OPINION
EDITOR’S NOTE Looking over the program for the Santa Cruz Film Festival, I was shocked at how many films this year are about subjects that have also been GT cover stories over the last few years, including Santa Cruz’s housing crisis and homeless encampments (At Capacity), the history of Mt. Umunhum (Umunhum), major shifts in cannabis culture (The End of Weed) and Ursula K. Le Guin (Worlds of Ursula K. Le Guin). But what surprised me the most was one that wasn’t ever on our cover: the story of Santa Cruz native William McCarthy, frontman for the Brooklyn indie rock band Augustines and the subject of Todd Howe’s film

CORPORATE ARROGANCE

Your story last week (GT, 9/26) regarding “Blowback” should alarm anyone who ventures forth where crops are being sprayed. Of course there is the right to farm. That is settled law, long ago. I support our ag business for the great, healthy products it produces, and the huge tax receipts it provides for Santa Cruz County. Our county depends on them. But how you control mites and other insects that eat or destroy these crops is just as important. Is every company to blame? No. But I wish to point out one offender: E Berry of Hollister. They farm the raspberries behind Bronte Avenue where I live. They give notice to just one of our neighbors, and expect her to warn all of us. She does not work for E Berry. She warns us because she believes in the philosophy of Fred Rogers: will you be my neighbor? My carcinogen-free neighbor? Sadly, E Berry does not. They don’t answer the phone. They don’t list a CEO for their company. Just a P.O. box in Hollister. They use Acramite 50WS, which contains four proven carcinogens: bifenazate, kaolin, silica gel and sodium 2 sulfonate. These ingredients are toxic to bees, birds, fish,
Rise, which gets its U.S. premiere at SCFF this week. The story of McCarthy’s life—growing up in a heartbreaking situation in Santa Cruz and eventually finding some catharsis for his family tragedies in his songwriting—is so compelling, and I can’t recommend the film highly enough. I also got the chance to put McCarthy on the cover this week, after speaking to him and Howe about the film and the story behind it. The thing is, there are two big festivals in Santa Cruz this week, so Wallace Baine and I tag-teamed them, with Wallace writing about the Santa Cruz Comedy Festival. I particularly like his “must see” picks for SCCF, and the story of how a very big development may be in store for the local comedy scene. Check it all out and see you at this week’s festivals!

pets and people. It can’t be used within 25 feet of a fresh water source. You must wear hazmat gear to apply the spray. The neighbors don’t get hazmat gear to live in their yards or patios. And the dust goes everywhere. E Berry gives us less than 72 hours to prepare. They say they will spray on a Sunday, and then spray Monday, after we have let our pets out and opened our windows or doors for “fresh” air. This issue is more important than my candidacy for city council. And I am proud to have the Sierra Club endorsement. This corporate arrogance must stop!

Lammam will perform at “What’s Happening in Syria?,” which is scheduled for 7-9 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 6 at the Resource Center for Nonviolence on Ocean Street. The evening will also feature a powerful scene from a play about the journey of desperate refugees. For information, email escuelita@baymoon.com.
UCSC has been awarded a grant from the U.S. Department of Agriculture to help evaluate the effectiveness of programs designed to support beginning farmers. The problem? The average age of farmers in this country is approaching 60. The solution? That’s what this three-year, $600,000 grant will help determine, as the UCSC Center for Agroecology and Sustainable Food Systems (CASFS) uses it to create webinars, teleconferencing, and digital tools that will improve the support network for ag upstarts.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK
SHORT-TERM LIMITS
“The greatness of a culture can be found in its festivals.”— SIDDHARTH KATRAGADDA
Like many longtime Santa Cruz residents, I’ve been following the discussion about Measure M and lack of long-term rentals in Santa Cruz County; it’s an important discussion for our community to have. I find it troubling, however, that nowhere do I see a conversation which includes any mention of the impact of short-term vacation rentals on the availability of our long-term rentals. Have I somehow missed this? Short-term rentals such as Airbnb are a huge reason rents >8

ROB BREZSNY FREE WILL ASTROLOGY Week of October 3 ARIES Mar21–Apr19 Electra is an action-packed story written by ancient Greek playwright Sophocles. It features epic characters taking drastic action in response to extreme events. In contrast to that text is Marcel Proust’s novel In Search of Lost Time, which draws from the sensitive author’s experiences growing up, coming of age, and falling in love, all the while in quest for meaning and beauty. Author Virginia Woolf compared the two works, writing, “In six pages of Proust we can find more complicated and varied emotions than in the whole of the Electra.” In accordance with astrological omens, I recommend that you specialize in the Proustian mode rather than the Sophoclean. Your feelings in the next five weeks could be as rich and interesting and educational as they have been in a long time. Honor them!
TAURUS Apr20–May20 Researchers in Maryland have created a new building material with a strength-to-weight ratio that’s eight times better than steel. It’s an effective insulator, and in some forms can be bent and folded. Best of all, it’s biodegradable and cost-effective. The stuff is called nano wood, and is derived from lightweight, fast-growing trees like balsa. I propose that we make it your main metaphor for the foreseeable future. Why? Because I think you’re primed to locate or create your own version of a flexible, durable, robust building block.

The U.S. Secretary of Defense paid an official visit to Indonesia early this year. The government arranged for him to observe soldiers as they demonstrated how tough and well-trained they were. Some of the troops shimmied through broken glass, demolished bricks with their heads, walked through fire, and bit heads off snakes. I hope you won’t try stunts like that in the coming weeks, Gemini. It will be a favorable time for you show off your skills and make strong impressions. You’ll be wise to impress important people with how creative and resourceful you are. But there’s no need to try too hard or resort to exaggeration.

do big things.” Novelist Tom Robbins provides us with one more nuance: “When we accept small wonders, we qualify ourselves to imagine great wonders.”
LIBRA Sep23–Oct 22 Libran astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson offers this observation: “When you look for things in life like love, meaning, motivation, it implies they are sitting behind a tree or under a rock. [But] the most successful people in life recognize that in life they create their own love, they manufacture their own meaning, they generate their own motivation.” I think Tyson’s simple wisdom is exactly what you need to hear right now, Libra. You’re primed for a breakthrough in your ability to create your own fate.
SCORPIO Oct23–Nov21 Japanese entrepreneur Hiroki Terai has created a business that offers crying therapy. His clients watch short videos specially formulated to make them weep. A professional helper is on hand to gently wipe their tears away and provide comforting words. “Tears have relaxing and healing effects,” says an Okinawan musician who works as one of the helpers. Hiroki Terai adds, “It has been said that one drop of tear has the effect of relieving stress for a week.” I wish there were a service like this near where you live, Scorpio. The next two weeks will be a perfect time to relieve pent-up worry and sadness and anxiety through cathartic rituals like crying. What other strategies might work for you?
SAGITTARIUS Nov22–Dec21 Fling out friendly feelers! Sling out interesting invitations! Figure out how to get noticed for all the right reasons! Make yourself so interesting that no one can resist your proposals! Use your spunky riddle-solving powers to help ease your tribe’s anxieties. Risk looking odd if that will make you smarter! Plunk yourself down in pivotal places where vitality is welling up! Send out telepathic beams that say, “I’m ready for sweet adventure. I’m ready for invigorating transformation!”

CAPRICORN Dec22–Jan19
i confess that i have a fuzzy self-image. With odd regularity, i don’t seem to know exactly what or who i am. For example, i sometimes think i’m so nice and polite that i need to toughen up. But on other occasions i feel my views are so outrageous and controversial that i should tone myself down. Which is true? Often, i even neglect to capitalize the word “i.” You have probably experienced some of this fuzziness, my fellow Cancerian. But you’re now in a favorable phase to cultivate a more definitive self-image. Here’s a helpful tip: We Cancerians have a natural talent for inspiring people to love us. This ability will come in especially handy as we work on making an enduring upgrade from i to I. Our allies’ support and feedback will fuel our inner efforts to clarify our identity.
“Someone spoke to me last night, told me the truth,” writes poet Dorianne Laux. “I knew I should make myself get up, write it down, but it was late, and I was exhausted from working. Now I remember only the flavor.” I offer these thoughts, Capricorn, in the hope that they’ll help you avoid Laux’s mistake. I’m quite sure that crucial insights and revelations will be coming your way, and I want you to do whatever’s necessary to completely capture them so you can study and meditate on them at length.
LE0 Jul23–Aug22 “I am a little afraid of love, it makes me rather stupid.” So said author Simone de Beauvoir in a letter she wrote to her lover, Nelson Algren. I’m happy to let you know, Leo, that during the next twelve months, love is likely to have the opposite effect on you. According to my analysis of the astrological omens, it will tend to make you smarter and more perceptive. To the degree that you expand your capacity for love, you will become more resilient and a better decision-maker. As you get the chance to express love with utmost skill and artistry, you will awaken dormant potentials and boost your personal power.
VIRGO Aug23–Sep22 Your theme in the coming weeks is the art of attending to details. But wait! I said “the art.”That means attending to details with panache, not with overly meticulous fussing. For inspiration, meditate on St. Francis Xavier’s advice, “Be great in little things.” And let’s take his thought a step further with a quote from author Richard Shivers: “Be great in little things, and you will be given opportunity to
AQUARIUS Jan20–Feb18 As a young man, Aquarian poet Louis Dudek struck up a correspondence with renowned poet Ezra Pound, who was 32 years older. Dudek “admired him immensely,” and “loved him for the joy and the luminosity” of his poetry, but also resented him “for being so magnificent.” With a mix of mischief and adulation, Dudek wrote a poem to his hero. It included these lines: “For Christ’s sake, you didn’t invent sunlight. There was sun dazzle before you. But you talk as if you made light or discovered it.” I hope his frisky tone might inspire you to try something similar with your own idols. It would be healthy to be more playful and lighthearted about anything or anyone you take too seriously or give enormous power to.
PISCES Feb19–Mar20 In his book Till We Have Faces, C. S. Lewis writes, “Holy places are dark places. It is life and strength, not knowledge and words, that we get in them. Holy wisdom is not clear and thin like water, but thick and dark like blood.” In that spirit, and in accordance with astrological omens, I suggest you seek out dark holy places that evoke wonder and reverence, even awe. Hopefully, you will be inspired thereby to bring new beauty into your life. You’ll be purged of trivial concerns and become receptive to a fresh promise from your future life.

have gone up in our community. There is nothing mysterious here. It’s supply and demand. Conversely, if our community puts more limits on vacation rentals, then long-term rental availability will go up. In turn, rental costs should go down or at least stabilize. Of course there are other reasons for lack of housing, but this particular reason seems to be conspicuously absent from the discussion. Why is that? I have read that the city of Santa Cruz is going to limit vacation rental units to 450, but why even

