OPINION
EDITOR’S NOTE I grew up in the ’80s, when the hippie movement’s stock was at an all-time low. With yippiesturned-yuppies like Jerry Rubin oozing sleaze in the news, ’60 idealists were considered either sellouts, or—if they had actually stuck to their values—silly burnouts who had lost touch with reality. It wasn’t until I came to UCSC that I started to get an inkling of what hippies had actually accomplished, and started to understand how their legacy had been distorted. The worst part was that a lot of the actual hippies I met in Santa Cruz had bought into the mainstream narrative of how the flower children had “failed.”

YES ON D: THE ONLY WAY
4
Unless you are happy with the current state of our transportation system, “yes” is the only way to vote on Measure D. Measure D is a balanced plan to greatly improve our current system. Measure D will fix our local streets, build better pedestrian and bicycle facilities including “Safe Routes to Schools” for our children, enhance our bus system, improve the commute along Highway 1, build the rail trail and complete the environmental study needed to make a wise decision about the rail corridor. Voting No just means things will get worse. Join me in voting Yes on D, and let’s get everyone moving. MARK MESITI-MILLER, P.E. | SANTA CRUZ
FUTURE OF D The farmers market in Santa Cruz was bustling Wednesday afternoon, the weather was perfect. But what will a typical September day look like in 2030, when Santa Cruz residents would still be paying sales tax because of Measure D, and increasing their contribution to greenhouse gas emissions on a wider, congested, treeless Highway 1? Will the temperature be hot and dry, the shoreline altered by sea level rise, or life in the Bay declining because of warm waters and ocean acidification? Will it be difficult to pay the highway bonds, complete a bike trail or continue funding any sort of METRO system? Back at the farmers market in September,
Reading Christina Waters’ cover story this week, and seeing the pictures from new books documenting what the actual hippie movement was like, that mainstream narrative seems so cartoonish and ridiculously wrong now. The stories about and photos of Ben Lomond’s Holiday Cabins commune were particularly eye-opening for me, and even most longtime locals don’t know much about this offbeat chapter in San Lorenzo Valley history. As the 50th anniversary of the Summer of Love approaches next year, hippies are suddenly cool again—or at least the negative “dirty hippie” stereotypes have finally faded. Stories and books like these that give the world a clearer look at the utopian ideals that the movement reached for are steps in the right direction.

MONSTER SECRETS After reading your article about Pokemon Go, “Monster Headaches” (GT, 8/24), I came across another story about how the inventors of this game are selling all the images, logistics and coordinates collected on the cellphones of the players to completely map everyone’s backyard, bedroom and military base! So every time someone plays this game on their cell phone, they are acting as corporate/government intel agents to photograph and map every foot of space on this planet, including what was once your private space. Time to wake up everyone. DREW LEWIS | SANTA CRUZ

BILL TO LAST
FRESH SWEETNESS
A Student Loan Borrowers’ Bill of Rights will go into effect in two years to better help people navigate the world of debt. The bill, authored by California Assemblymember Mark Stone (D-Scotts Valley), was signed by Gov. Jerry Brown last week. The new law will provide a licensing program to regulate servicers, giving state officials the authority to revoke, deny or suspend licenses. It also aims to better inform students and consumers.
Hive & Hum, a home décor and gift shop that opened a few months ago, officially celebrated its grand opening on Sunday, Oct. 2. Managers served up Twins Kitchen jam, and beer from Uncommon Brewers, which plans to move in next door on River Street after some renovations. Jake Reisdorf, the 13-year-old boy-wonder owner of Carmel Honey Company, handed out treats of his own, which are available at Hive & Hum’s 415 River St. store.

ROB BREZSNY FREE WILL ASTROLOGY Week of October 5 ARIES Mar21–Apr19 At a recent party, a guy I hardly know questioned my authenticity. “You seem to have had an easy life,” he jabbed. “I bet you haven’t suffered enough to be a truly passionate person.” I didn’t choose to engage him, but mused to myself, “Not enough suffering? What about the time I got shot? My divorce? My five-year-long illness? The manager of my rock band getting killed in a helicopter crash?” But after that initial reaction, my thoughts turned to the adventures that have stoked my passion without causing pain, like the birth of my daughter, getting remarried to the woman I divorced, and performing my music for excited audiences. I bring this up, Aries, because I suspect that you, too, will soon have experiences that refine and deepen your passion through pleasure rather than hardship.
TAURUS Apr20–May20 It’s the Frank and Focused Feedback Phase, Taurus— prime time to solicit insight about how you’re doing. Here are four suggestions to get you started. 1. Ask a person who loves and respects you to speak the compassionate truth about what’s most important for you to learn. 2. Consult a trustworthy advisor who can help motivate you to do the crucial thing you’ve been postponing. 3. Have an imaginary conversation with the person you were a year ago. Encourage the Old You to be honest about how the New You could summon more excellence in pursuing your essential goals. 4. Say this prayer to your favorite tree or animal or meadow: “Show me what I need to do in order to feel more joy.”
GEMINI May21–June20 Many of my readers regard me as being exceptionally creative. Over the years, they have sent countless emails praising me for my original approach to problem-solving and art-making. But I suspect that I wasn’t born with a greater talent for creativity than anyone else. I’ve simply placed a high value on developing it, and have worked harder to access it than most people. With that in mind, I invite you to tap more deeply into your own mother lode of innovative, imaginative energy. The cosmic trends favor it. Your hormones are nudging you in that direction. What projects could use a jolt of primal brilliance? What areas of your life need a boost of ingenuity?

Love wants more of you. Love longs for you to give everything you have and receive everything you need. Love is conspiring to bring you beautiful truths and poignant teases, sweet dispensations and confounding mysteries, exacting blessings and riddles that will take your entire life to solve. But here are some crucial questions: Are you truly ready for such intense engagement? Are you willing to do what’s necessary to live at a higher and deeper level? Would you know how to work with such extravagant treasure and wild responsibility? The coming weeks will be prime time to explore the answers to these questions. I’m not sure what your answers will be.
LE0 Jul23–Aug22 Each of us contains a multiplicity of selves. You may often feel like there’s just one of you rumbling around inside your psyche, but it’s closer to the truth to say that you’re a community of various characters whose agendas sometimes overlap and sometimes conflict. For example, the needy part of you that craves love isn’t always on the same wavelength as the ambitious part of you that seeks power. That’s why it’s a good idea to periodically organize summit meetings where all of your selves can gather and negotiate. Now is one of those times: a favorable moment to foster harmony among your inner voices and to mobilize them to work together in service of common goals.
VIRGO Aug23–Sep22 Pike’s Peak is a 14,115-foot mountain in Colorado. It’s not a simple task to trek to the top. Unless you’re well-trained, you might experience altitude sickness. Wicked thunderstorms are a regular occurrence during the summer. Snow falls year-round. But back in 1929, an adventurer
named Bill Williams decided the task of hiking to the summit wasn’t tough enough. He sought a more demanding challenge. Wearing kneepads, he spent 21 days crawling along as he used his nose to push a peanut all the way up. I advise you to avoid making him your role model in the coming weeks, Virgo. Just climb the mountain. Don’t try to push a peanut up there with your nose, too.
LIBRA Sep23–Oct 22 “It isn’t normal to know what we want,” said psychologist Abraham Maslow. “It is a rare and difficult psychological achievement.” He wasn’t referring to the question of what you want for dinner or the new shoes you plan to buy. He was talking about big, long-term yearnings: what you hope to be when you grow up, the qualities you look for in your best allies, the feelings you’d love to feel in abundance every day of your life. Now here’s the good news, Libra: The next 10 months should bring you the best chance ever to figure out exactly what you want the most. And it all starts now.
SCORPIO Oct23–Nov21 Practitioners of the Ayurvedic medical tradition tout the healing power of regular self-massage. Creativity expert Julia Cameron recommends that you periodically go out on dates with yourself. Taoist author Mantak Chia advises you to visualize sending smiles and good wishes to your kidneys, lungs, liver, heart, and other organs. He says that these acts of kindness bolster your vigor. The coming weeks will be an especially favorable time to attend to measures like these, Scorpio. I hope you will also be imaginative as you give yourself extra gifts and compliments and praise.
SAGITTARIUS Nov22–Dec21 The coming weeks will be one of the best times ever for wrestling with God or tussling with Fate or grappling with karma. Why do I say that? Because you’re likely to emerge triumphant! That’s right, you lucky, plucky contender. More than I’ve seen in a long time, you have the potential to draw on the crafty power and unruly wisdom and resilient compassion you would need to be an unambiguous winner. A winner of what? You tell me. What dilemma would you most like to resolve? What test would you most like to ace? At what game would you most like to be victorious? Now is the time.
CAPRICORN Dec22–Jan19 Are you grunting and sweating as you struggle to preserve and maintain the gains of the past? Or are you smooth and cagey as you maneuver your way toward the rewards of the future? I’m rooting for you to put the emphasis on the second option. Paradoxically, that will be the best way to accomplish the first option. It will also ensure that your motivations are primarily rooted in love and enthusiasm rather than worry and stress. And that will enable you to succeed at the second option.
AQUARIUS Jan20–Feb18 Do you believe that you are mostly just a product of social conditioning and your genetic make-up? Or are you willing to entertain a different hypothesis: that you are a primal force of nature on an unpredictable journey? That you are capable of rising above your apparent limitations and expressing aspects of yourself that might have been unimaginable when you were younger? I believe the coming weeks will be a favorable time to play around with this vision. Your knack for transcendence is peaking. So are your powers to escape the past and exceed limited expectations.
PISCES Feb19–Mar20 In one of your nightly dreams, Robin Hood may team up with Peter Pan to steal unused treasure from a greedy monster—and then turn the booty over to you. Or maybe you’ll meet a talking hedgehog and singing fox who will cast a spell to heal and revive one of your wounded fantasies. It’s also conceivable that you will recover a magic seed that had been lost or forgotten, and attract the help of a fairy godmother or godfather to help you ripen it.

