ROB BREZSNY FREE WILL ASTROLOGY Week of June 25 ARIES Mar21–Apr19
LIBRA Sep23–Oct22
According to an astrologer named Astrolocherry (astrolocherry.tumblr.com), Aries is the sign of the freedom fighter, the explorer, the daredevil, and the adventurer. That’s all true; I agree with her. But here’s an important caveat. As you get older, it’s your duty to harness all that hot energy on behalf of the softer, slower, more tender parts of your life. The coming weeks will offer you a great opportunity to work on that challenge. To get started, imagine how you can be a freedom fighter, explorer, daredevil, and adventurer in service to your home, family and community.
Would you like to be free from the experience of getting criticized? Do you think it might be nice if no one ever accused you of being wrong or off-track? If so, here’s how you should proceed, says American writer Elbert Hubbard: “Do nothing, say nothing, be nothing.� But I’m afraid I can’t recommend that behavior for you, Libra. In the coming weeks, you have a sacred duty to your Future Self to risk being controversial. I urge you to take strong stands, speak raw truths, and show your real feelings. Yes, you may attract flack. You might disturb the peace. But that will be an acceptable price to pay for the rewards you receive. This is one time when being courageous is more important than seeking harmony.
TAURUS Apr20–May20
After
After a thorough, detailed, painstaking analysis of the astrological omens, I’m inclined to advise you to be neither thorough nor detailed nor painstaking in the coming days. Instead, I suspect you will thrive by being spontaneous and improvisatory. Wing it, baby! Throw away the script. Trust your gut. Play it by ear. Make it up as you go along. If you find yourself frowning with indecision and beset by lazy procrastination, you will know you’re off course. If you are feeling blithe and agile as you get a lot done with creative efficiency, you will know you’re right in the groove.

The Japanese word tsundoku describes what happens if you buy a lot of books but never read them, leaving them piled up in a neglected heap. I recommend that you avoid indulging in tsundoku anytime soon, Gemini. In fact, I urge you not to acquire any resources that you then proceed to ignore. You are in a phase of your astrological cycle when it’s crucial to make conscientious use of your tools and riches. To let them go to waste would be to dishonor them, and make it less likely that you will continue to receive their blessings in the future. Take full advantage of what’s yours.

If you could harness the energy from a typical lightning bolt, you would be able to use it to toast 100,000 slices of bread. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an impossible scenario, of course. But I see it as an apt metaphor for the challenge you have ahead of you. I suspect you will soon get access to a massive influx of vital force that arrives in a relatively short time. Can you find a way to gather it in and store it up? Or will most of it, after the initial burst, leak away and be unavailable for long-term use? The secret to success will lie in whether you can figure out how to create the perfect â&#x20AC;&#x153;container.â&#x20AC;?
LE0 Jul23â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Aug22 â&#x20AC;&#x153;Forget the suffering / You caused others. / Forget the suffering / Others caused you.â&#x20AC;? Czeslaw Milosz wrote these words in his poem â&#x20AC;&#x153;Forget,â&#x20AC;? and now Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m passing them on to you. According to my reading of the astrological omens, now would be an excellent time for you to purge the old hurts you are still carrying, both those you dealt out and those you endured. Opportunities like this donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t come along often, Leo. I invite you to repay emotional debts, declare amnesty, and engage in an orgy of forgiveness. Any other things you can think of that will help wipe the slate clean?
VIRGO Aug23â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Sep22 When a Navajo baby laughs for the first time, everyone in the community celebrates. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s regarded as the moment when the child completes his or her transition from the spirit realm into the physical world. The person who has provoked the babyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s laughter is charged with planning the First Laugh Ceremony, a party to commemorate the magical event. I foresee a comparable development in your life, Virgo. You wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be laughing for the first time, of course, but I suspect your sense of humor will reach a new ripeness. How? Maybe you will be able to find amusement in things you have always taken too seriously. Maybe you will suddenly have a deeper appreciation for lifeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ongoing cosmic jokes. Or perhaps you will stumble upon reasons to laugh longer and harder and louder than you ever have before.
SCORPIO Oct23â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Nov21 â&#x20AC;&#x153;Be respectful to your superiors, if you have any,â&#x20AC;? said American writer Mark Twain. How do you respond to that impish nudge, Scorpio? Are there any geniuses and heroes out there whom you consider to be worthy of your respect? If not, I urge you to go out in search of some. At this phase of your evolution, you are in special need of people who inspire you with their greatness. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s crucial for you to learn from teachers and role models who are further along than you are in their mastery of the game of life. I also believe it would be healing for you to feel waves of admiration and reverence.
SAGITTARIUS Nov22â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Dec21 â&#x20AC;&#x153;Everyone has something to hide,â&#x20AC;? declared Russian author Anton Chekhov. Is that true? Do even you blunt Sagittarians have something to hide? Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m going to say that for 90 percent of you, the answer is yes. There are secrets you donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want anyone to find out about: past events you are reluctant to disclose or shady deeds you are getting away with now or taboo thoughts you want to keep sealed away from public knowledge. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not here to scold you about them or to encourage you to spill them. On the contrary, I say itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time to bring them fully into your conscious awareness, to honor their importance to your life story, and to acknowledge their power to captivate your imagination.
CAPRICORN Dec22â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Jan19 A German chemist named Felix Hoffman had a prominent role in synthesizing two very different drugs: aspirin and heroin. In analyzing your astrological omens for the coming months, I see you as having a similar potential. You could create good stuff that will have the power to help and heal; or you could generate borderline stuff that will lead to a lot of problems; or you could do both. How it all plays out really is up to your free will. For best results, set your intention to go in the direction of things like aspirin and away from things like heroin.
AQUARIUS Jan20â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Feb18 This is a good time to risk a small leap of faith, but not a sprawling vault over a yawning abyss. Feel free and easy about exploring the outer borders of familiar territory, but be cautious about the prospect of wandering into the deep, dark unknown. Be willing to entertain stimulating new ideas but not cracked notions that have little evidence to back them up. Your task is to shake up the status quo just enough to invigorate everyoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s emotional intelligence, even as you take care not to unleash an upheaval that makes everyone crazy.
PISCES Feb19â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Mar20 British poet Samuel Taylor Coleridge (1772-1834) had an unusual fetish. He enjoyed eating apples and pears and other fruits while they were still hanging on the tree. Why? Maybe because the taste was as pure and brisk and naked as it could possibly beâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;an experience that I imagine would be important to a romantic poet like him. In accordance with your astrological omens, I suggest you use Coleridgeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quest for ultimate freshness as a driving metaphor in the coming week. Go to the source to get what you need. Dispense with intermediaries. Be as raw as the law allows.

Great article! Makes me much more likely to actually “do this thing.”
Rob is one of the best teachers I have come across in all my art studies. I call him the Art Saint, because his heart is as big as the impact he has on anyone he teaches. He also reaches out into the community to make art something unifying, as well as personally elevating. I was so happy to see this article!

CIRCUIT BREAKER? As a murderer with a long record is sentenced, Santa Cruz rolls out a new program for dealing with chronic offenders
JUNE 25-JULY 1, 2014 | GTWEEKLY.COM | SANTACRUZ.COM
BY JACOB PIERCE

It was a rainy November night when Jeremiah Long beat fellow homeless man Robert Powers in the head with a skateboard, leaving him to die by his campsite near Santa Cruz’s Depot Park. Long and a few others had also thrown rocks at the man that same night in 2012, according to the suspects’ confessions. For the homicide charges stemming from that rainy November night, Long pleaded guilty. On June 13, he was sentenced to 25 years in prison. Although this will be Long’s longest stay in prison, it is by no means his first trip behind bars. Long has faced more than 200 charges in six years, and was usually convicted. Most were public nuisance crimes: drug and alcohol violations, illegal camping and a couple of battery charges, according to court records. Long’s case comes just as Santa Cruz County is teaming up with the City of Santa Cruz and other groups to launch a new program aimed at chronic offenders who put a strain on police and court resources. It also might help people committing misdemeanors to navigate treatment options and seek mentorship before they commit bigger crimes. Although Judge John Salazar didn’t mention the County’s new Downtown Accountability Program by name, the access-to-social-services theme weighed on his mind at the sentencing. “I see it day in and day out, how we do not have enough services for people who have mental health issues. I see it. We’re locking up people who have mental health issues instead of treating them—and people who have drug addictions,” said Salazar, who handed down recommended sentences to Long and one other suspect at the hearing that day. “We don’t give them the help they need.” The Downtown Accountability Program, also being called Pacific Garden Mall Pilot Program, will identify chronic offenders and match them with officers who >14

