EDITOR’S NOTE

4

Before reading Geoffrey Dunn and Kim Stoner’s cover story this week, what I knew about the history of surfing in Santa Cruz pretty much began with its spread up the coast of California in the early 20th century. I’d read a little bit five or six years ago about the visit of three Hawaiian princes—David Kawananakoa, Edward Keliiahonui and Jonah Kuhio Kalaniana’ole—to Santa Cruz in 1885, but it was entirely in the context of whether their boarding activity gave us a better claim to the “Surf City” title than those poseurs in Huntington Beach. What I didn’t know until reading this week’s story was that Santa Cruz was already widely known as Surf

City throughout California by the 1890s. Nor had I ever heard of “surf swimming,” or the Santa Cruz Daily Surf newspaper. That’s the thing about this story: though it’s centered around the princes’ visit, it’s full of interesting little details about what beach culture was like in Santa Cruz more than a hundred years ago, and provides the context necessary to really understand how and why surfing flourished here.

In conjunction with the 130th anniversary of the princes’ introduction of surfing to the city, the MAH’s new exhibit will showcase two of the three boards they crafted themselves and rode here. There are several events connected to the exhibit, starting this Friday, so check out the story for details on how to celebrate our own Surfing Independence Day.

TABLOID FODDER

CHRIS CULLIGAN | SANTA CRUZ

I am super disappointed at the recent June 24 article attacking Deputy Chief Steve Clark, published in GT Weekly, if even one could call it an “article.” It is not an article. It is not an editorial. I can tell you what it is: trashy tabloid fodder found in a deep dark hole under the editor’s desk on a particularly slow week, that floated up as a coherent piece of journalism, after what I can only assume was a night of heavy drinking. A revenge hit piece with the ramblings of an irrelevant washed-up political activist/self-described anarchist (oh, the irony!) that contribute nothing more than letters on a page of an already compromised, distrusted, and, dare I say, crumbling publication.

The editorial board should be ashamed. This limp excuse of an opinion barely passes muster for a junior high literature class and would certainly garner the student remedial courses in basic fact checking. Readership is down, and I can see why. My only advice to the board is that they enlist the help of my daughter’s second-grade English class the next time they decide they pretend to do something useful for the community other than supplying materials for washing our windows.

STEVE PALOPOLI | EDITOR-IN-CHIEF

NO SURPRISE Thanks much for publishing the article by John Malkin “Blurred Blue Lines,” revealing the many serious instances of inappropriate behavior by SCPD Deputy Police Chief Steve Clark. I can’t believe that after slandering a city council candidate, attempting to intimidate several former and present mayors and council members, and flaunting city regulations on acquisitions and grants—in the recent “BearCat” matter—Clark still remains in the employment of us, the citizens of Santa Cruz. Even worse, he’s in a management role in our Police Department.

On the other hand, given the direction of city politics in recent years, having an apparent bully in such a prominent position is not surprising. As Franklin said, “people get the democracy they deserve.” Congratulations to the majority of voters in Santa Cruz.

P.S. Feel free, Mr. Clark, to add our names to your surveillance files. We and many others are watching you, too.

PARK IT FORWARD

SNOW TO SURF

We want to say thanks to the Taqueria Vallarta employee who gave one GT staffer his ticket for a parking spot this week. He’d paid for the whole day, but had to leave midway, and wanted someone else to be able to take the spot. Right on, dude. We’re going to do the same for someone else.

Let’s start a movement.

The dry winter and lack of snow has apparently been good for Santa Cruz, driving hotel occupancy up 15 percent this year. (Statewide occupancy is up only 3.5 percent.) The Santa Cruz County Conference and Visitors Council attributes some of the rise to the lack of snow in the mountains driving people from snowboards to surfboards, and they’ve stepped up their marketing to capitalize on it.

ROB BREZSNY FREE WILL ASTROLOGY Week of July 1 ARIES Mar21–Apr19

LIBRA Sep23–Oct22

To determine whether you are aligned with the cosmic flow, please answer the following questions. 1. Would you say that your current situation is more akin to treading water in a mosquito-ridden swamp, or conducting a ritual of purification in a clear mountain stream? 2. Have you been wrestling with boring ghosts and arguing with traditions that have lost most of their meaning? Or have you been transforming your past and developing a riper relationship with your roots? 3. Are you stuck in a gooey muck? Or are you building a flexible new foundation?

It’s the power-building phase of your astrological cycle.

To take maximum advantage, convey the following message to your subconscious mind: “I know you will provide me with an abundance of insight, inspiration, and energy for whatever intention I choose to focus on.

And during the next four weeks, my intention will be to cultivate, expand, and refine my personal power. I will especially focus on what author Stephen R. Covey called ‘the capacity to overcome deeply embedded habits and to cultivate higher, more effective ones.’”

TAURUS Apr20–May20

SCORPIO Oct23–Nov21

Taurus singer Sam Smith won four Grammys this year, largely on the strength of his hit single “Stay with Me.” The song has a lush gospel choir backing up his lead vocals, or so it seems. But in fact, every voice in that choir is his own. He recorded twenty separate harmony tracks that were woven together to create the big sound.

What would be the equivalent in your world, Taurus?

How could you produce a wealth of support for yourself?

What might you do to surround yourself with a web of help and nourishment? How can you amplify and intensify your efforts so they have more clout? Now would be an excellent time to explore possibilities like these.

I’m a big fan of science and logic and objective thinking.

Most of us need more of that good stuff. The world would be a saner, safer place if we all got regular lessons on how to be more reasonable and rational. But in the immediate future, Scorpio, I’ll steer you in a different direction. I believe you will benefit from injecting your imagination with primal raw crazy wild mojo. For example, you might read utopian science fiction and fairy tales about talking animals and poetry that scrambles your intellectual constructs. You could remember your dreams and ruminate about them as if they were revelations from the Great Beyond. You may also find it healthy to fantasize profusely about forbidden and impossible and hilarious adventures.

GEMINI May21–June20 Born under the sign of Gemini, Gustave Courbet (18191877) was a French painter who upset traditionalists.

Unlike many of his contemporaries, he wasn’t interested in creating idealistic art based on historical and religious themes. He focused on earthy subjects about which he had direct experience, like the day-to-day lives of peasants and laborers. So even though he became a highly praised celebrity by his mid-thirties, the arbiters of the art world tried to exclude him. For example, they denied him a place in Exposition Universelle, a major international exhibition in Paris. In response, Courbet built a temporary gallery next door to the main hall, where he displayed his own work. As you strive to get your voice heard, Gemini, I urge you to be equally cheeky and innovative. Buy yourself a megaphone or erect your own clubhouse or launch a new enterprise. Do whatever it takes to show who you really are.

CANCER Jun21–Jul22 “I am trying to be unfamiliar with what I am doing,” said composer John Cage in describing his creative process.

That's excellent counsel for you to meditate on, Cancerian.

The less expertise and certainty you have about the rough magic you’re experimenting with, the more likely it is that this magic will lead you to useful breakthroughs. To bolster Cage’s advice and help you get the most from your period of self-reinvention, I offer you this quote from Picasso: “I imitate everyone except myself.”

LE0 Jul23–Aug22

JULY 1-7, 2015 | GTWEEKLY.COM | SANTACRUZ.COM

Your words of wisdom come from Leo artist Andy Warhol: “Sometimes people let the same problem make them miserable for years, when they could just say, ‘so what.’ That’s one of my favorite things to say. ‘So what.’” Can I interest you in that approach, Leo? It has similarities to the Buddhist strategy of cultivating non-attachment—of dropping your fixations about matters that can’t be controlled or changed. But I suspect you would draw special benefits from the breezy, devil-may-care spirit of Warhol’s version. So start there.

Exp. 8/1/15

SAGITTARIUS Nov22–Dec21 There are lots of inquiries and invitations coming your way—perhaps too many. I don’t think you should pursue all of them. In fact, I suspect that only one would ultimately make you a better human being and a braver explorer and a wiser lover. And that one, at first glance, may have not as much initial appeal as some of the others. So your first task is to dig deep to identify the propositions that are attractive on the surface but not very substantial. Then you’re more likely to recognize the offer that will have lasting value even if it doesn’t make a spectacular first impression.

CAPRICORN Dec22–Jan19 “I find a lot of people physically attractive, but finding people mentally and spiritually attractive is different and much harder for me.” So says 40ozshawty on her Tumblr page. If you share that frustration, I have good news. According to my reading of the astrological omens, you’re due to encounter a higher-than-usual percentage of mentally and spiritually attractive people in the next six weeks. But I wonder how you’ll deal with this abundance. Will you run away from it, feeling overwhelmed by the prospect that your life could get more interesting and complicated? Or will you embrace it, daringly welcoming the interesting complications?

AQUARIUS Jan20–Feb18 I think you will generate good fortune for yourself by choosing between two equally invigorating but challenging tasks: losing your illusion or using your illusion.

Both are quite worthy of your attention and intelligence.

To succeed at either would fuel your emotional growth for months to come. You probably can’t do them both, however. So which will it be: Will you purge the illusion, or put it to work for you?

VIRGO Aug23–Sep22

PISCES Feb19–Mar20

In her late twenties, J. K. Rowling was a single mother living on welfare. That's when she began work on her Harry Potter books. Craig Newmark had turned 42 by the time he founded Craigslist. One of the world’s most oft-visited websites is HuffingtonPost.com, which Arianna Huffington established when she was 54. As for Harland Sanders, creator of KFC: He didn’t begin building the global empire of fried-chicken restaurants until the age of 65. I hope the preceding serves as a pep talk, Virgo, reminding you that it’s never too late to instigate the project of a lifetime. The time between now and your birthday in 2016 will be an especially favorable phase to do so. Start ruminating on what it might be.

Do you sometimes imagine yourself to be an underachieving underdog? If so, I suggest you start weaning yourself from that fantasy. Do you on occasion allow people to take advantage of you? It’s time to outgrow that role. Do you ever flirt with being a self-pitying martyr? Say bye-bye to that temptation. Cosmic forces are conspiring to relieve you of tendencies to act in any or all of those ways. I’m not saying you will instantly transform into a swashbuckling hero who knocks people over with your radiant self-assurance. But you will, at the very least, be ready to learn much, much more about how to wield your vulnerability as a superpower.

The removal of Deputy Clark as SCPD spokesman was a good first step. However, is Deputy Clark’s escalation of conflict rhetoric indicative of a larger problem in the department?

The communication responses from our police force should primarily be slanted toward conflict resolution, and specifically a de-escalation of the poor communication responses of Deputy Clark.

