OPINION

EDITOR’S NOTE It’s hard to believe it’s been a year since Jack O’Neill died. The image from our cover that week, with the sly but warm smile on O’Neill’s face, has stayed with me—whenever he comes up in conversation or in something I’m reading, it’s the first thing I think of.

It was definitely on my mind reading Geoffrey Dunn’s cover story this week. This story wasn’t conceived to mark the anniversary of O’Neill’s death or anything like that; it’s pure coincidence that his ocean stewardship project is

celebrating taking its 100,000th student on their first educational ocean voyage.

And yet, I think it turned out to be one anyway, because the success of the O’Neill Sea Odyssey Program is exactly the kind of thing that was behind that slightly mystical smile. The story explains that O’Neill wasn’t just an ocean enthusiast who was able to make a living off his passion. He was also a fierce advocate for the well-being of the ocean, who wanted everyone to love the sea the way he did. In light of that, Dunn argues, the Sea Odyssey Program might be his most important achievement. After reading this story, you might agree.

HEARTBREAKING EPIDEMIC

LARRY PETERSON | SANTA CRUZ

Thank you for writing about the heartbreaking epidemic of whale entanglements on the West Coast (GT, 6/12). The whale rescuers do such important work, but it’s time for California to better manage the commercial crab fishery to prevent more of these entanglements from happening in the first place, before they kill or injure endangered whales. That’s why we at the Center for Biological Diversity sued the state, and we’re still waiting for it to meet its legal obligations to protect whales, particularly in entanglement hot spots like the Monterey Bay. We’ve had enough talk over the last three years as entanglements skyrocketed.

It’s time for action.

STEVEN JONES | CENTER FOR BIOLOGICAL DIVERSITY

MILLION-DOLLAR QUESTION Re: “Getting Inpatient” by Andrea Patton, (GT, 6/13): In this article, Pam RogersWyman, HSA Adult Services Director, is quoted as saying: “Our unspent funds are less than $3 million. That’s been really a misnomer that we’re sitting on millions of dollars. I think we’ve tried to correct it

QUALITY OF LIFE ISSUE Populations of homeless will continue to grow nationwide. Homeless shelters and rent subsidies are not keeping up. Evictions are spiking across the country. Sight unseen are the numbers of individuals and families who go broke between paychecks, making ends meet by substituting junk food. High rents force poor diets that contribute to diabetes, obesity, heart disease, cancer, depression, poor grades and crime.

Rent control will help a little, but rents are already unconscionably high.

Of course real estate agents, brokers, and property management trolls do protest.

They are the parasites in our society that get rich producing nothing, except buy a house, tack on an extra 50 grand, and re-sell it. The same house for which a family must work an extra 5-10 years to pay off, and spend less time with their children. No summer science camp for them.

Don’t let them scare you into thinking you’ll not be able to evict. First, there’s the lease contract. That can expire. If the contract is broken by illegal activity, the rent control eviction clause won’t stop you from evicting them. >8

YOUTH BE TOLD

The Bye Bye Mattress program will accept old mattresses and box springs free of charge Saturday, June 23, at 207 Natural Bridges Drive from 8 a.m. to noon.

Officials will accept up to five items per vehicle. The city of Santa Cruz accepts mattresses and box springs, also free of charge, Monday through Saturday at the Dimeo Lane landfill off Highway 1. The city received more than 5,000 mattresses last year, up 900 over 2016.

Funded by a $2.2 million Housing and Urban Development grant, Santa Cruz County has announced money for seven projects to address youth and young adult homelessness.

According to the 2017 Point-in-Time Count, there are 588 homeless unaccompanied minors and young adults under 24 locally, and 87 percent of homeless youth were living in Santa Cruz County at the time they became homeless, but are unable to find housing in Santa Cruz County’s housing market.

LIBRA Sep23–Oct 22

According to my analysis of the astrological omens, you have cosmic permission to enjoy extra helpings of waffles, crepes, pancakes, and blintzes. Eating additional pastries and doughnuts is also encouraged. Why? Because it’s high time for you to acquire more ballast.

You need more gravitas and greater stability. You can’t afford to be top-heavy; you must be hard to knock over.

If you would prefer not to accomplish this noble goal by adding girth to your butt and gut, find an alternate way.

Maybe you could put weights on your shoes and think very deep thoughts.

The coming weeks will be a favorable time to accentuate and brandish the qualities that best exemplify your Libran nature. In other words, be extreme in your moderation. Be pushy in your attempts to harmonize. Be bold and brazen as you make supple use of your famous balancing act. I’ll offer you a further piece of advice, as well.

My first astrology teacher believed that when Librans operate at peak strength, their symbol of power is the iron fist in the velvet glove: power expressed gracefully, firmness rendered gently. I urge you to explore the nuances of that metaphor.

TAURUS Apr20–May20

SCORPIO Oct23–Nov21

You’re slipping into the wild heart of the season of discovery. Your curiosity is mounting. Your listening skills are growing more robust. Your willingness to be taught and influenced and transformed is at a peak. And what smarter way to take advantage of this fertile moment than to decide what you most want to learn about during the next three years? For inspiration, identify a subject you’d love to study, a skill you’d eagerly stretch yourself to master, and an invigorating truth that would boost your brilliance if you thoroughly embodied it.

If I were your mom, I’d nudge you out the door and say, “Go play outside for a while!” If I were your commanding officer, I’d award you a shiny medal for your valorous undercover work and then order you to take a frisky sabbatical. If I were your psychotherapist, I would urge you to act as if your past has no further power to weigh you down or hold you back, and then I would send you out on a vision quest to discover your best possible future. In other words, my dear Scorpio, I hope you will flee your usual haunts. Get out of the loop and into the open spaces that will refresh your eyes and heart.

GEMINI May21–June20 Playwright and novelist Samuel Beckett won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1969. Four of his works were essential in earning that award: the play Waiting for Godot, and the novels Molloy, Malone Dies, and The Unnamable.

Beckett wrote all of them in a two-year span during the late 1940s. During that time, he was virtually indigent. He and his companion Suzanne survived on the paltry wage she made as a dressmaker. We might draw the conclusion from his life story that it is at least possible for a person to accomplish great things despite having little money.

I propose that we make Beckett your role model for the coming weeks, Gemini. May he inspire you to believe in your power to become the person you want to be no matter what your financial situation may be.

CANCER Jun21–Jul22 I suggest you ignore the temptation to shop around for new heroes and champions. It would only distract you from your main assignment in the coming weeks, which is to be more of a hero and champion yourself. Here are some tips to guide you as you slip beyond your overly modest self-image and explore the liberations that may be possible when you give yourself more credit. Tip #1: Finish outgrowing the old heroes and champions who’ve served you well. Tip #2: Forgive and forget the disappointing heroes and hypocritical champions who betrayed their own ideals. Tip #3: Exorcise your unwarranted admiration for mere celebrities who might have snookered you into thinking they’re heroes or champions.

“A waterfall would be more impressive if it flowed the other way,” said Irish writer Oscar Wilde. Normally, I would dismiss an idea like this, even though it’s funny and I like funny ideas. Normally, I would regard such a negative assessment of the waterfall’s true nature, even in jest, to be unproductive and enfeebling. But none of my usual perspectives are in effect as I evaluate the possibility that Wilde’s declaration might be a provocative metaphor for your use in the coming weeks. For a limited time only, it might be wise to meditate on a waterfall that flows the other way.

VIRGO Aug23–Sep22 Stage magicians may seem to make a wine glass hover in mid-air, or transform salt into diamonds, or make doves materialize and fly out of their hands. It’s all fake, of course—tricks performed by skilled illusionists. But here’s a twist on the old story: I suspect that for a few weeks, you will have the power to generate effects that may, to the uninitiated, have a resemblance to magic tricks—except that your magic will be real, not fake. And you will have worked very hard to accomplish what looks easy and natural. And the marvels you generate will, unlike the illusionists’, be authentic and useful.

SAGITTARIUS Nov22–Dec21 Sex education classes at some high schools employ a dramatic exercise to illustrate the possible consequences of engaging in heterosexual lovemaking without using birth control. Everywhere they go for two weeks, students must carry around a 10-pound bag of flour. It’s a way for them to get a visceral approximation of caring for an infant. I recommend that you find or create an equivalent test or trial for yourself in the coming days.

As you consider entering into a deeper collaboration or making a stronger commitment, you’ll be wise to undertake a dress rehearsal.

CAPRICORN Dec22–Jan19 Members of the Dull Men’s Club celebrate the ordinary.

“Glitz and glam aren’t worth the bother,” they declare.

“Slow motion gets you there faster,” they pontificate.

Showing no irony, they brag that they are “born to be mild.” I wouldn’t normally recommend becoming part of a movement like theirs, but the next two weeks will be one of those rare times when aligning yourself with their principles might be healthy and smart. If you’re willing to explore the virtues of simple, plain living, make the Swedish term *lagom* your word of power. According to the Dull Men’s Club, it means “enough, sufficient, adequate, balanced, suitable, appropriate.”

AQUARIUS Jan20–Feb18 In the Georgian language, shemomechama is a word that literally means “I ate the whole thing.” It refers to what happens when you’re already full, but find the food in front of you so delicious that you can’t stop eating.

