OPINION

EDITOR’S NOTE Wiser folks than I have said that in life, the journey is more important than the destination, and that’s sometimes the key to understanding news stories, as well. There’s been a lot of reporting in the last several months (including in this paper) about the fight over the Beach Flats Community Garden. But Jacob Pierce’s cover story this week asks a deeper, more analytical question about this often emotional issue: how exactly did we get to this point? Both the Seaside Company and the Beach Flats

gardeners believe they have done the best they can for this cherished piece of land, but somehow in the course of negotiating over it, some serious bad blood has developed. The article explains why, and takes a close look at the role the city of Santa Cruz has played. I think it’s a great read that sheds light not only on this specific story, but also on a larger view of how the political process can go wrong on most any issue, even when those involved want it to go right.

Also, our Visitor Guide is out this week, and we’re particularly proud of it. It’s a handy guide to this area’s food and drink scene, nightlife, attractions, shops and more. Look for it wherever you pick up GT around the county.

SANTA CRUZ’S SEGREGATION

4

Congratulations to Geoffrey Dunn for his great history lesson regarding Juneteenth and London Nelson (GT, 6/8).

It is particularly ironic that someone like Robert Burton, described as a Santa Cruz high teacher, Sentinel “historian,” former Santa Cruz city school board member (like myself) and member of the Santa Cruz county board of supervisors would be the one to identify his first name correctly.

During my own tenure on the SC school district board of trustees, we were made aware of the excessively high number of African-American students who were diagnosed as needing “special education.”

At the time, it seemed particularly ironic and grossly racist that African-American students were being segregated to such a high degree in a school district that owes its economic survival in 1860 to a freed former slave from North Carolina.

That sad practice started to come to an end in my final year on the SC board of trustees, and I am hopeful we won’t return to a time where attitudes like Robert Burton’s are the norm. It is a fact, however, that from time to time I encountered racial attitudes like those of Mr. Burton among the supposedly highly enlightened educational elite of Santa Cruz. And the small, small number of teachers of color in the Santa Cruz public schools are

just another indicator of the smug, selfcongratulatory attitudes of some of the educational leadership in Santa Cruz. I say to those people of color in Santa Cruz: it is time to comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable. Attend the school board meetings and raise your voices!

SENSIBLE, NOT SINGLE-ISSUE Re: “Driving the Issue” (GT, 6/8): I am a founding member of the Campaign for Sensible Transportation. I am the former co-chair of this group (with Paul Elerick) and continue to be active as its treasurer and webmaster.

We have definitely not been “hijacked by single-issue environmentalists who ignore the county's serious transportation problems and only care about global warming.” In fact, we are greatly concerned about our transportation problems, and would strongly support a ballot measure that addresses them with cost-effective proposals.

A primary defect of the currently proposed ballot measure is that it continues to stress that in order to relieve traffic congestion on Highway 1 we must provide additional road capacity for vehicles, nearly all of which are singleoccupant automobiles.

It would spend approximately $100 million (about 25 percent) of the funds raised on adding three auxiliary lane >8

An Aptos man raising funds for a new moisturizer is $300 short of his $2,500 goal, with one week to go. Morgan Hertz has launched a fundraising drive for Go Feed Your Skin, and hopes to move forward quickly with his Santa Cruz Salve and Santa Cruz Body Butter, each available in a few different scents. He first developed his creams to treat his own eczema. For more information, visit www.gofeedyourskin.com.

The Santa Cruz Playground Project celebrated a milestone this past weekend in its efforts to build the county’s first universally accessible playground at Chanticleer Park. County and community leaders unveiled plans and a fundraising goal of $1.9 million on Sunday. The playground, LEO’s Haven, was partly inspired by a young boy in a wheelchair named Oliver.

The name comes from him and his two sisters, Lauren and Evelyn.

In some ways they’re awesome, but I can see how Airbnb is making the rental market really tough for a lot of people.

As a taxi driver in Santa Cruz, Uber is making it harder to make a living. They’re putting us out of business, and they’re not regulated.

ROB BREZSNY FREE WILL ASTROLOGY Week of June 15 ARIES Mar21–Apr19 The coming months will be a favorable time to boost your skills as a cagey warrior. I don’t mean you should push people around and get into lots of fights. Rather, the goal is for you to harness your aggressiveness constructively and to wield your willpower with maximum grace. In the face of fear, you will not just be brave, but brave and crafty. You’ll refrain from forcing storylines to unfold before they’re ready, and you’ll rely on strategy and good timing instead of brute strength and the decree “Because I said so.” Now study this counsel from the ancient Chinese statesman Zhuge Liang, also known as Crouching Dragon: “The wise win before they fight, while the ignorant fight to win.”

TAURUS Apr20–May20 Everything you do in the coming days should be imbued with the intention of enhancing the Flow. It’s high time to identify where the energy is stuck, and then get it unstuck.

You have a sacred mandate to relieve the congestion … to relax the tweaks … to unravel the snarls if you can, or simply cut through them if necessary. You don’t need to tell anyone about your secret agenda. Just go about your business with zealous diligence and unflagging purpose. If it takes more effort than you wished, so be it. If your progress seems maddeningly gradual, keep the faith.

GEMINI May21–June20 My long-term predictions for the next 15 months are a blend of hopeful optimism and a reasonable interpretation of the astrological omens. Here we go: 1. You will have an excellent chance to smooth and soothe the rough spots in your romantic karma. 2. You will outgrow any addiction you might have to frustrating connections. 3. Unrequited love will either be requited, or else you’ll become bored with the futile chase and move on. 4. You’ll be challenged to either refresh and reinvent an existing intimacy, or else get shrewd enough not to repeat past mistakes in a new intimacy. 5. You will have an abundance of good ideas about how to install the theme of smart fun at the heart of your strongest alliances.

as well as off-putting ironic monikers like Poker Face and Stonewall. Instead, gravitate toward lively choices like Dazzler, FluxLuster, Hoochie-Coochie, or FreeBorn.

LIBRA Sep23–Oct 22 During the next 15 months, you will have an unprecedented chance to materialize a fantasy you’ve harbored for years. Essential to your efforts will be a capacity to summon more ambition than you ever have before.

I’m not talking about the grubby self-promotion that typically passes for ambition, however. Arrogant self-importance and selfish posturing will not be part of your winning formula. Rather, the kind of ambition I’m referring to is a soaring aspiration that seeks the best and highest not just for yourself but for everyone whose life you touch. I mean the holy hunger that drives you to express impeccable integrity as you seek to master the tasks you came to Earth to accomplish. Get started!

SCORPIO Oct23–Nov21 During the next 15 months, composting should be a primary practice, as well as a main metaphor. If you have been lazy about saving leftover scraps from your kitchen and turning them into fertilizer, now is an excellent time to intensify your efforts. The same is true if you have been lax about transforming your pain into useful lessons that invigorate your lust for life. Be ever-alert for opportunities to capitalize on junk, muck, and slop.

Find secret joy in creating unexpected treasure out of old failures and wrong turns.

SAGITTARIUS Nov22–Dec21 Have you ever made a fool of yourself while trying to fulfill your deepest yearnings? I hope so. If you haven’t, your yearnings probably aren’t deep enough. Most of us, on multiple occasions, have pursued our longings for connection with such unruly intensity that we have made foggy decisions and engaged in questionable behavior. That’s the weird news. The good news is that now and then, the impulse to leave our safety zone in a quest to quench our deepest yearnings can actually make us smarter and more effective. I believe this is one of those times for you.

Author Courttia Newland quotes the pre-Socratic philosopher Meno: “How will you go about finding the thing the nature of which is totally unknown to you?” In response to this riddle, Newland riffs on what it means to him: “Even more important than the journey itself, is the venture into the unknowable. The ability to find comfort moving forwards without quite knowing where you are going.” I nominate these to be your words to live by in the coming days, Cancerian. Have open-hearted fun as you go in search of mysterious and impossible secrets!

I’m confident you will track them down—especially if you’re willing to be lost.

CAPRICORN Dec22–Jan19

LE0 Jul23–Aug22

The prison population in the U.S. is over two million, more than twice what it was in 1990. In contrast, Canada keeps about 41,000 people in jail, Italy 52,000, and France 66,000. That’s the bad news. The good news, at least for you and your tribe, is that a relatively small percentage of you will be incarcerated during the next 15 months. According to my analysis of the astrological omens, Aquarians all over the world will specialize in liberation. Not only will you be extra ethical; not only will you be skillful at evading traps; you will also be adept at emancipating yourself from your own delusions and limitations. Congratulations in advance! It’s time to start singing some new freedom songs.

Your homework is to write a story about the life you’re going to live between now and next April. The length of this predictive tale should be at least three pages, although it’s fine if you produce more. Here are some meditations to lubricate the flow of your imagination. 1.

What three questions would you love to have answered during the next 42 weeks? 2. Of the numerous adventures that might be fun to explore, which are the two that would be most consistently energizing? 3. What is the one thing you’d most like to change about your attitude or revamp about your life? 4. What new privilege will you have earned by April 2017?

VIRGO Aug23–Sep22 According to an old Chinese proverb, if you want to get rich, you must have a nickname. My meditations on your future suggest that this curious formula may have some validity. The next 15 months will be a favorable time to attend to the groundwork that will ultimately increase your wealth. And your luck in doing this work is likely to be oddly good if you add a frisky tweak to your identity— such as a zesty new nickname, for example. I suggest you stay away from clichés like Ace or Vixen or Sharpie,

During the next 13 months, what can you do to enhance your ability to be the boss of yourself? What practices can you engage in on a daily basis that will build your potency and authority and clout? How can you gain access to more of the helpers and resources you need to carry out your life’s master plan? These are excellent questions to ask yourself every day between now and July 2017. It’s time to find or create your ultimate power spot.

AQUARIUS Jan20–Feb18

PISCES Feb19–Mar20 The English word “catharsis” is derived from the ancient Greek katharsis, which was a technical medical term that meant “purgation” or “purification,” as in flushing out the bowels. Aristotle converted katharsis into a metaphor that described how a drama performed in the theater could “clean out” the emotions of spectators.

These days, catharsis may refer to any event that precipitates a psycho-spiritual renewal by building up and then releasing tension. I foresee at least one of these strenuous blessings in your immediate future.

segments to Highway 1—from the Soquel Drive interchange to 41st Avenue, from the Bay/Porter interchange to Park Avenue, and from Park Avenue to State Park Drive.

Each of these would increase the capacity of Highway 1. They will not succeed in reducing traffic congestion on the road, especially over the long term, since the additional capacity will just attract additional vehicles.

Such a business-as-usual approach has failed in every case elsewhere in the U.S. It would be much more cost-effective to spend the $100 million to support our underfunded bus system. METRO is

proposing service cuts of approximately 25 percent. The sales tax allocation for METRO is insufficient to prevent deep cuts in service.

A primary goal of the Campaign for Sensible Transportation is to reduce the need for, and thus reduce dependence on, the private automobile. The best way to achieve that goal is to provide for other transportation modes and to make them attractive.

