Hundreds stand against drilling, fracking on public lands

PHOTO BY JAYSON MELLOM

he Central Coast environmental community gave federal officials a tongue lashing on May 22 in the Embassy Suites hotel in San Luis Obispo, berating the U.S. Department of Interior (DOI) for its plan to grow oil and gas production on public lands across Central California. Following a rally in the parking lot of the hotel led by SLO Mayor Heidi Harmon and leaders of environmental groups, including the Sierra Club and Center for Biological Diversity, more than 200 people poured into a conference room. “Public lands are ours to enjoy, not yours to destroy,” read signs that were handed out to meeting attendees. The DOI’s Bureau of Land Management (BLM) hosted the meeting as it’s taking public comment on an environmental document that addresses increases in hydraulic fracking that are laid out in the BLM Bakersfield Office’s resource management plan. Before handing the mic to members of the public, a BLM representative gave a brief presentation on the plan, which opens nearly 1 million acres of land in eight counties to new oil and gas leases, including 125,000 acres of SLO County. Among the sites listed are areas in the Irish Hills Natural Reserve, Montaña de Oro State Park, and parcels near the Carrizo Plain, Lake Nacimiento, and Camp Roberts. The BLM has not issued a new oil or gas lease in California in more than five years. But up to 400 new wells could be drilled in the next decade, with as many as 40 wells fracked, according to the BLM’s environmental document on fracking. That report largely concludes that the environmental impacts would be “negligible.” Nearly all those who spoke at the May 22 meeting disagreed.

Cambria residents will see water rate increases in July The Cambria Community Services District approved water, sustainable water facility, and sewer rate increases at its most recent meeting; the new rates go into effect on July 1. The board—with the exception of district board trustee Harry Farmer, who abstained— approved raising water rates by 10 percent, water facility fees by 14 percent, and sewer rates by 15 percent. During public comment, residents expressed their frustration with the district for the rate hikes and for having to pay for a water facility that’s been shut off since 2017. District board President David Pierson said the rate study and finance committees have stated that there is a need to boost the revenue coming from those rates. “This rate increase that we’re going to vote on here shortly is necessary for us to continue on with what we’re trying to do—fixing the wastewater, and preserve the emergency water

supply until it becomes the sustainable water facility,” Pierson said. The extra funds will go toward the annual costs of operating and maintaining the district’s water and sewer systems and support capital improvements primarily needed to repair, replace, and/or upgrade aging infrastructure. The residential monthly water rate will go from $15.86 to $17.45 on July 1, 2019, and $18.32 on July 2020. The sustainable water facility rates will go from $7.93 to $9.04 on July 1, and then $10.13 next July. The sewer rate will increase from $35.74 to $41.10 this July and $46.03 in July 2020. According to a staff report, the water rate increases are designed to phase in capital improvement funding to an annual level of $700,000 over three years; the sewer rate increases will be used to phase in capital improvement funding to an annual level of $800,000 over three years; and the water facility rates will help restore balanced budgets, assuming the facility is in operation for two months of each year on average.

Paavo Ogren, interim Community Services District general manager, said that aside from assuring that operation and maintenance costs are covered, the district still needs to pay off the debt of the sustainable water facility, which is another reason the increases are necessary. “That is the component of the [legal contract], which I would say tightened the noose really tight because if the unfortunate situation ever developed where you actually had to use your ... property taxes, then the impacts on fire and facilities and other general fund operations that are funded by property taxes, they would be significantly impacted,” Ogren said. —Karen Garcia

Arroyo Grande Oil Field poised for future drilling

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency decided that 575 acres of aquifer underlying Price Canyon should be exempt from the Safe Drinking Water Act, ending the limbo that Sentinel Peak Resources has been in since it purchased Freeport McMoRan’s local oil drilling operation in 2016. Freeport McMoRan applied for an aquifer exemption in the Arroyo Grande Oil Field in 2015, after the California Department of Conservation discovered that thousands of permitted injection/ re-injection wells in the state, including some in Price Canyon, were actually being drilled into aquifers that were covered under the Safe Drinking Water Act. In an April 30, 2019, letter to the State Oil and Gas Supervisor, the EPA stated that the portions of the oil field covered by the application don’t currently serve as a source of drinking water and won’t in the future, “because they have been demostrated to contain commercially producible quantities of hydrocarbon.” Charles Varni—who works with the SLO Surfrider Foundation and spearheaded the effort to pass Measure G, which would have banned future oil and gas drilling in the county—said that SLO Surfrider is disappointed in the EPA’s decision. “The Price Canyon oil field has some of the dirtiest oil on Earth and we cannot [allow it] to expand production of it and pour its toxic gases into the atmosphere,”

Varni said in an email. Sentinel Peak Resources, on the other hand, is pleased with the decision. Director of Regulatory Affairs Christine Halley indicated in an email that the oil company is eyeing the remaining 31 oil wells left to drill on a 95-well project already approved by the county. “Following months of proactive dialogue with the state agencies, federal agencies, and the public, this determination gives reassurance that oil and gas production continues without impact to the region’s drinking water,” Halley wrote to New Times. “With this determination in hand, the Arroyo Grande Oil Field will continue to support 80 to 100 full-time, well-paying jobs for the San Luis Obispo community. ... As part of doing so, we will keep all options open, including completion of the latest approved development plan.” —Camillia Lanham

Templeton Unified discusses finding new superintendent

Templeton Unified School District (TUSD) is working on a plan to fill the superintendent position after its current superintendent, Joe Koski, notified the district of his resignation. On May 24, Koski emailed a letter to the district and community notifying them of his decision to not pursue a contract renewal beyond July 30. Jan Nimick, school board president, said Koski will finish his superintendent duties at the end of the school year, and Aaron Asplund, the district’s chief business official, will step into an interim superintendent role. Nimick said that while a plan for hiring a permanent superintendent isn’t set in stone, the board anticipates going through a competitive process to find the right fit for Templeton Unified. “But really what we’re going to do as far as picking the final superintendent is engage with all our stakeholders. We want to have forums with the staff,

community, and the students to hear from them what attributes and characteristics are most important to them in a superintendent,” he said. The forums are expected to start sometime late summer. The letter Koski released to the public stated that he had been serving as the superintendent since 2011 and accepted the position knowing that he would be serving as the superintendent of the district and would assume the roles of human resources director, curriculum development director, and alternative education director, as well as the principal for three schools. The letter stated that the California Department of Education dramatically changed curriculum content standards, the accountability system, and assessments in a single year. “Despite the valiant efforts of my staff and me, TUSD has been fighting an uphill battle to maintain excellence. There is much to be proud of since the adoption of the California Content Standards, Local Control Accountability Plan, and the Smarter Balanced Assessment; however, I have come to realize that the scope and number of my duties are no longer tenable,” the letter read. Koski said he believes it’s time for the district to make revise the composition and structure of the leadership team in

A 6-year-old county policy requiring farmers with new crops over the Paso Robles Groundwater Basin to offset their water use is poised for another extension. San Luis Obispo County officials are concerned about a looming “gap” in regulation over the 780-square-mile basin, which has struggled in recent years with development and drought. First adopted in 2013 amid drying wells over the basin, the county offset ordinance put a theoretical moratorium on agricultural pumping. But the policy is set to expire later this year when North County leaders adopt a basin-wide sustainability plan—even though that plan could take another several years to fully take effect. County supervisors will consider extending the ordinance at a board meeting on June 18. The move has the support of both basin supervisors—1st District Supervisor John Peschong and 5th District Supervisor Debbie Arnold. “I’m supportive of extending it until the [basin sustainability] plan is approved by the California Department of Water Resources,” Peschong told New Times. The concern is that the absence of an offset policy could invite a influx of unregulated agricultural development over the basin. “It’s the explosion of plantings [that are of concern],” Peschong said. “The big corporate guys can afford that.” Peschong said he’ll be requesting some “small” revisions to the ordinance to allow more small-acreage farmers to plant without an offset. Currently, the ordinance does provide an exemption for “de minimus” crop production—which is defined as plantings that demand less than 5 acre-feet of water per year. “It would just allow the small family farmers to be able to raise the crop,” Peschong said of his hopeful changes. “They can’t do anything with their land; it’s hurting them economically.” Δ —Peter Johnson

EMPLOYMENT

FULL-TIME WRITER The Sun in Northern Santa Barbara County is looking for its next staff writer, but we’re not looking for just any article-pushing, source-wrangling, story-chasing someone.

Jeuveau

Are you sick of editing or regurgitating press releases day after day? Or maybe it’s those damn list things— you know the ones: “Top 10 hottest places to eat your lunch on a rainy day.” Or maybe it’s just not being able to put the time and reporting into a story that deserves it: the weeks and repeated phone calls that give a story what it needs to ripen into the hard-charging, data-filled narrative it’s dying to be; the time that turns a “meh” story into one that blows a hole in the status quo. Can you see the big picture of what a story means to a community? Is that what drives you? Do you know what it takes to—yes, we know, it’s cliché—make a difference in the lives of the people you cover? Does that sort of thing matter to you? If so, then you’re exactly who we’re looking for: a staff writer who isn’t afraid to take on the tedious, the tenuous, or the talented. That certain someone who can wrestle a story to the ground and fill it with the things that matter to the communities we cover at the Sun and New Times. Oil, agricultural, water, and environmental advocacy aren’t the only things that drive this place—although those are pretty juicy beats. There’s more, and we want to hire someone who can drive his or herself to unearth those stories and tell them in a meaningful way. Let us know if you’ve got what it takes. We dare you.

