Situation #1: If you meet resistance or doubt, say this: “Ha! This diversion can’t slow me down, because I am in possession of an invisible magical sword!” And then brandish a few charismatic swipes of your sword to prove that you mean business. Situation #2: If angst and worry are preventing your allies from synchronizing their assets with yours, say this: “Begone, dread! For with the power of my wicked crazy songs, I am the destroyer of fear.” And then sing your wicked crazy songs. Situation #3: If you’re finding it hard to discern the difference between useless, ugly monsters and useful, beautiful monsters, say this: “I am a useful, beautiful monster!” Your kind will flock to your side.

“I am naughtiest of all,” wrote poet Emily Dickinson in a playful letter to Maggie Maher, dated October 1882. In accordance with the astrological omens, I authorize you to let that same declaration fly frequently from your own lips in the coming week. Feel free to invoke other variations on the theme of naughtiness, as well: “I am exploring the frontiers of naughtiness,” for example, or “You need to be naughtier” (said to a person you’d like to get naughty with), or “Being naughty is my current spiritual practice.”

TAURUS Apr20–May20 In her poem “Advice to Myself,” Louise Erdrich speaks of the human heart as “that place you don’t even think of cleaning out. That closet stuffed with savage mementos.” I invite you to use her observations as a prod, Taurus. Now is an excellent time to purge the savage mementos from your heart, and clean the whole place up as best as you can. You don’t have to get all OCD about it. There’s no need to scour and scrub until everything’s spotless. Even a half-hearted effort will set in motion promising transformations in your love life.

I hope you will learn more in the next eight months than you have ever before learned in a comparable period. I hope you will make a list of all the subjects you would love to study and all the skills you would love to master, and then devise a plan to gather the educational experiences with which you will reinvent yourself. I hope you will turn your curiosity on full-blast and go in quest of revelations and insights and epiphanies, smashing through the limits of your understanding as you explore the frontiers of sweet knowledge.

Three times a week, I take a hike along a rough path through an oak forest. I say it’s rough because it’s strewn with loose rocks. If I don’t survey the ground as I move, I’m constantly turning my ankles. Or at least that was the case until last week. For two days, with the help of a rake, I cleared many of those bothersome obstacles off the trail. It took several hours, but now the way is smoother. My eyes are free to enjoy the sights that aren’t so close to the ground. I recommend that you do similar work. Stop tolerating inconveniences and irritations that hobble you. Get your foundations in shape to serve you better.

SCORPIO Oct23–Nov21 "There’s a way not to be broken that takes brokenness to find it," writes Naomi Shihab Nye in her poem “Cinco de Mayo.” I suspect this describes your situation right now. The bad news is that you are feeling a bit broken. The good news is that this is a special kind of brokenness—a brokenness that contains a valuable secret you have never been ready to learn before now. Allow yourself to feel the full intensity of the brokenness, and you will discover a way to never be broken like this again.

SAGITTARIUS Nov22–Dec21 In a competitive game show on Japanese TV, 13 people had slabs of meat tied to their foreheads. They then poked their heads up from below, through holes in the floor of an elevated platform, where a hungry lizard was stalking around. But not one of the contestants stuck around when the lizard came to nibble the meat; they all ducked down out of their holes and fled to safety. That was probably wise, although it meant that the prize went unclaimed. Now I’m wondering, Sagittarius, about what might happen if a similar event were staged in your neighborhood. I suspect there’s a chance you would will yourself to stand calmly as the lizard feasted on the meat just inches from your eyes. As much as I admire that kind of poised courage, I want you to know that there are better ways to express it. Be on the lookout for noble challenges with goals that are truly worthy of you.

CAPRICORN Dec22–Jan19 Director Michael Bay makes big, loud, fast, melodramatic action films, including Armageddon, Pearl Harbor, and the four Transformers movies. The critics hate him, but he’s unfazed. “I make movies for teenage boys,” he says. “Oh, dear, what a crime,” he adds sarcastically. I love that stance. He knows what he’s good at, and makes no apologies for doing it. I recommend that you cop some of that attitude right now.

LE0 Jul23–Aug22

AQUARIUS Jan20–Feb18

American author Edgar Allan Poe (1809-1849) was ahead of his time. He created the genre of the detective story and mastered the art of Gothic horror tales. According to the Internet Movie Database, 240 films have referenced themes from his work. British writer Aldous Huxley wasn’t a fan of Poe, though. He said Poe was “too poetical—the equivalent of wearing a diamond ring on every finger.” Judging from the astrological omens, I suspect you may be at risk to lapse into a diamond-ring-on-every-finger phase yourself, Leo. While I am all in favor of you unveiling more of your radiant beauty, I’m hoping you won’t go too far. How about wearing diamond rings on just four of your fingers?

While walking in San Francisco, I passed the Pacific Heights Health Club. The sign out front said, “Birthday suits tailored here.” It was a witty reference to the idea that working out at a gym helps people get their naked bodies in good shape. I’d like to interpret the sign’s message in a different way, and apply it to you. The time is right for you to get back in touch with your raw, original self, and give it the care and the fuel and the treats it has been missing. Who did you start out to be? What does your soul’s blueprint say about who you must become? Home in on your source code and boost its signal.

VIRGO Aug23–Sep22 Republican Jody Hice is running for the U.S. House of Representatives in Georgia’s 10th Congressional District. To bolster his authority, he repeats quotes by revered figures from American history. One of his favorites has been a gem from the sixth U.S. President, John Quincy Adams: “If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.” The only problem is, those words were actually written by country singer Dolly Parton, not by Adams. Don’t get fooled by a comparable case of mistaken identity, Virgo. Be on the alert for unwarranted substitutions and problematic switcheroos. Be a staunch fact-checker. Insist on verification.

PISCES Feb19–Mar20 Horror novelist Stephen King has sold more than 350 million books. But when he was young and destitute, still honing his craft, his self-confidence was low. His breakthrough work was Carrie, about a teenage girl who develops telekinetic powers. But when he was first writing that manuscript on his old manual typewriter, he got so discouraged that he threw his first draft in the trashcan. Luckily for him, his wife retrieved it and convinced him to keep plugging away. Eventually he finished, and later sold the paperback rights for $400,000. I hope you have an ally who will go digging in your garbage to fish out the good stuff you unwisely discard. Or maybe this horoscope will convince you not to scrap it in the first place.

ONLINE COMMENTS RE: LOMA PRIETA EARTHQUAKE After the earthquake, which deeply affected Santa Cruz wineries, several of them joined together to donate one barrel

of the 1989 vintage Chardonnay to blend into a specially labeled wine, Epicenter Cuvee. The wine sold out quickly, and, later, a larger offering of 1989 Pinot Noir was bottled. Sales of the wines netted $15,000, which was presented to the Greater Santa Cruz Community Foundation and the Santa Cruz Red Cross for ongoing relief efforts. Labels featured the image of the actual seismograph, displaying the 6.9 Richter scale. — JUNE M. SMITH

DOCTOR SIRI Matt Riemann has developed an online platform that attempts to provide personalized

health insights for each user, using epigenetics.

Can epigenetics help us control our genes?

L

ike most mammals, human beings aren’t born with an individualized instructions for care manual. As a species studying itself, we’ve come to know an incredible amount about how our bodies and minds work—but we’re still making new discoveries every day in genetics and the human microbiome. Matt Riemann, founder of the Ultimate Human Foundation, a nonprofit organization devoted to transforming world health, believes we’re on the forefront of

a personalized health revolution. While it’s now apparent that the one-size-fits-all standards favored in models of nutrition and Recommended Daily Allowances are insufficient for a species so varied in size, shape and genetics, Reimann takes the sentiment to a more radical extreme: “You can actually control the way your genes are expressed, and that will determine who you are right now,” he says. Speaking in an impassioned, clipped Australian accent, the 30-something Riemann explains the