WORKAHOLICS UNANIMOUS It’s part of the American way of life, but working too much can have serious physical and

psychological consequences.

Not Safe for Work How our culture’s obsession with job performance is ruining our health BY ANDREW STEINGRUBE of the large sample were classified as “workaholics,” and they were significantly more likely to suffer from ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder), OCD (obsessive-compulsive disorder), anxiety, and depression.

But is it the job that makes someone obsessive or do those who tend toward the obsessive end up as workaholics—chicken or the egg?

“Correlations between workaholism and all psychiatric disorder symptoms were positive and significant,” stated the researchers.

Correlation does not necessarily equal causation, however, but, according to the researchers, it’s probably safe to say that the combination of both can prove damaging.

A currently accepted definition of a workaholic is “being overly concerned about work, driven by an uncontrollable work motivation, and to investing so much time and effort to work that it impairs other important life areas.” But the University of Bergen study’s authors noted that, “the line between excessive enthusiasm and a genuine addiction is difficult to define.”

Objectively, then it can be difficult to differentiate, but the researchers also used language typically associated with addiction disorders— just as if work were the drug.

In that example, an employee might use work to regulate emotions (mood modification), work longer

SANTACRUZ.COM | GOODTIMES.SC | JUNE 15-21, 2016

n many ways, workaholism is as much a part of American culture as hamburgers, cowboys, and jazz. A 2013 Center for Economic Research report called America the “No Vacation Nation,” and stated that on average, U.S. employers offer about six paid holidays and 10 paid vacation days per year. Perhaps it’s no surprise, then, that so many Americans are obsessed with their jobs, but scientists are discovering that working too much can have very real health consequences.

A recent study conducted by researchers at the University of Bergen in Norway looked at more than 16,000 workers with a mean age of 37 years old. Overall, 8 percent

hours to get the same mood effects (tolerance), be distressed if unable to work (withdrawal), fail to control time spent working (relapse), and suffer negative consequences as a result of working too much (problems). Mood modification, tolerance, withdrawal, relapse, and problems are all components of a biopsychosocial framework of addiction.

Beyond being associated with poor psychological health, working too much can also degrade physical health. A 2015 meta-analysis published in The Lancet looked at 25 previous studies from the U.S., Europe, and Australia. Findings showed that those who worked long hours, which they define as 55 or more per week, were 13 percent more likely to suffer from coronary heart disease. The same group was 33 percent more likely to suffer a stroke than their counterparts who worked normal hours defined as 35-40 hours per week.

Many workers, especially in industries like service and retail, have little paid time off, and work major holidays. The Obama administration recently finalized a law to expand overtime pay to salaried workers making less than $47,476 per year, but since employers have a number of options for compliance, including raising salaries above the threshold, it’s not yet clear if it will change the hours in many workweeks.

So how does one maintain a healthy psyche and body when the hamster wheel doesn’t slow down, let alone stop? In contrast to the U.S., the European Union requires that its citizens have at least 20 paid vacation days per year, and some member nations require even more than that.

Perhaps Europeans know that when it comes to work, less can often be more.

Napa’s water problems are a dire warning about the dangers of development and industry growth BY STETT HOLBROOK

O

ver millennia, the Napa River deposited much of the soil that supports the valley’s vast carpet of vines.

But for 40 years, the Environmental Protection Agency has classified the waterway as “impaired” by excessive levels of pathogens, sediment and oxygen-depleting nutrients like nitrates and phosphates, which are discharged from wastewater treatment plants, and runoff from cattle ranches and vineyards. The nutrients have spurred excessive algal growth. The algae choke the

river and lower levels of dissolved oxygen, which is critical for salmon, steelhead trout, and other species.

While the river is cleaner than it once was, and some riparian habitat has been restored, the feds still consider its steelhead population threatened and its Chinook salmon endangered.

As for the native coho salmon?

Extinct since the 1960s.

In recent years, the state has limited three Napa Valley cities from discharging treated wastewater into the Napa River during periods of lowbase flow, a directive that has helped

improve water quality to the point where the San Francisco Regional Water Quality Control Board in 2014 recommended lifting its “impaired” classification for nutrients. The board is also preparing its first-ever erosioncontrol rules for agriculture, with a draft environmental impact report expected this summer.

Chris Malan, Napa County’s most ardent environmentalist, has been working to improve the river for decades. Back in the early 2000s, she donned a snorkel and mask to survey creeks in the Napa >14

Mark Mesiti-Miller’s passion for transportation planning in Santa Cruz is perhaps best told by his wife, Donna Murphy.

On a recent Napa getaway, MesitiMiller took her on a detour, away from the vineyard tours, to the wine country’s lesserknown draw: its developing rail system and accompanying rail trail.

“It had nothing to do with our trip, but our curiosity,” says Murphy, UC Santa Cruz vice chancellor before she retired in 2013, describing their exploration of how the Napa trail is laid out, and how the stations and railroads interact.

A retired civil engineer, Mesiti-Miller is consumed by his curiosity for housing and transportation. Since selling his firm last year, Mesiti-Miller, a Santa Cruz planning commissioner, has closely studied the developing Santa Cruz Corridor plan, which will aim to increase density on major thoroughfares. He’s spoken during public comment in meetings on a range of topics, like the possible November ballot measure for transportation, and has hosted events to discuss passenger rail in Santa Cruz along the coast.

“His mind’s always kind of gnawing on different issues,” says Murphy. “He reads a lot, and so he tracks these things. If he’s read something about a complete street, then as we’re driving down, he’ll study it. If he’s looking at housing density and we’re driving around town, we’re looking at the scale of buildings, how the roads work, et cetera.”

The planning commission published its General Plan 2030 four years ago, and along with it a corresponding land-use map.

Mesiti-Miller’s vision for Santa Cruz, also laid out in the plan, centers around its corridors.

These are the city’s commercial hubs where most of the mom and pop shops, drugstores, bakeries and markets are, along Soquel Avenue, Water, Ocean and Mission streets.

Mesiti-Miller calls for mixed-use development along these thoroughfares, with ground-floor commercial space, and above that, affordable housing.

“The most sustainable way to grow a community is vertically and along its corridors,” says Mesiti-Miller. “It’s >17

#ChooseSantaCruz

By Datta Khalsa, Broker The City of Santa Cruz recently put on a State of the City presentation at the Hotel Paradox to a packed room. Those in attendance were treated to a look back at the 150 years since Santa Cruz was first incorporated, followed by a look at current issues and a look toward the future through a strategic plan being implemented from 2015 through 2020.

Santa Cruz has an image and impact worldwide that far exceeds the 64,632 people who live here year round. This is in large part thanks to the many prominent companies who started here, along with a growing number of national companies choosing to open offices in Santa Cruz in the past few years.

Powered by our unique cultural identity and the natural beauty of the Central Coast, our biggest draw continues to be a strong tourism industry (with the Boardwalk alone bringing well over 3 million people annually), and the City is rising to meet that demand with 801 new hotel rooms either recently opened or approved. Most prominent among these is the La Bahia, which will be a 165-unit hotel with conference and banquet space, restaurant, retail space and spa facilities.

JUNE 15-21, 2016 | GOODTIMES.SC | SANTACRUZ.COM

With our median price for homes at $798,000 county-wide, and the average rent for a 2-bedroom apartment at $2400 per month, the cost of living is another priority being addressed through the robust approval of no less than 10 multi-residential projects currently under construction. These include several which are specifically designated as low-income housing for those not fortunate enough to be members of the less than 30% of Santa Cruz County residents who can afford to buy a home here. There are also at least another 10 projects approved/waiting to be built and at least another 10 applications underway.

14

A few of the larger projects include: multiple 3- and 4-story mixed-use developments of residential units over street level commercial suites along the city’s 4 main arteries of transportation; a project on the Westside which will add 400,000sf of industrial space plus 248 residential units; several live/work developments; a 51-unit senior/memory care facility on Jewell Street; and a 63-unit affordable housing development on Ocean Street with 6700sf of commercial space. There are also multiple commercial and cultural developments in the approval and construction process, including an 8,405sf for commercial use on Ocean Street and the new venue for Santa Cruz Shakespeare being constructed up by DeLaveaga Golf Course.

For those interested in development, or in opening or moving a business here, the City’s Economic Development office is an excellent resource (@ SantaCruzEDO, #ChooseSantaCruz or ChooseSantaCruz.com). And for my part, connecting the developer and entrepreneurial community with the many emerging housing, commercial and business opportunities we have in the area is one of the most enjoyable aspects of what I do.

River watershed for steelhead.

In her run for a seat on the Napa County Board of Supervisors, she called for a moratorium on new wineries in Napa County. Her platform did not endear her to the wine industry, and she failed to make it past the June 7 primary.

Malan welcomes the state’s new ag-related erosion-control rules, and she gives credit to winegrowers who have worked with the county and state to implement best-management practices on their property. But she strongly opposes delisting the river for nutrients because many of its tributaries are still often choked with algae—a point she made to the water

board by presenting video footage of Tulocay Creek, a major tributary to the Napa River.

“You couldn’t see the surface of the water,” Malan says. “It was covered with a green mat of algae for as far as you could see.”

Malan says nutrients from vineyards have gone unregulated, and must be brought into compliance.

“We have to hit the pause button,” she says. “We’ve got to figure out how to get this right, because it’s just not OK to kill all the fish and have people drink polluted water.”

Arcata-based fisheries biologist Patrick Higgins, who has worked on steelhead and salmon restoration for 20 years, also opposes the water

board’s recommendation to delist the river. The ongoing drought, he says, plus illegal water diversions and groundwater pumping, result in less water to dilute pollutants in the river.

Water temperatures are rising and fish populations are trying to hang on, he says. “Steelhead trout now inhabit less than 20 percent of their former habitats in the Napa River basin because of flow diminishment,” he wrote in comments to the water board.

Those fish, he said, “will go extinct if more decisive action is not taken.”

Napa County environmentalist Mike Hackett says activists have worked hard to protect agriculture, and that it’s now time to protect the watershed.

NEWS BRIEFS TAKING A STRAND Kids with cancer may be better off if they live in California, attendees of the Kids Cancer Summit at Seymour Marine Discovery Center learned last week. UCSC’s Treehouse Childhood Cancer Initiative (TCCI), a program of the Genomics Institute, furthers research for pediatric cancer locally, with a goal to scale the project globally.

“Make no mistake. Cancer is a genetic disease. It’s caused by changes in DNA,” said David Haussler, scientific director of the Genomics Institute, explaining that adult cancer is more influenced by lifestyle and environmental factors, but when it comes to childhood cancer, random mutations are the primary cause.

TCCI lead researcher Olena Morozova said treatment options for pediatric cancer are limited because pharmaceutical companies focus on adult cancers, where there are more cases.

At the genetic level, types of cancers once considered different are actually similar, new research is showing. This may explain why patients with the same type of cancer often don’t respond to similar

treatment: The cancers are different at the DNA level.

