Is Burning Man a cult? BY MATTHEW COLE SCOTT
People who come back seem to have their own little in-jokes that no one else gets. I still don’t get it, and I don’t think it’s a cult. CHRISTIAN GOMES
SANTA CRUZ | MUSIC RETAIL
It’s a cult-ure. It’s not a cult because there are no prerequisites, you go and you burn the way you want to burn. No one tells you how to burn. VNES, SANTA CRUZ
CONCIERGE AT THE SANTA CRUZ INFO KIOSK
You don’t know until you’ve gone, or at least that’s what I’m told. And you apparently can’t have an opinion of Burning Man unless you’ve been. RYAN TEKULVE

Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just be smart and articulate, Aries. Dare to be wildly wise and prone to unruly observations. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t merely be kind and well-behaved. Explore the mysteries of healing through benevolent mischief. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t buy into the all-too-serious trances. Break up the monotony with your unpredictable play and funny curiosity. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t simply go along with the stories everyone seems to believe in as if they were the Truth and the Way. Question every assumption; rebel against every foregone conclusion; propose amusing plot twists that send the narratives off on interesting tangents.
If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re planning to hurl a thunderbolt, make sure you are all warmed up and at full strength before you actually unleash it. It would be sad if you flung a half-assed thunderbolt that looked like a few fireflies and sounded like a cooing dove. And please donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t interpret my wiseguy tone here as a sign that Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m just kidding around. No, Libra. This is serious stuff. Life is offering you opportunities to make a major impression, and I want you to be as big and forceful and wild as you need to be. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t tamp down your energy out of fear of hurting peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s feelings. Access your inner sky god or sky goddess, and have too much fun expressing your raw power.
TAURUS Apr20â&#x20AC;&#x201C;May20 Breve orazione penetra is an old Italian idiom. Its literal translation is â&#x20AC;&#x153;short prayers pierceâ&#x20AC;? or â&#x20AC;&#x153;concise prayers penetrate.â&#x20AC;? You can extrapolate from that to come up with the meaning that â&#x20AC;&#x153;God listens best to brief prayers.â&#x20AC;? In the coming week, I invite you to apply this idea whenever you ask for anything, whether you are seeking the favors of the Divine Wow or the help of human beings. Know exactly what you want, and express it with no-nonsense succinctness.

You wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sip dirty water from a golden chalice. Am I right? Nor would you swig delicious poison from a fine crystal wine glass, or 10-year-old vinegar from a queenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s goblet. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sure you will agree that youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d much rather drink a magical elixir from a paper cup, or a rejuvenating tonic from a chipped coffee mug, or tasty medicine out of a kidâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plastic soup bowl you bought at the thrift store. Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t you dare lie to yourself about whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best for you.

Every February, you go through a phase when itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s easier to see the big picture of your life. If you take advantage of this invitation, your experience is like being on a mountaintop and gazing into the vastness. Every August, on the other hand, you are more likely to see the details you have been missing. Transformations that have been too small and subtle to notice may become visible to you. If you capitalize on this opportunity, the experience is like peering through a microscope. Hereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a third variation, Gemini: Around the full moons of both February and August, you may be able to alternately peer into the microscope and simulate the view from a mountaintop. I think thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about to happen.

LE0 Jul23â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Aug22 Every 12 years, the planet Jupiter spends about a year cruising through the sign of Leo. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s there with you now, and will be with you through early August, 2015. What can you expect? EXPANSION! Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s great, right? Yes and no. You might love to have some parts of your life expand; others, not so much. So I suggest you write down your intentions. Say something like this: â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want Jupiter to help me expand my faith in myself, my power to do what I love, and my ability to draw on the resources and allies I need. Meanwhile, I will prune my desires for things I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t really need and cut back on my involvement with things that donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t inspire me. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want those to expand.â&#x20AC;?

TV comedian Stephen Colbert confesses that his safeword is â&#x20AC;&#x153;pumpkin patch.â&#x20AC;? Does that mean he participates in actual BDSM rituals? Is it the code word he utters when he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want the intensity to rise any further, when he doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t want his next boundary crossed? I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know. Perhaps heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s simply joking or speaking metaphorically. Whether or not you engage in literal BDSM, Virgo, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s an aspect of your life right now that has metaphorical resemblances to it. And I suggest that you do the equivalent of using your safeword very soon. Nothing more can be gained from remaining embroiled in your predicament. Even if the ordeal has been interesting or educational up until now, it wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be for much longer. Escape your bondage.
SCORPIO Oct23â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Nov21 In your dreams you may travel to Stockholm, Sweden to accept the Nobel Prize or to Hollywood to pick up your Oscar. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a decent chance that in your sleepy-time adventures you will finally score with the hot babe who rejected you back in high school, or return to the scene of your biggest mistake and do things right this time. I wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be surprised if in one dream you find yourself riding in a gold chariot during a parade held in your honor. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m afraid, however, that you will have to settle for less hoopla and glamour in your waking life. You will merely be doing a fantastic job at tasks you usually perform competently. You will be well-appreciated, well-treated, and well-rewarded. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not so bad, right?
SAGITTARIUS Nov22â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Dec21 Lake Superior State University issues a â&#x20AC;&#x153;Unicorn Questing Privilegeâ&#x20AC;? to those people who are interested in hunting for unicorns. Are you one of them? I wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be surprised if you felt an urge like that in the coming weeks. Unusual yearnings will be welling up in you. Exotic fantasies may replace your habitual daydreams. Certain possibilities you have considered to be unthinkable or unattainable may begin to seem feasible. Questions you have been too timid to ask could become crucial for you to entertain. (You can get your Unicorn Questing License here: http://tinyurl.com/unicornlicense.)
CAPRICORN Dec22â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Jan19 Your ethical code may soon be tested. What will you do if you see a chance to get away with a minor sin or petty crime that no one will ever find out about? What if you are tempted to lie or cheat or deceive in ways that advance your good intentions and only hurt other people a little bit or not at all? Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not here to tell you what to do, but rather to suggest that you be honest with yourself about whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really at stake. Even if you escape punishment for a lapse, you might nevertheless inflict a wound on your integrity that would taint your relationship with your own creativity. Contemplate the pleasures of purity and righteousness, and use them to enhance your power.
AQUARIUS Jan20â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Feb18 â&#x20AC;&#x153;The thorn arms the roses,â&#x20AC;? says an old Latin motto. The astrological omens suggest youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be wise to muse on that advice in the coming weeks. How should you interpret it? Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll leave you to draw your own conclusions, of course, but here are a few hints. It may be that beauty needs protection, or at least buffering. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s possible that you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t simply depend on your sincerity and good intentions, but also need to infuse some ferocity into your efforts. In order for soft, fragile, lovely things to do what they do best, they may require the assistance of tough, strong, hearty allies.
PISCES Feb19â&#x20AC;&#x201C;Mar20 If you go to an American doctor to be treated for an ailment, odds are that he or she will interrupt you no more than 14 seconds into your description of whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wrong. But you must not tolerate this kind of disrespect in the coming days, Piscesâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;not from doctors, not from anyone. You simply must request or, if necessary, demand the receptivity you deserve. If and when itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s given, I urge you to speak your truth in its entirety. Express what has been hidden and suppressed. And this is very important: Take responsibility for your own role in any problems you discuss.