As water restrictions tighten, Santa Cruz wastewater continues to go to waste BY ARIC SLEEPER
W
hether it’s taking shorter showers, fixing leaky fixtures, or being more conscientious about irrigating gardens, Santa Cruz residents are taking extreme measures to get through the current water crisis. Since stage three water restrictions were implemented in May, locals have been doing what they can to conserve, and it shows. Before the new restrictions, the Santa Cruz Water Department hoped to reduce the city’s water consumption to 8.2 million gallons of water per day (mgd) by the end of May. At the completion of the month, the city averaged 8.3 mgd, compared to the normal average of about 10 mgd. Rosemary Menard, director of the city’s Water Department, sees it as a good sign for the conservation effort.
“I would say that we have had really great cooperation,” says Menard. “I think the community has had the information it needed to take the steps that needed to be taken.” But for engineer and longtime advocate of water reclamation, Peter Haase, conserving water is only one aspect of the larger picture. Haase points out that the millions of gallons of water used by the city each day is subsequently lost to the sea after it leaves the Wastewater Treatment Facility—when it could be put to use. “That water is being used once, and then being dumped,” says Haase, primary engineer at Fall Creek Engineering. “I think it’s a crime. We need to go to the expense to treat it and reuse it in a variety of ways.” Although highly treated wastewater is not suitable to drink,
other areas of the county—such as Scotts Valley and the Pajaro Valley— have utilized reclaimed wastewater for irrigation and other purposes for years. “It’s being done all around us,” says Haase.
SCAR FOR THE COURSE One business that knows the importance of recycled water is Pasatiempo Golf Club. The course lies in an unincorporated portion of the county, but purchases its water from the City of Santa Cruz, and accounts for about one percent of the city’s total water use. Due to the stage three water restrictions, the water consumption of golf courses for irrigation purposes has been reduced by 49 percent, leading to browning greens at Pasatiempo, and a small drop in business, according to Scott Hoyt, >12

DOWN THE DRAIN <10 general manager of the course. “At this point in time, I would have to say that it is affecting us,” says Hoyt. “It’s not drastic or radical, but certainly compared to the first three years that I’ve been here, it’s definitely down a little bit.” When Hoyt became general manager of the golf course in 2011, the immediate mission given to him by the club’s board of directors was to try and attain recycled water resources from Scotts Valley. But with so many parties involved—Pasatiempo Golf Club, the Santa Cruz Water Department, Scotts Valley Water District, and the City of Scotts Valley—the process of acquiring Scotts Valley’s treated wastewater has been arduous. “The wheels of politics turn slowly,” says Hoyt. The agencies involved have considered a few different ideas to

get reclaimed wastewater to the course. One was to build a pipeline from Scotts Valley to Santa Cruz to provide treated wastewater to Pasatiempo, and send fresh water to Scotts Valley. But as it would require the construction of approximately eight miles of pipe, the plan’s high price tag kept it from going anywhere. Scotts Valley and the golf course then looked into building a pipeline from the water reclamation plant in the city straight to Pasatiempo, but the five miles of pipe, which would have been paid for by the golf course, once again proved to be too expensive. The most recent strategy up for consideration is to utilize the excess of treated wastewater—already traveling through an outflow line past the golf course—to irrigate Pasatiempo. But a special permit from the state would be required to determine if there were any health
concerns associated with the use of the secondary treated water on the course, as the wastewater the city uses for local businesses and residential developments is treated to the tertiary level, which is the highest quality for treated wastewater. Hoyt has to wait on the California Department of Public Health to decide if the use of secondarytreated wastewater poses any health risks, but because all of the course’s irrigation is done at night, and their drinking fountains and buildings are connected to a separate plumbing system, Hoyt believes the dangers are nonexistent. Even if the state doesn’t approve of the secondary water use for Pasatiempo’s irrigation, Hoyt, with the help of a consulting firm, has located a new water source under the course’s twelfth hole. “We’re waiting for either approval on that [permit], >17
NEWS BRIEFS CARDED BY THE FEDS Immigration reform has taken a beating this year, and with the defeat of Eric Cantor in the Virginia GOP Senate primary, prognostications have turned even worse. In California, however, the biggest immigration battle right now isn’t even over policy—it’s purely cosmetic. Last month, federal officials rejected the design for licenses made possible by AB60—the California state assembly bill passed last year that grants special driver’s identification cards to undocumented immigrants. The Department of Homeland Security ruled that California’s design has the required language on the back of the card instead of the front— therefore, not in accordance with national standards—and that it looks too similar to the licenses of legal residents.
Assemblyman and former Watsonville mayor Luis Alejo presented AB60 to the State Assembly in 2013, and says that the initial language of AB60 did comply with the pre-existing federal requirements. But he tells GT he’s not surprised by the gridlock, since this is the first time Homeland Security has weighed in on a bill of this nature. “We still disagree with [Homeland Security],” says Alejo. In looking at other states that have enacted similar legislation, Alejo maintains that AB60 was very clear on how to keep DP licenses distinct, while still avoiding problems feared by immigrant rights activists. Law enforcement officials would know the differences, he says, but they wouldn’t be so extreme that immigrants would be afraid of being discriminated against. Alejo is still optimistic; “I believe everything is still on track

COMMUNITY FOCUS The colorful tiles that make up the new public mosaic at the Homeless Services Center (HSC) in Santa Cruz depict an array of fanciful and poignant images: smiley faces, a highrise apartment building, birds and butterflies. Step back a few feet, and the 624 tiles that adorn the exterior wall of the Center’s Hygiene Bay lose their individuality, and are transformed into a glittering sunrise. Each of the tiles were made by local students, HSC staff and clients, while the sunrise design, symbolizing the promise of a new day, was submitted by a Center employee, said Kathleen Crocetti, county artist and middle school art teacher. The 22 ft. x 7 ft. mosaic, along
with a second smaller mosaic at the opposite end of the wall, is Crocetti’s 10th public art installation. You can find her mosaics locally at the Laurel Street and Water Street bridges, the Barson Stairs at Laurel Street Bridge and at Soquel Bridge over the San Lorenzo River. A large-scale mosaic with an agricultural motif is at the Corralitos Cultural Center. Since HSC funds can be used only for client services, Crocetti took to the online crowd-funding website Donors Choose, where 28 individuals gave $2,000 toward the project. Home Depot, Mission Tile, and Rinaldi Tile & Marble donated supplies. For her next public art project, Watsonville resident Crocetti is mulling something a bit more pedestrian: painting a traffic intersection with local students for National Night Out. “They do it in Portland!” she says.

