ROB BREZSNY FREE WILL ASTROLOGY Week of May 6 ARIES Mar21–Apr19

LIBRA Sep23–Oct22

Benedictine monks observe the Latin motto Laborare est Orare. The 19th-century abbot Maurus Wolter interpreted these words to mean "work is worship" or "work is prayer." He was trying to impress upon his fellow monks that the work they did was not a grudging distraction from their service to God, but rather at the heart of their devotion. To do their tasks with love was a way to express gratitude for having been blessed with the gift of life. I propose that you experiment with this approach in the coming weeks, even if your version is more secular.

What would it be like to feel contentment with and appreciation for the duties you have been allotted?

According to the three science fiction films collectively known as The Matrix, we humans suffer from a fundamental delusion. What we think is real life is actually a sophisticated computer simulation. Intelligent machines have created this dream world to keep us in suspended animation while they harvest our energy to fuel their civilization. Now as far as I can tell, this scenario isn't literally true. But it is an apt metaphor for how many of us seem to be half-asleep or under a spell, lost in our addiction to the simulated world created by technology. I bring this to your attention, Libra, because now is a favorable time to diminish the hold that the metaphorical Matrix has on you. What can you do to at least partially escape your bondage?

(Hint: A little more contact with nature could do the trick.)

TAURUS Apr20–May20 Here's one of the best things you can do for your mental and physical health: Withdraw your attention from the life that lies behind you, and be excited about the life that stretches ahead of you. Forget about the past, and get wildly inventive as you imagine the interesting future you will create for yourself. Forgive everyone who has offended you, and fantasize about the fun adventures you'll go on, the inspiring plans you'll carry out, and the invigorating lessons you hope to learn.

GEMINI May21–June20 In the children's book The Little Engine That Could, a little blue engine volunteers to pull a long chain of train cars up a steep hill, even though it's not confident it has the power to do so. As it strains to haul the heavy weight, it recites a mantra to give itself hope: "I think I can, I think I can, I think I can." The story ends happily.

The little blue engine reaches the top of the hill with its many cars in tow, and is able to glide down the rest of the way. As you deal with your own challenge, Gemini, I recommend that you use an even more forceful incantation. Chant this: "I know I can, I know I can, I know I can."

CANCER Jun21–Jul22 Here's a confession: I have taken a vow to foster beauty, truth, love, justice, equality, tolerance, creativity, playfulness, and hope. To do this work is one of my life goals. I approach it with the devotion of a monk and the rigor of a warrior. Does that mean I ignore difficulty and suffering and cruelty? Of course not. I'm trying to diminish the power of those problems, so I sure as hell better know a lot about them. On the other hand, my main focus is on redemption and exaltation. I prefer not to describe in detail the world's poisons, but rather to provide an antidote for them. Even if you don't normally share my approach, Cancerian, I invite you to try it for the next two weeks. The astrological time is right.

LE0 Jul23–Aug22

The hill where I take my late afternoon hikes is teeming with the six-petaled purple wildflower known as the elegant cluster-lily. Every one of them—and there are hundreds—lean hard in the direction of the sun in the west. Should I deride them as conformists that follow the law of the pack? Should I ridicule them for their blind devotion? Or should I more sensibly regard them as having a healthy instinct to gravitate toward the life-giving light? I'll go with the latter theory. In that spirit, Leo, I urge you to ignore the opinions of others as you turn strongly toward the sources that provide you with essential nourishment.

VIRGO Aug23–Sep22 Am I reading the astrological omens correctly? I hope so. From what I can tell, you have been flying under the radar and over the rainbow. You have been exploiting the loopholes in the big bad system and enjoying some rather daring experiments with liberation. At this point in the adventure, you may be worried that your lucky streak can't continue much longer. I'm here to tell you that it can. It will. It must. I predict that your detail-loving intelligence will paradoxically guide you to expand your possibilities even further.

SCORPIO Oct23–Nov21 In the coming weeks, you may be as alluring and intriguing and tempting as you have been in a long time.

I suggest you capitalize on this advantage. Proceed as if you do indeed have the power to attract more of the emotional riches you desire. Assume that you are primed to learn new secrets about the arts of intimacy, and that these secrets will make you even smarter and more soulful than you already are. Cultivate your ability to be the kind of trusted ally and imaginative lover who creates successful relationships.

SAGITTARIUS Nov22–Dec21 Physicist Frank Wilczek won a Nobel Prize for his research into quarks, the tiny particles that compose protons and neutrons. The guy is breathtakingly smart.

Here's one of his operating principles: "If you don't make mistakes, you're not working on hard enough problems. And that's a big mistake." Let's enshrine his advice as your meditation, Sagittarius. I think you're strong enough and brave enough to go hunting for some new super-rich dilemmas. Yes, they may lead you to commit some booboos. But they will also stretch your intelligence beyond its previous limits, giving you a more vigorous understanding of the way the world works.

CAPRICORN Dec22–Jan19 In 1934, Capricorn baseball player Dizzy Dean was named the Most Valuable Player after winning 30 games. It was a feat that no National League pitcher has repeated ever since. After Dean retired, he was inducted into the Hall of Fame. Never shy about acknowledging his own prowess, he declared that "if you can do it, it ain't bragging." It is in this spirit that I invite you to freely expound on your talents and accomplishments in the coming week. You won't be boasting. You will simply be providing information. And that will ultimately result in you being offered an interesting new opportunity or two.

AQUARIUS Jan20–Feb18 There has rarely been a better time than now to refine the art of being your own mommy or daddy. You're finally ready to take over from the parental voices in your head and assume full responsibility for raising yourself the rest of the way. What do you want to be when you grow up? You may feel a giddy sense of freedom as it becomes clear that the only authority who has the right to answer that question is you.

PISCES Feb19–Mar20 The universe has always played tricks on you. Some have been so perplexing that you've barely understood the joke. Others have been amusing but not particularly educational. Now I sense a new trend in the works, however.

I suspect that the universe's pranks are becoming more comprehensible. They may have already begun to contain hints of kindness. What's the meaning of this lovely turn of events? Maybe you have finally discharged a very old karmic debt. It's also conceivable that your sense of humor has matured so much that you're able to laugh at some of the crazier plot twists. Here's another possibility: You are cashing in on the wisdom you were compelled to develop over the years as you dealt with the universe's tricks.

Homework: No one can make you feel any emotion unless you agree to feel it. You are the sovereign of what happens inside you. Explain why at FreeWillAstrology.com. © Copyright 2015

if that is the only â&#x20AC;&#x153;alternativeâ&#x20AC;? radio model.

Both stations had superb music libraries and knowledgeable programmers who knew their genre inside and out. All that got sacrificed for the almighty buck and NPR was the answer to everything ... except the loyalty of us who had subscribed and listened and helped with fundraising drives for decades prior to the sellout to NPR. I listened to â&#x20AC;&#x153;Vinyl Jungle,â&#x20AC;? which became â&#x20AC;&#x153;Rhythm Afrique,â&#x20AC;? on Friday nights for almost 30 years, and then it was killed off â&#x20AC;Ś shame on KUSP! I used to love the option to choose between four wonderful stations: KZSC, KUSP, KAZU and KKUP, supported them all

with my money because I loved the music and the programmers. We loved what made KUSP unique seven days a week, the wonderful music ... now all we get is a few hours on the weekends with local hosts, and a few hours of world music you won't find on any commercial station anywhere.

You all forgot who supported the station from day one, and then you broke our hearts and wonder why we don't support you anymore, myself included.

Make it all local, all volunteer â&#x20AC;Ś and you may just find the â&#x20AC;&#x153;magicâ&#x20AC;? of your community again. â&#x20AC;&#x201D; EILEEN SUNDET

THAT’S WILD As wild salmon populations dwindle, farmed salmon is spawning health and environmental concerns.

The realities of farmed versus wild salmon BY ANDREW STEINGRUBE

‘

I

s the salmon on the menu wild or farmed?” my patrons often ask me at the local fine dining restaurant where I work.

This is what doctors must feel like when they have to deliver the bad news: “Our salmon is organically farmed,” I say. The reaction that typically follows on my guest’s face is one usually reserved for the most unpleasant of experiences.

Why such a negative and visceral reaction to a farmed fish?

Perhaps because as delicious as the highly in-demand fish may be, both wild-caught and farmed fish come with an impact on the health of our oceans, the fish population, and the humans who are ordering them off menus all over the world.

Over the last couple of decades, the practice of farming fish, or aquaculture, has increased exponentially. Farmed Atlantic salmon production in particular saw a more than 30-fold increase between 1987 and 2012, according to the Food and Agriculture

Organization of the United Nations. This increase comes at a time when wild fish stocks have plummeted rapidly (just ask any local salmon fisherman), a trend that is likely to continue.

