why they didn’t have me on the panel to talk about north San Jose,” he said.

Thankfully, Chu didn’t let that slight get him down. By the end of the conference, he felt he got to “really know other players” in the sustainable communities movement. And, as the junket—er, conference—brochure promised, fun was always just around the corner. “Saturday afternoon there will be time to ski, hike, or curl up by the fire,” the brochure read. Chu told Fly he spent Saturday afternoon taking a hike up to the Yosemite Falls. The conference was set to conclude at noon on Sunday, but the Chus are early risers,

as their parking receipt attests. Instead of hanging around for the last few speakers, Chu’s ticket stub says he left Yosemite National Park at 9:59am. So, to recap the conference, Chu arrived late, left early and dropped nearly a grand in city money so he could rub elbows and stare at a waterfall. Asked what specific work he’s done on building a more sustainable community in San Jose since the retreat, Chu mentioned something about being on the Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG). He seemed surprised when informed he never gave a report back to the council on the conference. Asked if he thinks it was worth it: “Do I want to go every year?

Probably not,” he said. “But once in eight years on the council? Yes.”

Buzz About BBQ

SV DINING

Ed Somerfield knew he had something rare when scores of people were simply lining up for his

food. “At festivals, people were in line for 45 minutes to an hour to get an $8 sandwich. Then it was 100 people. Then 300,” Somerfield says with a contagious chuckle.

“We started with nothing in the bank and a lot of passion,” he continued, “I’m not saying we’re the best, but I am saying that we’re really good.”

Besides going to festivals, Big Ed’s Buzzard BBQ also caters to some of the biggest names in our area. Google? Check. Lockheed and Martin? Check.

San Francisco 49ers? Check. They also conduct weekend barbecue classes that (as of recently) are sold out until 2014.

The rising popularity of Somerfield’s food led to the idea of a restaurant, which opened recently. Located on 807 Aldo Ave. in Santa Clara, its hours are limited to 11am-2:30pm on weekdays, for now.

The menu consists of Big Ed’s crowd-pleasing fare: ribs, smoked brisket, pulled pork, tri-tip and hot links. Sides are more on the traditional end, with some clever house creations in the mix. Take, for instance the deep-fried mac ’n’ cheese: creamy mac ’n’ cheese is cut up round like a burger, dipped in egg wash and homemade breadcrumbs, then deep-fried. All of the barbecue sauces, which include a homemade blackberry and a mango habanero, are also made in-house.

At the Table

Beginning this month, the San Jose Museum of Art kicks off its three-part exhibit titled Around the Table, which expands on the historical, social and political notions of food.

The first stage, which opened earlier this month, features an installation by artist Jitish Kallat, titled Epilogue (2010-2011). The exhibition features thousands of photographs of roti (Indian flatbread), representing the 22,000 moons that illuminated his father’s 62 years on Earth.

The second stage, launching Nov. 9, is based on three topics: healthful eating; food and community; and food issues. Seventeen artists have produced original pieces that touch on everything from the history of breadmaking to mutagenic mint. The museum itself will be adorned with interior decorations, such as curry wallpaper and a living tree growing 40 varieties of stone fruits.

Talk Around the Table is the theme of the third stage, which debuts on Dec. 19. Visitors will get a chance to create, debate, share and explore how food connects with our everyday lives.

In conjunction with this, SJMA is piloting “Sowing Creativity,” an educational program that seeks to educate students about personal health and livable communities. SJMA educators and teaching artists will collaborate with public school teachers to create curriculum based on Around the Table, with field trips to Veggielution, an urban community farm.—Kristine Bautista Share tips about the latest in food news with kbautista@metronews.com.

Spanish opera, or zarzuela, saw its golden age in the late 19th and early 20th century, dying out as a form around the onset of the Spanish Civil War. Though similar in musical style to Italian opera, zarzuela differs by interspersing spoken lines along with the songs. "This is beautiful music that is rarely presented," Armienta said, "It's an opportunity for people to explore Latino culture Zarzuela and Beyond beyond what they're accustomed to. We are so very multifaceted; we draw from many cultural wells."

Sep 28, 7:30pm Armienta is an explorer himself. As a person of both Mexican Heritage Plaza, San Jose Mexican and European ancestry, he views his work on the upcoming shows as a chance to explore his $10-$35 father's European heritage. First, Opera Cultura is 800.838.3006 or presenting “Zarzuela and Beyond,” Sept. 28 at the operacultura.org Mexican Heritage Theater, an evening of classic zarzuela arias sung by soprano Alexandra Sessler, accompanied

by Armienta on piano. They have also brought on board flamenco and Spanish dancer La Tania to close out the show with two dance pieces, one newly composed by Armienta.

However, exploring the neglected past only goes so far in keeping opera alive. "Opera needs to connect to a broader audience. They need to feel their stories are being told," Armienta explains. This is why Opera Cultura's next production in March, Tales of Pilgrimage, will draw on the experiences of residents of San Jose's Eastside neighborhoods. Already the company is recording interviews with community members which will provide the material for a new song cycle composed by Armienta and directed by Kinan Valdez, son of famed Chicano playwright and director Luis Valdez.

If all goes well, Armienta is planning on producing a festival of zarzuela scenes in 2015, and a full zarzuela performance for the 2015-2016 season. On top of that, he's working on bringing a singer to town from Mexico, which is undergoing a kind of operatic resurgence at the moment, and he's acquired the rights to create a new opera based on Rudolpho Anaya's novel Bless Me, Ultima, considered canonical in contemporary Chicano literature.

The way to keep opera alive then? Hard work in the here and now. Looking back to popular opera in the past "they all were drawing on contemporary stories," Armienta says, "This needs to continue."—Stephen Layton

FEELINGS UNFOLD Andy (Damian Vega) nurses a crush on origami master Ilana (Janis DeLucia) in ‘Animals Out of Paper.’

Delicate Forms THE FOLDS and creases of life—those indelible marks that make us who we are—are traversed in City Lights Theater’s season-opening production of Animals Out of Paper. Written by Rajiv Joseph, whose play The North Pool saw its world premiere in Palo Alto two years ago, and whose Bengal Tiger at the Baghdad Zoo was a Pulitzer Prize finalist, Animals is a delicate exploration of three people, the marks the world has left on them and the marks they leave on each other.

Sealed within her cluttered studio, origami master Animals Out of Paper Ilana Andrews (Janis DeLucia) leads a life of hermitic squalor. Her marriage is finished, her Thru Oct. 20 beloved three-legged dog has run away and she City Lights Theater hasn’t been producing any new work. This seclusion Company, San Jose is disrupted by Andy (Damian Vega), a calculus teacher and the treasurer of an origami association $16.95-$34.95. who has tracked Ilana down, ostensibly to discuss cltc.org. unpaid membership fees, but actually because of Suresh (Danraj Rajasansi), a teenage origami prodigy whom he wants Ilana to mentor. That, and the fact that Andy has a major crush on the reclusive artist.

After Ilana’s reluctant agreement to tutor Suresh, much of the plot is predictable (the love triangle is easy to see coming from a mile away, and the teacher-learns-from-student trope is almost obligatory) but Joseph’s characters are as finely crafted as the paper animals that adorn the set, and the cast fleshes them out beautifully. Ilana, a caustic, neurotic artist; Andy, an aw-shucks loser who counts his blessings (literally—he keeps a notebook of them); Suresh, an emotionally strained young man who can effortlessly freestyle both origami and rap—three people who don’t seem like they should be in the same room come together over a shared love of paper folding. Director Karen Altree Piemme turns the resulting awkwardness into an art form.