will work with them to make sure they make it to their court appearances and try to help them get any other help they qualify for, like treatment or counseling. Of course, it would be unfair to paint Jeremiah Long as the sole poster child for the problems the Downtown Accountability Program aims to fix. Between January 2011 and April 2013, 146 people accounted for 3,598 arrests, just over half of them related to drugs or alcohol, according to the Santa Cruz Police Department. Sheriff Jim Hart says that of 12,000 annual jail bookings, 5,000 are for public intoxication. Through October 2015, the program, which is being spearheaded partly by County District Attorney Bob Lee, should cost the city and county a combined three quarters of a million dollars. That includes funds for more counseling and $79,000
for a new case manager at Encompass Community Services, which provides services to families and helps them transition into housing. The nonprofit, formerly called Santa Cruz Community Counseling, will have a new CEO in Homeless Services Director Monica Martinez as of next month. The funds for the program will also cover the cost of a new SCPD officer, and provide more funding for probation and legal operations. Inspiration for the plan came partly out of assistant city manager Scott Collins’ similar plan for a top-100 chronic offenders program that in hindsight looks rather ambitious. The new program will focus on 30 people at a time, while also helping out a couple of dozen more. If the popular new pilot program has an Achilles’ heel, it might be that even some of its most ardent supporters, among them
Vice Mayor Don Lane and former Mayor Mike Rotkin, are saying there might be an important area that needs beefing up. In order for it to see real success in reducing drug-related offenses among the homeless population, they say, it will take bigger investments in terms of actually paying people’s housing and drug treatment costs—not small expenses, by any means. “We’re taking it one step at a time," Collins says of the housing element. "We don’t want to throw every dollar at this one area, because the needs run the spectrum. But it’s something we’re looking at.” Santa Cruz city staffer Susie O'Hara, who's helping to oversee the program, says having new employees help people look for housing makes a big difference. “It makes no sense to put someone in drug treatment, and then when they're finished, put them on the streets again," she says.
Back in the courtroom on June 13, Long wasn’t the only one being sentenced. Shaelyn Gonzales, who had been throwing rocks at Powers, received eight years in prison. Michael Hudson was also supposed to be sentenced, but got a continuance, and is now slated to be sentenced next month. Some of the suspects’ friends, a few not wearing shoes, filled a row near the back of the room and sat mostly quiet, but one woman let out a chuckle during the prosecution’s remarks. When that happened, prosecutor Johanna Schonfield spun around to give the crowd some advice. “This could be you,” Schonfield said. “And Mr. Powers could have been any of you, too. There is help out there. We’re trying to make a difference in the community, so don’t let this become you.”

DOWN THE DRAIN <12 or we’re going to start digging for a well that we have preliminary indications is useable, and once we find out one of those will produce, we need to construct a storage tank and pumping station,” says Hoyt. If the golf course gets the permit, it will still need resident approval, modifications to the outflow line coming from Scotts Valley, further negotiations with Scotts Valley Water District, and the construction of the tank and pumping station to mix the reclaimed water with potable water from Santa Cruz. Ideally, Hoyt would like to have all three sources flowing into the golf course: the potable water from Santa Cruz, the treated wastewater from Scotts Valley, and the resources from the well, which lie about 1,500 feet underground.

SANTACRUZ.COM | GTWEEKLY.COM | JUNE25-JULY 1, 2014
Piret Harmon, general manager of the Scotts Valley Water District, also hopes to bring multiple water sources to Scotts Valley, which relies mostly on ground water at present. “It’s like the stock market,” says Harmon. “The more diverse portfolio you have, the better off you are, because different years and climate conditions affect sources differently.” As for the future use of recycled water in the city of Santa Cruz, Haase says one of the biggest historic barriers lies between the two entities involved in the managing of the city’s water supply: the Water Department, which handles water as an asset, and the Wastewater Treatment Facility, which treats the water as a waste product. The Water Supply Advisory Committee, a group of citizens tasked with making recommendations for the city’s future use of water, will present their findings on the subject to the city council later this summer. “They need to look at the fact that this wastewater has value,” says Harmon. “In the long run, it’s just going to be the way it is. Recycled water is going to have to play a role. It’s too valuable. But it’s a paradigm shift. Right now we treat it as a waste, and we need to get to a point where we treat it as a resource.”

Focusing development on urban infill along busy streets like Soquel Drive may also help to ease some of the congestion on Highway 1.

The EVS outlines specific strategies to support more affordable housing, such as reevaluating building codes to make it easier to build structures like townhouses, condos and apartment buildings in the county that are considered “affordable by design.” The document also acknowledges the need to develop housing units for agricultural workers, which could alleviate labor shortages on South County farms caused in part by the high cost of living.
Most of the recommendations in the EVS concerning affordable housing line up with a similar document that the county is developing concurrently, called the Sustainable Santa Cruz County Plan. Both plans recommend changes to the county’s codes to make it simpler for smaller units to be built in urban areas and along high-traffic corridors.

people are living in places where they can easily walk or bike to work or the grocery store, it may shave off travel time for those who still need to commute by car. “We have a huge issue with our local highways and roadways,” says Joe Foster, executive director of the Santa Cruz County Business Council. “Not just with personal traffic, where people are traveling from work and school, but in the movement of goods and products. It’s a challenge for a lot of businesses that rely on going up and down Highway 1, and Mission Street, and Soquel Avenue to be able to efficiently move their product. It affects the bottom line, because they lose time.” Foster also describes concerns from those in the medical field who fear that they can’t respond to emergency situations when the highway is backed up day in and day out. Although the EVS touches only briefly on traffic issues, it does stress the need for the county government to partner with the Association of Monterey Bay Area Governments and the Regional Transportation Commission to improve existing roads, create auxiliary lanes on Highway 1, and expand the local system of walkways and bike paths.

BACKBONE OF TECH
The EVS also addresses the issue of how to increase the flow of information via an expanded broadband infrastructure. With the recent funding provided for the construction of a broadband backbone traveling through the center of the county all the way to Soledad, the future expansion of broadband in the county is inevitable, but still a couple of years away. Without high-speed Internet connections, which are especially lacking in the unincorporated areas of the county, emerging companies may take their business elsewhere. “Personally, I think broadband is really imperative, and can provide us with a competitive edge,” says Robert Singleton, co-founder of Civinomics and policy analyst for the Santa Cruz County Business Council. “For every point of access you provide for the Internet, it’s a one-to-four return. For every dollar of Internet you invest in, you get four dollars back.” Broadband access is extremely vital to the local tech industry, which the EVS recognizes as one of the fastest-growing business sectors in the county—and one that is showing promise. One sector the EVS focuses on is tech transfer, which essentially means cultivating intellectual property developed at UCSC, or elsewhere, and transforming it into local businesses. Five3 Genomics is a prime example of tech transfer in action. The local tech firm composed of UCSC alumni utilizes patented algorithms
that identify the unique characteristics of individual cancer cells, which helps patients find better treatments. To encourage tech transfer in the future, the university founded the Center for Entrepreneurship, or C4E, which trains students through mentorship programs to take the skills and talent they acquired in their studies into the business world. The EVS asserts the importance of partnering with the university on this program, and of assisting UCSC in its efforts to raise $50 million for the advancement of the Human Genome Project. “I think that the technology and innovation will have a huge positive impact on our economic opportunity here for many of our residents,” says County Supervisor Bruce McPherson. Outside of engaging UCSC, the EVS seeks to further strengthen the local tech community by creating innovation incubation centers where tech workers could both work and live. “The whole idea of having a live and work space for technology—a kind of Tannery for tech, if you will—seems like a no-brainer,” says Singleton.
UNTANGLING RED TAPE
The single greatest benefactor of the EVS, according to McPherson, is the wide array of companies that call Santa Cruz County home. “It’s going to be the small businesses that will be the predominate benefactors of this whole effort, I think,” says McPherson.

Although there are definite differences in the two documents, the similarities between the current Economic Vitality Strategy and 1994’s Economic Development Action Plan are undeniable. So what’s to prevent the EVS from falling by the wayside as the EDAP did in the past? <22 BAE Urban Economics, a consulting company with offices in Emeryville, found that 82 percent of all the jobs in Santa Cruz County, both in the cities and unincorporated areas, are with companies that have fewer than 10 employees. The firm also discovered that the county holds a high percentage of home-based businesses in comparison to the state. In order to unite these small businesses in a coworking environment similar to Cruzio and Nextspace, the EVS proposes publicly funded coworking facilities to reduce the capital costs necessary to grow these smaller companies. Some of the biggest business concerns laid out in the EVS are the county’s antiquated planning codes and permitting processes. “The current process is so onerous that you have people not even engaging in the process,” says Friend. With so many forms and fees and reviews and appeals, many entrepreneurs choose to either operate their businesses illegally or relocate. Friend and the other supervisors are already taking steps to refine the county’s permit framework. “If we’re going to invite people to establish businesses here or expand
their businesses here, we need to invite them into a functional permitting framework,” says Previsich. She says there is a need for increased customer service from the county to help nascent businesses with the permitting and planning work, through a sort of one-stop shop, where a county employee would guide entrepreneurs through every step in the process and work collaboratively with all of the agencies involved, from inception to completion. “We will be engaged across departments to try and problem solve, and streamline the process,” says Previsich. Supporting the large industry staples in the county like tourism, agriculture, health, and education are key components of the EVS. In regard to agriculture, a significant sector of the local economy, the county is already working to streamline regulations. But the EVS also pushes for the regular meeting of industry stakeholders—like the Farm Bureau—with county officials, in order to address ongoing issues and simply stay connected, which is an underlying theme in the EVS as a whole. “Our first goal is about creating a shared vision and organizing for

FUTURE <24 action. It’s a lot about convening and having these groups together in a cohesive effort—understanding that they all have their own idiosyncrasies and things that they’re working on, but also getting them to collaborate and work together in a united effort,” says Previsich. Creating a business license requirement, which is suggested in the first goal of the EVS, may seem like an extra burden to business owners in the county, but the information the county would gain through the establishment of the requirement would allow for better planning in the future. “The whole purpose of the county requiring a business license is so that they can get better data around the businesses operating in the unincorporated areas,” says Singleton. “Right now, we don’t have accurate data, because no one is required to annually submit that kind of information. If a business license was required, we could obtain those accurate metrics.” Singleton says metrics are essential for the economic vitality of the county and the success of the EVS in the future. “You have to know where you are to know where you’re going,” he says.

