ROB BREZSNY FREE WILL ASTROLOGY Thanks To All Who Participated In This Year’s Bowl For Kids’ Sake
Week of June 4 ARIES Mar21–Apr19
LIBRA Sep23–Oct22
“We are born with whirlwinds, forest fires, and comets inside us,” writes novelist Robert R. McCammon. “We are born able to sing to birds and read the clouds and see our destiny in grains of sand. But then we get the magic educated right out of our souls. We get it churched out, spanked out, washed out, and combed out. We get put on the straight and narrow path and told to be responsible.” That's the bad news, Aries. But now here's the good news: The next 12 months will offer you a series of excellent opportunities to re-magic yourself. If you have not yet caught wind of the first invitation, I bet you will soon.
My favorite bridge in the world is the Golden Gate Bridge. In the hundreds of times I have driven on it over San Francisco Bay, it has never let me down. I've always gotten from one side to the other without any problem. In addition to its reliability, it uplifts me with its grandeur and beauty. What's your most beloved bridge, Libra? I suggest that in the coming weeks you make it your lucky charm, your magical symbol. Why? Because the next chapter of your life story requires you to make a major crossing. You will traverse a great divide. Having your favorite bridge as a shining beacon in your imagination will inspire your strength and courage as you travel.
TAURUS Apr20–May20
This year’s Big Brothers Big Sisters of Santa Cruz County Bowl for Kids’ Sake was a great success, thanks to the 500+ bowlers, Corporate and Organization Sponsors, and community volunteers! Over $107,000 was raised over the 2 day event on May 3rd & 4th. All the proceeds stay local to help match the youth waiting for their own Big Brother or Big Sister.
“When given a choice between owning an object and having an experience,” says art critic Holland Cotter, “I always choose the experience.” He prefers to spend his money on adventures that transform his sense of self and his understanding of the world. I recommend that approach to you in the coming weeks, Taurus. The most valuable “possessions” you can acquire will be the lessons you learn, the skills you hone and the relationships you ripen.
We would like to thank all our Lane Sponsors for the Event:

In Marcel Proust's novel Swann's Way, the narrator speaks of how profoundly he is inspired by an older writer named Bergotte: “Each time he talked about something whose beauty had until then been hidden from me, about pine forests, about hail, about Notre-Dame Cathedral … with one image he would make that beauty explode into me.” I bring this to your attention, Gemini, because in the coming days I suspect a great deal of beauty will explode into you. Why? I think it's because you're more receptive than usual to being delighted and enchanted. The triggers could be anything: exciting people, eavesdropped conversations, good books, surprising music and who knows what else?
CANCER Jun21–Jul22 “Little horses cannot carry great riders.” So says a Haitian proverb. Now, in accordance with the astrological omens, I'm urging you to meditate on its meaning for your life. Here are four possible interpretations: 1. Are you a “little horse” trying to carry a “great rider” who's too much for you? 2. Are you a little horse that could grow into a bigger, stronger horse worthy of a great rider? 3. Are you a “great rider” who is in need of a horse that is big and strong enough to serve your big, strong ambitions? 4. Would you like to be a “great rider,” but you can't be one as long as you have a horse that is too small and weak?

Thank You To All Our Major Sponsors
Declare victory, Leo. Even if victory is not quite won yet. Even if your success is imperfect and still a bit messy around the edges. Raise your arms up in elated triumph and shout, “I am the purified champion! I am the righteous conqueror! I have outsmarted my adversaries and outmaneuvered my obstacles, and now I am ready to claim my rightful rewards!” Do this even if you're not 100-percent confident, even if there is still some scraping or clawing ahead of you. Celebrate your growing mastery. Congratulate yourself for how far you've come. In this way, you will summon what's needed to complete your mission and achieve final, total victory.
VIRGO Aug23–Sep22 Give special attention to what will last the longest. That's my main recommendation for you in the coming weeks. Devote less of your energy to transitory pleasures and short-term hopes. Turn away from the small obsessions that demand far too much of your energy. Withdraw from the seemingly pressing concerns that will soon start to fade because they really aren't that important. Instead, Virgo, devote your love and intelligence to the joys and dilemmas that will animate your life well into the future. Express reverence and care for the mysteries that will teach you and teach you and teach you for years to come.
SCORPIO Oct23–Nov21 U2's Bono has called Leonard Cohen's song "Hallelujah" "the most perfect song in the world." It is mournful and triumphant, despairing and uplifting. It's a riddle that improbably offers cathartic release. Over 300 recording artists have done cover versions of it, and it has even been the subject of books. And yet it was a challenge for Cohen to compose. He wrote more than 80 verses before choosing the few he would actually include in the final version, and in one famous session he resorted to banging his head on the floor to stimulate his creative flow. “To find that urgent song,” he said, took “a lot of work and a lot of sweat.” I nominate “Hallelujah” to be one of your sacred symbols for the next 12 months, Scorpio. From your strenuous effort, I predict, will come masterful creations.
SAGITTARIUS Nov22–Dec21 Let me outline the breakthroughs I hope to see for you in the coming months. First, what is pretty good about you will not interfere with what is potentially great about you, but will instead cooperate with it and boost it. Second, your past accomplishments won't hold back your progress; you will not be tempted to rely on them at the expense of your future accomplishments. And third, the brave ideas that have motivated you so well won't devolve into staid old dogmas; you will either renew and reinvigorate them or else move on to a new set of brave ideas.
CAPRICORN Dec22–Jan19 If you are in even moderate alignment with cosmic rhythms during the next 12 months, you will be a connoisseur and master of recycling. I'm speaking metaphorically here. What I hope is that you will reanimate worn-out inspirations and convert faded dreams into shiny new fantasies. You will find ways to revive alliances that went off track. A once-vibrant shtick or trick that lost its cool could be retrieved from the ash heap of history and turned into a fresh, hot asset. Gear yourself up for some entertaining resurrections.
AQUARIUS Jan20–Feb18 I wish I could tell you that your power animal this month is the eagle or dolphin or panther. Having a glamorous creature like that as your ally might boost your confidence and charisma. To be paired with one of them might even activate dormant reserves of your animal intelligence. But I can't in good conscience authorize such an honor. That's not what the astrological omens are suggesting. In fact, your power animal this June is the bunny rabbit. Please understand that there is no shame in this. On the contrary. You should be charmed and appreciative. It signifies that you will be fertile, fast, a bit tricky and very cute. (To read an essay on the mythology of the rabbit as trickster, go here: http:// tinyurl.com/rabbittrickster.)
PISCES Feb19–Mar20 The Buddhist meditation teacher Chogyam Trungpa said that one of the best ways to become fearless is to cultivate tenderness. As you expand your heart's capacity to feel compassionate affection for the world, you have less and less to be afraid of. That's the opposite of the conventional wisdom, which says you become brave by toughening up, by reinforcing your psychic armor. Of all the signs of the zodiac, you Pisceans are best set up to benefit from Trungpa's method—now even more than usual.

BLOOM OF HEALTH Santa Cruz naturopathic doctor Aimée Gould Shunney says dandelions can aid our livers in detoxifying blood.
Petal Power
What can dandelions do for our bodies? | BY MARIA GRUSAUSKAS Santa Cruz-based naturopathic doctor Aimée Gould Shunney says yes, to all of it. In fact, she believes poor liver and digestive health are the root cause of any ailment. "Those who are 'anti-cleansing' seem to feel that our livers are designed to cleanse and detoxify, and therefore cleansing programs are bogus and unnecessary," says Shunney, who leads regular, foodbased cleanses through her program Cleanse Organic, as a way to restore and reset the body's vital functions. While Shunney agrees that the liver does an amazing job in the detox department, she also believes it is heavily burdened in this day and age. "Let’s start with the hundreds of thousands of environmental
chemicals to which we are exposed," says Shunney. "Add to that our medications, alcohol and recreational drug use, nutrient-depleted diets, and our high stress levels.” Symptoms of an overtaxed liver include dry skin and acne, constipation, gas and bloating, frequent headaches, chronic fatigue, and an inability to lose weight. So what can be done? An antiinflammatory diet that excludes alcohol, caffeine, refined sugar and red meat will effectively give our livers a much-deserved break, says Shunney. But liver health isn't all about deprivation; there are actually several foods we can eat to support the detoxification process. "Specific liver-supportive stars to

