and William Barfee (John Krause) is desperately peculiar and uptight, with a knack for spelling words by tracing them on the floor with the tips of his toes (“Magic Footâ€?). Initially hostile to the other contestants, his unexpected bond with introverted newcomer Olive Ostrovsky (Richelle Blauvelt, introduced with the lovely “My Friend, the Dictionaryâ€?) threatens to scuttle his shot at first place.
At times hysterically off-color and daring— and backed by a tight orchestra led by Alex Wise—Spelling Bee, like the lovable weirdoes it celebrates, is easily the most entertaining and endearing show of SRT’s current season.
C
here are few things lovelier or more heart-warming than an evening of spirited community theater actually attended by the community. That the Raven Players’ ambitious production of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s Cats seems at times like a small-town talent show—in which the participants happen to be dressed like felines—only adds to the charm. Directed with an eye for striking visuals by John DeGaetano and with smart musical direction by Les Pfutzenreuter, Cats turns out to be the perfect community theater show. Designed as a series of single-song “auditions,� as various cats compete for the honor of being reincarnated, Webber’s smash hit really does resemble a talent show—a showcase for an array of singers and dancers (there are nearly 30 cats in this Cats) all shaking their tails for a packed house of appreciative friends and neighbors. Several of the singing voices are quite excellent, and though the overall production is understandably uneven, DeGaetano and his Cats cast have imbued the show with plenty of truly affecting moments. Applause must also go to the audience, which on the second night nearly filled the Raven’s large theater. That’s the way to support your local theater company! ‘The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee’ runs through Aug. 3 (Burbank Auditorium, 1501 Mendocino Ave., Santa Rosa; times vary; $10–$25; 707.527.4343). ‘Cats’ runs through July 25 (Raven Theater, 115 North St., Healdsburg; times vary; $20–$26; 707.433.6335).

Coco, Igor and the Lost Generation By Richard von Busack
H
ou might suspect a sequel from the title, but it’s just coincidence. Coco Chanel & Igor Stravinsky fits snugly into last year’s unrelated Coco Before Chanel by Anne Fontaine. This slightly fictionalized account of the torrid affair between the great maker of racket and the great fabricator of odors even repeats a shot from the Fontaine biopic, one of the best shots, in which the designer glides down a staircase past a multiply mirrored wall. The difference between the films is obvious. Chanel here is Anna Mouglalis, a knifelike, severe creature with one of those mouths that three-named novelists used to describe as looking like a scarlet wound. The Chanel-Stravinsky love affair begins in Paris before World War I. Chanel’s lover, Boy, has gone elsewhere (his eventual fate is signaled by the harsh rattle of his car engine as he drives away). Alone, Chanel goes to the ballet, where she’s in attendance at a turning point for modernism, the debut of the Ballet Russes’ Rites of Spring. It’s nice to know that something considered avant-garde in 1913 still looks way avant-garde nearly a century later. The dancers, clad in Greco-Assyrian outfits with crossed garters and tarboushes, do a variation on a Plains Indian war dance in front of a dazed audience of Parisians asking themselves, “Which one is Nijinsky?� Then the rioting starts. We see the composer Stravinsky (Mads Mikkelsen) blaming the dancers for not being able to dance to the music—or at least not being able to function with choreographed directions like “Tremble! Tremble!� Sympathizing with the fiasco, Chanel invites Stravinsky and his equally poor
family—a quartet of kids, as well as the ailing Madame S.—into her silk-lined chateau. Director Kounen waltzes the camera around the plush house as Stravinsky pounds the keyboard and Chanel draws the composer closer to her. But love isn’t her sole occupation; she’s also supervising the creation of her namesake perfume. This olfactory task is hampered by the smell of burning emanating from Stravinsky’s wife (Yelena Morozova). The unwell woman has an unfortunate resemblance to the aging Queen Elizabeth I; she’s redheaded, with a protuberant forehead. The trance-inducing curlicues of the tracking camera hide the ultimate lack of pull—for a while. Ultimately, it’s the casting that sinks the film. Mikkelsen is a startlinglooking man, and he resembles the master composer. But perhaps he plays it a little too correctly. His Stravinsky goes from bespectacled Dracula to—in the scenes of pouting with frustrated desire—a depressed duck. The dialogue is cut to a minimum compared to the heavy languor of the lovers. And maybe Coco Chanel and Igor Stravinsky deserves points for not being a Ken Russell– style farrago: the director has respect for its subjects, even if they are behaving badly. From the art nouveau kaleidoscope titles to the ultimate nostril-flaring finish, Kounen presents a standard love triangle, rich-looking, spotless. Mikkelsen’s composer succumbs to the monochromatic allure of Chanel, as his wife patiently suffers. It’s all engrossing until it suddenly isn’t. ‘Coco Chanel & Igor Stravinsky’ opens on Friday, July 2, at the Rialto Cinemas Lakeside, 551 Summerfield Road, Santa Rosa. 707.525.4840.