The set is populated by a menagerie of folded figures, most prominent among them being a great swooping paper eagle, and the attention given to these details reflects the sensitivity of Joseph’s play. Dr. Robert Lang, the origami teacher with whom Rajiv Joseph studied in preparation for Animals, even provided his input for the production, and it shows. Although little paper folding actually occurs onstage, the art of origami nevertheless proves an elegant motif that is used to its full potential.—Sean Conwell

We have no reason to be jealous of other cities with festivals celebrating the digital revolution, because Silicon Valley now has its own. Who’d a thunk, when a small posse of us dreamed this event up in the streets of Austin late one night, that there’d be an event a year later commemorated by a Shepard Fairey poster. With the final stop of The Stooges’ tour. And a tech conference with the chair of Yahoo and some of the world’s leading futurists—Scoble, Solis, Squire and Stibel (why do they all begin with “s”?). And some of the smartest minds working on robotics, artificial intelligence apps and self-driving cars.

There will be fledgling startups and a panel of five leading women entrepreneurs. A deep look at the sharing economy and social transportation. A visit by John McAfee. A session with Jello Biafra. And two of Silicon Valley’s most important pioneers — Steve Wozniak and Nolan Bushnell — will take the stage together to discuss a late colleague whose legacy is profound.

For four nights, bands will activate Downtown San Jose. Well-known ones like the Lemonheads and many you’ve never heard of. That’s the whole point. Discover.

The conference will take place in the brand new wing of the San Jose McEnery Convention Center, and the music will be performed at 12 club venues. A single pass or wristband will provide entry to the various venues, or passes can be purchased for single events.

Some events will fill up, so arrive early; priority entry will be given to wristband and badge holders. Tickets are available at c2sv.com/tickets

MUSIC ARTISTS Anya and the Getdown

BVMO

Anya Kvitka has found a whole new way to embrace musical schizophrenia with her band the Get Down. Based in San Jose, Calif., the band’s sound touches on everything from rock, soul and funk to hip-hop, dubstep, reggae and, of course, jazz.

The BVMO crew is a San Jose-based DJ group consisting of Dstrukt, SheaButter & SmoovGroovs. This group is glued together by a genuine appreciation for all types of music— and their sound draws on many different styles. Everyone in the crew has the same objective of spinning interesting and obscure soul, funk, hip-hop and even some electronic dance music, and doing so in an artistic way that still achieves the main goal of getting people to dance. But they all do it in different ways.

B. Lewis B.Lewis has gotten a lot of international attention for his original electronic arrangements, which often lean into instrumental hip-hop territory. Pitchfork recently gave him major props for his production on the new Bad Rabbits album. At C2SV he’ll be performing a DJ set.

Cartoon Bar Fight

Bibles & Hand Grenades

Claw Hammer

Bibles and hand grenades may not be two items that go together so well, but the band Bibles & Hand Grenades do bring seemingly dissimilar genres together quite naturally (country, metal, old school rock & roll).

Formed in Los Angeles in the mid-’80s, Claw Hammer purveys a music squarely located at the more brutal end of the hardcore punk-rock spectrum. The band debuted in 1989 with the Poor Robert EP, followed by a self-titled debut album Sympathy for the Record Industry a year later. Their Double Pack Whack Attack EP included versions of material by Patti Smith, Pere Ubu, Brian Eno and Devo. However, it was not until the mid-’90s when the hardcore punk band really came to prominence.

Black Milk Coupling his talent as a producer with his sharp lyricism and stylish delivery as an emcee, Black Milk has proven to be one of the most vital hip-hop artists of his generation.

His release Album of the Year broke new ground in hip-hop production, and drew on a broad range of influences, from rock, reggae and afrobeat.

Falling somewhere between dream pop and indie folk, San Jose’s Cartoon Bar Fight could be 2013’s answer to the Cranberries. The five-piece indie rock/folk/experimental group creates a lot of lush arrangements and earnest melodies, and have a knack for writing interesting concept albums. Their next release will be about space, according to the band.

Containher As a singer-songwriter, Containher brings a theatrical and haunting vision to her music, both in the chords she chooses and the imagery in her lyrics. Stylistically, she is versatile (folk, electronic, indie-rock) and she frequently collaborates with other artists.

Curious Quail Bosnian Rainbows Bosnian Rainbows is a new band featuring Teri Gender Bender (Le Butcherettes), Nicci Kasper (Kudu, KRS-ONE), Deantoni Parks (John Cale, The Mars Volta) and Omar Rodriguez Lopez (The Mars Volta, At the Drive-In). The group formed during the summer of 2012 and released their debut self-titled album this summer on Sargent House. Bosnian Rainbows draw on many influences: early ’80s post-punk and new wave, and corrosive synth-pop. The songs themselves are anthemic, yet still personal.

Brother Grand Ben Henderson has played passionate folk songs for years, sometimes solo, other times with a full backing band. Brother Grand is an offshoot of this, but with upright bass player Endika. Performed as a duo, the songs sound surprisingly thick. It’s just what Henderson’s brilliant songs have always needed.

If there’s any band in San Jose that so totally has the support of their fans it’s indie-folk group Curious Quail.

Their fans voted for them to play BFD this year and helped the band reach its $6,000 Kickstarter goal (to fund an upcoming album) in a matter of days. Big things are on the horizon for Curious Quail.

Dam-Funk Known as Los Angeles’ “Ambassador of Boogie Funk,” Dam-Funk (pronounced “dame” as in Damon) spent the last few years cultivating a musical renaissance rooted in the early-’80s styles known as boogie, modern soul and electro-funk. As a DJ/selector, Dam attracts boogie funk aficionados within driving distance of his storied Mondaynight Funkmosphere parties. But it’s not just collectors at the bar toasting to the melodic sounds. Anyone who grooves to the likes of Slave, Aurra, early Prince, Prelude Records and their ilk will get a dose of those groups’ unknown contemporaries—more obscure but equally funk-worthy.

MUSIC ARTISTS

Eliquate

San Francisco’s Deafheaven blends black metal with elements of shoegaze. The band began as the duo of George Clarke (vocals) and Kerry McCoy (guitars). The pair expanded the lineup to include guitarist Nick Bassett, bassist Derek Prine and drummer Trevor Deschryver, who appeared on Deafheaven’s 2011 full-length debut, Roads to Judah, before leaving the band the following year. McCoy and Clarke worked on the material for their next album as a duo again, later bringing in drummer Daniel Tracy to join them in the studio. The result was their sophomore effort, Sunbather, released to acclaim this summer.

Five-piece California beat-rock troubadours Eliquate pack an arsenal of rhymes that range from satirical social commentary and inner-soul searching to all-out, shakeyour-ass-‘til-the floor-is-wet jams. Eliquate’s music has been charging parties up and down the West Coast since 2009. In that time span, they’ve graced the stage with underground royalty such as Murs, Del the Funky Homosapien, Zion-I and RJD2, to name a few. Their latest EP is Who The F*ck Is Eliquate?

Dinners For a group of lo-fi rock & roll slackers, Dinners have created a nuanced and interesting indie rock album, Black Rabbits, that pays homage to the ’90s lo-fi indie heyday. It is best enjoyed on vinyl, where all the subtle details can be heard at peak audio quality—at least, that’s what the vinylworshiping members of the band would say.

