OPINION

EDITOR’S NOTE RBG mania couldn’t have come at a better time. In an era when the national discourse can be downright depressing on a daily basis, our sudden collective obsession with Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has made politics fun again. And the Cabrillo Festival of Contemporary Music is giving us a reason to get excited for the Notorious RBG all over again this summer. The festival’s much-anticipated premiere of composer Kristin Kuster’s When There Are Nine, inspired by Ginsburg’s life, was the impetus for the “My Own Words: The Law and Legacy of RBG” event, which GT did a cover

TRUTH OF DUAL CITIZENSHIP

4

GT’s cover story “Wish You Were Here” (GT, 6/26) would be dangerous if an authentic immigrant from Mexico would be able to boast about the truth of dual citizenship (which is basically what the white “ex pat” and “author”) is blabbing about. Many of us have understood the beauty, merits, and community that exists in Mexico, but many of us have not had the white privilege to bounce from one county to another. A better and more important story would for a real journalist to travel to Watsonville to talk to people who are the real deal and who can offer real insight about what it is like to exist in two countries, who have labored day in and day out, and who are now subject to political scorn, hate and violence by this “so called” democracy. Dig a little deeper for local stories GT, we know you can do it, because stories like this are far from insightful. ¿Se Puede?

SHOCKING DECLINES Thank you for the recent article informing your readers about the impact of climate change on amphibians (GT, 7/3). While in

story about back in May. Now the main event is finally here, as the Cabrillo Festival kicks off July 28.

But what’s most interesting about Christina Waters’ cover story on the festival this week is that she goes beyond the flashiest RBG angle to look at how the festival is doing more than just talking about gender equality (the 2019 festival was conceptualized around the 100th anniversary of women’s suffrage) by actually investing in the work of women composers. And in multiple interviews with those composers, she then flips the issue around again by showing how what they’re bringing to the festival is about so much more than gender. The musical visions that will be realized this year are some of the Cabrillo Festival’s most exciting ever, and I think you’ll enjoy reading about them.

Belgium, I was chatting with a government biologist and was astounded to learn of the decline of flying insects in Southern France.

He told me there had been a 75% reduction over the past 40 years. Since then I’ve learned that nature is dying everywhere, but most of the media seems unconcerned.

Please make it a habit to inform your readers of what is going on. Unfortunately, rising tides and increasing storms look like secondary issues when compared to the collapse of life’s infrastructure. Food production will come under increasing pressures. Young people need to be acutely aware of how seriously climate change will impact their futures.

Andy’s Auto Supply, one of the oldest businesses on Pacific Avenue, will be celebrating a big anniversary on Sunday, Aug. 4—70 years after Andy Mekis first opened the downtown shop. The Mekis family is inviting friends and longtime customers to what it’s calling “a local old school afternoon.” Maple Street will be closed down, with custom cars and sepia-toned memories on display, while classic songs like “Little Deuce Coup” and “Mustang Sally” blast on the stereo.

Last month, California State Senator Bill Monning honored “Food, What?!” with the 17th District’s Nonprofit of the Year Award, prompting the group’s staff to join Monning in Sacramento for the annual California Nonprofits Day Celebration.

Watsonville-based “Food, What?!” is a youth empowerment and food justice organization that engages youth in relationships with land, food and each other. It uses organic farming, nourishing food and a caring community as vehicles to help youth grow.

I’m afraid of bees, because I’m allergic to them. I was a little kid and got bit, and my ankle swelled up huge and it was really scary.

Spiders are scary—too many arms, too many eyes. Sharks are cool to look at in an aquarium, but if they’re underneath me I want to be able to see them.

ROB BREZSNY FREE WILL ASTROLOGY Week of July 17 ARIES Mar21–Apr19 An Aries reader sent me a boisterous email. “I was afraid I was getting too bogged down by my duties,” he said, “too hypnotized by routine, too serious about my problems. So I took drastic action.” He then described the ways he broke out of his slump. Here’s an excerpt: “I gave laughing lessons to a cat. I ate a spider. I conducted a sneezing contest. I smashed an alarm clock with a hammer. Whenever an elderly woman walked by, I called out ‘Hail to the Queen!’ and did a backflip. I gave names to my spoon (Hortense), the table (Beatrice), a fly that was buzzing around (Fallon), and a toothpick (Arturo).”

According to my analysis of the astrological omens, Aries, you’d be wise to stage a comparable uprising.

TAURUS Apr20–May20 Welcome home, homegirls and homeboys. After observing all your homesteading in homes away from home, I’m pleased to see you getting curious about the real home brew again. I wonder how many times I’ll say the word “home” before you register the message that it’s high time for you to home in on some homemade, homegrown homework? Now here’s a special note to any of you who may be feeling psychologically homeless or exiled from your spiritual home: the coming weeks will be a favorable time to address that ache and remedy that problem.

GEMINI May21–June20

JULY 17-23, 2019 | GOODTIMES.SC | SANTACRUZ.COM

The world is full of eternally restless people who seethe with confused desires they don’t understand. Fueled by such unfathomable urges, they are driven in unknown directions to accomplish fuzzy goals. They may be obsessed in ways that make them appear to be highly focused, but the objects of their obsession are impossible to attain or unite with. Those objects don’t truly exist!

I have described this phenomenon in detail, Gemini, because the coming months will offer you all the help and support you could ever need to make sure you’re forever free of any inclination to be like that.

usual, and by wandering in the wilderness and seeking to recapture your lost innocence more than usual.

LIBRA Sep23–Oct 22 Although you’ll never find an advertisement for Toyota or Coca-Cola or Apple within my horoscope column, you will find hype for spiritual commodities like creativity, love and freedom. Like everyone else, I’m a huckster. My flackery may be more ethical and uplifting than others’, but the fact is that I still try to persuade you to “buy” my ideas.

The moral of the story: everyone, even the Dalai Lama or Desmond Tutu, is selling something. I hope that what I’m saying here purges any reluctance you might have about presenting yourself and your ideas in the most favorable light. It’s high time for you to hone your sales pitch—to explain why your approach to life is so wise, to be a forceful spokesperson and role model for the values you hold dear.

SCORPIO Oct23–Nov21 You are growing almost too fast, but that won’t necessarily be a problem—as long as you don’t expect everyone around you to grow as fast as you. I suspect that you also know almost too much, but I don’t anticipate that will spawn envy and resistance as long as you cultivate a bit of humility. I have an additional duty to report that you’re on the verge of being too attractive for your own good— although you have not yet actually reached the tipping point, so maybe your hyper-attractiveness will serve you rather than undermine you. In conclusion, Scorpio, I invite you to celebrate your abundance, but don’t flaunt it.

SAGITTARIUS Nov22–Dec21 The snow leopards of Central Asia crave a lot of room to wander. Zoologists say that each male prefers its territory to be about 84 square miles, and each female likes to have 44 square miles. I don’t think you’ll require quite that vast a turf in the coming weeks, Sagittarius. But on the other hand, it will be important not to underestimate the spaciousness you’ll need in order to thrive. Give yourself permission to be expansive.

CANCER Jun21–Jul22

CAPRICORN Dec22–Jan19

What would you say if I asked you to tell me who you truly are? I wouldn’t want to hear so much about your titles and awards. I’d be curious about your sacred mysteries, not your literal history. I’d want to know the treasured secrets you talk about with yourself before you fall asleep. I’d ask you to sing the songs you love and describe the allies who make you feel real. I’d urge you to riff on the future possibilities that both scare you and thrill you. What else? What are some other ways you might show me core truths about your irrepressible soul? Now is a good time to meditate on these riddles.

“I want to do things so wild with you that I don’t know how to say them.” Author Anaïs Nin wrote that in a letter to her Capricorn lover Henry Miller. Is there anyone you could or should or want to say something like that to? If your answer is yes, now is a good time to be so candid and bold. If the answer is no, now would be a good time to scout around for a person to whom you could or should or want to say such a thing. And if you’d like to throw in a bit more enticement, here's another seductive lyric from Anaïs: “Only the united beat of sex and heart together can create ecstasy.”

LE0 Jul23–Aug22

AQUARIUS Jan20–Feb18

Isaac Asimov wrote a science fiction story about a physicist who masters time travel and summons William Shakespeare into the present time. The Bard enrolls in a night school class about his own plays—and proceeds to flunk the course. Modern ideas and modes of discourse are simply too disorienting to him. He is unable to grasp the theories that centuries worth of critics have developed about his work. With this as a cautionary tale, I invite you to time-travel not four centuries into the future, but just 10 years. From that vantage point, look back at the life you're living now. How would you evaluate and understand it? Do you have any constructive criticism to offer? Any insights that could help you plan better for your long-term future?