The first goal of the EVS also stresses the importance of county officials meeting with community leaders from all sectors of business to discuss the strategy as it is implemented in the future—which is strikingly similar to the last economic vitality plan, created in 1994. In fact, much of the wording in the 20-yearold document is nearly identical to the current EVS draft. For example, the 1994 document states that the utmost goal of the Economic Development Action Plan (EDAP), as it was then called, was to “protect and enhance the
community’s quality of life.” The EDAP also calls for a strategic action team whose charge was to serve smaller businesses with permit processing, which the document states “can take an excruciatingly long time.” Sound familiar? Although there are definite differences in the two documents, the similarities in themes and ideas are undeniable. So what’s to prevent the EVS from falling by the wayside as the EDAP did in the past? Supervisor McPherson feels that the county’s current leadership will make all the difference. “We have an attitude adjustment in the county,” says McPherson. “We really want to see things happen here.” Foster sees the parallels between the documents as a warning, and hopes that the EVS doesn’t suffer the same fate as the EDAP. “It’s going to be very important for the county to work with its partners, like the business council, the chambers of commerce, and other stakeholder groups to make sure that if it is approved for implementation, it gets done,” says Foster, “and we don’t look back in 2034 and say, ‘Well, it’s been 20 years since we made the last one.’” The EVS is currently in a public review period until early July, and if the strategy is to be successful in achieving its goals, county officials need to know which of the 110 points in the document the community feels are most important. “The question is, ‘What are we going to focus on?’” says Supervisor John Leopold. “The challenge will be for the board to discuss with each other and with the community at large where are the places we can see success early, and build on that momentum to achieve the entire plan.” “The community has the direct ability to change, comment on, and shape the economic strategies of the county for the next generation,” says Friend.

familiar faces from the past include Julia Coffey, Allen Gilmore, William Elsman, Carly Cioffi and the ubiquitous Kit Wilder. "I am extremely excited about the cast we have assembled," says Ryan. "Comprised of SSC audience favorites, Bay Area superstars, award-winning actors from Chicago and New York, and our amazing interns, they are the perfect group to take audiences on the sexy and hilarious ride that is our inaugural season." As far as William Shakespeare was concerned, all the world loves a fool, especially a cross-dressing fool. And he proved it by packing his wittiest works with clever occasions to make feckless buffoons out of easy targets. Like Sir John Falstaff, who is back with us in this inaugural season of Santa Cruz Shakespeare, attempting to seduce two saucy women and pocket their husbands' money in the woodland caper The Merry Wives of Windsor. A few years back I described Ziman's Falstaff as "an irresistible organization of wit, joie de vivre and corpulence.â&#x20AC;? I, who wanted the chance to see â&#x20AC;&#x153;Falstaff in love,â&#x20AC;? again look forward to relishing Ziman in this juicy Shakespearean romp, written at the request of Queen Elizabeth I. Busy Bay Area director Kirsten Brandt takes the controls of this cheeky romp, whose forest setting makes the perfect match for UCSC's atmospheric Festival Glen. More schemes, fools and crossdressing abound in the romantic comedy As You Like It, which opens the festival on July 1. In this Renaissance sitcom, Rosalind is exiled from the court, and, along with the fool Touchstone,
wanders into the idyllic Forest of Arden where she discovers her true love, Orlando. Rosalind hatches a dazzling scheme to win his heart by disguising herself as a boy and teaching him how to woo a woman. Only in Shakespeare! The production is directed by Mark Rucker, a Shakespeare Santa Cruz veteran and associate artistic director at the American Conservatory Theater. Rounding out the SCS festival season is a "fringe show" production of Amy Freed's delicious The Beard of Avon which tracks one eager young man named "Shakespeare" and his wildly improbable struggles to escape the sticks and find fame as a playwright in the big city of London. Directed by Steve Boyle, the Fringe Show plays only on July 29 and August 5. The backstory to this year's Santa Cruz Shakespeare festival is well known. Once the University closed down the annual summer theatricals after more than three decades, the community responded by raising the funds to support a new season of Shakespeare, with high-profile professionals at the helm. "The difference in this new festival," Ryan said recently, "is that SSC felt like a festival at UCSC. The aim of Santa Cruz Shakespeare is to be a theater company for the community." INFO: The Santa Cruz Shakespeare season runs July 1 - Aug.10, at the SinsheimerStanley Festival Glen at the UCSC. As You Like it runs July 1 - Aug. 10, The Merry Wives of Windsor runs July 13 - Aug. 10. The Fringe Show: The Beard of Avon shows July 29 & Aug. 5 only.

Crash Course
New Carolina Chocolate Drops lineup gets a baptism by fire BY BRIAN PALMER
C
hange is inevitable, especially in bands. Members come and go—it simply comes with the territory. Hubby Jenkins—who plays the guitar, mandolin, banjo and bones for the Carolina Chocolate Drops—knows this all too well, as he joined the band just before they started recording their fourth album, 2012’s Leaving Eden. “Leaving Eden was an interesting
album because [fiddler] Justin [Robinson] had just left the group, and they had already decided to record with Buddy Miller, and had even picked the recording dates,” Jenkins says. “It was an interesting time to be coming in, because they were ready to do different things with the new members. So it was a trial-by-fire period.” Jenkins is not exaggerating when he says there was a steep learning
curve. He suspected he needed to get familiar with the band’s most recent work, but soon discovered that was just the beginning. “When I joined, we had about a month where we didn’t see each other, so I emailed them and asked, ‘What should I be working on? Stuff from the last album?’” he recalls. “They were like, ‘We’ll send you some stuff,’ and what they sent me was their entire repertoire! So I
worked on a lot of stuff and tried to memorize as many songs as possible.” And it only got crazier from there. “On my first official day, within the first hour, we went to do a radio show, and then the next day we went to a gig, and a month later we were in the studio doing the album. So it was very much like ‘bam’!” Jenkins says with a laugh. “It was wild, because I was really nervous.” Despite his anxiety, Eden became another fine addition to the Drops’ discography. The old-timey front porch folk of “Boodle-De-Bum-Bum” is a delight, while “Riro’s House” is a rousing, country-style jam that is a perfect fit for a hoedown. And when singer Rhiannon Giddens lets out her soulful vocals on the dizzying bluegrass number “Ruby, Are You Mad at Your Man?” she brings down the house in short order. The album is alive with the soul of AfricanAmerican musical traditions, a constant goal for the band no matter how many personnel changes take place. “Bands are always changing and evolving, but one of the main missions of the group is to be an all-black string band where we talk about the roots of African-American music, and be a part of that stream of musicians who are keeping that alive,” Jenkins says. “That’s what we’re looking for, members who understand and have a passion for that mission.” Recently, the band had to go looking once again. At the end of 2013, longtime multi-instrumentalist Dom Flemons left to pursue a solo career, and cellist Leyla McCalla— who had joined for their 2012 tour slate—exited for the same reason. In their places are cellist Malcolm Parson and multi-instrumentalist Rowan Corbett. It’s forced the Drops to evolve once again, Jenkins says. “Whenever you bring in somebody, it creates a new vibe,” he says. Carolina Chocolate Drops will perform at 7 and 9 p.m. Tuesday, July 1, Kuumbwa Jazz, 320-2 Cedar St., Santa Cruz. Tickets are $25/advance, $30/door. For more information, call 427-2227.

