I have an ‘old school’ love of reading a real hand-held newspaper. I’m tired of what I hear on newscasts and radio interviews using trite phraseologies about ‘divides,’ ‘pushbacks’ and ‘Our thoughts and prayers go with you’ and like ‘My pleasure,’ ‘That’s a good question,’ ‘Thanks for having me.’ I especially like and look forward to reading the Pacific Sun and deeply appreciate your balanced coverage of matters of local, national and international interest and concern.

I am responding to a letter that was published called “Service Animals” that was in the Pac Sun paper recently [May 17]. I was homeless in the economic recession back in 2011 and had trouble getting back into school due to an untreated mental illness which I was unaware of at the time. I had found a starving pit bull on Haight Street and immediately traded an REI coat off my back to save her. She loved the outdoors so much, that when the police took her from me and put her in the Humane Society, she was adopted out. The family kept her inside and deprived her of all the much-needed social interaction with other dogs
and people so much that she jumped out of a second-story window of the family’s house and ran from Novato to the Marin Humane Society. I understand and have sympathy for your concerns for the health of other homeless peoples’ animals, but not everyone is unable to take care of them even if they are homeless. In fact, most dogs are much healthier being outdoors and are psychologically healthier and live much longer than dogs who are locked inside of suburban homes, for example. Also to comment on your point about people claiming to have service dogs when they ‘clearly are not’ is valid to a degree; some veterans and other mental health patients have service animals for their ability to feel needed by having to take care of someone besides themselves, thus giving them self-esteem, confidence, love, etc. People with service animals should also know the limits of their dog’s behavior and should be courteous enough to put them on the leash at times when they must respect other people’s space and well-being. I do not have my dog any longer, because I eventually got to go back to school full-time and maintained a more stable life. I felt it would be better if she was with someone who could give her more time and attention and allow her to live the life she was accustomed to, which was a life outdoors—a life on the street. Thank you for keeping an open mind. —Kim Slater

▼ Should we trash textbooks or hold them for the nonprofit Global Book Exchange in Terra Linda? Unbelievably, Dixie Elementary School in San Rafael chose the first option upon hearing that the exchange was temporarily full. Some parents took to Nextdoor, a community website, to voice their objections about the school squandering the books by placing them in a recycling receptacle. We add reckless and irreverent to that charge, especially when the local Global Book Exchange exists solely to rehome used K-12 textbooks and children’s books with teachers, families and young people here in Marin and around the world. Due to the justified backlash the school received, Dixie will now store books until the exchange is able to receive them. That’s a smart idea.—Nikki Silverstein

The controversial Jordan Cove Energy Project, proposed by Veresen, a Canadian company, would ship natural gas from the Rocky Mountains to Asia, via a liquefied natural gas terminal.
Pipelines & Battle Lines
A proposed fracked gas pipeline in Oregon threatens West Coast water By Will Parrish
O
n a rainy weekday afternoon last November, about 20 people from Northern California joined a 200-person rally outside the Oregon capitol in Salem. They had assembled partly in support of the struggle against the Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL) in North Dakota. In the weeks prior, police on the northern Great Plains had inflicted beatings on anti-DAPL protesters, shot hundreds with concussion grenades and rubber bullets and even deployed militarysurplus equipment such as armored vehicles and a long-range acoustic device, a noisy crowd-control device that reportedly shattered at least one person’s eardrums.
The main focus of the Salem demonstration, however, was an infrastructure project similar to the DAPL but much closer to home. Spurred by the newfound ability to extract vast shale deposits from the Rocky Mountains’ western slopes via hydraulic fracturing (fracking), a Canadian oil and gas company named Veresen has proposed to ship natural gas from the Rockies west to Asian markets via a newly constructed liquefied natural gas (LNG) terminal in Coos Bay, Ore., where gas would be chilled and liquefied for easier and cheaper storage and transport. Known as the Jordan Cove Energy Project ( JCEP), it would be the first Pacific Coast LNG terminal.
The terminal would be supplied by the 233-mile Pacific Connector Gas Pipeline, which would originate at a natural gas transport hub near Malin, Ore., and snake beneath five major rivers on its way to Coos Bay. One river beneath which the pipeline would be plumbed is the mighty Klamath, which rises in southern Oregon and meets the ocean roughly 240 miles away at the Humboldt-Del Norte county lines. At the rally, indigenous people from the Klamath Basin talked about building a stronger interstate alliance against the project. “We gotta help our neighbors, the Oregonians!” said a Hoopa Valley tribal member who identified herself as Missy and who lives along
the Klamath River in Northern California, into a bullhorn. “They may not know they need our help. But they need our help!” Missy then pondered whether opposition to the JCEP would require a direct-action campaign similar to the one at Standing Rock. “I look at what’s going on over at Standing Rock, and it makes me scared. But if we have to do the same thing here, will you do that with us here?” she asked. The crowd let out an affirmative whoop.