Field of dreams Baseball advocates introduce campaign to renovate Sinsheimer Stadium

ith the high school baseball season wrapping up and the San Luis Obispo Blues’ season just getting started, it’s a busy time of year at Sinsheimer Stadium in SLO. Over the years, the nearly half-centuryold city ballpark has hosted the games and seasons of countless youth, college, and semi-pro baseball teams, as well as community events like the SLO Triathlon. But time takes its toll—and the stadium’s age is starting to show, local baseball community members say. “The property’s fallen apart,” said Ed Gravell, pitching coach for the SLO Blues and a youth coach in the area. “Everybody’s kind of turned a blind eye to what’s happening.” At a May 1 SLO Parks and Recreation Commission meeting, Gravell and SLO Youth Baseball President Ryan Miller outlined a variety of issues at the stadium. They include: flood lights that are too dim; outfield grass that doesn’t hold up year round; a dysfunctional scoreboard; and deteriorated infrastructure supporting the press box, concession stand, and restrooms. Gravell and Miller pitched a solution to the city that they said they’d been cooking up for almost a year: an $8 million to $10 million stadium renovation funded by private donors. “We’ve gone to at least 50 individuals with baseball expertise,” Gravell explained. “Really, they believe it’s a doable project.” The proposed overhaul would take place in four phases over three years. First steps are installing new lights at the stadium and artificial turf at both the stadium and its adjacent Stockton Field (at a total estimated cost of $2 million). Next up is the construction of a new press box, concession stand, restrooms, and barbecue area ($2 million to $4 million). The third phase involves renovating the stadium seating ($1 million). And, the final phase would consist of constructing

an auxiliary building to house offices, restrooms, and storage space. Its proponents said the project is necessary to preserve the Sinsheimer Park fields going into the future. In 2012, the city commissioned a building assessment at the stadium that found it’d reached the end of its structural life, and repairs were needed. Gravell added that SLO Youth Baseball’s membership continues to climb, surpassing 500 youth this year—so safe, year-round playing fields are increasingly important. The artificial turf and new lights would enable its use at any time of year and at night. While turf has a high upfront cost, its ongoing maintenance costs are less than natural grass. In order to move the project forward, advocates will have to form a nonprofit foundation—the Friends of Sinsheimer Project. Gravell and Miller said they’ve already received about $2 million in verbal commitments for donations. “We believe we have a solid plan with achievable results,” Gravell said. They will also need to earn the city’s

blessing and partnership, which remains uncertain. The Sinsheimer proposal comes as the city is gathering public input for a new, citywide parks and recreation master plan. Though the renovation is laid out as a private venture, facilitating it would nonetheless demand city staff time and resources, including developing an official donor agreement. “That could take a significant amount of time and energy,” said Shelly Stanwyck, the SLO Parks and Rec director. Local residents will get a chance to weigh in on the proposal, and other parks issues, at three city workshops scheduled for Wednesday, June 5, at the Ludwick Community Center from 4 to 6 p.m. On May 1, parks commissioners generally expressed support for the concept, but wanted to see more “fleshed out” plans and hear more public feedback. “The [Sinsheimer Park] neighborhood would need to be engaged,” Stanwyck noted. According to SLO parks staff, some community members are opposed to the renovation. A group called the “Sand Lot Gang” feels that more focus and funds should go toward “the creation of additional fields aimed at youth baseball and softball, and not the renovation of the stadium,”

Talking parks

The San Luis Obispo Parks and Recreation Department is holding three, one-hour public workshops on Wednesday, June 5, at 4, 5, and 6 p.m. in the Ludwick Community Center. Parks staff is seeking input on residents’ needs, wants, and desires for future parks amenities, as it develops the city’s next parks and rec master plan. Families are encouraged to attend and provide feedback. Contact sscott@slocity.org for more information.

according to a city report. As the city collects public input on playing fields generally as part of its master plan update, a wide variety of needs and requests have surfaced from residents. At a March 6 workshop, members from the soccer, baseball, softball, hockey, pickleball, rugby, and disc golf communities advocated for new and improved fields and facilities across the city. “We do balance a lot of competing hopes and dreams,” Stanwyck said. In that vein, parks commissioners on May 1 suggested that Sinsheimer Stadium renovation proponents find a way to fold in opportunities for different uses, sports, and community groups to make it a more inclusive project. ∆ Assistant Editor Peter Johnson can be reached at pjohnson@newtimesslo.com.

Trafficked

ILLUSTRATION BY ALEX ZUNIGA

SLO County attempts to tackle human trafficking, and the big problem is the lack of safe housing for survivors BY KAREN GARCIA

n May 22, two people allegedly involved in a sex-trafficking case were sentenced to nearly a year in San Luis Obispo County Jail after pleading no contest in April to a felony kidnapping. Nikko Anaya, 20, and Brianna Morales, 24, were among four co-defendants—the other two were Fabio Silveira and Elijah Wolfson—charged with the human trafficking of a 15-year-old girl. Currently the cases against Silveria and Wolfson have been transferred to San Joaquin and Stanislaus counties. Human trafficking is modern-day slavery. It involves the use of force, fraud, or coercion to obtain some type of labor or commercial sext act, according to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. Traffickers look for people who are susceptible for a variety of reasons, including psychological or emotional vulnerability, economic hardship, lack of a social safety net, natural disasters, or political instability. The trauma caused by the traffickers can be so great that many may not identify themselves as victims or ask for help, even in highly public settings. According to reports filed by the San Luis Obispo Police Department, the victim from Manteca told investigators that she met Anaya through Instagram and made plans to go on a trip with him to Santa Cruz. The report states that Anaya paid for the victim’s meals and, in turn, he said that she owed him. He told her that she would have to have sex with a man for $180. Anaya then forced the victim to have sex with several men on their way to SLO County—where she was finally able to seek help. In a separate incident in April, three massage parlors in Atascadero were under investigation for allegedly offering sexual acts for money, according to the Atascadero Police Department. Over the past several months, the department partnered with the San Luis Obispo Police Department and the SLO County District Attorney’s Office’s Human Trafficking Task Force to conduct an undercover human-trafficking sting. On April 10, Atascadero police and the DA’s Office’s Bureau of Investigation served search warrants at the three businesses, according to the police department, and one person is facing charges for prostitution. “Due to the nature of the investigation and the alleged acts of prostitution, it was believed that human trafficking could be involved,” an Atascadero Police Department press release stated. “Considering this, the Atascadero Police Department requested the assistance of an advocate from the San Luis Obispo County Victim Witness Office during the operation to provide services such as counseling and emergency housing to any identified victims of human trafficking.” The Polaris Project is a national organization that works to combat and

prevent modern-day slavery and human trafficking. For the past 10 years, the organization has run the National Human Trafficking Hotline and has worked on about 40,000 cases of trafficking nationwide. According to a report by Polaris, in 2017, the organization worked on 8,759 cases of human trafficking reported to the national hotline and a textline. The number is only a fraction of incidents of human trafficking, as many aren’t reported to the police. Locally, organizations strive to help victims and survivors with services tailored to each individual as best they

can while facing a lack of funding and a shortage of safe housing where victims can recover. State Assemblymember Jordan Cunningham (R-SLO) is working at the state level to amend and create legislation statewide, with a focus on SLO County, to create a funding source that will aid county task forces and their effort to combat human trafficking at the local level.

From the top When Assemblyman Cunningham was first elected into office in November 2018 he said he looked at the data that states

human trafficking is the largest global criminal enterprise. The International Labor Organization, a United Nations agency, estimates that forced labor and human trafficking represent a $150 billion industry worldwide. Cunningham said it’s constantly growing—and growing faster in California than anywhere else because of its close proximity to South America, where a lot of victims come from. Victims can get taken from the state and across the country. “I get asked this a lot on the Central Coast, ‘Is this really happening here?’ The answer is yes. You have no idea how much this is happening here because Highway 101 is becoming a trafficking corridor,” he said. Cunningham has been collaborating with the SLO County Sheriff’s Office and the SLO County District Attorney’s Office to find out how he can support the two agencies with funding and legislation at the state level so they can dedicate a team of people to go after human trafficking locally. The county has a human trafficking task force, similar to a gang task force, but it needs funding in order to dedicate a deputy sheriff, a district attorney investigator, and a prosecutor. Cunningham recently requested a specific budget for a rural county designated grant program to fund vertical prosecution teams for human trafficking—an effort he’s been working on for years. “Right now, it’s exceedingly hard to designate one or two deputy DAs to fulltime trafficking cases because they have so many other things going on, and it’s exceptionally hard on a police department without a grant program to fund vertical prosecution teams,” Cunningham said. “In this model, you would have a designated prosecutor working hand-inglove with a designated team of victim advocates and counselors, build a rapport with them over time, do sting operations, take down trafficking rings, and build a rapport with victims.” Human trafficking is an issue that’s hard to address anywhere because it’s mobile. Cunningham said that in some cases, “Johns”—individuals who pay for or trade something of value for sexual acts—will look online for prostitution. What they may or may not be aware of, he said, is if you dig deeper, what may look like prostitution is a case of a person who’s being exploited locally while their pimp is out of the area.

The ‘dunes of death’?

Right to choose

Yikes!!

