HORMONES: BALANCING THE ENDOCRINE SYSTEM with Naturopathic Physician Dr Tonya Fleck ND

1220 A 41st Avenue, in the Begonia Plaza, Capitola, CA 95010 (831) 464-4113 â&#x20AC;˘ Open Daily â&#x20AC;˘ www.wayoflife.net

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m personally most grateful for his organizing, in the early to middle 1970s, a series of weekly readings at downtown restaurants that virtually created a Santa Cruz literary community.

Mortonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s organizational energies and skills with publicity brought together a vastly diverse assortment of writers to hear one anotherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work, and these well-attended gatherings generated friendships and collegial relations many of which continue to this day. For young writers looking for likeminded souls with whom to interact and compete and sometimes seduce, and for an audience to witness our performances, the Marcus touch as social director, carnival barker and ringmaster set a standard I have never seen surpassed.

As Joe Stroud said to me, choking back tears, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think Mort is going to be someone weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to miss more and more.

Beyond the boombast [sic!] and the bullshit, he was an amazing man.â&#x20AC;?

Literary Friendships It was Jim and Jeanne Houston who first cajoled Mort and his family into

moving to Santa Cruz. Jim Houston and Marcus had been graduate students together at Stanford in the early 1960s, and their friendship then evolved into a lifelong personal and literary alliance as they became twin towers of accomplishment in their respective disciplines, Jim in prose and Mort in poetry. Their illnesses and deaths within six months of each other this year are a devastating double blow to local culture. Both in their early 70s, both still working right up to the end (Mort completed his final book two days before he died), they represent the passing of an irreplaceable generation.

And yet, their example serves as a continuing inspiration to all the other writers they befriended here. And other artists too, like Mortâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s friend Futzie Nutzle, learned from and were inspired by his vision. â&#x20AC;&#x153;He had some kind of ability to point things out to us,â&#x20AC;? Nutzle told me. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think he pointed out the beauty . . . but it took him a while because he was so tough.â&#x20AC;?

That toughness, that scrappy street-fighter tenacity, surely accounts for the fact that it took the kidney cancer he was

diagnosed with two years agoâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;a cancer that would have been swiftly fatal for most peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;so long to finish him off. Morton simply did not give up, even when he knew the cause was lost.

I remember a conversation we had over sushi and sake one night in the 1990s, when he admitted to me that he felt he had not measured up to his original ambition to be a truly great and famous writer. As with most of us who begin with such lofty goals and dreams, those illusions had given way to a more realistic assessment of his achievement. But he realized that was no small thing, and that all the books heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d published, the magazines and anthologies in which his work had appeared, all the readings and lectures heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d given and classes heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d taught and articles heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d written and friendships heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d cultivated and events heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d organized added up to a lasting contribution to his communityâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;both the local one and the larger immortal fellowship of literature with which he felt forever affiliated.

Morton Marcus left his mark on Santa Cruz, and on each of us who had the singular luck to know him.

As Nutzle said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hard to believe that somebody of his magnitude is somewhere else now.â&#x20AC;?

A memorial service for Morton Marcus will be held Saturday, Nov. 7, 1â&#x20AC;&#x201C;3pm at the Cabrillo Crocker Theater, Cabrillo College, 6500 Soquel Dr., Aptos.

The Marcus family is donating Mortonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s poetry collection and literary papers to the Morton Marcus Poetry Archive, to be housed at McHenry Library, UCSC. In lieu of flowers, taxdeductible contributions to benefit the archive can be sent to: Library Development Office, Attn: Morton Marcus Poetry Archive, UCâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;Santa Cruz, 1156 High St., Santa Cruz.

Crime Time Players Police say residents need to step up support 0G 1C@B7A 1/@B73@

ITH the city still stunned by the stabbing death of 16-year-old Tyler Tenorio, a double shooting on Pacific Avenue, a home invasion rape on the Westside and a serial groper on the loose, news that Halloween weekend was relatively peaceful couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have come at a better time. But now that the 71 extra law enforcement officers that helped patrol the streets and skies of Santa Cruz over the weekend have gone back to their respective cities and agencies, local leaders are faced with cracking down on crime in a sustainable, long-term fashion. For Santa Cruz Mayor Cynthia Mathews, this means asking local residents to bring their ideas to a public safety forum next Tuesday, Nov. 10. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think public safety is always one of our top priorities, but right now itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really in the spotlight,â&#x20AC;? says Mathews, who says sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll devote the entire 7pm session of the Santa Cruz City Council meeting that evening to addressing the recent violence. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want to say exactly what weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re prepared to do yet, but I want to end that meeting by taking serious action to address safety concerns.â&#x20AC;?

A day before hordes of costumewearing revelers descended on Pacific Avenue, a joint law enforcement task force tracked down 45 documented gang members and arrested 21 of them for drug and weapons charges and as parole and probation infractions.