LOCAL BAND Folivore
Anyone who has heard Folivore knows the intense feeling of dread their music produces. Formed in 2010 by guitarist Kyle Kessler and drummer Chris Patzke, Folivore—named as an homage to sludge metal act Weedeater, and because “sloths are the most metal of animals,” according to Patzke—was designed to unite their Holy Trinity of metal. “Black Sabbath is the Father, the Melvins are the Son, and Lemmy is the Holy Ghost,” Kessler says. “He’s the tie that binds.” Vocalist Stephanie Vossekuil joined soon after the band was formed, covering their spacious melodies with her hellish screams. Soon, Folivore was playing gigs around town and touring the California coast, following the release of the locally infamous 2010 Rehearsal Demo EP (or the “Vagina Tree EP”, for us believers). Then, in 2011, Folivore fell silent.
JUNE 25-JULY 1, 2014 | GTWEEKLY.COM | SANTACRUZ.COM
“We went through bass players like drummers in Spinal Tap,” says Kessler with a laugh.

They returned the following year with “Friar” Sam Boodt strumming sonic riffs on the bass. Empowered with fresh blood, the slow-rocking coven has recently re-recorded their demo in an effort to shop for labels and deliver their message of black magic, nature’s rule of humanity and exploring the space between consciousness. And it seems to be working. Folivore’s psychedelically crushing sound has earned them a space in the metal community, playing with acts like Swamp Witch, EyeHateGod, Death Monk and Church of Misery. “There’s been a lot of community that has been down to help us out,” recalls Vossekuil. MAT WEIR Info: 8:30 p.m. Sunday, June 29. The Catalyst Atrium. 1011 Pacific Ave., Santa Cruz. $13. 423-1336.
WEDNESDAY 6/25 JAZZ
THUMBSCREW Tastemaker since 1934, Down Beat magazine is the go-to publication for jazz enthusiasts. So it’s no small thing when the publication includes you on its recent “80 Coolest Things in Jazz Today” list. Such is the case with guitarist Mary Halvorson, co-creator of the jazz/rock/avant-garde trio Thumbscrew. Along with Michael Formanek on bass, and Tomas Fujiwara on drums, Halverson blurs genre boundaries with improvisational music that pulls from a variety of styles and influences yet creates a distinct space of its own. CAT JOHNSON INFO: 7 p.m. Kuumbwa Jazz, 320-2 Cedar St., Santa Cruz. $20/adv, $25/door. 427-2227.
THURSDAY 6/26 BLUES
JIMBO MATHUS It’s hard to believe that ’90s swing revival band, Squirrel Nut Zippers, would yield one of today’s hottest indie-folk songwriters. I’m referring to Andrew Bird, of course. But he’s not the only non-swing star to come out
of that band. In fact, SNZ co-founder Jimbo Mathus has had a respectable blues and roots-rock solo career since the band’s breakup. The shift in musical tastes started in the late ’90s during trips back home to Mississippi, where he fell in love with the Delta blues. But instead of approaching the blues with a tongue-in-cheek Squirrel Nut Zippers style, Mathus mixes the music with a passionate heartland Bruce Springsteen vibe, and sings from his soul. AARON CARNES INFO: 9 p.m. The Crepe Place, 1134 Soquel Ave., Santa Cruz. $10. 429-6994.
FRIDAY 6/27 ROOTS ROCK
DAVE & PHIL ALVIN The Blasters weren’t the biggest band in the ’80s. They had a lot working for them, with one foot in the punk scene and the other in authentic blues and rockabilly. The blend wasn’t as popular then as it’s since gotten. The brainchild of brothers Dave and Phil Alvin, the Blasters were bound for cult status. In 1986 Dave left the group, while Phil kept it going. The brothers have just recorded their first album together in three decades, though not as the Blasters. Instead, they team up to cover
their favorite tunes by Bill Broonzy, an innovative songwriter from the ’20s till the ’50s who played urban blues and country folk music. AC INFO: 9 p.m. Moe’s Alley, 1535 Commercial Way, Santa Cruz. $20/adv, $25/door. 479-1854.
PUNK ROCK
STREETWALKIN’ CHEETAHS Though they started in 1995, L.A.’s Streetwalkin’ Cheetahs are in love with ’70s punk rock. They’ve worked with a lot of punk pioneers, too; helping Runaways’ singer Cherie Currie re-record the band’s classic “Cherry Bomb,” and backing MC5 guitarist Wayne Kramer on a 1999 tour. The Streetwalkin’ Cheetahs broke up in 2002, but reunited after a 12-year hiatus, kicking things off earlier this year with a tour opening for Dead Boys’ singer Cheetah Chrome. With several shout-along, garage-punk albums under their belt, all highly influenced by proto-punk bands like the Stooges and MC5, their latest single, “Fuck the Future (I Want Not)” leans a little more into the realm of ’80s hardcore. AC INFO: 9.pm. Blue Lagoon, 923 Pacific Ave., Santa Cruz. $5. 423.7117.

MICHAEL DOUCET
BE OUR GUEST HARRY & THE HITMEN Who says a band has to choose a single musical style and stick with it? Certainly not Harry & the Hitmen. Standout of the local scene, this horn-driven sextet takes motown and stax grooves, classic rock ‘n’ roll, psychedelic music and extended jams and blends them all together into what they’ve dubbed a “psychedelic motown throwdown.” On July 10, Harry & the Hitmen team up with local psych-stoner outfit Mammatus, for what promises to be a deep groove-laden, trip-inducing (or enhancing) affair. Also on the bill: Driving South. CAT JOHNSON
SATURDAY 6/28 CLASSICAL

Talk about making an impression. The band’s lively sound combines elements of New Orleans jazz, Cajun, Zydeco, folk, bluegrass, blues and rock to create an experience that is second to none. They are touring in support of their most recent album, 2013’s From Bamako to Carencro. BP
PSYCHOBILLY
THE BLACK TIGERS Dustan Sheehan of the local psychobilly rock band Stellar Corpses recently unveiled a new side project called the Black Tigers. How new are they? This concert will be only the band’s second, and their first as headliners, so there is bound to be loads of excitement and energy surrounding the show. Folks who couldn’t make the band’s premiere would be wise to check out a live video of the rocking track “I Don’t Wanna Fall in Love” on YouTube. All proceeds from this concert benefit local nonprofit organization Grind Out Hunger. Also on the bill: Russ Rankin

Now 10 years running, the Santa Cruz Harp Festival is a celebration of all things harp. Featuring a variety of harps from around the world, some of the area's finest musical talent, and a "petting zoo" for the harp curious, the event pays homage to an instrument that stretches back to 3500 BCE. Featured performers include Shelley Phillips, Jesse Autumn, Jennifer Cass, the Community Music School Harp Orchestra, Cathleen O'Connell, world music trio StringQuake and guest composer Barry Phillips. CJ
on bass and Dave Hartman on drums, offers a quirky performance style that includes bright-colored clothes and hair, and maybe a pair of overalls. Despite their name, the band is anything but on the skids, having performed on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and Late Night with Conan O'Brien, as well as featured on numerous movie soundtracks. If you're looking to groove to an unconventional band with classic funky beats, then this is your show. SYDNEY MOORHEAD
INFO: 8:30 p.m. Thursday, July 10. Moe’s Alley, 1535 Commercial Way, Santa Cruz. $8/adv, $12/door. 479-1854. WANT TO GO? Go to santacruz.com/giveaways before 11 a.m. on Friday, June 27, to find out how you could win a pair of tickets to the show.

