OPINION

EDITOR’S NOTE Why is it important to have women in the field of winemaking?

It’s not a question most of us would think about very much, even if we were reading a story about women winemakers.

At most, we would probably give it a sort of standard Santa Cruz-y answer like “Because gender equality is important in any field.”

That’s certainly true, but what I like most about Christina

Re: “Most Path” (GT, 6/22): The influence of Noah Levine in the Buddhist community cannot be overemphasized. He took a mostly white, fairly smug middle-class world and opened its doors to punks, addicts and other outsiders. When I first saw his book Dharma Punx, I looked at the photo of the heavily tattooed geek and said to myself, “Well, I got nothing in common with this guy,” and tossed it back on the table. Years later, I joined his sangha in Los Angeles and found his honesty, courage, inclusiveness and deep compassion wildly refreshing in a Buddhist community so busy being “politically correct” it often avoided discussion of topics on the fringe.

DEFINED HOW? Re: “Redefining Marriage” (GT, 6/1): While many of us are striving to redefine gender, the cover graphic for this article simply serves to reinforce stereotypes (that of women in dresses/men in pants). Also, the graphic implies that the redefining of marriage seems to be that of three people with a gender-fluid person in the middle. The article content does not include this structure, so the ill-matched graphic is misleading and perhaps counterproductive. An apology from the editor is warranted.

ORLY LALUZ | SANTA CRUZ

Waters’ cover story this week is that it goes deeper than the easy answer—it explores what unique qualities women bring to the field of winemaking, and even whether wine made my a woman might taste different than wine made by a man. Just as in winemaking, those more complex properties are what make a story like this particularly intriguing.

It’s also an interesting look at how much opportunities for women have grown—or not—in the wine industry, and a great introduction to some local winemakers you may not have met before. Let’s raise a glass to them!

GIVE AND TAKE Re: “Hashed Out” (GT, 5/25): The names that groups choose for themselves are often quite indicative. Take Back Santa Cruz implies that the city, in which many of them did not grow up, is rightfully theirs, but has been wrongfully taken from them, a sentiment that often derives from selfish entitlement or fear of those who are different. As local organizations go, I far prefer Santa Cruz Gives.

WEAVING HISTORY Thank you Geoffrey Dunn for weaving so many pieces of Santa Cruz’s AfricanAmerican history into your piece illuminating and contributing to the historical knowledge of Santa Cruz, Louden London Nelson and Juneteenth (GT, 6/8).

Dunn’s pulling together all the facts and laying them out was very enlightening for many, I'm sure.

I can think of no one better to have taken this on. In our present climate, you have given readers and our community much to ponder about where we’ve been and where we’re headed.

Our Juneteenth committee has received many comments about this article and people have been sending it to their friends and family all over the planet. It has touched many and certainly contributed to a very successful 25th Juneteenth anniversary in Santa Cruz. Thank you again!

TEACH IT

PREACH IT

A new bill signed by Gov. Brown last week will provide more educational opportunities to prisoners, including those who have not yet been sentenced and await trial. Until now, educational programs were available only to those already sentenced. Assemblymember Mark Stone (D-Scotts Valley), who wrote the bill, wants to better reintegrate prisoners back into their communities through classes varying from substance abuse treatment to parenting. Participating inmates can get up to six weeks off their sentences. The law will take effect Jan. 1, 2017.

Catholic leaders across the counties of Santa Cruz, Monterey and San Benito have gotten together to fight climate change. Churches in the Diocese of Monterey have partnered with Green Power, a division of the Romero Institute, to create sustainable infrastructure at churches and get the word out about Community Choice Aggregation, a local plan to pool resources to provide cheaper, locally sourced, more sustainable energy.

The campaign has announced a launch event from noon to 4 p.m. on Sunday, July 17 at the Resurrection Church in Aptos.

What can we do about the needles on the beach?

BY MATTHEW COLE SCOTT

Revamp the needle exchange program. I think it’s crap, because it’s not an exchange— they’re just handing them out.

DEBRA MAPES SANTA CRUZ | SELF EMPLOYED

I support the one-for-one needle exchange, because I think it would be better than what they have now.

ERIC SKAU SANTA CRUZ | BAR MANAGER

They should mark the needles so they’re able to distinguish who received the needle and hold that person accountable in some sort of way. I don’t know how you do that.

ALDO OLIVIARI SANTA CRUZ | BARTENDER

BERNADETTE BOSSINGER SANTA CRUZ | MOTHER

Easy access to the recycle program, so that it’s convenient for people who need to exchange their needle. Then they don’t have to do it on the beach.

The exchange should be a one-for-one exchange, and that will drive down drug use and disease related to drugs.

ROB BREZSNY FREE WILL ASTROLOGY Week of June 29 ARIES Mar21–Apr19

LIBRA Sep23–Oct 22

During winter, some bears spend months hibernating.

Their body temperatures and heart rates drop. They breathe drowsily. Their movements are minimal. Many hummingbirds engage in a similar slow-down—but they do it every single night. By day they are among the most manic creatures on earth, flapping their wings and gathering sustenance with heroic zeal. When the sun slips below the horizon, they rest with equal intensity. In my estimation, Aries, you don’t need a full-on immersion in idleness like the bears. But you’d benefit from a shorter stint, akin to the hummingbird’s period of dormancy.

The next 28 days will not be a favorable period to sit around passively wishing to be noticed. Nor will it be a good time to wait to be rescued or to trust in others to instigate desirable actions. On the other hand, it will be an excellent phase to be an initiator: to decide what needs to be done, to state your intentions concisely, and to carry out your master plan with alacrity and efficiency. To help ensure your success during the next 28 days, make this declaration each morning before breakfast: “I don’t want to observe the show. I want to be the show.”

TAURUS Apr20–May20 “Dear Dr. Brezsny: A psychic predicted that sometime this year I will fall in love with a convenience store clerk who’s secretly a down-on-his-luck prince of a small African country. She said that he and I have a unique destiny. Together we will break the world’s record for dancing without getting bitten in a pit of cobras while drunk on absinthe on our honeymoon. But there’s a problem. I didn’t have time to ask the psychic how I’ll meet my soulmate, and I can’t afford to pay $250 for another reading. Can you help? - Mopey Taurus.” Dear Mopey: The psychic lied. Neither she nor anyone else can see what the future will bring you. Why? Because what happens will be largely determined by your own actions.

I suggest you celebrate this fact. It’s the perfect time to do so: July is Feed Your Willpower Month.

GEMINI May21–June20 Of all the concert pianos in the world, 80 percent of them are made by Steinway. A former president of the company once remarked that in each piano, “243 taut strings exert a pull of 40,000 pounds on an iron frame.” He said it was “proof that out of great tension may come great harmony.” That will be a potential talent of yours in the coming weeks, Gemini. Like a Steinway piano, you will have the power to turn tension into beauty. But will you actually accomplish this noble goal, or will your efforts be less melodious? It all depends on how much poised self-discipline you summon.

CANCER Jun21–Jul22 Once upon a time, weren’t you the master builder who never finished building your castle? Weren’t you the exile who wandered aimlessly while fantasizing about the perfect sanctuary of the past or the sweet safety zone of the future? Didn’t you perversely nurture the ache that arose from your sense of not feeling at home in the world? I hope that by now you have renounced all of those kinky inclinations. If you haven’t, now would be an excellent time to do so. How might you reinvest the mojo that will be liberated by the demise of those bad habits?

In accordance with the astrological omens, I have selected three aphorisms by poet James Richardson to guide you. Aphorism #1: “The worst helplessness is forgetting there is help.” My commentary: You have the power to avoid that fate. Start by identifying the sources of healing and assistance that are available to you. Aphorism #2: “You do not have to be a fire to keep one burning.”

My commentary: Generate all the heat and light you can, yes, but don’t torch yourself. Aphorism #3: “Patience is not very different from courage. It just takes longer.” My commentary: But it may not take a whole lot longer.

You may not know this, but I am the founder and CEO of Proud To Be Humble, an acclaimed organization devoted to minimizing vanity. It is my sworn duty to protest any ego that exceeds the acceptable limits as defined by the Geneva Convention on Narcissism. However, I now find myself conflicted. Because of the lyrical beauty and big-hearted charisma that are currently emanating from your ego, I am unable, in good conscience, to ask you to tone yourself down. In fact, I hereby grant you a license to expand your self-love to unprecedented proportions.

You may also feel free to unleash a series of lovely brags.

SCORPIO Oct23–Nov21 “In life, as in bicycling, pedal when you have to, coast when you can.” So says author James Lough, and now I’m passing on his advice to you—just in time for your transition from the heavy-pedaling season to the coasting-is-fun phase. I suspect that at this juncture in your life story you may be a bit addicted to the heavy pedaling. You could be so accustomed to the intensity that you’re inclined to be suspicious of an opportunity to enjoy ease and grace. Don’t be like that. Accept the gift with innocent gratitude.

SAGITTARIUS Nov22–Dec21 “When a jet flies low overhead, every glass in the cupboard sings,” writes aphorist James Richardson.