This makes Americans’ deeply dissonant attitude toward salmon even more troubling: we love to consume it, but many of us hate to have it farmed. Rife with chemical and environmental concerns, does farmed salmon deserve its fishy reputation, or is it a viable alternative to the diminishing

SANTACRUZ.COM | GTWEEKLY.COM | MAY 6-12, 2015

The Salmon Debate

supply of wild-caught salmon?

From a nutritional perspective, both farmed and wild salmon are loaded with protein. But, according to the USDA, farmed salmon has about twice the fat of its wild relatives (27g versus 13g per serving—wild fish do exercise more after all), and thus contains more calories and saturated fat. While farmed salmon contains slightly more omega-3 fatty acids, it also contains a much higher number of omega-6 acids—the omega6:omega-3 ratio is about three times higher in farmed salmon, compared to wild, which many scientists believe could drive an increase in inflammation and play a role in chronic diseases. Wild salmon contains more vitamins and minerals than farmed salmon though, including iron, calcium, potassium, and zinc, according to the USDA. The differences in taste are distinct as well. Wild salmon, though more expensive, has a leaner, firmer, more steaky texture, and a stronger, more “ocean-like” flavor. The taste of farmed salmon is often described as milder and more delicate. But even high-end fine dining restaurants feature the farmed version, like renowned fish chef Eric Ripert, who serves farmed salmon at his New York restaurant Le Bernardin.

Just because it tastes good, though, doesn’t necessarily mean we should be putting it in our bodies, or fueling its demand with our wallets. The profound differences between wild and farmed salmon go much deeper than the plate—to the environments in which they are raised. Farmed salmon are most commonly grown and held in the ocean in open-net pens, with farms being comprised of several pens anchored next to each other, usually near the coast and in sheltered bays. These farms can be the size of multiple football fields and hold up to a million fish.

Because of these close quarters, illness is common, so they are often given antibiotics, in addition to growth hormones. >13 Because wild salmon live

population numbers dwindle.

Salmon farms are working to improve their feed conversion ratios, with some switching to more vegetable-based feed—but this could lead to less omega-3 fatty acid levels, a major reason why salmon is so healthy and desirable in the first place. There is even a Canadian company that has created a GMO salmon (cue squeamishness now) which grows twice as fast even though it eats 10 percent less food and is heartier and more-disease resistant than other farmed salmon.

Getting a grasp on the complex issue of salmon farming is like trying to grab a fish out of the water with your bare hands: slippery. But worldwide fish fervor and demand for seafood—driven primarily by U.S., Japan and Europe—is skyrocketing at a time when wild supply is diminishing.

So what are humans to do?

There is a glimmer of hope on the horizon for the future of safe and responsible fish farming. The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) has established a committee called the Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC). Their main goal is to create and uphold sustainability standards for fish farming all across the globe. For a salmon farm to be ASC certified, it must meet strict standards with respect to all aspects of fish farming including water quality, biosecurity, pollution, escaped fish, contaminants, parasites and disease, feed conversion, and transparency of farming practices.

All of the world’s top producers of farmed salmon have signed on to uphold these standards and aim to be compliant by 2020.

The Monterey Bay Seafood Watch program, a leading voice in seafood sustainability, lists nine “best choice” designations for salmon—which includes five farmed sources and four wildcaught. They also designate seven “good alternatives” and five to “avoid”—all of which are farmed in net pens. Visit seafoodwatch. org for more information on all different types of fish and farmed seafoods and their varying degrees of environmental impact.

in the open ocean and eat a natural diet, they contain much fewer contaminants than farmed salmon. In particular, compounds known as PCBs—polychlorinated biphenyl—which may cause cancer and other health problems are significantly higher in farmed salmon. The issue gets even murkier though, because the FDA (Food & Drug Administration) deems these contaminants in farmed salmon to be at a safe level, whereas the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) disagrees. And, depending on the location and practices of each salmon farm, these contaminant levels vary widely.

On the macro level, pollution from salmon farms can have a significant negative impact on the environment, starting with the excess feed and fish feces produced by salmon farms, which not only saturate the pen in much higher amounts than would ever occur in the wild, but also pollute the surrounding ocean. Another issue is the spread of various salmon diseases—especially a parasite known as sea lice that can threaten entire populations. Parasites and other diseases can be kept in check by administering antibiotics and pesticides, but what impact do these chemicals have on the surrounding ecosystem? And what if a fish (or thousands of fish) escape from a pen? They can not only spread disease to the wild populations, but also compete with them for food and habitat. When a farmed Atlantic salmon and a wild Pacific salmon breed, you get the salmonid equivalent of a pony: an infertile halfling that only further dilutes the wild population. Some studies have found a correlation between salmon farms and decreased local wild populations, but this is confounded by the fact that wild populations are also dwindling in places where there are no salmon farms.

Something else people may want to know is that farmed salmon are fed compounds that turn their flesh pink like a wild salmon, as well as fish meal pellets partially made from forage fish like anchovies and sardines, which are themselves seeing worldwide

Under Joe Decker’s theocratic law, shrimp, oysters, scallops, winkles and clams would become a controlled substance. Eating or peddling shellfish of any kind would render the guilty felonious, fined—$666,000 to be exact— and sent to the slammer.

“Pretty harsh,” he concedes with a shrug, “but at least it’s not the death penalty.”

In a heavier-handed take on Leviticus, Matt McLaughlin, a reclusive Orange County lawyer, submitted the “Sodomite Suppression Act” for the 2016 state ballot. It invokes unabashed fire-and-brimstone Old Testament fury, calling to legalize killing anyone guilty of “the abominable crime against nature known as buggery, called also sodomy.” Or, in less anachronistic terms, being gay. McLaughlin suggests a $1 million fine, a decade in jail or exile from the state for even a remote interest in anal pleasure. The crime of sodomy itself, he deems, should be punishable by “bullets to the head or any other convenient method.”

McLaughlin’s violent proscription against homosexuality hasn’t a chance in holy hell of landing on the ballot. But it has sparked a serious discussion about reforming California’s initiative process, which lets any registered voter with $200 and the time of day to propose a ballot measure.

It has also inspired satirical spin-offs, turning an esteemed expression of direct democracy into a platform for high-level trolling.

Decker, a San Jose native who works as a nature photographer, submitted his crustaceancriminalizing “Shellfish Suppression Act” a day after April Fool’s. Earlier that same week, activistauthor Charlotte Laws filed the “Intolerant Jackass Act,” mandating sensitivity training for anyone convicted of “the abominable crime known as prejudice against sexual orientation, called also gay-bashing.”

“I think it takes the power away from [McLaughlin], to subject him to ridicule,” says Laws, a spirited pundit known for her high-profile campaign to outlaw revenge porn. “I wanted to call him out and this seemed like the best way to do that, to use speech against speech.”

Whether penned as parody or otherwise, initiative proposals are no joke. By law, they have to be treated seriously, setting in motion the momentous gears of government. Citizen-

Toxic Classrooms Watsonville educators want stricter rules limiting pesticides near schools BY MATTHEW RENDA

A

s 10 million pounds of pesticides are being dropped on fields around Watsonville—many of them near schools—distressed parents say their children are victims of “environmental racism.”

A recent study shows that 46 percent of the schools in Monterey County are within a quarter mile of sprayed pesticides, as are seven schools in the Pajaro Valley Unified School District, which includes Watsonville.

“Our farm workers are being sprayed with this poison in their fields,” says Ann Lopez, executive director for the Center for Farmworker Families.

“Their greatest dream is to have their children get educated so they can get out of farm work, and then their kids get sprayed while they’re at school.”

On Cesar Chavez Day, March 31, a coalition of teachers, concerned parents and officials rallied at Watsonville Plaza and called for stricter regulation of hazardous chemicals around schools. The group asked that farmers notify schools one week in advance of applying pesticides, prohibit the use of pesticides within a mile of schools and forbid spraying during school hours.

The 2014 study of pesticides near schools by the state’s Department of Agriculture found that 64 schools— or 46 percent of Monterey County schools—are within a quarter mile of some form of pesticide applications on agricultural land, and kids there have the highest level of exposure of any in the state. The study didn’t break out Santa Cruz County schools;

however, it found that Latino students are 3.2 times more likely to attend a school near the heaviest use of pesticides.

Watsonville residents say they are suffering the same effects.

“Of the 32 school sites we have in our district, about seven of them are located directly adjacent to fields,” says Francisco Rodriguez, a special education teacher for the Pajaro Valley Unified School District. “We are really concerned, and not just because of the study.”

Rodriguez says applications of pesticides have increased and the notifications given to schools have decreased recently. “[In the] last couple of months, there have been some applications of which we have not been notified,” he says. “This needs >16

Here is what clients are saying about All Pets:

“Everyone at All Pets, from the veterinarians, vet techs, and clinic staff, is trustworthy, knowledgeable and friendly! It is always a pleasant experience going there for me and my cat.”