GENERATION VAPE While the potential harm of e-cigarettes remains unknown, millions have quit traditional
cigarettes by using them.
Up in Smoke While vaping continues to come under fire in the media, are we missing the big picture? BY HUGH MCCORMICK times. The gum and the patch made him physically sick. The pills gave him terrible nightmares. When he tried to go cold turkey and eliminate nicotine entirely, he was miserable and angry. “No one wanted to hang out with me,” he says. Wright, 27, is one of the millions of people around the globe who has managed to quit smoking cigarettes using vaping devices. He calls electronic cigarettes, which were invented by a Chinese pharmacist whose father died from smoking in 2003, the “ultimate smoking cessation device.” Vaping, however, receives its fair share of scorn. Scary stories about exploding devices, toxic chemicals, and grade schoolers getting hooked
on e-cigarettes are hitting social and mass media outlets with more frequency. And there’s one question Wright hears a lot these days: “Is vaping safe?” In the United States, e-cigs have developed a menacing reputation. Powerful campaigns from antismoking groups have created the perception that e-cigs are just as dangerous as their tobacco counterparts. Vaping devices contain no tobacco, but they are deemed tobacco products and placed under similar restrictions. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has been a vocal critic of electronic cigarettes for years, consistently warning the public about the potential dangers of

little over six years ago, Michael Wright walked into Beyond Vape in Capitola—one of the area’s first e-cigarette shops—with a few crumpled $20 bills, a half a pack of smokes, and a big dream: to end his smoking habit once and for all. Wright started smoking what he calls “analog” cigarettes at age 14— two to three packs of Camel Reds a day for almost 12 years. Big Tobacco hooked him early. “When I was smoking cigarettes, I couldn’t breathe. I couldn’t exercise, and I smelled really bad,” he says. “My whole life changed when I started vaping.” Wright says he had tried every other product on the market designed to beat smoking, numerous
e-cigarettes. Recently though, things at the agency may have begun to change. Although not recommending vaping outright, FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb has repeatedly discussed vaping as a valuable, yet unproven, tool to wean adult smokers off cigarettes. Most experts agree that conventional cigarettes are the true menace, significantly more damaging than their electronic counterparts. Groups like the American Cancer Society highly recommend electronic nicotine delivery systems to smokers trying to quit. The ACS contends that members of the general public are being misled by anti-vaping campaigns on social media and the mainstream media. “Over one-third of the population is under the mistaken impression that vaping is just as dangerous to one’s health as smoking,“ estimates the ACS. In Great Britain, health agencies, the government and the public are more welcoming of e-cigs, as millions of Brits are using them to ditch “the stinkies.” The U.K.’s National Health Service reports that “an estimated 2.9 million adults in Great Britain currently use e-cigarettes, and of these, 1.5 million people have completely stopped smoking cigarettes.” In the U.S, the decades-long war on smoking has become, in effect, a war on nicotine. But nicotine has arguably never been the deadly villain in cigarettes. British scientists and politicians contend the harm from smoking doesn’t come from nicotine, which is already an over-the-counter component in gum, the patch, and pills. Experts agree the true harm comes from the thousands of other chemicals contained in tobacco smoke, including tar and carbon monoxide. The British Parliament recently concluded that e-cigs are 95 less harmful than traditional cigarettes. An August 2018 report rejects claims that e-cigs can be a gateway to smoking, and that taxes on vaping should be cut significantly. Just last month, the U.K’s House of Commons and Technology Committee recommended that e-cigarettes be made available on a prescription basis as a smoking cessation tool.

NEWS FAMILY PRACTICE The dive bar softball team that ended up with a halfdozen expectant mothers
OCTOBER 3-9, 2018 | GOODTIMES.SC | SANTACRUZ.COM
BY GEORGIA JOHNSON

After Callahan’s bar owner Rachael Murphy and her husband joined the Twin Lakes Church softball team more than a year ago, they began inviting friends from the bar to join. Pretty soon, they were starting their own team. Together, they recruited more Callahan’s regulars, bringing in husbands, wives and friends to their own club last fall. As soon as they started, one of their team members got pregnant—then another one did, and another, and then three more. At one point, six of the eight women on the team were pregnant and playing ball at the same time. “There must be something in the water,” Murphy jokes. “Or maybe the vodka.” “Nobody knows what goes on when the softball lights go off,” David Coombs, Murphy’s husband, laughs. For some of the teammates, their new baby is their first. They all help one another out, offering advice on strollers, feeding and exploding diapers. Murphy already has two kids at home, and says that it’s better to go through pregnancies with a support network. “The biggest thing for me is showing that women can still do things when they are pregnant,” Murphy says, on a recent afternoon in the Callahan’s parking lot, while several locals pop out for a smoke and motorcycle engines hum around her. “The mentality that I’ve seen over the years is that you get lazy and fat and your body hates you, and that’s what I experienced in my first couple of pregnancies. This time, I didn’t allow myself to do that. I pushed myself through the season, and it made me feel better about myself and my pregnancy. It’s a time to show that we don’t need to be put up in an easy chair surrounded by bonbons.” Murphy has welcomed the change in routine and says that she’s now more active than she’s ever been. She sits out back with the other players, swooning over the first newborn as the neighboring smokers keep a safe distance. “Don’t rev!” the ladies demand of the bikers. “There’s a baby here!” The Callahan’s softball team just finished its summer season last month, and although they wanted to play >16

Monarch Services sees a spike in survivors coming forward after Christine Blasey Ford testimony BY JACOB PIERCE
O
n Thursday afternoon, Kalyne Foster Renda, associate director of Monarch Services, began noticing an increase in calls to the local nonprofit, which offers support to abuse victims and those in crisis. Women also started showing up to Monarch in person to talk about their experiences as survivors of sexual abuse. Foster knew that the spike in walk-ins was no anomaly. She had been listening all day to the live testimonies of Judge Brett Kavanaugh and Christine Blasey Ford as the two appeared before the Senate Judiciary
Committee, which was considering President Donald Trump’s nomination of Kavanaugh to the U.S. Supreme Court. The committee was hearing allegations that Kavanaugh had assaulted Ford in high school. Such hearings can be very triggering for survivors, Renda says. Its impact was felt nationwide. The National Sexual Assault Hotline reported a 201 percent spike in phone calls. One 76-year-old woman from Missouri called in to a live C-SPAN broadcast to share about an assault she had experienced in the second grade. That same afternoon, Monarch
Services organized an impromptu healing circle for victims, with calming music. “It was very helpful,” Renda says of the safe space. “Even for those who haven’t been able to come into the office, having someone to talk to on the phone is very comforting.” Many of the survivors, Renda adds, have mentioned Ford’s connections to Santa Cruz. Ford is a Palo Alto University professor and an avid surfer. According to a Bay Area News Group report, she spends a lot of time on this side of the hill, along with her husband and two sons, who were in the Junior >14

NEWS HEARING IT ALL <12 Lifeguards program. Locals held a rally in support of Ford at the town clock on Thursday afternoon. Bettina Aptheker, a distinguished feminist professor at UCSC, spoke at the rally, where women showed up toting large signs supporting Ford, and motorists honked in support as they drove past. Santa Cruz Women’s March organizers held the rally
before Kavanaugh’s testimony and after Ford’s portion had wrapped up. “Hearing her testify like that was amazing,” Aptheker says. Aptheker adds that she wasn’t at all surprised by the uptick in women seeking support in the wake of Thursday’s testimonies. The hearing was everywhere— airing in bars, airports and living rooms across the country. Aptheker, herself a survivor of multiple sexual
assaults, says that victims tuning in to an event like that will hear it differently than others might. “It triggers you, even when you only partially hear her,” she says. “You get inside her experience. Instead of being outside her, it’s an interior feeling.” Renda says that calls to the center have increased over the past year, since revelations about Harvey Weinstein’s abusive behavior sparked the #MeToo movement. >18

City Council candidate Greg Larson was the last one to jump into an already crowded Santa Cruz race, but he’s wasted no time in sprinting to the front of the fundraising pack. As of Monday, Sept. 22, Larson had raised $29,382, according to financial disclosure forms. His total is buoyed by 36 big donations from individuals—like Analicia Cube, William Ow, Charles Canfield, Caleb Baskin, and former state Controller Steve Westly—who each gave the maximum $350. Such donations account for more than a third of Larson’s fundraising total. Larson, a former Los Gatos city manager, also took out a $10,000 loan, and he’s spent about that much already, giving him nearly $30,000 still on hand. City Councilmember Richelle Noroyan, the race’s only incumbent, has raised the second most, with $25,465, while environmental consultant Donna Meyers is third in the money marathon with $25,193 raised. Also in the race for these three council seats is progressive candidate Justin Cummings, an environmental educator, who has raised $15,426. Meanwhile, like-minded community organizer Drew Glover, who has earned many of the same
endorsements, has pulled in close to $10,000. Glover announced last spring that he would halt fundraising to focus on connecting with voters instead. Five other candidates have raised less than $6,000: Phillip Crawford, Cynthia Hawthorne, Ashley Scontriano, Dave King, and Paige Concannon—the latter of whom, if elected, would be the first Republican to serve on the council in years.

TRAFFICKING JAMMED As of next year, transit employees in bus, train and light-rail operations will be required to undergo a minimum of 20 minutes in human-trafficking training, thanks to a bill sponsored by Assemblymember Ash Kalra (D- San Jose) and signed by Gov. Jerry Brown last week. Kalra’s bill, AB 2034, was modeled on a 2015 program implemented at the Santa Clara County Valley Transit Authority (VTA). The training was cited by bus driver Tim Watson when he encountered a child abduction in process while on the job. California leads the nation in reported cases of human trafficking. There were 1,331 reported cases in 2016, most of
them sex trafficking cases. Santa Cruz Metro CEO Alex Clifford says his bus agency is studying the new law. Metro, he notes, already complies with a state law mandating that agencies post signs about keeping an eye out for trafficking and this law takes efforts one step further. “We’ll make sure that we incorporate it into our training program,” he says.
TICKET TO TIDE State Sen. Mike McGuire (D-Healdsburg) has been an advocate for the state’s fishermen and a proponent of reform in how fisheries are managed. He’s called for more flexibility and “real time” management of seasonal landings. Last week, Gov. Brown signed a McGuire bill that sets out to streamline the tedious filing of paper “fish tickets” by commercial anglers. The current California law authorizes the California Department of Fish and Wildlife (DFW) to accept the fish tickets—the official nomenclature is “fish landing receipts”—twice a month, in paper form only, and submitted via the U.S. mail. That’s a hassle. McGuire’s bill, SB 269, paves the way for the DFW to accept electronic fish tickets from the fleet and move away
from a process he describes as burdensome, inefficient and antiquated.
PRIVACY, RIGHT? Thanks to President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown, Gov. Brown signed a bill last week that sets out to protect the privacy of hotel guests and private-bus passengers. The California Trust Act, SB 1194, was prompted after hotel workers in Washington and Arizona disclosed the personal information of guests to federal immigration officials, leading to arrests and deportation. Motel 6 was sued by the state of Washington after it was revealed that paranoid xenophobes employed by the budget chain had released personal information of more than 9,000 guests. Brown also signed a bill last week sponsored by Assemblymember David Chiu (D-San Francisco) that will allow immigrants who file crime-victim reports or seek to represent the interests of their children in court proceedings to do so anonymously. It’s an acute issue in California, Chiu says, given that minors with undocumented parents represent 12 percent of schoolchildren in the state. TOM GOGOLA

