ARIES Mar21–Apr19 In the 2000 film Cast Away, Tom Hanks plays an American FedEx executive who is stranded alone on a remote Pacific island after he survives a plane crash. A few items from the plane wash up on shore, including a volleyball. He draws a face on it and names it “Wilson,” creating a companion who becomes his confidant for the next four years. I’d love to see you enlist an ally like Wilson in the coming week, Aries. There are some deep, messy, beautiful mysteries you need to talk about. At least for now, the only listener capable of drawing them out of you in the proper spirit might be a compassionate inanimate object that won’t judge you or interrupt you.

TAURUS Apr20–May20 As far as I know, there has been only one battleship in history that was named after a poet. A hundred years ago, the Italian navy manufactured a dreadnought with triple-gun turrets and called it Dante Alighieri, after the medieval genius who wrote the Divine Comedy.

Other than that, most warships have been more likely to receive names like Invincible, Vengeance, Hercules, or Colossus. But it would be fine if you drew some inspiration from the battleship Dante Alighieri in the coming weeks. I think you will benefit from bringing a lyrical spirit and soulful passion to your expression of the warrior archetype.

GEMINI May21–June20 If you go to a 7-Eleven convenience store and order a Double Big Gulp drink, you must be prepared to absorb 40 teaspoons of sugar. But what will be an even greater challenge to your body is the sheer amount of fluid you will have to digest: 50 ounces. The fact is, your stomach can’t easily accommodate more than 32 ounces at a time. It’s true that if you sip the Double Big Gulp very slowly—like for a period of three and a half hours—the strain on your system will be less. But after the first half hour, as the beverage warms up, its taste will decline steeply. Everything I’ve just said should serve as a useful metaphor for you in the coming week. Even if you are very sure that the stuff you want to introduce into your life is healthier for you than a Double Big Gulp, don’t get more of it than you can comfortably hold.

CANCER Jun21–Jul22

Natural Foundations of Capitola Micro Facial is a non-invasive treatment using small amounts of electricity that stimulates facial muscles, triggering a chemical reaction at the cellular level.

The results are tighter, toned facial muscles, reduced sagging, increased collagen and elastin production, and improved circulation.

If you surrender to the passive part of your personality, you will be whipped around by mood swings in the coming days. You will hem and haw, snivel and procrastinate, communicate ineptly, and be confused about what you really feel. If, on the other hand, you animate the proactive side of your personality, you are likely to correct sloppy arrangements that have kept you off-balance.

You will heal rifts and come up with bright ideas about how to get the help you need. It’s also quite possible you will strike a blow for justice and equality, and finally get the fair share you were cheated out of in the past.

Our patients have noted some of the following:

In his 1982 martial arts film Dragon Lord, Jackie Chan experimented with more complex stunts than he had tried in his previous films. The choreography was elaborate and intricate. In one famous sequence, he had to do 2,900 takes of a single fight sequence to get the footage he wanted. That’s the kind of focused attention and commitment to detail I recommend to you in the coming weeks, Leo—especially if you are learning new tricks and attempting novel approaches.

VIRGO Aug23–Sep22 In 1786, Jacques Balmat and Michel Paccard were the first explorers to reach the top of 15,781-foot Mont Blanc on the French-Italian border. They were hailed as heroes.

One observer wrote that the ascent was “an astounding achievement of courage and determination, one of the greatest in the annals of mountaineering. It was accomplished by men who were not only on unexplored ground but on a route that all the guides believed impossible.”

And yet today, 228 years later, the climb is considered

relatively easy for anyone who’s reasonably prepared.

In a typical year, 20,000 people make it to the summit.

Why am I bringing this to your attention? Because I suspect that you are beginning to master a skill that will initially require you to be like Balmat and Paccard, but will eventually be almost routine.

LIBRA Sep23–Oct22 Those who invoke the old metaphor about the caterpillar that transforms into the butterfly often omit an important detail: the graceful winged creature is helpless and weak when it first wriggles free of its chrysalis. For a while it’s not ready to take up its full destiny. As you get ready for your own metamorphosis, Libra, keep that in mind. Have plans to lie low and be self-protective in the days following your emergence into your new form. Don’t try to do loop-the-loops right away.

SCORPIO Oct23–Nov21 According to my analysis of the astrological omens, you Scorpios are currently the sign of the zodiac that is least likely to be clumsy, vulgar, awkward, or prone to dumb mistakes. On the other hand, you are the most likely to derisively accuse others of being clumsy, vulgar, awkward, or prone to dumb mistakes. I recommend that you resist that temptation, however. In the coming week, it is in your selfish interests to be especially tactful and diplomatic. Forgive and quietly adjust for everyone’s mistakes. Don’t call undue attention to them or make them worse. Continue to build your likeability and finetune your support system.

SAGITTARIUS Nov22–Dec21 You have cosmic permission to be bigger than life and wilder than sin. You have a poetic license to be more wise than clever. And you should feel free to laugh longer than might seem polite and make no apologies as you spill drinks while telling your brash stories. This phase of your astrological cycle does not require you to rein yourself in or tone yourself down or be a well-behaved model citizen. In fact, I think it will be best for everyone concerned if you experiment with benevolent mischief and unpredictable healing and ingenious gambles.

CAPRICORN Dec22–Jan19 For over 2,000 years, Chinese astronomers have understood the science of eclipses. And yet as late as the 1800s, sailors in the Chinese navy shot cannonballs in the direction of lunar eclipses, hoping to chase away the dragons they imagined were devouring the moon. I have a theory that there’s a similar discrepancy in your psyche, Capricorn. A fearful part of you has an irrational fantasy that a wiser part of you knows is a delusion. So how can we arrange for the wiser part to gain ascendancy? There’s an urgent need for you to stop wasting time and energy by indulging in that mistaken perspective.

AQUARIUS Jan20–Feb18 Squirrels don’t have a perfect memory of where they bury their nuts. They mean to go back and dig them all up later, but they lose track of many. Sometimes trees sprout from those forgotten nuts. It’s conceivable that on occasion a squirrel may climb a tree it planted years earlier. I see this as a useful metaphor for you to meditate on in the coming weeks. You are on the verge of encountering grown-up versions of seeds you sowed once upon a time and then forgot about.

PISCES Feb19–Mar20 On a German TV show, martial artist Jackie Chan performed a tough trick. While holding a raw egg in his right hand, he used that hand to smash through three separate sets of four concrete blocks. When he was finished, the egg was still intact. I see your next task as having some resemblances to that feat, Pisces. You must remain relaxed, protective, and even tender as you destroy an obstruction that has been holding you back.

Can you maintain this dual perspective long enough to complete the job? I think you can.

<4 by former members of national dance troupes from West Africa and the Congo. As part of this community, I wish to send a prayer that this epidemic will be contained. I have so many wonderful memories of living in West Africa, and I feel a deep connection to it. I also lived in Lesotho, a small country inside South Africa which suffered the terrible impact of AIDS. It is predicted that as many people who died from AIDS might be cut down by Ebola. Hopefully there will be vaccine and a way to slow down and control the awful spectre of this disease.

ONLINE COMMENTS RE: ALPR TECHNOLOGY How about a tank? I think it would be good if the SCPD had a howitzer maybe.

Plus, I think I'll go into the station tomorrow and simply surrender for anything I might ever do in the future, just give it up to them and enter the prison system now, as I just can't be trusted not to some day commit some crime.

WELLNESS

MAKING IT STICK Putting butter in coffee, with the aim of kick-starting the body’s burning of fat, is a new health fad.

Fat Chance

F

orget toast. We’ve already moved on. But don’t even think about taking away our butter. Fat fuels the brain, and who doesn’t want to keep their cognitive organ running smoothly under a well-oiled sheen? Yes, the fat revolution is upon us, and it sure feels liberating to reclaim the goodness of every naturally occurring fat short of whale blubber. But is the latest breakfast replacement trend—which calls for two glorious tablespoons of organic grass-fed butter—taking this fat love thing a little too far?

Dave Asprey, CEO and founder of Bulletproof(R) coffee, promises weight loss, a slower release of

caffeine, and sustained, intense concentration and focus (like six hours’ worth) when you follow his recipe for the fast-spreading breakfast of champions—“upgraded” Bulletproof-branded coffee ($18.95 for 12 ounces of beans), an optional teaspoon of “Brain Octane” MCT (multi-chain triglyceride) oil— derived from coconut and palm kernel oils—and, of course, a supersized hunk of butter.

Blend into a creamy froth, scandalously dotted with globules of pooling butter. Then drink it down, smack those lips a few times (they’ll be greasy) and head out the door. Just be careful not to fly too close to the sun and melt those buttery wings.

While there may be a tendril of truth to Asprey’s claims—and I do have a rather fit friend who calls the concoction a “game changer”—taking your coffee with an oil slick is not going to be good for just anybody.