“Feelings are like that: choral, not single; mixed, never pure.” That’s always true, but it will be intensely true for you in the coming weeks. I hope you can find a way to tolerate, even thrive on, the flood of ambiguous complexity. I hope you won’t chicken out and try to pretend that your feelings are one-dimensional and easily understandable. In my opinion, you are ripe to receive rich lessons in the beauty and power of mysterious emotions.

CAPRICORN Dec22–Jan19 Pop artist Andy Warhol said that in the future, everyone would be famous for 15 minutes. His idea had a resonance with the phrase “nine days’ wonder,” which as far back as Elizabethan times referred to a person or event that captured the public’s fascination for a while.

You Capricorns are entering a phase when you’re far more likely than usual to bask in the spotlight. Between now and September 2017, I bet you’ll garner at least a short burst of glory, acclaim, or stardom—perhaps much more. Are you ready for your close-up? Have you prepped for the influx of attention that may be coming your way?

AQUARIUS Jan20–Feb18 One of my readers, Jay O’Dell, told me this story: “After my cancer surgery, a nurse said to me, ‘You may as well try magical thinking. Regular thinking hasn’t helped.’

I said to the nurse, ‘Well, why the hell not?’ That was seven years ago.” In bringing O’Dell’s testimony to your attention, I don’t mean to suggest you will have any health problems that warrant a strong dose of magical thinking. Not at all. But you may get wrapped up in a psychological twist or a spiritual riddle that would benefit from magical thinking. And what exactly is magical thinking? Here’s one definition: The stories that unfold in your imagination have important effects on what actually happens to you.

PISCES Feb19–Mar20 Let’s talk about X-factors and wild cards and strange attractors. By their very nature, they are unpredictable and ephemeral, even when they offer benevolent breakthroughs. So you may not even notice their arrival if you’re entranced by your expectations and stuck in your habitual ways. But here’s the good news, Pisces: Right now you are not unduly entranced by your expectations or stuck in your habits. Odds are high that you will spy the sweet twists of fate—the X-factors and wild cards and strange attractors—as they float into view. You will pounce on them and put them to work while they’re still fresh. And then they will help you hike your ratings or get the funding you need or animate the kind of love that heals.

Homework: For one week, pretend to already be something you’re on your way to becoming. Report results to truthrooster@gmail.com.

SODA DROP Despite soda’s addictive qualities and marketing campaigns, soft drink consumption may be dropping in the U.S.

Fizzing Out New report shows that consumers are wising up to the dangers of soda BY ANDREW STEINGRUBE behavioral corner and consume less of it.

According to a new report published in Beverage Digest, overall U.S. sales of carbonated soft drinks dropped 1.2 percent in 2015. Not only is this the 11th consecutive year that sales have fallen, the report also states that per capita soft-drink consumption in the U.S. is at its lowest level in 30 years.

The three “sultans of soda” (PepsiCo., Coke, and Dr. Pepper Snapple) all reported falling demand in 2015 as well, with the steepest drop being PepsiCo.’s 3.1 percent decline.

That nationwide soft drink consumption has been consistently in decline over the last decade, even though Coke and Pepsi alone spent

more than a combined $5 billion per year in advertising from 20122014, is encouraging for multiple reasons. For one, drinking less soda, or even quitting the habit entirely, can be extremely challenging. The cocktail of chemicals in soda—high sugar often paired with stimulating caffeine—lights up the pleasure and reward centers of the brain in a similar way to drugs like cocaine and alcohol, creating very real positive emotions that carry with them the potential for a biochemical addiction.

Given how difficult foregoing the fizz can be, it’s a valid effort to make, as many studies have linked soft drink consumption directly to poor health.

The recent explosion of diabetes in

oda has been interwoven into American culture since it first became popular in the 19th century. A cheeseburger and fries just aren’t the same without a fizzy beverage to wash them down. Half the fun of a pizza parlor is the beckoning call of the unlimited soda fountain, and how is one supposed to enjoy salty, buttered movie theater popcorn without a cool, sweet, refreshing soft drink to reset the palate?

But while we’ve known for many years about soda’s sordid reputation for all things unhealthy, new research shows that Americans are collectively beginning to turn that tough

the U.S., particularly the lifestyleinduced Type 2 variety, has long been at least partially blamed by doctors and researchers on too much soda consumption. Studies have also found links between the sugary substance and cardiovascular disease and cancer, as well as less serious conditions like tooth decay and heartburn.

Perhaps most interesting of all is the obvious alternative that many are staying away from: diet soda. Once thought of as a viable, healthier and sugar-free alternative to standard soft drinks, diet soda consumption is declining even more rapidly than non-diet. In the Beverage Digest report, data showed that demand for the once ubiquitous Diet Coke and Diet Pepsi both fell almost 6 percent in 2015, about twice as much as regular Pepsi, and six times as much as regular Coke.

This dwindling diet demand is in part spurred by consumers’ lack of trust in the safety of commonly used artificial sweeteners like aspartame (aka NutraSweet/Equal) and sucralose (aka Splenda). Results from studies on the health effects of these substances can vary, and conclusions are often muddled due to a wide range of unrealistic doses and that many studies are conducted on rats or mice, and not humans. The FDA considers both to be safe alternatives to sugar, but they have fallen out of favor with many consumers. Even if they are safe, diet soda has another nasty trick up its sleeve: the tongue tastes sweetness, which makes the body think sugar is on the way. In response, the pancreas releases insulin, but because diet sodas don’t contain any real sugar, all this insulin does is further lower blood sugar levels, setting up an even greater appetite and desire for sugar, and possibly contributing to overeating.

So now that many Americans have taken a hard stance against soft drinks and curbed their consumption, where do they turn? Some opt for fruit juice, and many are choosing vitamin waters or waters flavored with exotic ingredients like coconut instead. And although these choices can contain sugar, too, they often contain less of it and provide more nutrients than traditional sodas.

NEWS SWEET SEATS City council race takes shape as candidates vie for at least two openings

BY GEORGIA JOHNSON

With the season of glossy fliers and knocking on doors approaching quickly, five Santa Cruz City Council candidates have announced their intentions to run.

Though they are campaigning on similar issues, like the city wide housing crisis and homelessness, they each bring unique perspectives and solutions to the larger discussions.

Mayor Cynthia Mathews will seek another term, and current Councilmember Micah Posner has yet to decide. Councilmember Pamela Comstock will not run, and Councilmember Don Lane is getting temporarily termed out after eight years, leaving at least two open seats. The candidacy nomination period begins July 18 and runs through Aug. 12, and the general election is Nov. 8.

County launches efforts to end illegal fireworks on the Fourth of July BY MATTHEW RENDA

t begins in May, sporadic at first.

It builds steadily to a crescendo in early July, before leveling off and holding steady until August peters into September.

The whistle and bang. The crackle and pop. The occasional jarring boom.

“Fireworks are a big issue,” said Santa Cruz County Supervisor Zach Friend at a recent community meeting in Rio Del Mar. “It’s not just about one night, either. It’s every night throughout the entire summer.

It seems like it wakes up my 1-yearold every night.”

Fireworks persist throughout summer evenings in Santa Cruz despite a strict ban throughout most of the county.

Increasingly, Friend and other officials are fielding a plethora of complaints from residents who say the intermittent blasts are traumatizing their pets, causing veterans issues related to Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) or simply impinging on the peace and quiet of otherwise calm summer nights.

During a June meeting at the Rio Sands Hotel in Aptos with sheriff and fire officials, Friend unveiled

a new set of measures aimed at curtailing the fireworks that amateur pyro-technicians launch into the sky—especially on the Fourth of July at the beach.

Friend says that one step toward curbing illegal fireworks is educating locals about the law. The county has been purchasing ads in the counties of Santa Clara, Monterey and San Benito, as well as in the Central Valley.

Many of the tourists who come to Santa Cruz in the summer to vacation aren’t aware that fireworks are illegal around the county (except in >14 Watsonville, where “safe and

A cancer survivor and photographer, Dru Glover founded Santa Cruz nonprofit Project Pollinate to promote environmental sustainability for the future by hosting educational events around Santa Cruz.

“The next generation is what we should be focusing on,” Glover says. “Our generation and the generation before us are important, but our future leaders of the community are who we need to be focusing our time and energy into.”

Glover wants to make housing more affordable by building more units, as well as improving alternate and accessible forms of public transportation—whether that means maintaining Metro routes or making it easier to cycle around town.

He also wants to create more community involvement in local politics. Glover insists, though, that Santa Cruz doesn't have any singular issues.

“All of the issues are combined, and we need to take a really holistic approach to addressing [them], educating the community, getting people involved, and brainstorming solutions,” Glover says.

sane” fireworks are sold from July 1 through July 4, with proceeds going to community nonprofits).

County workers are also sending letters to vacation rental owners to let them know they are liable for infractions of the fireworks ordinance, while other officials work with parents through the schools.

The sheriff’s office is also beefing up enforcement, mobilizing additional deputies in the days leading up to the Fourth of July.

There will be 13 deputies assigned to patrol the beach area during the day on July 4, and 26 during the night, as well as increased signage and triple fines for setting off fireworks on the Fourth that could run as high as $1,500.

But after hearing about the county redoubling its outreach and patrol efforts, some people at the meeting suggested that the police presence along the beach already goes too far.