RE: SANDERS PLATFORM The platform that Santa Cruz for Bernie came up with makes sense to me. Why
shouldn’t We The People aim for better than just mediocre? I feel like Santa Cruz is an amazing city that should be leading the county with our progressive, helpful values and ideals. That’s why Drew Glover, Chris Krohn, Sandy Brown, and Steve Schnaar have my vote this November. They are standing up for their progressive ideas, and put their names on the line by agreeing to the platform. They have my respect and my vote. — DANIELLE GLYNN

Cell Trouble
County settles $1 million jail suit and renews a controversial medical contract BY MATTHEW RENDA
A
manda Sloan took down a poster from her cell late at night, revealing a pipe in the wall. She then took out a piece of gauze, wrapped it around the pipe, hanged herself and died at the Santa Cruz Main Jail. Sloan was on suicide watch on that night three years ago, and the sheriff’s deputies at the jail were supposed to be checking on her every 15 minutes—but they weren’t. The tragedy of 30-yearold Sloan’s death prompted a lawsuit from her family, and last month, the county settled the suit for $1 million,
making it the third-biggest settlement ever for a jail suicide in California. “It was a problem of not having adequate policies, and then violating the policies they did have,” one of the lawyers, Eric Nelson, says. Sloan’s death is one of six that have happened since August 2012, and the county’s grand jury has released scathing reports on the jail and its medical provider, California Forensic Medical Group (CFMG), in each of the past three years. Still, the Santa Cruz County Board of Supervisors last month extended its contract with
CFMG, which has been the defendant in lawsuits around the state, including in Santa Cruz. In the two years leading up to her suicide, Sloan suffered one hardship after another, having abruptly lost her dad to a brain aneurysm in 2011. Then her husband, Jeff Smith, got into an argument with his neighbors over an apparent theft a year later. Shots were fired, and Smith died in Sloan’s arms, according to Amanda Sloan’s mother, Fox Sloan. “Amanda was furious the sheriff’s deputies questioned him >12

Elham Dehghani was driving home from a business trip in Sacramento on Highway 880 when she spotted what looked like a “mushroom cloud” erupting out of the Santa Cruz Mountains near her home. Her 13-year-old daughter was at soccer practice sending videos of the same smoky blaze via text message, trembling as she did so. “It was terrifying. It seemed so epic looking at it. What I’m amazed with is the people who offered their support and places,” says Dehghani, whose neighborhood was under voluntary evacuation from the Loma Fire last week. She and her family chose to stay in their home on Highland Way and Mt. Bache Road. She says sheriff’s deputies checked on her family and dog every few hours. “Pretty scary, though,” adds Dehghani, who moved to the summit from the Almaden area two years ago. The fire, which started on the hot afternoon of Monday, Sept. 26, practically exploded at first, growing by a rate of about 100 acres an hour as temperatures in the area soared to 100 degrees. Since then, the fire has taken a dozen homes and 16 more structures, scorching 4,474 acres along the way as of Tuesday morning. It threatens 51 more, even as firefighters and law enforcement work around the clock. “They’ve been amazing,” Dehghani says. “I’ve seen a lot of signs thanking firefighters. I’d love to see more signs thanking the sheriffs. They’ve been fantastic. They deserve a lot of credit as well.” Originally, California Department of Forestry and Fire Protection officials said the blaze started by the intersection of Loma Prieta and Loma Chiquita roads, near what appeared to be a structure, but fire officials have since backed away from the details, saying they can’t give any specifics while the cause is being investigated. “The cause is still under investigation, and it will be for probably a while, because once the investigators determine the cause, they turn it over to the Santa Clara Sheriff's Office,” says Ken Haskett, a firefighter with

NEWS CELL TROUBLE <11 rather than let the medical personnel on scene tend to him,” Fox says. “She believes they let him die.” Fox says Sloan saw the shooter, but no arrests were ever made, and the murder remained unsolved, deepening Sloan’s ire toward local law enforcement. A few months later, Capitola police pulled Sloan over. During the stop Amanda Sloan became angry and sped off, reportedly discharging a gun out of the sunroof. Police said she fired at a police officer, a charge that carries serious jail time. After being booked, Sloan escaped from jail and headed out on the run, changing her hair color and moving her children from location to location in the Soquel Hills, where her family has lived for four generations. She quickly landed at the top of Santa Cruz’s Most Wanted list. Eventually, her mother grew concerned that Sloan would do something rash, and when Fox found her daughter at the family’s ranch property in the hills, she called 911, telling dispatchers her daughter was bent on suicide by cop and imploring them not to harm her. Officers surrounded the property, and when Sloan jumped out the
window brandishing a gun, deputies shot her five times, most of the shots hitting her in the legs. After arresting her, deputies took her to a local hospital and then to the Santa Cruz County Jail, where she repeatedly talked of suicide. When Sloan learned her children had been seized by social services, her depression deepened. On July 17, 2013, nearly a year after her husband’s death, Sloan was found dead in her cell. According to federal statistics, suicide has been the leading cause of custody deaths nationwide every year from 2000 to 2013—the most recent year with data available. The four lawyers who filed the suit claimed not only negligence, but also deliberate indifference, which occurs when officers know about excessive risk to an inmate’s health or safety, but disregard it. “What makes this case different than most cases, aside from the obviously tragic result, is the complete lack of adequate policies— and then the attempt to cover it up by falsifying the observation logs,” said attorney Jonathan Gettleman, one of a team of lawyers that sued the county on behalf of Amanda Sloan’s three children. The legal team included Gettleman
and his partners Eric Nelson and Elizabeth Caballero, along with Diane Vaillancourt, a civil rights lawyer who lives in Santa Cruz. Not only did the case never reach trial, but it also failed to even reach the motion-to-dismiss phase at the federal court—fairly atypical in cases against local governments. “But the facts were so egregious in this case,” Vaillancourt explains. Sloan’s death was the last of five jail deaths over an 11-month period between 2012 and 2013 in Santa Cruz. The following fall, the initial grand jury investigation into the jail found that staff violated two safety protocols before Sloan’s suicide. The first of those mandated officers to perform routine hourly safety checks, and another forbid inmates from placing anything on cell walls, doors or windows. The staff tasked with safety checks made several entries in the jail’s observation logs, claiming to have visited Sloan’s cell five times during the morning of her suicide from 2:21 a.m. to 3:26 a.m., about an hour before Sloan was found dead. When the Grand Jury reviewed the video, however, the footage revealed jail staff made only one observation to Sloan’s cell >16

STREET TWEETS

As activists around the country look for oversight of their local police departments, many officers have been retooling and looking to better engage with their communities. The transformation can be seen in the viral videos popping up around the country of officers showing up to neighborhood picnics to meet kids, or playing pickup basketball. Along those same lines, the Santa Cruz Police Department (SCPD) has been live-tweeting the heck out of everything Santa Cruz for the last week. The department’s social media team was in full force at Santa Cruz’s
150th anniversary celebration on Main Beach on Saturday, sharing pictures of tourists posing with cops and cute little tikes climbing on police ATVs. And the night before, on Friday, Sept. 30, SCPD held a virtual ride—or as it was called on Twitter, #ridewithSCPD. The event played out like a slower, small-town episode of Cops, one composed of pictures and also a few 10-second videos. In addition to age-old lessons like “crime doesn’t pay,” the feed offered adages like “be more careful in the future,” about making sure there’s an emergency before calling 911. SCPD also just launched an online survey for those who live or
work in Santa Cruz. Officers hope to gain insight into the issues that impact the community from the anonymous questionnaire, which takes about 10 minutes.

FEET STREET Open Streets rolls back into Santa Cruz on Sunday for its fourth year, shutting down West Cliff Drive for bikes, pedestrians, roller skaters and the like. On Sunday, Oct. 9, the
event will close two miles of the street from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. “It is a free community event that encourages sustainable transportation and healthy communities,” says Bike Santa Cruz County outreach coordinator Janneke Lang. The so-called “pop-up park” started in 2012, the brainchild of Saskia Lucas, and came under Bike Santa Cruz County’s wing this year. Watsonville hosted an Open Streets event of its own in 2015, and Lang says organizers would love to bring it back to South County next year, but they’re looking for funding.

