“LOL.” I've actually never seen the living embodiment of the acronym. Sure, I've witnessed people rolling on the ground in hysterics over you-had-to-be-there stories. Shit, I've been guilty of blowing fizzy soda pop out of my nostrils after a well crafted boffola.

But what I saw a few weeks ago was laughing out loud, emphasis on the “LOUD!” I was at a stand-up comedy show where laughs should be plentifully supplied, but it seemed that one person was hogging all the air in the room. Kudos to the woman who laughed so loud that no one else felt they could compete. So, we all stayed silent as she represented us all in crowd response. It was as if the audience was a ventriloquist and this lady was the dummy. And not just after every punch line, but from every set-up, every side comment, every simple audience interaction … even when the comedian paused to wipe sweat from his forehead with a towel, all you heard was a hyena cackle from the front right of the room. Jeez, lady.

Save some laughter for the rest of us! How about a two-laugh maximum to go with your two-drink minimum?

As San Jose’s elected leaders quibble about equity in the city’s budget, another test of their fidelity to the principle is on the horizon with the next person they appoint to the currently all-white Planning Commission.

When the City Council in April bypassed Latino candidates ROLANDO BONILLA and AIMEE ESCOBAR to replace ADA MARQUEZ, a woman of color, with former Councilman PIERLUIGI OLIVERIO, it brought the commission’s homogeneity in stark relief. The lack of Don’t ethnic and geographic forget variety on a board that to tip! represents one of the most diverse cities on FLY@ this side of eternity METRONEWS. made some of the white COM commissioners—most notably PETER ALLEN and SHILOH BALLARD —a tad self-conscious about the biases that might’ve swayed the councilors who appointed them.

Of the seven seats, six are now repped by white folks and four by people who live about a mile or so away from one another in District 6. A month later, the only other ethnic minority on the influential commission, NAMRATA VORA , announced her resignation, which prompted Voler Strategic Advisors spokesman Bonilla and Santa Clara County planning commissioner Escobar to reapply.

While the council’s centrists and progressives alike joined a call to expand the commission to 11 seats, limit the number of reps per district to just two and prohibit lobbyists registered within the past two years from applying, those changes probably won’t take effect before the next appointment comes up for a vote. That means it’ll be up to the council to make good on its stated commitment to diversity.

In a way, though, officials who promised to reform the commission are already falling short by making no apparent effort to publicize the vacancy to under-represented people and places in San Jose. No official notice even went to the most recent contenders from any of the council offices or City Clerk TONI TABER .

VAX POPULI Lawmakers debate ways to reverse California’s declining vaccination rates.

As Vaccination Rates Fall, Medical Exemptions Rise

BY JENNIFER WADSWORTH On March 4, 2018, a 15-year-old boy returned to Silicon Valley from a trip to Europe with a fever, cough, rash and other symptoms of measles. Over the ensuing four weeks, the virus spread to six others, including siblings, classmates and fellow Boy Scout members.

Santa Clara County public health officials traced hundreds of contacts in 10 California counties and Nevada from those seven local patients, six of whom lacked immunity because of parents who chose not to vaccinate them during childhood. Of the uninoculated, two—a 7-year-old boy and his 4-year-old brother—were granted identically broad medical exemptions by the same doctor hundreds of miles from home despite having no underlying health issues

that would make them ineligible for immunization.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), which labeled them patients “F” and “G” in a recent study on the outbreak, pointed to the pair as a bellwether of a troubling trend. That is, California’s vaccination rates continue to slip as medical exemptions rise.

A few years ago, in response to a measles outbreak that began in Disneyland, California enacted Senate Bill 277, which banned parents from opting out of legally mandated vaccines based on personal beliefs. The good news: it worked. The rate of families citing personal beliefs to skip vaccines went from 2.4 percent to zero. However, the years since have seen a steady rise

in the number of medical exemptions, which are usually granted to children with serious health conditions such as immune system disorders.

Before SB 277 became law in 2016, just about 0.2 percent of students statewide got a permanent medical exemption. Since the personal belief standard was nixed, the physiciangranted exemptions have more than tripled to 0.9 percent this past school year, according to new data from the California Department of Public Health.

Last fall, 94.8 percent of California kindergartners received all their shots, a drop from 95.6 percent in the prior school year. That may seem inconsequential, but it brings the state below the 95 percent 10 threshold the CDC considers

necessary to prevent outbreaks through herd immunity. The figures also vary wildly by ZIP code, ranging from less than 20 percent in one Los Angeles suburb to 99 percent in the Santa Cruz County farm town of Watsonville. In Santa Clara County, the rate safely rests at 97.3 percent.

But no community exists in a silo. And the upward trending medical-exemption rates fuel fears that some doctors are contributing to immunity gaps by giving parents a loophole to skirt the state’s strict vaccination standards.

California lawmakers have responded by advancing a bill that would tighten up rules for clinician-granted exemptions. Under SB 276, authored by pediatrician-turned-state Sen. Richard Pan (D-Sacramento), public health officials would deem whether the underlying health condition cited by a doctor in a vaccination exemption meets federal standards.

State health authorities estimate that the law would disqualify as much as 40 percent of the 11,500 exemption requests doctors field each year in California.

That’s welcome news to public health

Debt Burden in Silicon Valley

BY THE NUMBERS

137

A recent study of debt burden in California showed that people who live in the most populous cities in the state carry the least debt. In a two-month analysis of its customers from 165 cities, credit monitoring service LendingTree found that San Jose ranked 137th in terms of median non-mortgage debt. The city with the least debt is nearby Santa Cruz, where the median non-mortgage debt among residents came to $8,563.

officials as they grapple with what the CDC calls one of the worst years for U.S. measles cases in a quarter-century.

By April 2019, officials confirmed 40 measles cases in California—four of which traced to Santa Clara County.

Nationally, by the same time this year, at least 704 cases had been documented in 22 states, marking the largest number of cases reported since the disease was all but wiped out in 2000.

In a letter endorsing SB 276, Santa Clara County Executive Jeff Smith said the stakes are too high to let this bill die. “Without reshaping California's process to require state-level public health approval of all medical exemptions, like the provisions set forth in SB 276, we risk continuing to see the number of cases and outbreaks rise and leaving individuals who are too young to be vaccinated, or who have a medical condition that prevents them from being vaccinated, vulnerable,” he wrote. “We also risk losing the community immunity we've built thus far and which we continue to build that keeps all our residents safe and healthy.”

After Santa Cruz, the next three least debt-ridden cities are San Jose’s Silicon Valley neighbors, with Cupertino’s median non-mortgage debt pegged at $10,049, Milpitas’ at $10,563 and

San Mateo’s at $11,003. Sunnyvale’s figure came to $11,538 and Palo Alto’s, $13,275.

$10,049

Nearly 85 percent of California workers take their cars to work. Some 76 percent of them drive alone. And only 2.6 percent take public transportation. So it’s no surprise that auto loans comprise the single-largest credit line for the average resident in 84 percent of California cities.

