?TPRTX]cWTEP[[Th
African-American community comes together for new pastor
By Lenita Marie Johnson
C
he votes have been tallied, the results are in and the Rev. Lee Turner, beloved nephew of longtime pastor James E. Coffee, is the newly elected senior pastor of the Santa Rosa congregation of Community Baptist Church. A kaleidoscope of the community, Community Baptist houses the largest multicultural congregation north of the Golden Gate Bridge. Its pastor, the Rev. James Coffee, was a gigantic presence in the community. In spite of the ongoing grieving process for the reverend, who passed away this past April, folks in the community are breathing a deep sigh of relief at the news of an elected successor. Says trustee Sarah Lawrence, “We’re going to hold hands, stick together and continue to move through this.� While the Sunday service has been uplifting, it’s clear the church has still been in mourning. The sign out front still bears Coffee’s name; his wife of 56 years, Vivian, is often seated alone just a few rows from the pulpit; and the answering machine still bears her warm greeting. “You have reached the Community Baptist Church,� it says. “Rev. James E. Coffee is the pastor.� Even while it was no secret that his health seemed to be in rapid decline, Coffee’s robust spirit and cheerful demeanor never waned. The election of his replacement was observed by some to be progressing at a snail’s pace—that is, once it finally got underway. Yet throughout the process, there was a respect for the collective grief members, the Coffee family and the community have been undergoing, myself included. Losing a parent is never easy. My mom and dad passed somewhat unexpectedly. Not a day goes by when I don’t think of one or both. The Rev. Coffee and Ms. Vivian became my surrogate parents when I came to Santa Rosa. As leader of the f lock on Sonoma Avenue, Coffee developed wings large enough for anyone who needed love and support. As an East Coast city girl from
a large family, it didn’t take long for me to fit right in at CBC. Then and now, it feels like home, and I, too, am glad the election is over. Being “groomedâ€? for 15 years, the Rev. Turner says the process has “taught me to continue to practice patience,â€? adding that “it’s extremely humbling that so many would place their trust in you as the leader of this institution. I want to do the best job that I can. “It’s a very delicate process,â€? he continues. “We’ve got to continue moving ahead with the powerful foundation created in the church by pastor and Mrs. Coffee. Because of his toiling in the fields, we are strong. People don’t generally like change, but it’s part of the human condition. As I watched him over the years, I know the congregation was also watching me. My goal was to support the work of Pastor Coffee. He was training me to lead one day, somewhere.â€? After the vote, new first lady Tracy Turner was all smiles as she was enveloped by the congregation with hugs, kisses and congratulatory well wishes. At the same time, she kept a watchful on their sons, both traveling through the hall in their wheelchairs. (Unlike Mrs. Coffee, also at church Sunday, Mrs. Turner didn’t don a hat, which traditionally women wear on Sunday at predominantly black churches). Importantly, pastor-elect Turner has the same open-door policy as Pastor Coffee. Over the past months, the cluttered office still looks the same as when Coffee presided, yet that will no doubt change, too. “One of the things I love is I don’t have to be apart from the people,â€? says Turner. “It’s not about me, Lee Turner, and it’s not just me. We’ve got a great body in this congregation.â€? As for the cluttered church office dĂŠcor? “Stay posted,â€? says Turner. That’s called the future. I’m happy the office door is still open.
We’re going to hold hands, stick together and continue to move through this.

We cannot seriously address the budget deficit without cutting the military budget, which takes up 59 percent of the discretionary budget. That doesn’t even account for overruns, including $300 billion above what Congress authorized for various weapons systems in the last five years. Military spending is out of control, and it is the best place for deficit hawks to look for cuts.
Thanks to the Bohemian for covering the backto-the-land issue with a rousing call to action by Art Kopecky (“A Broken Record,� Nov. 3). He is right about the unlikelihood of growing out of this recession due to environmental limits. Thanks to him, and other veterans of the ’60s, new communities dot the land. Some communities such as Twin Oaks in Virginia have survived for half a century. But questions remain: What about average families aspiring to college for their kids? We could have free college for all if we redirected our tax dollars from unnecessary wars abroad. What about seniors who need assisted living and on-site

medical care? Many elders can exchange cash for care as well as contribute wisdom and guidance. How do we reach this demographic? We can’t wait for government, but how do we preserve Medicare and Social Security and other promised benefits government can provide from the taxes we have paid if priorities are rearranged? These resources are an important base if the communities movement is to take off. Intergenerational communities could be open to everyone, not just the wealthy and ablebodied. Democracy is not something we have, it’s something we do.

;8BC4=D?2;8=C40BCF>>3 A great sage once said, “He who ‘says’ don’t know, he who ‘knows’ don’t say.� The new film Hereafter tries to “say� but clearly “don’t know.� From time immemorial, mankind has pondered what happens after physical death. All organized and disorganized religions “say,� but do they really know? Hereafter raises a hypothesis, and the heroine purports near-death experiences. Of course, there will always be skeptics who believe only in an endless void after physical life. I wish Clint Eastwood had researched this important work and added some details of the after-death experience, explained in beautiful, highly uplifting detail, to help make sense of the age-old mystery: “What happens next?� We could all have left the theater less confused and much happier than we ever felt before.