TCCI began California Kids Cancer Comparison to sequence the genome of tumors, from both adults and children, to observe DNA patterns. When researchers find similar patterns in an adult and pediatric cancer, they can usually try out an adult treatment for the child.

In 2000, UCSC’s Genomics Institute was the first to post the human genome on the Internet, open-source—an extraordinary act of selflessness for the benefit all of humankind. Today, 130,000 researchers use the site, which gets 1.2 million hits per day.

Now, many of competing researchers won’t share.

The TCCI needs funds, but the real obstacle, Haussler explains, is that genome data is held in institutes that keep it to themselves, due to concerns about privacy breaches, a desire to keep research exclusive, and other excuses. “The message here is about sharing,” Haussler said. JEANNE HOWARD

MERGING MATTER A four-page glossy mailer laying out a new vision for transportation

went out to likely voters recently. The green-and-white pamphlet from the Regional Transportation Commission (RTC) proposes an array of funding for local roads, highway widening, bike projects, buses and rail improvements. The plan—although the flyer makes no mention of it—would be funded by a possible new quarter-cent sales tax measure, which will probably hit ballots this fall.

Jack Nelson, a critic of the RTC’s plan, has lobbied the RTC hard to remove the 25 percent allocation for the highway from the proposed measure. He says the RTC wasted public money trying to sell its tax measure with the pamphlet. “You’d hardly know that they want to widen the highway on here,” says Nelson, co-chair of the Campaign for Sensible Transportation, of the flyer. “You just see a bunch of smiling kids on bikes, and help for Paratransit.”

The mailer does mention easing highway congestion, next to a picture of an ambulance sitting in traffic.

And in a bullet point toward the bottom, it mentions adding highway auxiliary lanes.

The flyer, which cost

the RTC $25,000, aims to inform residents about the Transportation Improvement Plan (TRIP), says RTC spokesperson Karena Pushnik, and to promote an RTC meeting on Thursday, June 16 at 9 a.m. in the Santa Cruz City Council Chambers. That’s when RTC commissioners are expected to approve putting a measure on the November ballot.

Longtime environmentalist Rick Longinotti filed a complaint with the Fair and Political Practices Commission (FPPC) over the RTC’s use of public funds for the mailer.

But Bruce Van Allen, Nelson’s fellow co-chair, doesn’t see anything nefarious.

He says agencies often inform voters about their needs before campaign season arrives.

“It’s a pretty normal thing for agencies to do a mailer,” says Van Allen, a former Santa Cruz mayor and longtime campaign worker.

“I wish [the subject matter] was something I was for. It’s just them trying to shape public opinion.

There’s nothing wrong with that.”

CREEK OUTLOOK <14 Napa River watershed by tightening restrictions on deforestation, which reduces a hillside’s ability to store groundwater. Without trees to impede it, rain sheets downhill, erodes stream banks and dumps sediment into the river, degrading fish habitat.

Though supporters gathered more than 6,000 signatures, when only 3,900 were required, the county counsel’s office rejected the initiative on a technicality on June 10, just four days after the registrar of voters qualified it for the ballot. Attorneys with Shute, Mihaly & Weinberger, the law firm that drafted the initiative, plan to file suit on behalf of initiative proponents.

If the initiative is ultimately adopted, developers of new vineyards would be limited to removing no more than 10 percent of oaks from hillside parcels and prohibited from removing most timber within 150 feet of large streams or wetlands. (The state’s proposed erosion-control regulations, now under review, would create best management practices for existing vineyards, while the county’s oak woodland initiative would protect hillsides before they’re converted or replanted to vines.)

History reveals not only the need for such protections, but also for better enforcement and significant penalties as well. In 1989, for instance, heavy rains sent tons of silt from a new vineyard on Howell Mountain into the Bell Canyon reservoir, fouling the main drinking-water source for St. Helena.

Now, all vineyard developments are subject to public review under the powerful California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).

Proponents of the Water, Forest and Oak Woodland Protection Initiative don’t believe that CEQA and county regulations will adequately protect the region’s fragile hillsides from projects like the Walt Ranch.

Last April, Joy Eldredge, manager of the city of Napa’s Water Division, submitted a withering critique of the project to the county planning department. The project’s environmental impact report, she wrote, failed to demonstrate that it won’t adversely affect the Milliken Reservoir, the city’s highest-quality water source. As the recession recedes

and crowding on the valley floor sends vineyards uphill, she predicted, the quality of Napa’s drinking water would decline as its cost rose.

As evidence of what can go wrong, Eldredge points to the city’s other drinking water supply, the Lake Hennessey reservoir. Unchecked fertilizer runoff from upstream vineyards has increased Hennessey’s phosphate and sulfate levels, which have spurred algal growth. The nutrients have also quadrupled the utility’s cleanup costs, which include treating the water with algaecides and chlorine. Unfortunately, this process can also generate byproducts called trihalomethanes, which have been linked to an increased risk of miscarriage, bladder and rectal cancers.

So far, the cost of treating Lake Hennessey water has not been passed on to customers, but if Lake Milliken were to be tainted by vineyard runoff, Eldredge says, rates would rise to cover the cost of new treatment infrastructure.

The Walt Ranch project will, like other hillside vineyards, employ runoff- and erosion-control systems; engineers will dig on-site retention ponds to hold stormwater, then pipe that flow to nearby creeks. But Thomas Lippe says those erosion control methods—which conform to a county ordinance—are fundamentally flawed. Yes, the ponds and pipes can control erosion on the vineyard property and those directly below it, but when that water shoots from a pipe under high pressure offsite, it undercuts streambanks, erodes streambeds, and stirs up sediment.

Lippe is a San Francisco attorney who successfully sued the county in 1999 over hillside vineyard development. Napa County, he says, “simply hasn’t adjusted its runoff calculation models to account for how water behaves once you put it into a plastic pipe.”

Walt Ranch developers Kathryn and Craig Hall—who moved to the area from Texas, where Craig Hall made his fortune in real estate and was once a part-owner of the Dallas Cowboys—defend the integrity of their project and their commitment to the environment. Their vineyards boast organic certification, and their St. Helena winery was California’s >18

community, and that means renting a bedroom in a house and sharing a kitchen and living with people you don’t know.

You’re living in a neighborhood that you don’t want to be, but that’s what they do.”

Mesiti-Miller, 62, says he traces his interest in affordable housing to 1983, when he moved to Santa Cruz’s eastside from Santa Clara, and it took him six weeks to find a place to live.

The problem is much worse now, says Mesiti-Miller, with 32 percent of people living alone in a city housing system that’s designed for single families and flooded with young people.

“That seems way out of whack with what our community actually needs. If you look around in our community, what we need is smaller, denser, more affordable housing.

That’s what we need and we’re going to need that well into the future,” he says.

Mesiti-Miller is also a board member of Friends of the Rail Trail, which supports the construction of a 32-mile biking and walking trail from Davenport to Watsonville along the existing railroad. He wants to see

the revitalization of Santa Cruz County’s passenger rail and bus system.

The current transportation system is broken, and Highway 1 congestion affects the entire region’s quality of life, says Mesiti-Miller.

“Who [in Santa Cruz] will say, at 4 o’clock in the afternoon, ‘Oh, I think I’ll go for a walk in Nisene Marks.’ Nobody does that. Why? Nobody wants to sit in traffic,” Mesiti-Miller says.

The crux of his vision for Santa Cruz— dense, affordable housing in pedestrianand bike-friendly neighborhoods, and a European-standard public rail and bus system—is the implementation of General Plan 2030. Right now, the city’s planning commission is engaged in updating its zoning codes along its corridors.

“The general plan basically is the document that’s going to allow our community to become the community we want it to be, and it’s going to happen over 20 years, 30 years,” Mesiti-Miller says. “It’s the community that our children are going to inherit, and the people who are moving here are going to inherit.”

SANTACRUZ.COM | GOODTIMES.SC | JUNE 15-21, 2016

called transit-oriented development, or T.O.D., and it tells us what we need are housing units along our corridors.”

As they are now, the corridors aren’t comfortable for pedestrian traffic, says MesitiMiller: Soquel Avenue carries around 30,000 cars each day, according to a 2014 report.

“Who wants to walk along Soquel between Morrissey and Capitola Road?

Nobody,” says Mesiti-Miller. “There’s no place to park, no place to ride your bike. It’s dangerous. A guy was killed there on his bike a year or two ago.”

Santa Cruz’s busiest streets need wider sidewalks, space for bicycles and places to park them, and trees, he says.

“We need to create neighborhoods along our corridor. How do we do that? Instead of designing our streets for the car, which is what we’ve done, we need to design the streets for the people in those neighborhoods.”

What’s more, Mesiti-Miller says he’s astounded by the gap between the city’s population growth and its relatively stagnant housing growth. Between 2010

and 2015, Santa Cruz’s population grew by more than 4,000 people, to 64,220, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.

Yet from 2007 to 2015, only 1,000 new housing units were built in the city, according to a State of the City report from May. (Since 2004, UCSC’s enrollment has increased by 2,700 and the campus has added 2,100 beds. Campus housing has had a 97 percent occupancy rate since 2011, according to the university.)

Meanwhile, the city has an oversupply of single-family homes, which make up two-thirds of Santa Cruz’s housing units. As a result, more people are packing into houses that aren’t meant to be shared, Mesiti-Miller says.

“The technical term for this is ‘unrelated adults living together,’” he says. “It’s strangers living together in houses that are only designed as single-family houses. You go and talk to them, and they say ‘I don’t want to live here. I don’t want to be detached from downtown. I don’t want to be detached from where I want to be spending my time.’

“These are the young people. They’re doing what they can to live in our

According to its environmental impact report, the project’s erosioncontrol system will reduce the current flow of sediment off undeveloped land into Milliken Creek by 43 percent, and level spreaders and rock aprons will disperse and filter storm water ejected from the ranch’s pipe outlets.

“We have a good project,” Mike Reynolds, president of Hall Wines, says. “We are following the directions of the scientists and the county.”

The Halls also promise to remove less than 10 percent of the property’s trees and mitigate those trees’ loss by planting trees elsewhere on the ranch and permanently protecting 551 acres of woodlands.

To Stuart Smith, a vocal propertyrights defender who has owned Smith-Madrone Vineyards & Winery, in the western hills above St. Helena, since 1971, the oak woodland initiative is a solution in search of a problem. If passed, he says, it would force him and other growers to apply for costly permits when they expand or replant their vineyards.

Napa Valley winegrowers already face plenty of regulation, he says.

Any additional requirements will only serve to drive out small, familyowned wineries like his, leaving only big or corporate-backed wineries— the very operations that “gloom-anddoom environmentalists” rail against.

“It’s already happening,” Smith says.

“The billionaires are driving the millionaires out.” And if the initiative passes? “My chainsaws are going to be running,” he says. “I’m not going to let these yahoos do this to me.”