Did you hear the story about the California mom who started a series of forest fires to boost her son’s career as a firefighter? She is an apt role model for behavior you should diligently avoid in the coming weeks. It’s unwise and unprofitable for you and yours to stir up a certain kind of trouble simply because it’s trouble that you and yours have become skilled at solving. So how should you use your problem-solving energy, which I suspect will be at a peak? I suggest you go hunting for some very interesting and potentially productive trouble that you haven’t wrangled with before—some rousing challenge that will make you even smarter than you already are.

VIRGO Aug23–Sep22

The heroine of Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass is curious, adventurous and brave. First, she follows a well-dressed rabbit down a rabbit hole into an alternate universe. Later, she slips through a mirror into yet another parallel reality. Both times, with great composure, she navigates her way through many odd, paranormal, and unpredictable events. She enjoys herself immensely as she deals with a series of unusual characters and unfamiliar situations. I’m going to speculate that Alice is a Pisces. Are you ready for your very own Alice-in-Wonderland phase? Here it comes!

The coming weeks will be a favorable time for you to buy yourself toys, change your image for no rational reason and indulge in an interesting pleasure that you have been denying yourself for no good reason. In addition, I hope you will engage in at least two heartto-heart talks with yourself, preferably using funny voices and comical body language. You could also align yourself gracefully with cosmic rhythms by dancing more than usual, and by goofing off more than

ONLINE COMMENTS RE: NUZ ON RECALL This Good Times article contains biased snark. I agree that Republicans as a group make decisions that are callous.

But by pointing out that Republicans can be shitbags, it’s as if you’re saying the “opposite” is automatically laudable? That’s just stupid. Drew Glover lied about there being no drug use at the Ross camp, and

five people died on the premises. I consider myself to be very far left. Glover and this article are embarrassments to the group.

RE: EXPATS Terrific article about Janet, and women moving abroad. Even better was the inverted perspective on living in the U.S. Just as the U.S. needs to widen its global vision, the rest of the world needs to stop thinking of the U.S. as the only repository for the American Dream.

Fear and Now

Santa Cruz on high alert after threat of ICE raids BY NATALYA ESTRADA

I

t’s Friday night on the steps of the Santa Cruz Courthouse, and close to 200 people are standing in solidarity with the local immigrant community and those at detention camps along the U.S.Mexico border.

For Tina Gomez, the gathering is a helpful way for immigrants to feel supported in smaller communities.

“The vigil opens minds, and hopefully unites us Latinos together.

It’s important to take a stand and be present,” Gomez says. “I’m glad that they had this here, so at least I can take a stand. This [treatment] is wrong. They treat animals better than they treat these children.”

The July 12 vigil was part of a nationwide movement called Lights for Liberty, which advocates to “close the camps” where undocumented immigrants are being held in federal detention centers.

A similar rally happened at the Watsonville Plaza at the same time.

At the vigils, groups like Santa Cruz Indivisible, Your Allied Rapid Response (YARR) and the Santa Cruz County Immigration Project provide support and information on legal rights and services. Members of the Santa Cruz Dreamer Project, like Blanca Cortez and her daughter, pass out flyers and information about the Rapid Response Hotline.

Undocumented community members can call the number to find out if Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents have been spotted in the area. Community members can also call to report ICE sightings.

“I’m a mom, so I feel like this is important not just for me but for my daughter to attend,” Cortez says. “I plan to do more activism, and we both plan to be more involved. It’s a reminder to my daughter about how lucky she is, and how to support others.”

After she gave away all of her bees this past spring, the grief hit Donna Gardner hard. “I spent at least the first two weeks crying and not sleeping at night,” she says of her abrupt end to beekeeping.

For eight years Gardener had carefully cultivated hives in the yard behind her Sunnyside Avenue home, and she’d grown to appreciate the inner workings of honeybee civilization. Each hive had one queen and a few male drones, plus the mortuary bees to remove corpses and housekeeping bees to keep the hive clean. Certain bees tend to the queen, while others take care of the larvae or stand guard to keep out intruders. There are also forager bees that leave in search of pollen or nectar, then return to the hive to do what’s called a “waggle dance” for their fellow workers, providing directions to the location of some flowers in relation to the sun.

“If you ever watch bees going in and out of their hive, it’s mesmerizing. It’s so calming. I love coming home on a warm day, and you can smell the honey, and you can smell the propolis, and it smells really good.

I miss that,” says Gardner, who used to give neighbors jars of honey made possible by the neighborhood’s flowers.

But now her hives are wrapped up in the city’s red tape—maybe for good.

Gardner believes the trouble started one day when the bees in one of her three hives started getting aggressive. Although her hives faced away from the street, they were only 5 feet from the sidewalk. She says her husband Tom came home from work early, put up a sign saying that their bees were angry, and stood watch, imploring people to walk down the other side of the street. Gardner called a beekeeper friend who picked up the hive that night after the bees went to sleep and brought it back to his property. Gardner says two people, including a neighbor, got stung that day.

It wasn’t long after that incident that the Gardners got a notice in the mail telling them that they were violating city law.

cities identified in news reports— have been on edge since President Trump announced that immigration raids would start this past Sunday.

“They’re going to take people out, and they’re going to bring them back to their countries, or they’re going to take criminals out, put them in prison or put them in prison in the countries they came from,” Trump said on Friday. The raids were expected to take place over the course of several days.

Although cities listed so far don’t include less-populated areas like Santa Cruz, Doug Keegan, program director and attorney at the Santa Cruz County Immigration Project, advises immigrants with vulnerable statuses to be on high alert.

“It sounded to me like they were targeting larger cities like San Francisco or Los Angeles, but there could be some spillover in our area,” Keegan says, reminding people to be careful about going out in public.

“ICE is really going after low-hanging fruit. People need to understand that they need to take common-sense approaches to protect themselves.”

Keegan estimates that close to 70% of Watsonville residents have at least one undocumented person living with them.

ICE has not said whether any agents are present in the Santa Cruz region. Agency Spokesperson Paul Prince, representing the San Francisco and Northern California region, reports that 2,327 arrests were made between January and March of this year throughout the state, and 1,245 individuals were deported during those three months.

Research last year by UCSC Professor Regina Langhout showed that the detrimental effects of deportations extend beyond the individuals detained, impacting families and the community at large.

The study found that family members left behind can suffer multiple psychosocial consequences, and that

separation of a child from a parent due to a deportation is associated with economic hardship, housing instability and food insecurity.

Valeria*, who lives undocumented in Santa Cruz, says her husband was detained by ICE last month and is currently in custody.

“It’s difficult for my children and I, who don’t get to see him,” she says.

“It’s really emotional. We have a lot of problems since he was taken.”

Her family’s uncertainty grows as money becomes tighter and food becomes scarce. Valeria picks fruit from 6 a.m. to 4 p.m., and says she still does not have enough money to pay next month's rent, let alone support her children. That reality could leave her with difficult decisions to make should her husband get deported to Mexico.

“We want to stay here. It’s better here for my children. There’s better education, better opportunities and a better life for us here,” Valeria says, adding that they have no real >14

NUZ WIRE NEWS When PG&E starts shutting off power lines this summer in high-wind events, the electricity could be down for up to five days in an effort to prevent wildfires. It’s a pain for us customers. But PG&E won’t care, because it’s cheaper for investors than making needed upgrades. A recent Wall Street Journal investigation found that the utility’s transmission towers are an average of 68 years old, even though their average life expectancy was 65 years, and the company hasn’t been regularly inspecting infrastructure. For information on how to prepare for outages and receive shutoff notifications, visit pge.com.

Over the last 10 years, California experienced 4,300 outages—more than any other

U.S. state—affecting more than 22 million Californians, according to Eaton’s annual Blackout Tracker. Homeowners who’ve been prudent enough to install solar panels may be off the hook, but only if they have a home battery handy. According to California government data, 7,700 homes in Santa Cruz County now have solar.

The San Francisco-based PR firm Edelman reached out and helped compile this data, even offering to connect Nuz with its client Sunrun, which makes a revolutionary home solar battery that—blah, blah, blah, all right, this isn’t an advertisement.

RARE OPPORTUNITY Retired auditor Dave Lane is buying downtown Santa Cruz’s Surfrider Café, which he plans to

rename Kind Brewery. Lane, who finished last in last year’s Santa Cruz City Council race, says he’ll expand beer offerings, in part by installing a new microbrew system and 10 more taps. He adds that he’ll keep the beerand-burger joint’s menu mostly the same.