n the upper right abdomen, taking up most of the space under the ribs, resides a massive, three-pound organ: the liver. Among its many lifecritical tasks, it processes virtually everything we put into our bodies, from vital nutrients to last night's wine. At any given time, the liver holds 13 percent of our blood supply, breaking down toxins and converting nutrients before releasing them back into the blood to be stored or eliminated. But might we be taking this ceaseless process a little bit for granted? And would we feel better and more vibrant if we gave our livers a short break—or even lent them a hand?
include in your diet are beets, dark green leafy vegetables, cruciferous vegetables like broccoli, cabbage and cauliflower, sweet potatoes, citrus, and one you probably don't eat very much—dandelion," says Shunney. That's right, dandelion. Long before the war of herbicides and well-manicured lawns began, the tenacious dandelion was embraced as a medicine by many ancient cultures. And for thousands of years, dandelions have been used in Chinese medicine as a liver and blood-cleansing tonic. "Dandelion is a natural diuretic that removes excess toxins and water from your body, which purifies the blood," says Shunney. The entire plant is edible, and the flowers contain flavonoids, the same antioxidants found in green tea that help fight disease. The roots make for an excellent colon cleansing tea. "By purifying the blood, your liver has to do less work." Today, the familiar toothy leaves have become a common sight in produce aisles and farmers markets. They contain more vitamin A than spinach, more vitamin C than tomatoes, and tons of iron (twice that of spinach), as well as calcium and potassium, and they are also a good source of vitamin E. Dandelion greens also contain choline, a liver stimulant, as well as inulin and levulin, which help the body produce insulin and balance blood sugar. Shunney recommends them for people with diabetes. Interestingly, while Western cultures often avoid bitter-tasting foods, the bitter substance present in dandelions—taraxacin— stimulates digestion, which is a crucial component in nutrient absorption and removal of waste from the body. According to naturopathic doctor Jennifer Brett, the very presence of a bitter taste in the mouth promotes the flow of bile from the liver and gallbladder, which helps break down fats. Try throwing dandelion greens into a smoothie—the best way to mask the bitterness—or enjoy a nice bitter spring salad before you sip that wine. Your liver will thank you.

PROFIT SHARES Five things we’ve learned from city budget meetings BY JACOB PIERCE
JUNE 4-10, 2014 | GTWEEKLY.COM | SANTACRUZ.COM
PLAYING BRIDGE
12
Public Works, the city’s most expensive department, has a few significant infrastructure plans this year—including an update for Ocean Street traffic equipment to reduce wait times, and a roundabout where the wharf meets Beach Street. The discussion over the department’s proposed $56 million budget hasn’t been without speed bumps, though. Alternative transportation activists want to put brakes on a $500,000 plan to study a supposedly much-needed Highway 1 bridge replacement over the San Lorenzo River that CalTrans had originally offered to fund. CalTrans and the Regional Transportation Commission have since backed away from earlier comments; they now say the 58-year-old bridge actually isn’t so unsafe after all. Councilmembers Don Lane and Micah Posner tried to direct staff to take the bridge study out of the budget, but their motion didn’t go anywhere with the other councilmembers. Public Works Director Mark Dettle, who worries about the bridge’s safety, said CalTrans doesn’t take into account certain concerns, like flood dangers posed by the current bridge. FULL FORCE

It’s budget season again, and things in Santa Cruz’s city government are looking up—thanks, partly, to a rebounding economy and the recently increased transient occupancy taxes. Santa Cruz also got its bond rating upgraded to AA+, putting the city’s credit on an equal footing with the nation’s. The trick this month, though, will be figuring out the best way to divvy up this $216 million pie we call the proposed city budget—although council and city staff do see eye-to-eye in most places. With all that in mind, we take a look at the budget discussions across five different departments in meetings so far.

The Santa Cruz Municipal Wharf has served the city for 100 years, and is an anomaly among its kind. “It is the longest timber pile wharf remaining on the coast of the United States,” says wharf supervisor Jon Bombaci. “It’s one of three in this class in the world.” In order to enliven the municipal wharf, preserve its heritage, and ensure the structure continues to withstand the test of time, Santa Cruz staff, with the help of a few consultants, have compiled the Wharf Master Plan and Engineering Report—a set of recommendations, proposals and guidelines that might serve as a roadmap for the wharf’s future. “We’re trying to maintain some of
the existing fabric of the wharf, some of the social fabric, and some of the physical parts of it,” says Norm Daly, wharf property manager, and project manager for the Wharf Master Plan. “It really takes a reinvestment of energy, of funds, and of straight, clear thinking about what do we want to happen out here. What would be the best for the community? What would be the best for residents and for the business people out here? And that’s what this plan is trying to do: identify things through proposals and concepts that can really take it through the next 25 years,” Daly says. The new plan calls for moving the entrance station further from Beach Street, and adding two entrance gates accompanied by a welcome sign. The plan also aims to create a new overlook at the pier’s end, haul-outs for sea lions to lounge in full view of pedestrians, ADA-accessible ramps to proposed boat landings, and, at
the wharf’s end, a historic landmark building—similar to a structure that stood there in the past. One idea that stands out is the proposed “East Promenade,” which would widen the wharf by 24 feet, and create a safer pedestrian experience. The promenade would make the wharf more desirable for bicyclists and pedestrians, while adding stability and strength to its structure. “I see the raised promenade on the east side as the most valuable element of this Wharf Master Plan project because it will eliminate a lot of the bicyclist/pedestrian tangle that goes on in the summer out there, and it will put people much more at ease, and will give locals much freer access via bicycle,” says Bombaci. “You’re adding that lateral strength, which is just critical.” The plan, partly funded by a $850,000 federal grant in >14

CURRENT CHANGES <12 October 2012 following the 2011 tsunami, also suggests adding a glass-encased events pavilion on the historic pier’s western side, where an underutilized stage currently resides. On days when the winds are low and the sun is shining, the pavilion could be opened up.
POPULAR PLANKS The last remaining wharf out of an original six in the city, the Santa Cruz Municipal Wharf first came about through a $182,000 bond issue in 1913, passed by a 45-to-1 vote (3400 for, 73 against)—the largest plurality in city history. “I am pretty darn sure that’s never happened again on any bond measure,” says Bombaci, who oversees the wharf’s dayto-day operation,s and keeps an encyclopedic knowledge of the structure’s rich history. With the railroads holding sway on
freight prices, and road technologies still in a primitive state, many saw the construction of the municipal wharf, which was completed in December of 1914, as a more reliable means to transport raw materials and finished goods in and out of Santa Cruz—a way to secure the town’s future as a viable seaport. “Santa Cruz was the third-largest shipping port in the state at the time, and they really saw themselves as having a future as a major shipping port,” says Bombaci. Soon after the wharf’s completion, railroads dropped their shipping prices, and road-paving technology evolved. “It really affected the whole freight aspect pretty deeply,” says Bombaci. That left the wharf in the hands of commercial and charter fishing. That is, until the 1950s, when commercial fishing fell into decline with the arrival of larger fishing vessels from San Francisco. By the ’70s, the commercial fishing industry had all
but fallen by the wayside. As commercial shipping and fishing waned, restaurants and shops found homes on the wharf, and the structure’s contemporary function as a recreational draw to residents and tourists began to take shape and evolve.
EXTENDING TO THE FUTURE The city chose to work with Boris Dramov and Bonnie Fisher of ROMA Design Group, a San Francisco-based architectural firm that specializes in waterfront design, and worked with the city in the past to redesign downtown after the Loma Prieta earthquake. “We love Santa Cruz and have worked there many times,” says Fisher. “We feel like we know it. It is a place we feel very comfortable with.” Fisher and Dramov drew from the wharf’s historical designs, and the surrounding seascape. “What you want is to >18

