You asked me for a jump, so I obliged. You said you were worried about not getting your client to where he needed to be and how your boss wouldn’t be so understanding. My car was now eye to eye with yours, like a pre-fight faceoff. Engines off. Red to positive. Black to negative. I turn on my engine to let your battery charge, but tell you to give it a few minutes before turning yours on, too. But nope, you turn it on right away. Unsurprisingly, it doesn’t work. I remind you a few more times to just wait long enough to let your comatose car juice up, but your state of distress seems to have made you deaf. “Lady, you have to wait a little bit to let your battery charge before turning it on!” I shout over the din. But it’s pointless. You keep impatiently turning your key anyway. Then, you bring out a Wienerschnitzel cup of Coke and pour it on your battery. “What are you doing?!” I ask. “That’s dangerous!” But you have no regard for safety, only for your anxious client and the tyrants who apparently run the driving company. After several texts, your manager finally calls. Even more panicked, you turn to me with your boss on hold. “Can you drop off my client at his destination since my car won’t start? I can't afford another screw-up!” “Sorry, lady. But I’ve tried starting your car for 15 minutes now, and this is where my services end. I can’t do that.” You frown disapprovingly before turning back to your phone to diss me. “Boss, I’m trying, but this guy doesn’t want to help.”

Santa Clara Unified took nearly two months to respond to Fly’s request for sexual harassment complaints by informing us that no such records exist. At least not since 2000 to May 3 of this year, according to Assistant Superintendent of School Support and District Development ANDREW LUCIA. No claims, Lucia says, not even in response to Santa Clara High teacher DOMINIC CASERTA’s alleged harassment of a few girls in spring of 2002, or seven years later when records indicate that he behaved inappropriately with yet another female student. Even Santa Clara police— who failed to locate documentation of a 2002 incident memorialized in Caserta’s school personnel file—have a better handle on record-keeping than Lucia, who’s in charge of monitoring such things for the U.S. Department of Education. A search for police reports involving sex crimes at Santa Clara High alone turned up 45 incidents in the past decade, including four involving district employees. On May 2, 2013, a former student reported having a sexual relationship with a teacher when she was 16 years old. On Sept. 23 that same year, a janitor reportedly found a teacher and a high school girl alone late at night in the teacher’s car and later found a mattress under the teacher’s desk, along with bras, panties and condoms.
GONE TO POT Family of 16-year-old Isabelle Gonzalez, who died in a marijuana- and alcohol-related car crash, worry that the state’s inability to consistently enforce drugged-driving laws will put other lives at risk.
On Jan. 8, 2016, a 16-year-old girl told cops she was “inappropriately touched” by a 46-year-old school employee. And on April 27, 2017, a 62-year-old male coach walked into the girl’s locker room while students were changing.