This process would skillfully facilitate dialogue where needed, as it would also engage in public truth telling, which includes responsibility for wrongdoing. It should also rely on seeing those of differing political persuasions as an honest opposition, something that Deputy Clark has

shown he is, so far and from his own words, incapable of always recognizing. And although the accusations of intimidation from Deputy Clark may be a “he said, she said,” suffice that the citizenry is now alerted to this possibility and can respond accordingly, as should our public officials, both elected and appointed. And it’s sad that it has come to this, as situations like this can and do undermine public confidence in our police force. If Deputy Clark is indeed “one of the finest and most dedicated officers on our local department,” as stated by Analicia Cube of TBSC, then let’s hope his actions from here on, toward all of our citizenry, become a justification of this recommendation.

GIFT FROM NATURE Wild chaga, which grows on birch trees, is a powerhouse of minerals, nutrients, antioxidants and

immune-stimulating compounds. PHOTO: MARIA GRUSAUSKAS

Chugging Chaga

Studies suggest wild mushroom stimulates immune response and fights cancer BY MARIA GRUSAUSKAS

S

everal months ago, my father began harvesting chaga conks from around his New England home— having read up on the mushroom’s anti-cancer properties—and was soon sending me copious amounts of it in the mail. To the naked eye, chaga doesn’t look like much. It’s a bark-like substance found growing on birch trees in cooler climates, with an amber-colored interior and a burly, black-brown outer shell that looks like burnt charcoal.

Though it’s often referred to as a mushroom, chaga was recently

reclassified as a member of the Hymenochaetaceae family, along with other woody botanicals that grow on the bark of decaying trees. Its relationship with birch trees is a symbiotic one: it grows on wounds, healing the tree while feeding on the nutrients and compounds of its host.

I didn’t appreciate its value immediately. Actually, I didn’t even make the tea he spoke so highly of until the day I opened my cupboard and an avalanche of chaga rained down on me. Now, I keep a regular batch steeping at all times, and offer it as a beverage option to anyone

who steps into my kitchen.

Broken into quarter-sized (or smaller) chunks, chaga tea is easy to make: simply steep in hot water until the water turns a coffee-black.

Boiling for a short period will give you a stronger steep, but boiling for too long will break up chaga’s rich supply of beta-glucans—naturally occurring polysaccharides known to increase immune defense by activating natural killer cell function, and helping the immune system to recognize cancer cells as “non-self.” Thus, a low 10-minute simmer is really all you need, but the longer it steeps, the

better—and some sources recommend steeping it for several days.

The tea can be purchased locally at Go Ask Alice on Pacific Avenue, and its draw goes well beyond its forestfloor taste. “[Chaga] predigests the birch’s nutrients, concentrating them in a form more readily available to humans,” says author Cass Ingram, M.D., a leading expert on the diseasefighting properties of wild medicinals.

“In essence, the chaga serves as a vital chemical factory for substances of great value to our health.”

To start, wild chaga is the world’s top source of the antioxidant enzyme superoxide dismutase (SOD), which neutralizes free radicals and prevents oxidative damage to cells. SOD levels in human tissue begin to decline naturally after the age of 30, making dietary sources extremely important.

With an Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity (ORAC) reading of 42,860 units per 3 ounces (anything above 500 is considered extremely powerful), chaga’s antioxidant capability exceeds even the powerful reishi mushroom by 50 times, and makes leafy greens seem like sawdust. It’s also loaded with B vitamins, minerals and sterols.

One of the most powerful constituents of chaga, though, is betulinic acid, which induces apoptosis, or programmed cell death, in cancer cells, and may have potent antitumor activity, according to a 2008 study published in the International Journal of Molecular Science, among others. Most of the scientific studies conducted on chaga since the 1950s have taken place in China, Japan, Korea, and Russia, but there have been five promising studies in North America, focusing on chaga’s ability to combat cancer and inhibit tumor growth, improve immune response and even moderate diabetes.

Ingram recommends taking chaga daily, along with wild oregano oil, which helps stimulate the absorption of chaga’s active ingredients. If you harvest it, leave some on the tree—it will grow back—and if you buy it, he says, be careful to avoid cheap synthetic imitations produced from vat-grown chaga. The best chaga comes from the wild.

Learning to draw is like learning to play an instrument. It’s not a mystery, and you don’t have to figure it out on your own. It takes practice but the rewards are magical. Somehow when it comes to the visual arts people tend to believe that if results don’t come to them naturally they lack talent.

Modern notions of originality and freedom of expression have left many would-be artists in the dark. The tradition of classical training in the visual arts, practically unavailable for a century, is making a welcomed come back. Classical training to play an instrument frees you to experience the pleasure and beauty of music. Classical training to draw is a way to experience the beauty you see and to convey your personal vision.

Santa Cruz Atelier is a place to discover and develop your talent. The word “atelier” is French for workshop and refers to a tradition of training in a master’s studio.

Instructor Lisa Joseph was trained at the Aristides Atelier with contemporary master Juliette Aristides. Studying with Lisa can connect you to a lineage reaching back for ages to Classical Greece.

The classes and workshops at Santa Cruz Atelier will provide beginning and advanced students alike with methods to develop skills that will last a lifetime. The only requirement is the desire to learn. You will surprise yourself.

Meaner Streets?

Reports conflict on whether Santa Cruz’s homeless problem is getting worse or better BY MAT WEIR

I

t’s 7:45 on a Tuesday morning in Santa Cruz. The fog has lifted, but the air is still crisp, and people huddle together underneath layers of tattered coats.

Thirty people have gathered outside the meal hall at the Homeless Services Center’s shelter, located at 115 Coral St., but within 20 minutes that number doubles. It’s breakfast time and while most people keep to themselves— trying to focus on the upcoming meal instead of the cold—others wander outside the line, smoking cigarettes to kill time.

As the growing line begins to move, many eyes move to the mail room wall, which is plastered with handwritten notes like, “Juan, call your mother”

Within the hour, well over 100 people are fed a meal of milk, pancakes, apple sauce and cereal or oatmeal. One can only imagine where they will go after HSC shuts down its shower and meal services to outside individuals this week.

“I’ll tell you one thing, it’s going to mean a lot of homeless in people’s backyards,” says Andy Carcello. The 58-year-old native Santa Cruzan tries to stay positive, but his sun-wrinkled eyes betray uncertainty. Born the son of a pharmacist and the grandson of a local farmer, Carcello never married or had children, and he’s spent most of his life in the area.

“It seemed like we just started

getting Santa Cruz cleaned up,” Carcello says. “If you walked down the Pacific Garden Mall it was orderly. You know, I’d go and have a burrito in the San Lorenzo Park and it was clean. But now, with everyone dumped out in the street like this, it won’t be that way.”

For the past four years Carcello has been an active resident at the Homeless Services Center. However, as of July 5, he and 14 others will be evicted from the Center’s temporary Page Smith housing.

In addition to the evictions and closing the kitchen and showers to outside individuals, 17 staff members were laid off, including security, program managers and case managers.

SANTACRUZ.COM | GTWEEKLY.COM | JULY 1-7, 2015

One morning, I walked out of my house to find a bright orange boot on the front tire of my 2007 Chevy Malibu. After five delinquent tickets over the course of a year, the pesky pink envelope that once hid a $58 fine turned into an angry bright orange boot.

For weeks, I had spent my days off moving my car every two hours to avoid getting a parking ticket in front of my own home. I learned that if you sleep in a little too late, they will catch you.

At 9 a.m., I sat down in front of my car defeated, and tried to imagine every way possible to remove the ugly metal contraption. I tugged on it, kicked it, took a screwdriver to it, and even considered bolt cutters. For three days, my car sat adorned with its badge of shame. The $800 fine cost me an entire paycheck, most of my very small savings and a bit of my dignity.

As difficult as it is to find parking in neighborhoods, it’s worse for people who work and shop downtown.

Anna Coloma, 20, who works at Jamba Juice, has to work about two hours to pay for her week’s parking—and that’s not counting the tickets that pile up.

“I’ve gotten two tickets while at work, and I probably spend $20 a week on parking,” she says. “One time, I parked in the threehour lot for five hours, because my usual garage was too full. I thought maybe I’d get away with it, but that was a $45 ticket.”

Parking enforcement officers booted 109 cars in 2014 and towed 16 of those, earning $55,679 in fines. It has booted 31 cars and towed four in the first quarter of 2015. Money from fines goes to the city’s general fund, which pays for all kinds of city services, including police, fire and buildings.

Money from downtown parking meters funds four garages and street parking.

The city collected more than $6 million at parking meters and garages last year.

Three million of that total revenue comes from downtown and funds the downtown parking operation at a $200,000 deficit.

The downtown parking operation’s $3.2 million budget includes $2.2 million for

Here is what clients are saying about All Pets: “Dr. Cholden and staff are excellent. I called, as a new patient, and explained that my sick dog, Turbo, needed immediate attention and the receptionist booked an appointment that very same day.

When I arrived I was greeted with such kindness and caring for Turbo, that really helped to comfort me. Dr. Cholden came in to examine Turbo and was very caring and thorough spending a lot of time to explain everything to me and what was needed to get him back to health. He called the next morning to see how Turbo was doing and later that day to tell me about his blood work. I completely trust him for future appointments regarding Turbo’s healing.”

of $650,000 in emergency grant funds that have been awarded to the shelter for the past decade.

“There were a couple of factors that didn’t allow us access to the grants,” says HSC Executive Director Jannan Thomas.

One of these factors seems to be purely bureaucratic.

“Our reports are [represented] by individuals, not by households or heads of households,” Thomas explains. “So [the state] ended up discounting that data and not considering it at all. The state knew there was an issue in how they wanted the data reported versus how it was coming out of the Homeless Management Information System.

They tried providing some technical assistance, but we couldn’t figure out how to do it on our end to make it work in the way the state wanted.”

Other factors included a low rate of residents moving from emergency shelters into permanent housing.

“That means, moving forward, we’re going to have to run our shelter a little differently,” says Thomas. “We can only take people into the shelter who have an identified pathway to housing.

We know that’s difficult because we give access to Section 8 vouchers, but they require a year’s worth of case management to utilize them. However,

there aren’t enough case managers in the county for people to use all the vouchers.”

With two more case managers being laid off at HSC due to the budget cuts, this means even more people will be bottlenecked in an already strained system.