Holloy Holloy Ignore their fabricated story about being from a parallel dimension called Lake Land. The Holloys, from Los Angeles, sound like they’re everywhere at once, combining sounds of German prog-rock, Nigerian Afrobeat, London trance and Detroit soul. Loosely affiliated with the noise scene surrounding the downtown L.A. venue the Smell, the Holloys experiment with drones and textures while reaching their dual drum sets ever further toward the brass ring of pop structure on their latest album, No Where Now Here. It’s a peyote-driven sound that’s brought them to play the All Tomorrow’s Parties festival in Britain and to record a split 7-inch with Cambodian pop machine Dengue Fever. They hit Sonoma County with four shows this weekend, at the Black Cat in Penngrove ( July 1), Hopmonk Tavern in Sebastopol ( July 2), Ravenous in Healdsburg (July 3) and Street Scene in Healdsburg (July 4). www.holloys.com.

Shelbyville What’s a not-yet-out-of-the-closet Grammywinning singer who still rolls joints on her LPs and records acclaimed albums full of Dusty Springfield songs doing playing a free show on a man-made lake next to a pizza place in Rohnert Park? Like the incessant questions about her relationship to Gayle King–esque manager Betty Jordan, don’t ask. Shelby Lynne usually plays to packed theaters, still riding the wave of her excellent country-soul debut I Am Shelby Lynne, so witnessing her gut-busting voice in the confines of a small restaurant patio is a rare opportunity. The show is free, courtesy of the KRSH 95.9-FM, Lynne’s new album, Tears, Lies and Alibis, is great, and with any luck she’ll sing her a cappella rendition of “A Song for You� while the ducks quack along. Be there on Saturday, July 3, at Latitude Island Grill, 5000 Roberts Lake Drive, Rohnert Park. 6pm. Free. 707.588.0707.

Not That Durst When we see that some guy named Durst is playing town, we always have that same kneejerk: Fred Durst?! Nooooo!!!! What sublime relief we find in discovering that’s it’s almost always comedian Will Durst. Being mistaken for the goateed bro from the constipated gurglings of rap-metal losers Limp Bizkit isn’t a compliment—although Durst, as usual, would surely mine the situation for comedic gold. The satirist’s main quarry is politics, and what with teabaggers complaining about BP’s $20 billion
escrow fund to clean up the oil spill, Carly Fiorina’s anti-abortion stance touted as “new feminism� and a popular Facebook group to nominate Werner Herzog governor of California (why the hell not?), Durst will be on fire when celebrating our nation’s independence with blues band Top of the Top on Sunday, July 4, at Silo’s Jazz Club. 530 Main St., Napa. 6pm. $50. 707.251.5833.

Fairly Good Four all the times you’ve been tempted (puns intended!) to spend $50 to see the Four Tops and the Temptations, or surviving members thereof, count yourself lucky to have resisted. The Marin County Fair once again comes through with free concerts on the lagoon, featuring the two Motown legends, who almost always tour together. The Four Tops and the Temptations play on Monday, July 5, while other headline entertainment includes “Hold On� hit makers Wilson Phillips ( July 1) and Ramblin’ Jack Elliott and the Wailers ( July 2). The hotdoggiest lineup, however, is the Del McCoury Band and the Preservation Hall Jazz Band, masters of two distinctly American music forms—bluegrass and Dixieland—on the Fourth of July. A giant, lengthy fireworks display caps each night of the fair because, by golly, Marin can afford it! Marin County Fairgrounds, Avenue of the Flags, San Rafael.