Let’s hope so, or else customers are sure to grill, burn and roast him to a temperature even hotter than voters did in 2018.

ARM IN FARM Local birdwatcher Jonathan Franzen, who also happens to be a New York Times best-selling novelist, will give the keynote speech at an upcoming Homeless Garden Project farm-to-table dinner. The Boulder Creek resident apparently enjoys looking for birds at the Westside garden,

which will host a Sustain Farm Supper with dishes from four local chefs for $150 a head.

More information’s available at homelessgardenproject.org.

The age-old question for HGP’s own homeless garden project remains: “Will they ever find that poor garden a home?”

For more than 20 years, the plan has been to move it to Pogonip, a Santa Cruz park. But over the past couple of decades, that plan has hit more bumps than a tractor on a backcountry road. The latest hitch has been the revelation that, back in the day, ol’ Pogonip Club members used to shoot clay pigeons, prompting the city to begin an environmental review to study how much lead contaminated the soil. The organization’s leaders are still eager to get planted, hopefully in 2021.

POLLEN IN LOVE Tom (left) and Donna Gardner didn’t know about a $1,500 permit fee to become a beekeeper in Santa Cruz.

JULY 17-23, 2019 | GOODTIMES.SC | SANTACRUZ.COM

STRANGER STINGS <11

hives must be at least 20 feet from the property line, and that residents may have no more than two hives. Additionally, each beekeeper is required to obtain a permit.

The cost of each permit, Gardner would learn, was more than $1,500.

By the time a notice of violation arrived in the mail, Gardner was down to just one hive. Another one of her hives had gotten aggressive, so she gave it away. The notice warned her to take “remedial action” and get rid of the hive, or else she would get fined. She gave the last hive away. So Gardner was surprised earlier this month, when an invoice still arrived from the city for $615 or $738—it wasn’t clear which— for costs associated with the inspection.

The cost of appealing the fee is steep enough that she wonders whether there’s any point in bothering to file one.

Bees play an important role in ecosystems around the world. Researchers have found that one-third of crops require help from pollinators like bees in order to grow. With bee populations falling, environmentalists have begun to panic.

But there’s some disagreement over the importance of honeybees in particular.

Although several bee species have landed on the endangered species list, the honeybee is not one of them.

After learning about the regulations, Gardner searched the city’s website for a permit, only to learn that it wasn’t available online. She stopped by the Santa Cruz Planning Department, where Gardner says the planner needed her help to actually track down the permit, reinforcing her view that the requirement is an arcane frivolity.

Ralph Dimarucut, a management analyst with the city of Santa Cruz, says he can appreciate that sense of frustration.

He says the feedback is helpful and promised to pass it along. “We just want to make it as easy as possible,” he tells GT. In general, it does not appear that many bee hives are getting tagged. Santa Cruz Planning Director Lee Butler says there have been three instances where bee hives were hit with notices of violation since 2010.

Embarking on a new mission to convince the city to loosen its bee rules, Gardner enlisted the help of her neighbor Nicki Nelson, a lawyer. Together, they crafted Gardner’s dream ordinance.

Gardner is suggesting changes including and end to city fees, and that a hive need be only 6 feet from the property line. Nelson says that since looking into the issue, she’s found Santa Cruz’s bee ordinances to be far stricter than other communities nearby.

Nelson and Gardner reached out to City Councilmember Drew Glover, who founded

Project Pollinate, an advocacy organization focused on preserving pollinators. They set up a meeting later this month with Glover, who says he first learned about cumbersome restrictions from the Santa Cruz Bee Guild.

“The question is, ‘Why is the city putting up barriers or making it more difficult?” asks Glover, who says he hadn’t brought up the issue at the city yet because he’s been focused on topics like homelessness.

Butler says the planning department has a plan to update its beehive regulations, although that item doesn’t have a specific timeline. “It’s in the queue,” he says.

Gardner is eager to start a community discussion about pollinators. She also hopes she gets the opportunity to be a beekeeper again.

“This was my teeny, tiny, little thing that I felt like I could do for good,” she says.

“And the benefit was I got honey.”

family elsewhere. “We are alone.

We don’t have enough money or resources. Most of our lives are here, and we can’t just leave.”

Valeria has considered speaking to immigration lawyers, but she says there are few services in the area, and that she doesn’t have money to pay a lawyer. She was told that her husband is being held in San Luis, Arizona, but hasn’t been able to speak with him since his arrest.

Prior to recent immigration raids, California Gov. Gavin Newsom released a video on Twitter telling immigrants they have the right to be careful before opening the door.

“I just want to say, folks that are anxious about a knock on the door, when we talk about knowing your rights, ‘No abras la puerta.’ Without a warrant, you don’t have to open the door. You have the right to due process. You have the right to legal representation,” Newsom said.

Local law enforcement in both the county and city of Santa Cruz have refused to cooperate with ICE under most circumstances. As reported by GT in 2018, Santa Cruz County Sheriff Jim Hart wrote to then-state Senate President Pro Tem Kevin de Leon that “fear of detention, deportation and family separation” was bad for public safety, undermining trust in law enforcement. After the passage of California’s Sanctuary State Bill, Hart, who oversees the jail system, stopped cooperating with ICE altogether.

The Santa Cruz Police Department (SCPD) participated in a controversial 2017 federal anti-gang operation, in which some immigrants were arrested because of their immigration status.

SCPD has since outlined its official immigration policy, stating that an individual’s immigration status “is not a matter for police action,” and that local and state agencies do not have authority to enforce national immigration laws.

It also mentions that “officers shall not dedicate department time or resources to the enforcement of federal immigration law where the only violation of law is presence in the United States without authorization or documentation.”

SOCIAL MOVEMENTS Cabrillo Festival’s Music Director Cristian Măcelaru wanted a historic theme for this year: the 100th anniversary of women’s suffrage. PHOTO: RR JONES

F

rom the opening salvo honoring Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg to a sustained series of premieres by women composers and performers from across the globe, this year's Cabrillo Festival of Contemporary Music will explore the leading edge of new music, weaving words and lives through experimental musical forms.

In conceptualizing the 2019 festival, which runs July 28 Aug. 11, Music Director Cristian Măcelaru says he wanted a special focus, a historic inflection for the festival. He discovered one in the 100th anniversary of women’s suffrage in the United States. “We threw around ideas. We wanted to tell an inspiring story,” he says, “and women’s suffrage, achieved

100 years ago in 1919, looked like a great way to tell the story of equality, and of making a better society.”

Ruth Bader Ginsburg was “the perfect role model,” the festival’s conductor says. “Somehow the arrows all pointed toward her—and this was way before all of the recent publicity around Justice Ginsburg,” Măcelaru points out.

He met with composer Kristin Kuster, and her collaborator and librettist Megan Levad. “Then Jamie Barton came to mind,” he says. “Jamie is a close friend, and she had sung at the Supreme Court at Justice Ginsburg’s request.”

The last challenge was to find “a vocal ensemble that was the equivalent of our great orchestra.”

And what came to mind was the

vocale ensemble and orchestra, this year’s festival offers a larger-thanever landscape of work created by women.

“There are more opportunities for women in music now,” says Măcelaru, who was recently appointed Chief Conductor of the Cologne-based WDR Sinfonieorchester. “I see a conscious effort in the music

industry to find a balance of all genders.”

But he insists that festival invitees weren’t chosen simply because they were women.

“Our composers and performers were chosen because they were interesting,” says Măcelaru. “It just happens that they were women. I looked for how beautiful the music was and what statement it made.

And it was all ending up to make a more balanced world.”

In order to understand the musical world that this year’s festival will build, I spoke to several of the composers about the works they will bring to the Cabrillo Festival of Contemporary Music next week.

almost-uncategorizable ensemble A Roomful of Teeth.

The end result is When There Are Nine, which Măcelaru says “will tell the story of Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s achievements in a new way, in a way based upon her own thoughts and statements.”

NINA YOUNG ‘Agnosco Veteris’ (West Coast Premiere) Friday, Aug. 2 Young’s orchestral work was commissioned by Robert Spano and the Aspen Music Festival, and interweaves distinct but partnered memories from Virgil’s Aeneid and Dante’s Divine Comedy.

How can the non-composing listener understand your music? How would you describe your work?

NINA YOUNG: I’m a sound composer.

I’m a violinist and an engineer, so for me composing is about putting things together. I want to make immersive worlds that draw you in.

