OPINION

EDITOR’S NOTE Gah, Logos! The news that the used-book-andrecords fixture is closing down has me all sentimental and weirdly anxious.

When I first arrived in Santa Cruz, Logos was in its crazy earthquake-recovery location off of Laurel Street, in a structure that I remember looking a lot like one of those creepy warehouses the bad guys always meet at before a heist in the movies.

I spent roughly 32,947 hours rifling through everything there over the next few years, looking for some obscure Patti Smith bootleg or Re/ Search book or whatever. When it moved to its “new” location on

VISION FOR WHO?

4

Re: “2030 vision” (GT, 5/24): I agree we need more places for rent, but I am concerned that much of the proposed housing is not appropriate for couples or families, let alone companion animals.

Humans are social creatures, driven to have relationships and build families.

Without accommodation, it ostracizes and pushes out the next generation. We need kids, and they need to be healthy and secure, not more isolated and sick.

Santa Cruz could make great leaps ecologically and socially by having each new housing development host a complete rooftop garden for its residents’ enjoyment and health. Effects of the green space would carry over to the neighbors by reducing heating and cooling costs, raising oxygen levels, reducing airborne toxins, and providing a place for nature—and residents—to thrive.

ROWAN LINDENFELD | CORRALITOS

KEEP THE TRACKS So what’s up with this misnamed “greenway” plan to rip out all of the railroad tracks? Somehow we can’t have both?

Pacific, sweeping through for a quick or extended browse was just part of what one did when one was downtown on a Friday night. Now, with it being right next door to the GT office, I swing by at lunch sometimes, usually to see if there are any new children’s poetry books my kid will like. I feel in every way like I’ve grown up with that place, and I’ll miss it. Check out Jacob Pierce’s story in our news section for the full story.

Otherwise, this week is all about burgers, because it’s … wait for it … Burger Week! Our staff has been eating stacks and stacks of them, and now you can, too. Check out some of our favorites in the cover story—we have meatless options, too, of course—and a full list of the debut participants with details about their featured burgers this week!

STEVE PALOPOLI | EDITOR-IN-CHIEF

I certainly can’t see why that would be true. Why not have tracks, and eventually a transit system and bike and pedestrian trails as well?

If the tracks were removed it would permanently eliminate any possibility of future rail transit systems due to the huge cost. Also, it would be a huge waste of money to take out tracks unnecessarily.

My suspicion is that wealthy homeowners in Aptos and other trackside locations are trying to eliminate the use of the tracks to enhance their property values. Sort of like people who buy homes at a reduced price due to proximity to an airport and then want to stop the airplanes! I live on a busy street—maybe we can just get it closed off so it would be quieter? Right!

Let’s use this valuable resource for the greater good of the overall community!

ROB BREZSNY FREE WILL ASTROLOGY Week of July 19 ARIES Mar21–Apr19 The Greek word philokalia is translated as the “love of the beautiful, the exalted, the excellent.” I propose that we make it your keyword for the next three weeks—the theme you keep at the forefront of your awareness everywhere you go. But think a while before you say yes to my invitation. To commit yourself to being so relentlessly in quest of the sublime would be a demanding job.

Are you truly prepared to adjust to the poignant sweetness that might stream into your life as a result?

TAURUS Apr20–May20 It's a favorable time to strengthen your fundamentals and stabilize your foundation. I invite you to devote your finest intelligence and grittiest determination to this project. How? Draw deeply from your roots. Tap into the mother lode of inspiration that never fails you. Nurture the web of life that nurtures you. The cosmos will offer you lots of help and inspiration whenever you attend to these practical and sacred matters. Best-case scenario: You will bolster your personal power for many months to come.

GEMINI May21–June20 Two talking porcupines are enjoying an erotic tryst in a cactus garden. It’s a prickly experience, but that’s how they like it. “I always get horny when things get thorny,” says one. Meanwhile, in the rose garden next door, two unicorns wearing crowns of thorns snuggle and nuzzle as they receive acupuncture from a swarm of helpful hornets. One of the unicorns murmurs, “This is the sharpest pleasure I’ve ever known.” Now here’s the moral of these far-out fables, Gemini: Are you ready to gamble on a cagey and exuberant ramble through the brambles? Are you curious about the healing that might become available if you explore the edgy frontiers of gusto?

JULY 19-25, 2017 | GOODTIMES.SC | SANTACRUZ.COM

SCORPIO Oct23–Nov21 The world will never fully know or appreciate the nature of your heroic journey. Even the people who love you the most will only ever understand a portion of your epic quest to become your best self. That’s why it’s important for you to be generous in giving yourself credit for all you have accomplished up until now and will accomplish in the future. Take time to marvel at the majesty and miracle of the life you have created for yourself.

Celebrate the struggles you’ve weathered and the liberations you’ve initiated. Shout “Glory hallelujah!” as you acknowledge your persistence and resourcefulness. The coming weeks will be an especially favorable time to do this tricky but fun work.

SAGITTARIUS Nov22–Dec21 I suspect you may have drug-like effects on people in the coming weeks. Which drugs? At various times, your impact could resemble cognac, magic mushrooms, and Ecstasy—or sometimes all three simultaneously. What will you do with all that power to kill pain and alter moods and expand minds? Here’s one possibility: Get people excited about what you’re excited about, and call on them to help you bring your dreams to a higher stage of development. Here’s another: Round up the support you need to transform any status quo that’s boring or unproductive.

CANCER Jun21–Jul22

CAPRICORN Dec22–Jan19

I predict that four weeks from now you will be enjoying a modest but hearty feeling of accomplishment—on one condition: You must not get diverted by the temptation to achieve trivial successes. In other words, I hope you focus on one or two big projects, not lots of small ones. What do I mean by “big projects”? How about these: taming your fears; delivering a delicate message that frees you from an onerous burden; clarifying your relationship with work; and improving your ability to have the money you need.

“Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves.” So said psychologist Carl Jung. What the hell did that meddling, self-important know-it-all mean by that? Oops. Sorry to sound annoyed. My cranky reaction may mean I’m defensive about the possibility that I’m sometimes a bit preachy myself. Maybe I don’t like an authority figure wagging his finger in my face because I’m suspicious of my own tendency to do that. Hmmm. Should I therefore refrain from giving you the advice I’d planned to? I guess not. Listen carefully, Capricorn: Monitor the people and situations that irritate you. They’ll serve as mirrors. They’ll show you unripe aspects of yourself that may need adjustment or healing.

LE0 Jul23–Aug22

alignment to take maximum advantage of current cosmic rhythms. For the next three weeks, say them periodically throughout the day. 1. “I want to give the gifts I like to give rather than the gifts I’m supposed to give.”

2. “If I can’t do things with excellence and integrity, I won’t do them at all.” 3. “I intend to run on the fuel of my own deepest zeal, not on the fuel of someone else’s passions.” 4. “My joy comes as much from doing my beautiful best as from pleasing other people.”

Spain’s most revered mystic poet was St. John of the Cross, who lived from 1542 to 1591. He went through a hard time at age 35, when he was kidnapped by a rival religious sect and imprisoned in a cramped cell. Now and then he was provided with scraps of bread and dried fish, but he almost starved to death. After ten months, he managed to escape and make his way to a convent that gave him sanctuary. For his first meal, the nuns served him warm pears with cinnamon. I reckon that you’ll soon be celebrating your own version of a jailbreak, Leo. It’ll be less drastic and more metaphorical than St. John’s, but still a notable accomplishment. To celebrate, I invite you to enjoy a ritual meal of warm pears with cinnamon.

VIRGO Aug23–Sep22 “I’m very attracted to things that I can’t define,” says Belgian fashion designer Raf Simons. I’d love for you to adopt that attitude, Virgo. You’re entering the Season of Generous Mystery. It will be a time when you can generate good fortune for yourself by being eager to get your expectations overturned and your mind blown.

Transformative opportunities will coalesce as you simmer in the influence of enigmas and anomalies. Meditate on the advice of the poet Rainer Maria Rilke: “I want to beg you to be patient toward all that is unsolved in your heart and to try to love the questions themselves.”

LIBRA Sep23–Oct 22 I’ve compiled a list of four mantras for you to draw strength from. They’re designed to put you in the proper

AQUARIUS Jan20–Feb18 A source of tough and tender inspiration seems to be losing some of its signature potency. It has served you well. It has given you many gifts, some difficult and some full of grace. But now I think you will benefit from transforming your relationship with its influence. As you might imagine, this pivotal moment will be best navigated with a clean, fresh, open attitude. That’s why you’ll be wise to thoroughly wash your own brain—not begrudgingly, but with gleeful determination. For even better results, wash your heart, too.

PISCES Feb19–Mar20 A “power animal” is a creature selected as a symbolic ally by a person who hopes to imitate or resonate with its strengths. The salmon or hare might be a good choice if you’re seeking to stimulate your fertility, for example.

If you aspire to cultivate elegant wildness, you might choose an eagle or horse. For your use in the coming months, I propose a variation on this theme: the “power fruit.” From now until at least May 2018, your power fruit should be the ripe strawberry. Why? Because this will be a time when you’ll be naturally sweet, not artificially so; when you will be juicy, but not dripping all over everything; when you will be compact and concentrated, not bloated and bursting at the seams; and when you should be plucked by hand, never mechanically.