SWELTER SKELTER <11 Cal Fire. “If it’s a man-made cause—which 95 percent of our fires are man-made— that person who started it is going to be responsible for all of the costs and resources for all of us being up here.” Cal Fire officials had originally said they hoped to contain the fire by Monday, Oct. 3, but the new goal is Saturday, Oct. 8, after heavy weekend winds slowed crews’ progress. The real culprit behind the delay, though, Haskett says, has been the steep canyons and rough terrain that make it difficult for firefighters to hike in, and mountain roads that make unloading hoses and other equipment off trucks difficult. Still, they’ve managed to keep
the fire from spreading to the Santa Cruz County side of the ridge. Shortly after the fire started, a UPS driver posted a 10-minute Facebook video of the blaze quickly spreading. As it grew, it picked up speed. The fire was already getting so hot that trees could be heard exploding. After years of drought, the past year and a half has seen two of California’s worst fire seasons in memory, and the past two decades have been a trial by fire in general. Eleven of the 14 biggest fires in California history have happened in the last 15 years. In the Santa Cruz Mountains, the Loma fire has been devouring dry, yellowed bushes as kindling. On the other side of the bay, the Soberanes Fire in Big Sur has burned 132,000 acres and is 94 percent
contained after nearly two and a half months ablaze. Haskett says Cal Fire is working with PG&E to repair gas and electricity lines before the rest of evacuated residents can move back into their homes. Among the firefighters, morale is still pretty good, says Haskett. “They want to be back in their homes, and we want to get them back in their homes,” he says. “We’ve been busy this year, and we don’t want any homes destroyed. When homes are destroyed, it takes an emotional toll on us, as well—not as severe, but we don’t want it to happen.”

over that time. Staff members had falsified the visitation logs. On top of that, the door’s window into the cell was obscured by a poster Sloan had placed there, in addition to the one on the wall. Vaillancourt praised the county for quickly settling, saying this way most of the money will go to the children, rather than paying attorney’s fees, expert witnesses, court costs and other expenses associated with these lawsuits. “Although no amount of money can make up for her death, we hope this settlement will provide what she wanted most [for her children]: opportunities for a better life,” she says. Gettleman says the case highlights ongoing problems with conditions at the county jail, which last year had its sixth death in four years, since CFMG became the jail’s medical provider in 2012. The grand jury has investigated the local jail three times in that span. The U.S. Bureau of Justice Statistics estimates that between 2000 and 2013, inmate deaths ranged from 121 to 151 per 100,000 inmates per year. By that metric, the jail, which has a population of around 500, could expect around three deaths per four years. That’s twice the county’s rate, although all but one of those deaths happened in the first 11 months of that stretch. According to the most recent grand jury report, 82 percent of local American jails experienced zero deaths over that 13-year period. In its latest report, the grand jury studied the death of Krista DeLuca, who died a year ago of drug withdrawal, even though she was being supervised by medical staff. The report lays responsibility for 23-yearold DeLuca’s death directly at the feet of CFMG. The grand jury also strongly suggested the death rate can directly be tied to the jail’s Monterey-based medical provider.
CONTRACT RENEWED Despite the grand jury’s criticism, the Santa Cruz County Board of Supervisors unanimously approved an approximately $3.3 million contract with CFMG on Sept. 13 for
Not the Breakwater episode including profuse vomiting that caused her to be hospitalized. After returning from the hospital, she alleges, her medical care was so inadequate that she suffered a stroke from which she’s never recovered. Hart notes that CFMG is the medical service provider for county jails in 27 counties in California. There are lawsuits against CFMG in almost all of these jurisdictions. Chief Jail Deputy Jeff Marsh, however, says these trends are at least partially attributable to how vulnerable the inmate population can be, particularly in Santa Cruz, where drug abuse is common. “We have to do better,” he adds. “We don’t like it when anyone dies in our jail.” Gettleman says part of the problem is that governments jail people suffering from mental health crises and drug addiction instead of finding other solutions or sending them elsewhere. “Incarceration becomes the triage for mental health crisis,” he says. The grand jury has noted that it can’t investigate CFMG because it’s a for-profit company, but the report lists 12 recommendations to improve oversight over CFMG, as well as detoxification procedures. And although it doesn’t make the recommendation, the report also notes that the county does have the authority to switch back to using the county’s Health Services Agency (HSA) in-house at the local jail, as it did four years ago. The notion of phasing out private medical care in jails is something Gettleman wants county leaders to consider, but Hart told the supervisors last month that the Santa Cruz HSA had trouble with maintaining staffing levels necessary to provide adequate care when it ran the jail. McPherson believes the county jail wasn’t behind the times, but rather that it is struggling with “changing times.” “Our jail system in this county and everywhere else is discovering how to not only be a law enforcement, but also a medical treatment type of environment as well,” says McPherson, who encourages people to take tours of the jail to understand how it’s run. “We’re trying to update ourselves as well.”

the next five years, with an option for renewal every year. County officials say they want to make sure that CFMG gets certified from the Institute for Medical Quality before renewing again. The institute will lend added oversight to CFMG’s operations at the jail, says Board Chair Bruce McPherson. “It’s a very serious situation and I feel comfortable that we made the right choice,” he says, adding that the jail’s new policy is that anyone at the jail can request an inmate be transferred to the hospital. The contract was on the consent agenda, a spot reserved for noncontroversial votes, until a member of the public asked it to be pulled and discussed. Sheriff Jim Hart told the board he believes “CFMG is the best company available to provide services to the people in our jail facility.” Hart says the county initiated a request for proposals for medical service companies at the jail and fielded only two responses—one from CFMG and the other from a company called Corizon, which has had problems of its own. (Alameda County, for instance, just discontinued its contract with Corizon and opted instead for CFMG after Corizon appeared to mishandle an inmate’s case of severe asthma, resulting in his death.) Hart also notes that the county made robust changes to its inmate safety protocol, including a care program for incarcerated seniors, a suicide prevention team, a physical plan for the jail aimed at reducing potential hazards, and the meeting of jail authorities seven days a week to identify and manage highrisk patients. According to a search of court records on the federal and state court level in California, CFMG is a defendant in 83 different cases. The claims range from simple breaches of contract to major civil rights suits, asserting that inmates who died were denied appropriate medical care. One of the cases was filed by Krista DeLuca’s child in federal court this past June. Another case was filed in federal court in May by Lisa Allison, claiming Santa Cruz County Sheriff’s Office deputies stripped her naked and left her lying on a floor of the jail, where she suffered a severe medical

CIRCLE TIME Residents of Ben Lomond’s Holiday Cabins commune during its heyday in 1967. This photo appears in ‘Inside a Hippie Commune’ by Holly Harman. PHOTO: GORDON SCHATZ
Three new books recall the Summer of Love, and the hippies’ brief, shining moment of glory in Santa Cruz and beyond BY CHRISTINA WATERS
L
inaccessible mountain acres for those who needed to chill out (or flee the Establishment for one reason or another). Three new books offer firsthand perspectives and authentic analysis to the chorus of hippieera memoirs, as the summer of 2017 approaches, marking a halfcentury since the brief flowering of utopian ideal. Each, in its own way, serves as a scrapbook of the time. It’s worth noting that the halfmythic, half-prankster persona of Neal Cassady (immortalized by Jack Kerouac as Dean Moriarty) passes through each of these books. Cassady was the first sales clerk at the Hip Pocket Bookstore and a fixture at Ben Lomond’s Holiday Cabins as well as Kesey’s La Honda spread. Complex, drugdrenched, handsome, he was a one-man bridge from the Beat to the Hip era. Indefinable, yet omnipresent. “Trying to capture Neal with words is like trying to find the
baby Jesus in a Snow Globe,” former Merry Prankster Lee Quarnstrom told me recently. Clown prince and activist Wavy Gravy, a man for whom the hippie era never ended, also pranks his way through these memoirs, spreading joy and revolution wherever it was needed.
‘HIP SANTA CRUZ’ By the time the Hip Pocket Bookstore opened on Pacific Avenue in 1966, the tie-dye was cast. “That was the beginning,” says mathematician and hip-era chronicler Ralph Abraham. “The minute the Hip Pocket opened, that marked the real beginning of the Santa Cruz phase of hip culture.” “People came and sat on the floor, reading books, never buying any,” Abraham recalls of the Hip Pocket. “Which is why it soon went broke.” A hotbed of hip culture, Santa Cruz attracted the royalty of

ove and peace. Sex, drugs, and rock ’n’ roll. What else did we need? The Age of Aquarius was busy gearing up for its patchouli-scented 15 minutes, and California was the place to be. Ground zero of that backto-the-garden odyssey was the San Francisco Bay Area, with Santa Cruz and its surrounding mountains serving as the ultrahip backyard. Everyone who could roll a joint, hitchhike, and/or fake a laid-back attitude headed West in advance of the 1967 Summer of Love. Many arrived early, already attuned to the spectacular setting, weather and vibes of our seaside paradise. Along with other communes dotting the West, such as Taos and El Rito in New Mexico, the Hog Farm in Sonoma, and Ken Kesey’s digs in La Honda, Santa Cruz had already established itself as a home base of alternative lifestyles, with plenty of shady canyons and

the drugs and music scene. “In the spring of 1966, a benefit concert was held at the civic auditorium in Santa Cruz. [Felton dentist] Dick Smith and his wife were among the organizers, and he also provided the light show,” recalls eye-witness Doug Hanson.* “The first act was Big Brother and the Holding Company, sans Janis [Joplin]—she was back in Texas on one of her first failed attempts to dry out. The headliner was Jefferson Airplane. Dick Smith, who embedded gems in the dental work of Ken Kesey and Wavy Gravy, also set up prototype light shows at
The Barn in Scotts Valley, another venue attracting local hippies, acidheads, and road bands traveling between L.A. and San Francisco. “I knew that moment was miraculous at the time. Absolutely,” says Abraham, whose cavernous California Avenue Victorian mansion was both a communal household and crash pad for dozens of hardcore searchers. “People my age were more aware, because we were older and had a history both before and after that moment. The younger people were too stoned to realize it in the same way.”