Dirty Ghosts Guitarist and singer Allyson Baker cut her teeth on punk rock as a teen in Toronto, Ontario, playing guitar in a variety of area hardcore bands before relocating to San Francisco in 2000. She made her first significant mark in 2002 as a member of Parchman Farm, and resurfaced in 2006 with Dirty Ghosts, a studio project that by 2011 had become a touring band. While still drawing on a familiar guitar crunch and kinetic rhythms, Dirty Ghosts incorporate a modern groove and post-punk dub atmospheres.

Dirty Pillows Is a bass guitar really all that necessary for an indie-punk band? The Dirty Pillows don’t think so. With Millhows on guitar/vocals and Jeff Jagged (owner of On The Corner Music) backing him on drums, the duo mixes elements of jangle-pop, garage, ’90s indie-rock and punk-rock into a fun, tight, energetic package.

DLRN Comprising Sean LaMarr on vocals and Jon Reyes behind the boards, DLRN are contemporary visionaries balancing cinematic production with the existential crisis of fulfilling a hero’s quest. Soul seekers on the outside of anomic scenes, DLRN envision more for hip-hop and strive to guide contemporaries toward a new breaking day.

E V Kain Let’s start a band that is as fun to sing in as ’80s karaoke but not invite any lead singers. Let’s just sing ourselves.

Is the bass taking away from the vocals? Are the drums causing a ruckus that interferes with the lead vocalist? Is the guitar controlling the melody, impeding the strength of the vocal? We will not know because there is no lead vocalist or producer to fuck this thing up. E V Kain are three beating hearts in harmony and rhythm.

Fatso Jetson Fatso Jetson, formed in Palm Desert, Calif., in 1994, are often credited as being among the fathers of desert rock.

The band incorporates a variety of musical influences that include punk, blues, jazz and rock. Prone to experiment with many musical textures, angular instrumental epics and bizarre lyrics, they create a punk/blues art rock all their own.

Finish Ticket Alt/rock/indie band Finish Ticket—comprising Brendan Hoye (vocals, keys), Alex DiDonato (guitar, vocals), Michael Hoye (bass) and Gabe Stein (drums)—formed in 2008. The group draws on many genres, blending melodic hooks and bluesy guitar riffs into a lush sound.

G.F.P. Formed by former DFL vocalist Crazy Tom Davis, G.F.P. unites West Coast and East Coast hardcore stylings.Tom recruited Dogtown skate legend Tony Alva to play bass, and after several drummers and guitarists came and went, Bad Religion/Circle Jerks guitarist Greg Hetson took over axe duties. The bi-coastal blend was finalized when D.C.’s Grant McGregor, drummer with H.R., joined earlier this year.

Hand of the Hills In late 2011, Erin Tate (Minus the Bear) approached David Totten (The Quiet Ones, Scriptures) and asked him to collaborate. Finding common influences in the textures of psychedelic and schizophrenic prog rock of the ’60s and ’70s, as well as the melodies of indie-folk music, they began to write songs containing a mixture of elements that were both strange and familiar. There was both riffage and ambience, wandering guitar lines and shredding solos, screaming vocal melodies and soft background vocal pads. They soon realized that they would need a killer rhythm section to fill out the sound, so they enlisted multiinstrumentalist Matt Benham (The Black Swedes, Argo).

Haptic Synapses Haptic Synapses are a full-fledged electronic improvised trio. Each member makes beats and programs on the spot without coordinating in advance, playing off one another in real time to create an exciting, spontaneous musical experience.

MUSIC ARTISTS holychild

Occult Wisdom

If there is a middle ground between Katy Perry and Bjork (or pop and experimental) in contemporary popular music, Los Angeles’ holychild is it. The band’s latest music video, for the song “Best Friends,” was exclusively premiered by MTV Buzzworthy, who named it the song of the summer. Their debut EP, mind speak, will be released in October.

It doesn’t take much thought to just amp up and make some tumultuous noise. Especially for a trio like Occult Wisdom, a bare-bones proposition that celebrates the rock & roll primitivism of the late ’60s by invoking some killer bludgeoning riffs and thick overdubbed guitars. Like an early Black Sabbath recording, the production sounds roughedged and smoggy, an element that further emphasizes their affinity for the era they affectionately revisit.

Iggy and The Stooges Iggy Pop was one of the first true punks, and he very well may end up the last. For four decades, he’s gotten his kicks stunning audiences, tormenting the record industry and keeping hope alive for the true spirit of rock and roll.

With the Stooges, Iggy defined the heavy proto-punk sound that would lead to grunge, thrash, stoner rock and countless other offshoots. The band eventually morphed into Iggy and The Stooges with the addition of James Williamson. In 1973, they released the monster Raw Power album, with its granddaddy of all rawk songs, “Search and Destroy.” But the band was always too far ahead of its time, and within a year it had imploded. In 2003, Iggy reunited with The Stooges’ original lineup. But in 2009, guitarist Ron Asheton passed away, and Iggy famously said that The Stooges died with him. But he offered hope to fans, pointing out that there was a possibility that Iggy and The Stooges could return. Williamson rejoined Iggy and The Stooges in time for the band to tour the world and be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. This year, they returned to form on record with the raw Ready to Die.

Mary and the Manchild Mary and the Manchild presents music as a medium while remaining conceptual art of the best variety. Good satire is wrought with ironic twist, and the band takes that to another level by playing straight ahead rock & roll combined with a sharp sense of humor and lavish songwriting, as featured in such instant hits as “Jewish Cowboy” and “Hairdoll.”

Being influenced by popular culture as well as obscure jazz and indie rock, Mary and the Manchild is bound to grab the attention of an audience who may find themselves scratching their heads to the beat of a swung rhythm.

Mondo Generator Mondo Generator was formed in 1997 by Queens of the Stone Age bassist/singer Nick Oliveri. Initially intended as a solo/side project, the classic Cocaine Rodeo album was recorded that same year, but shelved until the Southern Lord label released it and its unique brand of criminal insanity to widespread acclaim and horror in the summer of 2000. The follow-up, A Drug Problem That Never Existed, was released jointly in the summer of 2003 by Ipecac Records and Rekords Rekords to further critical acclaim.

A worldwide tour followed that was chronicled on video for the DVD release, Use Once and Destroy Me. Subsequent releases have included 2004’s III The EP and Dead Planet: SonicSlowMotionTrails in 2006. In summer 2012, the new Mondo Generator album, Hell Comes to Your Heart, was released by Mondo Media/Cobraside.

OFF! Keith Morris (Black Flag, Circle Jerks), Dimitri Coats (Burning Brides), Steven McDonald (Redd Kross) and Mario Rubalcaba (Hot Snakes/Earthless/Rocket from the Crypt) are OFF!. They are the force and spirit of L.A. punk circa ’78 resuscitated, reconstituted and re-imagined for a similarly uncertain age. The band released their debut 7-inch EP in October of 2010. The critical acclaim poured in—Pitchfork, NPR, the Los Angeles Times, etc.—followed by a slot at the prestigious Coachella Music Festival in Indio, Calif., and riotous American, European and Australian tours. OFF!’s first “proper” full-length was released in May 2012 via Vice Records, simply and effectively entitled OFF! Produced by Dimitri Coats at Kingsize Soundlabs in L.A., the album clocks in at a grand total of just under 16 minutes, each more pissed-off than the last.