Additionally, a drug-buying sting on lower Pacific Avenue netted five arrests.

Santa Cruz Police Capt. Steve Clark says the preemptive â&#x20AC;&#x153;sweepâ&#x20AC;? was aimed at sending a message to would-be criminals that Santa Cruz will be an increasingly uncomfortable environment for gangsters or drug dealers. Clark also says, however, that keeping the city safe will take more than added police and additional gang crackdowns. He says it will require a â&#x20AC;&#x153;holisticâ&#x20AC;? effort by the entire community. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Though law enforcement has a role, we canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be the only response. The city needs to wake up and realize that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve created an environment that allows violence and crime to form,â&#x20AC;? he says.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;[Santa Cruz residents] need to voice their support for law enforcement and be willing to follow through with their ability to pay for it as well. You canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just throw money at police, but weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re down 10 sworn officers and several unsworn [community service officers] as well.

And the ones that are working have to go through work furloughs. All this goes toward creating an environment that allows a tragedy like what happened to Tyler Tenorio to happen.â&#x20AC;?

¡G]c QO\¸b Xcab bV`]e []\Sg Ob ^]ZWQS Pcb eS¸`S R]e\ ae]`\ ]TTWQS`a O\R aSdS`OZ c\ae]`\ ]TTWQS`a Oa eSZZ¸ Clark is hoping the city will spring for additional police officers, but Santa Cruz Vice Mayor Mike Rotkin says thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all but impossible given the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s fiscal woes.

Instead, he says that steps like installing additional streetlights on Lower Pacific Avenue, shifting existing police resources to concentrate on gang suppression, and looking into rehiring a countyand-city-funded gang diversion officer to work with at-risk youth are on the table. He also says that the city is taking unwarranted heat for appearing to wait to get tough on public safety until after serious crimes rocked the community. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People have a sense of, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Gosh, we werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t doing anything until people started getting stabbed,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not as if we havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been working on this problem all along,â&#x20AC;? says Rotkin. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The gang sweep that caught 21 gang members and a bunch of drug dealers was planned well before there was a stabbing or a rape. And sweeps like that will be stepped up even more. People should bring us their suggestions, but also keep an open mind that this is something we didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just start caring about.â&#x20AC;? 0

The Secret Life of Bartenders They hear it all.

They see it all. If you catch them just right, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll tell it all. >6=B=A 0G 27</ A1=>>3BB=<3 7<B3@D73EA 0G @C:/ /: </A@/E7 1C@B7A 1/@B73@ 0@7/< 6/@93@ B@/17 6C97:: 83AA71/ :CAA3<6=> /<2 /CAB7< A/@23::/

O thirsty patrons, a bartender is a hero with a thousand faces: analyst, confessor, entertainer, clown, crush, captive audience, authority figure, giver of all good things, withholder of same, fount of wisdom or triviaâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;even friend, for all we know (and hope). When we walk in the door and perch on that bar stool, we see someone with godlike powers to make us happy.

Someone wise. Someone whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got it all together.

So howâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the view from the other side of the bar? Well, letâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just say the entire spectrum of human behavior is on display in all its glorious abundance.

The bartender whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s surprised is the bartender whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s new. A person canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t help but learn a thing or two about human nature from watching this spectacle on a full-time basis. In fact, bartenders may be the most reliable anthropologists working today. We convinced a half-dozen of them to share their wisdom with us. ¨ #

People all the time will come in and think theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re your friend, but in reality theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re just a customer. You might think Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m your big buddy, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s my job to make you feel welcome, and at the end of the day I go home to my apartment.

But still, over the years Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve met some great friends working hereâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;people I hope to know for the rest of my life. The Poet is a unique bar, and in this setting we have a lot of regulars, and there have been plenty of people who start off as customers, but end up as friends. It just takes time.

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d say common sense. That will really help you get far with a bartender.

Politeness. Say â&#x20AC;&#x153;hello,â&#x20AC;? donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wave money, donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t whistle. If itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s busy donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t call me over if you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know what you want.

And ultimately, just donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t piss off the bartender. In this world we have a lot of power, we can make your night great or terrible.

We had a guy put his body through our front window. He took a swing at a random customer and we finally got him out and we got the door shut and he came and put his body through the window to try and get at us. Then he called the next day asking why we put him through a window!

Sometimes people bring a bad vibe, theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll spoil the vibe and customers will get up and leave. Actually, a guy came in here, was having problems with his wife and I had advice. I had just been through a breakup and I offered him some words of encouragement. He was a cool guy, he was pretty happy afterwards.