HSC is divided up into different sections of the campus: the Paul Lee Loft houses 50 and serves as emergency housing; the Rebele Family Shelter holds 27 families and provides temporary shelter for 180 days; the Recuperative Care Center holds 12 adults and provides 24-hour care for at-risk individuals; the Page Smith Community provides transitional housing for 40 people for up to 24 months; and the Daytime Essential Services Center provides breakfast and dinner and showers along with the computer and mail rooms.

“Frankly, I think it’s the administration’s fault,” Carcello states bluntly. “Not only a mismanagement of funds, but I think there’s a total inexperience with the actual homeless condition. We’re seeing people here in the administration who don’t want to even mingle with the homeless, let alone have any understanding of what it means to be homeless.”

Like many using HSC’s services, Carcello says he wants to work, but has a hard time finding it.

“I have compression fractures. I don’t have a left hip joint. I have two reconstructions in my right leg that didn’t work out well and I have a restricted heart valve,” he says. “And they’re talking about me getting out of here on July 5.”

Once the eviction notices were served, things quickly began to fall apart.

“Michael Todd, who was a very dear friend of mine in this trailer, was very sick with a heart condition,” Carcello says. “They gave him a 60-day notice and he freaked out. He went to pieces, had a massive heart attack and died.”

Residents also blame the recent death of Dene Shaw on the trauma of the eviction. The 59-year-old woman, who had a history of substance abuse, was killed by a hit-and-run driver at Highway 1 and River Street on June 12, shortly after receiving an immediate eviction notice.

“She was kicked out, even though she was paying rent,” says resident Robert Leland-Horrocks. “I thought you couldn’t kick anyone out without a 30-days notice, and now she’s dead.”

Thomas denies the deaths are a result of the funding cuts and evictions.

“I don’t think receiving the eviction notices was necessarily a causation,” Thomas says. “There were other situations the person who >18

CIAO, LUCIO The restaurant scene just got a whole lot quieter with the passing of flamboyant chef Lucio Fanni, 66, who has run Caffe Lucio on Soquel Avenue for the past nine years, following two decades of owning restaurants in San Francisco and Santa Cruz.

From the minute he arrived in town, oh, around 20 years ago, Lucio blazed a culinary trail that will live long in our hearts and taste buds. Who could forget Fanni’s larger-than-life presence in the kitchen, where he would gesture, laugh, and sing loudly at whatever fabulous sauce he was making?

I know I’ll never forget my first dinner at Lucio’s, back when he had just arrived and occupied a tiny dining room on the ocean side of Seabright Avenue. From his tempting menu, we selected a rustic dish of fettuccine with potatoes and herbs, and sat back with a bottle of wine until our food arrived. The wine was long gone, and the colorful chef—his hair a wild mass of silver encircling his head—had jumped up and down on more than one table before our dinner finally arrived. With his steaming sauté pans, endless high spirits, and brilliant cooking skills, he knew he was the main attraction. Even though we were

tipsy, we knew we were enjoying a brilliant pasta made by a master.

Armed with patience and appetite, most of Santa Cruz was lucky enough to feast at his hearth. In the best tradition of irrepressible cuisine artists, he was a complete original. He’s probably riding that Ducati somewhere in heaven.

Caffe Lucio will stay open, as he would have wished, writes his wife Mirjam Kuusik on their Facebook page. CHRISTINA WATERS

faster Internet service to Santa Cruz. The council voted last week to explore a partnership with Cruzio for the Santa Cruz Fiber Project, which would boost local Internet speeds by 50 times and replace copper wires with fiber optics. The city’s development manager J. Guevara says it could bring more high-tech businesses here. They are exploring a partnership where the expenses would be picked up by fees from Internet users.

The city ranks 447 out of 505 California cities for Internet speed, according to Guevara.

80 people’s salaries—paying those who work to maintain the parking garages and their bathrooms and collect garbage from the lots. This doesn’t include the seven parking enforcement officers, whose salary comes from another fund.

Santa Cruz sells 1,779 off-street permits and 150 permits for meters at $33 a month (going up to $35 in January), but it takes several months to more than a year to get one. City parking chief Marlin Granlund says they can’t sell any more because it would cut into spaces available for visitors.

For 18-year-old Mission Hill Creamery employee Marisa Lester, there is no point.

“I work three or four days a week, and my shifts are usually five or six hours,” Lester

says. “I just park in the lot behind and pay.

I live in Live Oak, and sometimes I have to get here an hour early just to make sure I get a spot. If I don’t find one then I call the store and let everyone know I’m out looking for parking. Everyone is pretty understanding, because we all know how it is.”

There are 4,294 parking spaces downtown—831 on the street, 2,151 in garages and the rest in private lots. There is roughly 70,000 square feet of open office space waiting to be filled, which will require even more spaces. A study conducted in 2010 showed that there was a deficit of almost 700 parking spaces in downtown Santa Cruz—but it’s probably even worse with the growing economy, says Granlund.

It costs 50 cents an hour to park in the

city’s lots and $5 a day. Meters vary from 50 cents to $1 for the first hour and as much as $2 an hour after that. The city has phased out much of its free parking, converting its once multiple free lots to pay-by-space lots one by one.

Is there any hope?

The city is considering a new garage for as many as 800 cars, but the timetable is uncertain.

“It could take about five years,” explains Downtown Commission Chairman Jesse Nickell. “If we are really aggressive about it, maybe two years.”

Meanwhile, the city is spending $2 million over the course of the next two years maintaining two garages at River and Cedar streets that are leaking and deteriorating.

Three possible locations for a new

garage include Cedar and Cathcart streets, Front and Cathcart streets and by the new Metro transit center. Each space in a garage costs $35,000-$45,000 to build, or about $30 million for 800 spaces.

Granlund had another idea that flopped.

He was going to rent 60 spaces at the Holy Cross Church at 126 High Street and charge $20 a month for a space. He called everyone on the waiting list for a permit, but only five were interested. It wasn’t enough.

“We’re finding that a lot of people don’t have a Monday through Friday 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. job anymore, so it’s not working for them,” says Granlund. “It’s also at the top of the mall about three blocks out, so it’s not able to serve the people at the southern end of the mall where there’s not enough parking.”

had a heart attack experienced, and the situation with the tragic hit-andrun accident I also do not think was related to eviction notices.”

Despite the recent losses, some of the news coming from HSC is positive.

Since the cutbacks were announced, the county has provided a year’s worth of funding to keep the mail room open.

The county also gave an emergency $214,000 to keep the Paul Lee Loft open for an extra six months.

“We don’t have as many funding sources as a city [compared to the county],” says Santa Cruz Mayor Don Lane. “But we still have a few possibilities.”

All of this follows on the heels of two conflicting reports released by the County of Santa Cruz and the Santa Cruz Grand Jury.

In their report entitled “Recipe for Failure: Shrinking Budgets and Increasing Needs for Emergency Homeless Shelters,” the Grand Jury reported, “The existing emergency shelters are unable to meet the needs of the local homeless population, providing temporary housing to only 18 percent, leaving 82 percent unsheltered per 2013 data.” They concluded that homelessness is on the rise due to a lack of affordable housing, vagrancy laws that penalize the homeless and a lack of funding.

Yet, on June 24, Santa Cruz County’s biennial census concluded homelessness has decreased by 44.5 percent county-wide since 2013. The census also states that the City of Santa Cruz has seen a decrease of 38.5 percent in the last two years.

Regardless of which report is more accurate, the fact remains that the loss of emergency funds at HSC will mean a more visible homeless population.

“We’re going to see more people who used to spend time at the Homeless Services Center be in other public spaces around the community and that will probably cause alarm,” says Lane. “It’s interesting because some folks who are concerned about homelessness have also felt the HSC was somehow responsible for homelessness in Santa Cruz. They’ve wished the center would cut back services, and now that it’s going to happen, it’s possible some of those folks will be unhappy with their wish coming true.”

heat of California’s inland valleys.

On Saturday, July 18, 1885, however, the “buffeting” was not so “merry,” as a huge summer swell crashed along the local beaches, bringing into Monterey Bay what the Santa Cruz Sentinel called “the biggest breakers of the season.” A “party of bathers from Woodland were rolled under,” the newspaper reported, as “only red stockings could be seen protruding out of the water.”

One young boy was “dashed against a buoy with so much force as to bruise his legs.”

The Sentinel conducted an interview with one of the visitors who had been rolled by the swell. “When the first breaker came, I picked up a woman who I thought was my wife, but I soon found out I was mistaken, and I dropped her quicker’n a hot cake,” he asserted. When the third breaker hit him, he said, “I thought I was gone,” but he “felt a grip on his collar” and had been saved by none other than Santa Cruz waterman W.H. Daily, widely acclaimed as the “Champion Swimmer in America” and a beloved swimming instructor on the Santa Cruz waterfront for more than decade.

Santa Cruz was a beach-and-surf town even in the 1880s. By the following decade, it would be widely known throughout the state as Surf City.

T

he following day, waves would play a central role in another event taking place on the local waterfront, this time an event making global history. The

Surff reported that “Sunday afternoon at the beach was one of the liveliest of the season.

It was warm, very warm, but tempered by a breeze, which made the heat endurable and kept people good-natured.” It described the promenade along Beach Street as a “bright and moving picture of itself,” as each of the local streetcars brought “a full load to join the gay groups already on the sand.”

On no other Sunday of the season, the Surff assessed, “have so many bathers, both ladies and gentlemen, been in the water, and all pronounced it delightful.” There was an exciting ocean race that afternoon between a pair of swimming brothers—William and Irvine Jones—with William winning by 20 yards and collecting $40, a substantial purse for that era. A small theatrical troupe, including an undersized donkey pulling a miniature cart, performed a comedy routine along the breakers and “afforded much merriment to the spectators.”

Further east along the beach, however, at the mouth of the San Lorenzo River, an exhibition of a different type was taking place, one never before witnessed in the Americas. Three Hawaiian princes—David Kawananakoa, Edward Keliiahonui and Jonah Kuhio Kalaniana'ole—were in the water with long surfboards made of local redwoods, and milled in the shape of traditional Hawaiian olo boards, reserved in the Hawaiian islands traditionally for royalty.

he Santa Cruz waterfront was bustling with activity during the early weeks of July 1885. The South Pacific Coast Railroad had been completed in 1880—linking Santa Cruz not only to the far reaches of the state, but also to the entire country—and summertime tourism was emerging as an important piston in the city’s economic engine, filling the hotels on Pacific Avenue and Beach Hill to capacity.