People can gain traction with the work if they try to find their own story within it.

Tell us about your creative process with this piece.

Agnosco Veteris, created in 2015, is very rooted in melody and harmony. Based upon a passage in Virgil’s Aeneid about grief and memory. The Trojan hero Aeneas has rekindled something in the grieving Carthaginian queen Dido—a flame. The title means, “I recognize the traces of an ancient fire.” Dante brings this quote back into the

Divine Comedy, in his spiritual quest through symbolism. My piece draws on antiquity, mythology, Eastern European mysticism—a postmodern mish-mash, all together—as if they might have composed it in antiquity.

I made imaginary music from a time before, a time long ago.

How is it structured?

While episodic in construction, Agnosco Veteris is divided into three large sections. Part one, the “Music of Before,” presents the thematic source material, or sonic memories.

Part two, the “Music of Ritual,” is a static reflective checkpoint during which the listener can consider the musical recollections that came before. Part three, the “Music of After” is characterized by energetic renewal and presents a reconfigured collage of the musical material.

What are you working on now?

I get bored easily [laughs]. I like writing for people I love. I have a lot of work now. Three big orchestra pieces, one for the New York Philharmonic.

Writing for orchestra takes a long time. I’m influenced by Renaissance music. I really do love Renaissance polyphony, anything with bells, probably because I come from a Russian Orthodox tradition. And spectralism. Gerard Grisey was a huge influence on me, and Kaija [Saariaho] is my superhero. I also love American minimalism, Michael Gordon and David Lang. Especially David Lang [a Pulitzer Prize-winner, and—with Gordon—co-founder of the Bang on a Can post-minimalist music collective]. There’s a famous Stravinsky quote, “Good composers borrow, great composers steal.”

HANNAH LASH ‘God Music, Bug Music’ (West Coast Premiere) Saturday, Aug. 10 Lash’s piece, a canonic exploration in two movements, was scored for percussion, piano, harp, and strings, and received its world premiere in 2012 by the Minnesota Orchestra.

What do you think about the abundance of women composers and soloists this year?

It’s unfortunate that people genderize—it’s terribly

Do you currently perform on the harp as well as compose for it?

Yes. Being a harp soloist is half of my career. I recently completed a harp double concerto for the Seattle Symphony. I’m currently developing a chamber orchestra piece. A large part of my schedule is also performing the repertoire—Debussy, for example—as well as my own compositions.

What is your process?

I begin by using my ears. Imagining the sounds. Then I sketch by hand, and finally I move to an instrument, the piano.

What do you see in the future for New Music?

I am afraid that the idea that new music is non-melodic or difficult

How would you describe this work?

HANNAH LASH: There are two movements, each using the same cell of five notes, though very differently. In God Music, this cell rages in the brass before it infiltrates the rest of the ensemble, and the movement culminates in rhythmic unison for the whole orchestra. In Bug Music, the motif is expressed canonically in a chamberlike setting, slowly swarming its way into all the instruments, finally reaching full saturation: a breakdown of the canonic structure into a fully chromatic cluster.

limiting. There really is no set of characteristics that denote “women’s music.” The fact that we’re conscious of a need for equal representation is great. But to break an art form into gender categories diminishes the work.

Did the historic significance of the title ‘When There are Nine’ inflect your compositional tone and style?

KIRSTIN KUSTER: The most significant influences on my writing for this piece were RBG as an icon, and Megan Levad’s poetry/libretto.

Megan’s writing is extremely athletic and nuanced, and she has beautifully captured the significance of When

There are Nine as her words unfold throughout the nine movements.

Megan references Justice Ginsburg’s writings and important legal opinions, and she weaves and spins an overarching narrative of how significant RBG’s presence and lifetime of work is for our culture.

How did you begin composing for voice and chorale?

This piece is a mere pile of notes without Megan’s words. Having the sounds of both soloist Jamie Barton and Roomful of Teeth’s immense color palettes and sonic versatility was a tremendous gift.

They are unspeakably great! I felt a real freedom to write sounds

that are sometimes complex, while sustaining the meaning and poignancy of Megan’s words.

Did Megan send you the nine poems around the life of RBG and pivotal issues in her career?

Megan and I have written a lot of pieces in collaboration. I came up with the idea for the title, and having nine poems. We exchanged articles and interviews featuring RBG. Then Megan went to work. The minute I read her words, I heard music—immediately.

What were the special pleasures—and challenges—of making this piece?

The entire process has been a pleasure. I love working with Megan.

I love the sounds of Jamie and Roomful of Teeth. I love the Cabrillo Festival orchestra. My primary

challenge was to keep from making this big piece even longer!

You’ve written about strong women, inspired by strong women—Marin Alsop has been a mentor and leader in opening up the musical field to more women. Many women consider RBG a superhero. Did you channel some of that same energy when you approached this world premiere festival commission?

While writing, I felt the strength of every strong person who identifies as female whom I’ve known—my mother, my sisters, my friends, my colleagues, my friends’ children, our students, artists, musicians, writers, thinkers, and athletes whose work I admire. My hope is that this piece will serve as a thankyou note to all of our women.

ANNA CLYNE ‘DANCE’ cello concerto, (World Premiere) Saturday, Aug. 3 Festival. It’s a chance to hear the other composers, which is so very inspiring. And the orchestra! Very accurate orchestral performances.

It’s a wonderful community.

How would you describe this concerto?

It was initially inspired by Rumi, the 13th-century Persian poet and Sufi mystic. The piece is short, involves repetition, a clear form of five lines, and a strong physicality—the five movements according to the five lines of the poem. People will find more diversity in it than Within Her Arms, which was performed at the festival four years ago. It’s more dynamic, not as tender. This concerto is a real challenge. You have to be mindful of the balance, especially with a low instrument like the cello.

What are you working on now?

Right now, I’m working on a 15-minute piece inspired by Haydn’s famously playful 60th Symphony called Sound and Fury. It’s programmed at the festival in Lyons, along with the Haydn Symphony itself, and with the Scottish Chamber Orchestra [where Clyne is the newlyappointed Associate Composer].

You’ve been here to this festival at least three times in the past. Why does Cabrillo continue to draw you?

I love being here at the Cabrillo

And as the country pastor coming to woo the lovely Lizzy, he is comic perfection. Armed with twitches, bodily mannerisms and vocal dazzle that John Cleese would kill for, Peakes reduced the opening night’s audience to tears of laughter.

Genius.

I longed for more chemistry between the play’s central character, the smart and sensible Lizzy Bennet, and her adversaryturned-suitor Mr. Darcy. The connection between the actors, Pratt and Smiling, should tighten as the season continues. Here, as in other places, the director’s choices seemed ambivalent. And the scenes with the outrageously upper-crust Lady Catherine de Bourgh (Pullins again) fell into the cracks between camp, farce and social commentary, without illuminating any of those ideological strands. The play itself—intent upon hilarity with a modern spin, while at the same time underscoring Austen’s social wisdom—seemed uncommitted to any particular point of view. And in that, it showed its 21st-century sensibility.

Pride and Prejudice offers a meaty and engaging evening’s entertainment. A feast for the eyes, thanks to costumer B. Modern and scenic designer Dipu Gupta, it will give fans of Jane Austen much food for thought and amusement.

performance. Except for the central figure Lizzie (Allie Pratt), who finds the game of snaring a husband to be repugnant, the Bennett daughters are highly available; youngest Lydia (a deft Madison Pullins), Jane (Karen Peakes) considered the prettiest, and Mary (Landon Hawkins) considered the least likely to attract a suitor. Hawkins transforms himself onstage from a pigtailed wig and garish green gown into the handsome Mr. Bingley, who along with his sister (Ian Merrill Peakes) has just moved into the neighborhood, to the wheezing delight of Mrs. Bennett. The Bennett girls meet Bingley and his friend—the awkward, handsome Mr. Darcy (Lindsay Smiling)—at a neighborhood ball, and the game of class conflicts and rigid courtship codes of Regency England begins.

As a savvy postmodern playwright, Hamill is keen to point out how little things have changed since Austen’s day, when women were taught that destiny entailed marriage—period. And her approach involves great helpings of parody, slapstick and often-delicious sight gags in which characters switch in and out of drag with the pace of an ’80s Times Square disco.

Opening night’s audience roared its approval during both acts, but especially the second, when the comedy was more acutely pitched against the seriousness of Austen’s social insights. As an irreverent deconstruction of the novel, Hamill’s Pride and Prejudice is full of fun, though not all of it equally successful.