Sutter Hospital faces lawsuits in Marin and Sonoma counties By Lois Pearlman

large plateau of dirt sits next to the Wells Fargo Center in Santa Rosa as the future site of Sutter Hospital, scheduled to be built and opened within the next five years. But Sutter Health’s plan to expand its presence in the North Bay has come up against two lawsuits: one filed by Marin General Hospital and another by a coalition of hospitals, transportation and union interests in Santa Rosa. In Greenbrae, the Marin General Hospital Healthcare District is suing Sutter to repay $120 million, which the district says Sutter siphoned before returning the management of the hospital to the district in July. “We think more was taken, but $120 million is our strongest case,� says Marin General spokesman Pete Hillan.
Under its contract, which was originally slated to end in 2015, Sutter had been managing Marin General and taking an average of $3 million in profits out of the hospital each year, according to Hillan. He describes it as “pooling profits,� whereby Sutter removes money from its more profitable operations and uses that money to build new facilities and upgrade older ones. Additionally, a 1994 state law deemed that hospitals not earthquake-proof must retrofit by 2014, one year before the contract’s expiration. In 2006, a dispute over who would pay to retrofit the hospital and what Hillan calls “a bubbling up of other management issues� resulted in an agreement to end the contract early, in July 2010. At that point, according to Hillan, Sutter increased its take of the hospital’s profits 10-fold, averaging about $30 million a year. Sutter was able to accomplish this, says Hillan,
because it had filled the hospital’s board of directors with cooperative Sutter employees. Also, according to Hillan, Sutter spent $37 million in profits from Marin General to purchase Marin Square Shopping Center in San Rafael where it planned to build a new Sutter hospital that “would be in direct competition with Marin General.� Sutter tells a different story. According to spokesman Pete Gleeson, Sutter followed the stipulations of the 2006 agreement to end the contract early, leaving $10 million in the Marin General till and another $20 million in patient accounts receivables. Furthermore, he says, the agreement required that the two parties arbitrate any differences outside of court. Still, Hillan says, the agreement “does not relieve Sutter and former board members of their fiduciary responsibility� to leave Marin General with enough money &%

to make necessary improvements, including an estimated $400 million retrofit required to keep the hospital open. “Sutter violated its legal and moral obligations to Marin General, as well as to the citizens of Marin County,� he says. Meanwhile, in Santa Rosa, Sutter is named as a “real party of interest� in a lawsuit challenging the Sonoma County Board of Supervisors’ approval of an environmental study for construction of a new Sutter hospital. Currently, Sutter is leasing the countyowned site of the former Community Hospital on Chanate Road in northeast Santa Rosa under a 1996 healthcare access agreement between Sutter and the county. The agreement requires Sutter to provide services to the county such as indigent care, jail inmate care and reproductive services for women in exchange for the use of the hospital. As a 20-year contract, the access agreement had been due to expire in 2016. But since the state of California requires all older hospitals to meet seismic standards by 2014 or face closure, Sutter told the county it would rather build a new hospital in Santa Rosa than retrofit the Chanate Road site. The county acquiesced, approving a business plan in 2004 that included a new hospital on land next to the Wells Fargo Center. Sutter purchased the property in 2006, though just one year later attempted to pull out of its access agreement with the county and transfer the services included in that agreement to Santa Rosa Memorial Hospital. That attempt was ultimately unsuccessful. Over the next few years, plans for the new hospital underwent several permutations, resulting in a 116-bed hospital with 12 emergency room bays and potential for expansion, for which county supervisors approved an environmental impact report in August. The approval also includes extending Sutter’s access agreement with the county until 2021. But a coalition of groups that filed a lawsuit against Sutter in September say supervisors violated the law when they approved the study because it does not meet the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The coalition includes the North Sonoma County Healthcare District in Healdsburg, Palm Drive Health Care District in Sebastopol, the California Nurses Association and Transportation Solutions Defense and Education Fund, based in San Rafael. The lawsuit lists ways the coalition believes the study sidestepped the CEQA to rush the project, because otherwise Sutter would have needed a plan in place by the end of the year to meet state seismic requirements on the old Community Hospital site. Plaintiffs in the lawsuit say they have avoided seeking a court injunction to stop work on the new hospital while the lawsuit is settled, because it could result in the state shutting down the current hospital. Instead, they say, the lawsuit is intended as a wake-up call to the county that the new hospital is not a magic bullet that will resolve the county’s healthcare problems. For example, plaintiffs say, there is no decisive arrangement for what may happen in 2021 when the healthcare access agreement expires. “There are too many social, environmental and economic issues simply to limp along for the next few years,�
says Scott Stegeman, a consultant for the plaintiffs. “It makes more sense to start working on a long-term plan now.� Rita Scardaci, the county’s director of health services, responds that it’s too soon to plan beyond 2021. “We don’t know what will happen after 2021,� she says. “With healthcare reform, nobody knows what will happen, what changes there will be in healthcare. Medi-Cal is being expanded. The number of individuals without insurance is shrinking. There’s more focus on prevention. And there’s an option to renegotiate an extension of the healthcare access agreement.�
‘Sutter violated its legal and moral obligations to Marin General.’ —Pete Hillan The county doesn’t need an agreement with Sutter to fulfill its obligations as a provider of last resort, says Sonoma County administrative services officer Ron Stroud. Like 33 other counties in California, it provides indigent care through a county medical services provision, a program for low-income, uninsured patients funded through state sales tax and a portion of the state vehicle license fee. Stroud says the county has contracts with all of the local hospitals to provide care for these recipients. The plaintiffs in the suit counter that there will be fewer hospitals to provide that care should Sutter recruit physicians from smaller district hospitals. According to the suit, the EIR “fails to address the substantial possibility that the project will result in the downsizing or closure of public district hospitals and other medical facilities in the region.� “It’s no secret,� says William Arnone, attorney for the Healdsburg healthcare district. “It’s the Sutter model. They use aggressive recruitment to go after the best physicians. They buy up physicians’ practices.� This could become a problem for the county as well as local residents who use district hospitals, because the county has “gone on record that all district hospitals are an integral part of the county’s disaster plans,� Stegeman explains. Another problem outlined in the suit is the new hospital’s location in unincorporated county land with limited public transportation, posing both access and environmental concerns. “Despite the county’s stated commitment to reducing greenhouse gases and facilitating mass transit, the county never seriously considered alternatives that would achieve these goals,� it states. In fact, the plaintiffs point out, the EIR includes no viable alternatives, such as locating a new hospital in an area that is closer to low-income populations and more mass transit. Meanwhile, construction of the new hospital is moving forward. Lisa Amador, a spokesperson for Sutter Santa Rosa, said Sutter has already broken ground and expects to open the new facility in late 2014. “We don’t plan to change our mission,� she said. “We take care of everybody. A lot will happen with healthcare between now and 2021.�

