LOCAL TALK

What’s your take on the current housing situation in Santa Cruz? BY MATTHEW COLE SCOTT

It’s out of control, and will probably continue to be because of the university and Silicon Valley. It’s not the locals, it’s people from out of the area that drive prices up. JUDY EVANS

SANTA CRUZ | RETAIL SUPERVISOR

LIBRA Sep23–Oct22

You’re entering a time and space known as the Adlib Zone. In this territory, fertile chaos and inspirational uncertainty are freely available. Improvised formulas will generate stronger mojo than timeworn maxims. Creativity is de rigueur, and street smarts count for more than book-learning. May I offer some mottos to live by when “common sense” is inadequate? 1. Don’t be a slave to necessity. 2. Be as slippery as you can be and still maintain your integrity. 3. Don’t just question authority; be thrilled about every chance you get to also question habit, tradition, fashion, trendiness, apathy, and dogma.

Your mind says, “I need more room to move. I’ve got to feel free to experiment.” Your heart says, “I think maybe I need more commitment and certainty.” Your astrologer suggests, “Be a bit more skeptical about the dream lover who seems to be interfering with your efforts to bond with the Real Thing.” I’m not sure which of these three sources you should heed, Libra. Do you think it might somehow be possible to honor them all? I invite you to try.

TAURUS Apr20–May20

“Without your wound where would your power be?” asked writer Thornton Wilder. “The very angels themselves cannot persuade the wretched and blundering children on earth as can one human being broken on the wheels of living.” Let’s make that one of your ongoing meditations, Scorpio. I think the coming weeks will be an excellent time to come to a greater appreciation for your past losses. What capacities has your suffering given birth to? What failures have made you stronger? What crucial lessons and unexpected benefits have emerged from your sadness and madness?

By 1993, rock band Guns N’ Roses had released five successful albums. But on the way to record their next masterpiece, there were numerous delays and diversions. Band members feuded. Some were fired and others departed. Eventually, only one original member remained to bring the task to conclusion with the help of new musicians. The sixth album, Chinese Democracy, finally emerged in 2008. I’m seeing a similarity between Guns N’ Roses’ process and one of your ongoing projects, Taurus. The good news is that I think most of the hassles and delays are behind you, or will be if you act now. You’re primed to make a big push toward the finish line.

The anonymous blogger at Neurolove.me gives advice on how to love a Gemini: “Don’t get impatient with their distractibility. Always make time for great conversation. Be understanding when they’re moody. Help them move past their insecurities, and tell them it’s not their job to please everyone. Let them have space but never let them be lonely.” I endorse all that good counsel, and add this: “To love Geminis, listen to them attentively, and with expansive flexibility. Don’t try to force them to be consistent; encourage them to experiment at uniting their sometimes conflicting urges. As best as you can, express appreciation not just for the parts of them that are easy to love but also for the parts that are not yet ripe or charming.” Now feel free, Gemini, to show this horoscope to those whose affection you want.

CANCER Jun21–Jul22 You have recently been to the mountaintop, at least metaphorically. Right? You wandered out to the high frontier and ruminated on the state of your fate from the most expansive vista you could find. Right? You have questioned the limitations you had previously accepted, and you have weaned yourself from at least one of your devitalizing comforts, and you have explored certain possibilities that had been taboo. Right? So what comes next? Here’s what I suggest: Start building a new framework or structure or system that will incorporate all that you’ve learned during your break.

LE0 Jul23–Aug22 According to the international code of food standards, there are 13 possible sizes for an olive. They include large, extra large, jumbo, extra jumbo, giant, colossal, super colossal, mammoth, and super mammoth. If I had my way, Leo, you would apply this mindset to everything you do in the coming weeks. It’s time for you to think very big. You will thrive as you expand your mind, stretch your boundaries, increase your territory, amplify your self-expression, magnify your focus, and broaden your innocence.

“Half the troubles of this life can be traced to saying yes too quickly and not saying no soon enough,” proclaimed humorist Josh Billings. That’s an exaggeration made for comic effect, of course. (And I think that some of life’s troubles also come from saying no too much and not saying yes enough.) But for you, Virgo, Billings’ advice will be especially pertinent in the coming weeks. In fact, my hypothesis is that you will be able to keep your troubles to a minimum and boost your progress to a maximum by being frugal with yes and ample with no.

SCORPIO Oct23–Nov21

SAGITTARIUS Nov22–Dec21 “Creating is not magic but work,” says Kevin Ashton, author of the book “How to Fly a Horse: The Secret History of Creation, Invention, and Discovery.” In other words, inspiration is a relatively small part of the creative process. Over the long haul, the more important factors are self-discipline, organized thinking, hard work, and attention to detail. And yet inspiration isn’t irrelevant, either. Brainstorms and periodic leaps of insight can be highly useful. That’s a good reminder as you enter a phase when you’re likely to be more imaginative and original than usual. I expect creative excitement to be a regular visitor.

CAPRICORN Dec22–Jan19 The fictional detective Sherlock Holmes was a good Capricorn, born Jan. 6, 1854. In the course of Arthur Conan Doyle’s 60 stories about his life, he revealed his exceptional talent as an analytical thinker. His attention to details was essential to his success, and so was his expertise at gathering information. He did have a problem with addictive drugs, however. Morphine tempted him now and then, and cocaine more often, usually when he wasn’t feeling sufficiently challenged. Let this serve as a gentle warning, Capricorn. In the coming weeks, seek more relaxation and downtime than usual. Focus on recharging your psychic batteries. But please be sure that doesn’t cause you to get bored and then dabble with self-sabotaging stimuli.