For years we’ve heard abstract talk about economic development—that we need to build better partnerships, while supporting agriculture and tourism and the like. Well, talk is cheaper than an arcade token at the Boardwalk, but county officials are gearing up to follow through on such discussions. The county’s new Economic Vitality Strategy, which was presented to the board of supes last month, comes out to 110 pages, accompanied by two reports that combine for 202 more. Okay, so it’s still talk, but considerably less abstract this time—and quite ambitious, too. A 45-day comment period for the draft strategy wraps up in early July. “The report covers so much,” says Joe Foster, executive director of the Santa Cruz County Business Council. “It’s a little different than what we’ve
seen in the community. Is it all achievable? That remains to be seen, but it’s a good start.” Among its many suggestions, the strategy (which can be read at www.sccoplanning.com) calls for a requirement that all county businesses file for a business license to allow the county to better track economic statistics.
OWN IT Ty Pearce didn’t have the easiest childhood growing up transgender in an often chaotic household. “My home life wasn’t always that great,” says Pearce, who will be featured on television’s Our America Thursday, June 5 at 10 p.m. “My parents were—“ “Alcoholics,” interrupts his dad, Kirk Meyer, who’s standing beside him. “Party animals,” Pearce finishes. Pearce, now 36, was born Tanya, and started taking hormones and underwent
surgery in 2010 to become a male. He was featured on Oprah Winfrey’s OWN network later that year (it would be his first of three segments on Lisa Ling’s weekly show). But Pearce didn’t realize how tough of a transition he was in for. Hormonal supplements sent him spiraling through a change similar to puberty, and he started partying until he hit rock bottom—a journey this next installment of Our America will cover. He moved to Santa Cruz in 2012 to be closer to his dad, who had become sober. Now Pearce is a chef at Front Street Kitchen and a body builder with a bunch of new friends. “Santa Cruz wrapped its arms around me,” he says.
GETTING MILKED Janet Hoover loved her job as a lactation consultant, helping breastfeeding mothers connect to their newborn children. And she was devastated when
Dominican Hospital nipped her contract, firing her after 15 years. “It’s been very hard. I was totally and completely blindsided by this whole thing,” says Hoover, who gave breastfeeding tips to new moms. Over the years, Santa Cruzans had latched on to the info Hoover was feeding them, and many supporters are saying it sucks that she was let go. 1500 supporters have signed a petition asking Dominican to reverse the decision. Her biggest fans have been holding rallies Wednesdays at Dominican at 10:30 a.m.—the same time Hoover used to hold weekly breastfeeding support groups. Hoover says she was blamed for a financial mistake made by an administrator that cost the company big bucks. Dominican won’t comment on personnel matters, but the hospital has posted the job vacancy on its website. | Jacob Pierce

DOLLA BILLS, Y’ALL Councilmembers Pamela Comstock and David Terrazas listen to a presentation from the fire department on its proposed $15 million budget.
PROFIT SHARES <12 CIRCUIT BOARD
EMPTY BUCKETS
Libraries everywhere are transitioning into becoming hightech community gathering places, rather than fuddy-duddy warehouses for books. Libraries director Teresa Landers says the county’s system— which gets a tiny fraction of its budget from the city, to the tune of a proposed $1.3 million this upcoming year—will be introducing either tablets or Chromebooks soon. Meanwhile, library administrators are planning for a likely ballot initiative in June 2015, and weighing whether to restructure—which would put the board in the hands of city managers, in the hopes of creating greater efficiency— or leave it in the hands of elected officials.
When the city backburnered plans for a desalination plant last year, the water department’s expenses didn’t disappear overnight. The department now has to incentivize conservation, after a dry winter in which we received just 1/25 of an inch of rain in the month of January. After rolling out water rationing this month, the city will begin offering water school classes for users who go over their allotted limit, but want to avoid charges. Water director Rosemary Menard is also hoping to start a new online metering system, to send data on how much water households are using back to the plant (or to a user’s smartphone) in real time. The department, which maintains 300 miles of pipes, has less
than half the fund balance it did three years ago—largely due to upgrades and repairs, including a $26 million replacement of the Bay Street Reservoir tanks, which will be finished this year. Rates last went up in 2011. CARING AND SHARING
In light of a sunnier budget outlook, several nonprofits are requesting funding increases over the cumulative $1 million they received last year. The Human Care Alliance came to a budget meeting to request a cost of living increase, in order to keep up with the rising costs of shelter, food and utilities. The council cut spending 10 percent on social programs in 2011, but will revisit the subject at its June 10 meeting.

last year, the cops are fully staffed—with 94 officers—for the first time in recent memory. Chief Kevin Vogel, who’s been given authority to over-hire, is looking to add a few more officers to create a buffer in the case of future retirements. The police also came up in discussions over the new gate at the Homeless Services Center, and the county’s Downtown Accountability Program, to which the city plans to kick $200,000. That should be a start for what could be a popular, if expensive, fix for the problem of chronic offenders downtown. Even some of the program’s most ardent supporters, including former Mayor Mike Rotkin, say it might run a bigger tab if the city wants to chip in for housing—an important part of keeping offenders off the streets.

have an authenticity of place,” says Dramov. “We don’t want to make it cute, or emulate other places.” Brad Porter and his team at Moffatt & Nichol Engineers, the firm that handled the engineering side of the plan, inspected the thousands of vertical piles that hold up the wharf, and analyzed the condition of the timber substructure, as well as the wharf’s weight capacity. Porter, who served as project manager for the engineering report, says the municipal wharf is in remarkable shape for a pier of its age and magnitude. “I have inspected a lot of timber waterfront structures, and when they get to be much over 40 to 50 years old, they are generally in a pretty deteriorated condition,” says Porter. “What we found is that the wharf was in surprisingly good shape.” He attributes the wharf’s good standing to the vigilant maintenance of the wharf’s staff, led by Bombaci. “It is rare that any entity, whether public or private, really dedicates that amount of labor to maintain a structure,” says Porter. “It’s kind of like the Golden Gate Bridge, where they’re continuously painting it, and that’s what it takes.” Porter also ran the numbers for the concepts and recommendations proposed by ROMA Design Group in the Wharf Master Plan, which was presented to the public at a community briefing held by the city’s Economic Development Department on May 19. Some at the briefing worried that the plan would transform the wharf into a commercialized abomination. “This seems to be a drastic remake bordering on exploitation,” community member Ralph Meyberg said. Steve Elb, owner of Olita’s Cantina and Grille, was consulted during the plan’s formation, and is behind the city’s efforts. “I like the idea that the wharf is getting a general facelift, which it could use,” says Elb. Dramov says the plan, which will go before the city council in September, is a template, and he expects further input. “We want to create opportunities for additional creativity every step of the way,” says Dramov.

alongside him at the regular gigs they play around town, including the Saturday Farmers Market on the Westside, where Rangell is now music coordinator. He candidly admits “I couldn't do it without her.” The husband and wife were often joined in the late ’90s and early 2000s by their two sons, Rafael and Benny, who both played fiddle with the Rhythm Rangellers. The two musicians make a distinctive visual impression. In colorful skirts and long braided hair, Emily’s focus is on both music and husband, who performs wearing vintage plaids and tweeds, a tie (always), and his signature shock of wild dark hair. Consulting their hand-lettered “tune lists” of songs and chord progressions, the duo perform a smooth segue of selections in varying keys and time signatures, customizing the repertoire as the venue requires. “Emily is a very strong person, and a tremendous influence in my life. We are a team—her chords on guitar form the basis of our music,” Rangell

"It was pretty interesting work, and pretty grueling,” she admits. She was doing folk dancing when she met Rangell, who was in Albuquerque getting his Master Printer rating at the Tamarind Institute. “I had a band called the Adobe Brothers,” Rangell recalls. “I played fiddle, guitar, mandolin, and I started getting to know the music of New Mexico.” It was a pivotal time for them both, playing Cajun and New Mexican music for contra and square dance with a new group Bayou Seco, and learning from masters like Cleofes Ortiz. Insisting that he's no ethnomusicologist, Paul Rangell prefers to make music, not study it. These days, Rangell plays with a variety of regular partners in the community, virtuosi who include mandolinist Irene Herrmann, fiddler Laurie Rivin and concertina player Janet Dows, as well as visiting players who care to sit in. But Abbink is his closest musical companion, and can be heard strumming

For many years, Abbink was up on the hill, too, teaching first in American Studies “off and on” and then for the Stevenson Core course, until she retired this year. “If American Studies were still there, I might still be up there too,” she admits.