Aside from the 441-calorie mixture not being the most nutrient-filled way to start your day, it may (surprisingly) do more harm than good, depending on how your body works.

“He’s not giving you the full story physiologically, and what he’s leaving out is really important,” says Dr. Dawn Motyka of KUSP’s Ask Dr. Dawn. For instance: “You absolutely cannot have any starch or sugar with this.” And no matter how tempting it may be, Asprey really should warn

SANTACRUZ.COM | GTWEEKLY.COM | SEPTEMBER 10-16, 2014

Is the butter-in-coffee fad really good for you? BY MARIA GRUSAUSKAS

his followers not to add sugar. “That would be horrible, because then that fat is just going to circulate in your arteries; you can’t burn it.”

But even if you follow the recipe without detour, you need to be careful.

“If you do that for breakfast and then you have pasta for dinner you're going to screw up your epigenetics,” she says. Epigenetics is the study of how genetic activity can be altered without changing genetic code.

She illustrates the fat versus carb epiphany with the “McDonald’s recipe for death”—high saturated fat and high carbs. “If you mix those two, the insulin from the high carbs steps on your body’s ability to use those fats as energy,” says Motyka.

In other words, once you eat any starches or carbs at all, your body turns off fat burning for hours. “The problem is that it's really hard to not eat starch and sugar in our society, and in combination with high fat, especially saturated animal fats, it can be very toxic for people.”

Also, worth knowing before you jump on the bulletproof bandwagon: the trend is really only OK for people who are on a strict paleo diet—for more than just that day.

“If you’re eating paleo, after a couple of weeks your body adjusts and you produce different enzymes, and your body starts to burn fat, and when you do that that’s great, but the adaptation relies on you not eating sugars,” says Motyka.

So, in order for the proposed benefits to outweigh the potential damage, your body needs to be in ketosis—burning ketones, watersoluble molecules produced by the liver from fatty acids—rather than glycolysis, when your body is burning glucose for fuel.

I promised a tendril of truth: Mental performance is very likely to be at its best when you’re in that euphoric fat-burning state. “Because you’re in ketosis, when your brain is fed fat and is burning fat as fuel, it does alter your concentration, which is why people fast before exams,” says Motyka, who used to fast before her exams in med school.

“Burning fat as fuel, because of the ketones, changes things in the brain.

So he’s right about that.” And then she empties one last bullet: “But any starch will blow that.”

MAKING A SPLASH The whale season to end all whale seasons has scientists searching for explanations

SEPTEMBER 10-16, 2014 | GTWEEKLY.COM | SANTACRUZ.COM

BY SALLY NEAS

12

The last year has been bliss for whale fanatics like myself.

I have pictures of whales pinned up in my bedroom, look for them almost every day on West Cliff, and read any article about them that I come across. I am even considering getting a whale tattoo. So the fall of 2013 was the beginning of a special time.

That’s when the Monterey Bay began to see an unprecedented amount of whale activity, particularly from humpbacks—so much so that the past year has been called “The Year of Abundance” by media like Monterey County Weekly and researchers like Jodi Fredi, who gave a talk on the subject last month. The trend hasn’t shown signs of slowing.

It’s not just the humpbacks that have been active. There have been reports about flocks of pelicans in the tens of thousands. And many may remember the feeding frenzy last Thanksgiving, when hundreds of sea lions, birds and whales were chowing down right off shore; the event was so remarkable it made The New York Times. Then there’s the unforgettably pungent fish die-off last month in the Santa Cruz Harbor, where schools of anchovies were trapped in the harbor, and died in droves due to lack of oxygen. All of this activity has led locals to wonder: what the heck is going on? Is this normal? And is it going to continue? Unfortunately, as is often the case with science, there are no easy answers, but scientists do have some intriguing leads.

WHALE TALES One of the reasons we are seeing more whales is simply that there are more whales in general. “When I started doing this, in the late ’80s, there were only 400 humpbacks,” says Nancy Black, a marine biologist and owner of the whale-watching company Monterey Bay Whale Watch. “But since they’ve been protected, their numbers have increased over the years by six percent a year.

There are about 2,500 [now].” >16

Flipping the Script A local planning expert puts the art of house-flipping to work for the public good BY JESSICA M. PASKO

I

n the fallout from the national mortgage crisis, “house flipping” has gained a stronghold in the cultural vernacular, inspiring a number of reality television series. It’s either a testament to American ingenuity or profiting from others’ misfortunes— or both—depending on one’s perspective.

But what if this concept—buying a home at low value, fixing it up and then selling it for a much higher price—could be used for the greater good?

That’s what longtime planning expert Michael Bethke and his co-workers are trying to promote through the creation of a program they’re calling For Sale, For Good.

Bethke wants to incentivize homeowners to leave their properties to nonprofit organizations through

living trusts and other methods. He and his friends have already begun helping flip one San Lorenzo Valley house, with the proceeds planned to go to charity.

Some people have properties they’re holding onto or have inherited‚ that might not be codecompliant. He’s encouraging them fix up the property, sell it, and donate proceeds to a local nonprofit they feel passionately about.

For Sale, For Good can help with major renovations, as the group is currently doing in the Valley.

“We want it to be all-inclusive for all kinds of public good,” Bethke says.

Sometimes that means getting the renovation process under way or connecting them with estate and planning attorneys.

“What our group does is we come in and we look at what needs to

be done,” he explains. “We can get red-tagged properties and then sell them at a discount—with the understanding that a sizeable portion of the next proceeds will go to a charity of your choice.”

RAW MATERIALS Currently, For Sale, For Good is working on its first test case, and Bethke believes it’s just the start.

Back in October, Bethke was approached about a property in Felton known as Rusty’s Retreat.

For years, the Rosebloom Avenue property was not just an eyesore, but also a constant fixture in the county court system. From suits filed by one-time tenants of the property to a barrage of civil actions filed by the county for code compliance issues, the >14

FLIPPING THE SCRIPT <12 property owned by Rusty Hartman was mired in litigation and red tags.

In the world of code enforcement, red tags are housing code violations placed on someoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s property title, often for unpermitted construction, that can make it difficult to get loan financing. That, of course, also makes it very hard to sell the house until the red tags have been removed and all the issues have been legalized. As part of the renovations, For Sale, For Good is working to fix those problems and get the red tags removed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The one true redemption thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s actually going to save his good name is that he wanted the proceeds of his property to go to programs for disadvantaged children,â&#x20AC;? says Bethke of Hartman.

The net proceeds of the sale will be going toward to a group of charities, including Jacobâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Heart, the Resource Center for Nonviolence and the Boys and Girls Club of San Lorenzo Valley and Scotts Valley,

which doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t yet have a brick-andmortar location.

Rustyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Retreat had been embroiled in litigation for some 23 years, involving numerous judgments and injunctions that continued on even after Hartmanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s death in August 2013.

The property was chock-full of illegal outbuildings, piles of garbage and abandoned vehicles.

At one point, Hartman was cited for running an illegal auto wrecking yard at the property, and he had developed an ugly reputation for being something of a slumlord.

After his death, Hartmanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s trust was financially responsible for the resulting expenses pertaining to the lawsuit.

Bethke hopes the proceeds to charity from the sale will be $200,000, and Bethke points out there is the added bonus of it being a tax write-off. Bethke says heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s working for free, and the renovation costs for contractors and construction will come out to about $65,000 out of the sale.

LEGALIZE IT Bethke and friends arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the only ones working to remove red tags from peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s property titles.

The countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Planning Department is working to implement a new construction legalization programâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; the first in 20 yearsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;called the Legalization Assistance Permit Program, or LAPP. The program would focus not on illegal houses, but issues like renovations and conversions done without property permitting or inspections.

County officials hope the program can encourage and incentivize property owners to make their property improvements legal, and to help them obtain permits and inspections with the goal of ensuring everything is brought up to current code and standards. A major component of the plan is to help applicants find affordable ways of doing this. A public outreach campaign is planned, including

Tucked away in the lofty hills of Bonny Doon, inside the office of the Santa Cruz Comic News, Thom Zajac and the other half of his two-man team, John Govsky, leaf through the yellowing pages of the publicationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very first issue.

The pair become animated as they take a nostalgic look at the 30-year-old editorial cartoons, and point out the custom advertisements of local, iconic businesses still in existence, like New Leaf (then called The Neighborhood Food Co-Op), Logos Books & Records, and Saturn CafĂŠ. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You see this ad I put together? These things were done with a daisy wheel. Do you remember the daisy wheel? It was a typewriter that allowed you to change fonts,â&#x20AC;? says Zajac. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oh, yeah,â&#x20AC;? says Govsky.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;They were loud.â&#x20AC;?

On Sept. 12, 1984, Zajac published the first installment of the Santa Cruz Comic News, and although it has been his sole occupation for the past 30 years, he didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t always know that weaving tales with editorial cartoons would be his fate. Before that, he had been working as a park ranger at the Palo Altoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Foothills Park, but he wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t putting his journalism degree to good use. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I liked it, but it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really my calling,â&#x20AC;? says Zajac.