AQUARIUS Jan20–Feb18 English is my first language. Years ago there was a time when I spoke a lot of French with my Parisian girlfriend, but my skill faded after we broke up. So I’m not bilingual in the usual sense. But I do have some mastery in the language of music, thanks to my career as a singer-songwriter. Having raised a daughter, I also learned to converse in the language of children. And I’ve remembered and worked with my nightly dreams every day for decades, so I speak the language of dreams. What about you, Aquarius? In the coming weeks, I bet you’ll be challenged to make more extensive use of one of your second languages. It’s time to be adaptable and resourceful in your approach to communication.

PISCES Feb19–Mar20 Do you need a reason to think sharper and work smarter and try harder? I’ll give you four reasons. 1. Because you’re finally ready to get healing for the inner saboteur who in the past has undermined your confidence. 2. Because you’re finally ready to see the objective truth about one of your self-doubts, which is that it’s a delusion. 3. Because you’re finally ready to stop blaming an adversary for a certain obstacle you face, which means the obstacle will become easier to overcome. 4. Because you’re finally ready to understand that in order to nurture and hone your ample creativity, you have to use it to improve your life on a regular basis.

MODERN OLDERHOOD Dementia Everyone is susceptible to the blues at night, from babies resisting sleep to tired adults working and raising children. But for folks with dementia, Often I talk to adult kids trying to assist Mom and Dad with decisions around selling the family home because it is too big, too many stairs, too much maintenance, or it’s just time to simplify.

Floor Model Sale Hurry for the Best Selection!

As we are talking they tell me their folks just are not “acting right.” Early dementia often looks like depression, irritability, or even aggression before it spins into hallucinations or a sort of collapse of the ability to navigate time. If you notice your parent is having trouble at night, they may have Sundowners Syndrome. It’s possible your loved one’s thoughts are dwelling on days gone by and how life has changed and this melancholy increases with dusk. Alzheimer’s patients get particularly irritable at this time, so complex decision making is best addressed in the morning.

The most challenging part of this dance is keeping in mind that your parent is not fully able to navigate thoughts, time, decisions, or emotions anymore. They will appear to, at some level, just be cranky, unreasonable, emotional, or forgetful. But it takes patience and practice to accept that some of the fantasy they spin is real to them, and to repeat and repeat answers to questions big and small throughout the day. Try to remember, they are not being lazy or slow, they have lost a certain functions of the brain and are struggling. Even as they tell

NEWS WHEN A FIGHT IS NOT A FIGHT Hate crime at UCSC reveals larger issues

MARCH 18-24, 2015 | GTWEEKLY.COM | SANTACRUZ.COM

BY ANNE-MARIE HARRISON

When UCSC students shut down traffic on Highway 17 in early March, media coverage was intense. But when a gay male student was brutalized at Kresge College on Feb. 7—leaving him with a dislocated hip, a fractured jaw, broken knuckles, a shattered wrist, and a concussion—it slipped by without much discussion. A few days after the attack, the UCSC Police Department sent out a crime bulletin via email which mentioned the “fight,” adding that two men were arrested the following day on charges of battery, obstructing a police officer, and being drunk in public. The bulletin reported that “one or more of the victims belonged to a protected classification, as listed in the California Hate Crime Statutes.” Many students were frustrated that the bulletin did not specify what was obvious to those who knew the details of the attack—that the student was beaten because he is gay. “Making it sound like a two-sided fight when it was really an attack takes away from what really happened that night,” says Jamie Epstein, a third-year student at UCSC who is the education coordinator for the Cantú Queer Center and leads workshops on sex, sexuality, and gender. “We have a right to know when there is violence happening to our community.” Epstein says the university should have expressed unreserved support for the queer community after the incident. Instead, she feels the email’s language has further distanced them. UCSC Police Chief Nader Oweis says the wording was deliberate to protect the victim. Further details about the hate crime and its perpetrators cannot be released, he says, citing an ongoing investigation. The university needs to be proactive rather than reactive, says Epstein, which is why she and other students created a petition demanding more bathrooms for transgender students (UCSC currently has 40 all-gender restrooms); free self-defense workshops; mandatory diversity training for all current and future staff, faculty, administrators, and students; and queer-specialist staff members with at least one trans-specialist. “If we didn’t do this, no one would stop and really think about it—that’s what really terrified us,” says Epstein of the petition, which currently >14 has 2,123 supporters.

Prepped for Launch

Internship ecosystem primes new local tech talent BY CAT JOHNSON

everal days a week, Gregory Ruffin goes downtown to NextSpace, where he sits next to his mentor, Gabriel Kopito, a web developer at local web company Launch Brigade, which specializes in building websites. Under Kopito’s supervision, Ruffin is creating an online automatic billing system. A participant in Launch Brigade’s internship program, the 22-year-old computer science student from Atlanta is learning firsthand how real-world web development works. “I know coding and programming from school, but I don’t have a practical use for it,” says Ruffin, a Cabrillo College student. “If you asked me to do something, I don’t

know if I could go out and make that project.” Launch Brigade’s goal for its internship program is to bridge the gap between what computer science students learn in school and the practical skills they need to work in the industry. Launch Brigade and its sister company, Scratch Space, set interns up working on website design or development projects for nonprofits and community organizations. At the end of the 120-hour unpaid internship, if the intern works well with the team and there is enough work to employ them, Launch Brigade brings them on. Chris Miller, president and CEO of Scratch Space and Launch Brigade,

sees it as a win for everyone involved: community organizations get web products, the intern gets trained on real-world projects, and the company gets to know the intern—watching him or her closely to see if they’re a good fit for the team. If they are, they’ve already been pre-trained in how to work at the company. Miller says the interns who don’t ultimately join the Launch Brigade team leave with practical skills and a better understanding of the industry that will serve them elsewhere. Over 30 interns have gone through Launch Brigade’s internship program. Of its current staff of 10, all but two went through its internship program. Miller started the program because he couldn’t find the local >12