I’m concerned you might soon be tempted to embark on metaphorical versions of shemomechama. That’s why I’m giving you a warning to monitor any tendencies you might have to get too much of a good thing. Pleasurable and productive activities will serve you better if you stop yourself before you go too far.

PISCES Feb19–Mar20 Please do not send me a lock of your hair or a special piece of your jewelry or a hundred dollar bill. I will gladly cast a love spell in your behalf without draining you of your hard-earned cash. The only condition I place on my free gift is that you agree to have me cast the love spell on you and you alone. After all, your love for yourself is what needs most work. And your love for yourself is the primary magic that fuels your success in connecting with other people. (Besides, it’s bad karma to use a love spell to interfere with another person’s will.) So if you accept my conditions, Pisces, demonstrate that you’re ready to receive my telepathic love spell by sending me your telepathic authorization.

Tie Game

Winner unclear in fight over the rail trail, as RTC moves forward with freight agreement BY JACOB PIERCE [This is the final part of a five-part series on the future of the rail corridor.]

T

here’s an old meme that comes to mind for me when I think about the local rail trail debate.

It traces its origins back to Donald Rumsfeld, the secretary of defense under President George W. Bush.

Rumsfeld was taking questions from reporters at a 2002 press conference, in the early days of the Iraq War, when he said: “As we know, there are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say, we know there are some things we do not know.”

And that’s when things got deep, with Rumsfeld explaining, “There are also unknown unknowns—the ones we don’t know we don’t know.”

Rumsfeld was roundly derided at the time for spouting nonsense, but over the years, policy nerds have come around to quoting it regularly.

That’s because it’s not as obvious as it sounds, since people often fail to ask the important question at its core: how can anyone make an accurate prediction when they don’t even know what questions they should be asking about the future in the first place?

The fact this somewhat profound sentiment came from someone evading a tough question about

an unpopular war is irrelevant.

Rumsfeld’s lesson was that sometimes we forget how little we truly comprehend about the future that we think we’re planning for.

The notion seems especially relevant to local heated public meetings, where most everyone in the room already has their mind already made up about the best solution to any given problem.

Here in Santa Cruz County, the Regional Transportation Commission (RTC) has plans to build a bike and pedestrian path along the county’s coastal rail corridor. Staffers and consultants are currently studying the possibility of introducing passenger rail service on the >12

SANTACRUZ.COM | GOODTIMES.SC | JUNE 20-26, 2018

Through the swirling dust of a refugee camp in Eastern Lebanon, two girls wearing school uniforms catch Tony Hoffman’s eye. The child psychologist and UCSC lecturer approaches the high-school-age girls and begins asking about how they first arrived at the camp and what their lives were like before.

Having spent more than a year in the camp, both girls know the safest routes to school.

They’ve become friends since fleeing Syria with their families. The older girl, who sports tennis shoes and Western-style bangles, was studying computer science before the Syrian Civil War broke out. The other girl—who’s wearing artfully done makeup, pretty universal in Syria and in the camps—was studying literature.

Today, they are students in a school run by a non-governmental organization and funded

by Malala Yousafzai, the youngest person ever to win the Nobel Peace Prize. This area, Bekaa Valley, contains the region’s highest density of vulnerable Syrian refugees, Hoffman says, and it’s six miles from the Syrian border.

The girls are from different parts of Syria, Aleppo and Damascus, but their stories are eerily—and heartbreakingly—similar. They are among the half of all Syrians who’ve been driven from their homes by bombs, siege, starvation, chemical attacks, and domicide, which is the widespread destruction of people’s homes, and are fueling the largest refugee crisis since World War II. Both girls just want to go home, but have no homes to return to.

“We have nowhere to go, and we cannot stay here. We cannot even call the dirt under our feet our own,” they tell Hoffman. An estimated 100 Syrians flee the country every hour, Hoffman says, and entire communities will have nothing but rubble to return to once the war is over.

Hoffman says war should, first and foremost, be seen as an attack on children.

“Children are more vulnerable to injury,” says Hoffman, who’s retiring from UCSC, having taught his final class at the university this past spring. “They are more vulnerable to disease and starvation. In war, children always lose.”

The conflict—which began seven years ago as the Arab Spring was well underway—has Syria in tatters. While watching the situation worsen on his trips to Lebanon, >14

NEWS TIE GAME <11 tracks, along with other options.

Citing concerns about cost, ridership and overall feasibility, activists from both Greenway and Trail Now have suggested the RTC instead remove the tracks and use the corridor for an extra-wide trail.

Going forward it’s, at this point, still relatively unclear how either plan will really look or would get funded, much less what shape California’s transportation future will take decades from now.

MOVING PARTS The corridor’s future came into a little more focus on June 14, when the RTC tied the knot with Progressive Rail, voting 8-4 to ink a 10-year agreement with the freight operator in a hotly contested meeting. Reflecting on last week’s vote, Greenway Executive Director Gail McNulty, who opposed the draft agreement, says she’s “very worried” and believes the contract will tie up the county’s transportation options over the next decade. McNulty says her group needs to regroup before deciding on its next steps, although she says Greenway’s supporters are more motivated than ever.

Four commissioners voted against the agreement—including Capitola City Councilmember

Jacques Bertrand and Scotts Valley City Councilmember Randy Johnson, along with Virginia Johnson and Patrick Mulhearn, alternates for county supervisors Bruce McPherson and Zach Friend, respectively.

Progressive Rail’s supporters— most of whom also support passenger service—have high hopes for the freight operator.

With previous operator Iowa Pacific in violation of its contract, Watsonville-area shippers had been unable to send anything out on the local line, which is clogged with empty rail cars.

Supervisor Ryan Coonerty and county counsel both stressed that the RTC will get to make its decision on passenger service after the Unified Corridor Study (UCS) gets released, evaluating all options for the corridor.

Mulhearn, though, argued that the RTC’s path out of the agreement isn’t particularly clear.

“This contract is, in many ways, word for word, the Iowa Pacific contract,” Mulhearn said. “I realize now that the talking point is, ‘Well, we didn’t have a bad contract.

We had a bad operator.’ Yeah, we had a bad operator, but we had no levers in our contract to remove that operator … I can’t support a contract that further disadvantages

our decision makers.”

Mulhearn brought up other proposals to address the needs of the county’s major freight shippers in the coming months.

But before the RTC voted to approve the contract, those South County businesses asked for immediate relief and help getting their goods moving.

Bob Perlage, spokesperson for Big Creek Lumber, said that Big Creek bought property in Watsonville nearly 50 years ago on the rail line.

His employer, he added, could lose half a million dollars a year if it had to ship all of its lumber by truck, which is less efficient than hauling by train, and therefore pricier.

Executives from two local cold storage businesses—Del Mar Foods and Lineage Logistics, each based in Watsonville—both said they process about 100,000,000 pounds of fruits and vegetables a year, and they’re heading into the busy season. They said switching to truck shipments would hurt their bottom lines, because their rates would go up.

P.J. Mecozzi, Del Mar’s president, tells GT that without a new freight rail agreement, his customers might have decided to look elsewhere.

“The rail’s an important asset to us here, and it has been for a long time,” he says. >15

NEWS BRIEFS RESULTING IN Jimmy Dutra looks to be headed for a run-off against County Supervisor Greg Caput in District 4.

According to election results released on Friday, June 12, Dutra sits at 27 percent of the vote, not far behind Caput, who’s at 34 percent. Those results have held steady over the past week and a half. So Felipe Hernandez, who’s currently at 22 percent, may be outside of striking distance.

Most county voters cast their ballots by mail according

to the county’s election website.

In the race for judge, Syda Cogliati finished comfortably ahead of Zach Schwarzbach, by a margin of more than 10 percentage points.

Each of Santa Cruz’s three city measures, including the quarter-cent sales tax, passed in a landslide. All three local school measures passed handily as well.

And according to the returns so far, more than half of Santa Cruz County voted for Democrat Lt. Gov. Gavin Newsom, while

Antonio Villaraigosa finished behind Republican businessman John Cox. Cox trounced Villaraigosa statewide convincingly, after the Democratic former Los Angeles mayor slipped in the polls during the month before the June primary.

Those gubernatorial results are essentially just what Republicans had been hoping for, and presumably the reason that President Donald Trump endorsed Cox via Twitter in the lead-up to the primary. The mere fact that conservatives

have a candidate for governor should drive Republican voters to the polls come November and increase their odds of holding onto control of Congress.

Beyond that, the conventional wisdom says that Cox doesn’t have a shot in hell at winning in November against Newsom, a popular Democrat.

Then again, the conventional wisdom also told us this was a two-man race between Newsom and Villaraigosa. Is it just me, or is it getting hot in here? JACOB PIERCE

TRAUMATIC SHIFT <11

where one out of every four people is a Syrian refugee, Hoffman has felt powerless to stop it.

As a developmental psychologist, Hoffman is fascinated with how children survive extreme circumstances. Over the past five years, he has been leading a double life, splitting his time between professorial duties at UCSC and the American University in Beirut, where he is running AUB’s psychosocial services for refugee children. He teaches a course on war-affected children at each university.

EMERGENCY EXIT A half a world away, Hoffman’s spacious office on the third floor of the UCSC Social Sciences 2 building feels cramped. Ornately carved wooden masks and dozens of framed pictures of himself with child refugees from brutal conflicts around the world cover every inch of the cream-colored walls.