MODEL RELATIONSHIP The Peach Boy statue is a somewhat hidden reminder of San Jose’s Sister City relationship with Okayama.

Peachy Keen San Jose and Okayama, Japan, have been international Sister Cities for six decades

BY GARY SINGH

T

UCKED AWAY behind the San Jose Center for Performing Arts, right at the edge of the Guadalupe River, the Peach Boy remains somewhat hidden underneath the bushes. The statue of Momotaro, a hero of Japanese folklore, was gifted to San Jose by the city of Okayama in 1993. Upon a recent visit, the statue was cluttered with a few cobwebs, but it still retained an austere mythological status.

Just as the statue is off the radar for most people, so are the myriad activities of San Jose Okayama Sister Cities (SJOSC), a local non-profit group of volunteers. At any given time, SJOSC orchestrates a matrix of initiatives to enhance human connections between the two cities. In particular, last year five high school kids from San Jose traveled to Okayama with a chaperone and stayed with a host family during a citywide program where children from 80 different international cities all exchanged students with Japan.

The San Jose kids returned with their perceptions shattered.

“They came back and they said,

‘Japan is so clean. Everything is clean.

There’s no litter, there’s no trash cans,’” explained SJOSC President Kathy Sakamoto over coffee at Roy’s Station, adding that one girl took ketchup packets with her because she didn’t know if they would be available in Japan. “But ketchup is a flavor in Japan,” Sakamoto said. “So little kids love ketchup-flavored spaghetti.”

Now Okayama wants to return the favor and bring eight kids to San Jose. SJOSC is currently looking for host families and/or funds to support the exchange. Sakamoto says it’s a great way to understand what other countries are doing and how America is perceived elsewhere.

Such a program is why Sister Cities International began in 1956. Following President Eisenhower’s Conference on Citizen Diplomacy, Ike met with leaders from many fields and came up with a new initiative to engage private citizens in international diplomacy, the idea being that face-to-face, person-to-person contact between individuals of different countries, in non-governmental situations, can help

advance the cause of peace, slowly, one person at a time.

San Jose established a rapport with Okayama one year later, in 1957, making it the third oldest Sister City relationship in the US. By now, over 500 communities maintain over 2,000 partnerships in more than 140 countries. San Jose’s other sister cities include Dublin, Ireland; Veracruz, Mexico; Tainan, Taiwan; Pune, India; Ekaterinburg, Russia, San Jose, Costa Rica; and most recently, Guadalajara, Mexico.

The San Jose Okayama relationship is a huge one, much more elaborate than smiling politicians trading handshakes and photo ops. The Japanese Friendship Garden in Kelley Park, for example, is modeled after the Korakuen Garden on the grounds of Okayama Castle, a landscape originally built in 1687. When San Jose built the garden, the Okayama city government even sent the original koi fish. After the 2017 floods wrecked part of the garden and sent the fish sprawling into the bushes and sidewalks, a volunteer effort was launched to restore the facility, an effort still ongoing, and another one always in need of sponsors and support.

To cite another example, 2007 was the 50th anniversary of the San Jose Okayama relationship, so a delegation of 300 Japanese flew to San Jose in a 747, before the airport was fully remodeled.

The plane was able to land, but at the end of the delegation’s visit, a 747 with 300 people was too heavy to take off from SJC’s runway. So the pilots had to fly the empty plane from San Jose to San Francisco and the entire 300-person delegation was then bused up 101 to board the plane at SFO. Nowadays SJC is much more accommodating.

In 2017, a smaller delegation of just over 100 people likewise visited San Jose for the 60th anniversary. They attended City Hall events and toured the area, just to learn more about San Jose. All of which exemplifies what Sister Cities are about: teaching citizens about other countries.

“We want this to continue because we’re just on this little planet, all of us, and we can get better,” Sakamoto told me. “We can live longer. We can improve everybody’s lives if we are open, and we can continue relationships that are people-to-people relationships.” sanjoseokayamasistercities.com

OPENING NIGHT Frost Amphitheater marked the completion of its renovation with a performance, left, by R&B artists Kali Uchis and Jorja Smith at the 2019 Frost Music & Arts Festival.

LITTLE AFTER 2pm on Oct. 10, 1982, Bill Graham took to the stage at Stanford’s Frost Amphitheater. Standing before nearly 10,000 people, the legendary Bay Area music promoter had a few housekeeping items to address.

“They never used to let anyone right in the front,” Graham can be heard saying on a recording of the night. “But you’re a different species, and we’ve convinced them that you can take care of the steps here. Be careful as you’re boogieing about.”

The second item: “Over the years we’ve had problems here of people climbing up the trees,”

he says, before adding, diplomatically, “We don’t want any accidents.

“The Haight Ashbury Clinic is in the corner there. Watch what you eat, watch what you drink, have a good time.”

Within a minute of leaving the stage, Bay Area music history happened. The Grateful Dead played for roughly four hours that day, capping their first residency at Frost.

Diehard fans consider that day’s set their strongest of the decade. Nearly three hours into the music, the sun set over the dense canopy of oaks, bays, sycamores and spruces, and the band played on.

Throughout the ’80s, the Dead would play another 12 shows at Frost.

Though the Deadicated consider

these shows among some of the band’s most legendary—and while the Frost bootleg tapes are some of the most popular in the band’s sprawling canon of live sets—it’s clear that Stanford administrators had differing opinions. After the Dead’s final set in 1989, Stanford let the amphitheater lapse into a dormant state for almost 30 years.

The Frost Amphitheater reopened in May, finally becoming the fullfledged venue it was always prepared to be. True to history, Grateful Dead tribute band Joe Russo’s Almost Dead is even playing one of the inaugural concerts.

But there’s a catch. Goldenvoice, the production company responsible for booking Frost’s pop music

events—has been accused of anticompetitive practices by industry insiders and has drawn criticism over its owner’s political affiliations.

LONG STRANGE TRIP Highlighting a series of new sites on campus, the 1937 volume of Stanford Quad, Stanford’s yearbook, describes the Frost Amphitheater.

“Behind the theater is the new amphitheater, which can use the facilities of the theater for productions in the open air,” it states. “Though the class of 1937 will graduate in it, the planting and growth of trees will not be completed for 50 years.”

bent and was deeply skeptical of taking a government handout, but two years after losing the matching donation, Stanford had no choice but to accept funding from California’s State Emergency Relief Administration.

Throughout this period of turmoil, John Laurence Frost studied economics at the school. On track to graduate in 1935, he passed away due to complications from polio either shortly before or shortly after graduation (reports on this topic vary depending on the source). In order to honor their son, the Frosts donated $90,000 to the school (about $1.6 million today), for the purpose of dedicating a space “for the spiritual and cultural advancement of Stanford students.”

“The idea initially was to create

another outdoor arts venue on campus,” says Stanford Live director Chris Lorway. “In the early years there was a whole series of university ensembles using the space.”