BY MARIA GRUSAUSKAS

emerging buzzword “epigenetics”: anything that acts on or outside of your genes to influence their expression. “So you think of all those genes like light switches you can flip on and off, the epigenetic factors are things that either make them switch on or off,” he says. Those factors include the foods you eat, exercise, stress, and the climate you live in. Everybody has heard of the person who smoked and drank every day and lived to be 100, says Reimann, and many of us have known someone in their early 30s who is fit and

active, but gets breast cancer. “How does that work? How is that fair? We’re really trying to help people understand that everything makes a difference to the way that your genes are expressed, and everything can affect your having cancer or not having cancer.” In 2007, Riemann, an avid surfer, biker and otherwise healthy young man, was diagnosed with familial amyloid polyneuropathy, a neurodegenerative and autoimmune disease triggered by a mutation of the TTR gene—a condition that left him in extreme pain, and with an estimated 10 years left to live. Empowered by the notion that his lifestyle and environment could help suppress his illness, Riemann began a ceaseless investigation of epigenetics. He moved to a warmer climate, and drastically changed his diet. “For me to have a lot of protein in my diet, because I was working out and doing what I was doing, meant that that excess protein would float around my body and calcify and end up in my spine, which is where I ended up having a lot of my intensive pain,” he says. He also nixed sugar, certain vegetables like Brussels sprouts, and changed his exercise routine. Riemann can’t change his genetic mutation, but he’s been able to lead an active life that is nearly symptom free, defying the trajectory of his illness, which predicted he’d be in a wheelchair by now. Just a few months ago, Riemann launched ph360.me, an online platform that calculates personalized recommendations by considering epigenetic influences on each user’s current state of health. The platform is the result of 10 years of research and collaboration with international researchers and progressive genomics companies like Pathway Genomics. It doesn’t sequence the gene or mutation, but measures a person’s phenotype— the current expression of their genes— based on ancestry, lifestyle, and actual physical characteristics, from eye, skin and hair color to length of bones. “We’re going to see a huge shift from a focus on the genotype toward a focus on the phenotype in the next few years,” says Riemann. “Right now it’s like a buzzword.

will be commonplace, and we’ll be questioning a lot of the genomics, and saying well, how is that relevant, unless we know how it’s expressed? Unless we look at the epigenetic factors that influence it, why do we care, because we can look at the factors that control it and change it in the future.” He’s equally excited about the future of technology as a tool for personalized health, in the form of

smart toilets that read one’s flora, smart refrigerators, contact lenses that read blood sugar levels for diabetics, and 3D printers that can plant new organs inside the human body. Matt Riemann will teach a course on “The Future of Personalized Health, Epigenetics and Advanced Functional Medicine” at Five Branches University on Oct. 25-27.

our DNA is a blueprint for you; its information determines everything from what your body looks like to which diseases you may be predisposed to contract. But your genetic code isn’t read verbatim. Gene expression can be influenced not just by altering DNA, but also by altering the molecular machines that package, read and transcribe it, as well as some environmental influences. That phenomenon forms the basis of epigenetics. Epigenetics is a young field. Over the past few years, scientists have teased out various clues about how gene expression is influenced by things other than gene sequence. One way that happens is by modifying histones, the protein structures that package DNA. If you modify a histone by adding a chemical group to it, its function changes. Scientists have known about this for a while. But no one had shown whether or not those histone changes could pass from parent cell to embryo and recur through cell division. Last week, researchers from UCSC and Indiana University, Bloomington, did just that. “There is an across-generation passage of histone marks from parent to embryo,” said UCSC

professor of molecular, cellular and developmental biology Susan Strome, who co-authored the study, which was published last week in the journal Science. “You can actually see histone marks being passed through division,” said Strome, “And the marks are staying on the same chromosomes they came in on.” Graduate student Laura Gaydos, who has since begun her postdoctoral research at Seattle’s Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, led the study. The project was simple; take some worms, tag a specifically modified histone, breed them with unmodified worms, and watch their genetic information travel from one cell generation to the next. The modified histone in this study resulted in gene repression. The researchers found that as a cell divided to produce two, the histone marks were replicated too. It didn’t matter if the marked histones came from an egg or sperm cell; the pattern of marked vs. unmarked histones persisted through subsequent generations. The exact mechanism by which histone marks are remembered remains a mystery, but Strome intends to look there next. The study holds important implications, as many organisms use the same marker to repress genes.

WHY NOT COMMONS? Newly finished Walnut Commons is a Santa Cruz experiment in cohousing

OCTOBER 8-14, 2014 | GTWEEKLY.COM | SANTACRUZ.COM

For Cecile Andrews, living at Santa Cruz’s new cohousing project Walnut Commons is a lot like being back in college. There are neighbors in close proximity, shared community meals, and generally always something happening. “There are people to talk to, and they're not just superficial conversations,” says Andrews, a longtime community activist and author of several books, including Living Room Revolution. “They’re ongoing conversations, particularly about community. Most people here are interested in the idea of community, but it has to be figured out: what is it, and how we do it.” Located on Walnut Avenue and Center Street downtown, Walnut Commons broke ground in March of 2013, and was completed this summer. At this point, all of the units have been purchased and the residents have started moving in. From the outside, it looks like any other condominium or apartment building. There are 19 units, a shared laundry facility and a patio space with tables, benches and a small herb garden. But while members own their own units with kitchen, bedroom and living areas, it’s far from your average apartment building. The building also has a shared kitchen, a community room, two guest rooms and a dining area that seats more than 30 people, and members agree to share community meals three times a week, take a turn cooking once a month, collaboratively build the community, and help to maintain the space. Many cohousing projects consist of standalone houses with shared common buildings and outdoor areas, but at Walnut Commons, everyone is in one building. It’s like having an entire well-connected neighborhood under one roof. Ownership of a unit also includes partial ownership of the common areas. Members pay Homeowner Association dues each month that cover the building insurance, yearly maintenance, utilities for the common areas and funds for the community’s reserve. City council requires all new

aced with the installment of huge steel utility poles towering over their neighborhoods, a band of Santa Cruz County residents has organized against a questionable change in infrastructure proposed by Pacific Gas & Electric Company. The plan in question would replace the existing wooden utility poles on a 7.1-mile stretch—between the Rob Roy substation in Aptos and the Green Valley substation in Watsonville—with tubular steel utility poles measuring 85 and 105 feet in height. The current wooden poles measure 40-45 feet and 60 feet in height. Known as the Santa Cruz 115 Kilovolt Reinforcement Project, and first proposed to the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) in January 2012, the plan would also install a brand-new 1.7-mile high-

voltage line of the same steel poles to portions of Cox Road and Freedom Boulevard. “Our goal really is to make sure that this project is appropriate, and it’s done in the way that has the least impact, and that it’s necessary,” says Dr. Thomas Barker, 30-year Aptos resident and founding member of Neighbors Organized to Protect Our Community (NOPOC) . With an aging power infrastructure in many portions of the county, the project, at first, appeared unquestionably necessary to Barker and other county residents when they received letters from PG&E at the end of 2012 alerting them of the plan. But when he and his neighbors started to dig deeper into the project’s details, the plan seemed more dubious than they first realized.

“It was about August of 2013 when one of my neighbors walked up my driveway and said ‘Do you know what they’re doing?’ and then I got wind of it,” says Barker. “The scope of the project was somewhat hidden, and PG&E wasn’t really trying too hard to inform us.” In the months following, Barker and other neighbors, like software architect and Aptos resident Marco Romanini, gathered further community support and formed the nonprofit NOPOC. While studying the project, and the steps taken by PG&E to have it swiftly approved by the CPUC, NOPOC found that PG&E’s initial assessment stated that the project would have little to no negative impact on the surrounding environment—but a full environmental impact >16

report (EIR), was never conducted for the project. Under the California Environmental Quality Act, an EIR is required for almost all construction projects in California, especially on the scale that PG&E proposed. “We were able to get about 500 public comments asking for an EIR,” says Romanini. “In January they said ‘yes, we will do the EIR.’” The need for an EIR on the project was also stressed by local policy makers like Second District County Supervisor Zach Friend. He and the other county supervisors adopted a resolution recommending that the CPUC conduct an EIR for the project. “I believed, and the board [of supervisors] agreed unanimously, that hundred-foot power poles through a rural area warrants full environmental review,” says Friend. Although local governments have no regulatory power over the actions of PG&E, they can still express the

concerns of their constituents to the CPUC, which holds ultimate power over PG&E and the future of the project, as Friend did in a letter he penned to the commission. “My goal was simply to say that it’s clear that this is not a popular project with a large segment of the residents there, and one of the only ways to obtain any sort of support is for it to be 100 percent transparent about the need for it, what it’s going to be, and what it’s not going to be. At this point, a large segment of the population in and around that area do not feel that they’ve had those questions answered, and I think that onus is on PG&E to provide answers,” Friend says. NOPOC’s primary question for PG&E regarding the project: why is it necessary? PG&E, who failed to respond to GT’s inquiry as of press time, did furnish NOPOC with a response to their question, via the CPUC. The utility company stated that the Santa Cruz

115 Kilovolt Reinforcement Project will increase reliability to the area, decrease the likelihood of possible future outages, and will establish an increased capacity for the growing power demand it anticipates in the area in coming years. On the surface, PG&E’s response appeared to be valid, but using moneys raised by community members, NOPOC was able to hire a lawyer and an independent power engineer to translate the company’s technical jargon, and found that the response was incomplete. “One of the things we said is, ‘how do you measure reliability?” If you’re saying that you’re not reliable now, show us.” PG&E failed to supply NOPOC with a measurable standard of reliability. In regard to the prevention of potential outages, PG&E did give some data about outages in the past 22 years, but did not provide the