Ice cream, cold cider and lemonade were now being served at the Free Museum on the Main Beach, and large crowds were drawn to saltwater spas prominently advertised by the Dolphin, Neptune, and Long Branch bath houses. Baseball games between the local Olympic and Riverside teams drew large crowds to what was known as “Leibrandt’s Lot,” directly across from the bath houses in Beach Flats.

As early as the 1870s, “surf swimming,” as it was called, had become one of the most popular attractions in the bourgeoning tourist Mecca. One account from the Santa Cruz Daily Surff in June of 1885 noted that “the beach and the surf were both at their best on Sunday afternoon, the breakers with their white crests, beautiful enough to delight the genuine sea lover … Late in the afternoon, a large party of swimmers went into the water, a number of our best lady swimmers being among them.”

The Surf’s editor Arthur A. Taylor observed that visitors like to enjoy “the merry buffeting of the waves” as they escaped the sweltering

The Coastal Watershed Council envisions the San Lorenzo River as a healthy watershed connected to a vibrant community. To accomplish this ambitious goal the Coastal Watershed Council (CWC) founded the San Lorenzo River Alliance in December 2013 to transform Santa Cruz County’s relationship with its largest watershed from one of apathy to one of respect, restoration and recreation.

CWC is engaging community members and working with local leaders to boldly transform a distinct lower section of the river into a thriving urban park that enhances habitat and recreational opportunities. Successes along the lower river will lay the groundwork for essential watershed restoration along the entire river and throughout California’s Central Coast.

As many as 30 or 40 swimmers were out in the water with them, â&#x20AC;&#x153;dashing and tossing, and plunging through the breakers, going out only to be tossed back apparently at the will of the waves and making some nervous onlookers feel sure that they were about to be dashed against the rocks.â&#x20AC;?

One of the princes, the Surf noted, later injured himself that afternoon jumping from the â&#x20AC;&#x153;railway bridgeâ&#x20AC;? a few hundred yards up the river, â&#x20AC;&#x153;but the water proved too shallow, and he was stunned and breathless for some time after.â&#x20AC;?

The day, however, ended triumphantly. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The evening was quite as delightful as the afternoon,â&#x20AC;? the newspaper concluded. At the mouth of the San Lorenzo, where the princes had earlier performed their surfing exhibition, â&#x20AC;&#x153;the Santa Cruz City Band played its finest airs by the light of an immense bonfire, and boating was the order of the evening. Guitar music and singing added to the charm of the scene and the hours sped all too rapidly.â&#x20AC;?

Point commemorating the princes’ visit here, and published the first detailed account of not only their presence in Santa Cruz but also of the larger social network that originally linked them to this community. Last year, we added to our historical findings in the Museum of Art & History’s History Journal No.7, A Split History.

Littlefield had indicated that the surfing princes had brought the special redwood olo boards they had made here in Santa Cruz back to the islands with them. It made sense, but there had been no documentation of their return.

We surmised that Littlefield obtained the information through one of his friends—either legendary Hawaiian surfer Duke Kahanamoku, who was close to the princes and visited Santa Cruz three times during his career; or local journalist Ernest Otto, who was 25 at the time of the princes’ arrival in 1885 and had written about them frequently in the 1940s and 1950s. While we continued to uncover significant details about the princes and their extensive social connection to Santa Cruz over the years, we had been unable to locate the boards.

We wrote the Bishop Museum in Honolulu asking if they had access to any records of the princes surfing in Santa Cruz. They didn’t—or more precisely, they didn’t realize that they did.

Then, in April of 2012, after going through the archived holdings of the Bishop, surfing historian Mac Reed, who was raised in Santa Cruz and now lives in Montana, purchased a special membership to the Bishop and was allowed to make a specific request to view a pair of artifacts located in storage, which he thought might be related to the princes’ visit. What Reed found, in essence, was the Holy Grail of local surfing: two redwood olo surfboards, one belonging to Kuhio and the other to Kawananakoa, that had been bequeathed to the Bishop by Kuhio’s widow, Elizabeth, in 1923 as part of the Kapiolani-Kalaniana'ole family collections.

It was a stunning and historic

discovery. “I was impressed,” said Reed from his home in Montana.

“Finally, the story all came together.”

Prince Jonah’s redwood olo was 17 feet 2.5 inches and weighed 150 pounds; Prince David’s board was even larger, 17 feet 9.5 inches, and weighed in at 175 pounds. Both, according to an appraisal provided for the museum, had “numerous small dings that were consistent with use.” Moreover, the appraisal identified the olos as holding “a special provenance and significance to the sport of surfing”—these were the boards that had been “milled in the shape of traditional Hawaiian olo boards” and had been ridden by the princes in Santa Cruz 130 years ago this summer.

What was even more remarkable was that the information in Littlefield’s dusty files on the surfboards was very close to the mark: According to his records, the princes rode surfboards made of “solid redwood planks and milled locally by the Grover Lumber Company. They were over 100 pounds in weight and 15 feet in length.”

Now, the two boards found in storage at the Bishop Museum are coming home, completing an amazing historical journey that links the ancient Hawaiian sport of surfing with the ancient redwood groves of the Santa Cruz Mountains.

It’s a history that brought Hawaiian royalty to Santa Cruz, not just once, but several times over a period of four years. It’s also a narrative that includes a high-seas tale of fraud and larceny.

In the center of this history is a strong and powerful woman of color living in 19th-century Santa Cruz, a Yankee community that was constantly challenged by racial hostilities. And perhaps most significantly, it’s a tale of a cultural exchange that was first presented as a gift to the citizens of Santa Cruz that caught hold and then flourished on the northern rim of Monterey Bay for more than a century.

The history of the three princes in Santa Cruz is a tale that has

THE BOARDS ARE BACK IN TOWN <24 continued to unfold, decade by decade, year by year, day by day.

After Mac Reed’s initial discovery, one of the authors of this story, Kim Stoner, met with the Museum of Art & History’s director, Nina Simon, and Marla Novo, the curator of collections, who negotiated yet another cultural exchange—this time with the Bishop Museum—so that the two olos, first shaped and ridden here in 1885, are now returning home, to be on display at MAH beginning Friday, July 3, and continuing until Oct. 27 (see sidebar).

It promises to make for a monumental exhibit. There will be talks and walks, a special paddle-out commemorating the 130th anniversary of the princes exhibition, and a first-of-its-kind demonstration at Cowell Beach, in which local surfers will ride a broad spectrum of traditional Hawaiian boards shaped by legendary local shaper Bob Pearson of Pearson Arrow Surfboards (with redwood provided by Bud and Lud McCrary of Big Creek Lumber and local surfer Randy Gray).

Now, 130 years after the princes rode redwood boards at the mouth of the San Lorenzo, the olos are coming full circle—from Santa Cruz to Honolulu, and back again.

T

She was born in Honolulu, Hawaii,

Not all of the information in the Surf obituary was accurate, but it was close enough to provide both an open window into her life story and enough clues to put the various pieces of this intricate historic puzzle back together. In many respects, Antoinette Swan served as the social and cultural linchpin to the three princes’ story and to the origins of surfing in the Americas.

According to baptismal records in Hawaii and her death certificate here in Santa Cruz, Antoinette “Akoni” Marin was born on the island of Oahu on Oct. 6, 1832.

Contrary to the reference in the obituary, her mother, Kaikuloa, was a full-blooded Hawaiian and a “chiefess,” which made Antoinette, by birth, of “ali’i,” or noble Hawaiian lineage.

In November of 1851, an item in the Honolulu Polynesian newspaper noted that 19-year-old Antoinette had married Lyman Swan, then a young businessman on the Honolulu waterfront. He was a partner in Swan & Clifford, a seemingly successful chandlery business that fitted out whaling ships during the heyday of the Pacific whaling industry and the era of Moby Dick.

(Indeed, a young Herman Melville had worked for Antoinette’s hanai brother-in-law, Isaac Montgomery, during his four-month sojourn in Honolulu.)

Apparently, unbeknownst to his partner, Ornan Clifford, Swan began forging “bills of exchange” (or checks) with several whaling ships.

He was also accused of short-selling coal. On April 13, 1855, authorities in Hawaii issued a wanted poster charging both Swan and Clifford with forging $40,000 in promissory notes and leaving more than $80,000 in unpaid bills just after Swan had snuck out of Honolulu on a merchant ship. It was a huge amount of money

wenty years after the princes arrived here in Santa Cruz, a lengthy obituary appeared in the Surf on Oct. 2, 1905, for “Mrs. Antoinette Don Paul Marie Swan,” who had died the day before at her family home on Cathcart Street.

The obituary noted that Swan “was courtly in manner, and had a charm in her dealing with people that won many friends. She was a kind neighbor and a devoted mother, loved by her children.”

She was clearly a well-liked and widely respected member of the community.

The obituary also included some detailed information about Antoinette’s lineage, rather unique to Santa Cruz at this time:

of Spanish parentage on her father’s side, he being for many years consul from Spain at Honolulu, and owner of the island at the mouth of the Pearl River, and was very prominent in the islands … Her mother was of Scotch and Hawaiian ancestry.

<27 during that era—the equivalent of millions today—and the case quickly garnered international attention.

A $5,000 reward was offered for information on their whereabouts.

While Clifford immediately returned to Honolulu and declared his innocence (several supporters in Hawaii signed a letter on his behalf), Swan was apprehended on a ship in Alameda, California. All of the forged bills had been executed in his handwriting. While Hawaiian authorities tried to extradite Swan, he was never to return to the islands. He endured several years of both civil and criminal court cases against him in San Francisco, and was found guilty on several charges.

Somehow, he managed to bring Antoinette and his daughter Lily to California during his various court

cases. The family first resided in San Jose, and then moved to Santa Cruz in the mid-1860s. By that time, there were five children in the Swan household.

A native of New York and originally a baker by trade, Swan returned to his roots and opened a restaurant and, later, a bakery on Pacific Avenue. He was dubbed by the Sentinel as the “king of good dishes.”

By the time of the arrival of the three princes in 1885, the Swans were popular and widely respected pillars of the Santa Cruz business community. The family purchased a large plot of land in downtown Santa Cruz, at what is now the corner of Front and Cathcart streets, that backed up to the San Lorenzo River.

In fact, Lyman Swan was so

There was never any mention in any local documents or newspaper accounts of the criminal activity that forced him to leave Hawaii and led to his quiet relocation to the northern sweep of Monterey Bay.

T

he second half of the 19th century was a time of profound cultural and political transition in Hawaii. The globalization of the world economy brought ever-increasing outside pressure on the islands and forged changes internally as well.