BAR FROM HOME The Callahan’s crew welcomes the first of five softball babies.
FAMILY PRACTICE <12 this upcoming fall season, each team needs to have at least five men and five women to play, and their usual group of 19 players is a bit short on female players at the moment. With the five other pregnancies and one woman in postpartum recovery, the team only has two non-pregnant women available to play. “You have to play two days a week, and with people out and sick and breastfeeding there aren’t enough people to play,” Murphy explains. They are currently recruiting new players, women in particular. The Callahan’s team played against eight teams this past
season, including Bay Federal, New Leaf and UCSC. Although the Callahan’s team didn’t exactly go undefeated, they did win a game. “Despite our record, we are the best team,” third baseman Wes Rose insists. “Don’t let the numbers fool you. We have style points.” Murphy says the team picked up a few tricks along the way. “We all show up and are a bunch of pregnant chicks and are like, ‘You can’t strike us out because we are pregnant,”’ Murphy says. “We definitely got special treatment.” With the addition of five new babies by their next season, they say they’ll have to take turns or draw straws for who babysits. There are usually injuries, they say, so
maybe the injured players will have to be the babysitters. Murphy is due in a matter of weeks and says that post-pump jello shots are in order next season. Most of the players have some prior softball experience, even if it was 20 years ago. Though they admit that they aren’t the best team, the Callahan’s players feel confident that they have the most fun in the whole league. In matching Callahan’s T-shirts, they put up a good fight, then retire back to the bar for a family dinner, all made by Murphy herself. They even invite the other team, which almost always shows up, Murphy says. “It turns into a thing. I don’t know what kind of thing, but it turns into something,”
she laughs. “It turns into a gestational fest.” Murphy says that since she bought the dive bar five years ago, the Callahan’s community has become like an extended family. Most of players on the team have known each other for 20 years, and see each other every day. From bikers and babes to mechanics and Apple engineers, there’s room for everyone and anyone, she says. “Everyone does something completely off-the-wall different. We just wanted to do something that was fun,” Murphy says. “It’s a funny group of people, we have different lives, and then we just all meet here at the end of the day. We’re a dysfunctional, happy family.”

Watching Ford’s story unfold has been both inspiring for victims and incredibly nerve-wracking, Renda says, even when compared to other stories of sexual violence. On the one hand, here’s this woman on live television showing the courage to share her story of an alleged high school trauma in front of some of the nation’s most prominent politicians and journalists—knowing full well that her account will be met with eye rolls (and even some death threats) from conservatives who support Kavanaugh. It’s that last part, of course, that’s been difficult for victims, Renda says—watching a fellow survivor, with everything to lose, get criticized for speaking out about the sordid past of a man who has everything to gain. On top of that, there’s the very real possibility that the Senate could confirm Kavanaugh to a lifetime appointment to the highest court in the land. The FBI is finally investigating some of the allegations against Kavanaugh with a weeklong inquiry, but it’s unclear how thorough the investigation will be. Sen. Jeff Flake (R-Arizona), a crucial vote for Kavanaugh, called for the inquiry. The FBI has yet to interview several individuals whom the Democrats see as key witnesses. Experts estimate that between just 2 and 10 percent of sexual assault reports are false and 63 percent of sexual assaults don’t get reported at all. National pundits have mused in recent months about whether or not the #MeToo movement will go too far. Renda doesn’t believe there is a “too far” for the movement, given the harm that sexual violence inflicts on so many women, and plenty of men, too, she says. “And the LGBT community has been victimized at an exponential rate,” Renda adds. “We need to address solutions, and women shouldn’t have to worry about being safe.” Monarch Services is celebrating Domestic Violence Awareness Month for the month of October. Visit monarchscc.org for more information. The nonprofit’s 24-hour crisis hotline is 888-900-4232.

Slidertown
OCTOBER 3-9, 2018 | GOODTIMES.SC | SANTACRUZ.COM
Everyone knows Slidertown clothing. With familiar circular logos featuring Santa Cruz’s most beloved local spots, it’s like carrying a little piece of home. The Point is one of the best-sellers, but there is also The Hook, The Cove and West Cliff—each set to its own majestic sunset. Owner and artist Kevin Sousa says it’s all about the local vibe, even when the gear isn’t in Santa Cruz.
20
“Some people, they might not get it, the Santa Cruz localism,” he explains. “Locals are people who really will represent their town. If you walk West Cliff every night, or surf, or skate, you will want to wear a shirt that says and represents that. You’re proud of it, and that’s what makes this area unique.” Sousa routinely hears from people who see his work
in other places like Oregon to Maui. “It’s crazy how it travels like that,” he says. Sousa grew up an artist, but never really saw himself as selling paintings or drawings, he prefers a more tangible, practical and repetitive medium. “It’s always been a dream of mine to have a clothing brand,” he says. “As a young boy, I’d always want to buy t-shirts and things with cool graphics so I chose that out of personal preference and to see my work walking around is exciting for me.” Back in 2009, Sousa began selling t-shirts at local surf competitions, eventually approaching local retailer the Santa Cruz Boardroom to sell some of it. People loved the familiarity of the spots, and he eventually began selling hats, and v-necks, tank tops, and
stickers to more retailers around town. Though his work is popular and his sales continue to go up, the profit margin isn’t very high because of his comparatively small orders to mostly eastside retailers. Eventually he hopes to have new graphics, like Natural Bridges and The Lane, and says he wants to expand to the westside and eventually across the county. But to do that he will need to start filling larger orders and dropping his production costs. After contacting the Small Business Development Center at Cabrillo College, he was referred to the Santa Cruz Community Credit Union (SCCCU) to help him do just that. “SCCCU has helped me with a business loan and they have been wonderful, just really great,” he says.
“Besides being good at what they do, they are just really nice people and understood how I needed to make larger orders.” Sousa added that when they were considering his loan, some recognized his work and said “I have those shirts!” or “Those are great!” Needless to say, his loan was quickly approved. It is, after all, locals first.

HOMECOMING William McCarthy returned to the places he grew up in Santa Cruz County for ‘Rise.’
NOW YOU ARE FREE After a troubled youth in Santa Cruz, William McCarthy went on to tour the world with the Brooklyn band Augustines. Now he comes home to exorcise ghosts at the U.S. premiere of ‘Rise,’ a documentary about his remarkable life in music, at the Santa Cruz Film Festival “There’s a certain artifice to making a song. But there are certain things that go beyond artifice; there are certain things you can’t fake. And that genuine quality, that emotional honesty, that’s so evident from note one when Billy opens his mouth to sing. There’s no fourth wall. I mean, you are in there. He’s laying it all out on the table.” —John Schaefer, WNYC DJ, in ‘Rise: The Story of Augustines’
T
stayed there, but I think they didn’t want us to see this underbelly any longer, because my mother had gotten completely swept up in it. I feel bad, because my sister went to high school Santa Cruz, and she had PALOPOLI in to see my mom homeless. It’s heartbreaking to me.” His mother committed suicide; he would eventually lose his brother to mental illness and suicide, as well, just as Pela was breaking up. How he came to channel the pain around his family tragedies into the album Rise Ye Sunken Ships—and especially the breakout anthem “Book of James”—is the story at the heart of Rise. “It was difficult, because there were so many layers to the Augustines story,” says the film’s director Todd Howe. “You have a band that had a great record, and their live shows were undeniable, and there was a backstory to that record which had another couple of layers. When we made the decision to tell the story around the arc of the conception to the completion of Rise Ye Sunken Ships, I think that’s when it all kind of changed. Bill’s life story is part of that record, and the Augustines story really is from day one of Bill’s life.” Howe and McCarthy became friends while Howe was lead guitarist for the London rock band the Boxer Rebellion. “When I met Todd, he was on the crest of

he new music documentary Rise: The Story of Augustines starts with the Brooklyn rock band at the height of its success, appearing on The Late Show With David Letterman while riding a wave of acclaim and popularity after the release of the 2011 album Rise Ye Sunken Ships. But pretty quickly, the film takes Augustines frontman William McCarthy all the way back to his childhood in scenes shot around the places he grew up in Santa Cruz County. It was a trip he wasn’t entirely prepared for. “Oh my god, it was crazy,” McCarthy tells me by phone from London, where he’s just attended the sold-out screenings of the Rise world premiere at the Raindance Film Festival. “I grew up in Santa Cruz and Watsonville. We went back to my trailer park in Watsonville and found my trailer. It’s pretty weird
when you see it in the movie; I’m huge compared to this trailer. But when I was a little kid, I didn’t even know it was a trailer. I didn’t know we lived in a trailer park! I just thought everyone’s houses had BY STEVE wheels on them.” McCarthy speaks with a disarming mix of enthusiasm and glee that only adults who are still truly in touch with their inner child can manifest. It’s a quality that has fueled his best songwriting—first in the band Pela, which came up with the National and TV on the Radio in the early-2000s Brooklyn scene, and then with Augustines—allowing him to reach dizzying heights of confessional earnestness that connected with fans around the world. But reaching back to that younger self also has a lot of risks for McCarthy, who lays out the story of his difficult childhood in Rise: his mother struggled with schizophrenia and heroin addiction, which eventually led to her children being placed in foster homes. He and his brother James were relocated to Placer County. “What was weird about Santa Cruz in the ’80s when I grew up was it was sort of this beautiful mellow beach town, but it also had this really gnarly darkness to it,” says McCarthy. “They took me away because my mother ended up being a panhandler in Santa Cruz. We could have

his wave of success,” says McCarthy. “He’d been in this movie with Drew Barrymore [Going the Distance], and the whole premise of the movie was that Drew Barrymore and this guy meet at a Boxer Rebellion show. I didn’t really know anyone who had that going on with their band, so we had a lot to talk about. And then we toured together, and Todd was actually a really large part of getting Augustines going.” After Howe got married and left the Boxer Rebellion when he moved to the U.S. in 2014, he decided he wanted to make a documentary about McCarthy’s life—though he had no filmmaking experience whatsoever. “I woke up one morning, and that’s when it hit me: not only was it just a beautifully compelling story, but it had every element possible that would make it a great documentary, if I did it right and didn’t mess it up,” says Howe. “I made every mistake in the book, I learned how to make a film on this film, and I’m very thankful they had the patience to allow me so much time to make it.” Rise is also a fascinating look into the perils of being an indie rock band in the 21st century. Because of his close relationships with not only McCarthy, but also the other members of Augustines, Eric Sanderson (who had also been in Pela) and Rob Allen, Howe was able to elicit stark and compelling insights in his interviews. “They really did not hold back,” says Howe. “They all wear their hearts on their sleeve. It’s all out there.” What emerges is a portrait of a band that swings between desperation and exhilaration. There
are times (in the Pela years, at least) when they are selling out shows they can’t afford to get themselves to. There are people telling McCarthy that his songs saved their lives, even as he struggles to figure out if Augustines can afford to continue. But looking back, McCarthy believes the intensity of those times also made it possible for him to write songs like “Book of James.” “Whenever you’re doing art because you have to, when you’re doing art to survive, you’re getting so close to the essence of expression. Because it’s not, ‘Well, on the weekend if I get around to it, if I have some spare time, I’ll do it,’” he says. “It’s ‘I have to do this, otherwise I think a part of me will die.’ It’s a completely different energy. That song was written with that kind of energy.” It’s also what makes the band’s story so inspirational, says Howe. “I love the lyric ‘Let go of all your ghosts, or more will come around,’” he says, quoting the Augustines song “Now You Are Free. “And Bill also said that you can’t be married to struggle, you have to keep a little bit of yourself open to the possibility that you might get to where you always wanted to go.”
RISE: THE STORY OF AUGUSTINES will have its U.S. premiere at the Santa Cruz Film Festival at 9:15 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 6 at the Courtyard Theater at the Tannery Arts Center. William McCarthy and Todd Howe will be in attendance. For more information, go to santacruzfilmfestival.org.