The RTC studies passenger rail options on a line from Davenport to Watsonville BY ARIC SLEEPER
O
n a warm summer evening in Santa Cruz County, while many are enjoying the spoils of the workday’s end, a drove of concerned citizens files into the Live Oak Senior Center for a public workshop. Amidst the stifling air of a packed house with standing room only, Karena Pushnik, senior transportation planner at the Santa Cruz County Regional Transportation Commission (RTC), takes the floor. “We need to be looking at, not only what our needs are today, but also to the future,” says Pushnik. “That’s going to be one of the challenges that I’m putting out to all of you.” In May 2012, the RTC acquired the 32-mile rail line that stretches along the county’s coast from
Davenport to the Pajaro Valley. The RTC purchased the rail branch with funding from the voter-approved state ballot measure, Proposition 116, which stipulates that the line will ultimately be used for passenger rail service. The RTC has studied the feasibility of the potential passenger rail options for the corridor—from dinner trains to streetcars. “The other things that are important to keep in mind is that the corridor is roughly parallel to Highway 1, and we all know Highway 1 is congested,” says Pushnik. “This is one of the purposes why we are looking at this corridor.” After gaining input from county residents in the form of online surveys and outreach at public events, the first phase of the RTC’s passenger rail study is complete.
The next step for the RTC is to pin down three to five specific scenarios for further analysis. Some possible types of trains that could operate on the track include: • The classic locomotive: a simple train that comes at a low cost compared to other types of train technologies, and is the standard commuter rail car along the West Coast. One example of a locomotive in contemporary use is the Seattle Sounder in Washington. • Heavy diesel multiple unit (DMU): a type of self-propelled rail car that will be used in the future SMART passenger rail/ pedestrian pathway project in Sonoma and Marin counties. >12

While most of the discussions around water in Santa Cruz County have focused on quantity, a new draft report released by a state environmental agency has some local water districts also looking closely at quality. The California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment released a draft report in April, examining, among other things, contaminants in water supplies throughout the state. The report is essentially a screening methodology to help identify California communities that are “disproportionately burdened by multiple sources of pollution,” according to state officials. Its coverage is highly granular—broken down into more than 8,000 census tracts. The draft report looked at 12 carcinogenic contaminants, only two of which—arsenic and hexavalent chromium, or chromium-6—are regularly detected in local water sources. Both are considered naturally occurring and aren’t a consequence of man-made activities, according to Taj Dufour, a water engineer with the Soquel Creek Water District. Four out of 16 of the Soquel Creek Water District’s wells—Altivo, Seascape, San Andreas and Bonita—ranked above California’s public health goal limit of .02 parts per billion (ppb) for chromium-6, and in some cases, above the state’s maximum contaminant level (MCL) standard of 10 ppb, which went into effect on July 1—after an MCL of 50 ppb since the 1970s. (A part per billion is about one drop in an Olympic-size swimming pool.) The chromium treatment issues represent a different kind of water problem than what the Soquel Creek Water District has been dealing with in recent months as California’s drought worsens to what some scientists are calling historic levels. Dufour says the chromium is largely traced to the natural geology of the wells—the element leaches out from the ground itself. The SCWD

• An electrical multiple unit train (EMU): the type of technology that Caltrain, in the San Jose area, is proposing to operate in 2019 when it electrifies its system. The EMU is a higher cost option with a price tag around $35 million for a complete train set, but there is an option to purchase used EMUs at a lower cost. • Light rail transit vehicles, which are currently being considered for future use in San Francisco, and are currently used in cities like Sacramento. • Passenger streetcar: at a lower price range and a slower speed, streetcars are
in wide use in cities such as Portland, Oregon and Tacoma, Washington. Whatever the specific type of train technology the RTC decides to implement once the study and planning periods are complete, the rail service would coexist with the Monterey Bay Sanctuary Scenic Trail—a pedestrian and bicycle path that will run adjacent to the line. Some at the passenger rail workshop wondered why there was no study to examine bicycle and pedestrian use of the corridor exclusively. “I am wondering whether your study is going to do any analysis of people who are against passenger rail, or who would like to see the tracks pulled up?” one woman asked. RTC staff and consultants say that’s not something they’re looking at, because Prop 116, which authorized the funds to purchase the
corridor, requires that the rail line be used for passenger rail service. That means that pulling up the tracks and building a stand-alone pedestrian path is not an option at this point. "There are no plans for only one of the transportation options," writes Pushnik in an email to GT. In addition to the public feedback provided at the July 17 workshop, more than 1,200 county residents completed the RTC’s online survey. According to the survey results as of press time, 44 percent of respondents felt that they were extremely interested in using a train to get around the county, while 14 percent were not at all interested. Considering the positive and negative impacts to the county in the long term, 66.5 percent felt that passenger rail would be very good, and at the other end of the spectrum, 11.2 percent of those

California Sen. Bill Monning (D-Carmel) stopped by our office recently, with the legislature on recess for the month of July, to talk about his new bill to regulate boating and relive his failed efforts to require warning labels on sugary drinks. We got into some big-picture discussions, but we’ll start with the good news—or at least the optimistic stuff. Monning is excited about his boating safety bill, SB 941. If signed, it would require boating licenses for people operating boats. The test for the license could be completed online, and the requirement would be phased in gradually between now and 2025, based on age. It would first apply to people 20 years old and younger in 2018.
In a recent letter, Monning wrote that 45 states currently require individuals to take boating safety courses before operating vessels, adding that there were more than 473 boating accidents and 53 fatalities from such incidents in 2012. “A lot of these involve the rotor blades hitting people that are in the water,” Monning tells GT. “People aren’t supposed to drink and drive on the road, but they think when they get on a lake or the ocean it’s open season.” The idea for the bill, which is currently in the Senate appropriations committee, came from a San Luis Obispo County mother who lost her son in a boating accident last year. Maybe this effort will fare better than the senator’s
sugar-labeling bill. Unfortunately for Monning, that bill—which could have been a career landmark piece of legislation for the politician—died in the Assembly health committee. Monning called the news “a disappointment but not a surprise” and says intense lobbying from big business groups like CalBev did it in. “Nobody’s challenging our assertions about the health impacts,” Monning says. “The industry changes the conversation to we’re denying choice—it’s nanny government. We’re not denying choice. We want to provide informed choice. The label was developed by doctors and scientists. It’s incontrovertible. It says: Warning: This beverage contributes to obesity, diabetes and tooth decay. Statement
of fact. Should a consumer have notice that consumption of liquid sugar contributes to those health impacts when it’s well held by the medical establishment?” On the bright side, Monning says partisanship has improved in state politics over the past couple of years—ever since voters granted the legislature the authority to pass budgets with a simple majority in 2010. And though it can be exhaustive for Monning to cover the 600,000 square miles of his district during his month off, he says it’s well worth it. “Doing district work usually means a lot of road time, and a lot of miles, but it’s the most beautiful district in the state of California—200 miles of coastline,” he says. “It could be a lot worse.” JACOB PIERCE

