LIBRA Sep23–Oct22

Would you like your savings account to grow? Then deposit money into it on a consistent basis. Would you like to feel good and have a lot of physical energy? Eat healthy food, sleep as much as you need to, and exercise regularly. Do you want people to see the best in you and give you the benefit of the doubt? See the best in them and give them the benefit of the doubt. Would you love to accomplish your most important goal? Decide what you want more than anything else and focus on it with relaxed intensity. Yes, Aries, life really is that simple—or at least it is right now. If you want to attain interesting success, be a master of the obvious.

In the last two decades, seven Academy Award winners have given thanks to God while accepting their Oscars. By contrast, 30 winners have expressed their gratitude to film studio executive Harvey Weinstein. Who would you acknowledge as essential to your success, Libra? What generous souls, loving animals, departed helpers, and spiritual beings have contributed to your ability to thrive? Now is an excellent time to make a big deal out of expressing your appreciation. For mysterious reasons, doing so will enhance your luck and increase your chances for future success.

TAURUS Apr20–May20 Your urge to merge is heating up. Your curiosity about combinations is intensifying. I think it's time to conduct jaunty experiments in mixing and blending. Here's what I propose: Let your imagination run half-wild. Be unpredictable as you play around with medleys and hodgepodges and sweet unions. But don't be attached to the outcomes. Some of your research may lead to permanent arrangements, and some won't. Either result is fine. Your task is to enjoy the amusing bustle, and learn all you can from it.

You have permission to compose an all-purpose excuse note for yourself. If you'd like, you may also forge my signature on it so you can tell everyone that your astrologer sanctified it. This document will be ironclad and inviolable. It will serve as a poetic license that abolishes your guilt and remorse. It will authorize you to slough off senseless duties, evade deadening requirements, escape small-minded influences, and expunge numbing habits. Even better, your extra-strength excuse note will free you to seek out adventures you have been denying yourself for no good reason.

GEMINI May21–June20

SAGITTARIUS Nov22–Dec21

The American painter Ivan Albright (1897-1983) was a meticulous creator. He spent as much time as necessary to get every detail right. An entire day might go by as he worked to perfect one square inch of a painting, and some of his pieces took years to finish. When the task at hand demanded intricate precision, he used a brush composed of a single hair. That's the kind of attention to minutia I recommend for you—not forever, but for the next few weeks. Be careful and conscientious as you build the foundation that will allow you maximum freedom of movement later this year.

In the Inuktitut language spoken in northern Canada, the term iminngernaveersaartunngortussaavunga means "I should try not to become an alcoholic." I encourage you to have fun saying that a lot in the coming days. Why? Now is an excellent time to be playful and lighthearted as you wage war against any addictive tendencies you might have. Whether it's booze or gambling or abusive relationships or anything else that tempts you to act like an obsessive self-saboteur, you have more power than usual to break its hold on you—especially if you don't take yourself too seriously.

CANCER Jun21–Jul22

CAPRICORN Dec22–Jan19

The Venus de Milo is a famous Greek statue that's over 2,100 years old. Bigger than life size, it depicts the goddess of love, beauty, and pleasure. Its current home is the Louvre Museum in Paris, but for hundreds of years it was lost—buried underground on the Greek island of Milos. In 1820, a farmer found it while he was out digging on his land. I foresee a comparable discovery by you in the coming weeks, Cancerian. You will uncover a source of beauty, love, or pleasure—or perhaps all three—that has been missing or forgotten for a long time.

Percival Lowell (1855-1916) was an influential astronomer who launched the exploration that led to the discovery of Pluto. He also made some big mistakes. Here's one: Gazing at Venus through his telescope, he swore he saw spokes emanating from a central hub on the planet's surface. But we now know that Venus is shrouded with such thick cloud cover that no surface features are visible. So what did Lowell see? Due to an anomaly in his apparatus, the telescope projected shadows from inside his eyes onto the image of Venus. The "spokes" were actually the blood vessels in his retinas. Let this example serve as a cautionary tale for you in the coming weeks, Capricorn. Don't confuse what's within you with what's outside you. If you can clearly discern the difference, your closest relationships will experience healing breakthroughs.

SCORPIO Oct23–Nov21

According to an ancient Greek myth, Sisyphus keeps pushing a boulder up a steep hill only to lose control of it just before he reaches the top, watching in dismay as it tumbles to the bottom. After each failure, he lumbers back down to where he started and makes another effort to roll it up again—only to fail again. The myth says he continues his futile attempts for all eternity. I'm happy to report, Leo, that there is an important difference between your story and that of Sisyphus. Whereas you have tried and tried and tried again to complete a certain uphill task, you will not be forever frustrated. In fact, I believe a breakthrough will come soon, and success will finally be yours. Will it be due to your gutsy determination or your neurotic compulsion or both? It doesn't matter.

AQUARIUS Jan20–Feb18 “I believe in getting into hot water; it keeps you clean.” So said British writer G. K. Chesterton. Now I'm passing his advice on to you just in time for the Purge and Purify Phase of your astrological cycle. In the coming weeks, you will generate good fortune for yourself whenever you wash your own brain and absolve your own heart and flush the shame out of your healthy sexual feelings. As you proceed with this work, it may expedite matters if you make a conscious choice to undergo a trial by fire.

VIRGO Aug23–Sep22

PISCES Feb19–Mar20

Many of America's founding fathers believed slavery was immoral, but they owned slaves themselves and ordained the institution of slavery in the U.S. Constitution. They didn't invent hypocrisy, of course, but theirs was an especially tragic version. In comparison, the hypocrisy that you express is mild. Nevertheless, working to minimize it is a worthy task. And here's the good news: You are now in a position to become the zodiac's leader in minimizing your hypocrisy. Of all the signs, you can come closest to walking your talk and practicing what you preach. So do it! Aim to be a master of translating your ideals into practical action.

“I awake in a land where the lovers have seized power,” writes Danish poet Morten Sondergaard in his fanciful poem “The Lovers.” "They have introduced laws decreeing that orgasms need never come to an end. Roses function as currency . . . The words 'you' and 'I' are now synonymous.” A world like the one he describes is a fantasy, of course. It's impossible. But I predict that in the coming weeks you could create conditions that have resemblances to that utopia. So be audacious in your quest for amorous bliss and convivial romance. Dare to put love at the top of your priority list. And be inventive!

Homework: Picasso said, “I am always doing that which I cannot do in order that I may learn how to do it.” Your comment? Write uaregod@comcast.net.

<4 QUESTIONS ON JAIL Concerning your recent article on the Grand Jury report about deaths in our county jail: in my view, these deaths are a tragic and unacceptable symptom of a disease. That disease is mass incarceration driven by the prison/industrial complex, and fueled by institutional racism, and several questions need to be asked if we are to honestly address this issue. We need to ask why our country imprisons a greater percentage of its citizens than any other country in the world. We need to ask why Black Americans, who comprise 12 percent

of the population, compose 40 percent of all prison populations. We need to ask why our county jail has decided to outsource its medical care beyond local control, when the federal court has found that medical care provided to state prison inmates violates their constitutional protection against cruel and unusual punishment. And, perhaps most immediately, we need to ask why our governor is designating millions in state funds for “brick and mortar” jail programs, and not one cent for the rehabilitative and support services.