-Gabriela P, Capitola

1226 Soquel Avenue #B Santa Cruz - 831.425.0945 go to: www.allpetsvetclinic.com

to be more far-reaching. We need a state law, federal regulations or a county ordinance. It needs to have some teeth.”

The two counties produced about $5 billion worth of crops in 2013, which amounts to nearly a quarter of the Golden State’s overall production.

In 2010, the latest year for available data, nearly 10 million pounds of pesticides were dropped in North Monterey and South Santa Cruz County. About a quarter of the schools in Monterey County are within agricultural operations that apply anywhere from 319 to 29,000 pounds of pesticides—by far the most in California.

“We are talking about thousands of pounds of this stuff,” says Lopez.

“The children are being exposed through drift. It’s no accident this is happening in areas where Latinos are going to school. It’s a classic example of environmental racism.”

The California Department of Public Health says Latino children are 46 percent more likely than white children to attend schools with any pesticides of concern applied within a quarter mile, and 96 percent more likely than white children to attend schools where there is heavy pesticide use in proximity.

“The system exploits these people,” Lopez says. “It’s a human rights disaster.”

At the rally, California State Sen. Bill Monning (D-Carmel) said he has begun to work with legislators to draft potential solutions.

“Historically, this has been a problem,” Monning says. “There has been a de facto respect for a 500-foot buffer zone, but it’s not codified. It has been practiced and respected by the local ag community, but the standards can be codified in state regulation so everybody is aware of the rules.”

But Rodriguez says 500 feet is not enough. He describes a scene at

Watsonville’s Amesti Elementary School that took place a year and a half ago, where the teachers and children noticed an acrid smell and had itchy eyes. The local fire department was called, and it was determined to be a result of drift from a local pesticide application.

“It caused unneeded panic among both teachers and parents,” Rodriguez says. “If we had been notified, we could have avoided the whole scenario.”

Monning says he has been involved in conversations with officials in the California Department of Pesticide Regulation.

“I’m not prepared to comment on details like the distance of the setback, but it is fair to say we are involved in a process that seems to be moving forward,” Monning says.

“The community advocates and last year’s study have galvanized greater attention which has culminated in a commitment to get something done.”

Santa Cruz’s local public radio station KUSP-FM at 88.9 on the dial is heading down a short runway toward a big cliff.

That’s how treasurer John Morrison described the station’s plight Monday night at the Aptos Community Services Center to a heated audience of 75 people including volunteers, staff members, board members and the community.

With more than $700,000 in debt and a license and signal valued at about $1 million, Morrison advised the Board to vote to negotiate with a public radio classical music conglomerate to sell the signal to them, which they did after almost four hours of discussion.

But it came with a pinch of hope. If the public comes up with money to cut the debt, or another plan to keep the programming local, the station could pull out of a deal with

the University of Southern California-based Classical Public Radio Network, which now broadcasts classical music on San Francisco’s KDFC-FM at 104.9 FM and other stations down the coast.

“I just don’t want to see the control go out of the community,” says Rachel Goodman, former host of the show “Talk of the Bay,” who, like a large number of loyal volunteers, was let go when the station focused more on buying programming from National Public Radio.

“I didn’t even know this was a local station,” says one man who was attending his first board meeting after hearing about the possible loss on commercial talk radio station KSCO-AM. “I only heard NPR national programs.”

That was the rub for management, who found in surveys that listeners contributed as much as $500,000 a year to the station, most of it during

telethon breaks during NPR shows, according to the board’s director Kelly O’Brien. Local shows fizzled out, and the board claims they were too expensive to produce, even though hosts were mostly volunteers.

The station paid $500,000 annually in salaries, $100,000 of which went to consultants and engineers. It paid more than $200,000 annually to NPR, although it has been in arrears on those payments.

“You should tell them that KKUP in Cupertino has been running for 45 years without paying a programmer,” another former host, “Sleepy” John Sandidge, said outside the meeting.

He, Goodman and others would like to see the station return to community broadcasts.

KUSP is hemmed-in by Cal State Monterey’s KAZUFM at 90.3, which also broadcasts NPR programs and offers almost no student

programming. Deals to work with KAZU have failed, managers say. That station also offers lower prices to its sponsors, competing heavily against the Santa Cruz signal.

Many in the audience were shocked by the fact that they didn’t know about the dire situation until they read it in newspapers. Good Times had reported on its talks with Los Angeles station KCRW-FM, which fell through.

O’Brien told them the board thought their message was clear that they needed money during fundraisers and they “didn’t want to cry wolf” by broadcasting their problems. They hoped to erase the debt by merging with another station.

Morrison suggested that if the sale goes through, the station will keep the KUSP call letters and record library and would have cash left over to possibly buy a smaller Santa Cruz signal based in Felton. BRAD KAVA

SHELLING OUT After being disgusted by a “kill-the-gays” state ballot initiative, Joe Decker responded with his own biblically-inspired

drafted bills go up for a month of public review and then to state Attorney General Kamala Harris, who—even against her will—must write an unbiased title and summary. That clears the proponents for signature gathering. With enough names—5 percent of the most recent gubernatorial electorate, or in this case 366,000 valid autographs—an initiative qualifies for the ballot. Thus, the lower the turnout, the easier it is to bring to voters on Election Day. Revolted by the kill-the-gays bill, Harris tried to block it, asking a Sacramento Superior Court judge for declaratory relief so she doesn’t have to dignify it with a formal response, as required by the state constitution.

“If the court does not grant this relief, my office will be forced to issue a title and summary for a proposal that seeks to legalize discrimination and vigilantism,” Harris wrote in her petition.

Assemblyman Evan Low (D-San Jose) says the whole debacle of fake and far-fetched bills cheapens the democratic process. Once he heard about McLaughlin’s proposal for legalized slaughter, Low introduced a bill that would up the filing cost from $200 to $8,000. The fee hasn’t been updated in 72 years.

“This was such an egregious example of the

problems with our initiative process,” Low says.

“When you have such a low barrier to entry, strange things do occur. I think the ‘kill-the-gays’ initiative really brought that to light.”

Low hopes AB 1100 will weed out people filing initiatives for their 15 minutes of fame, or something other than their intended purpose, which is to create law, amend the state constitution or recall a governor.

“On one level, we just need to modernize with the times,” Low says. “Not to mention, we have to develop trust with the electorate. If you see an initiative like [the Sodomite Suppression Act], people question the process. Trust is a nonnegotiable.”

Processing citizen-led initiatives costs well over the current filing fee, even for the most wackadoodle legislative proposals. Venture capitalist Tim Draper’s initiative last year to slice the state up into “Six Californias” busied a host of analysts with the absurd, arduous task of figuring out it would impact the economy, tax base, education, social services, water supply and other factors.

“The cost is definitely more than the $200 submission fee and that includes work from the Legislative Analyst’s Office, the Attorney General’s office, the Department of Finance and numerous state and local agencies that

we contact to quantify the costs,” says Nick Schroeder, a senior legislative analyst. “Some of it gets very difficult, in some cases impossible, to quantify.”

Dialing up the fee would not only cover some behind-the-scenes costs, but also might get people to think twice about submitting a proposal with no chance of advancing to the ballot.“Raising the dollar amount would hopefully encourage people to put forward more thoughtful proposals,” agrees Mark Baldassare, president of the Public Policy Institute of California. Besides, anyone who hopes to land an initiative on the ballot has to be ready to foot the considerably higher price of collecting signatures, he adds. To drum up enough names, proponents often have to shell out $500,000 or more to professional signature-gathering firms.

Low’s suggested fee hike comes on the heels of unprecedented reforms to the initiative system, a century-old hallmark of California democracy. Last fall, Gov. Jerry Brown signed a law that allows sponsors to withdraw their initiative closer to the election. It improved transparency, requiring the Secretary of State to post online the top 10 financial donors for and against each initiative. It also called for a 30-day public review at the start of the process and extended the signature-gathering period from

150 to 180 days. By changing the timetable, lawmakers have a greater chance to reach a compromise with initiative sponsors.“It’s going to be really interesting to see how this works out,” Baldassare says. “Particularly for some of these complicated and high-profile initiatives, like marijuana legalization, which we’ll see moving into 2016.”

But raising fees has its own opponents, including the author of the jackass-suppression initiative. While extreme, the kill-the-gays bill will inevitably fail thanks to existing checks and balances, Laws says. “This is one submission that is full of hatred and intolerance, true,” says the Los Angeles-based author. “But I think it’s important to allow ordinary people to submit their ideas to reform the constitution or to add laws.”