One woman said she’s grown tired of seeing “the Fourth of July turned into a police state.”

“This is America, and Fourth of July means fireworks,” resident Liz Karzag said. “You are not going to stop it.”

The county’s annual fifth-of-July beach cleanup crew may be slimmer than in past years, and that has begun to worry leaders from Save Our Shores, Santa Cruz’s marine conservation nonprofit. With Independence Day falling on a Monday, it will be the first time in three years that the day-after cleanup doesn’t fall on the weekend.

Ryan Kallabis, communications manager for Save Our Shores (SOS), is trying to get the word out

doubts about anti-fireworks enforcement. They say that cutting off beach access for the many drunken enthusiasts blasting them off only sends them into residential areas. “I don’t condone fireworks all year round,” said Mary Dixon, a resident of the area. “But you scare these people off the beach and they go inland and do damage to our neighborhoods.”

Dixon also added that there is more of a chance of wildland fires the farther inland people go—a worry echoed by Mike Conrad, fire chief of the Aptos/La Selva district.

“The biggest concern is Larkin Valley and Day Valley, because there is a potential to create a significant fire event,” Conrad said at the meeting.

“We don’t want to get it pushed back to the mountain side of Highway 1.”

Sheriff Jim Hart conceded that barricading the beaches and performing rigorous searching of bags has produced the unintended consequence of driving more fireworks usage into the neighborhoods around the beach.

“In the past, we routinely had stabbings and shootings on the beach,” Hart said. “So we worked on funneling foot traffic so we could look into backpacks, but it has gotten fireworks off the beach and

about the cleanup, as well as the volunteer efforts on the Fourth to hand out trash bags along the coast and tell beachgoers about stewardship.

With fewer volunteers expected this year, prevention will be more important, and Kallabis is launching a social media campaign to remind folks that “no one likes a dirty beach.”

The first of the group’s five tips this year is to leave Styrofoam at home. Vacationers often bring large polystyrene coolers to the beach, filled with food and drink for the holiday. Then when people

into the neighborhoods.”

Hart mentioned the robust patrols planned for this year’s event will concentrate on neighborhoods in proximity to beaches, and that the county will ease barricade and search operations at county beaches.

But State Parks will maintain barricades on state beaches like Seabright State Beach and Seacliff State Beach.

In the city of Santa Cruz, the city council passed its annual safety enhancement zone, which triples fines for a dozen violations—including fireworks, open-container and noise violations—and extended the zone from the beach area to the entire city for the holiday weekend.

At the county meeting, many locals attested to enjoying the amateur fireworks display, arguing that the county should adopt a formal policy of making fireworks legal on the Fourth and vigorously enforce infractions during other parts of the summer, when residents are less prepared for sudden explosions.

Friend balked at the idea, saying nobody would “really want the county to be liable for an injury to any kid for allowing this type of permissive activity.”

In response, resident Monica McGuire suggested that >18

head back, sometimes they realize that the beach’s trash cans are all full. They end up leaving their garbage in the coolers on the beach, and the tourists may think they’re doing everyone a favor, Kallabis says, by putting it all in one place.

“But there are waves. There are birds. There’s wind. And these things get torn apart,” he says. “You can imagine dozens of families bringing these things. The whole beach becomes a Styrofoam mess.”

The second tip is to pack food and drinks in reusable containers

worth taking back home. Beach lovers should also bring party equipment in reusable bags, Kallabis recommends. The fourth tip is not to leave firework shells, tents, barbecues, coolers or chairs behind. Lastly, Kallabis says vacationers should not burn trash or put it in a fire pit because shards can get carried out to sea.

This year, SOS is shooting for a goal of 300 volunteers. Last year’s cleanup had 182. The nonprofit’s all-time high was around 600 volunteers for an Earth Day cleanup. JACOB PIERCE

J.M. BROWN J.M. Brown, a public relations representative, says his reasons for running for city council align with his background in journalism: he has a desire to serve the public.

“I got into journalism to ensure accountability in our community, be a voice to the underrepresented, and to shine light on social problems,” says Brown, a former Santa Cruz Sentinel reporter. “When I decided to leave that profession, I realized that those are the same attributes that someone should want in a city councilmember: someone who is going to ask good questions, be an independent thinker, and have the best interests of the public in mind.”

Brown wants to focus on creating and maintaining affordable housing, advocacy

for the “highest and best” use of the San Lorenzo River, public safety, and mental health.

Brown has so far garnered the most impressive list of endorsements, including Assemblymember Mark Stone, County Supervisor Ryan Coonerty and former mayor Hilary Bryant, also a campaign advisor to Brown. Brown is serving as a City of Santa Cruz Parks and Recreation Commission member and a member of the Santa Cruz County Housing Advisory Commission.

of what it takes to build a healthy future,” says Watkins, who is the daughter of county schools superintendent Michael Watkins.

Martine Watkins, who grew up in Santa Cruz County before pursuing legal studies at UCSC, wants to find solutions to the housing crisis.

“If we don’t think about these issues, I don’t know that our kids will be able to live here,” Watkins says. “We have to be mindful about what policies today have on those who are here to inherit the world and our community tomorrow.”

Though he has no political experience, Nathanael Kennedy wants to advocate for more public restrooms downtown, more homeless shelters and bicycle cops.

“The number one thing I am trying to accomplish is simply getting the police some tandem bicycles, because that way two police arrive at the same time,” Kennedy said. “It’s important that when they are on bikes they can have a passenger.”

As a self-employed artist, Kennedy has made and given out more than 9,080 origami cranes this year, he says.

He’s been arrested a handful times in the past 15 years, and was convicted in a 2008 misdemeanor weapon exhibition charge—a detail he’s not thrilled to have re-hashed in the media. In 2002, Kennedy was arrested for vandalism misdemeanor charges related to sidewalk chalking. If elected, he hopes to have spaces designated for chalking downtown.

STEVE SCHNAAR Steve Schnaar, the latest candidate to jump into the race, is the founder and director of the Santa Cruz Fruit Tree project, and a volunteer mechanic for the Bike Church.

He is passionate about preserving the Beach Flats Community Garden, environmental sustainability, solutions to homelessness, and affordable housing.

“Like Bernie Sanders, I’m someone with a broad vision of economic and environmental justice, and I have a very long track record of fighting for these ideals,” Schnaar tells GT via email.

He has several proposals for more affordable housing, including rent control, making it easier for homeowners to build back units and requiring the inclusion of affordable housing units in all new developments.

NEWS BOOM TOWN <14 simply erecting signs telling people their activities are at their own risk might solve the problem, but county officials say that would still create a legal and safety nightmare.

Additionally, Katherine O’Dea, executive director of Save Our Shores, says that while the beach is indeed more fire-safe than inland areas, guerilla fireworks and debris can wreak havoc on the marine ecosystem. And unexploded rockets pose a safety threat to those who volunteer to clean up garbage on the morning after the holiday.

“It’s a polarizing issue,” Hart says.

“The vast majority of people don’t want fireworks in their neighborhood.

But some people standing on the bluff over the ocean want to see a great show on a national holiday. We have to work with that group as well.”

Friend has suggested hosting a professional fireworks show as a possible solution. In recent years, both city and county workers have suggested that might alleviate some of the demand from people who want to see things blow up. Friend says the major hurdle is cost, and tells GT that running a professional show would take about the same number of officers as the county already has on patrol for the holiday—along with members of the fire department, insurance and related costs.

“How could we justify taking a sheriff’s deputy off the street to put on a fireworks show?” Friend says.

The county has entered into discussions about partnering with local businesses and sponsors to kick in the necessary dollars to make such a show a reality. But considering the expense, those talks are extremely preliminary.

The city has looked at hosting a professional fireworks display down by the Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk.

But after receiving a tepid response from Santa Cruz Seaside Company, coupled with fears about how an enormous crowd would snarl traffic and make it nearly impossible for first responders to react to an emergency, the city abandoned those plans, says Scott Collins, assistant to the city manager.

Women Winemakers Crushing stereotypes in the wine industry

women have had on the wine business is in sales and marketing.

“And that’s because many women have started their own brokerages, having been turned down by the large, male-dominated firms,” he says. Marsh works for Alexia Moore, who started her company in the ’70s.

He says it’s difficult for women to get into wine distribution “because of the culture of old-school men.”

Wine researcher and University of Santa Clara professor of psychology Lucia Gilbert’s 2014 case study of top California wineries indicated 14.7 percent female winemakers in 2014, versus 10 percent in 1999.

“That’s not much of an increase in 15 years,” she says.

In her 2015 study for American Association of Wine Economists (AAWE), Gilbert found that, contrary to the widely touted myth that women winemakers in California are shattering the glass ceiling in an industry historically dominated by men, in fact only 9.8 percent of California wineries have a woman as their lead winemaker. In a similar study of winemaking roles among Australia’s wine producers

for the AAWE, Jeremy Galbreath reported in 2014 that 9 percent of wineries employed women in the top winemaking role.

Because there are fewer women winemakers, Gilbert’s study noted, their careers experience particular challenges. Those who are successful are not only highly motivated, but also have to deal successfully with challenge.

Marsh says he finds a female winemaker is rarely an important factor in sales.