In 1884, the popular Hawaiian monarchs, King David Kalakaua and his wife, Queen Consort Esther Julia Kapiâ&#x20AC;&#x2DC;olani, who were childless, adopted the three princes after the deaths of both their parents. By blood, the three brothers were Kapiâ&#x20AC;&#x2DC;olaniâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nephews, the sons of aliâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;i from Kauai, and they had been sent to Hawaiiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s finest schools. Now they were being prepped for the monarchy.

David, the oldest (nicknamed â&#x20AC;&#x153;Koaâ&#x20AC;?), was born in 1868. Strong and handsome, at the age of 16, in the fall of 1884, he was first sent to St. Matthewâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hall in San Mateoâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;a full-fledged military school for boys founded by the stern and â&#x20AC;&#x153;never smilingâ&#x20AC;? Episcopalian taskmaster, Rev. Alfred Lee Brewer. The following year, Edward, born in 1870 and the frailest of the three brothers; and Jonah, nicknamed â&#x20AC;&#x153;Cupid,â&#x20AC;? born in 1871 and a brilliant athlete in all sports, joined their older brother in California.

It has long been assumed that the princes were here only once, during that seminal summer of 1885, but it was recently discovered that they were in Santa Cruz several times up until November of 1889, when David and Jonah were identified in the Sentinel as visiting with the Swans.

As early as July 12, 1885, it was noted that the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Olympic Rink [located downtown] was honored by the presence of the Hawaiian

princes, who received their first lesson in roller skating. They fell down about as many times as ordinary individuals. A pair of skates has no respect for rank.

They level all persons who canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t skate.â&#x20AC;? Their subsequent visits to the Swansâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; homeâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;and their various activities while hereâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;were chronicled in dozens of newspaper accounts over the following months and years.

It would be doing a significant disservice to the historical record, however, to suggest that life at the Swan house was a bed of white ginger blossomsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;for the princes or for the Swans themselves. In fact, the Swan marriage was a decidedly unhappy one. Lyman Swanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s larceny may have long been hidden from the Santa Cruz community, but he couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hide it from from Antoinette, whom he had shamed with his activities in Honolulu. She decided to return to the islands for lengthy periods of time, where she served as a special assistant to the royal family.

T

here is a perfect geographic logic to the princes surfing in Santa Cruz, one that leads to another immigration story, though from an entirely different direction.

Just as the Hawaiian princes had perfected the art of surfing in Hawaii, the Grover family, of Dutch lineage (their original name had been spelled â&#x20AC;&#x153;Groebenâ&#x20AC;?) learned logging in their native Maine, where their father, Elijah Grover, owned and operated a lumber mill. They brought that knowledge with them to California.

Lured originally by the prospect of gold in the Sierra, Whitney Grover, the first of several Grover family members to migrate west, arrived in California in 1848. Several other family members followed, crossing the Isthmus of Panama together in 1850.

A trio of Groversâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;Stephen Frealon â&#x20AC;&#x153;Godfreyâ&#x20AC;? Grover; James Lyman Grover; and Dwight Grover (eldest son of James)â&#x20AC;&#x201D;eventually settled in Santa Cruz County in the early 1860s, where they began

THE BOARDS ARE BACK IN TOWN <30 their first major logging operation along Bates Creek in Soquel. Over the course of the next decade, the Grovers expanded their lumber operations to redwood tracts along Soquel Creek, Porter Gulch, Laguna, Ben Lomond, Bear Creek, Boulder Creek, and the Hepsidam region of Bean Creek (near Scotts Valley).

According to one newspaper account, the Grover & Co. enterprise was among â&#x20AC;&#x153;one of the best known in the state,â&#x20AC;? generating vast sums of wealth. During the 1870s and 1880s, the three Grovers built a trio of ornate mansions on Walnut Avenue in Santa Cruz, all designed by architect John Williams, adjacent to present day Grover Lane (across from Santa Cruz High School).

In June of 1882, the Grovers purchased a lumber tract along Clear Creek (above what would later be known as Brookdale), where they initiated extensive lumber operations. In August of the following year, Grover & Co. began operation of a large lumber yard and planing mill near downtown Santa Cruz, located along a spur of the South Pacific Coast Railroad at the jagged bend of lower Pacific Avenue (near its present-day juncture with Center Street).

Most significant to this story, the Grover lumberyard was located less than a half-mile from the Swan family home on Cathcart Street, where, more than likely, the princes would have continued to refine the shape of the boards with draw knives. From there, the Swansâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; immediate proximity to the San Lorenzo River would have made the transport of these 150-pound-plus boards easily facilitated downstream to the river mouth.

S

ome surfing historians have dismissed the account of the three Hawaiian princes surfing in Santa Cruz by either denying that the event ever happened or deriding it as a one-off occurrence without long-lasting historic or cultural significance.

The extensively documented

history of the princesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; activities hereâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;along with the olo surfboards to be on display at MAH over the next four monthsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; belie such contentions.

Perhaps most importantly, the experiences of the three princes surfing here in Santa Cruz played a significant role in the history of surfing. A decade after their departure, there are verified accounts that their surfing exhibition â&#x20AC;&#x153;stuckâ&#x20AC;? here in Santa Cruz long after they were gone. In July of 1896, the weekly edition of the Santa Cruz Surf made the fascinating observation that â&#x20AC;&#x153;the boys who go in swimming at Seabright Beach use surfboards to ride the breakers, like the Hawaiians.â&#x20AC;?

Of equal significance, we now know with certainty that the redwood olo boards that they rode here in Santa Cruzâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;milled from first-growth redwood trees from the Santa Cruz Mountainsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;went back with them to Honolulu, where, for the next 40 years or more, redwood shipped from Northern California across the Pacific Ocean became the primary material for the construction of Hawaiian surfboards.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s yet another circle in this story. A â&#x20AC;&#x153;one-offâ&#x20AC;? this was not.

FEATURES When in the course of human events, a big holiday that started out as a celebration of independence becomes yet another opportunity for rampant consumer exploitation, we, here in the many somewhat united states, in Santa Cruz, declare that have a lot to celebrate. An eclectic and diverse melting pot of Independent artists are expressing life, and taking creative liberties so that we can pursue the happiness that that our forefathers and howevermanymothers could have only dreamed of back in the seventies.

So before you fill yourself up with fireworks and before the barbeque explodes in the summer sky, take a night to celebrate the great independent businesses who spring for the bill and protect your rights to First Friday Freedom on this Third of July.

night, it should be every night.”

The blues were a natural marriage with the traditional barbecue coming out of his kitchen, says Ingram, but also with this part of town. “The first night we had live music here the Blues Festival was going on, and that’s actually when it dawned on me that this is our thing, we need to run with this,” Ingram says.

Ever since that aha moment, Ingram has worked to promote a music-friendly ambiance, expanding the dining room and stage area in 2012, and refinishing the walls and ceiling with salvaged redwood boards to improve the acoustics.

“We don’t do anything larger than a trio,” says Ingram. “We’re really looking to stick to this intimate vibe.

We don’t want to blast people out with a full band.”

since 1998

Al Frisby, one of Aptos St. BBQ’s regular blues acts, is a one-manband with a wealth of rare and archetypal Americana songs stored in his cellular memory, most of them from the Deep South. He reaches for a different instrument at the start of each one.

“These songs I do are all the spices you would need to make a pot of American music,” he says.

Tonight, he’s surrounded by six guitars, including a hollow-bodied Hawaiian guitar and a resophonic steel guitar, an electric mandolin, accordion, 35-pound banjo and several shakers he hands out to willing listeners. Oh, and also, a pair of Italian boots, which house two feet that never stop moving—his stomps and taps amplified by a mic he rigs up beneath the stage just before the hungry crowd arrives.

For Frisby, the hollow wooden

stage at Aptos St. BBQ is a godsend of percussive tone, and he leaves his drums at home.

“I’m from New Orleans, I need to hear that bass drum kickin’, especially to play horns or what not,” he says.

As a full-time musician, Frisby’s survival depends on club owners like Ingram who see something special in a type of music that “the majority of society would walk right by,” he says. It seems unlikely that they would, though, as Frisby can captivate an entire room with nothing more than his voice, claps and stomps.

“I told Larry when he hired me three years ago, ‘Larry, these people don’t know this music. What are you doing?’” says Frisby. “And he said ‘We’re gonna teach them, we’re gonna provide an environment that you don’t see much, give them music that they don’t see much and give them something really special.’”

Other local performers gracing the Aptos St. BBQ stage include Delta bluesman Lloyd Whitney; Christopher Watkins, a.k.a. Preacher Boy; and the downhome-styled Hawk N’ Blues Mechanics.

As we leave the show, Frisby is promising to take the audience “down the back road” as he launches into a field shout by Son House called “Don’t You Mind People Grinnin’ in Your Face.” Frisby has explained to me how the call-andresponse vocals of the field shout were originally augmented by the boom, crack rhythm of railroad and field work, and now it echoes with our steps on the tracks all the way back home.

INFO: Music is 6-8 p.m., seven nights a week, plus 1-4 p.m. on Saturday at Aptos St. BBQ, 8059 Aptos St., Aptos, 662-1721, aptosstbbq.com.

Bryan McPherson’s latest album packed with the emotional, personal and political BY AARON CARNES

D

isney owns the House of Blues in Anaheim, and they have been known to ban musicians before they even play there due to objectionable material. At least, that’s what they did to folk troubadour Bryan McPherson, who plays the Crepe Place this Friday. While opening for the Dropkick Murphys last year, he was told he wouldn’t be allowed to do the Anaheim show because of his “anti-political police views and drug insinuation.”

Certainly, the most surprising aspect to this story is that someone

at Disney actually took the time to research McPherson beforehand, and read his lyrics. The thing is, Disney actually has a point: McPherson is openly against everything that Disney stands for— you know, big corporations in bed with the government screwing over the ever-shrinking middle class.

McPherson’s latest record, Wedgewood, is a fierce record, inspired by his time in 2011 as part of the Occupy Oakland movement, and it features plenty of material for Disney to hate. The song names say

it all: “Burn it Down,” “Here We Go,” “Days of Rage.”

The material on the record isn’t strictly political. McPherson mixes social observations with stories of travel, self-discovery, love, and heartbreak. It’s vibrant folk music recorded simply and stripped down, but sprinkled with some backing vocals, piano, violin, and other little flourishes from song to song.

