WE CAN HELP Do you or someone you care about rely on prescription drugs or opioid pain medication or heroin to get through the day? Ask the following questions: • Have they ever given up activities to use them? • Are they spending more time on activities to get them? • Have they ever used them despite negative consequences?

If the answer to any of these questions was YES, they may have unintentionally become opioid dependent. Help might be closer than you think.

1>> C> 10=:BC4AB The determination and courage to take action as Michael Carnacchi has done is exactly what we need from American citizens today (“David and Two Goliaths,� Dec. 16). The “banksters� have gotten away with robbing the American citizens for far too long. They have sucked the American government into their cesspool of greed and corruption, and now we get robbed from both ends. Michael is a true hero and patriot. We could use a lot more citizens like him to show them that we refuse to be robbed any further. Please, people get away from the tube and get active! Dancing with the Stars, American Idol and gossip about Hollywood are just a distraction. Know what your government officials are up to before they surprise you. Let them know how you feel about the direction of this country. We have the power to clean house and change the nameplates on the doors of the career politicians

in Washington who have been corrupted by the system. Know your candidates. These are the people that help shape the future for all of us. Go get ’em, Michael!

Brainwashed fools laugh at truth and goodness, and blindly follow the lies and evilness. Watch the ancient druidic sacrificial ritual at the Bohemian Grove. The black death of the god of chaos, the moloch owl, better known as EL, Saturn, Satan, Cronus. Evilness is weakness! Truthiracy.

Our executive editor was really pretty stoked that iconic artist Stanley “Alton Kelley and I Branded the Grateful Dead in an Indelible Way No Band Has Yet Surpassed� Mouse was giving us the illustration for our Dec. 23 cover. Heck, I was really pretty stoked, though I know that Mr. Mouse is a fan of the Bohemian and is sweetly pleased to be modestly placed in our pages, as we strive to do several times a year. Shucks, we were all really pretty stoked about it. And then Christmas struck, that time-sucking vortex which whirls even the best-intentioned editors into an ever narrowing garret of butter-based meals and invisible tape. Spit out of the whirl on Boxing Day, I gave an idle look at the Dec. 23 issue. A cropped detail of Stanley Mouse’s beautiful image indeed graced the cover, but the nipple-proud ladies were gone. Also absent was any mention of Stanley “I Did the Same Thing for Journey� Mouse’s name. With only New Year’s Eve to occupy us this week, we hasten to correct the breach. The entire image by Mr. Stanley Mouse reappears on our Calendar lead (p33) for your inspection and delight, and I’ve hopefully used his name to some number here. In Further Arrrggghhhs One Susie Schlesinger is happy to report via voicemail that internationally renowned sculptor Mark di Suvero finds it a complete hoot that my “Appreciation� of the recently deceased artist Peter Forakis lists Forakis as di Suvero’s mentor, as though Mark was yet a fresh dewy thing eager to understand that steel sometimes bends when you heat it instead of a seventy-something peer and colleague. My apologies to the friends and loved ones of Peter Forakis. Could someone please read this to Mark?

Buried landmines wreak the most damage on post-war civilians and animals; cow and goat corpses mark fields.

Landmines continues to maim and harm long after war is over By Alastair Bland

C

he Balkan war that fragmented Yugoslavia and left more than 100,000 people dead in BosniaHerzegovina and Croatia ended nine years ago, yet its legacy persists. During a recent cycling tour through the Balkans, I frequently swerved around craters in the pavement where grenades had done their work. I saw bullet holes in abandoned cement structures. Vicious political slogans in heavy graffiti dated 1990 were still not painted over. And while these relics were merely novel as historical paraphernalia— hardly dangerous—I learned in BosniaHerzegovina that the war is still very much alive, lurking dormant underfoot. One evening in October as I rolled past a scrubby

field of shrubs, looking for a place to camp, I saw eyeing me from the roadside ditch the image of a white skull, backed by red, and captioned with the chilling word “Mines.� When I returned home, I found a world of information. Throughout the Balkans, activists have identified the sites in which anti-personnel landmines were placed during the war, and thousands of warning signs now stand conspicuously throughout war-scarred regions. A portion of these fields—20 percent in Croatia, for example—have been carefully groomed by trained experts with specialized machinery and officially cleared. De-mining efforts, however, advance slowly and at great cost. Locally, Roots of Peace, a nonprofit based in San Rafael, has supported the Croatian mine-removal efforts. Founded in 1997, Roots of Peace has generated proceeds for

use in de-mining work—including training experts and dogs, acquiring metal detectors and other specialized gear, and utilizing explosives to detonate the devices from a safe distance— and through its “Mines to Vines� project is both helping to clear former vineyards of mines and restore these agricultural lands to their prewar conditions. The esteemed Napa Valley winemaker Mike Grgich, a Croatian native, has contributed $50,000 to Roots of Peace’s effort. Perhaps a half-million mines remain buried in the Balkans, and their removal is extremely costly and dangerous. According to a Nov. 12 report by Landmine Monitor, a research program based in Canada, 954 square kilometers remain “contaminated,� and in 2008 just 12 square kilometers were cleared at a cost of more than $50 million, most of which was supplied by national sources. % -