Ted Hall, the president and CEO of St. Helena-based Long Meadow Ranch, a winery and diversified farm with 2,500 acres in production in Napa and Humboldt Counties, calls the proposed initiative an anti-farming ruse cloaked in environmentalism. No science backs up the oak woodland initiative, Hall claims, and it could even result in the removal of more non-oak trees and more hillside home development when vineyard-planting and other ag uses become too costly and difficult.

Behind the battle over the Beach Flats Community Garden

BY JACOB PIERCE

I

t was October of last year when Councilmember Cynthia Chase brought about 20 gardeners to Santa Cruz City Hall on Center Street to sit down with Kris Reyes, the Santa Cruz Seaside Company’s spokesperson, and discuss the future of the Beach Flats Community Garden.

In the weeks leading up to the talk, activists in neon shirts reading “Guarde el Jardín” had been crowding small meeting rooms. Green-space supporters had

written impassioned letters to local newspapers imploring everyone to do whatever they could to save the cacti, corn and other vegetables on the nearly half-acre patch of land owned by the Seaside Company, but farmed for 20 years by local gardeners, many of whom worried they had harvested for their last season there.

On the wall in that October meeting hung a historic oil painting of the San Lorenzo River in 1876,

of the last two compromises the Seaside Company had suggested.

The October discussion had laid the groundwork.

“We talked at length about what was important to them,” Reyes remembers. “I tried to share, as best I could, what was important to us. And I felt like each time we did that, we had a better understanding of what was important to each side, and I think those meetings were critical in allowing the gardeners to feel comfortable enough with us to sign their agreement and begin the transition. But we put a lot of time into working with them and understanding.”

If there was one thing that could be said to have set off and gradually worsened the arguments over the garden, which first turned contentious nearly a year ago, it would be the mutual feeling of disrespect each side felt from the other.

Garden advocates felt it was a sanctuary in a place practically overrun with Boardwalk visitors for several months out of the year. “The noise and the traffic and the trash,” says Vicki Winters, a longtime garden supporter. “It is this little oasis there.”

Meanwhile, Reyes and his coworkers wondered how they ended up getting yelled at after donating a parcel of land for 20 years.

“Everybody’s right. Nobody’s wrong in that,” Chase says. “That was their experience. That was their perception.”

and out the window, the city’s courtyard fountain lay dry and empty due to water rationing in the drought. Sitting in swivel chairs at the long wooden table, gardeners talked about what they loved about the garden, which the Seaside Company had indefinitely loaned to the community for two decades. In the nearly four-hour meeting, Reyes shared why the company—which also owns the Beach Boardwalk, a few motels, parking lots and other

Beach Flats real estate—needed the land back to start a nursery for their landscaping needs.

“I’m always looking for ‘What’s the middle way?’” explains Chase, now the city’s vice mayor, sitting in the same room where she started the discussion. “Where can we find some compromise? Does this have to be all or nothing? Is there some negotiation that can preserve the ability of these gardeners to keep gardening? I think that’s how it all started.”

The following month, Reyes would go on to announce at a Santa Cruz City Council meeting that the Seaside Company would be preserving 60 percent of the garden with a three-year lease, hopefully long enough for the city to find a permanent home for it. Many supporters left that council meeting still fuming, desperate to find a way to save the space in its entirety, but the new proposal offered a garden more than twice the size of either

Beach Flats, which is tucked between the San Lorenzo River and the Boardwalk, is the most economically depressed neighborhood in the city, with large families often crowded into small and sometimes rundown units.

Many in the community work at the neighboring Boardwalk. With so little park space, the garden has long provided a respite from the noise that fills the air during summer nights, and traffic that plugs Beach Street on the afternoons. In that context, the garden’s disappearance

quickly became an emotional one, says Councilmember Don Lane.

“We have this community within Santa Cruz that generally is disadvantaged. No one would question that,” Lane says. “And [when] something that’s really important to the community is threatened, a whole bunch of people are gonna go, ‘That’s wrong.’

That fueled the public discourse around this—‘This disadvantaged community is being wronged, and we must not allow that.’”

Reyes and the Seaside Company told city parks staff in late 2014 that the company would not be renewing the yearly $1 lease because it needed the garden for landscaping, and the city sent letters to the gardeners.

More than six months later, at what Reyes calls “the eleventh hour,” activists began their full-scale campaign to protect the garden, and many suggested seizing it in its entirety. Rumors began to spread.

“That’s where the frustration comes from,” says Reyes.

It isn’t uncommon, Lane explains, for people to feel slighted in the political process. Part of the job of a policymaker, he says, is demonstrating to constituents that they understand where someone else is coming from.

“That’s normal in a sense. That’s human nature,” says Lane, who was involved in the Beach Flats Community Garden discussions. “But it always gets tricky when multiple players are each coming into it with that feeling. Because then you choose a side, and somebody who already was feeling disrespected and doesn’t get anything out of it is really angry—like ‘Wow, I feel disrespected. I let you know how I feel about that, and you still disrespected me.’ It’s a double injury. To me, one of the most important things is to not allow that to happen. When the different parties are feeling disrespected and not heard, [it’s important] that we deliver something to them so that they don’t feel disrespected.”

HENCE THE FENCE

24

On a recent Thursday, the late afternoon sun is casting long shadows at the Beach Flats Community Garden as young neighbors play, running in circles in and out of a small shed.

Around them, young bean, kale, parsley, onion and squash plants sprout out of the ground. The spicy smell of a bonfire wafts through the air from a small pit that parents have gathered around, speaking Spanish.

“The way things are grown in that garden is different than other gardens, like the ones I see in the Westside,” artist Irene O’Connell tells GT on the phone, as she sketches. O’Connell is brainstorming a few drafts for the Beach Flats mural on Raymond Street that will be repainted more than two years after city workers coated the previous mural in white paint—the beginning of an ill-fated project for which the city later apologized.

(O’Connell, who is incorporating the garden into her community mural, will unveil her sketches at 7 p.m. on Wednesday, June 15 at Beach Flats Park and ask for input.)

The gardeners’ farming style, O’Connell notes, features traditional Latin American methods that have been taught by hand. “It’s a knowledge and it’s an important resource that’s been passed down through generations,” O’Connell says.

Toward the back of the garden, a wooden good-neighbor fence divides the green space from a large barren plot of dirt, where the Seaside Company will start a small nursery.

On the company’s side of the barrier, weeds have sprouted from the ground. And where the vacated patch of garden faces the San Lorenzo River levees, streamers still hang from a wire fence—pieces of cloth that once spelled out pro-garden messages, but have since been rendered indecipherable and tattered from six months of sun and rain.

The Seaside Company, which currently has an application into the Santa Cruz Planning Department to re-zone its portion, wants to use this land to grow and nurture plants that will go around the Boardwalk and in some of its

nearby parking lots. It’s part of giving guests a “softer experience,” Reyes says, “where it’s as much about the space that you’re playing in as the things that you’re doing when you’re there. The landscaping is a huge part of that strategy.”

For instance, the Boardwalk, Reyes says, is filling large colorful pots, nearly as tall as a person, with large red flowers around the park. “It’s about how you create the environment where people feel comfortable and at home,” he explains. “And one way you do that is with great plants and greenery and flowers and color. It’s just being integrated throughout the park.”

Back on its side of the fence, the Coalition to Save the Beach Flats Garden still holds meetings, and the group wants to make sure the garden is a big issue in the 2016 City Council race. Advocates still cling to the goal of preserving the original garden in its entirety.

“I hope the garden is going to be front and center of an issue of how politics play out in this city,”

Winters says. “It’s something I want to ask candidates.”

FAULT LINES “There’s been any number of miscommunications, and I think there has been both literally and figuratively so much lost in translation,” Chase says, remembering some of the mistakes in the city’s handling of the community garden issue. “It’s really sad to me. What was really clear in the meeting with the Seaside Company and the gardeners was they want to garden. If you just boiled it down, they were like, ‘We want to garden. When can we go? Let’s garden. Let’s get back on the land.’”

Everyone admits that the most tragic mishap happened on the day city workers came to divvy up the garden, and ended up cutting down fruit trees that were simply supposed to be moved after a harvest. There was also confusion about whether or not the city would be installing a bathroom, where the boundary lines of the garden would fall, and other

matters—many of which reinforced garden supporters’ distrust of the city and the Seaside Company.

Many have asked for the City Council to use eminent domain and seize the property. It’s something Councilmember Micah Posner suggested at an April meeting, although no other councilmembers supported the move. Lane and Chase worry the action would sour the city’s relationship with the Seaside Company, which it often partners with on local projects. The city attorney says the city would likely prevail in court. But the costs could be high, especially if the Seaside Company chose to fight it. And the lot’s estimated value, which the city would need to pay, could run close to $2 million.

In addition, that course of action could temporarily kick gardeners off their land, which is just about the last thing Lane and Chase say they want.

The plan, instead, is to work together with the Seaside Company to find a new permanent home for the garden.

Bernal has also prioritized affordable housing in the neighborhood, as part of a bigger strategy to improve Beach Flats—a discussion in which the Seaside Company will also participate.

Of course, housing was a priority 18 years ago too, when the city drafted its Beach Area Plan, as was the garden itself.

The Beach Area Plan of 1998 detailed the poor housing, insufficient park space, heavy tourist impact, unsafe streets, and overall low quality of life in the area.

It also recommended, nearly two decades before this issue came to a head last year, that the city look for a permanent home for the garden.

“The concern,” according to the plan, “stems from the fact that the site is currently on private property, which is proposed for eventual development.”

The city has realized some of its goals set in the plan, like a levee path system and the addition of the Nueva Vista Community Resources building and housing complex. But the garden stayed put for years, while Seaside

and the city re-approved the lease agreement each year without giving it much thought.

“The city has had 20 years of altruism on the part of the Seaside Company and in hindsight, we should have done something before now,” says City Councilmember Micah Posner, the council’s most vocal supporter of the garden. “I don’t blame the Seaside Company for wanting the land back. It’s just about preserving the culture, the open space and the agriculture in that neighborhood. For me, that’s what government is for, when a corporation has more influence than an entire community. The Seaside Company owns a huge part of that whole community.”

Posner, an activist at heart, is skeptical that the Seaside Company and the city will do the work to save what’s left of the garden—even suggesting it would take protests or maybe even a boycott to make any headway. But, he’s quick to add, he hopes he’s wrong.

No one knows exactly how anyone will make the garden “permanent,” especially because the Seaside Company doesn’t normally sell land. But Reyes and Lane point to the temporary Santa Cruz Warriors arena on an old Boardwalk parking lot as the kind of deal multiple parties can agree on.

Possibly the best option, Lane says, would be to keep the garden where it is now. He notes that the city has a lot of land as well and maybe the Seaside Company will show interest in some sort of exchange. Also, as Lane noted in the April council meeting, no one has taken eminent domain off the table for good.

Garden advocates aren’t taking anything for granted even though the city has made a commitment to protect the garden. Winters isn’t even surprised the city never created a permanent home for the garden after putting it in its plan 18 years ago.