“It ended because it was unsustainable. A lot of people had enormous amounts of pain. The drugs covered it up, but then once the moment was over, the pain returned.” — RALPH ABRAHAM

In retrospect, Abraham believes, “it ended because it was unsustainable. A lot of people had enormous amounts of pain. The drugs covered it up, but then once the moment was over, the pain returned.” Abraham, who had left a tenured teaching job at Princeton to settle in Santa Cruz, brought with him a wife and children—“which was very unusual for a communal house.” Hip Santa Cruz (2016) offers rare first-person accounts of Santa Cruz during the 1960s, including Abraham’s own ambitious trips through spiritualism, psychedelics, blackjack, teaching in London, and being homeless in India and Amsterdam after his wife joined a southern California cult. Eventually he returned to teaching at UCSC, pioneering theoretical research in fractals and chaos theory before his retirement. “Drugs defined the culture. The arrival of cocaine and heroin marked the end of the hip era, though lots of that era’s cultural changes still survive—psychedelics as therapeutic, gay liberation, feminism, organic farming, and yoga,” says Abraham. The golden moment of the mid1960s, says Abraham, was like an island with its own ecology, myths, folk music, styles of dress, ethics, and food preferences. “Once the eruptions of the 1960s subsided, we were a cultural island peopled by those who remembered psychedelics as a supremely positive lifetransforming time.” The metaphorical mainland,
many thousands of miles away, “was peopled by those who missed all that, or had rejected and regretted those times,” he says. Calling himself a “vegetarian, animal-loving, recycling, rock-’n’roll-dancing hippie,” Abraham says he’s “still seeking the company of his fellow islanders, and practicing compassion for those stranded on the mainland.”
‘INSIDE A HIPPIE COMMUNE’ Gathering the vibrant memories of her almost fairytale youth into a photographic scrapbook of the hippie flowering, Holly Harman opens a window on the simpler, back-to-the-land era of Ben Lomond’s Holiday Cabins commune, circa 1966-1968. Filled with personal photographs taken in the San Lorenzo Valley, Inside a Hippie Commune documents the gathering of those on mellow vision quests determined to live together, grow their own food, and let each afternoon unfold in a haze of sweet weed. Harman’s mother had started the nearby Bridge Foundation art school, so Holly had access to the communal cottages while she was still in high school. “We had the art school, then we moved to a ranch house near the commune. I started hanging out in 1966 first at Boxer Apartments then moved to Holidays,” Harman says. The Holiday Cabins occupied a secluded property bordering the San Lorenzo River. The pastoral, ramshackle collection

of dwellings in Ben Lomond had been “sitting empty” for some time before it became a place to hang out or simply pass through on the part of luminaries like the Grateful Dead, Timothy Leary, the Jefferson Airplane, and Ken Kesey’s Pranksters. The site flourished for a year and a half but began to unravel once a salacious Los Angeles Oracle article drew public attention—and wannabe hippies—to the commune from all over the country. And the Summer of Love brought more, not all of whom were as interested in “love and peace” as the original
mountain dwellers. “Everyone fixed their cabins, working on the foundations and walls, growing gardens, keeping it nice,” Harman recalls of Holidays’ zenith. “The day’s work was planned together around a morning campfire. Everybody gathered, held hands and chanted “Om” before deciding how the day would unfold. The commune-dwellers worked on renovating their cabins after breakfast, which, she recalls, was usually whole grains and fruit. “Then it was crafts, gardening, playing music, smoking weed,

Lots of tie-dyed T-shirts, leather vests and long skirts. Glimpsed from the 21st century, it all looks rather tame; the hair was not as long as many had boasted. “There was a lot of spirituality
up and down Alba Road, and a hip scene in this vortex—Ben Lomond, La Honda and Santa Cruz,” Harman maintains. “But after a year, things began to change. The people who came in then were all about drugs,” Harman says regretfully. “I think they came because the cabins were so accessible, so close to the highway.” The original hippies, the ones
who had gardened and renovated and been content with brown rice and granola, began to leave. The large-scale glossy pages of Harman’s book are filled with newspaper clippings, oral histories, and personal photographs of now far-flung participants. “Some left for careers, some wanted to go back to school, some to build families. I look back and
New Mexico and its rugged terrain has long beckoned renegade artists and escapees from the bleakness of cities, establishment jobs, and bourgeois codes. Providing haunting imagery and anthropological context, Benjamin Klein’s newly published book Irwin Klein and the New Settlers, offers gritty insight into a harsher landscape of bohemian lifestyle. Lacking the sunny seaside temperament of Santa Cruz, the El Rito settlement was challenged by New Mexico’s high elevations and hard winters. The volume of blackand-white photographs taken by Irwin Klein between 1967 and 1971, records the efforts of counterculture settlers to El Rito, New Mexico—“dropouts, utopians, and renegades,” (in the photographer’s words), who did their own thing for as long as they could, before mostly moving on and growing up. El Rito already had a cluster of communal dwellings before the diaspora of the 1960s, when Irwin Klein joined his brother Alan and those Irwin called “the children of the urban middle class.” Through El Rito came Beat poets, and archetypal gurus of psychedelia such as Wavy Gravy and the Diggers. Klein’s stark images are gorgeously mounted in this University of Nebraska Press volume and accompanied by essays from his nephew, historian and UCSC alumnus Benjamin Klein, who helped guarantee that the important visual legacy his uncle never lived to see exhibited will ensure his place in American documentary art. “Village life in the mountains
“Village life in the mountains of northern New Mexico offered a chance to see how it felt to make it on their own in a physical and human landscape that seemed to come straight out of peyote dreams and illuminated Hollywood Western movie stills.” — BENJAMIN KLEIN flocks of goats, and the unfocused body language of marijuana-laced torpor. Dorothea Lange and Brassaï haunt these compelling images of a powerful, yet fleeting, moment of baby-boomer youth. Embraced by incisive essays, Irwin Klein and the New Settlers displays the counterculture in New Mexico as yearningly distinct from—yet subliminally joined to—the hippie flowering in Santa Cruz. Together this trio of new books offer many paths back to an indelible time. *Doug Hansen, memoir. ralphabraham.org/1960s/

of northern New Mexico offered a chance to see how it felt to make it on their own in a physical and human landscape that seemed to come straight out of peyote dreams and illuminated Hollywood Western movie stills,” writes editor Klein and collaborator David Farber. Indeed, the images are filled as much with Wild West bravura as they are with hardship, loneliness, and communal struggle. The volume’s spearhead and editor, Benjamin Klein, came to Santa Cruz after growing up in various communal settings, including The Canyon in the Oakland Hills. “The book’s challenge was reconstructing my uncle’s movements,” Klein says. Wanting to become a photographer, he had dropped out of grad school. But the big picture magazines, Look and Life were on the wane. “Earning a living as a photographer just wasn’t viable,” he says. After a stint at San Francisco’s Zen Center, he stopped at El Rito on his way back to the East Coast. “It’s right next to Carson National Park,” Klein points out. “Winters are hard. It’s remote. It’s impoverished. And it was violent. Shoot-outs were common.” It was not the love-peace world of John Lennon. “Irwin was older than most of the settlers, he wasn’t 18. He came through, hung out, visited, and then moved on,” says Klein.

Yuriko Yamaguchi-Kerby OWNER, BUZEN JAPANESE FOOD Yuriko was born in Japan in 1933 and somehow managed to survive WWII and the devastating famine that followed. Her parents were rice farmers and, at a very young age, she would cook and deliver food to the less fortunate. She says this is where she found her passion for cooking for others, which became her life’s calling. In the 1980s, her dream of opening a restaurant became a reality. At Buzen she prepared and served meals to many loyal customers and after years of hard work, she retired. Since then she has survived two bouts of cancer, which doctors had said she would not survive. During her treatment earlier this year, she got up early every morning to prepare meals for the hospital staff.
It has been great to meet so many wonderful people in this short time and I look forward to meeting many more of you.
Yuriko has now reopened Buzen with a different vision. She has created fast, fresh, healthy and affordable meals that people can grab and go. Visit Buzen inside Grady’s Market, across from Gayle’s Bakery. After all these years, she is where she wants to be - in a kitchen, smiling and cooking her heart out.

VITAMIN CENTER
I was raised by parents who had the utmost interest in health and healthy living. My father, Jack Macdonald of the Vitamin Center, kept us current with the health movement. Over the years I rebelled and moved on my own path. My own health started to deteriorate in my mid-twenties and I found myself seeking a holistic approach to my aliments. Western medicine provided me with a number of friendly doctors who could not address my symptoms. After the birth of my fourth child my health was at its worst. I ended up in the ER where a very helpful doctor suggested I had autoimmune thyroid disease. This was a turning point for me as I realized I must advocate for myself and my health. I began doing my own research, reading, and interviewing. I became a patient of some phenomenal practitioners and my health began to return. Working at the Vitamin Center I spoke with many customers whose health was failing. One of the things I noticed was a commonality between a person’s perception of eating healthy, unmanaged stress, lack of sleep and failing health. Many people want a quick fix supplement and fail to do the work necessary for good health. So I went to Bauman College to learn more about diet and health with the intent of sharing and teaching people how to make positive changes in their life that would reflect in their health. Jack’s supplement knowledge and my nutrition knowledge make us a great team.

I look at “the big picture” by maintaining a “macro” view to make sure important issues are getting addressed. My broad and balanced approach addresses four key elements-- protection, accumulation, income and legacy by asking the important questions: • Are your loved ones sufficiently taken care of if something happens to you? • Are you saving enough? • What’s the best use of your available dollars today and in your future? • Are you well positioned for upcoming taxes?

What does competitive tennis, art galleries, high tech, and event planning have in common? Nothing, except, I have experienced passion and success in each of these fields and I have used that diverse set of talents to create a unique bridal boutique in Capitola. I started this business as a result of getting married last year and having an extremely difficult time finding the right gown. In fact, I never found it. Having owned an art gallery in Carmel, I see fashion as wearable art and I delight in finding gowns with amazing textures, details and lines. Besides carrying highly regarded U.S. designers, I take great pride in carrying independent designers from around the globe. Their designs are fresh, innovative and customizable. Brides literally have the option to design their own dress! My goal was to create a boutique that fostered an intimate bridal shopping experience, a place that feels like your own private bridal party. Many times I have heard, “This was the perfect bridal experience!”. For me, that makes it all worth it.