Crash Course In the wake of pot legalization, policing stoned drivers hasn’t been easy BY GRACE HASE HEN JUANITA Sorrentino hung up the phone with her eldest granddaughter, she never imagined that the quick, casual goodbye would be their last. Isabelle Gonzalez, a 16-year-old San Jose High School student, told her grandma she planned to hang out with best friend for a few hours but would come home in time to rest up for her cheerleading rally the next morning.
tree and careening over a nearby hill. Paramedics pronounced her and Hunsperger dead on the scene. Her best friend and another man in the car survived with treatable injuries. Though the crash remains under investigation, the Santa Clara County Medical Examiner-Coroner’s toxicology report showed that Hunsperger died with a blood alcohol concentration of 0.187—over twice the legal limit. Lab results also showed traces of delta-9 THC, the active ingredient of marijuana. When California legalized recreational pot this year, law firms and law enforcement stepped up warnings about stoned driving. Signs along freeways warned about the consequences of getting busted behind the wheel while under the influence. But policing marijuana-induced DUIs has proved a challenge. Meanwhile,
the push to expunge cannabis-related criminal records has Sorrentino and others who lost loved ones in druggeddriving fatalities worried that the state’s inability to consistently police stoned motorists will increase the risk of similar tragedies. “We want justice served,” Sorrentino says. “We want justice for Isabelle.” Unlike other states that sanction marijuana, California has yet to establish an intoxication level analogous to bloodalcohol limits that would legally make a person too high to drive. And with the lack of such a standard comes a dearth of information about whether legalization has indeed made the roads more dangerous. There’s also the possibility that the legal and cultural acceptance of marijuana has prompted more people to let their guard down about driving under its influence. The San Jose branch of the California Highway Patrol has been tracking the number of marijuana-related DUIs since the drug’s legalization for anyone over the age of 21. But barely six months have passed since the law took effect, so the office has yet to draw any conclusions about whether stoned driving has been on the rise. Santa Clara County District Attorney’s Office spokesman Sean Webby says his agency is in a similar holding pattern, unable to say one way
that, absent a legal standard for weed intoxication, the legal penalties for driving while stoned will fail to reflect the seriousness of the crime. On May 15, Fremont police arrested 21-year-old Dang Nguyen Hai Tran for allegedly causing a a five-car pile-up that killed three people. Police suspected Tran was under the influence of marijuana during the wreck, but released him from jail just three days later. “The justice system is that easy to let these guys go,” Sorrentino laments. “If they were walking the street and shot somebody, they’d get life. They don’t (come out of jail) three days later. They stay in good for murder.” After decades of heavy-handed enforcement that disproportionately impacted people of color and fueled the crisis of mass incarceration, however, the powers that be have been trying to strike the right balance. Chris Johnson, a program manager for the pedestrian safety advocacy group Walk San Jose, says he isn’t entirely convinced that more severe punishment is the best way to prevent drug-related DUIs. Instead, he advocates for expanding public transportation options. “You make the choice to get behind the wheel of a car,” he says. “Yes, there should be very serious consequences for that, but I’m skeptical of the harshness of that sentence as a deterrent. It’s not premeditated.” Johnson explained that his hesitancy toward stricter enforcement has to do with the nation’s well-documented history of systemic bias. “Depending on where you live, you’re more likely to be pulled over for driving while black or driving while Latino,” he says. That’s certainly been true in San Jose and the county as a whole, according to statistics tracked by police and the DA. In the months since Isabelle’s death, her family has been trying to find some measure of closure, in part by connecting with her friends and others families that lost loved ones to drunk or drugged driving. While Isabelle’s life ended abruptly, her family doesn’t want that to be her defining moment. Instead, they remember her as an aspiring social worker and caring young woman. “I miss her so much because I can’t talk to her,” Sorrentino says. “It hurts because she would never let anything bad happen to us. She would never want us to hurt.”

or another whether the data affirms or refutes Sorrentino’s fears. While California Vehicle Code 23512 addresses driving offenses related to alcohol and drugs, it has no marijuana-specific law. That leaves the Santa Clara County District Attorney’s Office unable to track whether the person charged drove under the influence of marijuana or another drug—unless an attorney enters a note in the docket to specify whether a certain drug was involved. Webby says their numbers are imperfect at best. The San Jose Police Department also couldn’t immediately provide information about weed-related traffic enforcement. Like the DA, the department says it would need more time to conduct any authoritative analysis about the effect of legalization on road safety. Enough data exists, however, to confirm an uptick in drugged driving on and around holidays, including the stoner holiday, 4/20, and the Fourth of July, which falls within what the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety calls the “100 deadliest days of summer” between Memorial Day and Labor Day. The California Department of Insurance and CHP on Monday issued a press release noting that 44 percent of fatally wounded drivers tested positive for multiple substances, mainly alcohol, marijuana and opioids. The crash that killed Isabelle wasn’t Hunsperger’s first drug offense. Court records show he had both drug- and driving-related infractions to his name. In April 2016, police pulled him over for participating in a speed contest. An officer found cocaine, pot and drug paraphernalia in his car. A judge gave him two years’ probation and suspended his license for one year—but he violated the terms of his sentence by getting behind the wheel again in 2017. Hunsperger also entered a Deferred Entry Judgement, a program for drug offenders that offers counseling or substance-use education in exchange for the chance to expunge their record. For Isabelle’s loved ones, however, the system that tried to save Hunsperger, failed their family. “I believe my niece was murdered,” Isabelle’s aunt, Vivian Chavez, says. “She was underage, she was a little girl. That guy had no business drinking.” Or smoking. Sorrentino says she’s concerned