NEWS BRIEFS HOLD THE FRIES It looks like a new McDonald’s, which the Watsonville City Council approved 6-0, won’t be coming to downtown Watsonville without a fight. Mayor Karina Cervantez, who was out of town for the meeting, has cited concerns about its conflict with downtown’s historic character and the city’s efforts to curb obesity. She isn’t the only one worried about the plan. Council candidate Jimmy Dutra has been sounding off against the plan—as has Digital NEST founder Jacob Martinez, who started a Facebook event called “Say No to Downtown McDonalds.” “We have a different vision of what downtown should be, and that is definitely not more fast food,” Martinez says. “We’re finally on this path of changing people’s perceptions

about the community.” More than 175 people are listed as attending for the Oct. 14 city council meeting, where opponents want to grill the Council on its recent vote. It’s unclear how many will show and how many are “attending” only in solidarity, but a petition against the plan has more than 500 signatures. Martinez is upset partly because the City Council talked big about health in 2010, when it passed the Healthy Eating Options Ordinance. The system it created requires that a restaurant have six health points on a city scoring system to get a building permit. McDonald’s, city planner Keith Boyle explained at a September meeting, has at least eight points for its fruit and vegetable selection, low-fat salad dressing, skim milk, staff training, calorie information, and free water. JACOB PIERCE

CAPSULE OF HEALTH An important piece of history will be sealed away for future generations on Oct. 11, when the Santa Cruz Community Health Center, formerly known as the Santa Cruz Women’s Health Clinic, buries a time capsule in their newly opened East Cliff Family Health Center. The Health Center has unique roots. In 1974, 14 UC Santa Cruz students founded the Health Center’s first iteration, called the Women’s Health Collective. The Collective was founded on feminist healthcare principals, meaning “equality, providing healthcare for anyone and everyone,” says board member Joan Burns. The Collective then grew into the Women’s Health Clinic, which treated women and children in their downtown location. A few years ago, with

the Affordable Care Act on the horizon, the clinic saw the need to expand. They now see all genders, changed their name to Santa Cruz Community Health Center and opened up their new site in East Cliff Village. “Feminism has really changed since the ’60s and ’70s, and it’s a much broader-based concept now,” says Burns. That unique history will be placed into the time capsule, via items such as documents from the past four decades, T-shirts, and a copy of the Affordable Care Act. The time capsule will be opened in 35 years, on the Clinic’s 75th anniversary. Putting the capsule’s contents together has offered a chance to reflect on where women’s health care used to be. “[I have learned] how much women really had to negotiate to get the kind of care that they needed,” says Burns.

projects to comply with its Green Building Program, so the new space was built to conserve water, energy, and material resources. It also has 29 bike parking spaces—eight more than it has for cars. With its proximity to downtown and the increase in urban density that Walnut Commons provides, the project is a small move in the direction of meeting the city’s Climate Action Plan goal of reducing local car trips by 10 percent by 2020. “This is really an ideal infill project,” thencouncilmember Ryan Coonerty told the Santa Cruz Weekly when Walnut Commons was in the planning stages. “It’s built at a location where they won’t generate much traffic, because they can walk to everything they need.” Walnut Commons is an experiment in living intentionally in community. But

Sandy Lansdale, chair of the membership marketing committee for Walnut Commons, explains that the shared vision does not necessarily mean close relationships between all members. “Not everybody is going to be your best friend,” she says, “but there’s a respect, and a mutual sense of giving everybody the benefit of the doubt and working toward the common good.” With origins in Denmark in the 1960s, there are now hundreds of cohousing communities around the world, and while there are guidelines and best practices for cohousing, each community is different and designed around its specific needs, interests, and strengths. In Santa Cruz County, there are two other cohousing projects, Coyote Crossing on the Westside and New Brighton Cohousing in Aptos, both of which have stable, long-term, inter-

generational communities in place. While some cohousing projects cater to seniors, Santa Cruz’s latest version is not a retirement community. Most of the members are over 50, although the plan, from the outset, was for the project to have an inter-generational community. Lansdale says, “I’m not ready to move into a retirement community.” Andrews adds with a laugh, “No one here is.” One criticism levied against cohousing in general is affordability: an owner buy-in model is an entry barrier for many people, and Walnut Commons is no exception. With prices starting around $400,000, the project was out of reach for many. Lansdale explains that the high price is due to the fact that the building, with its green materials and earthquake-safe construction, cost a reported $9 million to build, and it’s sitting on prime downtown real estate.

“This is not a cheap variety of cohousing,” she says. “We’re on a piece of land that is prime land, and the building itself had to be built really strong to the earthquake code.” The building, she explains, has 69 piers going deep into the ground. There are affordable cohousing projects out there though, and there’s a growing global movement to create more. A pioneering model is LILAC (Low Impact Living Affordable Community) in Leeds, England, which is the first affordable ecocohousing project in the U.K. Through a “mutual ownership scheme,” members pay a flat 35 percent of their income toward their housing. The Partnership for Affordable Cohousing, based in Amherst, Massachusettes, is a nonprofit working to promote and establish affordable cohousing throughout the U.S. With its collaborative ethos, cohousing challenges not just traditional notions of housing, but also traditional American values of self-sufficiency and independence. “This culture is a really isolated culture,” says Andrews, “It’s in our DNA. Americans are always self-reliant; we don’t need anybody, and that has led us astray.” Living in community requires active participation from its members. At Walnut Commons, decisions are made by consensus, which means that everyone has a chance to speak on an issue before a proposal is stated. If consensus is blocked and not obtained after several tries—which Lansdale explains could mean a couple of meetings—the group can fall back on voting. Andrews explains that consensus doesn’t mean everyone has to agree on everything all the time, but that every voice is important, even when members don’t reach total harmony on every issue. “Learning to work with consensus is something everybody should learn,” she says. “It may not work for everything, but that’s one of the learning tools of how do you make decisions. The big thing in consensus is everyone talking, listening and being heard.” Lansdale adds, “It’s about trying to draw out the wisdom of the group to make a stronger decision.” While Walnut Commons is still in its early stages, there’s a vision that the community will be a strong and supportive one that will find ways to integrate with the larger Santa Cruz community. “This is a laboratory,” says Andrews. “We’re trying this out, and we want to communicate it to the wider world.”

exact dates of the outages, which made it impossible for NOPOC to determine whether outages have been a consistent or sporadic problem. Placing the high voltage lines into the ground in anticipation of the growing power needs of the area also seemed like a sound argument until those at NOPOC discovered that the CPUC’s own data, which can be found on its website, actually shows a decrease in power consumption in the county in recent years. In 2006, Santa Cruz County used approximately 1,410 million kilowatt hours of electricity, and about 1,259 in 2012, which is the most recent data available to the public. Barker and Romanini feel that with the increasing use of alternative power sources like solar energy and more efficient appliances, demand for power will continue to decrease in the future, which makes them further question the motives of PG&E. But without clear, data-driven responses, they can only speculate on the utility company’s intentions. “When we as a community, as a state, hand this giant, for-profit corporation this opportunity, then they should be required to act in our interest,� says Barker. “It should be all about the citizens of California and the users of PG&E. I hope that’s the case, but I’m not convinced.� Right now, NOPOC, the CPUC and PG&E are all waiting for the draft EIR, which is being handled by consulting firm Panorama Environmental, and currently slated for release in November. The draft EIR will then be open to public comment for 45 days. Once the public comments and EIR are considered by the CPUC, a final EIR will be drafted and the CPUC ruling on the project—whether to move forward or step back and look at alternatives—is planned for spring 2015. Barker and Romanini hope that the EIR will finally give them the answers they’ve been asking for. “Once we understand the need, and it’s clear, and we understand the problem, then let’s find the best solution, not just a solution that may have huge impacts,� says Romanini.

So de Vo Vos decided to clim mb. When she got to the platfo fo orm, she looked out over the waaterr, and saw something that chang ged the course of her life: her first blue b whale. It was almost as long as a the 93-fo foot Ody dyssey. Thi was 2003, and This d the h ship hi was on o a voyage near Sri Lanka. Laater, the researchers came across a group up of six blue wh whales.