Sweet home California or Alabama, here we come

fter reading the opinion piece by Robert Cuddy regarding the Oceano Dunes State Vehicular Recreation Area (“Long overdue,” May 23) over my leisurely breakfast out, I was immediately stricken with a terror so profound and visceral that I had no choice but to scurry home and hide under my bed, whimpering, while I awaited an effort by these malevolent mounds of mayhem to come creeping up my street and smother me in my sleep. Eventually, I realized that few geologic processes move so abruptly as to present an immediate threat to life and limb, and that perhaps Mr. Cuddy was merely engaging in a bit of hyperbole of the sort which is often featured in public discussions these days. Still, as a precaution, my doors remain locked, and a shovel kept nearby. Yes, people do occasionally get killed and injured on the dunes. The dunes are used by many hundreds of thousands of Californians every year, and as with any group that size, there are bound to be some people who do dumb things and get hurt. This phenomenon is not limited to the dunes, but occurs on the highways and at all public venues. Luckily, there are several easy steps one can take to stay safe. For one, you can avoid the area altogether. The offroad area occupies only a small portion of the immense beach stretching from Shell Beach nearly to Point Sal, and it features beautiful vehicle-free areas like the nearby Guadalupe Dunes. Or, you

HODIN

can go out on weekdays when the crowds and “drunken imbecile-index” are low. Or, you can stay along the water, where the rangers strictly control speed and traffic safety. I have traveled to the dunes a number of times over the years in my old Jeep, and amazingly, I remain alive and unscathed. Shootings of the sort cited by Mr. Cuddy occur daily around the state, and have nothing to do with off-road vehicles, and a “concert” can occur at any locale where young people congregate around a sound system. Violent gangs are a sad reality of life in California these days, and a review of the news reveals that SLO County is not immune. He is correct that there is a “class element at play” here between the “valley people” and the locals. But he should remember that they are also Californians, pay the state taxes that support the parks, and they sustain our local economy with their spending. Whether Mr. Cuddy approves or not, our area is “the beach” for those who live in Fresno and Bakersfield, and they have every right to escape their summer heat and visit, just as we have the right to travel through their towns to go skiing or visit the mountains. And, any visitors seeking a vehicle-free visit already have the vast majority of our beaches at their disposal. The risks of riding on the dunes, while small relative to the number of people who use the dunes, are pretty obvious and are accepted by the participants. It really just comes down to a philosophical DUNES OF DEATH continued page 14

hat does bright blue California have in common with deep red Alabama? Not a heck of a lot, you might say, considering the everwidening chasm between “progressives” and “conservatives” threatening to tear this nation in two. If that’s your thinking, you may be surprised by how closely aligned their politics really are. Here’s the dirty truth: • Both states are working to deny a woman the right to make fundamental medical decisions regarding her family. • Both states are injecting government in the middle of the doctor/ patient relationship. • Both states will enforce an end to privacy between a doctor and patient. We figure by now, most are familiar with Alabama’s so-called “heartbeat legislation,” which prohibits abortion after six weeks, even in the case of rape and incest. The only exception is to save the life of the woman. If pregnancy threatens a woman’s health but not enough to kill her, that’s just tough luck. Apparently, Alabama politicians believe that women and their doctors can’t be trusted to make the right decisions on this matter, and they have stepped in to take over. It may surprise you to learn that California politicians also believe that women should not be trusted to make medical decisions regarding their families. Senate Bill 276, which

is currently speeding through the Legislature, would create a system in which a woman’s (and a doctor’s) judgement on the health and well-being of her child is disregarded in favor of that of a public health official who would never meet the child in question. This distant government official would have the power and obligation to overrule a physician’s recommendations regarding childhood vaccination if they do not conform to the narrow parameters determined by the state. That is to say: If a child has experienced an allergic reaction to vaccines in the past, that’s just tough luck. Only if that reaction reached the point of near-death will an exemption be permitted. While a physician will consider a mother’s (and father’s) observations, concerns, and experience when recommending medical treatment, the public health official will not. Under this new law, a mother’s perspective would be relegated to the dustbin of irrelevancy and hysteria. Sound familiar? With these laws, California and Alabama lead the nation in the race to enact the most extreme laws and engage in the most radical government overreach in their respective fields.

issue of whether or not people should be allowed to engage in behavior that puts them at risk. As you may have noticed from myriad “extreme” sports out there, many people are drawn to take risks, especially young men. Why shouldn’t they be allowed to do so? Many cultures feature dangerous undertakings as part of the “coming of age” rites for young men, and while I am many decades past that particular stage in my life, I would certainly have preferred to take my chances on the dunes over, say, taking on a lion with a spear. I, for one, feel neither inclined nor entitled to tell others how to lead their lives, so long as their behavior does not hurt others. I do not need to tell others how they should live, and I hope that they will return the favor. This is the view shared by California State Parks and, I believe, the majority of the community. I would not want to live in a society in which the cholesterol-ridden eggs in my hastily abandoned breakfast placed me at risk of government sanctions imposed “for my own good.” ∆ John Donegan lives in Pismo Beach, where he is retired and amuses himself by ranting about the issues of the day to anyone who will listen.

is just wrong. There is no place for such government intrusion in private health care matters in this “land of the free.” While we are not here to argue for or against abortion or vaccination, you should know that we are 100 percent pro-choice, in the broadest sense of the term: We believe that all people should have the right to choose (or to decline) medical treatment in consultation with their doctors and families. We embrace the notion of “informed consent” and are 100 percent opposed to the legislation of medicine. We stand fully behind the idea of “My Body My Choice.” Whatever you believe about vaccination—good, bad, or indifferent— please understand that the ramifications for SB 276 go well beyond the measles. Most pertinent in this discussion is the bill’s undermining of the right to privacy, which is the foundation of Roe v. Wade, the landmark case establishing a constitutional right to abortion. How can we demand privacy for ob/gyn issues, while mandating government intrusion for pediatrics? And just to be clear, we are not talking about one or two vaccines: Full compliance with California’s strictestin-the-nation law requires more than 30 doses of nine different antigens, necessitating numerous doctor’s visits and more than a dozen injections for kindergarten admission. Missing even one of these doses or antigens is already prohibited without a medical exemption from a licensed MD.

Letters The ‘chasm’

I try to turn away, ignore, go on with my life, but I just can’t help it. So here I am, writing again. Really, Al! In times like these, your biggest fear is “Progressive tyranny?” (“An intellectual chasm,” May 23). I’d say, “You’ve got to be joking!” but sadly, I know this is not the case. Yes, there is a chasm. The chasm is between those who acknowledge the reality of man-caused climate change and its imminent danger to all life on Earth and those who do not. The chasm is between those who understand the concept of separation of church and state and that all citizens should be protected from discrimination and those who do not. The chasm between those who support our liberal democracy and believe that Trump and his supporters are a grave threat to our country and those who do not. Al, if you are so concerned about the rise of tyranny in this country, Google: “The early signs of fascism,” read them, take an honest look at Trump and the current Republican party and your own beliefs. Will you then keep them? If so, you are continuing to pave the way for true tyranny. Kathy Riedmann Los Osos

Opinion

Rhetoric&Reason

BY ANDREW CHRISTIE

Subdivision shuffle Errant supervisors forced to bow to responsible land-use planning

ere’s the front-page headline from the May 5 weekly update issued by the Coalition of Labor Agriculture and Business (COLAB), in all its primal screaming glory: “SICKENING TURN OF EVENTS SIERRA CLUB ACTING AS COUNTY LAND USE REGULATORY BODY KILLS EXISTING LOTS.” Furthermore: “NOW YOU’RE [sic] GREAT GRANDMOTHER’S LOTS ARE ILLEGAL! Next they will repudiate the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo and advocate of [sic] return California to Mexico.” At its May 7 meeting, as a result of the Sierra Club’s lawsuit that was the cause of COLAB’s heartburn, the San Luis Obispo County Board of Supervisors was scheduled to vote to rescind the unconditional permission the board majority had granted to facilitate development of a dozen land parcels in South County based on an antique subdivision map. When COLAB released its weekly update two days before that scheduled vote, it was shocked—shocked!—that “the Sierra Club, county planning staff, and county counsel” asserted that the owners of antique maps “should go through the full subdivision application process under today’s standards.”

Two days later, the repeal vote was suddenly pulled from the board’s consent agenda amid a flurry of confusion. It returned at the board’s May 21 meeting, when the board finally undid what it had done. Sixteen years ago, in the California Supreme Court case Gardner v. County of Sonoma, the court laid down the law that the SLO County Board of Supervisors majority ignored. As to why the Sierra Club had to sue them, here’s the most relevant passage from the court’s ruling: “If we were to adopt plaintiffs’ position and hold that local agencies must issue a certificate of compliance for any parcel depicted on an accurate, antiquated subdivision map, we would, in effect, be permitting the sale, lease, and financing of parcels: (1) without regard to regulations that would otherwise require consistency with applicable general and specific plans and require consideration of potential environmental and public health consequences; (2) without consideration of dedications and impact mitigation fees that would otherwise be authorized by the [Subdivision Map] Act; and (3) without affording notice and an opportunity to be heard to interested persons and landowners likely to suffer a substantial or significant deprivation of their property rights.”

LETTERS from page 14

not infringe on reproductive rights, it protects reproduction and the lives of innocent unborn children. There is no excuse in today’s society for abortion with the availability of birth control and contraceptives. That someone would be too lazy to prevent contraception is the problem. Abortion shouldn’t be a convenience for laziness. No one seems to get mad when drunk drivers get arrested because they can harm or kill someone. It comes down to taking personal accountability. Our education system is also to blame for unwanted pregnancy. They don’t teach abstinence any longer, and they educate our youth into thinking abortion is normal, when in reality it is murder. It’s time for people to take personal responsibility for their actions. And Planned Parenthood should be teaching abstinence and in the event of pregnancy, how to care for a child or put the child up for adoption. Abortion is not the answer. Dave Allen San Luis Obispo

hardly worthy of a weekly column in any newspaper. In his last piece he touched upon John Brown, Woodrow Wilson, Australia, the Equality Act and climate change, finally concluding that “Progressive-Democrat policies are jeopardizing America’s economic future, undermining the very social fabric of the nation ... ,” a non-sequitur that capped off a nearly unreadable column supposedly decrying the divisiveness of our current political climate. While I enjoy reading about alternative viewpoints, I at least expect to encounter an informed, reasonable voice in a publication such as yours. Fonzi’s mind is cluttered with halftruths, alarmist conspiracy theories, and half-digested history lessons no doubt culled from Fox News and extremist websites, and his garbled prose evinces this muddled state of mind. He should be relegated back to the “letters to the editor” column, a place where everyday crackpots are regularly allowed to submit their opinions without taking up so much valuable newspaper space.