Decker worries that the intersection of crowdfunding, viral marketing and the accessibility of California’s initiative process could result in some questionable measures ending up on the ballot. When an Indiana pizza parlor raised nearly a million dollars last month to defend a state law emboldening them to deny service to LGBT customers, Decker thought, how hard would it be for a backers of a bigoted bill to raise money for signature gathering?

“There’s something very dangerous in that combination,” he says.

spokesperson for the CDPR, says her department is hopeful of getting enhanced regulations on the books by the end of the year. In the meantime, officials for the department are holding public workshops throughout the state in hopes of receiving feedback from the public.

“The basic idea is that while we are figuring this out, we want to know if there are other restrictions we should look at,” Fadipe says. “We understand the concern, but we want to hear ideas about the nitty gritty. Do we notify schools every time? Do we release a schedule at the beginning the year? We want to find solutions that are meaningful and practical.”

Fadipe referred to the workshops as listening sessions that will not only focus on notification, but also seek input on whether requiring additional restrictions on certain pesticides will reduce the risk of exposure.

While the CDPR is working on that, Monning said he has had conversations with other lawmakers about providing incentive to farmers for converting from conventional farms with heavy pesticide use to organic farms.

He emphasizes that the conversation is about creating a carrot for farmers to chase, rather than a stick.

“It’s about asking ourselves if there is a way to incentivize getting more organic production around schools,” he says. “The challenge lies in that to get organic certification you can’t use certain kinds of chemicals for five years. So there are certainly time impediments, but long term this is one of my interests.”

Lopez says this would be the most amenable solution not only for teachers, students and parents, but also for the farmworkers themselves, whom she asserts are the most invisible and voiceless of the stakeholder groups.

“Ultimately, we would like to see no pesticides used in Santa Cruz or Monterey County,” she says. “Santa Cruz County is already 30 percent organic. Why can’t we do that countywide?”

The CDPR will have a public workshop at 3 p.m. June 2 at Cesar Chavez Library at 615 Williams Road, Salinas.

HEAR ME ROAR

Mary Mykhaylova and Julia Fogelson, both Masters of Social Work students at Smith College in Massachusetts, wanted to harness Santa Cruz's artistic energy to get people talking about gendered violence.

It’s exactly these mo ore subtle sorts of miscommunic cations that are so often ft at the e center of gendered violence issu ues, says Mykhaylova.

“Do you think it makes women fe feel good to be evaluated in n this way?

To be cased down each aisle, ‘Hey beautiful’ … Do you thin nk that when I create a wide berth beetween us I am playing hard to get?”

—RAGGEDY ANDEY, Y, 'SPE EAK OUT'

In “Speak Out,” Ragg gedy Andey describes the violation n of being relentlessly pursued in n a CVS drugstore—“Look drugstore— Look, II’m m out to buy cleaning supplies,” she e writes.

To be called beautifu ul, she explains, is not fl flatterry that all women welcome with open arms; giving the act a cute name like “catcalling” dismiisses the fundamental problem:: catcalling is done without permiission, let alone the consideratio on that being “on display,” is someth hing women have seemingly little say s in, in say Mykhaylova and Fogellson.

ZINES <23 appearance than on the content of their character, and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the inspiration for the zineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s backcover image by Allison Garcia, an art student at Cabrillo College. Her drawing depicts a woman staring defiantly above a banner reading â&#x20AC;&#x153;strong,â&#x20AC;? tigers on her headâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;the real seat of her power. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a really important message to make women feel strong, I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s encouraged enough,â&#x20AC;? says Garcia. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not a frequent compliment to remind a woman that sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s capable, that sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s strong.â&#x20AC;?

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s possible to drive that message home in a zine, she says, unlike a more commercial or scholarly publication. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think the whole DIY concept takes out the filter that a professionally published book mightâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;the authors or artists put exactly what they meant. They donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to water it down or change their intention in any way,â&#x20AC;? says Garcia. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It feels really pure and it feels local.â&#x20AC;?

That was the ideaâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;to tell reallife stories of gendered violence, in something people can physically pick up and feel in their hands.

Flipping through its pages can spark many negative emotionsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;disbelief, anger, sadness, rageâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;but also feelings of solidarity, compassion and hope.

It took Mykhaylova and Fogelson months to put the zine together.

After coming up with the idea, they went ahead getting the word out: printing and posting fliers, sending a call for submissions to media outlets, attending protests and poetry open mics, and then creating a Tumblr page where people could submit their work.

After an initial lag in submissions (â&#x20AC;&#x153;people tend to be procrastinators,â&#x20AC;? says Mykhaylova), they printed everything they receivedâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; Community Printers gave them 24 pages.

The turning point, says Mykhaylova, was when she worked with the Museum of Art & Historyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;Subjects to Changeâ&#x20AC;? Teen Night and received nine pieces from mainly

high-school-aged kids. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was wonderful to see how messages can come through, especially the submissions from youth, because this is a topic that is really complicated and sad, in a way,â&#x20AC;? says Mykhaylova. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very powerful to see that people of all ages are connected to it, and that they have these beautiful, artistic ways of sharing their stories.â&#x20AC;?

Getting people to acknowledge something as monolithic and misunderstood as gendered violence, says Mykhaylova, requires that community effort. â&#x20AC;&#x153;i have walked around for twenty years with useless hands and a gun for a mouth that has to fire inward on most days because no one can eat this much of my fire but myself. they will implant an anger in you that they will later try to deny, hold fast to this anger it is what you have won after surviving living in female skin after living in a skin that invites the other half of the world to make you into a wound.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D;RAGGEDY ANDEY, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;SPEAK OUTâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;

â&#x20AC;&#x153;You donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have to have experienced sexual assault to feel like youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve experienced gendered violence: itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all around us,â&#x20AC;? says Mykhaylova. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If someone has a medical issue, like a broken legâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll go to the doctor and get it taken care of, but when itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an emotional issue people are scared to open up.â&#x20AC;?

Emotional scars can be just as devastating, and longer-lasting, than physical ones. When we call all instances of gendered violence by their true name, society can start to recognize just how many people it really affects, says Fogelson. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Queering Abolitionâ&#x20AC;? is a story in â&#x20AC;&#x153;Speak Out,â&#x20AC;? about transgendered violence; it depicts the bloody, violent discrimination that so many trans men and women face,

MAY 6-12, 2015 | GTWEEKLY.COM | SANTACRUZ.COM

How DIY culture—and the way we document it—is evolving

30

W

hat happens when an entire subculture has no archive? No story exists. When no story exists, some will assume there’s no story to be told.

For most of this country’s history, underground cultural movements were rarely documented. That changed in the 20th century, when musicologists, sociologists and historians became more interested in preserving and tracing populist movements, in everything from blues field recordings to Howard

Zinn’s “A People’s History of the United States.”

Zines evolved the storytelling further, providing a record of DIY (Do-It-Yourself) culture’s breakout in the early days of punk, through the rise of alternative, to today.

And with the accessibility of the Internet, the zine ethos has continued to evolve.

Grasstronaut (grasstronaut.com) is a site I started here in Santa Cruz in August of last year. It’s a blog deeply influenced by zine culture that features interviews,

case studies and resources from grassroots arts projects. Above all else, it’s an archive of stories.

There’s no better way to tell our stories than to do it ourselves. Zines are printed ephemera—usually a few sheets of 8.5” x 11” folded in half to form a booklet. The content is whatever you want it to be. The format is whatever you want it to be. This freedom may seem chaotic, but this is actually what makes zines great: the absolute control over what you produce.

And that’s what separates zine

BY ELISE GRANATA culture from mainstream media: we get to drive. We conceptualize, tinker with design, and spend hours hunched over a xerox machine at Kinko’s to bring these to life. You can make a zine about your favorite pumpkin cookie recipe or thoughts on increased militarization of the police force. A list of all of the best bathroom graffiti in Santa Cruz. Your poetry. Illustrations.

My thing is DIY arts. And while there’s no xeroxing involved with Grasstronaut, zine culture is deeply sewn into its ethos. It’s a centralized

Phone tag. Several thousand rounds of it. And then, thanks to the sweet Verizon overlords, I answer the phone and it’s Kyle Napalan. He’s the founder of the Dial, a multi-use arts warehouse space once based in Murrieta, California. It was an all-ages oasis of printmaking space, open mics, dance sessions, film fests, and art shows. Police had threatened the Dial before, but it finally buckled due to noise complaints in October 2014. Now the organizers are without a physical space. I interviewed Napalan for two hours for Grasstronaut about what it’s like to lose a place like this.

“We recognize that when a DIY space faces difficulty, no matter where it is, there is a disruption in the vibration of the overall quality of what we’re trying to do,” Napalan says.

DIY isn’t new. It’s not a phenomenon. This is a subculture that has thrived for decades, evolving to survive and thrive despite local noise ordinances and police crackdowns. We present art in critical and important contexts: cheaply, accessibly, and underground.