It shocked de Vos to see them feeding, because it went againstt fe whaat the Sri Lankan native had learned during her undergraduate years at the University of St.. at Andrews in Scotland: that at blue whales feed exclusively in polarr regions, wh where waters are rich with nut utrients and dense with krill. This was the first time de Vos had heard of them dining Vo in tropical waters. The sighting suggested to her that marine biologists had much to learn abou ut these uniqu que w whales. Since then, de Vos has ded dicaated her early career to studyin ng Srii Lanka’s native i giants. i Now a postdoctoral scholar at UCSC, her research suggests that this group of whales might be fragilee

and threaatened—and in a policy coup up, her activism has co onvinced the government of Sri Lan nka of the need to alter the rout utees of ships, which plow into th he whales far too often. “My sense is that at this populat ation was never very big, g and then it got hammered by illegal Soviet whaling w [in the 196 60s], and now is even smaller,” say ys Bernie Tershy hy, an adjunct profe fesssor at UCSC. “Asha’s work has tremendous potential to have an n imp mpact. I’m really optimistic.”

made it difficult to study these animals, known as pygmy blue whales. But some distinctions are clear: they are 15 feet smaller than Antarctic blue whales, they breed six months out of sync with their cousins elsewhere, and they call to one another using a unique dialect. This call signature allowed scientists to confirm that Sri Lanka’s blue whales don’t migrate to Antarctica, like other populations; acoustic monitors don’t detect the whales there. Further, de Vos showed that they behave differently. For example, they “fluke up,�—lift their tails high in the air before deep dives— more often than blue whales in other populations. Scientists most commonly spot the pygmy blue whales along Sri Lanka’s southern coast. Ship traffic

between Africa, the Middle East and Asia all converges there as well. The intense ocean commerce—some of the world’s busiest—must harm the whales, but de Vos doesn’t yet have firm numbers. It’s a hard problem to study because whales hit by ships may drift out to sea or sink. If carcasses do wash up on shore, they are often too decomposed for scientists to identify the cause of death. Despite these challenges, de Vos thinks it’s clear that ship strikes are a major threat. Data on strandings in California show that for every whale that washes up on shore after it is struck by a ship, at least 10 are lost at sea. And in Sri Lanka, strandings are common. People send de Vos photographs of stranded whales, and those wrapped around the bows of ships in

Pygmy blue whales are 15 feet smaller than Antartic blue whales, they breed six months out of sync with their cousins elsewhere, and they call to one another using a unique dialect. Sri Lanka’s harbors, and she has seen whale carcasses with obvious injuries from ships floating out in the ocean. She has also witnessed several close calls while observing the animals in the wild. Now, she is seeking to prove the impact on pygmy blue whale numbers—and to chart where the collisions occur. “The ships are like huge bowling balls,” de Vos says. “They just wipe out anything that is in their way.” To complicate matters, after Sri Lanka’s civil war ended, the government built a new port in the southern coastal city of Hambantota. “When that came up, I immediately knew it would cause a bigger problem for the whales because there would be ships closer to shore,” de Vos says. “Ships are traveling from Hambantota to Colombo, right where the whales are going to be.”

LANE CHANGES

At UCSC’s Coastal Conservation Action Lab, de Vos is now working to attach numbers to her suspicions. She collaborates with Tershy and marine biologist Don Croll on a photo identification system that will help her estimate how many blue whales call Sri Lanka’s waters home. She has also joined with scientists from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration to build habitat mod-

els that will allow her to predict where the whales usually linger. The work is based on successful research by biologists that compelled federal officials to shift shipping lanes off the coast of California in 2013. The new models will show how the shipping lanes overlap with blue whale habitat—and suggest how to minimize collisions. “Asha approached us with a problem that was tangible and had a real solution,” says Croll. “Most whales are being threatened by things like climate change, where it’s difficult to identify specific conservation actions that can make a difference. But Asha can.” Her work has gotten a lot of media attention, and it seems to have sparked reactions in high places. Her first victory came in 2010, when the Sri Lankan fisheries minister stated in one of the country’s newspapers that he would not change the shipping lanes because of the blue whales. “A lot of people would have been defeated, but I chose to take a positive spin. It was the first time they’d ever said the words ‘blue whales’ and ‘shipping’ in the same sentence,” de Vos explains. “It means that someone had prompted them to think.” In every interview de Vos has done since then, she has talked about ship strikes. She shows the photographs people send to her in all of her talks. And in May 2014, it paid off:

“I’d go to the government meetings, and they would ignore me because I was female and not senior enough. I’ll always be too young, and I’ll always be female. Now they’re finally starting to accept me.” - Asha de Vos the fisheries minister announced his intention to move the shipping lanes. Now, de Vos plans to work with the relevant government stakeholders in Sri Lanka to help determine where to place the new lanes and to understand the feasibility of such actions.

A PERSONAL CRUSADE

28

De Vos says she has loved whales for as long as she can remember. When she was 6 years old, she drew a Save-the-Whales poster that depicted the animals with teeth and red lips—she had an active imagination. Her passion for marine mammals led her to choose the University of St. Andrews; she wanted to work with the world-class researchers on staff there. Inspired by her experience on the Odyssey, de Vos started the Sri Lanka Blue Whale Project in 2009. One of the project’s goals is to build a pygmy blue whale photo ID database. With the help of an intern, de Vos compiles photos from whale-watching boats in Sri Lanka. They comb through the images to look for unique markings that identify individual whales. By combining what she learns with a future mark-recapture study, de Vos will be able to estimate the number of pygmy

blue whales in Sri Lankan waters. De Vos returns to the Indian Ocean for three months each year to do field work. Every time she spots a blue whale, she records the date and time, the location, and the weather conditions. Next, she uses an instrument called a conductivity, temperature and depth (CTD) recorder to measure the salinity and temperature at different depths nearby. This information, along with satellite data on chlorophyll concentrations, will get plugged into the habitat models de Vos is working on. The models will then compute where and when the blue whales are likely to be found. “These are the types of things we’re trying to put together as tools,” says de Vos. “We can combine what we learn from the models with the different types of usage in the areas the whales frequent—such as fishing, whale watching, and shipping—to figure out how to have the least amount of effect on the whales in the area.”

WINNING RESPECT

It has taken de Vos a long time to earn the respect of officials in Sri Lanka. Not only is she a female Sri Lankan marine scientist, she is the only person in the country who

focuses on scientific research related to marine mammals. “I remember when I finished my master’s degree and went back home, and even at that time I was the most qualified for this type of work in the country,” de Vos says. “I’d go to the government meetings, and they would ignore me because I was female and not senior enough. I’ll always be too young, and I’ll always be female. Now they’re finally starting to accept me.” The lack of resources in Sri Lanka has also stalled her work. Even finding a boat can be difficult. Once, visiting researchers from Duke University brought an echosounder to map krill density in the water. She spent months preparing for their visit, even having a special stainless steel mount built for the equipment on the vessel she had reserved. When she parked the boat after a test drive, she heard a suspicious gurgling sound: the boat was sinking. After losing a few days, she managed to find a close replacement, but the team had to use duct

tape and bungee cords to secure the expensive device. Measurements with the CTD recorder can also be challenging. On big research vessels, scientists lower instruments using a winch. Having no such luxury, de Vos raises and lowers the CTD more than 300 feet each way by hand. Sometimes, she does this at least 50 times a day. She plans on spending another year at UCSC before returning home for good. She hopes to start her own nonprofit organization, devoted to marine research that drives both conservation and educational outreach. She wants to inspire the next generation of marine biologists globally, but specifically in the developing world. “That’s where my heart is,” de Vos says. “The only reason I would live somewhere else is to scour this information together and take it back home. I want to develop the field in Sri Lanka. We have a lot of talented and passionate students, not just there but throughout the developing world, and people tend to overlook them.” Q

maturity. “Everything is electrified nowadays,” he told Dick Cavett in 1969. “The belief comes through electricity to the people, that’s why we play so loud, because it doesn’t actually hit through the eardrums. We are playing for our sound to go inside the soul of a person actually and see if they can awaken in their minds because there are so many sleeping people.” Clearly the transmission was received. You can hear it (and, yes, feel it, too) in the tone, texture and phrasing expressed by the tour’s featured performers now known for authentic Hendrixian stylings even in their own music. Hendrix’s influence can be seen as well in the left-handed swagger of Doyle Bramhall II, the sheer abandon of Kenny Wayne Shepherd or Jonny Lang, and the subtlety of overtone and feedback control masterfully demonstrated by Eric Johnson. The legacy of supernatural mystery embedded in the blues goes back as far as Robert Johnson. It is the DNA from which Hendrix re-animated the formative influences of Muddy Waters, Albert King and Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Buddy Guy. “This tour has been on the road with different casts,” says event promoter Michael Horne of Pulse Productions. “This particular one with Buddy Guy has great reviews. It will be a real treat to hear Buddy Guy play the music of Jimi Hendrix. There are some master blaster jams at the end. The spirit of Jimi Hendrix looms large in Santa Cruz, and this will be a great night to celebrate his memory.” Experience Hendrix will be presented at 8 p.m. Oct. 14 at the Santa Cruz Civic, 307 Church St., Santa Cruz, 420-5260, $45-$88.

was an original who infused the groove into groovy and made explicit in the electric guitar what had been implicit and untapped up until the Jimi Hendrix Experience hit the scene. Hendrix was equally an earthbound journeyman bluesman and an open channel to the psychedelic cosmos, as is unabashedly evident from the first bar of almost any Hendrix tune. He redefined the technical and tonal vocabulary of electric guitar, magically harnessing elements that were previously considered noise—distortion and feedback—plus whammy bar, wah-wah and massive Marshall wattage, trailblazing a quantum leap in the sonic dimensions of musicality “beyond the outskirts of infinity.” Hendrix had the mojo and it showed. His inspired phrases struck like lightning, leaving greats Eric Clapton and Jeff Beck quaking in their Beatle boots, spooked by a smoother hand. Beck described his reaction: “It was like a bomb blowing up in the right place. I went away thinking I’d better think of something else to do.” Live, Hendrix was bold as love, slithering in a frenzied passionate spectacle: sexual, sensitive, savage and supernatural. He humped, caressed, flipped and gnawed the Stratocaster—Isabella, his foxy lady— into musical ecstasy, contorting and distorting a wild thing of ferocious grace, ultimately sacrificing her to the muse at Monterey Pop Festival in a fiery release. Jimi’s fire was fueled by a deeper vision of the instrument and the power of music. He divined an “Electric Church” to accelerate spiritual

I JUST WASN’T MADE FOR THESE TIMES ‘Old soul’ Jeffrey Foucault performs at the Crepe Place Oct. 10.

