ROB BREZSNY FREE WILL ASTROLOGY Week of July 30 ARIES Mar21–Apr19

LIBRA Sep23–Oct22

If a farmer plants the same crop in the same field year after year, the earth’s nutrients get exhausted. For instance, lettuce sucks up a lot of nitrogen. It’s better to plant beans or peas in that location the next season, since they add nitrogen back into the soil. Meanwhile, lettuce will do well in the field where the beans or peas grew last time. This strategy is called crop rotation. I nominate it as your operative metaphor for the next 10 months, Aries. Your creative output will be abundant if you keep sowing each new “crop� in a fertile situation where it is most likely to thrive.

It’s fine if you want to turn the volume all the way up on your charisma and socialize like a party animal. I won’t protest if you gleefully blend business and pleasure as you nurture your web of human connections. But I hope you will also find time to commune with the earth and sky and rivers and winds. Why? You are scheduled to take a big, fun spiritual test in the not-too-distant future. An excellent way to prepare for this rite of passage will be to deepen your relationship with Mother Nature.

TAURUS Apr20–May20

You are hereby excused from doing household chores and busywork, Scorpio. Feel free to cancel boring appointments. Avoid tasks that are not sufficiently epic, majestic, and fantastic to engage your heroic imagination. As I see it, this is your time to think really big. You have cosmic authorization to give your full intensity to exploring the amazing maze where the treasure is hidden. I urge you to pay attention to your dreams for clues. I encourage you to ignore all fears except the one that evokes your most brilliant courage. Abandon all trivial worries, you curious warrior, as you go in quest of your equivalent of the Holy Grail.

Maybe your grandparents are dead, or maybe they’re still alive. Whatever the case may be, do you have a meaningful or interesting connection with them? Is there anything about their souls or destinies that inspires you as you face your own challenges? Or is your link with them based more on sentimentality and nostalgia? In the near future, I urge you to dig deeper in search of the power they might have to offer you. Proceed on the hypothesis that you have not yet deciphered some of the useful messages you can derive from how they lived their lives. Explore the possibility that their mysteries are relevant to yours.

SCORPIO Oct23–Nov21

SAGITTARIUS Nov22–Dec21

The prolific American author James Fenimore Cooper (1789-1851) wrote 32 novels. In those pages, he crammed in almost 1,100 quotations from Shakespeare. What motivated such extreme homage? I suspect he regarded Shakespeare as a mentor, and wanted to blend the Bard’s intelligence with his own. I invite you to do something similar, Gemini. What heroes have moved you the most? What teachers have stirred you the deepest? It’s a perfect time to pay tribute in a way that feels self-empowering. I suspect you will benefit from revivifying their influence on you.

Broadway is one of New York City’s main streets. It runs the length of the island of Manhattan. But hundreds of years ago it was known by the indigenous Lenape people as the Wickquasgeck Trail. It was a passageway that cut through stands of chestnut, poplar, and pine trees. Strawberries grew wild in fields along the route. Is there a metaphorical equivalent in your own life, Sagittarius? I think there is: a modest, natural path that you will ultimately build into a major thoroughfare buzzing with activity. Part of you will feel sad at the loss of innocence that results. But mostly you’ll be proud of the visionary strength you will have summoned to create such an important conduit.

CANCER Jun21–Jul22

CAPRICORN Dec22–Jan19

Was there an actual poet named Homer who wrote the ancient Greek epics the Iliad and the Odyssey? Or was "Homer" a fictitious name given to several authors who created those two masterworks? Whatever the case may be, we know that Homer plagiarized himself. The opening line of Book XI in the Iliad is identical to the opening line of Book V in the Odyssey: “Now Dawn arose from her couch beside the lordly Tithonos, to bear light to the immortals and to mortal men.� So should we be critical of Homer? Nah. Nor will I hold it against you if, in the coming days, you imitate some fine action or brilliant move you did in the past. It was great the first time. I’m sure it will be nearly as great this time, but in a different way.

The heavenly body known as 1986 DA is a near-Earth asteroid that’s 1.4 miles in diameter. It’s packed with 10,000 tons of gold and 100,000 tons of platinum, meaning it’s worth over $5 trillion. Can we humans get to it and mine its riches? Not yet. That project is beyond our current technology. But one day, I’m sure we will find a way. I’m thinking there’s a smaller-scale version of this scenario in your life, Capricorn. You know about or will soon find out about a source of wealth that’s beyond your grasp. But I’m betting that in the next 10 months you will figure out a way to tap into it, and begin the process.

LE0 Jul23–Aug22

“I just sort of drifted into it.� According to author Gore Vidal, “That’s almost always the explanation for everything.� But I hope this won’t be true for you anytime soon, Aquarius. You can’t afford to be unconscious or lazy or careless about what you’re getting yourself into. You must formulate a clear, strong intention, and stick to it. I don’t mean that you should be overly cautious or ultra-skeptical. To make the correct decisions, all you have to do is be wide awake and stay in intimate touch with what’s best for you.

GEMINI May21–June20

The Earth has been around for almost 4.6 billion years. But according to scientists who study the fossil records, fire didn’t make its first appearance on our planet until 470 million years ago. Only then were there enough land-based plants and oxygen to allow the possibility of fires arising naturally. Do the math and you will see that for 90 percent of the Earth’s history, fire was absent. In evolutionary terms, it’s a newcomer. As I study your astrological omens for the next 10 months, I foresee the arrival of an almost equally monumental addition to your life, Leo. You can’t imagine what it is yet, but by this time next year, you won’t fathom how you could have lived without it for so long.

VIRGO Aug23–Sep22 In the nights to come, I expect you will dream of creatures like fiery monsters, robot warriors, extraterrestrial ghosts, and zombie vampires. But here’s the weird twist: They will be your helpers and friends. They will protect you and fight on your behalf as you defeat your real enemies, who are smiling pretenders wearing white hats. Dreams like this will prepare you well for events in your waking life, where you will get the chance to gain an advantage over fake nice guys who have hurt you or thwarted you.

AQUARIUS Jan20–Feb18

PISCES Feb19–Mar20 Members of the industrial band Skinny Puppy are upset with the U.S. military. They discovered that an interrogation team at America’s Guantanamo Bay detention camp tortured prisoners by playing their music at deafening volumes for extended periods. That’s why they sent an invoice to the Defense Department for $666,000, and are threatening to sue. Now would be a good time for you to take comparable action, Pisces. Are others distorting your creations or misrepresenting your meaning? Could your reputation benefit from repair? Is there anything you can do to correct people’s misunderstandings about who you are and what you stand for?

ONLINE COMMENTS RE: COWELL BEACH The Public Works Department appreciates your concern regarding Santa Cruz beach water quality. First of all, we’d like to point out that

there is no sewage pipe that drains into Cowell Beach. The contamination there is difficult to pinpoint, and we are working to solve the problem. The outfall pipe from the Santa Cruz Wastewater Treatment Facility carries treated wastewater and does not run under Cowell Beach, but rather it crosses under the Westside near Almar Beach. The ocean outfall point for this treated effluent is one mile off shore of Natural Bridges State Park, and over 100 feet below the surface of the ocean. — JANICE BISGAARD | COMMUNITY RELATIONS SPECIALIST, CITY OF SANTA CRUZ PUBLIC WORKS DEPARTMENT

WELLNESS

BOOT CAMP Dr. Michelle Bean and Dr. LeTa Jussila are practitioners and fitness trainers

who know that it’s not easy to break old habits for healthier ones.

Move It and Lose It

T

hirty minutes of exercise a day can be one of the hardest activities to incorporate into an already busy routine—even when we know that a daily sweat is the only thing standing between us and our healthiest, happiest selves. But if anybody knows how to reignite the passion for bodily movement within the less-than-active, it's fitness training duo Dr. Michelle Bean and Dr. LeTa Jussila. "People that rock climb, people that paddleboard, people that surf, you don't have to remind them to do it," says Jusilla. "Because they understand, they've caught

the fever. If you haven't caught that second wind—which is like inspiration of life, right?—you can still find it. It's never too late." In addition to their outdoor "boot camp" classes, Bean, a chiropractor, and Jussila, a licensed acupuncturist, designed the Santa Cruz Challenge. The 12-week health and fitness program incorporates 30 different local fitness studios and educational seminars, with the aim of helping locals … well, basically reset their lives. So far, 500 participants have sweated, danced and stretched their way through the SCC, now in its fourth year, and the fifth round begins Aug. 30.

In order to kick start the drive to work out, Bean and Jussila encourage thinking outside the box; getting fit doesn't have to mean going to the gym. Santa Cruz has no end of inspiring fitness resources, starting with the great outdoors. "There's something magical about this land," says Jussila. "There's something really amazing about the energy here. And if you don't get yourself right in front of the water, down where the water laps the sand, and you don't immerse yourselves in the negative ions, then you won't catch the fever." Aside from the outdoors, Bean and Jussila emphasize a plethora

The duo behind the Santa Cruz Challenge explain their philosophy of fitness MARIA GRUSAUSKAS

of studios in Santa Cruz, and their challenge connects locals with every kind of activity, from martial arts to pickleball. Venturing outside one’s comfort zone can be motivating, says Bean. "I'd say, you've got to try maybe three to six different things. Try one of those things that you've always wanted to try, and try something you thought you'd probably never try," she says. "When people find that thing that they really like, it becomes a lot easier to actually do it. I think that people fall off of exercise programs because they're doing something that they don’t really enjoy." Like the woman who thought she'd hate jiu jitsu, but now continues with classes even after the challenge has ended. Or Anita Raffaelli, 49, the grand prize winner of the last Santa Cruz Challenge. A mother of four teenagers who had recently moved to town, Raffaeli decided to make some time for herself for the first time in years, and signed up the day before the challenge began. "I went from dreading working outs and making any excuse not to go to a class at the gym to wondering if I could squeeze in a kickboxing, body pump, kung fu, qigong or Pilates class after boot camp before my other daily obligations," says Raffaelli. "I am not only stronger, healthier and more confident than before but I wake up looking for new ways to explore this wonderful place we live." Jussila recommends taking an honest assessment of yourself to find out where you are and where you want to be. Even adding a home stretching routine for five minutes a day can change your life, she says. And if you're the kind of person who needs a goal, she recommends signing up for a race. "We have all these events in Santa Cruz County and beyond," says Jussila. "Really, it's just like, pick one and set a date. I think races are huge now because people really want to feel like they've accomplished something."