According to a 2017 poll conducted by CNN/ ORC, more than half of Americans favored allowing refugees from Syria to seek asylum in the United States, but only 25 percent were strongly in favor. Hoffman hopes to help shape the way his fellow Americans understand the situation.

“I’m reviving the concept of deep homelessness in my writing and lectures,” he says, “so people can understand the

psychology of these refugees.”

Refugees are scattering in four directions— south to Jordan, east to Iraq, west to Lebanon, north into Turkey, and, of course, toward Europe, which is the route that’s gotten the most attention. But Hoffman explains that the refugee flow into Europe has largely stopped by now.

“Host countries don’t have the means to repatriate them and feed them and they want them to go home,” he says. “But these refugees have no home to go to.”

ORDER PATROL Last year, an executive order signed by Donald Trump effectively closed the United States’ borders to any and all Syrian refugees. European governments and their citizens are fighting against the influx of refugees as well, with physical walls, laws and regulations. In many European countries, violence against migrants is common.

Hoffman says Syrian refugees are often seen as “freeloaders taking away local jobs, outsiders, cowards, and criminals. The negative stereotypes we hear in the United States about migrants are just as prevalent in other parts of the world.”

Westerners have focused on the refugee crisis in Europe, rather than on the 80 percent of refugees remaining in Turkey, Lebanon and Jordan, Hoffman says. “Our Islamophobia plays a role in not addressing the issue where

it’s at its worst,” Hoffman explains.

In September of 2015, the Kurdi family of Syria paid smugglers $5,860 for four spaces on a small inflatable boat in the hopes of reaching “safety” in Europe. The five-meter-long boat carrying the Kurdis and eight others capsized just five minutes after pushing off Bodrum in Turkey. Their boat carried no life jackets and the entire Syrian family drowned, except for the father.

When the salt-caked body of 3-yearold Alan Kurdi—still wearing shoes and a red rocket ship T-shirt—washed ashore from the Mediterranean Sea, it made international headlines. In Syria, it was a cautionary tale.

“There’s a saying in Syria now,” Hoffman tells me. “‘The land isn’t safe and the sea isn’t safe. We have nowhere to go.’”

Over the past few years, much of the attention Syria has gotten has been directed at dictator Bashar al-Assad and his use of chemical weapons. Hoffman, who’s seen the effects firsthand, however, reports that the weapons are being used by most major groups in the region, not just Assad.

Outside of Syria, Hoffman says the situation in Lebanon is as complicated as it is anywhere, given the dramatic change in demographics.

“People are cordial and kind and are respectful,” he says, “because there is so much tension.

They don’t want to step on anyone’s toes.”

When it comes to passenger service, the issues aren’t black and white for everyone.

The environmental nonprofit Ecology Action has generally supported RTC’s approach. However, Piet Canin, the group’s vice president of transportation, says Ecology Action isn’t necessarily married to the idea of a train, but rather that the organization has taken the position of not giving up on the idea of transit on the corridor.

“We’re agnostic as to what type of transit might be on the corridor,” Canin says, “but we think that preserving the tracks is important to fully investigate rail transit as an option.”

The most obvious non-rail transit option for the corridor would be bus rapid transit, alongside a bike/pedestrian path—something consultants have been looking at as part of the UCS. That could represent something of a middle ground, and it’s something Ron Goodman, former director of People Power (which is now called Bike Santa Cruz County), has been advocating for. Both Mark Mesiti-Miller, chair of Friends of the Rail and Trail, and some Greenway boardmembers have expressed tepid openness to me about that idea in recent months—even if it wouldn’t be their first choice.

Canin does note, however, that a train can accommodate far more bikes than a bus can.

There are other ideas floating around, too. Brett Garrett of the Campaign for Sustainable Transportation has been calling for personal rapid transit (PRT), an idea that has come up periodically in Santa Cruz for decades. Although PRT systems come in various forms, some resemble the Sky Glider bucket ride at the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk more than they do a traditional transportation network.

Others look more like a monorail with miniature one-car trains.

Garrett says these pod cars and the rail corridor would be a perfect match for one another, though he realizes that many people have a hard time thinking about it with a straight face.

“But at the same time, in most

cases, it means people haven’t taken a second look at it,” he says. “If you’ve never heard of the concept, you have to look at it and think about it. It’s forcing us to change the way we think about public transit. Thirty years ago, when people told us we’d all have little phones in our pockets, we’d think they were crazy, but here we are. We know all the basic components. Why not build it?”

Garrett, who’s been studying PRT for years, believes it would have lower carbon emissions and operating costs than other kinds of transit.

RTC Chair John Leopold is not yet ready to hitch a ride on the pod car dream.

“I haven’t studied it enough to say ‘no way,’” he says, “but I haven’t seen anything that would make me go toward wanting pod cars.”

In the meantime, the next few months make for something of a waiting game, while everyone awaits the UCS and the next step in the public process. There’s more than a small chance that the corridor study will have more than enough conflicting information for everyone to cherry pick their favorite parts to reinforce their own point of view.

I’m reminded of the city of Santa Cruz’s wide-ranging 2003 Master Transportation Study.

Over the years, I’ve heard active transportation activists and city leaders from totally different parts of the political spectrum tell me the exact same thing about it: “It’s like the Bible. People read into it whatever they want to.”

Here’s hoping the UCS doesn’t end up the same way. Leopold says it matters less how the document is written, and more how the report gets read and interpreted—because if people want to cherry-pick data from a long-winded document, he says, they will.

“It falls into the ‘no-win’ category.

The study’s going to use data and make some points,” says Leopold. “And there’s going to be recommendations from staff, but people will find the part of the report that most validates their point of view. The UCS isn’t going to be a magical document that gives all kinds of answers. It’s going to be open to interpretation. That’s pretty normal.”

STILL MAKING WAVES The most important legacy of Jack O’Neill—the O’Neill Sea Odyssey ocean stewardship program which gives kids their first exposure to the ocean—celebrates its 100,000th student this weekend

BY GEOFFREY DUNN

JUNE 20-26, 2018 | GOODTIMES.SC | SANTACRUZ.COM

cold grey wall of fog blankets Santa Cruz on a Friday morning in mid-June. From a distant perch above the Santa Cruz Yacht Harbor, one can see a meandering line of children in dark green T-shirts winding their way down the eastern rim of the harbor, slowly but ever-so-surely making their way to a destination near the beach.

The students—participating in the Nueva Vista Community Resource program in Beach Flats—are here for the marine stewardship program hosted by the O’Neill Sea Odyssey (OSO), and while they may not know it quite yet, they are marching toward history. Sometime this summer— the date is uncertain, but likely in September—the widely heralded nonprofit will officially count its 100,000th participant in the organization’s 22-year operation.

In the building adjacent to the Crow’s Nest restaurant, a trio of highly trained ocean stewards— OSO Education Coordinator Laura Walker, and instructors Lauren Hanneman and Joey Rodrigues— gather the students together, secure life jackets on them, and

prepare them for an afternoon at sea. At first it’s a bit like herding young kittens (or as Rodrigues jokes, “young squirrels”); their energy is kinetic and unfocused.

But in a matter of minutes, they are molded into shape and ready for their launch aboard the imposing 65-foot Team O’Neill catamaran.

I have been a passenger on various craft in Monterey Bay for the better part of six decades, and much to my surprise, I still get a rush of pleasure and excitement going out to sea. The views from the catamaran are muted on this foggy day—much like the work of American Tonalist painters in the late 19th century—and the panorama quickly captures a view from Lighthouse Point to Pleasure Point, with the Santa Cruz Mountains providing a dark backdrop in the distance. If any place feels like home to me, this does.

On their two-hour journey into the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary, the students will encounter lessons in marine biology, environmental protection, and the basics of navigation. The instructors make each educational

platform a hands-on experience.

The kids are enthralled.

Shortly after leaving the harbor, and just a few hundred yards off Black Point, we encounter more than a dozen sea otters (quite nearly extinct when I was the age of the children on the boat), and then a host of various sea birds gracefully glide by—murres and egrets and cormorants and pelicans—and it’s different seeing them from the ocean’s surface.

The magic and various glories of the maritime universe take on new meaning when you are in the middle of them.

One critical piece of information that OSO teaches its participants is about “non-pointsource” pollution—road runoff (oil, gasoline, etc.), animal feces, plastic bags, Styrofoam cups, cigarette butts ad infinitum that wind up in the Monterey Bay Sanctuary through storm drains, rivers and creeks. No matter where the kids are coming from— and many come from Santa Clara County—they realize they can have an impact on protecting the oceans from outside threats.

Let me acknowledge that, much to my surprise, this old salt

learned a lot of new things about marine life during the sail. This was my first time on one of the Sea Odyssey excursions in several years, and at each stage of the journey I learned something new—about various types of plankton, about current threats to the marine environment (the amount of plastics in the ocean is staggering) and even the common murre, which, as instructor Hanneman explained to me, dives to depths of nearly 100 fathoms (600 feet)! It was an absolutely inspiring experience.

You could see by the excitement on the faces of the kids, that the two-to-three hour experience would make an indelible mark on their lives. As one young student said to me when we spotted our first sea otter, “This is so cool. I wish that I could take my entire family out here.