Regardless, 16 years later, the SLO County board majority defended its contrary vote to the bitter end (before voting to overturn it). Fifth District Supervisor Debbie Arnold asserted, “It’s not a one-size-fits-all. I get it, there are a lot of antiquated subdivisions in this county out in the boonies where we know now that we have land use planning and we take that seriously … but not all the antiquated subdivisions are the same.” First District Supervisor John Peschong mused that he had hoped the case would go to court so the legal questions surrounding the matter could be settled, but, alas, the applicant didn’t want to do that so he had to rescind his vote of approval. Sue Harvey, chair of the Sierra Club’s Santa Lucia Chapter, corrected them both, saying “There was nothing esoteric or fuzzy about the law regarding antiquated subdivisions. ... It appears to me that you knowingly chose the rule of privilege over the rule of law.” Calling the board’s forced about-face “completely predictable,” 2nd District Supervisor Bruce Gibson invited Chairwoman Arnold to recall the “very blunt advice” that was given by the assistant county counsel that the board majority’s vote was “doomed from a legal perspective from the start. ... There’s a reason that the Subdivision Map Act was put in place, and there’s a reason that the subsequent legal interpretations of the

Map Act have refined how we apply it. So it’s my hope that this board will be more careful in the future as we consider the question of development in rural areas and go through the process.” The ultimate reply to COLAB, and to Supervisor Peschong’s pretense of unsettled legal questions and Supervisor Arnold’s “it’s not one-size-fits-all” (despite multiple court rulings recognizing that land development decisions need to protect communities and the environment and that 100-year-old maps don’t do that), came in 2003 in a brief filed by the American Planning Association in Gardner v. County of Sonoma: “California has adopted an extensive statutory framework requiring municipalities and counties to plan for their future growth and development, to draft land-use regulations consistent with their plan, to implement their plans through a public involvement process that encourages the community to think about the future when they are making development decisions today. Nothing can undermine all of this more effectively than the 18th century ghosts appearing in the form of antiquated subdivision maps, claiming a right to direct Sonoma County’s growth and development in the 21st century.” Two of San Luis Obispo County’s supervisors get that. Three of them don’t. ∆ Andrew Christie is director of the Santa Lucia chapter of the Sierra Club.

Opinion

The Shredder

Really SLO? C hicken Little called me the other day. She said the sky is falling, and it’s all the Bureau of Land Management’s (BLM) fault—especially those fellows from the Bakersfield office. Who do they think they are? Coming to our town to listen to residents berate them for doing what their bosses asked them to do. The tension that clouded the BLM’s May 22 public meeting in San Luis Obispo over opening 1 million acres of federal public lands in California to oil and gas drilling—and possibly even fracking—almost came to blows! The one dude who stood up to question whether oil and gas drilling is actually dangerous to the environment (umm, it absolutely is) was shouted down by extremely agitated environmental activists with bees in their bonnets about losing the $8 million fight over Measure G. The either extremely brave or extremely stupid Paso Robles resident, Peter Byrne, poked the hornets’ nest of selfdescribed Climate Crisis Warriors and was physically confronted for his trouble, according to The Tribune. Geez guys. The amount of adulting happening that night was at the Christopher Olcott-meetsMr. Rick’s-in-a-2016-drunk-and-angrybarroom-brawl-ready kind of level. Your children would be so proud if you had to beg a judge to let you move from the San Luis Obispo County Jail to some Southern

California pay-to-stayat jail just because you were scared of the repercussions for your actions! Really guys? One person questions what a hundred or more of you have said and you lose your shit? Climate Crisis Warriors unite to beat the rest of the world into submission! Ya’ll should be ashamed of yourselves. Byrne may be wrong, but he’s still allowed to speak his piece at a so-called public meeting where his comments don’t even count in the public record anyway. Really BLM? What’s the point of having a meeting if you tell the hundreds of people who show up to speak that the only way their comments will count in the public record is if they’re submitted in writing? If the Climate Crisis Warriors weren’t already pissed off before you got here, they certainly were once you told them that. And this all came after the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency granted the aquifer exemption for the Arroyo Grande Oil Field that warriors have been fighting against for several years running now. In an April 30 letter to State Oil and Gas Supervisor Kenneth Harris Jr., U.S. EPA Region IX Water Division Director Tomás Torres declares that the oil field areas in question have not and will not serve as a source of drinking water because

they contain commercially producible quantities of oil. The hornets were abuzz with righteous indignation and needed to take it out on someone! At least our stinging warriors are fighting against a cause worth fighting against. I’m not so sure the bumble bees hovering around the Cambria Community Services District’s (CSD) every move are bumbling in the right direction. Cambria residents Mary Webb and Christine Heinrichs are so upset that the county is allowing Peoples’ Self-Help Housing to build affordable housing that they appealed approval of the plan to the California Coastal Commission because of the coastal burg’s tenuous water situation. Really ladies? Who appeals an affordable housing project in a county with one of the highest housing costs in the country? “Using a noble goal to place people in harm’s way and further stress limited community resources is not a solution to anything,” Heinrichs said about the issue in April. The queen bees are concerned that the extra housing units will exacerbate the water crisis that has prevented development there for decades. Meanwhile, Cambria has families shacked up together simply so they can afford to live and work in the fancy little hippy paradise that survives on tourism dollars. It seems to me that the affordable units would spread the housing love around a little bit to the folks who

are already overcrowded into units and already using the water that ya’ll are so concerned about. Even 5th District County Supervisor Debbie Arnold, who talks about how much she hates affordable housing on a regular basis, is supportive of the project! And finally—really State Parks? On May 26, the Oceano Dunes State Vehicular Recreation Area had its third death at the park in less than one month. Chief Ranger Kevin Pearce is having a busy season. For a park that averages about two deaths per year, having three at the beginning of the season is kind of a big deal. What will the toll be by summer’s end? The April fatalities compelled Bob Cuddy to write a May 23 commentary (“Long Overdue”) calling out everybody (including New Times) for doing nothing about the deaths. It, of course, prompted some pretty awe-inducing comments on our website. Our internet trolls never disappoint! Jesse O’Reilly wrote, “If I lived in a padded world where I couldn’t live on the edge then why allow us to even buy Corvettes?” What does that even mean? Then we have Ian Tanner: “If you don’t like what happens at the dunes, then don’t go out there.” Really Ian? Tell that to the family members of the three people who have died at the dunes so far this year. ∆ The Shredder has a hard time understanding people sometimes.

‘Love train’ Three soul men team up to pay tribute to classic gospel sounds

f you had a chance to see a Palm Theatre screening of Amazing Grace— the documentary of rediscovered footage of Aretha Franklin’s incredible 1972 performances at the New Bethel Baptist Church in Watts, Los Angeles— you’ve had a recent reminder of the power of gospel music, which laid the groundwork for R&B and rock ’n’ roll. You can be reminded again of gospel’s power when Burning, Bad & Cool release their new six-song EP, On the Gospel Highway, at a concert at Painted Sky Studios this Friday, May 31 (8 p.m.; all ages; $10 presale at brownpapertickets. com/event/4214471, or $15 at the door). The vocal trio features “Burning” James Scoolis (electric guitar) of Burning James and the Funky Flames; “Bad” Billy Baxmeyer (bass) also of the Funky Flames; and Jimmy “Cool” Conroy (acoustic guitar) of The Moonstone Cowboys, the Seamus Conroy Band, and the Jim Conroy Quartet. They’ve enlisted drummer Daryl Vandruff and keyboardist Wayne Walcoff on the recording and concert, where they’ll also be joined by saxophonist Eric Stever. The idea of this side project is to pay tribute to black gospel groups like the Soul Stirrers and the Fairfield Four, which traveled the Southern U.S. in the ’50s playing a circuit called the Gospel Highway and venues made up almost

Sam Cooke, for instance, was in the Soul Stirrers before he took his career into the secular realm with the 1957 release of “You Send Me,” which went on to launch his solo career. When Scoolis, Baxmeyer, and Conroy joined up five years ago, it was over this shared love of old gospel, even though they weren’t “especially church goers or black.”

Numbskull and Good Medicine Presents has three shows lined up this week, and perhaps the biggest is Reggae legends Mykal Rose with Sly and Robbie at Presqu’ile Winery on Saturday, June 1 (6 p.m.; all ages; $30 presale at Boo Boo’s and ticketfly.com or $35 at the door). Redemption Sound System and DJ E-Dub and Chukki will open with an all-vinyl set. Rose is best known as the frontman for Black Uhuru, joining in 1977 after the departure of Don Carlos and Garth Dennis. He and Uhuru went on to release Anthem, which won the first-ever Grammy Award for Reggae in 1985. After that, Rose dropped off the radar for a while, choosing to return to his native Jamaica to start a coffee farm. Then in 1989, he resurfaced and has had a long and storied solo career ever since. Americana and R&B act Dustbowl Revival plays Presqu’ile Winery on Friday, May 31 (6 p.m.; all ages; $20 presale at Boo Boo’s and ticketfly.com or $25 at the door). The eight-piece band also mashes in some New Orleans funk, bluegrass, soul, pre-war blues, and roots music into their irresistible sound.

Also joining the lineup are two talented young musicians who have been impacted by Infinite Music programs, jazz guitar prodigy Von Bush with his quartet, and local guitar star Taylor Hatch.” There’s also a silent auction, wine raffle, barbecue, craft beer, wine, and more in the village courtyard.

