HARD WORK? REALLY?

EDITOR

I AGREE with Gibral Jillard’s assessment (“Real Problems,� Posts, July 25) that “if the worst thing that happens on any given day is someone asks you for a quarter, well, you are truly blessed.� Being fearful of the world as it currently exists is neurotic at best and extremely limiting to one’s personal freedom. Be thankful that you give the appearance of someone who has surplus funds and actually gives a crap about the downtrodden. The choice is yours whether or not to keep your karmic account current by coughing up the quarter, or not. However, I do take exception to the “panhandling for a living is hard work� statement. I don’t disagree that everything about being in a position whereby one has to take the decision that panhandling is the best option available is distasteful, demeaning, and the work environment can frequently be challenging. But these factors don’t make being a panhandler for a living “hard work.�

For the sake of illustration let us agree that panhandling for a living is “hard work� and based on that criterion panhandlers should be allowed to ply their trade indiscriminately. Couldn’t the argument then be made that pimps, prostitutes, drug dealers, and even politicians be allowed to roam Pacific Avenue unencumbered by city statutes asking us to contribute to their personal largesse? At least in the case of pimps, prostitutes and drug dealers they offer something of value in exchange. Terry Hardin Santa Cruz

FROM THE WEB

HARSH REVIEWS HURTFUL [RE: “Santa Cruz Fringe Festival,� SantaCruz.

com]: I am a bit disappointed by the critique in some of these reviews. Fringe Festivals usually display local talent that share their work even though this is not their day jobs. One should not expect Broadway polished shows or even off-Broadway. I think it’s disheartening for these entertainers to have reviewers like Georgia, probably as minimally experienced as some of these performers, try to make a name for themselves by mocking others. Aaron Schleifer

JUST ONE OPINION AARON, I can sympathize with anyone receiving a negative review at a Fringe Festival or in any theater endeavor. Performers often reach into their emotional and creative center and then expose themselves to the opinions of all who view it. I agree with you that that alone is deserving of support. It isn’t easy and a harsh reviewer can certainly put an unsure performer off of the effort. So I am not disagreeing with that much of what you’ve said in your post but I’d like to express my greater concern with the premise that suggests that the reviewer’s role is to support the Fringe by pulling their punches. ‌ Hopefully, the public knows enough to understand the limited usefulness of reading one reviewer’s opinion. On RottenTomatoes. com right now one could read a review of Moonrise Kingdom at the Denton Record Chronicle that calls it “... unbearable ‌ whimsyâ€? but, fortunately, they also include 172 other reviews and the fact that 94 percent of them loved the movie. To my knowledge, the only reviews of this year’s Fringe Festival shows in Santa Cruz are written on this page. We need more reviewers and I know that they’ll be subjective but I hope they aren’t overgentle even as I hope that the artists reviewed don’t take these notes as the last word on their work.

Bait & Switch

PRISONER OF PROCEDURE Guadalupe Olvera’s right to move in with his daughter in Aptos was disputed by Nevada authorities for almost three years.

Leaving Las Vegas The guardianship case that wouldn’t end

L

LAST month Guadalupe Olvera, 93, rode in the Aptos Fourth of July parade. A survivor of the Battle of the Bulge, Olvera cruised through town in a vintage World War II jeep with his fellow VFW members, waving at the families lining the streets, who saluted from the sidewalk and cheered. It was a lovely day, but it’s been a long road for Olvera and his family to the Aptos parade. For most of the last three years Olvera and his daughter, Rebecca Schultz of Aptos, have been entangled in a messy and expensive guardianship dispute with his court-appointed guardian, Jared Shafer, a professional guardian and fiduciary who operates a business in Las Vegas. Guardianship, also referred to

as conservatorship, is a legal process where a judge appoints a third party individual to care for a “ward,� usually an elderly or disabled person. The guardian takes direct control over the ward’s life, both personally and financially. The guardian is often responsible for big decisions such as where the ward will live, who is allowed to visit with the ward and even whether to continue with life-support systems. But the three-year dispute with Shafer wasn’t over the finer details of Olvera’s care. It was over who was entitled to serve as guardian of him and his nearly $1 million estate: Shafer or Schultz, Olvera’s only daughter. Schultz, an artist by profession, sees more than a troublesome series of lawsuits for herself in the ordeal. She