The album is a snapshot into McPherson’s life in 2011, when he moved to the East Bay from Boston and got heavily involved with the

local music scene and the Occupy movement, and apparently fell in love with someone, then out of love. He then moved to Los Angeles, and took a big step forward into being a full-time touring musician. It’s all on the record.

There’s rarely a division between personal and political in his songs.

McPherson observes himself and the world around him in one breath, and does so with a powerful, emotive voice and vivid imagery. Some songs lean more obviously into political territory like on “Days of Rage,” (“Fists clenched in blood/ With Occupy signs/ Beaten and broken/ By the FBI/ Calling America the homeland/ Kind of reminds me of the Nazis”), but these are on-thestreet reports by a man that was part of the movement.

I find his more personal material stronger. Opener “Born on a Highway” touches on his decision to be a full-time touring musician, and it touches on his true rambling spirit. (“Some of us come lost/ Gotta get found.”) The lyrics border on corny, but McPherson is so earnest, and his voice is so passionate, that it works. Actually, his voice is his greatest asset. I’ve seen him silence a full bar singing a song a capella.

If there was a weakness I felt McPherson struggled with in the past, it was his lack of dynamics.

He sang energetic folk songs at near constant full volume with heavy vibrato that sometimes got grating. On Wedgewood, McPherson exercises a lot more restraint. “Born on a Highway” is a quiet song, sung almost entirely in a low hushed voice, and yet it’s one of his strongest. He recorded the record in a friend’s cabin in the mountains over a three-month period, so maybe the peace and tranquility of nature rubbed off on the tunes, though even the mellower songs are packed with emotion.

The only downside to an otherwise excellent album is that a few of the songs drag a little bit. The sevenand-a-half minute “Songs From The Moon” is probably the album’s low point, but there are plenty of other great songs that more than make up for it.

INFO: Bryan McPherson plays the Crepe Place at 9 p.m. on Friday, July 3, 1134 Soquel Ave., Santa Cruz. $8. 429-6994.

WEDNESDAY 7/1 FOUND ART EXHIBIT ‘ALPHABET OF ODDBALL ANIMALS’ In his fourth annual solo exhibition, Peter Koronakos showcases the transformation of one man’s junk into another man’s spirit animal, if you will. He captures the animal’s “essence”—a monkey’s “monkeyness” or a moose’s “moosiness”—whether by refashioning tennis rackets into a beaver’s tail or a cigar box into a hyena’s hide. Koronakos has created 26 new animals in his characteristic assemblage art method for this year’s show. Be inspired to reuse, recycle and recreate by the “American Beaver to Zebra Finch” alphabetical array at this Friday’s opening reception.

LENNY’S BASEMENT

50

Lenny Ruckel, lead guitarist for Lenny’s Basement, really does have a basement—at least he did in 2010 when the band formed. But the band never actually rehearsed there. They were going to, but the space wasn’t available.

“He said it would be fun to play in the basement like a real rock band, but it was kind of flooded, so we played in his living room. Lenny’s Living Room didn’t sound very cool,” says bassist Jo Jo Fox. They’ve since found a proper practice space, but kept the name. Most of the members had already known each other a long time when the band came together, and they gravitated toward covers of songs from the 1960s to the 1980s, specifically danceable rock tunes like from artists like Blondie, Little Feat, Talking Heads, Tom Petty and the Beatles.

“The underlining theme is to have rock music that people want to dance to.

It’s kind of just a haphazard list of songs that we come up with that we want to try out. There’s really no order to them. Ones that just seem appropriate, or just seem to have a good flow,” Fox says.

Unlike most of the other groups the members of the band are in, Lenny’s Basement doesn’t have a band leader, let alone a single lead singer. Four of the five members sing lead on different tunes, and whenever possible, they seek out songs with three-part harmonies.

“What we like about Lenny’s Basement is it’s a collective. Everybody sings. Everybody contributes ideas for songs. It’s very democratic,” Fox says.

The keyboardist, who also plays in the group Toro Y Moi, crafts some really laid-back, soulful, electro-pop future-funk tunes, but always with the ease of lounge music. Even when he croons in falsetto lines like “there’s no justice for the ones who

are in love,” you can’t help but snap your fingers and say, “Yeah, man. I dig it.” The recent UC Berkeley grad is classically trained and even has a tattoo of French composer Hector Berlioz on his arm. AARON CARNES INFO: 9 p.m. The Crepe Place, 1134 Soquel Ave., Santa Cruz. $10/adv, $12/door.

MICHAEL ROSE As much as Bob Marley is remembered as the figurehead of reggae, Black Uhuru did a lot in the ’80s to grow the music’s popularity. They won the first Grammy for best reggae album in 1985, when they were led by Michael Rose. When Rose left the group in the mid-90s, they were never the same, but having gotten his start as a solo artist in the ’70s, it wasn’t an odd move for him.

When they get together, they harmonize magnificently. Together with their backing group they play a style of easy-listening folk-rock popular in the ’70s with groups like the Eagles, Fleetwood Mac and Jackson Browne, with a touch of Latin and world beat.

FILM

REIMAGINED HISTORY Kate Winslet plays a fictional female gardener chosen to design a garden at Versailles in Alan

Rickman’s ‘A Little Chaos.’

Designing Woman JULY 1-7, 2015 | GTWEEKLY.COM | SANTACRUZ.COM

Female gardener helps build Versailles in fun but uneven ‘A Little Chaos’ BY LISA JENSEN

56

A

lan Rickman is capable of so much more than his sublimely unctuous Professor Snape in the Harry Potter movies. Still, the chance to see Snape as King Louis XIV, the “Sun King” of France, in the period piece A Little Chaos is just about irresistible. It’s a surprisingly good fit: both characters are imperious and uncompromising, and suffer fools not at all. And Rickman layers each character with an unexpected shading of sympathy.

Rickman also directs the film, and you can see why he was eager to cast himself in such a plummy role. It’s

also the kind of popular reimagined history in which a plucky prefeminist woman defies convention to make her way in a male-dominated society. Co-written by Rickman (with Jeremy Brock and Alison Deegan), it’s a romantic historical drama about a genteel widow eeking out a precarious living as a gardener who receives a commission to design a garden at Versailles. It’s a charming concept with a great cast, and a splendid showcase for star Kate Winslet, even if it doesn’t quite all come together.

Sabine De Barra (Winslet) is a young widow in 1682 Paris, supporting herself as a gardener. King Louis

(Rickman) is building himself the magnificent new palace of Versailles in the countryside. Sabine dares to submit her plans for one of the royal gardens to the king’s legendary landscape architect, Andre Le Notre (Matthias Schoenaerts, last seen in Far From the Madding Crowd). She’s treated as a joke by the other (male) garden designers vying for a commission— and by Le Notre himself, at first—but her plans intrigue Le Notre, who grants her a commission to plant a garden and build a waterfall for an outdoor ballroom at Versailles.

While Le Notre favors “order,” and Sabine appreciates a little “chaos” in

design, they earn each other’s respect amid the pomp and petty rivalries within Louis’ circle. (Among the film’s pleasures is Stanley Tucci as the Duc d’Orleans, Louis’ flamboyant royal brother, whose humor consistently livens up the action.) Winslet is wonderful, as unaffected, sensible Sabine, working in the mud alongside her construction crew, and speaking with refreshing candor to Louis himself in a nice moment when she mistakes him for one of the king’s gardeners.

Schoenaerts’ Le Notre is perhaps too restrained and stoic, even for someone cautiously navigating court society. He never gets angry at his scheming wife (he seethes quietly, but never yells), nor quite loses himself in passion with Sabine. This is partly the fault of the script, in which his character fades into the background, partnering Winslet with gallant deference, the way the prince in a ballet steps out of the spotlight while the ballerina dances her solo.

Not that they don’t have some sexy and affectionate scenes together.

(When Le Notre and Sabine take a break at the job site and share an impromptu meal of rustic bread and home-made pâté, it’s memorable as one of the first—and few—times that the guarded Le Notre actually smiles.)

But Schoenaerts is such a compelling actor with so much presence, and Winslet is so vibrant, that we wish their characters were having more fun together. (By all accounts, the real-life Le Notre was a wit, whose droll humor earned him Louis’ fickle friendship throughout his life.)

Sadly, there is no historical evidence that anyone like Sabine existed, or helped build Versailles. But so what?

The whole point of imagining such a scenario in a historical context is to encourage women to push boundaries in their own lives, to promote what Carolyn Heilbrun in her seminal book, Writing A Woman’s Life, refers to as “... the alternate life [the writer] wishes to inscribe upon the female imagination.”

In that respect, for all its flaws, A Little Chaos succeeds beautifully.

A LITTLE CHAOS *** (out of four) With Kate Winslet, Matthias Schoenaerts, Alan Rickman and Stanley Tucci. Written by Jeremy Brock, Alison Deegan, and Alan Rickman. Directed by Alan Rickman. Rated R. 116 minutes.

FILM NEW THIS WEEK

JULY 1-7, 2015 | GTWEEKLY.COM | SANTACRUZ.COM

MAGIC MIKE XXL Oh, the very, very thinly veiled layer of sexual innuendo that oozes—no, explodes—from this “dance comedy.” But, hey, who can argue with abs, abs, abs? Channing Tatum (who really is a great dancer, guys) is back from stripper “retirement” to the daily grind with his best buddies, the Kings of Tampa. On their way to a stripper convention, Magic Mike (Tatum) is joined by veteran dancers Big Dick Richie, Tarzan, and Ken (who didn’t get a creative stage name) and some fresh faces as they thrust their way toward one last blowout performance. And while it’s worth noting that a movie about a tight-knit group of female strippers would never be this successful at the box office, it’s a film for the giggles and the blushes and squeals of delight—like going to a male strip club, only cheaper and probably with better indoor climate control. Gregory Jacobs directs.

Channing Tatum, Joe Manganiello, and Matt Bomer co-star. (R) 115 minutes. Starts Friday.

58

THE OVERNIGHT Alex and Emily are new to Los Angeles; they’re exhausted parents of a young son struggling to keep the excitement in their marriage and, more importantly, to stay awake during most daylight hours. Played

by Adam Scott and Taylor Schilling, the couple meets Kurt (Jason Schwartzman) who invites them over for a playdate with his wife and son— and it does become a playdate for the parents. Boy, does it ever. In Schilling’s first major film since stepping on the scene as Piper in Orange Is the New Black, The Overnight offers a glimpse into yuppie life behind closed doors that proves somewhat giddying in its comedic chaos, headed by a small but delightfully deadpan cast. Patrick Brice directs. Adam Scott, Taylor Schilling, and Jason Schwartzman costar. (R) 79 minutes.

