Middle Ground Pedestrians in Santa Cruz have claimed a victory. A hotly contested alleyway linking Mission Plaza with the High Street cul-desac will remain open to foot and bike traffic between the hours of at least 6am and 10pm. The court-arbitrated compromise marks the end of three-year struggle with absentee property owner 8=6< ;/6=<G on one side and neighbors supported by bike/pedestrian group People Power on the other. The alley is less than a quarter mile long, but it’s been the site of serious neighborhood drama. In 2007, citing theft to his rentals adjoining the walkway, Mahony bought the path and its property rights from Holy Cross Catholic Church and immediately boarded it up against public access. Residents soon called for help from nonmotorized transit advocates >3=>:3 >=E3@. Neighbors and activists tore down fences constructed at the entrance and exit after no more than a few days, arguing that after at least 80 years of use the alley should be considered a public easement. Attorney 5/@G @323<0/163@ was persuaded to work on the neighbors’ behalf for a discounted fee. The barriers were called a public nuisance; Redenbacher and People Power president ;71/6 >=A<3@ held that this argument gave the public a legal right to remove them. “We knew that we had a good case, and the law was on our side,� says Posner, citing a law that protects paths in use before 1975. “We were in no hurry.� Landlord John Mahoney was unable to be reached for comment. “All of us who lived there had never experienced any problems with [the walkway],� says 8C2G H735:3@, who led the initial neighborhood movement. “It’s part of the historical heart of the town, where the nuns walked on the way to the convent at the church.� Posner says having the alley open makes walking an easier choice, encouraging community building and alleviating traffic congestion at nearby Holy Cross Elementary School. —Kate Jacobson

Fertilizer Neutralizer If a group of farmers test the runoff in their fields for nitrates but the results are confidential, has the public good been served? This was one of the questions underlying debate at the July 8 meeting of the 13<B@/: 1=/AB @357=</: E/B3@ ?C/:7BG 1=<B@=: 0=/@2 in Watsonville. At issue is a proposed law that would require all growers from Santa Cruz to Santa Barbara to monitor the runoff from their fields for chemical contamination that would make water harmful for drinking, swimming and other human activities. The issue of whether those tests should be confidential was a flashpoint. The 1/:74=@<7/ 4/@; 0C@3/C commended a current waiver that supports “confidential and voluntary’’ water

quality testing, which allows several growers to test and report cooperatively, or in groups, rather than individually. “Confidentiality is a very positive incentive because you realize the possibility to make improvements without a hammer over your head,� said one farmer. Another grower with both organic and conventional acreage said confidential testing had enabled him to comply without fear of repercussions.

‘Our highest priority is those impacts to human health. We have an increasingly urgent problem that needs to be addressed.’ But activists are leery of extending that proposal in the new law. AB3D3 A67;39 of ;=<B3@3G 1=/AB933>3@ suggested possible compromises that could be added to the draft to appease farmers, saying that perhaps their tests could remain confidential for the first two years. He also proposed a tiered approach that would allow those dischargers not in “hot spots� to continue to test cooperatively. But he remained opposed to allowing all growers to test cooperatively, saying they must be held responsible. “The most profitable land is the most impaired,� he said. Among those who came to voice their support for the new rule were residents of San Jerardo, a community outside Salinas that has suffered serious health problems from drinking contaminated water. Human health carried the most weight in the board’s considerations. “Our highest priority is those impacts to human health. Those require short-term action,� said Water Board member ;=<71/ 6C<B3@ in her closing remarks. “We have an increasingly urgent problem that needs to be addressed. We can no longer marginalize these issues.� The staff closed by pointing out that timber, landfills and wastewater treatment plants adhere to strict regulations, while agriculture hasn’t been held to the same standards. “It is our aim to bring agriculture into similar compliance as those dischargers with a high degree of water quality impact,� said Water Board staff member :7A/ ;11/7<. —Maria Grusauskas

So when Kelso heard the news about an explosion aboard a drilling rig working on a BP well one mile below the surface of the Gulf of Mexico, he felt a flash of urgency and outrage that continues to this day. “Here the oil spill continues with no end in sight,â€? he says. “How can it be 20 years later and we still have not made very much progress in spill technology— especially when we are choosing much higher risk technologies? The gap between gains that have been made in extracting oil and the capacity we have for responding is huge.â€?