SHANE PETERSON: Sending drinks over and stuff is kind of cheesy, but it depends on the situation. It helps if you have the bartender working on your side, and he kind of smooths things over, says something like, â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is from the gentleman over there.â&#x20AC;? You always have to work with the bartender.

keep track of who tips well, our high rollers take care of us, we always take care of them first. But just being reasonable. People can be kind of demanding in this business.

Bartenders hate blended drinks.

Anything blended with more than five ingredients. If you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in it, you shouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t order it.

S MORNING broke on Oct. 20, little was different about Pacific Avenue. Some defied the few patrolling police cruisers by smoking on the sly, concealing their sins in their pockets.

They grinned at the victories, knowing that soon smoking tobacco downtown would be a distant memory. By midday the few who dared to violate the ban were huddled in back alleys. The tension between smokers and nonsmokers had escalated: the judging glares were more righteous than before, backed by the

authority of law, and the defiant return stares of those who dared to smoke in public were still more rebellious.

Fortunately, Santa Cruz nightlife does offer a spark of relief in these postapocalyptic times for smokers. There are several secret hovels every black-lung should know if they are going to survive in this brave new world, but discretion being the better part of pallor, this cloakand-dagger guide is based on hidden clues. Read carefully and be rewarded with a well deserved drink and smoke.

j #

A/<B/1@CH 1=; november 4-11, 2009 1=D3@ AB=@G

Yeah, Right!

The Smokerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Tour begins just a few blocks from downtown, not far from a place where books get decapitated. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Absolutely no smokingâ&#x20AC;? reads the sign above the parlor, but this has clearly been nothing more than a joke for several decades. With its crimson walls and year-round Halloween decorations tucked in a ceiling corner, this is a relaxing place to chat and an important stop on any smokerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bar crawl. Check for performances by local blues acts; the intimate concerts are a blast.

When the clock tower chimes, the

smoker will want to hurry in to check out this next stop, which is ranked by local experts as a quality dive. The jukebox, like the patrons, is caught between a few decades, but despite the melting pot of tastes thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always a warm atmosphere and a line for the lone pool table. The drinks are fairly priced, and they mix a mean White Russian.

The night tour continues by ambling back toward the main drag, and close to 10:10pm the tourist will find a radical stimulus in the next stop, better known

for its musical performances. If you ask for an ashtray at the bar upstairs, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be promptly told no and given one.

The pool hall is free to play Sunday through Tuesday nights, but if you want to play, bring your game; there will be competition for the tables and the regulars are very good.

Ifs, Ands and Butts The next stop has the same problem with childhood nicknames that many of us grew up with, which probably caused some of us to become nasty smokers in the first place. We here at Smokers Tour wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t pretend this place is something itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s notâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s definitely a diveâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s diveâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s worth stopping in for the strong, cheap drinks and laid-back atmosphere.

When youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve come to the end of the road, close to one of the larger, ringed planets in our solar system, the tourist will find another home away from home for smokers. The nice thing about this spot is the heated back patio, giving the option of smoking outdoors in comfort. Shooting pool here on an afternoon feels like hanging out in a friendâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s garage. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Judge not, lest ye be judgedâ&#x20AC;? is the attitude the next stop takes toward smoking as the tour departs the downtown area. One of the more intimate bars off the main strip, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not much pretense about a theme here. The license plate reading â&#x20AC;&#x153;asshole alleyâ&#x20AC;? suffices, and the smoke-toting pool sharks seem to know what theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doing. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t lose your money to them.

A coffee pot brews beside bottles of Galliani Bacardi and Smirnoff, and even when youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve already got a drink, there arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t many finer things in the world than a cigarette and coffee. To catch up on Desperate Housewives or other prime time drama over a stiff whiskey, drink here.

James Bond would appreciate the next stop, although the Santa Cruz Smokerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Tour may now stop dropping hints and name smoking parlor OneDouble-Oh-Seven on Soquel as a place to legally have a cigarette indoors over a drink. Now hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a smokerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s paradise: stacked packs of American Spirit and Camel Lights right next to the Wild Turkey. Sports fans especially have hit the jackpot, with flat screen viewing of basketball or any other important game playing at the time. Stocked with Tanqueray, Beefeater and Bombay, this is an excellent spot to shoot pool, throw darts or catch a Lakers free throw.

Port in a Storm Indie folk act Port Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brien rides out tough times in its new release 0G /2/; 8=A3>6

A

T THE FESTIVAL in the Forest in Big Sur two years ago, the Oakland-based folk outfit Port Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brien distributed a barrage of pots and pans to audience members to encourage rhythm participation in their highly contagious anthemic singalong, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I Woke Up Today.â&#x20AC;?