Frack Attack
The nationwide boom in fracking has fostered numerous proposals to push oil and natural gas out to coastal ports through newly constructed pipelines,
thing gets approved,” he says, “we’re going to call tribes from all over the U.S., Mexico and Canada, to ask for solidarity.”
7
A Long Time Coming
The struggle concerning the JCEP has been ongoing for more than a decade. The Federal Energy Regulatory Commission first considered Jordan Cove in 2007. Back then, it was proposed as an import project, which would have funneled gas from Russia or the Middle East to consumers on the West Coast, especially California. In 2009, FERC issued a permit, but vacated the decision in 2012 as import prospects sank. Then the meltdown at Japan’s Fukushima power plant created a different opportunity. After the disaster, Japan and other Asia Pacific countries began phasing out nuclear power and replacing it mostly with LNG. In 2013, a Veresen subsidiary resubmitted an application to FERC that re-envisioned Jordan Cove as an export terminal that could ship 1 billion cubic feet of gas a day. That’s enough to meet 8 percent of Japan’s current demand. A March 2016 FERC order denying the application noted that Veresen and its partner at the time, Williams Companies of Oklahoma, failed to prove that adequate demand for its product exists in Asia and also noted the “significant opposition from directly-impacted landowners.” In September, Trump alluded to the JCEP on the campaign trail, during a speech to an oil and gas drilling conference in Pittsburgh, FERC’s failure to support it as an alleged example of “the Obama/ Clinton restriction agenda.” In February, Trump appointed Veresen CEO Don Althoff as a member of his “infrastructure team” that is developing recommendations on moving major building projects more quickly through regulatory reviews. He is in the process of nominating three new members to the five-member FERC, one of whom, Pennsylvania Public Utility Commissioner Robert Powelson, a Republican, has stated that people opposing pipeline projects are engaged in a “jihad.” For most of the past decade, landowners along the pipeline rightof-way have been the backbone of an opposition movement to it.
A recent demonstration in Salem, Oregon protesting the Jordan Cove Energy Project echoed the Standing Rock and the Dakota Access Pipeline controversy in North Dakota.
This opposition runs the political gamut and includes conservatives concerned with private property rights and the damage to the land. “This company, Veresen, has no concept of what the land means to us,” says Bill Gow, who labels himself a reluctant Donald Trump supporter and who owns a 2,500acre ranch in Myrtle Creek, Ore., which the pipeline would cut through. “We didn’t choose to live in these places for the money, but that’s all the company cares about.” Opponents note the economic damage the project would wreak on landowners along the pipeline route, as well as the far greater number of jobs that would result from investments in renewable energy. Moreover, the Jordan Cove terminal would be built in a region vulnerable to tsunamis and earthquakes, while the pipeline, full of high-pressure gas, would pass through an area with a high risk of wildfires. The pipeline would also entail a 100-foot-wide linear clear cut across more than 60 miles of mature second- and oldgrowth forests. Other critics cite climate change as an overriding concern. Since the turn of the millennium, the planet has burned through global temperature records, meaning the
sorts of harrowing scenarios climate scientists have long predicted—such as rising seas that swallow up cities, more wrathful storms and droughts and an accelerating decline in global biodiversity—are increasingly close at hand or already occurring. While natural gas is often touted as a cleaner burning energy source than coal, fracking wells have been documented to leak substantial amounts of methane, a powerful greenhouse gas that makes gas-fired electricity a worse contributor to the global climate crisis than coal. By giving Western producers access to the world’s largest gas market (consisting of Japan, the biggest consumer, South Korea, Taiwan and other Asia-Pacific countries), the JCEP could set off a new drilling boom on public lands, particularly in the Piceance Basin of the Rocky Mountains. In a shocking announcement last July, the U.S. Geological Survey deemed the western Colorado gas basin to have the second largest reserve of recoverable natural gas in the United States. The announcement thrilled the region’s political and business leaders, who are increasingly clamoring for the JCEP’s approval.