FILM
LET US GIVE YOU A HAND The Four Seasons get the big-screen treatment in ‘Jersey Boys.’
Baby Got Backstory Too much plot can't stop the music in Clint Eastwood’s ‘Jersey Boys’ BY LISA JENSEN originated the role of Frankie Valli on Broadway) as three of the Four Seasons in his film. Not only do these guys know their characters inside out, they can all sing like the dickens (Young's Valli-worthy falsetto is particularly impressive). Eastwood then had the freedom to shoot their musical numbers live (instead of recording their vocals separately and looping them into the soundtrack), bringing an extra layer of immediacy and verve to the songs. So the movie sounds great. And even the revue-style stage device of having the characters occasionally pause in the middle of the action (sometimes in the middle of a song) to talk to the audience works most of the time, as a way to keep the narrative going forward.
But ultimately, there proves to be more backstory than the film can comfortably handle, not only individual character biographies (as sketchy as they often are), but also in the story arc of the group as a whole—from rags to riches to its final implosive breakup. Still, it's the nature of the biopic to rush through a lot of material, especially when the biographies are multiplied by four. Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice, who wrote the book for the stage show, also adapt the story for the screen, and they keep things pretty lively early on. In Belleville, N.J., 1951, teenage Frankie is working in a barbershop. His buddy, Tommy DeVito (Vincent Piazza) runs errands for the local mob boss (a terrific Christopher
JERSEY BOYS **1/2 With John Lloyd Young, Vincent Piazza, Erich Bergen, Michael Lomenda, and Christopher Walken. Written by Marshall Brickman and Rick Elice. Directed by Clint Eastwood. A Warner Bros. release. Rated R. 134 minutes.

irector Clint Eastwood makes no attempt to disguise the stage origins of Jersey Boys, his film adaptation of the hit Broadway musical. Why would he? The “jukebox musical” built around the music of Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons was a huge hit when it debuted in 2005, won four Tonys (including Best Musical), continues to be a hot ticket on Broadway nine years later, and has spawned dozens of popular touring productions around the world. Eastwood is a pro; he knows better than to fool around with success. To his enormous credit, he opted against casting movie stars and instead cast alumni from various stage productions of the show (including Tony-winner John Lloyd Young, who
Walken), and when he's not knocking over jewelry stores or doing jail time, he has a little part-time band. Piazza is the only member of the onscreen quartet who wasn’t cherry-picked out of a stage production, and he delivers a breakout performance as cocky wannabe-player Tommy. Frankie is invited to join Tommy and bass player Nicky Massi (Michael Lomenda). A friend suggests Bob Gaudio (an engaging Erich Bergen), a keyboardist and budding songwriter, who's inspired to write for Frankie's voice. They can barely scrape up the cash to cut a demo, but after they meet producer Bob Crewe (Mike Doyle) at the Brill Building in New York City, they soar to the top of the charts on a string of Gaudio/Crewe hits like “Sherry,” “Big Girls Don't Cry,” and “Walk Like A Man.” But ultimately, the stress of the road, friction between the guys, and Tommy’s astounding debts to the mob scuttle the group. As the narrative progresses into these less fun parts of the tale, large sections of the storytelling feel inert, and some key moments get short shrift. When we first meet Mary (Renée Marino), the future Mrs. Valli, she’s a pretty hot number, vamping Frankie in a bar, and giving him savvy advice. The next time we see her, years later, she’s an unhappy drunk, but her story is never told. Ditto their daughter, Francine, a sweet little cherub in one scene, a runaway teen in the next. It becomes a major plot point that she's a great singer, even better than her dad, but it’s news to the audience; we never hear her sing so much as a nursery rhyme. Toward the end, Frankie tells the others the best time was when the four of them were harmonizing together on a street corner, but it's a moment that was not shown earlier. Eastwood tries to compensate with a crowd-pleasing Bollywood-style finale, which confirms that, even given the intimacy of film, Jersey Boys is still all about the music.

FILM NEW THIS WEEK GORE VIDAL: THE UNITED STATES OF AMNESIA Early on, Gore Vidal formed strong opinions on the promise of American democracy, as conceived by the Founding Fathers, and the gradual corruption of that democracy by the forces of money and power. Vidal spent all of his life as a celebrated novelist, essayist, playwright, commentator, and bon vivant trying to warn the American people of the ways their democracy was being eroded out from under them—an urgent warning that continues from beyond the grave in Nichols D. Wrathall's absorbing documentary on Vidal's life and celebrated times. (Not rated) 83 minutes. (***)—Lisa Jensen. Starts Friday. OBVIOUS CHILD Jenny Slate stars as an aspiring stand-up comic trying to navigate real life, in all its unpredictable messiness (a lost job, an unwanted pregnancy) with the same fearless aplomb she applies to her stage act. Gaby Hoffman and Jake Lacy co-star for writer -director Gillian Robespierre. (R) 85 minutes. Starts Friday.
CONTINUING EVENT: LET'S TALK ABOUT THE MOVIES This informal movie discussion group meets at the Del Mar mezzanine in downtown Santa Cruz. Movie junkies are invited to join in on Wednesday nights to pursue the elusive and ineffable meanings of cinema. Discussion begins at 7 pm and admission is free. For more information, visit groups.google.com/ group/LTATM.
NOW PLAYING 22 JUMP STREET Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill are back as the
undercover cops who bluffed their way through high school in the first Jump Street movie. Now they’re undercover at a local college, and drifting apart into opposite jock and bohemian art scenes on campus. Peter Stormare and Ice Cube co-star for co-directors Phil Lord and Christopher Miller (The Lego Movie; Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs). (R) 105 minutes. A MILLION WAYS TO DIE IN THE WEST Director and co-writer Seth MacFarlane stars in this spaghetti Western spoof as a cowardly sheep rancher who has to manufacture some courage fast when he comes between a seductive mystery woman (Charlize Theron) and her notorious outlaw husband (Liam Neeson). Amanda Seyfried, Giovanni Ribisi, Neil Patrick Harris, and Sarah Silverman co-star. (R) CHEF Jon Favreau wrote and directed this fun feast for foodies, in which he stars as a top chef who quits his job at an L.A. restaurant over creative differences with the owner (Dustin Hoffman). He goes on the road with a food truck, selling spicy Miami-style sandwiches with his sous-chef buddy (John Leguizamo) and his Internetsavvy 10-year-old son. Sofia Vergara is his sassy ex, and while the plot plays out exactly as you expect, the actors are engaging, the story sizzles with Latin flavor, and the food looks great; trust me, you’ll come out jonesing for a fried Cubano sandwich. (R) 115 minutes. (***)—Lisa Jensen. EDGE OF TOMORROW It’s like a sci-fi Groundhog Day. When aliens invade the Earth, an untested Army Major (Tom Cruise) is sent to the front lines, and promptly killed—except he’s caught in a time loop, forced to keep experiencing the same battle over and over again. 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) THE FAULT IN OUR STARS Shailene Woodley and Ansel Elgort star in this screen adaptation of the bestselling John Green YA novel about teenagers who unexpectedly fall in love while undergoing cancer treatments. Josh Boone directs. (PG-13) 125 minutes.
TEARS OF A CLOWN Jenny Slate stars as a stand-up comic in ‘Obvious Child.’
HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON 2 In this sequel to the hugely popular, family-friendly animated fantasy, boy-hero Hiccup has grown into a young man, and he and his buddies are perfecting the sport of dragon racing with the flying dragons recently introduced into the culture of their Viking island. But while exploring unchartered territories with his beloved pet dragon, Toothless, Hiccup discovers a secret that threatens the new peace between humans and dragons. Jay Baruchel, America Ferrera, Gerard Butler, Cate Blanchett, Jonah Hill, and Kristen Wiig provide voices. Dean DeBlois directs. (PG) 102 minutes. IDA This Polish film from Pawel Pawlikowski is a small miracle of economic storytelling, emotional complexity and astonishing scope. Both an intimate drama and an unsentimentalized look back on two tumultuous decades of Polish history as told over the course of a few days in the life of a young woman, it’s everything we want a film to be—focused, beautifully composed, surprising, and powerful. Agata Trzebuchowska is lovely as a conventraised orphan; Agata Kulesza is superb as the wayward aunt who reveals the truth of her Jewish family history. (PG13) 80 minutes. In Polish with English subtitles. (***1/2)—Lisa Jensen.
JERSEY BOYS Reviewed this issue. (R) 134 minutes. (**1/2)—Lisa Jensen. MALEFICENT The “evil fairy” and designated villain from Sleeping Beauty gets to tell her side of the story in Disney’s live-action revision, starring a formidable Angelina Jolie. The narrative stumbles, as in an ugly gratuitous battle sequence. But more than just an unhappy romance, the heinous act committed against Maleficent that hardens her heart has enormous symbolic weight for female viewers. Robert Stromberg directs. (PG) 97 minutes. (***)—Lisa Jensen. THE ROVER In a lawless, desolated Mad Max-style near future, a loner (Guy Pearce) wandering the backroads loses his car to a gang of thieves. Robert Pattinson co-stars as a wounded thief left behind who Pearce forces into helping him track down the gang. Directed by David Michod, whose first film was the tough Aussie crime drama Animal Kingdom. (R) 102 minutes. THINK LIKE A MAN TOO Most of the cast from the 2010 sleeper rom-com hit are back in a plot that takes them all to Las Vegas for a wedding. Expect plenty of chaos to ensue on the way to the altar. Kevin Hart, Gabrielle Union, Regina Hall, Michael Ealy, Taraji P. Henson, and Jerry Ferrara star for returning director Tim Story. (PG-13) 106 minutes.
WORDS AND PICTURES Clive Owen and Juliette Binoche star as unlikely romantic partners who meet at an upscale prep school—he’s an extroverted English teacher, and she’s a reserved art teacher. Yet romance blossoms as they become caught up in a debate between their students over whether words or pictures are more important. Veteran Australian-born director Fred Schepisi (The Chant of Jimmie Blacksmith; Last Orders) directs. (PG-13) 111 minutes. X-MEN: DAYS OF FUTURE PAST In this doomsday scenario, Hugh Jackman’s Logan/Wolverine is sent into the past to enlist the mutants’ younger selves in an epic battle for the future. James McAvoy steals his scenes as a despondent, cynical younger Charles Xavier who has to be coaxed back into (psychological) fighting trim, and Evan Peters is a riot as Quicksilver (a refreshing touch in such a dark story). But returning original director Bryan Singer can no longer maintain the focus on the personal stories that have always fueled the franchise, and the robot apocalypse finale is more exhausting than cathartic. Michael Fassbender, Jennifer Lawrence, Nicholas Hoult, and Peter Dinklage co-star, alongside series stalwarts Patrick Stewart and Ian McKellen. (PG-13) 131 minutes. (**1/2)—Lisa Jensen.