ceased normal pumping operations at Altivo well, which had the highest levels of chromium-6, and reduced pumping at the other affected wells—all of which receive water from the Aromas Red Sands aquifer, which extends from Aptos Creek through the Pajaro Valley. At the Aromas Red Sands aquifer, chromium-6 levels detected ranged from 1.5 ppb to 40 ppb. Chromium-6, an odorless and tasteless element may be a carcinogen if ingested, according to a long-term study by the Department of Health and Human Services National Toxicology Program. It is much more dangerous when it is airborne, but it wasn’t until 2008 that the EPA began a rigorous ongoing review of the health effects of orally ingested
chromium-6. California’s new MCL of 10 ppb is a conservative one, well below the federal standard of 100 ppb. While the report gave comparatively lower marks to local water supplies than might have been expected, local water officials cautioned that the draft report’s methodology could be misleading. They say our drinking water is safe and the report should be taken with a grain of salt. The discrepancy, says County Water Resources Director John Ricker, largely boils down to the difference between two existing thresholds when it comes to standards for substances in drinking water. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency sets the maximum contaminant levels by determining how much of a particular contaminant can be present
with no adverse health effects. MCLs are considered the enforceable drinking water standards that must be met by public water systems. This draft report, however, used a different standard called public health goals (PHGs), which are set by the California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment, a sub-agency of the California EPA. The MCL for chromium-6 is 500 times higher than the public health goal most recently set in 2011, and the MCL for arsenic is 250 times higher than the public health goal, set in 2004. Unlike MCLs, PHGs are not enforceable and aren’t required to be met by any public water system. Like their name suggests, they are set as goals based on public health risk considerations

and include a wide margin of safety— established at the “one-in-a-million” risk level, meaning not more than one person in a population of one million people drinking water daily for 70 years would be expected to develop cancer as a result of exposure. A spokesperson for the OEHHA said the agency wouldn’t comment on the report until it’s finalized. “We’ve not been shown the specific data used,” says Christine Mead, operations and maintenance manager at Soquel Creek Water District. “We’re well within our limits.” The Association of California Water Agencies (CWA) took umbrage with the report as well, writing to the state agency that the CWA has “significant policy, technical and process concerns” with it. One major concern is that the public agencies and other water departments responsible for providing safe drinking water to the public weren’t consulted for the report. The district released its own water quality report in April that showed it was within standards set by the U.S. EPA, whose standards are not as strict as California’s. “The levels we have aren’t a toxic dump or anything like that,” Dufour says. These aren’t new levels, either, he explained. Rather, laboratory testing technology has vastly improved, meaning that smaller and smaller amounts can now be detected. “Over the last three or so years, we’ve been conducting all sorts of studies to focus on water quality programs— specifically focusing on chromium-6,” Dufour says. The district is currently working to install a treatment program that’s expected to take care of the chromium as soon as it gets going—and will bring those levels back down to under 10 ppb billion, with a goal of 8 ppb. That’s expected to happen by the end of August, and the new equipment—which is temporary—can treat 1,000 pounds of water per minute. This will get the district through the next 18 months or so that it expects will be needed to install a more permanent treatment system. Still, Dufour says the district hasn’t had any of its customers reach out to them with concerns about the report, which he emphasizes is still in draft mode.

who responded to the survey felt passenger rail would be very bad for Santa Cruz County. The main concern expressed in the survey, was the cost of building, and the maintenance that comes with the rail’s day-to-day operations. The Transit Authority of Monterey County is in the early stages of a plan to create a rail line from Salinas to Gilroy with a station stop in Pajaro. One day, people may be able to take the train from Santa Cruz, the Bay Area or practically anywhere else across the state. With the RTC looking to the future of passenger rail service, it can be easy to forget that the railroads of the past forged Santa Cruz County into what it is today. In fact, the rail corridor purchased by the RTC is more than 135 years old, and was once a part of a rail network that ran within the county and beyond. While rail cars were originally intended to ship lumber and other commodities they soon became a means to transport people and bolster tourism until automobiles, and modern road technology arose in the 1920s and 1930s, according to an essay by historian Susan Lehman. Motorized buses then replaced the streetcars that once ran throughout the city of Santa Cruz around that time, and recreational uses of rail, like the SunTan Special, which ran from San Francisco to the Boardwalk, later fell by the wayside. Now, as the traffic congestion and environmental impacts of cars and trucks have become problematic, the county looks to the transportation solutions of the past to solve the issues of the present. In the near future, the RTC hopes to complete the passenger rail study, and adopt a final plan by spring of 2015. If any of the passenger rail options are found to be feasible by the RTC, planning and construction would ensue in the coming years. In an ideal scenario, the county could have passenger rail along the corridor by 2020, but it could easily be a decade or more before passenger rail becomes a reality in Santa Cruz County.

Kaufeldt got his start as a dancer at Burning Man in 2009. He attended the festival with his older brother, who at the time was a part of the Dancetronauts, a co-ed dance group whose members don silver jumpsuits and gyrate atop a two-story model of a spacecraft. Kaufeldt was quickly initiated, and at 19 became the youngest member of the troupe. All the Dancetronauts have nicknames, and there’s no grand story behind Kaufeldt’s. It just came to him one night at a party, after he decided he was over saying, ‘Hey my name’s Kris.’” Once he had secured the persona, he developed it further by ensuring his Dancetronauts space suit was lined with faux zebra fur, to make him stand out from the others. Kaufeldt spent a year and a half as a member of the troupe, and today credits them with giving him “the wings that I needed to become White Tiger the Festie Star.” Eventually, he broke away from the group to pursue his own unique style of solo dancing. His departure didn’t come without some bad blood: While he was a Dancetronaut, Kaufeldt began a secret relationship with the girlfriend

allows zebra print, justifying it as basically the same look as a White Tiger); plus a fanny pack and socks with sandals. He wore his socks pulled up all the way to mid-calf, like a 1980’s gym class pupil. He says the party world, the DJ scene, can become something of a “masculine pissing contest” at times, and with his dancing and his costumes, he aims to break up that dynamic, add some femininity to the mix. Audiences, even fun-loving music festival ones, are still for the most part unaccustomed to seeing a heterosexual male push the limits to the extent that Kaufeldt does. “Sometimes when I get too high and stuff, I bring some ratchetness [into my dancing],” he says. “Like, I’ll have my Speedo on and I’ll look at the crowd, and I’ll totally pull my Speedo up into my ass as a way to throw some cheek into my twerk, you know? A lot of people look at it like, ‘whoa.’ Just ‘cause I’m a guy. If it was a girl everyone would be like, ‘ahh,’ but since I’m a guy it’s like, ‘whoa, dude—this is weird now.’” Kaufeldt gets a kick out of seeing people’s reactions to him, especially men. “Some people get so uncomfortable they have to walk away. It’s like, who cares? Let them walk away,” he says. “It’s a very, very empowering thing for me to rip off my pants when I’m on the stage and see a lot of really big tough guys that can’t even look at me. They feel like their frickin’ masculinity just got stomped on. You get to look at them like, ‘Hey guess what? Your girlfriend is gonna stare at this all day long.’”