Moving fluidly in and out of no fewer than three different characters, Ian Merrill Peakes owns many of the choicest moments. As the suave and ultimately chastened Mr. Wickham,

KINDRED HERBS PLANT SALE Kindred Herbs—a new, woman-owned plant nursery—is hosting its first medicinal plant sale, with more than 60 herbs from around the world for sale.

As herbalism grows in popularity, many wild plants are being over-harvested.

Kindred Herb’s medicinal plant nursery allows farmers and gardeners to grow and harvest their own herbs locally without depleting the wild populations that are at risk. There will be Ayurvedic, Chinese, European, and North American herbs; all are grown organically and have been selected for their potency and suitability for the cool Santa Cruz climate.

10 a.m.-3 p.m. Saturday, July 20 and Sunday, July 21. 2014 Ocean St. Extension, Santa Cruz. kindred-herbs.com. Free entry.

MUSIC CALENDAR

LOVE YOUR

LOCAL BAND

KARLA HUTTON Local singer-songwriter Karla Hutton recalls the second song she ever wrote, “Spaces In Between.” She wrote it while a friend was going through cancer treatment. As she processed the experience, she thought a lot about the ordinary moments this friend was missing out on.

“It was just something I chose to express about a person’s relationship to time, and what means the most,” Hutton says. “Those little moments in between are really the life that we take for granted.”

The song is an emotive folk song that she wrote five years ago when she attended a songwriting camp at Yosemite after flirting with songwriting for years. Even though she was used to writing—she’s owned a marketing company for 25 years—she didn’t think of herself as a songwriter.

JULY 17-23, 2019 | GOODTIMES.SC | SANTACRUZ.COM

“I kind of got hooked,” Hutton says. “I decided to go for it.”

36

She continued to write songs from her experiences, as well as moments she’s witnessed from the people around her.

“Why We Stay” is another songs she’s really proud of. It tells the stories of three people that chose to stay in situations instead of running away.

“I don’t write love songs. I don’t write happy-go-lucky songs. I write about things that move me and move my heart emotionally,” Hutton says. “That’s the energy I need to express. I want to be able to evoke an emotion that resonates with me and hopefully it resonates with an audience.” AARON CARNES 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, July 24.

Michael’s On Main, 2591 Main St., Soquel. $10. 479-9777.

AMY HELM

WEDNESDAY 7/17 JAM ROCK

CALIFORNIA KIND What makes a jam band work is equal parts knowing your fellow musicians, plus a healthy dose of just-for-thehell-of-it chaos. Like the name suggests, California Kind gives listeners all the highs when life gets them low. Maybe that’s because the band’s roots run deep in modern rock music, featuring members who have played with Rod Stewart, Bruce Hornsby, John Fogerty and many more. As a group, they’ve worked with Warren Haynes, Bob Weir and Phil Lesh, just to name just a few of the original heads. Watch for a debut album later this year. MAT WEIR 8 p.m. Michael’s on Main, 2591 Main St., Soquel. $15 adv/$20 door. 479-9777.

THURSDAY 7/18 INDIE

COSMO GOLD You know a band is chill if they hang out in the bathtub together. I’m not sure if it’s something Cosmo Gold do on the regular, but you can see the band

hanging out in the tub with bored expressions and delightfully ’70s yellow outfits in the new video for “Drown The Fly.” It’s a low-key, indie-pop ditty with upbeat ’70s, quasi-disco grooves pumping along while singer Emily Gold sings, “I am so scared to die.” AC 9 p.m. Crepe Place, 1134 Soquel Ave., Santa Cruz. $5. 429-6994.

FRIDAY 7/19 ROCK

MOON EATER Local four-piece rock outfit Moon Eater released a killer self-titled record in 2012 that straddles the line between punk fury and blues-rock precision, ripping up and shredding every riff like a pissed-off Jon Spencer Blues Explosion. Then in August 2013, the group played its final show as members moved away. Now the band is once again rocking and rolling Santa Cruz with six years of pent-up energy. If you weren’t around the scene back then but love meaty guitar licks, the band will be more than happy to adopt you for the night. AC 9 p.m. Poet And The Patriot, 320 Cedar St., Santa Cruz. Free. 426-8620.

FOLK-ROCK

AMY HELM The list of artists who’ve asked Amy Helm to sing on their records is astounding. Roseanne Cash, Steely Dan, Mercury Rev, Chris Smither, the Holmes Brothers, the Band. OK, well, that last one is kind of a gimme, since Helm’s dad does happen to be Leon Helm, the late drummer for the Band.

After his death, she carried on the Midnight Ramble series of concerts at “the Barn” on his Woodstock, New York property. While she’s been surrounded by fame, she deserves to be discovered for is her own music. She started out in the alt-country band Ollabelle and released her second solo album last year. Anyone who likes her father’s music—and by that, I mean everyone—will appreciate how Helm has inherited the Band’s talent for soulful, rootsy rock with a fantastic beat. Her vocals only seem to get more gorgeous as she matures as a performer. STEVE PALOPOLI 7:30 p.m. Kuumbwa Jazz Center, 320-2 Cedar St., Santa Cruz. $25 adv/$40 gold circle. 427-2227.

ROCK

BENMONT TENCH Benmont Tench might be the actual heart of rock’n’ roll. His catchy keyboard and organ riffs are all over the classics—not just as part of his old group, Tom Petty’s Heartbreakers, but also on albums from U2, Warren Zevon, Elvis Costello, Neil Diamond, Bonnie Raitt, and many, many more.

There’s no way some of those venerated songs would be what they are without Tench and his boisterously fervid keyboard talents. His solos are as good as the rest, with a gently gruff voice, kinda like a mellowed-out Petty (if that’s possible) and simple lyrics and melodies that hit the heart with every beat. AB 8 p.m. Kuumbwa Jazz Center, 320-2 Cedar St., Santa Cruz. $40 adv/$45 door.

Famous as an original member of skate team Bones Brigade, Tommy Guerrero has also played guitar and bass since the late ’70s. With varied influences from Joy Division to Coltrane, Guerrero’s albums reflect the full gambit of his musical tastes.

Lately, his explorations have taken an ethno-jazz, Afrobeat direction.

The album Road to Knowhere is like a long, dusty drive through Death Valley, when the pavement turns to gravel and the GPS no longer works.

Maybe you’re lost, maybe not. Maybe it’s about how far you’re willing to go. AMY BEE

replaced by a clone? For anyone intrigued by these dire questions, DNA’s Comedy Lab welcomes conspiracy theorists, writers and comedians Sam Tripoli and Eddie Bravo to discuss, debate and laugh at some of today’s hottest conspiracies.

What if there was one story that featured Cinderella, whose greatest desire is to attend the King’s Festival; Jack (yeah, that Jack), who has a cow unable to produce milk; and a baker whose wife is unable to bear a child due to a witch’s curse? This is Into The Woods, an unusual but charming take on some familiar characters.

This Tony-award winning play may seem wacky, but it’s a stark look at consequences, as well.

FILM

ROSE GOLD Jessie Buckley as would-be country star Rose-Lynn in ‘Wild Rose.’

Nashville Or Bust JULY 17-23, 2019 | GOODTIMES.SC | SANTACRUZ.COM

Scottish lass chases country dream in cheeky, predictable ‘Wild Rose’ BY LISA JENSEN

42

I

f the Jeopardy answer is “Three chords and the truth,” the question must be, “What is country music?” Rose-Lynn Harlan, the hard-luck young heroine of the musical melodrama Wild Rose, believes this so strongly she has the phrase tattooed on her arm.

A freewheeling saloon singer in a backwater honky-tonk, Rose dreams of country stardom in Nashville— not an unusual dream, but dang near impossible for Rose-Lynn, who is stuck in her native Glasgow, Scotland, half a world away.

Directed by Tom Harper from an original script by Nicole Taylor, Wild Rose begins on the day Rose-Lynn

(Jessie Buckley) is released from prison after serving a one-year sentence for bad behavior. After a pit stop at her boyfriend’s house for a quick tumble, she heads home to the housing project where her disapproving mum Marion (Julie Walters) has been raising Rose-Lynn’s two estranged little kids (named Wynonna and Lyle) in her absence.

Bounced out of her former singing gig at the neighborhood country saloon and forced by the fed-up Marion to finally take responsibility for the children she hardly knows, Rose-Lynn has to accept a day job cleaning house for classy, upscale Susannah (Sophie Okonedo). Turns

out the easily distracted Rose-Lynn is miserable at motherhood, and an unreliable employee. (As soon as Susannah leaves the house, RoseLynn starts sampling her cosmetics, her liquor and her stash—for which there are no consequences whatsoever. The filmmakers just seem to think it’s a cute interlude.)