FEELING YUCKY Patrawat Samermit’s recent UCSC study takes a close look at how our brains process humor. PHOTO: CHIP SCHEUER

I Started a Joke

T

he physical act of pulling someone’s leg can make you a funnier person. At least for a short period of time following the act, says Patrawat Samermit, a Ph.D student of cognitive psychology at UCSC. The same is true for yanking someone’s chain. Samermit, who has ambitions to be the next Margaret Cho, is not pulling our leg (although she’d clearly like to). Her recent humor cognition study used mannequins to find out how enacting embodied metaphors of humor may affect

humor production. After the yanking and pulling, test subjects were given New Yorker cartoons and asked to write as many funny captions as they could think of. “Students who were primed to yank the chain and pull the leg actually had statistically significant higher funniness ratings than the control group, and they are trending toward significantly higher creativity ratings as well,” says Samermit. The study, now in its final stages, is modelled after a 2011 study published in Psychological Science which

tested people on creativity after enacting several different embodied metaphors—including sitting outside of a box versus sitting inside a box (with—yes this is maddening— positive outside-the-box results). Samermit is well aware of how crazy all of this probably sounds. But a term paper’s worth of complex humor theories (which we won’t get into here) makes it sound pretty legit. And with a history in improv comedy, she’s no stranger to all sorts of bizarre wit-increasing games and association exercises—although she’s determined to make some

UCSC humor study literally pulls legs and yanks chains to measure brain’s responses BY MARIA GRUSAUSKAS

breakthroughs in the area. So why should you care about being funnier? Well, let’s start with the obvious reason: it may make you more attractive to others—not that you need to be any hotter than you already are. “Being humorous really requires you to be able to make novel associations, but the act of being humorous causes people to like you, because it’s creating a higher dopamine response in the basal ganglia—it’s rewarding to be around you,” says Samermit. But lighting up the reward center of the brain is only one of laughter’s many bodily blessings which remain on-call from the age of three months until death. As it turns out, creating more laughter around you (and within you) is sort of like handing out free medicine to everyone you meet. “Studies show that people who laugh more last longer,” says Samermit. And by “studies,” she doesn’t mean some undergrads in a room tugging on mannequin legs (no offense). Several clinical studies on laughter and longevity support her claim, including a two-year 2006 study in Norway which found that cancer patients who maintained a sense of humor increased their odds of survival by 31 percent. “[People who laugh a lot] have lower blood pressure, which makes sense, lower anxiety, and their health doesn’t decline quite as quickly,” says Samermit. Perhaps the most profound benefit of a good old LOL is that it lowers levels of cortisol and epinephrine—the stress and “fight or flight” hormones. But humor and laughter are not one and the same, warns Samermit—laughter is a trait of humor, but it’s also a major social signal dating back to early man. “Chimps and gorillas have this funny form of laughter, a breathy sound,” says Samermit, making the sound, much to the benefit of the pedestrians walking by. “Pretend we’re chimps in Africa, and there’s something rustling in really tall grass. It may be a snake, it may be a panther, but out pops a baby chimp, one of our children. And one of us lets out this laughter signal, and that’s a signifier that everything is OK.”

BRIDGING THE GAP Santa Cruz City Council finds a compromise on campaign finance reform

JULY 2-8, 2014 | GTWEEKLY.COM | SANTACRUZ.COM

BY ARIC SLEEPER

12

The debate over campaign finance reform in Santa Cruz took a surprising turn last week, when Santa Cruz City Councilmember David Terrazas proposed reinstating a voluntary limit on campaign expenditures for City Council races, after joining in a vote against a similar proposal two weeks ago. “I think we need to look at some additional signals of restraint in regards to our campaign expenditures,” Terrazas said at the June 24 council meeting. The new voluntary limit would be a guideline for how much money candidates can raise, although it’s about $10,000 higher than the limit from previous elections. Organizations will no longer be able to contribute more than individuals to candidates who accept the limits. This all started with a discussion about campaign finance reform at a June 10 council meeting, when Councilmember Micah Posner and Vice Mayor Don Lane introduced a proposal that aimed to rein in council candidate spending. Under an ordinance created over a decade ago, the city of Santa Cruz had provided incentives to candidates who agreed to voluntary contribution and expenditure limits for their political campaigns, which would have been just under $29,000 for the 2014 election season. Lane and Posner’s proposal sought to make the voluntary limits City Council candidates can receive from individuals and groups—$345 and $825 respectively—mandatory. It would have also created an option for those candidates who agree to the voluntary overall expenditure limit to receive up to about $15,000 in matching money from the city’s general fund. Posner and Lane said they believed the public funding would “level the playing field” for economically disadvantaged and first-time candidates, and those not as experienced in the art of fundraising. “The reason I am bringing this up,” Posner said at the June 10 City Council meeting “is because I view the

T

his summer, the case against several activists who illegally occupied the former Wells Fargo bank at 75 River St. in 2011 will continue to crawl slowly along at Santa Cruz Superior Court. It would be too early to say things are falling apart for the District Attorney’s office, which sounded confident two years ago, but the situation isn’t rosy for the prosecutors. Defense attorney Alexis Briggs recently filed a brief arguing District Attorney Bob Lee’s previous business relationship with Wells Fargo poses a conflict of interest, and that he should be removed from the case. Defense attorneys recently discovered Lee took out a $34,000 loan from the bank to pay for campaign expenses for the 2010 election—in which he ran unopposed. Fellow defense

attorney Jesse Ruben filed a motion alleging various prosecutorial mismanagements. Depending on the judge’s interpretations, the latest developments could end up as blips in the now more than two-year-old court case—or the latest snag in a trial that’s seen its share of miscues from prosecutors, including a $500 fine, dismissed charges and delays. Assistant District Attorney Greg Peinado isn’t sweating the defense’s motions. “We don’t believe it’s a conflict of interest,” Peinado says of Lee’s loan. “At the end of the day, it’s an old loan.” An estimated $22,000 in damages, including graffiti and punctured walls, resulted from the three-day takeover of the bank, although no one has been convicted. Eleven people were arrested in connection with the takeover, which grew out

of the Occupy Santa Cruz movement. Charges against seven of them were dismissed by the court, but four people are still facing trial. Their next court date is set for Aug. 27. All the suspects, often collectively dubbed “The Santa Cruz 11,” were originally charged with felony vandalism, felony conspiracy to commit vandalism and two misdemeanor counts of trespassing. Judge Paul Burdick first dismissed the cases against photographer Bradley Allen and videographer Alex Darocy, whose attorneys argued that the two were present at the building for journalistic purposes only. Defense attorneys Ben Rice and George Gigarjian garnered support for their clients in the form of amicus briefs from the ACLU of Northern California and the National Press Photographers Association. Rice and Gigarjian argued that

THEN THERE WERE FOUR <12 prosecuting their clients was a violation of the First Amendment’s guarantee of a free press. The decision was significant. The Supreme Court has consistently ruled that the First Amendment doesn’t protect journalists from laws not specifically targeting the press—including trespass laws. And San Francisco media attorney Jim Wagstaffe had said he’d never seen a case upholding a journalist’s constitutional right to trespass on private property. Still, this situation might have been special. In the cases of Darocy and Allen, attorneys pointed out that other members of local media, like the Santa Cruz Sentinel, had also been at the property, but weren’t charged. Charges also were dismissed against Desiree Foster, Edward Rector, Grant Wilson and wellknown community activists Robert Norse and Becky Johnson. As the number of defendants dwindled, Burdick dismissed the conspiracy charge against the remaining defendants, ruling there was no evidence of direct collusion or agreement. He held the charge of felony vandalism, using the theory that it was a direct and natural

consequence of the trespassing. Since then, trial dates for Cameron Laurendeau, Gabriella Ripley-Phipps, Brent Adams and Franklin Alcantara have been postponed and pushed back multiple times as the wheels of justice continue to spin. Along the way, the case has been fraught with controversy, confusion and complications. Defense attorney Briggs calls the situation “Kafka-esque,” saying the duration of the case has kept her client and the other defendants in a state of continued limbo. Since the prosecution began, “I’ve conceived, gone through pregnancy and birthed a baby,” she says. Estimates vary wildly when it comes to how many people entered the building during the three-day occupation, anywhere from a few dozen to more than a hundred, many of them at a dance party. But casual observers might have noticed T-shirts saying “I Was in the Building: Support the Santa Cruz 11” around town. The prosecution has been complicated by the lack of evidence directly linking any of the defendants to the vandalism. Activists entered 75 River St. on the afternoon of Nov. 30, 2011 and clashed with riot gear-clad Santa

Cruz Police, who eventually retreated in favor of diplomatic discussions. Almost 72 hours later, the group left the building peacefully. No one was arrested at that time. The Police Department put together their case and submitted it, along with surveillance video and photographs, to the District Attorney’s Office for review. No charges were filed until February 2012. Activists first entered the building after a march against foreclosures and the mortgage crisis, an event organized by Occupy Santa Cruz. The group who entered eventually sent out a memo explaining that they were acting “autonomously and anonymously, but in solidarity with Occupy Santa Cruz.” They wanted to turn the vacant building into a community center. Briggs’ client, Laurendeau, is one of the four who remains in limbo as the case continues to lag. At one point, Judge Burdick dismissed charges against him citing a lack of specific evidence but the District Attorney’s Office later refiled. Briggs says that there is no direct evidence showing her client committed vandalism, and that the theory that vandalism was a natural and probable consequence of trespassing doesn’t hold water. >18

Anyone who enjoys browsing Cedar Street Video in downtown Santa Cruz has about two weeks left to do so. Owner Sammi Abed announced Monday that he’ll be closing the store and selling off its DVD inventory between now and mid-July, ending a 10-year run of rentals at the location. “Business dropped off with the World Cup, and I couldn’t see myself committing to a two-year lease when I don’t know the future,” Abed says. “The customers are really upset, but we’re just telling everyone to go to East Cliff.”