OCTOBER 8-14, 2014 | GTWEEKLY.COM | SANTACRUZ.COM

Truth Be Told

42

Singer-songwriter Jeffrey Foucault fights against the musical grind, in search of authenticity BY CAT JOHNSON

J

effrey Foucault gets called an “old soul” a lot. Maybe it’s because the singersongwriter’s music sounds like it could have been written in the 1940s; maybe it’s because he looks kind of old-timey. Whatever it is, Foucault doesn’t pay too much attention to it. The way he sees it, one of these days he’ll be an old man, and then the “old soul thing” won’t mean anything. Getting down to the truth of music is, for him, far more important than labeling it. “I don’t even know how to talk about it anymore,” he says when

asked what inspires him musically. “At this point, the stuff that I really love feels true to me, and that’s about it. That could be a 17 year-old kid sitting on the street playing a cheap guitar. If it feels true, then it is true, and it’s probably worth hearing.” A veteran of the American roots circuit with nine albums under his belt, Foucault has spent many nights trying to connect with that truth in front of audiences. He says the danger of doing the same material every night is falling into a routine with it. “Standing up on stage, playing the same songs night after night,

can become too much like rote memorization,” he says. “You risk falling back on familiar techniques and tricks that have been successful in the past. It can be detrimental to your progress, and to the best parts of playing music live.” His solution? Add other musicians to the mix. “If you bring someone else, especially if that person is a great musician, it’s a conversation in real time,” Foucault says. “It’s always new, it’s never going to be the same thing. Even if you try to play it the same way,the variables are just

exponentially greater and more lively.” When collaborating this way, some nights can be “really sublime,” he says, while other can be bumpy as the musicians struggle to connect with each other or contend with less-thanperfect sound. But, for Foucault, it’s better than playing songs out of habit. “It lets you turn the wheel a little bit more,” he says. “Get deeper into what you’re doing.” For his current tour, Foucault has tapped his longtime drummer, Billy Conway, to accompany him. Conway, who played in the band Morphine, is what Foucault describes as “probably the finest musician I know,” and claims anyone who has played with Conway will say the same thing. Since his last solo album, 2011’s Horse Latitudes, Foucault has been busy. He collaborated with the award-winning poet Lisa Olstein on a musical project titled Cold Satellite, and he produced albums for several up-and-coming artists. He’s now putting the finishing touches on a new solo album; a stripped down, bluesy collection of songs that he says is the coolest thing he’s done. Singer/songwriter/producer Bo Ramsey, who has worked with some of the great Americana acts— including Lucinda Williams and Greg Brown—and also produced Foucault 2006 album, Ghost Repeater, plays electric guitar on the forthcoming album. His contributions are beautifully placed touches that nicely compliment Foucault’s lyrical subtlety and spacious arrangements. “At this point, the older Bo gets, the less he plays,” says Foucault. “He hears a lot of negative space, and is a really artful player.” This less-is-more aesthetic seems to suit Foucault just fine, both musically and in the down-home way he chooses to live his life. Hailing from Whitewater, Wisconsin, Foucault now lives in Western Massachusetts with his wife, singersongwriter Kris Delmhorst. They live in a small town with no big box stores and no fast food, which works just fine for this “old soul.” “It’s a little tiny town with a river through it,” he says. “That’s my spot for now.” Jeffrey Foucault will perform at 9 p.m. Friday, October 10, at the Crepe Place, 1134 Soquel Avenue, Santa Cruz. $12. 429-6994.

MUSIC member is Slick Mahony, whose George Michael beard, soulful howls and awkward dancing are totally over the top. “Sex Syrup” is the cream of Mahony’s contributions, because sexual breakfast metaphors! (“When I look at you baby, I think of breakfast/Pancakes, scrambled eggs, hash browns and cheese grits/ You got warm buns, let me hop in the middle/And I could have it taste somethin’ like a cheese McGriddle.”) The video’s iMovie transitions and wedding-video graphics make it anything but sexy. The best shot is the superimposed lady grooving on top of a plate of pancakes. 3. Did I Mention I Like To Dance (2011): The song is mainly an ’80s-breakdance-style tune about dancing, and the lyrics are pretty simple, but it’s one of their best videos. Flynt Flossy sings this one, and spends the entirety of the video dancing—both hysterically and kind of impressively. Seriously, dude’s got some moves.

O

ddball rap crew Turquoise Jeep are not Tim and Eric characters, though that might be hard to believe. With their use of obviously fake facial hair, wigs, bizarre sexual metaphors and deliberately terrible graphics, some of their videos look exactly like Tim and Eric segments, and draw on the same mix of absurd and uncomfortable humor. What makes the jokes even odder is just how talented everyone in the crew is musically. Their beats, flow, dance moves and singing are all solid. And they’ve managed to

build an entire career from their YouTube video channel. Some videos have over 12 million views—they’ve released albums and gone on successful tours as a result. The cherry on top of the whole Turquoise Jeep experience is the mystery surrounding the group. We are supposed to know they’re characters, but they haven’t been forthright about everyone’s actual identities. In honor of their upcoming Catalyst gig, we’ve written up their five best videos.

songs that is so close to sounding like a “serious” hyper-sexual radio club jam (“treat me like a pirate and give me that booty”), I’m surprised a rapper hasn’t already done it straightfaced. The video is just completely ridiculous, and the pirate theme is taken to the Nth degree with plenty of ship and ocean graphics (tiny versions of the members superimposed on the ships), treasure chests, and dancing ladies with eye patches, swords and telescopes.

5. Treat Me Like a Pirate (2013): This is one of those Turquoise Jeep

4. Sex Syrup (2010): Probably the most overtly satirical crew

1. Ohh Ahh Sound (2012): This is probably one of their least-watched videos—which is a shame, ’cause it’s their most ambitious. Instead of the traditional four-minute clip, this one’s an 11-and-a-half-minute short film with a couple of songs, some scenes in between, and a plot. In the video, Flynt Flossy realizes he lost his true love, and wants to get her back. (“I’m trying to wife you up/So I can love you down/I come across town/To hear that ooh ahh sound.”). It’s a little taste of what Turquoise Jeep can do if they set their sights on the big screen. Turquoise Jeep performs Tuesday, Oct. 14 at the Catalyst Atrium in Santa Cruz; 9 p.m., $17/$20.

2. Lemme Smang It (2011): This is not only Turquoise Jeep’s bestknown song, but the one where they invented a new word, “smang,” which has found its way into several of their songs. (“When you get here/ I’m not just gonna bang it/I’mma smash it too/so let’s just say I’m gonna smang it”). The straight-faced delivery of Yung Humma over this low-key club jammer makes it one of their best.

Watching bodies spin from silks, wires, cubes and hoops while yards off the earth’s surface is never short of thrilling. What looks like pure insanity in that awe-inspiring, yet entirely terrifying way is brought to Aerial Arts Santa Cruz with the new Aurora show, showcasing aerial feats by veteran gymnasts and aerialists performing a mix of ground acrobatics, contortion, contemporary dance alongside projectionmapped visuals. Fragility and seemingly superhuman strength come together in this organic expression of performance art for, as Artistic Director Allie Cooper calls it, “an alien and unexpected expression of a familiar emotion.” Info: 11 a.m. and 7 p.m. on Friday, Oct. 10, and 2 p.m. and 7 p.m. on Saturday, Oct. 11.