“Things get put in plans,” Winters says. “And once the plan’s done, everyone pats themselves on the back. ‘Wasn’t that a good plan?’

Unless people protest to make things happen, they just don’t.”

“There’s a place in between languages and cultures—especially if you were an ex-pat as a child—where there’s an almost magnetic pull. It forces you to see the world a little differently, and it’s not always easy.” -THAD CARHART <26 larger story about coming to France with my parents and siblings. It travels from the 1950s to the present day, and it’s meant to be narrative nonfiction that tells the reader something about France they might not know or have access to.

How were you able to recapture your childhood memories?

I have four siblings, and we’re very close. When we first moved to France, everything was new, and there was an intensity to the experience that we shared. It was the family lore, the stories, that fueled my memories. My age was part of it, too. I was only four, and I’d never been to school before, so I started school in France and soaked it up like a sponge. At that age, especially while learning a second language, you pay close attention to everything. Your memories are intense and very visual, so they tend to stay with you. In fact, when I came back to Paris, what struck me was visual. When I was a kid, it was black, the buildings and monuments stained from years of coal soot.

In 1964, the minister of culture began to clean them—not because he thought it would change the face of the city, although it did, but because they were dirty. As a child, I thought they were all built of some black stone quarried in the depths of France. Returning was like seeing Paris’s albino twin. You can buy old postcards along the Seine that show aerial shots of Henri CartierBresson’s blackened city. Today, it’s this glistening white pearl of a place.

The NATO headquarters where your father worked was located at the Chateau of Fontainebleau. What makes it so special?

Fontainebleau shows a greater

scope of French architecture and style than any other site, with the possible exception of the Louvre.

And it’s 50 years older than the Louvre, 500 years older than Versailles. Every king from Louis VII in 1137 to Napoleon III in 1870 spent time there, and they all left something behind—sometimes a room, sometimes a wing, sometimes a courtyard or painting.

From the Renaissance to the 19th century to Marie Antoinette’s boudoirs, it’s got something from every part of France’s history of kings. The interesting thing to me is that in the restoration, there’s much more reverence for history than the monarchy. They give you enough information to consider the times and the priorities of the monarchs in that context, and then allow you to draw your own conclusions.

As an American who has spent a lot of his life living abroad, how do you deal with displacement?

I’ve thought about that a lot. I call it the “in between.” There’s a place in between languages and cultures—especially if you were an ex-pat as a child—where there’s an almost magnetic pull. It forces you to see the world a little differently, and it’s not always easy. We raised our kids in Paris, and they talk about missed American cultural references. But overall, it’s been an extraordinarily rich experience.

Thad Carhart will read from and discuss his new book at 7 p.m. on Thursday, June 16th, at Bookshop Santa Cruz, 1520 Pacific Ave., Santa Cruz. Free.

CELLO FAME Rebecca Roudman from Dirty Cello draws on her classical training to put a new spin on the blues.

Classically Untamed JUNE 15-21, 2016 | GOODTIMES.SC | SANTACRUZ.COM

From stages to yurts and caves, Dirty Cello is messing with musical conventions BY CAT JOHNSON

30

R

ebecca Roudman stands front and center in an automotive garage currently serving as a makeshift video set. The classically trained cellist rests her bow on the instrument’s strings, leans forward, plays a few long mournful notes, then breaks into a rousing, sassy rendition of the Robert Johnson classic tune, “Cross Road Blues.”

Though the gap between the rough garage setting and the polished cello sound is wide, it’s not entirely unexpected for Roudman and her band Dirty Cello. A Bay Area outfit that tosses aside musical convention, Dirty Cello keeps its repertoire, sound, and venues unpredictable, performing

in flashmobs, marathons and a cave. For a recent recording session, the members went to, as Roudman puts it, “all the weirdest Airbnbs in California,” recording a song at each stop. Along the way, they played and stayed in a yurt, a geodesic dome, a buffalo ranch, a pirate-themed room, a 1970s Airstream trailer, a stone cabin, and a log cabin.

“The weirder the better,” says Roudman. “We like to be adventurous and do weird things. It just happens that our instruments come along for the ride.”

In addition to a good-sized collection of cover songs, Dirty Cello also plays original bluegrass and blues tunes that give a nod to tradition

and showcase the musical variety Roudman grew up around. Exposed to classical music early, she picked up the cello at the age of 7, and didn’t put it down—she’s currently a member of the Santa Rosa Symphony and the Oakland Symphony. But her parents were also fans of roots and blues music, and B.B. King was in regular rotation at her house.

Roudman explains that playing the blues and bluegrass on a cello is not a huge stretch. For the fiddle parts, she just plays faster and higher up on the strings, and she says the instrument is a fantastic vehicle for expressing the emotions of roots music and blues.

“There’s something about the blues that is so soulful and lends itself to

the cello,” she says. “I know it’s really meant for the guitar, but there’s just something about it that works.”

Improvising over traditional and popular tunes is a key aspect of what Roudman does with Dirty Cello, but she had to warm up to the idea. After receiving a music degree in college, she wanted to stretch her musical comfort zone and try something different.

“My first thought was, ‘I can’t improvise,’” Roudman says. “‘I’m a classical player, that’s not what we do.’”

With encouragement from her then-boyfriend, now-husband and band guitarist Jason Eckl, however, she began improvising with a wide variety of acts, including singersongwriters, blues bands and hiphop acts. She immediately loved it.

When asked how she balances the classical with the experimental, Roudman says that she can improvise because of her classical training.

“All the stuff I learned about how to play correctly and how to get around my cello has been crucial to how I improvise,” she says.“ Classical training is what gave me the skills I needed.”

For Roudman, playing covers of popular songs was simply a step further down the road of musical freedom and experimentation.

“We just want to play songs that call to us, that are fun for us, or are fun to listen to on the radio,” she says. “For example, Jimi Hendrix’s ‘Purple Haze’—I’ve always just loved that song.”

Other covers in the band’s impressive repertoire include Guns N’ Roses’ “Sweet Child o’ Mine,” the Eurythmics’ “Sweet Dreams Are Made of These,” Creedence Clearwater Revival’s “Proud Mary,” and the Animals’ “House of the Rising Sun.” To watch Roudman perform, you’d think she’s having the time of her life—and she is.

“It’s the best feeling,” she says.

“It’s very freeing. I love being on stage and feeling the energy of the audience. I can’t describe it, but it’s a bit like a rollercoaster ride. It just feels really good.”

Cultivating an Ecoculture

By Tom Karwin The Garden Faire began ten years ago with messages about appreciating the best practices of organic gardening, conserving our finite water supply and protecting our watersheds from chemical contamination.

The Faire continues to deliver these messages, and in time has developed broader perspectives that emphasize the over-arching notions of sustainability and stewardship of the environment.

Another, more recent theme in the Garden Faire’s evolution focuses on the nutritional and healthful aspects of our food. Edible and ornamental gardening are complementary and each is indispensable within its respective sphere.

This year’s theme, Cultivating an Ecoculture, builds upon the foundations of past years by exploring ways that humans already partner with Nature and opportunities to strengthen that critical relationship.

To appreciate the timely importance of ecocultural ideas, consider the development of academic pursuits. At some early point in history, scholars found value in categorizing knowledge in disciplines: the natural sciences, the social sciences, the humanities and the arts. They sub-divided each discipline into the numerous subjects we now encounter in formal education, and splintered them further into courses within each subject.

These arbitrary and artificial divisions can lose track of the connectedness of biological and cultural diversity, and, indeed, of everything comprised by the diversity of life.

The academic disciplines are constructs, not real objects, which are directly observable.

Today, as we are challenged by global issues of economic instability, resource degradation, biodiversity loss and climate change, our responses must be based on real objects, and on an integrative approach to conserving Nature alongside human culture.

REAL ESTATE IN

OLDERHOOD

In this pursuit, we can learn from the integrative approaches that indigenous cultures have practiced for millennia. The existing ecocultures honor the unity of people with the rest of nature.

JUNE 15-21, 2016 | GOODTIMES.SC | SANTACRUZ.COM

For the present, it is sufficient to acknowledge that many groups, through many generations, have followed their instincts to achieve sustainability.

38

Working in harmony with nature take many forms: gardening organically, conserving water wisely, consuming natural foods, exercising regularly to maintain body health. These are integrative practices that we can adopt readily as individuals.

As we increase the scale of human activities, however, and consider policies affecting groups of people, distractions and barriers come into play. The academic disciplines might not always support the connectedness of real objects, but they can serve as the basis of developing ecocultural practices. Indeed, many examples of cross-disciplinary and multi-disciplinary initiatives can be cited. More would be helpful.

The work that lies ahead involves applying ecocultural concepts widely, in many (perhaps all) areas of human endeavor. The work includes adapting successful practices from the distant past to succeed in today’s fast-paced, complex society.

100 years ago, 70% of widows & widowers moved in with their children.

Today, only 38% do so.

70%

38%

In 1950, only 10% of all Americans over age 65 lived alone.Today, a full 1/3 of older Americans live alone, a figure that rises 10% to 40% for those 85 and older.

1950

Almost 90% of older Americans say they want to remain in their own homes as they age…

33%

40%

Today

Today 85+

…and falling poverty rates have made that choice more feasible for many.

Paralyzed with where to begin packing?

I have tricks and a team. Call me for help.

Changing the Conversation

The Garden Faire serves as one venue among the multitudes that are needed to advance the ecocultural perspective.

LOCAL BAND

FOUNTAIN OF BILE Fountain of Bile might just be the most metal band in Santa Cruz—and not only because of their name. The band has been brutal, uncompromising and always down for a good time—kind of like the day bassist Juan “Boomer” Peralta met singer Kevin “Smitty” Smith.

“We’re at this party, and Smitty and I decide to play ‘Punch in the Face,’ where we punch each other in the face,” says Peralta. “And we’d only known each other for about 20 minutes.”

JUNE 15-21, 2016 | GOODTIMES.SC | SANTACRUZ.COM

Fountain of Bile, which released its debut E.P. Barf Bag earlier this year, combines all the best aspects of heavy metal into a whirlwind of melodic destruction.

52

“The way this band works is way different than other bands I’ve played in,” explains Smith, who writes the intense lyrics. “But the majority of what we play, Moksha comes up with the riffs and everyone else builds on it.”

The Moksha in question is guitar player and co-founding member Moksha Hartshauser. He and drummer Ian Thornburgh founded Fountain of Bile two years ago, and recruited Peralta.

The E.P. captures the band’s live-show energy and gruesome humor with songs like “Xerostomic Regurgitation”—about dry-heaving bile after having “cotton mouth,”—and “Trapped in a Septic Tank.”

Hartshauser sums it up nicely.

“Fountain of Bile: fun for the whole family!” MAT WEIR INFO: 9 p.m. Friday, June 17. Blue Lagoon, 923 Pacific Ave., Santa Cruz. $5/door. 423-7117.