All Rose-Lynn cares about is the music, and pursuing her obsession of getting to Nashville by any means necessary. Since she doesn’t write her own songs, or even play an instrument, her entire country persona is borrowed from other artists and their music. (Songs by John Prine, Emmylou Harris, Kate

and Anna McGarrigle, and Wynona Judd, among others, are covered by Buckley on the soundtrack.)

Taylor’s script asks us to suspend a great deal of disbelief, and not always willingly. Buckley is a powerful singer with a gutsy stage demeanor, but it’s not entirely plausible that Rose-Lynn inspires such ardent devotion in everyone on the evidence of a single song or demo. (Okay, maybe her mother— except that in this story, her Mum is her harshest critic.) It’s a bit much when she persuades a staid barrister to go to court in hopes of getting her probation ankle bracelet removed by taking him to see her act at the saloon, where he starts rocking out.

When Rose-Lynn gives Susannah a few country music recommendations, Susannah becomes smitten with the genre literally overnight. (“I can’t stop listening!” she gushes.) She’s also smitten with Rose-Lynn herself, and instantly devotes all of her energy and resources to the would-be star’s career. At a climactic performance, even those with whom Rose-Lynn has most severely burned her bridges turn out to cheer her on. And while Taylor’s plot rolls out a familiar refrain of rift, reversal and resolution, the storytelling plateaus don’t always feel earned.

Rose-Lynn’s oblivious selfabsorption is wearying at times.

Still, the movie often entertains with cheeky attitude, occasional flights of musical fantasy and droll dialogue (when you can penetrate the characters’ thick Scottish dialects). When Susannah’s young twins appear out of the blue, the startled Rose-Lynn gasps, “It’s like The Shining!” As she dances around Susannah’s house with the vacuum, singing away, imaginary back-up musicians start appearing around every corner, adding their licks.

Those who are already fans of the genre will get the most out of Wild Rose, as uncluttered and predictable as a country lament.

WILD ROSE **1/2 (our of four) With Jessie Buckley, Julie Walters and Sophie Okonedo. Written by Nicole Taylor. Directed

by Tom Harper. A Neon release. Rated R. 101 minutes.

FILM NEW RELEASES THE ART OF SELF-DEFENSE I’m not sure how many times Jesse Eisenberg’s name has been attached to a film described as “dark comedy,” but it’s definitely not zero! This one has a thrillerish Fight Club vibe, as Eisenberg portrays a “mild-mannered accountant” (it’s okay, official film synopsis, you can just come out and say “nerd,” we already know it’s a Jesse Eisenberg character) who takes up karate after being attacked by a motorcycle gang. (R) 106 minutes. (SP)

JULY 17-23, 2019 | GOODTIMES.SC | SANTACRUZ.COM

THE LION KING To anyone who thought there were no more trees for Disney to shake money out of, I give you what’s being sold as the latest in the company’s series of live-action remakes of hit cartoons.

But the thing is, despite the fact that the computer-generated images of its animal cast are photo-realistic, there’s nothing here that’s actually live action, is there? Nope, it’s literally a cartoon remake of a cartoon. Who knew “hakuna matata” actually translates to “milk it for all it’s worth?” Directed by Jon Favreau.

Featuring the voices of Donald Glover, John Oliver and James Earl Jones. (PG) 118 minutes. (SP)

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 groups. google.com/group/LTATM.

NOW PLAYING BETHANY HAMILTON: UNSTOPPABLE You know, the word “unstoppable” gets thrown around a lot lately. But if you get your arm bitten off by a tiger shark at age 13, and go on to become a pro surfing champion, then yes, you are officially unstoppable, and I will go see the documentary about you called Bethany Hamilton: Unstoppable. Directed by Aaron Lieber. (PG) 98 minutes. (SP)

THE BIGGEST LITTLE FARM When TV director John Chester and his wife got kicked out of their L.A. apartment in 2010, they decided to start a farm on some of the most unfarmworthy land around outside of L.A. Chester documented the entire experience over the next several years, and the resulting film is winning praise not only for its first-person storytelling, but also for the incredible cinematography of the landscape and life that makes up the ecosystem of their farm. (PG) 91 minutes. (SP) CRAWL Kind of weird to see horror’s early-2000s wunderkind Alexandre Aja, who made the incredible High Tension and the less-incredible-but-still-a-bigdeal-at-the-time remake of The Hills Have Eyes, slumming it with a B-level killer-croc variation on Jaws. But considering that I will watch any and all variations on Jaws no matter how terrible (Orca, anyone? How about those god awful Italian ripoffs like Great White and Deep Blood?), the B-level killer-croc variety actually seems sort of classy! Starring Kaya Scodelario and Barry Pepper. (R) 87 minutes. (SP) ECHO IN THE CANYON With Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon A Time in Hollywood coming out this month, it’s prime time for nostalgia around L.A. in the ’60s. This documentary about the Laurel Canyon scene in the mid-’60s traces how groups like the Beach Boys, the Mamas and the Papas, the Byrds, and Buffalo Springfield defined the California sound. It features interviews with and performances from classic artists like Brian Wilson, Michelle Phillips, Eric Clapton, and Ringo Starr, as well as later artists who were influenced by the scene like Beck, Cat Power, Regina Spektor, and Norah Jones. Directed

by Andrew Slater. (PG-13) 82 minutes. (SP) THE LAST BLACK MAN IN SAN FRANCISCO This first feature from director Joe Talbot is based on a story he concocted with his longtime friend and fellow San

Francisco native, Jimmie Fails. It’s a remarkably assured and absorbing meditation on the mythology of the city’s fabled past while its characters—two young black men born and raised in the city—reckon with the uncertainty of its present.

As a semi-autobiographical version of himself, Fails’ character is obsessed with a stately Victorian-style house built by his grandfather that his family no longer possesses. Jonathan Majors offers poignant support as his best friend in this dreamy, splendidly composed mood piece about the search for home and identity in the rapidly evolving city they love. (R) 120 minutes. (LJ) MEN IN BLACK: INTERNATIONAL The Men in Black franchise is 20 years old, and there’s definitely something a little squickier in 2019 about its premise of immigrant hunters with big guns as cool heroes. What’s the over/under on how many big things will turn out to be run by tiny aliens inside it? 11? 25? 38? I feel that these are all good guesses.

Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones are long gone, but we do have the reteaming of Thor: Ragnarok’s Chris Hemsworth and Tessa Thompson leaving behind the NYC branch of the organization that polices “illegal aliens” (har, har) for London. Directed by F. Gary Gray.

Co-starring Liam Neeson, Emma Thompson and Rebecca Ferguson.

(PG-13) 115 minutes. (SP) MIDSOMMAR A group of tourists who have definitely not seen The Wicker Man go to a small Swedish commune to observe a pagan ritual. The film is set in a small Swedish community, to which a group of Americans have traveled to observe a midsummer festival.

Writer-director Ari Aster’s new film isn’t scary, in the traditional sense. And yet the oppressive, constant sense of dread, punctuated by a string of increasingly extreme shocks, creates one of the most effective feats of true cinematic horror to come along in quite some time.

(R) 147 minutes. (SP)

SPIDER-MAN: FAR FROM HOME Spider-Man, Spider-Man/ Der ner neer, it’s Spider-Man/ He gets a film, like every year/ They’re basically all the same/ Except for the Spider-verse one!/That one was really good!/ Spider-Man, Spider-Man/I don’t think I’m even following the tune of Spider-Man/But anyway, he goes to Europe/That’s far from New York, thus the title/ Jake Gyllenhaal is the bad guy/ Trying to spell his name makes me a sad guy/But I have to, ‘cause he’s fighting Spider-Man! Directed by John Watts. Starring Tom Holland, Zendaya and Jake Gyllenhaal. (PG-13) 129 minutes.

(SP) STUBER Guardians of the Galaxy star Dave Bautista recently said he won’t do Fast and the Furious movies because, “I’d rather do good ones.” Judging from the trailers for Stuber, this is a brandnew policy he came up with after making it. In this action comedy, he plays a cop who drafts unwilling Uber driver Kumail Nanjiani into his operations. I don’t know which of these things is worse: someone watching Karan Soni’s role as a comic-relief taxi driver in the Deadpool movies and saying, “Let’s make a movie about that, but with fewer South Asian stereotypes” or someone watching Jamie Foxx’s role as a trapped taxi driver in Collateral and thinking, “Let’s make a movie about that, but with more South Asian stereotypes.”