MUSIC CALENDAR STORM LARGE

LOVE YOUR

LOCAL BAND BABEWATCH

Most often, drinking and hanging out inspires very little besides more drinking and hanging out. For the band Babewatch, however, it inspired a song … about drinking and hanging out. “Guys Hanging Out” was the first song they ever wrote, and it was exactly what they were doing when they wrote it. After a handful of drunken practices, the band started playing drunken house parties, and eventually Santa Cruz clubs. Just recently, half of the band moved to the East Bay, and they’ve begun playing around the whole Bay Area. Basically, they’re trying to take the band seriously— without compromising their dedication to drinking and hanging out.

OCTOBER 8-14, 2014 | GTWEEKLY.COM | SANTACRUZ.COM

“Our music stays on the fun side of things, maybe less explicitly than ‘Guys Hanging Out.’ Maybe it’s just a little more refined. It’s still lighthearted,” says singer/guitarist Peter Kegler. “We’re not writing any ballads yet.”

52

Their early tunes leaned heavy on the surf vibe, but their newer stuff is more of a mixture between garage-rock and indie-rock. The twentysomething members of the band, who all met at UCSC, joke about their music being “dad rock,” but there’s a kernel of truth to it. When main songwriter Kegler was a kid, the bands that most inspired him were the rock, garage and psychedelic bands from the ‘60s and ‘70s—music from his dad’s record collection. Other members of Babewatch grew up listening to that music, too. “They wrote good songs back then. We all get together and go, ‘let’s do dad rock!’” Kegler says. “I guess it’s a deeper joke than I ever thought about.” AARON CARNES INFO: 9 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 11. Crepe Place, 1134 Soquel Ave., Santa Cruz. $8. 429-6994.

WEDNESDAY 10/8 ALTERNATIVE

THURSTON MOORE BAND/SEBADOH Two of the more notable acts to come out of the ’90s alternative scene were Sonic Youth and Sebadoh. Thurston Moore was Sonic Youth’s guitarist and one of their singers, but he has also carved out a solid solo career for himself, with his fourth solo album, The Best Day, scheduled for release later this month. Sebadoh has gotten a new lease on life in recent years, after starting in the mid-’80s. Taking an almost 15-year break between 1999’s The Sebadoh and 2013’s Defend Yourself, the band continues to show they can rock out with the best of them. BRIAN PALMER INFO: 8 p.m. The Catalyst, 1011 Pacific Ave., Santa Cruz. $18/adv, $20/door. 423-1338.

COUNTRY

JP HARRIS & THE TOUGH CHOICES Make no mistake about it, JP Harris plays country music. He shuns labels of “roots” and “Americana,”

preferring the straight-down-themiddle moniker that best describes his time-tested style. While contemporary country music has been infiltrated by the pop brigade, the Montgomery, Alabama-born Harris sticks to the classic bootshuffle-inducing sound passed down by Hank, Willie and Loretta. His band, the Tough Choices, is a capable outfit complete with pedal steel, two-stepping drums and twang-laced harmonies. CAT JOHNSON

It was released earlier this year, and on it they weave in synths and electronics, some pop, R&B, and rock influences, but more than all that, they’ve created a moodier and more dynamic-rich batch of songs.

INFO: 9 p.m. The Crepe Place, 1134 Soquel Ave., Santa Cruz. $10. 429-6994.

GYPSY FUNK

REGGAE

These guys just reek of awesomeness. Apart from having a clever name (read it backward), they make the sort of music that is absolutely impossible not to dance to. “Wild Man” will lead to hip-shaking and hand-clapping, and forget about not getting your groove on when they play the infectious “You Light Me Up.” Believe me, resistance is futile— this is good-time party music at its best. BP

SOUL MAJESTIC For more than a decade, locals Soul Majestic have jammed out some feel good roots-reggae tunes— emphasis on “roots.” Last year, however, they decided to forgo working with producers and fancy studios, and funded their fourth album, Setting the Tone, with a successful Kickstarter campaign, which they used primarily to build their own studio. Suddenly they could take their time and craft an album totally their own way.

BE OUR GUEST YELLE Yelle is a French-pop group that earned international attention with catchy tunes and great artistic sensibility. But beyond the polished exterior there's plenty to grab onto, with layers of beats, electronic flourishes and fist-pump-inducing grooves. Band members Yelle, GrandMarnier and Tepr have all cited a diverse batch of influences including Rage Against the Machine, Snoop Dogg, Prince, Madonna and minimal techno, so there's a lot going on in this group’s lineage.

STANLEY CLARKE QUARTET

ROOTS

There was a time when bass players released solo albums. The time was the ’70s, the scene was jazz-fusion, and Stanley Clarke was one of the very best. His solo funk, jazz, experimental record School Days is one of the best from this era. The music grooves, and his techniques are mind-boggling. His regular gig at the time was playing in Return to Forever, who were one of the biggest jazz-fusion bands of the ’70s. Through the years, Clarke has released a ton of records, mostly in the jazz realm. AC

WONAFEST The Coffee Zombie Collective can be a bunch of goofballs—they play bluegrass (sorta) covers of every artist imaginable, including Flaming Lips, NOFX, Madonna, LMFAO and a lot more.

It’s a benefit for the family of Mike “Wona” Warner, the brother-in-law of CZC’s lead singer Nate Lieby, who tragically lost his life in a car crash.

FILM

CAMEL BACKED Robyn Davidson (Mia Wasikowska) walked 1700 miles across the Australian outback with only

camels and her dog for company.

Hump Days OCTOBER 8-14, 2014 | GTWEEKLY.COM | SANTACRUZ.COM

Camels and landscapes shine in ‘Tracks,’ the true story of an outback trek BY RICHARD VON BUSACK

58

I

n an extremely good adaptation of Robyn Davidson’s 1976 memoir Tracks, director John Curran (The Painted Veil) flaws his work by trying to settle a question: why would a woman set out on a 1700-mile walk, over some of the harshest terrain on earth? (“Who did she think she was, a man?”) Davidson’s 1975 trek took more than half a year; she, her dog and four camels crossed the center of Australia, from Alice Springs to the Indian Ocean. It is fair to consider this walkabout in context of the mid-’70s feminist days-of-rage. Then, there was an even stronger and stupider backlash to common principles of women’s rights than you’ll see today. This

explains the heroine’s stiffness when dealing with helpful men. Every offer of aid felt like patronization. Robyn (Mia Wasikowska) mutters: “I can deal with pigs real easy, but nice people confound me.” The trip begins in the Outback we remember from Wake in Fright—sun exhaustion, raving men and cold welcomes. Robyn has come from the city to find someone who will train her in the art of breaking wild camels. She squats in a roofless burned-out house while she apprentices with a vicious German. Stymied by the lack of money for a trip, she’s introduced to a friend of a friend, Jack Fisher (Adam Driver of Girls). Jack is a National Geographic photographer who is sure he can help her raise the funds.

It’s an interesting relationship—if it counts as one. Davidson admitted that she succumbed to the real-life Jack but she later rejected him, in print, as a pest who kept putting stones in her path. (Apparently the real photographer, Rick Smolan, is now trying to Kickstart a book of his photos of this trip.) Thanks to the ease with which Wasikowska helps us under Robyn’s skin, we too get a stomach ache at the sight of Fisher’s avocado-green Land Rover. Because of the yappy, beaky photographer—the motor drive on his Nikon making mechanical smooching noises like an amorous robot—we long with Davidson to get out under the big skies. But Curran persists in softening

this woman. Constant flashbacking to childhood trauma explains why Davidson wanted to prove herself. The hardest ordeal Davidson went through on the trail is directed in authentic Blair Witch swayingflashlight horror. But Curran won’t stay in the moment: it’s just the gateway to another flashback. The desert silences aren’t smothered with narration—a bum director would have tried that first. This most ancient of ancient lands speaks for itself. Lyrical spots—the sudden appearance of a water-tank for a swim—contrasts with the ordeal, such as sand so hot Robyn has to make burlap booties for the youngest camel. Critic Manny Farber complained that the only interesting shape in Lawrence of Arabia was a camel. Curran, not David Lean, sold me on what interesting shapes camels have. They’re not used for comedy; they’re the comeliest camels ever seen. They have curved teeth like scimitars. They snarl and bray. When bulls go into rut, they unhinge their jaws sideways and slaver. Robyn learns a little from AfghanAustralian camel wrangler (played by John Flaus, apparently a wellknown academic and anarchist in Aus). Flaus is a master of the sidelong cowboy compliment, rivaling Sam Elliott himself: “You’re an odd girl, Robyn Davidson,” sounds like warm-hearted praise. He gives advice about encountering a wild bull camel in the Outback: “Don’t think, just shoot.” It’s another of many moments that makes Tracks, if not a western, a Southern. The role of Davidson—of lunar loneliness and strength--is the kind of experience that is bound to transform an already first-rate actress. We’ve already seen what Wasikowska was capable of in the masterpiece 2011 version of Jane Eyre. So it’s even more exciting to think of where she’ll go next. Particularly splendid is a spare scene of her welcome by an old rural couple (Edwin Hodgeman and Carol Burns); it epitomizes the film’s inherent intelligence and silence. TRACKS With Jack Fisher, Mia Wasikowska, and John Flaus. Directed by John Curran. Rated PG-13; 112 min. Opens Friday.