In the decades that followed, concerts were intermittent, often punctuated by heavyweights in jazz and R&B. In the middle of the century, Louis Armstrong, Ella Fitzgerald, Ray Charles and Miles Davis played Frost.

During the ’60s, the amphitheater served as the venue for a small arts festival started by a faculty member.

Shortly thereafter, Stanford decided to spread its arts program over the course of the year, and focus more on fine arts. It was this very decision that led to founding of Stanford Live— originally named Lively Arts.

Through the ’70s, events at Frost continued on an occasional basis.

Then came the Dead.

“I think the university administration put a bit of a pause on things, because with the Grateful Dead came a certain culture that wasn’t necessarily aligned at the time with the mission and values of the university,” says Lorway.

That “certain culture” was, of course, what remained of the hippie movement: the dreamers, vagabonds, traveling merchants and psychonauts for whom the Dead were standard bearers. After realizing that shows attracted these audiences, Lorway says the school became extremely selective about their live acts—to the point of inactivity.

“They kind of had a period of

20 acres and rises more than 50 vertical feet from the stage to the back row. Designed by landscape architect Leslie Kiler, construction of the Frost included the shipment of more than 500 trees, all of which were interwoven around the venue’s perimeter, creating the feel of a dense forest, a likely influence for Graham’s tree plantings at Shoreline Amphitheatre.

Plans had already begun back in 1909. But in the 20th Century’s early years, Stanford, like many universities, experienced money problems. The first World War hit, quickly followed by the Great Depression. Then, in 1932, the school lost out on almost $3.25 million in matching donations from the Rockefeller Foundation.

Chris Lorway stepped in as executive director at Stanford Live in 2016. When plans to reopen Frost began, it quickly became clear that the operation would be too big to run in-house.

“We knew that in order to make our business model work, we were going to need to do some larger-scale shows in the space,” he says. Indeed, the venue boasts a number of big name acts this season, including Odesza (Jul. 17-18), Lionel Richie (Aug. 24) and The National (Sep. 1).

“These days the only way to get access to top talent in the market is to work with a major promoter.”

In the area, there were already three major promoters at work: Live Nation, Goldenvoice and Another Planet Entertainment. In order to find the right promoter for their venue, Stanford Live put out a request for proposal.

“We invited all three of the majors to put together a proposal,” Lorway says. “And we had a committee that we had to put together, some Stanford staff and some external consultants. And we just came, at the end of that process, to find that Goldenvoice made the most sense for us.”

While Lorway describes the deal matter-of-factly, one candidate found the process questionable.

“It was a charade,” says Another Planet Entertainment founder Gregg Perloff. (Live Nation declined to comment for this story.)

Of the three promoters under consideration, Another Planet Entertainment (APE) is the only true local. Independently run since 2003, the promoter books venues in San Francisco, Oakland, Berkeley and Tahoe.

Normally adverse to interviews, Perloff decided to go on record for this story because of some particular concerns about the Stanford RFP process.

“In no way do I have any issue with Goldenvoice being awarded the contract,” he says repeatedly throughout our conversation. “My issue is with the process. It was a very flawed process.”

For Bay Area promoters, Frost

occupies crucial territory. In terms of capacity, it sits between the Mountain Winery (2,500), and the Shoreline Amphitheatre (22,500).

Geographically, it is to the north of both, making it a draw for both Peninsula suburbs and cities. It’s a bid any promoter would be excited to land. So when Perloff received the RFP, he went to work on his proposal. But, he says, there were red flags almost immediately.

“From day one, there were rumors that it was always going to go to Goldenvoice,” he says. “I don’t usually pay any attention to rumors, but those rumors were out there. We’re a very small industry, and people talk.”

In addition to rumors, Perloff says Stanford requested inordinate amounts of detail in proposals, but remained unavailable for questions.

“Usually when you are in the process of bidding for things, there is somebody who will speak to questions that you have,” he says.

“But Chris Lorway was absolutely unavailable for any kind of questions, phone calls, etc. He made himself particularly unavailable. The only time that he became available was on the day of a walkthrough.”

One of the items Perloff wanted clarification on was an eyebrowraising line in the RFP, a line that, in the 15 years of running Another Planet Entertainment, he had never seen before. It stated that “under no circumstances” were bidders to have any contact with Stanford employees during the bid process, “except in the context of Stanfordinitiated discussions.” Perloff perceived this as a safety measure, protecting both parties against any chance someone would claim the deck had been stacked.

“It was kind of like, ‘Don’t try to leverage your relationships at Stanford; don’t try to talk to anybody,’” he says.

Despite rumors, a lack of communication and the concerning condition in the RFP, Perloff spent several months developing a proposal.

Then, when showed up to deliver it to the panel, one of the decision makers, he alleges, slept through most of the presentation.

“I know I’m not going to win any points by saying that,” Perloff says, “but that’s what happened.”

GOLDEN CHILD Tonje Thilesen

The name Goldenvoice may not immediately ring a bell for those outside the music business.

However, most music fans know of Coachella—which is put on by Goldenvoice’s parent, AEG. In January 2017, an anti-Coachella movement began to take off online, following reports about AEG owner Phil Anschutz’s political donations.

“Coachella owner Phil Anschutz is an anti-gay GOP supporter and climate [change] denier,” read an Afropunk headline. The Daily Beast soon followed with an article titled, “Your Coachella Money Is Going to a Right-Wing Billionaire Who Funded Anti-LGBT and AntiMarijuana Causes.”

The headlines were not unfounded.

Among the many anti-LGBTQ groups to receive donations from Anschutz, one in particular stood out: the Family Research Council, recognized as an “extremist group” by the Southern Poverty Law Center.

When pressed for comment, Lorway was quick to dismiss the issue.

“From what I understand, this seems to be a story that seems to have been written five to seven years ago,” he says. “His foundation made some gifts to an anti-LGBT organization, but he has since clarified, and there’s been no future stories.”

Anschutz issued a statement distancing himself from “antiLGBTQ initiatives” and last year donated $1 million to support the Elton John AIDS Foundation LGBT

Fund. In 2018, Anschutz and his various entities also donated more than $348,000 to Republican state committees, conservative PACs and individual Republican politicians.

Included in the recipients’ list were Georgia Sen. David Perdue, an active supporter of Trump’s transgender military ban, and Colorado Sen. Scott Tipton, described in Colorado’s Durango Herald as “a proven enemy of LGBTQ rights.”

“While he’s still donating to conservative causes and candidates, he’s not boosting organizations that openly describe homosexuality as a ‘Satanic perversion,’ like he used to,” the entertainment site MXDWN reported in January.

The heir to a large oil and gas empire, Anschutz is a close friend of President Trump appointee Neil Gorsuch. In 2004, Gorsuch helped Anschutz drain $368 million out of Regal Cinemas, a company whose stock was a primary source of funds for the Teachers’ Retirement System of Louisiana. Two years later, Anschultz wrote to George W. Bush, imploring the Republican president to put his

friend on the 10th Circuit Court of Appeals. It was there that Gorsuch was presiding when he was tapped by Trump for the Supreme Court.