Today, such rambunctiousness seems an eon away. The release of their new album, Threadbare, marks a bittersweet period for the group: in the early stages of recording their sophomore album, band member Cambria Goodwinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s younger brother was killed in a car accident. But instead of taking a break from recording, Port Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brienâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s core members, Goodwin and Van Pierszalowski, embraced the tragedy and used it to craft what may be their most alluring work yet. Traces of John Lennonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s masterful Plastic Ono Bandâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;also inspired by tragedy and turmoilâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;run through the album like healthy veins. We caught up with Pierszalowski en route to Texas after visiting New Orleans for the first time, a week before Port Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brienâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Nov. 7 show at the Brookdale Lodge with bassist Ryan Stively. Singer/songwriter Lauren Shera and Tyson Vogel of Two Gallants will open. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Before [the death] we really didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know what kind of record we wanted to make. We only had loose ideas for a few possible songs,â&#x20AC;? Pierszalowski says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It really put everything into perspective and gave the record a purpose that it didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have before.â&#x20AC;?

The bereavement theme is definitely a new one for Port Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brien. Their first album consisted mainly of jangly love letters to salty dogs and the open sea

inspired by Pierszalowskiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s summers working on his dadâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s commercial salmon boat in Alaska, where Goodwin also spent her summers working as a baker. Pierszalowski describes Threadbare as a â&#x20AC;&#x153;real story with a narrativeâ&#x20AC;? that runs much deeper than the plucky All We Could Do Is Sing.

The album fittingly begins with the melancholic lullaby â&#x20AC;&#x153;High Without the Hope 3.â&#x20AC;? The sleepy tune blends weepy acoustic guitar strums with Goodwinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s weary voice, sweetly mourning her brotherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s death. The song is reprised in the albumâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bookend, â&#x20AC;&#x153;High Without the Hope 72.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was a real inspiring time for [Goodwin]; she was on a roll and wrote most of the lyrics,â&#x20AC;?

Pierszalowski says.

But one of the best things about the record is it never becomes completely caught up in its sadness. Goodwin and Pierszalowski donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t let it eat away at their souls. Port Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Brienâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s trademark happy-go-lucky folk feel persists. â&#x20AC;&#x153;My Will Is Goodâ&#x20AC;? is a punchy jaunt that begins with mellow humming and eventually erupts into f luttering percussion and intermittent rhythm

guitar chops. Pierszalowskiâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lyrical delivery on â&#x20AC;&#x153;Sour Milk/Salt Waterâ&#x20AC;? recalls Michael Stipeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rapid-fire tongue-twister on R.E.Mâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s â&#x20AC;&#x153;The End of the World as We Know It (and I Feel Fine).â&#x20AC;? The triumphant cacophony of instrumentals and vocals makes for the most upbeat tune on the album, even though the lyrics themselves arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t the peppiest. Pierszalowski says theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re a bitter testament to the years he worked as a salmon fisherman and the folks whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never experienced that kind of grueling manual labor. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re completely proud of this album,â&#x20AC;? Pierszalowski says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;After we heard the master recording for the first time, it felt so satisfying because it took so long and went through so many different phases. It was exhausting but rewarding.â&#x20AC;?

PORT Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;BRIEN plays Saturday, Nov. 7, at 8pm at the Brookdale Lodge, 11570 Hwy. 9, Brookdale.

Ariel Sabarâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s journey to an Iraqi Jewish past

/<2G <3:A=<

Son of a Lost Tribe 0G /CAB7< A/@23::/

I

N THE LATE 1940s and early 1950s, following the establishment of the state of Israel and heightened hostility toward Jews inside Iraq, some 120,000 Kurdish Jews were airlifted out of the mountainous area known as Kurdistan and relocated to Israel.

Research for Ariel Sabarâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s awardwinning work of nonfiction, My Fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Paradise: A Sonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Search for His Familyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Past, led him to a corner of Kurdish Iraq so remote that the few Jews still living there speak Aramaic, the language of Jesus. Austin Sardella interviewed Sabar in advance of his Nov. 5 reading at Capitola Book CafĂŠ about rediscovering his ancestral homeland.

ARIEL SABAR: I think one of the things they can learn is that the violent Iraq we see in the headlines today is not representative of the nation. Zakho is a microcosm of the place where people get along, with small groups of Jews getting along with Muslims for 3,000 years, and I think this is a hopeful story.

EVOb eOa g]c` PWUUSab aV]QY eVS\ dWaWbW\U 9c`RWaV 7`O_-

How different it was from how Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d imagined it from my fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s description. I imagined a sleepy backwater, like a fairy tale. But Zakho is now one of the safest borders into Iraq, and itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hurtling into the future with the Iraq reconstruction effort. I saw spanking new gas stations and hotels, and SUVs and BMWs with television screens built into the backs of the seats.

One thing that stayed the same was the warm reception. You hear about anti-Semitic Iraq, with Saddam, and then you get there and hear, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Why has it taken you so long to visit? Tell your brothers and sisters in Israel to come back!â&#x20AC;? They didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t share the anti-Semitism. They invited us in for tea. The Kurds are still a people who embrace other religions.