(R) 99 minutes. THE BOXTROLLS Alan Snow’s children’s book, Here Be Monsters, is the basis for this animated family film about quirky creatures who live beneath the streets of a quaint English town, and the human boy they’ve raised as their own (voice of Isaac Hempstead Wright, better known as Bran Stark on Game of Thrones), who comes to their aid when the town villain threatens their community. Ben Kingsley, Elle Fanning, Tracy Morgan and Simon Pegg contribute additional voices. Anthony Stacchi and Graham Annable direct. (PG) 96 minutes.

Network). Neil Patrick Harris and Tyler Perry co-star. (R) 145 minutes.

Toni Collette, Rosamund Pike, Stellan Skarsgard, Jean Reno, and Christopher Plummer co-star for director Peter Chelsom. (R) 114 minutes. THE MAZE RUNNER The dystopianfuture YA novel by James Dashner comes to the screen with Dylan O’Brien as a youth who finds himself one of 60 teenage boys imprisoned behind a gigantic maze. But their situation alters when a mysterious girl lands in their midst. Kaya Scodelario, Will Poulter, and Thomas BrodieSangster co-star for director Wes Ball. (PG-13) 113 minutes.

MY OLD LADY The plot revolves around an inherited Paris apartment with a well-entrenched female tenant who is not prepared to budge. But that’s just the

beginning in this often wry, but largely bittersweet dramatic comedy from Israel Horovitz, adapting and directing his own stage play. Horowitz pares the story down to essentials—a three-part chamber piece on loss, regret, and the collateral damage unthinkingly wrought by one generation on the next, expertly played by stars Kevin Kline, Maggie Smith, and Kristin Scott Thomas. (PG-13) 107 minutes. (***)—Lisa Jensen.

THE TRIP TO ITALY In this follow-up to The Trip (2011), Steve Coogan and Rob Brydon return as lightly fictionalized versions of themselves, comedian buddies this time on a luscious-looking culinary road trip to Italy. Orchestrated by director Michael Winterbottom, with a funny script largely improvised by its stars, the laughs are consistent, and the wistfulness of the framing story— touching as it does on such issues as age, talent, friendship, and mortality— is effectively done. Not to mention the gorgeous scenery and great-looking food, more than enough to inspire viewers to tag along. (Not rated) 108 minutes. (***)—Lisa Jensen. THIS IS WHERE I LEAVE YOU A typically dysfunctional family of grown siblings, spouses and in-laws gather for an uneasy shiva after the family patriarch passes on in this star-studded “dramadey” directed by Shawn Levy. Jason Bateman, Tina Fey, Jane Fonda, Adam Driver, and Rose Byrne star. (R) 103 minutes.

what an airport should look like, we thought, as we sat down for a seriously fresh-cooked breakfast at the terminal’s Lark Creek Inn eatery. Tons of space, spiffy stores, loads of workspace for laptops and comfortable couches to hang out on, this spacious terminal has it all. On the way back, when we had way too much time on our hands (it’s a long story), we sampled Virgin America’s Vino Volo concession. I figured it was too much to hope for—delicious food and wine worth drinking. But there it was, right in front of us. We started out with a flight of reds—a MontepulcianoSangiovese blend from Italy, a New Zealand Pinot Noir and a ShirazGrenache from South Africa—all delightful, and a fun way ($17) to wile away the time. My fresh kale salad arrived tossed with dried blueberries (a tartly intriguing alternative to dried cranberries), almonds and topped with roast chicken breast. The light dressing involved lemon and ginger. It was delicious. Ditto to the Cuban pulledpork taco Jack had ordered. The Vino Volo menu ranges from olives and cheese boards all the way up to pasta and entree salads. The stylish lunch provided yet another reason to fly Virgin America in the future.

Crop Bumper UCSC hosts 20th Fall Harvest Festival, plus impressive airport eats and an Olive Festival BY CHRISTINA WATERS

F

ew of us need much of an excuse to wander the atmospheric 30-acre organic farm up at UCSC. But if you need one, there’s the 20th annual Fall Harvest Festival coming up, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 12. This autumn festival comes fully loaded with live music—marimba, reggae, bluegrass—workshops, tours, produce sampling, and even hay rides. Come up and press apple cider, pick sunflowers, enter the

pie-baking contest and savor locally sourced treats. Of course you’ll also be able to explore the garden’s many herb varieties, and learn how to get your own garden ready for fall and winter. Admission is free for UCSC students, kids 12 and under, and members of the Friends of the UCSC Farm & Garden; general admission is $5, which is pretty cheap if you ask me. For directions to the UCSC Farm, visit casfs.ucsc.edu/index.html. Free parking will be available at the

Campus Facilities and Barn Theater parking lots, as well as a free shuttle. For more information call 459-3240 or email casfs@ucsc.edu.

If you love olive oil, you might consider heading down to Hollister on Saturday, Oct. 11 to enjoy an oleaginous gathering of growers, purveyors, and artisans known as the San Benito Olive Festival, where regional chefs will demonstrate delicious ways to use olive oil—from tapenade to puttanesca. The action happens at the old Bolado Park fairgrounds, eight miles south of Hollister, from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m., with music and plenty of demos, tastings, and samples of olives and oils from lots of local growers. Yes, there will be craft beers and regional wines for purchase, as well as bottled olive oils, of course. General admission for adults is $20; VIP admission, which grants access to the wine tasting area, is $35; and admission for children (5-12) is $10. Tickets are available online at Eventbrite.com.

ext to well-known Café Rustica and tucked just inside the LyonsHead Gallery is the lovely Twisted Roots Winery. It’s a unique place to visit, in that you can order food from Café Rustica to munch on in the winery’s courtyard, or meander around inside LyonsHead and check out all of the interesting artwork. And then there’s the wine tasting, of course. Winemaker Josh Ruiz is producing some excellent wines and he’ll be happy you’re there to try some. Ruiz, representing fellow partners in the business Ross Schmeidt and Mike Hodge, says the Twisted Roots label has been around only since 2005, but their grape-growing history dates back to 1918 when vineyards were planted in Lodi. Ruiz, a farmer by trade, realized he could make premium wine from these sustainably farmed, highquality grapes and he set about the task with passion. Ruiz now makes Chardonnay, Petite Sirah, Old Vine Zinfandel from the plantings of 1918—appropriately named “1918”— and Cabernet Sauvignon. I particularly enjoyed the 2011 Cabernet Sauvignon ($25 at the tasting room) with its dark, luscious fruit-laden tannins and sensuous aromas of warm brambleberry, black tea and clove. A mouthful of this well-made wine is top-flight— and you’re also drinking for a good cause, as a portion of the profits from every bottled sold are donated to the ALS Association to help fight Lou Gehrig’s disease. Twisted Roots Vineyard, 12 Del Fino Place, Carmel Valley, 831-594-8282.

Twistedrootsvineyard.com. Open noon to 5 p.m. Friday to Sunday.

PINO ALTO RESTAURANT The Pino Alto Restaurant is the place to visit if you want to try something a bit out of the ordinary. Located in the historic Sesnon House in Aptos, it’s where students in the culinary program at Cabrillo College practice their skills—so they go the extra mile with their creative preparations. The Pino Alto is open each semester and menus vary accordingly, so you’ll now find seasonal produce such as fennel, leeks and parsnips. Don’t miss the potato gnocchi with butternut squash if it’s still available. Lunch and dinner menus can be seen online, and there’s also a terrace menu for those wishing to sit outside—usually under heaters. Reservations can be made by visiting pinoaltorestaurant.org or on OpenTable.

MUSIC WITH A LATIN TWIST Sip on fine wines from Stockwell Cellars, enjoy food from Lifestyle Culinary Arts, and try delicious chocolate from Donnelly’s—all while taking in an afternoon of music featuring cellist Stephen Harrison of the Ives Quartet, and pianist John Orlando, professor in the music department at Cabrillo College. The Music with a Latin Twist event features the works of several composers, starting at 2 p.m. on Sunday, Oct. 12, and will be held at the Aptos home of John Orlando as part of the Distinguished Artists Concert & Lecture Series. Tickets are $50. Visit distinguishedartists. org for more information.

The Crepe Place

The history of a historic spot BY JACOB PIERCE

E

ight years after buying the Crepe Place with friend Eric Gifford, co-owner Adam Bergeron took a moment on a Thursday afternoon to reflect on the midtown eatery and show venue. GT sat down with Bergeron in the Crepe’s garden patio to talk about the restaurant’s vibes, food and music.