NOT A FIGHT <10

Epstein was also involved in a campus pilot survey which asked how members of the queer community felt on campus. The results showed that they do not feel safe, but when the students presented their findings to the UCSC administration more than a year ago with recommendations mirroring those of the petition, they didn’t see much of a response. Epstein says the students are trying to get permission from some participants to disclose their responses before releasing the findings to the public. While Epstein was shocked by the Kresge beating, she’s no stranger to queerphobic violence; she remembers being at an LGBTQfriendly party last year when some people walked through off the street, saying, “There’s just a bunch of faggots and dykes here.” According to Epstein, when a man at the party asked them to leave, they assaulted him, sending him to the hospital. According to the most recent report, the last hate crime to take place at UCSC was in 2013, a “vandalism incident characterized by sexual orientation bias.” In 2011, there was one case of intimidation on the grounds of

sexual orientation, but there were also three on-campus vandalism incidents characterised by racial bias, three by ethnic bias, one by religious bias and one by sexual orientation bias. UCSC’s spokesperson Scott HernandezJason says that the university regularly re-evaluates its diversity programming. “I think it’s a first step to have these discussions, to learn a little bit more about what [students’] concerns are, and what we can do to address them. We very much want to have a campus that feels inclusive and welcoming, where students feel safe,” says HernandezJason. “Something like this does not typically happen at UC Santa Cruz, so I think everyone was a bit shocked by it.”

COMMUNICATION BREAKDOWN Hate crimes are merely symptoms of a larger and more insidious problem—biases ingrained in society, says Christie McCullen, a Ph.D candidate at UCSC. Part of the problem is that people do, say, or think things every day without realizing that they reinforce prejudices, she says. McCullen has been conducting research on how race is discussed in classroom settings

and how history shapes that narrative. She says people are often more focused on being politically correct than on understanding the history and power dynamics behind the words they know to avoid, thus creating a “a culture of silence.” “I think too often there’s not enough listening and there’s not enough critical reflection that happens in that, especially for people who are not affected,” says McCullen, also a sociology graduate student instructor. That’s how “microaggressions” fuel subtler but equally damaging racism and queerphobia in Santa Cruz, says Jocqui Smollett. Microaggressions are unintended discrimination through socially accepted behavior—the comments that people defend with “it’s not a big deal”—but still contribute to a hollow tolerance that isn’t based on true understanding. Smollett, a UCSC fourth-year African Black Student Alliance member, says he’s experienced microaggressions and blatant racism on campus, including an incident where a student repeatedly asked if he had eaten cornbread and watermelon at the dining hall—laughing in a way that made it “apparent that it was racially charged.” At the time, Smollett was a Resident Assistant (RA) and documented the same

student three separate times for the comments, but no disciplinary action followed. Smollett says that although mandatory diversity training is necessary, even small tweaks in language—including in emails from university administrators—make a huge difference. “The email about the Kresge incident was extremely vague,” he says, “and if you compare that with the email that they sent out last week about the student protests—they were very direct on their point that they were not supporting what the protesters were doing.” Without clarity, the mentality of tolerance gets turned into something that looks a lot like fetishizing identities—like how everyone wants a “gay best friend” and a piece of hip-hop culture, he says. “No one wants to understand the struggle of being gay, or being lesbian. It’s the same thing with everyone wants to be black, but no one wants to be black,” says Smollett. “A lot of problems with diversity training and ally training is that they don’t go deep enough, and their training is tailored around making the ally feel comfortable. This life is not comfortable—our lived experiences are not comfortable—so for you to be a true ally, you have to be willing to evolve with us.”

It’s getting a lot healthier around here. We’re committed to keeping you healthy. That’s why we’ve expanded our pediatric services to include two new doctors and a nurse specialist.

MUSIC

ON THE BANDSTAND Red Baraat plays Moe’s Alley on Sunday, March 22.

Sensory Explosion MARCH 18-24, 2015 | GTWEEKLY.COM | SANTACRUZ.COM

Red Baraat incorporates three drummers, four horns, a guitarist and well-placed electronic effects BY CAT JOHNSON

he inspiration for the band Red Baraat stretches back decades to when, on a trip to India, founder Sunny Jain first saw an Indian brass band. He was only five years old at the time, but the experience stayed with him. When it came time to create his own brass band, however, Jain didn’t stick to traditional parameters of instrumentation or style. “I wasn’t trying to just replicate an Indian brass band,” he says. “I wanted it to be a reflection of who I am as an Indian American, and also all the other guys in the band. While [the Indian brass band] was a seed of inspiration, I told the guys, ‘I want to be open to whatever ideas you might

have and whatever sound you want to bring to the band as well.’” The resulting sound is something special. With three drummers, four horn players, a recently added guitarist, and some well-placed electronic effects, the Brooklynbased band is a full-sensory, multicultural experience that makes staying seated a challenge. Jain is generally up front playing a double-headed Indian drum called a dhol, but that wasn’t always the case. An acclaimed jazz drummer who has worked with Norah Jones, Q-Tip, Peter Gabriel and others, Jain originally alternated between a drum set and the dhol, moving back and forth from the front of the stage to