Abed, a paramedic who also just graduated with an American Studies degree from UCSC, still owns two other rental stores—East Cliff Video, which has been open 31 years, and Boulder Creek’s Video 9, which has been open for 28. East Cliff Video has about an extra 1,000 feet of retail space over Cedar Street Video, which is on the corner of Cedar and Cathcart streets. Cedar Street Video’s movie sale will continue every day from noon to 7 p.m., now through July 15—except July 4— with prices getting lower as the closing date nears. “Everyone that works there is really

bummed,” Abed says. “We’re going to move folks to the other store. We didn’t want to [close]. We just couldn’t make sense of it any longer.”

FULL CYCLE Tawn Kennedy of Greenways to School is introducing a new program that lets Watsonville kids earn bikes by helping out their community. Students at an eight-week summer Bike Tech class at Pajaro Valley High School can work for a new set of wheels by volunteering— helping at school gardens, or with events, for example. “I just wanted to provide a way for youth to get bikes,

and also give them a way to start to see themselves as role models,” says Kennedy. Kennedy says cycling has grown more popular among kids in Watsonville. Things are moving in terms of policy too, with more than $1 million in funding through the RTC to build part of the Santa Cruz Rail Trail in Watsonville. The stretch is about three quarters of a mile, and will connect Lee Road to the Wetland Trail System. For information on how to donate a bike, visit greenways2school.org. JACOB PIERCE

TWO FOR THE MONEY City Councilmembers Micah Posner and Cynthia Mathews supported a compromise on city council

election spending one week after disagreeing on campaign finance reform.

country as a whole to have a problem with the amount of money that is spent on political races.” After public comment, councilmembers voiced their concerns. Terrazas stated that the proposal was “a solution looking for a problem,” and Councilmember Pamela Comstock pointed out that the proposal did not address money spent by special interest groups to endorse candidates, also known as independent expenditures. Comstock highlighted an $8,300 independent expenditure made by a labor union that benefited Posner in the 2012 election. “As long as special interest groups have a hand in elections, the playing field will never be level,” she said. Councilmember Cynthia Mathews then presented a pair of game-changing amendments just as Posner’s proposal was about to go to a vote: one to establish mandatory contribution limits of $350 from any entity, whether they be an

individual, corporation, or organization; and the second to repeal provisions of the city code which would eliminate voluntary expenditure limits entirely, and also nullify Posner’s public finance proposal. Mathews said that the existing voluntary limits have little benefit, and can even work against beginning candidates who may need to spend more money to make their presence known. She also stated that she was against the use of public financing for candidates. The universal contribution limit of $350 passed unanimously. The decision to repeal the voluntary expenditure limits passed 4-3, with Lane, Posner, and Councilmember Hilary Bryant voting against it. “I was shocked,” Posner said in the days prior to the June 24 council meeting, where Mathews’ amendments were expected to be finalized. At the second reading of the amendments, Terrazas proposed reinstating the voluntary expenditure

limits, but with a higher ceiling of $38,064, which Mathews agreed was a more realistic amount. Terrazas also asked that the city attorney explore options to make independent expenditures made by special interest groups more transparent. Lane then proposed a stipulation to the ordinance that would make it mandatory to post independent expenditures totaling more than $1000 for any given candidate on the city’s website, and release the information to the press within two business days. “We can’t stop the independent expenditures, but if we shine a bright light on them, I think it will both discourage the independent expenditures to some extent, but also counter them,” Lane said. The council included Lane’s addition, and the proposed amendments passed with a 6-1 vote, with Comstock, who felt the updates didn’t address independent expenditures, dissenting. Comstock—who did not accept the limits in her 2012 council bid, and raised

the most money of any candidate— says she would only support spending limits, voluntary or not, if they included independent expenditures by outside groups. “Really, it’s about whether you want special interests to control elections, or you want to give equal voice to voters,” she says. An official adoption of the amendments is still in order, and will take place on July 8. If no further arguments are made, the $350 mandatory contribution limit, the raised voluntary expenditure limit, and the reporting of independent expenditures will take effect in early August. Posner acknowledged that the council has embraced real change on the issue of local campaign finance reform. “I appreciate that the council is really wrestling with these issues,” Posner said at the June 24 council meeting. “I’ll just appreciate the progress of the council, and keep working for public financing as we go down the road.”

The case has also undergone cast changes. Assistant District Attorney Rebekah Young was initially in charge, an assignment she was given because of her previous experience in media, Lee’s office said at the time. But Young’s tenure with the case was tumultuous as she drew increasing ire from defense attorneys who complained numerous times that she wasn’t providing them with discovery— meaning evidence—as specified. After a preliminary hearing in January 2013 was finally held for Foster, Norse and Johnson, Burdick took the rare step of sanctioning Lee’s office $500 for its repeated delays in turning over evidence to the defense. He told prosecutor Young he was frustrated that he was hearing the same explanations repeatedly. Shortly after, Young took a job as a television reporter in Texas, and the case was handed over to Peinado. On appeal, the District Attorney’s Office acknowledged the delays in compliance, but argued it was due to unforeseen and unusual technical difficulties when it came to copying surveillance footage. The DA’s appeal also argued that Burdick gave the prosecution “inadequate opportunity to be heard, because the court didn’t allow the prosecutor to contest the lawfulness of the discovery order.” The appellate court flatly rejected that argument in April. The District Attorney has filed motions to remove Judge Burdick on several occasions, claiming bias, but those have been overruled—most recently by a Santa Clara judge— for lack of evidence of any lack of impartiality. Burdick has urged both sides to reach a resolution, and has commented numerous times in court about the case’s duration. Briggs said she’s willing to work out a deal, but so far nothing offered has been acceptable to the defense. The same goes for the prosecution’s side, although Peinado couldn’t comment on specifics. “We’ve discussed resolution,” he says. “At the end of the day, these people caused damage to someone else’s property and they need to be held responsible.”

Often touted as a fuel of the future, hydrogen has actually been recognized as a viable option for more than 50 years. <23 “The idea is to replace the MFC ‘solution’ [pure water and cultured bacteria] with wastewater that contains these kinds of bacteria naturally,” says Li. To ensure authenticity, researchers swapped the pure water solution with wastewater directly from the water treatment facility in Livermore, Calif. If you know someone who lives in Livermore, thank them—they may have unknowingly contributed to this research.

ROTTEN LUCK

SANTACRUZ.COM | GTWEEKLY.COM | JULY 2-8, 2014

Though it may be counterintuitive, Livermore’s dirty water is what makes the clean energy process sustainable. Human wastewater naturally contains organic material and electricity-generating bacteria. Seperately, the PEC and MFC both require an additional energy boost to drive full-fledged hydrogen production, and the added voltage is pricy. But putting them together created a symbiotic solution: the bacteria in the MFC feed off of the organic matter in the wastewater, and during digestion, produce energy in the form of electrons. These electrons are channeled to the PEC, supplying the final electrical nudge needed to reduce protons into hydrogen. In that sense, the MFC acts as a battery, providing energy and enabling the PEC to continuously make hydrogen gas. Essentially, as long as wastewater is available to the bacteria in the MFC, the PEC bubbles out hydrogen at a fairly constant rate. On the flip side, as the PEC splits water, the hydrogen is stored

in a cylinder and doled out as useful energy for the MFC. Between the chemical fuel-kick from the PEC and the bacteria-generated electrical jolt from the MFC, the hybridized device can take care of itself. It’s a self-perpetuating cycle that works to balance and propagate its counterpart. But that’s not to say Li and his team didn’t experience their share of unique issues. Occasionally, and for no apparent reason, the PECMFC simply stopped working. Wang suspects that the different bacteria in each batch of wastewater may have caused the PEC-MFC to briefly misbehave—some pools may have more electrogenic bacteria than other, especially because the wastewater is allocated for a small-scale setup. “Each batch of wastewater is different. Maybe the bacteria aren’t happy that day. Or are feeling lazy. They are live cells—they have their temper too,” Wang jokes. “There wasn’t a clear reason why some batches were better than others. So I’d try again, and it’d work.” With the overall striking success of the PEC-MFC in the lab, Wang and Li have big plans for future projects. Literally. The ultimate goal is to create a large-scale PEC-MFC that harnesses the same stinky raw materials and functions in the same self-perpetuating cycle—the only difference being the sheer quantity of hydrogen gas produced. A PEC-MFC that’s large enough to convert and pump hydrogen directly from a wastewater treatment facility is still just a schematic, but Li and Wang are actively taking steps toward achieving such a mega-device.Q