Though Stanford Live was blasé on the subject, the school’s student body was vocally opposed to the deal with AEG. In an email, Associated Students of Stanford University President Sharta Kantipamula wrote: “The actions undertaken by AEG’s CEO are incredibly harmful to the LGBTQ community and are antithetical to the ASSU’s and greater Stanford community’s values. Therefore, we denounce these actions in the strongest terms. We were not previously aware of the relationship between Goldenvoice, AEG and Stanford Live. With this knowledge, we call on Stanford Live to reaffirm their values and commitment to diversity and inclusion and denounce these harmful actions. We also call on Stanford Live to re-evaluate all existing and future contracts to ensure that they are partnering with organizations that share our values.”

At the end, Perloff learned Stanford had decided to partner with Goldenvoice over Another Planet. The reason: Another Planet already booked the Greek Theater in Berkeley and the Bill Graham Civic in San Francisco.

“Needless to say, I was quite upset,” Perloff says. “That wasn’t something they didn’t know about. Why did I bother to bid if they were just going to say to me, the reason that you didn’t get the bid was because of something they knew ahead of time? If they chose to go with AEG-Goldenvoice, then fine. They’re a private institution. But why the charade? Why the smokescreen?”

DEADLY The Grateful Dead played Frost Amphitheater 13 times in the 1980s. The bootleg tapes from these performances—including the pictured Oct. 9, 1982, show—are particularly prized by Deadheads.

END OF HISTORY That Stanford would partner with such a controversial entity might surprise some, but the school is no stranger to controversy. This March, Stanford was one of many institutions to be implicated in the college admissions scandal, wherein wealthy parents paid to have their kids admitted under false athletic pretenses. As a result, white-collar applicants around the Bay Area are now looking at prison time.

Quick to distance itself from the

scandal, Stanford expelled a student involved and fired head sailing coach John Vandemoer.

But, far from an outlier, accusations of this type have been following the school for almost 100 years.

Way back in 1928, Upton Sinclair, author of Oil! and The Jungle, took the school’s athletic program under the microscope, writing, “Everything depends on victory, and to make certain of victory, there are professional coaches. … The alumni have raised a ‘yellow dog’ fund to bring in professional athletes. … A

ALL OVER NOW About a year ago, KQED writer Sam Lefebvre began to notice a major change taking place in San Francisco.

“It really caught my attention when the partnership between Goldenvoice and Great American-Slim’s was announced,” he says. “For as long as Slim’s has been around, and certainly for decades with the Great American, these had been flagship independent music venues in San Francisco.”

By that time, Goldenvoice had already been operating in the city for a decade. It had begun reasonably enough, with the Warfield and the Regency Ballroom, two of the city’s biggest rooms.

But now, with the 500-capacity Slim’s and the 600-capacity Great American Music Hall under their control, Goldenvoice had established a foothold at nearly every level of booking in the city.

“It sort of brought it to the point where it began to seem like a threat to independent music venues in the Bay Area,” Lefebvre says.

With Frost in its control, one of the industry’s largest players is now creeping southward, consolidating power in a business once defined by dreamers and outsiders. “I mean, if you look at the ownership of any major company these days, there are going to be things that aren’t aligned with your personal politics,” says Lorway, Stanford Live’s executive director.

That is, if nothing else, a pragmatic view.

Back on Oct. 10, 1982, as the sky went dark and night wore on, the Dead settled into their final song, Bob Dylan’s “It’s All Over Now, Baby Blue.”

“Forget the dead you left, they will not follow you,” Garcia sang, before his final words of the night: “It’s all over now, baby blue.”

After a moment’s silence, Graham took the stage again.

“There are some plastic bags out there,” he says, at night’s end. “If you can, take some of your leftovers with you so we can clean this up. Hope to god they like us, and we’ll be back here sometime next year, hopefully.”

A crowd member, caught on the bootleg recording, answers back: “Hopefully.”

Stanford professor assured me that many of them did not even bother to get textbooks.”

In another controversy that broke recently, Stanford announced, to wide outrage, that it would cease funding the 125-year-old Stanford Press. The reason cited: “budgetary restrictions.” This despite the fact that the academic publisher brings in $5 million in book sales a year, and despite the school’s existing endowment of more than $26 billion.

In a statement quoted in Inside Higher Ed, David Palumbo-Liu, a Stanford professor and one of the founding voices of the Asian-American literary movement, denounced the decision, calling it “irresponsible and shameful.”

In the ’80s, the school also came under fire from students and faculty for its sponsorship of the right wing think tank, the Hoover Institute.

An article published in Stanford Magazine showed that at the time, there was only one registered Democrat among Hoover fellows, which included Reaganomics architect Jack Kemp and hydrogen bomb theoretical physicist Edward Teller.

Buried within lists of board members, internal publications and industry-specific journalism, there is at least one demonstrable link between Stanford, Hoover and AEG: Hoover overseer Scott Brittingham and AEG VP Moss Jacobs previously served on the same board together at the Santa Barbara County Bowl.

There, in 2016, Jacobs engineered a business deal between the Bowl and AEG which one outlet called “Machiavellian,” a procedural ruse in which he quit the Bowl to begin working with AEG, then organized a deal between the Bowl and AEG, ousting its previous promoter.

Director emeritus of the Santa Barbara County Bowl, Brittingham joined Hoover’s board of overseers in 2012. A noted Grateful Dead fan, Brittingham commissioned a sculpture of Jerry Garcia’s right hand to be displayed at the Bowl and donated $500,000 to UCSC for an exhibit space of Grateful Dead archival materials.

Requests for clarification on Brittingham’s current role at the Hoover Institute went unanswered.

An empty page bearing Brittingham’s name appears on the Institute’s website as of this writing.

Forks & Knives Michelin gives Bibs and stars, eateries expand, a new food challenge tucks in

BY JOHN DYKE

IRST OFF, A big congratulations to all of 2019’s newly minted Michelin winners. There were no surprises in the Bib Gourmand awards, which are given to establishments that serve “exceptionally good food at moderate prices.” The three South Bay restaurants that won last year—THE BYWATER , ORCHARD CITY KITCHEN and LUNA MEXICAN GRILL—all retained their title.

As for the highly coveted Michelin stars, Silicon Valley is well-represented, with seven restaurants earning at least one Michelin star. Chef David Kinch’s

Los Gatos eatery, MANRESA , was given three stars for the fifth consecutive year, while Palo Alto’s BAUMÉ maintained its two-star rating.

Five others received one star, including the PLUMED HORSE , MADERA , PROTÉGÉ, CHEZ TJ and MAUM. All are Michelin veterans except for Maum, which claimed its first-ever star.

SpreadZ Out Remember the De La Cruz Deli? From their opening in 1974 until closing up shop three years ago, the Northside staple was known for giant sandwiches and catering. Their former space, at the intersection of Charcot and O’Toole, had remained empty until recently.