“The winery itself, how its grapes are grown, its program—organic or biodynamic—those things I’ll mention,” he says. “If I’m talking with a true wine geek, or if I encounter a woman buyer, I might mention that the winemaker is a woman.”

Probably the single biggest impact a woman has made in local winemaking, according to Marsh, is at Bargetto Winery. So that’s where I began my attempt to let local women winemakers tell their stories, and get some other perspectives on women in the business, as well.

en in the vineyards, muscles gleaming in the hot sun. Men hauling barrels in the cellars.

Men making wine. The age-old romance of winemaking was founded on the image of the charismatic man—often the one whose name is on the label. Is any of this changing, I wondered, as I foraged for stats and anecdotes about women winemakers in the 21st century?

Celebrated British wine writer Jancis Robinson offered me this wry comment on the increase of women in the world of wine: “Women are a much more powerful force in the wine business than they were when I started 40 years ago. Most of the men I meet in the wine business admit that their female partners are better tasters than they are. But, there is still a bit of a glass ceiling for women as far as important positions in bigger companies are concerned.”

Robert Marsh, an expert in the domain of Central Coast wine sales, went further. The ceiling for women in the business isn’t glass, he says, “it’s cement.”

Aptos native Olivia Teutschel, who has been Bargetto’s winemaker of record for the past two years, tells me she has always loved farming and being outdoors. At Cal Poly, Teutschel thought she would try wine marketing, but found her life’s work when she took a winemaking class. “It was very hands-on. We learned with actual equipment, the nitty-gritty stuff. I loved it!” When it came time to do an internship, Teutschel went to Edna Valley and applied for a cellar job. “It was my first and only interview,” she says. “I was told, firmly, that it would be ‘hard work.’ That evening, I sent back an email and said I could do hard work. I got the internship. But then I really had to prove myself. Get there early and stay late.”

Graduating in 2009, she interned at Sebastiani Vineyards in Sonoma, in the lab of a very big, old company.

Then in New Zealand, she worked at Vavasour Winery to get more experience. Then she met Peter Bargetto of Soquel Vineyards on a winemaking tour right up the street from her aunt and uncle’s house. “He put me to work, at first on weekends at Soquel Vineyards and then at Bargetto during weekdays,” she says.

Her current favorite house wines include Bargetto Winery’s Nelson Vineyards Syrah. “This vineyard is very consistent, even in rough years.

The other thing I’m most excited about is our Regan Reserve Chardonnay.”

Why are you good at this?

OLIVIA TEUTSCHEL: Being so detailoriented, I think. Being a detective, paying attention—in fact, that might be a gender item. It’s served me well here. I ask questions. I enjoy being really organized. Organized but flexible. There are a lot of moving pieces in winemaking. The mystery—the unknown—is part of the excitement. But I also like all the nittygritty things. Right now, Bargetto is surfing the changing tides. My job as winemaker was made easier by the fact that I was here as an assistant for many years first. And it’s getting easier. With owner-operated wineries you have to do all the work. I do it all— everything but driving the truck filled with grapes down those winding roads.

Is being female an extra hurdle?

I’ve only been the official winemaker for two years. When I first started as winemaker, there were some awkward moments. There was a seniority thing—a lot of people have been here for a long time, and suddenly I was their boss. But it wasn’t about my being female. bargetto.com

NICOLE WALSH: I began Ser because of Alex Krause, my old friend and winemaking colleague at Birichino. He gave me the idea.

After the economic collapse, we scaled down to 15,000 cases at BD. The world had no money, I felt negative and I was pregnant with our second child. It was a soulsearching year. Krause said to me, “You’re a winemaker. Make wine!”

I talked to Randall, he said OK. I bought a few tons of grapes—you have to get good grapes.

<23 Santa Cruz’s WOMEN WINEMAKERS the wines themselves—a delicacy, an elegance. Using the same grapes, my wines were different than those made by men. That might be described as feminine. A certain quality. I don’t know what it is, but it’s definitely there. I think wine made by a woman is most appealing to other women. It’s still surprising that there are so few of us. A big two-day tasting in Healdsburg last month opened my eyes. It was such a boy’s club. I think it is empowering for other women to see a woman making wine in a male-dominated field. Women customers, when they taste the wine and I tell them I am the winemaker, their eyes light up, there is interest, more questions asked.

JOHN LOCKE Wine Buyer, Soif Are women treated differently in the wine world?

JOHN LOCKE: I imagine women winemakers are given a shorter leash than men. Women probably have to be better than men to keep their jobs, or at least advance through the ranks. I am not prepared to say that women are dispositionally more likely to be superior to men in the realm of winemaking, though the ones who do make it to the top probably deserve to be there.

Are they considered a rarity?

From my own perspective, I do not think women winemakers are exotic or rarities anymore. That being said, one does hear distributor reps and journalists note with regularity that a particular wine is made by a woman, suggesting that this is noteworthy and might inform one’s opinion of the wine or the house from which it comes. Rarely do people talk about Cathy Corison’s Napa Cabernet without noting that there is a feminine quality to it. So yes, certainly many people believe this could help move boxes. In the case of Cathy Corison, her reputation is beyond reproach, so in my opinion, very few professionals purchase

the wine based on her gender, only her considerable chops. I would be quite frankly very surprised if the wine industry is so extraordinarily progressive that it has managed to be nearly unique in transforming from a formerly male-dominated business into one based solely on merit. I would like to think it is a meritocracy, but I would be surprised.

LESLIE FELLOWS Owner, Uruguay’s Artesana Winery Are women more prevalent in South American winemaking?

LESLIE FELLOWS: Yes. Our female winemakers are in charge of Uruguay operations, vineyards, production, tourism, sales and export preparation. In Uruguay, there are many women winemakers and owners, partly because so many are family operations.

Do you see any signs that women are making an impact elsewhere in a traditionally male profession?

There are more and more women winemakers making a name for themselves in the U.S.; however, I believe we still have a long way to go with distribution. The industry is dominated by huge companies like Southern, Republic, and Young's.

There has been a lot of consolidation in recent years—fewer and fewer small-to-mid-size distributors. This is unfortunate, as big distribution— the “big boys”—generally are less interested in working with small producers. And men are making the choices of what we drink!

Do women bring some special—or at least different—approaches to wine, both crafting and marketing?

Yes, I think absolutely. Our winemakers make a big bold Tannat wine, though they seem to have a little more elegance than other Tannats I’ve tried. Regarding marketing, it’s more difficult to say.

I think women have to work harder in general in this industry to be recognized. It’s a very competitive business and you have to develop a thick skin. artesanawinery.com

JANE DUNKLEY Associate Winemaker, Bonny Doon Vineyard figure out the wines. It’s fantastic to be near his vision.

How did you get into winemaking?

Randall Grahm has always had a posse of strong women around him, so clearly he thinks women are up to the task. I do tend to use my intuition more, and I try to describe wines in a visual rather than biochemical fashion. But I also do the hard work like a man. I was a tomboy growing up. You’ve gotta be one of the boys.

JANE DUNKLEY: In Australia, there are a lot of women in the industry, but not a lot at the top. It’s still a bit of a rarity.

Why Bonny Doon Vineyard?

Santa Cruz fit me—I had found my people! [Grahm] is the architect, I’m the engineer. Day to day I get to

How do you succeed in this legendary facility?

I’m still young enough [at 30] to push myself. I’ve gotten where I am by always pushing myself. My mother is a very strong woman.

She was a great model. In fact, she encouraged me to come here.

Is it glamorous?

In 2014, I went to vineyards more, but now I'm doing a lot of spreadsheets. Mostly the grapes come to me … It’s about spreadsheets, OSHA compliance, safety and health. And Randall doesn’t sleep, so when I wake up at 6 a.m., I’m already behind schedule.

What’s it like working as a woman winemaker at Bonny Doon?

Jane Dunkley has spent the past year translating the vision of Randall Grahm into distinctive results. Growing up on a “big cattle farm” in West Australia, she worked grape harvests as a teenager before taking a biochemistry degree. “In the end the degree wasn’t that big a deal. People need to see that you can do the work,” she says. “I did custom winemaking at many wineries. It’s not glamorous, but you got to work with many wines.

I was trying to soak up as much as possible.”

In 2014, Dunkley heard about the assistant winemaker gig at Bonny Doon, where Nicole Walsh was vineyard manager and Randall Grahm had just inaugurated his San Juan Bautista estate property.

Dunkley became an instant fan, both of the winery founder and the town.

Business Profile:

Pottery Planet in the biz, first by selling pottery in Sweden, then by working directly with suppliers while living in Vietnam. Since acquiring Pottery Planet in 2009, he and his team have amassed an exquisite collection of decor and gifts made from ceramics and other natural materials from all over the world.

One easy way to add instant nirvana to a space is to add a plant.

It may seem like a small change, but in addition to being aesthetically pleasing, plants humidify and purify the air, and have even been shown to improve focus and speed recovery times. Going one step further, housing your new philodendron or peace lily in a beautiful ceramic pot, like those found at local pottery wonderhouse Pottery Planet, transforms a houseplant into a work of art.

If you need help deciding which piece is right for your home and your new photosynthesizing roommate, their knowledgeable staff is only too happy to point you in the right direction. “We’re very proud of the variety of products that we offer and the quality of our customer service,” says Frank.