PARTY ANIMAL <26 <25 balls hanging outâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;in a mile-long bike race. I was staring at it going, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Whoa this is kinda gnarly.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Part of me never ever even wanted to look at another naked maleâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;but to see ten thousand of them, you look at it like, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;this is one of those things that they talk about as knocking down the walls.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s actually a beautiful sight â&#x20AC;Ś Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s trippy to even think about that.â&#x20AC;? He does have boundaries, though. Back in his friendâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s living room, he explained protocol: â&#x20AC;&#x153;If someone wants to come up and give me a hug, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll give them a hug, but then Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll just stick my ass fully next to them and usually turn around and do, like, a twerk.â&#x20AC;? He said heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s had friends come onstage while heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s dancing and ask him for cigarettes, or try to just say hi and hang out. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I have to look at them with a strict look and say like, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;You better get the fuck down.â&#x20AC;&#x2122; A guy doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t come up to a DJ on a set and ask him for a cigarette; donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t come up to me while Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m fuckinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; dancing.â&#x20AC;? u u u Kaufeldt has been to 12 festivals in the last year, and says he was paid to dance at the events eight or 10 times. Sometimes he is hired to dance at an event, like he was at Euphoric Bounce. Other times he buys a ticket to the festival like everyone else, but enough people know him that theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll let him get up onstage and dance anyway. He doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get paid too much for his dancingâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;the highest he ever asked for was $500, for a party in Portland. He told the organizers thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what he would have needed to cover travel expenses, but they said that was out of their price range. For now, Kaufeldt is OK with this. He said he makes a decent living â&#x20AC;&#x153;clipping weed and kinda doing some entrepreneurial stuff,â&#x20AC;? and he likes the idea of pacing himself, fame-wise. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I almost think Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a little too immature right now to make a gripton of cash,â&#x20AC;? he said to me. â&#x20AC;&#x153;If I got paid more than a thousand bucks a week, I think that could maybe lead to
stupid decisions in terms of just, like, blowing money on stupid party shit.â&#x20AC;? At festivals, Kaufeldt can usually be spotted wielding a â&#x20AC;&#x153;tigerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s jungle juiceâ&#x20AC;? containerâ&#x20AC;&#x201D;which is a two-gallon igloo water jug filled with half a handle of tequila plus lemonade, Squirt, and fruit juice. Kaufeldt gave the impression that heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also typically high on a few different drugs at any given time, at a festival. â&#x20AC;&#x153;A lot of what I do is like, cominâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; down off the stage, frickinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; smokin a joint, frickinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; doing some frickinâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; powders or something. When I go wild and wacky, my rule number one is donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fall off the stage.â&#x20AC;? Kaufeldt sees himself as a role model. (He claims he could have â&#x20AC;&#x153;90 percent funâ&#x20AC;? without drugs or alcohol, but chooses to indulge anyway.) He does Bikram yoga, and makes sure to stay hydrated and get enough rest in order to keep his energy up for dancing. After a full day of jungle juice-ing, he generally fills his cooler up with ice water the next day. u u u His â&#x20AC;&#x153;work hard, play hardâ&#x20AC;? lifestyle, as he puts it, can sometimes be too much for others who try to keep up with him. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It kind of sucks when you have friends that just definitely donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t take care of their bodies good,â&#x20AC;? he says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like, dude, you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t do as much drugs as Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m doing right now. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just too gnarly.â&#x20AC;? At Euphoric Bounce, I have the pleasure of catching up with Kaufeldtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mother, Martha, who lets Kaufeldt rent a room out by her garage and helps him shop online for his rip-away pants and Speedos. She tells me that the true origins of the White Tiger date pre-Burning Man, to an event called â&#x20AC;&#x153;Mister Soquel Highâ&#x20AC;?â&#x20AC;&#x201D;a pageant Kaufeldt participated in his senior year of high school. For the talent competition, he donned a wrestling singlet and performed goofy ribbon dancing, a la Will Ferrell in the movie Old School.

can’t be the only measuring stick. “I want to make a bumper sticker that says ‘artistically successful, financially disastrous,’” he says with a laugh. When it comes down to it, the guy just wants to throw one hell of a party. “People don’t care about the promoter. My job is to set up the ecosystem on stage, and get out of the way,” he says. “There is a community that is occurring for a couple of hours. People sometimes remember that for the rest of their lives. That’s the payoff.” Mountain Sol marks Horne’s return to the festival scene, which he first jumped into early in his career, after opening Blue Rhythm Records in Capitola, which quickly became a local reggae mecca. “That was our little niche. Bob had just played the Civic, and the reggae scene was just starting here,” he says, meaning Marley, of course. That led to the Backbeat Reggae Fest, which led to 1985’s Soul to Soul Santa Cruz, a multi-day festival at the Cocoanut Grove which featured James Brown, Al Green and Ray Charles, among others. Maceo Parker had just rejoined Brown’s band, and the connection turned out to be an important one—Parker would eventually play both the opening and closing shows of Horne’s iconic Santa Cruz club Palookaville. Horne is a musician himself— his band Special Fun is one of several local bands over the years that conquered the Santa Cruz scene, with great expectations of breaking nationally. They opened for the Dead just as the jam-band phenomenon was about to become a thing, and if the band itself hadn’t imploded just a couple of years before Phish exploded in the early ’90s, Horne still kinda thinks it could have been them. In any case, in 1994 he and his business partner Bruce Howard conceived of a club that would be altogether different from the typical bar-sales-driven venue. “I thought, ‘I want to build a musicians’ club, from a musician’s perspective. To actually get to build that dream was so exhilarating,” says Horne.
Palookaville hosted some 2,500 shows, some of which are now legendary—like Sublime’s last Santa Cruz show before Bradley Nowell died, which was mostly a solo Nowell show thanks to the fact that the rest of the band called eight minutes before show time to say they were “almost there”—in King City. The show is now a favorite bootleg among fans of the band. The range of acts that played Palookaville swung from Spearhead to Flaming Lips to Dave Matthews Band to Alkaline Trio. But the demands of filling the club night after night got to be too much. “The first three years, those were the Ricky Ricardo years. ‘Da club, da club!’ All I wanted to do was go to the club,” says Horne. “We were there for eight years, and we had fun for about six of them. The last two years were really hard on all of us. I’m so glad to have done it, and I’m so glad to have it out of my system.” He has great memories of bringing everyone from Fela Kuti (who arrived accompanied by half a dozen of his wives) to Johnny Cash (who told him ‘Thanks for the work, son’) to the Civic. But he always had a dream of starting an amphitheatre-type outdoor venue for hosting festivals. When he saw the success that the Redwood Mountain Faire was having with Roaring Camp recently, he was intrigued. And when Steven Wyman, co-owner of Boulder Creek Brewery, approached him about doing a festival there, he decided to go for it. “I thought ‘let’s just book all my favorite bands.’ It’s a soulful lineup of Santa Cruz tried and true. We’ll see if it works,” says Horne. Horne says he’s in a good place, and happy to be able to pick and choose the events he brings to Santa Cruz now based solely on their artistic merit. So what’s the difference between the Michael Horne that booked that audacious Soul to Soul Festival three decades ago, and the Michael Horne bringing Mountain Sol to Felton this weekend? “I’m older, balder and fatter,” he says. The Santa Cruz Mountain Sol Festival will be held Saturday, Aug. 9 and Sunday, Aug. 10 at Roaring Camp in Felton. For schedule and ticket info, go to santacruzmountainsol.com.

TEACHING THE TEACHERS Local yoga instructor Mark Stephens’ latest book, ‘Yoga Adjustments’ is meant to help instructors understand the principles of tactile cueing. PHOTO: JAMES WVINNER