WEDNESDAY 6/15 COUNTRY ROCK

MISISIPI MIKE WOLF I’m not sure what’s up with the hacked spelling of Mississippi, but I am sure that Misisipi Mike Wolf is deeply steeped in classic country, complete with sorrowful slide guitar wails, tales of honky tonks and lost boots, and nostalgic longing for times gone by. A San Francisco-based artist with a penchant for melodic outlaw tunes, Wolf was named Best Singer/Songwriter by the San Francisco Bay Guardian two years in a row, and his music has appeared in numerous television shows, including Sons of Anarchy and True Blood. Also on the Western Wednesday bill is local Americana act Abalone Grey. CAT JOHNSON INFO: 9 p.m. Crepe Place, 1134 Soquel Ave., Santa Cruz. $8. 429-6994.

BLUES-ROCK

BOB MALONE A keyboard wiz who has spent the last two decades touring his music around the world, Bob Malone is a showman extraordinaire. As one reviewer wrote,

“If he could find a way to throw that Steinway grand over his shoulder the way a hot-dog guitar player does, I think he would.” The New Jersey-born Malone, who has been performing with John Fogerty since 2011, boasts a wicked blend of technical prowess and soul-shaking delivery. He also possesses a hard-driving sound capable of sending blues-rock fans into a frenzy.

He’s joined by multi-faceted singer-songwriter Lipbone Redding. CJ INFO: 7:30 p.m. Don Quixote’s, 6275 Hwy 9, Felton. $12/adv, $15/door. 335-2800.

THURSDAY 6/16 SKA

MU330 + SLOW GHERKIN What are two of the most underrated ’90s ska records? MU330’s Weezer-influenced Crab Rangoon and Slow Gherkin’s New-Wave-tinged Shed Some Skin.

MU330 and Slow Gherkin were two of the best ’90s ska bands that shook up the pop-punk-marching-band-horns formula other groups fell into, and they still hold up in 2016. Slow Gherkin is, of course, local guys. MU330 is

from St. Louis, but singer Dan Potthast has called Santa Cruz home for the past couple of decades. This is going to be an insane show. Everyone must dance. AARON CARNES INFO: 9 p.m. Crepe Place, 1134 Soquel Ave., Santa Cruz. $12. 429-6994.

JAZZ

ANTHONY WILSON & THE CURATORS A supremely skilled guitarist and composer, Anthony Wilson earned a vaunted reputation on the Los Angeles jazz scene in the mid-1990s when he started releasing albums featuring his vivid and talent-laden nonet. When he’s not touring with Diana Krall—a chair he’s held for 15 years—he’s a sought after soloist and arranger who’s contributed to recordings by Paul McCartney, Bobby Hutcherson, Willie Nelson, Aaron Neville, Mose Allison, and other singular stars. His new album Frogtown finds Wilson exploring singer/songwriter territory with pleasing results, playing finely crafted tunes with the Curators, a quartet featuring bassist Mike Elizondo, keyboardist Patrick Warren and drummer Matt Chamberlain, an enviably versatile player and

FRIDAY 6/17 HIP-HOP

LYRICS BORN Lyrics Born’s spitfire lyrics are pure hip-hop, but often float over a wide array of music, from jazz to soul.

Last year, he released his fourth solo album, Real People, which is steeped

in New Orleans-style horns and funky ’70s beats. While the music might be the soundtrack to make a party crackin,’ the conscious lyricist keeps it real by rapping about immigration, family, and everyday struggles. This Friday he will be joined by a live band to keep the funk alive along with guest opener Sweet Plot. MW

as his songs are, he’s also a really funny guy, with some amusing in-between song banter. He’s opened for guys like Steven Wright and Robin Williams, and has held his own. AC

JAMES LEE STANLEY The first thing you should know about local James Lee Stanley is that he played the singing Klingon on Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. OK, maybe that’s not the most crucial tidbit about Stanley’s career, especially considering that he’s also been a really prolific recording artist, with more than 20 albums since 1970. He commands the acoustic guitar as a musical storyteller, and as a composer that utilizes the subtlest of details to add dynamic to his intimate acoustic performances. As compelling

Have you ever loved a sandwich so much it made you want to sing about it? That’s basically what’s going on with LA’s reverb-soaked garage-rockers Cherry Glazerr’s “Grilled Cheese.”

Music should reflect the author’s truth, and the topics of sandwiches, enduring cramps and mourning the loss of a pet are just the subject matter that happens to come up with Cherry Glazerr. It might seem jokey, but it’s anything but.

The trio, all barely out of high school, have a certain sweet, innocent charm about them, but also there’s a darkness swimming around their music. AC INFO: 8:30 p.m. Catalyst, 1011 Pacific Ave., Santa Cruz. $12/adv, $15/door. 429-4135.

FILM

BEST-LAID PLANS In ‘Maggie’s Plan,’ Maggie (Greta Gerwig) falls for a married man (Ethan Hawke), but eventually

finds herself desperate to get rid of him.

Mission: Improbable JUNE 15-21, 2016 | GOODTIMES.SC | SANTACRUZ.COM

Messy reality, deft comedy in ‘Maggie’s Plan’ BY LISA JENSEN

58

M

aggie’s Plan in not exactly a romantic comedy. It’s not an antiromantic comedy either, although it leans in that direction.

There are romantic elements in the story, but they tend to be fleeting in this postmodern comic hybrid in which pairing up with one true love is not a necessary ingredient for a happy ending.

The movie takes place on the fringes of the literary/academic milieu of New York City that director Rebecca Miller (daughter of Arthur) knows so well. It stars indie-darling Greta Gerwig as Maggie, a sunny transplant from Wisconsin who teaches business classes to young entrepreneurs.

Maggie borders on the so-square-she’s-

hip category, tromping around Central Park in her penny loafers and plaid wool coat, and fawning over the child of her best friend (and ex-boyfriend), Tony (Bill Hader), and his wife, Felicia (Maya Rudolph).

Maggie’s initial plan is to have a baby of her own. But she can’t seem to stay in a relationship longer than six months, as she explains to Tony, so instead of waiting around to get married first, she’s opted for artificial insemination. With her typical efficiency, she’s even found herself a designated sperm donor, Guy (Travis Fimmel, from Vikings), who makes artisanal pickles.

But on campus one day, Maggie crosses paths with John (Ethan Hawke), an occasional guest lecturer,

described by Felicia as “the bad boy of fictocritical anthropology.”

Something of a minor rock star in his field, who has published several academic books, John is also working on a novel. When Maggie agrees to read the first chapter, and responds with enthusiasm, they start spending more time together.

John is married, with two kids, and his wife, famed Columbia lecturer Georgette, is rumored to be a “monster.” Julianne Moore is very funny as Georgette, with her ferocious Germanic accent, the severe planes of her face emphasized by an upswept bun that comes to a point on the top of her head. John never acts like he has a problem with his wife’s success—until the night he arrives on

Maggie’s doorstep in tears to confess he’s in love with her.

This would be the finale in a traditional rom-com, but it’s just the set-up in this one. Flash-forward three years: Maggie is married to John, who’s still working on his novel—pretty much to the exclusion of everything else in his life. Maggie has the child she always wanted, a little, blonde, mini-me daughter she adores. She’s also bonded with John’s kids, who stay with them part-time. But, along with being the chief breadwinner, and day-planner (unless her plans conflict with John’s, when she has to defer to his schedule), Maggie has all the parental responsibility of taking care of the kids, and chauffeuring them around.

It’s a thoroughly modern arrangement that’s taking its toll on Maggie, now that she realizes how “self-absorbed” John is. (This is the allpurpose adjective with which everyone in the movie describes everyone else; in this insular community, who isn’t?)

At a book-signing for the vitriolic novel Georgette has written about her breakup with John, Maggie and Georgette meet for the first time—and they start to get along. Which leads to Maggie’s next improbable plan: getting Georgette back together with John (and getting him out of her hair).

Fictocriticism is an academic discipline that actually exists, and while it sounds pretentious enough to have been invented for this movie, its merging of narrative story and critical theory also works as a sly metaphor for Maggie and her plans.

She’s pretty sure she can arrange life much more efficiently, according to her theories, than waiting around for fate, but she’s consistently stymied when messy reality barges in.

Gerwig manages to be engaging, despite Maggie’s serial cluelessness; her relationship with her wisecracking friends feels warm and genuine. Filmmaker Miller’s satire of academia is tart and funny without being waspish. But Moore is the centerpiece here, both comic and emotional, a nifty transition guided

by Miller with deft, forgiving aplomb.

MAGGIE’S PLAN *** (out of four) With Greta Gerwig, Ethan Hawke, Julianne Moore, Bill Hader, and Maya Rudolph. Written and directed by Rebecca Miller. A Sony Classics release. Rated R. 98 minutes.

FILM NEW THIS WEEK CENTRAL INTELLIGENCE An overweight high-school kid with braces singing “Never Gonna Get It” grows into the Rock we all know and love (he saves puppies in real life, guys), who’s joined the CIA. Poor Kevin Hart keeps ending up in long, involved car rides where the driver is way better equipped to handle the situation than he is.

Rawson Marshall Thurber directs.

Dwayne Johnson, Kevin Hart, Danielle Nicolet co-star. (PG-13) 114 minutes.

DARK HORSE The mines closed, the beers opened. What was left for a close-knit Welsh mining community? The races, as a group of friends from a working men’s club decide. They take on the “sport of kings” and, despite all odds, their fierce working-class horse shakes up the competition. Louise Osmond directs. (PG) 85 minutes.

JUNE 15-21, 2016 | GOODTIMES.SC | SANTACRUZ.COM

FINDING DORY There are no words, only happy squeals of joy. Now go find that fish! Andrew Stanton, Angus MacLane direct. Ellen DeGeneres, Albert Brooks, Ed O’Neill co-star. (PG) 103 minutes.

60

WEINER He was the man who was fighting for the little guy, and then his, erm, little guy got the best of him. This documentary is the story of how Anthony Weiner tried to overcome a career-ending embarrassment and the hilarious, often painful ways in which he forged through the final death sputterings of a disastrous mayoral campaign. Josh Kriegman, Elyse Steinberg direct. Huma Abedin, Amit Bagga, Adam S. Barta co-star.

(R) 96 minutes.

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

woman who’s been diagnosed with “female hysteria” for defying the societal standards of her time— where have we heard this before?

Lewis Carroll was so before his time, and in this adaptation Alice seeks not only to save her friends, but also finds herself in a battle against Time himself. Helena Bonham Carter looks smashing, as always, and Sacha Baron Cohen plays Time.

While it might be mildly terrifying for children, and Tim Burton isn’t directing this one, for a colorful fantasy and fantastic story, how could you stay away? James Bobin directs. Mia Wasikowska and Johnny Depp co-star. (PG) 113 minutes.

A BIGGER SPLASH IMDB may have given this only a 6.5/10, but we give the trailer alone a solid 9/10. That mystery! That intrigue!

And with Ralph Fiennes and Tilda Swinton (she’s a rock star. No, really, she’s literally playing a rock star.