TERMINATOR: GENISYS It would be hard for a Terminator film to be lamer than Terminator: Salvation, which was perhaps the first movie in history to make killer robots boring (just kidding, Chopping Mall! You blazed a trail). The trailers for the

annoyingly spelled Terminator: Genisys at least make it look like it will be weirder, although nice job spoiling the big twist, dumbasses. Anyway, Arnie is also back as the time-traveling robot assassin who used to be badass until he started saying things like “Why do you cry?” Duh, I cry because they won’t stop making Terminator movies.

CONTINUING EVENT: LET’S TALK ABOUT THE MOVIES Film buffs are invited Wednesday nights at 7 p.m. to downtown Santa Cruz, where each week the group discusses a different current release. For our location and discussion topic, go to https:// groups.google.com/group/LTATM.

NOW PLAYING A LITTLE CHAOS Reviewed this issue. Rated R. 116 minutes.

DOPE Shameik Moore certainly redefines the definition of “geek” (since when are geeks the perfectly chiseled Fresh Prince throwback types with Class Act hair and excellent taste in music) as Malcolm, a straight-A student carefully maneuvering the reality of growing up in Inglewood. Produced by Pharrell Williams and Sean Combs (who are responsible for the undoubtedly dope soundtrack which includes four new originals by Pharrell) in addition to Forest Whitaker, the coming of age comedy/drama sees Malcolm through the trials and tribulations of his teens—the mean streets, romance, drama, and everything awkward and awesome in between.

Rick Famuyiwa directs. Shameik Moore, Tony Revolori, and Kiersey Clemons co-star. (R) 115 minutes.

ENTOURAGE Once upon a time there was an HBO series that everyone agreed was good, but not quite as good as The Sopranos. But it did have Jeremy Piven as agent Ari Gold, and after the show was over everybody kind of missed seeing him play that guy, so that’s probably why we now have an Entourage movie. The whole gang is back as we once again follow Adrian Grenier’s Vince, who is apparently still chasing fame and fortune in Hollywood. (R) 104 minutes.

ESCOBAR: PARADISE LOST In his directorial debut, Andrea Di Stefano

takes on the dark and dangerous world of Pablo Escobar’s Colombian drug cartel. Played by Hunger Games sweetheart Josh Hutcherson, Nick ventures from Canada to the Columbian coast in search of a surf paradise. He stumbles upon the beautifully alluring Maria—none other than Escobar’s niece. Nick becomes initiated into the family and with their acceptance come the responsibilities of an Escobar, forcing Nick to grapple with the moral implications of his new adopted family. Josh Hutcherson, Benicio Del Toro, and Brady Corbet costar. (R) 120 minutes.

I’LL SEE YOU IN MY DREAMS It’s always a refreshing change to see an entire movie built around a woman of a certain age. Blythe Danner personifies aging with grace and spirit in this wistful comedy with romantic overtones written for her by filmmaker Brett Haley, very loosely concocted from Danner’s real-life situation as a widow living in LA with a background in showbiz. Some plot elements fall into place a bit too easily, and the story has an insular feel, but the actors are fun to watch, especially Martin Starr, as a deadpan pool guy, and the everroguish Sam Elliott. And telling a story from a woman’s viewpoint is always appreciated. (PG-13) 95 minutes. (**1/2)—Lisa Jensen.

JURASSIC WORLD Steven Spielberg apparently learned nothing about franchises that have worn out their welcome from the poor reaction to Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. Oh wait, that movie made hundreds of millions of dollars?

Oh, maybe he did learn something!

Anyway, in this one, there’s a new dinosaur park, and everything goes fine! Not really, but wouldn’t that be kind of awesome? (PG-13) 124 minutes.

LOVE & MERCY Bill Pohlad’s generally absorbing fiction film about the amazing life and harrowing times of Brian Wilson, of the Beach Boys, narrows its focus to two pivotal moments in Wilson’s life. Paul Dano is terrific playing the younger Brian in the mid-1960s, at the height of his creative genius, and John Cusack is surprisingly

effective as the ’80s-model Brian, under the thumb of controlling psychotherapist Dr. Eugene Landy (Paul Giamatti). And it’s all connected by the music, a fabulous, gluttonous feast of Wilson music, from surf tunes to Smile, that informs every single scene. (PG-13) 120 minutes. (***)— Lisa Jensen.

SPY Melissa McCarthy plays a suave, cold-as-ice secret agent in this film from writer-director Paul Feig. Just kidding! She’s goofy and loveable again, and Feig is doing his same action-comedy shtick from The Heat, only for spy movies. Jude Law and Jason Statham co-star. (R) 120 minutes.

MAD MAX: FURY ROAD Tom Hardy takes over the role that made the youthful Mel Gibson a star, and director George Miller takes the helm once again in this continuation of the post-apocalyptic action franchise about souped-up, spare-part monster vehicles, huge explosions, and survival of the weirdest. Charlize Theron, Nicholas Hoult, and Zoe Kravitz costar. (R) 120 minutes.

TED 2 The lovably foul-mouthed teddy is back—and this time, he wants to produce a spawn of his own (terrifying, we know). However, as anyone who’s survived a trip to BuildA-Bear knows, the insides of a Teddy are not conducive to reproduction, hence why Ted asks John to provide the goods. What ensues is a typically hilarious battle for civil rights (“we’ll take it all the way up to Judge Judy if we have to”) so that Ted can prove he’s a human and keep the child he’s always wanted. Seth MacFarlane directs. Mark Wahlberg, Seth MacFarlane, and Amanda Seyfried costar. (R) 115 minutes.

MAX Trained as a precision military dog, Max served on the frontlines of Afghanistan with his handler, U.S. Marine Kyle Wincott until things go terribly awry and Wincott is mortally wounded. Traumatized by the loss of his best friend, the canine is unable to return to service and thus shipped stateside to Wincott’s family where the fallen soldier’s brother develops an unlikely bond with the four-legged veteran. Boaz Yakin directs. Thomas Haden Church, Josh Wiggins, and Luke Kleintank co-star. (PG) 111 minutes.

PITCH PERFECT 2 The sassy women’s a capella singing team that made the first Pitch Perfect such a sleeper hit is back in this sequel, directed by co-star Elizabeth Banks.

It’s a big-game movie with songs in which the Barden Bellas choke at a big concert, then try to re-earn their reputation by entering an international competition that no American team has ever won. Anna Kendrick, Rebel Wilson, Hailee Steinfeld, Brittany Snow, and Skylar Astin head the cast. (PG-13) 118 minutes.

POLTERGEIST The old Steven Spielberg horror classic gets a makeover in this update. Sam Rockwell and Rosemarie DeWitt star as the parents whose little daughter starts to bond with aliens oozing into the household via the TV. Jared Harris co-stars for director Gil Kenan (Monster House; City of Ember).

(PG-13) 93 minutes.

TOMORROWLAND Intent on turning every ride in their original theme park into a movie, the folks at Disney present this sci-fi mystery adventure about a jaded, former boy genius (George Clooney) and a bright teenage girl (Britt Robertson) on a journey of destiny to a place called “Tomorrowland” that haunts their dreams. Directed by Brad Bird (The Iron Giant; Mission Impossible: Ghost Protocol), from a script he wrote with Lost co-creator Damon Lindelof. (PG) 130 minutes.

TESTAMENT OF YOUTH: Jon Snow—what are you doing in World War I England? It seems that Winter came and went as Game of Thrones star Harington makes his first major film debut in this war drama based on the namesake memoir by Vera Brittain. Presented by BBC, the young Vera defies the conventions of her times, trying desperately to ignore the wiles of dashing Roland Leighton (Harington—who likely still knows nothing) as she accepts her position at Oxford. Conflict arises when the star-crossed lovers find themselves in the pull of the WWI volunteerism and the devastating realities of the lost generation. James Kent directs. Alicia Vikander, Kit Harington, and Taron Egerton co-star. (PG-13) 129 minutes.

HIGH TEA IN CAPITOLA

Lunch is Packed

Y

our Place—yes, the one on Mission Street next to Coffeetopia. Now owners Rachel and Arthur (the chef) Russell are featuring summer picnic baskets ready to take to your favorite outdoor concert, Santa Cruz Shakespeare performance, Boardwalk Friday Night Band, or romantic day at the beach. Packed into pretty woven baskets, starting at $35, these lunches for two run the gamut from assorted cheeses with half a sourdough loaf, fruit,

potato salad, slaw and cherry pie, to a lavish picnic of cold fried chicken and biscuits, pickles, potato salad, slaw, fruit and house-made carrot cake for $65.

Most of these half dozen basket combos include the sandwich of your choice, selected from the humongous Your Place sandwich menu, with additions of piquant salads like curried chicken salad, Greek salad, pesto pasta salad, and lots of other delightful extras. The chef tells me that all you need to

do is check out the Basket Menu on Your Place’s website, yourplacesc. com, and then call two hours in advance of pick-up time. What a great idea. They put together the food, you take it out on your summer adventure. Your Place, 1719 Mission St., Santa Cruz, 831 426-3564.

WINE NOTES Stephen Coquillette Champagne, Brut ($40)—filled with bubbles, crisp complexity and a nose of rose geranium—was one of several I enjoyed last week at the gala Champagne Tasting and movie sponsored by Deer Park Wine & Spirits at the Del Mar Theater.

Picnic basket lunches from Your Place, plus new owners at Camellia Tea House BY CHRISTINA WATERS

Housed in the beloved old tea room on Capitola Avenue, Camellia Tea House has new owners and an ambitious new roster of international tea events.

Proprietor and pastry chef Jenny Rashe, a longtime devotée of tea ceremonies and rituals, took over the longtime tea room a mere three weeks ago, and will be ready with special presentations starting July 11. Rashe, a specialist in tea etiquette, has big plans, including live flamenco guitar and tapas on Saturday nights starting July 11. On Saturday, July 18 the Camellia will host a Japanese Tea Ceremony, from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., presented by tea master Matsui Sensee. Children’s Tea service, Reina Sofia Light Tea, and Romeo and Juliet Full Tea are only some of the possibilities.

ruzzone Family Vineyards is a small operation run by Berna and John Bruzzone. Starting out a few years ago making only Chardonnay, they eventually planted Pinot Noir on their extensive property and now make this varietal as well.