THIS SUCKS County health officials warn about the threat of West Nile virus

JULY 30-AUGUST 5, 2014 | GTWEEKLY.COM | SANTACRUZ.COM

BY JACOB PIERCE

“Mosquitoes are more than just a nuisance,” says county vector control manager Paul Binding. “They’re the most dangerous animal on the planet.” As proof, he gestures to an infographic on his office wall from Mosquito Awareness Week last April. Each year on average, 10 people worldwide die from shark attacks, and 10 are killed by wolves, Binding notes. And 425,000 people are killed by other people, making humans the planet’s second most dangerous animal. “Mosquitoes kill 725,000,” Binding says. “A lot of those are children killed by malaria in Africa.” Thankfully, Santa Cruz mosquitoes don’t pose quite that same level of deadly threat—most of the deaths worldwide each year are from primarily African diseases like malaria. But Binding says that with global warming, the threat of mosquitoes in years to come could change dramatically in Santa Cruz. Now that mosquito season is in full swing, and the first bird of the season was found carrying the potentially lethal West Nile virus this month on Soquel’s upper Rodeo Gulch Road, county health officials are stepping up their educational efforts. Most people who contract West Nile virus develop no symptoms whatsoever. About 20 percent come down with a fever, combined with muscle pain, vomiting and a rash. One percent of those infected— often the elderly—come down with a more serious neurological disease, like encephalitis, which causes inflammation of the brain, or meningitis, which causes inflammation of the protective membranes that cover the brain and spinal cord. “The problem with West Nile virus is we’re not out to scare people, but we can’t predict who’s going to get the serious virus,” says Laurie Lang, senior health educator for the county.

CHASING THE FINISH LINE First-time city council candidate Cynthia Chase has assembled an impressive early list of endorsements from longtime politcos, county sheriffs, and local activists. PHOTO: CHIP SCHEUER

Off and Running Four more candidates enter the 2014 Santa Cruz City Council race BY ARIC SLEEPER

L

ike the city of Santa Cruz itself, the many candidates running in the city council race are unique and elude definition. For one, Cynthia Chase, a social worker, former probation officer and recent addition to the candidate roster, wants to make it clear she won’t fall squarely into any one category. “People are trying to put me in a box. They want me to either be the social services candidate, or they want me to be the law enforcement candidate, and I’ve been spending my entire career trying to not be in a box,” says Chase. “Trying to box me in one place or another is a disservice, and not really a good descriptor of who I am, and what I bring to this.” Since GT last checked in on the Santa Cruz City Council race for the

November election, councilmember Hilary Bryant announced that she would not seek another term, and Santa Cruz County Planner Tim Goncharoff dropped out. Now, four new contenders have approached the starting line: former Mayor Bruce Van Allen, detective Michael Pruger, City Councilmember David Terrazas, and Chase, who has received a wide range of bipartisan support since she pulled election papers in early July. Some of Chase’s early endorsements include seven former Santa Cruz mayors, four county supervisors, Sheriff Phil Wowak, Watsonville Mayor Karina Cervantes, County Treasurer Fred Keeley, and activist Rick Longinotti. Chase worked for seven years as a Santa Cruz County probation officer

and received a graduate degree in social work from San Jose State University before becoming program director at Gemma, a nonprofit program based in Watsonville that helps people transition back into society from incarceration. Chase has also taught social work courses at San Jose State and CSU Monterey Bay. Chase, also a UCSC grad, says her experiences have taught her to study every facet of an issue before coming to a decision. This unbiased method of problem solving is one she hopes to bring to the city council if elected in November. “Being able to work with both the victims and the perpetrators of the same crime really taught me to look at this broad context and know that the answers weren’t simple. They aren’t black and white,” says Chase. >16

“It really takes a balanced approach to make sure we’re not missing one side or the other.” If elected, Chase will be motivated to create more jobs and affordable housing opportunities for recent UCSC grads. Chase herself was once a benefactor of the Measure O housing initiative, which allowed her to remain in Santa Cruz when she had just finished college. “That was huge for me as a twenty-something,” says Chase, “and programs like that are the things we need to focus on to help a broad spectrum of our community be able to be homeowners here, to be able to live here, and really invest in the community the way that they want to, and not have to struggle paycheck to paycheck to support themselves or their families.” Another recently announced candidate who believes strongly in prioritizing subsidized housing is former mayor Van Allen, who has endorsed Chase. Since his last stint in public office in the early 1980s, Van Allen has remained active in

local politics, and makes a living as a freelance software developer. In his role as a programmer, Van Allen created one of the first online interlibrary loan systems, once employed in schools, universities, and libraries around the Monterey Bay. But he’s probably best known in the community as a campaign consultant, where he utilizes software he designed to identify voting trends in political campaigns both large and small. Van Allen was inspired to run for city council in part by the encouragement of community members, and also because he feels the current council has lost touch with certain aspects of the city. “The council has done some good work in economic development, although I have some concerns about it, but they have neglected things that are important to the people of Santa Cruz like maintaining a social safety net locally, protecting the environment, and taking the environment into account when they make decisions about economic development,” Van Allen says. Van Allen wants to steer the council

away from projects like desalination, which he believes would have negative long-term effects on the community and the environment. Van Allen would also like to see the city employ more technology in their decision making and problem solving. Van Allen speaks strongly on the issues that he cares about, like social services and restoring the San Lorenzo River. The latest candidate to pull papers for the election is Michael Pruger, a detective at the Santa Cruz County Sheriff-Coroner’s office. Pruger served as a Santa Cruz police officer for almost 20 years, and made the rank of sergeant before transferring to the coroner’s unit at the Sheriff’s Office. Through his former roles with the Police Officers’ Association and current station as president of the Santa Cruz County Deputy Sheriff's Association, Pruger cultivated an interest in local politics, which inspired him to run for city council. “Public service is all I know,” says Pruger, “and this is just another way of me to give back.”

NEWS BRIEFS HOKEY POKEY What started out as long discussion over housing the homeless suddenly turned into a bloody mess, thanks to the Internet. Helbard Alkhassadeh, a photographer and the man behind the site StabSantaCruz.com, penned a post this month about possible sanctuary camps called “Santa Cruz Is About to Make a Horrible Mistake.” The word “about” is a relative term, of course, as no plans for hypothetical camps have appeared anywhere on the agenda for the County Board of Supervisors or the City Council.

In a post without any citations, Alkhassadeh, whose site tracks how many stabbings happen in the county each year, worried the camp would draw more homeless to Santa Cruz. He believes the camp—which he doesn’t think should be studied by city staff—would worry real estate agents about its impact on housing prices, and that a population of mentally ill could decrease public safety around such a camp. He asked people to write city councilmembers in opposition. He says his post got half a million hits. In a long response, Vice Mayor Don Lane, a supporter

of the homeless, noted among other things that there isn’t any data to support a correlation between mental illness and crime. Organizer Stacey Falls, in a lengthy response of her own, also responded to Alkhassadeh’s points and cited data from Seattle that tent cities there haven’t impacted public safety. “Honestly, there is so much that is just plain wrong, that it feels daunting to try to address it all,” Falls wrote. But Alkhassadeh, who recently moved out of the County but still works in Santa Cruz, hasn’t backed down, and is asking the City Council for a response.

“I am asking, with all due respect,” he wrote in a follow-up letter to the Mayor Lynn Robinson, “to have you and your colleagues send me decisions that have been made since you took office that have improved our city’s image and created an environment undesirable to crime.” But Alkhassadeh, himself, isn’t interested in taking a stab at policy suggestions, though, anytime soon. “Everyone’s asking me, ‘What would you do with it? And how would fix it?’” he tells GT. “That’s not my job, man. That’s the City Council’s job.” JACOB PIERCE

As I researched, I soon became aware of the little resources available to the public. I began vigorously collecting data from books and interviewing practioners, chemists, herbalists and nutritionists. Anyone who had reliable information became my resource. Thirty years later-now the owner of Vitamin Center-I’m still learning and sharing the past thirty years of knowledge

and research. I have collected a large set of resources that is constantly expanding and evolving. I have made all of this information, originally collected for myself and my family available to my customers and my community without charge. I feel it is my job to help others make informed decisions. Sometimes that includes selling vitamins and sometimes it means simply watching a smiling customer walk out with information that may help their health. And that’s fine with me. It’s all just learning and that’s really what I’m about. Ask Jack!

BLOOD THIRSTY Mosquito eggs laid in stagnant pools of water can hatch in one to three days, depending on the temperature.