the back. But leading a band from behind has its challenges and Jain eventually asked one of the other drummers if he would stay on the drum kit so Jain could stay on the dhol. “I enjoy the liberation and freedom of having my legs free, and standing up, and I can still play,” he says. “I can bounce around and even drop out sometimes because there are two other drummers.” Red Baraat doesn’t have a designated frontman. This has always been the vision for the band—that various personalities can come forward on different songs. While Jain writes the majority of the music, the band helps to tighten it

up, bring in new elements, and make changes. All that is just to get the foundational composition down; once Red Baraat takes to the stage, the songs change and evolve. “Things take shape on the bandstand,” says Jain, explaining that in any given moment, the band will decide to stretch a song out, or open it up to improvisation just to see where it goes. “Sometimes we realize, ‘Hey, that was cool, let’s just do that,’” he says. “Once you get onstage, things come together a lot quicker—there’s more focus and you’re feeding off energy from the audience.” Jain equates this open style to jazz bands that play the same tunes night after night, but play them differently each time. After six years of playing together, Red Baraat embraces the approach and challenge. “[The songs] travel differently and are interpreted differently from gig to gig,” he says. “We try to do that so we’re not dialing it in, and getting bored ourselves, and feeling [boredom] from the audience as well.” On the new album, Gaadi of Truth, Red Baraat touches on stereotypes the members face, including being singled out by airport TSA and being inexplicably pulled over by police. On the title track—one of the few non-instrumental tracks—the lyrics recall the band being on the road and contending with racism: We feel a lot of love and see it on your faces / But sometimes we confront fear and hatred in certain places. In addition to taking on social and cultural issues, Red Baraat’s music joyously balances the ancient and the modern. Jain doesn’t consciously try to do this—it’s just what naturally occurs when he draws from his own life, experiences and emotions. “Everything is thrown into the pot,” he says. “Whether it’s the Indian influence, the rock influence, the Motown influence, the jazz influence—whatever music is in there … then it’s there for full use.” Red Baraat will perform at 8:30 p.m. on Sunday, March 22 at Moe’s Alley, 1535 Commercial Way, Santa Cruz. $14/adv, $18/ door. 479-1854.

for a while, this is no small thing; the Chop Tops predate most of the local bands floating around today and are a reminder of a different Santa Cruz era, when pompadours, massively-cuffed jeans, and hotrod tattoos were a common sight on Pacific Avenue. Playing a blend of surf, psychobilly, punk and rockabilly, the band contributed to a thriving rockabilly scene and inspired countless other throwback rock and rollers. CJ

With names such as Krayzie Bone, Layzie Bone, Bizzy Bone, Wish Bone and FleshN-Bone, the artists in the long-running rap group Bone Thugs-n-Harmony sound like characters in a children’s book—but they definitely are not. Hailing from Cleveland, they got their start in the early 1990s when legendary rapper Eazy-E signed them to Ruthless Records. Last year, the group got the music world’s attention when it announced it would make only one copy of its final record and auction it off with bids starting at $1 million. Is this an emerging business model? Time will tell. CAT JOHNSON

FILM

IF THE SHOE FITS, YOU MUST ACQUIT Lily James (center) is ‘Ella’ in Disney’s live-action release of ‘Cinderella.’

Twice Upon A Time MARCH 18-24, 2015 | GTWEEKLY.COM | SANTACRUZ.COM

Charming cast, lush production, but no surprises in live-action ‘Cinderella’ BY LISA JENSEN

ith Once Upon A Time still knocking ’em dead on TV, the folks at Disney now realize what profits can be made from repackaging their old cartoon fairy tale classics into new live-action formats. Last year, they tested the cinematic waters with Maleficent, which was bold enough to retell the story of Sleeping Beauty from the viewpoint of its “evil” fairy villainess. Flawed it may have been, but it was such a radical retelling of the familiar story that it earned its own place in the Disney canon. The latest Disney live-action reboot, Cinderella, sticks much closer to the original story (the Disney version, anyway), and so doesn’t feel quite as fresh. The production values are absolutely luscious, and

Kenneth Branagh’s skilled direction imbues the story with humor, tension, and emotional complexity. But the difference is in the writing. Scriptwriter Linda Woolverton, who wrote Maleficent (also Disney’s Beauty and the Beast and Alice in Wonderland) comes from a generation of women who grew up chafing against the passivity of Disney cartoon heroines. Chris Weitz, who wrote Cinderella, does his best to provide more of a personality for both his heroine and her Prince than they had in the cartoon version, and he succeeds pretty well. But he doesn’t have the same feminist fire. He’s content to stick to the same bare bones of the plot—complete with friendly, liveaction mice (although at least in this version they don’t actually talk)—and

tell the same old story in much the same old way. Still, what the story lacks in innovation, the film makes up for in sheer loveliness, performed by a thoroughly engaging cast. It’s great to see Ben Chaplin back on the big screen in the prologue as little Ella’s charming merchant father. He and his beloved wife (a blonde Hayley Atwell, TV’s Agent Carter) raise their daughter in an idyllic country cottage surrounded by animals, beauty and love. Her mother teaches Ella to “Have courage and be kind,” advice she clings to when her beloved mother dies. Years later, when Ella is a young woman (now played by Lily James, Lady Rose from Downton Abbey), her father remarries. No sooner does Ella’s new stepmother (a ferociously