T

HE BP gusher is the largest oil spill in American history; President Obama has called it the

worst environmental disaster the county has ever faced. Flying over the Gulf in late April, Kelso saw patches of thick oil. It’s a deep rust, he says—not black— sitting on the surface. At the edges of the slick it breaks off into smaller streamers and glossy pools. The clean water next to it is stunningly blue and beautiful. Almost two months after that first view, on June 23, Kelso looked down on the spill again, this time from airspace over the Florida Panhandle, about 300 miles east. “The same kind of pattern: thick bands but not continuous wall-to-wall,â€? he recalls. He walked the beaches with Florida Gov. Charlie Crist, the white powdery sand laced with black oil. Since April, Kelso has flown to the Gulf four times—right now he’s ¨ %

‘When the BP Deepwater Horizon disaster happened, it was a bitter confirmation that the Minerals Management Service was not taking these risks seriously—and the consequences were huge.’ —DENNY KELSO “After Exxon Valdez, I had worked on a variety of things, including successfully prevailing in lawsuits against the Department of the Interior—where the Minerals Management Service lives— because of the rubber-stamp decisions that the Minerals Management Service had been making,� Kelso says. The Minerals Management Service, the federal agency charged with regulating offshore drilling, repeatedly refused to act on advice from its experts on ways to minimize the risk of failed oil rig blowout preventers, according to a New York Times investigation. It also concluded that deepwater oil drilling in the Gulf posed no significant risk to wildlife. “So when the BP Deepwater Horizon disaster happened, it was a bitter confirmation that the Minerals

Management Service was not taking these risks seriously—and the consequences were huge,� Kelso says. He’s also been reminded that basic precautionary measures have been ignored to a shocking degree. In order to ship oil from the Valdez Marine Terminal, Alaskan law required Exxon to formulate an oil spill “contingency plan.� Kelso approved the plan and says it provided a thorough response for specific scenarios, including detailed maps and input from fishermen and other locals. During the actual spill, Exxon didn’t follow the plan. But at least there was one. “Compare this to the BP Deepwater case,� Kelso says. “There was no spill response plan.�

S

OON after the oil spill, the Ocean Conservancy deployed teams of scientists and other experts to the Gulf (it has regional offices in Austin and St. Petersburg) and to Washington. Their task: focusing on the three Rs: relief, restoration and reform. It’s bad—the Gulf is home to half of the wetlands in the continental United States, 40 percent of which are in Louisiana alone. “They’re remarkably productive,â€? Kelso says. “For example, 97 percent by weight of the commercially valuable fish and shell fish species come from the Louisiana wetlands for that state. So you have to take that pretty seriously.â€? The problem continues as oil—and marine species—move down the water columns. Kelso explains that some organisms that start life in the marshes move offshore and into different water levels corresponding with their life stage. “Some have a survival strategy that allows them to go to deep water during the daytime when there’s light and they’re more vulnerable to predators, and then they come up at night when it’s dark to feed,â€? he says. “So depending on where the oil is, if there’s an oil cloud, they may be traveling through it.â€? As Kelso witnessed in Alaska and now in the Gulf states, the oil spill’s a human tragedy, too. Eleven workers lost their lives, and countless others—fishermen, restaurateurs, charter captains, innkeepers—have seen their source of income thrown into uncertainty. “It is really hard for the affected people to look beyond the immediate crisis,â€? he says. “They want the oil out of the water. Nothing short of that is going to feel good. But what has to happen now—right now—is the Natural Resources Damage Assessment has to be ¨ '

(Read the Ocean Conservancy’s June 3 letter to the Department of the Interior and the Department of Commerce about the NRDA at http://news.santacruz.com). It also takes into account the loss of tourism, fishing and other industries that depend on the ecosystem to determine BP’s liability. “The damage assessment is the driver,� Kelso says. “If you don’t have that, you don’t have much. The restoration flows from that, and restoration is multiyear.