You guys!), plus the really pretty love interest from The Danish Girl—can you really go wrong?

Dakota Johnson is in it as well: we’ll allow it. Luca Guadagnino directs.

Matthias Schoenaerts co-stars. (R) 124 minutes.

ANGRY BIRDS While we may have thought that an entire movie based on a popular game would be really, really stupid, this one looks fairly inventive and maybe somewhat hilarious—also, OMG, these characters are adorable.

Red is the angriest of the birds, although he won’t admit he has an anger problem (even when he accidentally kicks a baby bird instead of the intended soccer ball). He’s misunderstood, and no one pays attention to his mistrust of the strange and mysterious pigs who arrive on their shores—until they steal all the eggs. Clay Kaytis, Fergal Reilly direct. Peter Dinklage, Jason Sudeikis, Kate McKinnon costar. (PG) 97 minutes.

CAPTAIN AMERICA: A bunch of superheroes! Captain America and Iron Man fight! Marvel things!

Anthony Russo, Joe Russo direct.

Chris Evans, Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johansson co-star. (PG13) 146 minutes.

THE CONJURING 2 Lorraine and Ed, crosses turning upside down, murder, suicide, both, whatever. We can’t tell you what the first one was about because certain film blurb writers are too afraid of scary movies to watch them with the sound on—or, like, at all. But, chances are that if you’re up for watching the second one you probably liked the first one and IMDB gives it 9.1 stars out of ten, so those are all good signs for fans of horror films and paranormal investigators.

James Wan directs. Vera Farmiga, Patrick Wilson, Madison Wolfe co-star.

(R) 143 minutes.

THE HUNTSMAN: WINTER’S WAR Everyone is super fierce, excellently CGI’d and wearing the best in fairytale attire (especially Emily Blunt as Freya and Jessica Chastain as badass huntswoman Sara) in this sequel. Charlize Theron’s faux English accent is still a little hard to swallow, but we’ll let it go because Chris Hemsworth may be getting shirtless in this one. Plus, no Kristen Stewart in this pre-Snow White rendering. Cedric Nicolas-Troyan directs. (PG-13) 114 minutes.

THE JUNGLE BOOK Did anyone think just how terrifying a liveaction version of The Jungle Book would be when they saw the 1967 Disney classic (and no, the 1994 version doesn’t count even if Westley from The Princess Bride was in it)? All adults are invited to be equally excited for this fantastic reinterpretation brought to life with newcomer Neel Sethi as Mowgli and the various jungle animals voiced

by Hollywood heavy-hitters Billy Murray, Ben Kingsley, Idris Elba, Lupita Nyong’o, Christopher Walken, and Scarlett Johansson. Jon Favreau directs. (PG) 105 minutes.

THE LOBSTER The first thing that Colin Farrell hears upon arriving at the City is, “If you fail to fall in love with someone during your stay here, you’ll turn into an animal.”

It’s not a joke. Who knew someone could so expertly and macabrely reinvent the romantic comedy? It’s been called the year’s most original movie, and with Ben Whishaw, Rachel Weisz, John C.Reilly and Léa Seydoux as players in this not-sodistant dystopian future—where

singles are given only 45 days to fall in love, or are turned into animals—that sounds about right.

Yorgos Lanthimos directs. Jessica Barden co-stars. (R) 118 minutes.

LOVE & FRIENDSHIP “How jolly, tiny green balls—what are they called?” “Peas.” Oh, Jane Austen, this is going to be fun. Whit Stillman directs. Kate Beckinsale, Chloë Sevigny, and Xavier Samuel co-star. (PG) 92 minutes.

MAGGIE’S PLAN Reviewed this issue (R) 98 minutes.

ME BEFORE YOU Well, she’s no khaleesi in this one, but Emilia Clarke smiles more, wears goofier get-ups and her eyebrows are expressive enough for a cinematic experience all of their own. Don’t even try to stem the waterworks here folks; beautiful people in castles, a brooding half-paralyzed former prince (Or was that a different movie? He’s a Disney prince, right?) falling in love but he’s still brooding over sad things.

Everyone is going to be bawling—we already are and we only watched the trailer. Thea Sharrock directs. Sam Claflin and Janet McTeer co-star.

(PG-13) 110 minutes.

MONEY MONSTER George Clooney and Julia Roberts reunited on the big screen! Unfortunately, it’s under slightly stressful conditions as Clooney plays a financial TV host who is held up on air by a crazed investor who takes over the studio. Jodie Foster directs. Jack O’Connell co-stars.

(R) 98 minutes.

NEIGHBORS 2 The neighbors are back, and this time they’re up against a bunch of shrewd sorority sisters. Plus, more ridiculous antics, terrifying drugs, crazy plots and shots of Zac Efron shirtless.

Nicholas Stoller directs. Chloë Grace Moretz, Zac Efron, Rose Byrne co-star. (R) 92 minutes.

NOW YOU SEE ME 2 Well, the tricks are convincing and so is the music, so we’ve got a cautious excitement for the return of “The Four Horsemen” (does anyone else think that’s a dumb name for a bunch of Vegas magicians?) with

a cast of Jesse Eisenberg, Mark Ruffalo, Morgan Freeman, Woody Harrelson, Dave Franco, Lizzy Caplan and … wait for it … Daniel Radcliffe? Jon M. Chu directs. (PG13) 129 minutes.

POPSTAR: NEVER STOP NEVER STOPPING Andy Samberg kills Seal. Need we say more? Akiva Schaffer and Jorma Taccone direct.

Imogen Poots and Bill Hader costar. (R) 86 minutes.

THE NICE GUYS Ryan Gosling as a bumbling, crass detective with a God complex, and a shameless, greasy Russell Crowe to keep him in check—with all the sex, drugs and rock ’n’ roll of a mob-infested 1970s Los Angeles. These gentlemen have never looked better. Shane Black directs. Angourie Rice co-stars. (R) 116 minutes.

TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s a ... giant green turtle wearing a do-rag. Plus Megan Fox and Laura Linney, naturally. Dave Green directs. Will Arnett and Tyler Perry co-star. (PG-13) 112 minutes.

WARCRAFT Oh, hey, a movie based on a video game that looks a lot like a video game. Duncan Jones directs. Travis Fimmel, Paula Patton, Ben Foster co-star. (PG-13) 123 minutes.

X-MEN: THE APOCALYPSE Finally, James McAvoy goes bald. Oh, and literally everyone else is in this movie, too. Those special effects do look pretty cool, but 144 minutes? Comic-book movies these days should come with intermissions. Bryan Singer directs. Michael Fassbender and Jennifer Lawrence co-star. (PG-13) 144 minutes.

ZOOTOPIA Thank goodness it’s become OK for adults to watch kids’ movies (it has, right?). We’d gladly take a cunning bunny cop with her fox informant trying to uncover a conspiracy in a city of adorable animated animals than watch Gerard Butler do … well, anything, really. Byron Howard, Rich Moore, Jared Bush direct. Ginnifer Goodwin, Jason Bateman, Idris Elba co-star. (PG) 108 minutes.

SUMMER SNACK

My favorite afternoon snack right now is a raw, fiery radish from Blue Heron Farms, $2 for two generous bunches at the downtown farmers market on Wednesdays. Vibrant hues of ruby, cerise and watermelon conceal crisp alabaster flesh within these little jewels. Cold, crunchy and flavorful, some are mildly zesty, and others peppery to the point of sinus clearing—a refreshing midafternoon perk. Spread with good butter and a little Maldon sea salt, with a glass of rosé, isn’t a bad way to enjoy them either.

Oyunaa’s is real Mongolian mountain cuisine right in our backyard BY LILY STOICHEFF

hen I want to get away from it all, but can’t, I like to escape through food.

With increasingly hotter days, I’ve been imagining myself traveling across the chilly windswept steppes of Mongolia in search of dumpling nirvana. Thankfully, I’ve found it much closer to home, at Oyunaa’s Mongolian Cuisine. This is no Americanized Mongolian barbecue (as a server informed one couple upon arrival), but hearty fare from a high, cold nation rooted in nomadic history.

Vegetarians and gluten-sensitive be warned: Oyunaa’s commitment to tradition means they rarely

make concessions for dietary preferences.

On a recent visit with a friend, thick, captivating smells drew me in as I approached the small restaurant nestled off the intersection of Seabright and Soquel avenues. My friend said the few minutes he’d had to wait outside had been torture.

Inside, gold fixtures and native-artaccented indigo walls crawl up to high ceilings—decor that befits a restaurant serving cuisine from the “Land of the Eternal Blue Sky.” The flat Khuushuur dumplings ($14) are not to be missed. A braid of pinched dough seals a pocket of spiced, garlicky beef and is fried to a golden brown. Equally as delicious

are the traditional steamed Buuz dumplings ($16), especially when hit with a splash of Oyunaa’s homemade mushroom soy sauce and one of their fiery hot sauces. A bit lighter on the palate are the bite-sized Bansch chicken dumplings ($10) served in a clear broth, aromatic with fresh dill.

If you’re lucky enough to arrive on an evening when the special pan-seared lamb riblets ($20) are available, go for it—they are so tender you can suck them off the bone, caveman-style. Our carnivorous feast was accompanied by tangy vegetable slaw, a supremely carroty carrot salad, creamy potatoes and a crisp local saison from Sante Adairius Rustic

If you love food and are on the ’gram, I recommend you follow @ curatedfeast. Curated Feast founder Liz Birnbaum’s beautiful posts are tiny yet thoughtful history lessons about the origins of food, with topics ranging from the Silk Road to ancient maritime trading routes to the vernal customs that led to spring rolls. Plus, you’ll be the first to know about her themed dining events, where she collaborates with chefs, farmers, florists and historians to explore the geographical origins and cultural repercussions of what we eat through unforgettable dinners. Curated Feast’s next event, Botanical Imperialism, will be held in San Francisco on June 19. thecuratedfeast.org.

SURPRISE MI

One of the best things I discovered while I was traveling through Vietnam was bahn mi, a sandwich served on a baguette, smeared with earthy, creamy pâté and filled with pork, crunchy pickled daikon and carrots, jalapeños, cilantro and mint: French Imperialism meets fresh Vietnamese flavor at its finest. So I was delighted to find out that Third Coast Chef founder Andy Potterfield, previously of Cremer House, will be serving up bahn mi for lunch every Friday at Assembly’s POPUP. His version is smoky, creamy, crunchy, and supremely satisfying. Do your mouth a favor and check it out.

arbecue. The word alone can provoke intense salivation— or, if mentioned to the right person, detailed explanations of 20-hour cooking techniques. Santa Cruz County is fortunate to have its fair share of barbecue joints, including Aptos St. BBQ, which is owned by the same folks who own Mission St. BBQ and a handful of others in Silicon Valley. We caught up with co-owner Larry Ingram to ask him what makes Aptos St. unique in the vast landscape of barbecue.

Tell me a little about your barbecue style, and how that translates into the flavor, texture, etc.