but resistance to these plans is also increasing, in part because thousands of people who visited Standing Rock last fall returned home and took up local fights. In 2016, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) twice rejected Veresen’s applications to build the JCEP. Leaders of Donald Trump’s administration, however, have vowed to see the project through. At a presentation to the Institute of International Finance forum in Washington on April 20, Gary Cohn, director of the White House National Economic Council (and former Goldman Sachs president), vowed that Trump will step up approvals for LNG export terminals in the name of boosting the U.S. economy, and then specifically referred to the Jordan Cove project. “The first thing we’re going to do is we’re going to permit an LNG export facility in the Northwest,” Cohn said. California has a critical link to the JCEP: The 680-mile Ruby Pipeline, completed in 2011, which delivers the natural gas from the Rocky Mountain gas fields—the Jonah Field in Wyoming, the Piceance Basin in Colorado, the Uintah Basin in northern Utah—to Oregon. Northern California’s main electricity supplier, PG&E, is one of three companies that helped build the Ruby Pipeline and remains a part owner of it. PG&E’s network of pipelines deliver Ruby Pipeline gas to the North Bay and other regions of the Golden State. The Pacific Connector Gas Pipeline, too, would tie into the Ruby Pipeline, without which the JCEP could not be built. Opponents of the JCEP are mounting increasing pressure on Oregon’s elected officials to stop the project, but even the state’s Democratic Party leaders have either embraced the JCEP or stood aside. So far, a combination of grassroots opposition and questionable economics have combined to delay the project, and now many opponents are talking about the possibility of mounting a massive direct action civil disobedience campaign. Perry Chocktoot, a member of the Klamath Tribal Council in Chiloquin, Ore., says that indigenous people from throughout the region will be increasingly asserting themselves in the struggle from this point forward. “If this

have “the large environmental groups or the resources like you [find] in California to fight destructive projects like this. “Truth be known,” McCaffree continues, “Jordan Cove came to Coos Bay because every LNG import proposal in California—and there were quite a few at the time— had been derailed for some reason or another. The industry saw Coos Bay as easy pickings.” Most of Oregon’s elected leaders— including most Democratic Party officials, many of whom support measures to reduce greenhouse gas pollution in other contexts— support the pipeline on economic grounds. Oregon’s State Land Board would need to issue Veresen a permit for the pipeline to be built through coastal Oregon. Governor Kate Brown is a member of the State Land Board and appoints its other two members, but she has largely stood aside as Veresen has attempted to muscle its way through state and local regulatory processes. “It’s incredibly frustrating for communities that are most impacted by this pipeline to see our state government saying they are ready to take action on climate change, but not taking a stand on what could be the largest source of climate pollution in the state,” says Hannah Sohl, executive director of the Medford-based group Rogue Climate, a leading voice of opposition to the JCEP. Even Democratic U.S. Sen. Jeff Merkley, who co-sponsored a bill earlier this year to eliminate 100 percent of U.S. fossil fuel consumption by the year 2050, has tepidly supported the Jordan Cove proposal.
If built, the project would pull 438 billion cubic feet of natural gas per year out of the ground—almost twice the amount Oregon as a whole consumed in 2015. Construction unions wield enormous power within Oregon’s Democratic Party. They highlight that the project would bring about 150 permanent jobs to the economically stagnant Coos Bay region, also paving the way for a significant expansion of the city’s
port through dredging. It would also create an estimated 930 jobs during its four-year construction phase. “There are thousands of qualified pipefitters, electricians, laborers, sheet metal workers, ironworkers and boilermakers across Oregon that will benefit from this work, receiving good wages with benefits for three years of construction,” says John Mohlis, Oregon State Building and Construction Trades Council executive secretary. The port of Coos Bay was among the world’s largest shipping areas
for lumber in the 1970s and ’80s, and the promise of new jobs at the declining port has elicited enthusiastic support from area business leaders. Jody McCaffree, a landowner outside of Coos Bay, sees the targeting of this economically depressed area as deliberate, saying that the Jordan Cove consortium chose Coos Bay because the residents in the pipeline route have fewer resources to oppose the project than places like the San Francisco Bay Area, which has larger ports than Coos Bay but doesn’t
In the absence of federal legislation to scale back the United States’ outsized role in causing and perpetuating the global climate crisis, the West Coast has emerged as one of the world’s most significant climate-change battlegrounds. In recent years, California, Oregon, Washington and British Columbia have faced a spate of new fossil-fuel infrastructure projects, but
Indigenous Opposition