But if you don’t know what’s broken, you can’t fix it.� And then there’s the matter of reforming the laws that led to the oil rig explosion in the first place. To that end, Kelso and other Ocean Conservancy staff recently testified before the U.S. House of Representatives Committee on Natural Resources (read the full testimony online, also at http://news .santacruz.com). “If we do not take advantage of the learning from this,� he says, “then shame on us as a society. People have died. People’s livelihoods are in grave danger. We need to understand what policies and legislation must change so this doesn’t happen again.� 0

AC@4 17BG AB=@G HAS ANYONE invented a word for the particular pleasure of reading a book set in a place you know and love? Whatever that word would be (geolexophilia? Ourtownism?), Local Tribes, the first novel by Santa Cruz poet and historian Thomas Hickenbottom, is a deeply satisfying source of it. Scenes set at Mitchell’s Cove, at the Boardwalk and on the wharf are instantly recognizable to any local contemporary reader, but they have the faded, sun-bleached quality of old home movies or Polaroids. With skillful pacing and liberal use of telling details, Hickenbottom reminds us constantly that Santa Cruz in 1966 was a sleepy working-class town populated by fishermen and their countrified, rowdy, surf-obsessed offspring—a world away from the increasingly unaffordable outpost of liberalism it’s since become. At the center of the tale is Marco, a surfer kid on the cusp of adulthood, torn apart by his father’s death, raging hormones and the threat of conscription to fight in Vietnam. The only thing clear to this sensitive and ravaged soul is that the sea is his refuge and surfing his salvation. As he grapples with choices he feels ill prepared to make, the ocean is a reassuring constant. This book will resonate especially deeply for surfers and the surf-curious. Hickenbottom, who last summer published a book of local history titled Surfing in Santa Cruz, drops fascinating tidbits about surf history into the narrative. The bitter cold of the pre-wetsuit days, the huge boards, the arduous retrieval of said boards from the shallows in the absence of leashes, all make for seriously fun reading, while Marco’s story serves as an unusually authentic glimpse into the mind and heart of youth. (Traci Hukill)

THOMAS HICKENBOTTOM reads from and signs copies of ‘Local Tribes’ Monday, July 19, at 7:30pm. Free. Capitola Book CafĂŠ, 1475 41st Ave, Capitola. 831.462.4415.

Independence Day Tilda Swinton’s a stunner in ‘I Am Love’ 0G @716/@2 D=< 0CA/19

T

Wine shop 1/@@G7<5 / B=@16 Tilda Swinton falls for chef Edoardo Gabbrilini in ‘I Am Love.’

later, with the old man dead and Tancredi completely consumed by the family business in London. His wife, Emma (Swinton), always solitary, is now more alone than usual amid the heavy stones and dismal paintings of the villa. Adding keenness to Emma’s loneliness is the discovery of the secret love life of her grown daughter (Alba Rohrwacher). But Emma is distracted by a new character: a chef who caters the family’s formal banquets. Antonio (Edoardo Gabbrilini) is a handsome devil with a tattooed bracelet. Unfortunately, this chef is her son Edo’s new best friend. Guadagnino touches upon the best novels about adultery: the name Emma, as in Bovary, is certainly significant. There’s a most explicit love scene in the mountains near San Remo that’ll be too fulsome for some, but which is as pure a visualization of

Lady Chatterley’s Lover as we’ll see: f lowers, fruit and drowsy insects surround Antonio and Emma as they make love in the grass. I Am Love is a rich movie—a banquet, certainly—and the richness of it may seem off-putting; in these times, there’s so much financial suffering that many may be impatient with the problems of a luxuriously clad woman of leisure. But this classic drama of adultery–spare in plot, fascinating in design–is a revenge of the world of art on the world of property. And we haven’t seen one this well framed in a long time.