So when Napalan talks about a disruption in the force, he means it.

Shutting down the Dial meant a loss of a subversive community space in an area where that is rare—there are only a few dozen DIY art spaces like the Dial in California. Keep zooming in, and the Dial was the only creative resource of its kind in the Temecula area. When we talk, it’s half an interview for Grasstronaut, and half a phone call to connect Napalan with resources. So many other spaces just like the Dial experience shutdowns or evictions, or go broke. The C.H.E. Cafe, their neighbors to the south, are teetering daily on eviction at the hands of UC San Diego.

There’s no one place you can find out about this. That’s kind

of the point. The stories of these entities exist in scattered local news sources (“Grand Rapids DIY space closing”) and personal Facebook posts (“This venue sucks because they allowed racist bands to perform”), meandering low-budget documentaries and, of course, zines, but nothing central. You could only collect history via websites, hearsay, and being there. And phone calls between Murrieta and Santa Cruz late on a Thursday night.

Without that, there’s no story.

It’s part of the charm. It’s part of the challenge. DIY arts can be so many things: physical spaces, temporary programs, publications, artists, collectives, record labels, podcasts. Big or small (but usually small), illegal or legit.

When I speak to Napalan, I find out he has no idea about Silent Barn, a strikingly similar multi-use arts space in Bushwick, New York.

I quickly make it clear that going to their website as soon as possible ranks just short of a life-or-death situation. Isn’t it amazing that two similar, alternative arts warehouses on opposite sides of the country had no clue about each other?

They deserve to know of each other. Zines are great, but you would have to curate the most niche collection in the world to gain any continuity of DIY arts stories. Also, please call me if you have this niche collection.

The Dial is anything but gone.

And it’s thanks, in part, to the worst (or best) timing in the world. They received nonprofit status three weeks before their shutdown, and finished fundraising for a brand new, shiny PA system the day they closed.

So, for Napalan and the rest of the Dial Collective, giving up is just not an option. How could it be? They have local support, a community of artists who are hungry for a home, and a lot more to learn.

For now, their story lives on Grasstronaut. So do dozens of other DIY arts spaces, collectives, publishing houses, and artists.

Grasstronaut is inspired by the reality that zines and the DIY ethos help create—it exists if you make it.

Three lit events this week in Santa Cruz illustrate why we cherish independent bookstores BY WENDY MAYER-LOCHTEFELD

L

ast Saturday was Independent Bookstore Day, and, like my fellow bookworms, I headed out, wish list in hand, to pay my respects. But for me, it was bittersweet.

As a former co-owner of Capitola Book Cafe, I know what it means to put the right book into someone’s

HOT TICKET

hands at the right moment. I’ve seen the spark in a toddler’s eyes when Billie Harris lent her refined British accent to reading “Don’t Let the Pigeon Drive the Bus” during Monday morning story hour. I’ve been rewarded by working with a staff that walked and talked their passion for books every day, and by customers who

lived for the hunt, often leaving with titles they didn’t know they wanted but were glad they’d found. I welcomed countless authors to our well-worn podium, inviting them to share their wit and wisdom with our community.

I was also plagued by the everyday disasters familiar to booksellers everywhere: failed

computers, market challenges, and good intentions waylaid by tough realities. I may have been at the tail end of a 35-year legacy, but I wouldn’t trade the privilege of having carried that torch for anything. I was part of something bigger than me, and in the end, bigger than the store itself. I >38 still am.

LITERATURE

<36 Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a dance between readers, writers, booksellers and publishers, and the bookstore is our dance hall. Among the stacks, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re free to tango with any character we please. We start conversations with strangers and discover soul mates.

We traffic in stories. We geek out over the details of the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Marsâ&#x20AC;? trilogy and hungrily clutch the latest John Green novel. We argue over Haruki Murakami. We read to our kids and watch them grow wings, treating picture books like launch pads.

Bookstores force us to reconsider everything we think we know. They even offer up our heroes in the flesh, who appear on rainy nights after long drives to talk about their work and shake our hands. They make us believe we can do it, whatever it may be, all for the price of a paperback.

Three events at Bookshop Santa Cruz this week illustrate why we celebrate Independent Bookstore Day. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m especially pleased that they feature novelists; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been said that the novel is an endangered species, but, like independent bookstores, their demise has been greatly exaggerated.

SYDNEY PADUA Animator, writer, and enthusiastic computer geek Sydney Padua will be at Bookshop Santa Cruz at 7:30 p.m. on Wednesday, May 6, for her hoot of a graphic novel, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Thrilling Adventures of Lovelace and Babbage.â&#x20AC;? Who knew that the seeds of the computer revolution were planted in the brass cogs and punch cards of Victorian England? Who could imagine that the friendship between two eccentric London intellectualsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;a mathematician named Charles Babbage and the brilliant daughter of Lord Byron, Ada Lovelaceâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;would hold the makings of a fictional dynamic duo?

Babbage never did see his steampowered â&#x20AC;&#x153;analytical engineâ&#x20AC;? come to life, and Lovelace, who translated his work and pushed it to the next level in reams of her own added footnotes, died young, but Padua lends brawn to their brains in a steampunk adventure tale filled with fascinating historical facts and literal pipe dreams. In it, Babbage and Lovelace build the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Difference

Engineâ&#x20AC;? (Padua incorporated the details of Babbageâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s actual designs), using it to fight crime and set off on wild adventures. Paduaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s expressive drawing style, spirited wit, and exuberant obsession with footnotes (youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll never look at them in quite the same way again), bring history to life and paint science with magic.

CHRISTIAN KIEFER At 7:30 p.m. on Thursday, May 7, Christian Kiefer will be appearing at Bookshop for his second novel, â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Animals.â&#x20AC;? The story is straightforward: Bill Reed seeks to rebuild his life as the caretaker at a wildlife sanctuary in rural Idaho, after drug abuse and gambling addiction led him to a life of crime in Nevada, but when his partner in crime is released from prison, Reed is forced to reckon with his past.

Kiefer doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sacrifice an ounce of suspense in this noir meditation on instinct and redemption, but dives deep beneath the surface of Reedâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s character, asking if can we change our core nature, or if it is fixed beyond our control.

Kiefer is too thoughtful a prose stylist to leave us with a simple answer. Instead, he weaves cliffhangers into the winter landscape, marking a path between them to open territory, even as he cautions that it might lead to our worst fears. Like his first novel, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Infinite Tides,â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Animalsâ&#x20AC;? reflects a naturalistic view of the world that holds us responsible for making our own meaning and shaping our own fates. Kiefer himself sets a good example. Besides writing novels, heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a busy professor at American River College and a father of five boys who lives in the Sierra foothills with a small menagerie. Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a prolific musician, too, and produced a soundtrack to the book that was released at the same time on vinyl.

JANE SMILEY At 7:30 a.m. on Monday, May 1, we score another visit from PulitzerPrize-winning author Jane Smiley, for her new novel, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Early Warning.â&#x20AC;?

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the second installment in her ambitious â&#x20AC;&#x153;Last Hundred Yearsâ&#x20AC;? trilogy, which traces the intimate fortunes of the Langdon family, set

37th Annual Mother’s Day Weekend

Breakthroughs happen here™

Three events at Bookshop Santa Cruz this week illustrate why we celebrate Independent Bookstore Day. I’m especially pleased that they feature novelists; it’s been said that the novel is an endangered species, but, like independent bookstores, their demise has been greatly exaggerated.

GOOD NEWS Like distinct planets in a shared solar system, indie bookstores are bound to the same gravitational pull. Authors like Ann Patchett, Larry McMurtry, Louise Erdrich, and Jonathan Lethem have all succumbed to owning independent bookstores, and just as they might say that it was slightly insane to

take the leap, they’d also assure you that it was a labor of love.

The news on the business front is actually good. Sales have grown for independent booksellers by about 8 percent over the last three years, more than for booksellers in general, and the number of new independent bookstores has grown by about 20 percent. Considering that between 2000 and 2007, at least 1,000 indies closed their doors, this is a welcome change indeed.

Make no mistake, the days of retail bookstore giants that cover city blocks have all but gone.

Amazon has ensured that no bookstore can compete with the everything store. But indies are coming to understand that their place is not to slay corporate dragons or be all things to all people. It’s to bring community members together around thoughtful collections of books that remind us what’s new in the world of ideas, as well as what’s timeless. There will never be much profit in the game, but again, it’s a labor of love. Venture out this weekend if you missed Independent Bookstore Day, and seek out a book you’ve always wanted—or better still, a great new title you stumble upon—at community gems like Bookshop Santa Cruz, Logos, the Literary Guillotine, and Crossroads in Watsonville. Ann Patchett put it best: “If what a bookstore offers matters to you, then shop at a bookstore. If you feel that the experience of reading a book is valuable, then read a book. This is how we change the world: We grab hold of it. We change ourselves.”

against the sweeping backdrop of the 20th century. She was here last October for the first installment, “Some Luck.”