They won’t believe it!”

Indeed, for many of the students—and for most students who participate in the program— their voyage on Team O’Neill marks

their very first time on the ocean.

Hanneman, a 13-year veteran of the OSO program, wrote her master’s thesis specifically about the longterm impacts of the program by tracking participants into middle and high school. Fully 75 percent of students in Hanneman’s study manifested long-term retention of materials taught to them in the OSO program. By the time they arrive back on shore, the students become lifelong warriors on behalf of ocean stewardship. There’s hope.

You might trip or bump into something like a street sign or wall—not cool.

Even worse, looking at your phone instead of checking for traffic can lead to a serious collision. So can headphones that drown out the sound of approaching vehicles.

visionary of the Sea Odyssey experience, then the man at the tiller of the program for the past two decades has been its executive director, Dan Haifley.

Raised in the suburbs of Orange County, in Rossmoor, near Seal Beach, Haifley credits his father, a retired Sea Scout, with encouraging his lifelong love affair with the sea. “He told me stories of his sixmonth Pacific trip when he was a teenager, and it sort of captured my imagination,” Haifley says. And, as a teenager, Haifley also began paying attention to offshore oil drilling operations just north of him, near Long Beach.

A steady and energetic presence in Santa Cruz since he arrived here in 1977 as a student at UCSC, where he majored in economics, Haifley has long been at the center of the community’s political zeitgeist. He first cut his chops at the activist organization People for a Nuclear Free Future, working with would-be Santa Cruz mayors Jane Weed and the late Scott Kennedy.

In 1986, Haifley was hired to run the Oil Information Program of Save Our Shores (SOS), at a time during the Reagan presidency when the entire coast of California appeared to be up for grabs to the highest bidder. The year before, voters in the City of Santa Cruz had passed an ordinance by 82 percent which basically put a stop to oil drilling locally by requiring a vote of the people for any changes in zoning to accommodate onshore facilities for offshore operations.

At Save Our Shores, Haifley was essentially hired to replicate the initiative up and down California.

Even with the threat of lawsuits from oil companies looming over

his efforts, he got more than two dozen of them passed.

Most significantly, Haifley was viewed as the go-to guy on the ground for delivering and stewarding ocean protection legislation in California. In the early 1990s, Haifley used his perch at SOS to work closely with thencongressman Leon Panetta and the Center for Marine Conservation (now the Ocean Conservancy) to form an environmental coalition that pushed for the largest possible boundary for the Monterey Bay Marine Sanctuary—the largest in the United States. The legislation was passed by Congress at Panetta’s behest in September of 1992. Haifley, as Panetta once said to me, was the “field lieutenant” of that effort.

Shortly thereafter, at an SOS event celebrating the Sanctuary, O’Neill (who had become strongly supportive of SOS and environmental protections for the oceans) told Haifley that he was “interested in using his 65-foot sailing catamaran to get students on the water to learn about the ocean.”

From that initial discussion, O’Neill Sea Odyssey was born.

The rest, as they say, is history.

OSO offered its first classes in December of 1996; it incorporated as a nonprofit in 1997, and by May of 1999, Haifley had been hired as executive director, where he’s been at the helm ever since. This past April, he announced his retirement at the end of the year.

In advance of an all-encompassing event this coming weekend celebrating OSO’s 100,000th student, to be held at Cowell Beach, I interviewed Haifley—married to his wife Rebecca, a retired teacher with the Pajaro Valley School District,

STILL MAKING WAVES

There is a Better Way

<20 and the father of two children, Aaron and Julia—about his thoughts on the program he helped create, his retirement and the state of the oceans today.

We’ve discussed this before, and correct me if I’m wrong, but I knew Jack [O’Neill] since I was a kid, and I felt like Jack had something of a rebirth around the OSO program.

When I talked to him about it, he was always very excited. It seemed to add new meaning to his life.

DAN HAIFLEY: Yes. He had established his company as a leader in the surf industry, and in the 1980s began to think about how the ocean could be protected. He knew instinctively that the sea was comprised of an interwoven matrix of life. The engineer in him figured out how that system operated, and the promoter in him understood that if students learned about that system at a young age, they would become its life-long protectors.

People forget about his fascination with science and engineering.

Right. From 1988 until his death, I had countless conversations with him about the ocean's systems. For example, he was interested in the North Atlantic current—which is key to moving warm water from the tropics northward, and is a reason that Europe has a moderate climate— and its role in mitigating the effects of climate change. He was interested in what was happening with ocean acidification, which is an outcome of the ocean absorbing excess carbon from the atmosphere.

He was a ‘waterman’ in the purest sense of the word.

Jack O’Neill always tinkered with wetsuit designs and how swells work along the coast, and he applied that same analytical mindset to ocean health. His legacy in promoting ocean awareness and health started with his own curiosity and drive to make things better. He took it to the next step by deploying his boat and the building at the harbor, and some

money to get O’Neill Sea Odyssey started.

I didn’t realize that.

Yeah, he and Tim O’Neill gathered a team that included Jack McLaughlin, Theresa Coyle, Jim Holm, Carl Keehn, and members of Save Our Shores to develop a program. I was hired in 1999, and so was Laura Walker. Today she runs the program, working with over 200 teachers a year, scheduling classes, community service projects and providing scholarships.

Jack seemed to love what was going on with the program.

Jack moved his family to Santa Cruz in the late 1950s to building a familyoriented market for surfing. That naturally led to his passion and drive to protect the ocean. The wetsuit business and O’Neill Sea Odyssey were two sides of the same coin for him. He believed that getting people in the water bred familiarity with it, which lead to a desire to protect it.

What’s the biggest impact of your program on the kids?

Most of the students who participate in our program have never been on the ocean. In fact, most people in the world have never been on the ocean.

Getting out onto the ocean to explore its intricacies and learn to protect it is not a prerequisite to a life of stewardship, but it surely helps.

O’Neill Sea Odyssey instructors use hands-on learning, which is a very effective complement to book-based and lecture-driven learning. People learn visually and kinetically, as well as by listening.

I see it as an immersion in science and stewardship using the ocean field trip, classroom curriculum, and community service. Being a free program allows us to serve students regardless of background. You never know where the next Rachel Carson will come from.

What do you see as the biggest challenge facing the oceans today?

Plastic pollution and climate change, which changes the water’s pH, are

STILL MAKING WAVES the two biggest stressors on the ocean today—though there are many others. When I go out and promote O’Neill Sea Odyssey in the community, I am asked about what the biggest threat to the ocean is, and I say that everything we do in our everyday lives such as tossing a cigarette butt on the ground, or getting into our cars, affects everything on Earth, including the ocean.

What does the 100,000th student mean to you?

We are now at 99,236 students, and at the rate of 25 students per class, we will likely serve our 100,000th student in September, if not before.

I know it’s just a number, but it represents our team’s skill, which causes those teachers to keep bringing students to us. The idea of a campaign to count down to 100,000 was the brainchild of Adam Steckley, our Operations Coordinator. It enables us to use social media to tell the stories of our instructors, our students, and their experiences.

So ‘retiring’ in the Haifley sense.

[Laughter] OK …

Any final thoughts?

I am grateful to everyone who makes O’Neill Sea Odyssey work, every day.

They are true ocean heroes.

Dan, I’ve known you for 40 years and you’ve always walked with a steady purpose. It’s hard to imagine you are really retiring.

I am really retiring. My wife has been retired for a few years now, and when I turned 60, I decided it was time to pass the baton. My job has been to promote the program, raise funds and implement the board’s direction, and a new person will be able to do that with new energy. I will work in the garden, go kayaking, and volunteer. I am still on the Monterey Bay Sanctuary Advisory Council and I just joined the Board of the new Monterey Bay Chapter for the National Marine Sanctuary Foundation.

I’m sitting with five others around a fire, waiting to be called to enter lille æske’s new “Spektrum” installation. Everyone receives a numbered card, indicating what

order they will be called in, and enters individually. Illuminated by a reddish hue, the exhibit starts with a warm and welcoming beginning, but the rabbit hole behind the door is enough to make anyone curious— or in my case, slightly anxious.

ghostly gesture between the sheeted rooms. The uneasiness of it all turns to comfort by the third room, where Los Angeles-based artist Black Mare waits to put on a show just for me. It’s delightfully gothic and magical—who knew I’d find solace in a masked woman wearing a kimono? She taps a large horn on her staff, hums and gives me a red rose wrapped in parchment before sending me on my merry way. I’m so glad that I’m not on drugs.

A truly sensory experience, “Spektrum” isn’t for the faint of heart, but rest assured it’s worth every second for those who have an open and curious mind. The rooms build on each other, and just when it seems like things couldn’t get any stranger, the fog machine, violet lights and canopied four-poster bed appear. From the rooms to the performances and art pieces, everything is intentional in this small space, and it’s a true wonder in itself.

Spektrum challenges what art looks and feels like. It’s awkward, cohesive and transformative at the same time, a range of emotion and otherworldly experiences all tucked away in a little wooden box in the woods.

Twine is spiderwebbed around the ceiling and there’s nowhere to go but to a rickety kitchen table. My masked friend and I sit silently together, and with clammy hands I open a letter sitting in front of me and try not to look him in the eyes.