Why do God-awful films become cult fetish objects? By Daedalus Howell

ailure� is the new f-word. In recent years, the notion of failure has become something of an academic and media flashpoint for everyone from Malcom Gladwell to FailCon 2010, a convention celebrating entrepreneurial failures that ponders the positive possibilities of blowing it. No one, however, seems to blow it with higher entertainment value than filmmakers, resulting in many an effort justifiably rated F. For some, this is something of a blessing, as is the case with the legendary 1990 flop Troll 2, which has not only found redemption as a cult film but has warranted examination in a recently released feature documentary. Best Worst Movie, released on DVD this month by Docudrama Films, examines the illfated, pseudo-sequel to horror-fantasy film Troll and the cult following it has developed in the intervening 20 years. That the second Troll film is related to its predecessor only in title (thanks to canny distributors eager to capitalize on the minor success of the original) is the least of the issues facing Troll 2, and Best Worst Movie director Michael Paul Stephenson examines it with an ennobling tenderness. As well he should. As an aspiring child actor, Stephenson played the film’s hero, a whining 10-yearold boy whose family’s house-swap is blighted by goblins. (Of course, no actual “trolls� appear in the film.) The New Yorker heralded Stephenson’s Best Worst Movie as “hilarious and sad . . . priceless,� which is entirely merited. His cinematic postmortem presents a cogent case for why certain truly terrible films become beloved cinematic fetish objects. The secret ingredient? Earnestness. A rotten f lick produced with total sincerity and a commitment to its asinine premise stands a chance of scoring a half-life in midnight screenings and breathless approbation from movie bloggers. The only irony allowed is that brought by the audience itself. It’s an odd pas de deux between the viewer and the viewed, wherein derision and adoration begin to blur, and somehow over the course of a film’s runtime, catharsis and redemption are found by both audience and artist. In this scenario, filmmakers must come to accept that their artistic intentions are irrelevant when a cult takes ownership of
their work and uses it to foment community, no matter how farcical their objectives. The audience, for its part, goes from merely enduring a work to endearing it, committing its every nuance to memory and frequently staging reenactments of pivotal scenes, as Best Worst Movie reveals on several occasions. Then, at some point, the cult’s ironic pose melts away like a sugar coating, and the bittersweet truth that some Quixotic schmuck poured his savings and soul into a piece of shit becomes distastefully evident. Too committed to turn back, the audience swallows this sad fact, eulogizing good intentions while enshrining failure. Be assured that making crappy movies (with heart) is not a recommended career move for would-be auteurs. It is, however, cause for ref lection, particularly since selfref lection on the part of some filmmakers seems so hard-won. The Room, which, like Troll 2, has had numerous screenings (including one last week at Carnegie Mellon University, no less) is such a steaming pile of ego-aggrandizement that director Tommy Wiseau tellingly claims that it was his intention to create a “black comedy,� though several cast members have steadfastly denied this. (Wiseau accepted Harvard’s Ivory Tower Award as Filmmaker of the Year several months ago.) Wiseau is not alone. Director James Nguyen, whose take on avian terror, Birdemic: Shock and Terror, is differentiated from Alfred Hitchcock’s iconic Birds by virtue of the fact that his killer birds were principally “eagles and vultures� (as relayed during a recent radio interview with this columnist), has a legion of “fans� who have driven interest in his film to an international level with copious press. Usually aligned with the “shock and terror� portion of the title, the rubbernecking media coverage of the film only adds more wind beneath Nguyen’s wings, and interestingly, he doesn’t appear to care that his art is some kind of inside joke. The fact is, against all conceivable odds, he made it. And therein lies the key. These guys are underdogs, and given our cultural proclivity to root for the little guy, it’s little wonder that these films find audiences to champion them. One might suspect it’s not so much the films that audiences are identifying with as it is their makers. If that’s failure, it’s really not so bad.
Making crappy movies is not a recommended career move.

won’t forget the miles of slick caused by bunker fuel spilled near the Bay Bridge last October, nor the tanker crash that dumped 58,000 gallons of fuel in the San Francisco Bay in 2007. Perhaps that’s why I empathize with what people along the Gulf Coast have suffered since 4.9 million barrels of crude oil were released into their waters during BP’s Deepwater Horizon disaster. There’s a chance to help them, but it has to happen now, while Congress is in lame-duck session. Think of it as a Robin Hood move of taking money from BP and using it to restore the Gulf ’s ecosystems. It could be just that simple, so long as we apply sufficient pressure on senators to pass legislation already passed by the House, before the Senate breaks for the holidays. The legislation would allow a Gulf restoration plan to be funded by a portion of the fines expected from BP for violating the Clean Water Act and the Oil Pollution Act—between $5 billion and $21 billion—but only a portion. Where will the rest of the money go? David Ringer, speaking from his Vicksburg, Miss., office of the National Audubon Society, tells me the money that BP will eventually pay in fines isn’t directed at restoration. Instead, he says, “it goes to the oilspill liability trust fund that the government manages to help it respond to and clean up future oil spills.� But Ringer and his colleagues at the National Wildlife Federation in Baton Rouge and the Environmental Defense Fund in Washington, D.C., believe that some of the money from BP’s fines should fund critically needed restoration work in the Gulf. “What we’re calling for in this case,� explains Ringer, “is to direct some of that money to restoration, because the damage was so extensive to a number of ecosystems. Don’t just lock the money away and not let it get to the region that was so damaged by this event.� The three environmental groups together have stated that Congress needs to prioritize passing the legislation this week “to dedicate Clean Water Act fines paid by BP to environmental restoration in the Gulf region for the sake of the region’s tourism, fishing and shipping industries, which are
the backbone of its economic future.� The oil-spill response bill passed by Congress would direct $1 billion of BP’s fines to Gulf restoration. But leading up to the recent election, the Senate has neglected to act on the bill. One billion dollars is a relatively small percentage of BP’s fines, and apparently it isn’t even controversial. “Nobody is really on the other side of this,� says Ringer, “so that’s why we’re saying this to the Senate. There’s a lame duck Senate here, we know it’s short, but let’s just get this done. Let’s please demonstrate political goodwill and the ability to work together for the next two years.� One obstacle is that the oil-spill response bill is part of larger oil and gas regulation in the Consolidated Land, Energy, and Aquatic Resources Act (CLEAR). Sean Crowley, of the Natural Resources Defense Council, explains the urgency. “The lame duck session may be the best and/or last chance to get funding for Gulf Coast restoration,� says Crowley, since the CLEAR act will die at the end of the year. Furthermore, Rep. Charlie Melancon, DLa., who added the restoration provision to the act, gave up his seat to run in Louisiana against Sen. David Vitter, R-La.—but lost. “The GOP will be running the House leadership next year,� Crowley says, and while the Melancon amendment passed unanimously by voice vote, all but two house Republicans opposed the energy bill it was attached to, “which is why,� Crowley adds, “the bill will never see the light of day in the next GOP-controlled Congress.� Should the bill pass, it would invariably help the eroding Mississippi Bay Delta region which for 80 years has lost an average of 25 square miles annually. (“That’s an area the size of Manhattan,� notes Ringer.) The BP funds could even go toward rectifying environmental troubles that existed before the disaster, also caused by oil and gas operations. Meanwhile, the Huffington Post last week reported that BP is already back to making profits, even after paying out roughly $40 billion for the Gulf mess. Shouldn’t restoration get a mere $1 billion of that?