SKIN DEEP To some, Harlan Ellison was a combative monster, but to others he was a generous soul.
The Mouth For Harlan Ellison, writing was ‘an act of revolutionary guerrilla warfare’ BY GARY SINGH
T
HE PROVOCATIVE master of speculative fiction Harlan Ellison died in his sleep last week at the age of 84. In addition to numerous episodes of The Outer Limits, The Twilight Zone and The Alfred Hitchcock Hour way back in the ’60s, Ellison penned more than 1,800 short stories while accepting numerous awards for over 50 years. To some, he was a combative monster, but to others he was a generous soul.
For me, The Glass Teat, a compilation of Ellison’s caustic, scathing columns about television in the late ’60s—better than any TV criticism before or since—was a huge influence when Metro first gave me this column. Never one to mince words, Harlan’s vocabulary and turns of phrase in that masterpiece continue to blow me away. It brings to mind Guy Debord of the Situationists, who created a book with a sandpaper cover so it would scratch any books placed next to it. I don’t recall where I found my tattered paperback copy,
but it still occupies a holy space on my shelf, and I laugh out loud every time I flip it open. In one column Ellison described himself as an “anthracite-hearted, asp-tongued guttersnipe.” Those words would make a great epitaph. In that book, at the height of the Vietnam era, when racist slobs supporting George Wallace predated the racist slobs in the Cult of Trump, Ellison never hesitated to thrash the bejeezus out of any xenophobic rube, anywhere. The same hollow-headed conspiracy trash about blacks, Mexicans, liberals, atheists, commies or hippies “taking over the country” existed then as it does now. The same deranged right wing ammosexuals and their medieval fears poisoned all rational conversation then as they do now. Nothing has changed. What’s more, Ellison never sunk to giving ersatz accolades in The Glass Teat. It wasn’t his job to be a PR person or a “community builder” for every giddy feel-good show on
TV. In one passage he referred to Johnny Carson as “the world’s oldest Huckleberry Finn.” But if he liked a show, he bent over backward to shout its praises. In more than one column, he applauded the Smothers Brothers and how they ridiculed old spinster schoolmarms and “the crewcut set,” thus receiving “raw-throated outrage from the neatsy-clean tickytacky types out there in the Great American Heartland.” All in all, I’ve stolen several lines from that book. But Ellison’s lasting impression was his voluminous output of short stories, most of which navigated our darkest psychological corners to demonstrate that we all share similar thoughts and feelings. In the introduction to his collection, Shatterday, Ellison exploded for a few thousand words in response to some feep who accused him of writing gruesome stuff just for shock value. “This wonderful and terrible occupation of re-creating the world in a different way, each time fresh and strange, is an act of revolutionary guerrilla warfare,” Ellison wrote. “I stir up the soup. I inconvenience you. I make your nose run and your eyes water. I spend my life and miles of visceral material in a glorious and painful series of midnight raids against complacency. ... All in pursuit of one truth that lies at the core of every jot of fiction ever written: we are all in the same skin...but for the time it takes to read these stories I merely have the mouth. You see before you a child who never grew up, who does not know it’s socially unacceptable to ask, ‘Who farted?’” When I started grasping for my own voice somewhere in the vicinity of 20 years ago, long before any newspaper, magazine, or website agreed to print my words, the introduction to Shatterday impacted me so much that I typed out every single word. And I still have the original file. A few years ago, the author Neil Gaiman appeared at Cinequest and cited Shatterday as one of the books that inspired him to start writing. So I cornered Gaiman at the afterparty and thanked him for mentioning that book. I will never be in the same league as Harlan Ellison. Nobody was. But like him, as you read this, I merely have a mouth. And we are all in the same skin.

The summer is an awesome time for BBQ, but you don’t have to do it yourself
S
UMMERTIME CONJURES romantic images of backyard cookouts—of grillin’, chillin’ and hanging out with friends and family. Then again, there's the flies, the scorching heat and slaving away for hours trying to get them ribs right. Ain’t nobody got time for that!
Here are a few of our favorite places in the South Bay to get that giant hot dog with perfectly “snappy” skin, juicy charbroiled burgers and fall-off-the-bone, mouthwatering ribs with minimal effort. Just insert credit card. ( JD)
Hot Dogs Billy’s Hot Dogs E Brokaw & Junction Aves, San Jose The South Bay is full of hot dog street vendors, but most are hard to pinpoint as their locations change daily. However, one man, Billy Holguin, has been posted up in the same spot for more than 25 years—on Brokaw Avenue (by Fry’s Electronics). Billy’s dogs aren’t fancy or pretentious. He simply offers a good old-fashioned hot dog, chips and soda for around seven
clams. Billy also has Polish dogs, hot links and perhaps one of the most amazing condiment bars I’ve ever seen on a hot dog cart; it’s got the standard sauerkraut and onions along with just about any sauce one could dream up—including a very impressive hot sauce collection. (JD)
Chiaramonte’s Sausage & Deli 609 N 13th St, San Jose Though it’s not a traditional hot dog joint, it’s important to give props to a place that’s been making its own