“Often people come in who think they want one thing and walk out with something else—we just want them to be happy.”

Pottery Planet’s 13,000 square-foot showroom on Soquel Avenue in Santa Cruz brims with gorgeous handmade earthenware in a rainbow of colors. Owner Johan Frank has honed his eye for quality ceramics over more than twenty years

If the idea of caring for a living organism causes you more stress than you think it might relieve, try bringing flowing water into your home instead. You’ll receive similar benefits—with the added bonus of the serene sound of flowing water.

At Pottery Planet, they can turn any

item—a pot, fixture, or interesting rock—into a custom-made fountain.

Examples of their handiwork are throughout the store, filling the air with the sounds of a bubbling woodland creek.

Things weren’t so serene when Frank bought the business, “Just as we took over, we entered a very bad economic downturn. Money was tight for a lot of people and not a lot of money was spent in the garden,” Frank says. Luckily, their relationship with Santa Cruz Community Credit Union allowed them to plan for the future in a way that they couldn’t with larger banks.

“We import a lot of goods, so we have a different way of working.

With a lot of big banks, if your business doesn’t tick off their specific boxes, they won’t work with you,” explains Frank. “Santa Cruz Community Credit Union has been great because they understand our vision and our financial needs. Survival mode is over: now it’s time to grow.”

A glitzy tale of crime, celebrity, and media in the Jazz Age, the show hit Broadway in 1975, with music and

lyrics by John Kander and Fred Ebb (who collaborated on Cabaret), and choreographed by Bob Fosse, who also co-wrote the book with Ebb. The parallels to Cabaret are notable: both shows are presented on a nightclub stage, with a visible orchestra

directed and choreographed by longtime CS stalwart Janie Scott.

She locates the orchestra—a 13-piece jazz combo led with plenty of verve

by Musical Director and keyboardist Mazera Cox-Goulter—in a balcony across the back of the stage, overlooking the action. A central staircase descending to centerstage, and a couple of side balconies and stairwells, complete Patrick Klein’s clean, functional set, on which the story plays out, in all its glamour and tart cynicism.

The show begins cleverly, with silent movie-style title cards on a white screen, with the usual requests to turn off our cell phones, etc. The screen falls away for the dynamic opening number, “All That Jazz,” featuring the entire company, led by Jessica Whittemore in the central role of Velma Kelly.

Whittemore is the undisputed gemstone of this production, with her great voice, fearless dancing (especially in the one-woman duet, “I Can’t Do It Alone”), and her everinsouciant attitude.

The opening number ends with a murder, when blonde chorine, Roxie Hart, shoots her boyfriend for two-timing her. Co-protagonist Roxie is played by Danielle Williams, who manages the character's lightning shifts between tough cookie and innocent Kewpie Doll with brisk, comic dexterity. Roxie also has a loyal schlub of a husband who adores her, good-hearted, downtrodden auto mechanic, Amos. Dave Leon plays Amos with a mixture of hopeful pluck and resignation that wins the audience's hearts over the course of the show.

Roxie almost gets Amos to take the murder rap for her, until he realizes she was cheating on him.

The main story kicks in when Roxie goes to jail, joining Velma and her sextet of “merry murderesses”

awaiting trial. (Their number, “Cell Block Tango”—better known by its recurring refrain, “He Had It Coming”—captures the show’s wry asperity.) The cell block is presided over by matron “Mama” Morton, played with panache by Danny Dwaine Wells II. The ironic duet, “Class,” that Mama sings with Velma is a highlight of the show.

In jail, Roxie falls under the wing of slick lawyer Billy Flynn, (a chipper performance from David Jackson), who famously gets his sexy (and guilty) clients acquitted by drumming up sympathy in the celebrity-obsessed tabloids, and employing “Razzle Dazzle” in the courtroom. Roxie’s rising media fame begins to eclipse Velma’s, and while the women are initially antagonistic, they establish their sisterhood in time for the big finale.

C. Reynolds is a crowd-pleaser as “sob sister” gossip columnist Mary Sunshine, although lyrics delivered in a startling operatic soprano are sometimes hard to decipher.

And Nick Rodrigues is polished, exuberant fun as the versatile emcee, who also takes an occasional role in the story.

As for those opening night glitches, the house lights kept going up in the middle of the show, and while this problem was resolved in the second act, a spotlight was late coming on at a climactic moment.

And Billy’s pinstripe suit pants suffered a wardrobe malfunction when he made his first entrance from behind a cloud of ostrichfeather fans. But the great thing about live theatre is that all these minor problems can be solved as the show goes on.

Info: The Cabrillo Stage production of ‘Chicago’ plays through July 10 at the Crocker Theater, Cabrillo College. For information, call 479-6429, or visit cabrillostage.com.

JULY FEATURES Santa Cruz Westside Various locations

Artisans Gallery – D. Hooker 1368 Pacific Ave, 6-8

It’s as if the Westside was designed for First Friday. Artists in a range of styles and mediums are on exhibit at venues all around the neighborhood. And speaking of “all around the neighborhood,” as you walk, bike, skip or otherwise traverse the Westside on this warm summer First Friday you are certain to run into some delicious wine tasting, live music, scrumptious snacks and of course your neighborhood friends.

720 Front St. 12-6

Color is the observation of reflected light. For almost as long as artists have attempted to reflect the world, there has been the challenge of using color to portray light. Santa Cruz County Bank offers an illuminating exhibit of artists’ mastery in the realm of color and light, extending to each of their branch locations.

Stripe Men – Kit Eastman

117 Walnut Ave. 5-9

There is a thoughtful and evasive quality to the work of Kit Eastman, on display this month at Stripe Men. Her imagery, subjects and media all connect, and are in relationship to one another, yet a relationship that is mysterious and ambiguous. Referential to histories, shared and personal, Eastman’s prints evoke a dream state; a distant memory that is vivid and unfamiliar.

FIRST FRIDAY FOCUS Thank you to the talented photographers that cast their lens on our First Friday event for the last six months. Our First Friday Focus launch was a huge success baring some beautiful captures.

We look forward to sharing the work of more photographers and more First Friday moments when First Friday Focus returns in September.

n their 20 years of playing music together, the Bills have celebrated joys and successes, taken breaks, and weathered challenges. Like a family that’s grown stronger with time, they’re tighter than ever, musically and otherwise.

“What happens is that you sort of breathe like a single musician with 10 arms and 10 hands,” says guitarist and vocalist Chris Frye. “You get so used to working together and you have a history of musical ideas and inside musical jokes. You’ve shared the ups and downs that really create a bond in a relationship.”

Hailing from Canada’s West Coast, the Bills are global ambassadors for Canadian folk and roots music—a thriving scene that boasts large festivals in several cities across the country. Perhaps somewhat underappreciated in the States, the Canadian music scene birthed numerous folk-rock icons, including Joni Mitchell, Neil Young, Leonard Cohen, k.d. lang and the Band.

The Bills—comprised of Frye, Marc Atkinson on mandolin, guitar and vocals, Richard Moody on violin, viola and vocals, Adrian Dolan on fiddle, piano, accordion and vocals, and Scott

White on upright bass and vocals— enrich Canada’s folk landscape with their diverse musical backgrounds in orchestras, jazz ensembles, rock bands, and early roots music.

“We feel like we follow as much in that folk and rock tradition as anything,” says Frye, “But there’s also a much more traditional style that we have strong roots in as well. We try to bring it all together and put it all through a West Coast Canadian lens, and it comes out being the Bills.”

Playing what they describe as a “kitchen-jam exploration of traditional and modern styles,”

Playing eco-conscious Canadian folk roots music is what the Bills do best BY CAT JOHNSON

the Bills embrace the simple joy of acoustic instruments. It’s a casual setting, and they’ll bring in whoever happens to be around to join the jam.

“The thing about this roots music thing is that it’s very inclusive, and it’s meant to be played at an acoustic level.

We can make it happen right here, right now, around any table,” says Frye, “You put acoustic instruments in a shared human space, with no speakers, no monitors, no electronics, and you can just rock people and bring up so much energy and emotion.”

Taking this open approach to making music, the Bills have collaboratively composed five albums going back to their 2000 debut, The Bill Hilly Band. The band’s latest, Trail of Tales, was recorded in a farmhouse on Mayne Island, off the coast of British Columbia, where the band stayed for over two weeks. Dolan produced the record and gave it a warm, classic sound by using vintage microphones and old-school isolation techniques, including putting the band members on different floors of the farmhouse.

The experience was, as Frye puts it, “like a big old Bills campout.”

“We were all together, all the time, for 17 or 18 days. It was great,” says Frye. “You couldn’t escape each other, but you didn't really want to.”

The result is a record rooted in rich harmonies, stellar musicianship, sunny days and the natural world—if you listen carefully, you can hear birds singing. The unofficial theme of Trail of Tales is the planet and humanity’s relationship with it. It’s full of songs about the complexity of the issues society faces, the beauty of the earth, simple pleasures, and cautionary tales.

From the funky “Jungle Doctor” to the feel-good “Happy Be,” it showcases a mature band putting their music where their consciousness is.