Onward, etc Onward, etc. is a musical project put together by Rosco Wuestewald. Leaving the Midwest at an early age, he started a journey traveling around the world that has developed into a project known as Onward, etc. The project connects musicians located throughout the country, enabling each tour and show to be unique, based on the different band members and the location of the stage. As with anything alive with electricity, permanent members have been picked up along the way. The project has been a part of Coachella and played Vans Warped Tour, SE Alaskan State Fair, and venues both intimate and rowdy throughout the U.S.

Party Ben Party Ben is a DJ, producer, radio host and programmer best known for his mashups, remixes and innovative radio shows. He straddles the line between curator and producer, and his music reflects this eclectic, remix-culture vibe.

Party Ben productions have been viral hits worldwide, from a notorious Green Day/Oasis combo to recent Hype Machine-charting reworks of DJ Shadow and Fun. He was named a “Top 10 High Note of the Decade” in Bay Area music by the San Francisco Chronicle and called “ridonkulous” (in what one can only hope was a good way) by The New Yorker’s Sasha Frere-Jones.

Penthouse Penthouse Heavy-hitters Penthouse Penthouse have been putting it down hard with top-notch remixes, productions and performances. With Sig-O, Smoovgroovs, Bluz and Nerstylist.

MUSIC ARTISTS Picture Atlantic opened for Coldplay at the HP Pavilion, and they’ve toured up and down the West Coast on their own many times, drawing packed houses wherever they go. As far as guitar-driven indie-rock goes, San Jose has no bigger band than quartet Picture Atlantic. Fans love their mixture of passionate heart-on-the-sleeve songwriting and driving indierock beats, textured with keyboards and nuanced guitar work.

Raw Geronimo Raw Geronimo is a wide-eyed yet street-savvy product of the delirious cultural copulation that is life in Los Angeles in the second decade of the new millennium: utopia gloriously smashing headlong into dystopia. Effortlessly bridging the unlikely musical gaps between the lush, ethereal, idiosyncratic nature of Kate Bush, the flirtatious punk pop of Bow Wow Wow and the corralling spirit and eclecticism of Roxy Music, Raw Geronimo is led by the industrious and spritely multiinstrumentalist Laena Geronimo. Her pedigree as the progeny of a gifted Romanian singer/songwriter mother and drummer father (Alan Myers of Devo) is undeniable. Here, Raw Geronimo finally sees her writhing brainchild come to its true fruition after years of veteran time spent both in countless DIY punk/ experimental groups and holding down bass playing duties for contemporary girl-group darlings the Like.

The Record Winter Born in San Jose, the Record Winter has been playing and recording together since 2007. In that time, they released several EPs and one full-length album. Descriptions vary but it wouldn’t be off point to say the Record Winter are a bastard child of Queens of the Stone Age, Fugazi, Dead Kennedys, Neil Young, Hot Snakes, Black Flag, Cursive and Dinosaur Jr. They are currently putting the finishing touches on their second full-length album, ushering in a new harder and darker sound, inspired in part by singer/ songwriter Dominic Miranda’s near-death experience and hospitalization over the last couple of years.

genres much the way the Bay Bridge connects land. Shea thrives off finding new talent and it’s easy to find parallels to old Stonesthrow vibes when he’s working with his fellow BVMO DJs Dstruskt and SmoovGroovs. There is a certain calmness to his demeanor, as if he has been chosen to instinctively continue playing music for those that pursue their passions.

Shinobu On-again, off-again Shinobu was doing the chunky postpunk-throwback sound before it was cool again. They also lay claim to the best ’80s-revival reference ever, with their play on New Order's "Bizarre Love Triangle," a song called simply "Regular Love Triangle." Certainly New Order/Joy Division are a big influence, but so are the Pixies (check out "I Am a Lightning Bolt") and the Replacements. Some say they sound like Pavement getting into a car crash or Built to Spill drinking Steel Reserve instead of experimenting with psychedelics.

Sleepy Sun The band of brothers known far and wide as Sleepy Sun don’t sit still for long. Though they remain real and spiritual citizens of the Santa Cruz and San Francisco haunts that birthed the band in the latter half of the last decade, Sleepy Sun is a rambling band—a certifiably vagabond unit that built a reputation among American and European audiences as a fine-tuned, ironclad locomotive and candy-sweet heavy pop machine. Barnstorming the Great Plains, stealing afternoons from the unsuspecting on the European festivalgo-round, hooking the uninitiated opening for the Arctic Monkeys, Black Angels and Low Anthem, they’ve done yeoman’s work, sparked the party and made the music sound young again. Sleepy Sun’s miles, months and days in the van are a tangible presence in their latest release Spine Hits, an LP of whimsy, restlessness and urgency that leaps nimbly from landscape to landscape with ease, irreverence and a catch-em-before-they-ain’t changeling nature.

Social Studies Rin Tin Tiger An alternative folk rock trio from San Francisco, Rin Tin Tiger delivers high energy, lyric-heavy songs with a sound that is often described as a blend between early Bob Dylan and the Violent Femmes. A former headliner at SF Station’s The Lineup local music showcase, the trio has shared the stage with Minus the Bear, Young the Giant, Manchester Orchestra, Max Bemis of Say Anything, The Lumineers, Fences, Los Amigos Invisibles, Mike Coykendall, Ida, Hey Marseilles and many more. The band performs tracks from its new album Splintered Remedies, released in August, at C2SV.

Shea Butter Part of BVMO DJ crew, Shea Butter can be found regularly working parties throughout Silicon Valley and the Bay Area.

Raised on his mom’s tunes—anything from Afro-Cuban rhythms and Santana to Marvin Gaye and Stevie Wonder— those sounds and their offspring can still be heard in his eclectic, free flowing, genre-crushing mixes. He connects

Naming their sophomore album Developer is a bold move for the still-young band Social Studies. But it is as apt a description as you're likely to find for how the sound of this San Francisco-based five-piece has flourished, matured and, yes, developed over the past two years. The band—led

by Natalia Rogovin (vocals, keys) and Michael Jirkovsky (drums), who were joined in 2009 by bassist Jesse Hudson and guitarist Tom Smith, and this year by second guitarist Ben McClintock—has already won a loyal fan base thanks to their arch take on modernist pop as heard on 2010 release Wind Up Wooden Heart. Social Studies has become a force to be reckoned with in concert as well, transfixing audiences at the CMJ Music Festival, SXSW, Noise Pop and now C2SV.

MUSIC ARTISTS Soft White Sixties Named as one of Paste Magazine’s “Top 25 Shows at SXSW 2013, the Soft White Sixties are increasingly gaining recognition for their infectious live performance. Since 2010 they have been perfecting their sound, appropriately dubbed working class soul—a gritty edge to modern pop.

They mix their vast influences into a hard-hitting and confident force reminiscent of classic R&B and rock ’n’ roll but with a contemporary sensibility. Octavio Genera (vocals), Aaron Eisenberg (guitar/keys), Ryan Noble (bass) and Joey Bustos (drums) combine soulful melodies, deep grooves and fuzzed-out hooks to form a completely distinct sound. An anticipated forthcoming album titled Get Right is due out in the near future. Produced by Jim Greer (known for his recent work with Foster the People), the new record offers a sonic diary of the band’s last two years: an organic collection of soul-driven anthems, heartfelt choruses, sticky grooves and clever arrangements. Like the object after which the Soft White Sixties are named, this band shines.