<32 haired artist. “In Japan, it is a practice of repairing and stitching and transforming rags into useful items—bags, futon covers, clothing.” Alexander deepened her acquaintance with boro while traveling to Japan on her 2014-15 Rydell Visual Arts Fellowship. The tradition of layered and stitched creations now forms the heart of her many popular classes. An example displayed on her studio work table is worn yet sumptuous, a small inventory of indigo cotton shapes and stitches that possess a distinctive history and undeniable beauty. I run my hands over a small book of stitched linen in Alexander’s tiny workroom. Its archive of stitches and appliqued shapes feels like a form of braille, a handsewn legacy of time and memory. The book’s colored shapes are made from recycled book covers. Alexander, who works as a reference librarian at Cabrillo College, rescued many of the books that had been withdrawn from circulation—they are stacked along one wall of her studio—and has found ways to recirculate their faded beauty. “My work is a meditation on those past items,” she says. Inspired by the work she did for her Rydell exhibition two years ago, Alexander began “rethinking” the world of Japanese boro textiles. “I started ripping off the covers of the old books and then mounting them on pages of European linen that I love,” she says. The book colors provided the palette. The collection—ironically entitled KEEP, from a discarded library stamp she found—amplifies the dignity of the discarded. In her classes, Alexander introduces students to “a very simple vocabulary” of stitches, something she also does at workshops she gives all over the country. At a recent workshop called Shakerag in Tennessee, a fellow instructor encouraged her to “embed the place” into her work. “So I dragged my pieces of linen through the dirt, in the water, incorporating the place into it,” she says. Growing up in Los Altos, Alexander went to UCLA on a competitive swimming scholarship. Swimming was a repetitive activity too, Alexander recalls, as we study the
repetitive machine stitchery that defines and shapes her latest wall hangings. She eventually chose art history as her college major, intending to go into design. One day it just hit her. “I need to make!” So she moved to New York and worked in art galleries before heading to Boston for a master’s degree in library science. “Then I discovered book arts at Harvard’s Houghton Library,” she says, her eyes widening. “Then bookbinding.” Alexander and her young son settled in Santa Cruz in 1999 when she began working at Cabrillo’s library. Her parttime library work allowed her the freedom to explore her own practice and begin teaching book arts. Flipping through the soft fabric pages of a boro sampler book, she agrees that books are tricky to display. Most of her work is formed through layers of fabric, usually starting with a mull backing onto which are sewn more layers and pieces. “When I work I go into a zone,” she says. “I’m in a fugue state.” Alexander admits that her real love is “making the book. It’s precious and intimate and invites one-onone viewing. A book is physical and personal,” she says. She is also enamored of the Japanese tradition of recycling bits of cloth. “Boro is still speaking to me,” she says, smiling. “I love its evidence of past history and repair. Taking the old and combining it, and making it mine.” Currently, she’s working on a subseries of her ongoing Bibliomuse project. Taking graphic motifs from “nerdy old books,” Alexander creates stencils based on that motif or logo. She deconstructs the motif, cuts stencils, inks them or block prints them, giving the overall piece a visual harmony. “The project then becomes a memorial to the original book,” she says. Alexander’s patience and artistry have attracted a following. “Now that the boro workshop has taken off, I’m invited to teach it all over the country,” Alexander says with a grin. “It’s become so popular—it speaks to people.” Find out more about Jody Alexander and her upcoming classes at wishiwashistudio.com and at jalexbooks.com.

orn in WWI-era Zurich, the Dada movement was the art world’s response to the senseless, propaganda-driven slaughter that—in the name of progress and other such capitalist and nationalist ideals—permeated those times like mustard gas. (Sound familiar?) Decidedly anti-aesthetic, antirational, anti-Dada, even, it was a movement that revelled in the absurd. With pieces like Marcel Duchamp’s porcelain urinal entitled “Fountain,” and Jean Arp’s “Collage with Squares Arranged According to the Laws of Chance,” Dada attempted to shock society into self-awareness by mirroring its droid-like absurdity back upon the hypnotized masses. If changing the world was impossible, Dadaism at least existed to thumb an upside-down nose at “high art,” dissolving, with an acidic disregard, the conventional notions that propped it up. Now, on the 100th anniversary of Dada, nine artists reflect on the spirit and relevance of the movement in the Radius Gallery’s show Simple Life Instructions: d@d@ atR@dius. “Any possible similarity between that demagogue-embracing, empire-

FACE OFF With his raw new record ‘Atrocity Exhibition’ set for release, Danny Brown plays the Catalyst on Wednesday, Oct. 12.
Everybody Hurts OCTOBER 5-11, 2016 | GOODTIMES.SC | SANTACRUZ.COM
Danny Brown dives in to personal pain on his new record, and surfaces with a masterpiece BY AARON CARNES
36
I
want to give Danny Brown a hug. I’ve just listened five times in a row to his new record Atrocity Exhibition, on which he spends nearly half the album talking about dealing with drug addiction (“I’ma wash away my problems/with this bottle of Henny/Anxiety got the best of me/so popping them xannies/ might need rehab”). The rest is about sex, in a not-so-sexy way—including cringe-worthy stories about his own erectile dysfunction—and occasionally he’ll throw in a sort-ofoptimistic platitude (“I’ma give ’em hell for it/for whatever it’s worth”). I’m not sure what I expected from the rapper for his fourth album. The signs of a crisis were all there: shortly after the release of his previous
record, Old, he went on Twitter and posted about his anxiety and depression getting worse. “Ya’ll think I do drugs cause it’s fun … I would have no other way to escape. Nobody cares if I live or die. That’s the bottom line.” Earlier this year, on Vice’s “Detroit” episode of Noisey, he talked about how fame has only increased his drug intake. He was cavalier about it—and maybe that thick fur coat made it hard to take him seriously—but why didn’t we see it? “My whole shit has always been about drugs. Now I have so much pressure … it’s just a way for me to cope with your job … art imitates life.” Brown’s hints about Atrocity Exhibition leading up to its release were confusing at the time, and are
even more baffling now that I’ve heard it. He stated that his biggest inspirations for it were artists like Talking Heads, Björk, and Radiohead. For the life of me, I can’t hear these influences at all. It feels like a red herring now, but the resulting album is much better and weirder than what I’d imagine these New Wave and alt-rock influences would have on the rapper. It’s the result of three long years in which he supposedly barely left the house, and toiled through hundreds of beats, picking out the most out-there ones he could find. But then, his beats have always been left of center, even by alternative rap standards. 2013’s Old incorporated elements of EDM, trap and techno.
2011’s XXX is a lot-fi, electro-trashy affair. On Atrocity Exhibition, his beats are stripped-back, downtempo, airy grooves, the likes of which I’ve never heard in hip-hop before. The couple of up-tempo songs on the album are stressful pulses of electro-punk that almost sound like they could have been squeezed onto Old in the “deep cut” section, or used as B-sides. He unloads right at the top of the record over what sounds like a latenight desert drive Yo La Tengo song. “I’m sweating like I’m in a rave/been in this room for three days/Think I’m hearing voices/Paranoid and think I’m seeing ghost-es.” The song title is appropriately titled “Downward Spiral,” which may or may not be a Nine Inch Nails reference. The darkness never really relents. At least on Old, he might talk about being 7 and watching drug fiends trying to light up a rock on the stove in one song, but in the next he’d talk about popping Molly in a way that at least sounded like he was having fun. There’s little hope on Atrocity Exhibition, and I feel bad for him by the end of the record. Still, as brilliant as Old and XXX are, compared to the masterpiece that is Atrocity Exhibition, they both seem like relics from rap’s old school. This is Danny Brown at his most creative, and rawest. “Every album up until now, I’ve been trying to make this album,” Brown told NME. He went on to explain that he couldn’t have even imagined how to pull off rapping over some of these beats until now. Like his down-to-the-marrow, uncomfortably honest lyrics, his flow is Brown at his most direct and straightforward, an odd juxtaposition to the strange music he uses as his springboard. Like Chance the Rapper’s Coloring Book earlier this year, Atrocity Exhibition is a phenomenal redefining of what rap music is capable of being. Kanye may have made it safe for rappers to be emotional, but Danny Brown has one-upped him. He’s shown that you can come from the same harsh streets that birthed braggadocio gangsta rap, and instead produce the kind of painfully honest true-life account that is much more Bukowski than Eazy-E.

LOCAL BAND
APPLE CITY SLOUGH BAND The Apple City Slough Band grew out of a regular Friday night Corralitos jam party that often runs until the early hours of the morning. Jamie Norton is the lead singer and rhythm guitarist, with Danny Grilli on lead guitar, Lindsey Bearden on keys, David Ott on bass, Bobby Yliz also on rhythm guitar, and Sparky serving as both drummer and “crew dad.” All six members have full-time day jobs, so they gig when they can, and keep things casual.
OCTOBER 5-11, 2016 | GOODTIMES.SC | SANTACRUZ.COM
“It’s an interesting mix of people, but it’s super family. I walked in so easily, we just vibe that way,” says Norton, who’s originally from Boston. He describes their sound as “Americana mountain jam band, but more Americana than straight-out classic rock.” Every Apple City show blends a mix of CCR, Grateful Dead and Phish covers with several of the band’s original tunes.
50
“We’ve asked people who know us well to give some constructive criticism, and they always say, ‘It’s obvious when you’re playing your own song, cause you’re so much more lively. But when it’s a cover you look like you’re going through the motions.’ So they can see it in our beings when we play our own tunes.” The Slough Band is usually well-received at biker bars, campgrounds, and the Poet & Patriot: “My favorite shows are always at the Poet, and maybe that’s ’cause it’s the most like a Boston bar,” Norton says. “The way it’s set up, the crowd is right on you, people can’t disassociate. And our music is good for people who want to have fun and interact.” KATIE SMALL INFO: 9 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 8. Catalyst, 1011 Pacific Ave., Santa Cruz. Free. 423-1338.