Stanley Tucci, Li Bingbing , Kelsey Grammer, and Sophia Myles co-star for director Michael Bay. Bring your earplugs. (PG13) 166 minutes. Starts Friday.

If you have enough for the next day, top off a salad of arugula, asparagus and fava beans with a piece of salmon, splash on a dijon vinaigrette and give thanks that you live on the Central Coast.

IT’S A ZIN The Plum Zinfandel Sorbet is back at Mission Hill Creamery.

Stone fruit sorbet and wild Monterey Bay salmon are both in season BY CHRISTINA WATERS
D
avid Kumec, guru of Mission Hill Creamery's outrageous hand-crafted ice creams and sorbets, alerted me about his latest sexy seasonal flavor. Now available at the Pacific Avenue shop is last year's big fruit-flavored hit—Plum Zinfandel Sorbet. From the Creamery's organic plum harvest comes this densely flavored, tart and beautifully crimson-colored sorbet. And what it is, is fabulous. "The organic plums are sourced from our very own trees," Kumec told us, "and the Zinfandel is organic
and dry-farmed from Condor's Hope." You can find Condor's Hope wines (the brainchild of UC Santa Cruz’s Agroecology program founder Steve Gliessman) at the Westside and Downtown Farmers Markets. After you've eaten your fill of Mission Hill Creamery's Plum Zinfandel Sorbet, check out the summer harvests at the markets. Last week's Westside Farmers Market was bursting with nectarines, apricots, fava beans, young red onions, sublime new potatoes (Everett Family Farms), pencil asparagus (steam for only one
minute), strawberries, and plums. Also a reminder—the UCSC Farm & Garden cart is now showcasing early summer strawberries, lettuces, herbs and yes, plums! Look for the apprentice farmers on Tuesday and Friday from noon to 6 p.m. at the foot of campus intersection of Bay and High streets.

Just Plum Delicious
Artisan restaurant in Paso Robles has moved into a more diner-friendly space on the charming zócalo in this atmospheric cow-town-turnedwinetasting-mecca. Armed with a sensational Bodegas Paso Robles Tempranillo 2009, made by vintner Dorothy Schuler, we considered dining options. The wine opened into an opulent organism of spicy plum and smoky almond tones. We began with small plates. One showcased succulent pork belly with grilled peaches, blue cheese cream and thin shiitake mushrooms. Ribbons of small red pepper added a sweet kick, and diagonal slices of extraordinarily crisp, delicious celery tasted like a whole new vegetable. Another starter offered small islands of spiced salmon tartare atop al dente rafts of asparagus, dusted with fat fava beans and pine nuts. As our small plates arrived, we soaked up the appealing qualities of the new dining room. The floor of cork, walls of repurposed barn woods, upholstered banquettes and booths, and tables custom-made from local walnut trees that had fallen to the elements—all made for a dining space filled with buoyant sound rather than loud, harsh noise. We split the house charcuterie plate which included a brilliant rabbit paté topped with a thin float of duck lard. With it arrived long slices of prosciutto and a nest of fiery salami. The paté—spread atop bits of woodfired housemade sourdough—was so good in its earthy sweetness we could barely believe it. Congratulations to the outstanding staff and chef Chris Kobayashi—we now have a new favorite dining destination in this rugged California frontier town.

L
ooking for a fabulous wine to star in your Fourth of July weekend? I recommend treating yourself to the 2008 Pinot Noir from the Corralitos Wine Company. This knock-your-socksoff stunner is a dark ruby wonder with violet streaks. Winemaker and company founder Rob Marani says he held back the release of this wine “waiting for the component parts to mesh.” In retrospect, it was a good call, says Marani. A fine Pinot Noir is most certainly worth waiting for. I did not, however, wait to open a bottle and enjoy a robust mouthful of the inky splendor. And before that first taste, sensuous aromas of wood scents, black cherry, tea and cola offer a tantalizing preview of what’s to come—the delightful satisfaction of enjoying a really well-made wine. This sleek and silky beauty caresses the tongue with its dark fruit and earth tones. Pair it with a juicy steak or a classic beef bourguignon – but don’t waste this wine to braise the beef! Produced from the La Tache clone in the respected Santa Lucia Highlands Vineyard in Monterey County, this beautiful Pinot sells for $56 and is worth every penny. I visited Marani last week in his tasting room to try the ’09 Pinot, which will be released “very soon.” American Idol’s James Durbin happened to stop in while I was there, and the three of us enjoyed an array of local flavors and good conversation. Marani’s tasting room on Soquel
Drive in Aptos is open only for private tastings, usually limited to about 20 people, and if you want tapas as well, Marani will provide them for around $20 per person—including the wine tasting. Corralitos Wine Company usually sells wine by the case to those on the allocation list, with a limit of two cases per customer. A significant discount is given to such customers. Contact rob@corralitoswinecompany. com for more information. Corralitoswinecompany.com.
NEW WINERY POURING AT VINOCRUZ Ser Wine Company is one of the new wineries on the block, and Vinocruz will be hosting them for a tasting from 3-5 p.m.on Sunday afternoon, June 29. For more information, contact Vinocruz, 705 Front St. # 101, Santa Cruz, 426-8466.