the GREEN ISSUE <27 Plenty of daily electronics emit radiation—but when PG&E actively started installing smart meter devices to homes in 2010 in order to track electricity use, the local backlash was quick and furious. The fight between locals and the utility company resulted in arrests, widespread outrage on both sides, and even power being shut off for some residents. “A lot of people don't want to be exposed [to radiation] and they’re trying to get the utility companies to remove them,â€? says Heiman “Which is like trying to push a bulldozer uphill.â€? The spectrum of conspiracy theories to valid health concerns that surrounds smart meters spans the country, and Heiman isn’t the first to propose a solution. “You can go on the Internet and there are people who sell, you know, crystal beads that are supposed to protect you from this ‌ there is a lot of snake oil out there, unfortunately,â€? says Heiman. Using his background in semiconductor processing, Heiman’s approach is a much more technical one, relying on the science to create an accessible product. “We’re really big on data,â€? he says. “We test the power density before and we test it after and you can see it drops way down as soon as you put [the guard] on.â€? But, exactly how much radiation seeps out of smart meters in comparison to microwaves, cell phones, and Wi-Fi routers? It’s a matter of power level and consistency of exposure, says Heiman. Cell phones and microwaves, for instance, only emit only when they are in use (i.e. during a phone call), while smart meters are on continuously. To Heiman, who says he’s never experienced health effects himself, protecting people’s homes from RF has more to do with peace of mind than combating health concerns. He and his partner don’t delve into the health issues of smart meters because they’re

not health experts, he says. But they do know a fair amount about RF. “RF power drops off fairly rapidly with distance from the source, so if you're really close to a smart meter you're getting pretty high power densities,� says Heiman. “Move away and it will drop an order of magnitude. You get further away and it drops more. The power level that you’re exposed to is a function of how close you are.� PG&E now offers an option to “opt out� of the smart meter in favor of an analog meter, which does not emit radiation. However, to install the analog machinery costs $75 with an additional $10 charge each month compared to the free smart meter. In comparison, Heiman and McSorley’s smart meter guards are $130 a pop. Judging by the thousands they’ve already sold to households all across the country—with requests from as far as Europe and Australia—the demand is building. Much of the controversy surrounding smart meters has to do with the fact that there is still little known about how damaging RF really is. A 2011 study of smart meters by the California Council on Science and Technology (CCST) concluded that not enough is known to require further protection. Similarly, in 2012 the World Health Organization sponsored the Interphone Study, which investigated the potential link between cell phone use and cancers. Their conclusions were equally as ambiguous. “After being in this business for a while I’ve come to realize that there’s a lot of unknowns about this,� said Heiman. “I’m kind of thinking that if I had a child that was sleeping in a bed on the other side of the wall of a smart meter radiating all the time, I’d be a little bit concerned. Who knows what it does to an infant?� Q For more information visit www.smartmeterguard.com.

The variables of fruit wine include sugar and acid—you need both to make a good wine, and unlike most grape wines, you want a little bit of sugar to remain unfermented. Crushing loquats—native to the Far East, and ripening all over town—in a five-pound bucket, and adding enough hot water to make it liquid, West creates the “must.� Leaving the skin on is key to making fruit wine, since it’s loaded with polyphenols and gives each wine its color. He tests the sugar level using a refractometer found on eBay, and adds a generous pound of white sugar to bring the sugar reading up to 22 brix. To kill any microbes, he's added sulfur. “Sulfur is a natural element which kills bacteria, kills anything that's in there— yeast, microbes, whatever,� says West. You can also bring the fruit to just before a boil to achieve the same results. But Schnaar, who likes to experiment with “whatever piles of fruit� come his way (and he is virtually pelted with fruit everywhere he goes), points out that you don’t necessarily need to sanitize your fruit—especially if it hasn’t been harvested off the ground. The next step is to inoculate the must with saccharomyces cerevisiae, sugar fungus, or yeast—sprinkle it on top, and do not stir. The yeast feasts on the sugar and multiplies,

creating alcohol as a byproduct, then dies off once it runs out of sugar or the alcohol level reaches about 13 percent—whichever happens first. Cover the batch in a fermenter, which can be purchased along with any other equipment at Seven Bridges Cooperative on River Street, and punch down the cap two times per day for 10 days. There are a few other steps you’ll need to take before you can enjoy your batch, but by this time, the tasting had begun, and I recommend doing what West does: “I just google anything I don't know,� he says. And oh, was it worth the wait. We tasted persimmon wine, the driest of West's varieties, and a sweet-as-cotton-candy Santa Rosa plum wine. Then it was on to cherry, loquat, blackberry, and olallieberry. All of the fruit came from neighbors’ harvests, with the olallieberry sourced from Gizdich Ranch, which sells inexpensive bags of frozen “shake�—the berry pieces that fall between the cracks—to local wine and ice cream makers. West was right—once that sweet wine began to flow, the gathering of strangers became a bubbling gaggle of sudden friends, and we had a party on our hands. When challenged to name drop his favorite Pinot Noir, West's reply was a refreshing embrace of the true DIY spirit: "Whichever wine I'm having is my favorite. I mean, you wouldn't say which child is your favorite—you just don't do that." Q To find out about upcoming SCFTP workshops and harvests, visit fruitcruz.org.

Pop parody, faux-faith merge in Cabrillo Stage’s energetic ‘Altar Boyz’ BY LISA JENSEN

T

o kick off its 2014 summer musical theater season, Cabrillo Stage delivers a terrific production of an oddball show, Altar Boyz. A longrunning hit that ran off-Broadway from 2005 to 2010, the show is designed as a revue-style jukebox musical; it purports to be a concert

HOT TICKET

by a fictitious, perfectly manicured and choreographed boy band of the era. The twist is that they’re selling a sunny Christian message, bumping and grinding for Jesus. There’s not really a plot. The show unfolds in real time, like a concert (no intermission), the last stop on the group’s “Raise the Praise”

Tour. The Boyz are swoon-worthy Matthew (Jamen Nanthakumar), Mark (Curtis Reynolds), Luke (Jomar Martinez), Juan (Brian Conway) and Abraham (Jordan Sidfield). These characters are unabashed stereotypes—street kid Luke, Hispanic Juan, Mark with his puppy-dog crush on Matthew—but

the excellent cast delivers them with plenty of heart and chutzpah. And Cabrillo Stage stalwart Janie Scott directs it all with breezy panache. The show has a sly sense of the way Christianity, and specifically the Catholic Church, is retooling its brand with a lot of technology to reel in youthful converts. “Jesus >38

is one song, and tweets from JC#Heaven appear on the jumbo screens that flank the stage, while an onscreen “Soul Sensor DX-12” calculates the number of souls being saved in the audience as the show goes on. There’s even a guest appearance by the voice of God, warning them not to “skew to an older demographic, which I detesteth.” Still, it’s often a strange mix, as the show tries to spoof some of the, er, thornier aspects of Christianity. There are fleeting jokes about faith-based obedience, religious intolerance (Abe says the only other Jew allowed in the church is the one nailed to the cross), and outlawed sex. (In “Something About You,” a love song to abstinence, Matthew barely stops short of confessing to the obvious alternative. In the same vein, Mark doesn’t quite dare confess to being gay; instead, he channels his sense of being out-of-synch into the religious-and-proud anthem, “I am … Catholic!”) But the spoofiness is so sweetnatured, so determined not to offend the faithful, that it muddies the distinction of satire. Those hoping for more irony in the epiphanies of the last few numbers—or a tad more bite— won’t find it. If anything, the show’s original creators (music and lyrics by Gary Adler and

Michael Patrick Walker, book by Kevin Del Aguila) have replicated a Christian boy band in such perfect detail, it feels like proselytizing for real. None of which detracts from the great pleasure of the actors’ high-octane performances in this production. Nanthakumar anchors the show as heartthrob/ leader Matthew, crooning to a female fan plucked out of the audience. Reynolds charms as relentlessly peppy Mark; he also does a hilarious riff on the tortured vibrato vocalizations so popular in mainstream pop. Conway’s flirty, flamboyant Juan; Martinez's hiphopping, sweetly bewildered Luke; and Sidfield’s engagingly chipper Abraham all have their moments as well. All five of these guys can sing and dance like crazy, in a demanding show that requires them to segue from Top-40 style pop harmonies and precision choreography into rap, breakdancing, gospel, and simmering Latino salsa. Special kudos are also due to the five-man onstage band, under the director of conductor and keyboardist Max Bennett-Parker. They back up the Boyz throughout and keep the music fresh and flowing. The Cabrillo Stage production of Altar Boyz plays through July 13 at the Crocker Theater, Cabrillo College. For tickets and information call (831) 479-6154, or visit cabrillostage.com.