AMENDOLA VS. BLADES
TIME SPENT DRIVING
Straight off the high of opening for Wilco at the Fillmore, the remarkable Berkeley duo of drummer Scott Amendola and Hammond B-3 organist Wil Blades is touring the West Coast to mark the release of the debut album Amendola Vs. Blades Greatest Hits. Both are masters of the particular demands of their stripped-down duo, as Amendola has logged thousands of miles with guitarist Charlie Hunter, and Blades toured and recorded with Medeski Martin and Woods’ drummer Billy Martin. Together, Amendola and Blades have honed an irresistible deep-pocket repertoire of sly funk, wicked shuffles, and slow-burning blues, with a dose of Ellingtonia thrown in for imaginative flights. Together, these two heavyweights pack a serious wallop. ANDREW GILBERT INFO: 7 p.m. Kuumbwa Jazz, 320-2 Cedar St., Santa Cruz. $20/adv, $25/door. 427-2227.
Nineties emo bands are reuniting—not the mainstream, poppy, not-actually-emo groups, but the underground heart-on-the-sleeve sub-branch of punk rock that was actually really amazing (before the radio destroyed it). The Santa Cruz band back then was Time Spent Driving. It broke up in 2003, but has been playing again ever since 2012. This isn’t a nostalgia-dripping reunion—TSD is back and creating some really interesting new music. AARON CARNES INFO: 9 p.m. Crepe Place, 1134 Soquel Ave., Santa Cruz. $10. 429-6994.
HIP-HOP
HOPSIN One of the more complicated characters in the modern hip-hop scene, Hopsin is the stage name of L.A. native Marcus Hopson. Originally signed to the notorious Ruthless Records, Hopsin rose to fame through a series
of successful YouTube videos, most of which have several million views. His breakout moment can be traced back to the 2010 release of “Sag My Pants,” the first of multiple songs in which Hopsin disses rappers more famous than himself—including Lil Wayne, Drake, Soulja Boy, Lupe Fiasco, Tyler the Creator, Rick Ross and more. Hopsin has been arrested at his own shows, has cancelled performances due to depression, and his aggressive and explicit lyrics boast a higher-than-average amount of sexist and violent language.

DEL REY Sometime in the late-’90s, the old So Say We cafe hosted then-Santa Cruzan Del Rey for an unforgettable music experience.

AMERICANA
MOSHE VILOZNY When local world beat group Universal Language formed in the early 2000s, it started out as a stripped-down acoustic band. Quickly it evolved into a full-on dance ensemble and took the city by storm. Lead singer Moshe Vilozny is back, this time as a solo artist, and with an emphasis on those delightful acoustic instruments again. Folks that loved Vilozny’s songwriting in Universal Language will be quite pleased with his new music. The influences lean much heavier into the folk, country, blues realm, and it’s still danceable. This show celebrates the release of his solo debut record, Lost and Found. AC INFO: 7 p.m. Moe’s Alley, 1535 Commercial Way, Santa Cruz. $9/adv, $12/door. 479-1854.
ROCHES Folk-rock group the Roches is a long-running favorite of contemporary acoustic music fans. Established in the early-’70s, the sibling trio comprising Maggie, Terre, and Suzzy Roche became a folk music staple and, for the last four decades, has shared its harmony-rich, lighthearted approach to music with audiences around the world. The current incarnation of the family band sees Suzzy and her daughter Lucy Wainwright teaming up to create award-winning music and a stage show that includes storytelling, humor and fantastic family harmonies. CJ INFO: 2 p.m. Don Quixote’s, 6275 Hwy. 9, Felton. $15. 335-2800.
SWAMP ROCK
MARC BROUSSARD Marc Broussard spent his formative years in Louisiana. That probably doesn’t need stating since his music reeks of the bayou: a mix of rock, funk, R&B, blues, and Cajun music. He—like other Louisiana natives—gets this blend in the way unique to the re-
gion. It’s not multiple genres deliberately mashed together, but rather just different pieces of the same puzzle placed together seamlessly. Broussard can croon his ass off, and restraint is his secret weapon. His most recent record was last year’s Magnolias & Mistletoe, a Christmas album. AC

CHRIS SMITHER
WINSTON GARRETT
One of the most skillful roots guitarists around, the New Orleans-raised Chris Smither ups the ante by writing songs of profound depth, insight and brilliant simplicity. He then filters them through his perfectly weathered and aged voice for maximum impact as he blends country blues and folk music with tales of love, heartbreak and everything in-between. As one reviewer puts it, “Smither is an American original … and one of the absolute best singer-songwriters in the world.” CJ INFO: 7:30 p.m. Kuumbwa Jazz, 320-2 Cedar St., Santa Cruz. $25/gen, $40/gold. 427-2227.

On Oct. 16, comedian Ian Harris heads to the Rio Theatre to record an hour-long television special. Dubbed ExtraOrdinary, the show is a blend of satire, hilarious impressions, clever quips, science and “cutting-edge comedy.” Born and raised in Santa Cruz, Harris is an award-winning comedian, director and filmmaker who has dozens of credits to his name. His television appearances include Jimmy Kimmel Live, Comedy Central and his own show, Critical & Thinking. Garnering comparisons to Lenny Bruce, Bill Maher and George Carlin, Harris skillfully weaves together thought-provoking insights with laugh-out-loud humor. CAT JOHNSON

Pieces don’t quite fit in J. Hogan’s revenge comedy ‘The Dressmaker’ BY LISA JENSEN

t starts out with a classic premise: prodigal daughter makes a splash in the world, and revisits the podunk town that spawned her to settle scores. But the patchwork pieces of social satire, slapstick comedy, love story, whodunit, and tragedy don’t quite fit together in The Dressmaker. There are several moments when I actually laughed out loud, and others that are touchingly heartfelt. But as a complete design, the filmmakers never quite make it work. Based on the 2000 novel by Australian author Rosalie Ham, the movie is directed by Jocelyn Moorhouse, from a script she co-wrote with her husband, filmmaker P. J. Hogan (Muriel’s Wedding). The
story is set in a crumbling, dustchoked rural town at the end of the train line, far out in the Australian outback. With its enormous skies and parched landscape, the town looks like an abandoned set from a vintage Western movie. One night in 1951, a lone woman steps off the midnight train with a Singer sewing machine, a cigarette case, a drop-dead chic outfit, and a quest. She is Tilly (formerly Myrtle) Dunnage (Kate Winslet), who was exiled from town under sinister circumstances as a 10-year-old girl. She’s returned to check up on her mother, who’s become a curmudgeonly old recluse the locals call “Mad Molly” (Judy Davis). Although her addled mum claims to
not know who she is, Tilly cleans up her neglected sty of a house and sets up shop as a seamstress—drawing from the experience she’s acquired in the fashion houses of Paris, London, and Spain. But there’s more than filial duty to Tilly’s unexpected visit. Rumor has it that she committed a murder when she was a child; Tilly doesn’t remember it, and her mum isn’t much help, but the town’s haughtiest movers and shakers (such as they are) still condemn her for it. Her only ally is Sgt. Farat (Hugo Weaving), the town’s only constable, who befriends her because he has a secret fetish for fine fabrics. Nevertheless, when Tilly whips up a gown that transforms mousy Gert (Sarah Snook) into a ravishing
beauty, even the snootiest local women start clamoring to join her client list. Meanwhile, Tilly is romanced by sexy footballer Teddy (Liam Hemsworth), eldest son of a neighboring farm family, who claims he doesn’t believe in the “curse” she thinks haunts her life. There are some lovely moments. When Gert wows the locals at a dance in a gown concocted by Tilly, and a woman coos, “She looks like a movie star,” Moorhouse cuts to Gloria Swanson at her most psycho in Sunset Boulevard, playing at the local movie house. When Teddy takes off his shirt to be measured for a suit, Tilly and Molly’s disparate reactions are pretty funny (although the most entertaining expressions of glee I heard were from the audience). Winslet is worth watching, as always. Her Tilly is as hard-boiled as she needs to be to get to the truth of her past, but still vulnerable about what she might discover. The scene where she disrupts a neighborhood football match by appearing in a scarlet sheath dress is a little corny, but Winslet rocks it. But, like a pair of stiletto heels in the desert, the movie can’t quite keep its footing. While we keep expecting the story to go deeper, the plotting and the psychology remain pretty much on the surface—and mostly played for laughs. A couple of gruesome deaths, of the black-comedy variety, contribute to the cartoon atmosphere, so we’re left floundering the one or two times that the movie switches gears and expects to be taken seriously. One might argue that, in real life, comedy and tragedy exist sideby-side, but nothing else in this movie resembles real life. Finally, the slapstick gooniness of the townsfolk make us wonder if confronting them was worth all the trouble for Tilly—the Paris couturier—to return at all. When a movie invites you to question its very reason for being, there’s something wrong in the design. THE DRESSMAKER **1/2 (out of four) With Kate Winslet, Judy Davis, Hugo Weaving, and Liam Hemsworth. Written by P. J. Hogan and Jocelyn Moorhouse. From the novel by Rosalie Ham. Directed by Jocelyn Moorhouse. A Broadgreen Pictures release. Rated R. 119 minutes.