Take a Breath
Mark Stephens wrote the book on yoga, literally BY ANNE-MARIE HARRISON
O
n average, full-time employees in the United States work about 1,700 hours a year. It’s no wonder, then, that many—20.4 million in 2012, and growing, according to the Yoga in America report—seek respite from the daily grind in yoga. “We live in an incredibly stressful society and one of the noted benefits of yoga is that it helps people reduce stress,” says Mark Stephens, renowned yoga instructor, author, and owner of
Santa Cruz Yoga. “I see it every day, people come into my classes from all kinds of different life circumstances and they walk out with a better feeling.” But it’s not just a magical remedy, as Stephens points out—it’s a physical activity that when done incorrectly can lead to serious injury. That’s why Stephens began writing textbook-style books on how to teach yoga. His latest publication, Yoga Adjustments, is the third in a series of step-by-step guides to ensure that instructors know exactly
what they’re doing to keep their students safe. “A lot happens where you’re really working at the edges of possibility of your bodies,” he says. “I think it’s important to understand how the body works, functional anatomy, body mechanics and physiology. It's a lot to take on as a yoga teacher and there aren’t a lot of resources out there to give guidance to teachers.” This is why Yoga Adjustments details the subtle hands-on cues that instructors can give their students—for example, guiding a
person with small movements to keep the joints around the hips, knees and lower back safe. But yoga has been around for hundreds of years, so why is it only becoming increasingly popular rather than fading with time? Because, besides the obvious health benefits—cardiovascular health, flexibility, and overall stress reduction—it’s evolving in ways that keep it exciting, says Stephens. “There’s all kinds of creativity happening in the yoga world, people blending it with various types of dance or martial arts, or other forms of fitness or meditation,” he says. “It’s entered something of a cultural mainstream, and in doing so it’s become more legitimate in the eyes of 20-something million Americans.” Yoga has found fitting partners in sports like rock-climbing and surfing. Even world-famous surfer Kelly Slater has publicly touted his love for yogiing. The advantage of combining the two, says Stephens, is that when you build tension in your muscles from one sport (like your upper body in surfing) you can release that pressure in yoga. For Stephens, the rapidly evolving yoga landscape has created a need for books that not only describe how to instruct and work with students, but also includes all lineages and traditions. That’s why he’s chosen to take on a “brush-stroke” of yoga philosophies for his next book, which he is currently working on. Teachers and students alike need to appreciate the intricacy of the human body, because when yoga is done correctly it can benefit anyone and everyone for one simple reason: “I think everyone can benefit from breathing way more deeply,” he said, “It’s probably one of the most profound things in terms of helping all of us be a little bit more awake, tuned in to our feelings and our needs and our ability to understand other people.” Stopping to smell the roses—or, in this case, the yoga mat—may sound suspiciously simple, but it’s also why so many people feel lighter after a session. “I think it’s about a sort of emotional self management,” says Stephens. “When you breathe really deeply, you feel more.”

FRIDAY 8/8 BAT BOY: THE MUSICAL It’s a story about an ugly duckling, an outcast, a freak—a story we all know that never ceases to warm the heart—and in this case, tickle the funny bone. The outcast in question is half-bat, half-boy, aptly named Bat Boy. In this kickstarter-funded rendition, Santa Cruz Performing Arts takes on the tale of Edgar, who tries to integrate into society, but just can’t kick the ol’ blood-sucking habit. Written by Keythe Farley and Brian Flemming with music and lyrics by Laurence O’Keefe, Bat Boy: The Musical is SCPA’s second showcase of the summer—something the whole family can sink their teeth into.

LOVE YOUR
LOCAL BAND JESSE AUTUMN
Most musicians can’t wait to get their songs into the studio. Jesse Autumn tries to avoid it altogether. In 2010, she released the Live EP, which featured live recordings of new material—including impassioned piano ballads like the Tori Amos-like “Welcome” and swelling pieces of piano pop, like “The Time-Jumper”— and her new album will also feature live takes rather than studio recordings. Having done studio albums in the past for her more harp-centered efforts, Autumn simply finds the live experience to be a better fit for creating and releasing her new material.
AUGUST 6-12, 2014 | GTWEEKLY.COM | SANTACRUZ.COM
“The energy I get from playing live is different,” she says. “I find it really exhilarating and challenging to do the recordings live. It makes the new stuff feel fresh, and I don’t want to have to wait to get it out until we find the right place to record.”
44
In general, Autumn seems to enjoy defying expectations. After all, why follow convention when you can gleefully thumb your nose at it? “I’m not a classical musician,” Autumn says. “A lot of people think I’m classical because I play the harp and piano, but I have more of a folk and pop background. My singer-songwriter stuff [is more like] chamber pop because they’re songs you would think of as singer-songwriter/pop kind of ballads, but the instruments we use are usually the cello, harp, piano, and/or violins.” Autumn will also be sharing the stage with local band Spurs, as well as Audiafauna’s Kelly Koval. BRIAN PALMER INFO: Jesse Autumn will perform at 7 p.m. Sunday, Aug. 10. Don Quixote’s, 6275 Highway 9, Felton. $10. 603-2294.

GREAT AMERICAN TAXI
INFO: 8:30 p.m. Moe's Alley, 1535 Commercial Way, Santa Cruz. $7/adv, $10/ door. 479-1854.
AMERICANA
There's a Great American Taxi graphic that looks a lot like the Captain America shield. But inside one of the rings, it reads, "Americana without borders." The design and sentiment nicely encompass the band's vibe. Yes, it's firmly rooted in the Americana sound, but the band also drifts easily into jam territory, and is definitely not a throwback to the days of twisted mustaches and cigar box guitars. Playing music that nods to the Band, the Grateful Dead, the Flying Burrito Brothers and more, this Denver-based outfit brings a tight-but-playful spirit to the roots scene. CAT JOHNSON INFO: 8 p.m. Don Quixote’s, 6275 Hwy. 9, Felton. $10/adv, $12/door. 603-2294.
REGGAE
ABYA YALA What makes Chile’s 11-piece Abya Yala such a gem in a sea of seasoned reggae bands is their passion for the planet. Featuring smooth vocals accompanied by perfectly placed beats, their Spanish sung lyrics speak to themes of environmentalism and the importance of connecting and uplifting others. This year saw the release of Day
THURSDAY 8/7 REGGAE-ROCK
RIBSY’S NICKEL Every Thursday in the summer, the Crow’s Nest throws a big beach barbecue, with music at 5:30 p.m., and a party that lasts until sunset. Local band Ribsy’s Nickel played it in July, and now they’ve been invited back. That’s no surprise, since they’re the perfect band for a beach party—they play a bit of rock, pop, punk, and bluegrass, but their true specialty is feel-good Cali-reggae. How better to celebrate a warm August Santa Cruz night than with some super catchy reggae grooves? AARON CARNES INFO: 5:30 p.m. The Crow’s Nest, 2218 E Cliff Drive, Santa Cruz. Free. 476-4560.
PSYCHOBILLY
THE CHOP TOPS The Chop Tops are one of the most active bands in the Santa Cruz scene— pompadours, leathers jackets, hot rods and all. They play, on average, a couple hundred
shows a year, and since they started back in 1995, that’s got to be a couple thousand shows. Their style is bare-bones punk-rock rockabilly, somewhere between the Stray Cats and the Cramps. The trio sports an electric guitar, drums and of course an upright bass, and has enough adrenaline to hold the interest of a punk crowd, but not so much that they’ll lose fans of the classic rockabilly sound. AC INFO: 8:30 p.m. The Catalyst Atrium, 1011 Pacific Ave., Santa Cruz. $10. 423-1338.
FRIDAY 8/8 JAZZ FUSION
SNARKY PUPPY Usually party bands and atmospheric fusion bands occupy very different spaces within the music universe—one gets things moving and the other provides music to drift away to. But Snarky Puppy, a cross-cultural band out of both Brooklyn and Dallas, manages to embrace the two worlds with grooves that have just enough smooth, lush instrumentation to keep the introspective crowd interested and just enough funky horns, shredding electric guitars and beats to keep hips swaying and heads rocking. CJ INFO: 8 p.m. & 10 p.m. Kuumbwa Jazz, 320-2 Cedar St., Santa Cruz. $25/adv, $30/door. 427-2227.