Not to be confused with Spread (sans-Z)—SPREADZ is using a little more than half (3,200 square feet) of the 4,800-square-foot former De La Cruz shop. Most of that space has been taken by the kitchen, which produces house-made bread, soups and sides, and prepares select meats, like their grilled tri-tip, chicken and salmon.

Like the previous tenant, Spreadz also goes big with their sandos and caters.

A personal favorite, their thick-cut house pickles strike a delicate balance between sweet and sour.

Sweet Smoke Just in time for summer, the SoCalbased Cauldron Ice Cream has landed in San Jose. Located at the corner of Oakland and East Brokaw roads, Cauldron is infinitely Instagrammable.

Employees whip up ice cream on the spot, using an industrial-grade standing mixer, which is cooled with smokey liquid nitrogen. Then there are the rose-shaped “scoops” and the “puffle” cones (essentially Belgian waffles), which come in three flavors: original, red velvet or churro.

Eastside favorite PHO GA AN NAM has been sold and is now under new management. A remodel banished the bizarre, dried palm frond-adorned tiki bar that once greeted patrons.

A fresh paint job, new fixtures and sleek LCD TVs showing daily specials, menus and foodporn is in its place.

Pho Ga An Nam’s menu, which had been entirely chicken-based, has also been revamped. It now includes a full complement of Vietnamese favorites, including beef stew, beef pho and the sweet-and-spicy bun bo hue. There’s even a version that comes with ox penis (a.k.a. pizzle).

Food Coma Speaking of food-focused TV, there’s a brand-new food challenge in the South Bay. Created by TAOB PIT STOP , “The 66” is a mammoth 6.6-pound burrito, loaded with hand-cut fries, mac & cheese and all of TAOB’s smoked meats (pulled pork, ribs, tri-tip, sausage, chicken and pork belly). It comes topped with their own rendition of Orange sauce. It costs $66, but if patrons can eat the entire thing in under 66 minutes it’s on the house.

San Jose legend Joey Chestnut already crushed the challenge, putting it down in less than 10 minutes.

Phrases like “Southern Gothic poetry,” “dark cabaret” and “Rust Belt” burn brightly from within his press kit—springing from the page like road flares on a pitch black country road.

Matchbox Twenty formed in Orlando in 1995; by the following year the rock band had landed a contract with Atlantic. The group's debut album was a worldwide blockbuster, certified 12-times platinum in the US. Four tracks off Yourself or Someone Like You were released as singles; all made the Top 10. Subsequent releases did nearly as well; songwriter and lead singer Rob Thomas raised the group's profile even higher when he sang “Smooth” on Santana's 1999 Supernatural album, another huge hit.

ASSASSIN’S CREED In ‘Archduke,’ a cunning colonel recruits a group of impressionable, destitute youth to do his bidding.

Men O’ War ‘Archduke’ dreams up plausible backstory for boys who started World War I

BY JEFFREY EDALATPOUR

W

HEN THE SECOND act of Archduke opens, 19-year-old Gavrilo (Stephen Stocking) is nursing a broken arm. He’s fitfully dreaming on a leather chaise longue. The stage is cast in darkness except for the large Géricault painting illuminated behind him. The painter depicts a society that’s at war with itself. Enraged bodies commit acts of war against each other in roiling, tormented colors.

While Gavrilo tries to rest, lighting designer Dawn Chiang projects white light against two tall columns that frame the scene. If you concentrate

on her imagery, you can see dozens of distorted skulls interconnected inside the projection. Rajiv Joseph’s play is set in 1914 on the eve of World War I. Without descending into a didactic history lesson, this allusive production finds subtle ways to remind the audience of the millions who died in that conflict.

Gavrilo is also suffering from consumption. It’s the perfect word to describe his state of mind. The disease is consuming his body along with his soul.

After he receives his diagnosis, a death sentence, Gavrilo fixates on a woman’s skeleton that was on display in his doctor’s office. He projects his conscience onto it and even gives those bones a name, Dubravka.

Contemplating suicide, he hears her voice whispering to him, “Don’t do it.” Her bones later appear behind the Géricault, telling him again not to do it. But this time she’s referring to something else. Gavrilo, along with two other young men dying of consumption, have been recruited by a colonel Apis (Scott Coopwood). He wants them to kill the archduke of the Austro-Hungarian empire, Franz Ferdinand.

Archduke is more than a blend of speculative fiction and the re-creation of anecdotal information from history.

Like Don DeLillo’s portrait of Lee Harvey Oswald in Libra, Joseph searches for and finds the reasons why Gavrilo, Nedeljko (Adam Shonkwiler) and Trifko (Jeremy Kahn) fall prey to the charismatic Apis. The colonel strikes a paternal pose, seducing these stray, penniless orphans with promises of glory, and, most important of all, his approbation. When we meet these young men in the opening scene, they’re like characters out of Victor Hugo’s Les Misérables—hungry, isolated and vulnerable.

After they’ve eaten a desperately needed full meal at Apis’ house, the

colonel begins his careful instruction about the Austro-Hungarian threat to Serbian self-rule, and indoctrination to his cause. As the Mephistophelean Apis, Coopwood wholly embodies the playwright’s black comic tone. Joseph’s great sleight of hand in the first act is to mislead the audience into thinking that they’re watching a slapstick comedy.

When Gavrilo picks up one of Trifko’s handmade bombs and then accidentally drops it, the actors hop about the stage like vaudevillians in a silent film.

Gavrilo and Nedeljko have a fraternal rapport that manifests itself in scufflings, abrupt mood changes and meaningless quarrels. They’re still adolescent boys, and lost ones at that. In spite of the early 20th-century European setting, the dialogue is contemporary, quick and witty. Gavrilo refers to the skeleton as “ladybones.”

But Joseph always fills out his funny asides with darker undertones that foreshadow the characters’ troubling ends. Gavrilo wants to know if Nedeljko has found meaning in his life. It’s Apis who provides them with the purpose they’ve been searching for.

In real life, it was only Gavrilo who assassinated Ferdinand.

Archduke charts his transformation from the uncertain foundling we first encounter to his dawning, yet artificial, sense of self-determination.

There’s an insightful exchange between Apis and Sladjana (Luisa Sermol), his cook and servant.

Before Gavrilo’s arm is broken, he hesitated at the idea of becoming an assassin. When his bone snaps, so does his fragile psyche. He picks up an imaginary gun and shoots it.

Apis tells Sladjana that something wonderful has happened. He says that Gavrilo has become a man. Sladjana pauses then calmly asserts that no, in fact, nothing’s changed. He’s still a boy. Boys are taught by father figures like Apis that the only way to become a man is by serving your country and killing for it. Sladjana suggests that Gavrilo disembark before the train reaches its final destination. In hindsight, we know that he didn’t take her good advice.

REVIEW

JUNE 12-18, 2019 | metrosiliconvalley.com | sanjose.com | metroactive.com

DIG IT ‘Shaft’ is baaaad—really… it’s a bad film.