Ob-La-Di What happens when the lyrics of the Grateful Dead and the Beatles are adapted for the dramatic stage? Find out when over two nights, Eric Burke, Allison Marcom, Keith Baker, Tim Kniffin and others act out classic songs from the Grateful Dead and the Beatles. Friday’s performance follows a blind train passenger pulling out of Terrapin Station who comes across Uncle John’s Band and meets a friend of the Devil, with all the Dead hits reinterpreted as script. On Saturday, it’s the entire White Album, beginning to end, with “Glass Onion� told from the perspective of a secret agent (“Here’s another clue for you all / The walrus was Paul�) and “Why Don’t We Do It in the Road� from a nervous suitor practicing his come-on lines in the mirror before a date. Someone even says “Number nine� over and over and over! The Dead show is Friday, July 2; the Beatles, Saturday, July 3. All of it at the Glaser Center, 547 Mendocino Ave., Santa Rosa. 7:30pm. $12–$18. 707.568.5381.

Russian River Chamber Music faces hard times rom the Bad Economy Files: Russian River Chamber Music, which for 18 years has done an excellent job of presenting mostly free classical music concerts, is being forced to consider either canceling its upcoming 2010– 2011 season or “significantly curtailingâ€? its activities. “I’ve got these artist contracts on my desk right now,â€? RRCM artistic director Gary McLaughlin says, “but I’m unsure if I can sign them.â€? Surely, every classical-music organization knows what McLaughlin is talking about. And yet Russian River Chamber Music is a special case—almost all its concerts have been absolutely free to the public. Last year, the group experimented with charging admission, but found that ticket sales were “deďŹ nitely in the ballparkâ€? of the previous season’s donations. That’s a good sign there’s plenty of voluntary support in Sonoma County, and in fact, McLaughlin says the ďŹ ve-member board would love to make concerts free again. But some key backers have curtailed their ďŹ nancial support, and the future is uncertain. “Everyone’s making very painful cuts, and for the next year or two, I don’t think things are going to change a lot,â€? McLaughlin says. “How do you weather this and stay in the game? Or do you just close your doors and call it quits? I’m not ready to do that. I didn’t put 18 years of my life into it just to see it do that.â€? Scheduled programs for the upcoming RRCM season include a song cycle by three Bay Area composers based on the poetry of Gary Snyder and the Cypress String Quartet’s performance of an author-approved composition based on Anne Patchett’s bestseller Bel Canto. As ever, string quartets would visit area schools for free educational programs for kids—last year, the visiting groups from Shanghai, Paris and Tel Aviv all played to packed schoolrooms. How can you help make it work? Right now, Russian River Chamber Music could use any support, be it ďŹ nancial assistance or in the form of energetic souls who can offer fresh ideas and help “save the ship,â€? as McLaughlin says. You can email him at rivermusic@comcast.net or call 707.524.8700. Believe me, it’s a ship worth saving.