As with the DAPL and Keystone XL pipeline struggles, indigenous people are likely to play a key role in the project’s outcome. The Karuk, Yurok and Klamath tribes have all passed resolutions opposing it. They note that it threatens cultural resources, traditional tribal territories and burial grounds. Numerous individual members of the Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians, the Cow Creek Band of Umpqua Tribe of Indians and the Confederated Tribes of Coos, Lower Umpqua and Siuslaw Indians have also come forward to oppose it. Within California, very few groups have defended water resources as strongly as Klamath Basin tribes, for whom the river’s storied fisheries form a basis of their survival as distinct cultures. Many have fought for years to remove four hydroelectric dams on the Klamath River. They had a major presence at the DAPL struggle on the North Dakota plains, and around 75 traveled by bus to speak out at a series of open houses in Oregon in early March. They have expressed their concerns about the potential for damage to the river during both the pipeline construction process, as well as from potential leaks and spills. Sammy Gensaw, a 22-year-old Yurok fisherman from Klamath Glen, Calif., notes that indigenous people have developed long-term resilience that is now lending itself to the struggle against the global climate crisis. Indigenous people know what it’s like to be pushed to the edge of survival, he says, and because of climate change, existential threats are now something that all of humanity shares in common. “The first fight of my ancestors was to have blood flow through their veins and air in their lungs, because at one point, the U.S. government deemed it a crime to be native and punishment was death,” Gensaw says. “So my people know what it is to stand up for our very survival.”Y

grassroots opposition has helped defeat most of them. Eric de Place, the policy director of the Seattle-based Sightline Institute, a climate-change think tank, conceives of the Pacific Northwest as a “thin green line,” since it stands squarely between Asia’s voracious energy markets and huge fossil-fuel deposits in North America’s interior. Since 2010, Oregon, Washington and British Columbia have faced proposals for roughly 25 LNG terminals, along with six coal export terminals, 15 oil-by-rail facilities and several major new oil and gas pipelines. A poor economic outlook dealt the fatal blow to many of these proposals, including all of the coal export proposals. De Place says “the Jordan Cove project is far from a slam dunk” for Veresen. That’s particularly the case, he notes, because it is competing for markets and investors with the swarm of British Columbia LNG export proposals, which are competing against it in a finite global market for LNG products. De Place hastens to note that the Obama administration was also not particularly friendly to the cause of reining in fossilfuel production. “If anything, the Obama administration was hostile to our cause,” de Place says. “Almost all of the victories we have won so far against new fossil-fuel infrastructure have been fought and won at the local level.” Still, the Trump administration’s loud support for the project had made Veresen increasingly optimistic about the project’s chances. On December 9, hours after FERC denied Veresen’s application to build the project, company lobbyist Ray Bucheger wrote a conciliatory email to three Colorado-based oil and gas industry executives with a stake in the project, which were obtained for this story through a records request. “We are currently evaluating our options, but I will say that we need Mr. Trump and his team now more than ever,” Bucheger stated. Veresen has announced that it will resubmit its application to FERC in August, and that it is optimistic about receiving federal approval in 2018 or 2019.

am Tam Ramen is the brainchild of Whole Foods Markets and their longtime sushi-producing partner Genji. Together they rolled out their fast casual ramen shop in January in Mill Valley’s Alto Plaza Shopping Center. Vibrant green walls juxtaposed with large menu boards heavy with graphics, Japanese characters and ingredient descriptions fill the bright space that was previously home to Smashburger. Seating in multiple configurations including benches, booths and two- and fourtop tables dot the high-ceilinged room. Notably, a large refrigerated case situated directly where diners line up to place their orders is filled with intriguing drink selections from canned rosé wines, to sake to various cold teas. With a tagline that reads, “slurp your noodles,” the menu offers up to six options, from the signature Tam Tam ramen prepared with a tonkotsu broth, to lighter versions with chicken, miso and veggie broths. Interestingly, calorie counts are included with dishes that
range in price from $8.99 (the veggie) up to $14.99 (a truffle snow crab bowl of a pork and dashi broth, crab legs, noodles and white truffle oil). Though it’s all about the ramen here (even the clever logo features chopsticks and Mount Tam), small bites are also an option and include bao sliders, grilled edamame, wonton nachos and gyoza. The items that stay as true to their origin work the best here, whereas the veggie ramen, at a mere 590 calories, lacked backbone and flavor. Fortunately there are “extras” that can liven up the offerings. Fort Point beer and Golden State Cider are available on tap and come at a discounted price during Tam Tam’s regular happy hour from 3-7pm. Tam Tam currently does a brisk takeout business, but with summer here (and extended hours, to 9pm), perhaps diners will linger over the bowls of noodles.Y Tam Tam Ramen; 731 E.

Cinema Critique
A film critic presents questions to young film buffs By David Templeton
‘‘P
ulp Fiction!” Whit, the young man seated to my right— one of about 20 in a large semi-circle of teenage film aficionados—is the first to raise his hand in answer to my two-part question, “What is your favorite movie? And why?” My stipulation is that, if at all possible, all answers should be concise, clear and contained in a single sentence. “So, Pulp Fiction,” begins Whit, carefully, “is an outstanding ovation to how people behave in relationships, and it takes a very neat turn on the whole mobster scenario, where instead of having this really serious, down-to-earth tone, you have these really goofy
characters who can get down-toearth, but they also do a lot of funny stuff on screen.” That is a very functional, wellobserved critique of the acclaimed Oscar-nominated 1994 Quentin Tarantino game-changer, which actually is primarily a film about relationships—though a lot of people wouldn’t have led with that observation, choosing instead to talk about profanity employed as urban poetry, unconventional storytelling and how exploding heads can, under the right circumstances, be funny. “I also think it’s one of the greatest films ever made,” he adds. “Though to be honest, most of the time, I’d rather watch something like Blazing Saddles.”