In Bosnia-Herzegovina, the landmine problem is roughly twice as severe; 1,683 square kilometers remain contaminated, and in 2008 just three square kilometers were cleared at a cost of over $40 million. As in Croatia, BosniaHerzegovina’s 2009 clearance goal has been set back by 10 years, to March 2019. Albania has actually beaten its landmine clearance deadline of August 2010. In late October, 2009 Tony Connell and his team of six de-miners, working on their hands and knees, cleared the last of the small mountainous nation’s known minefields, which had been seeded by Serb paramilitaries during the Kosovo War. “But the thing with landmines is it’s almost impossible to tell that 100 percent of mines in a region are ever gone,� says Connell, program manager with Dan Church Aid, an international NGO that trains de-miners and conducts operations around the world. Connell has participated in de-mining projects for 15 years, and in northern Iraq has encountered some minefields eight miles long riddled with millions of live explosives. To successfully clear a minefield, deminers must follow a strict protocol, Connell explains. They must first locate its approximate boundaries by speaking with locals, consulting ex-soldiers and viewing military maps that Connells says Serb forces, for the most part, have declined to share since the Kosovo War, between Albania and Serbia. Goat and cow corpses also frequently tip off minefield surveyors. The second step is the “technical survey,� in which de-miners use metal detectors to determine the pattern by which the mines were set. “They might be in a straight line or in a zigzag pattern,� Connell says. “They might be two meters apart or 30 centimeters apart.� De-miners locate each device as they crawl slowly forward, and rig it with explosives. The work is tedious, each person clearing no more than 20 square meters per day, one centimeter at a time. De-miners stand 100 to 500 meters away as the mines are detonated, says Connell, who personally saw the destruction of more than 8,000 mines in Albania between 2002 and 2009. The PROM-1 mine is among the most feared types. When triggered, it springs a meter into the air before detonating, inflicting serious face and torso wounds. But in Albania, Connell and his team found mostly “toe-poppers,� small devices that detonate under roughly five pounds of pressure and are intended to take off no more than a person’s foot. Many mines, in fact, are designed only to maim, not kill, under the premise that wounded soldiers impart greater hardship upon comrades, who must carry them to safety. Landmines are notoriously ineffective as weapons of war. Most landmine casualties occur post-conflict, and statistics from Landmine Monitor show that 70 to 85 percent of landmine casualties are civilians. A 1996 report from the International Committee of the Red Cross recognized that anti-personnel landmines “have little or no effect on the outcome of hostilities.� Perhaps the leading problem with landmines is their longevity; they may remain live and active for many decades. Even relatively primitive mines planted during World War I are still producing casualties in parts of Europe and North Africa; in 2009, Tony Connell and his team found live landmines in Albania remaining from World War II.

First used as long ago as the American Civil War, landmines are now devastatingly cheap to build. According to the International Campaign to Ban Landmines, a global network of 70 nations, production costs can run as low $3 per mine, while clearing them runs an average of $1,000 per device. Costs mount through the training of mine-sniffing dogs, hiring personnel, acquiring metal detectors and utilizing explosives to destroy them in post-conflict operations that persist for years. The global effort to create a world free of landmines is accelerating. The Mine Ban Treaty marked a dramatic step forward. At a summit in Ottawa, Canada, on Dec. 3, 1997, 122 nations signed the agreement, and two years later its mandates began to take effect. Today, 156 nations worldwide, including every nation in Europe barring Russia, have agreed to destroy their own stockpiled mine arsenals within four years of signing and clear their own lands or territories of landmines within 10 years. But in Bosnia-Herzegovina, according to a June 2009 report from the BosniaHerzegovina Mine Action Center, 220,000 landmines remain unearthed. Casualties since 1992 number in the thousands, though exact counts vary. These accidents have left a sizeable demographic of handicapped survivors, says Ramiz Becirovic, who works with Landmine Survivors Network in Bosnia-Herzegovina, a nonprofit that aids survivors in reentering society as productive members. Becirovic says that more than 7,000 people in Bosnia-Herzegovina have stepped on a landmine and survived; in 2008, there were 39 injuries—19 of them resulting in deaths—up from 30 total the year prior. In 2008, Croatia had nine casualties—three people killed—up from eight in 2007. While most governments in the world are committed to eliminating the weapons from the earth, the United States remains among the 37 nations which have declined to sign the Ottawa Treaty. Though President Clinton announced his firm intention in 1997 that the United States would become a signatory, it never happened. George W. Bush reneged on the commitment and determined in 2004 not to sign the treaty. Accordingly, the task of landmine clearance falls that much more on NGOs and such nonprofits as Roots of Peace, which through a partnership with the University of Zadar has helped plant 25,000 grapevines and 12,500 apple trees on Croatian lands previously planted with mines. Roots of Peace founder Heidi Kuhn recalls visiting Croatia in 2000 and seeing children leashed to trees and allowed to play in a tight radius of 10 feet. At the time, some 1.2 million mines remained in the nation’s soil. In some places, caution has been cast aside by necessity as many Balkans resume their prewar habits. Firewood cutters, driven by economic desperation, walk into mineriddled forests and constitute a sizeable portion of the nation’s casualties. In western Croatia, I met a man who told me, his wife and daughter at his side, that each fall he walks into documented minefields to hunt birds where his father and grandfather had before him. He shrugged and said uncertainly, “No problem. There is no problem.� Yet the problem is undeniably severe. According to one estimate, 70 nations are currently home to 70 million buried landmines, weapons that do most of their damage in times of peace.

SSU’s financial misadventures with the Green Music Center continue By Steve Orlick

C

he Sonoma State University Foundation’s loans to “friendsâ€? were, at best, a case of poor judgment. As repugnant as this particular practice was, it is only a minor transgression in comparison with the mostly secretive behavior of SSU’s highest administrators while attempting to feed the hungry elephant that has been in SSU’s living room for over 10 years: the Donald and Maureen Green Music Center (GMC). The Greens came to the campus in the late 1990s with an offer of $10 million to build a firstclass choral building. Instead, SSU president ArmiĂąana convinced them to put the same sum toward an even more grand “music centerâ€? named after them. The cost was estimated at $30 million, with the remaining $20 million to come from fundraising efforts by a partnership of the campus and Santa Rosa Symphony. ArmiĂąana promised the campus’ skeptical faculty and Academic Senate that no campus or state resources would be necessary. I recall that the faculty and senate raised serious concerns about the campus’ ability to afford such a large project with so apparently slight value to our underfunded small campus with its very small music program. Flash forward to today, where a recent official estimate of the project’s cost was up to $110 million, the shortfall figured to be $17 million. But because of a continued lack of budget transparency, it is impossible to know what these figures really are, or will be, due in part to the use of campus (state) employees for some of the construction work, and despite efforts to camouflage the costs of personnel employed by the university, such as more than 10 years of salaries in the university’s fundraising (“Developmentâ€?) office. A reasonable estimate of this alone is $7 million to $8 million, all going exclusively to unsuccessful fundraising for the GMC. A more realistic, all-inclusive estimate of the GMC’s ultimate cost will be $130 million or more. The facility will accommodate very few new students and will be of little use as a teaching facility. Roughly 80 to 85 percent of the ultimate cost will, in fact, be borne by taxpayers, as well as by SSU’s students, faculty and staff. Again, due to the nontransparent