JAZZ/FUNK
KUCKAW! In the ’70s, jazz players were mixing elements of funk, Afrobeat, Latin music and just plain outthere avant-garde stuff into their tunes. Oakland instrumental six-piece Kuckaw! seems plucked right out of this time, except that they play a lot more funk than jazz. Usually they create some chill, hypnotic funk-jazz grooves, but every once in a while they venture out into space and show off their incredible, innovative chops with some bizarre, Ornette-Coleman-type free jazz. AC
RAP
JUICY J There is no denying that Juicy J has had a successful career. Between his time as a member of the chart-topping Three 6 Mafia and now as a full-time solo artist—though he began releasing solo albums back in 2002—he has created platinum- and gold-selling albums, as well as nabbing a 2006 Grammy Award for Best Original Song. His third solo album, 2013’s Stay Trippy, landed on a number of magazines’ Best Albums of 2013 lists, and he is putting the finishing touches on his forthcoming release, Pure THC: The Hustle Continues, rumored to be coming out in September. BRIAN PALMER INFO: 9 p.m. The Catalyst, 1011 Pacific Ave., Santa Cruz. $35/gen, $125/VIP. 423-1338.
REGGAE/SOUL
WOOSTER It is the end of an era for local favorites Wooster, as this will be their final show. Over the past seven years, this quintet has served up an engaging batch of lively sounds that has encompassed everything from Motown to reggae, from surf rock to hip-hop, with dashes of Latin rock, funk and soul tossed in to round things out. Their two albums—The Heights of Things and If All the Dew were Diamonds— possess obscene amounts of groovy material that is perfect for dancing the night away, and they have been responsible for starting many a party with their good-time vibes. Come send the band off in style. BP INFO: 9 p.m. Moe’s Alley, 1535 Commercial Way, Santa Cruz. $17/adv, $20/door. 479-1854.
JAM/ROCK
JERRY CELEBRATION BAND On Aug. 9, 1995, a ripple was felt in the music universe when Jerry Garcia, longtime guitarist and vocalist of the Grateful Dead, moved on to the great beyond. On Saturday, some of the Bay Area's finest Dead-inspired bands descend on Felton to celebrate the life and art of Garcia with three sets: one acoustic and two electric. Lending their talents to the event are members
of Slugs & Roses, the China Cats, Front Street, Mars Hotel, Cryptical, Live Dead, Play Live Dead, Workingman's Ed, the Dead Guise, Dedicated Maniacs, and more. I'm thinking long-form jams, group singalongs and a whole lot of Jerry stories will be had. CJ INFO: 8 p.m. Don Quixote’s, 6275 Hwy. 9, Felton. $10. 603-2294.

JAZZ GUITAR
JOHN PIZZARELLI QUARTET In a three-plus decades-long career, John Pizzarelli has firmly cemented his status as one of the premier jazz guitarists in the world. In addition to 40 live and studio albums of this own—some solo, some with his wife Jessica Molaskey and some with his father Bucky (also a jazz guitarist)—he has performed on record with Sir Paul McCartney and Rosemary Clooney, among others, played live with the Boston Pops Orchestra, and hosts an NPR program called “Radio Deluxe with John Pizzarelli.” The singer-guitarist’s most recent release is 2012’s Double Exposure, and his autobiography, World on a String: A Musical Memoir, came out in late 2012.

SATURDAY 8/9
In the early-1990s, the Northwest was the epicenter of alt-rock, thanks to grunge. Among the bands that were letting both their emotions and flannel shirt tails fly were the Seattle-based Presidents of the United States of America. But unlike many of their peers, this band sidestepped the overly emotional, preferring to sing silly pop-punk songs with a good dose of irreverence. Over 21 years and six albums there have been breakups, false starts and reunions, but all the while the band has retained the playful spirit that set it apart. The latest release, this year's Kudos to You!, sees the band still quirky, with songs including "Crappy Ghost," "Finger Monsters," and "Flea Versus Mite." CAT JOHNSON

FILM
SOUL MACHINE ‘Get On Up’ reveals James Brown, from his impoverished childhood and emotional firestorms to his greatest hits, though not in that order.
Feels Good
Chadwick Boseman kills as James Brown in spotty but fun ‘Get On Up’ LISA JENSEN would dare?); the soundtrack features mostly the recordings of Mr. Brown himself. But Boseman captures the volatility, on and offstage, of the entity we recognize as James Brown, the flamboyance, the fierce ambition, and the uncompromising determination to be treated with respect. (He also dances up a storm!) His performance is perfect for the impressionistic approach of director Tate Taylor (his last film was The Help), and screenwriters Jez Butterworth and John-Henry Butterworth. Instead of laying out the usual dreary rise-and-fall scenario, the filmmakers open with a kaleidoscope of moments—an iconic James Brown marching down a tunnel to a stage, a druggy Brown entering a business he owns with a rifle during a seminar, young James in his prime,
on a 1968 USO tour of Vietnam, cheering on his band as their army transport plane is practically shot out from under them. Only in bits and pieces sandwiched between such big moments does the backstory of the impoverished little boy growing up in the rural backwoods of Augusta, Georgia, begin to emerge. We see him abandoned first by his runaway mother (Viola Davis) fleeing an abusive husband, then by his father, who leaves him at the local house of pleasure to be raised by the sympathetic madam (Octavia Spencer). We see an encounter with a revivalist preacher (Clyde Jones) that will influence his later performing style. The gospel group, The Starlights, morph into grown-up James’ first back-up band, The Famous Flames.

t’s hard to get a movie biography right. If the subject is in show business, the problem becomes how to cherry-pick key moments from an entire life, let alone career highs and lows, then shoehorn them into an easily digestible two-hour-ish format while creating a story arc that makes sense, and an emotional thread that keeps viewers involved. The usual result is an all-too-predictable narrative journey from hungry youth to glitzy stardom to decline, where the characters onscreen never really come alive. But James Brown blazes to life in the movie bio Get On Up, partly because of the filmmakers’ smart, unorthodox storytelling, but mostly thanks to an incendiary performance by Chadwick Boseman. No, Boseman doesn’t do his own singing (who
Women and children come and go. A demo record is cut (“Please, Please, Please”), and James brings funk to the masses. Dan Aykroyd contributes some nice bits as the unlikely “old Jew” of a manager, Ben Bart, who sticks with James through good times and bad. But the film’s main emotional hook involves James and longtime friend and bandmate, Bobby Byrd (well-played by Nelsan Ellis). Here, they meet in a prison infirmary (teenage James is serving time for stealing a suit) after straightarrow Bobby, one of the Starlights, is injured during a performance for the inmates. After hearing James sing, Bobby not only brings him into the group, but into the Byrd household, the only family James has ever known. Through changing fortunes, Bobby remains James’head cheerleader, official BS-detector, and conscience. He weathers all of James’ emotional firestorms except the one that finally drives him away, providing closure for the finale, when James sings a make-up song to him from the stage. All of it plays out amid a revolving prism of James Brown stage entities (“Mr. Dynamite,” “The HardestWorking Man In Show Business,” “The Godfather of Soul”) and the performances that go with them (not to mention the hairstyles, from extreme pompadour to modified Afro to the long, side-swept pageboy he affected in his later years). In one tasty moment, James gets some sound advice from the ‘TuttiFrutti”-era Little Richard, played to fresh, flirty perfection by the scenestealing Brandon Smith. Now and then, James breaks out of a scene to speak directly to the movie audience, a stage-like device that helps keep all the balls of plot and incident spinning. Get On Up may be a bit too big and busy for its own good, but as a homage to a selfmade American R&B original (it was co-produced by lifelong fan Mick Jagger), it delivers the goods.