Sonido Clash Sonido Clash is a collective of like-minded, cutting-edge DJs and musicians pushing the boundaries of modern Latin dance music. They mix traditional Latin genres like cumbia and merengue with electronica and hip-hop. The collective includes Silicon Valley’s own Philthy Drones, Turbo Sonidero Futuristico, Raul y Mexia and Chatos 1013.

Soulful Obsession What began as a simple karaoke night out with friends at 7 Bamboo Lounge in San Jose’s Downtown soon led to one of the city’s liveliest and most eclectic hip-hop/soul/R&B mashups, Soulful Obsession. Lily Tran, Bennett Roth-Newell, Veno Bender and Kosuke Okamura officially formed the band in August 2011 while attending San Jose State University. These four multitalented individuals unleash their artistic creative abilities by collectively writing and producing all of their original songs.

You’ll hear a diverse range of sounds influenced by classic artists Ray Charles, Stevie Wonder, Bill Withers, Etta James and Ella Fitzgerald, and contemporary acts including Amy Winehouse, John Legend, Beyonce, Jamie Cullum, Lauryn Hill, Robin Thicke and the Roots.

Stumblebunny Stumblebunny is a NYC-based band that formed in 1976 with Chris Robison (the New York Dolls, Elephant's Memory) on vocals, keyboard, guitar; David White (The Hollies, Donny Hathaway) on vocals and guitar; Peter Jordan (the New York Dolls, the Nite Caps) on bass; and Sammy Brown (the Nite Caps) on drums. The band was created on the fly by Robison, who was released from the New York Dolls touring lineup, and shortly thereafter released cult classic Max's Kansas City in early 1977. It’s party rock ’n’ roll at its finest.

Talky Tina Formed in 2009, Talky Tina is what happens when San Jose music scene fixtures Dave Miller and Dave Conrad (Odd Numbers) recruit Scott Cofer (Spitmuffins, Parasites)

to play a little rock ‘n’ roll. The result is a modern take on classic punk rock and power pop. Following 2010s Don’t Go EP, the Never Was EP came out in early 2012 and was quickly followed that summer by an eponymous full-length.

The crowd Friday at Café Stritch will be deep for the Lemonheads but it would be wise to arrive early to catch these local favorites.

Teeko While Teeko’s notoriety over the last decade may come from his superhuman turntablist repertoire—DMC, ITF and Guitar Center champion, co-creator of the Vestax Controller One, recording for Mark Ronson, D’Angelo and others—his creative prowess naturally extends to his work as a keyboardist, writer and producer. He has also received accolades from the world-renowned Berklee School of Music in Boston, receiving the Milestones Innovative Producer’s Award. Teeko has also been recognized by the prestigious Monterey Jazz Festival, being the first DJ/ Turntablist invited to perform. All in all, the man is at one with his art, no matter what his device, and his sound continues to take exciting new shapes while effortlessly blowing minds and breaking necks.

Tera Melos From Sacramento, Tera Melos incorporates many styles of rock, jazz, ambient electronica and unconventional song structure. They are currently a three-piece, consisting of a guitarist/keyboardist/vocalist, bassist and a drummer.

Tera Melos play a brand of music characterized by quickly alternating rhythmic patterns, start-stop dynamics, improvisation, two-handed tapping on the guitar, extended open-ended bridges and the use of effect pedals and samplers. Though the band has typically eschewed the label of math rock, they are considered recent innovators of the genre.

The Bang The Bang go beyond retro nostalgia to reinvigorate the classic girl group sound with sassy, sultry, sexy and sophisticated tunes. Angeline King and Rachel Mae Havens offer vivacious vocals that channel the classic sounds of the 1960s, including the Brill Building’s tales of teenage heartbreak, Tamla/Motown’s elegant R&B microsymphonies and the foot-stomping Memphis soul of Stax.

In addition to fresh takes on classics, they also blend in a large measure of original songs that sound timeless with a modern edge. The four instrumentalists who share the stage with the duo are much more than just a backing band.

Led by guitarist Derek See, the quartet, including bassist Jafar Green, drummer Richard Gutierrez and keyboardist Curtis Meacham, has the “four bodies-one mind” sense of rhythm that that makes the whole package work. When they lay into a classic number like “In The Basement,” an obscure gem like “Hold On” or one of their own skillfully composed originals like “Drink In Hand,” you can be forgiven if your feet make a fleet retreat from your seat onto the dance floor.

MUSIC ARTISTS The Burning of Rome

The Limousines

Frontman Adam Traub grew up in San Diego and by at age 15 was already playing guitar in the punk band Nobody’s Hero, signed to Arista Records. It all came to a halt when he was diagnosed with a rare muscular disorder in both legs and he was thrown into a world of medical chaos.

Seven surgeries and six titanium bolts later, Traub was faced with a long grueling recovery. During that time he would play an old upright piano and would hobble over to figure out Beatles songs. The Beatles eventually turned to Chopin. Chopin eventually turned into Thelonious Monk. And Thelonious eventually turned into The Burning of Rome. “As a songwriter, music is a therapeutic way for me to cope with the world around me,” he says. “Ever since I was a child, I felt like an alien visiting earth and had (and still have) difficulty understanding what makes people normal. I opted to rebel against the norm through music; it was the only thing that made sense to me. “

Eric Victorino and Gio Giusti didn’t plan on making hit records when they started the Limousines. It was the most DIY project possible, with the two of them trading Giusti’s beats and Victorino’s back and forth on their laptops, simply looking for the ultimate in unadulterated artistic expression. Victorino in particular was burnt out on the pursuit of rock ’n’ roll stardom after the major-label headaches of his previous band Strata. But their infectious electronic rock and the blunt honesty of their lyrics offered something unique in the retro-80s landscape of postPassion Pit modern rock, and they built a big following with the singles “Very Busy People” and “Internet Killed the Video Star.” They’re now one of the most successful groups— perhaps, second only to Dredg—still making new music in Silicon Valley.

The JurassiC

The New Trust is a co-ed Bay Area punk band that for the last 10 years has been bashing out unique, melody-driven love songs. For the New Trust, however, “love song” might be a misnomer since both lyrically and musically the band has more in common with groups like Shellac, Neurosis or Party of Helicopters than other sappy indie rock bands pouring their hearts out. Over the span of 10 years and five albums, the New Trust has managed to tour with bands as diverse as Loma Prieta and Ampere to These Arms Are Snakes, Smoking Popes and Minus the Bear, along the way learning every lesson that three people could possibly learn about being in a band.

Take funk, jazz and pop music and put it in a blender. Add a dash of soul, and you are deep in the groove of The JurassiC. After the band’s release of their first self-titled EP in March 2012, The JurassiC has plugged their sound into a 70s funk machine, twisting pocket bass lines and jazz drums with a backbeat, with colorful improvisational melodies and sweet punch-packing vocals. Their most recent EP Follow Me beautifully illustrates this combination.

This colorful South Bay group started from jazz roots and found its original sound by mashing classic songs with hip-hop beats. Bandleader Jackie Gage is an up-andcoming songbird known for her smooth vocals and funky renditions of popular songs. Guitarist Chris Main’s love for the blues sneaks out in his solos and heart-pounding strum patterns. Drummer Bennett “Maestro Bennett” RothNewell adds some drama with jazz-inspired fills, and multiinstrumentalist Will Bohrer’s bass lines bring head-bobbing energy to the room.