It reads: “Light of the World, isn’t it funny the way some things seem to choose you as much as you choose them? For example, why are you here right now? Do you even know, yourself? (Do you even know yourself?) Light of the World. There are so many things I want to tell you and of course there is no time. There is never any time.”

The masked man stands up and walks over to the kitchen counter, and I know I am going to die. But instead I’m led to the next room— five of which have somehow been fit into the tiny venue, each based on a different hue in the color spectrum (hence the name). Only 12 people are allowed in each night, given the individuality and personalization of it all, and the artist changes every weekend. There are several interesting characters along the way, some real and some fictional, all of them unique. It’s a journey through color and light, but also a journey into consciousness and awareness.

Leading me from room to room are silent masked hosts, who give a

Smart ‘Guys’ JUNE 20-26, 2018 | GOODTIMES.SC | SANTACRUZ.COM

Amy Rigby returns to form for ‘Old Guys,’ her first solo album in 13 years BY AARON CARNES

26

H

ave you ever thought about what Philip Roth was thinking when Bob Dylan won the Nobel Peace Prize? Singer-songwriter Amy Rigby has. She even wrote a song about it, imagining the email that Roth would fire off to Dylan. (“When you’re standing in the spotlight where you’ve always been/I’ll be alone with the pen, alone with the pen.”)

“I kind of felt like probably a lot of us feel about Bob Dylan—not angry at him, but we will never be him, to have the depths of his talent,” Rigby says. “I felt like even Philip Roth would have to shake his head and say, ‘For all the hard work I’ve done, for all the body of work I’ve created, I just can’t touch

that guy.’ He just looms so large.”

The song opens Rigby’s new album Old Guys, her first solo record in 13 years. It’s a welcome return for Rigby. The singer-songwriter was an indie darling in the ’90s, particularly with her solo debut in 1996, Diary of a Mod Housewife. She’s collaborated on several records with husband Wreckless Eric. The last record they did together was 2012’s A Working Museum.

Old Guys sees her confronting age, death and loss head on, particularly on the title track, which along with “Bob,” were two early songs she wrote and helped her establish the lens for the record.

“Over the last 10 years, I was

starting to lose friends—not just musical heroes, but people that I worked with and were really important to my musical life,” Rigby says. “I didn’t want it to sound mopey and sad, but more of a gratitude sort of thing, like a celebration, and have a bit of sadness.”

This vibe carries through all of the record. Much of the lyrics have a strong sad bent, yet are performed behind a mostly upbeat fuzzy rock sound. She delivers the words with her weathered voice, which hides the depth of emotion to a certain extent.

The track “Playing Pittsburgh” is a seemingly sad song about her perpetual disappointment of playing in that city, which she

grew up in and left at age 16. She always feels like homecomings are underwhelming, and the shows for whatever reason are not that great. Yet the music for this song is peppered with a pride in Pittsburgh you might not expect from someone expressing this level of sadness. (“I’m playing Pittsburgh tonight/I got the hometown blues.”)

“Something about the music made it feel like Pittsburgh in a positive way,” Rigby says.

What it creates is an album that is highly reflective without being soaked in sentimentality, nostalgia or bitterness. Her earlier work was known more for its emotional rawness. Her new album is subtler.

This is something Rigby attributes to working with her husband for so long, and also to living in France some years back and getting used to expressing herself to an audience that didn’t speak English.

“I was just starting to feel the expression that comes out of playing notes and volume and sound,” Rigby says. “I was falling in love with the guitar. In the past I saw it more as a tool I needed to write songs. It was liberating.”

It was this more impressionistic approach that moved the record into a new direction. On the surface, the record seems confessional, and it times that’s a major element, but Rigby approached the songs—even the ones intimately about herself—as an abstract project of projecting images into the words.

Even in that opening track, where Roth fires off at Dylan, there’s an odd ending where after Roth speaks his mind to Dylan, Rigby acknowledges the contradiction of Dylan both being an epic person that exists in a higher plane than the rest of us, and a symbol for all of us. She expresses this complex idea by repeating “Spartacus” as the song concludes.

“Spartacus is the slave that represents all the slaves. It wasn’t about him. He was doing it for everybody,” Rigby says. “That was just so perfect to me. The word sounded good, but what it meant was even more what I wanted it to mean.”

Amy Rigby plays at 2 p.m. on Sunday, June 24 at Michael’s on Main, 2591 Main St., Soquel. $15. 479-9777.

SATURDAY 6/23 INTRODUCTION TO BEEKEEPING In case you haven’t heard, bees are dying. In the last few years, colonies of bees have been significantly impacted by pesticide use, monoculture and suburban farming. If the trend continues, it will mean a lot less honey and fruit (that includes wine, by the way). Protecting the bees is critical for the future of our global ecosystem, and starting a beehive is easy, if you have the right guidance. Join UC Master Gardener Randy Fox in a beginners beekeeping class. He will talk about the lives of honey bees, discuss the everyday dynamics inside a beehive, and how to set up a beehive.

MUSIC CALENDAR

LOVE YOUR

LOCAL BAND PAPIBA AND FRIENDS

Anyone in town interested in traditional Brazilian dance music has certainly checked out SambaDá, the sevenpiece local band that does it amazingly well. It was founded by Papiba Godinho two decades ago, just a couple of years after he moved here from Brazil.

But Godinho has another project he started a few years ago called Papiba and Friends with bassist Etienne Franc and drummer Gary Kehoe, which certainly has Brazilian elements, but veers from the traditional.

JUNE 20-26, 2018 | GOODTIMES.SC | SANTACRUZ.COM

“There is more space for the experimental elements of the music.

We do a lot more blending of R&B, rock, blues and Northern Americana influences. I think this makes Brazilian music more accessible to our American audiences and opens them to exploring more deeply,” Godinho says.

36

The group started as Godinho’s answer to gig requests that were more intimate. What he found was that he and his smaller group could jam out on songs more, build funky grooves and do pretty much whatever they want. Oddly, this side project has helped SambaDá gain an even larger audience in town.

“People come to see us, and they see a little bit of the drumming and the Portuguese and they don’t know what it is,” says Godinho. “I say, ‘Oh, it’s Brazilian music, we also have a different project called SambaDá.”

WEDNESDAY 6/20 LATIN-FUNK

BROWNOUT When Public Enemy released Fear of a Black Planet in 1990, it was the perfect statement for the Reagan/Bush era of conservatism, racism and the “war on drugs.” Now in the Trump era, Austin Latin ensemble Brownout has appropriately released Fear of a Brown Planet. It’s a cover (of sorts) of Public Enemy’s classic record, but performed as an instrumental live funk band. It works as a subtle protest record, as there are no lyrics, just the knowledge as you listen that a group of Texas Latinos (formerly Grupo Fantasma) are kicking out some potent dance music that will remind you of one of the greatest protest albums ever created. AC INFO: 8:30 p.m. Moe’s Alley, 1535 Commercial Way, Santa Cruz. $12/adv, $15/door. 479-1854.

HIP-HOP

RICH HOMIE QUAN Rich Homie Quan has performed, collaborated and toured with a slew of who’s who in the hip-hop world, from newcomers like Young Thug and

YG to established heavyweights like 2Chainz. Yet, a bad contract ensured Quan couldn’t release any new music between 2015 and 2017. But it was more than enough time for him to work on his debut full-length, Rich as in Spirit, which dropped this past March. MAT WEIR INFO: 9 p.m. Catalyst, 1011 Pacific Ave., Santa Cruz. $20/door, $60/VIP. 429-4135.

FUSION

JEREMY KITTEL TRIO Years ago, I asked a classically trained musician friend what the difference between a fiddle and a violin was. His response was, “It’s all how you play it.” Jeremy Kittel is described as a renowned American fiddler and violinist, which implies that he’s comfortable with different styles, techniques and sounds. The one-time member of the Turtle Island Quartet, Kittel draws from jazz, Celtic, electronica, rock, traditional roots, classical and more.

His collaborators include a diverse roster of artists from My Morning Jacket to Yo-Yo Ma, Bela Fleck and Abigail Washburn. For Kittel’s Santa Cruz appearance, he performs with

mandolinist Josh Pinkham, who was dubbed “the future of the mandolin”

by Mandolin Magazine, and guitarist Quinn Bachand. CJ INFO: 7:30 p.m. Michael’s on Main, 2591 Main St., Soquel. $18/adv, $20/door. 479-9777.

FRIDAY 6/22 AMERICANA

HARMED BROTHERS For the better part of a decade, the Harmed Brothers have been a huge part of the ever-evolving Northwest Americana sound: Part traditional folk, part laid-back hippie vibes, lots of sweet harmonies. Last year’s self-titled full-length saw the group expand in size and in its sound into a more layered indie-folk ensemble.

The group remains as personal and heartfelt as ever, but gives the music a deeper musicality, more harmonies and intricate guitar work underlining these songs, which are American roots music at their core. They’ve added so much beauty to their music, it’s hard to put it down. AC INFO: 9 p.m. Crepe Place, 1134 Soquel Ave., Santa Cruz. $10/adv, $12/door. 429-6994.