It begins in 1920 at the Iowa farm purchased by Walter and Rosanna Langdon. As the chapters unfold over 33 years (each chapter comprising a year), babies are born, children leave home, and fortunes change. “Early Warning” picks up in 1953, at patriarch Walter Langdon’s funeral. At this point, the Langdon children have grown up and spread out, migrating to urban opportunities and raising families of their own, all while navigating the tidal flow of history.

Benchmarks like the Cold War, Vietnam, the Jonestown massacre, and AIDS find their way into the characters’ living rooms, merging with their personal triumphs and tragedies. Through it all, Smiley never loses touch with the universal questions that come to define us all. Are we loved? Can we change? Do we matter? Like a great cinematographer, she moves in for a close-up and then pulls back to reveal the big picture, rewarding us with a unique sense of our own place in the grand scheme of things.

MUSIC

Just What She Needed Kris Delmhorst on folky New Wave covers and coming back to songwriting with a whole new perspective BY CAT JOHNSON

K

ris Delmhorst has the best of two worlds. Born and raised in Brooklyn, she’s a bona fide city girl, but she also has a nature-loving side.

When we talk on the phone, she’s busy putting in a “pretty extensive” garden in Western Massachusetts, where she lives with her husband, singer-songwriter Jeffrey Foucault, and their six-year-old daughter.

“In a way,” she says, “this is a perfect existence because I get to have both. We tour and we go soak up all of our favorite cities, then we come back here. It’s a really restful place to come back to.”

In a way, she’s brought the same

mix of rootsy earnestness and urban cool to her music. A favorite of folk fans, Delmhorst raised a few eyebrows among purists with her 2011 album Cars, a tribute to the music of the slick New Wave band of the same name. For Delmhorst, making the album was a chance to "inhabit the joy of just playing,” and take a peek at the inner workings of the Cars songs she has known and loved for decades.

“They’re built like these amazing, intricate machines,” she says, “with all these interlocking parts and so many memorable riffs packaged into each song. I’ve always been fascinated by the construction of those songs.”

Delmhorst also wanted to see what the songs sounded like stripped down and played with acoustic instruments.

“They were so rooted in their moment, production-wise,” she says. “I wanted to hear those songs wearing different clothes—less ’80s outfits.”

On her latest album, Blood Test, which is her first of original material since 2008’s Shotgun Singer, Delmhorst took a different approach. Where Cars is a fun romp down memory lane, Blood Test is a deep journey into the mind of a woman who is now focused on the big picture.

“Becoming a mom zooms your

WHAT’S HER TYPE? Kris Delmhorst brings her new album ‘Blood Test’ to Don Quixote’s on May 13.

perspective out,” she says. “It makes you see yourself as one piece of the fabric of the continuity of your family, and the whole human family.”

After not doing much songwriting for the first few years of motherhood—something she attributes to sleep deprivation and not having the luxury of applying any brain power to the process— Delmhorst re-emerged with a different take on life.

“One theme of this record,” she says, “is cutting through all the noise and all the fundamentally irrelevant stuff that is everywhere in our culture right now; trying to stay connected to the real stuff.”

To record Blood Test, Delmhorst teamed up with songwriter/ producer Anders Parker. The two worked well together as Parker’s calm demeanor balanced out what Delmhorst describes as her tendency to get “wound up” in the studio about having a finite amount of time to finish a project. From the start, the two wanted to keep the sound and instrumentation of Blood Test stripped-down.

“I was interested in having this one be a lot more spare,” Delmhorst says.

“I wanted to have the structure [of the songs] define it and not clutter it up too much with other stuff.”

The result is a thoughtful, introspective album that finds the humanness in the universal. One of the standout tracks is “Bees,” in which she sings “And the sky looks down on me and says / What are you doing with your one little chance to be free? / And I look up at the sky and say / What am I doing with my one little chance to be alive?”

The lyrics came to her on a long flight where she says she gets “a little distance” on her life and the world. When she takes a big-picture perspective, Delmhorst finds a place of gratitude.

“I’ve had this lucky road through life,” she says. “I haven’t done any work but this work for 20 years.

There's a lot of bullshit involved with being a performing musician, but there’s also this central fact that I’m getting paid to think about life ... and express it.”

For 35 years, the Human Race has attracted families and their pets from all corners of the county to participate on behalf of an organization of their choosing. It’s the largest collaborative fundraiser on the central coast and mobilizes more than 10,000 donors every year. This year’s theme is “Use Your Superpowers,” so the Volunteer Center of Santa Cruz County invites participants to bring their own flavor of superhero extravaganza and fun.

Mayor Don Lane, Santa Cruz Superintendent Michael Watkins, and County Supervisor Ryan Coonerty have all raised their capes, masks, and superhero shields on social media to announce the causes they will support at this year’s Human Race.

MUSIC

BE OUR GUEST NEXTIES On the surface, Santa Cruz is a surf town, a tourist town, an artsy town.

Once a year, the Nexties honor some of the area’s hottest movers and shakers with an event that celebrates the future-forward spirit of the Santa Cruz community. This year’s recipients are Andrea Mollenauer, Martijn Stiphout, Monica Karst, Paul De Worken, Courtney Laschkewitsch and Coffee Zombie Collective (above).

PROGRESSIVE BLUEGRASS

TONY FURTADO

Tony Furtado took an early interest in the banjo, picking it up in the sixth grade. Not having a banjo of his own, the Oakland-born youngster crafted one out of materials he found around the house, and went on to win the National Banjo Championship. If that doesn’t get him some serious bluegrass-cred points, I don’t know what will. When Furtado later picked up the slide guitar with ease, he sealed his fate as a multi-faceted artist who

bends the boundaries of style and instrumentation. CJ INFO: 8 p.m. Moe’s Alley, 1535 Commercial Way, Santa Cruz. $15/adv, $18/door. 479-1854.

CASTING CIRCLES The local music scene continues to amaze. Just when one thinks one knows all the bands, there are always a couple that fall through the cracks. Luckily, Casting Circles will be playing at the Blue Lagoon on Tuesday, so this is a chance to catch up. Self-described as “Cholagaze,” the four-piece bursts with the oddly-dreamy-yet-tragic sounds of bands like Best Coast, the Pixies, the Cranes and more. Let Casting Circles remind you what it’s like to be young, in love, and hating every minute of it. MW INFO: 9 p.m. Blue Lagoon, 923 Pacific Ave., Santa Cruz. $5 door. 423-7117.

A collaboration between honky-tonker Hart Kingsbery and classically trained vocalist and pianist Caitlin Sherman, Evening Bell plays the kind of music that works really well on a long road trip: slow-burning, haunting, spacious, and reminiscent of the Old West. Originally a duo, the Seattle-based band now includes bassist Aaron Harmonson and drummer Jason Merculief. CJ

Quinn, Big Omeezy … oh wait, that’s also the line-up for this Saturday’s Catalyst show. That’s right, Dem’ Bay Boyz will be blazing the neighborhood stage for a one-time show appropriately named “Return of the Real.” MAT WEIR

Life vs. Art MAY 6-12, 2015 | GTWEEKLY.COM | SANTACRUZ.COM

Women shine in backstage drama ‘Clouds of Sils Maria’ BY LISA JENSEN

66

T

he milieu is theatrical— actors, directors, stage and film. But there’s more than the typical backstage melodrama going on in French filmmaker Olivier Assayas’ Clouds of Sils Maria. It’s very much a movie of ideas, rather than action, in which a highly lauded and beloved French actress—played by the highly lauded and beloved Juliette Binoche—must confront thorny issues of aging, sexuality and personal relationships when she’s asked to return to the stage in a revival of the same play that made her a star 20 years earlier. Except this time, instead of playing the ingénue, she’ll be playing a conflicted and defeated older woman.

It’s an astute premise for drama, made more intriguing in that Assayas creates not one, but three strong female roles. Besides the star played

by Binoche, we get Kristen Stewart, as her harried but efficient young personal assistant, and Chloe Grace Moretz as the even younger American movie starlet cast in the ingénue role in the play opposite the star.

Yes, there’s a lot of talk in the film (although, since two of the main characters are Yanks, most of the dialogue is in English), but the talk is often rich and thoughtful.

Maria Enders (Binoche), celebrated actress of stage and screen, is on a train in the Alps en route to an international tribute to the Swiss dramatist who launched her career

20 years ago by casting her in his play The Maloja Snake. (The title refers to a weather phenomenon by which morning fog appears to wind through a certain valley of the Alps like a snake.) As she writes her speech, her assistant, Val (Stewart), intercepts incoming calls, emails and texts, arranges transport, and keeps her on schedule.