Healing SLO nutritionist pens advice book for disordered eating in college

ood is such a basic, integral part of our everyday life that most of us don’t give it a second thought. But according to San Luis Obispo dietician Libby Parker, most of us are doing it wrong. Now Parker—a recipient of the “SLO Top 20 Under 40” in 2017—isn’t here to preach the gospel of paleo or keto or even veganism. Parker is here to promote the simple act of eating, period, with no guilt attached. Most of Parker’s work as a dietician is geared toward the Cal Poly population, as roughly 50 percent of college females will experience eating disorders. Thus Parker’s new (and first) book, Permission To Eat: A practical guide to working yourself out of an eating disorder during college, while celebrating the awesomeness that is you! (released in May), provides actionable steps to work college students out of the anxiety and frustration that their eating disorder imparts. Parker spoke with New Times about disordered Read on eating, actionable steps to recovery, and which Permission To Eat: A practical guide to working yourself out foods she’s given herself permission to eat.

ON THE TABLE While Permission To Eat is aimed at a college audience, author Libby Parker said the steps in the book can help anyone with disordered eating.

of an eating disorder during college, while celebrating the awesomeness that is you! by Libby Parker is available on Amazon for $24.92 in hardback and $16.99 in paperback.

New Times: Why write Permission To Eat specifically for a college audience? Libby Parker: The big-picture reason is that this is my main clientele. While eating disorders occur across the lifespan, young adulthood is a time when eating disorders are more likely to come up. College is a big transition, and eating disorders are a coping mechanism. I also had an eating disorder in college. NT: What does disordered eating look like? LP: If we’re cutting out entire food groups or labeling food as good or bad, that’s disordered eating. A lot of my clients that I see are over exercising. If you’re exercising when you’re sick, injured, or exercising at the expense of social events, or not taking rest days, those would all be red flags. NT: What advice or step typically serves as a light-bulb moment for your clients? LP: The biggest concept that people struggle with is that all foods fit in a healthy diet and there are no good and bad foods. Foods are just neutral. Once that resonates, they realize they’re using food to cope or numb out from the stressors of life. NT: What tools does your book provide readers struggling with disordered eating? LP: Overall there’s lots of different tools and activities that I use with my clients. People who restrict what they eat, people who chew and spit, people who binge eat—there’s lots of actionable steps for everyone. There’s also a section on how to talk with your doctor because saying, “I have an eating disorder,” really changes the lens through which your doctor is going to treat you. NT: What have you given yourself permission to eat? LP: The biggest thing for me was giving myself permission to eat meat again. It tastes good, I’m not eating huge portions of it, and it’s a good source of protein. NT: What actionable first step can someone with an eating disorder take today to begin recovering? LP: Tell someone what’s going on. If you have a good relationship with a professional, start there. But confide in someone, a friend or a relative. Eating disorders are so isolating, and the people who have social support are the ones who have better long-term outcomes. ∆ Arts Writer Ryah Cooley is an omnivore.

First, they wind up on a boat with Gigi and Jared, then at a murder mystery party at George’s house, and finally to the coveted poolside party at Nick’s. Of course, things don’t turn out like a fairy tale, but for our benefit there’s a whole lot of fun in this disaster of a night. Glen The interaction between the kids is definitely the film’s highlight, but the “adults” in the film also up the humor. Amy’s fawning parents, Charmaine (Lisa Kudrow) and Doug (Will Forte), are open to Amy’s sexuality and vaguely think she and Molly are an item. They’re even dorkier than their daughter in their lame attempts to be “cool.” Jessica Williams stars as Miss Fine, the girls’ hot teacher who respects their studiousness even though the girls’ peers see it as a mark of their loser status. Principal Brown (Jason Sudeikis) is clearly exasperated by Amy and Molly’s relentless earnestness and just wants to get them out of school. He later serendipitously turns up as their Lyft driver, much to his shame, which was a nice little side comment on the substandard pay for teachers. The film certainly gets better as it goes along, and its climax at valedictorian Molly’s graduation speech and denouement as the besties must finally go their separate ways, are both pure gold.

It’s nowhere near Williams’ level, but it’s enjoyable enough.

Of course, you do have to witness a girl getting barfed on, so prepare yourself. Anna Sudeikis is pretty great as Principal Brown-turned-Lyft driver. He’s got his minivan all decked out to party hearty. He’s trying to play it cool with the girls, but when Molly suggests Amy check out a little girl-on-girl porn to study some moves, he accidentally taps into their audio and the whole thing plays out as terribly as you would guess. Most of the night the girls don’t even know where Nick’s big bash is, so a lot of their antics are in pursuit of that simple bit of info. They try doing what they do best—hitting up the local college library with their fake student IDs to try and outsmart the problem, but when all else fails, a convoluted plan to scare a pizza delivery dude winds up gifting them with the address. It’s a typical high school big bash complete with drinking games and sexual tension galore. Both leads have been working actresses for a bit, but Booksmart is one that will put them on the map. It’s gross and silly and all the great things that make slapstick-y humor great, but it’s also smart and soulful and filled with a lot of relatable reality. This is worth a watch in theaters, and I wouldn’t be surprised if I watch it again at home. It’s just a good time. ∆ Split Screen is written by Senior Staff Writer Glen Starkey and his wife, Anna.

The Palm Kenneth Branagh (Henry V, Hamlet, Murder on the Orient Express) directs and stars as William Shakespeare stumbling into retirement and the last years of his life. Ben Elton’s screenplay is a witty and fictional take on a world-renowned poet and playwright whose private life was and is still a mystery.

Pick

The story begins at what seems like an end for Shakespeare. In June of 1613, London’s Globe Theater burns down to the ground and with it Shakespeare’s creativity. The loss resulted in Shakespeare’s writer’s block and his hasty decision to move back home to Stratfordupon-Avon to retire, vowing never to write again. But of course the peaceful retirement that Shakespeare is hoping for isn’t what he gets when he returns to a family—a wife and two daughters—he’d basically abandoned for his career. However, the story lines go far beyond the family that awaited his return and longed for his affection. While Shakespeare was away living his best life, his son Hamnet (Sam Ellis) died suddenly at a young age, leaving behind his twin, Judith (Kathryn Wilder), and

sister, Susanna (Lydia Wilson). Lord only knows that Shakespeare is suffering, as daughters are only good for marrying off to be another man’s property. It’s a hard truth that Judith throws in her father’s face because she’s single and nowhere near ready to mingle. In fact, she’s pretty pissed off for a majority of the film because she believes Shakespeare is upset that the wrong twin died. His son should have lived and become a poet just like his father, but why can’t Judith be a poet like her father? There’s also the weird dynamic with his wife, Anne (Judi Dench), who he married when he was 18 and she was 26—scandalous.

She also pushes him to grapple with how selfish he’s been over the years by only thinking of his reputation and never about how his actions affected hers. Then there’s Susanna, who’s married to some Puritan jerk who treats her poorly and doesn’t really show her any affection. So what does Susanna do? Find affection in the arms of another man. The Shakespeare household is anything but boring as the family finds its way to making amends for all the resentment and secrets they’ve kept over the years. Elton’s tale of a man’s last years on earth dives into the dynamics of a family dealing with loss and regret, with a whole lot of wit. It’s much more enjoyable than a straight biopic as Elton and Branagh have respectfully imagined what their Shakespeare would have been like. I’m usually not a huge fan of the director giving himself the leading role, but Branagh walks the fine line of balancing his character’s screen time with everyone else’s. In fact, I’d argue that Judith is a more powerful character than Shakespeare himself and has a bigger story to tell. In most of the scenes, Shakespeare seems a little small compared to his female counterparts. (101 min.) —Karen Garcia

David Yarovesky (The Hive) directs this sci-fi horror thriller by screenwriters Brian and Mark Gunn (Journey 2: The Mysterious Island) about an alien child (Jackson A. Dunn), who crash lands on Earth, is taken in by a human couple—Tori (Elizabeth Banks) and Kyle Breyer (David Denman)— and grows up not to be the savior of mankind but its nemesis. The subversive superhero premise doesn’t quite live up to its potential, but the film has some interesting moments as it mixes slasher/horror tropes with sci-fi, coming of age, and villain origin story. Perhaps the most interesting element is the maternal desperation Tori has to believe her adopted son, who she named Brandon, is inherently good. After all, she raised him from an infant. When he turns 12, things turn darker as he develops an interest in nude females and human organs. Kyle is much quicker than his wife to tune into Brandon’s dark side. Add to Brandon’s mood swings the fact that he’s apparently invulnerable, and you have a set-up for a gory showdown.

JOHN WICK: CHAPTER 3— PARABELLUM What’s it rated? R What’s it worth? Full price Where’s it showing? Downtown Centre, Galaxy, Stadium 10 Directed by Chad Stahelski (John Wick, John Wick: Chapter 2) and picking up mere hours after the second installment, this third in the series follows Wick’s (Keanu Reeves) attempt to escape after a $14 million bounty is placed on his head for breaking an international assassins’ guild rule and killing a member of the guild’s upper order inside the off-limits Continental Hotel. Now every hit man and woman is after him. About the only killer tentatively on his side is Sofia (Halle Berry), who owes him a debt. For sheer mayhem, it’s hard to top the John Wick franchise. Sure, films like Smokin’ Aces (2006) and Shoot ’Em Up (2007) have overthe-top gun violence, but compared to the John Wick films, they come off as cartoonish. And yes, films like Ong-Bak: The Thai Warrior (2003) and The Raid: Redemption (2011) have comparable hand-to-hand combat scenes, but the fight choreography in the John Wick films is crazy good and features premiere Hollywood actors trained in the martial arts rather than martial artists trained as actors. This third installment in the series has everything you’ve come to expect—amazing martial arts, knife, and sword fight scenes; close-quarters gunplay; vehicle (even horse) chases; and people who love their dogs more than anything. Director Chad Stahelski was a martial artist first, martial arts instructor second, Hollywood stuntman third, and came to direction in 2014 with the first John Wick film. He knows how to create believable yet dazzling violence, and he ups the ante with some amazing settings, like a fight in what appears to be a knife museum, a horse stable using horses as weapons, an all-glass room, and a Casablanca compound with Berry’s character Sofia and her two fierce Belgian Malinois dogs. The story is a bit thin. It’s basically an escape film followed by an attack film, but if you like fantasy violence, you’ll be hard-pressed to find a better franchise, and this may be the best film of the three. Perhaps the hardest element for my disbelief to overcome is the crazy-kooky world of the international assassins’ guild with exclusive assassin-friendly Continental Hotels in major cities and elaborate rules set by the High Table regarding blood pacts and markers and who’s allowed to kill whom and where. It’s an attempt to bring some semblance of honor to the proceedings. Even after Wick is made excommunicado, he’s still able to call in his marker with The Director (Angelica Huston), who runs a Belarusian ballet and wrestling school, where Wick was apparently trained. There are also questions of loyalty between New York Continental Hotel manager Winston (Ian McShane) and his concierge Charon (Lance Reddick), who allowed Wick an hour’s head start and are now under scrutiny by The Adjudicator (Asia Kate Dillon), who the High Table sent to mete out justice.