Their 2013 estate Pinot Noir ($30) was hand-harvested in late fall and then aged in French oak barrels for 11 months, producing a rich, full-bodied wine with soft tannins and earthy flavors. Leather, red fruit and spice round out this gorgeous wine, which sells like hot cakesâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;so I would not waste time getting some. Pairing well with meat dishes, the Pinot was a perfect match with our dinner of roast pork, veggies and mashed potatoes.

The Bruzzone family has come up with a brand new label depicting a chapel on top of the Rancho Don Bosco property, overlooking the Monterey Bay. The Pinot comes from that vineyard, thus the vineyard designation as â&#x20AC;&#x153;Chapel on the Hill.â&#x20AC;?

The late John Bruzzone Sr. built a chapel in Italy about 55 years ago and dedicated it to St. John Bosco, the founder of the Salesian order.

When his wife passed away, he built a duplicate chapel at the ranch.

The Bruzzone tasting room is open on Passport days, which fall on the third Saturday in January, April, July, and November (see scmwa.com for information). The next Passport day is July 18â&#x20AC;&#x201D;an opportunity to visit the splendid estate of Rancho Don Bosco in Santa Cruz, which belongs to the Bruzzone family,

T

y Pearce has been cooking for over two decades. Recently he’s started Ty’s Eatery, a popup company that focuses on healthy, organic food that is also tasty and familiar—he calls it healthy comfort food. About two months ago, Ty’s Eatery got connected with Santa Cruz Food Lounge and has been doing brunch every Sunday and dinner every Wednesday. We spoke with Pearce about how he designs menus and his extraordinary cinnamon rolls everyone is talking about.

Does the menu vary week to week?

You describe your food as healthy comfort food.

I make very familiar food. I just use good ingredients—you don’t have to add a bunch of stuff to make it taste good. I go to the farmers market and I see some wonderful nectarines that are in season and are sweet. I take them

How are your Sunday brunches and Wednesday dinners different?

On Sundays, I use organic eggs. I use kale, lots of vegetables, polenta.

It’s kind of like wholesome grains, farmed vegetables—it’s simple foods prepared well. For dinner, it’s an outside barbecue. We’ve got barbecue and live music. It’s like going to someone’s backyard. I smoke all the meats. I created this wonderful rub that doesn’t have sugar in it.

You’ve got some delicious-looking cinnamon rolls.

I don’t want to be known as just the healthy place. I want to be known as a place where you can go and there’s healthy options—hopefully one day you might try them. You want cinnamon rolls? I’ll use really good ingredients. It’s going to be really delicious. Hopefully next time you’ll try something else. I try to get people to try different things. That’s kind of the goal.

TY PEARCE: I get my produce from the farmers market, and whatever I get that day, that’s what I prepare. People get really excited, like ‘What’s going to be on the menu?’ I get lots and lots of vegetables. I take things that are in season. Sometimes I think people forget how good fresh fruit tastes.

Things are so processed nowadays.

back and I want to make a cobbler or something. I’ll taste as I go, so I won’t need to put in a ton of sugar and processed stuff. Last Wednesday, there was only one dessert that had gluten in it, the rest of the menu was gluten free.

37th Anniversary Sale!

+ RISA’S STARS BY RISA D’ANGELES WE HOLD THESE TRUTHS TO BE SELF-EVIDENT Saturday, July 4, is the 239th birthday of the United States, commemorating the signing of the Declaration of Independence (the U.S. astrology chart has Aquarius moon—freedom for its people, by its people). Cancer, a liberating and initiating sign, is the “gate” where Spirit enters matter. Cancer receives and distributes Ray 3 (Divine Intelligence) and Ray 7 (new rules, new rhythms, new free nation under God).

Cancer represents an intelligent freethinking humanity that can and must create right economics for the world. This means a policy of sharing, an opportunity for the U.S. when Venus (money, resources, possessions, etc.) retrogrades July and August in Leo (the heart of the matter).

The United States has a unique spiritual task for the world: to lead humanity within

and toward the light, accomplished by its people who must first awaken to this task, learn discrimination and be directed by the soul to assume the Herculean task of spiritual world leadership.

Let us review the first words of our Constitution: “We the People of the United States, in order to form a more perfect Union, establish justice, ensure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this constitution for the United States of America.” Let us form that union together. The following is a review of the spiritual tasks for each sign. Read all the signs. They all apply to everyone.

ARIES Mar21–Apr20

LIBRA Sep23–Oct22

Your task in the upcoming times is to initiate the new culture and civilization, create communities that sustain large groups of people, gather groups of like minds together to follow the initiating steps you create. You then hand the tasks over to those who can build and sustain your ideas. You must understand the importance of this work. You are, on spiritual levels, Mercury, the messenger.

You’re to bring forth justice, taking the blindfold off Lady Justice. She holds the scales. You work with Gemini and Cancer creating economic stability humanity will need as the old economic structures dissolve. You are to help humanity understand their true identity and create relationships where none existed. You establish right human relations. You’re Uranus, where the new rhythms, archetypes, culture and civilization originates.

TAURUS Apr21–May21

SCORPIO Oct23–Nov21

What others (only a few) have initiated in creating the new world you are to study, refine and essentially stabilize. You often present and offer these ideas to the larger world. Many are asleep. Experiment with them in your like-minded group. You are to sustain the new reality and prepare for seven generations to come. You are Vulcan, forging lead into gold.

Your task is to first pass the nine tests of Mars; to realize you’re in a constant cycle of life, death, regeneration, and transformation. You’re the phoenix rising from the ashes, the disciple in the temple of wisdom (learning astrology). You prepare for the upcoming changes that will at first distress and then regenerate suffering humanity. You will be one of the teachers during the upcoming time. You are Mars, lord of aspiration.

GEMINI May 22–Jun20 You learn about life-giving, sustainable principles for humanity—ideas that most are unaware of as of yet.

But humanity is actually seeking them. Being brilliant, mercurial and curious, you must first incorporate these principles into your life and distribute them. You’re to do this with patience, intelligence, scientific thought and love. You’re Venus, synthesizing all dualities.

WWW.SWEETSWOODFURNITURE.COM

You’re to nurture new ideas, allow them to enter your world, using your resources for research. You’re to also tend to those bringing the new information forth.

Through you, the birth of a new culture and civilization comes forth. You’re to open the gates so impressions for a new world can come through. The entire world is your family. You work with Neptune, the dissolver, the refiner, the soul.

LEO Jul21–Aug22 You’re to use the new information creatively, always seeking ways that assist the kingdoms (mineral, plant, animal, human). You’re a leader, a king or queen, the artist. People listen to you because you carry the heart of the Sun’s magnetism. You’re to create new sustaining projects. These give you greater self-identity. Later you lovingly offer your gifts to humanity, the world disciple.

You are the Sun, the life-giving force. Recite the Gayatri (Hymn to the Sun) daily.

SAGITTARIUS Nov22–Dec20 You’re to “lead the way” by offering new goals to humanity, moving us toward a sharing society. You’re the professor, teaching ancient (yet future) philosophies to those seeking the new culture and civilization, new ways of thinking which bring order and organization to the new world. First you need education in these things yourself. How will you learn?

You are Earth, the mother and the Holy Spirit all in one.

CAPRICORN Dec21–Jan20 You know how to climb mountains. The constitution of Man/Mind is a mountain, the biblical Jacob’s Ladder, angels climbing up (toward Spirit) and down (into matter).

Humanity, in matter for 18 million years, is seeking the path of return. You will teach humanity what are appropriate shoes, clothes, foods and climbing gear to ascend the mountain, become the initiate and reach for the Sun. You are to consider yourself a unicorn and Saturn, the teacher of time.

AQUARIUS Jan21–Feb18 Your tasks, future-oriented yet also for the present, are many. You’re to build a spaceship, geodesic dome and an Arc—environments to grow fish (tilapia), vegetables, fruits and medicinals. You’re to create community, a template of how humanity will need to live. You’re to offer yourself as everyone's friend. You love humanity.

From a distance. You work with Jupiter, which is love from the heart of the Sun.

VIRGO Aug23–Sep22

PISCES Feb19–Mar20

Always you hold a new state of consciousness, a new world. After reaching personality integration, you are able to bring forth the new materiality, which is the sharing principle. It will be your task to organize it into a structure understandable by humanity. The time is soon, though not yet. Study how humanity is to be fed.

You, Ceres, are the moon hiding Vulcan. Water and soil are your gold.

Your task is to build temples of study where everyone can be re-educated, their minds and hearts uplifted through understanding prayer, meditation and invocation. You’re to teach the “little ones” (seekers), offer festivals of light and unite heaven and Earth through the study of the stars, planets and Sun (astrology). You’re to work with Aquarius until the communities are built and offer the mantram of direction to the world.

JIM MARSHALL, 46-Year Customer, Santa Cruz

Occupation: Children’s Alley pre-school co-owner/teacher; Cabrillo College instructor Hobbies: Gardening/landscaping, music Astrological Sign: Virgo What do you like to cook? MARY JO: “I tend to make mostly fresh Mediterranean/Italian and American-style dishes. We buy lots of sausages, ground meat and dried pasta from Shopper’s. We get our holiday foods here, too.” JIM: “I enjoy all the meats from the butcher shop. I like a steak once a week. I might choose a filet mignon, a grass-fed rib eye or a porterhouse. When they put a steak on sale it’ll be an excellent cut, not like at other stores. The butchers are very helpful and they’ll go the extra mile.” MARY JO: “The seafood is always fresh, and I really like the produce. It’s the best!”

What makes it the “best?” MARY JO “It’s always fresh, top quality, and the prices for both organic and conventional are fantastic!

They carry cardoons. No other Santa Cruz market carries them.” JIM: “Mary Jo loves to cook. She’ll find find a recipe that calls for numerous herbs and vegetables and always finds what she needs at Shopper’s. I like that nothing is pre-packaged.” MARY JO: “Every time I walk in it feels like a big hug. Shopper’s checkers are adorable and kind. I grew up in the Midwest and we always shopped at smaller independent markets.” JIM: “I shopped here my first day in Santa Cruz.”

Really? JIM: “Absolutely. I’ve always liked the old photos on the wall, and it feel almost exactly as it did 46 years ago, but in a good way: the store is clean and up-to-date. We shop here for both home and our school as we provide healthy fun snacks three times daily for 12 kids.” MARY JO: “One of the parents asked, ‘Isn’t Shopper’s expensive?’ I said, ‘No, go there! I’ve been running the school for over 30 years and this is where we buy the food.’ When my kids were young and we went shopping, I’d say, ‘Yes, yes,’ when they asked if they could have this or that because Shopper’s foods are healthy.”