OK. Three sentences. It’s day number four of BEHIND THE SCENES movie camp, one of several weeklong “camps” offered as part of the California Film Institute’s annual Summerfilm immersive youth film appreciation program. Having already had a working session with film directors, documentarians, actors, horror make-up artists, voice-over artists, long-form improvisational performers, art directors and a sound designer, the students get to spend an hour this afternoon with a film critic. That would be me. As is often the case, the most lively portion of the session is when I turn the focus on the students themselves, asking them to explain what makes

Wes Anderson’s ‘The Grand Budapest Hotel’ was mentioned as a favorite film at a recent California Film Institute BEHIND THE SCENES workshop.
a film work for them, and to defend that position, if necessary. “Favorite film and why, one sentence,” I repeat, calling on Sebastian, sitting directly ahead. “Grand Budapest Hotel, by Wes Anderson,” he says. “Probably because, every scene is set up so perfectly, that if you pause the movie, at any point, whatever you’ve stopped on would make a perfect photograph, perfectly framed and designed. You could sell that movie scene by scene, as a series of unrelated photographs, and it would still sell, it’s that well-made.” That’s technically two sentences, but a unified thought, and an impressive description of Wes Anderson’s strong visual sensibilities. “Um, the Chucky movies … Child’s Play and the whole series of horror films that came after that,” says Robert. “I really do like those Chucky movies, mainly because, yes, they’re gruesome, but they also have a lot of comedy, and you wouldn’t think it would work, but it does, which is actually kind of impressive.” “Comedy and horror do work surprisingly well together,” I agree. Earlier in the session, I described what I see as the difference between those movies we’d call “great films” and those we’d name as our “favorite films,” stating that “favorites” are generally choices made from personal responses, and the “best” or “greatest” films are more intellectual or academic judgments. “Which can overlap,” I remark, “but don’t have to, to be valid.” The list of films that the participants create together quickly forms a varied, telling and fairly colorful composite of modern cinematic benchmarks. Titanic. Fanny and Alexander. Mad Max: Fury Road. Fargo. Rushmore. Goodfellas. The Big Lebowski. Her. Inglourious Basterds. After a tangent about the Coen Brothers’ The Hudsucker Proxy, I state my belief that critiquing a film is a personal thing, that if you know what’s important to you in a film, and you hold movies to that standard, you are doing your job as a critic. And no one can tell you that you’re wrong. “One of my personal favorite movies is The Princess Bride,” offers Fiona, “and I think I like it because it’s a classic, sort-of fairy-tale-esque movie, but then it’s different, it’s funny and it’s ironic, and you can’t always predict what’s going to happen. But it’s mainly just a great story. “And that, a really good story,” she continues, “that’s really important to me in a movie.”Y

Award-winning actors Dameion Brown and Elena Wright star in Shakespeare’s ‘Much Ado About Nothing,’ the opening production of Marin Shakespeare Company’s 28th season.
THEATER
Shakespeare Season Marin Shakespeare Company, going strong, opens 28th season By Charles Brousse
W
ithin a few days of the publication of this column, Marin Shakespeare Company (MSC) will officially open its 28th season in Dominican University’s Forest Meadows Amphitheatre with a production of one of the Bard’s favorite comedies, Much Ado About Nothing. In a world in which theater companies devoted to Shakespeare come and go, 28 years in itself is an accomplishment, but there is much more to the story. Driven by the energy, persistence and vision of co-founders Lesley and Bob Currier— bolstered by some opportune financial good luck—MSC’s growth has been truly remarkable.
It all began in July of 1989. With the exception of graduation exercises and occasional other special events, Dominican University’s old amphitheatre had been largely unused since the Marin Shakespeare Festival, headed by John and Ann Brebner, declared bankruptcy in 1974. Fearing that the college would abandon it and aware that the Brebners weren’t interested in resuming their former roles, a group of local Shakespeare lovers had been searching for someone to head their effort to resurrect the failed festival. One lead led to another before they finally settled on Bob Currier, then the young artistic director of the Ukiah Players Theatre.
“Out of the blue I got a call asking if I was interested,” Bob says. “When I said ‘yes,’ I was invited down to Marin for an interview with Ann Brebner at her San Rafael house. At the end of the conversation, she gave me the intense look she was famous for and said, ‘I intuit that you will bring back Marin Shakespeare.’ That was it! I was hired. No mention of how I was supposed to do it.” Lesley left UC Irvine where she was working on an M.F.A. in acting and the pair set about the task of building a company capable of producing high-quality summer shows. That first year they worked without compensation and their commitment might have ended
there if Marcia Lucas, George Lucas’ former wife, hadn’t donated $10,000 to keep them afloat. Today, MSC is a substantial organization with an annual budget of more than $1 million, spread over five separate programs: *Production: Like the Mountain Play, it began with one play a summer, performed by a mix of mostly community performers and an occasional professional (Actors’ Equity) guest actor. Gradually, as resources permitted, a second play was added, and then a third, which is today’s format. A contract with Actors’ Equity has allowed more professionals to participate, and there have been significant improvements to Forest Meadows’ infrastructure. *Internships: Every year, a group of young apprentices is recruited to be the proverbial “spear carriers” (aka members of the ensemble) who assist the company in many ways while getting opportunities for valuable performance experience. *Schools: As strong believers that both students and their theater will benefit from an early exposure to Shakespeare, the Curriers have promoted an extensive network of visits to local Marin schools, as well as well as offering special subsidized performances. *Prisons: Under the general management of Lesley Currier, this is an area in which MSC