THIS SUCKS <14 The only way to conclusively diagnose the virus is with a spinal tap, and although there’s an approved vaccine for horses, there’s not one available for humans. For that reason, the best way for people protect themselves is the most obvious: avoid mosquitoes. Health officials recommend using bug repellant, wearing long sleeves, staying inside around sunset, and

dumping standing water that could be incubating mosquito eggs. There have been no human-reported cases of West Nile on record yet in the county, although the virus accounted for 14 deaths in California last year. Birds first started testing for serious levels of West Nile in Santa Cruz County in 2010. It’s the vector control department’s task to keep such problems in check. In his office on Capitola Road, Binding stands in front of a wall-

side chart of the vector control department’s missions and goals in educating the public and reducing mosquito habitat. Some are places people don’t think about, such as inside car tires. Binding explains that rubber tires often become the breeding ground mosquitoes love. “They’re perfectly suited to catching rainwater and keeping it from evaporating, so they’ll breed mosquitoes from winter rains through the summer,” he says. “Leaf matter

blows in there, and it gets very stagnant. They’ll breed mosquitoes all summer, and it’s very difficult to drain water out of tires if you’ve ever tried to do that.” The drought has posed some problems this year, the first being that the arid winter and spring dried up many of the sloughs home to certain fish and other predators that chow down on the bugs. Another is that when people start conserving water, they often leave open buckets around their yard for days on end, providing a place for mosquitoes to hang out, breed, and lay eggs. “You’ve got to be careful you don’t keep it in containers that are unscreened,” Binding says. “I save my shower water, but I don’t leave it outside for more than a couple of days because in a week, it’s going to be breeding mosquitoes. So, I apply it immediately to the yard.” The department also deploys mosquito-eating bacteria in bodies of water with disease-carrying mosquitoes. Santa Cruz County Mosquito and Vector Control District doesn’t only focus on West Nile, though, or even just mosquitos, for that matter. Binding and his fellow workers work to control problems posed by other disease-spreading animals like ticks and rodents. Binding is also turning his attention to other looming threats, like the Asian Tiger mosquito, which has been found in Southern California and also the Aedes aegypti mosquito, which has been found in neighboring San Mateo County. A native to Asia, the Aedes aegypti has white markings on its legs and thorax, and can carry malaria. It bites throughout the day, so if it ends up in Santa Cruz, it could find someone in the middle of the afternoon as they try to enjoy a chai tea on Pacific Avenue. “That’s a game changer, because it not only bites during the daytime, it prefers humans, and it can breed in a Dixie cup full of water and also the saucers in plants,” Binding says. “The eggs resist drying and they can lay their eggs in the bottom of a plant saucer, and then it dries, and the next time it’s watered, you have a mosquito that’s very efficient at transmitting disease.”

OFF AND RUNNING <16 If elected, Pruger would like to find a middle ground to address the issues he feels strongly about, like public safety and the continued economic revitalization of downtown and the Soquel Avenue corridor. On his time away from work, Pruger has started opening up dialogues with community members, but he’s new to the campaigning game. “The initial process of being a candidate is the toughest thing so far,� says Pruger. One candidate who needs no training in the art of campaigning is incumbent David Terrazas. Terrazas says that the challenges the council has overcome during his term inspired him to run again. The councilmember highlights his work with the Neighborhood Grant Program, which led to projects like the mosaic on the Barson Street stairs, and his effort to initialize a Parks Master Plan, which will come out later this year—the first update in thirty years. “I look forward to serving again to make sure that we continue this work in a more comprehensive way, and see these results come to fruition,� says Terrazas. Although the race has brought some fresh contenders with distinct approaches, it hasn’t brought many concrete solutions yet. Perhaps it’s early, and the new candidates are still warming up to their roles. Former candidates Steve Pleich, a homeless advocate, and UCSC community relations employee Richelle Noroyan announced their candidacy earlier this year, as did first-time candidate Leonie Sherman, a self-defense instructor and journalist. Sherman looks forward to meeting and hearing from the crew of other candidates at upcoming forums and events. “I think there are some really qualified, wonderful people that are also willing to take on this exciting, scary challenge,� says Sherman. “I think there’s a great chance there will be three awesome people elected in November.�

supposed to be eradicated in the last century. The county saw 54 cases of pertussis (also known as whooping cough) last year, the highest number of cases since 2010, when there were 87. So far this year, there have been 12 cases and one death from the highly contagious respiratory disease caused by the bacterium Bordetella pertussis. Measles has also reared its ugly head, with three cases reported last year—a seemingly low number, but after an outbreak of measles in the county in 1990, cause for some concern. So how are these diseases of old seeping into our present-day lives? This time, it may be North County that’s falling short: one contributing factor that is very unique to Santa Cruz, says Hernandez, is a high number of parents opting out of vaccinating their children. “Vaccines are one of public health’s successes, we’re able to get rid of diseases that killed people in certain instances,” says Hernandez. But 9.54 percent of parents are waiving their children's immunizations—a rate much higher than the state average of 3.15 percent and surrounding counties, like Monterey at 1.6 percent and Santa Clara at 1.7 percent. “One of the things that we know, especially for parents of younger kids, is that they feel like there’s too many vaccines given at one time, and they don’t want to give all those vaccines in the schedule that the CDC recom-

Proper medical care—especially preventive, is another crucial determinant in the health of a community. With the help of vaccinations and education, diseases like diphtheria that once ravaged the county (in 1876 and 1878, causing many deaths, especially among children) have been controlled. Which is why Santa Cruz Health Officer Lisa Hernandez’s biggest worries for infectious disease in the county come as a surprise: syphilis. Over the past four years, the number of syphilis cases has increased, with 32 cases reported in 2013, and eight already in the first quarter of 2014. Luckily, if syphilis is caught early enough it can be treated and cured before the disease’s severe complications—meningitis and paralysis—set in. Hernandez also worries about other preventable diseases that were

mends," says Hernandez. "The other thing is these are diseases that are thought to be of olden times, so they don’t think that it’s going to affect the health of their child, and don’t realize the serious complications that some of these diseases have.” She believes that opting out of vaccinations could have also contributed to the nine cases of influenza in 2013—severe enough to cause death or ICU care—and five more in the first quarter of 2014. It was only four years ago that Andrew Wakefield’s widely published study linking vaccinations to autism and bowel disease was discredited as a hoax with a profit motive. Hernandez is hopeful that targeted community outreach and a new law that requires parents to consult a health professional before opting out of vaccinating their children will help bring the “personal belief exemption” rate down in the county.

BULGE BATTLE It’s no secret that obesity, responsible for skyrocketing rates of diabetes, cancer and heart disease, is the most troublesome health epidemic facing our nation today. And as active as the average Santa Cruz resident is, the county is far from exempt: one in five adults is considered to be obese, reports County Rankings. While this 20 percent rate (which matches the state’s) may be relatively low compared to the national average of 28 percent, an additional 31 percent of us are considered overweight. But County Rankings failed to report on child obesity rates—which is really what we should be worried about: 37 percent of county children are considered to be obese, says Hernandez. “That’s an area of concern, because we know that 70 to 80 percent of children that are obese grow up to be obese as adults,” says Hernandez. “So, not only is it a tragedy that our children are obese, and it’s impacting

their health, but if we look at how it’s going to impact the future health of the community, three quarters of them are going to be obese.” And it gets worse: “When you go to the Pajaro Valley you see that our Latino [obesity] rate is around 50 percent, and that’s due to a lot of different factors,” says Joseph. It’s counterintuitive that our county would be prone to obesity, when the salad bowl of the world is Salinas Valley, says Hernandez. Again, wealth disparity may play a role. “I think one reason that rate is so high in Santa Cruz County, again you can trace to a higher prevalence in low-income communities,” says State Sen. Bill Monning. “We have a high number of the population in Santa Cruz who are an immigrant workforce and who are targeted because they don’t have the education or the money to stretch limited dollars to buy more healthful foods.” “It’s expensive,” says Hernandez. “When you go to the grocery store and you look at the price of fruit and vegetables, it’s a lot more expensive than getting some of the low-cost prepared options.” But a weekly supply of fresh fruit and vegetables is not totally out of reach: the Santa Cruz County Farmers Markets accept Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) cards at all five of its markets. Nesh Dillon, executive director of SCCFM, reports that they saw about $90,000 in EBT sales last year. “And that’s a direct infusion of money right into farmers’ hands,” says Dillon, who praises the program for being efficient and seamless. For the past three years, the Live Oak and Felton markets have also offered an incentive program called Market Match, where individuals who swipe their EBT cards for more than $10 get an additional $5 in buying chips—a program that could see a significant increase in funding next year. “It’s had a really powerful effect, because it’s brought a lot of people into the market that maybe

at farmers markets or local produce stands—up from 39 percent just two years prior. It’s not just the adults who are contributing to these encouraging trends: United Way’s Latino youth group, Jóvenes SANOS—a group of teens mostly from Watsonville High School—has been hard at work passing policy in Watsonville around healthy eating. In 2010, they passed the Healthy Restaurant Ordinance, which requires restaurants to offer healthy menu options. In 2013, they passed a Healthy Vending Ordinance which requires all of our bus stations to provide healthy options, and most recently, they completed the Healthy Corner Markets project, which transformed two corner markets in downtown Watsonville to carry healthy options.