The Lemonheads To say that Evan Dando is one of the best songwriters of his generation would sound preposterous to anyone who knows the Lemonheads only for, say, their hit cover of “Mrs. Robinson.” And yet, over the course of his career— especially on the unofficial trilogy It’s a Shame About Ray, Come on Feel the Lemonheads and Car Button Cloth—no one has so sublimely combined post-punk energy, alt-rock songcraft and pure pop like Evan Dando. Influenced not just by the heavy early indie rockers like Husker Dü, but also by modern troubadours like Gram Parsons and Townes Van Zandt, Dando’s music is both epic in its layers of sound and extremely personal in its lyrics.

The New Trust

The Phenomenauts The Phenomenauts perform a science-fiction inspired mix of punk rock, garage and new wave. Combined with compelling antics and theatrics, the group’s message is a call to arms to defenders of science and honor across the galaxy, dealing with the serious implications of science fiction and science fact, and offering new perspectives on Earth life as we know it. Conceived in the amazing year 2000, the group got early recognition as “the East Bay’s craftiest and bravest band” for their now infamous commando-style performances in which they would set up in front of large music venues such as the legendary Fillmore and perform rollicking sets powered by car batteries for unsuspecting crowds.

The Revival featuring Julius Papp & The Selecter DJ Kirk The Revival featuring Julius Papp & The Selecter DJ Kirk specializes in “luxury soul”—handpicked modern soul spanning the entire modern soul era from the 1970 until now, with a lean toward the underplayed, uncovered and newly discovered soul gems for the discerning soul music enthusiast. It’s a perfect match for those who long for the vibe of the acid jazz era, where underground soul was constantly shared by DJs, performers and at parties.

MUSIC ARTISTS The She’s

Torches

The She’s are four natives of San Francisco who grew up as best friends in a city brimming with music. Inspired by their surroundings, each other, boredom and surfer boys, they began writing and performing their own brand of West Coast. A chance encounter with Girls frontman Christopher Owens led to their first big gig opening for the band at the Fillmore. It’s been a fast uphill climb for the band ever since.

Torches are a rock outfit that have been hypnotizing and swooning the Los Angeles scene. Singer/guitarist Azad Cheikosman and bassist Bridgette Moody formed the band during what was a relationship. Azad and drummer Eric Fabbro had been bashing away at their instruments in a hot and sweaty garage for about five years before she came in to lay down the root. The band previously consisted of five members, but went down to a more cohesive power trio.

Bridgette learned how to play bass the same week that the band was set to play a show in Los Angeles back in 2010.

The Trims After forming in 2009, San Jose alt-rockers the Trims got their first big break in 2011, earning the opening spot on the local stage at Live 105's BFD festival. And "earning" is the operative word—to get on the bill, they had to win the radio station's Local Band Contest. That meant they were one of 20 Bay Area bands Live 105 selected from more than 200 demo submissions. The exposure helped catapult the band from local favorites into the national arena with a sound reminiscent of early Strokes and the Britpop of the 90s, while also conjuring the swagger of artists like Joy Division.

Blend that style with over-sexed lyrics about all things scandalous, and you have the identity that defines The Trims.

Thee Oh Sees One of the most popular bands to emerge from San Francisco in recent years, Thee Oh Sees were favorites at Coachella and SXSW this year. The band is the latest incarnation of songwriter, singer and guitarist John Dwyer’s ever-evolving pop-folk psychedelic projects. Dwyer, who hails from Providence, R.I., has been active on the San Francisco indie scene since the late ’90s, working with several bands, including the Coachwhips, Pink & Brown, Yikes, Up Its Alive and Swords & Sandals, among others. He formed OCS (which is an acronym for Orinoka Crash Suite, Orange County Sound or whatever Dwyer decided it was on any given day) initially as a vehicle for the experimental instrumentals he was producing in his home studio. In time OCS morphed into an actual band, and worked under the usual flurry of names, most notably Thee Oh Sees, featuring Dwyer on guitar and vocals, Brigid Dawson on vocals and tambourine, Petey Dammit on bass and Mike Shoun on drums.

Trails and Ways When people think of world music, they tend to think of Malian ngoni music, cumbias from Colombia or even K-Pop, but in general people don’t think of lo-fi indie rock. Trails and Ways may change that. The indie-pop quartet crafts a dreamy lo-fi sound with a decidedly global spin. The band members met each other while studying at UC Berkeley, but before starting a band, the members traveled to Brazil and Spain seemingly collecting flamenco and bossa nova beats the way other tourists pick up souvenirs in gift shops. After returning to the Bay Area, the group began putting out samba-inflected indie pop with deep roots in the California sound, including “Mtn Tune,” which was one of the best summer songs of 2012.

Vinroc Founder of ThatsThatlabel.com, a former world champion DJ and arguably one of the most versatile DJ/producers in the US, Vinroc (a.k.a. Vincent Punsalan) started his career in music at the age of 10, but discovered his passion for it through DJing. Growing up across the river from Manhattan in Jersey City via Queens, he was influenced by the melting pot of music that New York City had to offer. With a taste for hip-hop, house, dancehall and everything else in between, Vinroc relocated to the West Coast in 1997. In the Bay Area he began working and performing with some of the most celebrated DJs in the music industry. He’s a veteran of tour dates alongside DJ Z-trip, the Beat Junkies, Kid Kapri, Dj Qbert and Mix Master Mike, among others.

Tom Dick and Harry

Workout DJs

Tom Dick and Harry were one of the finest San Francisco bands of the acid jazz era. Incorporating northern soul, Philly soul, UK street soul and jazz funk, they put it all together with masterful musicianship, nicely crafted soul songs and a captivating live show. Between 1991 and 1997, TDH played many venues, including The Great American Music Hall, Bimbo’s, Slim’s, 330 Ritch Street, Ajax Lounge and the Elbo Room. Comprising four core members—Jon Waters (vocals/keys), Steve Burke (vocals/guitar), Craig Garvey (bass) and Ihor Pacholuk (drums)—TDH often incorporates horns and percussion to fill the stage with a magic touched upon by few. Check out their album Blue, released in 1996, featuring the great Phil Upchurch and 10 can’t-miss soul tracks including “Pennies From Heaven,” “I’ll Be There” and “Rainsong.”

DJ Basura, DJ Artthief, DJ Rokwell, DJ Kidlove and DJ Johnatron bring nothing but the best electro, indie, house and disco beats to the party at C2SV.

REVIEW

SAID TOO MUCH Masseuse Eva (Julia Louis-Dreyfus) enjoys dating Albert (James GandolďŹ ni)â&#x20AC;&#x201D;until a client, whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Albertâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s exâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;starts sharing her opinions.

Smilers and Knives INITIALLY MORE notable as the last of James GandolďŹ ni than the latest by Nicole Holofcener (Please Give, Walking and Talking), Enough Said is a sweet, intelligent moral comedy that grows on you. The hard work Julia Louis-Dreyfus does to ďŹ ll the part of Eva pays offâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;she escapes the shadow of Elaine Benes.

In one wounded moment outside a restaurant, grieving over the failure of her ďŹ rst marriage, we see the rawest acting Louis-Dreyfus has ever done. She can be over-vivacious hereâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;a life in sitcoms takes its toll. But she is playing a person who puts a high premium on niceness.