has been a pioneer. Starting with San Quentin a few years back, the program sends a director and a trained drama therapist to work with interested inmates on the production of a Shakespeare play. The program has been so successful that California prison authorities have requested that it be expanded to a half dozen other locations. * 514 Fourth Street: From every angle, these accomplishments comprise a formidable record, but possibly the biggest challenge lies just ahead. After receiving $1 million from an anonymous donor in 2013 for improvements to Forest Meadows, that same donor came through with another $2 million in 2015 that allowed the company to purchase the old Heller’s Baby World building at the east end of San Rafael’s Fourth Street. Completion of a yearround combination community performance and training center (plus offices) will require a capital campaign and a myriad of planning approvals. The timetable is three-tofive years to full operation. Can MSC pull it all off ? I’ll be following the progress. One thing is certain, however: I wouldn’t bet against the Curriers.Y

New Directions Ila Cantor goes beyond jazz By Lily O’Brien
‘‘I
have this commitment right now to just follow my heart when it comes to music,” says jazz guitarist Ila Cantor by telephone from her home in Oakland. A serious jazz guitar student in New York at age 15, she began a successful career that included performing, recording and teaching in New York and Barcelona. But at 25, everything changed. “I had a little bit of an existential crisis,” she says with a laugh. “It was a feeling that I couldn’t find meaning in what I was doing.” Cantor says that she suddenly realized that the career she had been striving for was one that her parents, teachers and mentors had chosen for her. “It was heartbreaking.” So she decided to take a break. “I quit playing and moved to Hawaii and completely changed my life,” Cantor says. “It was a dramatic time.” But while in Hawaii, she began playing again, on the beach, just for fun. And then she discovered songwriting. “It was a beautiful way for me to express and explore what I really love about music,” Cantor says. After a couple of years, she decided to

move to California to pursue music again, but more freely. Recently, Cantor, 32, fell in love with the charengo, a 10-string Peruvian instrument, and has been composing melodies and chord changes for it inspired by her jazz guitar music.“It just sounds so cool and different because this instrument has never been played in this way,” she says.“I’m going for a sort of hypnotic quality that’s not about lines and licks, but more about the shifting of harmonies and grooves—something a little more subtle.” Cantor (on charengo and guitar) performs at Copperfield’s Books in San Rafael on Friday, June 30, as part of the nonprofit Jazz in the Neighborhood concert series, along with John Witala (upright bass), Hamir Atwal (drums) and her student Spencer Handley (guitar), who will open the show with a short set. “I am exploring ways to express music that are inspiring and deepen my love for music,” Cantor says. “That’s where I’m at right now. It’s just coming out.”Y Ila Cantor, Friday, June 30, Copperfield’s Books, 850 Fourth Street, San Rafael; 6pm; free; 415/524-2800; jazzintheneighborhood.org.
Canadian Charm ‘Maudie’ paints a colorful portrait of artist Maud Lewis By Richard von Busack
T
he endearingly gawky Sally Hawkins (HappyGo-Lucky) stars in Maudie, and it’s one of the best portraits done of a character constrained by his or her body, up there with My Left Foot. The Nova Scotia outsider artist Maud Lewis (Hawkins) was bent over with juvenile arthritis, with hands so clawed that she eventually had to hold the brushes with her wrists. Maud made a small name for herself, painting her world—the pets she had or wished she had, and flowers for every season. She lived in a 10-by-12 shack with her fish-peddling husband Everett (Ethan Hawke), selling her paintings by the roadside as souvenirs. Maudie shows how her life changed when she left her domineering aunt and took a job with Everett, a scowling, almost vicious grown-up orphan with a bad temper. Hawke has to stretch— he’s a tenor trying to sing bass. It’s clear why Hawke was cast; being a
warm handsome actor, you forgive Everett for his meanness. At the end of the film we see the real-life characters in a clip from a short black-and-white documentary made about Maud, and it doesn’t really reflect what we’ve just seen. Unlike the man who grudges the pictures painted on his wall, and who was reluctant to marry, the real Everett bought his wife her first paint set, and wed her after a sixweek courtship. If Maudie Lewis was anything like Sally Hawkins, why wouldn’t he? Hawkins’ unguarded grin, the husky voice from too many cigs, the candidness and sidelong ways are disarming. There is a secret world inside her. Someday I’ll go to the museum in Halifax, to see the 10-by-12 house the Lewises lived in, now preserved with all of the paintings Maud did over the years covering the walls. But my point is that the movie Maudie would be captivating even if the title character had never painted a lick.Y

By Amy Alkon
Q:
My boyfriend of three years cheated on me, and when I found out, he dumped me. I’m getting over it, but boy, it’s a slow process. Some days, I’m fine, and others, I feel super sad or really angry. Is there some way I can speed up my recovery so I can get on with my life?—Wasted Enough Time
A:
You wish him all the best, which is to say you hope that a giant scorpion crawls out of the sand and bites his penis. It’s understandable that you’re feeling overdue for a little emotional fumigation. But consider that there’s an upside to the downer emotions and not just for the dry cleaner who’s about to buy Crete after getting the mascara stains out of all of your clothes. Though we tend to see our gloomier emotions—like sadness and anger—as “bad,” and the “whoopee!” emotions, like joy and happiness, as “good,” evolutionary psychologist and psychiatrist Randolph Nesse explains that emotions are neither good nor bad; they’re “adaptive.” They’re basically office managers for our behavior, directing us to hop on opportunities and avoid threats through how good or crappy particular things make us feel. As Nesse puts it, “People repeat actions that made them feel happy in the past, and they avoid actions that made them sad.” Nesse believes that sadness may, among other things, be evolution’s version of a timeout. Note that a term psych researchers use to describe sadness is “low mood” (though it would more helpfully be called “low-energy mood”). Sadness, like depression, slows you down; you repair to your couch to boohoo, lick your wounds and seek comfort from the two men so many women turn to in times of despair, Ben & Jerry. And yes, there’s value in this sort of ice cream-fueled Kleenexapalooza. Being sad is telling you, “Don’t do that again!”