OUR DRINKING PROBLEM Another unhealthy habit that’s on the rise in Santa Cruz is excessive drinking, with an estimated 21 percent of residents partaking in heavy or binge drinking—up from 14 percent in 2010. Though alcohol is the number one drug of choice, Bill Monov, director of the Santa Cruz County Alcohol and Drug Program, says the problem extends well beyond it. In 2012, the number of Santa Cruz County residents over the age of 12 with a diagnosable substance abuse disorder was 21,000, according to the State Department of Health Care Services—roughly 7 percent of the population. And 3,200, or 15 percent, of those people were estimated to be seeking treatment, says Manov. Compare that to the number of people the county was able to serve that year: 1,288. “There’s a huge gap between the number of people who need treatment and the number of folks who are able to get treatment. That’s probably been one of the most striking findings,” says Monov, who says the SCCADP is now finalizing the findings

wouldn’t typically use their EBT card there because they’re at that income bracket where every dollar counts,” says Dillon. “So it’s driving a lot of the dollars toward the market and away from more unhealthy options.” Although Monning’s recent soda warning label bill, which proposed adding the warning “State of California Safety Warning: Drinking beverages with added sugar(s) contributes to obesity, diabetes and tooth decay” to all beverage containers with added sweeteners, did not pass—“a disappointment but not a surprise”—he remains adamant that sugar is a major factor driving child obesity rates. “The reason we focus on the sugar-sweetened beverages is because it is a unique driver in converting the sugar to fat,” says Monning. “The pancreas, the liver—when it comes in liquid form, the infusion is so fast, the body goes into defense mode, and it converts that sugar to fat as a way of protecting the organs. The liver can’t process that sugar, so it converts it to fat, and then the fat becomes a leading contributor to diabetes.” Kids who drink two cans a day of soda increase their risk of becoming pre-diabetic or diabetic by 50 percent, Monning adds. Another important component for battling obesity, according to research by the CDC and RWH Foundation, is making sure that the environment of the community is healthy and safe. United Way’s almost 10-yearold program Go For Health is taking a multifaceted approach that’s brought 150 different organizations together to address childhood obesity—everything from ensuring that babies are breastfed (data shows that they are less likely to be obese later in life, says Joseph) to ensuring safe routes to school, access to bike and pedestrian lanes, and safe parks. And the results are showing: in 2013, 33 percent of Pajaro Valley children were walking to school—which is well above the rest of the county, and 51 percent of people in the Pajaro Valley reported shopping

<33 of a year-long data gathering phase in order to put together the county’s Substance Abuse Strategic Plan. “It’s a little hard to track trends to the county level, but if you look statewide and nationwide, the pattern of usage is shifting, and we’re seeing more prescription opiates and heroin and a slight drop in methamphetamine,” says Monov, who says the county is also seeing similar patterns. Untreated substance abuse drives costs up in every public sector, says Manov. County Rankings reports that 31 percent of fatal driving accidents in 2013 were due to alcohol impairment. Currently, the county spends more than $200 million annually on substance abuse impacts in the county, while only $7 million on treatment and prevention. But Monov insists that money spent on treatment and intervention of substance abuse is well worth the investment. “There are many research studies on the return on investment for substance abuse disorders treatment, and depending on the study and population and type of treatment provided, they typically show anywhere from $4 to $7 return on investment for every $1 spent on treatment,” says Manov, noting that most of the cost savings are in health care and the criminal justice sectors. “We’re going to be spending money on substance use, that’s inevitable, but we need to look at what’s the smartest way to spend our money to protect our quality of life,” he says. A draft of the Strategic Plan will be available to the public in September, says Monov.

LONG VIEW Based on the County Ranking’s measure of premature death—people dying before the age of 75—Santa Cruz lives 451 years longer, altogether, than the average California community, and our death rate (614.7 deaths per 100,000 people for 2012) is relatively low.

"Our death rate is generally much lower than the national rate, and among the lowest in the nation, but not too different from the statewide rate,” says Will Forest, epidemiologist and chief deputy registrar at the Santa Cruz County Office of Vital Records. “For many years, our death rate was significantly lower than the statewide rate, but while our death rates have been dropping steadily, the statewide rate has been dropping faster.” He says it’s unclear why that is happening. Still, the average age at death was 74.89 in 2013, which doesn’t exactly make Santa Cruz County a “Blue Zone” as much as we’d like it to be. “Although Santa Cruz County has very low death rates, the major factors that determine our longevity are not particularly different from those in any other American county," says Forest. "We have very low smoking rates; that's hugely important. We have very high physical activity rates and low obesity rates; that's huge, too." But Goeke reminds us that the death rate and average lifespan of today’s Santa Cruz resident are largely dependent on health behaviors of the past—which is why focusing on the present is so important for improving the quality and length of life in our future. And despite the challenges facing Santa Cruz County, Goeke sees reason for optimism. "As I look to the future, I want to see even more of our kids graduating high school and going on to college. I want to see even more of our adults having a higher wage. I want to see more opportunities for healthy eating and active living. I want people to feel like they're safe in their home and safe in their community,” she says. “Which means we have to address the perception of gang violence, youth violence, bullying, drug-related crimes. All of these things we've got to work on, on all fronts and at one time, but I feel like we have a lot of very talented people working on it."

PICTURE OF HEALTH “Before that, they had to build houses differently,” says Strom. Most importantly, the end of the essential porch, which used to serve not only as an outdoor extension for families to cool off on, but also as a social meeting place for the entire neighborhood. In the evenings, while kids played in the streets, “people would go on walks around the neighborhood and greet each other on their porches,” says Strom. The social cool-off was furthered along by the mass production of television. “So people were inside because of their air conditioning,” he says. “But they aren’t talking to each other, because they’re watching TV.” Strom insists he isn’t a Luddite, though. He uses a laptop everyday, and wants a self-driving car someday. “I'm not against technology,” says Strom. “I'm against misusing it, and dehumanizing ourselves in the process. My GPS helps guide me through the city, it does not guide me through my relationships. We have to be clear about what technology can and cannot do for us." So what’s Strom’s solution? For the past nine years, Strom has travelled through 10 countries and 45 cities each year to present workshops on “Inner Axis,” a method for living a happier, more human life that is part philosophy and part breath initiated movement. Before anyone can actually be happy, says Strom, they need to define what happiness is for them. “And tell your family about it, because they need to know,” he says. It also depends on redefining our time on earth and how we spend it. “Nobody on their deathbed looks back and says if only I watched more reality TV,” says Strom. He believes we should buy more time in our lives by trading mindless TV and social media time for the sort of activities that awaken us. Max Strom will lead a workshop on Inner Axis from 7-9 p.m. on Thursday, July 31, at Luma Yoga, 101 Center St., Santa Cruz. $55. 325.2620.

it’s one out of five,” says Strom, who wants to be clear that he’s not against these medications for people who really need them. But the quick-fix prescription has become so ubiquitous that it’s now acceptable (and easy) to bypass a psychiatrist altogether and fill the void with pills rather than talk about how we feel, he says. “Eighty million Americans are taking sleep medications every day,” says Strom, who adds that in 2012, sleep deprivation was at an epidemic level in the United States. “If we're so happy and connected, why is everyone medicating themselves?” If Strom has anything to say about it, liking a few photos on Facebook or texting a friend from the couch is not a socially adequate way to spend an evening, emoticons or not. And even a phone conversation may not quench the innate thirst we humans have to really connect. “We need to be in the presence of human beings,” says Strom. “We’re wired that way. When we're in a community we like, the body releases oxytocin, and we feel bonded with people.” He has equal qualms about the person who doesn’t look up and make eye contact with the flight attendant when she asks what they’d like to drink, because they’re too busy scrolling through whatever on their phone. “If we’re so connected, why are we becoming less kind?” asks Strom. Ninety percent of human communication is nonverbal, says Strom. But eye contact, one of the most basic forms of human intimacy, is becoming a rarity, as are the facial expressions so key to human conversation. Raised eyebrows, smiles, grimaces, gaping mouths of surprise—they’re all being left out of the equation when we text or email. But the unraveling of society’s social fabric started even before the Internet, says Strom, who thinks the first thread may have been pulled in the early ’50s, with the advent of air conditioning.

he was getting so many laughs telling his stories on stage that not only did he think he could do stand-up comedy, he figured he already was. Mark Flanagan, owner of the L.A. club Largo, set him straight: what he was doing was definitely not stand-up. Fine, thought Sib. So one night

at Largo, he got up and did a 15-20 minute comedy set. “There you go,” Flanagan told him afterward. “That’s stand-up. It’s not good, but it’s stand-up.” That was only a couple of years ago, but Sib has seen his comedy chops evolve immensely; it’s obvious >46

his earliest comedy clips on YouTube, and his recent ones. In that time, Sib—who will combine his newest passion with his Santa Cruz roots on Saturday, Aug. 2, when he performs a free show at the Santa Cruz Boardroom skate shop— has figured out how to play to his strengths. “I’m not a joke writer, in the sense of the one-liner,” he says. “I was trying to write jokes like that, and it just wasn’t working.” So he started getting back to what had made “California Calling” a success—the stories about his life. Much of his material comes straight out of his life as a father of two. “It’s not made up,” says Sib. “The thing that I love is getting up there and talking about literally what’s happening in my life at that moment.” What’s happening, basically, is that a fortysomething who grew up a teenage delinquent listening to Black Flag and the Clash has realized his very existence now forces him to sell out his anti-authoritarian punk ideals. “Suddenly, I’m a father, and now I am the authority. I am the Man,” he says, with genuine bewilderment. “The irony of it is insane.” It hasn’t always been an easy transition. He remembers arguing with his son, who had gotten into the habit of dismissing him by calling him “dude” all the time. “I’m your father, treat me with respect!” Sib reprimanded him. “Don’t call me dude, bro!” “I actually said that,” Sib admits. His daughter has provided some

great ironic material too, as when he stresses about all the new ways her generation might improve on the trouble his generation got into. “I’m like, ‘What’s an emoji? What’s a shoe, a cake, a bat and a wink? What does that mean?’ If you’re a dad like me, you think that means party, sex, drugs.” The biggest twist on his reality, though, is that “California Calling” was very much about growing up as a child of divorce, and it plugged into the feelings many ’80s teens had that their parents—or at the very least, their parents’ generation—had failed them. After having teens of his own, he can’t remember why he ever thought this was a thing. “I’ve called my mom and dad and said ‘I don’t know how you guys did it, but I cannot thank you enough,’” he says. “‘I’m so grateful you didn’t strangle me.’” Sib sees his stand-up career as part of a natural progression in his life. But he’s glad some things never change, and he loves coming back to Santa Cruz to perform. “It’s such a recharge,” he says of being in Santa Cruz. “A piece of my heart is still there.” He’s even going to hook up with some of his friends at his old stomping ground, the Scotts Valley Skate Park, the morning of the show. “It’s going to be a full-on old man skate session,” he says. Joe Sib performs at 7 p.m. on Saturday, Aug. 2, at the Santa Cruz Boardroom, 825 41st Ave., Santa Cruz. The 16 and over show is free. There will be tacos.