Eva is a freelance masseuse, hauling her heavy massage table to the homes of well-off Los Angeles clients. At a fancy party, she meets a pleasantly bearish archivist, Albert (GandolďŹ ni). They end up in bed, and Eva is surprised to ďŹ nd out how much she enjoys itâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;she hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t considered a man with that much belly on him as potential lover material.

Albert turns out to be the ex-husband of Evaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s newest client, a noted poet named Marianne (Catherine Keener), a woman who is everything Eva would like to beâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; and the poetâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s endless dismissive talk of Albertâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ďŹ&#x201A;aws begins to turn Eva against her new boyfriend.

The author of Rich the Fruit, Marianne is played by Keener with a windblown, russet mane and kaftanoid clothing.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a dead-on satire of the Eat Pray Love class of writer. Production designer Keith P. Cunningham, better known for blockbusters, erects a Enough Said wicked parody of a certain kind of Santa Monica lair PG-13; 91 min. for Marianneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s homeâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;a Balinese/Buddhist temple Opens Fri. with swimming pool lagoon, cracking under the weight of throw-pillows.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a farce situation, but Holofcener doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t force it. The witty lines sidle by.

And GandolďŹ niâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s slitty-eyed, self-amused acting gives this slip of a story gravity.

Heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quite wrenching to watch. What impact would this movie have had if some other lesser comedy bear had taken the role? I think the answer is â&#x20AC;&#x153;someâ&#x20AC;?â&#x20AC;&#x201D; Holofcener examines the way women will sometimes do anything to keep the esteem of other women, even women they might not care for much, and thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not a common subject in ďŹ lms.

And when the couples draw their verbal knives on each other, there are edges on the weapons.â&#x20AC;&#x201D;Richard von Busack

THE STRAIGHT DOPE

By CECIL ADAMS

CECIL@METRONEWS.COM

percent more likely to be awake at 7am and 3.5 percent more likely to be at work by 8am. The variance was more striking at night. At 11pm local time, the researchers write, “people in the center of the country are 10 percentage points more likely to be asleep than people on the coasts.”

To be clear, TV isn’t the only cue involved here. People in the Pacific time zone are around 5 percent more likely to be awake at 7am than those in the Eastern zone, no doubt because a lot of them have to be on the horn with people in New York who’ve been up for hours.

At night, however, TV rules. On the coasts, where the choice is between catching a few more Zs, thereby improving your health, or watching one last show, people tend to choose TV. How does this translate into productivity? Hard to say—while Easterners started work a little later than those in the Central time zone, researchers also found they were more likely to work over lunch, possibly erasing any productivity gap.

Fortunately—at least for the purposes of this column—we have Indiana. Until a 2006 law mandated daylight saving time statewide, three different time schemes were employed within its confines: most of the state's counties were on Eastern time but didn't observe DST, while others were on either Eastern or Central but did have DST, thus providing a unique laboratory for time zone research. One analysis of Indiana SAT results from 1997 to 2006 found a clear correlation between local time policy and students' scores, but didn't think the issue was Eastern vs. Central; it was that kids in DST counties scored lower. Never mind productivity—as the authors put it: “Starkly expressed, DST appears to cause brain damage.”

I respectfully suggest this conclusion needs to be revisited. If asked what’s most likely to cause brain damage: daylight saving time, watching TV, or living in Indiana, I ain’t going with DST.

Until recently, television viewers were at the whim of network executives when it came to scheduling—most had to stay up until 11pm to catch the full slate of prime-time programming. The exceptions were those in the Central time zone. Since network programming begins and ends an hour earlier there, viewers could get to bed sooner and get more shuteye. Since productivity is dependent on adequate sleep, are (or were) our mid-American brethren more productive than the night owls on the coasts, thanks to TV? —TVC

You’re thinking: Silly question. Even conceding that DVRs, streaming video, and other time-shifting advances have now freed countless viewers from the TV schedule's tyranny, so many things factor into productivity that trying to pin any differences on sleep variations is bound to be hopeless.

Sure enough, I haven’t been able to find any proof that the early-to-bed-earlyto-rise folk in the middle of the country are noticeably healthier, wealthier, or wiser than those on the coasts. But you know what? Time-shifting technology notwithstanding, they do get more sleep.

To review the basics: In the days of radio, broadcasts in the Eastern and Central time zones were simultaneous (making nominal scheduled times in Central one hour earlier), shows were rebroadcast three hours later to the Pacific zone (making nominal scheduled times in Eastern and Pacific the same), and nobody worried much about the thinly populated Mountain zone. When TV arrived, it became customary for Mountain zone outlets to delay the New York feed for an hour (making nominal scheduled times in Central and Mountain the same). This practice persists today: prime time is from 8 till 11pm in the Eastern and Pacific zones and from 7 till 10 in Central and Mountain, with some local variation.

In a 2006 study, researchers examined 35,000 time-use diaries of Americans collected by the Bureau of Labor Statistics over two years. Several variables were examined for their effect on sleep and work schedule, including sunset time, marital status, age, children, and occupation. There were some predictable variations: farmers tend to get up notably early, for example.

Here’s the interesting thing, though. Sunrise and sunset, which are determined by the rotation and axial tilt of the planet, for God’s sake, have minimal impact on Americans’ schedules, even taking nominal clock differences into account. The big factor is TV. Overall, folks in the Central and Mountain time zones were around 4

SANTA CRUZ WEEKLY PRESENTS THE FIFTH ANNUAL

ADVICE GODDESS

AdviceAmy@AOL.com I’ve missed countless opportunities because I fail to speak up in the moment. A pretty girl smiles at me on the bus. Ten minutes later, I will wish I’d stayed on the bus and struck up a conversation. The same thing happens with business opportunities. At the critical moment I need to act, I go into a fog of some kind, weighing my options. Much later, I’ll realize that gold was put in my lap, and I’ll endure a lot of shame from not being present enough to recognize that. I’m all man when I have a girlfriend (which I don’t now) and will do anything to make her feel secure. But because of my problem with seizing opportunity, I’m much lonelier than I need to be. I’m realizing that I’m an irretrievable mental defective.—Hopeless You diagnose yourself: “I’m an irretrievable mental defective.” Um, no—probably just a drama queen with risk aversion jets set a little high. Your freezing in the face of opportunity is probably due to an “approachavoidance conflict,” a type of inactionproducing psychological stress that occurs when an opportunity has both positive and negative aspects that make it simultaneously appealing and offputting. For example, with the girl on the bus, there’s a possible date versus a possible rejection. The closer (and more possible) the opportunity the larger the negative aspects loom. This leads to indecision and, in turn, inaction. When you have some distance (say, a few hours after you get off the pretty girl express bus), the positive aspects take center stage, and going for it seems the thing to do. Only then, this no longer takes a nervous “hello” across the bus aisle; you need one of those “missed connection” ads and $3,000 for a private detective.

By AMY ALKON

You need to practice opportunityspotting and preplan what you’ll do when it knocks so you won’t respond like a bratty preteen girl: “Go away! Nobody’s home. I hate you!” Recognizing opportunity takes knowing your goals. Articulate them, and then identify five opportunities a day and seize at least two of them.

This requires simply taking action despite your indecision. Step back and do a little cost-benefit analysis.

If, say, you’d talked to the girl on the bus, worst-case scenario, she might’ve glared back at you, giving you an ouchie in the ego for what, 10 minutes? Doing nothing leaves you with lasting regret, shame, and selfloathing. Doing nothing repeatedly should help you get a headstart on becoming a bitter old man, thanks to all the years you’ve invested standing near the ladder of success yet never once having a woman in a bikini shinny down and hand you a mai tai.