—while giving you the time and emotional space to figure out what exactly you’re supposed to not do. Because your emotions have a job to do, you can’t just tell sadness and anger, “You’re no longer wanted here. Kindly show yourselves out.” They’ll go when you show them that they’re no longer needed, which you do by reprocessing your painful experience into something useful. Unfortunately, there are some challenges to this, because when you’re upset, your emotions and all the things you’re emotional about become a big tornado of stuff whirling around in your mind “Wizard of Oz”-style. But what do we humans understand really well? Stories. And it turns out, studies on coping with breakups by communications researcher Jody Koenig Kellas find that creating a story about the relationship and the breakup seems to help people adjust better and faster. Essential elements in this seem to be relating your complete story in a “sequential” way (in order), having a narrative that hangs together and makes sense and illustrating it with examples of things that happened and giving possible reasons for them. The need to mentally organize what happened into a detailed and coherent story pushes you to reflect on and make sense of your experience in ways that less directed thinking does not. What seems especially important for moving on is making meaning out of the situation—turning the ordeal into a learning experience that gives you hope for living more wisely (and less painfully) in the future. Kellas’ results dovetail with decades of research by psychologist James Pennebaker, who finds that “expressive writing” (similar to what Kellas recommends) speeds people’s recovery from emotional trauma. But say you hate to write. Research by social psychologist Sonja Lyubomirsky finds that recording your story (say, with the voice memo app on your phone) also works. You could also just tell the story to a friend or a homeless guy at a bus stop. (Give him a few bucks for lending an ear.) Finally, consider the difference between healthy storytelling, used to find meaning in what you went through so you can move on, and unhealthy “rumination”—obsessively chewing and rechewing bits from your relationship without insight, solutions or relief. Psychologist Susan Nolen-Hoeksema finds that this builds “a case for hopelessness,” prolonging distress and recovery. A powerful way to unbuild a case for hopelessness is by recognizing that you have some control over what happens to you. You get to this sense through accountability—admitting that you have some responsibility for your present situation (perhaps by ignoring red flags and letting wishful thinking run the show). Sure, blaming someone else probably feels more gratifying in the moment. Unfortunately, this tends to lead to insights with limited utility—such as the revelation that Cheerios, oddly enough, do not actually cheer you up (not even when paired with a lactose-free milk substitute such as Jim Beam).Y Worship the goddess—or sacrifice her at the altar at adviceamy@aol.com.
Astrology
For the week of June 28
ARIES (March 21-April 19): This is a perfect
moment to create a new tradition, Aries. You intuitively know how to turn one of your recent breakthroughs into a good habit that will provide continuity and stability for a long time to come. You can make a permanent upgrade in your life by capitalizing on an accidental discovery you made during a spontaneous episode. It’s time, in other words, to convert the temporary assistance you received into a long-term asset; to use a stroke of luck to foster a lasting pleasure.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Physicist Freeman Dyson told WIRED magazine how crucial it is to learn from failures. As an example, he described the invention of the bicycle. “There were thousands of weird models built and tried before they found the one that really worked,” he said. “You could never design a bicycle theoretically. Even now, it’s difficult to understand why a bicycle works. But just by trial and error, we found out how to do it, and the error was essential.” I hope you will keep that in mind, Taurus. It’s the SuccessThrough-Failure Phase of your astrological cycle. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): According to my analysis of the astrological omens, you should lease a chauffeured stretch limousine with nine TVs and a hot tub inside. You’d also be smart to accessorize your smooth ride with a $5,000 bottle of Château Le Pin Pomerol Red Bordeaux wine and servings of the Golden Opulence Sundae, which features a topping of 24-karat edible gold and sprinkles of Amedei Porcelana, the most expensive chocolate in the world. If none of that is possible, do the next best thing, which is to mastermind a long-term plan to bring more money into your life. From an astrological perspective, wealth-building activities will be favored in the coming weeks. CANCER (June 21-July 22): When Leos rise above their habit selves and seize the authority to be rigorously authentic, I refer to them as Sun Queens or Sun Kings. When you Cancerians do the same—triumph over your conditioning and become masters of your own destiny—I call you Moon Queens or Moon Kings. In the coming weeks, I suspect that many of you will make big strides towards earning this title. Why? Because you’re on the verge of claiming more of the “soft power,” the potent sensitivity, that enables you to feel at home no matter what you’re doing or where you are on this planet. LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): You may not realize it,
but you now have a remarkable power to perform magic tricks. I’m not talking about Houdini-style hocus-pocus. I’m referring to practical wizardry that will enable you to make relatively efficient transformations in your daily life. Here are some of the possibilities: Wiggling out of a tight spot without offending anyone; conjuring up a new opportunity for yourself out of thin air; doing well on a test even though you don’t feel prepared for it; converting a seemingly tough twist of fate into a fertile date with destiny. How else would you like to use your magic?