Very few. Baby words. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bisho bishoâ&#x20AC;? for bath, for one, which is a kind of onomatopoeiaâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;you can hear the water splashing. He didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t see teaching his children the language as his mission. He had more practical views for usâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;who would we speak it with? His mission was to preserve the language for scholars.

He doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t like being in the spotlight or even having people talk about him.

He was wary of the idea at first. When he saw it, he was surprised. He had read the narrative of his life, seen the dots connected in a way he hadnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t. He began to see what I was doing as the same thing he was: building a lifeboat to the old culture.

B63 B@703 6/A A>=93< Tribal makeup, fire dancers and earth goddesses are a lot closer to home than you might think. On Friday, Nov. 6, Santa Cruz photographer Kyer Wiltshire hosts a release party at the Vets Hall for his new book Tribal Revival: West Coast Festival Culture, followed by a dance party and jam sesh (admission free with purchase of book). Tribal Revival presents a photographic narrative of flower children, ravers and world travelers from festivals all along the West Coast. Thanks to Wiltshire, now we know where the wild things are.

Friday, Nov. 6, at 8pm at the Vets Hall, 846 Front St., Santa Cruz.

Film Capsules <3E 1/>A B63 0=F (PG-13; 116 min.) Am I crazy, or is this movie based on the â&#x20AC;&#x153;Button, Buttonâ&#x20AC;? episode from the â&#x20AC;&#x2122;80s Twilight Zone? Well, obviously, it is, since the setup about the button that will give you a million dollars if you press it, but kill someone you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know, is exactly the same. It was one of the better episodes, short and sweet with the chilling, twisty line of dialogue at the end. That undoubtedly had to be

thrown out the window for this big expansion of the story into a weird conspiracy flick from the director of Donnie Darko. Also, check out the hilarious parody of this idea at funnyordie. com. â&#x20AC;&#x153;No deal!â&#x20AC;? (Opens Fri at Santa Cruz 9, Scotts Valley Cinema and Green Valley Cinema.) (SP) / 16@7AB;/A 1/@=:

(PG; 96 min.) Robert Zemeckis, the guy who brought us 2004â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s The Polar Express, vies with CVS for earliest seasonal statement with this pre-preseason release of the animated classic.

Scrooge is voiced by Jim Carrey; also features the voices of Gary Oldman, Colin Firth and Robin Wright Penn. (Opens Fri at 41st Avenue, Santa Cruz 9, Scotts Valley Cinema and Green Valley Cinema.)

(R; 105 min.) Geez, now hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a movie with a bad attitude! And a pottymouth! And, incredibly, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not about the Damned. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a soccer movie about Brian Clough, briefly the coach of Leeds United.

min.) Remember how Spielbergâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s close encounters were of the third kind? Well, this alien-abduction thriller is what happens when you get the fourth kind. Although, in a confusing twist, the close encounters in Close Encounters of the Third Kind were actually of the fourth kind. (Opens Fri at Santa Cruz 9, Scotts Valley Cinema and Green Valley Cinema.)

Movie reviews by Traci Hukill, Steve Palopoli and Richard von Busack

HBOâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s show Flight of the Conchords, and one of the best bits was the episode in which Jemaine kept appearing to Bret as David Bowie from various incarnations of his career. Jemaine (waking him up): â&#x20AC;&#x153;Bret!

Bret! Bret! Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 1986 David Bowie from the movie Labyrinth!â&#x20AC;? Bret: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Yeah, I know.â&#x20AC;? And how could you not?

No portrayal in film history has ever looked or sounded quite like Bowie does in this film.

Can you imagine any other top rock star in the â&#x20AC;&#x2122;80s doing a film

where he plays with puppets and sings a song with the lyrics â&#x20AC;&#x153;What kind of magic spell to use?/ Slime and snails/ Or puppy dogsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; tailsâ&#x20AC;??

Michael Jackson does not count, although legend has it that he was considered for this role.

The British comedy troupeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s howlingly funny sendup of organized religion managed to offend almost everyone with such characters as Brian, a contemporary of Jesus whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mistaken for the Messiah; his mustachioed mother Mandy; masses of idiot Jews willing to follow even a schlub like Brian but too riddled by infighting to stand up to the Romans; and a Roman centurion named Biggus Dickus. Banning it for blasphemy became the pastime of rinkydink town councils and some American states; Ireland wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have it for eight years. Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be whistling the final musical number for weeks. (Plays Thu at the Santa Cruz 9.) (TH) C<B7B:32 (R; 103

min.) Satire paints the New York art scene as pretentious. Stop the presses. (Opens Fri at the Nickelodeon.) (SP)

@3D73EA /;3:7/ (PG; 119 min.) If there ever was a figure who deserved a postmodern bio, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Amelia Earhart, since she left so many questions behind. Mira Nairâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Amelia spins the time frame around, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s done in the standard fashion: incidents of her final world-circling flight are intercut with scenes from the beginning of the aviatorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s career.