ountless suburban kids, this writer included, learned about social injustice from Public Enemy. Leader Chuck D famously proclaimed rap “the black CNN,� and the Long Island group were its anchormen, galvanizing hip-hop’s golden age with a progressive blend of militant imagery, urban decay, Afro-centric empowerment and comic relief courtesy of clownish hype man Flavor Flav. Turning 20 this year is their magnum opus, Fear of a Black Planet, a stunning song cycle serving as an activist’s guide to the America of 1990. “We grew up in that period, being inspired by What’s Going On and the great Beatles albums,� says Chuck on the phone from Long Island. “It started out in the rock world, then the soul world had great albums. Stevie Wonder, Isaac Hayes—people would put their whole lives into the themes of those albums.� Like its predecessor, It Takes a Nation of Millions to Hold Us Back, Fear is one of the few hip-hop albums to enter the esteemed “classic album� canon. Nation’s themes of media misrepresentation and cultural strife had come true by 1990, and the group didn’t squander the spotlight on Fear, whose subject matter was more complex than ever. It presented portraits of social racism (the title track and “Pollywanacraka�), damaging paradigms (“Burn Hollywood Burn,� which featured future Hollywood powerhouse Ice Cube), and societal disavowal of the inner city (“911 Is a Joke�), all created with a finer brush than the straightforward, anthem-heavy Nation. “The album was a statement, because it actually took a college professor’s theory and turned it into a rap record, which was kind of over-the-top but reflected where we were at that time,� Chuck says. “I was a postgraduate

college student—it wasn’t like I was 22 or 21. I was 30 years old.� Chuck recalls that the group set out to make an album that would “stand the test of time by being diverse with sounds and textures,� and they certainly succeeded in that goal. “Brothers Gonna Work It Out� blends elements of well-known Prince, P-Funk and Sly Stone songs rendered unrecognizable in an unsettling yet compelling cacophony. In the kaleidoscopic “Welcome to the Terrordome,� Chuck D touches on everything from the mob murders of black youth and police brutality to his frustration with black-on-black crime and his own detractors. But it’s the noisy, simmering swirl of guitar and chaotic vocal samples that make the track a potent promise of impending confrontation. These soundscapes uncannily reflect the confusion and tension of the pre–Rodney King era. This year’s Rock the Bells Festival boasts a slew of albums-in-their-entirety performances from old-school icons like Slick Rick and Rakim, but the genre’s most deserving album won’t get the same treatment on PE’s upcoming shows. “Nation is an up-tempo record, so it works from beginning to end,� Chuck says. “Fear has peaks and valleys, for a great album’s listening sake, but live, you have to position it or act really well within it.� Either way, the album’s title is as relevant as ever, considering the baseless attacks of the “birthers,� the Tea Party movement and President Obama’s countless other detractors. “All you have to do is take the e-t off it, because E.T. was the extraterrestrial,� Chuck says, laughing. “You take off the e-t, and you have ‘Fear of a Black Plan.’� Read the complete interview with Chuck D at www.bohemian.com/bohoblog.

Kevin Starr’s new book tells the story of the Golden Gate Bridge or most residents of the North Bay, the first sight of the Golden Gate Bridge’s foggy arches means nearness to a weekend destination. But beneath the Bridge’s striking grandeur lies a saga of struggle. In his new book, Golden Gate: The Life and Times of America’s Greatest Bridge (Bloomsbury Press; $23), historian Kevin Starr narrates the Bridge’s storied past, from the Spanish explorers’ “discoveryâ€? of the San Francisco Bay, modern artists’ interpretations of the bridge, the political, financial and design process to the 1,300 people and counting who have used this feat of creativity to destroy their own lives. Full of historical narrative and trivia, Starr writes that John Charles FrĂŠmont, explorer and leader of the Bear Flag Revolt, was the first to call the bay “golden.â€? FrĂŠmont named the channel entrance Chrysopylae, or Golden Horn, after a channel of the same name that protected Constantinople. (FrĂŠmont’s choice seems eerily sibylline now, as San Francisco did indeed evolve from a small shipping village to a metropolitan hub.) Bridge development required backing from the entire Bay Area community, including Santa Rosa’s Frank Doyle. Starr discusses the Exchange Bank founder’s prominent role in pushing pro-bridge legislation and financial support. Doyle envisioned the proposed bridge transforming his agricultural hometown into something more like a city. Deftly alternating between historical exposition, evocative description and intellectual musings on Pythagoras or Eastern Orthodox Christianity’s definition of an icon, Starr tells the complex history of California’s most famous landmark. Kevin Starr reads and discusses on Wednesday, July 7 at Book Passage. 7pm. 51 Tamal Vista Blvd., Corte Madera. Free. 415.927.0960. Caroline Osborn