He went back to school at UC Santa Cruz and graduated with a creative writing degree. Shortly thereafter, Zajac attended a protest at the Diablo Canyon Nuclear Power Plant, and was arrested with a slew of others.

He used his one phone call to put his two weeksâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; notice in at the rangerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s office. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It just inspired me,â&#x20AC;? he says.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;To have a job and make a living is one thing, but I had to pursue a more meaningful life.â&#x20AC;?

Zajac became a political canvasser, living in a co-op, and began to draw his own cartoons.

Emulating the style of the comic strip â&#x20AC;&#x153;Doonesbury,â&#x20AC;? he created comics that poked fun at â&#x20AC;Ś political canvassing and living in co-ops.

With encouragement from friends, Zajac set out to sell his strip to newspapers, but the outlook for budding cartoonists was bleak. Newspapers rarely bought cartoons from individual cartoonists, and instead bought subscriptions of multiple comic strips from syndicates. After reading a thematic editorial cartoon book, Zajac was struck with an a-ha moment on April 1, 1984, while driving down Highway 17. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The idea came to me: if you get enough cartoons on

the same subject, you can string them together in a chronological order to tell a story,â&#x20AC;? says Zajac.

In the subsequent three decades, the Comic News has experienced ups and downs.

Govsky, a web designer and teacher at Cabrillo College, came on board in 2004 to create and run the website, in addition to helping with the editorial work.

While they hope the paper will continue to grow, its success is partially reliant on right-wing presidents like Reagan and Bush, who were in office during the Comic Newsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; headier days. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The worse the news, the better the cartoons,â&#x20AC;? jokes Govsky.

Comic News will celebrate its 30th birthday at Louieâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Cajun Kitchen on Wednesday, Sept. 17, from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m.

The event is open to the public.

DINNER ON THE WATER Scientists say much of the increase in humpbacks can be traced to the abundant presence of anchovies, whose arrival is the real mystery in Monterey Bay. PHOTO: JODI FREDI

SEPTEMBER 10-16, 2014 | GTWEEKLY.COM | SANTACRUZ.COM

MAKING A SPLASH <12

So, more whales mean more whales to see. (Humpbacks were placed on the endangered species list in 1970.)

The same is true for other animals that have been protected, like sea otters, which were once almost hunted to extinction.

But what has been remarkable about this year is that the humpbacks have been sticking around for so long.

Typically they come into the bay, eat up what is here, then move on to other feeding spots. These past 12 months, the whales have been more concentrated and slower to move on.

That leads us to the next reason we have seen so many humpbacks: anchovies.

The last year has seen huge numbers of anchovies. The spawn of anchovies is likely related to a 25-year oscillation between anchovies and sardines, a phenomenon that has been catalogued

by Francisco Chavez of the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute.

Every 25 years, the California coast fluxes between a “sardine regime” and an “anchovy regime.” During a “sardine regime,” there are historically tons of sardines, warmer ocean temperatures off the coast of California, and fewer nutrients in the water. An anchovy regime, which we entered at the beginning of the new millennium, is typified by the opposite: cooler water, more nutrients and tons of anchovies.

But in fact, the ocean hasn’t been cold. It’s actually been warmer than average. On July 28, the Pacific reached the highest recorded temperature of 67.5 F, 10 degrees higher than past July averages.

The warmer waters may be related to a strange wind pattern. Starting in the spring, the winds usually blow from the northwest, causing an upwelling of deeper, colder waters. We had a windy spring, like normal, which likely began

the upwelling of these colder waters.

These northwest winds usually continue, but not this summer. Instead, we saw lots of south winds, which bring warmer water.

It’s hard to get a clear answer on why the southern winds blew during the summer, because no one really seems to know. “It’s incredibly complex,” said Fredi, a researcher and wildlife photographer.

“What I do know is the scientists don’t fully understand it.”

NEW NORMAL? In consulting with a handful of experts and reading reports about this strange year, that was a constant refrain.

The theory about wind patterns is speculation, and we are likely years away from really understanding what has been going on in the atmosphere.

Some scientists are even critical of Chavez’s theory about sardines and anchovies. His data goes back only

100 years, and older records of marine sediments tracing back thousands of years suggest that there were times when both groups were in high populations.

It’s hard to say if any of this can really be considered “normal,” especially because populations of many marine animals are still recovering from being heavily hunted and fished.

“What we are seeing is not unlike some pre-colonial accounts,” said Fredi, pointing to books such as “The Ohlone Way,” which describes life in the Monterey Bay before Spanish settlers.

So, I ask Black while on a whalewatching trip, is this all going to continue?

“I would love that,” she says. Her whale-watching business has been booming since word of the amazing phenomenon circulated around the U.S. and the globe. “But really, there is no telling.”

FLIPPING THE SCRIPT <14 public workshops slated to begin later this month, according to planning director Kathy Previsch.

Bethke believes promoting the idea of For Sale, For Good to the public could entice owners of blighted properties to work to improve them, rather than just allowing them to lie fallow—the same goes for foreclosed properties now owned by the bank, and that, he says, could have a positive impact for whole neighborhoods.

Bailey Properties, a real estate company, is helping them prepare the Hartman property for staging for open houses, and Bethke says he and his partners are also speaking with banks and county officials about a number of foreclosed properties in the San Lorenzo Valley to see if they could be used in the same way.

Red tags are a personal issue for Bethke, and he is particularly affected by the years he spent in East Palo Alto in the 1990s, when he witnessed the danger of extreme violations firsthand.

The case that left the biggest mark on him was when a drug dealer set fire to a home that wasn’t code-compliant. There were people living inside a garage that had been illegally converted when it happened, and a total of nine people—including five children— died in the fire, unable to get out of the home’s single door.

At the time, it was considered “one of America’s single worst multifatality residential structure fires,” according to the report by the Menlo Park Fire Protection District. Rescue efforts were hampered by a burning car near the front door, by the protective iron bars on the windows and three seemingly aggressive dogs at the rear of the building.

Bethke, then Palo Alto’s planning director, had to go into the torched home afterward. The harrowing details still haunt him. He recalls seeing scratch marks on the wall of the converted garage that were believed to have been made by the children trying to escape.

“That’s why I feel so strongly,” Bethke says.

Very early on, researchers unVe deerstood d that just designing g a system m th hat only technically anonymizes trraffic is not enough—not iff the sy ystem is used exclusively by militarry an nd intelligence. In order to cloak sp pooks better, Tor needed to be used d by y a diverse group of people: Activissts,, student nts,, corporate p researcherss,, so occer moms, journalists, drug deallerrs, hackers, child d pornographers, fo oreign agents, terrorists—the more diiverse the group up that spooks could hiide in the crowd in plain sight ht.

Tor also needed to be moved off ff site and disassociated from N Naval research. As Syverson told Blloomb mberg in January 2014: “If you haave a system that’s only a Navy sy ystem, anything popping out of it is obviously b from the Navy. Yo You need to t haave a network that carries traffic fo or otther people as well.”

Tor co-founder Roger Dingledine said the same thing at a cconference in 2004: “The Unit ited Stat ates government can’t simply run an an nony nymit ity system fo for everybody and then use it themselves only. Because th hen every time a connection came fro om it people would say, ‘Oh, iit’s anotther CIA agent.’ t ’ If those th are th the only ly people l using the network.”

In 2007, 22-year-old Sw wedish hacker/researcher Dan Egerrstad told Sydney Sy ey Morning Mo ng g He Herald that att he thinks many ny of the major Tor nodes are being run n by y intelligence ageencies or other parties interested d in n liistening in n on Tor communication. Egerstad E had managed to capture a trrove of passwords and other sensitiiv ive info formation n by monit itoring Tor trraffic on five servers he had installed. He can’t fiv help but ut speculate wh who’s beh hind d other Tor servers. “If you actually y look int nto where these Tor nodes are hosted h and how big they are, some of th hese nodes cost thousands of dollars eaach month just to host becau ause they’re using u lots of bandw dwidt dth, they’re heavy y-du dut uty servers and so on, on,” Egerstad d say ays.

“Who would pay ay for fo this and be anonymous? For example, fiv fi of six five of them are in Washington Wa D D.C.” Edw dward d Snowden’s leaaks clearly showed the NSA and GCHQ Q run Tor nodes, and are interested in n running more. And running 50 Tor nodes n doesn’t seem like it would be b too difficult for any ny of the world d’s intelligence agencies—whether g g A American, , German, British, Russian, Chinese C or Iranian. Hell, iff you’re an n in ntelligence agency, there’s no reason no ot to run a Tor node.

In 2012, Dingledine rev vealed that at the Tor Network is confi figured to priorit itize speed and rout utee traffic through h the fastest servers/ /nodes availab av able. Dingledine was crrit iticized by the Tor communit ity fo for th he obvious ob reason that funneling fu trafficc through a handful of fast nodes made surveilling and sub ubverting Tor much eaasier.