financial accounting methods used by SSU’s top administrators, there is no way of estimating the actual amount of money that so far has been diverted to the GMC from SSU’s struggling academic programs. It is likely that the total number of class sections not offered in the past 10 years due to the GMC has been in the thousands. Furthermore, the Santa Rosa Press Democrat reported last year that the GMC will have an annual gap of some $1.15 million between revenue and operating expenses. The PD article states that the deficit “is proposed to be offset by $500,000 [annually] in funds from SSU’s academic and instructional budget and $650,000 from endowments and an annual fundraising drive.� Thus, money is to be taken from SSU’s beleaguered teaching budget to offset losses incurred by the GMC. Taxpayers, students and their parents should be very concerned. The elephant in SSU’s living room is a persisting administration folly. Why did the state’s taxpayers and campus community end up shouldering so much of the financial burden of the GMC’s construction and eventual operation? Why have SSU’s top administrators not been held accountable for how they have spent taxpayers’ and students’ dollars? Why does the campus president, in view of the unprecedented financial problems of the state, CSU and campus, continue to put his personal ego and “vision� ahead of his duty, that being to assure that the students at SSU receive the best education possible within available resources? There are a lot more financial misadventures at SSU yet to be exposed, not the least of which involve the past and present lack of transparency involving all the financial dealings associated with the Donald and Maureen Green Music Center.

Money is to be taken from SSU’s beleaguered teaching budget to offset losses incurred by the Green Music Center.

5XeT ATb^[dcX^]b Mick Winter’s easy tips for a sustainable New Year

By Juliane Poirier

<

ick Winter of Napa is a look-ahead person who translates a world of complexity into simple, practical tasks. He has made everyone’s New Year resolution-making easier this year by consolidating a bunch of earth-saving, optimism-building ideas that will also leave us spending less money in 2010. The following suggestions come from his 2007 book, Sustainable Living: For Home, Neighborhood and Community. The expanded version of this little gem has a f lashier title: Peak Oil Prep: Three Things You Can Do to Prepare for Peak Oil, Climate Change and Economic Collapse. Since Sustainable Living’s publication date predated the current economic collapse, perhaps Winter peers into the big picture with greater perception than some. His list is perfect for beginners who want to start the New Year right and enjoy life more. 1. Replace “Incandescent bulbs,� Winter explains, “are basically little heaters that also produce light. Only 10 percent of the energy they use produces light; the other 90 percent produces heat. This is a very serious waste of energy.� Since PG&E uses coal-fire and other dirty power in California, we can reduce by up to 75 percent per bulb how much of that stuff comes on line by using compact f luorescents instead. While you help the planet, you save $32 over the life of the bulb. “Replace 10 bulbs in your home, and that’s a savings of more than $300,� Winter explains. “A bulb can pay for itself with normal use in just five months.� 2. Move “The physical exercise from moving your body [walking or riding a bike] will increase your blood f low, strengthen all the muscles in your body, loosen your joints, improve your breathing, help you lose weight over time and increase your appetite yet help you be satisfied with lower food intake,� says

Winter. What’s not to like about that? When driving is a must, he has this advice: Combine trips by waiting to do all errands at once; telecommute at least once a week; carpool or use public transportation more often; and share errands with neighbors. 3. Plant “No matter how small your living space,� Winter writes, “you can still grow some of your own food, even if it’s just sprouts, herbs or a couple of tomato plants.� His alternative advice is to join one of the more than 18,000 community gardens now thriving in the United States and Canada. Growing food is part of the local and Slow Food movement that includes buying from community supported agriculture. 4. Share Sharing increases wealth. Much of the solution to planetary crisis involves organizing and sharing to significantly lower our ecological footprint while creating the community that we lost when we became consumers rather than interdependent people. “It’s good to have a home that’s self-sufficient,� Winter writes, “but even better to have an entire neighborhood that can cover its own basic needs. Your neighbors are likely to have knowledge, skills and tools that you don’t have. Through mutual sharing, you’re all strengthened.� 5. Localize Spend your money at local business and on local producers. “Locally owned businesses help the economy,� Winter reminds us. “Chain stores don’t.� Winter cites a study showing that out of every $100 spent at a chain store, only $43 remains in the community, whereas of every $100 spent at a local store, $68 remains in the community. “The people who own and work at local businesses are your friends, neighbors and fellow members of your community,� he reminds us. “They have the same stake in the community’s health as you do.� From Mick Winter and me: Happy New Year.

‘Incandescent bulbs are basically little heaters that also produce light. Only 10 percent of the energy they use produces light; the other 90 percent produces heat. This is a very serious waste of energy.’

2d_RPZTb P]S 1PR^] Food trends in 2009 tended toward sugar and salt, frosting and pork By Tori Masucci

C

his past year, America began once again finding comfort in comfort foods, reverting back to simple, homemade dishes that are inexpensive without sacrificing quality ingredients. “This year has marked a significant reentry into the macaroni and cheese economy,� pronounces Clark Wolf, president of the Clark Wolf Company restaurant consulting firm. “The difference now is that we want really good aged cheddar and fresh noodles. Life’s too hard to eat something out of a blue box.� Yet 2009 was also an indulgent and experimental year for cuisine. In the wake of a recession, when the economy squelched American dreams in every other way, the best we could do was to eat. And, moreover, eat whatever we pleased. This meant salads on pizza, Peruvian pisco sours, plenty of ginger and nougat, pink Champagne cupcakes and bacon on top of everything. Shedding some light on this year’s food trends, Wolf remarks, “I see it more as being from cupcakes

to bacon. Cupcakes are more of a fad than a trend, whereas bacon is a food group.� Soon after Sex and the City’s Carrie took that first bite at Magnolia Bakery in New York City back in 2000, the cupcake world swelled from mini to monumental as the next fashion-forward food. Cupcakeries have popped up around the country by the masses. Sugarcoated and cultlike yet oh-so-adorable with baby pink logos, these shops continue to win over customers with enticing flavors coined with cutesy names like Southern Belle Red Velvet. An expert on the “cupcake craze,� Andrea Ballus, owner of Sift Cupcakery in Cotati and Napa—with a new store due to open next month in Santa Rosa—believes that cupcakes hold a deeper significance for customers than mere chic. They are simply, Ballus says, “the happiest food on Earth.� Cheaper than a latte, these small treats are a convenient way to reward oneself without buying a whole cake. Unpeeling that thin, fanned wrapper yields a selfish delight that takes us back to childhood, when worries did not involve mortgages. “There is definitely a nostalgic part to