BY GEORGIA PERRY

sees at best a system weighted against families and at worst a conspiracy, sanctioned by Nevada courts and overlooked by the federal government, to steal from the elderly. She accuses Shafer of having stolen from her father, saying that a year’s worth of pension and social security payments are missing and have “never been accounted for.� She says Shafer fabricated bills and withdrew excessive funds from Olvera’s Wells Fargo checking account, depleting it by almost $300,000 since November 2009. “I went into this not knowing anything about guardianship. Not knowing anything about lawyers. I’m just an artist. I’m just a normal person,� she says. “I didn’t know how corrupt it was.�

In 2002, as Schultz tells it, her father and mother moved to Nevada, “lured by promotional videos sent by property developers� promising no state income taxes and ample senior citizen services. Schultz says she discouraged them from leaving California, where they had lived for their entire adult lives, but kept in touch with them and visited their Nevada home. In 2005 Olvera’s wife filed for guardianship over her husband’s person. (Court documents obtained by the Weekly state that Olvera has had mild dementia since 2004 but is able to communicate and express preferences.) When his wife died in November 2009, Olvera’s guardianship was freed up. Nevada law states that a guardian must live in the same state as the ward, so Schultz—Olvera’s only living child— wasn’t immediately qualified. She called Family Court Commissioner Jon Norheim’s office for advice. According to Schultz, the woman who answered the phone told her she would need to have a temporary guardian put in place and gave her Shafer’s unlisted home telephone number. When Schultz called Shafer, he told her she needed an attorney, too. Schultz says he set up an appointment for her with elder law attorney Elyse Tyrell for the next morning. At the appointment with Tyrell the next day, Schultz says they agreed to put Shafer in place as a temporary guardian while Schultz worked out the details of moving her father to California and assuming permanent guardianship. Tyrell filed the guardianship orders immediately. A few days later, Schultz and Shafer went to her father’s home together and stepped aside for a private conversation. According to Schultz, that day Shafer told her that he expected he would be able to transfer the guardianship of her father to Schultz within three to

a nicely appointed room in Schultz’s six months. She says he told her not to house. Schultz and her husband Robert mention anything about guardianship provide meals, laundry, help with to her father for fear that it might cause bathing and transportation to doctor him anxiety, and limited how long her visits.

This seemed like a red flag to Schultz, who turned to her attorney, Tyrell, for assistance and says she got quite a surprise. Just two weeks before Schultz “She told me, ‘I don’t work for moved her father to California, Schultz you, I work for Jared Shafer.

C U R R E N T S | L E AV I N G L A S V E G A S today,â€? says Commissioner Norheim, with an apologetic smile. “You may have greater luck at a higher level than me.â€? Norheim then cites a report conducted by a court social worker months before, which allegedly says Olvera didn’t want to move to California. “The ward has continuously expressed that he doesn’t want to move to California,â€? says Norheim, “that he wants to be here with the friends in the facility that he’s in, because he developed bonds there ‌ he likes the social environment there.â€? That piece, though, is odd. Olvera didn’t live in a facility with a social environment. He lived at home, alone, with just a single caregiver from an organization called Keep You Company. Schultz repeatedly refers to this experience as a “kangaroo court,â€? and says she wonders if Norheim even read the case documents.

Large Bills Only Adding insult to the injury, Schultz paid for her attorney fees with the help of a friend. Freer’s fees, however, were taken out of Olvera’s estate—but padded first, according to Schultz. In fact, bank statements from Shafer’s guardianship viewed by the Weekly show several confounding billing discrepancies. There are duplicate billings of multiple invoices with the same invoice number. There are extraordinarily high charges, such as a total of $7,475 billed for emails sent over the period of just 19 days, all listed at exactly “6 minutes each.� One bill shows a bizarre charge for 1.666667 hours. After Olvera moved to California, Shafer continued to bill his estate for in-person visits with him, which would have been impossible. Guardians are lawfully allowed to use the elderly ward’s estate money to fight in court to maintain the guardianship, often in cases against the ward’s children or other family members, resulting in a mind-bending Catch-22. People like Schultz wind up feeding the very system they’re fighting against. Schultz’s accusations against Shafer may seem extreme and almost unbelievable, but she is far from the only one making these claims.