Growing up in Los Angeles, Rangell came up to go to UCSC in 1972. He started playing guitar when he was nine years old, at McCabe's Guitar Shop in Santa Monica. Inspired by

his teacher David Zeitlin, Rangell devoured old folk songs. “I especially loved the Phil Ochs, Tom Paxton and Carter Family songs,” Rangell says. “I even had a rock ‘n’ roll band for junior high school dances. It was 1967, a big time for folk music. Blonde on Blonde had just come out,” he recalls, eyebrows cocked for emphasis. “Dylan was one of my heroes.” His older brother was already on the hippie path. “He lived in the Haight. I went out to visit, and suddenly had the sense of belonging to a bigger purpose. That’s the lure of playing vintage music. Togetherness. When you play this music, you can always connect with people—you belong to a club that’s expressing emotions, qualities that move people.”

ON THE ROAD A few weeks ago Rangell, his wife and frequent mandolin partner Herrmann played at the Festival of Mandolins in San Francisco, a gathering of greats in the ethnic music kingdom, where Rangell was the featured performer. The quest for folkloric fellowship has taken them from Quebec to Mexico, to Franceâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Le Grand Bal de l'Europe, Pinewoods Festival in Massachusetts, the Santa Fe Banjo and Fiddle Festival, and beyond. Every year for the past 20 years, Rangell has performed and given workshops at the Festival of American Fiddle Masters in Port Townsend, Washington. For seven years, Rangell, Abbink and family also took part in El Teatro
Campesinoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Christmas plays, driving to San Juan Bautista several times a week in fall and winter for rehearsals. The Rangell sons literally grew up playing music. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They didn't know that everybody didn't play music together,â&#x20AC;? Abbink grins. Rangell reckons their duo repertoire includes at least 250 numbers by now. The people's music of Cuba, Italy, Puerto Rico, New Mexico, Sicily, as well as the old Celtic string band music, by way of Appalachia. Rumbas, mambos, waltzes, arias, tangos, boleros, mazurkas, polkas, tarantellas. The romantic folkloric music of Euro-Hispanico-Anglo cultures. It's all in their fingertips. Rangell refreshes the repertoire by â&#x20AC;&#x153;pouring through old archives. We have a big record library. And we go to the source, studying masters like New Mexico fiddler Cleofes Ortiz and Riccardo Tunzi.â&#x20AC;?

<31Rangell maintains that he needs to perform in order to keep the music fresh in his mind. Besides, he doesn't read music. “I like to go to the source and work with masters. Each year, we go up to Washington for a week, I teach there, and I enjoy playing with old friends and masters.” He sighs. “Now I'm becoming a master geezer myself.” The music on his new Noche Azul CD displays the range of Rangell's expertise. One piece, “Mazurka in D,” is particularly haunting. “It connects me to the old country,” Rangell admits. “It's both melancholy and joyful. Starts out minor, but then has a major key resolution.” The striking piece contains “lots of dramatic, evocative, melodic associations.” Its effect lies somewhere between grappa and black velvet, a momentary showcase for the emotional power of music.

No longer happy with the atmosphere on the hill, the musician is content to have stepped out of his longtime role as teacher of intaglio. “I haven't given up printmaking,” Rangell reminds me with a steely look. “I'm just really concentrating on music right now. We've produced two major CDs in two years. I produced them, organized them, it was a lot of
work. These are our creative impulses now. It’s great.” The Craftsman home Paul and Emily restored together is a museum-quality shrine to their shared passion for authentic folk music. Historic photos of performers line the walls, interspersed with Rangell's bold lithographic prints. Bookcases bulge with antique music texts, and the living room is lined with the couple's collection of antique stringed instruments from all over the world. "We've done detective work together to find this repertoire—it's a great powwow of Mexican, European, Latin American music,” he says. “Making music is my religious practice. Communion is a good word for it.” For years, no university party, celebration, BBQ, or retirement occurred without the Rangells filling the hall with toe-tapping music. “We just love to play, and make a little scratch on the side,” he says. Considered one of the living masters of old time folk music, Rangell will be in residence once again this summer in Port Townsend, and then next year at the Harvey Foundation in Venice, Italy, where he will contact and perform with traditional musicians of the region. Having arrived at the center of his life, Rangell continues to exert his rough charm making music each day with people he loves. Sounds a whole lot like happiness. Q

Local comedian Richard Stockton will pair with historian Ross Gibson to provide partygoers with a historical look at the Rio, interspersed with comedy, historic videos and photographs, a barbershop quartet and other live music. Between the libations and the show, there will be a planned
blackout in the theater. The live radio broadcast that KSCO aired on the day the Rio first opened will play over the speakers. When the lights come on, Bedford jokes, it will be 1949, and everyone is expected to “talk it, sing it, and goof it.” “It’s not about us today, we’re the current curators, but it’s only been 14 years out of 65,” he says. “There is tons of history that I don’t >32

“We have managed to get to a point where we’re in the running for these world-class artists.” — Laurence Bedford <31
even know, and that’s really what we’re celebrating here.” While that may be true, it’s fair to say that Bedford has seen the Rio at her best and worst. Barely maintained, and showing only second and third run movies, the Rio was going out of business when Bedford purchased the property in 2000. David Anton Savage, Bedford’s right-hand man and house manager for the past 14 years, recalls embarking on the long journey to refurbish the Rio. “It took me two-and-a-half years of mopping to actually see the floor,” deadpans Savage. “When we got in there it was like, ‘wow, this place is filthy, stinky, rat-infested, and allaround busted up.’ It took years of working on the place to recover from the reputation she had.” The Rio was a big joke to the public at the time, Savage remembers. He recalls a DeCinzo cartoon about the Rio, in which an ax has been thrown through the movie screen and kids are being held down in their seats by rats. Two men in suits are in the back, remarking that they don't understand why the place is doing so badly. “Now, after years of labor, I get stopped by strangers who thank me for everything we have done for the Rio,” says Savage. “It was strange in the beginning to hear people acknowledge that she had become a cultural gem.” And she certainly has created a category all her own in Santa Cruz. With a 700-person capacity, the Rio is the only local mid-size venue offering live music, films, lectures, community events, fundraisers, and even weddings. After hosting widely celebrated performers like Joan Baez, Beck, Andrew Bird, Pink Martini and Joan Jett, it’s clear that the Rio is now on the entertainment industry’s radar. “It’s been a gradual climb, and we’re not a world-class facility by any means,” says Bedford. “But we have
managed to get to a point where we’re in the running for these world-class artists.” The Rio’s popularity is not based solely on the ability to draw in big-name talent, but also on the management’s contributions to the community. The philosophy behind the theater, according to Bedford, is specializing in being unspecialized; i.e., being flexible enough to accommodate (or at least try to accommodate) any kind of event or performance. That interest in working with the community has paid off in spades. This past February, a Santa Cruz man with a history of mental illness and drug abuse drove his car into the Rio Theatre’s ticket booth and lobby doors. He emerged from the car and ended his life by cutting his neck and chest with shards of broken glass from the accident. The incident rocked the community, and left Bedford and Savage scrambling to fix the damage before a weekend of scheduled shows. “The staff and the community just rallied behind us. I had people show up at 4 o’clock in the morning to help me just button her up and assess the damage,” says Bedford. “We had a show two days later, and we didn’t cancel. I think the fact that we were able to pull out of that tragedy, and be celebrating our 65th in tip-top shape a few months later, is pretty cool.” It’s clear that the Rio was built to last—for the past 65 years, and as Bedford hopes, another 65 more. “We’re not the most modern facility,” says Bedford. “But we’ll kill you with kindness and friendliness, and all the other things that make it worthwhile.” The Rio Theatre’s birthday party will be held on Saturday, June 8, at 1205 Soquel Ave, Santa Cruz, 423-8209. 7p.m.; free. If you have stories or photographs of the Rio that you want to share at the party, write to 1949@riotheatre.com.