SNAPPY The Happy Hound has been cooking up some of the best weiners in town since 1971. Italian sausage for a century—since 1908! They sell the product of their delicious family recipe by the pound, or you can simply walk in and get an amazing sausage sandwich topped with housemade marinara any time. The sausage comes in four flavors: garlic, mild, hot and “quick pass the milk!” (JD)
Happy Hound 15899 Los Gatos Blvd, Los Gatos Serving up some of the best dogs in town, this family-friendly spot has created cherished childhood memories since 1971. Their links have some of the best snap around, and their handspun real ice cream shakes are a terrific accompaniment. The eponymous Happy Hound is
served Chicago-style with red onions, tomatoes and relish on a pillow-soft bun. (JD)
Logan’s Big Dawgs 2036 Agnew Rd, Santa Clara Another hot dog cart that’s been in the same location for many years and comes with the added bonus of umbrella-covered outdoor seating, Logan’s has all the usual cast of characters (i.e., hot dogs, Polish and hot links) but they’re really known for their exotic array of hot dogs— such as the extra-spicy habanero link, sweet and spicy Cajun-pineapple link and a chicken andouille sausage. Not feeling like a dog? Logan’s also has grilled chicken and tri-tip sammys to round-out the menu. (JD)

Mark’s Hot Dogs 48 S Capitol Ave, San Jose Mark’s has kept the same iconic signage, building (aptly nicknamed “The Orange”) and delicious, snappy links since 1936—even after it moved from its original location in 2000. The chili dogs are the thing to get here, and the best part is you don’t have to leave your car to eat one. Yes, Mark’s still provides nostalgic carhop service of yesteryear, but with only eight parking spots it’s best to get there early. (JD)

17 856 N 13th St, San Jose This relative newcomer is making big waves on the South Bay BBQ scene, serving up what may be the best Texas-style beef brisket around. Their juicy, thick-cuts of smoky brisket go perfectly with a side of beefy chili. They are also turning heads with their inspired BBQ brunch. The weekends menu features smoked brisket hash and their own take on chilaquiles—pulled pork piled high atop Fritos. ( JD)

oriented shows, including The Travel Channel’s Man v. Food. Henry’s continues to be a destination for steaks, ribs and brisket—but they also seek to innovate. They recently introduced a burger made with a menagerie of meat, including ground beef, NY steak, top sirloin, filet mignon, rib eye steak and a pork belly blend. (WR)
Jon Jon’s 13005 Oakland Rd, San Jose Though it may be the least visually appealing location on this list, it is arguably one of the tastiest. This Q joint was originally started by the Rev. John Erwin, Jr. who brought his Georgia BBQ stylings to the South Bay in 1995. Their ribs are off-thehook good, with a strong smoky flavor, good bark and fall-off-thebone texture. They might be the best ribs in the South Bay. If one craves the heat, their hot links range from spicy to “Dear God, what have I done to deserve this?!” ( JD)
Quality Bourbons and Barbecue— you had us at hello. This Mountain View establishment hasn’t even been open a year, but they already have secured a place in the hearts of plenty of locals. Featuring a straightforward meat menu and a serious assortment of craft bourbons, whiskies and ryes, this is the place to go for smoky meats and smokier tumblers. (KL)
Sam’s Bar-B-Que 1110 S Bascom Ave, San Jose Run by one of the South Bay’s original restaurateur families—the Carlinos—Sam’s has roots that trace back to the late 1930s. They handcut all their meats, make their own sausage and grind their burgers fresh every day. All their Q is smoked inhouse in their custom-made smoker and served up with their terrific house BBQ sauce. Their slow-smoked prime rib (Fri & Sat only, after 5pm) is limited in time and quantities— but worth seeking out. (JD)