cupcakes, like eating Hostess or the cupcakes that your mom dropped off for your first-grade birthday, that people want to remember,� Ballus says. But 2009 was truly bacon’s big year. Foodies nationwide rediscovered its savory qualities, harking back to the primal nature of eating. The meat’s strong essence of smoke, alcohol, sugar, salt and fatty acid is tempting. “The thing is,� Wolf says, “foods like cupcakes really aren’t necessary, and most of them are a better idea than they are a food. Most of the satisfaction of a cupcake comes from when it’s going toward your mouth. But bacon is a food that a wonderful animal died for. Bacon rocks. It’s salt of the earth; it’s sustaining.� Bacon is also genuinely American, representing our affinity for pigs, grease and rebellion. The crackling, brown-sugar-cured fat has been known to lure vegetarians away from their ways. Its recent popularity is an insurgency against the wave of smoked salmon on mixed greens and careful calorie counting, but it is also a call to nostalgia. This past year, bartenders began to whip up old cocktail recipes from the pre-Prohibition era, with root beer and &) THE BOHEMIAN

sarsaparilla flavors as inspiration. Soon, bacon grease became involved, and before we knew it, hipsters were sucking greedily at bacon cocktails. “In the early part of 2008, people had too much money and they were making up clever diversions to sell more stuff,â€? Wolf says. This transferred over to 2009, when chefs continued experimenting with salty-sweet mixes and any confection that could pull off a shock factor. “I’ve actually gotten requests to make a bacon cupcake with some sort of caramel or maple bacon flavor combination,â€? Ballus laughs. “Guy Fieri told us we needed one. He said, ‘I don’t like sweets, but if you make a bacon cupcake, I would eat it.’â€? The dessert trend for bacon works because salty and sweet go together, a concept that doesn’t stray too far from Sunday-morning breakfasts, where bacon strips are surreptitiously dipped in a pool of maple syrup next to the pancakes, stacking forks with both sticky flapjacks and smoky pork. Voodoo Doughnut in Portland, Ore., made this combination famous when it created its bacon maple bar, covered in generous strips of meat. Soon, Dynamo Donut & Coffee in San Francisco followed suit with its maple glazed bacon apple, attributing the flavor to apples sautĂŠed in pig fat. Wolf is having none of it, saying that using bacon in these ways is like “gilding the lily and then trying to eat it. And,â€? he laughs, “a gilded lily is too crunchy. Bacon should be eaten as bacon, over or under farm eggs, in a BLT, in chunks in a macaroni and cheese, on the side of your plate next to your Sonoma goat cheese omelette.â€? In a down economy, this notion of “slow food fastâ€? has been a model theme for 2009’s food trends, especially in the North Bay. Bovolo restaurant in Healdsburg pioneered this concept of translating slower cooked cuisine into faster eating, standing by the idea that good food takes time to prepare. For instance, good bacon still needs to be drycured gradually and properly, but it becomes more accessible if customers can grab a package of it and move on with their busy lives. “In a weak economy, we bring back food traditions we got to try when we had money, or we dig back into our favorite things. For the North Bay, that means Italian, bacon, farm-fresh eggs and vegetables and all these things we have always loved and been good at,â€? Wolf says. And the food forecast for 2010? “I think we’re going to see much more in the way of sandwiches, because they are the perfect ‘slow food fast,’â€? he predicts. One such sandwich that was recently made popular in the States is the bacon butty (pronounced “buddyâ€?). Simply slices of crispy bacon on buttered bread, it has been an everyday favorite in Britain for as long as the two components existed. If the economy doesn’t improve within the next year, trends may show more people buddying up to those friendly slices of pork. After all, Wolf says, “bacon can be a poor man’s prosperity. If all you can afford is a cheap piece of bread and a stolen tomato with a cheap cut of bacon, how bad can it be?â€?

F48A3 144A lec Stefansky learned to make beer in his UC Santa Cruz dorm room, where he hid ďŹ ve-gallon batches from campus authorities and shared home-brewed pints among his roommates. It was a common enough way to begin.

A

But today, the 31-year-old is a professional brewer quickly ascending the ranks of West Coast weird-beer stardom. Since founding Uncommon Brewers in 2007, he has lived up to the company’s name. The Siamese Twin Ale brewed with KafďŹ r limes leaves and lemongrass has become a favorite of thousands, and far stranger brewings are now bubbling down the pipe. Most recently, Uncommon Brewers, operated by Stefansky and assistant Reed Vander Schaaf, released Rubidus Red Ale, a strong ale brewed with dried candy cap mushrooms. Stefansky, a recreational mushroom hunter, has amassed a ďŹ ve-year dried stash of the potent and expensive fungus, which smells strongly of maple syrup, and is steadily portioning the mushrooms into batches of the brew. A beer even queerer is about to go public. The Bacon Brown Ale, currently undergoing secondary fermentation, is as brown as it sounds—and it’s brewed with real bacon. On the calendar for release this spring is a barleywine aged with redwood branches. Stefansky says the wood’s tannins bridge the gap between the bitter hops and the sweet malt. This he discovered quite by accident at an Oakland A’s game in 2004, when he opened a home-brewed version of the beer, which runs almost 15 percent ABV, and found a volunteer redwood bud oating in the bottle. “It tasted great,â€? he recalls. “The beer’s avor had been missing something, and the redwood ďŹ lled the gap.â€? Stefansky counts among his inspirations DogďŹ sh Head Craft Ales in Delaware, renowned for its unusual beers and malt beverages, and he feels it’s time that more American brewers deviated from traditional European styles and developed their own. For now, Stefansky’s beers are all brewed to standard style guidelines, but the strange complements added to each beer toe the lines of conformity. While taste, aroma and mouthfeel may gain a brewer praise, success is best measured in numbers, so taste these: Uncommon Brewers made 194 barrels of beer in 2008 and 450 in 2009, but this year, Stefansky says he will generate 6,000 barrels of beer. Put another way, by April Uncommon Brewers will be making in one day what it previously took three months to produce. Is Stefansky brewing more than he can chew? He says no. “People want the beer, but I just can’t make enough.â€? Find Uncommon Brewers’ beer at Whole Foods, Mondo Beer Garden, and better beer shops throughout the North Bay.