READY, SET, GLOW! Ingredients for the Warm Glow soup, one of several options included in Kitchen Witch Bone Broth’s monthly cleanse. PHOTO: STACY HOOVER

Reset Button

Kitchen Witch Bone Broth’s five-day cleanse program is a welcome hush for the gut BY TARA FATEMI WALKER cleanse leader Magali Brecke, LAc., refers to the program as a “genuine hush period for the gut.”

“While we do use the word ‘cleanse,’ we like to skew more toward the idea of a ‘reset,’” says Brecke, who started Kitchen Witch Bone Broth in November 2015 with Rhiannon Henry, LAc and Missy Woolstenhulme. “Our modern world bombards us with fake foods, environmental toxins, and unnatural stress that affects us from birth to death.”

One of the main goals of the cleanse program, which they launched in February, is to reduce inflammation, which can be caused by factors like stress and poor eating. Like a few others in the cleanse, I added

“optional foods” when I absolutely needed to, like steamed veggies and salad, and made sure to avoid gluten, dairy, sugar, grains, legumes and nightshades—anything with a possibility of being inflammatory. The cleanse leaders offer simple “infusion ideas”; I mostly added grass-fed butter and cinnamon. While I was hungry some of the time—especially during the first two days—overall I had a positive experience. I felt much lighter and more energetic afterward.

The Kitchen Witch Bone Broth soups and broths provide macronutrients, protein from bone broth, healthy fat from coconut oil, some carbs in veggies, “and crazy-high antioxidants and minerals,” says Brecke.

Info: Price for cleanse is $275. Offered once a month. Visit kitchenwitchbroth.com/ cleanse/ for more information.

O

ver the last couple of years, I’ve increasingly thought about doing a cleanse, knowing it could do my body good. But a fear of extreme hunger kept me from ever taking the plunge—until last month, when I signed up for one of the monthly cleanse programs offered by local company Kitchen Witch Bone Broth.

For five days, I drank bone broth twice a day, which is said to soothe and coat the digestive tract, and ate their savory soup three times a day. Each morning, the first thing I consumed was fresh lemon juice with two ounces of warm water, and each day I received email support and tips.

Kitchen Witch co-founder and

Aside from the five jars of organic bone broth—our choice of chicken, pastured ginger pork, beef or “almost veggie”—we received a personalized combination of 15 jars of soup. The soups were satisfying and flavorful, with choices like Healing Greens— which contains cilantro, ginger, Meyer lemon, kale, broccoli and Japanese white sweet potato—and the beautiful orange “Warm Glow,” which includes coconut milk, carrots and turmeric. The varieties rotate, and all are made with organic bone broth, plus fresh organic vegetables from Santa Cruz farmers markets, herbs and spices, and coconut oil.

After cooking the soups, Kitchen Witch purees them for easy absorption and easy transport—they travel well in thermoses.

During the cleanse, I occasionally felt a bit foggy, which I noticed when driving or doing other activities requiring concentration. I emailed Brecke, and she explained this was likely mild detoxification setting in, and recommended activities like dry brushing, and adding small meals.

I also noticed that my body doesn’t need as much food as I thought it did—I was hungry during the cleanse, but after the cleanse I wasn’t eating as much as I had been prior to it. Also, my body wasn’t craving sweets and sugar, which was a nice surprise. I slept a lot better on the cleanse, and even for a few days after.

I plan to do the Reset again in the future, utilizing more of the suggestions that Kitchen Witch provides for cleanse enhancement, like dry brushing and tongue scraping, and “bulletproof drinks” (a couple tablespoons of coconut milk with ghee/grass-fed butter/coconut oil and a pinch of cinnamon added to teas, since drinking coffee on a cleanse isn’t desirable.).

“When we take a pause from three-square-meals, we nudge our body to reset the barometers for satiation, for sweet, and for nutrient rich foods,” says Brecke. “That reset can be long-lasting, and the beginning of bigger change.”

NEWS MULTIDIMENSIONAL Inside the Multiversity project, Scotts Valley’s new wellness and learning center

JULY 19-25, 2017 | GOODTIMES.SC | SANTACRUZ.COM

BY GARY SINGH

12

As we traverse the landscape of 1440 Multiversity in Scotts Valley, Scott Kriens of Juniper Networks talks about 800,000 pounds of Sierra granite boulders that his team gathered to build a creek bed.

Along the way, he points out Indonesian teakwood chairs, custom hand-fabricated steel railings, and wooden ceiling beams air-blasted with walnut shells.

Built on a 75-acre spread formerly occupied by the abandoned Bethany Christian College, 1440 is a new learning destination, a place where numerous high-profile teachers are just now starting to book classes. People from all over the world show up to reevaluate their inner mechanisms.

Named after the exact number of minutes in a day, 1440 Multiversity is already open, but construction is still unfolding as Kriens takes me around the campus. We see yoga studios, redwood lodges, meeting and spa facilities, an organic kitchen and black limestone stairways. 1440 is a wellness center, an immersion learning destination, a cooking school, an integrative healing retreat, a hiking getaway, and a corporate meeting facility for groups who value contemplative traditions. The first shovel hit the ground in summer 2014.

The entire campus, Kriens says, is the logical expansion of the work he and his wife started with the 1440 Foundation, an effort to support “compassionate communities leading generative lives” to better their relationships with themselves and others, or in other words, help people contribute to the world by creating more energy than they consume.

“Joanie and I started the foundation in 2010, not yet with any plan for all of this, but really around a belief that we still share, which is that there’s a whole world of growth and learning to be developed inside of ourselves,” he tells me. “In some ways it’s kinda the new frontier all over again.”

Some of the buildings on the campus retain elements of the abandoned Bethany campus, while other structures have been totally rebuilt. The administration >16

STORYBOOK ENDING John Livingston has been in the used book and music business for nearly five decades. PHOTO: JACOB PIERCE

Final Chapter

Logos, cherished book and music store, closing after 48 years downtown BY JACOB PIERCE

A

strange mood hangs over Logos Books and Records—somber, nostalgic.

“Can I sell some books?” a middle school kid asks the man working behind the counter on Saturday morning, July 15.

“We’re not buying books anymore,” the man responds. “Try Bookshop Santa Cruz.”

Word began leaking out this month among longtime customers that the two-story used book and music shop will close at the end of the summer— ever since owner John Livingston started telling a few friends.

Employees began doing the same.

“Everyone has a different point of view on it. Some people only care

about how they can’t shop here anymore. Other people care about how it’s a loss to the community. And other people come up and congratulate me because I get a chance to retire,” says Livingston, a sentiment resembling regret in his voice.

Not regret, necessarily, for any decisions he’s made in the 48 years since he first launched the business.

It’s more the rueful reflection of a man who wishes things could have gone another way.

After several years subsidizing the beloved destination, Livingston, now 70, began to yearn for retirement—more time playing music and golf and helping with Kuumbwa Jazz, where he sits on the board of trustees. He had started to

worry about what it would mean if something happened to him and his wife Fran Etow was stuck managing an increasingly costly operation.

“You know, I started thinking about the practical aspects,” he says.

Logos will be temporarily closed through Wednesday, July 19, while Livingston, his employees and a consultant complete an inventory and organize a sale, which will begin on Thursday, July 20, and last through the summer.

Livingston first got his start in 1968, when he took a job as a music buyer at Moe’s Books in Berkeley, where he went to college.

That store’s owner, Moe Moskowitz, became a mentor to Livingston, who left soon >14

after to drive around the United States, searching for a place to open a book and music store of his own.

After realizing he didn’t actually want to leave the area, Livingston decided on Santa Cruz. And at his boss’ insistence, he took extra copies of books that Moe’s had duplicates of and brought them to Santa Cruz to sell at his grand opening. It was something that rubbed some Moe’s employees the wrong way, Livingston recalls—not that his mentor really cared what they thought.

Doris Moskowitz, Moe’s daughter, who now runs the Berkeley store, says her father was a mentor to a lot of young people, and employees often questioned his willingness to help out fledgling entrepreneurs— and even would-be competitors—

“They lent me a little bit, and I paid them back within a year. It was lightsout from the start. The doors opened, and we were flooded with books to sell. For the first 10 years, it was great.

I was in my 20s with lots of money.”

Livingston’s favorite used-book memory involves a copy of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer that a woman named Charlotte Williams brought in. And instead of buying that day for a few bucks, the book buyers set it aside, telling her they thought it might be worth more, and they’d like to get back to her. The novel eventually fetched $18,000 at auction, with Williams and Logos splitting the proceeds.

The 1989 earthquake dealt the store a big blow, but Livingston was able to buy a new building—its current three-story location >16

who followed in his footsteps. She remembers her father as very proud, and even a little bit “cocky.” He was so confident in his business that he felt no one could truly pose any threat.

And regardless, he wanted nothing more than to spread the joy of book selling, and he wanted bookstores to do it “the right way,” like he did, explains Moskowitz, who’s been to Logos many times herself. The Moskowitz family earned a reputation for paying fair prices for the books that customers brought in, and building a relationship with those customers over time.

And so with a small loan from his parents, Livingston opened Logos at its original Cooper Street location in 1969, when he was 22.

“In those days, you could start a business for almost nothing,” he says.