A>>C8=60A>D=3 Planted alongside garlic, carrots can grow to be sweeter than ever.
D]STaVa^d]SBRT]T Carrots and garlic perfect for planting, making mayo together By Ari LeVaux

ust when you thought you could finally escape the garden, it’s already time to plant garlic. This rite of autumn has been an important event in my gardening season for years, but this past summer the garlic patch became more crucial than ever. That’s because I devised a method to make the garlic patch grow a bunch of other crops, too, without any loss of garlic production. I call my method “hurling random seeds at garlic patch.� This is more than just a horticultural parlor trick. When you grow as much garlic as I do, that patch takes a lot of garden space, leaving precious little ground for all the other goodies one might wish to grow. Intercropping other crops with garlic substantially increases the yield from however much ground you’ve got to work with. Last April, I gathered the seeds from countless half-empty seed packets and plastic bags, and combined these seeds in a bowl. I tossed handfuls
of this mix into the young garlic patch, hoping some of the plants would take hold. Throughout the summer I repeated this procedure with newly acquired seeds—mostly carrots, because I had a feeling they’d work well. The little plants took hold wherever conditions were favorable, and grew in the shade of garlic plants and each other. The seedlings had plenty of water since I irrigate my garlic like a maniac. By harvest time, my garlic crop was as big and healthy as usual, but in between those plants, the ground was carpeted with edible quantities of lettuce, spinach, cucumbers, peppers, tomatoes, escarole, radicchio, beets, squash, broccoli and amaranth. After I harvested the garlic in July, the spawn of those hurled seeds switched into high gear, their status on the ecological ladder having switched from shaded understory to full-sun canopy. The post-garlic garden became a dense and diverse ecosystem, easy on the eyes as well as the belly. Harvesting from this garden was an act of gathering as much as gardening, and
gave an element of surprise to every harvesting adventure. Over the course of the summer, many plants, like spinach, escarole, lettuce and amaranth, went to seed, ensuring new generations will be ready to come up next year if I let them. Of all my post-garlic plants, it was the carrots that stole the show. They grew to be monsters— as sweet as candy, heavy enough to require excess baggage charges and big enough to make a porn star blush. Clearly, the carrots didn’t seem to mind the garlic. And based on my garlic crop, the feeling appears to be mutual. The lush carrot foliage shaded the ground between the garlic plants, acting as a living mulch to prevent evaporation from the soil, while underground, the carrot roots and garlic bulbs seemed to leave each other alone. Above ground, garlic and carrots complement each other nicely in the kitchen as well, demonstrated with savory elegance by carrot mayonnaise. Although it’s not a true mayonnaise, carrot mayo fulfills the basic &+ THE BOHEMIAN

requirement of mayo; namely, if you put it on food, food will taste better. This year, thanks to my garlic patch and the vigorous carrot crop it produced, I’m going to make a lot of that sweet, orange, creamy goodness. Slice your carrots into inch-size chunks. Bake them at 300 degrees, stirring every 10 to 15 minutes, until they’re lightly browned. Remove, and while they cool add a quarter cup of oil (I prefer olive or saff lower) to a blender, along with as many cloves of garlic as suits you, and blend. As soon as the carrot chunks are cool enough to work with, add them to the blender and blend until smooth. The hotter the chunks, the more they will cook the raw garlic, which mellows it. Depending on how much carrot you’re working with, add oil as necessary, so the contents of the blender keep a viscous vortex as the blades whirl. When you’re done adding carrots, keep blending as you season with salt and pepper and, if you wish, herbs like oregano or marjoram. Your carrot mayo is now ready. Spread it on bread. Dip chips in it. Or wallop a dollop onto your plate beside the main event. Whatever you do with it, your carrot mayo will soon be gone, and your first bite should provide enough incentive to plan your own garlic patch garden ecosystem. If so, then it’s time to start breaking ground. Cultivated properly, any garlic clove can grow into a whole bulb. So the first step in garlic growing is to locate some bulbs of garlic you think will flourish in your area. The farmers market is the ideal place to find proven local varieties and to compare the characteristics you’re looking for. I look for garlic that grows into big bulbs with a small number of cloves per bulb (six at most). And I like my cloves to peel easy. Generally planted in October or November, garlic will sprout roots in fall and begin its upward journey in spring. Garlic is a heavy feeder, so it will need good soil with plenty of nitrogen and organic material. For planting, carefully break your bulbs into individual cloves, leaving the paper on and making sure the scabby plate at the bottom of each clove remains intact—the edge of that scab will sprout the roots. Plant the cloves an inch deep, scab side down, six inches apart. Then mulch your patch with a couple inches of straw (not hay, which contains seeds). The mulch will insulate the garlic through winter and help the soil retain moisture. I used to leave the mulch on all spring and let the garlic sprouts push through it, but now I pull the mulch off in March to let the ground warm up in preparation for hurling seeds in April. This spring, I’ll hurl about half of the patch in carrots, while conducting more random hurling trials in the other half. Until then, I’ll be planting garlic, f lipping through seed catalogues, and eating carrot mayo.