ise: The Story of Augustines isn’t the only music documentary worth checking out at this year’s film festival; there are more than at any SCFF I can remember (Up to Snuff, Calm Before … The Rising Storm, Si-G, and I Can Only Be Mary Lane, to name a few). Of course, true to the festival’s patented eclecticism, there are interesting films across a range of genres and subject matter. Here are five you shouldn’t miss at the SCFF, which runs Oct. 3-7. You can find more info at santacruzfilmfestival.org.
AT CAPACITY A collective of 19 UCSC students put together this sobering look at the housing crisis in Santa Cruz from a myriad of angles, including the campaign for rent control, the tiny home trend, and the controversy over homeless encampments. 73 minutes. Thursday, Oct. 4, 2:30 p.m., Hotel Paradox Ballroom; Saturday, Oct. 6, noon, Colligan Theater.
BARBARA American audiences know Mathieu Amalric as an actor, for his roles in films such as Munich, The Diving Bell and the Butterfly, and Quantum of Solace (in which he played Bond villain Dominic Greene). But in France, he’s put together quite a career as a filmmaker, winning Best Director at Cannes for On Tour in 2010, and acclaim for his 2014 erotic thriller The Blue Room. He wrote, directed and stars in his latest, Barbara, which also features Jeanne Balibar as an actress taking on a biopic of a famous French singer. As she becomes increasingly obsessed with the role, Amalric as her director also seems strangely possessed by their project. 98 minutes. Friday, Oct. 5, 7 p.m., Corridor Theater.
DARK MONEY Forget Russian interference—this Sundance award-winning documentary, the opening film of the SCFF, couldn’t be more timely in its examination of how Americans are allowing untraceable corporations to buy and sell elections right here at home. The filmmakers will attend. 99 minutes. Wednesday, Oct. 3, 6 p.m. at Colligan Theater, with an opening night party at Hotel Paradox after the screening.
INDUSTRIAL ACCIDENT: THE STORY OF WAX TRAX RECORDS! In the ’80s and ‘90s, the Wax Trax label out of Chicago kept misfit kids everywhere entertained with some of the wildest and most out-there industrial and dark-dance bands around. This documentary tells the story of the label that raised Ministry, My Life With the Thrill Kill Kult, Front 242, KMFDM and so many more. Director Julia Nash and former Dead Kennedys/LARD frontman Jello Biafra, who’s featured in the film, will attend. 95 minutes. Saturday, Oct. 6, 7 p.m., Colligan Theater; Sunday, Oct. 7, non, Courtyard Theater.

The fifth annual downtown Comedy Festival paves the way for a new live comedy experiment in Santa Cruz BY WALLACE BAINE

N
o one who is paying any attention to the national political situation, or the gradual escalation of climate change, or the ever rising cost of housing in California is likely to believe that 2019 will somehow have more laughs than 2018. But, at least in Santa Cruz, one guy believes it. In fact, he’s going to make it happen. He’s the stand-up comic known as DNA, and for more than a decade he’s been doggedly working toward a goal that he hopes will finally come to fruition on New Year’s Eve: his own comedy club. This weekend, Oct. 4-7, DNA will preside over the fifth annual Santa
Cruz Comedy Festival, when once again almost every flat surface in downtown Santa Cruz will feature a comedian attempting to entertain a crowd. For those keeping score, that’s 60 comics at 11 venues, beginning Thursday, Oct. 4 with a kick-off party at the Blue Lagoon, and running through Sunday, Oct. 6 with a finale, also at the Blue Lagoon, featuring Comedy Central regular Kyle Kinane. After that, DNA will turn his attention to the opening of DNA’s Comedy Lab and Experimental Theater in the space formerly occupied by the Regal Riverfront Twin theater in downtown Santa Cruz. The Comedy Lab will not be a
traditional comedy club, says its future impresario. “That’s not really who I am,” he says. “I’m not the owner of the Bada Bing. I’m not that comfortable in that environment.” For months, DNA had been evaluating the retail property once occupied by Radio Shack on Soquel Avenue, a space that would have lent itself to a traditional comedy club. The former Riverfront Twin, by contrast, is an old movie house with one 400-seat theater and another 200-seater. DNA plans to use the larger space to host stand-up comics, locals and Bay Area comics as well as nationally recognized names. In the smaller room, he’ll bring in experimental and avant
garde theater productions. In past years at the Comedy Festival, DNA has staged the kind of offbeat theater/sketch comedy that he’s interested in bringing to the new venue. Last year, the festival included a staged representation of an old Twilight Zone episode, as well as DNA’s own original concept called The Last Late Night Show, in which a TV talk show grappled with impending planetary doom on the last night on Earth, “you know, just like the band playing on the deck of the Titanic as it sunk.” As examples of the kinds of productions he would be interested in, DNA pointed to a play about the life of rock star Alice Cooper or an
WEEK OF FESTIVALS McCann’s, the Kuumbwa Jazz Center and the Blue Lagoon. In its fifth year, the Comedy Festival has grown to accommodate more venues, including Pure Pleasure, Streetlight Records and, a first for this year, Bookshop Santa Cruz. Stand-up comedy is a relatively new art form that is experiencing a pivotal moment in its cultural history. The Lenny Bruce/George Carlin mode of speak-truth-to-power comedy has infiltrated the late-night platform popularized by Johnny Carson to create a chorus of latenight hosts with stand-up chops who have become central and influential voices in America’s ongoing political debates. At the highest levels, comics have attained nearly mythological rock-star status in American culture from the beloved (Robin Williams) to the reviled (Bill Cosby). At the same time, stand-up seems to be everywhere, particularly on the internet where YouTube catalogs the battalions of comics working the circuits and Netflix showcases comics who are working with innovative forms such as Bo Burnham and Hannah Gadsby. This expanding cultural power of stand-up comedy means that maybe young people are climbing on openmic stages with the same kind of frequency that they were forming bands a generation or two ago. DNA says that few art forms can provide the electrical charge of live comedy, and in an increasingly mediated world, audiences recognize that power. “There is an uptick in live entertainment right now, because people are hungry for the truth,” he says. “They’re hungry for something that is not adulterated, pre-packaged, homogenized, masticated for your consumption. Live comedy is raw. What happens is real. A live audience is the living organism of what’s going on in the room at any show. And being a part of that live audience changes you, I think, on a molecular level. I think it rearranges your brain on how you relate being part of a society. It’s great to watch stuff on your phone and on Netflix and all of that. But you’re not part of anything. You’re just alone having light shot into your eyes.”

all-female adaptation of Quentin Tarantino’s Reservoir Dogs. “We have a very strong theater community here,” he says, “but I don’t often see things to my taste, which runs toward a little more strange and weird.” As far as the stand-up comedy element goes, the Comedy Lab will attempt to takes its place in the Northern California comedy circuit, which includes Cobb’s Comedy Club or the Punchline in San Francisco, or Rooster T. Feather’s in Sunnyvale. Many of the comics who have performed at the Comedy Festival in recent years are vets of the Bay Area comedy circuit. “I think we can be a stop on that circuit,” says DNA. “When a big headliner comes to Cobb’s or the Punchline on a Thursday, Friday or Saturday night, we can probably get them to come down for a Sunday, Monday or Tuesday show. But every Thursday, Friday and Saturday, we’ll have shows.” While including brand-name comics when it can get them, the new club will mostly feature working comics that operate below mainstream awareness. As an analogy, DNA points to beer. “People really enjoy their microbrews. Sure, there are the national brands out there, but these smaller, uncommon brewers, they have their fans too. That’s the kind of comedy I like, the smaller names, the ones you haven’t heard of yet,” he says. “I’ll be bringing in the people you’ll hear about tomorrow or five years from now. Isn’t that exciting, to see someone early on in their career?” Additionally, the new club will give local would-be comedians a chance to showcase their material with occasional “Funniest Person in Santa Cruz” or “Funniest Person at UC Santa Cruz” evenings. “My motto,” says DNA, “is that I want to build community through laughter.” Before coming to Santa Cruz in the early 2000s, DNA ran his own club in Chico, bringing live comedy and other programming to a turnof-the-century vaudeville house. For more than a decade now, he’s been in Santa Cruz programming comedy in a number of venues including the Poet and the Patriot, Rosie

he Santa Cruz Comedy Festival has so much stuff in both volume and variety that it can be a bit intimidating to negotiate if you’ve never been before. But you don’t have to be a victim of what psychologists call “choice overload.” The culmination of the festival is Saturday night’s All-Star Showcase at the Kuumbwa Jazz Center. But there are a lot of other cool things, too. Here are five of the festival’s highlights. For more info, go to standupsantacruz.com.
The Comedy Festival and the Santa Cruz Film Festival collide in the form of this entertaining new documentary that offers a street-level view of the scruffy, bizarro world of Santa Cruz comedy and the misfits that populate it, written and narrated by Comedy Festival impresario DNA. “One thing you might notice,” DNA deadpans early on in the film, “is that cannabis is legal in Santa Cruz. Not only is it legal, it’s mandatory to get through the day.” If you’re curious about “barberoke,” or the corndog hustle in Santa Cruz, it’s a must-see. Friday, 9:15 p.m. Tannery Arts Center.
VEGAN COMEDY SHOWCASE To carnivorous snobs everywhere, vegans and comedy are two circles that never quite touch. But long-time vegan DNA ain’t havin’ it: “You know who can’t take a joke—it’s meat eaters,” he says. Testing that theory will be a number of meat-free comics including irascible New York Eddie “Bitter Buddha” Pepitone, who often makes Lewis Black look like a mellow hippie. Saturday, 8 p.m. Blue Lagoon. $25 advance; $30 at the door.

Bookshop Santa Cruz joins the list of venues for the Comedy Festival this year with this oh-so-literary evening featuring comics Alison Littman, Robert Berry, DNA and Keith Lowell Jensen, who will be discussing his new book Punching Nazis and Other Good Ideas, a collection of essays about his experience in the Sacramento punk-rock scene and his encounters with white supremacists and Nazis. Cue nervous laughter. Saturday, 5 p.m., Bookshop Santa Cruz, free.
PURE PLEASURE COMEDY If you’re not familiar with the wares on sale at Pure Pleasure, think twice before inviting your grandmother along for a shopping excursion. The Santa Cruz sex toy shop will be the site for a comedy show featuring (mostly) female performers, including headliner Emily Van Dyke, who says she’s not always comfortable in sex shops. “Do you have any bondage gear that billows?” Saturday, 8 p.m., Pure Pleasure, Cooper Street, Santa Cruz. $25 advance; $30 at the door.
COMEDY BRUNCH Even though it’s universally popular (who doesn’t like brunch?) the Comedy Festival gives its audiences an incentive to eat great food on a sleepy weekend morning, this time breaking bread with comedians. Watch out for the spit takes. Saturday, 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., Food Lounge, Santa Cruz, $5.