She took it inside and lovingly cut it up and then she watched you eat it, and she really enjoyed that.” DISCOUNTS FOR

GT: Wait, do I live here? Rachel Wisotsky: You do! It’s Your Place. The joke on that is I love “Who’s On First?” I love the confusion. You’re on the phone: ‘Where do you want to go?’ ‘I want to go to Your Place.’ I love that for a brief moment your brain goes, “What’s in my fridge? Did I clean my house?” Eventually I’m hoping to do a commercial.
told you to be careful with: all that stuff is pennies on eBay, pennies. I’m investing more in the postage than I am in actual items, because grandkids say “This isn’t cool.”
I notice your menu fuses homey ideas with surprising twists. You just want it to fricking taste good and be yummy and good for you, but at the same time it is mashed potatoes with gravy. It’s not going to be the only thing you should ever eat. There are things that are traditional, and then there are healthier things. The menu reflects that, [e.g.,] the pear salad. The Gorgonzola salad is probably my favorite. Everything’s good with bacon. The warm spinach salad has bacon and egg.
Where do you get your creamy butter?
Do people ask why the old flowery plates don’t match?
We’re making butter! You have whole milk, and you shake it quite a bit, and you make butter. It’s really one of the easiest things to make, and you whip it. People are liking it because it’s not salted.
No, people have enjoyed it. I just went on eBay. The things your grandma

+ RISA’S STARS BY RISA D’ANGELES ISOLATION VS. THE CROWD
Friday is the new moon festival of Cancer. “Let isolation be the rule, yet the crowd exist.” This is how we feel when we are learning how to be in the world. We are in the world yet feel isolated from everything and everyone. Cancer climbs under its Cancer shell for protection. Isolated, even in a crowd. This is the personality-building experience in Cancer. Gradually we “build a lighted house” to dwell in—and invite everyone over. With the Cancer sun high above the earth, humanity is to assimilate this golden light for the rest of the year. To assimilate light, our bodies must be filled with light. We are to drink pure, fresh water and juices, and eat fresh vegetables and fruits grown in the sun.
Then the sun’s golden rays more easily rest in our heart (lotus) and stream out to others. This is how we transform each other. Cancer is the sign of mother, nurture and nourishment. Solstices bring a state of equilibrium and balance to all life on earth. From solstice throughout the summer we are to reorganize our diets and breathe in the light of the sun, absorbing it through our bodies. This allows the prana (Sanskrit for life force, qi, chi, cosmic energy from the Sun streaming through the elements) to easily circulate. We are to be and live in a lightweight, light-filled house (our bodies and environment), building in the summer our “light-filled house.”
ARIES Mar21–Apr20
LIBRA Sep23–Oct22
In past weeks as you initiated (Aries’ task) project after project, things always changed, went haywire, something always hindered progress. As this begins to ease, you realize how tired you’ve become pushing the rock up the hill, only to have it fall back down again, rolling over and upon you. Care for yourself now. Nurture your body, emotions, mind and spirit, until you feel strong and ennobled again.
Often your dilemma is between home/family and business/profession. Libra is where decisions are made on how to blend self needs with the needs of others, and how family fits into pursuing business success. When we stand under and align with the will-to-good in all matters, personal and worldly, then right choices, right actions and right relations come forth. Begin each day with these words. “I align with the will-to-good.” Visualize this. Your life changes.
Esoteric Astrology as news for week June 25- July 1, 2014
TAURUS Apr21–May21 You’re being provided with information concerning the nurturance and sustainment of humanity’s future. If you’re not in a formal study/school then you’re receiving information from above, impressions falling into your mind. Ideas begin to flow concerning how to create a sustainable and secure future for yourself and others. The information comes incrementally, step by step. Listen carefully to the messages, directions. Respond immediately.
GEMINI May 22–June 20 Read all the signs each week and every week’s introduction so you have access to all the wisdom information. You’re to synthesize all polarities (oppositions, dualities). It takes knowledge to do this. This subtle, vital task for Gemini is rarely known. You seek the Ageless Wisdom teachings, the Mysteries, a Teacher and a group. They are here, written for you. The door has opened. Enter soon.
CANCER Jun21–Jul20
At some point, you will have the courage to face all fears, slowly and confidently. You’ve been feeling too hermetic to move beyond protection, safety and comfort. The money situation will shift as new values and resources emerge. An ending of things is slowly taking place. You thought you were the only one who transforms. Watch as humanity begins to experience what it’s like to be under the tutelage of Scorpio (Saturn in Scorpio). Life transforms for everyone.
SAGITTARIUS Nov22–Dec20 Here are a few tasks for you to tend to in the coming months. Tend to all financial responsibilities before they’re due. Tend to the care and conservation of your energy (self, money, resources). Tend to family and friends with loving care and understanding. Realize nothing is moving swiftly now, including career. Everything’s down under. Go slowly each day. Ambition is good and dreams come true—in the right timing.
CAPRICORN Dec21–Jan20 A bit of travel would be good. Most likely you can’t travel now due to work schedules, bad timing, pre-planned agendas, etc. By August you may have more time. In the meantime, what’s local is where you feel the most comfort, learn the most and be the most interested (and interesting to others). Ask for what’s needed always. Be careful of other drivers. Maintain your car(s).
LE0 Jul21–Aug22
AQUARIUS Jan21–Feb18
Are you concerned about finances? Is there a dilemma concerning use of (shared perhaps) resources? For a real flow of money to be available, give your money away. Tithe to Red Cross, Doctors Without Borders, UNESCO, Catholic Charities, St. Jude’s Hospital, and Oxfam. Giving to those in need insures our future, our health and self-confidence. Leo is to gather all gifts and offer them to humanity. Humanity, suffering and in need, is grateful.
People think different things about Aquarians—that they’re impractical, too fast, rigid or lacking in discipline. None of these really apply. You’re often practical, especially concerning money and finances. You seek closeness with others and make choices based on who loves and cares for you. For now, take extra care with resources and money. Careful with communication. Speak clearly and slowly. Someone loving comes your way.
VIRGO Aug23–Sep22
PISCES Feb19–Mar20
Do you feel your ideas are going nowhere? Do you have goals that seem conflicted and conflicting? Are you feeling conflicted too? It’s possible you’re serious now. Saturn, in your third house of thoughts and thinking, is actually the Dweller on the Threshold asking you, “What are you thinking, does it produce goodwill?” You also could be self-critical. Do not allow this. Begin to serve others like Leo above. Then obstructions are eliminated.
You have attempted to gain independence recently in order to express your gifts and unique talents freely and without hindrances. You will re-examine your choices and reassess them in coming months. You will see where and how you’re needed in the future. Write out what you seek to express and where you need to be for this to come forth. Who is impacted by your decisions and what would improve, enhance and enrich your life?
SANTACRUZ.COM | GTWEEKLY.COM | JUNE 25-JULY 1, 2014
You’re alone now. However, later you will work with other earth signs, especially Taurus. As they provide the information needed, you will bring financial know-how and a nurturing vitality. You provide the calm directions, intuitive analysis, so others can begin to build new minds and learn. While Taurus provides the light, you take that light and build the “light-filled house” where others can therein dwell.

What do you folks like to cook? STACIE: “We often cook together and make a lot of California-style dishes with sauces, using fresh ingredients. Tim likes to barbecue — we get a lot of meat from Shopper’s butcher shop!” TIM: “My dad had a butcher shop so I know good cuts of meat. Though we shop here six days a week, I like to see what other markets offer. I recently saw a display of rib steaks elsewhere which looked like they were cut with a chain saw! Had to share that with my brother Paul (meat department manager). Stacie also does a lot of Italian cooking, which she learned from my mother.”
Is it good?! TIM: “It tastes just like what my grandmother and mother used to make.” STACIE: “Shopper’s has a really good variety of dry pasta, most you cannot find in other stores. We’re always using Shopper’s olive oils, and their cheeses are phenomenal: a great selection plus they cut and wrap them, and you don’t have to buy them in large quantities. I like that I can get all my local produce here — you can pay more for organic produce at farmers markets.” TIM: “They carry a lot of local and Santa Cruz Mountain wines. I’m blown away by the variety and quality, and the pricing is fair.”

Does quality factor into shopping here? TIM: “Some people think by shopping the chains, they’re getting a deal. If you compare prices, Shopper’s is almost always cheaper plus you’re getting across-the-board quality. We also like that our money spent here stays local.” STACIE: “Shopper’s is more personal: from the butchers, cashiers — everyone — they respect us as customers. They’re invested in themselves and us; it’s like a community.” TIM: “Shopper’s service — the butchers are all ‘sir,’ ‘ma’am’ — is superior to anywhere else.” STACIE: “Shopper’s Corner is a one-of-a-kind grocery store.”