Amelia is very much the canned biopic that exists solely because a celebrated actress is playing on a physical resemblance. Hilary Swank does look like Earhart, grinning large, with freckles and bleached hair. But repeat offender Ron Bassâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; prolix script keeps underlining every relationship with a yellow felt pen. The film is a little more frank about Earhartâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life than previous versions of the story, and tells of an affair with the Washington socialite and West Point instructor Eugene Vidal

(Ewan McGregor). The staging of the finale over the Pacific is dramatic enough. Still, if it werenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t for the ending, Amelia would be the in-flight movie par-excellence: the kind of movie that seems to be made for the purpose of watching itself. (RvB) /AB@= 0=G (PG; 94 min.) This smart, fast CGI cartoon is faithful to Osamu Tezukaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s endearing star of manga and anime. In the future, the art deco Metro City floats in the sky like Jonathan Swiftâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Laputa.

Its dictatorial president (Donald Sutherland does the voice) is trying to arrange a war to ensure his victory in the upcoming election.

During a demonstration of a new form of atomic power, the son of the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s greatest scientist (Nicolas Cage) is vaporized. The scientist tries to reincarnate the boy in powerful robot form. Like Dr. Frankenstein, he rejects the creature that results. Stranded in an underworld of the poor and discarded, Astro (Freddie Highmore) learns how the other half lives before returning to the city of his birth to defeat the power-mad leader. The filmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s antimilitarism is robust.

(PG-13; 104 min.) Joe Warr (Clive Owen) seemingly has it allâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;a good marriage, a job as a sports writer and an offthe-road bungalow not too far from the beach in south Australia. Then, his wife suddenly dies. Joe holds away intruders and decides to try to raise his young son Artie (Nichols McAnulty) by himself, eventually sending for his other son, Harry (George MacKay), from a British boarding school. Out of grief, distraction and compassion, Joe decides to let his kids run wildâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; a â&#x20AC;&#x153;just say yesâ&#x20AC;? policy that manifests itself with bike riding in the house, pizza in bed and chickens strutting indoors.

Director Scott Hicks, best known for Shine, can capture a dreamy, impressionistic moment, such as the opening scene of Bob letting his son ride on the hood

Despite this likable travelogue, The Boys Are Back tends to lay everything outâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;complete with regular appearances by the wifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ghost. The film canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t escape the sitcom mawkishness of the premise, no matter how much restrained sensitivity Owen radiates.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been 20 years since Michael Moore made Roger & Me, about the layoffs that devastated Flint, Mich. The only thing that has changed today is that Flint is worse, and its woes have spread throughout the United States. Moore makes a nationwide tour of todayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wreckage. He follows the collapse of the real estate market and sits with the victims of a family farm eviction in upstate New York.

After a stint as a saloon singer, Coco calculates her way into bed with a wealthy rouĂŠ named Etienne Balsan (Benoit Poelvoorde).

Director Anne Fontaine reminds us that this is a movie from the country that gave us The Rules of the Game. What could have been a dull birdin-the-gilded-cage story turns urbane, with the ever-changing flow of power between the slightly wizened but sporty decadent. When Balsan realizes that

The fox in question: a British businessman nicknamed â&#x20AC;&#x153;Boyâ&#x20AC;? (Alessandro Nivola). The end titles call the house of Chanel an empire, but Tautouâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; last seen, cigarette on lip, in a cage of mirrors, surrounded by models wearing her gownsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; makes it look like mostly hard work. Tautou is unusually sharp: itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s easy to imagine why someone would love admire such a moody, direct woman.

(R; 113 min.) All the themes in the Coen brothersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; previous films blend harmoniously in this terrific tale of comedic woe and horror.

Minneapolis, 1967: a meek professor Larry Gopnik (stage actor Michael Stuhlbarg, looking like a dispirited Harold Lloyd) teaches

physics at a small college.

Gopnik is tantalized with the possibility of tenure, betrayed by his wife with their neighbor Sy Ableman, a clammy, polyester-clad swine (Fred Melamed, brilliant). Gopnikâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s son Danny (Aaron Wolff) has a cowlike indifference to his fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plight. And Larry must take charge of his unemployable brother Arthur (Richard Kind), an obese holy fool. The postmodern moments give A Serious Man a vaudeville kick: a prologue about the appearance of a demon in the old-time Jewish ghetto is staged like a lost episode of Mario Bavaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Black Sunday. In another of this filmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s parables, a Hebrew message is carved by God into the teeth of a gentile to teachâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;what? some indecipherable lesson, like the physics equations on Larryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s chalkboard, like the Hebrew letters Danny is too dumb to learn. Photographer Roger Eakins and composer Carter Burwell do outstanding work making these episodes coalesce into a fever dream of persecution and encroachment.