FILM NEW THIS WEEK THE HUNDRED-FOOT JOURNEY Culinary worlds collide in this foodie comedy when a displaced East Indian family decides to open up a spicy Indian eatery across the street from a tony Michelinstarred French restaurant in a picturesque village in the south of France.

Lasse Hallstrom (Chocolat; The Cider House Rules) directs. (PG) 122 minutes. Starts Friday. INTO THE STORM A small Midwestern town is ravaged by an onslaught of tornados in a single day in this thriller, as storm-chasers, amateur and professional, document the mounting destruction. Richard Armitage (Thorin, in The Hobbit movies), Sarah Wayne Callies, and Max Deacon star for director Steven Quale. (PG-13) 89 minutes. Starts Friday.
STEP UP: ALL IN Most of the stars from the previous installments of this dance franchise (except for Channing Tatum, of course) reunite for a dance showdown in Las Vegas.

TEENAGE MUTANT NINJA TURTLES In this mostly liveaction reboot of the popular comic book series, New York City is in the grip of evildoers when four masked outcast brothers

Recorded live at The O2 arena in London for broadcast to cinemas worldwide. At the Del Mar, one night only (Wednesday, August 6), 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.

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) 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 Kudos to Richard Linklater for such a refreshingly audacious film. Linklater had the simple, yet brilliant idea to shoot a scripted story over a period of 12 years, allowing his cast—including his child protagonists—to age naturally onscreen. Ellar Coltrane (in the central role) was 7 years old when the film started shooting in 2002, 18 when it wrapped last year, and he’s compulsively watchable throughout. It sounds like a stunt, but watching these characters grow up before our eyes (including adults Patricia Arquette and Ethan Hawke, both terrific, as the divorced parents), makes for a bold, moving, and utterly mesmerizing moviegoing experience. (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 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. 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. (PG13) 101 minutes. GET ON UP Reviewed this issue. (PG-13) 138 minutes. (***)—Lisa Jensen. GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY In this standalone 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. (PG13) 121 minutes. HERCULES Dwayne Johnson stars as the muscleman of Greek mythology in this revisionist take on the classical myth, adapted from the graphic novel by Steve Moore. Ian McShane, Rufus Sewell, Joseph Fiennes, Peter Mullan, and John Hurt co-star for director Brett Ratner (Rush Hour; X-Men: The Last Stand). (PG-13) 98 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 Bergès-Frisbey co-star. (R) 113 minutes. 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. Morgan Freeman co-stars. (R) 90 minutes.
A MOST WANTED MAN Philip Seymour Hoffman stars in this political thriller adapted from the John Le Carre novel about an illegal Muslim immigrant in Hamburg who gets caught up in the international war on terror. Rachel McAdams, Willem Dafoe, and Robin Wright co-star for director Anton Corbijn. (R) 122 minutes. PLANES: FIRE AND RESCUE The second installment of Disney’s Cars-in-the-sky franchise relocates hero Dusty (voice of Dane Cook) from the world of air-racing to a fleet of aerial firefighters protecting a national park. 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 this-near-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. 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.

FOOD & DRINK hike. And bring one of these nut and granola bars with you—prepackaged trail mix, if you will.
MONDAYS AT SOIF Yes, you do need to stop by on Mondays to feast on the live jazz by riff-meisters Hot Club Pacific, the fresh oysters, or perhaps even some pink bubbly and that rich rillettes-style ciccioli with crostini that has been knocking me out for the past two Mondays. I had mine with a glass of mineral-driven, light but not wimpy Sancerre. Perfect with the rich, unbearable lightness of tender pork cooked in its own sensuousness. Add a mini salad of tart baby arugula spiked with red peppers. You might find yourself making primal moaning sounds. Be discreet. This is a public place.

Top three snack bars, guilty pleasures at Soif, Santa Cruz Beer Week, and a Pop-Up breakfast BY CHRISTINA WATERS
T
hese three crunchy, chewy, fiber, nut and fruit-laced “bars” are blood-sugarraising packages of goodness that are totally portable and hence terrific for summer snacking. In order of my preference, let’s start with the mighty Odwalla chewy nut bar. The flavor I like best is the “sweet and salty almond” variety. It contains just about everything I crave (except for red wine)—dense with dry roasted almonds, organic oats and crisp brown rice all held together with brown rice syrup—this bar can replace lunch, if necessary,
and is the ultimate mid-afternoon energy-raiser. I pack them in my car, desk, and kitchen at all times. 220 calories and $1 on sale, which is when I stock up on them. The salty sweet flavor is the big attractor here—and the crunchy chewiness (again, that delicious texture tension) keeps my attention. OK, next let’s praise Kashi’s Honey Oat Flax “chewy granola bar” ($2). It’s smaller than the Odwalla model, but contains a mere 140 calories. Oats, wheat, barley, toasted salted almonds and enough honey to create contrast, yet not enough to cloy—this is a recent
discovery that I have now added to my “emergency” snack pantry. The last of my troika is a densely packed cranberry almond version of the Kind Plus bar. It claims to have lots of vitamins and antioxidants. It’s non-GMO, and it's available at airport Starbucks as well as CVS, Rite-Aid and other not necessarily “natural” food outlets. For $2+ this will stave off hunger and low blood sugar for hours. It gives your teeth lots to do. My mother now carries them in her purse when she travels. I think she probably eats them even when not traveling. It’s summer. Go out for a
Yes, this is Santa Cruz Beer Week. On Wednesday, Aug. 6, Assembly showcases a lineup from Discretion Brewing.

n a visit to Regale Winery and Vineyards in Los Gatos with a group of friends, I tasted an outstanding Zinfandel 2006, Dry Creek Valley ($45). Now here’s a wine to make your heart beat faster. Balanced and elegant, this not-toojammy Zin is total sensuality with its soft and spicy berry notes, crushed violets and light minerality. Earthy aromas of tobacco and coffee with touches of spice add to the warmth of this concentrated full-bodied wine. Pair it with red meat or enjoy it with appetizers and cheese. Made from 80-year-old vines, only 240 cases of this wine were produced, so if you want to treat yourself, you had better make it to Regale’s tasting room fast. Visiting Regale when it’s open on weekends is a wonderful experience, even though the tasting room can be very busy. If that’s the case, there is a huge expanse of perfectly manicured outdoor patio, complete with fountains, an herb garden, a bocce ball court, and even a woodfired oven for chilly days. With such beautiful landscaping and marvelous views, it’s not surprising that this Italian-style villa and gardens is a hot-spot destination for weddings and corporate events. 24040 Summit Road, Los Gatos (408) 353-2500. Regalewine.com. Tasting room is open noon to 5 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.
MUSIC IN THE COURTYARD There’s still time to take in a couple of Bargetto Winery’s fun-filled
music nights from 6-8 p.m. every Thursday until the end of August. With Bargetto’s wine for purchase by the glass and food by Erika’s Catering, enjoy the vibe on the winery’s creekside courtyard while catching the last rays of the summer sun. Visit bargetto.com for more information.
FARM TO TABLE DINNER The next Farm to Table dinner coming up at the beautiful Chaminade Resort & Spa is at 6 p.m. on Friday, Aug. 15. This one will feature Fiesta Farm and Alfaro Vineyards & Winery. Always served outdoors on the terrace, a farm to table dinner is a delightful, one-ofa-kind wining and dining experience where executive chef Kirsten Ponza provides culinary wonders, and local farmers and vintners delight your palate. Tickets are $80, plus tax and gratuity, for a five-course dinner and endless wine. Visit chaminade.com for more information.
OLIVER! AT CABRILLO STAGE The Cabrillo Stage production of the popular musical Oliver! has hit one out of the ballpark. From start to finish, the show is packed with wonderful acting, singing and dancing by a very capable cast. Most impressive are the extraordinarily talented children. Starting with the opening number of “Food, Glorious Food,” set in the cruel times of yesteryear’s workhouse, to the very end, they never missed a beat. Visit cabrillostage.com for tickets.