The Big Burn IT’S SUPPOSED TO be about a black private dick, not a shtick about his privates. This catastrophic reboot insists that we won’t know NYC detective John Shaft is a bad M.F. unless he talks about his magnum every six seconds. Barbershop excepted, director Tim Story has never made anything like a good movie. He’s studied the inside of Kevin Hart’s howling mouth in two Ride Along pictures (the third is due presently), and helmed two dismal Fantastic Four opuses (2005, 2007).

Here he’s re-rebooting a super-detective franchise from the 1970s, starring the imposing Richard Roundtree, which was successfully redone by the late John Singleton in 2000 with Samuel L. Jackson in the lead. Detective movies take care of themselves; Jackson tooling around listening to sweet soul music in a big Chrysler is almost a movie on its own. Instead, this is a lot of awkward bonding: the old detective getting his son to nut up and be macho.

A sinister Harlem mosque may be responsible for the overdose of a friend of Shaft’s estranged son, John Shaft Jr. (Jessie Usher). JJ, as he is known, is a plaid-wearing Urkel, an FBI data analyst—the kind of Ivy Leaguer who has a pair of crossed lacrosse sticks over his bed.Usher demonstrates how bad Will Smith is—so bad that he can stink up movies that he’s not even in, just by the moneymaking example of Shaft his bland, poreless acting.

Story’s direction has the rhythms of bad TV, those shows R; 111 Min. that presume you’re distracted—the plot beats explained as Valleywide if part of a PowerPoint presentation, underscoring clues you couldn’t miss if you were three-quarters drunk and playing around with the dog on the couch.

The easily solved mystery unfolds in textureless cityscapes. The upside of Georgia’s new abortion laws: The Hollywood boycott could mean an end to Atlanta’s risible impersonations of NYC on screen. In between the family bonding and supposedly funny gay jokes are a few uninspired gunfights.

First, some stolen John Woo, spent bullet shells flipping balletically in slowmo against the ironically used music of the Shirelles. In the finale, a quote of the freeze-framed death of the Comedian in Zack Snyder’s The Watchmen.

Apart from JJ’s girlfriend Sasha (Alexandra Shipp) and mom (the great Regina Hall of Support the Girls), Shaft is a movie where the women are either strippers or club girls.

Jackson, the hardest working and best paid movie star alive, withstands moments like his fatherly advice to JJ about how to deal with Sasha: “Tear that ass up.” He’ll survive. Whether this kind of banal sadism is the best use of his ever-dwindling time is another matter. —Richard von Busack

DANGEROUS VISIONS Miley Cyrus plays a rebellious pop star in the latest season of ‘Black Mirror.’

Dark Stars Netflix plumbs Oakland A’s history for laughs, delivers dystopian future with ‘Black Mirror’

BY RICHARD VON BUSACK

T

HE WAYS OF Netflix are hard for mortals to understand. Not just the mysterious nature of their ratings and the secret of how many people are watching, but the constant element of surprise. Take the no-comment drop of The Lonely Island’s “visual poem,” The Unauthorized Bash Brothers Experience. It’s allegedly a video rap record done by baseball’s Jose Canseco (Andy Samberg) and Mark McGwire (co-director Akiva Schaffer), heroes of the Oakland Athletics in the 1980s.

Naturally, the auteurs of SNL’s “Dick

in a Box” go straight for the crotch, with a sheaf of autotuned, shouted-out forced rhymes about shrunken junk and renal disease from anabolic steroids: “Kidney failure’s just part of the game!”

The Berkeley-raised Samberg namechecks the highlife in Blackhawk and the lowlifes of Richmond’s skeevy Hilltop Mall. It all bears an important moral (actual quote): “Wow, it sounds like being famous is really hard.” And to give it more heft, the suite of songs are bolstered with Terence Mallick visions of a mystic tree of life and the towering dads who never gave the poor base-bros the approval they deserved.

Then, without preview or preamble, Netflix drops three episodes of Black Mirror, the kind of anthology show that proved the

possibilities of television 60 years ago.

In “Rachel, Jack and Ashley, Too” we meet Rachel (Angourie Rice), a shy teen with a new friend—a pint-sized plastic robot of her musical idol, Ashley O. The toy is programmed to emit banal empowering slogans every 15 seconds.

Her bass-playing, seething sister, Jack (Madison Davenport) despises the thing, seeing it as a tool of marketing forces trying to completely remove the human element from the creation of pop music.

It turns out the real Ashley O is also in rebellion; she’s played by Miley Cyrus, demonstrating that she could have nailed the role of Ally in A Star is Born with ease. Some viewers’ necks will ache from the whiplash turn from David Cronenberg into lighter Joe Dante territory. But there’s too much keen satire here to resent the lack of a final twist.

“Striking Vipers” has The Falcon himself, Anthony Mackie, as Danny a restless husband invited by his studly buddy (Yahya Abdul-Maleen II) to play a new generation video resembling Mortal Kombat. In the nigh-future, Oculus-style specs are obsolete. Instead, there’s the gadget that keeps turning up in episodes of Black Mirror: a marblesize thing you press to your temple,

leaving your body slack and twitching on the couch with gray zombie eyes.

During the game Danny starts noticing his pal’s Sonya Blade-like avatar (Pom Klementieff, the liquid-eyed Mantis in the Marvel Cinematic Universe). In fact, he starts noticing her too much...

Nicole Beharie is very lively, bringing a lot of allure and spine to the role of Danny’s angry, spurned wife.

James Haley’s “Smithereen” is the one of the three episodes that’s truly about a matter of life and death. It showcases Andrew Scott, who portrayed Professor James Moriarity opposite Benedict Cumberbatch’s Sherlock Holmes.

Scott is capable of emoting great kindness and great pathology like no one since Anthony Hopkins. His Chris, a Londoner, carries out a bungled kidnapping. He’ll kill his hostage unless his demand is met: to speak on the phone to the head of Twitter… excuse please, not Twitter, but the “social whatsit” company, Smithereen. In Los Gatos, the Smithereen execs use Chris’ social media profile to try to coax him to give up, even as the police sharpshooters gather. It all leads to a pair of matching painful confessions.

Also keen: the use of “I Can’t Take My Eyes Off of You” as an anthem to those enmeshed in social media.

Incidentally, Black Mirror has one particular bit of luck, which may be due to budget. The show shoots in South Africa. This terrain resembles the purported Southern California settings, without actually being the Southland landscapes we’ve seen in a million movies. This adds a sense of unease. The cities are sprawling and unfamiliar. The mountains aren’t where they should be.

Ashley O’s Malibu compound is, in real life, a luxury estate in South Africa— in other words, visibly ready to turn into a fortress against intruders. That sense of dislocation and danger is one more reason that no one does the year 2025 like Black Mirror.

The show’s creator Charlie Brooker is not a Luddite scold, but rather a man closer to Harlan Ellison, a worried speculative fiction writer seeking the right response to the technology waiting for us.