Army barracks aren’t where you’d usually hunt down a culinary experience, but the Cavallo Point Cooking School in Sausalito might be the one scrumptious exception. Tucked along the shores of the San Francisco Bay at the foot of the Golden Gate Bridge, Cavallo Point sits at the former site of Fort Baker and houses a cooking school with a state-of-the-art teaching kitchen and a stable of culinary talent. On Nov. 18, the school partners with Marin Organic to offer the second in its successful class series “A Tale of Two Farmers,â€? which brings together farmers Annabelle Lenderlink from La Tercera and Kevin and Nancy Lunny from Drakes Bay Farm for a convivial evening of cooking and conversation. Students will prepare and enjoy a seasonal ďŹ ve-course meal with wine pairings under the instruction of head chef and teacher Jayne Reichert. “It’s the perfect opportunity to ask any and every question you ever wanted to know about how our local farmers grow and sell their food,â€? says Anna Hillgruber Smith Clark of Marin Organic. In the spirit of whetting your appetite, the meal begins with oysters and ďŹ nishes with apple fritters with cinnamon-cayenne syrup and fresh cream on Thursday, Nov. 18, at Cavallo Point Cooking School. 601 Murray Circle, Sausalito. 6–9pm. $85. 415.339.4777.

Fresh from her appearance on The Next Iron Chef, Duskie delves into dairy. The class begins with an hour-long tour of the farm, where visitors get to know the cows (“The happiest you’ll ever meet,â€? says Fork owner Jill Giacomini), followed by a hands-on primer in sustainable agriculture and cheesemaking. Then it’s back to the culinary center for cheese tasting, cooking and dining.

A8E4AA>03 E8=4H0A3B rices are good at Santa Rosa’s cavernous discount liquor warehouse, the Bottle Barn. Real good. But $12 Russian River Valley Pinot Noir? Generally, not that good. Generally, that’s not real. Unfamiliar with the name, I guessed it was a second label of some better-known winery, an anonymized knockoff meant to move some surplus out the back door in a hurry. It is not. In fact, River Road has its own second label, MacKenzie, available in local independent supermarkets. So, for the love of the good, dead grape, why in the world, and in this day and age, would a winery not advertise loudly, change fresh balloons daily, barbecue on weekends and feed us tweets every day in between? Because they’re doing quite well without all that, thank you.
P
“You know, if I was starving,â€? muses winemaker Gary Mills, “I might scratch around for some other approach.â€? In business for 30 years, Mills oversees production of 40,000 cases of value-priced Sonoma County and Russian River Valley appellated wine a year, with an antipathy for dead inventory and a business model as stable as a barge. Admitting that he’s not really suited for the “dog and pony showâ€? of marketing, Mills sells mostly though East Coast distributors and makes custom-label cases of some of the balance for outďŹ ts like the Fairmont Hotel and St. Francis Yacht Club. Such customers often don’t bother to taste, taking it on faith that the 2009 Sauvignon Blanc will have lemonlime and honeydew melon aromas with a zippy palate that’ll give one gooseberries. Less buttery than nutty, the 2009 Russian River Valley Chardonnay ($16) is styled rich and chewy, something like grated cheese over smokehouse almonds. A boutique-scale release, the 2008 Russian River Valley Pinot Meunier ($16) is vinted from the second crop of this more productive cousin of Pinot Noir, and owes its concentration to late-picked, Lilliputian clusters. Wild grape, violets and juicy Beaujolais-style avor ďŹ nishes on a ďŹ rm, plum skin note. Just one year in the making, the 2009 Russian River Valley Pinot Noir ($18), hinting at orange zest, is a perfectly serviceable, if currently shy, representative of the region that may repay revisiting in a few months. A special bottling really shows off what River Road can do. Assembled from select barrels for an East Coast account, the 2008 Vanessa’s Pinot Noir ($34) shows bacon-fact smokiness from big-ticket cooperage, and dense avors of licorice and dried cherries. Hard luck that limited releases like this may not be always available, let alone not at those aforementioned, real good prices. Unless, of course, one is given to haunting cavernous wine warehouses from time to time. River Road Vineyards, 5220 Ross Road, Sebastopol. Tasting by appointment only, Monday–Friday. 707.887.8130. James Knight