Maria’s memories are stirred by running into a German actor she dislikes at the tribute, and reuniting with the dramatist’s widow (the great Angela Winkler, fondly remembered as the star of The Lost Honor Of Katharina Blum), who loans Maria her secluded house in the Alps. She’s also approached by a director who wants to restage

The Maloja Snake in London.

The play concerns an executive businesswoman beguiled, seduced and manipulated by a younger woman rising in the ranks. But this time, instead of the disruptive younger woman, Maria is cast as the executive, while the younger role goes to a 19-year-old Hollywood starlet, JoAnn (Moretz), with a scandalous reputation.

The stage is set, literally and metaphorically, for reflections on reckless youth, the inevitability of aging, and the change of perspective between the two, as well as facing and letting go of the past. But the interaction is mostly between Maria and Val, rattling around their borrowed house, hiking through the mountains, and getting raucously sauced together at the bar in town. They also rehearse the play together (Val reading the ingénue role, of course), a clever device by which Assayas explores not only the volatile relationship in the play within the film, but also the evolving real-life dynamic between Maria and Val—often leaving it to the viewer to distinguish between dialogue written in the play and their own impromptu conversations.

There’s a sly undercurrent to Assayas’ portrait of modern technodriven arts. (Maria doesn’t want to do “another X-Men;” she and Val debate the merits of JoAnn’s performance in a cold, slick sci-fi epic, a dubious snippet of which we see.) But while the idea of moving on and not getting stuck in the past is a recurring theme, Assayas’ decision not to address certain dangling plot points (unknown papers burned in a grate; one character’s disappearance) feels a bit perverse.

Still, this is the kind of femmedriven story it rarely even occurs to anybody in Hollywood to make, and it’s a treat to see all three actresses rise to the challenge of the material.

An ensemble piece in every sense, Clouds of Sils Maria explores the collaborative art of making drama.

CLOUDS OF SILS MARIA ***(out of four) With Juliette Binoche, Kristen Stewart, and Chloe Grace Moretz. Written and directed by Olivier Assayas. A Sundance Selects release.

CONTINUING SERIES: MIDNIGHTS @ THE DEL MAR Eclectic movies for wild and crazy tastes plus great prizes and buckets of fun for only $6.50. This week: BLADE RUNNER: THE FINAL CUT Without the hard-boiled narration tacked onto the original studio version, director Ridley Scott’s recutting of his moody, 1982 sci-fi masterpiece is much more focused.

Harrison Ford’s ex-cop Deckard is more eloquent in his silences as he scours a futuristic Third World L. A. gone to seed for renegade replicants, and with a slightly altered ending, the theme of the preciousness of life, however short, has new urgency. Hard to believe that Scott’s indelible vision of urban America in decay ca. 2019 is only five years away! (R) 120 minutes. (***1/2)—Lisa Jensen. At the Del Mar, Fri-Sat midnight only.

CONTINUING EVENT: LET’S TALK ABOUT THE MOVIES Film buffs are invited to join us Wednesday nights at 7 p.m. in downtown Santa Cruz, where each week we discuss a different current release.

FOOD & DRINK says Boyle. “It will make the wine bar easier for many people. We’ll be able to use the kitchen better, there will be much more prep space.”

The initial dust has to settle

by Wednesday, May 13, however, because “that’s when we begin serving bar food at Motiv,” says Boyle.

Soif’s chefs—including a new young group for whom Motiv will act as a “culinary incubator”—will be cooking on May 13 up at the former Pearl Alley Bistro space. “We’ve never done bar food,” Boyle says. “Fun finger food, silly things, and we’ll keep doing that as long as it works.”

Meanwhile, Soif’s upstairs will continue to host private events, and the newly expanded shop will add new retail items. “More retail items will be great, and new areas for specialty high-end wines, as well as an area for locally produced wines,” says Boyle.

Expect to find trending touches, such as plump, comfy chairs, Wi-Fi, and snacks that will encourage lingering over that glass of wine. (As if we didn’t linger enough already.) “Ideally we’ll re-open at the end of May, with a soft opening for Memorial Day weekend,” says the woman who never sleeps.

Soif, expanded and full of surprises, will re-open the last weekend of May: soifwine.com.

MORE PLEASE Soif’s executive chef Mark Denham will be expanding the menu as the restaurant

Soif Gets Soifier

S

oif is currently closed for its first remodel and expansion in 13 years.

“The retail wine shop will be moving to the other side of the restaurant,” says owner Patrice Boyle, which means that the wine shop will occupy most of the former import store space at the corner of Pacific and Walnut avenues. “The wine bar will move to where the retail space has been,” she says, chuckling. “And the current bar will be opened into an expanded kitchen.” Got it? The real impetus for all of this rearrangement,

Boyle admits, is that it will enable the expansion of the kitchen—and the menu, too. “It’s going to be great,” says Boyle. “We’ll have a grill, a griddle, a fryer, a plancha—it will allow us to do a lot more things.”

Boyle assures me that this does not mean a multi-page menu, “but lots of new dishes, new ideas,” she says.

Inspired in part by every trip she takes, “even to San Francisco,” says Boyle, the remodel—with consultation by original interior architect Mark Primack and kitchen design by Chris Baer—was stimulated by Boyle’s

desire to improve Soif’s tiny kitchen.

“We’ll have more refrigeration—that’s going to make a giant difference,” she says. New equipment will include a “super cool, variable-speed hood that will be more energy efficient. It’s very exciting.”

Soif regulars will be happy to know that not everything will change. “The entrances will stay the same, one door for the restaurant and another for retail—but when you’re sitting at the wine bar you’ll be able to look across the restaurant as well as out through the windows,”

It was a veritable poet’s corner after hours at Gabriella Cafe last Wednesday, when owner Paul Cocking set the big table for friends of poet/author Stephen Kessler after his reading and book signing at Bookshop Santa Cruz. Among the free-flowing wines, the clear favorite was Terra Nova Pinot Noir from Windy Oaks, the perfect partner for salami platters piled high with cheeses, meats and spiced fruit, as well as focaccia and those ultra unctuous Castelvetrano olives. Kessler’s ravioli dish looked pretty tantalizing, too. Thanks to the presence of loquacious literary artists like Joe Stroud, Tai Moses, Robert Sward, Eric Johnson, Alta Ifland, Donna Mekis, Traci Hukill, Frank Galuszka, and Jory and Karen Post, the tone of conversation was as wide-ranging as the delightful meal. When we left at 10:30 p.m., the throngs across the street were still swilling the sweet frozens of the Penny Ice Creamery.

The Gravitas, which comes with an imaginative label and a screw cap, sells for only $16â&#x20AC;&#x201D;an absolute bargain for such a splendidly delicious wine. *Crikey! and blimey! are two exclamations in every Britâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s vocabulary, including mine. I was thrilled to see them both on the Gravitas label, reminding me of Dear Old Blighty.

ravitas 2014. Crikey! Here comes another great wine from expert winemaker Randall Grahmâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;a Gravitas 2014 that will thrill your palate.If you havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t yet visited Grahmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bonny Doon Vineyard tasting room in Davenport, then I recommend you head there at the first opportunity. A welcoming spot with an upbeat vibe that is all Bonny Doon Vineyardâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s own, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a jolly place to hang out and taste some excellent wines. Four of us recently did just that for a special evening of readings and talks by four contributors of the Catamaran Literary Readerâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;including Grahm himself.

I meant to try several different wines, but once I tasted Grahmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Gravitas, I kept going back for more.

The 2014 Gravitasâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;a simply gorgeous wine with enticing flavorsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;is resonant with the haunting perfume of magnolia flowers and the scent of white peaches. Suggestions of ripe Bosc pear, sweet green grass, saffron, and a touch of lavender honey make this blend of Semillon (54 percent), Sauvignon Blanc (43.5 percent) and Orange Muscat (2.5 percent) a perfect wine to pair with seafood, cassoulet and lighter entrees. With all the food laid out for the eventâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;cheeses, fruit, nuts, dried figs, grilled veggies, and moreâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;it was an excellent pairing.

But wait, as ebullient winemaker Grahm says, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s more â&#x20AC;Ś Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll also find bergamot orange blossom, jasmine, key lime custard, quince, and Madagascar vanillaâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;all of these aromas and flavors add up to an intoxicating mix. Blimey! It canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get any better.

Where can people find you?

KASIA MASLANKASMITH: We are at the Corralitos Brewing Co. (2536 Freedom Blvd., Watsonville) five days a week. Westridge Business Park in Watsonville on Thursdays during lunch and in Scotts Valley serving the Central Coast Alliance employees. You can check our daily itinerary and menu on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.