BLACK MIRROR SEASON 5 THE UNAUTHORIZED BASH BROTHERS EXPERIENCE

LESS IS MORE Tony Molina’s new rarities collection is short and sweet.

THE CUTS ‘Songs From San Mateo’ reveals the method behind Tony Molina’s perpetual pruning

BY MIKE HUGUENOR

T

O UNDERSTAND the music of Tony Molina, we should first talk about bonsai.

Bonsai, as an art, proceeds through cuts. The goal: to take something natural (a tree), and trim it down until all that remains is the truth.

Unlike miniature dog breeds, bonsai trees are not genetically small. Any seed could grow a bonsai. To get there, it takes an artistic eye, and more than a few snips of the shears.

For the better part of a decade

now, Peninsula musician Tony Molina has been crafting what could conceivably be called bonsai rock.

Like bonsai, Molina’s art proceeds through cuts. A Molina song might have the catchiest melody you’ve heard in years and end in less than a minute. Choruses stick out like a lone branch hanging in the wind, never to repeat. While certain melodic phrases might sound like something you’ve heard before (Weezer, Dinosaur Jr.), the end result is always strikingly its own.

This week, Molina releases

Songs From San Mateo via Oakland label Smoking Room. It is his first collection of B-sides. In making these songs public, Molina has pulled the leaves back a bit, revealing a further part of his pruning process—not just what parts of songs to cut, but what songs themselves were left off of albums like Dissed and Dismissed (2013) and Kill the Lights (2018).

In classic Molina style, Songs From San Mateo is brief. Its 14 tracks barely take up 15 minutes. The longest song, “I’m Not Down” (a perfect example of the “Weezer + Dinosaur Jr.” format) doesn’t even crack two minutes. The shortest (“Intro”) is 14 seconds. Fourth track “Can’t Find My Way,” an immediate highlight, is a 48-second tour through Molina’s entire discography. Tracing a melody similar to last year’s “Jasper’s Theme,” “Can’t Find My Way” ditches the Dylan-esque keyboards and acoustics for the thick fuzz of power chords,

exploding at its end into a guitar solo that’s something like Kirk Hammett channeling Andres Segovia. It sort of sounds like a bunch of Tony Molina songs pasted together and then chopped in half. But, then again, so does every Tony Molina song.

“Can’t Find My Way” is followed by “Don’t See the Point,” which similarly caps two verses with a guitar solo, then pulls the plug. Compared to those two songs, “I’m Not Down” is like a rock opera. It even has a full on intro-verse-chorus-bridge structure.

Still, a full fourth of the song is dedicated to Molina’s fretwork, as a bridge carries it from the last chorus to another explosive guitar solo.

One of the few clear Kill the Lights outtakes to appear on Songs From San Mateo is “Word Around Town.”

With its acoustics and humming organ, it could have easily fit beside the autumnal ennui of songs like “Wrong Town,” or “Give He Take You.” Likewise for the acoustic “Don’t See Me Now,” with its bonsai take on Simon and Garfunkel. The decision to cut these two is especially curious considering Kill the Lights’ 14-minute runtime. Would two more minutes have hurt? Obviously, Molina thought as much, and who are we to say that he was wrong? His trees have grown nicely.

As with every Molina record, the secret star is the production work of Jack Shirley. Over the past decade, the monk-like Shirley has established himself as the Bay Area’s Steve Albini, capturing bands as they sound without getting in the way. Acoustics are lush, pick strokes blend with the natural resonance of the wood, and when things get loud, they get loud.

For those who miss the early Tony—the fuzz-and-feedback days— back when everything sounded kinda like “Only in Dreams,” Songs From San Mateo has what you’re looking for. And along the way, you get a glimpse into an artist’s method—the limbs and leaves which, once cut, reveal the truth.

ADVICE GODDESS

By AMY ALKON

metroactive.com | sanjose.com | metrosiliconvalley.com | JUNE 12-18, 2019

AdviceAmy@AOL.com

I live with my girlfriend, who’s really picky about how clean and tidy the house has to be. God forbid I put a bowl on the dish rack that isn’t perfectly immaculate or leave tiny bits of hair in the sink after I shave. She gets totally grossed out by small things that I don’t think are a big deal. If this stuff is ridiculous, should I really have to abide by her rules? And is this a woman thing? Other girlfriends of mine have been like this, too.—Annoyed It’s nice when your girlfriend always has your back, but not because she’s constantly two steps behind you with the wet mop.

Research consistently finds that women have far greater “disgust sensitivity” than men—meaning they have a stronger predisposition to experience disgust.

Disgust—like Little Pigs, Blind Mice, and Stooges—comes in three forms (per evolutionary psychologist Joshua Tybur): sexual, moral and pathogen.

Sexual disgust leads a person to feel creeped out about having sex with evolutionarily disadvantageous partners (too old, too closely related or sporting a big pustule that screams STD.) Moral disgust leads us to be all “Oh, yuck!” about people who violate moral standards. And finally, there’s the pathogen disgust your girlfriend’s expressing, which protects us from bacteria, viruses, parasites and toxins by making us beat a retreat from sick people, dead bodies, spoiled food, and bodily fluids like mucus, spit and poo.

Evolutionary psychologist Laith AlShawaf and his colleagues call women’s greater disgust sensitivity “puzzling in light of their well-documented immunological superiority.” Though we think of women as more physically fragile than men, they actually have “stronger immune responses,” which offer them “better protection than men from a variety of diseases” and “more vigorous defenses against bacteria, viruses, and ... parasites.”

However, Al-Shawaf and his colleagues have some evolutionarily driven hypotheses—informed guesses—for why women are more easily grossed out: (a) Women’s bodies are basically the factories where both parents’ genes get passed on to the next generation. (b) Mothers are also more likely to transmit infections to children. (c) Women have likewise had a greater role in “keeping children away from pathogens and teaching them effective disease-avoidance principles.” (d) Ancestral women had a greater role in food cleaning and prep.

The researchers had a couple of hypotheses about men, too—why men evolved to have lower levels of disgust: (a) It serves men to “to convey immune

strength” to attract babes and to “facilitate short-term mating.” Men’s lowered standards for hygiene, etc., mean a larger pool of potential sex partners! (b) As the hunters and warriors of the species, men need lower levels of disgust “related to blood, injury, and death” lest they be all, “Shoot it with an arrow? But it’ll bleed, and I pass out at the sight of blood!”

As interesting as all of this speculation is, for purposes of relationship harmony, the reason your girlfriend is more easily disgusted doesn’t actually matter. Likewise, whether what she wants you to do seems rational isn’t relevant, either—tempting as it might be to adjudicate this on scientific grounds, a la “Is a little encrusted whatever really going to kill us?”

Understanding this is important. A lot of unnecessary relationship conflict comes out of people thinking they need to stand up against beliefs by their partner that they find kind of cuckoo for Cocoa Puffs.

Often—assuming a partner’s beliefs are merely annoying, not endangering—a wiser approach is acting on the principle that the facts matter vastly less than the feelings behind them.