Controversial ‘Birth of a Nation’ attempts to paint a fuller picture of a real American horror story BY RICHARD VON BUSACK
F
ilmmakers who serve as director, writer and actor are usually more talented in one aspect of their hyphenate than the others. The Birth of a Nation, by the much-hyped hyphenate Nate Parker, is best in one aspect: Parker has an actorly presence that makes this film immediate and powerful. It’s the story of Nat Turner’s slave rebellion in the early 1830s, which terrified the South. When Turner and his band were broken up, about 60 white civilians were dead. Turner grows from a houseboy on the estate that gave him his name. When there’s a reversal of fortune on the plantation,
Nat (played in adulthood by Parker) is sent into the fields to have his hands torn by the sharp cotton thorns. Parker absorbs all this American nightmare with a grin of disbelief masquerading as a forced harmless smile. Parker’s Turner seems to be discovering the world of slavery as we watch—learning all the pitfalls that keep even a well-meaning, gentle slave from peace or safety. Turner was taught how to read, and what the masters gave him to read was key to his revolt. These slaveholders, so enamored of the Bible, never considered how their slaves might have understood the more genocidal passages in 1 Samuel.
Turner’s radicalization is balanced by the story of Turner’s master, Samuel Turner (Armie Hammer), who declines through loss, bad luck and drink. Frederick Douglass wrote that slavery poisoned both the slave and the master, and Birth of a Nation excels, like no movie I’ve seen, at illustrating the poison’s double effect. In the guarded, eventually shattered friendship between Nat and his master, there’s a pang of loss: hurt for Nat’s betrayal and sorrow, as well as a lesser pang for a spineless, solitary white man who could have had a companion instead of a captive. That’s not to say that the tragedy of slavery fell equally on the whites, and
the atrocities are here to prove it— first, in one real horror-story sequence in a hot-box shed, and the punishment of Turner in the pillory. The movie has more appeal in the subtle reveal of decadence than—as Parker thinks—in the huge manipulative outrages. Worst is the savaging of Turner’s wife by a small group of white men. People can see this unexploitative filmed attack and its tragic aftermath, and decide for themselves what Parker’s feelings are about rape—it’s now well-known that Parker was accused of that crime in college. In the famous William Styron novel, it was Turner’s mother who was raped. Styron has been praised for rescuing a then-obscure rebel from forgotten history, but in both this 2016 movie and the 1968 Pulitzer Prize-winner, a sexual assault gins the rebel up into revolution. Parker overestimates the length of time it takes to get an audience ready for vengeance. Most moviegoers are as eager to see slaveholders get what’s coming to them as they are to see Nazis paid back. Turner may have been a revolutionary who grasped a martyr’s crown, or a religious fanatic who saw signs in the heavens and heard the voice of God. Birth of a Nation is so much of a Christian movie that it’s being advertised as enlightening spiritual entertainment. Parker may have oversimplified this rebel, the way Jesus is always oversimplified in a movie. It may not be clear to the people who are most rapt about Birth of a Nation that you could make a movie about an Islamic suicide bomber just like this, with these many provocations and a finale of slow-mo violence. For its weaknesses, Birth of a Nation is an important corrective, necessary since such serious nonsense is still talked about slavery more than 150 years since it ended. Take, for example, Bill O’Reilly’s opinion that the slaves who built the White House were “well-fed.” The point isn’t that, at some points in history, certain American slaves ate well. The point is that if you own a man, you can feed him as much or as little as you like. BIRTH OF A NATION R; 120 Min. Directed by Nate Parker. Starring Nate Parker, Gabrielle Union, Armie Hammer, Aja Naomi King, and Colman Domingo.

Santa Cruz Heritage Food Project delves into the rich history of food culture in Santa Cruz BY CHRISTINA WATERS
H
appy 150th, Santa Cruz! One special presentation at the Santa Cruz County History Fair at Louden Nelson Community Center this weekend will showcase the history of our local foods and crops. Even serial mayor Cynthia Mathews is understandably high on The Heritage Food Project, and shares their informative website, scheritagefood.com. Foodies won’t want to miss the 1:30 p.m. presentation, “Harvesting Our Heritage: Telling a Sweet and Savory History of Santa Cruz County,” by Sierra Perry Ryan
and Jody Biergiel Colclough—who co-founded the Heritage Food Project four years ago—as well as Elizabeth Birnbaum, and Katie Hansen who joined the project in 2013. Ryan explains that the Project includes a book, expected to launch in July 2017, filled with lore, recipes and local food history. The project’s historians, or “heritagistas” as they call themselves, combed through archives, discovering fascinating histories and recipes along the way. The Baldwin collection at the Museum of Art & History, for example, yielded “a home economics notebook of a student at Santa Cruz
High in 1922,” Ryan says. “We used their strawberry shortcake recipe in the book.” Admission to the various History Fair events is free, and the action begins at noon on Saturday, Oct. 8 at Louden Nelson Community Center, at the corner of Laurel and Center streets. Come by to hear about the history of Santa Cruz seen through the lens of berries and apples, dairies, vineyards and regional wines. And artichokes, Brussels sprouts and dryfarmed tomatoes. The Project explores our signature foods, how they came to be planted, and why they blossomed into our favorite harvests.
This just in: local gals make awardwinning dishes! Ace home gardener, preserver and cook Dee Vogel told me that on a visit to the Santa Cruz County Fair a few weeks back she discovered that her plum and chocolate jam had won First Prize. “And so did the tomato jam, and so did my gluten-free (GF) walnut squares,” she says. Vogel used her Great Aunt Helen’s recipe for the walnut squares, substituting GF flour mix for regular flour. “And [drumroll please], my pickled green beans got the second place in the Ball contest,” she said, via email. “Apparently if your preserved item is canned in a Ball brand jar, you are automatically entered in the Ball contest. Who knew?” Having tasted Vogel’s tomato jam and the odd-sounding, but sumptuous plum and chocolate jam, I agree 100 percent with the judges. “We knew this stuff was good,” admits Vogel, “but now we have the full authority of the County Fair Board behind us.” Vogel is not alone. Bonny Doon artist Linda Brackenbury surprised even her family by taking a blue ribbon at the aforementioned County Fair for her judge-pleasing apple pie. Possibly the most challenging accomplishment for a home baker—a great apple pie.
ONLY IN JERSEY?
Last week at the Jersey Shore, I stumbled upon an entire half-aisle devoted to GF products at the Acme supermarket in Manahawkin. Coming from what we all think of as the epicenter of gluten-free consciousness (Santa Cruz), I was blown away. Better than that, I discovered a new Pamela’s glutenfree product: the addictively chewy, nutty, delicious Whenever Bar. We loved the Oat Raisin Walnut Spice version, but we adored the outrageously delicious Oat Cranberry Almond bar. Studded with cranberries and crunchy almonds, plus GF oats, chia seeds and very lightly sweetened with agave, they are incredibly delicious and filling. Life-sustaining and a mere 180 calories. I’ve been looking through our local markets but still can’t find the GF Pamela’s Whenever Bar.

Italian groceries and deli items in East Cliff BY AARON CARNES
Original Microbrewery Tour
L
ocal lovers of Italian cuisine are likely already aware of East Cliff’s Lago di Como Ristorante. Now, the restaurant’s owners Giovanni Spanu and Mary Ellen Salciccia-Spanu have joined forces with John Battista to purchase the grocery store next door, reopening it as Tutto Fresco. While groceries are a focal point, they also offer fresh, hot Italian food to go, as well as imported Italian groceries that might be hard to find elsewhere. We spoke with Battista to get the scoop on all of their tasty treats, which hopefully includes some gelato, if you know what I mean.

JOHN BATTISTA: We’re a grocery store and a deli with an Italian spin. I don’t know if you’re familiar with the place that was here before. It was kind of a rundown, dirty market. We took over that market and cleaned it up, and turned it into a grocery store. We have your typical things like ketchup and mayonnaise and crackers and bread, but we also have fresh-cut lunch meat. We make paninis and pizza. We bake bread and pastries every day. We serve gelato. We have
exotic oils and pastas. We’re not carrying convenience store energy drinks, we’re carrying imported French sodas. We make meals to go, and espressos and cappuccinos. You can come here and get a half-gallon of milk, and get a panino.
Is there any overlap between Lago di Como and Tutto Fresco? There is some overlap. Giovanni is doing very well with his business. You can get a container of his pesto here. There are some things we cook specifically here; for example, the pizza oven in his restaurant is a $50,000 pizza oven that fires at 800 degrees. We don’t have that here, so we make a thicker pizza. There, it’s thin crust Neapolitan style. Over here it’s more Sicilian-style pizza. He uses dry pasta over there, just because that’s how his restaurant is set up. We use fresh pastas. So we tend to be a lot more homemade and fresh. They couldn’t deal with making fresh pasta because they have to serve it so quickly. We make some stuff that they don’t make there, like stuffed peppers. If you like the salmon there, you can get the same salmon here. 21400 East Cliff Drive, Santa Cruz, 621-2063.