In a tourist economy that draws visitors from around the world, real estate agent Derek Timm says talk of further regulating, possibly even voiding, a few hundred vacation rentals around Santa Cruz makes for a bad look.

“I think it’s really ugly,” says Timm, a Scotts Valley planning commissioner. Timm built a vacation rental on Front Street near the Santa Cruz Municipal Wharf and has his Montalvo Homes and Estates office in the same building. “Rather than looking at those people as good actors and encouraging them to continue, they are being blamed for a problem that is not of their own creation.”

Anyone guessing the debate over short-term rentals might soon cool down would probably be wrong. Although heated subcommittee meetings wrapped up in April, the first planning commission meeting had the intensity of a pressure cooker. At a five-hour June 29 evening meeting, which adjourned after midnight,

members of the subcommittee said they did not recognize the recommendations that city staffers had drafted—even suggesting that planners had ignored their hard work altogether.

Brion Sprinsock, a supporter of tighter vacation rental regulations, gave a presentation on the impact of sites like airbnb.com on housing stock. Sprinsock, who served on the Short-Term Vacation Rental Subcommittee, has created an informational site called unfairbnb.net and posted flyers in neighborhoods like Beach Hill that “Airbnb is destroying our city.” In the city council chambers people held up signs that read “our neighborhoods need your help” and “we need housing,” while proponents argued about a property owner’s right to rent their space.

Timm, who also gave a presentation, has launched his own website, sccrva.com, which stands for Santa Cruz County Rental and Visitor Alliance.

There are currently 303 short-term rentals registered with the city, but opponents

say the real number is much higher, citing a San Francisco Chronicle article published in April 2016, that found roughly 76 percent of short-terms in San Francisco operate illegally, with big impacts on neighborhoods and rents, they argue.

Sprinsock, a local homeowner and landlord, says that by compiling listings from the top five vacation sites and cross-referencing them, he has counted 572 active rentals in Santa Cruz, and suggests the number could keep growing.

He cites a Morgan Stanley Research survey from November 2016 in which 18 percent of the roughly 4,000 people polled had recently used Airbnb, a 25-percent increase over the year before.

Sprinsock, who owns the Hinds House Extended Stay Hotel, also points out that, according to the Stanley survey, 98 percent of those questioned would’ve stayed in other lodgings if vacation rentals were not available.

Timm pins most of the town’s rising rents on UCSC, where enrollment has risen a

little more than 3,000 students in the last 10 years, according to the school’s website. He says he’s done an informal survey, which found that the vast majority of vacation rental owners would not convert their spaces to long-term housing, even if the city banned online short-term rentals.

“The city is saying, ‘This is a solution to our housing problem,’ without any data or knowledge of what is out there,” he says.

By the end of the meeting, exhausted commissioners agreed to cap the number of short-term rentals at 400, with one short-term rental per owner. They also agreed to phase out non-hosted rentals over the next decade and allow nonconforming rentals—those not registered with the city—to start complying with city regulations over the next five years. They’ll keep working on the details at their next 7 p.m. meeting on Thursday, July 20, when the commission will keep working on recommendations they’re eventually sending to the Santa Cruz City Council.

MULTIDIMENSIONAL <12 building and check-in area, for example, was formerly a drab 1950s-era concrete structure. It’s been taken apart and repurposed as a craftsman style building to now look like a Rocky Mountain ski lodge.

Elements of Canadian cedar, stone, slate and copper give the interior an earthy vibe. Some of the wooden beams came from Melvin Belli’s old Nob Hill mansion in San Francisco.

Kriens solicited numerous collaborators in the process of constructing every single component, straight down to 40-millionyear-old fossils ingrained in the stone masonry work, all of which was done entirely

by hand, piece after piece. As we continue to trip around the property, a minute doesn’t go by without him pointing out similar levels of detail at every single structure.

“To be consistent, that means building with a real staff also,” Kriens says.

In another mind-blowing scenario, a building now called the Sanctuary was the original main chapel at Bethany University.

The front portion of the building, formerly the choir riser, is now a retail space filled with yoga supplies, books, jewelry and gifts. Kriens points to a table made from 1,200-year-old redwood, plus chic rubber flooring and hanging lamps made from repurposed PA system horns that the church used 50 years ago. The rest of the

building, formerly the main church area, is now repurposed as a studio for yoga classes, meditation, movement therapy, trauma desensitization exercises and a variety of introspective healing practices.

The property goes on and on.

A teaching kitchen will feature classes, alternative food instruction and 12 stations where students can work hand-to-hand with chefs. A hi-tech lecture hall already provides hi-quality audio and video recordings for every teacher who presents here. They get copies of the video for free.

The legendary Buddhist teacher Jack Kornfield recently taught a class of 300 people from 17 different countries. The list of future faculty reads like an international

who’s who of mindfulness, self-discovery, nutrition, growth psychology and healing arts disciplines.

“What we’re out to do is to create this learning destination that invites people to both rest and recharge, but also maybe integrate some things about ourselves,” Kriens says. “Not just the physical self or the intellectual self—that’s what we all got taught in school—but the emotional, relational self.”

From that integration, he adds, we become “a little bit more whole, and then take that out, and share it with those that matter most in our lives.”

FINAL CHAPTER <14 with a basement, offices on top and a skylight that beams down the center on sunny afternoons. Business peaked in the mid-1990s, Livingston remembers, “and then all of a sudden the downloaded music started happening.”

Livingston cut back Logos’ rent in the following years. When the numbers dipped again, he stopped taking a salary. After that, he reduced the store’s rent some more.

Then in the summer of 2015, used book sales began nosediving. At first it was only a few percentage points per month. But even that meant a serious blow for the part of the business that had, until then, appeared relatively resilient.

Suddenly, one month saw a 12-percent drop in sales. “And hasn’t picked up,” he says. “I can’t look at very many months that have been up, and I can look at a lot of them that have been down.”

People’s reading habits have changed, Livingston says, and shoppers are browsing for books less than ever.

Livingston had once prided himself on paying well above minimum wage, but that became difficult to do, he says. He listed his business on the market for a year, and had some serious talks, but couldn’t secure a buyer.

“Essentially, the biggest problem is the rents downtown are high, and I own the building, and because I’m trying to retire, I need to get at least a reasonable market rate for the space,” he says. “The economics of a used book store now, especially of that size, just don’t work.”

Livingston has started looking for new tenants.

In order to reshape a used bookstore like his into something that might survive, Livingston says, it would have taken an owner with a different model, a lot of time and plenty money to experiment with.

Meanwhile, Livingston keeps hearing from distraught customers.

“They come in and say, ‘What am I going to do now?’ Or ‘I have no more reason to come downtown.’ I’ve heard that several times because it’s a unique store,” he says. “It’s one of the things that makes Santa Cruz different from other places. In that sense, it’s horrible. There aren’t many great bookstores left in the world. I consider this to be one of the best.”

Burger 20

A NOTE FROM THE EDITOR ABOUT BURGER WEEK: Santa Cruz does not get

nearly enough love as a burger town.

That’s ridiculous, as we have more great burgers than you can shake a side of fries at.

The thing is, nobody agrees exactly on what makes a burger great. We’ve discovered this around the GT office, where Lily Stoicheff and I in particular are always arguing about who makes

the best burger in Santa Cruz, and saying how we’re going to write a point/counterpoint laying out our arguments. She thinks it’s Oswald, I say it’s Gabriella.

Actually, you know what’d be funny? If I just write why I think Gabriella has the best burger in town right here in this editor’s note, and don’t even tell her about it, so she doesn’t have a chance to argue with me. Bwah, this is perfect!

OK, I’ve thought about this for a while now, and I think the reason Gabriella’s burger is best boils down to one thing: everything.

What I mean by that is that the integrity and balance of a Gabriella burger simply cannot be beat. Let me count the ways: first, it has the most compact and delicious focaccia bun you’re going to find anywhere. This bun is flat and sleek—a stealth bomber could fly

along its surface and successfully avoid radar detection. The grassfed beef is delicious, the tomato super fresh, and there’s just enough lettuce to attain crunch—and not a leaf more. I do not want to have to eat my way through a lettuce field to get to the parts of my burger I really care about. And the bacon is subtle, so that the whole thing comes together in a kind of perfect meat-sandwich storm. That’s what

r Town GET ON THE PATTY WAGON

PHOTOS: KEANA PARKER

I mean by balance, and that’s what the Gabriella burger has.

I can’t wait to see Lily’s face when she reads this. I’ll guess she’ll have to take her counterpoint somewhere else, since she can’t very well argue with me here in this editor’s note, can she?

Sure I can.

What? Lily, is that you?

Yup. What are you doing in my editor’s note?

I’m just over at Oswald’s eating an amazing burger and laughing at how dumb you are.

Wait … what is happening right now?

Well, Steve, right now I’m ridiculing your foolish assertion that Oswald is not the best burger in town. Let me tell you what I want in a burger: I want a lightas-a-butterfly-kiss toasted brioche bun to soak up all those delicious meat juices without becoming a gooey mess.

This is key to the structural integrity of the burger, of which Oswald is a master.

No, I mean how are you even doing this? Talking to me in my own blurb?

You see, there’s zero slippage between the lettuce, tomato, pickled onion, aioli and melted cheese. The architecture is so well executed that you are able to enjoy the full combination of flavor elements down to the last perfect bite without having one of the

components slide out.