LARRY INGRAM: We definitely go with the traditional smoke barbecue. It’s all wood fire, slow-cooked at a very low temperature. Everything’s cooked for hours and hours. The brisket takes about 22 hours. The pulled pork takes anywhere from 15 to 20 hours. I would say while our style is a traditional smoke method, we very much like to claim our California region. People like to say their barbecue is Texas style or Southern style. We’re a mixture of all those things. Our pork is kind of Southern style. Our brisket is cooked more of a Texas style. We also serve a lot of tri-tip. That’s a cut you don’t find anywhere but California.

What’s the 831?

It’s a collaboration we do with El Salchichero and Sante Adairius. We combine their sausages with some 831 IPA, and that’s Sante Adairius, which is a well-known local brewer.

We smoke the sausages and sell it exclusively at our location. We recently added a jalapeño version.

The sausage is made with smoked pork, cheddar cheese and the 831 IPA. You’ve also been a big supporter of live music.

Aptos is where we first started the live music. It’s a free thing. We started the day of the blues festival in 2009. We didn’t do seven days a week until about one to two years into it. I’ve carried that theme over to Mission St. BBQ. There is a local rotation going on. We also inject acts from outside the area.

We get some pretty stellar acts. Kim Wilson would be a big name—he was the lead singer, harmonica player for the Fabulous Thunderbirds. He comes in frequently. Rick Estrin is another big-name harmonica player. He’s local now, but he’s originally from the Chicago area. The other big name is Mark Hummel. One up-and-coming youngster is Big John Atkinson.

fun aspect of doing a wine tasting at the Annieglass studio in Watsonville is that you get to do a factory tour as well.

Such was the case when we participated in a tour and tasting— with Ser Winery featured and winemaker Nicole Walsh on hand pouring her excellent wines. One that caught my attention was Walsh’s spirited Rosé of Nebbiolo 2015 ($20)—a gorgeous salmon-hued beauty with an abundance of exotic fruity notes. Aromas of passionfruit, mango and guava give this Rosé a tropical edge with some nuanced earthy flavors. It’s a good summer wine to keep on hand—and it comes with a screw cap, so it’s easy to open up.

As glass artist Annie Morhauser leads a little group on a tour of her studio, we glide around the factory floor, glass of Ser wine in hand, marveling at her imagination and expertise in creating such stunning designs. Morhauser’s Annieglass sells nationally and worldwide, and her company has gained international recognition.

Annieglass’ delightful winetasting events are held most weekends. Coming up from 1-4 p.m.

Saturday, June 18 is a wonderful pairing: Santa Cruz Mountain Vineyard will be pouring Grenache Blanc, Pinot Noir, Petite Sirah, and Cabernet Sauvignon—with delicious chocolates by Ashby Confections.

And mark your calendars for July 30 when Annieglass will be holding its special Annie-versary party celebrating 20 years in Watsonville and 33 years in business. There will be food trucks and beer with all proceeds going to local nonprofit Digital NEST. Ser Wine Company, serwinery.com 901-7806.

H RISA’S STARS BY RISA D’ANGELES SHIFTING STRUCTURES, FATHER’S DAY We have a complex and busy week ahead. Friday, Saturn squares Neptune (and again in September before the elections). Saturn is social structures, the laws. Neptune places all social structures and laws no longer working on a ship and quietly glides away.

Sunday is Father’s Day. We recognize and celebrate all fathers in all shapes and sizes, genders and relationships. Fathers who are mothers. And the mothers who are fathers, too.

Monday, June 20, is a blue moon, the second full moon (solar festival of Humanity) under Gemini. Eleven hours later, Sun enters Cancer, it’s Summer solstice. The solar festival (full moon) occurs early morning (4:02 Pacific time). The Sun at 29 degrees Gemini (important degrees) continues its close contact with Venus (3 degrees Cancer). Blue moons create an intensity of energies. This solar festival has a double potency.

The Sun in Gemini is poised at that last degree (29) at the full moon time. The Sun later shifts into Cancer and Summer begins.

The Sun is poised at the Tropic of Cancer, resting for three days before beginning its journey southward. Beginning at summer solstice, the light in our world decreases.

A paradox.

Solstices and the equinoxes are the four most important festivals of the annual cycle of Light and Dark. At these cardinal (Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn in cardinal signs initiating a new state) points specific spiritual energies of Light are present, through which many layers of wisdom are able to unfold. By attuning to these energies of Light (containing information) we are able to develop subtle perceptions and understandings.

Monday is the longest day of light for the year.

ARIES Mar21–Apr20

LIBRA Sep23–Oct22

You will now feel there is more than enough inner strength and energy to meet all the expectations and demands of work and the world, both self imposed and from others. You will bring beauty and balance, prosperity and connectivity to your work. Also, detail, order and organization. These you will teach and then ask of others as well. Careful. Be patient.

A spiritual essence (message) begins to stream into your daily life. It expands you and provides the gift of understanding. It is alleviating all judgments you may be carrying since childhood. Those judgments affect your present life and although you think you’re happy, the shadow of judgment is eventually projected upon those around you. Even in the best relationships.

Forgiveness releases us in the same way truth does.

TAURUS Apr21–May21 It’s time to tend to yourself now. To spend time where you live in order to order and organize both inner and outer realities. It’s been a long long time (years?) since you’ve been able to assess needs in your personal life.

Since you’re been focused outwardly, saving the world, things at home are quite in need. Seeking assistance is practical. For there is much work to do. Afterward there may be a move.

SCORPIO Oct23–Nov21

GEMINI May 22–June 20

SAGITTARIUS Nov22–Dec20

Consider your needs for a while. Allow yourself to think of all the things you need in all aspects of your life. Consider the state of your home and family, your relationships and money, your communication and sense of well-being. Are all these as they should be?

Do you offer comfort, calmness and ease to others?

Assess, observing quietly over time. Allow emotions to be acknowledged should they appear.

Remember to do your work with composure, inner poise, exhibiting no pressure toward self or others. You are being watched (scrutinized) as to your ability to create Right Relations, balancing leadership, friendship, keeping the two separate with finesse, elegance, grace and skill. This is quite a job. You most likely already display all of this. Now more is called for.

JUNE 15-21, 2016 | GOODTIMES.SC | SANTACRUZ.COM

CANCER Jun21–Jul20

It’s good for you to seek, ask for and assess the truth, available to you from your feelings and senses. Then it is good to share with people what you feel about everything, and why. When we speak the truth about something, sincerity and integrity enter every relationship and interaction. When speaking the truth, be neutral, ask questions, be kind and courteous. Truth sets everyone free. You, too.

You are being very responsible. Your creative endeavors are being applied to daily life situations. Daily life is transformed.

Is there something else you would like to be doing in your life allowing you to be out and about into the wilds, serving the animal (or bird or fish) kingdom, offering them food, shelter, medicine and comfort? Do you want to be elsewhere?

However, you are here. Needed here.

VIRGO Aug23–Sep22 You have new vital energy. You’re active, self-confident, happy, purposeful and enthusiastic (filled with God). You’re so busy, there’s no time for relaxation. When you’re not working night and day, counting your blessings, notice how you’ve expanded into a new sense of self confidence. It’s been growing all along.

Notice past life gifts coming forth.

What expansion is occurring in your life? Does it feel like a revolution? What new direction is being taken along with the seeking of a new self-identity, new focus and activities?

Everything’s changing for you. It’s not just your perception.

Things you’ve sought eventually appear. Now all you have to do is begin to prepare without feeling overtaken, overwhelmed or dissolved. Remain poised at the center.

CAPRICORN Dec21–Jan20 Many days, weeks and months of work reach a summit.

If you look back on the autumn of last year, something began. Now it has reached a point of manifestation, of being seen in the world. Perhaps this is you, who is presently always in a state of transformation and transfiguration. There are perhaps lots of thoughts concerning travel, going far away, experiencing new cultures, foods, people. Yes, go. There’s a place for you.

AQUARIUS Jan21–Feb18 Tend to money carefully. Put money away for future needs.

Always do this second, when money comes in. Tithe some of it first. This assures you a constant supply in terms of your life needs. When we give, more is returned. Humanity is yet to learn this. That the new materialism is the new Sharing Society. You could be leading humanity in this endeavor. You’ll say to others, “Don’t worry, be happy!”

PISCES Feb19–Mar20 You shift between pain and feeling wounded, grieving and being comforted. It’s such an interesting polarity. Both can be felt as extremes. However, you seek the way in between, a point of poise, and you realize it’s a “razor’s edge.” Yes, it is. A crossroads is coming up. A decision, too.

You need sensitive handling. Tend to yourself, your money and resources with great care. You reach out to family and bring everyone who is separated together.

DANIELLE FARAOLA, 40-Year Customer, Santa Cruz. Occupation: Mom Hobbies: Cooking, travel, reading, mountain biking, beach time, my kids Astrological Sign: Virgo LEE FARAOLA, 43-Year Customer, Santa Cruz. Occupation: Resource recovery, City of Santa Cruz Hobbies: Mountain biking, water sports, barbecuing Astrological Sign: Scorpio Is Shopper’s your go-to market? DANIELLE: “Yes, I shop here at least twice a week. Shopper’s is a better value than all other markets, including the big stores.

We buy all of our meat from Shopper’s such as the teriyaki skirt steak, marinated chicken, breakfast sausages, and lots more.” LEE: “I really like the freshness of the seafood — salmon, red snapper, halibut — it doesn’t smell like week-old fish. Much of it is local. And the service is personal. Excellent!”

DANIELLE “The butchers remember how we like things such as how the kids like their lunch meat sliced. Very personal service. Our sons, Lee, Macoy, and Jack, always feel welcomed here. Family-owned makes a difference.”

How so? DANIELLE: “You get the feeling they really care about their products and the people. Take the produce: it’s fresh and totally dependable. The quality never changes.” LEE: “We know a lot of the farmers and like that we’re supporting them. And the pricing for both the conventional and organic products is good, especially for what you’re getting.” DANIELLE: “If you’re shopping for good ingredients this is the place to be. If you want a deal on junk food, go to the chain stores. Shopper’s is old school and feels like home. It’s easy. You can find everything is five minutes.” LEE: “And it’s clean. I used to come here with my grandfather in the late ‘70s when he stocked products that Shopper’s sold.”

Lots of good memories here… LEE: “For sure. It’s the cornerstone of the community.” DANIELLE: “You realize when you travel how lucky we are — you can’t find another market like Shopper’s anywhere. You find all these great local products here like Donnelly Chocolates ice cream bars, Kelley’s bread, Verve coffee, Route 1 produce — the list goes on.” LEE: “And the service is great. They get you in and out pretty quickly.

Everyone is super friendly. If you can’t find something, they’ll go upstairs and locate it for you. Management must treat their employees really well.” DANIELLE: “I’ve told new residents not to shop anywhere else.

Shopper’s is the best place for newbies to get started in Santa Cruz. It’s the place to go.”