“It’s pretty hard to avoid those issues in this day and age,” Frye says. “As a group of human beings, we lean in that direction of concern for the earth—our ecosystems and our planet. We feel really excited to have tunes that really rock, but also speak to things that are important to us and our fans and our families.”

THURSDAY 6/30 ‘RANGE 15’ SCREENING A group of veterans wanted to make the opposite of what was expected of them, which would be a movie about the high price of war and the struggles of returning home. So they made something crass, fun, and chock-full of zombies. The premise? A group of vets wake up after a night of partying only to find that a zombie apocalypse has spread through the U.S. Funded entirely through a crowdfunding platform (because no one in Hollywood wanted to back the film), the story is a cheesy, zombie-filled good time without political agenda or motive. It’s why a group of dedicated locals made fliers, and rallied social media to bring the film to the Santa Cruz community. Celebrate veterans in the weirdest way possible with this one-night-only screening of Range 15.

LOCAL BAND

JOINT CHIEFS The Joint Chiefs have been bringing soulful funk to Santa Cruz’s music scene since 1989. James Brown, Jimi Hendrix and Jaco Pastorius are just a few of the band’s main influences, and any given set will include popular covers and a few of their own R&B originals.

For singer/guitarist Don Caruth and bassist Daniel Vee Lewis, music is a full-time gig; the two stay busy giving lessons and playing in multiple bands, with shows nearly every night of the week, including regular monthly restaurant gigs and an open jam session that they host at the Pocket.

JUNE 29-JULY 5, 2016 | GOODTIMES.SC | SANTACRUZ.COM

For Lewis, playing gigs every night never gets old: “I’ve had real jobs, I’ve worked 50-hour weeks, so I can compare the difference,” he says. “Any time it gets tough I’m like, ‘Wait, look what you do.’ I love it, and I’m very grateful.”

44

Caruth agrees. “I do it ’cause I love it, and I’m very blessed to make a living at it. But if musicians didn’t get paid anywhere, I’d still be doing it.”

Their advice to younger aspiring musicians?

“Practice and learn your craft before you just go out and start playing it in front of a bunch of people,” Caruth says. “When I was trying to get into clubs when I was young, if you couldn’t play, they wouldn’t let you in there! And these days—I don’t mean to put anybody down, but I see a lot of guys out, and they’re not ready to be out. So my advice is to practice, practice, practice.” KATIE SMALL The Joint Chiefs play at 9 p.m. on Friday, July 1 at the Crow’s Nest. $6.

MICHAELA ANNE

WEDNESDAY 6/29 COUNTRY-ROCK

MICHAELA ANNE A country rocker in the vein of Linda Ronstadt and early Emmylou Harris, Michaela Anne is an up-and-coming songwriter whose classic sound, smooth voice, and simple approach to storytelling have endeared her to fans and critics, alike. But don’t be fooled by the sweetness. A recent transplant from Brooklyn to Nashville, Anne increasingly taps into all the aspects of herself—sweet and otherwise. “[My] new record reflects the strength and ballsiness that I was trying to push myself toward with the songs,” she told Rolling Stone.

CAT JOHNSON

hottest new R&B singers out right now whose music brings to mind the smooth, feel-good R&B sound from the ’90s. But if he wanted, he could be a rapper. He’s got the flow—he spits verses every once in a while in his tunes—but more so, he’s got the swagger. In one Spin article, he told the interviewer that he “doesn’t need to sing,” because his presence on stage alone riles up a crowd. Damn! His mixtape Mood, released earlier this year, is what really put him on the map. It’s sweet—Jacquees isn’t a softy, and his songs can get raunchy, but it feels like it’s coming from a place of love. AARON CARNES

draws from world music, dub, jazz, rock, and found sounds to create something odd and lovely that morphs and grows on its own, without being restricted by genre, stylistic confines, or anything that has gone before. On Friday, the duo hits the Rio Theatre. CJ

Any Santa Cruzan worth their weight in the music scene knows the name Ribsy’s Nickel. For two decades, this quartet has played its blend of reggae, punk and surf, sharing the stage with other quintessential local acts like the Chop Tops and Expendables. Whether it’s surfing, skating or just kicking back at the Point with a few beers, Ribsy’s Nickel is the perfect soundtrack for every summer party. This Friday they’ll be joined by another decades-running Santa Cruz act, Spun, for a Fourth of July kick-off party. MAT WEIR

MUSIC

BE OUR GUEST ‘CHICAGO’ Set in Prohibition-era Chicago, Chicago is the longest-running American musical in Broadway history, and is considered one of Bob Fosse’s greatest works. Based on the 1926 play of the same name, Chicago tells the tale of “merry murderesses” Velma Kelly, who murdered her husband and sister when she found them in bed together, and Roxie Hart, who murdered her lover. The two women pursue fame, fortune and acquittal, as Cabrillo Stage puts its always-fantastic touch on the beloved production. CAT JOHNSON SPAWNBREEZIE

REGGAE

SPAWNBREEZIE Before he was even in grade school, Spawnbreezie was playing the piano and drums and was on his way to picking up the guitar and bass, as well. This well-roundedness has served the multiinstrumentalist artist well as he crafts reggae, hip-hop and a laid-back sound into what he describes as “island hip-hop.” A hit on the mainland as well as across the South Pacific, Spawnbreezie is an emerging star of the positive, island reggae scene. Also on the bill is House of Shem, a reggae harmony trio out of Aotearoa, New Zealand. CJ INFO: 9 p.m. Moe’s Alley, 1535 Commercial Way, Santa Cruz. $25/adv, $30/door. 479-1854.

A few weeks ago Beso Negro helped kick off the San Francisco Jazz, transforming a Hayes Valley intersection into a raging street party. Now a stripped-down version of the string-powered band brings the high energy punk-inflected Gypsy jazz sound to a much cozier setting. Billed simply as Beso, the trio features Adam Roach on guitar and vocals, Cheyenne Young on upright and electric bass, and Ethan Turner on drums and vocals. Focusing on originals songs, the combo combines the coiled energy of a power trio with the exuberant flair of true Djangophiles.

what you probably wouldn’t guess is the level of variety they bring to the funk. They play it slow or fast, with elements of rock, psychedelic, pop and reggae. It’s like a cross between later Fishbone, Parliament and Sexual Chocolate, the incredible band in the Eddie Murphy’s film Coming to America.

Their funk is all over the map. Remember when Arsenio Hall had a show and he used to call to his bandleader to give him (insert random crazy description) style of funk?

Well, that’s Funkanauts. AC

FILM

WAR OF PENS Colin Firth and Jude Law play editor Maxwell Perkins and author Thomas Wolfe, respectively, in biopic ‘Genius.’

JUNE 29-JULY 5, 2016 | GOODTIMES.SC | SANTACRUZ.COM

Editor Rex

50

Titanic editor, star author, match wits in ‘Genius’ BY LISA JENSEN

M

aybe it’s because my high school mounted a stage production of Look Homeward Angel when I was a senior, and I had a big crush on the guy who played the lead, but I’ve always had a soft spot for Thomas Wolfe’s coming-of-age novel, and the mystique of its author. Both figure prominently in the literary biopic Genius, which delves into the relationship between Wolfe and his editor at Charles Scribner’s Sons, the legendary Maxwell Perkins—the designated “genius” of the title—who was, by the time he met Wolfe, already famed as the editor who shepherded both Ernest Hemingway and F. Scott

Fitzgerald to publication in the 1920s.

Based on the biography, Max Perkins: Editor of Genius, by A. Scott Berg, the movie depicts Wolfe as a larger-than-life persona, eager to swallow life whole, and blast it out again in torrents of gorgeous prose.

It’s a view of the author that perhaps you can best appreciate if you fell in love with Wolfe’s great, sprawling verbiage at age 17. Jude Law is way over the top in the role, with his frenzied eyes and Southern-fried drawl, but his performance conveys the essence of a man utterly, passionately besotted by words.

In contrast to Law’s flamboyance, the movie gives us stoic, thoughtful,

dependable Colin Firth as editor Perkins. At the time the movie begins, in 1929, Perkins is a happily married father of five daughters, who takes the commuter train into New York City every day, usually with a manuscript he’s reading in hand. Having wrangled with the likes of Fitzgerald and Hemingway, he chooses his words with great care, for maximum impact. Firth plays Max as a man so button-down, he never takes off his fedora, even listening to the radio at night by his own fireside.

It makes sense that the director of Genius, award-winning stage director Michael Grandage, making his film debut, is also an actor. Working from

a script by John Logan (Hugo; Skyfall), Grandage turns the story of these two literary giants into a character study; a pas-de-deux between polar opposites, where the actor’s nuance is as crucial as bluster in moving the story forward. (In Law’s performance as well as Firth’s. Watch Law’s face when someone confronts Tom with a hard, unexpected truth).

Moving the story forward is also Max’s job description, and the film’s backstage look at the business of publishing, as he and Tom tussle over every line and page, is as fascinating as it is mind-boggling. Granted, Wolfe was an extreme case; in the movie, he delivers the manuscript for his second novel, Of Time and the River, in a parade of paper-filled crates, totaling 5,000 hand-written pages. (And he keeps adding more.)