I AM LOVE (R; 120 min., with subtitles), directed by Luca Guadagnino and starring Tilda Swinton, Pippo Delbono and Edoardo Gabbrilini, opens Friday.

HE BEAUTY of I Am Love is perplexing; it’s as bewildering as the beauty of its star, the lean Scottish redhead Tilda Swinton. Like Julianne Moore, Swinton is a congenitally brave actress who has matured into a performer who is almost inhumanly free of selfconsciousness. Swinton, now nearing 50, is a vision: clear-eyed, short-haired and immaculately dressed for this expensive romance. Director Luca Guadagnino begins with arresting images of Milan in winter: locked tight under a foot of snow, the place is a city of fortresses suffused with icy mist. As John Adams’ tense music from Nixon in China simmers away, we survey a villa of almost Soviet brutality: the home of the Recchis, a family that made its millions in the textile trade. The family is gathering for the big annual event, the birthday celebration of the patriarch. The pretentious old man is played by the legendary Gabriel Ferzetti, and his somewhat younger wife is Marisa Berenson, glazed as pottery and stretched with cosmetic surgery. Old Eduoardo plans to retire and pass on the business to the next generation. The heir presumptive—the handsome and kind grandson Edo (Flavio Parenti)—is bypassed for reasons only the Recchis would understand. He lost a race of some sort, in which it was a family tradition to compete and win. It’s enough of a dishonor that they tease him about it throughout the dinner. But the decision is made; the direction of the company is given to Edo’s father, Tancredi, played by Pippo Delbono, a sinister party who looks like a hybrid of Richard Nixon and J. Edgar Hoover. The story resumes a few months

John and Molly are perfect for each other, but one thing stands between them: Molly’s jealous son Cyrus, who still lives with her. A maladjusted young man, Cyrus is bent on engaging John in an extremely awkward battle over Molly. Starring Jonah Hill, Marisa Tomei and John C. Riley. 23A>71/0:3 ;3

(PG; 94 min.) Even the second tier of animated filmmaking is fairly advanced, and Despicable Me’s brisk and intelligent rephrase of the evil genius plot makes up for several cul de sacs. The bald, heavyeyebrowed and Akim Tamiroff–accented Gru (voiced by Steve Carell) is a mad scientist working on his latest plot. If he can steal a shrink-ray just being developed, the Bank of Evil will give him a loan to finance his magnum opus: the theft of the moon itself. But Vector, an unsightly nerd bearing a notable resemblance to Bill Gates, swipes the ray from Gru. The scheme to retrieve it depends on a trio of forlorn, cookieselling orphans who have been haunting his front door. The action may be silly, but the directors take it seriously. The 3-D is mostly a gimmick, though there’s one startling moment of a rocket’s needle nose heading for the

Lenny Feder (Sandler) and his gang— Eric (Kevin James), Marcus (David Spade), Rob (Rob Schneider), plus Kurt (Chris Rock)— reunite when their childhood basketball coach (Blake Clark) passes away. Afterward, the five pals and their families stay together over the Fourth of July weekend at a lake house. Why are they there? To hang out for about 100 minutes of running time. Seriously, nothing of significant note happens. Juggling five stars in one film leads to too many underdeveloped characters. Only Sandler’s Lenny, a wealthy Hollywood agent, gets some of his due. Great comedians such as Rock are underutilized and not in their element. (SR) 8=/< @7D3@A( / >7313 =4 E=@9

min.) Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart keep things looser than usual. The date of Bella’s coming vampirical transformation is nigh, but it’s delayed by “newborns� created by the vengeful Victoria (Bryce Dallas Howard). Victoria’s mission is to attack the peaceful boring Cullen clan. As Bella is unaccountably beloved by both Edward and Jacob, an uneasy pact is formed of vamps and lycanthropes. David Slade proves that the mark of a former music-video director is that the movie will be sustainable for three or four minutes at a time. Still the climactic battle of good vs. evil looks like a pick-up football game in which the players are

suddenly devoured by the mascots. There is a slight improvement this time around because of the humor and action. Still, Meyer’s ransacking of a dozen Gothic novels gives one the depressing feeling of driving by a housing tract named “Wuthering Heights.â€? (RvB) E7<B3@¸A 0=<3