Lady Luck

48

Amy Bloom follows the twists of hope and desire in ‘Lucky Us’ BY WENDY MAYER-LOCHTEFELD

F

ranklin Roosevelt might have put it best: “I think we consider too much the good luck of the early bird, and not enough the bad luck of the early worm.” In Amy Bloom’s new novel, “Lucky Us,” good luck and bad go hand in hand, as two teenaged halfsisters crisscross the country during WWII, in search of a lucky break. Roosevelt's fireside chats fill the airways, and tunes like “Pennies from Heaven” provide the radio soundtrack to their travels. Each chapter heading is a song title from the ’30s or ’40s. In “Lucky Us,” Bloom tells an American story, peopled by ambitious outsiders trying to make their way

in a changing landscape. Fueled by their self-deception as much as self-invention, the book doesn’t pull punches, but instead captures our relentless desire to rise above. It’s literary candy of the best stripe: sweet, salty, tart. Damaging yet desirable, it leaves you wanting one more bite. Bloom specializes in the unflinching acceptance of marginal characters. She celebrates them with a fierce joy that reminds us how close to the edge we all stray. In that vein, along with three celebrated collections of short stories and two other novels—including “Away,” which was nominated for the National Book Award—she wrote “Normal,”

a work of nonfiction that explores the variations of sex and gender that define our intimate lives, and “Little Sweet Potato,” a children’s book that honors resilience and diversity. She is a student of human character, which makes sense in the context of her history as a psychotherapist. Asked how her training has played into her fiction, she says, “I learned not to interrupt, to pay attention to what was said and how—and what was said before, and what was said after. I learned to make as few assumptions as possible, to recognize that people are in their nature complex. I don't think you can be a good writer and a bad listener.”

The book’s plot is full of thwarted assumptions, and lucky and unlucky breaks of all kinds. When bookish, awkward, 12-year-old Eva is left by her mother on her father's Ohio doorstep, his wealthy wife has just died, his pretense as a blue-blooded professor is wearing thin, and his talented, self-absorbed, older daughter, Iris, who Eva has never met, has her eyes on Hollywood. Eva counts herself lucky when Iris decides to head west in search of stardom and offers to takes her along, but the going gets tough when glamour bares its teeth and scandal takes hold. Shut out of the movie industry and struggling to make ends meet, Iris and Eva head back east to the gentler mansions of Long Island, accompanied by their newly broke father, Edgar, and Iris’ gay Mexican makeup artist, Francisco Diego. There, Iris serves as governess to a wealthy Italian immigrant family, and falls in love with their beautiful cook, Reenie. Edgar is their butler, finding his soul mate in a black jazz singer named Clara. Reenie's German husband, Gus, befriends Eva, just before he is deported back to Germany to face the brutal bombings of Dresden and Pforzheim. Eva finds her strength while reading tarot cards at a Brooklyn beauty parlor, where she grants troubled patrons better futures than the ones they envision for themselves. Woven into the fabric is a Jewish orphan named Danny, a French psychic, and Francisco Diego's lively sisters. Random tragedy blends with high comedy in scenes of exquisite surprise that gather like storm clouds and dissipate in bursts, the weight of war ever present on the margins. Much of the story is told from Eva's invincible point of view, along with letters from her father, sister, Gus, and Danny, which provide a ringing chorus of hopes and regrets. So, is it better to be lucky than smart? Sure, says Bloom. To a point. “Luck is a roll of the dice and we are all subject to it,” she says. “Better to be lucky and smart, so you have a plan when the dice go against you— which they will sometimes.” Amy Bloom will be appearing at Bookshop Santa Cruz on Wednesday, Aug. 6 at 7:30 p.m.; free.

FORCE TO BE RECKONED WITH Computer animation pioneer Larry Cuba worked on the effects for the original ‘Star Wars.’

Larry Cuba’s algorithmic graphics blend the world of mathematics into cutting-edge digital art BY CHRISTINA WATERS

H

igh-tech recluse, animation innovator, ergonomic inventor. Larry Cuba is all that and more. An acknowledged pioneer of computer animation, Cuba was among the 1970s avant-garde of artist-mathematicians with the computer chops to program pretty much anything they wanted. Inspired by film visionaries like Oskar Fischinger and Jordan Belson, what Cuba wanted was to create computer-generated image patterns set to music, much like digital light shows. “The goal was to create a visual temporal art that was purely abstract,

the way music is,” he says. Adjoining rooms in his Santa Cruz studio are filled with vintage model toys, a Smithsonian of antique computers, and a sci-fi bank of computers running code. Atop a wall of shelves sit the original models Cuba digitized for Star Wars. “Special effects and commercials are the day jobs of experimental filmmakers,” Cuba jokes, noting that his hero, German animator Oskar Fischinger had done special effects for Fritz Lang’s Woman in the Moon. “Star Wars was actually grueling work,” he admits. “And it didn’t pay as well as you’d think,” he says with a grin. After architecture school in St. Louis, the Atlanta-born

Cuba studied at CalArts, where he saw the animated abstract shorts that changed everything. “John Whitney at UCLA was doing computer graphics as an art form, and I wanted to learn from him,” says Cuba, who knew that algorithmically generated abstract films, “were never, ever going to be prime time. But I accepted that going in. I wanted to be part of Oskar Fischinger’s tradition.” While still a grad student at CalArts, Cuba gained access to NASA’s Jet Propulsion Lab mainframes and worked with Whitney on his first film Arabesque, a mesmerizing flow of visual undulations set to psychedelic music. More films followed, including

Cuba’s award-winning Two Space and Calculated Movements. “The joy of working on these animations is that you can see things you can’t even imagine. Using algorithms, it’s always fresh and new.” Cuba admits he spends a lot of time “sitting in the studio by myself.” In 1995, after a residency at Germany’s innovative ZKM design think tank, Cuba set up a nonprofit foundation called Iota, dedicated to promoting visual music. Cuba and Iota sourced libraries for rare animations, created a study center, and went on the film festival circuit. Ultimately, he packaged these esoteric films into a program called Kinetica. “We shopped it to museums, galleries, the Tate, National Gallery, MOMA, and it was wildly successful,” says Cuba. “People responded to the early works as well as the newer generation of visualists.” In his twin studios—a fabrication shop and the computer lab—Cuba lives a schizophrenic life. “I look at the screen for a long time, then go to the shop to touch something tangible,” he says. “If I hit the wall with one project, then I go to the other. The solution to one often occurs when I’m doing the other. A nice way to get balance.” Cuba freely admits that he’s been working on “the next film”—that’s its working title—for the past 10 years. Even he won’t know when it’s done. “Now there’s a new language that makes algorithmic graphics available,” he says. “Very few people are doing it. Mostly they use Photoshop. But I’m interested in the math side of the brain—visuals that no one’s ever seen before.” Generated by the code Cuba writes day after day like a 21st-century alchemist, the most recent 3D projects generate spinning shapes that seem to dance, morph and cascade in repeating and evolving sequences. Choreographed to raga and gamelan musical soundtracks, Cuba’s animations are nothing short of trance-inducing. With today’s powerful computers and the Internet as the ultimate distribution network, Cuba thinks now is absolutely the right time for digital artwork. Even if it isn’t exactly commercially viable. Yet.

Dance isn’t just good for the body, it’s good for the soul—a full-body experience that can help in processing life events through mind, body, and spirit integration, according to Dr.Rachel Jordana Horodezky. Creative Dance Psychology is a unique way to explore the ways in which healing and growing have to do with the physical; just as trauma is felt in the limbs, sometimes too emotional catharsis can come from moving those limbs. Dr. Horodezky is a licensed clinical psychologist and founder of creative dance psychology and this month the Lotus Collaborative features her work as part of a monthly series to create a foundation of therapeutic modalities that offers something for everyone.

Whetherman takes their “Hide and Seek” tour through Santa Cruz this Saturday with their sunny Americana sound. Drawing inspiration from the likes of Paul Simon, Woody Guthrie, and Eric Clapton, the band ends a five-week Europe tour to venture out to warmer waters and benefit the Art Bar’s mission to fund local music programs. Independently written, produced and released, Whetherman’s albums are a mish-mash of easy-listening melodies, good ol’ crooning vocals, and poetic grooves with a deep folk infusion from the marshes of Jacksonville, Florida.

MUSIC CALENDAR GENTLEMAN

LOVE YOUR

LOCAL BAND THE CONCAVES

Being a surfer isn’t a requirement for enjoying local surf-rock quartet The Concaves—but it helps. Their lyrics are not only full of surfer lingo, but the band references several local surf spots in their songs. Then again, what else would they sing about? These guys are longtime diehard surfers and surf musicians. In fact, guitarist/singer Bill Pitts, aka Dogfish, started surfing and playing surf music at the same time, in the early ’60s. “Some surfers like our music, especially the older guys. The younger ones have their own preferences. They didn’t grow up in the golden age of rock and surf,” says Pitts.