Just typing the name Jared E. Shafer into Google’s search engine pulls up several pages of complaints against him on consumer report websites, making it impossible to unearth his professional website through the heaps of corruption accusations. And this isn’t just a Las Vegas problem. “This is happening on an ongoing basis all over the country. The states where old folks go to retire like Florida, Nevada, California are the worst,� affirms Elaine Renoire, director of the National Association to Stop Guardian Abuse. In a September 2010 report on physical abuse and financial exploitation by guardians, the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) wrote that in 20 selected cases, “GAO found that guardians stole or otherwise improperly obtained $5.4 million in assets from 158 incapacitated victims, many of whom were seniors.� Closer to home, the Mercury News recently conducted a six-month investigation into guardian and fiduciary abuse in Santa Clara County. Reporters found similar instances of lavish bills from guardians going unchallenged by the courts. The Weekly spoke with Robert

Statements from Shafer’s guardianship show several confounding billing discrepancies L. Morris, a partner in the Las Vegas law firm Grant, Morris and Dobbs specializing in estate, trust administration and guardianship. Morris is unaffiliated with Schultz’s case but says he has had clients with similar complaints against professional guardians. Morris says that, as a practice, he doesn’t refer clients to professional guardians like Shafer. “You run into these issues of breach of fiduciary duty, mismanagement with

any professional guardian who is out there for hire,� he says. Renoire explains that most professional guardianship situations come about as the result of family disputes: “Sometimes family members get into a dispute about money or care issues and take the matter to court. They expect the judge to hear both sides and make a fair decision. On a growing level instead, the judge hears family disputes and brings in a third party as a guardian or conservator.� Renoire encourages families, especially those with elderly parents, to turn to respected community members and counselors before taking their disputes to court. “Most people that need a guardian, they need them quickly, and they don’t have time to do research. They don’t know about guardianship until they’re stuck.� “The newest wave of victims are coming to shore: Baby Boomers,� she adds.

Victory Day Once in Santa Cruz County, Schultz researched local fiduciaries and decided on William Chaddock, a Santa Cruz fiduciary with over 30 years of experience. On July 16, Santa Cruz family court judge Timothy Volkmann and The Grunsky Firm, representing Shafer locally, agreed to appoint Chaddock as guardian over Olvera’s estate and Schultz and her husband as guardian over her father’s person. Shafer’s guardianship will be terminated, as long as Shafer and the Nevada courts finalize the procedure. Keith Dysart, Schultz’s local attorney, encouraged her to take the day off and celebrate—she had won. Schultz reports that she was in shock, and says she doesn’t feel out of the woods yet. She expects Shafer will drag out the transition, making it “difficult and expensive.� Schultz, for her part, isn’t finished. “We still are, for a long time, going to be dealing with making Shafer accountable. That’s going to be the issue now. I’m still going to keep at it with the feds and everything. It’s not over.� “It has consumed my life because I’m a fighter,� she says. “He’s messed with the wrong family this time. I’m not going to let it go.� 0

Off the couch and into the forest BY MARIA GRUSAUSKAS

THE national bestseller Born to Run by Christopher McDougall couldn’t have come into my life at a better time. I was feeling doughy. I longed to be like the Mexican Tarahumara in McDougall’s book: chomping chia seeds for energy and floating over the land in sandals and a loincloth for miles on end. Instead of ultramarathons, though, my goal was (and is) a nice five-mile sweat. Just enough for my mind to work out the daily kinks and my body to grow taut. There was only one problem: I hadn’t run, I mean really run, in years. Let’s face it, when you’re out of shape, running sucks. I plodded through three exasperating miles of run-walking. I needed help. Jamey Harris, 41, and Rod Heskett, 44, are the heart and soul of Santa Cruz Running, a six-year-old organization that brings runners together every Wednesday evening in Capitola and every Sunday morning in Nisene Marks, all levels welcome. They also give private coaching sessions, which is how I found myself awkwardly bounding alongside the two lanky, mop-topped athletes. “Slow down,� they urged me, right off the bat. Were they kidding? Trying to make me feel better? No, even world-class athletes need to warm up. The next piece of advice was epiphanic, though: “Sleep from the knees down, and just get your feet to relax, all the time, and feel those toes spread out,� said Heskett. With back straight, and letting the “big muscles� drive your movement,