ART LEADING THE ARTIST Peter Vizzusi says that when it comes to his art, he just does what the glass wants.

JULY 2-8, 2014 | GTWEEKLY.COM | SANTACRUZ.COM

Heart of Glass

40

Local glassblower Peter Vizzusi has found a following with his unique creations BY CHRISTINA WATERS

A

s Peter Vizzusi moves quickly (he does everything quickly) down the stairs leading to his glassblowing studio, I am plunged into a King Solomon's mines of dazzling hand-crafted treasure. Arranged like celestial gems, row after row, are the iridescent striped, dotted, and brilliantly hued tumblers, vases, and bowls that have made Vizzusi's work a fixture of galleries, museums, and high-end beach houses for 30 years. “These samples,” he says pointing to a forest of gold and turquoise

creations, “I’m getting ready to show the Getty buyer.” Yes, that Getty. Shades of blue, aqua, turquoise, cerulean and cobalt persistently inflect Vizzusi’s hand-blown glass collections, along with piquant red polka dots of glass accents. The studio is lodged in a sprawling compound built by his parents, and he and his yoga entrepreneur wife Melanie have been there since 1986. “There’s a lot of physical stuff involved in glass blowing,” says Vizzusi, coiling himself into a chair like a restless cheetah. He looks exactly as he did when I first

met him at the Art Center several decades ago, when he was fashioning art nouveau art glass out of melted wine bottles gleaned from the trash bins of India Joze restaurant. “The movements of blowing glass have to be very smooth,” he says. Sprezzatura is the Italian word for Vizzusi’s artisanal quest. “To conceal all art, to make it appear effortless— that’s what the glass wants. You need to coax it into shape. The glass dictates.” Armed with a master’s in ceramics and photography from San Jose State University, Vizzusi started

blowing glass in the wake of the first American studio glass masters: Peter Voulkos, Dale Chihuly and Jim Lundberg. “We were melting scrap from Owens Corning we got from a fiberglass shop in Santa Clara. It was crappy glass,” he laughs. That was the late ’70s, and he kept at it. Part Murano, part Tiffany, all New World, Vizzusi brought an understanding of the ancient Roman and Venetian styles to freshly conceived art glass. “While I respect the skill and traditions of the historical masters,” he says, “I'm free to explore the improvisational possibilities of the molten glass.” The whole process is about being ready—glass melted to the right temperature, colored glass rods, metallic oxides, and powdered hues standing by—so that Vizzusi can go into his choreography of gathering the glass onto long hollow rods, shaping the piece by blowing and twirling the glass, coaxing it into the desired shape, then adroitly twisting off the glass before it is placed into an annealing oven to cool, very slowly, to the point of being touchable. Glass is humbling, he admits. “The work is about the material,” he says. But when it’s going well, the transformation is so natural as to be almost unconscious. Everything has to be ready early in the morning—and once production starts, it has to keep moving. Firing an oven up to 2,300 degrees is a serious operation and Vizzusi isn’t about to waste all that energy. Today, Vizzusi makes his work in small, cult-inducing proportions. It’s currently available at the Getty Center stores, “a couple of select galleries, and locally at Many Hands and Annieglass.” He also takes his glittering glass creations to a half dozen of the major trade shows each year. “Blowing glass every day—this shouldn’t really be a 21st century job description,” he laughs. “Everything is exactly the same as it was 500 years ago.” A serious cyclist in off-hours, Vizzusi believes that inspiration is the luxury of dilettantes. “Once you’ve got the stuff melted, you just gotta get to work,” he insists. And the minute the oven is turned off, “we relax like crazy.”

Back to ‘Woodstock’

Darlingside reach back to their heroes for a folk-rock revelation on new EP BY BRIAN PALMER

T

hey say that timing is everything, and for the string-based indie folk quartet Darlingside, this has certainly proved true. The circumstances which led to the creation of their newest release, the Woodstock EP—which finds them collaborating with singer-songwriter and fellow Massachusetts native Heather Maloney—were seemingly serendipitous. “We started around the same time five years ago, but our paths

didn’t cross until a Watermelon Wednesdays show, which is a folk series put on at the West Whately Chapel [in Massachusetts],” says Auyon Mukharji, who plays mandolin and sings in the band. “We ended up sharing a stage, and it felt great and we decided to do a tour together.” They toured in 2012, and again last year. By that time, Darlingside had downsized from a quintet to a quartet, after drummer Sam Kapala left the band, and their sound began to evolve from string rock to

more of an indie folk vibe. “Val [Haller] threw out the possibility of us doing a Joni Mitchell cover,” Mukharji says. “‘Woodstock’ was the one we decided on, since Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young had covered it, and there were some harmonies we could incorporate into it. Joni has been a huge influence on Heather, and Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young has had a big influence on Darlingside, so we ended up putting a video together.” From there, things started rolling.

“Val featured the video on her blog for The New York Times—we got a lot of hits from that—and Heather’s label got excited about the possibility of doing more work together, so they suggested we put together an EP,” says Mukharji. What resulted is an exquisite fivesong EP, which features two new songs each from both Darlingside and Maloney, and a hauntingly beautiful collaboration on “Woodstock.” A more stripped-down affair than Darlingside’s self-titled EP, or their 2012 full-length debut, Pilot Machines, Woodstock possesses a spellbinding simplicity that showcases the band’s talent for fourpart harmonies (the Americanatinged “Whippoorwill” is a sterling example) and stirring melodies (as in the lush folk ballad “You Forget”). Woodstock is the latest evidence that Darlingside has been experiencing a thrilling period of artistic growth since Kapala’s exit. “It ended up being something really wonderful that we’re all enjoying,” Mukharji says. “A lot of the rock and folk aesthetic we pull in is similar, it’s just that doing it without drums allows us to do it around a condenser mic, so everything is very transparent. We can be moving around, jostling for position around this one microphone, which is a really fun way of doing it. It’s stretching us instrumentally.” While Mukharji won’t say whether or not the band plans to remain a quartet permanently, the move is allowing them the freedom to be more creative on the road. “[This setup] creates a lot of room for collaboration,” says Mukharji. “So we’re excited about moving on as a quartet, but we’re equally excited about stretching our sound in different ways, not only with our own instruments, but also by bringing in friends. We’re excited about the idea of collaboration, and how different instruments and personalities can push us out in different ways.” Darlingside will perform at 8:30 p.m. Wednesday, July 2, Moe’s Alley, 1535 Commercial Way, Santa Cruz. Tickets are $7/ advance, $10/door. For more information, call 479-1854.

LOCAL BAND

THE INTANGIBILLIES Sixteen years ago, guitarist Mike Sapunor, mandolin player Mahlon Aldridge and guitarist Brad Manosevitz started playing acoustic jams every Sunday at the local nursing home Pleasant Care, calling themselves the Frequent Flyers. Manosevitz has since moved out of town, but Aldridge and Sapunor continue to play the nursing home (now called Helping Hands) to this day, and the trio has expanded to a core group of six members—a full bluegrass lineup with Reggie Knox on banjo, Scott Cooper on bass, Steve Wiesner on dobro, Dave Bernard on fiddle, and Aldridge and Sapunor still on mandolin and guitar.

JULY 2-8, 2014 | GTWEEKLY.COM | SANTACRUZ.COM

The group became a more serious pursuit five years ago, when they nabbed a regular monthly gig at Bocci’s Cellar. They also started playing weddings and private parties, and began incorporating elements of country, folk and the newgrass sound. They called themselves Wet and Wreckless for a couple of years, but changed the name to the Intangibillies in 2012.