101 min.) The beast

suitsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;part costumes, part CGIâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;are accurate versions of the Sendak illustrations. Max Records seems just right as Max, the little boy whose father is out of the picture, who flees to a monster island.

The feature film gives children due respect for their towering moods.

But childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s moods change, and this filmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mood doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s essentially gloomy, like a collection of Peanuts strips clipped of their punch lines. The film is staged in an Australian forest, the domain of seven or eight depressed creatures (Lauren Ambrose, James Gandolfini and Catherine Oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Hara, among others). Theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re cautious and fretful; they form cliques and snipe at each other. The rumpusing beastliness always ends with some injury, as per Momâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s warning about how itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all fun and games until someone gets hurt. Scriptwriter Dave Eggersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; work is typically formless, cute and drifty.

Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s no artistic force behind this movie, only whims and anxieties. A parting word from the beasts, â&#x20AC;&#x153;When you go home, will you say good things about us?,â&#x20AC;? seems addressed to a baffled

audience. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be a cult item for aging-children hipster types, the ones who would wear their terrycloth wolf-suits to work if they could.

(RvB) H=;073:/<2 (R; 88 min.) Under a plague of the living dead, the United States is in ruins, and the nervous college-age hero (Jesse Eisenberg) calls the dreadful landscape Zombieland. He joins three reluctant companions: a Twinkiesloving cowboy called Tallahassee (Woody Harrelson), a fast female loner named Wichita (Emma Stone) and her little sis, Little Rock (Abigail Breslin). They head to a place where they think the light at the end of the tunnel still shines: Disneyland, renamed â&#x20AC;&#x153;Pacific Playland.â&#x20AC;? Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s merit to the idea of a turkeyshoot zombie-killing finale amid colored lights and spinning rides, but the film doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get more imaginative than anything seen in the previews. Under Ruben Fleischerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s bare-bones direction, Zombieland is slathered with narration. Harrelson is a fierce-looking party, but he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get Westernlyrical enough.

Guardians of Being

By Rob Brezsny

For the week of November 4 /@73A (March 21â&#x20AC;&#x201C;April 19): There was a time when wetlands were considered dismal and unproductive.

At best they were thought to be a waste of space, and at worst stinky breeding grounds for insect pests. For over 200 years, many marshes, bogs and swamps were filled with dirt and transformed into places suitable for farms, houses and recreational areas. But all that has changed in the last 30 years. Science has rehabilitated the reputation of wetlands, showing how crucial they are. They clean toxins from water, help control floods and soil erosion, and are home to more biological diversity than any other ecosystem. The coming weeks would be an excellent time for you to make a comparable conversion, Aries. Something you once demeaned or underestimated could become an inspirational catalyst.

B/C@CA (April 20â&#x20AC;&#x201C;May 20): In the coming week, you will have the potential to articulate what has never been spoken before and to name truths that everyone has been avoiding. Uncoincidentally, you may also be able to hear what youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never been able to hear up until now and tune in to truths youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been oblivious to. As you might imagine, Taurus, you must fully activate both of these capacities in order for either to function at its best.

53;7<7 (May 21â&#x20AC;&#x201C;June 20): Natureâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rhythm is cyclical. Everything alive waxes and wanes. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re smart, you honor that flow by periodically letting parts of your world wither or go to sleep. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not so smart, you set yourself up for needless pain by indulging in the delusion that you can enjoy uninterrupted growth. According to my reading of the astrological omens, Gemini, this is your time to explore the creative possibilities of ebbing and slackening. Ask yourself the following question, which Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve borrowed from the Jungian author Clarissa Pinkola Estes: â&#x20AC;&#x153;What must I allow to die today in order to generate more life tomorrow?â&#x20AC;?

1/<13@ (June 21â&#x20AC;&#x201C;July 22): Pregnant women sometimes have unusual cravings. From the fourth to sixth month of her daughterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gestation period, for example, my friend Marta was on occasion beset by the longing to eat toothpaste. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve known other women who fantasized about nibbling on mud, coffee grounds and chalk. Fortunately, they all resisted the urge, which is what health practitioners recommend. Instead they tried to figure out if their bodies were trying to tell them about some legitimate deficiency of vitamins or minerals. I offer this to you as a metaphor to keep in mind. As your own special creation ripens, you may experience odd desires. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t necessarily take them at face value.

:3= (July 23â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Aug. 22): It might be tempting to turn your home into a womblike sanctuary and explore the mysteries of doing absolutely nothing while clad in your pajamas. And frankly, this might be a good idea.