red-haired Cate Blanchett) move in with her two petulant grown daughters (Holliday Grainger and Sophie McShera), than Ella’s father also dies, leaving her at the mercy of her cruel, resentful new stepfamily. She becomes their kitchen drudge, her quarters removed to the drafty attic, her only friends those sympathetic mice. Why does she put up with it? Weitz invents a promise made to her parents to look after the house where they were all so happy once. Well, OK, but he’s more successful with a scene in the woods where Ella meets a handsome young stranger calling himself Kit (Richard Madden, who plays Robb Stark from Game of Thrones) whom she doesn’t realize is the prince. It’s because Kit is so beguiled by the girl’s beauty and kindness (she talks him and his hunting party out of pursuing a deer, which must be some kind of Disney penance for Bambi), that he orchestrates the whole royal ball ploy, open to all the marriageable ladies in the kingdom, to find her again. Some sections are a bit slow: Ella bravely facing oppression from her step-family, or the overly lengthy ball sequence establishing Ella and Kit’s connection. With her blonde hair and dark brows, James so resembles Daenerys Targaryen, the dragon girl in Game of Thrones, we wish for a flying dragon to jolt things back to life. But Helena Bonham Carter is fun as the loopy fairy godmother, the first transformation scene is well done, and the gold filigree coach conjured from a pumpkin is outstanding! But Branagh’s piece de resistance is the coach’s mad dash away from the palace as the clock strikes midnight, footmen morphing back into lizards, the driver becoming a goose again, snow-white steeds sprouting mouse ears and devolving down into rodent form, all while on the run. It’s a brilliant sequence that makes up for the unadventurous familiarity of the story. Due next year: a live-action Beauty and the Beast, written by Woolverton. Stay tuned. CINDERELLA *** (out of four) With Lily James, Cate Blanchett, Richard Madden, and Helena Bonham Carter. Written by Chris Weitz. Directed by Kenneth Branagh. A Walt Disney release. Rated PG. 112 minutes.

NOW PLAYING AMERICAN SNIPER Bradley Cooper is excellent as the conﬂicted protagonist in this harrowing war drama based on the memoir by Navy SEAL sharpshooter Chris Kyle about his four tours of duty in Iraq. With muscular direction by Clint Eastwood, the ﬁlm plunges viewers relentlessly into the chaos of post-9/11 U.S. military ops in the desert war zone and never lets up. Eastwood captures the complex realities of modern warfare and focuses attention on a horrendous war no one wants to acknowledge, but sitting through

this movie is grueling, from war-porn battle scenes to the empty pomp of military ceremony. (R) 132 minutes. (**1/2)—Lisa Jensen. CINDERELLA Reviewed this issue. (PG) 112 minutes. (***)—Lisa Jensen. CHAPPIE Neill Blomkamp (District 9) has a savvy sense of the sci-fi genre. But this tale of an indestructible robotic police droid of the near future, imbued with consciousness and stolen by a gang of petty crooks, aspires to be little more than a twisted caper comedy about an innocent inducted into a life of crime. A thriller plot involves a lot of amped-up shootouts between criminals, robocops, and even bigger robots. Blomkamp and co-scripter Terri Tatchell make a valiant attempt to weld these random parts together into one big story, but a lot gets lost in all the mayhem. (R) 124 minutes. (**1/2)—Lisa Jensen. THE DUFF A high school senior sparks a revolution in the social hierarchy in this comedy about a girl who finds out she’s known as the DUFF (Designated Ugly Fat Friend) to her more popular girlfriends. Mae Whitman (neither ugly nor fat) has the title role; Bella Thorne co-stars as her chief antagonist. Directed by Ari Sandel, from the Kody Keplinger novel. (PG-13) FIFTY SHADES OF GREY You may not have read the E.L. James book, but you’ve definitely heard of the steamy bestseller about an innocent young secretary and the hunky but troubled new boss who asks for a few services outside her job description. Fun fact: the book was originally written as fan fiction based on the Twilight series. Just sayin’... Jamie Dornan and Dakota Johnson star for director Sam Taylor-Johnson (Nowhere Boy). (R) 125 minutes. FOCUS Will Smith stars as a slick, seasoned con man who takes on a sexy young blonde apprentice (Margot Robbie), but finds their working partnership complicated by romance in this comic caper adventure from co-directors Glenn Ficarra and John Requa (Crazy

Stupid Love). (R) 105 minutes. KINGSMAN: THE SECRET SERVICE The comic book The Secret Service is the inspiration for this tongue-in-cheek spy spoof adventure in which a slick op and his team groom a young street kid into a master spy. Colin Firth, Michael Caine, Jack Davenport, Samuel L. Jackson, and Mark Strong star with newcomer Taron Egerton. Matthew Vaughn (Layer Cake, X-Men First Class) directs. (R) 129 minutes. THE LAZARUS EFFECT Paranormal thriller from the producers of The Purge and Insidious franchises, in which a team of scientists doing research on resurrecting the dead have to try their discovery on one of their own—with harrowing results. Mark Duplass, Olivia Wilde, and Evan Peters star for director David Gelb. (PG-13) 83 minutes. MCFARLAND, USA In this factbased story set in the farm belt of California’s Kern County, Kevin Costner stars as a newly arrived high school PE coach who helps groom a handful of Latino farmworkers’ sons into a championship track team. Maria Bello, Carlos Prats, and Hector Duran co-star for director Niki Caro (Whale Rider). (PG) 128 minutes. RUN ALL NIGHT Liam Neeson decides to get mad, and even (as usual), as a retired hit-man who goes after his crime lord ex-boss (Ed Harris) to protect his estranged son (Joel Kinnaman). Common co-stars for director Jaume ColletSerra (Non-Stop; Unknown). (R) 114 minutes. THE SECOND BEST EXOTIC MARIGOLD HOTEL Most of the original cast members return as mature expat Brits getting a new lease on life in India when the ambitious young proprietor of their residential hotel (Dev Patel) tempts chaos by trying to expand his business and get married at the same time. Judi Dench, Maggie Smith, Bill Nighy, Penelope Wilton, and Celia Imrie