58

“We put our heads together, and had some tequila, and figured out Intangibillies. To us, it’s hillbilly music at its core, but it has an intangible quality to it. It doesn’t really classify neatly,” Sapunor says. They still play Bocci’s on the first Thursday of every month, as their following grows. “We play with a lot of energy and a lot of drive. It gets pretty intense up there from my view of things,” says Sapunor. “People really appreciate the energy and the improvisational nature of the jams. There ends up being a lot of smiles.” AARON CARNES

INFO: 8 p.m., Thursday, July 3, Bocci’s Cellar, 140 Encinal Street, Santa Cruz. Free. 427-1795.

THURSDAY 7/3 LATIN ROCK

LA SANTA CECILIA La Santa Cecilia’s sound is a complex combination of Latin music, rock and jazz, and the Mexican-American band is guaranteed to get you bailando. The winners of this year’s Grammy Award for Best Latin Rock, Urban or Alternative Album for their major label debut, Treinta Días, their music is popping up in everything from Weeds to indie and documentary films, while they themselves have appeared on Entourage. Their latest release, Something New, dropped in March. BRIAN PALMER

INFO: 8:30 p.m. Moe’s Alley, 1535 Commercial Way, Santa Cruz. $12/adv, $15/ door. 479-1854.

INDIE ROCK

THE SHE’S In 2011, San Francisco’s The She’s released the amazing Then It Starts To Feel Like Summer, easily one of the sunniest indie-pop records of the past five years. It’s fun, catchy and full of feel-good vibes, with just a twinge of sadness. It feels like the soundtrack to the final weekend of summer, with all the good times quickly winding down.

The four ladies of The She’s wrote the album while still in high school. But school’s out, and just a couple of months ago, they put out their first postgraduate release, the six-song EP Dreamers. It’s loaded with every bit of the surf-pop melody they had before, but they’ve added a dreamy, psychedelic layer to their songs. AARON CARNES INFO: 9 p.m. The Crepe Place, 1134 Soquel Ave., Santa Cruz. $8. 429-6994.

FRIDAY 7/4 ROCK

THE TUBES The Tubes have had an interesting career since starting more than 40 years ago. They released a Top 20 album (1983’s Outside Inside), scored two hit singles (“White Punks on Dope” and “She’s a Beauty”), and thumbed their noses at the values of the rich and shameless, harpooning everything from a culture of excess to the stereotypical rock ‘n’ roll singer’s on-stage persona, with singer Fee Waybill pretending to be a drunk, drugged out, utterly unintelligible singer (at least he says he was pretending). The 2007 Arizona Music & Entertainment Hall of Fame inductees last released new material

in 2009, a rarities collection called Mondo Birthmark. BP INFO: 6:30 and 8:30 p.m. Beach Boardwalk, 400 Beach Street, Santa Cruz. Free. 603-2294.

BLUES

SHANE DWIGHT Born in East San Jose, guitar-slinging bluesman Shane Dwight is now a fixture on the Nashville scene, where he has a reputation for being a sure and steady artist with many talents. From slow, heartfelt laments to hellhound-on-my-trail, fretboard-shredding numbers, Dwight has a solid handle on American roots and blues styles and sounds. Add to that the fact that he’s a road warrior with thousands of shows under his belt and it’s no wonder that the once-local boy has become a national sensation.

LA SANTA CECILIA

BE OUR GUEST SIR MIX-A-LOT Years ago, I found myself at a weekend lake party where Sir Mix-a-Lot’s song “Baby Got Back” was on repeat—and I’m not exaggerating here—for three days straight. It was terrible and creepy watching people get down to the song over and over again, like some kind of social experiment gone wrong. But, unlike that party, there’s a lot more to Mr. Mix-a-Lot than the “classic” song about big butts. A DIY rapper who put Seattle on the hip-hop map, Mix-a-Lot was already on the rise before his mega-hit. He helped move rap into mainstream culture, and he’s still rocking stages all these years later. Related: If you haven’t seen NBC newsman Brian Williams “rapping” “Baby Got Back,” YouTube it immediately. CAT JOHNSON ing, soul-sparking form of devotion, chanting has led Das around the world to share his music that is inspired by Western artists including Van Morrison and Ray Charles, as well as Indian tradition. For those who aren’t familiar with chanting or what the words mean, don’t worry. As Das points out, “The chanting just hits you and you want to be a part of it …You get lit up. You don't have to know what it means.” CJ INFO: 8 p.m. Rio Theatre, 1205 Soquel Ave., Santa Cruz. $30. 423-8209.

PABLO MOSES Bob Marley and Jimmy Cliff may be the biggest names in ’70s roots reggae, but Pablo Moses is a legend from this same era. His debut album, 1976’s Revolutionary Dream, is a classic. He’s since put out several albums, moving more into dub territory in the ’80s. But he’s always stayed true to his message of equal rights and justice for all mankind, and he is a true Rastafarian. His lyrics tend toward the political, but he often pulls from observations in his everyday life, like on his debut single, “I Man a Grasshopper” inspired by a drunken captain who was renting a room in his mom’s

INFO: 9 p.m. Moe’s Alley, 1535 Commercial Way, Santa Cruz. $15/adv, $20/door. 479-1854.

SUNDAY 7/6 FOLK-POP

S. CAREY The first thing generally mentioned about Sean Carey, who performs under the moniker S. Carey, is that he was backup vocalist and drummer for the band Bon Iver. That band, led by Justin Vernon, is pretty much indie/ hipster royalty, and any association with the project affords one instant credibility. But solo, with a voice that garners comparisons to Sam Beam of Iron & Wine and even the Beach Boys’ Brian Wilson, multi-instrumentalist Carey crafts layered, thoughtful and mellow songs that feel at once dreamy, articulate and progressive. CJ

original percussion beats. Formed in 2011 by alumni from the Humboldt State Calypso Band, Steel Standing’s pan-like percussion instruments seamlessly blend to create the reggae, salsa and funk that is the backbone of their sound. Thanks to a Kickstarter campaign raising more than $4,000, Steel Standing was able to record their first full-length album last year. SYDNEY MOORHEAD

The Grammy Award and Guggenheim Fellowship winner is legendary in the jazz world for his ability to be both traditional and avant-garde in his approach to his songs. His newest release, Be My Monster Love, came out last year, features vocals by Macy Gray, and marks the debut of Murray’s Infinity Quartet. BP

FILM

ALL SHE HAD TO DO WAS AXE Mark Ruffalo and Keira Knightley in ‘Begin Again.’

The Real Thing JULY 2-8, 2014 | GTWEEKLY.COM | SANTACRUZ.COM

In its search for musical authenticity, ’Begin Again’ hits the right notes BY RICHARD VON BUSACK

64

J

ohn Carney’s follow up to his 2006 hit Once played at Toronto 2013 under the fatal title Can a Song Save Your Life?, and has been retitled Begin Again. It is slight and caramel-hearted, but it made me a new fan of items I thought I was over: New York, popular music and Keira Knightley. And unlike Once, Begin Again isn’t in love with hopeless pathos. Nothing here is as fulsome as that streetsinger’s chipped-up guitar in Once— Glen Hansard was so sincere that his guitar was disintegrating. Begin Again starts in a pair of loops, with the two main characters brought together on pretty much the worst nights of their lives. The wooly old A&R man Dan (Mark Ruffalo) is at the end of a day spent drinking away

his career, and being ejected by the record label he co-founded with his partner (the droll, cool Mos Def). Dan has an afternoon date with his contemptuous adolescent daughter Violet. She’s arguably the most clichéd part of the film. Yet Hailee Steinfeld of True Grit (tall, sturdy and 17 now) gives Violet such filial anger that it’s already clear the actress is not going to reprise Kim Darby’s career trajectory. Dropping Violet off, Dan has a quick confrontation with ex-wife (Catherine Keener); then some more whiskey and a stagger into a nightclub. There, Greta (Knightley) has been pressured into taking the stage for one number with her guitar. Dan fuzzes into a drunken fantasy, enacted with the fine

old Busby Berkeley idea of the instruments coming to life on their own and accompanying Greta. Producer and singer have a quick, wary meeting, and Greta decides to take him as her manager. Greta herself is a visiting Londoner dropped fast and from a great height; she was the consort and collaborator of Dave, a world-famous rocker, played by Adam Levine of Maroon 5. She’s sleeping on a couch, she has no ambition, and she’s so out of the world of performing that she doesn’t even seem to think her looks would help sell her music. Dan and Greta work from the ground up; they decide to use a portable studio and New York ambient locations to make their own demo. You’re lucky in 2014 to see a film