FAREED HAQUE & HIS FUNK BROS There aren’t a lot of true guitar legends among us now. Fareed Haque’s style is informed by jazz, Latin, and classic guitar, and while he isn’t as flashy as the dudes that normally wear the “guitar god” emblem, his work is at least as if not more impressive. He played with Sting for a while and then formed Garaj Mahal, a jazz-fusion jam band. His new band he’s bringing to town, Fareed Haque & His Funk Brothers, is still a project of diverse influences and impressive fusion elements. Not to worry funk lovers, there is plenty of that too in

JAZZ

ERIC REVIS If Kuumbwa’s chairs came equipped with seatbelts, this concert would start with a reminder to buckle up. Eric Revis has held down the bass chair in Branford Marsalis’s trio and quartet for some two decades, but he’s always maintained a separate musical identity on jazz’s wild and wooly experimental edge. Now he’s touring with a quartet bristling with musical explorers who are prolific bandleaders themselves.

Saxophonist and MacArthur “Genius” Fellow Ken Vandermark has been at the center of the Windy City’s improv scene for 30 years, and Philly drummer Chad Taylor came up in Chicago, where he made a name for himself playing with AACM giants like saxophonist Fred Anderson and bassist Malachi Favors.

Rounding out the quartet is pianist Kris Davis, a thoughtful and immensely resourceful improviser. ANDREW GILBERT INFO: 7 p.m. Kuumbwa Jazz, 320-2 Cedar St., Santa Cruz. $26.25/adv, $31.50/door. 427-2227.

The first thing that comes to mind when I think of Shawn Colvin is “Riding Shotgun Down the Avalanche.” The song is one of those era-defining tunes for me that brings to mind a specific place and time—namely, riding around with my sister, singing our hearts out. It’s Colvin’s most well-known song, but if that’s all you know of the singer-songwriter, dig deeper. Colvin is a master songsmith who is fearless when it comes to sharing glimpses into her perspective and emotions. She also possesses a smart sense of humor and sarcasm that balances the hyper-personal nature of her lyrics. CJ

pop archives. Singer-songwriter Mira Gota takes the country/rock angle and throws in pop sensibilities for good measure. Hailing from Northern California, Gota is now based in Nashville, where her fun and catchy sound fits nicely into the Music City scene.

If radio-friendly pop/country is your thing, put Gota on your radar. CJ

The son of an opera singer, Bob Schneider was born in Michigan and raised in Germany. Not quite the usual background of an Americana artist, but an Americana artist he is.

A favorite among Austin roots fans, Schneider has raked in dozens of local awards and built a loyal fan base across Texas and beyond. Known for his personal approach to songwriting and his monthly residency that stretches back two decades at Austin’s Saxon Pub, Schneider may soon be one of your favorite roots artists. On July 13, he brings his band to Moe’s Alley. CJ

FILM

WE GOT THE ‘BEAT’ Kiersey Clemons and Nick Offerman in ‘Hearts Beat Loud.’

Vital Signs JUNE 20-26, 2018 | GOODTIMES.SC | SANTACRUZ.COM

Engaging music, characters, energize dad-daughter dynamic of ‘Hearts Beat Loud’ BY LISA JENSEN

42

I

f your idea of parents and offspring playing music together begins and ends with The Partridge Family, you may change your tune when you see Hearts Beat Loud. In Brett Haley’s engaging, gently calibrated story, a middle-aged father and his teenage daughter bond over a shared love of songwriting and playing music together. It’s a simple scenario brought to life by nuanced performances and a light and easy directorial touch.

Haley is becoming renowned for his small, indie films (I’ll See You in My Dreams; The Hero) populated by life-sized characters who look and act like, you know, actual people.

There’s nothing tricky about his presentation; his unassuming movies earn our affection with their humor and honesty. Hearts Beat Loud touches on serious themes— financial hardship, broken dreams, grief and loss—but the movie’s attitude is refreshingly buoyant.

In the Red Hook district of Brooklyn, Frank Fisher (Nick Offerman) runs an obscure little storefront shop selling the vinyl records he loves. (One of the movie’s pleasures is spotting vintage album covers hung up in plastic sleeves on the walls of Frank’s shop.) His few customers are curiosity-seeking young hipsters who are gentrifying the neighborhood.

An outwardly crusty, bearlike man, with something a little nutty going on behind his eyes that suggests he’s got some scheme or other in mind, Frank used to play guitar in a rock band on the fringes of the club scene.

But he gave it up for the (relative) stability of a shopkeeper when his daughter was born.

Daughter, Sam (vibrant Kiersey Clemons, so noticeable in a small part last year in The Only Living Boy in New York), is off to college in the fall to study pre-med. Business has not been great at the shop—the rent is way past due—and she’s looking for financial security for the future.

No big deal is made of the fact that Sam is mixed-race, but it’s gradually

revealed that her late mother was black and sang with Frank’s band.

Sam has showbiz in her blood from both sides, and while she tries to be the grown-up in the household, she’s vulnerable to her dad’s wheedling when he wants her to take a break and play music with him. Her instrument is the electric keyboard, augmented by her own powerhouse voice. When Frank learns she’s been noodling around with some songs of her own, he buys an electronic musical keypad to augment their sound. The exasperated Sam insists, “We’re not a band!” which Frank adopts as their new band name.

During the course of the summer, they compose songs and record them in Frank’s makeshift home studio. (After he secretly emails one out as a demo, he has an exuberant epiphany at the local coffeeshop when he hears their song playing on Spotify.) Meanwhile, Sam starts to fall in love with Rose (Sasha Lane, from last year’s American Honey), a young woman from the neighborhood with artistic ambitions. Lane and Clemons are easy and likable together, although the part of Rose is underwritten.

But the rest of the supporting cast has better luck. Toni Collette brings shading to the part of Frank’s sympathetic landlady who wants to give him every chance. Blythe Danner (Haley’s muse and star in I’ll See You in My Dreams) has a couple of droll scenes as Frank’s wayward mother. And it’s great to see Ted Danson behind a bar again as the proprietor of Frank’s favorite watering hole, a cheerful stoner who has never quite let go of the ’60s.

The story’s main conflict is set up between Frank’s rock ’n’ roll dream, so long delayed, and the nature of Sam’s future. But Haley’s understated approach suggests that no option is absolute, and enlightened compromise might be the best way forward in this thoughtful, entertaining film.

FILM NEW THIS WEEK

JUNE 20-26, 2018 | GOODTIMES.SC | SANTACRUZ.COM

JURASSIC WORLD: FALLEN KINGDOM It’s a bit ironic that the bad guy in this film is a corrupt businessman who wants to exploit the dinosaurs for terrible purposes. ’Cause, uh, that’s pretty much the story of how this movie even exists, right? When you consider that this franchise has been creatively bankrupt since the awful first Jurassic Park sequel 20 years ago, it’s safe to say that no amount of Jeff Goldblum charmingly not understanding how to speak sentences is going to make this movie bearable. Directed by J.A. Bayona. Starring Chris Pratt, Bryce Dallas Howard and, ah, ah, yes, hmm, Jeff, ah, Goldblum. (PG-13) 128 minutes. (SP)

44

WON’T YOU BE MY NEIGHBOR? It’s incredible how many crazy rumors still swirl around Mr. Rogers, one of the most beloved children’s television figures of all time. Contrary to various urban legends, Fred Rogers didn’t have a secret criminal past, he was never a Navy SEAL, he wasn’t a sniper in Vietnam, and he didn’t flip his young audience the bird. (Yes, I’ve seen the photo, too, but it’s a screen grab from when he was singing “Where is Thumbkin?”)

This documentary cuts through the complicated mythology to try to understand the one-of-a-kind man at the center—a man who changed our culture and our lives for the better. Directed by Morgan Neville. (PG-13) 94 minutes. (SP) CONTINUING EVENT: LET’S TALK ABOUT THE MOVIES Film buffs are invited Wednesday nights at 7 p.m. to downtown Santa Cruz, where each week the group discusses a different current release. For location and discussion topic, go to https:// groups.google.com/group/LTATM.

NOW PLAYING ADRIFT Never look up what the true story of a movie is before you see it! I saw the preview for this couple-stranded-in-the-ocean drama—which heavily pushed

its “based on the incredible true story” angle—and couldn’t help myself. Based on what I read about the real story and what they showed in the preview, I’m pretty positive I know what the movie’s big twist is going to be. Don’t be like me! Stay off of Wikipedia!

Spoiler ignorance is bliss! Directed

by Baltasar Kormakur. Starring Shailene Woodley, Sam Claflin and Grace Palmer. (PG-13) (SP) DEADPOOL 2 If you don’t believe that this Deadpool series is genuinely weirding up Hollywood, take a minute to watch the trailer for this film in which Ryan Reynolds, in full Deadpool costume, plays cult painting icon Bob Ross. No, what I just wrote didn’t make sense, but it happened—which is also the story of Deadpool’s success. The movie was hilarious and ridiculous in all the right ways, and this sequel ups the ante. If you think comic book movies are too cookie cutter, this is the movie for you. Directed by David Leitch. Co-starring Josh Brolin, Morena Baccarin and Leslie Uggams. (R) 119 minutes. (SP) FIRST REFORMED In 1976, Paul Schrader wrote the incendiary script for Taxi Driver, about a troubled loner so disgruntled by the corruption of modern life that he plots a horrifying act of violence. Since then, we can now add the ongoing destruction of the planet to the list of humanity's crimes — an issue Schrader addresses through another troubled protagonist in this powerful tale. Directing his own script, Schrader crafts a slow-building drama of despair, loss, and attempted redemption.