head the cast, which also includes newcomers David Strathairn and Richard Gere. John Madden directs. (PG) 122 minutes. SONG OF THE SEA Anyone who loves seals, ancient Celtic folklore, fairy tales or mythology will be utterly charmed by this magical Irish animated feature. Directed by Tomm Moore, whose previous ﬁlm was the lovely Secret of the Kells, inspired by the famed illuminated manuscript, this Oscar-nominated fable combines traditional tales of the selkies (seals who transform into human women on land) with a stunning visual palette, and an endearing tale of a young girl and her destiny. Every hand-drawn frame of this movie is ravishing, so see it on a big screen! (PG) 93 minutes. (****)—Lisa Jensen. UNFINISHED BUSINESS Vince Vaughn, Tom Wilkinson, and Dave Franco star in this comedy as a trio of Yanks on a business trip to Berlin where every possible thing that can go awry does. Ken Scott directs. (R) 91 minutes. WHAT WE DO IN THE SHADOWS Jemaine Clement and Taika Waititi, co-creators of HBO cult hit Flight of the Conchords, take on vampireobsessed pop culture in this comedy about bloodsucking roommates trying to keep up with the times— trends, technology, fashion, their zombie and werewolf rivals, and their daily dose of nourishment. (Not rated) 86 minutes. WILD TALES Recently nominated for a Foreign Language Oscar, produced by Pedro Almodóvar, this dark satire from Argentina contains six related stories about the pressures, demands, and injustices of modern life and a cast of characters who gleefully give in to the temptation to lose control. (R) 115 minutes. In Spanish with English subtitles. ’71 Jack O’Connell (Unbroken) stars as a young British soldier accidentally left behind by his unit for one harrowing night in the streets of riot-torn Belfast during “The Troubles,” in this

FOOD & DRINK dark chocolate creation had been shaped, and sliced, exactly like a cylindrical salame. Each bite seemed to require follow-up with another. And then another. My favorite was a spectacularly understated panna cotta infused with the bright flavor of mint (grown in the restaurant’s garden), and utterly, perfectly creamy. Seven dollars well-spent. A squiggle of dark chocolate on the plate led to a chocolate amaretto cookie. Lovely presentation on both of these desserts, which we enjoyed along with excellent espresso. After this initial sampling from La Gioconda’s organic and authentically northern Italian menu, I am making plans to return—soon. La Gioconda is located at 3101 Main St. in Soquel. 477-9254. giocondarestaurant.com.

DESSERT OF THE WEEK

GET YOUR GREENS An arugula and shaved artichoke salad at La Gioconda in Soquel

Meet La Gioconda

Authentic Northern Italian in Soquel, plus a dessert and a pastry to melt hearts BY CHRISTINA WATERS ($12) and another of Sant’Antimo Sangiovese ($8), we shared a memorable house salad of baby arugula ($8) laced with shaved artichokes, a Meyer lemon vinaigrette and topped with wide ribbons of Parmigiano-Reggiano. The crunch, the peppery flavor, the rich hints of cheese here and there—it was one of those addictive salads that had me wishing I could finish off the entire order by myself. But I shared with Maria, who in turn offered tastes of her carrot bisque ($8). A fennelinfused olive oil ringed the bowl of creamy vegan carrot soup. Crisp croutons decorated the top as well as salty flash-fried Brussels sprout leaves. The combination of smooth creamy soup and crisp crunchy

decoration was smart and delicious. Our entrees heightened the culinary mood. Two great pasta dishes came next, including a Piedmontese specialty of ravioli stuffed with braised beef short ribs ($19) and smothered in a dark brown short-rib gravy. The other, not as heavy, was the evening’s special pasta—plump succulent paccheri sauced with a classic Bolognese ($15). Every bite was wonderful and made with authenticity and expertise. For dessert we sampled two unusual La Gioconda creations. Chocolate Salame? How could we not try it? And yes, studded with amaretto cookies and joined by a creamy mascarpone zabaglione, the

PASTRY OF THE WEEK Without a doubt, that would be the insanely buttery hazelnut brown butter cake from Manresa Bread. It was one of the irresistible new Manresa pastries headlining the display case at Verve last week. Imagine a three-inch in diameter cake laced with crushed hazelnuts— chewy and intensely buttery. In the center was hidden a round knob of bittersweet chocolate ganache topped with a toasted hazelnut, more chopped bits of hazelnut and shards of rock salt. Salt, bitter chocolate cream, butter, and hazelnuts. It was quite possibly the best thing I’ve ever tasted. Paired with obsidian-rich dark roast, the pastry knocked me out. But then, so did the thumbnail carrot cake, like angels’ wings with naughty spices. And the moist slab of elegant polenta cake. Yes, Manresa Bread at Verve is my new addiction.