The Adjudicator also visits The Director and the Bowery King (Laurence Fishburne), the latter of whom runs a group of “homeless” street thugs and whom she also deems guilty of helping Wick by not killing him on sight when he had the chance. The High Table’s assassin is Zero (Mark Dacascos), a samurai-esque martial arts master with a legion of ninja-like students. Part of the story’s humor is Zero’s fawning flattery of Wick, who’s regarded as the best assassin. Zero desperately wants Wick’s approval, even though he’s trying to kill him. All these competing factions are set-ups for the inevitable fourth installment, where director Stahelski will have to take another crack at topping the over-the-top action of the first three films.

HAND-TO-HAND Assassin John Wick (Keanu Reeves) takes on all comers, in the relentless action film John Wick: Chapter 3—Parabellum.

Rob Letterman (Shark Tale, Monsters vs. Aliens, Gulliver’s Travels) directs this adventure comedy about Detective Pikachu (voiced by Ryan Reynolds), who comes to the aid of 21-year-old Tim Goodman (Justice Smith), whose detective dad, Harry, goes missing. It turns out Pikachu and Harry were former Pokémon partners, and even more amazing, only Tim can understand what Pikachu is saying. I’m definitely not this film’s target audience. I don’t know anything about Pokémon. I had to ask my wife if they were the same as Pogs. They’re apparently not. Instead, they’re some kind of creatures that partner with humans to wage battles, which is apparently bad, which is why Howard Clifford (Bill Nighy) creates Ryme City so that Pokémon and humans can live in harmony. The film does a pretty good job of educating novices like me on the Pokémon basics before launching into its story about the disappearance of Detective Harry Goodman, who was investigating a secret installation that has a captured Mewtwo, a very powerful Pokémon. Tim and his father’s old partner, an amnesiac Pikachu, go in search of clues and also teamup with Lucy Stevens (Kathryn Newton), a journalism intern looking for her big break, and her Pokémon partner, a Psyduck. Tim’s warned against his investigation by Harry’s old boss, Hideo Yoshida (Ken Watanabe), but that doesn’t stop Tim from tracking down vials of purple gas called “R,” which turn Pokémon violent when inhaled, as well as an underground Pokémon fight ring in Ryme City. Then there’s Clifford’s son, Roger (Chris Geere), who may not share his father’s altruism when it comes to Pokémon. It’s a lot to process, but that didn’t stop me from rolling my eyes, fighting off a nap, and hanging onto the only shred of interest in the film, which was Ryan Reynolds’ wisecracking Pikachu. I’m sure this film was everything its target audience hoped for, but I was bored stiff. A switcheroo or two on who the real bad guy was kept me guessing, but my problem was I didn’t really care. The whole underlying premise of exploiting Pokémon simply didn’t excite me because I didn’t really find much redeeming in the Pokémon. From Lucy’s Psyduck to Lt. Yoshida’s purple bulldog-looking Pokémon, whatever it was called, they seem like jerks. And what’s up with Mewtwo? Whose side is he (or she?) on and why? And why do they keep focusing on its crotch and where are its MOVIES continued page 41

Of course everything will work out, which is boring! I was impressed with the seamless special effects and the Ryme City set, so it was visually arresting, but that’s not enough for me. There were a lot of kids in our screening and they seemed happy with the film, but I couldn’t wait for it to end. If someone decides to make a film about Pogs, I’ll have the good sense to skip it!

The Palm Ralph Fiennes (Coriolanus, The Invisible Woman) directs Oleg Ivenko as Rudolf Nureyev, a dancer from the Soviet Union who defects to the West in order to live out his dream of becoming the greatest dancer of his time. Fiennes and writer David Hare collaboratively work to effectively depict three timelines in Nureyev’s life: his poverty-stricken beginnings, his bone-breaking training, and his fight to be free. What this movie doesn’t focus on as much is the dancing, which isn’t a horrible concept, as the film is about his decision to leave the Soviet

Union and his former life behind. The first timeline starts with the present, after Nureyev has defected to the West from the Soviet Union in 1961. Nureyev’s dance instructor, Alexander Pushkin (Fiennes), is being grilled by a KGB official about why Nureyev defected—of course Pushkin almost too calmly states he has no idea. We cut to a trans-Siberian train a little over a decade before where Nureyev makes his grand entrance into the world as his mother gives birth to him. This scene and the ones that follow of his childhood in central Russia are all heavily desaturated. It’s a stark contrast to the scene that follows, which is 17-year-old Nureyev on a plane with the rest of the Kirov Ballet visiting Paris on a mission to spread Soviet culture superiority. These scenes are filled with warm and light colors as Nureyev makes his way through Paris, taking in the architecture, people, and art while being closely followed by KGB officials. The

officials don’t need the dancers thinking for themselves, and Nureyev doing just that angers them. But back to the beginning, we learn that through a lottery Nureyev’s mother won a ticket to a ballet performance, and once he was in the crowd of attendees he fell in love with dance. After Nureyev became enrolled in a dance school, his instructors instantly saw his talent. Nureyev was always different from the rest in all aspects, so much so that in his dancing career he challenged the norms that were the traditional positions for male ballet dancers. He wanted to be graceful, similar to the female dancers, and to do so he embodied the female movements in his dances. But during his visit in Paris, he befriends Parisian ballet dancers and a socialite, Clara Saint (Adèle Exarchopoulos), who takes him to gay bars and dinners—against the dance company’s and KGB’s warnings to stop. Fiennes does an amazing job of capturing the few dance performances we see by showing off close-ups of the dancer’s body movements and, of course, Nureyev’s intense sultry stare toward the ballet audience. I like the fact that there weren’t too many performances, as the story focused on how Nureyev became a stellar dancer. There’s a lot of Nureyev’s life that Fiennes unpacks, but it’s done in such a way that doesn’t make me yawn. If anything, it made me want to learn more about the dancer, who after defection worked internationally, was praised for his technical prowess, and later died of AIDS complications. The film is in Russian, French, and English, but the feelings between the characters are not lost within the languages. I will admit that at times the pacing seems to slow down in some scenes, but overall the climax of the film really has the audience at the edge of their seat as Nureyev learns he will not be joining the Kirov Ballet in London. KGB officials tell him that he’s to be taken to Russia. On an impulse and with Saint’s help, he asks for political asylum, a move that isn’t Cold War-fueled but rather personal. (127 min.) Δ —Karen

y husband and I have devoured every episode of Netflix’s Chef’s Table and Ugly Delicious, glasses of wine in hand. Sometimes, though, a 45- to 60-minute episode would be too much of a full meal for a weekday evening. So when the streaming service/studio launched Street Food, its newest food documentary series by the creators of Chef’s Table, we figured its 30-minute episodes would hit the spot. We came away mostly satisfied. The setup, premise, and execution initially feel familiar: The filmmakers take the audience to the locale, pinpoint it on a map, show lots of sweeping cinematography, introduce the chefs—in this case the hardworking street vendors of nine different Asian cities—share their stories, and add a dash of perspective from food journalists. But instead of dwelling on the main chef for the entire 30 minutes and giving a deep sense who they are and everything that goes into their dishes, the episodes typically interweave two to three other street vendors with the central chef’s story. This breadth, even in the short time span, adds a taste of each city’s culture and history. The series does manage to do a beautiful job of creating intimacy quickly. The profiled vendors have little visible ego and often shed tears or look inward as they share the tragedies they’ve overcome to keep their family’s food stalls viable. These are stories of triumph and

tradition, one day at a time. In Seoul, South Korea, food stall owner Cho Yonsoon opened her now popular shop to sell hand-cut noodles in order to bring her and her husband out of deep debt. She radiated strength and humility as she talked about the ridicule and stiff competition she endured from the other vendors before becoming successful. In the Singapore episode, Aisha Hashim shared about returning home from America, where she’d gone to culinary school and had begun her own career. Her family’s putu piring stall was failing, so she stepped in, bringing innovation to keep alive the traditional rice flour and palm sugar dessert. While many of the profiled vendors work alongside multiple generations to keep their family’s recipes and country’s traditions alive, a man known as Uncle Goat in Chiayi, Taiwan, shared that he wants a better life for his family. He’s among a very few who can make the goat stew that dates back to the Sui Dynasty in China, but burying the individual pots in a smokey furnace is extremely hazardous. Street Food is like a dense, richly flavored, and tightly wrapped lumpia (watch episode nine about Cebu, Philippines, if you don’t know what that is). Overall, the series presents a well-executed buffet of heavy appetizers, which whet my appetite for even more. (nine episodes, roughly 30 min. each) Δ —Andrea Rooks

CHEERS For this Memorial Day picnic, as we celebrated my mom and stepdad’s 25th anniversary, we brought a DIY tapas spread. The array of Spanish meats and cheeses perfectly complemented Tolo’s rosé.