IT’S A SETUP Santa Cruz photographer Ron Jones says some of the best photos he’s ever gotten came out of something going wrong.
Ron Jones: Lens Craft JUNE 4-10, 2014 | GTWEEKLY.COM | SANTACRUZ.COM

P
rizefighter handsome, Ron Jones has been making pictures most of his life. A classic California dreamer, he's taken his camera all over the world—through the adventure years of the ’70s and ’80s, and the belttightening ’90s, up to present-day. With his edgy mix of skill and luck, Jones’ career has managed to weather divorce, recessions, client vagaries and the digital revolution. Through 30 years in Santa Cruz, Jones has amassed a long list of clients from academia, the corporate realm and the arts. Their satisfaction has been won by his exceptional eye, and his ability to wait, relax, and engage with his subjects. For all his physical intensity, this photographer is a man with a great, sensitive heart.
“Yeah, and I know I'm a dinosaur,” he says with a chuckle. He’s an avowed devotée of the old-school Ansel Adams template, where the darkroom was the magic chamber and the photographic process was all finesse, no Photoshop. “The transition to digital was one of the hardest things I've ever done,” he admits with exasperation. “I loved the alchemy that happens in the dark room. Now I spend more time on the computer than I do actually taking pictures.” Surrounded by riveting faces— his black and white images taken in Java, Mexico, Bali, Thailand, and Laos—Jones laments that he’s stopped travelling as much since “UC lost its money in 2007.” The university was his main client,
he explains, and commercial work supported his international documentary work. Until it didn't. “I thought I was going to be Irving Penn or Diane Arbus,” he says, flashing a broad grin. And indeed, his work is part of collections from SFMOMA to Stanford to a current exhibit at UC Santa Barbara. A native of Houston, Jones left Texas at the age of 19. “My parents kicked me out when I didn't accept a full scholarship for college football,” he says. Surfing beckoned, and after spending summers in California and Mexico, Jones moved to San Diego, where a photo class at Palomar Junior College changed his life. Flash forward through divorce, a girl from Santa Cruz and becoming a father. He hung
out in Carmel, became friends with the Westons and met photographer Paul Schraub, with whom he worked for many years and still shares a studio in downtown Santa Cruz. Jones is the official photographer for Kuumbwa, the Cabrillo Festival of Contemporary Music, and a long list of steady clients. Faces are the heart of Jones’ work. “You get real close to the people,” he says, moving a few inches from my face. “I look for the accidental. Some of the best photos I've ever gotten were when things went wrong.” Like when the subject failed to show up, when he was too slow preparing his camera, when he had to improvise. “So you just travel on,” he says. “Get in the car and go get the picture you never planned.”

Building Harmony
S
ince forming in 2011, Americana/folk duo the Milk Carton Kids have released three albums, including 2013’s The Ash & Clay—and to hear Joey Ryan tell it, that album was the culmination of a gradual growing process that had been slowly building up on their first two records. “The first thing [Kenneth Pattengale and I] did together was [2011’s] Retrospect, which was songs we’d written separately, and arranged for the duo and performed together,” he says. “And then [2012’s]
Prologue was the first time we’d written together for the duo, but still, a lot of them felt like one or the other of our songs, where one person would take the lead and there would be harmonies on the choruses.” Once it came time to write Ash, they had a very clear idea of what they wanted to accomplish, and how they would make that happen. “We wanted to push the limits of the duo, so the vast majority of the songs on The Ash & Clay have two-part harmonies the whole way through instead of just bringing in
a harmony on the chorus,” Ryan says. “And we’d given ourselves the mandate to be more outward-facing in the perspective we were writing from. [Many] of the songs have to do with characters which are not us, and point to various social or philosophical ideas, rather than introspective and emotional themes, like what we had done before.” Ash is guided by an indelible sense of melody, both with respect to vocals and melodies. Whether it is the more upbeat folk of “Hope of a Lifetime,” or more measured, easygoing folk tracks
The Milk Carton Kids will perform at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday, June 17, Kuumbwa Jazz, 320-2 Cedar Street, Santa Cruz. Tickets are $25$35. 427-2227.

Folk duo the Milk Carton Kids takes success one step at a time | BY BRIAN PALMER
like “Hear Them Loud” or “Memphis,” the album is a truly stirring piece of work. And even on “Heaven”—a dizzying track which is marked by groovy, funky notes, and Ryan and Pattengale singing at their loudest, sounding like a two-man Holy Ghost Party—they demonstrate their ability to get you dancing. It makes for a nice juxtaposition with some of the album’s more serious content, like the album’s title track, which quietly bemoans the sad state of affairs in America. Getting to explore broader themes than they had in the past—especially when they were solo singer-songwriters who were focusing largely on writing about their emotions and feelings—was freeing for the duo. “It was liberating, motivating,” Ryan says. “I don’t think it was challenging. I don’t think [Ash] is a political record. Some of the songs are just about personal relationships and people, and there is introspection for sure, but at some point we just started to think of ourselves as teammates and we pushed each other in that direction. We welcomed the pressure and came up with some songs we wouldn’t otherwise have come up with.” Despite the growth that Ryan and Pattengale display on Ash however, Ryan does not revel in their progress as a band. He avoids patting himself on the back almost to the point of being self-effacing with respect to the band. This unwillingness to draw attention to himself is perhaps what keeps him grounded enough to not buy into the Grammy-nominated band’s hype, or the fact that they were recently nominated by the Americana Music Association for Best Duo/Group. “I think [the album is] a logical step, and not a big step, either,” says Ryan. “We still stuck with two guitars and two voices, and a lot of the basics of the dynamic between us are preserved. If you listen to Prologue and then The Ash & Clay, I don’t think it could be said to be a departure. It was a small step forward. It was what I expected out of us.”

oan Osbourne’s 1995 hit “One of Us” helped to define the wispy, female-flower-power sound of the Lillith Fair era. Unfortunately, some of her contemporaries let the era define them. Osbourne though, turned out to be full of surprises. First, there was her remarkably soulful work in the 2002 documentary Standing in the Shadows of Motown, about unsung Motown heroes the Funk Brothers, and her emergence around the same time as a preeminent interpreter of other people’s songs confused some of her mainstream audience. They shouldn’t have been so surprised, since even “One of Us” was a cover (it was written by Hooters frontman Eric Bazilian). But since the rise of singer-songwriters in the ’60s, there’s been a certain stigma around singer-songwriters putting the emphasis on “singer” instead of “songwriter.” “In pop music, it’s sort of been looked down upon in the last 40 years or so if you don’t write your own material,” Osbourne tells GT. “It still has a little bit of an aura of ‘you’re not a real artist.’” But over the course of the last decade, Osbourne has actually done
a remarkable job of balancing covers and original songs, across a broad and twisting range of genres, from country to Christmas songs. In that time, she’s grown by leaps an bounds as an interpreter—her last album of covers, 2012’s soul/R&B tourde-force Bring It On Home, was her best. So what makes for a great cover song, in Osbourne’s mind? She has a couple rules. First, “if you can’t do anything with it, leave it alone.” But even if she thinks she can bring something new and different to a song, she knows thinking alone will only take her so far. “You can conceptualize it all you want,” she says. “But the song has to play you.” With her new album, Love and Hate, she’s swung back around to originals, with a complex, emotional record. But there’s one rule she lives by that applies to every song she does, whether or not she wrote it. “I try to only perform songs that I love,” she says. “If you put a song on a record, there’s a good chance you’re going to be singing that song hundreds of times a year.” Joan Osbourne performs Friday, June 6, at 8 p.m. at the Rio Theatre, 1205 Soquel Avenue, Santa Cruz. $28/gen, $42/gold. 423-8209.

Artist Belle Yang expresses her story of being born in Taiwan, growing up in Japan, and immigrating with her family to the U.S. at the age of seven through her paintings, illustrations and graphic novels. Yang studied at the Beijing Academy of Traditional Chinese Painting, where she learned traditional ink paintings and folk art. Yang’s Chinese first name, Xuan, means “forget sorrow.” Appropriately, her artwork depicts her inspirational journey of immigration through family stories and childhood memories. This show was developed by the Bakersfield Museum of Art in collaboration with the Santa Cruz Museum of Art and History.

WEDNESDAY 6/4 ROZ CHAST
JUNE 4-10, 2014 | GTWEEKLY.COM | SANTACRUZ.COM
Chast, the brilliant New Yorker cartoonist, recently came out with her first memoir. Titled Canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t We Talk About Something More Pleasant, the memoir explores Chastâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s loss of her elderly parents. With a poignant mix of humor and sadness, the story captures these issues from a number of all-too-true angles. Chast explores such themes as the adult child accepting a parental role, aging parents leaving a family home for an institution, and hiring strangers to provide the most personal care. She captures her experience through four-color cartoons, family photos, and documents. Chast will be on-hand for a reading, book signing and Q&A.