This is not the place for this, Lily!

I know we have this argument all the time about which of these is the best burger, but you can’t just come in here and hijack this note! Also, you’re wrong! Very, very wrong!

I love Oswald’s burger, too, but Gabriella’s is simply …

Oh, and about that aioli—or as I like to call it, the special sauce of grown ups. Greater than the sum of 22>

its simple ingredients in a way that’s kind of mysterious, it takes the Oswald burger up a notch from damn near perfect to …

Hey hey, that’s all the time we have! Looking at the final tally, I see that absolutely everyone agrees with me that Gabriella has the best burger in Santa Cruz!

I will find you. I have a certain set of skills.

What an amazing unanimous win for this fantastic burger! Until next

Burger Week, everyone enjoy these staff picks—of course there’s no way we could try every burger in Santa Cruz, but we all gained weight trying. It’s a small sampling, maybe, but I think you’ll see from these picks that people are passionate about their favorites, and about what makes a great burger and why.

And Lily, get the hell out of my head.

Is it the salt? The cold meat? The 100-percent meat patty? No, really, I’m asking.

I mention this because I’m pretty sure that’s what they do at East End for their house burger. The outside is beautifully caramelized, the inside juicy when cooked medium rare, really flavorful and not too salty, sandwiched in a griddled bun with a slice of melty cheese and a few housemade cucumber pickles. LS

ZACHARY’S When it comes to burgers, what is the right balance between savory and sweet? If it’s too savory, it just tastes salty—some people are into that, but it’s not my thing. If it’s too sweet, it probably means it’s swimming in barbecue sauce or something.

But Zachary’s Gourmet Burger finds the savory-sweet sweet spot.

It’s an elegantly constructed dome

of umami with just the smallest hint of something sugary that you can’t help but want to chase all the way through with your burger-chomping teeth. I’m not sure where that touch of sweetness comes from, but I figure it must have something to do with the nexus of bacon, just-ripeenough avocado and cheese (swiss is my preference). Normally, I’m a big fan of frying bacon back into the Stone Age, ’till it’s so crisp you could shatter it with a flick of your fingers. But god, not on a burger.

On a burger you shouldn’t notice the taste or consistency until about halfway through the bite—it should be subtle enough for you to wonder “Wait, did I get bacon on this?” before you remember that you did, and that you are a genius. That’s how you feel eating Zach’s gourmet burger. SP

U.S. MEAL While they have recently renovated their restaurant in the East Cliff Plaza, my preferred place to enjoy a burger from U.S. Meal is from a barstool at nearby East Cliff Brewing.

Located just around the corner from the restaurant, guests can order off U.S. Meal’s full menu and have their meal delivered to them without interrupting their game of Jenga.

Weighing in at a quarter of a pound, the house burger may be on the modest side, but it’s nonetheless satisfying—and at $6.50 with a side of fries, it’s kind of a steal. TBH, this is my preferred size of burger, as I can easily eat one and feel satiated without hating myself afterward. It’s accompanied by a thick slice of red onion, tomatoes, lettuce, plenty of pickles, American cheese and thickcut fries. Oh, and mayo—ye mayo haters be warned. It’s seriously tasty, one of my favorite non-fancy burgers in Santa Cruz. LS

WOODEN NICKEL This unapologetically straightforward burger has the charbroiled flavors beef lovers would expect from the unabashedly old-school Wooden Nickel Bar and Grill on Freedom Boulevard in Watsonville. Of course, any sturdy bar burger will pair nicely with a West Coast craft beer, of which the joint has five, including Deschutes Black Butte Porter and Lagunitas IPA. For Burger Week, the Wooden Nickel will be serving basically a supped-up half-pound version of its standard third-pound creation, which comes complete with tomato, lettuce, cheese and grilled onion on a toasted, buttery bun, with sides of slaw, a brownie and some French fries. Those fries— skinnier than steak fries, thicker than skinny fries—taste of actual fresh potatoes, and are loved by South County families and beer-guzzling sports fans alike. JACOB PIERCE

RED RESTAURANT AND BAR

For takeout or reservations call 831-662-2BBQ For catering 831-708-2177 or catering@sidssmokehouse.com 10110 Soquel Drive, Aptos (on the frontage road at Hwy 1 & Freedom Blvd.)

For many of the bar-going crowd in Santa Cruz, going to the Red before 9 p.m. can sound like a dubious prospect—those dark corners in the cold light of day? Dinnertime might just be the best time to go, not only

to revisit the stained glass cupola of the old hotel architecture, but also because that’s when the delightful Red staff has yet to be overrun by the 20-something meat market. Most importantly, you can also focus on the burgers—like the Johnny Cash burger with applewood smoked bacon, cheddar, onion strings and bourbon barbecue sauce. With a thick, juicy patty, the burger itself could’ve benefitted from more of that delicious bourbon sauce and less of the brioche bun—tasters are encouraged to eat the halves separately to find the delightful dollop of garlic under the bun (which, with a big ol’ brioche is easily lost).

The Red always has a strong fry game, so the healthy serving of French favorites that comes with the Johnny Cash provides a perfectly salty addition to a satisfying, but otherwise under-salted, burger. The real winner might be the adventurous sounding Raven Burger with double cream Brie, caramelized apples, arugula and balsamic reduction, but you can only eat so many burgers between deadlines. AMH

HOFFMAN’S BISTRO AND PATISSERIE Whether in the world of burgers or burritos, sometimes we consumers have a choice to make when it comes to toppings: guacamole or fresh avocado? The correct option—nine times out of 10—is avocado, especially because you never know for sure what the status of the guacamole will be.

Is it a brand new batch with freshly squeezed lime? Will it taste instead like it came out of a bargain bin at Safeway? This distinction is one the California burger from Hoffman’s Bistro and Patisserie has going for it: real avocado slices over a few strips of bacon, Jack cheese and two patties.

It comes on a toasted wheat bun, which may not sound adventurous at first, but it sure breaks the mold out of traditional sesame and brioche buns. Let the tourists and college kids go to Five Guys across the street for food doused in peanut oil and high-fructose corn syrup. We’ll be here at Hoffman’s, enjoying life’s finer sandwiches, which also include the Gilroy burger, another item the restaurant is featuring this week. JP

MEATLESS PICKS: Veggie Burgers Reimagined

Our Classic 1/2 Pound Burger With Homemade Guacamole Bacon & Cheddar Cheese Served with our Special Waffle Fries (No substitutions or changes for this special price.)

SANTA CRUZ BURGER WEEK 2017

Worlds away from the frozen aisle at the grocery store, the homemade veggie patties that Santa Cruz restaurants are serving up give new meaning to the very concept. Of the dozens of veggie burgers found on menus around town, no two are even remotely similar. With bases and binders that range from black and garbanzo beans to almond flour to rice to quinoa, coupled with the abundance of possibility that cooking with vegetables provides, the local veggie burger game is an exciting journey of textures, flavor and character. They satiate burgerlevel hunger, while nourishing the body and comforting the soul.

Plus, it’s a lot easier to justify the essential side of fries or a milkshake (or both!) when you go the veggie route. Following are just three of our favorites—be sure to seek these and many other creative iterations out during Santa Cruz Burger Week.

Just outside the limelight of West End’s popular and beloved grassfed, pasture-raised beef patties, which they grind and shape daily, is a vegetarian rendition that blew my mind and tastebuds. While it wasn’t listed on the dinner menu one busy night last week, our server assured us that they do have them at dinner. Just ask. Made in-house daily, this burger is a refreshing blend of garden flavors that doesn’t waste a second trying to imitate meat. The texture is soft, and loaded with body-loving goodness: spinach, carrots, red bell peppers, and zucchini—all finely minced—and bound with quinoa and garbanzo bean flour. Served on a luxurious, freshly baked Challah bun from Gayle’s Bakery, this masterpiece comes with house sauce (hold the sauce to make it vegan), lettuce, tomato, pickled red onions, and a huge pile of fries you will want to share with a friend.

BETTY BURGERS/ BETTY’S EAT INN All-natural (hormone and antibioticfree) beef patties highlight the menu here, but once you try “Tracks in the Grass,” you may never go back.

Betty’s vegetarian burger patty is made in-house from tofu, carrots, green onion, celery, black beans, garbanzo bean flour and egg to bind it all together. It’s crispy on the outside with a soft interior that pops with falafel-reminiscent flavor. In other words, if I hadn’t been told there was tofu in the mix I never would have known. You may want to skip the massive whole wheat bun and go “bareback” with a lettuce wrapping (or ask for the regular old less-healthy white flour bun, which is not quite as large), if only to keep this delicious burger in the spotlight of your palate.

SATURN CAFE

Saturn Cafe has its plant-based burger game dialed. From the creative minds of our favorite spaced-out foodies comes the cornerstone of its adventurous burger menu: the Saturn Patty. Made in-house, it incorporates hearty brown rice, organic black beans and vegetables with almond meal and rice flour, for a winning blend of protein and carbohydrates that also happens to be vegan, soy- and gluten-free.

Shared with a friend last week, the Diablo made for a satisfying lunch.