SANTACRUZ.COM | GTWEEKLY.COM | MARCH 18-24, 2015

fabulous bowl of fat paccheri pasta—think oversized rigatoni—won our instant approval on a first dinner at the new La Gioconda on Main Street in Soquel. Through its many incarnations the craftsmanbungalow setting has retained its charm. From the personal greeting from proprietor Luca Viara—a native of Turin who was a restaurateur in Italy before establishing Seabright’s Tramonti as co-owner and head chef—at the front door to the many dishes infused by organic produce grown in the restaurant’s own garden, our visit to La Gioconda was a treat. Armed for Italian dining with a glass of Nobile Montepulciano

The salted butterscotch budino at Ristorante Avanti, over which Rita and I tried not to make a huge scene—and failed. Topped with a float of warm caramel sauce and freshly whipped cream, this dessert was sin on steroids. Seriously rich and exactly what you want when you want to color way outside of the lines and have a dessert that takes no prisoners. Abandon your diet for a day and treat yourself to this plush Italianate pudding.

eluxe Foods of Aptos has a splendid selection of local wines. I sometimes spend ages there just browsing through the latest and greatest from various wineries in the Santa Cruz Mountains appellation. It was there that I found a Jason-Stephens Estate Merlot—2008 Santa Clara Valley. With an abundance of body and structure, this is a Merlot well worth buying—and for only $15.99. Jason Goelz is the winemaker and Stephen Dorcich is the winegrower at Jason-Stephens, and both share “a commitment to crafting full-bodied and flavorful wines from celebrated Uvas Canyon soil.” I’d say they’ve hit the nail on the head. I always love a glass of wine when I’m cooking dinner, and I thoroughly enjoyed a first tasting of this velvety wine before I even got to pairing it with some juicy Omaha steaks, which were part of a huge gift-pack from family in Nebraska. Supermarkets don’t always have the most current releases available, so if you head to the Jason-Stephens tasting room to buy some 2008 or 2009 Merlot, you will probably find their latest 2010 Merlot ($24). But, at a selling price of under $16 at Deluxe for the 2008, you’re getting a bargain. Merlot went through the wringer after the movie Sideways came out in 2004. It was slammed as “flabby” by Paul Giamatti’s character, Miles, and sales plummeted. Well, we’ve all got over that now, so here’s to drinking a heck of a lot more Merlot.

Jason-Stephens Winery, 11775 Watsonville Road, Gilroy, 408-8468463. jstephens.com. Tasting room open daily noon to 5 p.m. Deluxe Foods of Aptos, 783-25 Rio Del Mar Blvd., Aptos, 688-7442. Deluxefoodsofaptos.com.

FIT-STOP CAFÉ Seascape Sports Club has a brand-new café—and it’s not just for members. Operated by owner Glen Isaacs, who has more than 20 years in the business—he ran a café inside Lifestyle Fitness in Watsonville—and Trina Korba, all kinds of goodies are offered at Fit-Stop Café. Readily available are fresh juices, smoothies, muffins, and homemade soups, made fresh daily. His clam chowder is some of the best around. Half a dozen different salads are available, and a variety of sandwiches as well. Try the breakfast sandwich with ham, eggs, onion, cheese, tomato and avocado, served on a squaw bun. It’ll keep you going all day. Fit-Stop Café (inside Seascape Sports Club), 1505 Seascape Blvd., Aptos, 5364361. Open 5:30 a.m.-2:30 p.m.

Persian New Year India Joze gears up for the Persian New year BY MARIA GRUSAUSKAS

he 42 years that Jozseph Schultz has cooked in Santa Cruz are punctuated by festivals and parties of all kinds, from calamari to chickpeas to edible flowers. This weekend marks the 30th year he’ll throw a festival for the Persian New Year, Now Rooz. GT sat down with Schultz to go over his party plans, which include a cooking class outside at India Joze on Saturday, March 21, and a Festival Feast on Sunday, March 22.

You’re not Persian, why celebrate their New Year?

What is Persian cuisine like? One of the striking features is they never accepted chilis the way that other cultures did, so it’s not a spicy cuisine. They do import spices. They

Forty dollars gets you a seat at the festival feast table. Are you crazy? I like to make it accessible. Money is a good way of sort of focusing interest, but I think to have that be the only way to decide who gets to go to something is just kind of lame. I mean, I see these pop-up restaurants that are charging $200 a person. This is obscene. It’s not that I don’t think they’re good cooks, it’s just that there’s something wrong there. So that’s my political statement. I look at these festivals as a culture where people eat together, rich and poor. For more information, visit facebook.com/IndiaJoze.

Persian is basically the oldest continuously celebrated culture. Now Rooz is a festival that goes back at least 6,000 years. It’s basically the basis of many of our western celebratory traditions. Culinarily speaking, Persia’s where the agricultural revolution took place. So when we talk about most of the foods that are the basis of our society, like rice and wheat and lamb and wine and almonds, they all came from Persia at one point or another—both in ingredients and in techniques.

celebrate the local and the far away. It’s not any one thing, it’s many, many different food traditions coming together—from herbs like sabzi, or green herbs of different kinds that are very important in all of the spring foods, and of course that’s hunter gatherer stuff. In addition to celebrating wheat, they celebrate non-wheat. There are various kinds of cookies that are gluten free, and have been forever. In Santa Cruz, the big problem is that no two people can eat together. This festival is culinarily inclusive because they put out all of these different things, so that everyone can eat together.