Motion Pacific organizes a live dance show to Marty O’Reilly’s dark new album ‘Stereoscope’ BY JACOB PIERCE
S
anta Cruz fixture Marty O’Reilly says that pretty much everyone who listens to his band’s new album Stereoscope for the first time has had the same reaction.
HOT TICKET
“They didn’t really get it,” he says. More often than not, though, fans of O’Reilly and his Old Soul Orchestra will say that they understand the new music better on the second listen. “Everyone that
loves it says, ‘Oh, I had to listen to it a couple times,’” O’Reilly says. “Or ‘Oh, I figured out how to listen to it,’ or ‘I figured out that I had to sit down and not do anything while I listen to it.’”
The new songs are more introspective than his previous work, and O’Reilly says that while writing them, he had to get comfortable with a different “level of vulnerability.”

The band will share the stage with local dancers, who have developed choreography for each of the 11 songs on the new album. <32 Members of the band
sometimes find it difficult to describe Stereoscope, or explain how it fits into their larger body of work. Chris Lynch, violin player for the Old Soul Orchestra, came up with an analogy to illustrate the album’s significance, but he’s unable to relay it with a straight face. Lynch has heard that in the realm of astrology, a person’s “rising sign” refers to how someone presents themselves in the world, whereas the individual’s “moon sign” describes who that person is on the inside, at their emotional core. The band’s 2014 Americana release Pray for Rain could represent the band’s rising sign, he says, while Stereoscope reveals something deeper. “This is like our moon sign,” Lynch says, before putting his face into his palm and laughing at himself. “But you know what I mean? It’s heavy. It’s genuine. It’s who we all are.” The songs’ lyrics are dark and emotional, and the music veers gently back and forth between bluesier, folksier and more rocking songs. There’s a melancholy vibe that pulses relentlessly through each movement, holding the whole collection together. The challenge for a band like the Old Soul Orchestra—a group with so much energy on stage—is translating its energy into the recording studio, which the band worked hard to do. That often involves laying down recordings when each song is fresh, and channeling as much energy as possible into each track. Some of Lynch’s solos feel so raw that you can almost hear his emotive wincing as he shreds the hairs on his bow. It’s fitting that an album that’s difficult to describe will soon be interpreted in front of a live audience by Motion Pacific Dance Studio, which is partnering with the Old Soul Orchestra on Oct. 11-13 for a threenight run of live choreography while
the band performs the entire album. O’Reilly and company have already toured in support of the album across both Europe and the U.S. The collaboration with Motion Pacific will serve as their local Stereoscope release. The group will share the stage with local dancers, who have developed new choreography for each of the 11 songs. The event will showcase an artistic exchange of passion and creativity between all of the evening’s performers, says Motion Pacific Director Abra Allan. O’Reilly and the Old Soul Orchestra already have set their sights on their next release, which may bring the band back to its Americana roots. This next project may involve laying down some almost-forgotten classics, like the stripped-down acoustic song “Going to the Country,” a personal favorite of mine. There isn’t a recording of it available anywhere, even though O’Reilly wrote it years ago. As it happens, the tune is also a personal favorite of Matt Goff, the band’s drummer, who didn’t even realize the song was an old O’Reilly original until after a year of playing it at Old Soul Orchestra shows. “Going to the Country” is no sure thing, as O’Reilly says that the band hasn’t decided how best to arrange it. But either way, the band’s happily diving back into their craft. “We’re going to take a step back toward traditional songwriting that feels folksier and more genrespecific,” O’Reilly says. “We’re returning to that world with a lot of tools we picked up from recording Stereoscope.” Marty O’Reilly and the Old Soul Orchestra will perform alongside dancers from Thursday, Oct. 11-Saturday, Oct. 13, at Motion Pacific, located at 131 Front St. # E, Santa Cruz. Tickets are $25-$35. motionpacific.com.

Shirley Lehner-Rhoades This month at Michaelangelo Gallery, Shirley Lehner-Rhodes shares her work “Painted Horses” inspired by the residents and rescue stories of the Duchess Sanctuary. The Duchess Sanctuary was established in 2008 as an oasis for formerly abused, abandoned, neglected, and homeless horses and is operated by The Fund for Animals in partnership with The Humane Society of The United States. The depth of detail and penetrating color in Lehner-Rhoades work gives us a glimpse into the world of these majestic creatures, once neglected and abused, now living out their days in the vast beauty of the Oregon State country side. Don’t miss these stunning paintings on display through October 28th.

PLASTIC WATER This two-day event starts with the bad and ends with the good. Day one lays out the “new normal” of just how polluted and poisoned our oceans have become, and looks at the problem through the lens of art.

LOVE YOUR
LOCAL BAND BACKYARD BIRDS
Jean Catino and her neighbor Linda Baker like to sing together. They met in the local ukulele scene, along with June Coha, who they also liked to sing with. The three women enjoyed singing together so much that they played a gig as a trio last May in Davenport as the Backyard Birds. It went so well that they quickly added Larry Prather and Linc Russin, and began playing more shows.
OCTOBER 3-9, 2018 | GOODTIMES.SC | SANTACRUZ.COM
“I don't think there was a big plan behind it. Every little development that happened day by day was like, ‘whoa, this is great,’” Catino says. “I've been around long enough to know that things don't necessarily last forever. I'm grateful for every new opportunity that we get. I don't think there was ever a long-range plan. But it's evolved really nicely.”
50
The group currently plays strictly covers, and does them in acoustic renditions accented by the gorgeous, multi-layered harmonies from the women. In terms of choosing songs, they look for obscure gems like “Going Back to Harlan” by Anna McGarrigle, “Emmylou” by First Aid Kit and “Reflecting Light” by Stan Phillips. “It was really about finding great songs that worked with our voices. The theory behind choosing songs is to try to find things that are not obvious—not necessarily well-known, but great songs,” Catino says. “It's more trying to give exposure to some of these great songs maybe people haven't heard, or haven't heard lately.” INFO: 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, October 10.

ELIZA GILKYSON “Dark comes down like a bird in flight.” So begins Secularia, the 23rd studio album by Austin-based folk musician Eliza Gilkyson. In her nearly 50 years of work, Gilkyson has twice been nominated for a Grammy Award, been covered by Joan Baez, and been inducted into the Texas Music Hall of Fame. And yet Secularia (which just came out this July) still sounds fresh— marked by soft tendrils of reverb, subtle orchestration and her effortlessly clarion voice. When dark comes down, Gilkyson is here to say she’s with you. MIKE HUGUENOR INFO: 7:30 p.m. Michael’s On Main, 2591 Main St., Soquel. $30 adv/$33 door. 479-9777

CHICK COREA When Chick Corea released his breakthrough 1968 album Now He Sings, Now He Sobs, he was joined by Czech bass virtuoso Miroslav Vitous and Roy Haynes. Almost exactly 50 years later, Corea, 77, is the ageless
master presenting one of his recent ensembles, Vigilette. Corea has always thrived in a trio setting, and this one ranks among his best. Distilled from the Latin Grammy Award-winning 2013 project The Vigil, the extraordinary combo features Cuban bassist Carlitos Del Puerto and drummer Marcus Gilmore, a standout talent on a scene overflowing with insuperable drummers.

THURSDAY 10/4 SKA
REEL BIG FISH Orange County ska band Reel Big Fish has been around so long that even its origin story seems dated. The group got heavy rotation on MTV with an ironic song about “selling out” to the evil major record labels. Does that sentence even make sense to someone currently under 30? Regardless, the band’s high-energy, goofy-meets-depressing ska-punk sound has served it well for the past 20+ years. Reel Big Fish has stayed on the road full-time since their initial
“Sell Out” moment and have packed clubs every year, no matter what the experts say about the state of ska in this beautiful nation. AC INFO: 9 p.m. Catalyst, 1011 Pacific Ave., Santa Cruz. $22. 423-1338.

CONOR OBERST AND THE MYSTIC VALLEY BAND Like a modern reincarnation of the Band, the Mystic Valley Band are a group of Americana mining tunesmiths whose playing feels near-symbiotically connected. They formed in 2008 to backup Conor Oberst on his solo debut album. On 2009’s Outer South, the members even managed to wrest the spotlight away from Oberst, who by then had already been drawing comparisons to Bob Dylan. Shows with the Mystic Valley Band have been rare this decade, so this is a don’t miss show. MH INFO: 8:00 p.m. Cocoanut Grove Historic Ballroom, 400 Beach St., Santa Cruz. $33. 423-5590

ROCK Everyone’s favorite Russian surf band is heading to Santa Cruz to invite one and all to get on the dance floor and “Smell the bacon/smell the bacon/

ALTERNATIVE
JARVIS COCKER Back in 1998, underrated brit-pop band Pulp released one of the bleakest rock albums ever. On This is Hardcore, lead singer Jarvis Cocker pondered the meaningless of life, the inevitability of death, and the inner lives of porno stars. In other words, it’s a dark masterpiece. Since going solo in 2006, his outlook hasn’t grown any brighter, but there is a certain whimsy to his solo career. You could almost call it a “fun” quality that to his fans might seem a few steps removed from the musically dense days of Pulp.

After a night with hell-raising southern rock sludge-trio Thelma and the Sleaze, you’re gonna feel a little scared, and a little excited. You’re also gonna wanna be just like them. Frontwoman LG feels like that’s what a great live band should do to a person. They definitely deliver with rowdy biker-dude-gone-feminist tunes that sometimes sound like Janis Joplin joined Le Tigre. So go ahead and dust off those daisy dukes, faux mustaches and pearl necklaces, because you ’bout to have a night. AMY BEE
show no signs of slowing down. Last year they joined other Summer of Love alumni at Golden Gate Park for the 50th anniversary show. MAT WEIR
In the overcrowded garage-rock revival genre, SoCal’s Growlers have distinguished themselves by inventing their own genre: beach goth. It perfectly encompasses the band’s surf, pop and garage-rock elements that are all sprinkled with a dash of darkness. They’ve so totally claimed this label that since 2012, they’ve been hosting the annual Beach Goth festival down in LA. Just recently, the band released its latest album, Casual Acquaintances, a collection of offbeat demos, b-sides and leftover tracks. Offbeat and leftover are kind of the band’s thing, so it just sounds like a regular Growlers album.