The patty is dense and chewy, and paired well with just the right amount of spice from jalapeños and pepper jack cheese—though vegan cheese can be substituted—as well as award-winning fries and an awardwinning milkshake menu that rivals any: The selection includes vegan flavors, and all shakes come with a wide, milk-shake-grade straw (which you’ll need for the thick homemade whipped cream that tops it off) and of course, the ultimate act of love—that metal mixer cup that holds all of the milkshake that couldn’t fit in the pretty tall glass. Otherworldly.

ART pictures of the beach or forests of Santa Cruz, we’re making a bolder statement in a setting where people are taking time to enjoy themselves and each other,” says Kelsey Doyle, the exhibit organizer. “Even though it is depressing that these people are going through various climate issues and cultural struggles over land, they’re still pulling through it.”

Milam, Doyle and Katie Sugarman offer a lens into universal stories of strife across three continents—here is just a snippet of what they learned from the communities they visited.

KELSEY DOYLE, 26

KATIE SUGARMAN, 30

For Maasai women living in the Olgulului, Kenya, an already grueling existence has been exacerbated by the country’s worsening drought conditions. “A lot of Maasai all over Kenya and Tanzania have been displaced from traditional tribal lands, and their tribal land is

centered around having a reliable water source,” says Sugarman. “I want people to have an idea of what drought means in their context versus our context, just by the virtue of carrying your own water for a day.”

Between the drought and being forcibly moved away from areas where their cattle can graze, it’s generally up to the Maasai women to pick up the daily slack.

“It’s a very traditional culture, very male-dominated, and they still practice female circumcision and arranged marriage at unthinkably young ages,” says Sugarman.

With an education, says Sugarman, girls can at least wait until they’re a bit older to decide if they want to live as traditional Maasai women or choose a different life.

Sonia Villobos was in tears, screaming when Milam and the team, on assignment for Seeker media network, stepped on Villobos’s land in the Araucanía region of Chile: she did not want them there. The Mapuche had been terrorizing Villobos’s family, she told Milam, sneaking onto her property at night. They fired shots, and threatened their animals and her 90-year-old father—methods that aren’t uncommon for the indigenous Mapuche in their fight for ancestral lands, which have received a forceful reaction from the Chilean government.

There’s a brewing civil war in Araucanía, says Milam. The conflict is rooted in the Chilean government’s brutal seizure of Mapuche lands in the 1800s, which left thousands of indigenous people dead, and was exacerbated by U.S.-backed dictator Augusto Pinochet giving land to lumber companies, in addition to countless atrocities, torture and disappearances of indigenous people under his rule.

“I don’t want to condone behavior on either side. Everyone is a victim on both sides of this situation,” says Milam. “But they want to be seen and have their communities be safe.”

Two years ago, the category 5 Typhoon Maysak—the most powerful preApril tropical cyclone recorded in the Northwestern Pacific Ocean— ravaged the islands of Micronesia.

It destroyed the reefs, the primary food source for the local Ulithian population. Doyle travelled to the islands in the immediate aftermath of the typhoon with the organization One People One Reef, which trains scientists to educate locals in scientific methods for sustainable ocean management.

“It’s revitalizing the community and trailblazing the way that we approach disasters—not just sending in U.S. aid with powdered sunscreen or boxes of sandals—sustaining the way they live in the most traditional way possible, with modern tools and science,” says Doyle.

This is the only way that the population can adapt to the reality of rising sea levels and the certainty of more, larger typhoons in the future, says Doyle.

“Maybe when they hear about some disaster happening in the world because of climate change, they now have a catalogue of that recollection to pull up and say, ‘Oh yeah that happened, that’s real.’

People need to see to believe.”

Gone Girls

The Goodbye Girls bring a modern sensibility—and Swedish folk influences?—to old-time songs BY CAT JOHNSON

‘I

’ve Always Been a Rambler” is a traditional song about a real jackass—a drinking, gambling, womanizing, only son who lives fast and loose and leaves a trail of trouble behind him. That is, until he finds himself smitten by a wealthy farmer’s “tall and handsome daughter.”

The tune then takes a turn from cautionary tale to sob story as the anti-hero of the song courts the farmer’s daughter, falls in love with her, leaves town to continue his ramblin’ ways, can’t forget her, and eventually gets word that she’s married another, which leads to heartache … and more ramblin’. As the last stanza goes: “My heart was

filled with trouble, while trouble’s on my mind / Going to drink and gamble for the one I left behind.”

The song, which is surprisingly uptempo and toe-tap-inducing, has been around since the 19th century. It’s a prime example of the old saying that if you’re not crying or praying, it’s not bluegrass. For American roots band the Goodbye Girls, the song serves as a template for a cross-genre sound that pulls in elements of bluegrass, old-time, jazz and Swedish folk music.

Comprising Swedish fiddler Lena Jonsson, Allison de Groot on clawhammer banjo, Brittany Karlson on bass and Molly Tuttle on guitar

and lead vocals, the Goodbye Girls was formed out of necessity when Jonsson, who was a student at Berklee College of Music in Boston, was asked to perform an American roots music tour of Sweden with fellow Berklee students. Jonsson enlisted de Groot, who knew Tuttle, who was roommates with Karlson. The band came together easily, and the spark of inspiration was there from the start as the artists met weekly to work up songs for the tour.

“It was a strong connection right off the bat,” says Tuttle. “We didn’t have any songs, but we had a whole tour scheduled. We all searched for songs and we all came up with the arrangement together. That’s

how it’s been since the first time we all played together—it’s really collaborative.”

With a name taken from the folk tune “Goodbye Girls, I’m Going to Boston,” the Goodbye Girls all have different musical backgrounds.

Tuttle grew up playing bluegrass, de Groot plays mostly old-time music, Jonsson has roots in traditional Swedish music, which has elements similar to American old-time music—including fiddledriven melodies, but with different musical inflections—and Karlson has a background in jazz. Combined, the artists put a twist on American roots music, with unexpected ornamentation, jazzy improvisations, cross-cultural arrangements and four-part vocals sung in unison.

The women are all ace musicians who bring mastery of their own instruments and styles to the Goodbye Girls. The result is something at-once familiar and fresh—even for a roots music veteran like Tuttle, who is a well-known artist in American roots circles.

“We all come from different areas,” says Tuttle. “We mostly play old-time stuff, but it has a lot of different influences in it. Even though we’re playing old-time songs, you can hear maybe some Swedish influences in Lena’s playing, or a bluegrass style. It’s different from anything else I do.”

The initial Goodbye Girls tour was supposed to be a one-off, but the outfit is still going strong, making numerous trips back to Europe to perform, as well as limited dates in the States. The members make a point of scheduling a handful of Goodbye Girls performances a year—in addition to their other music projects—to keep the band’s momentum and the members’ camaraderie going.

“We’d like to keep trying to push it to a higher level,” says Tuttle.

“It’s so much fun to work up new music together, so we’d really like to keep doing that. I think we all want to keep it going and think about making another album in the next couple years.”

Info: The Goodbye Girls will perform at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, July 25 at Don Quixote’s, 6275 Hwy. 9, Felton. $10/adv, $12/door. 335-2800.

Join Billie Harris in Bookshop Santa Cruz’s outdoor reading series at one of their newly commissioned “artful reading benches.” Designed by local artist Denise Davidson, this bench was dedicated to the city of Santa Cruz at Garfield Park in 2016, with the intent of creating reading spots for children in our local parks. An actress with Shakespeare Santa Cruz and Cabrillo Stage, Harris has lent her soothing voice and theatrical training to memorable storytelling since her weekly morning radio show on KUSP.

It’s the scrappy, flying orphan that we all know and love, but with a twist.

Peter Pamilton has been spending time away from Neverland, visiting the Darling home, where three enlightened sisters tell him stories about freedom and equality. Peter convinces Angelica, Eliza, and Wendy to fly back with him and battle the tyrannical Captain Hook.

LOVE YOUR

LOCAL BAND

SPACE HEATER There’s a little bit of psychedelic rock in local group Space Heater, but mostly it’s a funky dance band. So why is the name about as spacey as you can get?

Well, strapped for a name—they sent more than 400 texts—the members settled for one that bassist Steve Rogers and guitarist Mason Hicks had used years earlier for a totally out-there psych-rock band. Now as a five-piece that also includes Ron Work on guitar, Mike Spooner on percussion, and Joaquin Spengemann on drums, it’s all about making dance music. But there’s still a little bit of experimentation in there.

JULY 19-25, 2017 | GOODTIMES.SC | SANTACRUZ.COM

“We really wanted to keep it funky.

That was definitely number one. But also stretch out and see where the music takes us,” says Rogers.

40

Nowadays, they play bars and private gigs (weddings, funerals, etc.) with a mixture of covers (Maceo Parker, James Brown, Sharon Jones) and some originals.

Recently, they’ve been focusing on writing, and they’ve got more than 30 original songs in their arsenal at this point.

“We record every practice. So a lot of times we’ll find ourselves in a groove.

We’ll go back to it and be, like, ‘let’s turn that into a song,” Rogers says.

“We don’t want to be boxed in as far as any particular style, or tied down to any particular idea. If something takes off, we’ll follow it. If it feels good to keep it funky and straight and danceable, we’ll go with that too. A lot of it’s based on feel.” AARON CARNES INFO: 8 p.m. Friday, July 21.

LEDWARD KAAPANA Ledward Kaapana is as smooth a fingerpicking guitarist as you’ll find.