<23 that the NSA had figured out various ways of unmasking and penetrating the anonymity of the Tor Network.

Wikileaks In 2009, Jacob Appelbaum came on board as one of five salaried employees of the Tor Network, earning a salary of $96,000 as a developer. About 90 percent of Tor’s funds that year came from federal grants, mostly from the State Department and the CIA-spinoff International Broadcasting Bureau (IBB). Appelbaum’s Tor gig has continued uninterrupted ever since, netting him somewhere around a half-million dollars. Not a bad haul.

Yet in 2010, right in the midst of him being funded by intel grants, Appelbaum emerged as an important Wikileaks volunteer. He used his celebrity status in the hacker world to promote the organization, helped secure Wikileaks’ servers with Tor technology and even bailed Julian Assange out of public speaking gigs when the heat from U.S. authorities got too hot.

We can get a sense of the kind of info that Google and other Surveillance Valley megacorps compile on us, and the ways in which that intel might be used and abused, by looking at the business practices of the “data broker” industry.

Thanks to a series of Senate hearings, the business of data brokerage is finally being understood by consumers, but the industry got its start back in the 1970s. The early operations pulled in information from any source they could get their hands on—voter registration, credit card transactions, product warranty information, donations to political campaigns and nonprofits, court records— storing it in master databases and then analyzing it in all sorts of ways that could be useful to direct-mailing and telemarketing outfits. It wasn’t long before data brokers realized that this information could be used beyond telemarketing, and

quickly evolved into a global for-profit intelligence business that serves every conceivable data and intelligence need.

Today, the industry churns out somewhere around $200 billion in revenue annually. There are up to 4,000 data broker companies—some of the biggest are publicly traded—and together, they have detailed information on just about every adult in the western world.

No source of information is sacred: transaction records are bought in bulk from stores, retailers and merchants; magazine subscriptions are recorded; food and restaurant preferences are noted; public records and social networks are scoured and scraped. What kind of prescription drugs did you buy? What kind of books are you interested in? Are you a registered voter? To what nonprofits do you donate? What movies do you watch? Political documentaries? Hunting reality TV shows?

That info is combined and kept up-to-date with address, payroll information, phone numbers, email accounts, social security numbers, vehicle registration and financial history. And all that is sliced, isolated, analyzed and mined for data about you and your habits in a million different ways.

The dossiers are not restricted to generic market segmenting categories like “Young Literati” or “Shotguns and Pickups” or “Kids & Cul-de-Sacs,” but often contain the most private and intimate details about a person’s life, all of it packaged and sold over and over again to anyone willing to pay.

Take MEDbase200, a boutique for-profit intel outfit that specializes in selling health-related consumer data. Well, until recently, the company offered its clients a list of rape victims (or “rape sufferers,” as the company calls them) at the low price of $79 per thousand. The company claims to have segmented this data set into hundreds of different categories, including stuff like the ailments they suffer, prescrip-

They offer all sorts of targeted dossier collections on every population segments of our society, from the affluent to the extremely vulnerable: ] people with drug addictions ] detailed personal info on police officers and other government employees ] people with bad credit/bankruptcies ] minorities who’ve used payday loan services ] domestic violence shelter locations (normally these addresses would be shielded by law) ] elderly gamblers If you want to see how this kind of profile data can be used to scam unsuspecting individuals, look no further than Richard Guthrie, an Iowa retiree who had his life savings siphoned out of his bank account. Their weapon of choice: databases bought from large for-profit data brokers listing retirees who entered sweepstakes and bought lottery tickets.

Here’s a 2007 New York Times story describing the racket: Mr. Guthrie, who lives in Iowa, had entered a few sweepstakes that caused his name to appear in a database advertised by infoUSA, one of the largest compilers of consumer information.

InfoUSA sold his name, and data on scores of other elderly Americans, to known lawbreakers, regulators say.

InfoUSA advertised lists of “Elderly Opportunity Seekers,” 3.3 million older people “looking for ways to make money,” and “Suffering Seniors,” 4.7 million people with cancer or Alzheimer’s disease. “Oldies but Goodies” contained 500,000 gamblers over 55 years old, for 8.5 cents apiece. One list said: “These people are gullible. They want to believe that their luck can change.”

Data brokers argue that cases like Guthrie are an anomaly—a once-in-

Medbase200 is the owner of this list. Select from families affected by over 500 different ailments, and/or who are consumers of over 200 different Rx medications. Lists can be further selected on the basis of lifestyle, ethnicity, geo, gender and much more.

Inquire today for more information.

MEDbase promptly took its “rape sufferers” list off line last week after its existence was revealed in a Senate investigation into the activities of the data-broker industry. The company pretended like the list was a huge mistake. A MEDbase rep tried convincing a Wall Street Journal reporter that its rape dossiers were just a “hypothetical list of health conditions/ailments.” The rep promised it was never sold to anyone. Yep, it was a big mistake.

We can all rest easy now.

Thankfully, MEDbase has hundreds of other similar dossier collections, hawking the most private medical information.

For instance, if lists of rape victims aren’t your thing, MEDbase can sell dossiers on people suffering from anorexia, substance abuse, AIDS and HIV, Alzheimer’s disease, Asperger’s syndrome, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, bedwetting (enuresis), binge eating, depression, fetal alcohol syndrome, genital herpes, genital warts, gonorrhea, homelessness, infertility, syphilis … the list goes on and on.

Normally, such detailed health information would fall under federal law and could not be disclosed or sold without consent. But because these data harvesters rely on indirect sources of information instead of medical records, they’re able to sidestep regulations put in place to protect the privacy of people’s health data.

MEDbase isn’t the only company exploiting these loopholes. By the industry’s own estimates, there are

As big as Infogroup is, there are dozens of other for-profit intelligence businesses that are even bigger: massive multi-national intel conglomerates with revenues in the billions of dollars. Some of them, like LexisNexis and Experian, are well known, but mostly these are outfits that few Americans have heard of, with names like Epsilon, Altegrity and Acxiom.

Scammers are a lucrative source of revenue. Their money is just as good as anyone else’s. And some of the profile “products” offered by the industry seem tailored specifically to fraud use.

However, InfoUSA is not some fringe or shady outfit, but a hugely profitable, politically connected company.

InfoUSA was started by Vin Gupta in the 1970s as a basement operation hawking detailed lists of RV and mobile home dealers. The company quickly expanded into other areas and began providing business intel services to thousands of businesses. By the early 2000s, the company raised more than $30 million in venture capital funding, including $10 million from Palo Alto’s Trident Capital, $10 million from Draper Fisher Jurvetson’s MeVC fund and a strategic investment from Yahoo, Inc. By then, InfoUSA boasted of having information on 230 million consumers. A few years later, InfoUSA counted the biggest valley companies as its clients, including Google, Yahoo, Microsoft and AOL.

For the past year, Chairman John D. (Jay) Rockefeller IV has been conducting a Senate Commerce Committee investigation of the data broker industry and how it affects consumers. The committee finished its investigation recently without reaching any real conclusions, but issued a report warning about the dangers posed by the for-profit intel industry and the need for further action by lawmakers. The report noted with concern that many of these firms failed to cooperate with the investigation into their business practices:

30

Data brokers operate behind a veil of secrecy. Three of the largest companies–Acxiom, Experian, and Epsilon–to date have been similarly secretive with the Committee with respect to their practices, refusing to identify the specific sources of their data or the customers who purchase it. … The refusal by several major data broker companies to provide the Committee complete responses regarding data sources and customers only reinforces the aura of secrecy surrounding the industry.

Rockefeller’s investigation was an important first step breaking open this secretive industry, but it was missing one notable element. Despite its focus on companies that feed on people’s personal data, the investigation did not include Google or the other big Surveillance Valley data munchers.

And that’s too bad. Because if anything, the investigation into data brokers only highlighted the danger posed by the

consumer-facing data companies like Google, Facebook, Yahoo and Apple.

As intrusive as data brokers are, the level of detail in the information they compile on Americans pales to what can be vacuumed up by a company like Google. To compile their dossiers, traditional data brokers rely on mostly indirect intel: what people buy, where they vacation, what websites they visit.

Google, on the other hand, has access to the raw uncensored contents of your inner life: personal emails, chats, the diary entries and medical records that we store in the cloud, our personal communication with doctors, lawyers, psychologists, friends. Data brokers know us through our spending habits.

Google accesses the unfiltered details of our personal lives.

A recent study showed that Americans are overwhelmingly opposed to having their online activity tracked and analyzed. Seventy-three percent of people polled for the Pew Internet & American Life Project viewed the tracking of their search history as an invasion of privacy, while 68 percent were against targeted advertising, replying: “I don’t like having my online behavior tracked and analyzed.”