Honoring all fathers, St. Joseph’s Feast Day is Thursday, March 19. On Friday, March 20, spring begins. Less than one hour after the New Moon (29.29 Pisces) total solar eclipse, the Sun enters Aries. It’s spring equinox, the new Spiritual year begins, and we celebrate International Astrology Day. Essential eclipse themes—endings, completions, departures, breakdowns, breakthroughs and revelations. The gate of Aries, sign of “all things made new” swings open at spring equinox and the primal fiery green force within all life on Earth resurrects. This fiery life force is the hidden mystery of Easter and resurrection. Ancient people believed at the beginning of time/creation, when elements first appeared forming the substance (matter, mater, mother) of our cosmos, the Sun was in Aries. As spring unfolds, the creative life-giving spiritual essences within humanity and Earth’s kingdoms ascend. Spring initiates (Aries keyword) new life, new hope and vision, the new world order, culture and civilization. Sparks of fire appear at the rootlets of

The next three months sees you working in groups, then sliding behind veils, protecting yourself in order, later, to reveal yourselves to the world with new ideas, thoughts, processes and a new identity. Be aware of fluid shifts within and without. When summer comes you communicate a new way of life, new values, new finances and new ways of to create the foundation of the next civilization. You’re impelled.

TAURUS Apr21–May21 More and more of you identify yourself as integral to group work. Groups call to you and although you may be at times overextended, you’re challenged to fully participate. Taurus uses their “will and willingness” to maintain. You’re a forward thinker, always creating ideals and future goals, concerned with ways humanity can efficiently and ethically live differently. Study alternative homes, building and ancient architecture.

GEMINI May 22–June 20 Jupiter asks, “Will you travel, take short trips, expand your area of interests even though there may be a wound involved or a state of unknowing? Are you seeking right livelihood in areas that reflect you or in areas others expect you to work? Are you asking what your role in the future is? How to serve?” If you ask yourself these questions, the answer begins to form quietly within the self. Ask Mercury, then Venus.

You’re learning new things, given the opportunity to redo much of the past in order to heal that past. This will continue. Through discussions with people—teachers, shamans, those who till the land, mentors—a new world opens. It’s what you’ve been seeking. You realize others are interested in your life, thoughts, and how you see yourself. Who you thought you were in the past is dissolving. A new self-identity is forming.

LE0 Jul21–Aug22 The planets are maintaining their presence in your house of shared resources, the Scorpio house. Is your sense of self shifting? Do you feel something about yourself dissolving. You’ve thought about relationships. They bring you fortune, they wound—all part of their purpose. We always move from relationships to things shared. Are you sharing with another? Are important papers, finances in order? You’ve gone into hiding again.

VIRGO Aug23–Sep22 You may feel the need to study a subject that brings the future into closer focus. Study heals wounds, brings ideals forth, sets you upon the path chosen before coming into this lifetime. Mercury, your ruler (guardian), nudges you into integrating work that serves others. Should this occur, a new confidence comes forth. In what ways do you seek to serve?

LIBRA Sep23–Oct22 You always wish for fun and romance and having a playful time.

plants,“resurrecting” them “from fire to light to life.”The two first leaves of new plants resemble the sign Aries. The first day of spring is the first full day of fiery Aries (after Pisces waters—fire and water together form new life), initiating the new spiritual and astrological year (International Astrology Day). A new cycle of time begins in the tropical (seasonal) zodiac. Astrology is the heavenly directional template, the guidepost for beginnings, endings, changes, transformations for humanity. Aries Sun, spring equinox, Sun at the equator, light equaling darkness, the northward equinox occurring also signal the Iranian new year (Norouz); beginning of the Bahá'í (Naw-Rúz) calendar; Ostara (Germanic spring goddess, giving birth to Yule in nine months); Chunfen (Vernal Equinox) in China. In Maya, it is the “return of the Sun serpent. The ever-moving wheel of the year turns once more. We together, “ascend.” Resurrection begins within all life on Earth. These balance you, make you happy and creating a golden light to emanate from you. You seek love and humor and warmth of companionship. These are available. However your greatest joy will be the way you creatively and freely express your talents and gifts. Something’s hidden. A wound, a sadness. What is it? Consider now a long tropical summer vacation.

SCORPIO Oct23–Nov21 You’ve sought comfort from home and family. Now you seek daily life plans, agendas, work for comfort. You will create a home in a new place. It will be an inner sanctum. You’ve come to understand the foundations of your family, which helped you grow. Now you must create a new foundation with new values, comforts and nourishment. There may be a move, new dwellings may be constructed. Forgiveness comes forth.

SAGITTARIUS Nov22–Dec20 Your intelligence increases and you take up new studies, the new knowledge needed to build your new life, along with the new culture and civilization. Your gifts teach others, expanding their knowledge, inviting them to be part of the new era being built. Walk though many neighborhoods, become familiar with them and the people living there. This is humanity. Photograph, draw and paint aspects of these neighborhoods. Design your new life from these.

CAPRICORN Dec21–Jan20 Great parts of yourself are hidden. You seek these found objects of self. They are your talents and gifts. Your talents are part of your value system. Think about what these talents and values are and how they will help bring forth your new era of life, different than yet colored by the past. Give abundantly to others in all ways, especially praise. This assures that abundance is returned back to you. Giving becomes the true value.

AQUARIUS Jan21–Feb18 You’ve experienced great changes in your life. Now you’re faced with new challenges. You’re creating a new value system. Make sure that as much has been given to you, that you, in return, give to others. Tend to all relationships and interactions and to things lawful. And think about how you are helping to build the new world. You are one of its leaders. Identify what daily life actions are already there. Right identification is most important.

PISCES Feb19–Mar20 You’re always behind a few veils, behind the scenes, private, hidden for protection in order to contemplate the future in many ways still unformed. Your inner self wants to give to those in need without expectations of being noticed, known or even thanked. Giving allows our inner life to regenerate. Dreams become intuitive information. Faith and religion and spiritual things nourish. Do all these things with gratitude and a sense of purpose. They save you, so you can save the world (Pisces task).