J
amie Connelly started cooking professionally when she was 13 years old at a doughnut shop. For the past 16 months, sheâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been running the deli and breakfast side of The Butteryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s kitchen, which added savory items to the menu eight years ago. Connelly says word about the long-established bakeryâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s sandwiches and salads is finally catching on. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s like our little baby that weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re trying to nourish into this nice, local community cafĂŠ,â&#x20AC;? she says.
fortunate here because of all of that stuff. We donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t believe in selling old stuff, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s got to go somewhere. We get all sorts of luxuries. Put on the pounds for bikini season.
GT: How late are you open?
Does it get hot in the kitchen?
Jamie Connelly: Seven. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re open 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., seven days a week. Since Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been here, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s shifted: business would die at 1:00, and now itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s busy until 5:30â&#x20AC;&#x201D;just as busy as it was in the morning.
Do you get to bring home cake?
Even when itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not hot outside. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s really small back there, and we pack it with people. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve ever been here during the busy times, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s always fresh on the deli side. If youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re going to get a salad or any of that stuff, it was made that morningâ&#x20AC;&#x201D; which means I have all these people, first thing in the morning, busting out food. So from the very beginning, everything gets turned on and starts heating up. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all of this stuff happening all at once. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s essentially five work stations, but Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got 10 people in there at all times. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s two people side by side all over, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the only way we can keep fresh contingency within the building.
Heck, ya! Actually, weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re very

A Croque Madame has asparagus. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the vegetarian version, and then a Croque Monsieur is ham, so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a feminine and masculine version of the croque I guess? A croque is an open-faced sandwich.

+ RISA’S STARS BY RISA D’ANGELES LEO SOLAR FESTIVAL FULL MOON Esoteric Astrology as news for week Aug. 6-13, 2014
We continue in Leo, the sign where humanity begins to recognize itself through creativity and love. Leo flows through the sun, absorbs the heart of the sun and streams into earth and her kingdoms. Love comes directly from Sirius to the heart of the sun into our hearts and minds. Combining the inner esoteric influences of Leo this month, we see great amounts of love and wisdom attempting to penetrate into the earth,
ARIES Mar21–Apr20 Do you feel as if you’re on a crossing, divided intensely between four ways, standing in the middle wondering which paths to conquer next? There are some past issues that need tending and that must be brought to a close before you will know how to proceed. They are being illumined for you now so look around, assess, ponder, pray and have the intention to complete all things unfinished. Then the next page of your life turns.
TAURUS Apr21–May21 Keep going into the future even though many pressures pull you back. The new realities must be brought forth through each of the signs. You, being Taurus, have the illumination needed for others to understand just what plans and purposes the future will bring. You have a model to construct, things to build, expansions to bring forth so that others will be saved. The God of the waters will help.
GEMINI May 22–June 20 Truly, you’re experiencing much duality; a confusing here and there-ness, unless you stand directly at center. Why? So you can see both sides, so you don’t choose yet (observe instead), so you can understand how to create a triangle of synthesis. There are two paths outlined for you. Which path is revealed through revelations, hints and symbols. Ponder upon, draw and visualize the following—the seven-pointed, six-pointed, five-pointed stars, a triangle and the cross. Combine them.

A duality is being presented to you in terms of your religious or spiritual practices. Perhaps there’s a fusion occurring between what you were taught and what you know or seek now. Are money issues of concern? Past practices must give way to new banking practices. Is your communication sharp, harsh and possibly critical? Be careful. You may not realize your tone of impatience. The homeopathic remedy aconite neutralizes impatience (an excess of electrical energy). Stay out of rainstorms.
LE0 Jul21–Aug22 Tend carefully to finances; ask for assistance if puzzled, embrace the future by banking locally and investing money in tangibles and goods that will sustain you for two years. Plan on others joining you. Remember the animals and their needs, too. Past memories may appear. It’s good to ask, “Did I love enough?” If not, there’s still time. A group offers two suggestions. Relationships fall sideways.
VIRGO Aug23–Sep22 There may be some ongoing self-criticism and your heart aches with these beliefs. It’s important to know these critical thoughts are not true. They’re simply old remnants from childhood. It’s good to turn toward words of praise, creating a journal of true identity that focuses upon self-praising while identifying gifts and abilities. This neutralizes mental and emotional illusions and distortions. Chiron, Neptune and Jupiter are attempting to purify all.
LIBRA Sep23–Oct22 Something profound, transformative, different and new will occur to your home situation. Or perhaps it’s
providing us with a great opportunity to radiate goodwill, the primary component needed for peace on earth. Sunday is the Leo solar festival at the time of the full moon. The New Group of World Servers will be calling to recognize their gifts so they can turn to the world and offer their gifts. This assists in restoring the mysteries on earth and helps to “seal the door where evil dwells.”
the foundations from which you live your life where the changes will occur. By autumn you’ll know what these are. In the meantime so much has shifted about with work and your professional life. Are you feeling somewhat out to sea? Are you doing what you love to do? Do you know what this is? Are you thinking about and able to travel? Tend with care and kindness to all relationships. They sustain, nourish and fortify you.
SCORPIO Oct23–Nov21 As your home life tumbles and bobs about here and there (expansion, then wounding, then a sense of dissolving) you could feel a bit of despair along with exhilaration. Both are occurring, along with a shift of friends (are you feeling somewhat alone?) and new information coming in about work and your professional life. Tend to money carefully. No excess expenditures on baubles. Things in matter are disappearing quickly. Do you have emergency supplies?
SAGITTARIUS Nov22–Dec20 It’s time for something new in terms of relationships. It’s also time to travel somewhere you’ve been before to assess it with new eyes. Do be aware of how much work you’ve done, how hard you worked and where you are today. In the next seven years your usual ways of thinking and interpreting will change into a profoundly new way of assessing the world. Your creativity alters too. Some of this is already occurring. As you hover forever at the razor’s edge, inch closer to the middle.
CAPRICORN Dec21–Jan20 Money. You stand between two themes. You have enough. You don’t have enough. In between is a wound. Perhaps you grew up with very little or perhaps with too much money. Either gave you a certain lens concerning money. But here we are today and all around us the monetary world as we’ve known it is collapsing. Don’t fret or be fearful. From the ashes emerge great opportunities. Ponder upon gifts and recognition of resources. What must you do now? You’ll come to true answers.
AQUARIUS Jan21–Feb18 There is and will be a breaking away from your usual ways of being. What’s normal will be upside down giving you time to assess who you are, what you value about yourself and how you would like to change. Increased social interactions lead to increased social successes. You are accomplishing life’s tasks on your own, in your own timing and rules. This is good. Finally, you’ve had the freedom to step into your dreams. Remain there.
PISCES Feb19–Mar20 Things feel very complex. And so you’re in a state of solitude and all of your expectations are surfacing, providing information previously not known. Clearly, you see that disappointments and sadnesses, those that lead to despair, are and were based upon unrealized hopes, dreams and wishes. These were not incorrect. Now you are aware of them. What will you do next? This question isn’t answerable yet. Keep observing and defining yourself.