FILM
CHOP ’TIL YOU DROP Kristen Stewart (left) and Chloe Sevigny star in ‘Lizzie.’
All I Did Was Ax OCTOBER 3-9, 2018 | GOODTIMES.SC | SANTACRUZ.COM
Feminist view of Borden murders in artful, uneven ‘Lizzie’ BY LISA JENSEN
56
T
he dark, historical melodrama Lizzie is not for the squeamish. Granted, nobody squeamish would be interested in a movie about notorious accused axe murderess Lizzie Borden in the first place. Just be warned: we get to see (and hear) every one of those fabled “whacks.” But what’s more profound in Craig William Macneil’s atmospheric retelling of the tale (and more timely) is its somber portrait of patronizing male power and longsimmering feminine fury that lead up to the famous climax. It’s almost irresistible to assign a feminist slant to the story of a spinster accused of killing her domineering father (along with her stepmother). But while Borden was acquitted of the
crime at her trial, history is still unresolved about what actually happened on that sweltering August day in 1892. This encourages Macneil and scriptwriter Bryce Kass to submit a plausibly researched version of events as they might have played out, and why. In this, they are influenced by Chloe Sevigny, one of the producers of the movie (along with Kass), who also stars as Lizzie, in a project she has been trying to get made for years. History may not officially assign blame for the Borden murders, but Sevigny and Kass meticulously build a case for their candidate, while keeping the audience guessing right up to the end. Only a crawling narrative pace and repetitive last act mar the film’s effectiveness.
The well-to-do Borden family of Fall River, Massachusetts, is introduced through the eyes of heir newly arrived Irish housemaid, Bridget (Kristen Stewart). Stoic matriarch, Abby (Fiona Shaw) runs the household for her ironwilled husband, Andrew (Jamey Sheridan), who dabbles in real estate and manufacturing, and Andrew’s two adult daughters, Emma (Kim Dickens) and Lizzie (Sevigny). Unlike her tractable sister, Lizzie is rebellious at heart; she defies her father by going out to the opera unescorted, her only “respite,” she says, from Andrew’s tyrannical rules at home. Andrew’s tyranny soon extends to his possessive attitude toward Bridget, on whom he forces his
sexual attentions night after night. But Bridget finds a kindred spirit in Lizzie, who teaches the young Iris hwoman to read, and the two of them dare to become friends. But tension between Lizzie and her controlling father (he acts out against her pet pigeons when she displeases him) are further roiled by the arrival of slippery “Uncle John” (Denis O’Hare), brother of Andrew’s deceased first wife, into whose grasping, unreliable hands Lizzie fears her father is going to turn over management of the sisters’ large inheritance. In Macneil’s hands, it all proceeds like a horror movie—as befits these horrific events—but a slow, stately one, as the intense psychological drama unfolds. Large, sparsely furnished rooms are silent as the furtive camera peeks around doorways and down long, gloomy passages. Mysterious messages of foreboding are discovered throughout the house. Music is either sepulchral, or nervy and frenetic, designed to keep viewers on edge. But pacing finally becomes a problem. While each shot is artfully composed (kudos to cinematographer Noah Greenberg), way too much time is spent, say, lingering over fabric, buttons and lace (signifying, I suppose, how literally corseted the women are). When Lizzie and Bridget’s friendship blossoms into physical attraction, the pivotal moment loses some of its impact because the filmmakers can’t bear to tear themselves away—just as they spend a little too long inviting us to study the gruesome makeup job on one of the hacked-up corpses. And once the culprits are revealed, we return to the crime scene over and over again, from various viewpoints, while the audience grows more and more restive. It’s a frustrating hiccup at the end of a generally persuasive and thoughtful portrait of gender and power. LIZZIE **1/2 (out of four) With Chloe Sevigny, Kristen Stewart, and Jamey Sheridan. Written by Bryce Kass. Directed by Craig William Macneil. A Roadside Attractions release. Rated R. 105 minutes.
FILM NEW RELEASES A STAR IS BORN I know, I know, everybody loves Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga, and they sing their own songs in this movie blah blah blah. Here’s my bottom line: you want to complain about Hollywood making endless origin stories about the same comic book characters, and in general recycling plots over and over? They have done A Star is Born like five times. And it is always the same damn movie, all the way back to when it was Janet Gaynor and Fredric March 80 years ago. A. Star. Gets. Born. Besides, is it really going to get any better than Babs Streisand and Kris Kristofferson mildly heating up the screen in the 1976 version, supported by a young, not-yet-totally-nuts Gary Busey? OK, probably. But still! Directed by Cooper, starring Cooper, Lady Gaga, Sam Elliott and thankfully not Busey. (R) 135 minutes. (SP) MONSTERS AND MEN If you loved Blindspotting as much as I did, the premise of this latest entry in the Year of the Woke Film might remind you a lot of it—it’s set in the aftermath of the police shooting of a black man, and examines how different characters cope or fail to cope with the moral issues that the shooting creates. Directed by Reinaldo Marcus Green. Starring Chante Adams, Nicole Beharie and Cara Buono. (R) 95 minutes. (SP)
VENOM I’m confused—didn’t Venom used to be a bad guy? He certainly looks like a bad guy, especially with that freaky CGI and the latest version of Tom Hardy’s Evil Voice. I mean, I suffered through Spiderman 3 just like everybody else—Venom was definitely a bad guy! But here as portrayed by Hardy and a lot of gigabytes worth of
CONTINUING EVENT: LET’S TALK ABOUT THE MOVIES Film buffs are invited Wednesday nights at 7 p.m. to downtown Santa Cruz, where each week the group discusses a different current release. For location and discussion topic, go to https://groups.google. com/group/LTATM.
NOW PLAYING BLACKKKLANSMAN Based on the story of a real-life AfricanAmerican police detective who infiltrated David Duke’s Ku Klux Klan in 1979, BlacKkKlansman screams “comeback film” for Spike Lee in every way. From its cultural relevance in the age of governmentsupported white supremacists to the way it plays with questions of racial identity (as in Sorry to Bother You, an African-American protagonist has to find his “white voice”) to its showcase for his trademark mix of brutal truth and humor, this is the kind of joint Lee was born to make. Starring John David Washington, Adam Driver and Topher Grace. (R) 135 minutes. (SP) BLAZE Unless you saw the documentary Duct Tape Messiah a few years ago, or know a lot about the Austin music scene of the ’80s, chances are you’ve never heard of Blaze Foley. But if you’re a KPIG fan and ever wondered who Lucinda Williams’“Drunken Angel” was about, well, this is the guy. Foley was a close friend of Townes Van Zandt, who once said of him,“He’s only gone crazy once. Decided to stay.” Ethan Hawke wrote and directed this biopic based on Foley’s life and tragic death at age 39. Starring Ben Dickey as Blaze, and Charlie Sexton as Townes (!). (R) 127 minutes. (SP) FAHRENHEIT 11/9 No matter what side of the political “aisle” you're on, you'll come away from this
new Michael Moore documentary in a fighting mood. As usual, Moore is preaching to the choir, but his relentless drive to connect the dots between past transgressions and current crises and expose the bad guys is as revitalizing as ever — especially in this era of lockstepping conformity among the political establishment of both parties. It’s a scorching portrait of a nation on the brink of utter chaos. (R) 128 minutes. (LJ) HELL FEST Over the last couple of years, we’ve seen a new wave of smart, socially conscious horror movies make their way into theaters. This is not one of them! I mean, seriously, this is some old-school dumb horror movie shit! You’ll think it’s 1982 all over again when you see these soonto-be-dead teenagers stalked by a masked killer through a theme-park Halloween attraction. Directed by Gregory Plotkin. Starring Amy Forsyth, Reign Edwards and Tony Todd. (R) (SP) THE HOUSE WITH A CLOCK IN ITS WALLS There’s something gross about a kid’s movie being directed by the man who made the morally bankrupt Death Wish remake that came out earlier this year. Actually, there’s been a certain Eli Roth stink that seems to follow him from movie to movie for a while now. We’ll see how he fares with this adaptation of the classic YA mystery about an orphan who goes to live with his warlock uncle and ends up helping him battle a black-magic plot to end the world. Directed by Starring Jack Black, Cate Blanchett and Own Viccaro. (PG) 104 minutes. (SP) JULIET, NAKED Adapted from a Nick Hornby novel, and directed by TV comedy veteran Jesse Peretz, this is an amusing tale of a middle-aged music fan whose obsession with an obscure, hasbeen rocker fuels the plot. It's a wry divertimento for three voices: the obsessed fan (Chris O'Dowd), his neglected, fed-up girlfriend (a chipper and charming Rose Byrne), and the reclusive rocker himself (a frisky Ethan Hawke, rebounding from the gloom of
First Reformed), the fantasy figure whose unexpected appearance in the others' reality throws all their lives into comic turmoil. This isn't a weighty film, but sharp dialogue makes its pleasures consistently entertaining. (R) 98 minutes. (LJ) LIZZIE Reviewed this issue. Costarring Kristen Stewart, Fiona Shaw and Denis O’Hare. (R) 105 minutes. NIGHT SCHOOL As an actor, Kevin Hart has an impressive range. He can act excited, very excited, overly excited, angrily excited, unbelievably excited, and nervewrackingly excited. But now, for this comedy about a high-school dropout who attempts to go back to school and get his GED from an unorthodox teacher, he adds yet another dimension to his acting arsenal: studiously excited. Directed by Malcolm D. Lee. Co-starring Tiffany Haddish, Taran Killam and Keith David. (PG-13) 111 minutes. (SP) THE NUN It’s time to play everybody’s favorite horror-movie game show, Prequel or Sequel? This week’s question: If Annabelle was a prequel to The Conjuring, and Annabelle: Creation was a prequel to Annabelle, is The Nun—which is set after Annabelle: Creation but before Annabelle—a prequel or a sequel to The Conjuring? Oh, I’m sorry, it was a trick question. The Nun is actually a prequel to The Conjuring 2! Even more hilariously, you don’t even really need to have seen any of the previous four films going into this stand-alone spin-off that has a priest and a nun investigating the mysterious suicide in a 1950s Romanian monastery. Directed by Corin Hardy. Starring Demian Bichir, Taissa Farmiga and Ingrid Bisu. (R) 96 minutes. (SP) THE PREDATOR I loved the Bay Area band Arnocorps; all of their songs were based on Schwarzenegger movies and they had put together a bizarre band mythology that combined action movies, ancient gods and physical fitness. They seem to be gigging again, and I’m tired of explaining the same damn plot over and over again
with every new Predator movie, so instead I’ll just quote the lyrics of the Arnocorps song “Predator”: “There’s something out there waiting for us, and it ain’t no man … I’m here, kill me, come on, kill me, I’m here! Come on, do it now! Run! Get to the chopper!” That’s all you need to know, I swear. Directed by Shane Black. Starring Boyd Holbrook, Trevante Rhodes and Jacob Tremblay. (R) 107 minutes. (SP) A SIMPLE FAVOR A mommyblogger tries to uncover the truth about her best friend’s disappearance, while still explaining to you why you’re raising your kid wrong. Directed by Paul Feig. Starring Anna Kendrick, Blake Lively and Henry Golding. (R) 117 minutes. (SP) SMALLFOOT Hey, what if Bigfoot didn’t believe in us? Congratulations to whoever wrote this for getting one of the questions that countless stoners have mulled over turned into an animated kid’s movie! Stay tuned for the big-screen adaptation of “Maybe we’re all in a dog’s dream.” Directed by Karey Kirkpatrick. Featuring the voices of Channing Tatum, James Corden, Common, and Danny DeVito. (PG) 96 minutes. (SP) WHITE BOY RICK Matthew McConaughey plays the worst dad ever in this true story of Ricky Wershe Jr. (played by Richie Merritt), whose troubled home life in 1980s Detroit leads him to become a drug dealer—and then the FBI’s youngestever informant. That probably worked out great, right? Definitely not with a life sentence in prison or anything. Directed by Yann DeMange. Co-starring Jennifer Jason Leigh, Piper Laurie and Bruce Dern. (R) 110 minutes. (SP) THE WIFE Glenn Close gives what some are calling the performance of her career as a woman who accompanies her writer husband to Stockholm when he is awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for Literature. However, things are revealed to be much different than they appear on the surface as the truth about “the wife” comes out. Directed by Bjorn Runge. Co-starring Jonathan Pryce and Christian Slater. (R) 100 minutes. (SP)
SANTACRUZ.COM | GOODTIMES.SC | OCTOBER 3-9, 2018
PICK OF THE LITTER Documentary about puppies who are raised to be guide dogs for the blind, which is said to be “the ultimate canine career.” Geez, how do you think that makes the fire dogs with the spots feel? They’re definitely reconsidering their choices right now. Directed by Don Hardy Jr. and Dana Nachman. 81 minutes. (SP)
computer generation, he seems to be kind of an anti-hero, who maybe does good things, despite being partially controlled by a seemingly illtempered alien symbiote? Directed by Ruben Fleischer. Co-starring Michelle Williams, Riz Ahmed and Scott Haze. (PG-13) 112 minutes. (SP)