JULY 30-AUGUST 5, 2014 | GTWEEKLY.COM | SANTACRUZ.COM

The Concaves play both instrumental surf tunes, like Dick Dale, and ones with vocals, like the early Beach Boys, but they have also modernized the sound a bit.

62

“I love The Shadows. I love The Ventures, The Bel-Airs. But I also love AC/DC and Pink Floyd. I love their heaviness, and I try to combine that with some of my surf instrumentals,” says Pitts. “I’m not really a purist in that sense. Why not use what you know?” Concaves tunes aren’t always about where to catch the best waves; Pitts sings about his life as a surfer, and that includes some very personal songwriting. Pitts wrote “Lil Walquine” about his daughter, also a surfer, who has passed away. “Everyone on the westside called her Walking Queen, ’cause she was such a good nose rider,” Pitts says. “It’s just kind of like memories like that that you think of when you’re writing a song.” AARON CARNES INFO: 8 p.m., Saturday, Aug. 2 Don Quixote’s, 6275, Hwy 9, Felton. $10. 603-2294

WEDNESDAY 7/30 AMERICANA

EVANGENITALS The Evangenitals is an amazing band name, but it was originally intended for an adult toy company, as Julie Crockett and Lisa Dee were administrators at an adult store. They instead used the name for a joke band, which evolved into something more serious. Their latest album, Moby Dick; or, The Album, is inspired by the famous book. The title track retells the entire novel. The rest is more abstract. The album’s single, “Turbulent Flow,” is a weird, campy synth-pop tune, yet most of their music falls somewhere on the spectrum of old timey tonguein-cheek Americana and avant-garde free-form rock. It’s poetic, heartfelt and political, but cheeky, silly and at times experimental, in a Tom Waits sort of way. AARON CARNES INFO: 9 p.m. The Crepe Place, 1134 Soquel Ave., Santa Cruz. $10. 429-6994.

THURSDAY 7/31 AFROBEAT

ZONGO JUNCTION Brooklyn has an impressive blos-

soming Afrobeat scene. But it was in Africa itself that the drummer and founder of Zongo Junction was inspired to dive into the music. He returned to the states in 2009 after a six-month trip in Ghana, to start the band with several like-minded New Yorkers. Their music is fun, driving and incredibly danceable, mixing the traditional West African beats with funk, jazz and psychedelic soul. They sport somewhere between nine and 12 members, depending on whom you ask. Either way, that is a lot of members, and most of them are either on percussion or horns. Zongo Junction is busy touring, hot off the release of their second LP, No Discount. AC INFO: 8:30 p.m. Moe’s Alley, 1535 Commercial Way, Santa Cruz. $9/adv, $12/ door. 479-1854.

FRIDAY 8/1 JAM ROCK

JERRY GARCIA TRIBUTE In honor of what would have been the legendary Grateful Dead frontman’s 72nd birthday, the Wheel Company will be putting on this special event. Joining forces for the evening will be

a number of the area’s Grateful Dead luminaries, including Shady Groove’s Jerry Brown, the China Cats’ Scott Cooper, Spirit of 76’s Matt Hartle, and Slugs & Roses’ Larry Graff. Vocalist Tammi Brown, pianist Steve Sofranko, bassist Roger Sideman and drummer Paul Garcia will also be appearing, as will Mik and Kat from the Garcia Project. BRIAN PALMER INFO: 8 p.m. Kuumbwa Jazz, 320-2 Cedar St., Santa Cruz. $20/adv, $25/door. 427-2227.

ROCK/FOLK

HOD & THE HELPERS Hod Hulphers is a brainy, goofball Santa Cruz songwriter who falls somewhere between the Mountain Goats and Nick Cave. Solo, he performs folk-ish songs as “And Hod.” Backed by his group, which includes Dan Potthast and members of Slow Gherkin, he is “Hod and the Helpers.” They rock a little harder, and cover more genres than folk, though it’s all in the service of Hod’s sardonic songwriting. Hod & the Helpers released a seven-and-ahalf-minute video earlier this year for their song “The King Song,” a truly bizarre hip-hop-folk-soul tune with the brilliant, boastful refrain:

INFO: 6:30 p.m. Santa Cruz Museum of Art & History, 705 Front St., Santa Cruz. Free. 429-1964.

In a week of anniversaries, the B-Side Players are touring in support of their 20th. Since forming in 1994, the San Diego band has racked up almost a dozen San Diego Music Awards, and they have won legions of fans over with their electric live shows, which incorporate everything from funk to Cumbia, and rock to jazz. They have released seven albums, with their most recent being 2012’s Revolutionize, and since they are a nine-piece outfit, their penchant for creating a rich sound with a lot of different textures is practically their trademark. BP

SATURDAY 8/2 REGGAE

GENTLEMAN Though German reggae is not something you’re probably used to hearing, you should give it a listen. Born in Germany, but inspired by frequent trips to Jamaica over the past two decades, Gentleman, aka Tilmann Otto, has created his own distinct blend of traditional reggae and more modern hip-hop beats and grooves. While Gentleman's 2004 album Confidence and 2010 album Diversity both reached No. 1 on the German music charts, Otto wrote most of his lyrics and set down his vocals in Kingston, Jamaica for his newest album New Day Dawn. This latest album is purely Gentleman, featuring no collaborations or other artists, with the sound of a grand piano inspiring much of the album’s heartfelt sound. SYDNEY MOORHEAD INFO: 9 p.m. The Catalyst, 1011 Pacific Ave., Santa Cruz. $28/adv, $32/door. 423-1336.

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

SUNDAY 8/3 INDIE ROCK

REAL ESTATE For a few years, Real Estate was an ’80s-inspired indie band from New Jersey that played accessible, guitar-driven pop songs. But the band took a turn into the introspective on their latest release, Atlas, with lyrics that explore loneliness, growing

older and “crippling anxiety.” But not to worry—rather than drifting off into Eeyore land, the new material feels mature and engaged, reflecting the evolution of a young suburban band—Real Estate formed when its members were in high school—into an outfit discovering both the pain and beauty that come with experience. CJ

INFO: 7:30 p.m., Monday, Aug.11. Rio Theatre, 1205 Soquel Ave., Santa Cruz. $45 general, $75/gold. 423-8209. WANT TO GO? Go to santacruz.com/ giveaways before 11 a.m. on Friday, Aug. 1, to find out how you could win a pair of tickets to the show.

INFO: 9 p.m. Catalyst, 1011 Pacific Ave., Santa Cruz. $22/adv, $25/door. 423-1338.

FOLK BLUES

CHRIS SMITHER A masterful song crafter, Chris Smither builds his music from the strings up, layering smooth melodies and catchy lyrics on top of guitarwork that rivals that of the finest fingerpickers around. A triple threat of technique, writing and singing, Smither has been playing folk blues since the 1960s folk revival, and is revered by disciples of the genre. It’s somewhat mysterious why he flies under the radar of widespread recognition, but thank your lucky stars that you can still catch him in an intimate venue. CJ INFO: 7:30 p.m. Kuumbwa Jazz, 320-2 Cedar St., Santa Cruz. $25/gen, $40/gold. 427-2227.

“You can’t vote me in/you can’t vote me out.” AC

Winning a Grammy is quite an accomplishment. Winning 20 Grammys? Now we're talking some next-level artistry. Such is the case with Chick Corea, a keyboardist and composer whose many musical contributions include forming the pioneering jazzfusion group Return to Forever. Over a celebrated career, Corea has played alongside Miles Davis, Anthony Braxton, Blue Mitchell and many more, and he has a well-established reputation for being a musical explorer, taking on numerous genres and styles. His current group, Vigil, has a repertoire that spans Corea's work, showcasing the breadth and depth of the NEA Jazz Master's catalog, and playing with what Jazzwise Magazine calls "gale force intensity."

FILM

REAL LIFE Actor Ellar Coltrane plays Mason, who is seven when the film begins and 18 by the time it’s over.

Time Capsule

Actors age in real time in audacious, mesmerizing ‘Boyhood’ BY LISA JENSEN his child protagonists—to age naturally onscreen. It sounds like a stunt, but watching these characters grow up before our eyes (adults included), makes for a bold, moving, and utterly mesmerizing moviegoing experience. At the center of the film is a boy named Mason. The actor who plays him, Ellar Coltrane, was seven years old when the film started shooting in 2002, and 18 when it wrapped last year. We first meet Mason and his older sister, Samantha (the director’s daughter, Lorelei Linklater), living in a Texas suburb with their divorced mom, Olivia (Patricia Arquette). Their lives are punctuated by sporadic visits from their dad, Mason Sr. (longtime Linklater collaborator Ethan Hawke), a footloose manchild who rooms with a buddy, plays indifferent country-rock guitar, and

doesn’t seem to have, like, a job. Upheaval occurs when their mom moves the kids to Houston so she can go to college and get a better-paying job. But there’ll be more moves, more new schools, even new step parents and siblings. One minute, little Mason is sniggering over a lingerie catalogue, then he’s encountering bullies, experiencing his first fastfood job and the first stirrings of romance, and waxing philosophical about robotic mind control and the meaning of life. Nothing much remarkable occurs, but it all feels so achingly true. It’s fun to watch these kids grow up, but it’s not just the kids who come of age; the adults also evolve in ways that resonate, sometimes painfully, with the audience. (Olivia’s unfortunate romances, although they always begin with such promise,

BOYHOOD **** (out of four) With Ellar Coltrane, Patricia Arquette, and Ethan Hawke. Written and directed by Richard Linklater. An IFC release. Rated R. 166 minutes.