A Sauvignon Blanc to pair with exotic Mediterranean fare BY JOSIE COWDEN
G
athering with friends for lunch or dinner at Zameen Mediterranean Cuisine in Aptos is always a delicious treat. It’s casual dining at its best—with unique Persian/Levant-style food, not to mention the restaurant’s fabulous sauces. With all of Zameen’s offerings of exotic Mediterranean food, four of us shared a bottle of Morgan Winery’s Sauvignon Blanc 2015 ($25)—a perfect accompaniment for dishes like dolma, tzatziki, hummus, falafel, and the saffron chicken platter with yogurt, lime, and pomegranate walnut sauce. The 2015 Sauvignon Blanc features aromas of lemon balm, guava and citrus blossom, and flavors of key lime and grapefruit with a hint of grass. It’s an incredibly versatile wine, and although it pairs well with lighter summer fare, it’s also a good match for richer food, as its “small touch” of oak adds a bright acidity. It even goes well with baklava—take my word for it. Morgan wines can be found all over, and this one comes with a screw cap. What could be easier with your Zameen take-away? Note: Zameen also operates a food truck, which you’ll see zooming around all over the county, and look
out for another Zameen opening soon. Morgan Winery’s tasting room is open from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. daily at 204 Crossroads Blvd., Carmel. 831626-3700. morganwinery.com. Zameen Mediterranean Cuisine, 7528 Soquel Drive, Aptos, 688-4465. zameencuisine.com.
CHAMINADE FARM-TOTABLE DINNER The last of the summer series of farm-to-table wine dinners begins at 6 p.m. Friday, Oct. 7. This one features produce from Route 1 Farms, beef from LeftCoast GrassFed in Pescadero, and the wonderful wines of Alfaro Family Vineyards. Winemaker Richard Alfaro will be pouring his first-ever sparkling wine. Visit chaminade.com for info.
MALABAR TRADING COMPANY Malabar is where I stop at the Aptos farmers market for my hot chai. My favorite is the Kashmiri Chai, but try the traditional Malabar Chai—a spicy blend of ginger and cardamom. Their new one is Spicy Chocolate Chai, a blend of cacao nibs, spices and rooibos—ideal for a foggy Aptos morning. And check out the company’s impressive assortment of teas.

H RISA’S STARS BY RISA D’ANGELES INSCRIBED IN THE BOOK OF LIFE Mercury enters Libra this week. Mercury signifies our thoughts, communications and ideas. Libra is the sign of Right Relations. Mercury in Libra calls us to have Goodwill, Right Relations and Right Speech, recognizing that everyone is on different developmental levels. Then we can come from the heart, which is all that matters. Monday is Columbus Day, which has become a “politically correct issue.” What does Columbus Day celebrate? Expansion of Europe’s knowledge of the world, discovery of a new world across the ocean. A brave young man with three ships “discovers” the world is larger than Europe. In some esoteric texts, Master Saint Germaine is considered an incarnation of Christopher Columbus, born in Genoa, Italy, 1451–1506 A.D., later settling in Portugal, and landing in America in 1492 during the first of four voyages to the New World sponsored by King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella of Spain. Wednesday, Oct. 12, is Yom Kippur (Day of
Atonement, most solemn festival in the Jewish year), festival of Judgment and Remembrance. Yom Kippur ends 10 days of repentance begun at Rosh Hashanah when God “opened” the Books of Judgment and Creation, observing humanity for acts of goodness, kindness, forgiveness and service. Judgment has been “pending” these 10 days when prayers, forgiveness and service were required. Then on Yom Kippur (Saturday), our fate is decided, the judgment “sealed” (by G-d and the Heavenly Court). However, the verdict is not finalized. We are given another chance. G-d offers us Divine Mercy through the Festival of Sukkot (explained next week). May everyone be inscribed by G-d in the Creation Book of Life. Let us prepare plates of apples and honey, pomegranates and wine, sharing with family and friends, wishing everyone an upcoming “sweet year”.
ARIES Mar21–Apr20
LIBRA Sep23–Oct22
A sort of Libra tension seems to descend upon you. Maintain awareness and do not ignore this pressure or become impatient. Tension is to be used for creative purposes. Should conflicts arise with close relationships, be more cooperative, use intentional Goodwill, choose to love more. Love is a choice. The unusual may appear. You will be tested in maintaining balance.
Be aware that your energy is very expanded, bright, impressive and active. Lack of sensitivity to this can create relationship difficulties. Not inclined at this time to bend to others’ needs, it’s best to work alone, allowing for freedom and independence. Be extra careful with health. You could overwork and be unaware of your body’s requirements. A new more loving self-identity is forming. Pay attention to the signs.
Esoteric Astrology as news for week of Oct. 5, 2016
TAURUS Apr21–May21 Each day you tell us you’re working on the mountain of tasks set before you. You suspend all pleasure and focus on each day’s labor, some of which is surprising, for each day contains unexpected and unforeseen challenges. Tend to your health carefully, resisting any foods, drinks, people and/or events that lower or imbalance your immune system (like sugar). Rest in the afternoons.
GEMINI May 22–June 20 Your behavior tells us that you’ve become a Leo, expressing yourself with an “I am” focus, wanting to make self-proclamations and needing recognition. Self-denial, discipline, and setting aside gratifications are not strengths at this time. Invite others to enter your state of new selfawareness. You need lots of amusement, enjoyment, games and fun. Some Geminis will marry. Some won’t.
Are there many thoughts about or activities with family? Are you considering relocation? Or redoing your home? Are you accomplishing great tasks around the house? Something about home and family is developing and expanding. To neutralize any possible conflicts, begin to agree with everyone. Or just listen. If living with parents, you’ll need freedom soon. Redirect any irritability toward being thankful. It works.
LE0 Jul21–Aug22 Many new and expansive thoughts and ideas are appearing. Share all ideas with those who listen well. Don’t keep them to yourself. Observe how others respond. Do they listen and ask questions or refer your ideas to themselves? Many are learning how to listen. The ability to listen only occurs when we are aware, awake and observant. Each day’s pulsating beat and rhythm will be felt. You work to nurture everything.
Allow all difficult experiences to simply pass you by. Often others act with unconscious patterning, undermining your intentions. You could feel frustration and irritation. To ease this situation, work a bit in solitude and consider everything you do as service to the world. Then all experiences benefit your well-being. Have intentions for Goodwill, even in times of difficulty. Go to church (or synagogue).
SAGITTARIUS Nov22–Dec20 Your thoughts are toward the future, a focus on hopes, wishes and dreams, and your next level of work in the world. You want to do what summons your potential. Don’t be too solitary. Although you’re quite independent, there’s a need for balance by interacting with those you trust and have fun with. Coordinate your needs with the needs of others. Saturn’s in your first house. You may need more rest.
CAPRICORN Dec21–Jan20 Mars has entered Capricorn. This gives you muchneeded energy, more each day. However, you could burn out easily, too. Careful of hurting yourself. Careful not to bump your head. You may be Identifying goals and ambitions, trying to work hard and independently, with initiative and great effort. Carefully and subtly, with your Soul star, align your interests with everyone around you and help will appear. And rest more.

Tend carefully to money. You may not know where it is or be afraid of losing it. Know that you need not hope others agree with your thinking. They already do. Unusual events and people come into your life, creating within you freer points of view. Assess them. What you believe in now frames your future. You find your energies turning inward. Life changes us from within.

Money is a neutral energy. It helps us have what we need and want. It allows us to choose, to have possessions, make purchases, have beauty, and nurture body and spirit. When used wisely, money helps us to share, helps others in need and accomplishes goals. Money is made out of the mineral and plant kingdoms. We thank them. And we thank you, too, for all that you share and give now and in the future.
You can barely maintain the shadows of the old ways of living. You want new values, a revolution, to occur in your life and a new path taken in relationships. Assess your use of personal resources. Perhaps you need to untangle yourself from something or someone. Faraway places are on your mind. You’re doing a good job, Pisces. You pray each day for miracles and a new home to appear. You’re doing your work.

MARY CHAPMAN, 23-Year-Customer, Santa Cruz Occupation: Mom Hobbies: Cooking, baking and baking with kids SCOTT GRIFFIN, 23-Year-Customer, Santa Cruz Occupation: Nickelodeon & Del Mar Theaters general manager
Astrological Sign: Scorpio
Hobbies: Paying with kids, photography, movies, barbecuing Astrological Sign: Capricorn
What you folks like to cook? MARY: “Everything, including a lot of Italian food. I grew up on it. I do a lot of baking with the kids such as chocolate chip cookies, cakes, and more. We pretty much get all our ingredients from Shopper’s.” SCOTT: “I love barbecuing steaks, chicken, corn on the cob, and a variety of vegetables.” MARY: “We know all the butchers by name. Alex gave us a terrific recipe for roast chicken which we make all the time.” SCOTT: “The guys are great with meat recommendations and recipes, and they’ll special-cut what you need.” MARY: “The butchers and the checkers are great. Employees tend to stay here longer so you get to know them. Shopper’s is quite different...”
How so? SCOTT: “Shopper’s has a family-friendly atmosphere; our daughters, Bailey and Zoe, have always felt comfortable at here.” MARY: “It’s important to us that this is an independent market. It’s also the right size and has everything we need.” SCOTT: “It’s easy to do your shopping in a reasonable amount of time. Shopper’s isn’t distracting with too much stuff and giant lines like the bigger stores. I think it’s important to support our community. Here you know where your money is going” MARY: “It has a lot of diversity — from organic foods to your everyday basics.” SCOTT: “Plus many local products, like beer, wines, and coffees.” MARY: “I fully support the local handmade artisan goods they carry.”
You delve much into the specialty products? MARY: “Oh yes. Shopper’s has a great spice section, including many different types of salts — smoked, pepper and more. They carry the best cinnamon, Saigon cinnamon. Then there are the many olive oils, mustards, jams, kimchee, pickles, cheeses, and the Farmhouse Culture sauerkraut.” SCOTT: “I like that they have a variety of kales — we eat a lot. It seems that in general, Shopper’s produce is in better shape than other stores’ produce. This is a very comfortable market to shop in, and it feels like a second home.” MARY: “Shopper’s offers quality products and their service is great! I feel it’s important to have both. It’s where we do all our Shopping.”