It takes a fleet of Scribner’s typists months to pound it into typed pages before the editing can even begin.

The movie is as in love with words and their power as Tom is.

The filmmakers acknowledge Max’s point, that a book’s primary function is to tell a story, and if excessive verbiage—no matter how gloriously written—gets in the way, out it goes.

But it also sympathizes with Tom's lust for words for their own sake. When Max explains to Tom why an achingly beautiful passage has to go, first he reads it out loud, so we can all enjoy it.

Nicole Kidman adds a dark, waspish note as Tom’s unstable lover, Aline Bernstein. A stage set designer married to someone else, she’s left her family for Tom, and reacts in volatile ways to think she might be losing him to his new friendship with Max. Guy Pearce seems a bit too robust and forthright to convey the romantic tragedy of Fitzgerald, but Dominic West is great in his one scene as Hemingway.

It’s a shame this movie’s own preview trailer gave away so much; it’s difficult to get swept up in the story when you know what’s coming. But there’s still enough of interest here, in both the era and the industry, to keep us engaged, lit geeks and normal people alike.

GENIUS *** With Colin Firth, Jude Law, Nicole Kidman, and Laura Linney. Written by John Logan. Directed by Michael Grandage.

A Roadside Attractions release. Rated PG-13.

FILM NEW THIS WEEK THE BFG Roald Dahl’s classic BFG brought to the screen with Mark Rylance as the beloved vegetarian giant. Steven Spielberg directs.

Rebecca Hall and Bill Hader co-star.

(PG) 117 minutes.

THE LEGEND OF TARZAN Man has mid-life crisis, is disillusioned with life in the big city and a nagging wife, returns to the jungle to finally get some peace and quiet. David Yates directs. Margot Robbie, Alexander Skarsgård, Ella Purnell co-star. (PG-13) 109 minutes.

OUR KIND OF TRAITOR It must be a good week for the Skarsgård family: son Alexander is Tarzan in the aforementioned big-budget remake, and father Stellan plays a desperate Russian oligarch who seeks help from a couple on vacation (Ewan McGregor and Naomie Harris) in this film. We are totally OK with this Swedish invasion.

Susanna White directs. Damian Lewis co-stars. (R) 107 minutes.

JUNE 29-JULY 5, 2016 | GOODTIMES.SC | SANTACRUZ.COM

THE PURGE: ELECTION DAY Rick and Morty’s version is probably better. James DeMonaco directs.

Elizabeth Mitchell, Frank Grillo, Mykelti Williamson co-star. (R) 105 minutes.

52

SWISS ARMY MAN Paul Dano tries to hang himself on a beach, when at the last minute he sees Daniel Radcliffe washed up on the shore. Naturally, the situation devolves to where Dano drags him around with him, sees a water fountain spurt from his mouth, uses him as a rocket and may or may not ride him into the waves like a magical dolphin. Dan Kwan, Daniel Scheinert direct. Mary Elizabeth Winstead costars. (R) 95 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 itmight 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 costars. (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 co-star. (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. (PG-13) 146 minutes.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 notso-distant 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.

“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.

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 costars. (R) 98 minutes.

GENIUS Reviewed this issue. (PG-13) 104 minutes.

THE NEON DEMON Art-horror with a disturbing take on the modeling industry, from the director of Drive.

Nicolas Winding Refn directs. Elle Fanning, Christina Hendricks, Keanu Reeves co-star. (R) 117 minutes.

INDEPENDENCE DAY: RESURGENCE Twenty years after Will Smith, Bill Pullman and Jeff Goldblum fought off the invading aliens, the galactic bullies are back and, with 11 writers on this sequel and a $200-million budget for special effects, it’s theoretically bigger than ever. Roland Emmerich directs. Liam Hemsworth co-stars.

(PG-13) 120 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. (PG-13) 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 co-star. (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.

THE SHALLOWS Two of our favorite things: Blake Lively and movies that make us terrified of shark attacks.

That’s a joke. Still, an updating of way-out-of-proportion shark paranoia for modern audiences was probably inevitable. Jaume Collet-Serra directs. Óscar Jaenada and Brett Cullen costar. (PG-13) 87 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.

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 co-star. (R) 96 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? Comicbook movies these days should come with intermissions. Bryan Singer directs. Michael Fassbender and Jennifer Lawrence co-star. (PG-13) 144 minutes.

Breaking Grounds Three java enthusiasts pursue their Kickstarter-fueled vision with new Cat & Cloud Coffee BY LILY STOICHEFF

I

met Jared Truby, Chris Baca and Charles Jack—collectively known as Cat & Cloud Coffee—at their new location on the corner of 36th and Portola avenues on a recent sunny morning. The building we stood in was completely gutted, but will eventually hold an open, light-filled community space and the newest specialty coffee roastery in Santa Cruz.

Their energy and enthusiasm was palpable as we looked over

blueprints and discussed their vision to bring Santa Cruz the perfect morning buzz. “Coffee beans have magic locked inside of them, and for us it’s always a challenge to get that magic out and deliver it right to the cup,” says Baca. “We’re excited to give the community the very best of what we have to offer,” Truby adds.

Cat & Cloud recently raised $34,423 in 30 days through a fundraising campaign on Kickstarter, exceeding

their $30,000 goal. The money will go toward renovating their permanent location, which they hope to open in September. Until then, they will be holding pop-ups at Companion Bakeshop from 7 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. on Mondays, as a way of introducing the local community to their vivid roasts.

Before taking the leap into coffee entrepreneurship, Truby was a founding pillar at Verve, where he was head of retail for Northern

California and store manager for three years. He and Baca met in 2006 at their first United States Regional Barista Championship (yes, that’s a thing). While working at Verve, they met Jack, a “reformed” Wall Street financial adviser who discovered his passion for coffee while working with coffee farmers and nonprofits in East Africa. Now, the three of them are pursuing their own coffee vision, with unique roasts and cutting-edge brewing techniques.

Without letting the cat fully out of the bag, they hinted at a hyper-fast by-the-cup brewing technique and a non-coffee coffee beverage brewed with sound waves.

These guys are definitely nerds, but despite the sciency seriousness of their approach, Truby emphasizes, “We want to eschew the snobby baristas and cliquey feel of coffee shops and connect with people. Our goal is to educate people about how to do what we’re doing at home without trying as hard as other companies might make you feel you have to try.”

Cat & Cloud’s roasting philosophy strays from the brighter, more acidic lighter roasts that tend to be favored by the specialty coffee industry to darker roasts, which they view as more approachable for the average coffee drinker.

“There’s a big argument going on in specialty coffee right now. One side of the argument says that in order to maintain the intrinsic qualities of coffee, you have to roast them really, really lightly to the point where they’re almost pretty sour, and if you take them too far and roast them a little bit more to the point where they’re a little more approachable, you lose a lot of the clarity of flavor and the character,” explains Baca.

“We don’t agree with that at all. We believe you can have clarity of flavor, nuance and a really nice developed roast that anyone can drink. It just takes a lot of intentionality, and you really have to be paying attention.

It’s very hard. You ride a thin line, but that’s what we do and that’s what we’re excited about, for people to drink a full mug of these specialty coffees and want more.”

acking a robust sweet tooth, I was pretty picky about candy as a kid, and have become even more discerning as an adult. I usually prefer a decadent, sexy piece of chocolate on the rare occasion that I crave something sugary.

But a bag of assorted Sour Fruit Strips from Ashby Confections may have awakened a sweet side of me I didn’t know I had—although they are pretty sour, too.

The zingy sunset-colored candies ($2.75/ounce) are packed with intense flavors like strawberry rhubarb, golden apricot and kiwi, and they seem to glow with the warmth of tree-ripened fruit sourced directly from farmers markets.

Best of all, these candies contain only five (reasonably wholesome) ingredients: fresh local organic fruit, cane sugar, glucose, pectin and citric acid—which is fantastic, because even if the kid inside of me is delighted to be eating candy, seeing a laundry list of indecipherable chemicals on the back of a package kills, with a bolt of processed lightning, whatever craving adult me was trying to satisfy.

Jennifer Ashby, the mastermind behind this fruity treat, also says that the gummies contain no GMOs and are vegan; soon be using only certified organic ingredients. You can’t get much more “mother approved” than that.

These sour fruit strips got their beginning as a happy accident, after a batch of fruit candy was left to sit out too long. After some tweaking and experimentation, they have become Ashby’s most popular product.

Inspired by the ultra-beautiful fruit found year round at local markets and her relationships with farmers, Ashby has tried every seasonal flavor she can get her hands on, from Malaysian guava and Concord grapes to peach and Santa Rosa plum. Her Sour Fruit Strips made with fresh oranges were a finalist for a Good Food Award in 2015.

“I’ve always loved fruity candy.

That was my favorite thing when I was a little kid,” says Ashby. “People of all ages appreciate candy, and even those that claim to not like fruity stuff love these.”

Bargetto Winery Bargetto releases its ‘rich vintage’ La Vita 2012 BY JOSIE COWDEN

T

he annual La Vita release party at Bargetto Winery in June is always a sell-out affair. I found a good spot in the shade, picked up my complimentary wine glass and plate of food (included in the ticket), and began tasting their splendid wines.