What is on the menu?

The menu is constantly rotating, but we always have a pork, beef,

chicken, fish, and vegetarian option. We cater to our location.

At the Brewery, we will have fried or heavier items like the rosemary-and-garlic-scented grilled pork tenderloin and garlic mash. Customer favorites include the Philly cheesesteak and the Asian-style ribs using beer from the Corralitos Brewing Co.

What are some unusual requests?

People think we are a rolling grocery store, so we will get asked, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Do you have a banana?â&#x20AC;? or â&#x20AC;&#x153;Do you have fish sauce?â&#x20AC;?â&#x20AC;&#x201D;and that one we actually do! We got a lot of requests for tacos before the truck was wrapped and it was just white. Because of the Food Network logo on the truck [Kasia has competed on Cupcake Wars four times] we get people asking for cupcakes.

Maybe we will at some point.

What are some of the biggest challenges in operating a food truck?

Finding the right spot. We canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t go to certain areas where food trucks are not allowedâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;including the City of Capitola. And parallel parking.

+ RISAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S STARS BY RISA Dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ANGELES MOTHERâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S DAY

On Motherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Dayâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;Venus is in Cancer (the protector), the sun is in Taurus (comforter).

Motherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day (Sunday) this year with an Aquarius Moon, may be a bit unusualâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;Uranian, unexpected, unpredictable. My mother is no longer on the Earth to call upon, have dinner with, receive flowers or cards. I try remembering everything about her, what she attempted to teach us, her children. Often, I was unable to hear or understand her intentions. This saddens me.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important to remember the fourth Commandment to â&#x20AC;&#x153;Honor thy Mother and Father.â&#x20AC;? Many of us have forgotten this, along with the other nine commandments given to Moses for humanityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s direction at the beginning of the Aries Age. Positions and responsibilities in life change as we grow older. The mother/father become the ones who must be cared for and tended to in later years.

On Motherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day, let us thank and honor our mothers, accepting the future when we will care for and assist them â&#x20AC;Ś our opportunity to nurture and love more.

For those whose mothers have died, we say Ohm Mani Padme Hum, placing them in the jewel of the lotus. And if emotionally separated from the mother, we recite St. Francis of Assisiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s prayer. It helps re-establish right relations and goodwill with the mother. St. Francis of Assisi was Libra Sun, saint of right human relations. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.

Where there is hatred, let me sow love; where there is injury, pardon; where there is doubt, faith; where there is despair, hope; where there is darkness, light; and where there is sadness, let me sow joy.â&#x20AC;? To all mothers (and fathers who are mothers), Happy Motherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Day.

ARIES Mar21â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Apr20

LIBRA Sep23â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Oct22

A sense of being in alignment occurs this month for everyone, but especially for Aries. As this alignment occurs, many ideas, new and revolutionary, appear. Notice them, for they will stabilize your actions and expand self-identity, both important in coming challenging times. Careful within groups. Stand tall, brave and courageous. Remember fear is a state wherein more information is needed. Stay informed.

You remember past events, people, relationships and how you made choices in terms of future actions. Your life was sometimes around money, acquiring it, saving and spending it. This was a needed developmental stage.

Everything we do is a developmental stage. Looking back we think weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve made mistakes. Each day is new. New opportunities to change those choices, to shift them, to turn them around into something made of gold. You are called to do this. You understand.

Esoteric Astrology as news for week of May 6, 2015

TAURUS Apr21â&#x20AC;&#x201C;May21 Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been called to serve someone or something very special. It can seem to interrupt your usual daily life schedule.

Perhaps youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in retreat, behind the scenes, allowing you to ponder, think and study undistracted. Or youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re tending to a life-changing situation, healing the past, calling forth a new future in the motherland. Whatever is occurring, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s spiritually based and love underlies your choices.

GEMINI May 22â&#x20AC;&#x201C;June 20 Soon we will have both Mercury (May/June) and Venus (July/August) retrograde, your guardians, guides and rulers. Study both and be prepared for something new to occur. Perhaps dispel the illusions of others in how they see you. As you slowly enter into a more reflective state something shifts with your friends and at work.

Your communication is heard by many these days. Your responsibilities as the messenger have increased.

The result is that original ideas occur developing new ways of relating personally and professionally. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s important to be especially concerned with your creative self-identity.

Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re more than you think you are, more than most see and recognize. You will be seen as the authority, more and more. There must be a balance between discipline, structure, will, kindness and love. Put them all together.

VIRGO Aug23â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Sep22 Things religious and spiritual, questions concerning justice and events occurring far from here fill your mind. You seek answers. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re greatly organized, tending to plans and agendas affecting daily life as well as the future. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re learning about power in personal and intimate relationships. This continues for years.

You learn how to handle power with others. At first we stumble. Then we learn to love more.

In your daily life be willing to listen carefully to others in order to participate in their ideas, plans and agendas. They hold an important seed of information for your future.

Listening creates magnetic emotional balance of attraction within your life. You will be seen as one who is wise, intelligent and caring, a new persona for you that helps you cooperate, share, and provide others with praise. These create right relations with all that you encounter.

CAPRICORN Dec21â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Jan20 For the married and/or committed, turn to your partner (loved ones, family members) renewing love, intentions and dedications. This leads to a depth of unexpected love and with partners, romance. For those single, call forth Venus before going out and about. To attract others, radiate goodwill from your heart center (pink substance).

People will wonder whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s different about you, what is that light they see? Goodness will follow you in all your days.

AQUARIUS Jan21â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Feb18 Whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s occurring at home, with family, parents or your lifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s foundation? A new base of operations will soon form and there are changes you will bring about for this to occur. Tend to money carefully. It could feel like itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s disappearing or melting away. Use kindness in all communications. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t disrupt. Take one step of goodwill at a time. The next 99 always taken by spirit.

PISCES Feb19â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Mar20 Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re entering many different realities, often unseen ones. Neptune is both dropping and parting the veils, both revealing information and hiding it. The only place of reality is each moment offered in time and space. Continue with your adaptation of patience and fortitude. Keep your spirits up. Remain in the garden. Visualize a warm pool for swimming. See yourself building it â&#x20AC;Ś in the motherland.

SANTACRUZ.COM | GTWEEKLY.COM | MAY 6-12, 2015

Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an opportunity offered to you within the group(s) you find yourself participating in. Perhaps your knowledge and wisdom will be recognized more, there may be a call to lead and wish or hope fulfilled. New people become part of your circle perhaps through a community interaction.

Maintain in these interactions your ethics and ideals as you adapt and compromise and help plan the future.

MIYUKI NAGASAWA, 29-Year Customer, Santa Cruz CHRIS SOMPLE, 30-Year Customer Santa Cruz Occupation: Realtor, Co-owner DeLavega Properties

Occupation: Otoro Sushi Server Hobbies: Watching son Max play water polo, playing with our dog, love cooking, working out at the gym Astrological Sign: Aquarius

Hobbies: Working out at the gym, gardening, watching son Max play water polo, surfing, snorkeling on Maui, cooking Astrological Sign: Pisces

What do you folks like to cook? MIYUKI: “I enjoy cooking using a variety of Shopper’s wild mushrooms in pasta dishes, swordfish with a butter-lemon and caper sauce, ahi poke bowls, and more. In general, I make a lot of Italian and Japanese food.” CHRIS: “My specialty is Italian. I like Shopper’s spaghetti sauces and the Muir Glen organic fire-roasted canned tomatoes. I’ll pick up six cans at a time. Our family really likes Shopper’s sausages. I counted them the other day and they have 32 varieties! The butcher shop is beyond the best in town.

They’ve set the bar really high.”

How so? CHRIS: “The quality is phenomenal.

Even when I’m not buying meat, the cuts are so nice to look at. And their air-chilled chicken, there is such a difference...”

MIYUKI: “We like the lamb shanks and the steaks, and if we ask for a special ahi cut, they’ll accommodate us. The butchers are so nice; they all know my name and I know their names.” CHRIS: “I could never envision buying meats or produce from the chains. ” MIYUKI: “The produce is fresh and the selections are great. They have organic and conventional produce and they’re about the same price. The avocados are ripe, ripe!”

You prefer shopping local? CHRIS: “This is a classic, family-owned, neighborhood market, a dying breed. Sometimes small local stores are not cost effective. Shopper’s prices are fine. Their inventory is well thought out.

They seem to anticipate what the community wants.” MIYUKI: “The cashiers and baggers are so nice, they make you feel really welcome. Shopper’s is always clean, and I like the vintage look.” CHRIS: “It’s really warm and friendly here. You run into people you see weekly and some you haven’t see in years. They must take care of the staff since many have worked here for years.

“The butcher shop is beyond the best in town. They’ve set the bar really high. The quality is phenomenal.”