But I guarantee you that one of them happened, and thus we have Stuber. Directed by Michael Dowse.

Co-starring Karen Gillan, Natalie Morales and Mira Sorvino. (R) 93 minutes. (SP) TONI MORRISON: THE PIECES I AM You know, the word “legend” gets thrown around a lot lately. But if you’ve received a Pulitzer Prize, an American Book Award and the Nobel Prize in Literature, then yes, you are officially a legend, and I will go see the documentary about you called Toni Morrison: Legend. I mean, Toni Morrison: Unstoppable.

I mean, Toni Morrison: The Pieces I Am. Directed by Timothy

Greenfield-Sanders. (PG-13) 120 minutes. (SP) TOY STORY 4 Last night I woke up in the middle of the night and thought, “Should I be worried that both the Child’s Play and Toy Story movies are about a kid named Andy whose toys come to life?” I am definitely not eating spicy foods before bed anymore.

In other news, this fourth installment of the animated Pixar franchise is said to be the sweetest and most poignant of them all, which is also what they said about Toy Story 3. And probably what they’ll say about Toy Story 5, as long as Tom Hanks as Woody, Tim Allen as Buzz Lightyear and the rest of the gang keep pouring on the sweet poignancy. Directed by Josh Cooley. (G) 100 minutes. (SP) WILD ROSE Reviewed this issue.

(R) 101 minutes.

YESTERDAY Imagine if the Beatles had never existed. In his antic and audacious new movie Yesterday, director Danny Boyle poses an even gnarlier idea: suppose the Beatles had existed, but then suddenly disappeared from the collective memory of basically everyone on Earth—except one guy?

Imagine the potential for comedy (not to mention plunder and exploitation) if that guy were a struggling singer-songwriter who could take his pick from the entire song catalog of the Fab Four, certain that no one in the audience had ever heard of John, Paul, George, or Ringo. Scripted by veteran Richard Curtis (Four Weddings And A Funeral; Love Actually), for the ever genrebouncing Boyle, Yesterday is a sly, persuasive morality play about the wages and nature of success dressed up as a popcultural comedy. It’s also as entertaining as hell, especially for those of us who do remember The Beatles, thank you very much. Starring Himesh Patel and Lily James (PG-13) 116 minutes.

Wine’s New Wave JULY 17-23, 2019 | GOODTIMES.SC | SANTACRUZ.COM

Tasting features eight up-and-coming vintners BY CHRISTINA WATERS

O

n Sunday, July 21, Soif Winebar and Merchants will bring together a galaxy of the newest winemakers in Santa Cruz for a unique afternoon tasting. The Santa Cruz Mountains was one of the state’s first American Viticultural Areas (AVAs), and today a new generation of winemakers continues to reveal the terroir of the area through sustainable, biodynamic and non-traditional practices. This Sunday at Soif is an opportunity to meet eight of these winemakers.

Alexis Carr—who started at Soif two years ago and now serves as wine shop manager—grew up in Santa Cruz, went off to school in

Vancouver and earned a master’s degree in biodynamic strategies. She has up-and-coming winemakers on her radar.

“Santa Cruz wine and food is such a tight community,” she says. “I began making friends with the new winemakers who always invited me to come and try some of their wines.” What she tasted was terrific.

Carr was impressed by how “crazy brave” it was for so many young entrepreneurs to put their energy into sustainable and biodynamic wine practices. “It takes heart and soul to do this,” she says.

On July 21, eight winemakers will present and pour their wines,

accompanied by bread, cheeses and small bites by Soif chef Tom McNary. (Featured wines will also be available for purchase.)

Among the featured winemakers will be Ryan Stirm, who studied viticulture, eonology and sustainable agriculture at Cal Poly before working in wineries in California, Australia and Austria. Stirm Wine Company specializes in Grüner Veltliner, Pinot Noir and awardwinning Riesling made from old-vine grapes.

Keegan Mayo of Assiduous Wines was born on the Big Island of Hawaii but moved to Santa Cruz at age 8. Mayo learned his craft at UC Davis, Mumm

and in New Zealand before returning to create wines from organically farmed vineyards.

Florèz Wines was founded by James Jelks in 2017. Born in Santa Cruz, Jelks went through the UC Davis viticulture and enology program, then worked around the globe before coming back to produce wine in Santa Cruz County using organic and dry farming practices.

Madson Winemaker Cole Thomas was an organic vegetable farmer before turning his hand to wine.

Working with Jeff Emery of Santa Cruz Mountain Vineyard, Thomas expanded his wine knowledge. He met viticulturist Ken Swegles while bottling wine, and together they launched Madson Wines.

Margins Wine produces lowintervention wines using grapes from underrepresented regions, vineyards and varietals. Winemaker Megan Bell is committed to locating sustainably farmed vineyards and earned her degree in viticulture and enology from UC Davis before apprenticing in Napa, the Willamette Valley, New Zealand, and France’s Loire Valley.

Ryan Stirm and Andrew Nelson from San Luis Obispo’s Lapis Luna Wines will represent Companion Wine Co., a collaboration among Central Coast winemakers. The endeavor celebrates terroir-driven, natural wine with an emphasis on Riesling.

Samuel Louis Smith Wines sources grapes from sustainably managed vineyards throughout the Central Coast. Winemaker Sam Smith, also head winemaker at the historic Morgan Winery, learned to make natural wine in New Zealand, Australia and France.

Stagiaire (from the French word for apprentice) makes wines exclusively from organic vineyards crafted by winemaker Brent Mayeaux. After learning to farm and make wine naturally in New Zealand, Australia and France, Mayeaux moved back to the U.S. to produce his own wine.

New Wave Santa Cruz Winemakers, July 21 from 1-4 p.m. at Soif, 105 Walnut Ave., Santa Cruz. $20 adv/$25 door. soifwine.com.

et me start by quoting Santa Cruz winery owners John Locke and Alex Krause: “You can’t be too rich, too beautiful or too birichino.” The word means “mischievous” or “naughty” in Italian, and there’s a lot to be said for that!

Locke and Krause’s Malvasia Bianca 2018 ($17) is one of the most popular wines they make at Birichino, where sales have skyrocketed. Although the Malvasia grape is planted in many parts of Italy, it’s actually of Greek origin. In the winery owners’ words, “Malvasia threaded her way through the forests of Calabria before slipping ashore in California under cover of darkness.” Look for lovely fragrances of jasmine, lime blossom and elderflower—with all the delightful floral notes, it’s like a bouquet of summer flowers in your glass. Bright and invigorating, this dry white wine pairs well with a wide array of food.

If you want to try it, along with the rest of Birichino’s wines, head to their airy tasting room in downtown Santa Cruz.

THOUGHT FOR FOOD Roger Burleigh of Monterey Bay Fisheries Trust.

Get Hooked A week of seafood schooling

T

BY JACOB PIERCE

he Central Coast had a booming fishing industry until about 20 years ago, says Roger Burleigh, marketing and supply chain management for Monterey Bay Fisheries Trust.

These days, most locals aren’t aware of what fish swim in the bay’s waters. The Fisheries Trust hopes to change that with Get Hooked Restaurant Week, which launches Monday, July 29, and runs through Sunday, Aug. 4. By coordinating with local restaurants, Burleigh aims to educate curious foodies and highlight the area’s fishing operations.

fishermen, but they have had to endure quite a lot over the decades, and there just aren’t that many young fishermen. They’re out there.

But much in the same way that the demographics for farmers in this country are getting older and older, the same thing is happening with our local fleet. It’s what they call graying of the fleet.

What’s your favorite fish?

Oh, absolutely. It’s constantly running through my mind how we can spin words, and one new feature that we didn’t hold during the Monterey event is we’re holding a closing dinner at the Food Lounge, Sunday, Aug. 4—$50, four-course meal. Internationally renowned Santa Cruz chef Diego Felix is doing the catering. I’m calling it a finale dinner, with an emphasis on the “fin” part. And our tagline is “Putting Monterey Bay’s best fish forward.”

ROGER BURLEIGH: One species we’re going to highlight is lingcod, and the neat thing about that species is some of the fish are blue, and their flesh looks like it was dumped in a vat of blue dye—but when you cook it, it turns white. People get freaked out by it: “Oh my god! Is that a GMO?” Nope, completely natural.

It’s part of their life history. It’s a flaky white fish. It’s delicious.

What’s life like out there for those in the industry?

It’s hard. I can’t speak for the

This event opens the door to some fun puns—“hook up,” “get hooked on local fish,” “We’ll hook you up with great fish deals.” Have you been playing around with that?