SANTACRUZ.COM | GTWEEKLY.COM | JULY 30-AUGUST 5, 2014

R

emember the 1964 film 7 Up? It was the first in a series of extraordinary documentaries that profiled a classroom of seven-yearold British kids, who were then revisited and filmed by director Michael Apted at seven-year intervals to see how their lives were turning out. (They were 56 in 2012, when Apted last checked in.) The evolution of lives and stories in real time is not something the movies often do. In fiction films, especially, stories are telescoped into dramatic highlights with actors of various ages playing the same part at different stages of life. Which is why Richard Linklater’s Boyhood is so refreshingly audacious. Linklater had the simple yet brilliant idea to shoot a scripted film over a period of 12 years, allowing his cast—including

tend to have uncomfortable, sometimes scary repercussions.) Linklater’s shooting schedule was to reconvene his cast and crew for three or four days once a year and film another scene. No subtitles proclaim the date; as in real life, we can only guess by subtle physical and emotional changes in the kids (and their hairstyles) that time has passed. Until, with a sudden shock, we realize that the cherubic-faced little Mason we remember from a couple of scenes ago has become a tall, rangy teen. Cultural references mark the time in Linklater’s universe. Kids dress up in costume at a midnight bookstore party for the next volume of Harry Potter. Dad sends them out to post Obama/Biden campaign signs on neighborhood lawns. Gadgetry evolves from early video games and a vintage turquoise iMac to iPhones and Facebook pages, and the subtle but persistent musical soundtrack ranges from Coldplay to Gnarls Barkley to Gotye. With only a few days to shoot per year, Boyhood must have been very carefully planned, at least in terms of story arc. It doesn’t have as much of an improv feel as Linklater’s Before Sunset and its sequels, yet it conveys the flow and flexibility of real life, mostly from the director allowing room for his actors’ personalities to shape scenes. Hawke’s scenes with the kids are priceless, whether Mason Sr. is embarrassing 15-year-old daughter Sam with condom advice (“Ewww, Dad!”), or gifting Mason with a mix tape of ex-Beatle solo cuts he calls “The Black Album.” (“I put the band back together again!”) Arquette is also excellent as the harried but fiercely loving mom. About to send Mason off to college, she has a sudden meltdown over how fast it’s all gone by. “I thought there would be more,” she cries. Even though Boyhood clocks in at just under three hours, we know exactly how she feels, so caught up have we become in these heartfelt lives.

Nelsan Ellis, Dan Aykroyd, Viola Davis, Octavia Spencer, and Tika Sumpter co-star. (PG-13) Starts Friday. (Saved FGB) GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY In this stand-alone Marvel Comics adaptation, an American pilot obtains a device coveted by a master villain as the key to universe-domination, and assembles an eccentric gang of intergalactic warriors to protect it. Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Dave Bautista, and Lee Pace star, Vin Diesel and Bradley Cooper provide voices for CGI characters, and John C. Reilly, Glenn Close, and Benicio Del Toro pop up in cameos. James Gunn directs. (PG-13) 121 minutes. Starts Friday. (Saved FGB)

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. AND SO IT GOES Michael Douglas and Diane Keaton star in this autumnal rom-com from director Rob Reiner. He plays a crusty, misanthropic realtor suddenly saddled with taking care of a granddaughter he never even knew he had. She’s the empathetic neighbor he tries to palm the child off on, hoping to resume his selfish life uninterrupted. Newcomer Sterling Jerins co-stars. (PG-13) (Saved FGB) BEGIN AGAIN Writer-director John Carney (Once) tries to make lightning strike again in this musical romance. Keira Knightley stars as a small-town girl struggling in the Village folk scene of New York after her rising star boyfriend (Adam Levine) dumps her. Mark Ruffalo is a scruffy, former record exec who wants to make her a star. (R) 101 minutes. BOYHOOD Reviewed this issue. (R) 166 minutes. (****)—Lisa Jensen. 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. THE FLUFFY MOVIE Comic actor Gabriel “Fluffy” Iglesias stars in this concert film of his stand-up comedy act on his recent “Unity Through Laughter” tour. Filmed at the HP Pavilion in San Jose. (PG-13) 101 minutes.

Dean DeBlois directs. (PG) 102 minutes. I ORIGINS Writer-director Mike Cahill and star Brit Marling, from Another Earth, re-team for this metaphysical sci-fi drama about a molecular biologist and his lab partner, studying the evolution of the eye, who stumble upon a discovery that challenges everything they think they know about reality, science, and spirituality. Michael Pitt, Steven Yeun, and Astrid BergèsFrisbey co-star. (R) 113 minutes. (Saved FGB) 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. LUCY Starting from the premise that humans use only 10 percent of their brain power, Luc Besson’s thriller stars Scarlett Johansson as a woman whose brain is experimentally amped up to bionic levels—turning her into (what else?) a merciless warrior.

Ed Harris, Julie Bowen, Wes Studi, and Captain Dale Dye provide additional voices. Roberts Gannaway directs. (PG) 83 minutes. THE PURGE: ANARCHY It’s hard to imagine what would constitute “anarchy” within the premise of thisnear-future horror franchise in which, one night a year, the authorities look the other way while vigilantes are free to run amok in the streets and murder at will. (Hmmm...maybe it’s not so “futuristic” after all...) Nevertheless, writer-director James DeMonaco is back with a new cast of potential victims. Zach Gilford, Frank Grillo, and Kiele Sanchez star. (R) 103 minutes. SEX TAPE Jason Segel and Cameron Diaz star in this comedy about a

married couple trying to spice up their romantic life; shooting a private video of themselves trying out every position in The Joy of Sex leads to a night of hysteria as they try to prevent their video from going viral. Jake Kasdan directs. (R) 90 minutes. 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. TRANSFORMERS: AGE OF EXTINCTION The giganto-bot franchise gets a reboot with a new cast of humans to interact with the CGI stars.

Stanley Tucci, Li Bingbing , Kelsey Grammer, and Sophia Myles co-star for director Michael Bay. Bring your earplugs. (PG-13) 166 minutes. VENUS IN FUR Adapted from the stage play by David Ives, which was inspired by the works of Leopold von Sacher-Masoch (the Austrian writer who put the “M” in S&M), Roman Polanski’s two-character drama is a witty meditation on sex and sexism, and the corruption of the notion of love by less wholesome desires. Essentially a dialogue between an actress (Emmanuelle Seigner) arriving late for an audition, and a touchy director (Mathieu Amalric) in an empty Paris theater after hours, it doesn’t trade in graphic sex; instead, it’s something far more cerebral, smart, and surprising. (Not rated) 95 minutes. (***)—Lisa Jensen. WISH I WAS HERE A decade after directing his first indie hit, Garden State, Zach Braff returns to the big screen as director, co-writer, and star of this comedy about an underemployed, 30-something actor coping with an overworked wife (Kate Hudson), an ailing parent (Mandy Patinkin), and the challenge of home-schooling his two kids. Josh Gad co-stars. (R) 106 minutes. (Saved FGB)

SALT OF THE EARTH Emily Freed creates culinary salt blends using organic herbs and a kick of spice.

Worth Her Salt

Emily Freed’s sensuous salts, plus spirits and salmon BY CHRISTINA WATERS

W

e now have two new favorite salts on our table, keeping company with the usual Bretagne and pink Himalayan varieties. One blends parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme with kosher salt, another, called “Spice It Up Salt,” includes the kick of cayenne and smoked paprika. Under the handsome retro Farmer Freed label, they are among the six new varieties of culinary salts developed and marketed by the very can-do Emily Jane Freed. A former apprentice with the UCSC Agroecology project,

Freed is now a production manager with Jacob’s Farm. “I felt lucky to get such a great job out of the program,” she says. “Every day I get to tromp through the fields” of the ninelocation organic network. A few years back, Freed began tinkering around with the farm’s herbs, putting them together with salt and giving samples to her friends for feedback. “I’ve been experimenting with it off and on, and now I'm taking it to the outer world,” she explains. Currently, six varieties of fragrant Farmer Freed Culinary Salts ($10 each) are available, including a Vanilla Sea

Salt that Freed created as a baking salt—“I love to bake,” she says. For her savory salts, she chose Kosher salt. “It’s a bigger, coarser grain with a beautiful texture.” Another blend of thyme, marjoram and kosher salt is called “Sababa,” which means “awesome” in Hebrew. Freed was interested in creating a Jewish product, “one that could support Jewish female farmers,” such as the You Grow Girl project she created that helps to raise awareness and financial support. “Salt flavors our food. It brings that added oomph that makes everything taste good,”

Angie and I swung by Johnny’s Harborside last week for some “Drinks with the Distiller” featuring Venus Gin cocktails and a chance to talk spirits with Sean Venus. The beautiful round bottle of Venus Gin Blend No. 1 is filled with a distinctive artisanal infusion of aromatics. We detected cardamom, lemon, juniper, angelica root and lavender among the flavor notes. It made into a lovely cocktail, with lime and lychee, called (appropriately enough) “Vague Recollections.” Smart appetizers, including micro french fries with a kalamata cream dipping sauce, kept us company as we got hypnotized by the boats bobbing in the sunlight. The Venus Spirits tasting room is still a work in progress on the Westside, but meanwhile the elixir’s in the bottle and headed toward retail all over the Bay Area. 41st Avenue Liquors already has the new flagship Venus Gin Blend No. 01—$30—but you can now sample Venus Gin cocktails at Crows Nest, Cafe Rio, Cafe Cruz and Crepe Place.