h, I get it. That incessant jingle-bell sound I hear all around me is not Santa in his sleigh, arriving early for a strategic, pre-Thanksgiving delivery. It’s local cash registers warming up for Black Friday, that annual day-afterThanksgiving milestone in which most retail businesses finally cross over from being in the red to be being in the black. Sure, we all hope our economy will recover soon, but all of this forced frivolity and predictably prepackaged proliferation of happy holiday hypnosis is enough to make any sane American snap his freaking tinsel. Yep. All of those plastic trees and canned music are impossible to escape. But there is one way to retain one’s sanity through it all. That’s by surrendering to the holidays, choosing one’s own path of descent into the all-consuming annual attitude people call “merry.� One way to ease into the madness is through the magic of theater. Fortunately, the North Bay theater community has lined up a heapin’ helpin’ of holiday entertainments to dazzle and amuse as we succumb to the siren call of Christmas. Let’s look at a few highlights, beginning with several variations on the same time-
THE BOHEMIAN
honored theme: Charles Dickens’ Christmas Carol. Like clockwork, Dickens’ inspirational ghost story appears every year, served up across the Bay Area like so many Christmas geese. Fortunately, which so many Carols competing for audience attention, North Bay theater artists always go above and beyond to bring something fresh and new to the story of nasty old Ebenezer Scrooge and his long Christmas Eve among the spirits. This year, all of them seem to be running concurrently, from Dec. 3 to Dec. 19. Let’s take them in alphabetical order. At the Imaginists Theater Collective, housed in a funky storefront at the edge of Juilliard Park in Santa Rosa, A Christmas Carol gets the taken-apart-and-put-back-together treatment the Imaginists have become known for. Few details have been released, but posters feature prominent images of chains (“I wear the chain I forged in life!�) and fire (hints of hellish damnation?), and local madman-mime Eliot Fintushel is a member of the cast, so it should be interesting. Odyssey Theater, now headquartered at the Spreckels Center in Rohnert Park, is offering up Christopher Durang’s twisted comedic spin-off of Carol titled Mrs. Bob Cratchit’s Wild Christmas Binge. A dark but funny alternative version of
the beloved tale, this variant directed by Carl Hamilton includes an obnoxiously goody-goody Tiny Tim, a Christmas Spirit who can’t do anything right and a surprise romance between Scrooge and the equally disgruntled Mrs. Cratchit. In Sebastopol, the Sonoma County Repertory Theater—long attached to Carol, having annually performed its own version to popular acclaim—is changing things up too, premiering a brand-new adaptation by playwright Jon Tracy, directed by Scott Phillips. The new version promises to ratchet up the emotion of the story with an even meaner Scrooge, a scarier Marley and no doubt an even more uplifting climax. (Say it with me: “God bless us, everyone!�) The best feature of the Christmas Carol production slotted to run Dec. 3–18 at the Cloverdale Performing Arts Center is that the show—employing another new adaptation, this one by Jerry Patch—will be the first to take place in the center’s long-planned new facility (really, really long—as long as Marley’s ponderous chain). It should be a great opportunity to visit the beautiful new building while the place still has that Christmas-y new-paint-and-carpet feeling. As crazy-glued on to the face of Christmas as A Christmas Carol is, there are other holiday tales just as permanently affixed on the end-of-the-year calendar. It’s a Wonderful Life continues to show up in various forms, and this year it’s Pegasus Theater with the most entertaining spin. Having found a new home at the historic Rio Nido Lodge (where Hollywood elite once gathered for some upstate R&R), Pegasus is taking us back to Christmas Eve, 1947, imagining a live radio broadcast of It’s a Wonderful Life, with music and sound effects to bring to life the story of manic-depressive George Bailey, who teams up with an inept angel to save Bedford Falls from the evil Mr. Potter. The show opens Dec. 3 and runs through Dec. 19. That old-time radio theme seems to be in the air at the moment, because not only has Sixth Street Playhouse just opened the much-loved 1940s Radio Hour, a radio-themed musical-comedy, on its main stage, the company will be bringing back last year’s smash holiday hit Ham for the Holidays. Written, directed and starring Shad Willingham, the slapstick farce takes place in a tiny radio station on Christmas Eve, where the ramshackle crew is waiting for the arrival of Orson Welles. Promising he’d lend his voice to the station’s new Christmas radio play, Welles’ presence looms large over the show, though he never technically shows up. What the dim-witted desperados do to fill his shoes is hysterically funny and, yes, even a bit heartwarming. And finally, speaking of returning traditions, after packing houses the last couple of years, local actor David Yen (aka Crumpet the elf ) now owns David Sedaris’ wicked SantaLand Diaries much in the way that Mr. Potter owns Bedford Falls. Once again directed by Argo Thompson, the naughty solo show—about one man’s elf-costumed foray into the world of a department-store Santa Land—will play in Marin and Sonoma counties. Beginning at the Marin Arts Gallery in San Rafael (Dec. 11 and 12), the show then moves to the Glaser Center for one night only on Dec. 17. Good for Crumpet. And good for us.
the wooden hero—snappily referred to as “N.C.� for today’s OMG lol kidz—viewer’s jaws will be on the f loor. Elle Fanning, who plays the little girl Mary in this catastrophe, turns up again in ‘Somewhere’ (December release). Sofia Coppola directs Fanning as the daughter reviving a jaded film star (Stephen Dorff ) cooling his heels at the Chateau Marmont. The concept is high as the hero’s beltbuckle in ‘Gulliver’s Travels’ (Dec. 22). Previews emphasize the contrivance of getting a nobody (Jack Black) to the isle of Lilliput, with the princess played by Emily Blunt. ‘Yogi Bear’ (Dec. 17) unites the drawling cartoon bruin with his old adversary Ranger Smith to foil a privatization scheme to sell Jellystone Park. Whatever happens, the real Yogi Berra is still alive.

Holiday movies a combo of Oscar faves, braindead duds
By Richard von Busack
C
he fatal and the phantasmagorical are the reigning components of this year’s holiday filmgoing. At the end of the year, expect rich, purple fantasy and dire tragedy. Blame the ever-darkening days before the solstice, blame the Oscars or, hell, blame the gathering darkness on the inevitable return of the Fockers. The most seemingly foolproof film in this season’s fare is the Coen Brothers’ ‘True Grit’ (opening Dec. 25). Jeff Bridges stars as one-eyed US Marshall Reuben “Rooster� Cogburn, late of Quantrill’s bushwhackers and bribed by an adolescent orphan to find a fugitive hiding in Indian territory. It’s not a straightforward job. The killer (Josh Brolin) is very bad news, Cogburn is not a young man, and the arrest plans are complicated by a typically fancy Texas Ranger called La Boeuf (Matt Damon) who has a competing claim on the corpus. Previews indicate this is not at all a remake of Henry Hathaway’s magnificent 1969 Western, featuring John Wayne’s most affecting acting. That movie, for all its beauty and sadness, lacks the Twain-worthy comic understatement, the evil humor and the dark places of Charles Portis’ novel. The Coens are the perfect savage humorists to adapt the book’s lurking darkness more faithfully, as seen in the best parts of No Country for Old Men. Moreover, they’ve retrieved the book’s settings, the sticks, briars and swamps of
Arkansas, and the plains of Oklahoma, the ever-mysterious Sooner State. Can anyone who loves the “the rare, fragrant Dude,� in film critic David Thomson’s words, wait to see Bridges in the role? Meanwhile, in the world of CGI, Harry Potter survives the blitzing of Hogwarts— or does he? The cliffhanging ‘Harry Potter and the Deathly Hollows, Part 1’ (Nov. 19) aims to help the viewer forget that closure must wait until next July. Some new swashbuckling amid evangelizing fantasy may be present in ‘The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader’ (Dec. 10), while ‘Tron: Legacy’ (Dec. 17) is a retro-future sequel exploring the revived sentient video game, with its cold neon, hot cycles and the aforementioned Bridges as the inventor imprisoned in his creation. ‘The Illusionist’ (opening Dec. 25 in limited release) proposes a bolder use for (flat) animation: bring back Monsieur Hulot! Sylvain Chomet (The Triplets of Belleville) directs this never-produced script by the elegant and strange Jacques Tati, star of Monsieur Hulot’s Holiday. Nov. 24 sees the release of Disney’s ‘Tangled,’ a cartoon updating of the Rapunzel myth overseen by the utterly reliable John Lasseter of Pixar. All films mentioned are guaranteed to be in better shape than the ballet-free ‘Nutcracker’ (Nov. 24). John Turturro is the Rat King trying to enforce a thousandyear Reich by carrying out a toy shoah, complete with ovens and smokestacks. Like
707-522-0330
Blame the gathering darkness on the inevitable return of the Fockers.
‘Burlesque’ (Nov. 24) and ‘Black Swan’ (December) have as their subject the travails of the stage. The first offers the glitz of Christine Aguilera and Cher as rivals in a cabaret. The latter, apparently a salute to Michael Powell’s Red Shoes, features the psychotropic reveries of Natalie Portman cracking under the strain of ballet, with director Darren Aronofsky (Requiem for a Dream) turning up the pressure. Romance has its chemical side in ‘Love & Other Drugs’ (Nov. 24) with Jake Gyllenhaal as a Viagra salesman in love with Anne Hathaway, while ‘I Love You Phillip Morris’ (December) sees Jim Carrey and Ewan McGregor taking bromance to its natural conclusion at last. Carrey is a closeted Texas cop who decides to bust his life open; McGregor is the prisoner with whom Carrey is a prisoner of love. As for the end of the year . . . From the director of Babel, we have ‘Biutiful,’ a guided tour of Barcelona trash dumps led by a semicriminal (Javier Bardem) dying horribly of prostate cancer. (It has its redemptive side.) Based on the celebrated play, ‘Rabbit Hole’ (Dec. 17 or 25) stars Aaron Eckhart and Nicole Kidman as parents dealing with the accidental death of their son. The new Mike Leigh film, ‘Another Year’ (Dec. 29), charting wintery dissatisfaction and autumnal humor, is opening just in time for Oscar qualification. The prospect of a new one by Leigh lightens the thought of a new year—of January floor sweepings and multiplexes clogged with ‘Little Fockers’ (Dec 25) . . . and looking at a title like that, one can only say the f-word aloud.