(R; 100 min.) The melodrama-free indie movie Winter’s Bone is like a Little Red Riding Hood story in which there’s nothing but wolves. In the outlaw culture of the Ozarks sprawling clans evade the law and deal out their own kind of justice. Adapted from Daniel Woodrell’s novel, Debra Granik’s spare, gripping film concerns 17-year-old Ree Dolly (a thoroughly believable Jennifer Lawrence) and her search for a father who has vanished. Winter’s Bone stays mysterious, even as it strays close to documentary. Lawrence’s own fierceness gives this survival story the kind of immediacy that the summer’s action movies can only grope at.

Astrology Free Will

By Rob Brezsny

For the week of July 14 /@73A (March 21–April 19): “Thou shalt not kill� is a crucial rule for you to follow, and not just in the literal sense. According to my reading of the astrological omens, you should also be extra vigilant as you avoid more metaphorical kinds of destruction. Please be careful not to unleash ill-chosen words that would crush someone’s spirit (including your own). Don’t douse newly kindled fires, don’t burn recently built bridges and don’t deprive fresh sprouts of the light they need to keep growing. To put this all in a more positive frame: It’s time for you to engage in a reverent and boisterous celebration of life, nurturing and fostering and stimulating everywhere you go. B/C@CA (April 20–May 20): The baseball game was over. TV announcer Mike Krukow was describing the “ugly victory� that the San Francisco Giants had just achieved. The team’s efforts were sloppy and chaotic, he said, and yet the win counted just as much as a more elegant triumph. He ended with a f lourish: “No one wants to hear about the labor pains; they just want to see the baby.� That’s my message to you this week, Taurus. All that matters is that you get the job done. It doesn’t matter whether you look good doing it. 53;7<7 (May 21–June 20): Here’s the really good news: CIA director Leon Panetta says there are fewer than 100 Al Qaeda combatants in Afghanistan. Here’s the utterly confusing news: The U.S has over 94,000 highly trained human beings in Afghanistan whose express purpose is to destroy Al Qaeda. I bring this up as a prod to get you to question your own allotment of martial force, Gemini. You definitely need to make sure you have a lavish reserve of fighting spirit primed to serve your highest goals. Just make sure, please, that it’s pointed in the right direction.

1/<13@ (June 21–July 22): “Give us this day our daily hunger,â€? prayed French philosopher Gaston Bachelard. It was his personal variation on the “Give us this day our daily breadâ€? line from the Lord’s Prayer. I suggest you use his formulation as your own in the coming week, Cancerian. It’s the high season for your holy desires: a time when your mental and physical health will thrive as you tune in to and express your strongest, most righteous longings. :3= (July 23–Aug. 22): In a recent horoscope, I wrote about Christopher Owens, lead singer of the band Girls, and how he wore pajama bottoms during a show he did in San Francisco. A reader named Eric was disgusted by this, seeing it as evidence that Owens is a self-indulgent hipster. “Just another spoiled trustfund kid,â€? he said in his email, “whose excessively privileged life has given him the delusion that he’s uninhibited.â€? With a little research, Eric would have found the truth: Owens was raised in an abusive religious cult by a single mother who worked as a prostitute to earn a meager living. I bring this to your attention in hopes it will inspire you to avoid making any assumptions about anyone. More than ever before, it’s crucial that you bring a beginner’s mind to your evaluations of other human beings. D7@5= (Aug. 23–Sept. 22): I want to see your willpower surge and throb and carry you to a ringing triumph in the next two weeks, Virgo. I hope to be cheering you on as you complete a plucky effort to overcome some long-standing obstacle . . . as you put the finishing touches on an epic struggle to defeat a seemingly intractable foe . . . as you rise up with a herculean f lourish and put the stamp of your uniqueness on a success that will last a long time. :70@/ (Sept. 23–Oct. 22): The Italian word terribilitĂ was originally used by art critics to describe the sculptures and paintings of Michelangelo. According to various dictionaries, it refers to “a sense of awe-inspiring grandeur,â€? “the sublime mixed with amazement,â€? or “an astonishing creation that provokes reverent humility.â€? In my astrological opinion, terribilitĂ is a prerequisite for the next chapter of your life story. You need be f labbergasted by stunning beauty. Where can you go to get it? A natural wonder might do the trick, or some exalted architecture, or the biography of a superb human being, or works of art or music that make you sob with cathartic joy. For extra credit, put yourself in the path of all the above.