This isn’t news to companies like Google, which last year warned shareholders: “Privacy concerns relating to our technology could damage our reputation and deter current and potential users from using our products and services.”

Little wonder then that Google, and the rest of Surveillance Valley, is terrified that the conversation about surveillance could soon broaden to include not only government espionage, but for-profit spying as well.

and animation; I’m doing it with photography. But as it turns out, the techniques are very similar.”

The two have been collaborating since Matthew was quite young, the Bay Area-based family having always encouraged artistic endeavors. Jeffery Luhn was drawn to photography in his early teens and after becoming a professional photographer at age 17, he began work for United Press International. The job took him all over the world and into more than one precarious situation.

“I went to places where there were usually bad things happening,” he says. “In the Philippines when Ferdinand Marcos’s government was falling, I got a camera shot out of my hands while I was photographing a group. It just disappeared.”

Although these experiences— including a plane crash in Mexico and getting stabbed in Scandinavia— were a perilous part of the job, Luhn was inspired by the incredible power that images have to transcend language differences.

“When I was living in China, I had a studio in Hong Kong, and I learned that Chinese people have so many dialects they can’t [all] speak to each other, but they have

the same written language, so they can read the same newspapers.

The symbols and pictographs cross all those language barriers,” he explains. “I couldn't find a parallel in the Western world—a Spaniard can’t speak to a Scandinavian unless they speak English.”

On a broader scale, relying more on images could foster less miscommunication where it would matter most and create a stronger collective consciousness, says Luhn.

Drawing from the logic of ancient cave-drawings, this is precisely why Luhn invited his nephew to speak with him at Cabrillo, where he’s taught photography for the last seven years.

“I think it edges us to a greater worldwide understanding and that's important. Photography is getting less profitable but it’s becoming more important, because it’s more democratic and it’s two-way communication—it’s universal,” he says. “It extends your family, you feel more engaged with humanity because you can communicate and you don't have to speak their language and I think that's important. That's exciting.”

A&E

LITERATURE animals slept on the ground floor.

She was horrified. “Convenient” doesn’t have to mean fast. I’ve spent 25 years on and off in Paris, where there’s a long tradition of food shops and markets where you can buy convenient slow food.

You write about what it means to give up the tastes of home and travel into the unknown. How does the assimilation of foreign foods affect our food culture?

I actually believe that because we’ve become so steeped in food culture, the foreign foods that we bring into our mainstream culture have become increasingly authentic.

When I was growing up, Chinese food here was nothing that you’d recognize in China, but as food of all kinds has become more available and less expensive, it’s also become more varied and complex. At the same time, people everywhere spend more time in the kitchen, so it’s more necessary to talk about food— and more fun.

CONSUMER GUIDE Sandra Gilbert will talk about her new book ‘The Culinary Imagination’ on Sept. 14 at Bookshop Santa Cruz.

Cooking Up Reality

Sandra Gilbert gets real about the truths and lies we tell ourselves about food BY WENDY MAYER-LOCHTEFELD

I

n her new book, The Culinary Imagination, Sandra Gilbert asks the question “What do we talk about when we talk about food?”

It turns out we talk about art, history, politics, literature, and of course, ourselves. She dives into the vast pool of ideas swirling around the culture of food, and reveals the ways it delights, surprises and disturbs us. Indeed, she graciously sets the table of her own life, and invites us to break bread with luminaries like Pablo Neruda, Wayne Thiebaud, and Gertrude Stein, the better to share her delectable blend of curiosity and insight. I recently

got the chance to talk with her in anticipation of her appearance at Bookshop Santa Cruz on Sunday, Sept. 14.

GT: How has the discussion of food culture evolved?

I’m amazed by the evolution in our thinking about food. Food and poetry was my original intent for the content of this book, but it expanded as I wrote it. We add food and stir when we write poetry, but also essays, novels, and history.

That stirring of food stirred around everything for me: food and the sacred, food and the secular; food politics engage us all the time. It

used to be, until about the 1920s, that it wasn’t polite to talk about food. When M.F.K. Fisher was growing up, people couldn’t even say food was delicious at the table. Now we talk about it endlessly.

Do you think there’s a place for compromise between slow food and fast food?

There’s a tension between our desire for convenience and a post-modern pastoral fantasy. My own mother used to say, when I was a kid, that she dreamed of having a farm, but she lived in Queens. When she did go back to Sicily, she stayed with cousins in a farm house where the

How do we maintain an ethical approach to food while feeding the world?

We have to be realistic. While I admire the aim not to eat anything your grandmother wouldn’t have eaten, my grandmother grew up outside of Moscow. At that time, the human diet for many was not the beautiful cornucopia that we like to think it was. That said, if you think about Michael Pollan’s hunting adventure or Barbara Kingsolver’s farm, they don’t mean to say we should all go do that. They give us the idea, the dream of fresh food, and the desire to pursue it any way we can. They write food fables for our time. Because of them, we go to farmers markets, cook better, and call out food corporations. But we shouldn’t sentimentalize the food of poverty. Much of the developing world lives in a sustenance culture, where the fantasy of self-sufficiency doesn’t apply. We have to talk about agricultural practices, even controversial ones, in order to feed people.

teven Juliano is no stranger to major label record deals. From 20052010, his band I Am Ghost was on the Epitaph Records roster, and his new band, Requiem, which was voted this year’s “Best Local Band” by GT readers, recently signed with Cleopatra Records. Requiem had several labels looking at them, but the band went with Cleopatra because, as Juliano explains, the Cleopatra staff is excited about the band, they have some ideas for it, and they’ve been in close contact with the band members. Juliano, who’s the singer and primary lyricist, says that was a big factor in choosing a label.

“I’ve seen [situations] where you get lost in the mix, or you get on a label and you don’t get as much attention as you’d like,” he says. “We wanted to make sure that we’re not going to be lost in the many bands on a label.”

Requiem’s debut album, The Unexplainable Truth, is set to be released on Oct. 28. One key benefit to having a major label behind

the band is the distribution and marketing that they can provide.

Blending heavy, metal- and punkinfluenced instrumentation with melodic hooks and catchy choruses, Requiem embraces elements of different genres without limiting itself to just one. The band—comprised of Juliano, Jacklyn Paulette of the Jackie Rocks Band and Stellar Corpses on vocals and guitar, Ryan Heggum on guitar and “screams,” Finn Stobbe on bass and Rick Siegfried on drums— regularly plays shows with punk bands, metal bands, Goth bands and power pop bands.

Ironically, Requiem has a bigger fanbase outside of Santa Cruz than here at home, and they play Los Angeles far more often than they play locally. A publicist once told Juliano that there’s not much of a market in the area for Warped Tourstyle bands. Juliano hopes Requiem can change that.

“Hopefully with a new album we can create something here in Santa Cruz,” he says. “Get more people to listen.”

Visitors can enjoy guided tours of the restoration shops where vintage and racing cars from the ’30s, ’40s, and ’50s, are revived to their glory days. For those interested in newer, techy marvels, there are more than a dozen electric cars including the newest Tesla model.

LOCAL BAND THE CAROLYN SILLS COMBO

Singer-songwriter Carolyn Sills is always mining the depths of the human experience to find the best way to write a killer song—even if the experience is not her own. Sometimes this means looking beyond the obvious and fixating on details that some might consider insignificant. Those are the things she finds truly fascinating.

SEPTEMBER 10-16, 2014 | GTWEEKLY.COM | SANTACRUZ.COM

“I love looking at what’s going on in the background,” she says. “There was a song written about a woman who was shot on stage by her ex-husband who was a sniper. I’ve been obsessed wondering, ‘What song was she singing?’

There’s the facts of the story—the who, what, where, why, when—but what about the little things on the fringe that turn it into something romantic or creepy? I’ve always been attracted to that kind of stuff.”

52

The Carolyn Sills Combo released their self-titled debut album last fall, in an attempt to provide the best possible showcase for the vocalist-guitarist’s unique storytelling.

“Our whole mission for the album was to capture the feel of our live show, to tell the stories of these songs within the broader picture of the Spaghetti Western/Americana landscape,” says Sills.

Her songs tell a series of imaginative stories which are fictional, and yet relatable at the same time.

“That’s big for me, writing in that manner,” she says. “With ‘Aces and Eights,’ for example, I’m picturing Wild Bill Hickok’s last moments on earth, that last card game when he got shot, and the feelings that evoked; and then relating that to an experience in my own life.” BRIAN PALMER INFO: 8 p.m. Saturday, Sept. 13. Don Quixote’s, 6275 Highway 9, Felton. $10. 603-2294.

WEDNESDAY 9/10 AMERICANA

KEITH GREENINGER Soul Connection, the latest album by local singer-songwriter Keith Greeninger (his seventh), is a laid-back contemplative roots record. On it, Greeninger does what he does best—mixing folk, country, blues, rock, and gentle introspective storytelling—and creates one of his deepest, most cohesive releases to date. He assembled members of Little Feat and Bonnie Raitt’s band to back him, after a successful $25,000 indiegogo campaign). AARON CARNES INFO: 7:30 p.m. Rio Theatre, 1205 Soquel Ave., Santa Cruz. $26.50/gen, $42/gold.