CAPTIVATING VIEWS We savor the scenic drive to and from the Adelaida area of Paso Robles. Memorial Day afforded stunning views of the rolling hills covered in still-green grass.

Cheers to that! Memorial Day takes us down Memory Lane to Tolo, our favorite North County winery and picnic spot

e could not have asked for better holiday weather. It’s about 1:30 in the afternoon on Memorial Day, May 27, and I’m relaxing with my daughters and stepdad, George, on the lawn at Tolo Cellars in Paso Robles. Thanks to the plump clouds overhead, we’ve got ample shade and dappled sunlight as we sit at the tables we’ve placed just so. I’m trying to get the timing of our anticipated picnic just right. If I pull the assorted cheeses and Spanish meats out of the cooler right now, they’ll get too warm and greasy to be fully appetizing. My family has been coming to Tolo for more than a decade for our picnics, so I’ve learned a thing or two about lowstress meal packing. But I can’t take too much credit today. Costco did the heavy lifting for me this time—in its fridge cases I’d found chorizo, serrano ham, and salchichón packaged together, and also a tray of five lunch-sized cheese wedges. Super. Easy. I leave the picnic fare on ice for just a little longer. My husband, Bret, and my mom are still inside the tasting room picking just the right bottle—well, bottles

plural; we’re going to be here awhile. My daughters can’t wait much longer. They’re tag-teaming their questions about the timing of lunch, and their intensity and frequency are only increasing. I shoo my younger daughter away from the grocery bag of chips and crackers and march into the tasting room. Once inside the adorable red farmhouse I slow down and take in the cozy room with its long tasting bar and stone fireplace. Forgotten is the urgency of whatever it was I was supposed to be setting up outside. I accept a sip of the grenache rosé my mom is currently tasting and then sidle up to Bret and steal a sip of his red blend. Bret bought our first bottle of Tolo—a 2001 Asíni, a zinfandel and sangiovese blend—as a Valentine’s Day gift early in our marriage. And we’ve been trekking up to the tasting room with my parents a few times a year ever since Josh Gibson, the winemaker and proprietor, opened it in 2005. Today my mom and George are in town celebrating their wedding anniversary, and they had no hesitation in picking the place that would make for a special outing. Every time we make the drive up to

Tolo, we fondly retell the stories of our older daughter taking her first steps on the lawn right here and of having our younger daughter’s first birthday party over there on the porch. Today, our girls want us to tell them exactly where those steps were taken and how many times they’ve climbed the trees beyond the porch. We bring a bottle of the 2015 Asíni and the rosé out to our picnic. The grenache rosé is new and technically not released to the public yet, but my mom and stepdad are club members and get all the special treatment. My girls unpack the jars of olives and artichoke hearts while I open the main courses. We fill our plates, and my mom fills our glasses. We sip and savor. Today is about more than perfect weather, delicious wine, and easy picnicking. It’s about being family, celebrating milestones, and building on the outings and rituals that keep us together. We raise our glasses and propose a toast: To Mom and George, happy 25th anniversary! To Tolo, thanks for the memories! Δ Associate Editor Andrea Rooks also thanks Bret and the girls for many years of delicious picnic memories. She can be reached at arooks@newtimesslo.com. COME ON IN Tolo Cellars’ tasting room is on the ground floor of an adorable farmhouse out on Adelaida Road. Guests are welcome to taste a flight, buy a bottle, and lounge on the grounds.

Tolosa in Edna Valley features its sister winery, Perinet, every third Wednesday after work

he other night, my husband, Greg, and I attended an overcast Wednesday Perinet After Hours event at Tolosa Winery in the heart of Edna Valley. This is one of those events that anyone with a yearning for romance needs to know about and get comfortable with, whether your style is monumental movie scenes such as Jack and Rose on the bow of the Titanic or brief moments of light in the darkest of situations such as when Life is Beautiful’s Guido sneaks off to play Offenbach’s Barcarolle on the gramophone for Dora. But romance doesn’t have to be so scripted. For me, the best romantic moments almost always involve music, food, and wine. The night I fell for my husband, on our first date, he poured me a glass of wine and cooked me deep-fried, stuffed coconut chicken. I was already smitten, learning that he knew how to work a deep fryer, but after that he played me a song on his guitar ... and that was it. Tolosa had these kinds of Cupid maneuvers in mind, I’m sure, when they came up with Perinet After Hours. Tolosa transforms their winery every third Wednesday of the month for an evening of European romance with Catalan (Catalunya) wines paired with charcuterie and cheese. The wine varieties

are rare and usually reserved for the wine club. This is the kind of night that adds all the ingredients and then some: soft songs, warm wine, and delicious tapas, reminding you of all the good times, like my coconut-chicken night. The pairing, $35 per person (complimentary for Perinet wine club members), is an easy break in life if you’ll only surrender to it. Guitarist Jon Stephen takes everyone on a little trip to Spain with the poetic sounds of his classic acoustic guitar. My husband and I leaned back and imagined we were on holiday. After Hours took place in the upscale Heritage Room where most wine club events are held, with 6-foot-tall crystalclear windows opening to a stunning spring-colored panorama of slopes covered in pinot noir vines, grassy knolls in every shade of green, and charming orchard trees. The view is a plein air painting waiting to happen. On the walls are large framed fine art photographs by local Duane Hall. The room sits next to a bustling tasting room with a glass wall overlooking stainless steel tanks. “No work talk, OK?” We agreed that would be the best course of action. The room was full: groups of friends, couples, singles reading novels with their noses in the wineglass as they picked at their plates. The winds from Morro Bay could have been the sea breeze off the Mediterranean. Two ladies cozied up to the guitar player. One of the Tolosa hosts said jokingly, “You can’t take him with you.” Tolosa’s sister winery, Perinet, is located 90 minutes southwest of Barcelona in the world-renowned Priorat wine region, specializing in the traditional varieties of garnatxa, carinyena, syrah, and cabernet sauvignon. Toni Sánchez-Ortiz, who had been a winemaker and viticulturist in the Priorat region for 20 years, joined Perinet Winery’s team in 2015 to direct the vineyard work and the winemaking process. At After Hours, the staff will pour you grenache, but for fun, they will pronounce it the Catalan way: “garnatxa,” which sounds like “garn-a-cha.” Perinet and Tolosa are under the collective of three wineries that share the same passionate wine consultant: Jean Hoefliger. The third sister—you may already know of its

It’s wonderful when you can find a place that will bring you the kinds of food on the charcuterie and cheese plates of Spanish wineries in the spirit of Perinet (see this week’s Flavor column). Vivant Fine Cheese, founded by Danika Gordon, a Cal Poly Dairy Science grad, provides the perfect La Manga sheep’s milk manchego for the next picnic of crusty bread and Spanish wine (even if the picnic takes place on your own patio chair). Vivant, which has more than 150 cheeses to entice you, sells its nutty, tangy manchego in 4-ounce, 8-ounce, and 16-ounce wedges. Vivant Fine Cheese is located at 821 Pine St., suite B, in Paso Robles. The García Baquero Quesa Manchego 5 ounce (pre-cut) is $8.95. ∆ New Times contributor Beth Giuffre is all about that Spanish cheese.

COUNTY OF SAN LUIS OBISPO DEPARTMENT OF PLANNING & BUILDING NOTICE OF PUBLIC HEARING WHO: County of San Luis Obispo Planning Commission WHEN: Thursday, June 13, 2019 at 09:00 AM. All items are advertised for 09:00 AM. To verify agenda placement, please call the Department of Planning & Building at (805) 781-5600. WHAT: Hearing to consider a request by Joe and Linda Lippe & AT&T Mobility for a Conditional Use Permit (DRC2017-00017) to allow for the construction and operation of an unmanned wireless communications facility. Two possible sites are proposed. Site “A” was considered at the July 26, 2018, Planning Commission hearing. Site “A” is located approximately 310 feet west of Little Quail Road and approximately 195 feet from the east (side) property line. The project would result in the construction of a 60-foot tall artificial pine tree (monopine) containing: eight (8) panel antennas, two (2) microwave dishes, ancillary antenna support equipment installed within the branches of the mono-pine structure, and ground facilities including a 137-square-foot equipment shelter, an emergency backup power generator, equipment racks, two air conditioning units, power facilities, emergency lighting, and utility meter. All equipment will be installed within a new 21’ x 34’ lease area surrounded by a 6.5-foot tall fence. The facility also includes a 730-foot long utility trench for electrical lines and a new 510-foot long all-weather driveway. The area of disturbance is approximately 11,822 square feet on a roughly 10-acre parcel. The Planning Commission requested that the applicant propose an alternative location elsewhere on the site to be reviewed by staff and considered by the Planning Commission at a subsequent hearing. The alternative location proposed, Site “B”, would be located 155 feet west of Little Quail Road and approximately 370 feet from the east (side) property line. The project designed for Site B would require a taller antenna and different design requirements. The project would result in the construction of an 80-foot tall artificial pine tree (monopine) containing: twelve (12) panel antennas, one (1) microwave dish, ancillary antenna support equipment installed within the branches of the monopine structure, and ground facilities including 49-square-foot equipment shelter, an emergency backup power generator, equipment racks, one air conditioning unit, power facilities, emergency lighting, and utility meter. All equipment will be installed within a new 20’ x 32’ lease area surrounded by an 8-foot tall block wall. The facility also includes a 310-foot long utility trench for electrical lines and a new 550-foot long all-weather driveway. The area of disturbance is approximately 19,700 square feet on a 10-acre parcel. The proposed project is within the Rural Lands land use category and is located at 10550 Little Quail Road, directly southeast of the Park Hill Road/Little Quail Road intersection, approximately 7 miles east of the Santa Margarita township. The site is in the Las Pilitas Sub Area of the North County Planning Area. Also to be considered at the hearing will be adoption of the Environmental Document prepared for the item. The Environmental Coordinator, after completion of the initial study, finds that there is no substantial evidence that the project may have a significant effect on the environment, and the preparation of an Environmental Impact Report is not necessary. Therefore, a Negative Declaration (pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21000 et seq., and CA Code of Regulations Section 15000 et seq.) has been issued May 29, 2018 of issuance for this project. Mitigation measures are proposed to address Aesthetics, Biological Resources, Geology and Soils, Hazards/Hazardous Materials and Noise and are included as conditions of approval.