ASSEMBLY LUNCH: PART III Lunch at Assembly last week was a thing of joy. Bev ordered the house chopped salad with shredded chicken breast ($12.50), loaded with delicious little gem lettuces, yellow and orange cherry tomatoes, kraut, avocado, egg, olives, and topped with crunchy quinoa and red wine vinaigrette. My poached salmon salad ($13) was gorgeous, with fat morsels of poached salmon, ringed with chunky red and yellow beets, slices of crispy fried green tomatoes crunchy in a cornmeal batter (highly addictive!), yogurt, and drizzles of tarragon-spiked olive oil. We split an order of Pellegrino Chinotto, a bitter cola flavored drink made from the myrtle-leaved orange. Not sweet, very intriguing. Can’t wait to try Assembly’s new brunch.

his vivacious cherry-pink Rosé is a simply beautiful summer wine. Full of bright aromas of strawberries, watermelon and a smidgen of apricot, the Muns Vineyard Rosé of Pinot Noir, 2013 (around $20) has an enticing fragrant nose to appreciate before you get to the first lovely taste of bright fruit flavors. Crisp and dry, it’s a refreshing delight on a summer’s day—and it’s perfect to pair with picnic fare and appetizers. But this is no limp wine. It has enough body to hold its own with hardier foods as well, and this is certainly what winemaker Ed Muns had in mind when extracting the juice from his big bold Pinot Noir grapes. Muns and partner Mary Lindsay are producing some excellent wines on their sky-high property in the Santa Cruz Mountains. At 2,600 feet, its elevation on the Loma Prieta ridge catches both maritime breezes and the right amount of sunshine. Muns first planted his Pinot Noir vineyard in 1998 and has garnered a wealth of experience since his very first crush. I took a bottle of this Rosé to share with friends at a birthday gathering at Seascape Beach Resort (corkage is $18) and everybody loved it. With a sparkling ocean as our backdrop, sitting outside on the resort’s beautiful patio could not have been better as we shared little plates of pizzas and quesadillas. It’s a perfect spot for munchies when you don’t need a full meal.

ast December, a new Indian restaurant opened in the spot once held by Royal Taj. While it occupies the same building, it is a very different restaurant, immediately striking in its elegant ambience. It’s filled with gorgeous pieces of Indian art and paintings, and a soothing soundtrack of traditional Indian music. Each plate at the table setting even has the restaurant’s logo emblazoned on it. “Presentation is everything,” head chef Didar Singh told us regarding the building’s updated look.

GT: You have an extensive menu of mostly northern Indian dishes. In particular, you offer quite a few vegan dishes. Didar Singh:Yes. The more people that like vegan food, the more I like to do vegan food in my kitchen. A few are aloo gobhi mattar, channa masala, and jeera aloo—which is a little spicy, and has onion and tomato flavors. Our naan is vegan, too. We are trying to promote more vegan food.

One of your most popular vegan items is the appetizer, vegetable pakora. What is that? That’s mixed vegetables like spinach, potato, cauliflower, onions. We use

chickpea flour as our batter and it’s fried. It has a crispy texture. It’s a little bit fluffy around the vegetables. It’s like an explosion of flavors. You have to try it.

One of your curries is the jaz frazie. Tell me about that. It’s medium spicy, with an onion and tomato gravy sauce, with carrots, bell peppers, potatoes and peas mixed in a with whatever you want, chicken or lamb. It’s not a runny sauce, or very thick, it’s in-between. It’s got a bit of spice, but when you eat it, you don’t feel it. It just blends right in.

A lot of people skip dessert at Indian restaurants, but you carry ras malai. Why should people try it? It’s a cottage cheese patty which has a cardamom, almond flavor to it. It’s not rice pudding, but it’s a sauce similar to the rice pudding [kheer]. The ras malai takes four hours to make. The patty is boiled. It’s a long process. It’s very soft and spongy. The name ras means “sweet,” but it’s not too sweet, although sweet is its only taste, nothing else.

+ RISA’S STARS BY RISA D’ANGELES IN THE TIME OF LEO: OUR CREATIVE EFFORTS Esoteric Astrology as news for week July 30 – Aug. 5, 2014

In this potent time for planet earth, when missiles are downing passenger planes, humanity seems poised on the edge of World War 3. In this time of Leo, as world leaders are called to display true leadership (power, wisdom, love, intelligence) the New Group of World Servers are called to creatively visualize dialogue and open communication in order to bring about harmony from the present conflicts. Leo is the sign where the forces of light and the forces of materialism meet. Leo is the lion of the zodiac, a fiery and dramatic being, always creating in order to reflect self. Emerging from this creative effort is an awareness of gifts and

ARIES Mar21–Apr20 Your task in the upcoming times is to creatively initiate the new world era, fashioning communities that sustain large groups of like-minded people gathered together to follow the initiating steps you have created. You will then hand the tasks over to those who can build and maintain your ideas. You must understand the importance of this work. You are, on the soul level, Mercury, Ray 4, messenger of the rainbow bridge.

TAURUS Apr21–May21 You research all that others have discovered for creating the new world. You refine, teach, mentor and essentially stabilize all that is to be new for humanity. You will know when to present these ideas to the larger world after experimenting with them within your like-minded group. You are to sustain the new reality and prepare the many generations to come. You are Vulcan, Ray 1, the forger of lead into gold.

GEMINI May 22–June 20

talents that must be brought forth into the world. Leo creative efforts lead to a new identification of self. Leo is about understanding who we are through what we create. Leo streams through the three levels of the sun—core, heart and rays—the force behind the creation of earth. In this month of Leo, like the sun, we are called to new creative efforts for ourselves, humanity and the world. Leo has the capacity to do this. For Leo is the “heart of all that matters”, the fiery impulse within each of us, the creative force which is the “will-to-good.” Will-to-good creates goodwill within humanity.

feminine, blindfolded and holding the scales. You will work with Gemini and Cancer energies to create new resources for humanity’s economic stability, needed after the old economic structures to dissolve. You are to help humanity create relationships of care where none existed, by establishing right human relations. You are Uranus, Ray 7, the new rhythm, anchoring the new culture and civilization.

SCORPIO Oct23–Nov21 Your task is to constantly pass the nine tests of Mars; to realize you're in a constant cycle of life, death, regeneration, and transformation. You too must study the ancient wisdom, preparing the pathway of light for the coming world teacher, understanding changes that will at first distress and then regenerate suffering humanity. You, a teacher for the upcoming transformations, are Mars, Ray 6, the hope of the future.

SAGITTARIUS Nov22–Dec20 You are to lead the way by offering new goals to humanity, new prayers, moving us toward a sharing society and away from a society of individuals creating their own wheels each day. You’re to study ancient philosophies, readying yourself to be the professor for those seeking new ways of thinking. You are to bring order to the new world order seeking to manifest. First you need education in these things yourself. You are Ray 3, earth’s divine intelligence.

CANCER Jun21–Jul20

CAPRICORN Dec21–Jan20

You nurture new ideas that create new thinking for humanity. You also tend, care for and nourish those on the front lines of the new civilization. Through you, the birth of a new culture comes forth. You are to open the gates to new impressions for a new world being birthed. The entire world is to be your family. You are Neptune, Ray 6, the trident lifting the personality to the soul.

Caps climb mountains. The constitution of man and mind (esoteric map) is like a mountain, the biblical Jacob's ladder. Jacob saw angels climbing up the ladder (toward spirit) and down (into matter). Humanity has been descending into matter for 18 million years. The time has come to mount the ascending arc upward toward spirit. You will teach humanity the appropriate shoes to climb mountains and reach for the sun. Consider yourself a unicorn, Ray 1.

LE0 Jul21–Aug22 You are to become even more creative with the new information that’s seeking to come forth for humanity. It’s based in astrology, the Ageless Wisdom teachings. It seeks ways that uplift the kingdoms. Ruled by the sun these are your kingdoms, too. You are the leader, the sustainer. You project magnetism from the heart of the Sun. You must lovingly offer your gifts to the group called humanity. You are the sun, Ray 2, love and wisdom.

VIRGO Aug23–Sep22 Gestating always within you is a new state of consciousness. After the needed personality experiences (developmental stages) have been perfected, you concentrate on understanding what the new materiality is, organizing it into a structure understandable by humanity. The time for this is soon. Study how humanity is to be fed and cared for. You are Ceres. You are the moon hiding Vulcan, Ray 1, forging the new world.

LIBRA Sep23–Oct22 You are to bring forth justice, giving sight to the

AQUARIUS Jan21–Feb18 Your tasks, future oriented yet for right here and right now, are many. You’re to build a new spaceship earth. You are to build geodesic biodomes, environments to grow fish and vegetables. You are to create communities, sustainable templates for the future where humanity will live. You are to gather bicycles, alert everyone to changes in the coming times, offer yourself as everyone's friend. You are Jupiter, Ray 2, love from the heart of the sun.

PISCES Feb19–Mar20 You are to build the temples where everyone relearns how to think, pray and meditate. Places to study, and locate the energies linking heaven to earth. You are to teach the little ones, the big ones, too, creating festivals bridging the Age of Pisces and Aquarius Piscean through the study of the rays, stars, planets and sun. You are to work with Aquarius until communities are built. You are to offer the mantra of direction to everyone. You are Pluto, Ray 1, the Leader.

SANTACRUZ.COM | GTWEEKLY.COM | JULY 30-AUGUST 5, 2014

You are to gather the new information concerning sustainable principles for humanity, reflecting the aquarian laws and principles. Humanity seeks them. With your gathering mind, mercurial and always curious, you first incorporate these principles into your life to write and distribute them later. Summon patience, intelligence, scientific thought and love. You are Venus, Ray 5, intelligent love uniting dualities.