with one determined woman in it, and Begin Again has three, counting Keener, Steinfeld and Knightley. As always, Knightley is brittle and posh. Maybe she’s experiencing global warming, though. Carney captures an aspect of appealing crumbliness in Knightley as she hits 30. Stardom in a musical can depend on something as small as whether a person looks good with their mouth open, singing. Knightley does. The too-perfect planes of her face shine in the brightness of a spotlight. Maybe the public that hates musicals hates them because of the gap between what we’re hearing and what we’re supposed to be hearing. But like Jersey Boys, Begin Again doesn’t go inflationary about how wowed we’re supposed to be. During the scrappy recording sessions, shot in well-chosen Brooklyn and Manhattan locations, rooftops and alleys, what we hear is a sound, not the sound. Knightley acquits herself on sometimes in-one-ear-and-outthe-other tunes. Levine also keeps turning up, in increasingly ludicrous facial hair. He has a strong tenor recalling Todd Rundgren, but unlike Rundgren, Levine’s material is almost surgically antiseptic. Again, this is often deliberate. Begin Again, with its rootsseeking new title, is a critique of overproduction. It’s a measure of Dave’s characterlessness that he shellacks his music; he’s so selfserious he titled his album On the Road. Director Carney is enough of a musician to know the difference between audio oatmeal—the kind of music that 95 out of 100 people wouldn’t have any strong opinion about—and something distinctive. Knightley and Begin Again had me at the late-night scene where she drunk dials Dave with a song she’s written titled “Like a Fool.” There is drama in the chords and in the situation, and Knightley sells the tune beautifully. It’s the first time that I thought anything could beat “Everything Is Awesome” at the Oscars next year. BEGIN AGAIN With Keira Knightley, Mark Ruffalo and Catherine Keener. Written and directed by John Carney. Rated R. 104 min. Opens Fri at the Nick.

Edgar Ramirez co-stars; Scott Derrickson directs. (R) 118 minutes. Starts today (Wednesday July 2). EARTH TO ECHO For the generation too young to remember E.T. comes this sci-fi adventure about a trio of best buddies who discover an alien life form in their suburban neighborhood and try to help him.

JULY 2-8, 2014 | GTWEEKLY.COM | SANTACRUZ.COM

SNOWPIERCER Korean filmmaker Bong Joon-ho warned us about climate change in his delicious eco-monster movie mash-up The Host. In this futuristic thriller, he explores the consequences of our negligence: when a botched attempt to halt global warming launches a new ice age, the last human survivors travel around the frozen planet on a high-speed train—where a class struggle ensues. Chris Evans, Jamie Bell, Kang-ho Song, Tilda Swinton, John Hurt, Octavia Spencer, and Ed Harris star. (R) 126 minutes. Starts today (Wednesday, July 2).

TAMMY Melissa McCarthy stars in this road comedy as a mild-mannered store clerk who loses her job and ditches her cheating husband to hit the road with her crusty, harddrinking grandma (Susan Sarandon). Dan Aykroyd and Mark Duplass co-star for actor-turned-director Ben Falcone. (R) 97 minutes. Starts today (Wednesday July 2). SPECIAL EVENT THIS WEEK: A HARD DAY'S NIGHT The Beatles 1964 debut film, made at the height of Beatlemania, is full of the knockabout slapstick and fasterthan-a-speeding-bullet wisecracks that taught a whole generation

how to be cool. The day-in-the-life comedy features Wilfred Brambell (as Paul's puckish grandfather) and Victor Spinetti (as a harassed TV director), a dozen of the songs that would help define the '60s, and John Paul, George, and Ringo (the eldest, at 24) as themselves. Richard Lester directs. (G) 87 minutes. (****)—Lisa Jensen. At the Del Mar, Sunday only (July 6), 11 a.m. Encore: Thursday (July 10), 7:30 p.m. 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. 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 Internet-savvy 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. 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. 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 convent-raised orphan; Agata Kulesza is superb as the wayward aunt who reveals the truth of her Jewish family history. (PG-13) 80 minutes. In Polish with English subtitles. (***1/2)—Lisa Jensen. JERSEY BOYS Director Clint Eastwood makes no attempt to disguise the stage origins of his film adaptation of the hit Broadway musical. Why tamper with success? To his credit, he insisted on casting three of the Four Seasons in his film with alumni from various stage productions (including Tony-winner John Lloyd Young, who originated the role of Frankie Valli on Broadway). These guys can all sing like the dickens, and the movie sounds great. If there proves to be more backstory than the film can handle, still, it’s an entertaining songfest with a breakout performance by Vincent Piazza as ne’er-do-well Tommy DeVito. (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. 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. 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. TRANSFORMERS: AGE OF EXTINCTION The giganto-bot franchise gets a reboot with a new cast of humans to interact with the CGI stars. Mark Wahlberg plays an auto mechanic who finds a forgotten spare part that morphs into a Transformer—and it’s game-on once more for a planet-trashing showdown between Autobots and Decepticons. Stanley Tucci, Li Bingbing , Kelsey Grammer, and Sophia Myles co-star for director Michael Bay. Bring your earplugs. (PG-13) 166 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 Australianborn 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

T

oday, July 2, is the day that the Santa Cruz Whole Foods market will donate 5 percent of its profits to Tabitha Stroup’s Friend in Cheeses Jam Co. The woman who never sleeps was getting ready for a “long day of lavender plum jelly” when she revealed that “the love and support I got from so many people, high school friends—that did even more for me than the money itself.” That said, Stroup, who is experiencing increasing arthritis and carpal tunnel syndrome in her hands, is looking forward to being able to

purchase much-needed mechanical lid-turning equipment with her share of the Whole Foods Local Foodmaker Grant. “Whatever the proceeds turn out to be,” she added, “will help me get closer to that lid machine.” And we will all be closer to an endless stream of creative tomato jams, watermelon jellies, and strawberry tarragon conserves— courtesy of Friend in Cheeses. So shop like you mean it.

CRAZY FOR TOTORO We are not alone in making Sushi Totoro on Mission Street a

weekly pit stop. Maybe it’s being a Californian, but I literally crave sushi. Weekly. And the sushi coming out of Totoro is looking more beautiful than ever. We always go for a hamachi or saba nigiri, intricately topped with a micro-zest of lemon. But I’ve also become a fan of Totoro's gorgeous futomaki rolls, sliced into what look like Byzantine mosaics of orange and yellow pickled daikon, bits of egg, mushroom and avocado, all framed by a thin band of sticky rice and a necklace of nori. The tekka maki with shiso leaf is my

WINE OF THE WEEK Elegant and peppered with intricate spice colors, a blackberry interior haunted by bay leaves, and a long Italian plum finish, Ghostwriter 2012 Pinot Noir Santa Cruz County (around $29 at Shopper’s) is another superb creation by conceptual winemaker Kenny Likitprakong. From his first crush at Hallcrest Vineyards in 2002 to his recent sold-out vintages of Woodruff and Aptos Vineyard grapes, Likitprakong makes wines pretty much the way he wants. And under intriguing label names such as Hobo, Banyan, Folk Machine and Ghostwriter. Don't ask, just taste.

Shopping to support Friend in Cheeses, sushi cravings and Chaminade’s Farm to Table series BY CHRISTINA WATERS

Our top local farms and wineries get to show off at the Chaminade’s utterly romantic and scenic Sunset Terrace on each Farm to Table evening this summer. If you haven’t been up to this serene setting for dinner and drinks lately, you’ve got no more excuses. Rush and make reservations for the July 11 dinner event. Wines from Kathryn Kennedy join seasonal bounty from Coke Farm, Black Hen Farm and Ostrich Growers of Watsonville. Expect a memorable series of dishes created by executive chef Kirsten Ponza—from whom we can always expect gorgeous dishes— paired with an array of wines. Baby heirloom tomato pizzettas and Sriracha deviled eggs with tobiko kick off the July 11 menu, followed by radicchio with roasted beets and kale crisps, and stuffed padron peppers with poached egg. All leading up to a grilled ostrich fillet with strawberry demi, and finished with a dessert of almond panna cotta— the thought of which has my mouth watering—served with strawberry balsamic compote and black pepper crisp. The season continues on Aug. 15, Sept. 12, and Oct. 10. The $80 per person cost includes hors d’oeuvres starting at 6 p.m., family style dinner at 6:30 p.m., and all wines (tax and tip not included). Call 475-5600 or visit the Chaminade website for details and reservations.

hen a good friend who lives in Greece came to stay at my house for a few days—it wasn’t difficult to drum up some fun outings to show her around. One thing that’s always high on my list for visitors is wine tasting, so we headed to the MJA Vineyards tasting room on Santa Cruz’s Westside. Ebullient owner Marin Artukovich was behind the counter pouring varietals from his DaVine Cellars and Serene Cellars, both of which fall under the umbrella of MJA Vineyards. After a glorious tasting of several wines, we decided on a Montepulciano 2011, Suisun Valley (around $24) to share over dinner at West End Tap & Kitchen just around the corner. There is no corkage fee if you buy wine from any of the wineries within the Swift Street complex—Sones Cellars, Santa Cruz Mountain Winery, Vino Tabi Winery—so it makes sense to go wine tasting first and pick out something that appeals. Widely grown in central Italy, the Montepulciano red wine grape is often blended with Sangiovese, but the Monte’s deep purple juice just on its own pairs nicely with meat, pasta and eggplant dishes.