After the risks youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve taken to reach out to the other side, after the bridges youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve built in the midst of the storms, after the skirmishes youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve fought in the Gossip Wars, you have every right to retreat and get your homebody persona humming at a higher vibration.

So I say: Be meticulously leisurely as you celebrate the deep pleasures of self-care.

D7@5= (Aug. 23â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Sept. 22): â&#x20AC;&#x153;Hey Rob: I was having trouble finishing my novelâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;typical writerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s block.

So I sidetracked myself into making silly creative projectsâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;papier-mâchĂŠ chickens, masks made out of junk mail, collages incorporating bottle caps and dryer lint. I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t say any of it is â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;art,â&#x20AC;&#x2122; but I feel creative again and my house is full of colorful stuff I whipped up myself. If you wait to be perfect, I concluded, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll never make anything. I tried something I knew Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d be bad at, so failure didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t matter. Now Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m branching out with my inadequacyâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;not waiting for Mr. Perfect but having a beer with Joe Flawed, forgetting to be right all the time, admitting that I havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t a clue. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve become smilingly, brilliantly dumb.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x201D;Inappropriate Virgo Dear Inappropriate: Congrats! Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re doing exactly what I want to advise all Virgos everywhere to try. :70@/ (Sept. 23â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Oct. 22): At a yard sale today, I paid a dollar for a stained, pocket-sized horoscope book with many of its pages missing. The reason I made such an odd investment is that it had a forecast for Libra for the first part of November 2009, and this forecast struck me as even more useful than the horoscope I had composed for you. As a public service, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m providing it here. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The graceful dragonfly lives for

just a few months. But a sequoia treeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time on earth can last 2,000 years. In the same way, some bonds, some creations, some worlds, endure for a mere blink in eternity, while others are destined to outfox the ravages of time. What will be the lifespan of the dream you recently hatched, Libra? It is time to decide and take action.â&#x20AC;?

A1=@>7= (Oct. 23â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Nov. 21): Your anti-role model â&#x20AC;&#x201D;the person you should be the opposite ofâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;is the Scorpio warrior, U.S. General George Patton, also known as â&#x20AC;&#x153;Old Blood and Guts.â&#x20AC;? He once said, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Practically everyone but myself is a pusillanimous son of a bitch.â&#x20AC;? Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an attitude you should especially avoid in the coming weeks, since your success will depend on you seeing the best in peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;even if they sometimes donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t seem to warrant it. P.S. It may be OK to think of yourself as â&#x20AC;&#x153;Old Blood and Gutsâ&#x20AC;? if and only if you dedicate your ferocity to the service of smart love and ingenious collaboration.

A/57BB/@7CA (Nov. 22â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Dec. 21): Congratulations, Sagittarius! Free Will Astrologyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Task Force on Creative Suffering has confirmed that your current dilemmas are exceptionally interesting and useful.

You have demonstrated an impressive talent for getting embroiled in riddles that promise to bring out your dormant reserves of vitality and ingenuity. The dumfounding questions youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been wrestling with are high-caliber tests that have drawn you closer to the heart of the reasons youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re here on Earth. Take full advantage of this beautiful mess, my dear. Chaos this fertile is hard to come by.

1/>@71=@< (Dec. 22â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Jan. 19): When Dante was 9 years old, long before he became one of Italyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s supreme poets, he fell in love with Beatrice, an 8year-old girl he met at a May Day party. They never had a close relationship. In the years after their initial encounter, they met infrequently, and both eventually married other people. But Beatrice played a crucial role throughout Danteâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life, although she died at the age of 24. She was not just his muse, but also his â&#x20AC;&#x153;beatitude, the destroyer of all vices and the queen of virtue, salvation.â&#x20AC;? Dante even wrote her into his Divine Comedy in the role of a guide. Is there any person or influence in your life equivalent to Beatrice? Any onceupon-a-time blessing that might be ready to give you the fullness of the gifts it has been waiting all this time to deliver? /?C/@7CA (Jan. 20â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Feb. 18): I would love it if you could find a sword that could cut itself. Or a fire that could burn itself. Or some water you could wash. But even if you can conjure the magic to attract an experience that simply resembles one of those marvelous paradoxes, it would set in motion a series of epiphanies that would liberate you from an inferior paradoxâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;a confusing absurdity that is not worthy of you and that has been draining your life force. >7A13A (Feb. 19â&#x20AC;&#x201C;March 20): The planets are aligned in such a way that suggests you may be able to experience an orgasm solely by meditating. This rare cosmic alignment also means that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s conceivable you could generate money or attract new resources by following your holy bliss, or that you might stumble upon the tricky treasure youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been looking for in all the wrong places. But I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t say for sure that you will actually be able to capitalize on any of these remarkable opportunities. It will depend on whether you can more fully express one of the skills that is your birthright as a Pisces: being wild and disciplined at the same time.