The Hawaiian slack key master’s casual style and sly sense of humor disarm even the toughest heart. His wicked technicality and mastery of many stringed instruments—resonator ukulele, anyone?—place him in the top few names of contemporary island artists. The recipient of numerous Grammy awards, and a beloved artist who’s known around the world, Kaapana is an ambassador of aloha, friendship, humor and music.

“heartsick dirtbags” may not be your thing, the “solid gold hits” bit is quite enticing when applied to country music. This Santa Cruz-based fourpiece takes on the classics, such as “Frankie and Johnny,” “Travellin’ Blues,” and “Lonesome Whistle,” and delivers them in the no-frills, heartaching style they were meant to be delivered in.

ERIC BURDON AND THE ANIMALS

REGGAE

The ’60s British Invasion brought a whole lot of amazing bands to the States besides just the Beatles and the Rolling Stones. One of the top bands was the Animals, whose foreboding 1964 hit “The House of the Rising Sun” would become a staple on classic rock stations, karaoke bars, and in Guitar Centers all across the country. As times got more psychedelic, the band evolved, billing themselves as Eric Burdon and the Animals. The version of the band playing Santa Cruz will cover all of the group’s classic ’60s hits including “Don’t Bring Me Down,” “We Gotta Get Out of This Place,” “See See Rider,” and of course that one about a house in New Orleans.

KATCHAFIRE For 20 years, the New Zealand act Katchafire has been rocking audiences around the globe with its roots reggae style.

IGUANAS When people say “American roots music,” they should include Chicano musical traditions that have developed here, as many Latin subgenres were literally invented in the U.S. The Iguanas, who hail from New Orleans and formed in 1989, has always been an interesting case. On one hand, it’s a band that draws on the Tex-Mex sounds carved out in the American Southwest. But they’ve always taken a much broader approach to the music. Their last album, Juarez, mixes these Latin elements with R&B,

blues, garage, and swamp rock. It all mixes together quite naturally. AC INFO: 8:30 p.m. Moe’s Alley, 1535 Commercial Way. Santa Cruz. $15/adv, $20/door. 479-1854.

A regular act at “Djangofests” around the world, the John Jorgenson Quintet loosely plays gypsy jazz, but more accurately plays a fiery fusion of Latin, Romanian, classical, rock, jazz and Greek music that has been described as “21st century world music.” The quintet is led by renowned Hellecasters and Desert Rose Band guitarist Jorgenson, who also plays mandolin, mandocello, dobro, pedal steel guitar, piano, upright bass, clarinet, bassoon, and saxophone.

As a whole, the band is a fantastic platform to showcase Jorgenson’s insane guitar chops and visionary compositions. CJ

panders, which formed in 1999 when many of the Sublime copy bands were first hitting the scene, take an entirely different approach. The band goes back to the source—that includes all the Jamaican music in the ’60s and ’70s, with an emphasis on laid-back, light-as-a-feather grooves and sweet spine-tingling harmonies. Their latest, 2015’s Hustling Culture, is a reggae gem that pays tribute to the Jamaican greats that came before them. AC

Blending rock, traditional Malian styles, electronica and blues, Amadou & Mariam is a standout of the world music scene—and one of the more interesting stories around. Guitarist and vocalist Amadou Bagayoko met vocalist Mariam Doumbia back in 1975 at the Malian Institute for the Young Blind in Bamako, where they were both members of the Eclipse Orchestra. They immediately fell in love, and have been making music ever since. Like most acts, the two started out performing locally, but over the years have grown an audience that stretches around the globe. The duo’s sound is broadly described as Afroblues, but it fuses genres, sounds and traditions in unexpected and sublimely danceable ways. CAT JOHNSON

FILM

IT TAKES BRAINS Writer-director George A. Romero was best known for pioneering the modern zombie film with movies like ‘Night of the Living Dead’ and ‘Dawn of the Dead.’ But his favorite of his own films was 1978’s quirky vampire film ‘Martin.’ Romero died Sunday, July 16, at age 77.

JULY 19-25, 2017 | GOODTIMES.SC | SANTACRUZ.COM

Reanimated Legacy

46

All-time great horror director George A. Romero was about more than just zombies BY STEVE PALOPOLI

W

hen I interviewed horror legend George A. Romero several years ago, he had recently been sent a script about the life of Edgar Allan Poe. He had been interested in directing it, and in an attempt to get across to me how Hollywood works—or more accurately, doesn’t work—he explained why he didn’t get the job.

“They said, ‘Well, we think it needs a little rewrite, but we’d love for you to do it. We think you’d be good for it, blah blah,’” Romero told

me. “Every fact in it, about dates and where he lived and everything, it was just completely wrong. I knew a lot of that, and I said, ‘Oh boy, I’ve got this gig sewn up.’ So I called back and pointed a lot of these things out, and they said, ‘Oh, we know that. It’s just not the way we want to go.’”

His sheer head-shaking disbelief at the way that deal didn’t go down was Romero through and through.

When he died Sunday at the age of 77, the horror genre lost not only an iconic writer and director, but also a man who had served as its moral

compass for almost five decades. He had integrity, smarts, loyalty and a strict ethical code. He was an indie filmmaker before indie filmmaking existed, and stuck to making most of his movies in his longtime adopted city of Pittsburgh (he later moved to Toronto), despite the fact that it puzzled and probably infuriated Hollywood execs. He didn’t have a lot of use for them, anyway.

“I guess I just don’t fit in the Hollywood system,” he told me. It was a hell of an understatement, all things considered. The downside of

it was that the movies he didn’t get to make far outnumbered the movies that he did. But the ones he did?

They made it all worth it.

As he is eulogized this week, and hopefully long after, people will focus almost entirely on his zombie movies.

That’s fair enough—he literally invented them. Zombie movies as we know them, with legions of the reanimated dead seeking the brains and/or flesh of the living, simply did not exist before his 1968 classic Night of the Living Dead. He created the most potent movie monster of the modern era, with the mindless undead a metaphoric blank slate onto which audiences and critics could project endless meanings. And they did, right through its sequels, 1978’s Dawn of the Dead, 1985’s Day of the Dead, 2005’s Land of the Dead, 2007’s Diary of the Dead, and 2009’s Survival of the Dead. His scores of zombie imitators and successors stretch from gory exploitation flicks like 1979’s Zombi 2 (better known in the U.S. as Zombie) to later big-budget blockbusters like 28 Days Later and World War Z—not to mention, of course, The Walking Dead.

But none of his zombie flicks were actually his favorite of his own films; that honor fell to a little gem of a vampire movie he made in 1978 called Martin. A raw, violent and eerily realistic look at a young man (played

by Romero regular John Amplas) who thinks he is a vampire, the film nimbly sets up the question of whether he really is one, and then finds ways to turn that question on its head over and over. Martin is still moving, shocking and unique today, and is the perfect example of how strange and wonderful Romero’s filmmaking was, especially early in his career.

“I would say Martin is my favorite,” he told me. “First of all, we really had, as my First Assistant Director would say, ‘gelled as a unit.’ We knew more of what we were doing, and it was terrific. I just loved it. I think that film comes closest of anything that I’ve done to matching what was on the page and what was in my mind when I was putting it on the page.”

While any time is a great time to revisit Romero’s zombie films, the “Godfather of the Dead”’s contributions to the horror genre ran even deeper, and I hope film fans take the time to revisit his other works like Martin, as well.

FILM NEW THIS WEEK

JULY 19-25, 2017 | GOODTIMES.SC | SANTACRUZ.COM

CITY OF GHOSTS To say that the most recent news out of Raqqa, Syria, hasn’t been good would be the understatement of the century—drone footage of civilians trapped in alleyways between government and ISIS forces is enough to make anyone abandon hope in humanity. When I saw the preview for this movie last week, I thought it must be a dramatic rendering of the experiences inside Raqqa, based on dispatches by those who’d made it out. The fact that this is real footage of anonymous activists who are risking their lives, and the lives of everyone they know, to report on the pervading evil of ISIS is chilling. The ordinary citizens, men and women, of the RBSS (Raqqa is Being Slaughtered Silently) group work in secret, reporting on the depredations of the terror organization, using encrypted signals to get footage of their atrocities out to the world, and fighting against their hateful ideology. When it finally ends, it will be in part thanks to them. Matthew Heineman directs. (R) 92 minutes.

48

DUNKIRK They were so close to home, they could almost see it.

More than 340,000 soldiers on the beaches of Dunkirk, France, surrounded by the German army, with little left to expect but certain death. Probably a far-too-real depiction (it’s Christopher Nolan, after all) of how the “colossal military disaster” turned around with the help of merchant marine boats, fishing boats, lifeboats and everything inbetween. Nolan directs. Fionn Whitehead, Kenneth Branagh, Mark Rylance co-star.

(PG-13) 106 minutes.

GIRLS TRIP OK, so Variety’s Peter Debruge was definitely not the right guy to review Girls Trip, but we’re going to try to be slightly less tone deaf moviegoers and say that this movie looks damn funny. (Conjure up the image of Jada Pinkett Smith getting stuck mid-air over a huge crowd in a New Orleans street and explosively peeing all over them. Yes.) Plus, the long-overdue Queen Latifah/

Jada Pinkett Smith reunion! Malcolm D. Lee directs. Regina Hall, Latifah, Pinkett Smith co-star. (R) 122 minutes VALERIAN AND THE CITY OF A THOUSAND PLANETS Two wooden figurines passing off as adolescents are supposed to save the universe. Help us, Bad Girl Ri Ri, you’re our only hope. Luc Besson directs. Dane DeHaan, Cara Delevingne, Clive Owen co-star.