H40A 8= A4E84F e’ve done it again: drunk up every day of a perfectly good year and tossed the empties into the maw of the great recycling bin that shows up, curbside—if we pay our bills. Let’s look back at a few of the past year’s standout sips and miscellany from Swirl ’n’ Spit’s travels.

W

January At the Zinfandel Advocates & Producers event, Gamba Vineyards’ 2007 Estate Russian River Valley Old Vine Zinfandel ($43) is alleged to have an aroma “like a raspberry beret campďŹ re.â€? Meanwhile, Sonoma Valley edges closer to the RhĂ´ne when Westwood Winery pours Tyrian-dark meaty fruit rubbed with black pepper and thyme—2005 Red Four, Annadel Estate ($23.50).

The Bazzaar Quality handmade art & goods made exclusively in Sonoma County!

February “That dude from Tool� Maynard James Keenan proves to Petaluma shoppers that he also rocks lip-smacking red wine made for long, candlelit conversations on cool, rainy nights; Graziano’s blue-tinted Vodka Lounge is a fun, bone-chilling fantasy of ice, fur and pure grain alcohol.

March Visitors to Frank Family Vineyards new tasting room get a glass of vintage bubbly as they walk in and pay no fee, ever.

April Kenwood’s Enkidu is named for ancient Sumeria’s ultimate fall guy and friend of the animals; 2006 Humbaba ($25) is a rich Petite Sirah-Syrah that runs with the animal crackers.

May Castello di Amorosa is a hugely ambitious, manicman’s monstrosity of hand-cut stone—and totally worth a visit. In Bodega Bay, only Mahoney Vineyards Carneros Vermentino ($21) can compete with the salty sea breeze.

June Bennett Lane Winery sponsors NASCAR at InďŹ neon Raceway, in a bid to transform “beer drinkers into wine drinkers one race at a time.â€?

July Surprise! Possibly the ďŹ nest local sparkling wine hails from sunny Glen Ellen. Robert Hunter, in no particular hurry, releases his 2000 Sonoma Valley Brut de Noirs ($45). August One slow, dog day in downtown Napa, Trahan Winery’s Sadie the dog gets a custom-built dog throne out of old barrel staves. Visitors are excited; they like the wines, too. September As harvest kicks in, Lutea’s Pinot Noir is nearly as irrepressibly fragrant and quaffable their 2008 Horse & Plow Grenache ($25). Meanwhile in West Marin, Pey-Marin’s 2007 “Punchdownâ€? Sonoma Coast Syrah ($25) is a luscious paper tiger that helps to soften our stance against the phrase, “food friendly.â€? October Woodenhead knock-knocks us out again with the mouth-watering half-baked raspberry, olallieberry and toasted cocoa-bean pie that is 2006 Martinelli Road Vineyard Zinfandel ($45). Newcomer Truett-Hurst swears that inky 2006 “Burning Manâ€? Petite Sirah ($33) has nothing to do with certain events in the desert, honest. November 24 Degrees ($18), a crystal-clear, Chardonnaybased, 48-proof spirit for mixing fancy cocktails, is vended from a ramshackle shed in rural Graton. December A Bohemian panel favors Korbel’s can’t-gowrong Brut California Champagne ($11.99) over local rivals. Corks are popped, barrels are topped, vines are lopped, and the whole darn thing gets ready to start over again.

?^_ @dXi How well do you know the Year In Music 2009? By Gabe Meline 1. Shortly after BeyoncĂŠ sang “At Lastâ€? for the Obamas on inauguration night, Etta James angrily complained during a Seattle concert that BeyoncĂŠ “had no business singing my song that I been singing foreverâ€? and that the pop star was “gonna get her ass whupped.â€? What did James go on to say about President Obama? a) “He gonna make up for it by dancing with me.â€? b) “Let’s see his damn birth certificate.â€? c) “He ain’t my president.â€? d) “He’s taking over the banks and the car industry.

C^_ C^a] CXg The North Bay stage’s best of 2009

By David Templeton

B

ince January of 2009, the question “How many shows do you see a year?â€? has been put to me almost as many times as I’ve seen shows. I have seen exactly 66 plays, musicals, operas or staged readings in 2009. That’s a heapin’ helpin’ of theater. As part of my regular theater-going ritual, I collect all of my ticket stubs throughout the year, saving them up for mid-December, when I carefully dump them from the old cigar box in which they are kept, and begin the arduous (but enlightening) task of choosing my top 10 favorite shows of the previous 12 months. If the New Year is anywhere close to 2009 in overall quality and creativity, then 2010 will be well worth looking forward to. Here are this reviewer’s personal favorite shows—my Top 10 Torn Tickets of 2009. 1. ‘My Name Is Asher Lev’ Chaim Potok’s celebrated novel came to life with stunning elegance and beauty in the Marin Theatre Company’s breathtaking play. With a brilliant script by Aaron Posner and sensitive direction by Hal Brooks, the story of a young Jewish artist’s development, for good and bad, avoided clichĂŠs at the same time it examined stereotypical views of the inner worlds of Hassidic Jews, grieving parents and rebellious artists. The acting—by the terrific trio of Danielle Levin, Patrick McNulty and, as Asher, Peter Stadlen—was outstanding, propelling the show on the raw force of their emotions, as the story moved from its ingeniously succinct opening to its stunner of a conclusion—lyrical, truthful and devastating. 2. ‘The Scene’ Therese Rebeck’s scathing comedy-drama about passive-aggressive New Yorkers on the fringes of the entertainment business opened the year at the Sixth Street