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Feminist pioneer and author Gloria Steinem said, “Writing is the only thing that, when I do it, I don’t feel I should be doing something else.” Is there such an activity for you, Virgo? If not, now is a favorable time to identify what it is. And if there is indeed such a passionate pursuit, you should do it as much as possible in the coming weeks. You’re primed for a breakthrough in your relationship with this lifegiving joy. To evolve to the next phase of its power to inspire you, it needs as much of your love and intelligence as you can spare. LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): One of the 21st century’s most entertaining archaeological events was the discovery of King Richard III’s bones. The English monarch died in 1485, but his burial site had long been a mystery. It wasn’t an archaeologist who tracked down his remains, but a screenwriter named Philippa Langley. She did extensive historical research, narrowing down the possibilities to a car park in Leicester. As she
By Rob Brezsny
wandered around there, she got a psychic impression at one point that she was walking directly over Richard’s grave. Her feeling later turned out to be right. I suspect that your near future will have resemblances to her adventure. You’ll have success in a mode that’s not your official area of expertise. Sharp analytical thinking will lead you to the brink, and a less rational twist of intelligence will take you the rest of the way.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): The tides of
destiny are no longer just whispering their message for you. They are shouting. And what they are shouting is that your brave quest must begin soon. There can be no further excuses for postponement. What’s that you say? You don’t have the luxury of embarking on a brave quest? You’re too bogged down in the thousand and one details of managing the day-to-day hubbub? Well, in case you need reminding, the tides of destiny are not in the habit of making things convenient. And if you don’t cooperate willingly, they will ultimately compel you to do so. But now here’s the really good news, Scorpio: The tides of destiny will make available at least one burst of assistance that you can’t imagine right now.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): In my dream, I used the non-itchy wool of the queen’s special Merino sheep to weave an enchanted blanket for you. I wanted this blanket to be a good luck charm that you could use in your crusade to achieve deeper levels of romantic intimacy. In its tapestry I spun scenes depicting the most love-filled events from your past. It was beautiful and perfect. But after I finished it, I had second thoughts about giving it to you. Wasn’t it a mistake to make it so flawless? Shouldn’t it also embody the messier aspects of togetherness? To turn it into a better symbol and therefore a more dynamic talisman, I spilled wine on one corner of it and unraveled some threads in another corner. Now here’s my interpretation of my dream: You’re ready to regard messiness as an essential ingredient in your quest for deeper intimacy. CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Your
word of power is “supplication”—the act of asking earnestly and humbly for what you want. When practiced correctly, “supplication” is indeed a sign of potency, not of weakness. It means that you are totally united with your desire, feel no guilt or shyness about it and intend to express it with liberated abandon. Supplication makes you supple, poised to be flexible as you do what’s necessary to get the blessing you yearn for. Being a supplicant also makes you smarter, because it helps you realize that you can’t get what you want on the strength of your willful ego alone. You need grace, luck and help from sources beyond your control.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): In the coming weeks, your relationships with painkillers will be extra sweet and intense. Please note that I’m not talking about ibuprofen, acetaminophen or aspirin. My reference to painkillers is metaphorical. What I’m predicting is that you will have a knack for finding experiences that reduce your suffering. You’ll have a sixth sense about where to go to get the most meaningful kinds of healing and relief. Your intuition will guide you to initiate acts of atonement and forgiveness, which will in turn ameliorate your wounds. PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Don’t wait around passively as you fantasize about becoming the “Chosen One” of some person, group or institution. Be your own Chosen One. And don’t wander around aimlessly, biding your time in the hope of eventually being awarded some prize or boon by a prestigious source. Give yourself a prize or boon. Here’s one further piece of advice, Pisces: Don’t postpone your practical and proactive intentions until the mythical “perfect moment” arrives. Create your own perfect moment.Y Homework: Name your greatest unnecessary taboo and how you would violate it if doing so didn’t hurt anyone. Testify at FreeWillAstrology.com.