ON YOUR NISENE MARKS Coaches Jamey Harris, left, and Rod Heskett like to run in the woods. it’s easier to relax, said Heskett, which is all I’ve wanted to do since reading McDougall’s words. Relax enough, he writes, and your body becomes so familiar with the cradle-rocking rhythm that you almost forget you’re moving. And once you break through to that soft, half-levitating flow, that’s when the moonlight and champagne show up. Moonlight and champagne: the elusive runner’s high. Heskett and Harris wholeheartedly believe in it. “That happens when you’re in an efficient burning mode. It just opens all capillaries and lets it all flow. Your whole body is awake right now,� Heskett explained to me. “There’s times when I’ll be running on a trail, and I feel like I could run down some kind of game and eat it,� says Harris. That primal running instinct is another reason Heskett and Harris like to run in packs, and why they never listen to music while running: they want to feel connected to the forest, their breath. Alert and alive. Our conversation revealed that

taking a day off is good, since your body repairs and rebuilds during sleep and rest. When it comes to preworkout meals, eat whatever your body responds to best—everyone is different. “I’ve seen guys run great off of a chili dog,� said Harris. Best hangover cure? “Run for at least an hour.� Before even asking, I knew that running for Heskett and Harris went far deeper than size 6 jeans. A healthy addiction, a way of life. But I asked anyway. “So how long before I get hot?� The answer he gave wasn’t the easy one I was looking for, but it did give me the tingle of empowerment: “What you do with your physicality is all yours. Because nobody’s gonna do it for you,� said Heskett. “And nobody’s going to be able to take it away from you.�

One man’s decision to make 52 dance videos this year and free himself from himself BY JACOB PIERCE

@Vi@^b9Zh^\c#Xdb

F

Filmmaker Daniel Mollner waited over four decades before calling himself a dancer. Now he’s making up for lost time. “It’s almost like this slingshot thing,â€? Mollner says. “After years of resisting and being afraid to call myself a dancer, there’s all this pent-up energy. I’ve been holding back for so long. I don’t want to do that anymore.â€? This week, Mollner will release his 27th dance video of the year, keeping him more or less on track to meet his goal of releasing a dance video on YouTube every week in a collection he’s calling Project 52. “I have no business doing a dance video a week,â€? says Mollner, sitting in his Lower Ocean living room, his strawberry blond hair still wet from a morning shower. “That’s insane. Nobody in his right mind would do that. But somebody who had been holding back for years and was ready to fully embrace their identity might.â€? Last month, Mollner wrapped up two screenings of the second quarterly installment of his films— weeks 14 through 26—at the Santa Cruz Fringe Festival. Audiences saw a wide range of film styles, many with simple but empowering messages. In “Sign of the Times,â€? Mollner plays a barbershop employee stuck on sign-shaker duty on Soquel Avenue. After a minute or so of tentatively bouncing a cardboard “Sure Cutsâ€? sign, his character spins the board around, takes out a can of red spray paint, writes the words “I Am Freeâ€? on the back and proceeds to dance on the sidewalk like a maniac. During the second Fringe screening, as if inspired by it all over again, Mollner jumped from his seat at Center Stage to dance up and down the theater aisle. ¨