423-8209.

THURSDAY 9/11 JAZZ

WIL BLADES Wil Blades has proven to be one of the hardest-working jazz musicians in the world over the past decade or so. The B3 Hammond organ player—who has collaborated with jazz luminaries like Scott Amendola, Karl Denson and Billy Martin—formed his new trio so he could release a project of his own. Field

Notes, which came out a few weeks ago, is equal parts funktastic and electrifying, as it combines jazz, funk and R&B in an undeniable fashion. The record holds you in its sway from the start, so expect much of the same from the trio when they come to town.

BRIAN PALMER

INFO: 7 p.m. Kuumbwa Jazz, 320-2 Cedar St., Santa Cruz. $20/adv, $25/door. 427-2227.

TRIP-HOP

BOOSTIVE There’s a dark, moody and emotional presence entrenched within each of Boostive’s beats, which sets the group apart from many hip-hop acts. But that’s the thing; hip-hop is only part of their identity. These locals also fool around with experimental electronics, jazz and worldbeat. The beats are accented by live instrumentation, giving it an altogether warm, lush and trance-y sound. The vocals bounce between a dizzying lead rapper and their surreal female singer, who gives it a Portishead sound when it’s her turn. It’s the direction ’90s alt-rap could have gone in, with just the right amount of acid. AC INFO: 8:30 p.m. Crow’s Nest, 2218 E Cliff Drive, Santa Cruz. $5. 476-4560.

FRIDAY 9/12 INDIE

MARK EITZEL Though he’s most known for his work with SF indie outfit American Music Club, Mark Eitzel occasionally releases a solid solo album that is every bit as praiseworthy as his main group. His latest, 2012’s Don’t Be A Stranger, is one of those records. It’s a quiet, haunting album, Americana-influenced, but backed with some gorgeous, intimate production. He sings at almost a whisper. He calls it an attempt to make his own version of Harvest by Neil Young or Five Leaves Left by Nick Drake. What it ended up being was a quietly intense, soul-searching batch of tunes, which he made a year after a near-fatal heart attack. Leave it to a near-death experience to put things into perspective.

Founded in 2006 by Angelo Grova, of Michaelangelo Gallery, FashionART rounds up the latest offering from up-and-coming Bay Area designers, and serves to remind us that Santa Cruz, while it may not be the next Paris or New York, has no shortage of its own funky and fabulous styles.

Contemporary Brazilian favorite Bossacucanova adds another wave to the genre blending live instrumentation and electronics with traditional sounds to create music that pays heavy tribute to past masters while forging new ground.

ELIZA GILKYSON AND NINA GERBER Grammy-nominated singer and songwriter Eliza Gilkyson’s career has been an interesting ride. She has released nearly two dozen albums in the 45 years since her debut, Eliza ’69, but when you consider that it wasn’t until 1987 that she released her third album and started getting serious about making music her profession, it becomes clearer just how prolific she is.

FILM

DROP KICK The late James Gandolfini’s excellent performance is one of the few elements that feel authentic in ‘The Drop.’

SEPTEMBER 10-16, 2014 | GTWEEKLY.COM | SANTACRUZ.COM

Untrue Crime

58

Despite some good acting, ‘The Drop’ feels like it’s faking it BY RICHARD VON BUSACK

D

ennis Lahane’s short story “Animal Rescue,” published in the 2009 anthology Boston Noir, is the source for The Drop; it’s been transplanted from Dorchester to Brooklyn, and it’s graced with some powerful acting by the late James Gandolfini.

He is in a lot of the movie, as the namesake of a neighborhood bar called Cousin Marv’s. Marv used to own the place, but he got indebted to some Chechen gangsters. The bartender is Marv’s own placid, soft-witted cousin Bob (Tom Hardy), a quiet lug in a dingy sheepskin-collared denim jacket.

Bob has got a good heart and not

much brain, but he has the sense to look the other way when the thugs come in to harvest their money.

The title comes from an underground banking procedure— with little or no warning, the cash deposits from the rackets comes to rest for the night in the different safes of an ever-rotating list of “drop” bars. When it’s the Cousin Marv’s bar turn to hold the bag, a couple of tipped-off plastic-masked thugs try to hit the place up. The Chechens take appropriate revenge on the thief they catch. They make sure Marv and Bob are implicated in the killing, in case they feel like talking to the cops.

After a post-Christmas shift, Bob is walking home late and finds a wounded pit bull puppy dropped in a trash can. Nadia (Noomi Rapace) hears her trash can being looked through, and emerges. She’s done some animal rescue work, so she sews the pup up. Bob now has both a reason to live, in the form of a pooch, and a new female friend.

The connection between these two plots—the robbers regrouping for a second try, and the tentative friendship between Bob and Nadia—is a psycho called Eric Deeds (Matthias Schoenaerts).

He has Nadia under surveillance.

Deeds claims that the dog is his,

and he wants Bob to pay $10,000 for it.

Director Michaël R. Roskam (Bullhead ) knows the ropes: rather than constant sadism, he shows us a series of vulnerabilities probed, and escalating tension leading to a swift, conclusive act of violence.

He also knows how to manipulate the audience—no one wants to see a dog get it. The Drop is not in a rut, but it’s also not a movie that breaks new ground. The international cast is slightly off—Hardy, British, is supposed to be from Central European stock or something. The high toneless voice comes from nowhere, except the movies. There still isn’t any such a thing as a postMarlon Brando performance, and Hardy emulates Terry Malloy in On the Waterfront.

Rapace is supposed to be Russian.

She looks shell-shocked and scarred, the black eyes are hard as coal, and she holds your view when she licks some Dos Equis off her lips. But she doesn’t fit into the neighborhood either in accent or mannerisms. As Deeds, Schoenaerts, a Belgian actor who starred in Bullhead, is large and looming. In the role we probably needed something more of what Ray Liotta had in Something Wild—the ingratiating boy-who-never-grew-up quality of a grade-A psycho. When an actor plays this kind of role, he should be someone you want dead, but not dead quite yet. Schoenaerts is so abrasive that you want to accelerate the process.

The Drop has some dark-alley business in the sick-pink sodium-lit industrial backstreets of New York, a frozen dog park in January, and alleys with beat-up garage doors eaten artistically by salt corrosion. Mostly it’s framed as if for television—talking heads talking to each other. Lahane’s script makes you think of Philip Marlowe describing Hemingway as a writer who repeats things until they sound good; some of the atmosphere evaporates between the script and the mouths of the international cast.

THE DROP With Tom Hardy, Noomi Rapace, and James Gandolfini. Written by Dennis Lehane. Directed by Michaël R. Roskam. A Chernin Entertainment and Fox Searchlight Pictures release. Rated R. 106 minutes.

Rachel McAdams, Willem Dafoe, and Robin Wright co-star for director Anton Corbijn. (R) 122 minutes.

John Erick Dowdle (Quarantine, Devil) directs. (R) 93 minutes.

BOYHOOD Kudos to Richard Linklater for such a refreshingly audacious film. Linklater had the simple, yet brilliant idea to shoot a scripted story over a period of 12 years, allowing his cast—including his child protagonists—to age naturally onscreen. Ellar Coltrane (in the central role) was 7 years old when the film started shooting in 2002, 18 when it wrapped last year, and he’s compulsively watchable throughout.

It sounds like a stunt, but watching these characters grow up before our eyes (including adults Patricia Arquette and Ethan Hawke, both terrific, as the divorced parents), makes for a bold, moving, and utterly mesmerizing moviegoing experience. (R) 166 minutes. (****)—Lisa Jensen.

FRANK This oddball little comedy about a bizarre art-rock band occasionally achieves the hipster irony it strives for—but more often comes across as dysfunctional as its title character, a would-be musical genius in a giant, fake head he never takes off—ever. For all its quirkiness, there’s not much return for our investment of time. But at least Domhnall Gleeson is an engaging protagonist, and Michael Fassbender contributes some comic body language as the guy in the fake head.

(R) 95 minutes. (**1/2)—Lisa Jensen.

THE HUNDRED-FOOT JOURNEY Engaging performances—especially from the sublime Helen Mirren and Indian national treasure Om Puri—spice up this unsurprising, yet enjoyably romantic foodie film. The location is irresistible, a sun-drenched corner of the South of France where an upstart family-run Indian eatery sets up shop across the street from a venerable French restaurant.

Dreamy-eyed Manish Dayal and frisky Charlotte Le Bon make a charming romantic couple. And there’s plenty of good-looking food, from haute cuisine to vivid massala-spiced Indian dishes to simple French country cooking, presented with enough relish to make it all go down smoothly. Lasse Hallstrm directs. (PG) 122 minutes. (***)—Lisa Jensen.