Playhouse, and nothing presented there all year matched the show’s outrageously nasty brilliance. With a fearless cast—Keith Baker, Dodds Delzell, Rose Roberts and Michelle Maxon—a rotating carousel set and spot-on direction by Elizabeth Craven, The Scene was exhilaratingly clever and, with its unexpected “Tortoise and the Hareâ€? climax, completely and utterly satisfying. 3. ‘La Bohème’ Cinnabar Theater’s spare, English-language production of Puccini’s enduring operatic masterpiece nailed the comic-to-tragic trajectory of the story, giving us a cast of great actors who were also excellent singers. The ending, with a band of starving artists mourning the excruciating death of the lovely Mimi (Leslie Sandefur), was so beautifully executed by director Elly Lichenstein and so well supported by musical director Nina Shuman that it still lingers in the mind. Like all good operas, and the occasional rock song, this La Bohème hurt so good. 4. ‘Almost, Maine’ John Cariani’s boldly uncynical comedy, presented in February at the Sonoma County Repertory Theater, was like a magical realism version of Love, American Style. In a tiny Northern town where metaphors about love come to literal life and people carry pieces of their broken hearts around in bags, four actors played several love-struck characters, literally falling in and out of love. Smartly directed by Sheri Lee Miller, this could have been cloying and queasy but was somehow the exact opposite—engaging, charming and delightfully life-affirming. 5. ‘The Book of Matthew’ One of the delights of the 2009 season was the world premiere of Gene Abravaya’s first play, The Book of Matthew. Presented by the since-dissolved Pacific Alliance Stage Company and directed by Hector Correa, the lovely and affecting semi-autobiographical

comedy marked Abravaya’s first play to be given a full staging, and signaled the emergence of a confident new playwriting voice. The production benefited from winning performances by the entire cast, from a sensitively outraged Tim Kniffin in the title role to a charming and deep-reaching Correa in a juicy supporting part. The play, which has since been staged by other companies as well, was reminiscent of the mid-career Neil Simon, and the fact that Abravaya is a well-known local actor and director makes this pleasant discovery all the sweeter. 6. ‘Lydia’ Octavio Solis’ mesmerizing soap opera about a brain-damaged girl observing the strengths and weaknesses of her Mexican-American family featured some of the strongest and boldest writing of the year, supported by a cast required to go to some very dark places. The ending, which still haunts me, pushed tamer definitions of love and family bonds into shocking and jawdroppingly beautiful new territory. 7. ‘On an Average Day’ and ‘Riff Raff ’ Narrow Way Stage Company’s bleak but captivating stagings of John Kolvenbach’s On an Average Day and Laurence Fishburne’s Riff Raff were not seen by very many people, which is a shame. Both urban grunge plays directed by Adam Palafox featured tight pacing and superintense performances. In the case of Day, Chris Ginesi and Nick Christianson gave their best performances ever as two dysfunctional brothers unraveling a family mystery amid literal and metaphorical garbage. Riff Raff featured six actors rotating through three roles. With Dan Saski a standout as a retired criminal thrown back together with a former friend, the play was uneven but absolutely unforgettable. 8. ‘Collected Stories’ Watching Cinnabar Theatre’s lovely and poetic staging of Donald Margulies’ 1996 drama was like watching a particularly beautiful piece of origami art slowly unfold to reveal the plain square of paper that was always there. With two strong performances by Carol Mayo Jenkins as a legendary teacher and writer of short fiction, and Anna Bullard as her too-eager, would-be-novelist student, the play, directed with a light, graceful hand by Elizabeth Craven, was as sly, funny and wise as it is was heartbreaking and real. 9. ‘Man of La Mancha’ I am not a fan of Lew Wasserman’s celebrated musical, but the Mountain Play’s staging of the story of Don Quixote, directed by the great James Dunn (who’s always good with unstageable plays), managed to not only avoid all of the usual missteps, it ended up being deeply affecting and irresistibly tear-jerking. While a few other song-and-dance shows this year made similarly strong impressions, Man of La Mancha stands as my favorite musical of the year. 10. ‘The Three Musketeers’ It was goofy, reductive and at times resembled a Mel Brooks spoof, but the Sonoma County Repertory Theatre’s take-no-prisoners staging of the Dumas classic, presented as part of the Sebastopol Shakespeare Festival, was like an old-fashioned Saturday matinee on steroids. From the witty wordplay and rousing fight choreography to an unexpectedly moving death scene, a pair of hiss-worthy villains (thank you Bronwen Shears and Eric Burke), this confident, energetic, adventure featured a strong all-star cast doing exceptional larger-than-life work, and strong, tonguein-cheek direction by Ken Sonkin. The Three Musketeers might not have been one of the most important plays of the year, but it was definitely one of the most entertaining.

Animation and big questions ruled 2009’s screen By Richard von Busack

<

ad Men was more exciting than two-thirds of the movies released this year. This season-long immersion into the world of half a century ago proved breathtakingly strange even to those who were children then. With Jon Hamm’s astonishing Don Draper as a traumatized executive ready to chew his leg off rather than get caught in familial snares, Mad Men made Up in the Air look fairly soft. Yet George Clooney and Vera Farmiga’s performances in Up in the Air exemplify the highest kind of screen acting—they’re magic together—and that may be all that matters. Bearing almost everything Cary Grant had, Clooney displays far more eclectic tastes in material; his charm and dissatisfaction took Fantastic Mr. Fox out of the realm of kids’ films into a seriocomic midlife crisis. But Up in the Air has led reviewers to coin the word “fauxmey,� meaning “faux� and “homey.� Do the fauxmey Midwestern wedding scenes and the robust product placement for American Airlines and Hertz count as a critique of the System? Somehow, those cool airport concourses eclipse the passages about what the aviation industry does to its pilots, as seen in Michael Moore’s Capitalism: A Love Story. Frank Rich of The New York Times is interested that Up in the Air has as its “primal� background the aftereffects of a Wall Street culture that’s turning the United States into a boneyard. His point is unarguable. The question that keeps me from wholeheartedly embracing this movie is whether