But what everybody’s really waiting for is not just the release of the La Vita, but also the unveiling of the La Vita label—each year it’s a beautiful piece of art. As John Bargetto revealed the La Vita 2012 wine label, people were delighted with its Arabian theme. “It’s a 13th century piece on vellum—Arabic school—named the Grape Harvest,” says Bargetto. “The actual piece came from Baghdad.”

“La Vita wine is our finest effort in winemaking,” adds Bargetto, “from growing the grapes, to producing the wine to designing the unique package.” And although the label is certainly impressive, best of all are the contents of the bottle—the exotic wine itself—a unique blend of 49 percent Refosco, 30 percent Nebbiolo and 21 percent Dolcetto. Kudos are due to winemaker Olivia Teutschel for creating this superior nectar—one

that Bargetto calls a “rich vintage.”

As the 2012 La Vita ($60) is officially released, Bargetto Winery also released one bottle from each of 14 previous vintages, adding even more pleasure to the delightful afternoon.

The Bargetto family has always supported the community, so it came as no surprise that John Bargetto announced that he is running for a position on the Soquel Creek Water District board, which, as it happens, was co-founded by his father in 1961.

Let’s drink a toast to that! Bargetto Winery, 3535 N. Main St., Soquel, 4752258. bargetto.com.

H RISA’S STARS BY RISA D’ANGELES CANCER’S NEW MOON AND FOURTH OF JULY There are many icons for the sign of Cancer.

Garden gate (where spirits enter matter); crab in water, on land and under its shell; red vermillion bird, Hydra, lighthouse; and a “Lighted House to Dwell Therein.” Cancer is about one’s home and home’s comfort, roots, foundations, family history, nurturing traditions, and being patriotic. Cancer has an extraordinary memory, is very sensitive (Leos are too) and, due to the Moon’s rulership, fluctuating moodiness and a brooding over things.

Often Cancer sensitivity can interpret situations, words and events in ways that separate them from others. Cancers, when feeling hurt, fold into their shells. Cancers are tenacious, strong willed, and, due to their cardinal energy, like to be first. Kind, nurturing and gentle, they can also manipulate, sulk, and be temperamental, all the while protecting home and family. It’s good for

Cancers to exercise.

It helps work off sad feelings. Cancers are wise and instinctual and later, directed by the Soul, intuitive.

Monday, July 4, is the 240th birthday of the United States (signing of the Declaration of Independence). It’s also a new moon on the U.S. Sun (both 12 degrees Cancer), next to the blue star of freedom, Sirius (13 degrees Cancer). New moons signify new beginnings. The Cancer new moon, occurring in the second house (values and resources) could initiate new economic values and agendas, an economic reorientation (of American values and resources). Perhaps our country will begin to see humanity (Cancer) and the children of the U.S. as valuable and vital resources. Let the government of the people reach down into our nation and be no longer against our people but for our people.

ARIES Mar21–Apr20

LIBRA Sep23–Oct22

Home and how it sustains your relationship must hold your focused attention. There’s much to be done here. Ask yourself what the bigger picture is concerning your life, geography, relationships, partnerships. Careful if working in the hot sun.

You may not be absorbing enough water. Maintain proper and adequate electrolytes each day. Something challenges you, calling you to consider other realities. Step into them.

Communication may be difficult and you may feel anger and frustration. Simultaneously, others could be acting out those feelings for you in daily life. Just observe and know the planets are acting out, just for you. There’s a situation with money? Know whatever you give opens a gate of return, tenfold. That’s a cosmic law. Is there a wound or hurt occurring? Something you don’t understand and it’s limiting you? A cold laser light would help. And turmeric.

Esoteric Astrology as news for week of June 29, 2016

TAURUS Apr21–May21 Mercury and Venus (your ruler) surround the Sun and Moon in Cancer this week and your communication aligns with your true hopes and dreams. A line of light streams directly into your mind and heart. It unifies polarities if you love (Ray 2) and cooperate and listen more. Study and gather facts on finances, resources, gold and silver, land, gardens, foods and herbs that sustain a large community.

Free Rental Membership

SCORPIO Oct23–Nov21 Try not to be careless when communicating about people’s lives. Maintain ethics within the constant variations of reality. Your values have shifted so now you’re evaluating communications. This is good. Home is dissolving and coming together simultaneously as you seek comfort within groups. A wound seems to come from the future/past. Don’t worry about these strange occurrences, normal in times of reorientation.

SAGITTARIUS Nov22–Dec20

You hop, skip and jump between home and work, attempting to unify both. Home feels expansive, as if the future rests there. Work seems cloudy, old and wounding. This is a crisis!

Daily life is filled with desires for change. But nothing seems to move. You’re on a cross, attention called in four different directions. Nothing’s consistent. You’re seeking, navigating the waters of change. Return to a previous spiritual study.

A deep inner light focuses on money and resources. Questions appear concerning what you value. It’s good to create a list of values, concerning all aspects of life; personal, public, political, possessions, people. Who do you value? Why? What do you value, in terms of relationships and communication? Why? Your inner self needs to be discovered more deeply and so these questions are posed. Pluto is asking.

CANCER Jun21–Jul20

CAPRICORN Dec21–Jan20

Being creative is a good self-identity. Creativity seeks you every minute calling you to initiate new endeavors that respond to all the changes coming your way in terms of order and organization, relationships and self-identity, all of these important. Observe everything with calmness. Tend to health with a focus on proper digestion (probiotics, enzymes, green foods, alkaline waters, etc.). Communicate and share more.

An illumination of new beginnings occurs this new moon which is opposite your Sun. Do you (like Virgo) feel stretched in many directions? The direction of others, of work in the world, of home, family and finally yourself (where are you)? Tension leads to polarity which leads to a sweep into the future. Acknowledge all realities including tension. It’s purposeful. Place (visualize) an angel at each of the four directions of your home (and work). Stand in the center and intelligently and lovingly conduct the symphony of your life.

AQUARIUS Jan21–Feb18

VIRGO Aug23–Sep22

PISCES Feb19–Mar20

A new life and self identity beckon. Be sure to navigate slowly; allowing yourself rest so that your physical body, emotions and mind can catch up to the expansiveness flowing through you. You will restructure all beliefs and ideals. We need this reorientation several times in our lives so values and pioneering inner resources can emerge from spiritual sources. A new Jupiter cycle begins. Jupiter is Ray 2, expanding Love/Wisdom.

As you step more into a state of repose and reflection, hidden abilities come forth, awakening a deeper spiritual self-identity.

You recognize you’re to direct, teach, learn from, work with and serve others. So many (humanity and its children) need nurturing and you need the skills. However, you feel a great tension and unease of not being in the right place. Yet you continue forward. Something will change soon. Quietly carry on.

Each day is busy, filled with responsibilities, tasks, errands, strivings attempting to create comfort and nurturance.

Simultaneously, dreaminess seems to permeate daily life and choices. Relationships become more important and you wonder if you need to learn different communication skills.

An inner silence and solemnity is preparing for your birthday. Sitting amidst your Sun is the past, providing you with opportunities to remember, forgive and ask for forgiveness. Gratitude is part of forgiveness. You’re asked to value every person, event and occurrence in your life. When you’re able to understand and work on these, a new breath of life, a baptism fills you. And all restrictions, hindrances and obstructions disappear.

JOHN HOWERTON, 37-Year Customer, Santa Cruz

Occupation: Electrical contractor, Howerton Electrical, Hobbies: Backpacking, hiking, environmentalism, cooking, gardening Astrological Sign: Libra What do you like to cook? Mostly comfort food and barbecue. Shopper’s has such a good variety of meat. If I want to try something new, I can ask the butchers what they recommend and how to cook it, whether it’s roasted, pan-fried, or barbecued. I like that the meats are fresh and great quality. I can choose the cut I want, and the butchers — they’re not just stocking pre-packaged products — will trim or special-cut it for me. My all-time favorite, which I call “meat candy,” is Shopper’s marinated skirt steak. I’ll roast some veggies and I’ve got a great meal. Shopper’s provides a unique, excellent shopping experience.

How so? I like that the people are friendly and willing to help you out if you have a question or a special request. For a small store, they’ve got everything I need. I prefer shopping local and rarely shop the big stores. You can’t get the same level of service or quality products as you do at Shopper’s.

Take the produce — much of it is local, plus there’s a huge variety and it’s always fresh. I prefer organic.

The pricing is good but secondary to the value you’re getting. Shopper’s is an important community business: they employ people who are conscious of the needs of the neighborhood; they also donate to local projects and many fundraisers.

What would you say to someone new to the community about Shopper’s? Come here for the quality and selections. Come back for the service and feel welcomed and acknowledged. I’ve never had a bad experience in 37 years at Shopper’s. If you like speciality products, you’ve got to check out their cheese selections — it’s really terrific and you can’t beat the variety. Same with the wines, plus they’re knowledgeable… There’s always someone to help you pick a special wine as a gift or to pair with good food.

Shopper’s probably has the best variety of chocolate bars in town. You’ll never become bored! I’ll bring a good mix with me when I go backpacking.

I prefer shopping local and rarely shop the big stores. You can’t get the same level of service or quality products as you do at Shopper’s.