(PG-13) 137 minutes.

SPECIAL SCREENINGS: All’Opera “Manon Lescaut,” 7 p.m., Wednesday, July 26. Del Mar Theatre 1124 Pacific Ave., Santa Cruz.

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.

NOW PLAYING BABY DRIVER A young getaway driver, aka “Young Mozart in a go-cart over there,” wants out. But Kevin Spacey has orchestrated one last bold and brazen heist, and he won’t do it without his man. Too bad it’s doomed to fail. Edgar Wright directs. Ansel Elgort, Spacey, Lily James co-star. (R) 113 minutes.

BEATRIZ AT DINNER Beatriz is a holistic medicine practitioner. Her clients are wealthy and white; she is a Mexican immigrant. When her car breaks down and she can’t get home, Beatriz is invited to dinner … except, she’s not welcome. Miguel Arteta directs. Salma Hayek, John Lithgow, Connie Britton co-star. (R) 83 minutes.

THE BEGUILED What happens when you introduce one wounded Union soldier to a house full of deprived young women in Virginia during the height of the Civil War? Seduction, envy, betrayal, and poisoned apple pie, of course. Sofia Coppola directs. Nicole Kidman, Kirsten Dunst, Elle Fanning co-star.

(R) 93 minutes.

A FEW DEGREES TO THE LEFT AND THAT BACKGROUND IS IN ‘INCEPTION’ The World

War II movie ‘Dunkirk’ is the latest film from director Christopher Nolan.

THE BIG SICK Kumail starts dating Emily and things are going great. Except, Kumail’s family is on a serious quest for Kumail’s future bride—a Pakistani Muslim like him, not a white American girl. With Holly Hunter and Ray Romano as Emily’s disapproving parents and the production genius of Judd Apatow, The Big Sick has been called “the most authentic romantic comedy in years.”

Michael Showalter directs. Kumail Nanjiani, Zoe Kazan, Hunter costar. (R) 119 minutes.

DESPICABLE ME 3 Gru is out of a job, so when his long-lost twin brother appears with a fleet of cars, helicopters and all the money in the world, the lure of one last crime job is too tempting. Eric Guillon, Kyle Balda, Pierre Coffin directs.

Steve Carell, Kristen Wiig, Trey Parker co-star. (PG) 90 minutes.

THE HOUSE Scott and Kate Johansen are thrilled when their daughter Alex gets into her dream college. But then they find out that 401K does not mean they have $400,000, and they have to find another way to make their baby girl’s dreams come true. Naturally, they turn to a life of crime. Andrew Jay Cohen directs. Will Ferrell, Amy Poehler, Jason Mantzoukas co-star.

(R) 88 minutes.

THE JOURNEY Two sworn political enemies, one van. In 2006, during the Northern Ireland peace talks, Martin McGuinness and Ian Paisley are forced together for a very long ride to the talks that would shape the course of the war—everything depended on this car ride. Nick Hamm directs. Timothy Spall, Colm Meaney, John Hurt co-star. (PG-13) 94 minutes.

Stark made him the suit, so now he’s got to live up to the legacy.

But after stopping bike thieves and helping grandmas out around the neighborhoods, little Spider Man might’ve gotten himself into a situation that might prove too big for his britches. Jon Watts directs.

Tom Holland, Michael Keaton, Robert Downey Jr. co-star. (PG-13) 133 minutes.

THE LITTLE HOURS Abusive language, lustfulness, homosexuality, drugs‚ apostasy, eating blood—this isn’t your average nunnery. Headed by Alison Brie, Kate Micucci and Aubrey Plaza, this tale of nuns gone bad has been called “pure trash” by the Catholic League. Jeff Baena directs. Dave Franco co-stars. (R) 90 minutes.

TRANSFORMERS: THE LAST KNIGHT They kept the legend hidden for a thousand years to protect Earth. Now, redemption will be sought—or something like that. More importantly, though, is Michael Bay bae? Bay directs.

Bay directs. Mark Wahlberg, Josh Duhamel, Stanley Tucci co-star.

(PG-13) 150 minutes.

MAUDIE When an arthritic Nova Scotia woman is forced to find a new home and a job, she finds her way to the town’s resident grump and becomes a housekeeper, honing her skills as an artist.

Sally Hawkins, Ethan Hawke, Kari Matchett co-star. (PG13) 115 minutes.

FOOD & DRINK 12:36 p.m.: I only waited about five minutes between ordering my broccoli and salsiccia pizza ($16) at Pizzeria La Bufala and folding a slice in my hand. The ceramic wood-fired oven bubbled and browned the crust to chewy perfection, and managed to hold up a substantial amount of toppings. The broccoli could have been crispier, but the dough is fragrant and the mozzarella gooey but not gluey. The large, thin-crust pie is plenty for two people, and next time I may choose a single slice for $5.

T

he much-anticipated Abbott Square Market held its soft opening on July 7 during First Friday.

Any doubts about whether this pod-style food court would catch on should be allayed by the size of the crowd that came to check out the most exciting and dramatic addition to downtown Santa Cruz in recent memory.

Although only five out of a future eight restaurants and bars are currently open, it’s already become a popular spot to meet fellow downtowners for lunch or grab a drink after work at one of two bars.

Already open are Pizzeria La Bufala, an Italian-owned Neapolitan-style pizza restaurant; Veg on the Edge, a

vegetarian, health-focused kitchen with African-influenced dishes; Cat. Cloud.Companion, a coffeehouse and bakery collaboration between Cat & Cloud Coffee and Companion Bakeshop; Front & Cooper, a craft beer and wine bar with 12 wine and beers on tap, and Cooper & Front, a cocktail bar. A restaurant selling oysters and lobster rolls, a poke bar, and an artisan popsicle stand have yet to open.

Located on the first floor of the Museum of Art and History, two rollup doors open from the food court to the spacious patio. There’s plenty of seating at multiple four-tops, and three long, wooden community tables under large suspended umbrellas, which cast a generous

amount of shade. The bright space would benefit from a few planter boxes and additional bike parking closer to the dining area. The strong fan in the doorway between the food court and the patio blew most of the cilantro off of my stir fry—keep your napkins in hand if you don’t want to chase them.

Here’s a snapshot of my recent day at the Abbott Square Market: 8:45 a.m.: Cat & Cloud’s house roast “The Answer” has become one of my local favorites since they opened last year, and their custom ceramic cups elevate a simple iced coffee ($3) to something really special.

Companion’s brown butter cornbread with Padrón pepper and honey butter ($3.50) blew me away.

6:25 p.m.: After my indulgent lunch, I looked forward to my Shiitake Fried Rice ($12.50) from Veg on the Edge, and overall it was really tasty. The jet black forbidden rice was nutty and there were plenty of fragrant shiitakes. I think it could have used a little more chard or some tofu to boost it up. The salad with organic greens, crunchy Asian pears and mustardy vinaigrette was delicious, as were the three little potato croquettes. The side of fried plantains ($3.50) could have been a little more caramelized, but were a nice, sweet companion to the dish.

7:15 p.m.: Renowned mixologist Kate Gerwin has created an extensive list of enticing libations, including eight on tap, seven signature, five twists on classics and six different gin and tonics, and projects them on the wall of Front & Cooper. My “Cereal Killa” ($10), a Cinnamon-Toast-Crunchinfused rum punch with pineapple juice, comes with an actual tiny cone of the namesake cereal, and tastes like the milk at the bottom of the bowl grew up, married rich, and now hangs out on a yacht taking Instagram selfies with Rihanna.

The “Not So Oldfashioned” ($12) is peaty, beautifully balanced with a sweet kiss of ripe plum, and the “Tiki Tacky” ($11) is smoky with Mezcal and bright with guava and mango.

The whole wrought-iron scene is exceptionally cool, with leatherbound bar stools and butcher-block cocktail tables.

Twig’s Tony and Alba’s owner debuts rolled ice cream in Santa Cruz BY AARON CARNES

JULY 19-25, 2017 | GOODTIMES.SC | SANTACRUZ.COM

aybe you’ve seen it: Ice cream that appears to have been cooked on a griddle like pancakes, but is actually frozen. Once it hardens, it’s rolled up and served with toppings. It’s sweeping the U.S., but it originated with street vendors in Thailand. Now Santa Cruz has rolled ice cream, courtesy of Dave Terwilleger, owner of Tony and Alba’s Pizza and Pasta. Currently, you can only buy his brand, called Twig’s Rolled Ice Cream, at his Soquel Avenue restaurant. But eventually it might go beyond that.

How’d you get involved with Thai

rolled ice cream?

DAVE TERWILLEGER: My dad had an ice cream manufacturing plant in New Jersey, and I grew up in that plant. He would always win national awards for best vanilla and best chocolate in the United States. I’ve been looking for a product that was really top notch in terms of taste and quality. What we do is combine basic ingredients—cream, milk, sugar, sea salt and eggs—and then we create up to three bases. There’s a vanilla, coffee, and salted caramel

base. We pour that on a pan that’s 25 degrees below zero, add cookies or candy or fruits, syrups, mix it all up, and then we roll it, put it in a cup, and then you can add up to 20 different toppings after that.