11 C O V E R S T O R Y | D A N C E R E V O L U T I O N “Sign of the Times� isn’t a typical Mollner production. But the word “typical� doesn’t seem to appear anywhere in Mollner’s vocabulary. His videos don’t follow a three-anda-half-minute MTV formula—or any formula at all, for that matter. “The Person,� in which Mollner dances through a field of yellow flowers, features only him. In other films like “Room 105,� which chronicles the hardships of high school adolescence through an impromptu dance party spliced with interviews, the 47-yearold director doesn’t dance at all. And in “Naturata,� a meditative series of human body movements set against the running water and dappled shade of a creek, nothing like an ordinary definition of “dance� appears. “What I’m finding now, especially, during the project—because I’m taking some chances and experimenting and exploring—I’m finding dance is any rhythmic and/or expressive movement,� says Mollner. “I’m seeing animals doing what I experience as dance. I’m watching the natural world—plants,

the air, the breeze, insects. Any place there’s movement of any kind I’m starting to experience as dance.�

Leap of Faith The idea for Project 52 came after a series of discussions between Mollner and his life coach, Todd Phillips. After being unable to find a job, Mollner, who holds a bachelor’s degree in video and filmmaking from the California Institute of the Arts, began to ask himself: why not stick to the two things he loves most— filmmaking and dance? That courageous choice would not be one most people would make in the midst of a recession. But Phillips calls Mollner a more “present� person than most. “What passes for conversation in our society is you monologue and then I monologue. [Daniel] is a more clear channel,� Phillips says. “If I have a little piece of resentment in me, Daniel will see it! For me, Daniel is an invitation to come alive.�

Five Not to Miss Our must-see list of Project 52 films “I Dance� (Week 2) Mollner’s second film might be his most honest. It’s just him and the open floor. Affirmations scroll across the screen explaining why Mollner dances (“to get out of my head and into my body,� “to find myself �). The seven-minute film is like a thesis statement for the entire project. “No Right Turn� (Week 10) Film noir goes postmodern. In this mostly black-and-white piece, three dancers find creative forms of visual expression over a remix of new and old music.

“Full Contact� (Week 15) Two football players (Mollner and friend Brandon Stewart) line up for a mud-slinging practice. What unfolds is a work of art. “Mother and Child� (Week 19) Mollner’s “Happy Mother’s Day� piece features a young mother holding her newborn baby and dancing as she narrates an email to her own mother. “Concrete Buddha� (Week 22) “There’s no such thing as a concrete Buddha,� this amusing film tells its audience, “Only concrete shaped like a Buddha.� That’s deep. The message conveyed, as dancing hippies try hard to relax and meditate, is that spirituality can’t be chased. It must be found. www.danielmollner.com 8OQ]P >WS`QS

Dance It Out Still on Mollner’s to-do list is a video with more 100 people walking toward the camera on the beach—a tribute to his friend, Kaya Nati, who died of leukemia seven years ago.

Mollner says he spends at least 40 hours a week on his videos—most of it editing. “I guess I would have realized that if I really thought about it, but I didn’t quite get how long the postproduction would be,� Mollner says. It may sound like too much time to spend making YouTube videos, but Mollner doesn’t see it that way. “In order to make a quality video— and I’m committed to some level of quality even if it’s a video every week—I’ve had to work 40 to 60 hours,� Mollner told his audience at Center Stage at the end of his Fringe show. “So, that means I couldn’t work as a carpenter or do other odd jobs as I had thought when I started.� To help cover his costs, Mollner created an account on Indiegogo. com (similar to Kickstarter) to raise money for his weekly efforts. He has 109 sponsors right now, well short of his goal of 500, averaging $52 apiece. In a way, the site is a nice match for Mollner, since his art can be enjoyed by a global audience (his Week Two video, “I Dance,� has over 7,000 views). Thanks to Indiegogo, he can gather funding from a global audience too. That doesn’t mean asking for money is necessarily an easy thing to do. Phillips says it takes a certain kind of bravery. “He dares to have the courage to say, ‘I deserve this. This is a worthy project because I’m sharing it and giving to others and it’s not about me. I’m going to share it and allow people to be alive,’� Phillips says. Courage comes up often in conversations with Mollner’s friends. “Some of his videos are about him coming out as a dancer, and he shows a real vulnerability and also courage,� says 72-year-old Tom Rucker, who met Mollner at the popular Dance Church ritual at the 418 on Sunday mornings, and who appears in “Stick� (Week 23). “He really understands the human side of dancing in addition to the discipline.�

high school, if you danced, you got ridiculed.� It’s one of many reasons Mollner is on this mission. As far as Mollner’s concerned, dance is a great way to handle a lot of issues. He’s also coming to terms with the fact that he isn’t going to live forever, a realization that first started nagging him on his most recent birthday. “For the first time, I had this experience where I thought, ‘Wait a minute: this room doesn’t go on forever,’� Mollner says. “‘There’s a wall on the other side with an exit door. And for the first time I can feel it, almost. I can hear my voice echoing off it. I find that’s one of my biggest

challenges now, finding peace with my mortality.� For now, though, Mollner’s body is in great shape and he still knows what he wants to do when he wakes up every morning. “I’m a dancer,� Mollner says. “I’m many things, and one of the things I am is a dancer. I love it. It’s in my blood. It’s what I like to do everyday. It doesn’t really matter whether I think I’m good at it or not. It’s just what’s true about me.�

PEAKING LIGHTS

BIG SANDY & HIS FLY-RITE BOYS

PAUL THORN & BAND

Surveying their retro album art, or catching sight of Big Sandy & his FlyRite boys emerging from a 1950 yellow school-turned-tour bus, one could be forgiven for thinking the Anaheimbased band was recently released from a ’50s bomb shelter. In actually, they’re the last vestiges of Southern California’s late ’80s roots revival. And yet it’s not their shtick but rather the supremely danceable California country swing they play—a combination of steel guitar, upright bass and bandleader Big Sandy’s smooth vocals—that has kept these Rockabilly Hall-of-Famers around so long. Don Quixote’s; $10; 8pm. (Tessa Stuart)

Paul Thorn has been living at the crossroads his entire life. The son of a preacher, former prizefighter and now road dog has many years of experience refereeing the no-holds-barred fight between sin and redemption. Reconciling the two isn’t in Thorn’s scope; instead, he gets his kicks from examining the eternal opposition between the two extremes and turning on gritty roots music for those of the flock who greet Sunday morning with a hangover. Rio Theatre; $25 adv/$40 gold; 7:30pm. (Paul M. Davis)

Residents of rural Wisconsin by way of the Bay Area, husband-and-wife duo Peaking Lights combine elements of dub, krautrock, synth-pop and electropsych music to create a style that pulls from a variety of influences yet refuses to sit nicely in one genre. Balancing the warmth of analog instrumentation with the convenience of digital editing, Indra Dunis and Aaron Coyes weave sometimes loose and spacious, sometimes dense and repetitive layers of sound into extended compositions that are unpredictable and experimental yet easy on the ears. As one reviewer put it, they “hint at what might have happened had the Grateful Dead jammed with Amon Duul while King Tubby fiddled with the controls.� Crepe Place; $12; 9pm. (Cat Johnson)

THE GROUCH & ELIGH The Grouch and Eligh began their emcee careers after a singular moment of inspiration. For Eligh, a viewing of Beat Street followed by the purchase of LL Cool J’s “I’m Bad� when he was still in elementary school inspired him to become a rapper. For Oakland-bred Grouch, Del Da Funky Homosapien and the Hieroglyphics paved the way for him and his 8-track recorder. The rest is history, and now these members of indie rap group Living Legends are two of the most influential underground hip-hop artists in the world. Catalyst; $16 adv/$19 door; 9pm. (Lily Stoicheff)

SATURDAY | 8/4

BOMBA ESTEREO Bomba Estereo decided to make music in 2005, and since then they have—pardon the pun—blown up. The group blends the traditional hip-swaying sounds of cumbia and champeta from their native Colombia with dub, electronic and reggae while lead singer Li Saumet’s lyrics both serenade and slap your eardrums. Their raw, authentic, yet undeniably fun music earned them comparisons to M.I.A. and a

nod from MTV as the Best New Band in the World in 2009. Don’t speak Spanish? Don’t worry—your body will have no problem translating Bomba Estereo’s hot, energetic music into a psychedelic groove. Moe’s Alley; $18 adv/$20 door; 9pm. (LS)