At its center is a conflicted Protestant pastor whose tragic past and bleak present lead him to question his faith and his purpose. Ethan Hawke plays the part with the desperate selfcontrol of someone who knows he's teetering on the edge of the abyss. (R) 117 minutes. (LJ) Costarring Amanda Seyfried, Cedric Kyles and Victoria Hill. (R) 113 minutes. (SP)

HEARTS BEAT LOUD Reviewed this issue. Directed by Brett Haley.

Co-starring Toni Collette, Ted Danson and Blythe Danner. (PG-13) 97 minutes. (SP) HEREDITARY It’s being called the scariest film of the year, and it stars … your mama! Well, not yours, exactly, unless you are Toni Collette. But like Get Out, It Follows and several other recent low-budget, high-concept horror movies, this one is out to make a point about how we all live in the shadow of our family history, as Collette’s character comes to realize after her matriarch mom dies and increasingly terrifying secrets are revealed. Co-starring Gabriel Byrne, Alex Wolff and Ann Dowd. Directed by Ari Aster. (R) 129 minutes. (SP) HOTEL ARTEMIS Jodie Foster stars as the Nurse, who runs a secret emergency room for criminals in near-future Los Angeles in this sci-fi feature debut from writer-director Drew Pearce.

Co-starring Sofia Boutella, Jeff Goldblum, Zachary Quinto and Dave Bautista. (R) (SP) INCREDIBLES 2 Normally, a sequel that takes 14 years to make is a dubious proposition. But for this follow-up to the megahit about a family of superheroes coming to grips with their powers—which is, if not the best Pixar film of all time, certainly in the conversation—I think we’ll all make an exception.

Directed by Brad Bird. Featuring the voices of Holly Hunter, Craig T. Nelson, Sarah Vowell and Samuel L. Jackson. (PG) 118 minutes. (SP) MOUNTAIN For people who love climbing documentaries, but just felt Everest was a little too specific, comes … Mountain! Full of epic images that probably should be experienced on the big screen, the film features breathtaking footage of the highest peaks in the world.

Directed by Jennifer Peedom.

Narrated by Willem Dafoe. (PG) 74 minutes. (SP) OCEAN’S 8 Steven Soderbergh promised there wouldn’t be an Oceans 14, but apparently he

discovered a sequel loophole, which is that there are other numbers. So he’s producing this sequel in which Sandra Bullock plays Debbie Ocean, sister of George Clooney’s Danny Ocean from the Ocean’s 11 films. And wouldn’t you know it, she’s into heists, too! Her all-woman team includes Cate Blanchett, Anne Hathaway, Rihanna, Mindy Kaling and Helena Bonham Carter.

Directed by Gary Ross. (PG-13) 110 minutes. (SP) RBG Forget The Avengers Infinity War. Here’s a movie that’s really worth cheering about. This smart, sly, heartfelt documentary by directors Julie Cohen and Betsy West, enters the marketplace with the same quiet, unassuming, yet determined demeanor as its subject— legendary Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. As cunning as Loki, as grounded as Black Panther, she wields her opinion with the impact and precision of Thor's hammer, and achieves actual change, fighting for gender equality under the law as she has for five decades of groundbaking decisions. And nary a special effect in sight—unless you count her incredible stamina to keep fighting the good fight at age 84.

(PG) 98 minutes. (LJ) THE SEAGULL Awk! Awk! Awk! Awwwk! Awk! Oh sorry, I didn’t realize you don’t speak seagull language. Let me translate: This adaptation of the Chekhov play stars Annette Bening as an aging actress who brings her entourage to her brother’s country estate. All sorts of romantic entanglements and jealousies ensue. The Seagull Film Times gave his movie four out of five “awks,” which is pretty good!

Directed by Michael Mayer. Costarring Elizabeth Moss, Saoirse Ronan and Mare Winningham.

(PG-13) 110 minutes. (SP) SOLO: A STAR WARS STORY Apparently millions of Star Wars fans have always wondered what Han Solo’s life was like before he encountered Luke and Ben

in that Mos Eisley cantina. Not me! I figured it out when I was six. Basically, his early life story is: he came out of a plastic and cardboard box; moved into a house made of Lincoln Logs; flew around in a LEGO ship; made friends with a bunch of little green army men, with whom he invaded the fortress Darth Vader had set up on the couch; briefly dated Barbie; and then got lost for about four years behind some shelves that were too hard to check behind because there was an aquarium on top. I’m basing this all on what I witnessed at my house in 1978, but I think it’s pretty accurate and I hope this movie is careful to recreate the details accurately. Directed

by Ron Howard. Starring Alden Ehrenreich, Woody Harrelson and Emilia Clarke. (PG-13) 135 minutes. (SP) TAG Based on a true story, this based-on-a-true-story comedy about a group of based-on-atrue-story guys who carry on a lifelong game of tag is based on a true story! Seriously, try to sit through one trailer for it or look at a single piece of marketing without learning how based on a true story it is. You know it’s bad when the marketing people are like, “Isn’t there anything good about this movie? Well, it’s … based on a true story!” Directed by Jeff Tomsic.

Starring Jon Hamm, Jeremy Renner, Ed Helms and Isla Fisher.

Based on a true story! (R) 100 minutes. (SP) UPGRADE After making his mark co-creating the Saw and Insidious horror franchises, Leigh Whannell is trying his hand at science fiction with this story of a near-future world where a man is able to use an experimental cybernetic chip to gain superhuman powers and avenge his wife’s murder.

If you’re looking for ideas from several terrible movies smashed down into an hour and a half, this is the movie for you. Written and directed by Whannell. Starring Logan Marshall-Green and Betty Gabriel. (R) 95 minutes. (SP)

FOOD & DRINK this Santa Cruz Mountains Pinot Noir for the reception. “We are delighted and completely surprised that Meghan chose this wine. It is a personal favorite,” he says. Nice to know that the new Duchess of Sussex has such good taste. The other thing you need to know is that the 2014 is officially sold out.

(I suggest you keep looking around such wine merchants as Shopper’s, Whole Foods, Deer Park, etc). But the good news is that there is a 2015 vintage of Patterson’s much-admired Pinot Noir already available. Fit for another royal wedding?

Wine Fit for a Queen

Local Mount Eden Vineyards wine served at royal wedding, plus a Pork & Pint Party at Home BY CHRISTINA WATERS

A

wine made in the Santa Cruz Mountains viticultural region was served at a special high profile wedding in London last month. An American actress was marrying a British prince, actually, and had ordered nine cases of one of her favorite Pinot Noirs for the reception. Yes, that royal wedding.

Blimey, I thought as soon as I found out about this, and quickly sent a Facebook message to the winemaker, hoping to find a bottle.

Probably none left on the Santa Cruz side of the hill, he told me. But! I

found a bottle at Shopper’s Corner a few days ago. And paid what turned out to be a bargain price of $35 for a serious bottle of Pinot. What a wonderful creation! Made from Dijon and California clones grown on the northernmost slope of the Santa Cruz Mountains appellation, the Domaine Eden Pinot Noir 2014 unfolded in layers of spice and red fruit, with firm tannins and a graceful cushion of raspberries in the center. The balance of fruit, tannins, and structure was outstanding (14 percent alcohol).

A hint of licorice and bay leaves

emerged after an hour of opening.

Winemaker Jeffrey Patterson has made a lovely wine, completely at home with food—we enjoyed it with roast local halibut and asparagus.

Congratulations to Patterson, his team and his vines. “The 2014 has a density and tannin that is bigger than previous Domaine bottlings,” Patterson says. “Cranberry, raspberry, pomegranate flavors are strong with a touch of bergamot, bay and mint adding to the mix.”

The winemaker himself was impressed by the unexpected news of Prince Harry’s new bride selecting

At Soif, a beautiful appetizer, large enough to share over crisp white wine ($18): This creation involved a thick wedge of Fogline Farms pork belly floating on a slab of polenta.

Sprigs of infant mustard sprouts sprang from the top of the pork.

Accompanying was a vivid emerald puree of mustard greens topped with Rainier cherries, and everything bathed in a rich cherry pork jus.

Such a delicious collage of flavors and textures from the kitchen of Chef Marshall Bishop. Eye candy with flavor sparkle and depth.

HOME SWEET HOME

Consider checking out the July 22 Pork & Pint Party at HOME restaurant, where Chef Brad Briske and his adventurous team are always ahead of the culinary pack. For those of you who want to know more about the way that Briske works with Llano Seco Ranch’s environmentally conscious porkraising practices, come on over to this special event where the rancher and chef will talk all things pig, plus a pig breakdown demo and an opportunity to make your own sausage. Yes, there will be plenty of beer involved from local Santa Cruz craft breweries. In the in-full-bloom back garden. Info at homesoquel.com.

GOTU GUY Koji Gotu, who owns Kaito, says Santa Cruz is a good town for people to

enjoy ramen, as the weather often gets cold by the water. PHOTO: JACOB PIERCE

Kaito Owner Koji Gotu talks noodles and how he named his restaurant BY JACOB PIERCE

K

oji Gotu bought the Pink Godzilla sushi spot on 41st Avenue four years ago, and refashioned it into an all-thingsJapanese restaurant with not just sushi, but also noodles, curry and Japanese tapas. Gotu, who used to own a similar restaurant in Burlingame, says that Santa Cruz, with its cool weather, is a good place for ramen. He also owns Sushi Market Sprouts, a takeout store on 7th Avenue, and says ramen is a good way for surfers to warm up after getting out of the water.