A1=@>7= (Oct. 23–Nov. 21): In a favorable review of Badger Mountain Riesling wine, Winelibrary. com said, “The sweet succulent aromas of bosc

pears are woven with lilacs and just a hint of petrol.â€? Meanwhile, Allure magazine named SĂŠcrĂŠtions Magnifique as one of the top five sexiest perfumes in the world, even though its fragrance is like “f loral bilge.â€? Petrol? Bilge? Both commentaries seem to suggest that greatness may contain a taint—or even that the very nature of greatness may require it to have a trace of something offensive. I’m guessing that’ll be a theme for you in the coming week.

A/57BB/@7CA (Nov. 22–Dec. 21): During the grace period you’re currently enjoying, you have a talent for tuning in to the raw potential of whatever situation is right in front of you; you just naturally know how to establish rapport with circumstances you’ve never seen before. That’s why your spontaneous urges are likely to generate fun learning experiences, not awkward messes. You’ll thrive as you improvise adeptly with volatile forces. It may therefore seem like your progress will be easy, even a bit magical. Some people may regard your breakthroughs as unearned. But you and I will know that you’re merely harvesting the benefits that come from a long period of honing your powers. 1/>@71=@< (Dec. 22–Jan. 19): A few single friends of mine use the dating site OkCupid to meet potential lovers. One woman got the following notice: “We are pleased to report that you are in the top half of OkCupid’s most attractive users. How can we say this with confidence? Because we’ve tracked click-thrus on your photo and analyzed other people’s reactions to you . . . Your new elite status comes with one important privilege: You will now see more attractive people in your match results. Also! You’ll be shown to more attractive people in their match results. And, no, we didn’t send this email to everyone on OkCupid. Go ask an ugly friend.� According to my analysis of the astrological omens, Capricorn, you will soon receive a metaphorically comparable message, not from OkCupid, but from the universe itself.

/?C/@7CA (Jan. 20–Feb. 18): The liberation movement kindled in the 1960s wasn’t all fun and games. It ushered in expansive new ways of thinking about gender, race, sexuality, spirituality, music, and consciousness itself, but it was fueled by anger as well as by the longing for pleasure and meaning and transcendence. A key focus of the rage was opposition to the Vietnam War. The adrenaline stirred by antiwar protests was an instrumental part of the mix that propelled the entire era’s push for freedom. I’m hoping that the oil hemorrhage in the Gulf of Mexico will become a similar beacon in the next ten years. Can you think of a comparable prod in your personal life, Aquarius? A gnawing injustice that will help awaken and feed your irresistible drive to emancipate yourself ? >7A13A (Feb. 19–March 20): Here’s a thought from Piscean poet W.H. Auden: “The image of myself which I try to create in my own mind in order that I may love myself is very different from the image which I try to create in the minds of others in order that they may love me.� If what Auden describes is true for you, I suggest you try this experiment: Merge the two images; see if you can make them the same. You’re entering a phase in your cycle when you will have a tremendous opportunity to unify the inner and outer parts of your life. (And if Auden’s description is not true for you, congratulations: You are either an enlightened saint or well on your way to becoming one.)