All recurring headliners in their own right, the folk songwriters Lucy Kaplansky, John Gorka and Eliza Gilkyson perform together in Sebastopol this weekend under the banner of their supergroup trio Red Horse. A self-titled album released this year is testament to the three performers’ camaraderie, as each takes turns singing lead on another’s song, sad as they may be. “As songwriters, it’s much easier to write songs when we’re working through grief,� says Eliza Gilkyson. “Whenever I write a happy song, I just want to drop down and do 10 pushups for Jesus.� Balancing out the set are a few covers, including Neil Young’s “I am a Child� and a stunning version of “Wayfaring Stranger,� which Red Horse had better play live when they appear on Saturday, Nov. 20, at the Sebastopol Community Center. 390 Morris St., Sebastopol. 8pm. $28–$33. 707.823.1511.
It’s harvest season, which means you’ve got at least one friend who’s picking up extra work trimming buds in a secret warehouse a few days a week. Even though it sounds like great fun, this is not work for the impatient, and it takes a detailed kind of skill. This harvest season, we salute the many men and women trimming weed, especially when reggae singer Don Carlos has a curious interpretation of the work. In the eyes of the former singer of Black Uhuru, it is not your bro Danny manicuring the killer ganj, but Jah himself. “Jah shall clean out the bad weeds and separate them from the good,� Carlos sings on “Harvest Time,� “’cause the day of harvest is near.� It is hard to argue with Jah, but should Danny care to defend himself, he can raise the issue when Carlos performs on Friday, Nov. 19, at the Last Day Saloon. 120 Fifth St., Santa Rosa. 9pm. $17–$20. 707.545.5876.

THE BOHEMIAN
East Los Angeles often gets credit for launching the Chicano soul sound of the early 1970s, and with good reason. Thee Midniters, El Chicano, Tierra, War—the list of seminal groups to blare in the 1948 Chevy coupe while cruising down Whittier Boulevard goes on and on, and almost always leads back to Southern California. The major exception is Malo, whose 1972 debut launched the mega-hit “Suavecito� and planted San Francisco on the Latin-soul map. Featuring Jorge Santana (yes, Carlos’ brother), the band has undergone more lineup changes than Jessica Simpson’s had cosmetic surgeries, but the sound remains even into their fourth decade. Celebrate San Francisco’s Mission district in a 40th anniversary celebration when Malo play Saturday, Nov. 20, at the Uptown Theatre. 1350 Third St., Napa. 8pm. $25. 707.259.0333.
You’ve got your Lord-loving, Bible-toting friends and then you’ve got your God-decrying, Hitchens-quoting friends. And in an age of increased pressure to draw up battle lines, both political and spiritual, Marin resident Michael Krasny is brave enough to ask what all the fuss is about. Spiritual Envy: An Agnostic’s Quest is his 249-page love letter to those who’ve questioned the existence of God, come up with no hard evidence one way or the other and thrown up their hands in semi-satisfied surrender. The host of KQED 91.1-FM’s talk show Forum, Krasny tackles the big question in a poised book that’s part personal memoir, part dissertation and all courage. Try to convince your sparring friends to come along when Krasny appears on Tuesday, Nov. 23, at Book Passage. 51 Tamal Vista Blvd., Corte Madera. 7pm. Free. 415.927.0960.