What’s the difference between ramen and other types of Asian noodles?

KOJI GOTU: Udon is a different type of noodle. Like ramen, it’s also a wheat noodle, but it’s a different type. Soba is a buckwheat noodle.

How did you come up with the restaurant name?

Kaito means ocean lover. The “kai”

means ocean or sea, and the “to” means people—so ocean people or seamen.

I’ve always liked the raised wooden seating area, where you can sit on the ground but still dangle your feet below. What’s it called?

We call it zashiki. Other people call it tatami. Zashiki means sitting on the floor without shoes.

Do you like eating that way?

I like it, and the people like it, too.

And our kids like it. It’s a different experience than regular tables and chairs.

Do you have a favorite food establishment here in the Pleasure Point area?

We have a lot here. Next door, Penny Ice Creamery has a huge line, and they’re really good. smilekaito.com, 464-2586.

organ Winery is one of the better-known wineries in the Monterey Bay area. Their wines can be found in restaurants, bars, stores, and, of course, at their tasting room in Carmel.

Morgan is a well-established winery that was founded by Dan Morgan Lee in the early 1980s.

And then in 1997 he and his wife Donna Lee purchased and planted a vineyard in the northern end of the Santa Lucia Highlands—now one of the most famed winegrowing properties in California.

The G17 Morgan Vineyards 2016 Syrah, Santa Lucia Highlands ($24), is a luxurious blend of 88 percent Syrah, 8 percent Grenache and 4 percent Tempranillo, aged for 15 months in French oak (16 percent new oak). G17 refers to one of Monterey County’s highways—best known for winding its way through lush vineyards. This rich ruby-red Syrah is medium-bodied with lovely soft tannins and abundant notes of boysenberry, white pepper, and “a mouthful of black fruits and cured meat.”

H RISA’S STARS BY RISA D’ANGELES SUMMER’S SIGNS: CANCER, LEO & VIRGO So much is happening this week. Sun enters Cancer and summer begins. Next Tuesday, Mars retrogrades in Aquarius and Wednesday is the full moon, the Cancer solar festival. And so, spring gave way to summer, finally, here in the northern latitudes. The Sun, when reaching the Tropic of Cancer, tells us summer’s here.

Beginning at summer solstice, and for 72 hours, the Sun remains still in its northern position at the Tropic of Cancer. After three days the pole of the Earth slowly begins to tilt in the opposite direction, sunlight begins to decrease, the days grow shorter, the nights longer. An imperceptible change (of light) overtakes the architecture and atmosphere of our Earth at the solstices.

Summer here (in the northern hemisphere).

The life force, a rush in springtime, and creating tall leggy green growth in the plant kingdom, settles down in summer into an unhurried, lazy, dreamy subdued heat. The human kingdom, expressing heavenly energies, seeks, instead of long

overheated laborious work, more mellow activities—leisure, rest, relaxation, vacations.

Summer, we hope, will be easy, sunny and fun.

If we watch carefully, we notice the plants begin to grow differently as they prepare for harvest.

Newborns in the animal kingdom become teenagers.

The astrological signs of summer are Cancer (Gate where Spirit enters matter), Leo (the Heart of Love is all that Matters) and Virgo (pregnant Madonna preparing for birth at winter solstice). In the Catholic Church’s liturgy, after Pentecost and Holy Trinity, we begin preparing for advent (first Sunday in December, preparing winter solstice).

Under heaven’s influences Earth’s kingdoms are always in flux. The light of the stars, planets, suns and moon chart our daily rhythms. The wise ones knew this. We are to be the “wise ones” now. (Read more on Summer, Mars retrograde and the Cancer Solar Festival on Risa’s Esoteric Astrology Facebook page and under Daily Studies at nightlightnews.org.

ARIES Mar21–Apr20

LIBRA Sep23–Oct22

Something new concerning family, property, real estate and home materializes in the coming year. You may buy or sell, invest in family property, move, form community, create a collective. It is good to look forward to various and different ways of living. Something about family develops, increases, expands. You find yourself at times staying closer to home after traveling here and there.

Family becomes everything (again).

The most realistic time in our lives is each moment. Most moments quietly slip by as we seek what we don’t have, wonder when vicissitudes will end or when the rainbow will appear. However, should we be aware of each moment, they begin to feel like blessings. This conscious perception of time allows us to be more authentic, spontaneous and free. For the next year, be careful with diet, eating only what vitalizes and is touched by the Sun.

TAURUS Apr21–May21

SCORPIO Oct23–Nov21

In the coming year, you must begin to travel, enter school, study, publish or begin a long adventure.

Everything faraway is interesting, even destinations others would never contemplate. At times you’ll consider lands different, unfamiliar and perhaps exotic. Bear in mind this needs deep reflection. The exotic is not always comfortable. A new expanded mind is occurring. Call forth new thinking, rich with Aquarian archetypes.

The surprise is a new creative talent comes forth from within; a creativity greater than previously experienced.

It will make you explore all areas of the arts. This builds a new sense of identity. Careful of illusion if entering a new love affair. You might find yourself with many tasks to perform this summer. Protect your hands and arms with gloves. Check the car, too. Plant a garden of herbs.

GEMINI May 22–June 20 Do you feel in conflict? There are so many avenues calling for your attention. First is the idea of remaining behind the scenes in solitude and retreat. Then there’s the demand facing you concerning work. Then there are all the people seeking your advice, inviting you here and there to be part of their vision. I need to ask, what is your vision of success? Because success calls to you in many guises.

CANCER Jun21–Jul20

Cosmo D’s Outrageous Edibles are the synergistic result of one man’s love for cannabis and 25 years as an Executive Chef.

It’s time to reflect upon the past year in preparation for your new birthday year. Review all actions, choices made, things produced, brought to flower, people spoken with, promises made, dreams that did (or did not) come true. Consider what was happy then and what would be joyful in the coming year.

Notice the different word—happy and joyful. A new year brings new endeavors. What would you like to happen?

LE0 Jul21–Aug22 New people, new confidence, new groups eventually beckon to you, extending invitations. Friendships blossom and you find yourself mingling and networking, interacting and sharing. Are you avoiding anyone? Step into their world, learn who they are, what they like and need. Hopes, wishes and dreams fill your mind and heart.

Create a Hope, Wishes and Dreams journal. Don’t lose it!

VIRGO Aug23–Sep22

REDWOOD COAST COLLECTIVE • REEF SIDE HEALTH CENTER • CURBSTONE EXCHANGE

The area of life called relationships becomes full of opportunities, personal and worldly. Something deep and profound occurs with someone close. It’s important to consider creating or expanding your professional work.

Ask loved ones for help. They can be of great benefit if you are kind and grateful. Be focused, determined and analytical with finances.

SAGITTARIUS Nov22–Dec20 New ideas, thoughts and thinking accelerate, life moves into the fast lane, new people enter your life, and you seek the world of art, music and culture. People notice you’ve become more optimistic. That dark night of the soul approach is exhausting. Certain situations at home seek detailed attention, tending and organizing. Give away everything not used in the past months. Someone else needs them.

CAPRICORN Dec21–Jan20 Perhaps in the past you felt the need for more self-confidence.

In the coming year, self-confidence, self-reliance, and the ability to know more of yourself and your abilities will emerge, expand, and fill you with self-assurance, poise, dignity and grace. Wherever you find yourself, that’s where you’re to be. Whatever you’re called to do, act with the highest intentions. Then the world around you becomes a blessing.

AQUARIUS Jan21–Feb18 New archetypes (patterns) concerning money and values appear for the rest of the year. Afterward, looking back on how you made, used and worked with money and what your values were, you see the changes made. It’s most important to create strategic plans for budgeting, accounts, savings, tracking all finances in detail. Should you consider investing, land is a lasting and true resource.

PISCES Feb19–Mar20 For a long time, you’ve adhered to one particular path, following those you love with heartfelt fervor. Love came first, always. A good ethic and value. Now, however, something’s changing. Too much is uncomfortable. You seek to realize what makes you happy and joyful. You’ll need courage to face the truth, courage to set yourself on the path (a journey) toward happiness. A mantram for you. “Let reality govern my every thought and truth be the master of my life.”

KEITH CUTLER, 70-Year Customer, Santa Cruz

Occupation: Retired, Santa Cruz Fire Department Hobbies: Golfing, walking, Japanese gardening, Astrological Sign: Taurus Who or what got you shopping here? KEITH: “When I first got out of the Navy, I was working for Schilling Slaughter House, and I delivered beef to Shopper’s.”

INGI: “We lived on Broadway, which is close by, and my parents shopped here. I had a cousin working here in the ‘50s. Shopper’s has always been charming and convenient.” KEITH: “I should point out that we’re here almost 7 days a week.” Really? INGI: “We shop daily for our meals which may include fish, produce, desserts, breads (Gayle’s, Alfaro’s,) eggs (Glaum) and chocolate, dark with nuts.” KEITH: “We’re big fans of Shopper’s wine department, especially California releases.