FOOD & DRINK with a crisp salad of bitter radicchios, salt crystals, shaved fennel and mixed apples with a tart buttermilk dressing. For pescaterians, the main course was albacore on a fresh shell bean ragout. For the rest of us came a memorable presentation of grilled lamb sirloin, sliced rare across a hearty bean and olive ragout. Avibrant Bandol accompanied this dish. Lamb and red wine, a celestial partnership. For dessert almond torte—simple, fresh, non-cloying—arrived with a bouquet of poached pears and strawberries. In every dish, care was taken to maintain the essential flavors and textures of the ingredients. Full, clear flavors of the season are a McNary signature. I expect additional new menu items to reflect the changes and deepening of the season. What we enjoyed at the new chef’s debut bodes very well indeed. Kudos to the kitchen.

Chef Tom McNary of Carried Away catering takes the helm at Soif BY CHRISTINA WATERS
S
oif was transformed into Santa Cruz’s cozy salon/ dining room earlier this week, at a dinner celebration to welcome Chef Tom McNary on board. The event was not only a chance for old friends to table hop, and for host Patrice Boyle to make the rounds, but also to meet some of the new Soif team, including Wine Curator Jon Bates and Bar Manager Matt Barron. McNary, well-known to the local culinary community as the longtime owner of Aptos’ Carried Away catering company, is in the enviable position of launching the next phase of
his career—back in the kitchen of a restaurant whose mission is simpatico with his own. Locally sourced ingredients, an emphasis on organics, and commitment to green strategies all these make owner Boyle and chef McNary ideal colleagues. The four courses served up showcased straightforward flavors, sensitivity to foods of the season, and beautiful presentation. No trace of menu trickiness. One of the fresh house cocktails—an elegant mix of raicilla (if you’ve ever been to Yelapa, you’ve tasted this agave-distilled spirit), Cascadia bitters, and house blended dry vermouth—arrived with
a tiny branch of lavender attached to the rim. Mixology is enjoying a renaissance at Soif, and this was a bracing and appealing cocktail. In the company of artists, growers, winemakers, and devoted town/gown patrons, we began with a delicious alliance between seasonal peppers and creamy house-cured cod, an update of the classic French brandade. Battered and fried, the “sausages” of whipped cod tasted sweet and rich on a tangle of various peppers, a slick of basil oil, and a topnote of aioli. The starter was well matched by a white Burgundy from Domaine des Gandines ViréClessé. The wine continued its magic
From Skyline Wine Cellars, an affordable line from Thomas Fogarty, comes a very appealing, unusual Artisan White 2014. Weighing in at $13.99 and 12.5 percent alcohol, this Riesling/Sauvignon Blanc blend is both rich and fresh with lime zest intensity. It opens with an old world muskiness before launching into bright lemongrass, chalk and a finish of something like geranium leaves. We have been enjoying it with salty, pre-dinner snacks. At Shopper’s Corner..
BEER OF THE WEEK
Congratulations to Watsonville’s Corralitos Brewing Co. and brew master Luke Taylor, whose Zoned AG Golden Raspberry beer just took a bronze medal at the prestigious Great American Beer Festival, considered by many to be the Academy Awards of beer. The Corralitos brew is listed as “fruited wood-and-barrel-aged sour beer.” I’ll drink to that!
WINEMAKER WEDNESDAY Come to Shadowbook to meet winemakers Pamela and Steve Storrs tonight, Wednesday, Oct. 3, up at the landmark dinner house at 1750 Wharf Road in Capitola. Complimentary hors d’oeuvres in the Rockroom Lounge with every flight tasting. Learn, sip, snack, and discover a new favorite Santa Cruz wine.

ordo Gustavo’s just upgraded from a market stall to a food truck a year ago, and now the team is ready to make things more permanent. Owner Austin Towne says he’s looking for locations to open a restaurant, a Tex-Mex joint with a full bar, if everything goes his way. This will come as welcome news for Gordo’s die-hards, who patiently wait in line at the farmers market every week for their smokey barbecue fix. Someone on Yelp summarized it beautifully: “I stopped going to church and just started going to Gordo Gustavo’s, because that’s all the church I ever need.” Preach. But good barbecue isn’t easy, and Towne is no stranger to working 90-hour weeks. He and his staff make everything but the bread and tortillas—all local, organic and super fresh. He casually lists off menu ideas like blue corn tortillas and tamales with brisket drippings instead of lard (*wipes drool off chin*). Someone please get this guy a nonmobile place to cook already.
A lot has changed since the Gordo’s market stall a few years ago, huh? AUSTIN TOWNE: Now it’s turned into something where people count on me to cure their hangover on
Sundays. Last weekend we were gone, and people hit me up like “hey really needed you this morning.” It’s funny, it’s such a silly path, and was so unexpected. We really enjoy it, that’s my biggest thing—even when we have rough days, we are still laughing and having fun. We have two flat-tops now with the truck, and much more space, which makes a big difference. Even with that space it’s still not enough; we are constantly moving forward. A new place is the appropriate move, but I’ve gotten used to being told no in Santa Cruz, so I’m being optimistic and have a few other projects going on.
You’ve got lots of veggie options, way more than you used to. In Santa Cruz you have to cover all of the bases to make things work. If it were up to me, I’d do true farmto-bowl, and break down one whole animal where everything gets used. What’s cool is the farmers market is its own community; I can see what’s coming into season and work with the farmers around. If I get to open my dream spot and do Tex-Mex, I know whole hogs won’t be for everyone, we’ll still have seperate vegetarian options, because that’s important here. Gordo Gustavo’s is at most Santa Cruz farmers markets. gordogustavos.com.

INFO ABOUT CORKS FROM PELICAN RANCH
Did you know that up to 10 percent of wines closed with a cork can suffer from a defect called “cork taint?” These unpleasant aromas, often described as moldy, musty and more, will ruin the character of a well-made wine, says Pelican Ranch Winery in Capitola, which often hosts educational gatherings— usually served up with their excellent wines and some delicious treats.

raciano is a Spanish grape that is grown primarily in Rioja and is very rare in the New World,” says Jeff Emery, owner of Santa Cruz Mountain Vineyard. “It is a low-yielding, aromatic and intensely flavored variety that typically provides a deep core of fruit and structure to blends. Our Graciano exhibits tremendous blueberry fruit surrounded by a zesty spiciness.” Made under his Quinta Cruz label, which Emery created to showcase wines from the Iberian Peninsula, this CCOF organically grown 100 percent Graciano 2012 ($28) is a delightful red wine treat. Emery says that even in Spain, Graciano is rarely bottled as a single varietal, so it’s fortunate we have winemakers like Emery who always go the extra mile to capture the essence of a certain grape in a bottle. The Graciano grapes came from Bokisch Vineyard in the Sacramento Valley, where Markus Bokisch, who has Spanish ancestors, grows climate-appropriate fruit. Crammed with intense black fruits, red cherries and red plums, you’ll think you’re in Madrid on your first sip. So, take the bull by the horns, as the Spanish do, and try some of this
Drink well. Live well. Stockwell.

H RISA’S STARS BY RISA D’ANGELES UNDERSTANDING LIBRA Libra is the charming and charmed one of the zodiac. They love peace and harmony and lightness. They can’t emotionally go too deep (unless their birth chart also contains planets in Scorpio). Libras are happiest having parties and having fun with friends in beautiful environments. Libras want everyone to be happy. They need calmness and tranquility. Needing to keep the peace, not wanting to hurt feelings, Libra can have difficulty saying “no.” Libras are natural peacekeepers with an innate sense of justice. They seek balance and harmony in all relationships. Libra is air (element), thus a thinking sign, both instinctual and intuitive. Libra, the seventh sign, is the sign of relationships. And they have many. Why? They are learning how to be in relationships, how to give and take (Aries is the opposite of Libra), how to balance self with the
“other.” Libra combines the “I & Thou.” The symbol for Libra is unlike other zodiacal signs (except for Aquarius—the glyph of electricity). Libra’s icon is not an animal. Libra is the scales (of justice, measuring, weighing, balancing). Often under Libra (and Sagittarius) we see Lady Liberty, holding the scales of Justice, her eyes blindfolded, representing impartiality, the ideal that justice must be applied without regard to wealth, power, or any other status. Libras are beautiful and artistic (Venus ruled) even if they do create clutter and chaos at times. That’s really the sign of an artistic creative mind. Libra’s charm gets them through everything, doesn’t it?
ARIES Mar21–Apr20
LIBRA Sep23–Oct22
A potent time of change is occurring. Strong desires and powerful emotions can act like ocean swells almost overcoming your ability to think. Alternately, they offer you courage to go where others, even angels, cannot. Tend to finances and resources held with another. Something’s expanding. Hopefully love and communication in relationships. Don’t be ruthless and don’t seek to conquer. Work always with.
You enjoy making, having and using money. Money is a resource, a way to help others. It provides freedom and choice. It can be used to create more wealth. We are given the gift of money and resources so we can help others. Money helps rebuild the lives of humanity in need. Tithe 10 percent of your income to those in need. The old-fashioned way of giving was the word “charity.” Tithing insures a constant flow of return. Is someone in the family in need? Always, for you, it’s good to be frivolous (a bit).

TAURUS Apr21–May21 You ponder upon your relationship in terms of love, sacrifice and usefulness. You encourage others to work and cooperate with you. Careful with your energy in relationships. You could create a separation through unaware tendencies, anger and harsh communication. On the other hand, there’s great ability to compromise if you begin a deep listening of other’s needs. Learn the art of negotiation and deeper cooperation.
GEMINI May 22–June 20 You become creative and strong with desires and emotions pushing you toward certain goals. It’s important to practice extreme care and safety, especially while doing any physical labor, lest accidents, falls, burns, cuts, things red and scratchy occur. Be kind to those around you. A lot of fire trucks, police and emergency vehicles pass by. Things filled with love, too. A bit like you’ve become. Remember patience gets you everywhere.