GT: What atmosphere do you go for out on the patio? Adam Bergeron: It’s mellow like your backyard is, but a nice backyard, where people wait on you.

I’m a big Cobb salad guy. Eric, his favorite crepe is Zorba the Greek. Add red pesto and chicken.

How often does Dan P. from the Bricks work here? He has one permanent shift per week, but when he’s in town, he can work as many as five days a week.

What’s the history of this building? It looks like something out of ‘Calamity Jane.’ This building was the Isaac Graham Distillery, which wasn’t actually a distillery. It was a restaurant. That was in the early ’70s. Then in the late ’70s, it became the Buffalo Trading

Do you have any vegan crepes? There’s lots of vegetarian and vegan options in the salad end of things but not in the crepes. They’ve got eggs in them. And butter.

Which is more fun, eating or listening to music? Well, you’ve got to do both, right? There’s plenty of time in the day to do both. I love this setting for that. It’s pretty unique—the fact that so many things happen in the same environment. There’s a baby shower happening here, and a rock concert happening there, and they’re all just coexisting. 1134 Soquel Ave., Santa Cruz, 429-6994

Do you have a favorite crepe?

Company. It was really a hippie situation. They were really busy. It was a classic Jewish deli with a bunch of Santa Cruz twists. They did a lot of big brunches, and a lot of the employees lived upstairs. It was a communal atmosphere. You’d wake up, go downstairs, and go to work. It was open from 1979 to 1989, and then they took the money and bought an actual commune in Oregon. Shortly after, the Crepe Place was here. [The building] started out as a house, in—I want to say—1880s, 1890s. Old Victorian—it’s such a great building. It’s old. It’s a little creaky.

+ RISA’S STARS BY RISA D’ANGELES TRUE HEROES AMIDST WEARY HUMANITY We have a complex week, beginning with a full moon lunar eclipse on Wednesday, Oct. 8. For three months prior and three months after, eclipses bring change to our lives. The lunar eclipse brings to a close something in our outer daily lives, its usefulness completed. We know what area of life will be affected when consulting our astrology charts. Wednesday’s eclipse, which overshadows Thursday, Friday and Saturday, is at 15 degrees Libra. Libra and Aries are especially influenced. During this time we also have Mercury retrograde in Libra and a potent Venus/Pluto/ Uranus T-square in the heavens. Venus is in Libra. It can signify our personal relationships, money and the world economy. Venus, combined with Pluto and Uranus brings forth urgent, surprising and transformative change. Let us watch the news for events. We already had the protests in Hong Kong demanding balance and stability in their

future economy and government. The forces of darkness do not have this on their agenda and will do all they can to destabilize humanity’s unified wishes. However, most of humanity, wearied of war, seeks to inaugurate a new era of harmony and cooperation. We must build the new era communities to bring this forth. The trend of human thinking and the heart is toward the cessation of conflict. This is an event of major importance and indicates an important turning point in human affairs. This trend is impulsed by a weariness of fighting wars, by recognizing the value in human accomplishment, and by a recognition that true greatness is expressed by those who see life itself, humanity, earth’s kingdoms and the entire world as one united, interrelated, cooperative and harmonized whole. They seek to educate humanity in the principles of harmony, goodwill and right relations.

ARIES Mar21–Apr20

LIBRA Sep23–Oct22

Assess if there are any needs you and/or a partner have that are hiding away someplace, only coming to life when there’s deep conflict. This is a good question to ask in all relationships, but especially now and with loved ones. Are there legal situations you must tend to? Carefully make plans for implementation either now or next month. Closure is needed.

Get your finances in order. Assess them carefully. Maybe you’ve been given incorrect financial information—this affects your emotions and health. Find the source of this, rely on your intuition, consult a professional for assistance, and don’t succumb to a situation or person that may hurt or confuse you. Something financial is hidden. You must bring it into the light of day.

Esoteric Astrology as news for week Oct. 8-14, 2014

TAURUS Apr21–May21

SCORPIO Oct23–Nov21

It’s time to teach others what you know. You’ve been hiding information until the right time, and soon you will need to shift, change and share. Soon, too, it will be time to leave your bunker. You cannot do what you’ve been doing alone for much longer. It’s not healthy. Do you ask others to help you? Ask what they need in return. This equality is important.

Suddenly your life assumes additional intensity of memories, and you’re unable to hide it. To ease any discomfort concerning this subtle yet concentrated power, force and energy, maintain consistent exercise, and then double it. There’s new self-identity and strength emerging. Set your sights on new communications and new financial resources. You’re a gold mine.

SAGITTARIUS Nov22–Dec20 The structure you’ve sought is finally transforming itself within your sphere of dedicated work. Discipline yourself in the right use of energy and time. Don’t waste these in emotional vicissitudes. Stay behind the scenes. Work on your own. Plan for future endeavors or do nothing at all. Don’t waste resources. New friends and groups of people will be searching for you. They bring balance and a resting place.

CANCER Jun21–Jul20

CAPRICORN Dec21–Jan20

You’re most likely tending to family. Are you sleeping enough? Your appetite may increase. Something slips into your life that makes you happier, creating a surging forth of determination and courage, along with a new sense of creativity. You’ll be inspired about how and where you live. Prepare for a new life to appear. Slowly become more organized.

Don’t take on extra tasks or exhaustion will affect your immune system. You’re capable of holding the entire world on your shoulders, but soon this becomes too heavy and burdensome. Create a manifestation list with your hoped-for goals and priorities, forming a magnet of energy around you. Delays are normal. Don’t fret. Give others specific tasks to do. They need them.

LE0 Jul21–Aug22

AQUARIUS Jan21–Feb18

Should you feel you cannot possibly leave home, then remain there. Tend to personal issues, things domestic like organizing, ordering, cleaning and clearing with equal time for research. Contact previous friends far away. Is there a misunderstanding to be explained? Care and tending to be offered? Is a move pending? An expanded self-identity is happening.

You understand humanity’s needs and sorrows, and thus you bring forth new ideas that sustain them, bringing forth balance and harmony (and fun). You have tremendous energy and potential to bring into form hopes, dreams and aspirations. Travel helps you. Focus on specific goals. It’s an important time for financial planning. Make and maintain new needed contacts.

VIRGO Aug23–Sep22

PISCES Feb19–Mar20

Make sure you’re getting enough vitamins and minerals, especially calcium and magnesium, along with adequate nutrition. You may not have an appetite. Drink more vegetable juices then. Monetary situations continue to unfold. Ideas concerning what for you is right economy enter your mind and you ponder upon what is of value. Have you started your many journals yet? Now is the time for your Mercury retro journal.

Piscean teachers, travelers, publishers, writers, adventurers and religious leaders are busy with schedules, plans, travel (careful!), cultural and religious aims and endeavors—attempting to inject harmony, change and balance into humanity’s daily life. At times these agendas can feel isolated and isolating. You need new direction and hope. Safety and trust are important. You will meet new people soon. Observe everything in silence.

She’s a 13 year-old, 13 pound Chihuahua. Her disposition is gentle and inquisitive. She likes to cuddle in your lap and take quiet naps in her crate. Don’t let her age fool you!

She came to POMDR after her guardian passed away. If you’d like to meet Daisy, fill out an online application.

1938 O U R 76 T H Y E A R

Occupation: Retired marketing executive Hobbies: Sailing, skiing, hiking, cooking Astrological Sign: Capricorn What do you like to cook? Mostly Mediterranean, many Greek dishes such as youvurlikia: meatballs rolled in parsley and cooked in a broth of avgolemeno. Also keftedes, spanakopita, moussaka, karidopita, and more. I make a good Bolognese ragu served with orzo. At Shopper’s, the strong point for me is the many exotic ingredients they carry. I think they’re the only store that carries ossobuco. They have a great variety of oils and vinegars, and three different types of feta. I only buy my cheeses here as they have the best selections of unusual cheeses. There are many good reasons to shop here.

Such as? Its family-owned and a community store, not a chain. It’s important to support local businesses, and Shopper’s depends on us. It also feels like an old-fashioned store that I grew up with. I think Shopper’s has the best selection of wines and spirits. Last week I bought a gin by Gina which is locally produced — it’s unbelievable! And their organic produce… I think the pricing is fair and it's one of the few stores where you can get fresh broccoli rabe. We buy pounds of fresh spinach weekly.

Does your granddaughter like coming to Shopper’s? Yes. The environment is familyfriendly and they always greet Maddie and she says, ‘hello.’ She gets a cookie from the butcher and she replies, ‘thank you.’ She’s learning manners. The butchers are just a blast and helpful as I’m always asking for special cuts of meat. They know when I ask for small loin lamb chops, I actually mean the larger ones! I’ve never met anyone here who wasn’t smiling and in a great mood, and they engage you. You don’t find that at other stores. It feels like home and a place for families. Shopper’s is the only place to shop.