Clooney’s Ryan Bingham have been a better person if he had a family to come home to after a day of cutting throats to boost stocks. Not all was escapism, though, in the real film story of 2009. This year finally showed that animation would never again be regarded as a novelty or a subset of cinema. From the blue motion-captured aliens of Avatar to the belle dame of Coraline, 2009 was to animation what 1939 was to studio filmmaking. I recently interviewed Mark Henn, a supervising animator on The Princess and the Frog, another ornament of the year in animation. Rather naturally, Henn credited this trove to the Disney organization. “There were, what, 30 animated films this year?� he asked. “But before the revival or renaissance of Disney in the 1980s, there had been just two or three animated movies a year. We’re now seeing the fruits of the efforts we had during that ’80s renaissance period.� It’s a theory. There’s seemingly very little Disney in Coraline, although director Henry Selick worked at Disney. Fantastic Mr. Fox and the sublime Town Called Panic, still unreleased, reflect Britain’s Wallace and Gromit more than the Mouse. Whether the technological breakthrough is Disney’s A Christmas Carol or Avatar, we witnessed an epochal banquet for children and adults alike. Maybe the key is that these animated films are trying to appeal to everyone instead of a limited, demographically select audience. I despair when people say Up was cute. What they meant, I hope, was “acute.� Yes, it has balloons and talking dogs and we can see the limits of the Pixar/Disney’s vision in

the final imagining of Oakland’s Piedmont district. But Up, rather than Up in the Air, was the best film of 2009. It demonstrates a more wrenching understanding of the problem of staying and going. Its subject is the burden of dreams, and it partakes of blood, gunfire and the uncanny. The story of a man strapped to a haunted house—is that your idea of cute? Old Carl, the true fanatic, redoubles his aims as he loses his concept of what he’s trying to preserve. Is it his memories or the wooden hulk that contains them? It’s not the candy colors that make the movie a classic but rather the serious cinematic storytelling during the already famous first five to 10 minutes. Careful writing matches two old men in their mutual obsessions, and (very unusual in a film Disney had anything to do with) it suggests that it is a terrible fate to cling to a past. This is a hard lesson for animators, who are almost all terrible nostaglics. A close second to Up was Coraline, a ravishing fairy tale told with Oregon terroir and Grimm Brothers terror; here is a more elegant tale of the dangers of coming of age than Twilight: New Moon’s spot-thatmetaphor game of deflowering equals vampirization. The Canadian heavy metal doc Anvil! The Story of Anvil shows that even in the age when everyone documents everyone else, it’s still possible to trust a director. Critics have remarked of The Hurt Locker that it is amazing a woman, Kathryn Bigelow, made such a tough movie. Could a man have directed Agnès Varda’s gentle yet incisive The Beaches of Agnès? Here’s proof that selfdocumentation doesn’t have to be boring; a mirror turned to an artist can turn out to reflect a good portion of the world. And what this year was more triumphant that the display of the inner youth of an elderly lady? A Serious Man’s fear and trembling is the opposite. The fable of a confused hero (Michael Stuhlbarg) caught between human malice and divine silence is essential viewing in a year when possibly more nonsense was talked about God and what He wants than in perhaps any other year in the history of the world. (You could judge this nonstatistic on a basis of population alone— nearly 7 billion, and the internet gives them quite a megaphone.) The Informant!’s similar Midwestern blight and its study of trust and duplicity also constitute a kind of corporate critique—more Sinclair Lewis than Billy Wilder. Sin Nombre is as dreamy as a film could be, dealing with the unspeakably sordid subject matter of drug gangs. Cary Fukunaga’s post–City of Gold filmmaking represents as accomplished a debut as we have enjoyed in years. And The Maid’s ride-along with a domestic servant is a work of great intimacy and terror, and of unexpected mercy. As for the rest of the year: I don’t know if I have energy enough left to slap it goodbye. On the non-blockbuster, flank we endured a coterie of hipster coming-of-age movies that make one wonder if a certain segment of society is ever going to grow up—Away We Go, Gigantic, Where the Wild Things Are. If (500) Days of Summer gets the Oscar for best original script, the Academy will be rewarding screenwriters who couldn’t come up with a funnier porn movie title than Sweet and Shower. It’s not a precedent we want to set. THE BOHEMIAN

There’s a multitude of reasons to head out to the Hopmonk Tavern on New Year’s Eve—the Mystic Beat Lounge showcase, live paintings, fire dancers, attendees under the age of 30—but the main attraction is a hip-hop duo who’ll be keeping the party live well into 2010. DJ Zeph & Azeem are two veterans of the San Francisco underground who assimilate jazz textures and sociorevolutionary themes into their work to create a definitively Bay Area sound. Their latest album, Rise Up, stands as a beat-scattered salve to those still scarred by hyphy’s incessant posturing. With one foot in the classic ’90s hip-hop sound and performing will a full live band, they’re perfect for rocking in the New Year. They appear with opener Romanowski, whose keynote track “Strudel Strut� helped bring early-decade turntablism out of its technical rut and into a more rhythm-as-composition era, on Thursday, Dec. 31, at the Hopmonk Tavern. 230 Petaluma Ave., Sebastopol. 8pm. $20–$30. 707.829.7300.

You know you wanna see those off-the-rack Ann Taylor dresses crinkling back and forth to that funky, bluesy sound on New Year’s Eve, and if you’re not relying on Tommy Castro’s show at the Mystic Theater in Petaluma for the task, then Curt Campbell is the guy to supply. Memorably billed as the “only Navy SEAL to come out of Marin,� Campbell plays a mean harmonica and sings a meaner growl. “Me and Jim Beam,� “Cowboy Boots & 501’s,� “SEAL House Rockin’�—these are the tunes to fill a dancef loor and further lubricate the Champagne-sodden crowd. With a backing band full of all-star sidemen, a cracker jack horn section and a madman’s stage presence, Campbell will rock the house. Make sure to wear your red dress for a special shout-out during the uptempo blues hammer of “Train� when Campbell plays with his band on Thursday, Dec. 31, at the Mill Valley Masonic. 19 Corte Madera Ave., Mill Valley. 9:30pm. $35–$45. 415.388.2550.

If you’re under the age of 25, chances are your sole knowledge of Marvin Hamlisch comes from the movie Role Models, in which perpetual adolescent Christopher Mintz-Plasse exasperates over constant comparisons to the mythic unknown celebrity. But to those who grew up on The Sting, The Way We Were, A Chorus Line and Ordinary People, Hamlisch is. . . well, OK, he’s still kind of a behind-the-scenes guy. But the pianist and composer is a huge musical legend on Broadway and in Hollywood—he’s the only person in history to win an Emmy, a Grammy, an Oscar, a Tony, a Golden Globe and a Pulitzer—and his New Year’s Eve show in Napa is bound to be a delight for theatergoers and film buffs. With Broadway singers Gary Mauer and Anne Runolfsson on the mic, Hamlisch on the keys, and Domaine Carneros in the glass, it’s a New Year’s Eve for the ages on Thursday, Dec. 31, at the Napa Valley Opera House. 8:30pm. Performance only, $95; performance and afterparty, $165. 707.226.7372.