In your situation, for example, what counts is that you’re kind and respectful— meaning that you do your best to remember to clean up, especially in the bathroom and kitchen (major gross-out arenas)—simply because it’s important to your girlfriend. And when you forget— which you’re sure to do—apologize, making sure to validate her feelings: “I know this matters to you...I’ll try to do better...” Hearing that you get where she’s coming from tells her something—that she doesn’t need to keep fighting to make you understand.

There’s that saying,“Would you rather be right or be happy?” The truth is, you can be both—silently laughing to yourself about the absurd contradictions of humanity: Just because we ladies go “Uh-huh...whatever...” about the gazillions of microscopic germs reportedly living on our smartphones doesn’t mean we can be all “No probski!” about the retirement community for bacteria that we picture on that foodglobbed soup bowl you set on the dish rack.

FREE WILL ASTROLOGY ARIES (March 21-April 19): We may not have to

travel to other planets to find alien life. Instead of launching expensive missions to other planets, we could look for exotic creatures here on earth.

Astrobiologist Mary Beth Wilhelm is doing just that.

Her search has taken her to Chile's Atacama Desert, whose terrain has resemblances to Mars. She's looking for organisms like those that might have once thrived on the Red Planet. In accordance with astrological omens, I invite you to use this idea as a metaphor for your own life. Consider the possibility that you've been looking far and wide for an answer or resource that is actually close at hand.

nearby, but in an unrecognizable guise. Rumpled but rich opportunities will appear at the peripheries, though you may not immediately recognize their value. A mess that you might prefer to avoid looking at could be harboring a very healthy kind of trouble. My advice to you, therefore, is to drop your expectations. Be receptive to possibilities that have not been on your radar. Be willing to learn lessons you have neglected or disdained in the past.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): In the 1960s, Gemini musician Brian Wilson began writing and recording best-selling songs with his band the Beach Boys.

A seminal moment in his development happened while he was listening to his car radio in August 1963. A tune he had never heard before came on: "Be My Baby" by the Ronettes. Wilson was so excited he pulled over onto the shoulder of the road and stopped driving so he could devote his full attention to what he considered a shockingly beautiful work of art. "I started analyzing all the guitars, pianos, bass, drums, and percussion," he told The New York Times. "Once I got all those learned, I knew how to produce records." I suspect a pivotal moment like this could unfold for you in the coming weeks, Gemini. Be alert!

soul is so rich and complicated, so many-splendored and mysterious, so fertile and generous. I'm amazed you can hold all the poignant marvels you contain.

Isn't it sometimes a struggle for you to avoid spilling over? Like a river at high tide during heavy rains?

And yet every so often there come moments when you go blank; when your dense, luxuriant wonders go missing. That's OK! It's all part of the Great Mystery.

You need these fallow phases. And I suspect that the present time might be such a time. If so, here's a fragment of a poem by Cecilia Woloch to temporarily use as your motto: "I have nothing to offer you now save my own wild emptiness.”

Foucault, I'll tell you that this alternate type of criticism ignites useful fires and sings to the grass as it grows. It looks for the lightning of possible storms, and coaxes codes from the sea foam. I hope you'll practice this kind of "criticism" in the coming weeks, Libra—a criticism that doesn't squelch enthusiasm and punish mistakes, but instead champions the life spirit and helps it ripen.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Philosopher Martin Buber believed that some stories have the power to heal. That's why he said we should actively seek out such stories. Buber's disabled grandfather once told Buber a story about an adored teacher who loved to dance. As the grandfather told the story, he got so excited that he rose from his chair to imitate the teacher, and suddenly began to hop and dance around in the way his teacher did. From that time on, the grandfather was cured of his disability. What I wish for you in the coming weeks is that you will find stories like that.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): My dear Cancerian, your Great Place

By ROB BREZSNY week of June 12

is Leo-born Adrienne Sioux Koopersmith. When she was going through a hard time in 1991, she resolved to buoy her spirits by creating cheerful, splashy new holidays. Since then she has filled the calendar with over 1,900 new occasions to celebrate. What a perfect way to express her radiant Leo energy! National Splurge Day on June 18 is one of Adrienne's favorites: a time for revelers to be extra kind and generous to themselves. That's a happy coincidence, because my analysis of the astrological omens suggests that this is a perfect activity for you to emphasize during the coming weeks.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): "Let me keep my mind

on what matters, which is my work, which is mostly standing still and learning to be astonished." Virgo poet Mary Oliver made that statement. It was perfectly reasonable for her, given her occupation, although a similar declaration might sound outlandish coming from a non-poet. Nonetheless, I'll counsel you to inhabit that frame of mind at least part time for the next two weeks. I think you'll benefit in numerous ways from ingesting more than your minimum daily dose of beauty, wonder, enchantment and astonishment.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Libran philosopher Michel Foucault articulated a unique definition of "criticism."

He said that it doesn't dish out judgments or hand down sentences. Rather, it invigorates things by encouraging them, by identifying dormant potentials and hidden beauty. Paraphrasing and quoting

logic and champion rational thinking, I'm granting you a temporary exemption from their supremacy.

To understand what's transpiring in the coming weeks, and to respond with intelligence, you will have to transcend logic and reason. They will simply not be sufficient guides as you wrestle and dance with the Great Riddle that will be visiting. You will need to unleash the full power of your intuition.

You must harness the wisdom of your body, and the information it reveals to you via physical sensations.

You will benefit from remembering at least some of your nightly dreams and inviting them to play on your consciousness throughout the day.

emotional and spiritual health, you may need to temporarily withdraw or retreat from one or more of your alliances. But I recommend that you don't do anything drastic or dramatic. Refrain from harsh words and sudden breaks. For now, seal yourself away from influences that are stirring up confusion so you can concentrate on reconnecting with your own deepest truths. Once you've done that for a while, you'll be primed to find helpful clues about where to go next in managing your alliances.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): I've got a list of do's

and don'ts for you. Do play and have fun more than usual. But don't indulge in naïve assumptions and infantile emotions that interfere with your ability to see the world as it really is. Do take aggressive action to heal any sense of abandonment you're still carrying from the old days. But don't poison yourself with feelings of blame toward the people who abandoned you. Do unleash wild flights of fantasy and marvelous speculations about seemingly impossible futures that maybe aren't so impossible. But don't get so fixated on wild fantasies and marvelous speculations that you neglect to embrace the subtle joys that are actually available to you right now.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): "At times, so many

memories trample my heart that it becomes impossible to know just what I'm feeling and why," writes Piscean poet Mark Nepo. While that experience is familiar to everyone, it's especially common for you Pisceans. That's the bad news. But here's the good news: in the coming weeks, your heart is unlikely to be trampled by your memories.

Hence, you will have an excellent chance to know exactly what you're feeling and why. The weight of the past will at least partially dissolve, and you'll be freer than usual to understand what's true for you right now without having to sort through confusing signals about who you used to be.