Why does my girlfriend say she loves me more than I love her? There’s no anger behind it; she says it teasingly. But it’s making me uncomfortable and a little annoyed. I’m beginning to wonder whether I love her enough. I mean, I thought I did.—Bugged

“I love you more than you love me!” is just the thing to say to a boyfriend—if you want him to take you in his arms so he can look over your shoulder for your replacement. The problem with the subtext—“You know, you could probably do better”—is the “principle of least interest,” sociologist Willard Waller’s 1938 theory that the relationship partner who is less emotionally invested calls the shots.

Even if that less committed partner isn’t an exploitative creep, he’s likely to get his way in ways he wouldn’t in a more equal partnership, and Waller felt this didn’t bode well for the relationship.

Current research supports this. Social psychologist Susan Sprecher, for example, found that unequally involved

partners were less satisfied with their relationship and more likely to break up.

If you aren’t already eyeing the door, ask your girlfriend whether there’s a problem—maybe something she needs that she isn’t getting from you.

If she’s just playfully needling you, tell her you need her to stop. It’s okay, in a relationship, to ask that a phrase or two be a no-go zone. This “I love you more than you love me!” business, for example, is a cousin of the lose-lose question, “Do I look fat in this dress?” There is a right response to that question, and it isn’t “Yes, come to think of it,” “No!” or “No, you look like a cow landing with the world’s largest parachute”; it’s hiring somebody to be there to clock you with a tire iron before you can answer.

You’ll just naturally know what to do to make your collaborative efforts synergistic. So by all means cash in on this potential. Don’t just sit back and hope for the best; rather, call on your imagination to provide you with original ideas about how to make it all happen.

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Would you be willing to go to extraordinary lengths to transform aspects of your life that you have felt are hard to transform?

Now would be a good time to do that. Luck will flow your way if you work on healing your number one wound. Unexpected help and inspiration will appear if you administer tough love to any part of you that’s addicted, immature, or unconscious. Barriers will crumple if you brainstorm about new ways to satisfy your frustrated yearnings.

levels will decline in the coming weeks. Fears you take for granted won’t make nearly as much sense as they usually seem to. As a result, you’ll be tempted to wriggle free from your defense mechanisms. Useful ideas that your mind has been closed to may suddenly tantalize your curiosity. I won’t be surprised if you start tuning into catalysts that had previously been invisible to you. But here are my questions: Can you deal with losing the motivational force that fear gives you? Will you be able to get inspired by grace and pleasure rather than anxiety and agitation? I advise you to work hard on raising your trust levels.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): “Sometimes people have nothing to say because they’re too empty,” writes author Yasmin Mogahed, “and sometimes people have nothing to say because they’re too full.” By my reckoning, Cancerian, you will soon be in the latter category. A big silence is settling over you as new amusements and amazements rise up within you. It will be understandable if you feel reluctant to blab about them. They need more time to ripen. You should trust your impulse to remain a secret and a mystery for a while.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): “Insight is not a light bulb

that goes off inside our heads,” says author Malcolm Gladwell. “It is a flickering candle that can easily be snuffed out.” Take that as a constructive warning, Leo. On the one hand, I believe you will soon glimpse quite a few new understandings of how the world works and what you could do to make it serve you better. On the other hand, you’ve got to be extra alert for these new understandings and committed to capturing them the moment they pop up. Articulate them immediately.

If you’re alone, talk to yourself about them. Maybe even write them down. Don’t just assume you will be able to remember them perfectly later when it’s more convenient.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): After a storm, British

wildlife lover Gary Zammit found a baby heron cowering in a broken nest. Its parents were dead.

Zammit took the orphan under his wing. He named it Dude, and cared for it as it grew. Eventually he realized that Dude was never going to learn to fly unless he intervened. Filling his pockets full of the food that Dude loved, Zammit launched a series of flying lessons—waving his arms and squawking as he ran along a flat meadow that served as a runway. Dude imitated his human dad, and soon mastered the art of flight. Can you see ways in which this story might have metaphorical resemblances to your own life, Virgo? I think it does. It’s time for your mind to teach your body an instinctual skill or self-care habit that it has never quite gotten right.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): For four days twice a year, the East China Sea recedes to create a narrow strip of land between two Korean islands, Jindo and Modo. People celebrate the “Sea-Parting Festival” by strolling back and forth along the temporary path. The phenomenon has been called the “Korean version of Moses’ miracle,” although it’s more reasonably explained by the action of the tides. I foresee some sweet marvel akin to this one occurring in your life very soon, Libra. Be ready to take advantage of a special dispensation.

By ROB BREZSNY week of September 25

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): The desire for revenge

is a favorite theme of the entertainment industry.

It’s presented as being glamorous and stirring and even noble. How many action films build their plots around the hero seeking payback against his enemies?

Personally, I see revenge as one of the top three worst emotions. In real life, it rarely has redeeming value.

People who actively express it often wreak pain and ruin on both others and themselves. Even those who merely stew in it may wound themselves by doing so.

I bring this up, Scorpio, because now is an excellent time for you to shed desires for revenge. Dissolve them, get rid of them, talk yourself out of indulging in them. The reward for doing so will be a great liberation.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): Just for a few days, would you be willing to put your attention on the needs of others more than on your own? The weird thing is, your selfish interests will be best served by being as unselfish and empathetic and compassionate as you can stand to be. I don’t mean that you should allow yourself to be abused or taken advantage of.

Your task is to express an abundance of creative generosity as you bestow your unique blessings in ways that make you feel powerful. In the words of theologian Frederick Buechner, you should go “to the place where your deep gladness and the world’s deep hunger meet.”

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Imagine a scenario

like this: The CEOs of five crazily rich U.S. corporations, including a major defense contractor, stage a press conference to announce that in the future they will turn down the massive welfare benefits and tax breaks the federal government has been doling out to them all these years. Now picture this: The Pope issues a statement declaring that since Jesus Christ never had a single bad word to say about homosexuals, the Catholic Church is withdrawing its resistance to gay rights. I am envisioning a comparable reversal in your life, Capricorn—a flip-flop that seems equally improbable. But unlike the two I named, yours will actually unfold in the course of the next eight months.

If it hasn’t already started yet, it will soon.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Matteo Ricci was

an Italian Jesuit priest who lived from 1552 to 1610.

For his last 28 years, he worked as a missionary in China. Corresponding with his friends and family back home required a lot of patience. News traveled very slowly. Whenever he sent out a letter, he was aware that there’d be no response for seven years. What would you express about your life right now if you knew your dear ones wouldn’t learn of it until 2017?

Imagine describing to them in an old-fashioned letter what your plans will be between now and then . . . what you hope to accomplish and how you will transform yourself. Right now is an excellent time to take inventory of your long-term future.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): The cosmos is granting

you a poetic license to practice the art of apodyopsis with great relish. You know what apodyopsis is, right?

It refers to the act of envisioning people naked— mentally undressing them so as to picture them in their raw state. So, yes, by all means, Pisces, enjoy this creative use of your imagination without apology. It should generate many fine ramifications. For instance, it will prime you to penetrate beneath the surface of things. It will encourage you to see through everyone’s social masks and tune in to what’s really going on in their depths. You need to do that right now.