LOVE YOUR
LOCAL BAND
THE WOODEN SUNS Some artists like making concept albums, or at least intentionally creating a collection of songs with an identifiable narrative thread or theme to it. But Denys Kozakis, who sings and plays rhythm guitar in the folk rock group the Wooden Suns, prefers to let the creative process move him rather than control the process himself. “Mostly I just write and see what happens,” Kozakis says. “A lyric will come to me—I usually don’t know where it comes from, and I’ll find a guitar part I like that fits with the lyric, and then I just let it take me wherever it does.”
JUNE 4-10, 2014 | GTWEEKLY.COM | SANTACRUZ.COM
So what kind of material does Kozakis write about? Well, it varies, but he has noticed one element making its way into some of the band’s material. “I live up in the woods near Felton, and the woods, the forest, that has a way of creeping in there,” he says with a laugh.
52
The quartet formed in early 2013, and has been hard at work honing their skills. An EP is in the works—Kozakis says he hopes to release it by the end of the year, though there is no firm date yet. You can get a great sense of what to expect from the EP by checking out “Where the Days Find Me” on both their Facebook and Bandcamp pages. The rock track introduces Kozakis’ humble, philosophical side as he talks about the song being older than him. “It’s a song about being present and living in the moment,” says Kozakis. “Like stopping to listen to the river.” God knows we could all use a message like that. Bring on that EP, guys! | BRIAN PALMER INFO: The Wooden Suns will perform at 7 p.m. Sunday, June 8. Don Quixote’s, 6275 Highway 9, Felton. $10. 603-2294.

THE DAMNED The Damned weren’t the most famous ’70s punk band to come out of London, but they actually beat the Sex Pistols and the Clash in two critical areas: they were the first to release an LP, and they toured the States before any other British punk band. The band’s wild garage-punk sound was also a key influence on the early ‘80s American hardcore movement. By 1979, they were playing around with more psychedelic sounds, and by the ’80s they embraced keyboards, slower rhythms and a horror vibe. Singer Dave Vanian always looked like a vampire, but by 1986, when they released their most famous single, “Eloise,” he’d become a goth icon. AARON CARNES
INFO: 8 p.m. The Catalyst, 1011 Pacific Avenue, Santa Cruz. $22/adv, $25/door. 423-1336.
BLUEPRINT All it took was for Zach Friend to blow Santa Cruzans’ hearts and minds with his acoustic guitar at the Planet Cruz show last November,
and the masses were convinced he must return to music. The overwhelming consensus: if the former police spokesperson and electric axe slinger didn’t get his old garage rock band Blueprint back together, his colleagues on the board of supervisors would be forced to pass a resolution forcing the group to reunite for one more show, if not a 10-year world tour that would bring all races together in peace and harmony. Just kidding. This is an unrelated Blueprint, a rapper from Ohio, who’s sharing the bill with Santa Cruz favorite, Eliquate. JACOB PIERCE INFO: 8:30 p.m. Moe’s Alley, 1535 Commercial Way, Santa Cruz. 479-1854.
FRI/6
DEAD ON LIVE Not every Grateful Dead song is a 15-minute psychedelic jam. In fact, in 1970 they produced some of their best material with two albums, Working Man’s Dead and American Beauty, which were both heavily influenced by folk, blues and bluegrass. These albums are full of short, mellow roots tunes and rich with gorgeous vocal harmo-
nies. Though it may be too late to see the Grateful Dead now, Dead On Live are making their West Coast debut this Friday, playing note for note replications of the Grateful Dead songbook. For this show, they are playing Workingman’s Dead and American Beauty in their entirety. AC INFO: 8 p.m. Kuumbwa Jazz Center, 320 Cedar Street, Santa Cruz. $20. 427-2227.
KRIS DELMHORST Kris Delmhorst isn't terribly well known in larger music circles, but in the folk scene, she's a familiar and beloved artist, spoken of with phrases like, "She's so great," and "I love her." This big-fish, small-pond syndrome is the lot for many an acoustic songslinger, and Delmhorst seems to take it in stride—she just keeps putting out interesting, engaging music that reflects her life and her loves. Her latest album, Blood Test, which is her first in six years, sees the Boston-based singer-songwriter doing what she does best: playing heartfelt music that touches the humanness in us all.

BE OUR GUEST LUCIANO As a young artist, roots reggae sensation Luciano had some early success, and even a number one hit with “Shake It Up Tonight.” But from there, he took off in a different direction, away from love songs and showy outfits toward a focused consciousness in his music and his life. A devout Rastafarian, Luciano sings of Jah, political injustice, the perils of Babylon, and civil rights. Over the last 20-plus years, he has become a torchbearer for the second generation of Jamaican roots artists, and a staple of contemporary reggae. | Cat Johnson INFO: 8 p.m. Tuesday, June 17.

SARAH LEE GUTHRIE & JOHNNY IRION Sarah Lee Guthrie is the daughter of Arlo Guthrie, and the granddaughter of Woody Guthrie. Now that that’s out of the way, let’s talk about her musical partnership with husband and South Carolinian indie-rocker Johnny Irion (who is apparently related to John Steinbeck). The duo have been writing folk tunes for the better part of the decade, but switched gears
on their latest album, 2013’s Wassaic Way. They enlisted Wilco’s Jeff Tweedy (along with help from Wilco multi-instrumentalist Pat Sansone) to produce the record. The foursome worked together intimately on the material, even reworking a lot of the songs that Guthrie and Irion brought in. The result is a very Beatles-esque alt-country album.

GUIDED BY VOICES This iconic indie rock band has always been prolific. During their first goround, before breaking up in 2004, they released 16 records in 17 years. And since reuniting in 2010, little has changed: they’ve since released six new albums, including Cool Planet, released last month, and a smattering of EPs, singles and Robert Pollard solo records. During their final tour before breaking up in 2004, at least nine cities declared a Guided By Voices Day in their city. How’s that for respect?

Nearly 40 years into his career, Poncho Sanchez only seems to be getting better. The energetic conga player, singer, and Latin jazz band leader has released over 30 albums, and even won a Grammy for Best Latin Jazz Album in 2000 for Latin Soul. Sanchez and his ensemble have dazzled audiences worldwide with their stunning ability to seamlessly transition from Latin Jazz to blues, and from soul music to Afro-Cuban music. Regardless of the genre label you might try to attach to his work, you can be sure that Sanchez and his ensemble will make you dance. His latest work, 2012’s Live in Hollywood, celebrates his 30-plus years as a Concord Records recording artist. BP
harmonic tones on his bass. When the crowd was lifted to the heights of appreciation for his delicate touch, he dropped an absolutely sick bassline and took the song off in a completely unexpected, bliss-inducing direction. So it goes with Wooten. The longtime bassist for Bela Fleck and the Flecktones—and an accomplished, Grammy-winning bandleader—he is the consummate musician, with mind-blowing technicality, and the restraint to know when one well-placed note will do.