Pursuant to section 1770 et seq. of the California Labor Code, the Contractor and all Subcontractors shall pay not less than the prevailing rate of per diem wages as determined by the Director of the California Department of Industrial Relations and comply with all applicable Labor Code provisions, which include, but are not limited to the employment of apprentices, the hours of labor, and the debarment of Contractors and Subcontractors. The Director of the California Department of Industrial Relations determines the general prevailing wage rates. Copies are available at the Office of the Clerk of the Board of Supervisors or at the DIR website, http://www.dir.ca.gov/DLSR/PWD. Notice of Requirement for Affirmative Action 1. The bidder's attention is directed to the Equal Opportunity clause in the Agreement and the Standard Federal Equal Employment Opportunity Construction Contract Specifications in section 7-1.11B of the General Conditions set forth herein. 2. The goals and timetables for minority and female participation, expressed in percentage terms for the Contractor's aggregate workforce in each trade on all construction work in the covered area, are as follows: A Goals for minority participation for each trade: 24.6% B. Goals for female participation in each trade: 6.9% These goals are applicable to all the Contractor's construction work (whether or not it is Federal or federally assisted) performed in the covered area. If the contractor performs construction work in a geographical area located outside of the covered area, it shall apply the goals established for such geographical area where the work is actually performed. With regard to this second area, the contractor also is subject to the goals for both its federally involved and non-federally involved construction. The Contractor's compliance with the Executive Order and the regulations in 41 CFR part 60- 4 shall be based on its implementation of the Equal Opportunity clause, specific affirmative action obligations required by the specifications set forth in 41 CFR 60-4.3(a), and its efforts to meet the goals. The hours of minority and female employment and training must be substantially uniform throughout the length of the contract, and in each trade, and the contractor shall make a good faith effort to employ minorities and women evenly on each of its projects. The transfer of minority or female employees or trainees from Contractor to Contractor or from project to project for the sole purpose of meeting the Contractor's goals shall be a violation of the contract, the Executive Order and the regulations in 41 CFR part 60-4. Compliance with the goals will be measured against the total work hours performed. 3. The Contractor shall provide written notification to the Director of the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs within 10 working days of award of any construction subcontract in excess of $10,000 at any tier for construction work under the contract resulting from this solicitation. The notification shall list the name, address and telephone number of the Subcontractor; employer identification number of the Subcontractor; estimated dollar amount of the Subcontract; estimated starting and completion dates of the Subcontract; and the geographical area in which the Subcontract is to be performed. 4. As used in this Notice, and in the contract resulting from this solicitation, the “covered area” is San Luis Obispo County, California. By order of the Board of Supervisors of the County of San Luis Obispo made this 24th day of May, 2019.

Rob Brezsny’s Free Will Astrology Finish this sentence: “The one thing that really keeps me from being myself is _______.” Testify at truthrooster@gmail.com. ARIES (March 21-April 19): In the coming weeks it will make good sense for you to travel down winding paths replete with interesting twists and provocative turns. The zigzags you’ll be inspired to pursue won’t be inconvenient or inefficient, but rather will be instrumental in obtaining the healing you need. To honor and celebrate this oddly lucky phase, I’ll quote parts of “Flying Crooked,” a poem by Robert Graves. “The butterfly will never master the art of flying straight, yet has a just sense of how not to fly: He lurches here and here by guess and God and hope and hopelessness. Even the acrobatic swift has not his flying-crooked gift.”

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Has a part of you become too timid, docile, or prosaic? Is there an aspect of your beautiful soul that is partially muzzled, submissive, or housebroken? If so, now is a favorable time to seek an antidote. But listen closely: The cure isn’t to become chaotic, turbulent, and out of control. It would be counterproductive to resort to berserk mayhem. Here’s a better way: Be primal, lush, and exciting. Be wildly playful and unpredictably humorous and alluringly intriguing. Try experiments that rouse your rowdy sweetness, your unkempt elegance, your brazen joy, and your sensual intelligence.

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): I prefer live theater over movies. The glossy flawlessness of films, accomplished by machines that assemble and polish, is less emotionally rich than the direct impact of live performers’ unmediated voices and bodies and emotions. Their evocative imperfections move me in ways that glossy flawlessness can’t. Even if you’re not like me, Gemini, I invite you to experiment with my approach for a while—not just in the entertainment you choose, but in all areas of your life. As much as possible, get your experience raw and unfiltered.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): I’ve got a message for you from Cancerian poet Tyler Knott Gregson. Please read it every day for the next 15 days, including when you first wake up and right before sleep. Here it is: “Promise me you will not spend so much time treading water and trying to keep your head above the waves that you forget, truly forget, how much you have always loved to swim.”

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): In 2003, a group of thieves in Antwerp, Belgium, pulled off the biggest jewelry heist in history. To steal the diamonds, gold, and other gems, together worth more than $100 million, they had to outsmart security guards, a seismic sensor, a protective magnetic field, Doppler radar, infrared detectors, and a lock. I mention this, Leo, because I suspect that in the coming weeks you will have a comparable ability to insinuate yourself into the presence of previously inaccessible treasures and secrets and codes. You’ll be able to penetrate barriers that have kept you shut off from valuable things. (P.S. But I hope that unlike the Antwerp thieves, you’ll use your superpowers in an ethical manner.)

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): In the northeast corner of Spain, bordering France, is an area known as Catalonia. With its own culture and language, it has a long history of seeking complete autonomy. On four occasions it has declared itself to be independent from Spain. The most recent time was in 2017, when 92 percent of the Catalans who voted expressed the desire to be free of Spain’s rule. Alas, none of the rebellions have succeeded. In the latest instance, no other nation on Earth recognized Catalonia’s claim to be an independent republic. In contrast to its frustrated attempts, your own personal quest to seek greater independence could make real progress in the coming months. For best results, formulate a clear intention and define the precise nature of the sovereignty you seek. Write it down!

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): A Libran blogger named OceanAlgorithms

wrote, “I’m simultaneously wishing I were a naturalist whose specialty is finding undiscovered species in well-explored places; and a skateboarding mathematician meditating on an almost-impossible-to-solve equation as I practice my skateboard tricks; and a fierce forest witch who casts spells on nature-despoilers; and a gothic heroine with 12 suitors; and the sexiest cat that ever lived.” I love how freewheeling and wide-ranging OceanAlgorithms is with her imaginative fantasies. In light of current astrological omens, I encourage you to do the same. Give yourself permission to dream and scheme extravagantly.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Geologists aren’t exactly sure why, but almost 6 million years ago, the Strait of Gibraltar closed up. As a result, the Mediterranean Sea was cut off from the Atlantic Ocean, and within a thousand years, it had mostly disappeared. Fast forward 600,000 years. Again, geologists don’t understand how it happened, but a flood broke through the barrier, allowing the ocean to flow back into the Mediterranean basin and restore it to its previous status as a sea. I propose that we invoke that replenishment as a holy symbol for the process you’re engaged in: a replenishment of your dried-out waters.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): I invite you to meditate on this proposal from freelance writer Radha Marcum: “The spiritual definition of love is that when you look at the person you love, it makes you love yourself more.” I hope there’s a lot of that kind of action going on for you in the next four weeks. According to my assessment of life’s secret currents, all of creation will be conspiring to intensify and deepen your love for yourself by intensifying and deepening your love for other people. Cooperate with that conspiracy, please!

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Is there a creature on Earth that’s more annoying than the mosquito? I’ve never heard anyone gaze upon one of the pesky monsters sucking blood out of her arm and say, “Aw, what a cute little bug.” And yet every year there is a town in Russia that holds a jokey three-day celebration in honor of the mosquito. The people who live in Berezniki even stage a “most delicious” competition, in which people allow themselves to be pricked by mosquitoes for 20 minutes, with an award going to whomever accumulates the most bites. I highly approve of the spirit of this approach for your own use in the coming weeks, Capricorn. If you have fun with the things that bother you, I bet they won’t bother you as much.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): It’s the Forever Season, Aquarius. You have a poetic license to act as if your body will live for a hundred years and your soul will live for all eternity. You are authorized to believe that in the coming decades you will grow steadily wiser, kinder, happier, and wilder. During the Forever Season, you may have dreams like flying over a waterfall at sunset, or finding the lost magic you were promised before you were born, or discovering the key to a healing you feared would always elude you. As you careen through this unpredictable grace period, your understanding of reality may expand dramatically. I bet you’ll get practical epiphanies about how to express yourself with greater effectiveness.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): A musical historian from Cambridge University decided it would be amusing to perform forgotten songs that were written in the Rhineland a thousand years ago. His research wasn’t easy, because musical notation was different back then. But he ultimately reconstructed the tunes in ways that he felt were 80 percent faithful to the originals. He and other musicians subsequently performed and recorded them. I propose a somewhat comparable assignment for you in the coming weeks, Pisces. You will benefit, I believe, from trying to recover the truth about events that occurred a long time ago and/or by trying to revivify old beauty that has new relevance. ∆