THE IDENTICAL What if Elvis Presley’s twin brother had survived, but grown up as the adopted son of a hellfire evangelist? That seems

to be the premise of this Christian family drama about musically gifted twins—one becomes a rock idol, the other a rock impersonator—in a story that spans the Depression ‘30s and the rockin’‘50s to the Glam Rock ‘70s. Ashley Judd, Ray Liotta and Seth Green star; Blake Rayne plays both twins. (PG) 107 minutes.

IF I STAY Based on Gayle Forman’s bestselling YA novel, the story revolves around a teenage girl whose life literally passes before her eyes in a moment that changes things forever.

Chloe Grace Moretz stars as the heroine trying to determine if and how to go on with her life. Mireille Enos, Jamie Blackley, and Joshua Leonard co-star for director R. J. Cutler. (PG13) 106 minutes.

INNOCENCE After losing her mother, a teenage girl moves to Manhattan with her father and enrolls in a strange boarding school whose beautiful female staff harbors a dark secret.

Sophie Curtis, Kelly Reilly, Graham Phillips, and Linus Roache star in this horror drama adapted from the YA novel by Jane Mendelsohn. Hilary Brougher directs. (PG-13) 96 minutes.

LET’S BE COPS Jake Johnson and Damon Wayans Jr. star in this action comedy as buddies who dress up as cops for a costume party and become the toast of the neighborhood—until their ruse gets them involved with real-life mobsters, criminals, and police corruption. Luke Greenfield directs. (R) 104 minutes.

LIFE AFTER BETH Rom-com meets the zombie apocalypse in this farce about a young man (Dane Dehaan) whose joy when he learns his recently deceased girlfriend (Aubrey Plaza) is back goes a little cold when he finds out she’s now a member of the flesh-eating undead. Molly Shannon and John C. Reilly co-star for writerdirector Jeff Baena. (R) 91 minutes.

LIFE OF CRIME The Elmore Leonard novel The Switch is the basis for this dark caper comedy about a sleazy real estate developer (Tim Robbins) who opts not to pay the ransom when his wife (Jennifer Aniston) is kidnapped by dysfunctional would-be criminals John Hawkes and Yasiin Bey. Daniel Schechter directs. (R) 94 minutes.

MAGIC IN THE MOONLIGHT Woody Allen’s second comedy set in France is no Midnight In Paris. But there’s modest fun to be had in this tale of a misanthropic stage magician (Colin Firth) attempting to expose a spiritualist (Emma Stone) he believes is swindling wealthy American expats among the Cote d’Azur elite in the Jazz Age 1920s. Firth is wise enough not to try to imitate Allen’s famous mannerisms in the protagonist’s role, Simon McBurney is fun as his devilish sidekick, the scenery is gorgeous, and the period costumes worn by the great Eileen Atkins (as Firth’s grande dame aunt) are worth the price of admission. (PG-13) 97 minutes. (**1/2)—Lisa Jensen.

THE NOVEMBER MAN Pierce Brosnan stars as the hero of the Bill Granger espionage series, a skilled and deadly ex-CIA agent who comes out of retirement to protect a comely witness (Olga Kurylenko) in a conspiracy investigation. Luke Bracey, Bill Smitrovich, and Will Patton co-star for director Roger Donaldson (The Bank Job). (R) 108 minutes.

TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES In this mostly live-action reboot of the popular comic book series, New York City is in the grip of evildoers when four masked outcast brothers rise up out of the sewers to become heroes. Megan Fox stars as sympathetic, turtle-friendly girl reporter April O’Neil, and Will Arnett is her cameraman sidekick. Jonathan Liebesman directs. (PG-13) WHAT IF This lightweight rom-com from director Michael Dowse is lucky to have pair of attractive leads in Daniel Radcliffe and Zoe Kazan.

It’s adapted from a two-character play where dialogue counts for a lot, and conversation in the film is laced with postmodern irony, and often very funny self-deprecating humor. The premise may be tissuethin (potential soulmates try to just be friends because one of them already has a live-in sweetie), some of the narrative mood swings feel a bit forced, and even the dialogue occasionally fails big time, but the easy charm of the leads keeps us involved. PG-13. 98 minutes. (***)— Lisa Jensen.

FOOD & DRINK with potatoes and harissa aioli. The savvy kitchen has created a menu that flatters—adores—beer. So go and sip for yourself. There are more than 15 on tap at any given time. At $9 each, these items are geared toward a twenty-to-thirtysomething afterwork crowd of young professionals who love beer but insist on something non-boring to go with their brew.

SMALL BITES Pork belly, crisp on top and bottom, lusciously fatty and flavorful in the middle. Presented with a fluff to something in the key of frisée, plus topnotes of Kalamata, capers and intensely flavored tomatoes. This recent appetizer at Soif ($14) was both substantial and deliciously worth every penny. Nice to have chef Mark Denham asserting his style. God, I love this place, especially with a minerally glass of Hungarian Furmint Sec in my non-fork-holding hand.

The kitchen at Ristorante Avanti has noticeable sparkle. Lunch last week of local sea bass on a garlic-intensive bed of zesty shell and pole beans made me smile all day.

Lúpulo: Doing It Right Beer worship, great food and a secret weapon at new hops spot BY CHRISTINA WATERS

K

ayla McIntyre at Lúpulo is exactly the kind of pro-active front counter personality you want in your store. When we came in and started asking questions about the menu in this newish craft beer house, McIntyre had plenty of answers. She not only explained the various styles of beers we were looking at, she also poured us samples to illustrate her point. She walked us through the menu, took our orders and made us feel welcome—all without missing a beat, or neglecting other patrons in

the process. Given the smart, cando quality of our welcome, we were inclined to love Lúpulo (Spanish for “hops”) even before the first bite.

From the hefty selection of beers on tap we chose 5-ounce pours of a Belgian blonde-style Evil Twin Joey Pepper, and a Sante Adairius 1903 lager. Our orders were as solid as McIntyre promised. Spiced tacos of slow-roasted pork pibil-style, slathered with anchiote sauce and purple cabbage for Jack; and a sensuous, gooey, Oaxaqueño-style version of a grilled cheese sandwich

for me. My pressed sandwich contained oozing layers of pesto, queso Oaxaca, chèvre, plus arugula and avocado. Crisp toasted bread provided the crunchy contrast. Total yum, as was the trio of pork tacos.

On the side was the house secret weapon—pickled veggies, including an incendiary salsa of onions and habañero with the tacos. I adored— no, really—my pickled zucchini and carrots. Even more because these spicy, zippy flavors were perfectly tuned to the rounded flavors of the beers. Next time I'll try the omelette

Richard Alfaro and his crew are “picking like mad” right now. “We started harvesting last Wednesday for sparkling wine,” Alfaro told me.

“This week, we picked our first Pinot, and now it’s every day.” And that was a week ago! The winemaker echoed what others are saying: “This is the earliest we have ever picked—and it all looks very good.” Fingers crossed!

WINE OF THE WEEK That would be the crisp, refreshing orange wine (aka skin-crushed Pinot Gris) from Beauregard Vineyards.

This baby saw less than a year in neutral oak—barrels that have been much-used and hence are not as likely to overlay the wine's crisp tannic quality with a cushion of butter or vanilla. The result is tart and instantly likeable. At 11 percent alcohol, it is indeed an easysipping “breakfast wine” that adores oysters, green olives, cheeses and warm summer afternoons. $30ish.

I’d say to run on up to the redwooddraped tasting room at Pine Flat Road and pick up a bottle while you’re tasting the handiwork of winemaker Ryan Beauregard.

hen you taste Soquel Vineyardsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; extraordinary 2012 Partnersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; Reserve Pinot Noir, you will know why it won a Double Gold in June at the 2014 San Francisco International Wine Competition. Yes, Pinot lovers everywhere, this beautiful garnet wine scored a whopping 98 points at the competition, and, considering the huge number of varietals entered this year, this is a coup indeed. So praise and congratulations to winery partners Peter and Paul Bargetto and Jon Morgan. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m glad they made 200 cases.

This crazy-good Santa Cruz Mountains Pinot ($50) has everything going for it. A blend of 14 clones from three Santa Cruz Mountains vineyardsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;estate, Lester Family Vineyards in Aptos and Coast Grade Vineyard in Bonny Doonâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;the end result is complex aromas of dark fruit, and big bold flavors of strawberry, cherry and cranberry, with some earthy mushroom and clove. Only the finest grapes are selected for this prize wine, and only handmade French oak barrels are chosen for ageing.

So if you think you can handle this deliciously seductive Pinot Noir, I suggest you head to Soquel Vineyards to try some. As one master sommelier put it about Pinot, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sex in a glass.â&#x20AC;?

That just about sums it up.