Mark O’Connor only has two hands—really ust like hearing Don Pullen play full-bodied, barrelhouse piano rolls or listening to John Fahey play inverted, complex fingerpicked guitar patterns for the first time, every listener has the same reaction to hearing Mark O’Connor’s incredible violin work “Appalachia Waltz.� It can’t possibly be just one violin player, they say. No one has that kind of technique. O’Connor does. It’s not just his multistringed playing that’s impressive; it’s the fact that his notes resound with gossamer smoothness. Suffer through an amateur student attempting to tackle “Appalachia Waltz,� and it’s all too clear that O’Connor is in a class by himself. Under the direction of Nadja Salerno-Sonnenberg, the New Century Chamber Orchestra this weekend welcomes O’Connor for a program of what he calls a “new American classical music,� drawing inspiration from folk to jazz to the southern melodies of Stephen Foster. The NCCO last month hosted frequent O’Connor collaborator Edgar Meyer, but instead of the strict classical program Meyer presented, O’Connor will be playing his own compositions, including “Song of the Liberty Bell,� “Strings and Threads� and, yes, the beautiful “Appalachia Waltz.� Be hypnotized anew when he appears on Sunday, Nov. 21, at the Osher Marin Jewish Community Center. 200 N. San Pedro Road, San Rafael. 5pm. $29–$49. 415.392.4400. Gabe Meline

THE BOHEMIAN
By Gabe Meline

C
he whole record is a tribute to my grandmother and the story of her passing,� says Nick Wolch, sitting across from me. “There was this big, epic Shakespearean tragedy involved.� A tall figure in a scarf and thick hair, Wolch tells me about how his grandmother exiled his own mother from the family for 34 years, and how only divorce and death brought the two together again. He tells me how on Christmas Eve, two years ago, his grandmother was diagnosed with a brain tumor the size of a baseball. He tells me how his mother suddenly had to watch a parent who’d physically and mentally abused her slowly die. “It was a big deal for me,� Wolch continues. “So the whole record, all four songs, are specifically about one moment that I had with either my mom or my grandmother as she was passing. And the last song is the physical embodiment of her death.� He considers the bombast of that last statement, and asks for a pen. He writes something on the record, and hands it to me. I look down at his handwriting: “The Strength of Weak Ties,� it reads. Under the name Goodriddler, Nick Wolch has played over a hundred shows in the last three years and released a fulllength album, Tickling the Tail of the Tiger.
That debut ably balanced inf luences of Aphex Twin and Radiohead in a palatable context, and as such was featured this year on NPR’s All Songs Considered. When I play the record Wolch has just given me, however, I can’t help but think that Ira Glass would so not be into it. Fierce, lovely, earthen and human, The Strength of Weak Ties is by bounds the most accomplished release by Wolch and the strongest local release in years. Manipulating vintage Wurlitzer and Fender Rhodes keyboard sounds, exacting complex patterns from a live drum kit and singing forlornly about love and loss, Wolch has married the cerebral and the emotional in ways most will have probably thought didn’t exist anymore. Projects like this—especially from a talent as great as Wolch—used to readily find willing support in the golden era of the independent record label. But though independent labels are still flourishing, they’re unlikely to sign a band that hasn’t done a lot of preliminary legwork. In other words, if you haven’t toured the country three times, launched a massive viral marketing campaign and managed to stoke a substantial Pitchfork buzz on your own, don’t bother calling Matador Records. What of the idea that an artist needs space—and funding—to grow? No one can write good songs if tweeting the details of their band’s next show takes priority. “So many of our friends are in bands,� says Andy Pohl of Santa Rosa, “and they want to release something, but they just don’t have the means to.� This year, Pohl heard about Kickstarter from local band Mowz, who utilized the online funding platform to raise $2,735 for their CD, Every Sun Sings Its Own Song. “We made a big thing out of telling everyone else about it, for sure,� says Thomas Limper, adding that the money pledged online came mostly from friends, family members and fans. As is the Kickstarter model, each donation level came with rewards, from a signed copy of the CD ($20) to a handmade electric guitar ($1,000). Pohl, taken with the campaign, drew up an outline for a record label called Sell the Heart Records. It invoked successful independent labels of yore, promising commitment to artistry and inspiration from Fugazi. He hoped to raise $2,500. He failed. “But then we tried to be a little more focused,� Pohl says, “specifically for the Goodriddler record.� The subsequent campaign was a success, and Goodriddler’s vinyl EP will be released at an all-day extravaganza record-release show Nov. 27. The good part about the record is that it’s paid for up front, without the stress most bands feel of hustling to sell copies of their records in order to pay increasing credit-card bills from the pressing plant. But the even better part about it is that it’s an incredible suite of songs from the heart. “Nick’s a great guy,� Pohl says. “I can tell he’s passionate about what he’s playing. That to me is important. I dig his passion, and I’m behind it 100 percent.� Goodriddler plays with the Velvet Teen, Not to Reason Why, Snipers, Kindness and Lies, Low Five, Hanalei, Odd Bird and others on Saturday, Nov. 27, at the Arlene Francis Theatre. 99 Sixth St., Santa Rosa. 3pm. $7. No phone.

Narrow Way’s uneven ‘Wonderland’ is dark, funny and insightful onderland, as a vacation destination, has always been a bit sketchy, full of crazy people with violent urges. So in the original play Alice: The Rebellion of Wonderland, presented by Narrow Way Stage Company at the Spreckels Performing Arts Center, it’s a little surprising that Alice—now a contemporary teenager with a miserable home life and a tendency toward kleptomania—keeps thinking of Wonderland as the beautiful and friendly place she once visited and longs to see again. In Tony Ginesi and Merlyn Q. Sell’s original script, the point that Wonderland exists as a questionable alternative to Alice’s ugly reality gives us a large helping of psychological meat to chew on, and this dark but funny, theater-punk twist on Carroll’s tale is full of invention and insight—and some truly hilarious puns. Directed by John Browning with a notable emphasis on character (but perhaps not enough emphasis on pacing and consistency of tone), this edgy adaptation does interesting things with the notion that Wonderland is a figment of Alice’s imagination, and that whatever she has been feeling in the real world has become a part of Wonderland as well. When Alice (Autumn Mirassou, appropriately angsty), follows the White Rabbit through a kitchen cupboard, she finds herself locked behind bars in the Red Queen’s prison, quickly realizing that things in Wonderland aren’t quite as she remembers them. For one thing, no one remembers her, and the Red Queen has imprisoned much of the country, breaking their spirits by stealing all of their best-loved possessions. Alice quickly encounters her old, now completely miserable friends, from the quarrelsome Tweedledum and Tweedledee to the easily confused Mad Hatter. Humpty Dumpty even comes along for the adventure, as Alice gradually moves closer to a climactic encounter with the Red Queen, and her own real-life fears. Alice: The Rebellion of Wonderland runs Thursday– Sunday through Nov. 28 at Spreckels Center. Friday– Saturday at 8pm; Sunday at 5pm. 5409 Snyder Lane, in Rohnert Park. $10–$15. 707.588.3400.