CANCER Jun21–Jul20
64
You need some pleasure, love and romance. Or, on the other hand, sports; competitive and disciplined. However, most likely you focus on thinking about home and children, showering them with gifts that nurture and nourish. In turn they may not be able to act as you need or expect. Their energies are high, fast, almost uncontrollable. This will pass. However, you must watch over them carefully. Allow yourself to be a bit foolhardy at times.

SCORPIO Oct23–Nov21 You find that strength, stamina and endurance grow stronger each day. They help in meeting and encountering unusual challenges along your path. As you pursue more independence, liberty and freedom, your self-identity slowly expands. Careful not to bump your head. Careful of fire. For fun, natural dye your hair red, orange or violet. Complete all projects. Plan your next ones. Your intuition reaches out to others.
SAGITTARIUS Nov22–Dec20 Your strength is hidden and veiled for a while. Only you are aware of it. Next to your strengths are desires. They’re secret, too. Sometimes you don’t know your motivation for choosing something. Sometimes you feel you’re in a conspiracy. Your past comes to brood over you. You wonder do you have enemies? To overcome this seeming strangeness, enter into a new creative endeavor. Know that you’re just in a state of completing karma.
CAPRICORN Dec21–Jan20 You have hopes, wishes and dreams and want to express yourself socially with friends and associates. You want to be part of a group that recognizes your gifts, and doesn’t think you’re scandalous when you make some unusual artistic move. You’re strong, at times revolutionary. Don’t change. Review goals. Create a manifestation journal. Write daily wants and needs, creative plans and how you see yourself in the future. I see beauty, materials and a book.
LE0 Jul21–Aug22
AQUARIUS Jan21–Feb18
The themes continue—communication with family, parents, tending to home, property, traditions. Creating your own traditions. Something seeks balancing concerning your perception of family and/or parents and making peace with daily life. The old anger doesn’t work or hold us anymore. It actually weakens the body. The starry energies are helping to beautify, repair and organize the environments you live and work in. Prepare your home for an unusual future.
You’ve become an adventurer, traveler, and philosopher. Justice becomes a focus. You see where humanity is caught in polarization, duality, judgment and despair. Aquarius is the sign of humanity. You worry, sensitive to humanity’s needs. You wonder where you stand. An excellent question. You benefit by traveling, undergoing change, moving about here and there. Gradually, you become a world server, serving humanity.
VIRGO Aug23–Sep22 You’re contemplating events in the past. Considering previous partnerships, lovers, friends. Careful not to intimidate yourself with critical thoughts. Gathering information should be very easy now. Allow a natural rhythm to occur with daily life, work, arrangements and plans. Begin to write Halloween (then Thanksgiving) cards by hand, using pen, ink, paper, envelopes, stamps and a secret seal you make yourself. This is a creative meditation.
PISCES Feb19–Mar20 A regeneration needs to occur, allowing a new sense of self-confidence to come forth. You sometimes question who and what you are. Wondering if you have real needs, hopes, wishes, desires, dreams. Your needs are very important. Pisces often serves others before serving themselves. You must now turn your energies inward and seek your own counsel, reliability, safety and trust. Entrusting yourself to your own self. The past presents itself. Then disappears.

ORDINANCE NO. 2018-12 AN EMERGENCY ORDINANCE OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA CRUZ ESTABLISHING A TEMPORARY MORATORIUM ON MOTORIZED SCOOTER AND BIKE SHARE PROGRAMS, ADDING SECTIONS 10.04.200, 10.04.210, 10.04.220, 110.04.230, 10.04.240, 10.04.250, 10.04.260, AND CHAPTER 10.70 TO THE SANTA CRUZ MUNICIPAL CODE IN ITS ENTIRETY REGARDING THE OPERATION OF SHARED MOBILITY SERVICES
real estate
THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SANTA CRUZ hereby ordains as follows: SECTION 1. Findings and Intent. The Santa Cruz City Council finds and declares that:
Action Plan goal to reduce in-town automobile trips 10% by 2020, and the policy framework of the current Active Transportation Plan, which was accepted by this Council on February 28, 2017.
1. Pursuant to Article XI, Section 7 of the California Constitution, the City of Santa Cruz (“City”) may make and enforce all regulations and ordinances using its police powers.
7. In fact, the City contracted with Social Bicycles, Inc., on July 27, 2017, to implement a bike share in the City, JUMP bikes. This contract with JUMP includes JUMP as the “sole bike share operator for the City of Santa Cruz” for a five-year term with two five-year options. It also includes a potential for a phased expansion from our current phase 1 levels (250 bikes) to phase 2 (500), phase 3 (750) and phase 4 (1,000). As such, the City’s transportation planning staff believes that the City has more than enough room in this contract to meet bike share mobility needs of the community while also having an effectively managed program that limits the downsides experienced in other cities in the U.S. and abroad.
A bicycle, tricycle, quadricycle or similar device with any number of wheels that is propelled by a motor with any type of power source and/ or by humans, that is designed to be shared by unrelated members of the public and that can be locked or secured from unauthorized use without being locked or secured to a bicycle rack or other object. This includes motorized bicycles or mopeds, as defined in Section 406 of the California Vehicle Code.
8. Thus, it is the intent of the Council to impose a temporary moratorium on any scooter shares and further bike shares in the City until the City has an opportunity to create a regulatory framework and ordinances governing the operation of scooter shares and bike shares.
A system of self-service Shared Bikes for hire in the City of Santa Cruz operated by a Bike Share Operator that offers to users a pool of at least 10 self-service Shared Bikes for use in the public rightof-way or on public property in the City of Santa Cruz.
SECTION 2. Sections 10.04.200, 10.04.210, 10.04.220, 10.04.230, 10.04.240, 10.04.250, and 10.04.260 are added to Chapter 10.04 “Definitions” of the Santa Cruz Municipal Code to read as follows:

2. On Thursday, September 13, 2018, Bird Rides, Inc., positioned dockless, motorized scooters in the public right-of-way/on public sidewalks in approximately thirty locations in the City, and allowed the public to rent these scooters via a smartphone application. Besides a same-day e-mail to the City Manager’s Office to notify the City that this had occurred, the company did not contact the City to notify it of its plans to drop these scooters or to have the City sanction its plans.

3. Cities around the state and country have seen the rapid introduction and implementation of such shared motorized scooter programs and businesses (“scooter shares”) as well as shared bicycles and similar (“bike shares”), and these cities have found it necessary to pass an emergency ordinance temporarily prohibiting any scooter share or bike share from operating within their jurisdiction due to safety concerns that the widespread use of these scooters, bicycles, and similar creates without permitting and oversight by local government.

4. Motorized scooters, as well as shared bicycles and similar, that are carelessly discarded on City streets, sidewalks, or other public right-of-way are a nuisance and can pose a threat to public safety and community. Further, motorized scooters, shared bicycles, and similar that are used on the sidewalks can cause safety hazards because they can travel up to at least 15 MPH. 5. However, a properly implemented scooter or bike share program can contribute to a community both as a short-distance transportation device and as an activity that stimulates economic vitality. A pilot program is needed for permitting and regulating scooter and bike shares, to give the City the opportunity to study and implement necessary precautions to curtail potential hazards presented by the widespread introduction of motorized scooters and bike shares to the City. 6. The City has already dedicated staff time to studying and developing a pilot program for scooter shares and bike shares that is congruent with the policy goals of the General Plan to increase multimodal mobility, the Climate

A quick recap: We’re talking about the recent shift, (see the recent SJ Mercury article “The Lull in Real Estate”) and all the changing conversations that are happening between agents and their clients. As the market heads into fall, there are noticeable changes afoot: more listings, more days on market, fewer multiple offers and many more price reductions. Since August 1st, the active inventory has jumped 25%! For a market with historically low inventory, that’s a huge number. What does it mean? Just another seasonal shift, or a harbinger of bigger things to come? No one knows. It’ll be another six months before there’s enough evidence for informed judgments. Unfortunately, real estate sales are trailing indicators. The market is always analyzed in the rearview mirror. For sellers caught in the throes of the recent “lull,” the change has been a shock. Especially since their aspirational pricing goals were formed six months ago when every house was seemingly selling quickly, with multiple offers, for more money. Anything less registers as a huge disappointment these days. It’s a testimony to how crazy the market has been that so many sellers are having such a hard time adjusting to the shift. It’s fascinating to see a little wave of panic set in when a home has been on the market for three weeks and there are no offers in hand! Agents who’ve seen a few market cycles come and go are dusting off their old chops about how the market works. Sellers don’t give much thought to that when their houses are flying off the MLS. They’re too busy handling multiple offers to dig any deeper into the inner workings. When things are going well, it’s simple. When the 1200 sq ft house down the street goes for two hundred thousand over asking with eight or nine offers, the logic is impeccable: “The market doesn’t lie! That house is worth every penny the buyer paid! My house must be worth fifty thousand more!” When the market isn’t performing up to expectations, even a remedial understanding of the marketplace seems to elude people. What was true then isn’t true now. Apparently the market does lie. “Why isn’t my house selling? Where are all the buyers? Why doesn’t someone just offer less?” Those are hard discussions to have, but necessary conversations for right now. The truth is this: The market is always an honest feedback mechanism. Sometimes the message is just different than the one you want to hear. Next Week: The five ways the market tells you the truth.

Occupation: Speech language pathologist Hobbies: Hiking, tennis, hanging out with friends, cooking Who or what got you shopping at Shopper’s? Probably Shopper’s back page Good Times ad. I immediately liked the feel of the store, the wooden floors… It’s my go-to store. I shop like many Europeans; I’m here picking up fresh foods every couple of days. I’ll stop by Shopper’s after work and it soothes my soul. It’s really relaxing for me to walk up and down the aisles — I think it’s the store layout and the staff which make it relaxing — and look at the wonderful produce and all the interesting items: local breads, gluten-free pasta and cookies, and the wines.
What do you like about the wines? Shopper’s selections are unparalleled! And the wine guy, Paul, is wonderful. He knows everything.We had lived in Oregon, and Paul stocks a favorite Oregonian wine for us. What do you like to cook? I enjoy making pasta dishes using Shopper’s olive oils and natural ingredients such as fresh herbs and greens — like arugula and dandelion greens. I make fantastic frittatas, soups, stews, and some creative seafood dishes, too. I used to think of cooking as work. I heard a neurologist speak to how cooking can be very brain-healthy. Ever since I’ve enjoyed cooking!
Is quality a major factor for you? Yes, it’s a top reason why I shop Shopper’s. Everything is fresh, even the lettuces.There’s a great range of local, organic produce — fantastic variety of mushrooms — superb local chocolates, salsas, coffees, and the widely-diverse spice department. I’m always happy to see Shopper’s busy, but it never feels over-crowded. I feel welcomed here, and the checkers are always friendly. I’ll watch the butchers work — you can tell they enjoy their job. People stop what they’re doing and answer your questions. It seems like everyone working here loves their job!