Capitola gets a taste of Cajun and Creole cuisine BY AARON CARNES

J

azz. Mardi Gras. New Orleans is known for a lot of things. High up on that list is the food. It’s about as diverse as it gets—a true melting pot of flavors and cultural influences. Chef Chad Glassley wanted to bring a little taste of the Big Easy to Capitola, and his focus is Cajun and Creole food—with a California twist. We asked him a few questions about his new restaurant Roux Dat, which opened May 26.

GT: What is étouffée?

910 Cedar Street, Santa Cruz C 831. 457.1677 831.457.1677

You offer a lot of different hot sauces. Why is that? We add a little bit of spice to our food, but we don’t want to blow anyone away. We want them to be able to add their own spiciness to it. We have a standard amount of hot sauces that we put on each table—six on each table. There’s Pepper Plant, it’s out of Gilroy. There’s some from New Orleans like Lightning Strike. There’s Cajun Power, Tabasco, Crystal Louisiana hot sauce. Behind the counter there’s probably a half dozen to a dozen more, like Cholula, and some off-the-wall hot sauces that people request to torture themselves with hot spices.

You carry a vegan jambalaya, which defies a lot of people’s idea of jambalaya. How do you make it work? We use a lot of herbs and spices— and we cut our mushrooms a little chunkier so they almost have the taste and the texture of a piece of meat. It looks like a jambalaya. Then we let it cook for quite a bit of time to reduce all those flavors so they’re more concentrated. INFO: 3555 Clares St., Ste TT, Capitola. 259-6372.

Chad Glassley: Étouffée is hard to describe. It comes from a French word étoufer and that means to smother with sauce. The étouffées in New Orleans are usually served over rice. We have a couple here: shrimp and corn is one of the more popular ones, something about the Gulf shrimp that we use and the corn that just goes really well together. One of the others is crawfish and chili cheese étouffée. It’s got crawfish in there with chili spices and seasonings, tomatoes and black beans and a little bit of sharp cheddar. It’s not really traditional— it’s almost like a chili but with a creamier cheese flavor to it. It oddly works really well together.

+ RISA’S STARS BY RISA D’ANGELES FOUR ANGELS FOR THE FOURTH

Saturday is Independence Day, and the 238th birthday of the United States. The U.S. Sun is 12 degrees Cancer, and Sirius, the blue star where love originates, is 13 degrees Cancer. Sirius and the U.S. are aligned. We are in the sign of Cancer now, the sign that receives and distributes ray 3 (which contains new information) and ray 7 (creating new rhythms). The number 238 (2+3+8) equals 13. And 13 (1+3) equals four, the square within the circle, the four directions. The square in astrology means we cannot travel in the same direction. We’re challenged to make a 90-degree turn. This includes a change of elements. Squares are purposeful and anchoring. Round and round the square we go, until we accomplish our essential spiritual task. In the esoteric blue book “Destiny of the Nations,” the purpose and spiritual task of the United States

is to “stand within and lead humanity towards the light.” There are helpers in the square: four angels emanating light, virtue, guidance, direction, protection and a message. At the four corners of the square, the four angels are seen. Orange they are, veiled in rosy light. Within each form the yellow flame is seen and round each form the blue. Four words they utter forth. Each day the words take form. From the North: “Be pure.” From the South: “I dedicate.” From the East, a light divine: “Love all.” From the West: “I serve.” Purity, dedication, love and service sum up the nature and destiny of the United States. The angels are potent occult forces, dynamic in their incentive and creative in their result. We ponder upon these things. These are the qualifications of the White Magician leading the Way.

ARIES Mar21–Apr20

LIBRA Sep23–Oct22

Are there people you must contact, tasks to complete, bills and correspondences calling your attention? Does your car need a tune-up or repairs? Are the technologies you use (computer, cell, etc.) needing upgrades? Whatever must be done, prepare to work slowly, with care and attention, giving yourself and others more time than usual. Have intentions to complete all past work. The Mercury retro shadow lasts two weeks.

There are times we have spiritual experiences leading us to assess our life’s purpose. We refine, redefine, seek new paths, search for new values and structures and wonder if there’s real justice in the world. There is— hidden beneath the surface of accepted reality. Ethics become important. What are your ethics? Remember to radiate goodwill. It creates a new ethic.

Esoteric Astrology as news for week July 2-8, 2014

TAURUS Apr21–May21 Previous financial situations now need your attention. With all monetary interactions, check and recheck for there could be mistakes and changes. It will be important to reevaluate spending. Know you have many valuable items around which could be sold so you have more capital to work with to meet present financial needs. Soon you will create the new environment you’re being asked to build, when all of the past is over.

GEMINI May 22–June 20 You wonder how others see you. It’s important to realize you have leadership abilities. In the next several weeks your thoughts will make you aware of a new self-identity forming. Allow no criticism to undermine your goodness. There may be a challenge (duality) between your real and your judgmental selves. Someone else may activate this. Know that your childhood experiences have given you strength to meet these times.

CANCER Jun21–Jul20

74

Anxieties may be setting up housekeeping in your emotional world. Inform them they are not welcome. Others can assist if you share with them what’s bothering you. Fear and anxiety can become addictive, looping over and over in the lower mind, metaphorically bringing you to your knees. Replace fear with the Soul and Great Invocations. These raise the emotions to the mind where the soul resides. The soul soothes and directs.

LE0 Jul21–Aug22 Reassessing friendships and social interactions, future goals, hopes, wishes and aspirations are your currents of thought in coming weeks. Reevaluation keeps us in touch and aware. Whenever we feel tension and longing, know that a new need and aspiration is calling. When desires are spiritualized they become aspirations, setting us upon a future path. You’re going somewhere!

VIRGO Aug23–Sep22 Your life direction, an important consideration, comes into focus along with who you want to be in the coming years. Sometimes we don’t really know and can’t visualize the future. That’s because it isn’t formed yet. It’s good to ask what you’re striving toward? What life events are most important for you? Do the environments around you reflect your deepest values and ethos?

SCORPIO Oct23–Nov21 Money and resources you hold in common with others will be on your mind. Assess and study, ponder upon and discuss what your needs are for the future. Everything must be done with transparency and equanimity. You are part of creating the new sharing economy. Through this task you will learn how you manage your innate power. Power with, not above, others works best.

SAGITTARIUS Nov22–Dec20 Past relationships may be remembered in the next few weeks. Consider what was gained, what worked, what didn’t and how your beliefs (patterns learned when young) affected outcomes. Something special occurs. Perhaps you understand how love works. It’s not about the other and yet it is. It’s about your intentions for loving and ability to see the life divine in everyone, everything and each event.

CAPRICORN Dec21–Jan20 There is lots of daily work, agendas, interactions with co-workers. Something appears and it’s through cooperation and intentions for right relations that you create a state of harmony surpassing expectations. Home life on a daily basis is changed. A new structure must come forth. Schedules shift constantly. Find the heart of all that matters and invite it in to help you and the family. You’ll be surprised.

AQUARIUS Jan21–Feb18 It’s good to know what helps you be happy, healthy, soothed, comforted and cared for. When we know, we may at first have to sacrifice a previous way of life in order for a new way to come forth. When on the right path, happiness and joy replace discomfort and ill health. In coming months you will see the past and choose the future. Focus upon the best ways for your increased and vital health. This last is most important.

PISCES Feb19–Mar20 The following issues will be on your mind in the next coming weeks: Mother and mothering; relationships with family and children—especially daughters; concern about home—where and how you live and what the future will bring in terms of home, family, and the quality of nurturing you realize is needed. There will be conflicts amidst all the realities. Do your very best. What you want is good. But something greater may be available. Ask for help.

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.”