F
or 40 years, feminists have complained about the sanitized fairy tales forcefed to little girls in Disney cartoons—the ones that promise a handsome prince and true love’s kiss. And over the last couple of years, the Mouse House seems to be getting a clue. Brave featured an independent-minded princess who didn’t get—or need—a prince. In last year’s mega-hit Frozen, an ironic plot reversal was built around the (mistaken) notion of true love’s kiss. With Maleficent, the studio blithely rewrites one of its own vintage cartoons, Sleeping Beauty— or at least provides a bracketing story around events in the earlier movie that pretty much changes everything. The narrative stumbles
now and then, but overall it’s a savvy and entertaining live-action revision, told from the viewpoint of the so-called evil fairy Maleficent, formerly the designated villain. With the formidable Angelina Jolie in the title role, we get a character who is both deliciously wicked (when she needs to be) and surprisingly, believably tender as her side of the story plays out. In this version, we meet Maleficent as a young fairy (Isobelle Molloy) growing up blissfully happy in the moors, a verdant haven for all manner of magical CGI critters adjacent to a kingdom of humans. For some reason never explained, Maleficent is blessed with majestic hawk-like wings as tall as she is, which enable her to tumble
around joyously in the sky, but also to swoop down on anyone who threatens her precious moors. As a child, she befriends a human boy, Stefan, who strays into the moors one day. Over the years, as they grow up (and Maleficent morphs into Jolie), they become close friends—until the day he betrays her. It’s not simply that his love is not true enough, but as a grown man (now played by Sharlto Copley), driven by ambition to inherit the kingdom, he commits an act so heinous and horrifying against her, it hardens her heart and sets her on the road to villainy. When he becomes King Stefan, and he and his queen celebrate the birth of their daughter, Aurora, Maleficent crashes the party and
delivers her famous curse: on her sixteenth birthday, Aurora will prick her finger on a spinning wheel and fall into a trance-like sleep from which she will never wake. This is the "familiar" part of the story, except things don’t play out the way we expect in Linda Woolverton’s clever script. Not to give away the best surprises, but Aurora, raised in secret by three fairies in a cottage in the wood, grows up in proximity to Maleficent—whom she calls her fairy godmother. When Aurora (now played by the dewy Elle Fanning) nears her sixteenth birthday, Maleficent actually tries to revoke her curse, but can’t. The film marks the directing debut of visual effects wizard and production designer Robert Stromberg (Oscar-winning art director on Avatar and Alice In Wonderland). The effects are sophisticated, especially the transformations of Maleficent’s shape-shifting crow familiar (nicely played by Sam Riley in human form). Also cunning is the way the faces of actresses Imelda Staunton, Lesley Manville, and Juno Temple are morphed onto tiny winged bodies as the guardian fairies— although too much time is wasted on their slapstick Three Stoogettes routines when they switch to human size. And there’s something ugly, gratuitous, and out-of-character in the savage way winged Maleficent keeps diving into the fray when an invading army attacks the moors early on—especially since giant bog creatures of trees, rock, and mud seem so capable of defending themselves. Short shrift is also given to the story’s central motif, the death-like sleep into which Aurora falls when the curse is fulfilled. But despite some missteps, the film’s fresh ideas (including its notion of who the real Sleeping Beauty is) help this radical retake cast its spell. MALEFICENT *** (out of four) With Angelina Jolie, Elle Fanning, Sharlto Copley, Sam Riley, Juno Temple and Lesley Manville. Written by Linda Woolverton. Directed by Robert Stromberg. A Disney release. Rated PG. 97 minutes.

But each time he gets a little smarter about the enemy, and a little closer to turning the tide. Emily Blunt, Brendan Gleeson, Bill Paxton, and Noah Taylor co-star for director Doug Liman. (PG-13) Starts Friday.

NOW PLAYING THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2 Andrew Garfield returns for another outing as Peter Parker, college student-turned-web-slinging crime fighter, in this second installment of the rebooted franchise. Jamie Foxx is on board as powerful villain, Electro, with shady ties to OsCorp, the monolithic empire founded by the
father of Peter’s best friend, Harry Osborne (Dane DeHaan). Emma Stone is back as love interest Gwen, and Sally Field returns as Aunt May for returning director Marc Webb. (PG-13) 140 minutes. BELLE Newcomer Gugu Mbatha-Raw gives a winning performance in this engaging, handsomely-mounted drawing room drama about a reallife young woman of color who may have had an impact on the legal campaign to end slavery in England. The daughter of an English naval captain and a slave woman, Dido Elizabeth Belle was raised in gentility by her father’s aristocratic uncle, the Lord Chief Justice of England, in the late 18th Century. Anglo-African filmmaker Amma Asante mixes abolitionist politics with (largely invented) romance for an affecting tale of a woman’s search for identity and a glimpse into a political era in which men of principle still dared to confront the moral issues of the day. (PG) 105 minutes. (***)—Lisa Jensen. BLENDED Adam Sandler teams up with Drew Barrymore for the third time in this romantic comedy about two single parents and their respective kids thrown together at an African safari resort for families. Longtime Sandler director Frank Coraci takes the helm. (PG-13) 117 minutes. CHEF Jon Favreau wrote and directed this dramadey in which he stars as a top chef in Los Angeles who quits his job at a tony restaurant over creative differences with the owner (Dustin Hoffman), and decides to go on the road with a food truck, his ex (Sofia Vergara), his buddy (John Leguizamo) and his son. (R) 115 minutes. GODZILLA To mark the 60th anniversary of the first time the big guy in the rubber suit tottered across the Tokyo landscape, Godzilla rises again in this eco-conscious reboot from Gareth Edwards (Monsters). Trying to stay true to the Toho original (but with more sophisticated effects), Edwards promises a monster spawned in the muck of a polluted planet and thirsting for revenge.

THE GRAND BUDAPEST HOTEL There’s plenty of fun and whimsy to be had here in Wed Anderson’s delightful new comedy. Much like Moonrise Kingdom unraveled in a quirky splendor, so, too, does The Grand Budapest Hotel, which chronicles the unlikely friendship between a revered European hotel concierge, Gustave H (Ralph Fiennes) and his lobby boy. Everything from the era—between two menacing wars—to the fictional setting of the Republic of Zubrowka pepper the tale, which unfolds, layer by layer (a story within a story within a story) much like a Russian doll. Owen Wilson, Tilda Swinton, Jeff Goldblum, Willem Dafoe and other Anderson grads join the fun. R) 100 minutes. (+++1/2)—Greg Archer.
MILLION DOLLAR ARM Jon Hamm stars in this (more or less) true story about a sports agent who decides to revitalize his flagging career with a grandstanding PR stuntóa trip to India to recruit a young cricket pitcher he can groom into a major league baseball star.

FOOD & DRINK are “really nicked up.” He suggests steaming these delicate spring spuds for 10-15 minutes—“don't overdo it”—then putting them into a bowl, adding butter, sprinkling sea salt, and grinding in some black pepper. Martin likes to chop up some fresh dill and add it to the mix. Then mash the whole thing with a fork. Sit down and eat. The potato variety Parsons grows at Everett Family Farm is called Red Gold, “and it is a creamy textured yellow flesh variety that yields 70-75 days from planting. Just about the earliest variety on the planet.” Now you know what you better not miss next Saturday at the Westside Farmers Market!

ocktail of the Week: the Carraway's Envy at Motiv. Light, filled with the perfume of summer, and a few exotic ingredients, this beautiful jade-green drink held my attention throughout an afterwork catch-up with my colleague Hannah. My cocktail started with a foundation of Hendrick’s Gin—gin trumps vodka in my book— to which was added what tasted like equal portions of Pernod Absinthe and Chartreuse. Then some muddled mint, cucumber and lime. Shaken with ice, poured into a glass, topped
with a fresh mint leaf. It’s $9 worth of soothing stress relief and delicious palate pampering. Motiv's upper room—the former Pearl Alley Bistro—is a great retreat if you go early enough to avoid the herds. A serious dance club scene is alive seven nights in the downstairs, but for cocktails and delicious bar food head on up those stairs (oh, if they could talk).
NEW POTATOES @ WESTSIDE FARMERS MARKET From my earth-loving informant and master gardener Orin Martin comes the last word on new potatoes.
Turns out that Everett Family Farm (now farmed by former UCSC Farm & Garden apprentice program alumna Emily Parsons), is harvesting what Martin calls “the real deal.” Martin wants me to alert my readers that Saturday Farmers Market patrons will be able to take away new potatoes “dug fresh that day, or the day before—they’re not the ersatz new potatoes you see in stores, which are simply small storage potatoes.” Martin explains that “real” new potatoes are young, thin-skinned, small and almost sweet tasting—hence their skins

love to open up a nice sparkler when friends come to visit—and a drop of bubbly always puts one in a celebratory mood. For about $20, Kirigin Cellars’ sparkling wine is a pretty good deal. Naturally fermented, with a secondary fermentation before bottling, it’s not too sweet and has a touch of finesse present in higherend sparklers. Using the Charmat method, also used in the making of Prosecco, the second fermentation is done in a large stainless steel tank— rather than in the bottle, as with the traditional méthode champenoise. So if you’re looking for a nice sparkler without breaking the bank, then this one fits the bill. And California certainly tops the list in making Champagne-style bubblies. Kirigin Cellars was founded in 1916, and is one of California’s oldest wineries. They are particularly famous for a very sexy dessert wine called Vino de Mocha, which is infused with coffee, chocolate and a touch of orange. Kirigin calls it “the Kissing Wine,” which is very appropriate, I’d say. Tasting is always complimentary at Kirigin, and they don’t use outside distributors, meaning you can only buy their wines direct from them, but the prices are quite reasonable because of this. Even better deals can be found if you buy six bottles (30 percent discount), or a case (50 percent discount). And three or more cases will cost you a flat $100 per case. They also make a Luigi’s Pride 100 percent red wine vinegar for $9.90 a bottle.