Get Hooked Restaurant Week is July 29-Aug. 9. gethookedmontereybay.com.

H RISA’S STARS BY RISA D’ANGELES THE PROMISE OF FREEDOM

Living on Earth is living on a planet of duality.

We understand night because there is day, up because there is down, right because there is left, darkness because of the light. There are times when duality is presented to us in great measure. We are in that time now, living as we are in what is spiritually referred to as the Kali Yuga Age—years when the darkness (hiding the promise of light) is allowed to be out and about in the world. Darkness that is equal to the light, a profound duality. This duality is manifesting in our country in language, behaviors, political thinking, and perception.

Duality has purpose. When pointed out, we discern what our position and beliefs are, and more choices become available. Presently, two different political views, like two sides of a gold coin, prevail: the politics of grievance,

intolerance and victimhood, and, on the other side, the politics of hope and goodwill. One is bright with promise. The other leads to violence and destruction. One sings, the other is unable. One has hope, the other despair.

One allows for freedom, the other suppression.

This duality underscores the battle for freedom in our country, and highlights a profound developmental stage within humanity Disciples know three things: 1. Before a new harmony emerges, conflict and chaos appear; 2. The promise of freedom is greater than the problems encountered on the journey towards that freedom; 3. The U.S. is an experiment in freedom. On Monday, the Sun enters Leo, sign of individual free thinking—away from tribal, mass thinking. Leo is the sign of the Soul, always choosing goodwill.

ARIES Mar21–Apr20

LIBRA Sep23–Oct22

What is your lineage, what are your cultural roots, your heritage? How are interactions and relations with family and relatives, and how are you feeling about yourself these days? Your energy may be low. You must rest, be in the sun and sleep a bit more, tend more to family and the home, and bring into your environments that which sustains, comforts and supports you. No moods will be allowed.

Is there a conflict between previous choices and present ways of being? Holding onto the past is a comfort.

However, you also want to move forward. You cannot do both. Review what the past means to you and why you made certain decisions that keep you from certain situations and people. The eclipses this month bring forth startling and surprising thoughts, ideas, events, and life changes. The ideas of forgiveness and inclusion follow.

Esoteric Astrology as news for the week of July 17, 2019

TAURUS Apr21–May21 You may be in touch with past relationships and friends.

This will allow you to review not only your self-worth, but also what you value about yourself. You will find that you must begin or assume again plans for community development, new neighborhoods based on community cooperative ideals. Communication between two factions may be needed. Notice any values conflicts. What is right beside you is most important.

SCORPIO Oct23–Nov21 Bold steps may be taken in areas of goals, culture, study, education, and career. You may even travel a bit, leading to a new direction in life. Careful in the retrograde.

Something dramatic and different may occur at work—or has it already? As time passes, you’ll understand the opportunities being offered to you. If you could do anything in the future, what would that be?

GEMINI May 22–June 20

SAGITTARIUS Nov22–Dec20

A new beginning, a reorientation or a re-evaluation of your values has been called forth. Changes have occurred, opportunities are appearing. You must keep up with these, for you can be a spokesperson for many. A smaller reality must fall away in order for you to embrace a larger one. Usually you’re silent about such things.

Who can you talk to now? The soul brightens up each day, calling your personality to choose.

Unexpected events will affect your dream world, your intuition and the place where inspiration comes from.

You are to tend to finances once again. It’s important to know what your relationship is with money and sharing with others. This will expand and change. Also, someone may come along in the next three months, and then new ideas and revelations occur. Be charming and kind.

CAPRICORN Dec21–Jan20 Allow yourself to rest more. Don’t be guarded, don’t overwork or stress yourself. If you do, someone or something may catch you off guard. Too many details these days are exhausting and distracting from what’s important. Tell everyone in your environment you need extra help. Create an agenda of tasks for others to do.

Allow them to perform those tasks. Then give them stars. In the meantime, lay about and languish a bit.

AQUARIUS Jan21–Feb18

Review your career path, your finances and your spiritual knowledge and beliefs. This will shift into focus what is most important for you. You will recommit to something, someplace or someone from long ago. This surprises you. You’re finally learning from (and listening to) others.

Many have loved you over lifetimes. What does your heart tell you about these things?

At first the weeks ahead feel uncontrollable, surprising and uncertain. Then you realize life is changing at such a rapid pace that you may as well be happy, expectant and excited about it. This response expands your imagination and vision, elevates and vivifies your life force, and you feel divinely connected to all forms of life, all planes and kingdoms. This, by the way, is joy. Now you can nourish others with it.

VIRGO Aug23–Sep22

PISCES Feb19–Mar20

You will enter into regions of the mind not often explored, and will find over time what ideas and beliefs from long ago need elimination so that new regions of the mind can develop. Hidden aspects of self will be encountered. Observe everything. The eclipses brings endings with new beginnings. Along with your retrograde journal, are you writing in your eclipse journal?

You will begin to see things—life’s events, choices—in a new light. This will be good. You will learn to not turn away when upset or sad, but to turn toward and make amends. You will also begin to have a calm perspective and faith in the future, knowing what comes forth will be perfect. Something will occur that changes you—a gift, a task, recognition, a new role, a family member, a question.

A new beginning is occurring for you. A new seed thought has been planted in your heart and mind. I know you sense and feel it. Forces and energies not yet fully known call you to a greater self-discovery. Perhaps it concerns where you live and your present world work.

You have/will become more adaptable, which increases your self-acceptance and self-worth. Something ends quietly, and something greater begins.

Contrary to the overwhelming evidence this historic, low inventory market has provided, some folks insist on sticking to the powerful conditioning they received in past markets when it was considered “smart” to build plenty of “wiggle room” into their list price.

Always ask for more than you want, the theory went. Buyers always offer less than you are asking and less than what they can actually afford. When you list higher and they offer less, you can split the difference and you’ll get the price you wanted all along. That’s how it was supposed work.

But...in the hundreds of transactions I’ve observed over the last five years, that old notion about “wiggle room” has been much more the exception rather than the rule. This is a brave new market with radical new rules that most sellers and buyers have never experienced before. Older models about pricing simply don’t apply.

Here’s what’s different:

- Sellers no longer list homes looking for just one buyer. Every seller dreams about multiple buyers making multiple offers.

- Buyers think they have to offer list price (or more) just to have their offer considered. Most are afraid to offer less than list until a house has been on the market for 30 days.

- The real negotiation isn’t between sellers and buyers these days. It’s actually what happens when multiple buyers are sitting around the metaphorical blind poker table bidding each other up with higher prices and more favorable terms.

- A skilled seller’s agent knows how to stoke competition between buyers to orchestrate the best results. A seller’s magic window disappears between the third and fourth week on the market.

- When a property is listed with too much wiggle room, it actually makes it less likely there will be multiple buyers competing. The longer a house is on the market the less it sells for.

- Unlike what most of us were conditioned to believe in the past, the best strategy to get more for your home is to price it lower than what you hope to get. Not higher.

THE PERFECT WINE & FOOD NEW YORK STRIPPAIRING STEAK INGREDIENTS: 2 strip steaks Coarse Kosher or sea salt Coarse ground black pepper Garlic Thyme Compound Butter (optional): 4 tablespoons salted butter, softened 2 cloves minced garlic 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce 1 teaspoon fresh, or ½ teaspoon dried, thyme leaves INSTRUCTIONS: 1. 30 minutes prior to grilling, remove steaks from the refrigerator, season on both sides with the coarse salt and allow to come up in temperature.

2. Preheat the grill to high heat – around 900 degrees F on the grill grates.

3. Combine all ingredients for the compound butter in a small bowl. Place one spoonful of butter directly on the serving platter where each steak will be placed. Do this before you get your steaks on the grill so when they come off, you can set each steak on a spoonful of the butter. Set aside the remaining butter for the top of the grilled steaks.

4. Place the steaks directly on the grill grates at a diagonal.

For a medium rare steak, cook 2-3 minutes, then rotate 45 degrees and grill for 2-3 more minutes.

5. Flip the steaks over, cook 2-3 minutes, then rotate 45 degrees and grill for 2-3 more minutes. Increase or decrease cooking time as needed to reach ideal internal doneness. For a Rare steak, cook to 125 degrees F, Medium Rare to 135 degrees, Medium to 145 degrees, Medium Well to 155 degrees, Well Done to 160 degrees.

6. Let the steaks rest for at least 8-10 minutes before slicing. Sprinkle with the black pepper just before serving.