But the thing that sets Charles apart from the pack is his incorporation of Afro-Caribbean melodies, rhythms, chants and myths into his music. Born on the island of Trinidad, Charles’ compositions are rich with stories, motifs and characters that have been passed down through generations of artists. Kuumbwa; $20 adv/$23 door; 7pm. (CJ)

WEDNESDAY | 8/8

KASEY CHAMBERS Aussie Kasey Chambers won over millions of fans with her 2001 single “Not Pretty Enough.� Now a few years have gone by, and a stronger, more powerful Chambers decided to revisit those same feelings of her insecure youth. The result is Little Bird, an album written and recorded within a very emotionally intense six weeks of Chambers’ life. Poignant pearls of touching truth are laced throughout the otherwise sunny and optimistic album, in which Chambers continues to push the boundaries of modern country music. Rio Theatre; $26; 8pm.

High Summer News BY CHRISTINA WATERS

Thank God for Bittersweet Bistro, where dining doesn’t have to break what’s left of your bank. Recession Crushers are those happy and delicious little daily specials — $6 each—served starting at 3:30pm and all evening long in the bar and on the outdoor patio. How about a quartet of raw oysters with housemade cocktail sauce ($6) and a Stoli vodka martini ($5)? This is good news. Or truffle fries and aioli. Coconutcrusted prawns with Asian slaw. Chicken quesadilla with salsa fresca and sour cream. See what I mean? Foods you want to eat, paired with a cocktail or wine special. My favorite is the crab, crayfish and artichoke dip topped with cheese and wood-fire–baked. Each one of these appealing dishes is priced at a recession-crushing $6. I know I just said that, but it’s worth repeating. Bittersweet is located at 787 Rio Del Mar Blvd. in Aptos. Get on over there and do your part to help crush the, well, the you-know-what.

WE ALL SCREAM Mission Hill Creamery entrepreneur David Kumec is busy putting the finishing

touches on his new downtown Santa Cruz shop. Kumec has battled “multiple

setbacks on construction,� but hopes to be open by Labor Day. The new shop will be located at 1101 B Pacific Ave., directly across from Hoffman’s and Kianti’s. Get in line soon! GLASSY OPTIONS The new winetasting opportunities at Annieglass continue to win new friends for Ann Morhauser’s elegant creations. The new news is that the “Pours & Tours� happen on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Take a tour between 11:30am and 2pm and discover just how the renowned glass creations are made. Or enjoy tastings of Santa Cruz and Monterey county wines—three wines for $5—from noon to 4:30pm. Upcoming samples showcase offerings of Garden Variety Cheese (Aug. 11) and Buzzone Family Vineyards (Aug. 18). 310 Harvest Drive, Watsonville. 831.761.2041.

Chip Scheuer

RYAN SHELTON SCW: What was the biggest challenge in moving your culinary work from the Bay Area to Santa Cruz? RS: Chefs generally carry a queue in their heads of the next few new ideas they’d like to see, and everything I was dreaming of had no place on the Le Cigare Volant menu. At BaumĂŠ, I was last working on teeny-tiny 12-course French cuisine tasting menu dishes with a strong Asian influence and a focus on technique and luxury. Turning away from that Asian influence was probably my hardest challenge. What are the upsides and downsides of working in an exhibition kitchen? I love working in an exhibition kitchen. I love the infrequent conversations which drift my way. Being able to catch things like “Oh, my gosh, this is so good!â€? is really rewarding because you know it’s genuine. Where do your menu ideas come from? Farmers markets? Contact with other chefs? Travel? My menu ideas come first from the season. If it’s July, for example, I know what melon is right on the horizon. Once I know what ingredient to feature, I begin tracing my food memories of that ingredient and when I’ve most enjoyed it with what other flavors. What’s the hardest part about creating dinners for Le Cigare Volant’s clientele? The most surprising challenge for me has been how well local Santa Cruz diners know where their food comes from. They are sharper about local sources than I am, which sets the bar quite high for me. The benefit of this is that the response to proper sourcing is always immediate and favorable. How does the day begin? I try to get as much going early as I can. After I feel I’ve made enough of a dent in what needs to be done, I meet with each of my staff individually, and we discuss how they will approach the dishes that they are responsible for that day or that week.