DOUGHNUT MISS IT Brian Christie (left) and Reilly Meehan of Bespoke Doughnuts will do an event at Hey Pop Out on June 6.
Bespoke Doughnuts Pop-Up BY AARON CARNES

oughnuts are an American staple. But San Francisco’s Bespoke Doughnuts is completely flipping the whole idea on its head with flavors like Roasted Pear and Walnut, Herb Pesto and Hummus and Honey Lemon Mint. The company was formed last year by Santa Cruz ex-pat Reilly Meehan and partner Brian Christie. They are joining forces this Friday with Hey Pop Up, which is run by Assembly owners Kendra Baker and Zachary Davis, who throw spontaneous, unique food events in the room next to Assembly. We asked Meehan about his unusual doughnut business, and their upcoming Santa Cruz pop up.
GT: Why did you choose doughnuts to experiment with? REILLY MEEHAN: I’ve always enjoyed taking classic favorites—like chicken pot pie, let’s say—and turning them into something unrecognizable. It looks like a chicken pot pie, but doesn’t taste like a chicken pot pie. So for me, to be able to deconstruct a doughnut and to have it be something totally novel has been really fun.
What are some of the doughnuts you’ll be doing? When we do a pop up, we offer
three different doughnuts. The first one is light and fruity—we just did one with peaches and raspberries. That was our take on the classic peach melba, which is a dessert with peaches, vanilla ice cream and raspberry sauce. One of my favorite savory doughnuts is the pulled pork.
Do you prefer spontaneous food events like Hey Pop Up, as opposed to a more consistent spot? Brian and I didn’t want to jump in to trying to open a shop, and not have any idea if there’s a market for what we’re doing, or what kind of price point we’d sell it at. By doing these popups, it allows us to test all those things. We change the doughnuts every pop up we do. We can see which ones get good responses, which ones get bad responses. All of our doughnuts are fried to order. So as opposed to a regular doughnut shop where you pick your stale doughnut that’s been sitting in a shelf for a while, so you’re always ensured a warm doughnut. BESPOKE DOUGHNUTS will do a pop-up event at Hey Pop Up, 1108 Pacific Ave., Santa Cruz, on Friday, June 6 at 5:30 p.m. Free admission. 316-0790.

GEMINI FESTIVAL PREPARATIONS
Esoteric Astrology as news for week June 5 – 11, 2014 The New Group of World Servers is preparing for the Gemini Solar Festival occurring next Thursday, June 12, at the time of the full moon. This is the third of three spring festivals (Aries, Taurus, Gemini), and is accompanied by the cosmic forces of reconstruction. The festival is also called the Festival of Humanity and World Invocation Day. This world prayer is the mantra of direction for humanity. We prepare for the Gemini Festival through confidence (steadying our lower rational mind), aspiration (aspiring to participate with the New Group of World Servers) and dedication (holding our mind steady in the Light). Saturday morning the 2nd Mercury retrograde (3 degrees Cancer) of 2014 begins (4:56 a.m. Pacific time), remaining retrograde until July 1. The next Mercury retrograde occurs October 4-25 in Scorpio/ Libra. It’s good to plan for retrogrades beforehand. Why? During retrogrades it’s not advisable to sign
ARIES Mar21–Apr20 Study is boring at first to initiating Aries. They need to start things, always be first, not get too deep, and use their wit and sharp mind for mental bravery and sports metaphors. In class, before the teacher completes a question, notice the first hand waving is Aries. Later in life, this very same Aries will become the brilliant wit, philosopher extraordinaire and the one who synthesizes (Ray 7) vast information. During retrogrades, they can feel puzzled.
TAURUS Apr21–May21 They don't talk much, and can't take pop quizzes or write long paragraphs. They're deep thinkers and one never knows if or when they'll be ready to do a class project. They gather information and when older, have more money and real estate than any of us, saving everything for the seventh generation. Ask them about real estate, banking, wealth and gold. They illuminate us.

contracts, initiate new plans or studies, make major decisions or large purchases (car, house, appliances, investments, etc.). Our minds shift and change after retrogrades. During retrogrades we see the world through a haze or veil. Things break down, connections and communications are difficult. We absorb information more slowly. Everyone’s internal—except for those born in Mercury retrograde. These are the “silent ones.” When Mercury retrogrades, they begin to talk endlessly. It’s best during retrogrades to review information, reorganize, reorder, reassess and reflect upon previous agendas, decisions, plans and studies. Our minds are now overflowing with too much information gathered since the last retrograde. During Mercury retrograde, revelations occur. Clear the mind to begin gathering new information when Mercury is direct again. order to bring forth harmony and balance. But only after destroying the harmony that previously existed. Learning for Libra is about having many relationships. In a group, they lead by understanding how everything connects. The optimum learning environment for Libra contains flowers, calm colors, art, order and beauty. They bring culture to all relationships.
SCORPIO Oct23–Nov21 The student in the back of the classroom in black or deep purple and wearing sunglasses is Scorpio. Their eyes penetrate to the heart of all matter. They know all the answers, but tell no one. They work alone, make excellent surgeons and have a depth of knowledge matched only by Pisces. They don’t like questions, or anyone knowing their business. They make good detectives and often direct Mystery (Wisdom) Schools.
SAGITTARIUS Nov22–Dec20
They talk and talk, charming us out of responsibilities. They know bits about everything. They're not supposed to be in-depth. They're supposed to make us curious enough so that we go deeper, not them. They read everything from milk cartons to small bits of paper, and are very curious, doing seven things at once. They present dual realities so we can choose. They can’t.
These are the professors on sabbatical even when they’re teaching. Education is something they find while traveling, carrying mail, opening a publishing house, or eating in every restaurant in the world. Loving food, they are hidden epicures. Always optimistic, they glide over details better than a Gemini. In the classroom, these are the students who seek the "why" of everything. They are the rider on the white horse galloping toward the goal.
CANCER Jun21–Jul20
CAPRICORN Dec21–Jan20
They know how everyone's feeling. They learn through sentiments in the air, understanding emotions. Wherever they are, they dispense warm cookies, hot tea and cocoa, for everywhere is home. All Cancers are mothers, remembering everything accurately—facts, figures, dates, events, how the past relates to the future, and how many times you hurt their feelings.
This is the rational and serious student always looking ahead. Capricorn is a realist, disciplined and purposeful, ambitiously working towards objectives. One day, an exhausted goat/unicorn, they fall off the Himalayas, land in the middle of a Gemini Festival of Humanity, discovering spirituality. Capricorns have the keys to the kingdom. Always befriend them.
LE0 Jul21–Aug22
AQUARIUS Jan21–Feb18
This is the professor in training, the dramatist, the power leader, the one with will and stamina in direct contact with the Sun. Creativity is essential. They display their creations and their personality in order to be recognized and appreciated. Praise helps them grow, unable to evolve without it. In a classroom, they are the shadow teacher. Someday they'll create their own institute, academy, church or college, leading with both heart and mind.
They come from the future, so few understand them. They learn differently, wait ’til the last moment, and dull things (like yesterday) bore them. Extraordinarily inventive, they need freedom, time, and space. Speed and movement help them think. They make unusual artists, and love things glass-like and fiery. Their minds function more like lightning. They are the waters of life poured forth for thirsty humanity.
VIRGO Aug23–Sep22
PISCES Feb19–Mar20
This is the librarian, organizing all of Gemini's unrelated facts, setting them in order, creating catalogues of information online. Virgos are hidden behind pursed lips and almost-closed eyes, researching and ordering everything in minute detail. They really need to play more in between focusing time on details, percentages and efficiency. They never give all of themselves away.
Well, here we are a bit confused in the retrograde–how Pisces often feels. Pisces is a perplexed sign, not knowing their purpose on Earth. Classrooms stifle them, assignments and deadlines are not understood and time is mysterious. When given care and explanations, they assemble themselves and begin to work. They learn intuitively and need everything to relate to everything else. When asked a question, they know the spiritual side of a subject, which is actually the essence of the inquiry. Well-constructed shoes keep them safe.
LIBRA Sep23–Oct22 Libra’s task is to enter situations and create chaos in