That includes fruit and cereals and whatnot. I’ve Americanized it. They were doing green tea and stuff like that. I like banana split, s’mores, Oreos, peanut butter pie, mud pie, that kind of stuff. Or you can roll your own and pick anything you want. It’s more of a custard taste than some ice creams. When you put eggs in it, it makes it thicker and creamier, like a custard. When it first comes off the pan, it’s very cold, so it tastes colder than normal ice cream. You don’t get as much of the flavor until you let it sit for a minute or two.

You sell it at Tony and Alba’s, but it has its own product name?

My dad’s nickname was Twig. I named it after him. I’m going to roll it out into standalone ice cream shops, [but] I thought we better test-market it inside Tony and Alba’s.

eel like partying on a Friday night? Then head to Stockwell Cellars. Not only does the expansive tasting room offer wellmade wines, but they also feature music most Fridays—a fun way to start the weekend. From 5 p.m. on July 21 there will be Music in the Cellar with Toby Gray.

So, what I’d recommend on a warm summer’s afternoon is a nice glass of Stockwell’s 2015 Sauvignon Blanc while taking in some good music. Grapes for this crisp wine are sourced from Riverstar Vineyards in Paso Robles and turned into a fruity libation with “hints of lemongrass, pink peppercorns and kiwi on the nose.” It comes with “mouthwatering expressions of lemon meringue, white pluot and clementine,” says winemaker Eric Stockwell, “with a finish of marzipan, chalk dust and pear skin.”

The finish of marzipan is subtle, but adds depth to this superstar wine. Try it with ceviche or oysters for a delicious pairing. This Sauvignon Blanc ($24) is also a perfect picnic wine as it comes with a screw-cap top.

Eric and his partner Suzanne Zeber-Stockwell, along with Eric’s daughter Jessica Stockwell, will give

UNIQUE ORIGINAL MERMAID DESIGNS

WATSONVILLE

H RISA’S STARS BY RISA D’ANGELES AMIDST THE LION’S ROAR Thursday is very complex this week with many planetary collaborations. What are they? Moon in Gemini (this and that, up and down, here and there), Mars enters Leo, Venus/Pluto, Sun/Uranus and Sun/Chiron. Potent, changing and difficult interactions.

The focus this week is fiery Leo. Sun joins Mars in Leo Saturday morning and Leo New Moon, Sunday (0.44 degrees). At New Moon times, the New Group of World Servers (NGWS) supports and upholds the hands, arms and endeavors of the women and men of Goodwill everywhere.

The fifth Gate (Leo, opposite Aquarius) opens as Sun enters Leo. The fifth Labor begins. It’s a difficult, and, at times, rather dreadful labor, and we must be prepared. Let us keep watch over each other, even though our hearts may be questioning.

During the Leo labor, “We burnish bright our shields and feel our courage strong.

Amidst the lion’s roar, we venture forth. Knowing we must create a brave new Aquarian world.

Together.”

Monday Venus opposes Saturn. We might not know the location or value of our money, resources or relationships. We might feel somewhat lost, over “there” somewhere, not knowing we have the means to return home again.

Tuesday evening, Mercury enters Virgo.

Thinking becomes detailed, our speech clear and bright. We quietly hold new ideas in our hearts. Ideas that seed, nurture and build the “brave new Aquarian world.”

ARIES Mar21–Apr20

LIBRA Sep23–Oct22

In the days to come, with Sun, Mars, North Node and Mercury in Leo, your deepest creativity comes forth. You must be awake, aware, sensitive and silent to recognize it. The Sun reveals your temperament, characteristics and reasons of why you are in this particular life and incarnation. It will highlight all gifts from previous lives.

These gifts you are remembering in this lifetime. They point out your path to the stars.

You are the bright shining star with friends, family and work groups. Everyone appreciates your courage, flair, beauty and generosity. You share everything you have with everyone. Sometimes, though, you want to hide away. Sometimes you’re tired. There are internal places to explore still unknown to you. These are your shadows.

Each of us enters our shadow self. It becomes healing. Is there someone you don’t share your starry light with?

TAURUS Apr21–May21

SCORPIO Oct23–Nov21

It will be impressed upon your mind that you are a deeply creative person. One gradually begins to have confidence in themselves when their creativity emerges. You begin to express yourself in new ways. They affect your home life. There is much in the home that needs clearing, ordering and tending. Deep within, when your gifts and abilities are recognized, you are happy. Then you know you are loved. Be playful and have fun at home.

Scorpios are warrior disciples. They are always triumphant. Even when it seems a failure, it isn’t. Deeply individual, you build a strong courageous personality.

Later, awareness of purpose and serving humanity appears. Often people think you’re hiding when you’re simply pondering life’s mysteries, which you undertake, one after another. You shoulder great responsibility so that others can move toward the light.

GEMINI May 22–June 20

SAGITTARIUS Nov22–Dec20

It’s good to speak quietly and compassionately. These allow you authority and authenticity. Perhaps you speak quickly, any words will do, as long as you make people laugh and they don’t cling to you. You must be free like a bird in a meadow. Personal power and courage emerge when you speak from the heart. It’s important to identify and articulate always what and how you feel. You become a light in the world when you speak.

You sometimes throw caution to the winds. You also sometimes hide your star, letting others shine in their own light. You aren’t happy with anything less than the very best of everything. You bring warmth, personality, style, élan, a buzz wherever you are. You look away sometimes from what others see. You look toward your destiny. You shine a light on it. You walk toward it. It waits patiently.

Esoteric Astrology as news for week of July 19, 2017

CANCER Jun21–Jul20

LE0 Jul21–Aug22 You have the ability to bring the heart of the Sun (Love/ Wisdom), into your heart, radiating the light outward to the world. You have the ability to create warmth in others and to all of the kingdoms. Many people feel cold and dispossessed in their lives. You are to understand that you carry the golden warming light of the Sun. Often, unaware, you hide yourself in that light. You must instead radiate that light. Leos are the Sun!

VIRGO Aug23–Sep22 As the Sun illumines your 12th house it will ask you to dissolve all separative thoughts, feelings, words and actions. Imagine dissolving them into a universal loving matrix. Then your aspirations can be recognized by the Soul. The Soul cannot direct unkind, cruel, judgmental or critical personalities. These are separative behaviors.

The Soul’s light is Love/Wisdom. When you see others creating separations, direct to them your Soul’s light.

CAPRICORN Dec21–Jan20 There’s an unspoken energy around you that brings attention to your happiness and creativity. There’s a bit of mystery about you, too, that no one understands.

You maintain your dignity in all situations. You know the difference between people who love you and people who … (you fill in the blank). You have a childlike way of loving and are hurt when others are cruel. Keep your trust intact. Help others laugh more. The issues this month will be on shared resources. You always share.

AQUARIUS Jan21–Feb18 It seems to be time for an interlude, linking you to nothing and nowhere, just for a bit of time, so that you can come to a state of balance as to who you are, where you are, why, and what further choices you must make in, and for, the future. You must, as you stand in balance, attempt to hold all opposing forces in check. This tension creates a greater awareness concerning your gifts in service to humanity. In the tension is also direction.

PISCES Feb19–Mar20 You need someone who understands and listens to you, someone who shares your hopes, wishes and dreams, someone who hears your heartbeat and knows all that you say contains a message. You need environments that bring forth playfulness, beauty, intelligence and balance. Chemical reactions between two substances transforms both. If only one is transformed, then only one is singing. Create your Vesta box.

Who or what first got you you shopping at Shopper’s? When I was a little girl, my parents brought me here. I loved it! I remember the butchers giving us hot dogs! — now it’s candy.

Shopper’s was always fun and the people have always been nice. I like Shopper’s wooden floors and the layout’s perfect. They compact so much good stuff into a small space—you’re not hiking around for 45 minutes! It’s also not boring; you’re always finding something new. If I’m making a special recipe with unique ingredients, Shopper’s will have what I need. I appreciate them not changing things around. I could come in blindfolded and still know where to find things.

What do you like to cook? I like to cook every day. It could be fresh fish (love the butcher shop!) and salads, or if I’m entertaining, I might do Italian, Mexican, Thai, or a continental theme.

Shopper’s has a lot of unique items such as dried pasta in a tube ( from Italy) and many other varieties, including, fresh-locally made pasta and a good selection of Asian noodles. They seem to have everything I need such as lemon grass for my Thai food, great herbs and spices, plus fantastic olive oil and amazing vinegars. Oh, and the best chocolates for baking and eating!

Shopper’s has an awesome wine department. And they’ll also gift-wrap your wine. Great service!

Do you think Shopper’s being locally-owned makes a difference? Yes, it makes a big difference. Shopper’s is good to their employees and it makes like a family. My daughter Kylie worked here — it was her first job! She never wanted to work elsewhere. I grew up here and want to support local businesses. Shopper’s carries fresh local organic produce, all the great breads, eggs, and so many other Santa Cruz countywide products which I shop for.

Shopper’s has been here for so long. It’s like a beacon to the community, like an anchor. This is it! Shopper’s is always fun: I see lots of people I know and even get hugs from the butchers!