GA M E TIM E Food and Drink SpecialsMon- Sunday

omino’s may have the word “pizza” in its title, but those doughy, calorie-rich wheels on their menu are a far cry from the original pizzas served in Naples, Italy. Neapolitan pizzas have a thin, almost cracker-like dough, and stick to very simple, basic toppings. The other piece of the traditional pizza puzzle is the wood-fired oven, which cooks faster and at a much higher temperature than standard ovens.

Pat and Mariah Flanagan modeled their Scotts Valley pizzeria Wood Fire Woodie after a Neapolitan-style pizzeria. The couple started out selling pizza as a catering company in 2007, but opened the restaurant in 2012, advertising the wood-fired oven right there in the title. We interviewed Pat about their business.

GT: What’s so great about woodfired pizza?

Pat Flanagan: It’s the only way to go as far as pizza, ’cause you have the intense heat of the wood. It’s nice to get that char on there from the wood fire. You’re also going to get a slight smoky flavor to it. Once the dough hits the really hot heat then it quickly expands, and you get that

really nice crust. There’s a lot of others out there that use gas woodfired ovens. It’s not the same thing.

You’re not getting any intensity of just using wood.

Are you an avid surfer? Those pizza names (“The Barrel,” “Hang Ten”) suggest you are.

I’ve been surfing since I was 12. I used to surf over here all the time.

I grew up in Los Gatos, but I would always surf in Santa Cruz.

Is the Kona Gold basically your version of a Hawaiian?

Yeah. It’s our top seller as far as type of pizza. We use applewoodsmoked bacon. We always use fresh pineapples. We always marinate our onions too that are on the pizza.

What about your sauce?

We hand-crush all the tomatoes.

They’re harvesting all the tomatoes right now. We get them at their peak ripeness and we have it throughout the whole year. We do some garlic and other spices, but it’s always fresh. It’s not too strong.

+ RISA’S STARS BY RISA D’ANGELES A DIFFERENT REVOLUTION Aries Moon late Wednesday and Thursday. We think new thoughts and initiate new ideas. Sun in Virgo with Saturn in Scorpio help disciples to create orderly structures to anchor and bring forth new ideas.

Stabilizing Taurus moon Friday and Saturday. We anchor new ideas into form and matter, like seeds planted in the soil. We tend them, waiting for green shoots to emerge. Like the gestating Virgo Sun Madonna, awaiting the birth of the holy child, the Soul, the new light at winter solstice. Mercury and Chiron converse about what hurts and what heals.

Saturday is a complex day with Mercury (communication), Mars (action!) and Uranus (revolution). Mercury in Libra is opposite Uranus in Aries. Oppositions (recognizing something new appearing over there somewhere) eventually synthesize. Mercury in

Libra calls for Right Action and Right Relations, especially with money. Uranus in Aries—the revolution this time must be different. Also on Saturday, Mars enters Sagittarius. Where are we going, what are our goals, where’s justice, where’s the mountain, do we have good shoes?

Sunday Venus trines Pluto—in-depth assessment of money, values and resources.

Gemini moon Monday; we talk a lot, tending to tasks in gardens and neighborhoods. Cancer Moon Tuesday and Wednesday; we nurture and nourish. The stars and planets remind us.

Note: William Meader, esoteric author and international teacher, will be speaking on “The Soul of Humanity Evolving Through Crisis” at Meditation Mount, 7pm, Friday, Sept. 12.

ARIES Mar21–Apr20

LIBRA Sep23–Oct22

Speak carefully and harmoniously to loved ones. Realize you may be more critical at this time, which includes self-criticism. Allow others the benefit of understanding you. Always give and ask for explanations, then listen carefully. What you know as real and what you feel (frustration, anger, impatience, etc.) may at first be at odds. Wait a while before acting. Then you can choose the right course of action. Then your heart opens.

Librans always need a social group around where everyone recognizes and loves them. And then there are times when you feel out of place, the odd one, not heard, seen, listened to or understood. During the month, through inner communication and wisdom, you will assess the many paths you’ve taken, and realize new needs. In between, attempting to stabilize a new sense of self you will also be very practical. You will also begin to tithe to those in need.

Esoteric Astrology as news for week Sept. 10- 17, 2014

TAURUS Apr21–May21 Events dissolve, are created, retreat, happen, fall apart and re-emerge again—all defining the breakdown of the past and a defining of the future. Beware of stepping across boundaries where uncontrolled power is an issue.

In communications have Right Relations within so Right Relations of others can also be summoned. You teach us to maintain the highest ethics, morals, values and intentions.

You know how one begins a project is also how it ends.

SCORPIO Oct23–Nov21 As you redefine yourself, there may be conflicts and collisions with other people’s ideas of who you are.

There may be difficulty communicating and/or being understood. Before speaking, consider your words, intentions, attitude and tone, have the intention for goodwill, and seek to become a “harmonizer.” These are important values to remember and uphold.

SAGITTARIUS Nov22–Dec20 During the month of traveling here and there, you seek a new base of operation, and wonder about your true foundations. You realize your family heritage has given you an identity propelling you forward into new territory. Do not be concerned if chaos is your companion. Chaos is the first step toward greater harmony. Chaos contains the seeds of creativity, provides excitement, experiences and shreds outworn ways of being. Carve a tall sturdy walking stick.

CANCER Jun21–Jul20 New ideas, revolutionary, unusual and revelatory are being impressed upon your mind. You’re therefore learning at an accelerated pace, as if in a school, but actually it’s that you’re concentrating on the value of here and now. There’s extra energy being offered you from Jupiter, which is expanding your heart. You’re loving more, becoming strong, resourceful, intuitive.

Your garden is calling. You are to feed the world.

LE0 Jul21–Aug22 It’s important for Leos to always be recognized and praised. The secret of helping Leo evolve is other people’s acknowledgement of their gifts and talents. While hoping to not be seen, we must say you’ve become more attractive and nurturing, flowing with generosity. You offer support when the need arises and tend to those more vulnerable. You keep secrets, prefer working alone, while empowering everyone along the way. You’re a Pathfinder.

VIRGO Aug23–Sep22 The sun is shining on your gifts and creative abilities and all you’ve wanted to do feels like it can come true. It’s your birthday month. Know that you have everything you need in terms of energy, resources and time. Whereas much has been external, notice you’re beginning to withdraw into yourself. Expansion occurs internally for a year. Creating a time of composure, reflection, contemplation and peace.

CAPRICORN Dec21–Jan20 Subtle shifts and changes continue in your life, growing ever more present as each new light of day unfolds.

Your foundations are being quietly transformed as you become what you were born to be. Tend to things financial. Don’t think unlimited funds are available. A serious plan must be applied to money earned and spent. Notice soon a return to previous realities. Create tasks and disciplines with family; these sustain everyone.

AQUARIUS Jan21–Feb18 You may feel that all progress is stalled; movements forward take two steps back. This is not failure. It’s a review, revisiting and revisioning that must occur. It’s also the energies under which you experience the coming autumn season. In this Virgo month you are soon to become Persephone, moving underground. Even if often out and about in the world prepare for a simultaneous inner experience of solitude, retreat and contemplation.

PISCES Feb19–Mar20 Something comes to rest and perhaps completion in the coming weeks. You then prepare for new activities that define the rest of the year. Notice all thoughts, impressions, ideas and intuitions. They provide subtle signs and information concerning your next steps.

Interactions with loved ones will be loving yet disciplined, kind yet, structured. Eliminate all that’s unnecessary, for soon it will be time to move on. No sadness.

You shop here for both home and clients?

Yes, I specialize in using local ingredients and I’m here almost daily. With produce, I try and stay organic with the “dirty dozen.”

Shopper’s is one-stop shopping for me: I can get gourmet products — they have all kinds of oils — pretty amazing spices, really great selections of cheeses and in small sizes, plus gluten-free and cutting-edge healthy items. I believe every local bread bakery is represented here. This is the one store I can shop knowing I will always get quality and at a good price point. It’s important to get the “best bang” for my buck.

Any particular cuisine you enjoy cooking? I just catered the Chardonnay 2. During summer it could be chicken or fresh seafood with salsa, Asian-style meatball appetizers, little Italian meat skewers, watermelon fetamint skewers, and grilled peach burrata basil crostini. Also fresh smoothies — I like mixing savory with sweet — using kale, spinach, basil, mint, apple, peach, yogurt, and protein powder. For myself, it’s mostly salads — Shopper’s produce is so great — but also grilled meats, corn, and vegetables. I love how many work people here, and they all seem to enjoy each other and their jobs at Shopper’s.

You like the environment? It has a family atmosphere. Ambiance in stores and restaurants is important to me. The butchers start my day. I come in early around, 7:30 a.m., and they’re always in a good mood; they’re friendly and know their stuff. They actually break down all their meats and it’s always fresh. I need to be able to trust the source, the people who provide for me and my clients. I prefer shopping local, and here the people are friendly and you never wait very long at the registers. From gourmet dinners to backyard barbecues, Shopper’s has all the items you need — and reasonably priced.