THE BOHEMIAN

t’s just barely possible to get through a full day of classic rock radio without hearing one of the iconic songs—“Like a Rolling Stone,� “You Can’t Always Get What You Want,� “Sweet Home Alabama,� “I Can’t Quit Her,� among others—that Al Kooper had a hand in creating, as a songwriter, keyboard player, arranger, producer and/or bandleader. Perhaps best known for organizing and playing on the 1968 Super Session LP with Mike Bloomfield and Stephen Stills (an early bid to apply the jazz jam-session ethic to rock and roll), Kooper rose to prominence as a member of the Blues Project and went on to form Blood, Sweat and Tears, only to depart before the band broke through to massive success. Add to those a history of session work with a who’s who of musical greats (the Stones, Dylan, the Who, B. B. King, Jimi Hendrix, Miles

Davis) and you have to wonder, why isn’t this guy a household name? Sometimes he wonders, too. Just finding dates to play—such as the pair of solo appearances that bring him to San Francisco and Fairfax next week—is a challenge. “I’d like to play a lot more, but it’s hard to do it,� the 65-year-old Kooper grumbles affably by phone from his Bostonarea home. “I change booking agents like Kleenex, but it just doesn’t work.� Asked to choose a favorite from his own considerable compositional output, Kooper quickly settles on “I Love You More Than You’ll Ever Know,� a soulful track from the debut Blood, Sweat and Tears album Child Is Father to the Man. “It reached a lot of people,� he explains. “I think more people have recorded that than any other song I wrote. It was really spearheaded by Donny Hathaway’s recording, and then a lot of people basically imitated his version of it. I just got a video someone sent me of Stevie Wonder singing it, which was a big thrill for me.� Although Kooper was the featured vocalist for many of the Blues Project sides and most of Child Is Father to the Man, as well as his numerous solo recordings, he is quick to acknowledge that singing “was really my weakest card. The one thing that sort of got me through was I always believed in what I sang, and I always concentrated on that believability. There are a lot of really good singers who don’t do that. So I think people believed what I sang, and that helped me get through the fact that I didn’t sing it very well.� Kooper has detailed his personal odyssey through rock history in the delightfully plainspoken (and recently updated) memoir, Backstage Passes & Backstabbing Bastards, which chronicles his early days peddling songs to Gene Pitney through the many previously cited highlights to his most recent solo records, Black Coffee (2005) and White Chocolate (2008), both of which display his newfound love of the mandolin, often used as a textual substitute for acoustic guitars. And even if he’s not playing as much as he’d like, Kooper is definitely listening. “Now I think I know more about current music than I’ve ever known,� he says, hastening to exclude modern country music, rap, hip-hop and thrash metal. A scan of the “Fifty Faves of 2009� posted on his website finds nods to Jesse Winchester and Rickie Lee Jones, along with enthusiastic shout-outs to far less familiar names such as Kristina Train, Other Lives, Worlds Collide and the Honeydogs. But Kooper is also disdainful of the current “glut of people who call themselves musicians� and the industry machine that encourages them. “Each generation, the music business concocts a new kind of music that’s geared to infuriate the parents of the last generation,� he philosophizes. “Hip-hop and rap—it’s wasted on me. They succeeded quite well in giving this generation a music that would infuriate the older generation.� Still, he says, “History has shown us that it always does come back to three-chord rock and roll. They just call it something different each time.� Al Kooper plays on Wednesday, Jan. 6, at the 19 Broadway Niteclub. 19 Broadway, Fairfax. 8pm. $25. 415.459.1091.

Twenty years later, Psychefunkapus return op music isn’t always exactly aligned with major social upheaval. Here we are, at the end of 2009, with bailouts, unemployment, healthcare battles, wingnut dissent, withered hopes and even more withered bank balances, and our pop music isn’t the fiery, angry alternative rock that defined the not-very-oppressive Clinton era. It’s Taylor Swift and the cast of Glee. The mood of the country is such that escapism is more attractive than reality in music. We’d rather hear about Shawty getting low—not our spirits. This is not new. Even 20 years ago, in 1989, the headlines were dominated by Tiananmen Square, the Exxon Valdez oil spill, Operation Rescue, the “War on Drugs,â€? the PMRC, Ayatollah Khomeini and the Eastern Bloc. What was playing on the radio during the turbulence? New Kids on the Block, Milli Vanilli, Paula Abdul and “Batdance.â€? Depeche Mode may have asked for a personal Jesus, but the rest of the country cruised in their cars—as big as a whale—in neon hypercolor T-shirts, stonewashed jeans and ratted hair. The Bay Area wasn’t immune to this imbalance in 1989. For every punk band screaming about lingering Reaganomics, there were at least ďŹ ve or six “funkâ€? bands—usually leftover metal bands—with a slapping bass player, a disco drummer and a shirtless lead vocalist singing and rapping, usually in wacky metaphors, about sex. If you remember any of these bands, with names like Fungo Mungo, BlĂźchunks, Smokin’ Rhythm Prawns and the Limbomaniacs, then you surely remember the Bay Area’s great white hope for funk. Psychefunkapus seemed to have it made: a major-label deal with Atlantic Records, MTV videos, hordes of blonde girls in the front row. And then, faster than you can say “Smells Like Teen Spirit,â€? they were forgotten ashes from a scene that imploded under the crushing weight of Seattle. Until now. With a completely sold-out show with the reunited Limbomaniacs and Fungo Mungo at Slim’s in San Francisco on Jan. 2, the groovalicious band— originally formed in San Geronimo—plays a warmup gig on New Year’s Day in Point Reyes to provide cautious diversion and morphine-like nostalgia for the survivors of 1989. Throw on those Vaurnets and mosh it up to “SurďŹ n’ on Jupiterâ€? all over again with Psychefunkapus on Friday, Jan 1, at the Dance Palace. 503 B St., Pt. Reyes Station. 8pm. $20. 909.993.7227.