South Winchester BBQ 1362 S Winchester Blvd, San Jose Inspired by California-style BBQ as well as the grilling traditions of the Carolinas, South Winchester BBQ’s outdoor patio setup gives off an ambience reminiscent of a fresh country-style diner. This spot takes pride in their smoked BBQ and specialty craft beers. Enjoy a cold one while awaiting your food and take in the aroma of the smoky, oak wood fire at the back in the restaurant. Their BBQ tri-tip and tender pulled pork are delicious; so are their sides of garlic bread and potato salad. (WR)
TAOB Pit Stop 484 Blossom Hill Rd, San Jose The Art of BBQ—a.k.a. TAOB— approaches the grill with the same intention as a painter approaching the canvas. Their special rub and secret sauce help coax out the awardwinning flavor of their tender ribs and finger-lickin’ chicken. TAOB isn’t just about the meats, though. They also have fantastic sides. Try their mac and cheese and corn nibs. (WR)
Trail Dust 17240 Monterey Rd, Morgan Hill This downtown Morgan Hill favorite has been serving up oak-smoked Q done the right way for almost 30 years. The smoky, lightly glazed ribs are the thing to get here, as well as any of their USDA prime steaks. Patrons will definitely not die of thirst while visiting, as Trail Dust boasts an impressive array of more than 20 craft beers on tap. (JD)

The Burger Pit 1349 Blossom Hill Rd, San Jose This South Bay burger institution was founded in 1956 by a man named Al Berger (really!), who built the Burger Pit into a large regional chain before things fell apart in the ’80s. This is the last remaining Burger Pit, and therefore it’s the best. You really can’t go wrong ordering any of their fresh-ground burgers, but the classic bacon and cheese steerburger is always a good call. ( JD) John Dyke

You can even create your own original by selecting from their assortment of proteins, cheese, special sauces and other toppings. (KL)

Enjoy your meal on inside or on the patio.
Juicy Burger 630 Blossom Hill Rd, San Jose This San Jose original has been flipping flame-grilled patties since the early ’90s, when they had three locations. Their recent switch to humanely raised, antibiotic- and hormone-free Meyer Angus beef has really made a huge difference in the quality of their meat. The real standout here at Juicy Burger is their gigantic condiment bar that has just about every veggie and sauce one could think of—and some I’d never expect—to help diners make the burger of their dreams.

Original Joe’s 301 S 1st St, San Jose OJ’s is known for a number of things—like the charmingly gruff waitstaff and heaping portions of Italian-American fare. But the best item on the menu is arguably the burger. They’ve been doing it the same way since 1937—rolling the ground beef with finely chopped onions and serving it on a tangy french roll. Dress it up however you like and be sure you have a napkin nearby. It’s fun getting a bit messy in such a classy joint. (NV)

Kirks Steakburgers Multiple Locations This no-frills burger joint has been serving up charcoal-grilled steakburgers since 1948. Each patty is hand-mixed using Kirk’s own special blend of beef to make for one incredibly tasty treat.

Main Street Burgers Multiple locations Dubbed the “Burger and Shake Nirvana,” Main Street Burger lives up to its honorary title. The Nirvana Burger features double patties, melted gouda and housemade spicy mayo, all held together with soft ciabatta bread. If you can’t decide between a burger and ribs, try their BBQ Bliss Burger with bacon, onion rings and barbecue sauce. I’ll take two of each, please. (KL)
Mo’s the Breakfast + Burger Joint
Despite its name, Sliders Burgers does not actually serve any bite-size burgers. What they do serve is an exotic array of hamberduccis made from just about anything you would want to eat but were afraid to try. Elk? Yep. Bison? Check. Ostrich? Sure. Wild Boar? Affirmative. They also have boring ol’ beef, turkey and veggie burgers, as well—but why bother? (JD)
Multiple locations While many diners know Mo’s as a great place to grab breakfast, it’s their burgers that are the real stars of the show. Their Bacon, Bacon, Bacon Burger is topped with slices of bacon and a savory bacon relish—and has bacon mixed into the patty itself. But the grandpappy of them all is their ginormous Hangover Burger, which comes with cheddar cheese, bacon, chorizo and a sunny-side up egg that will help one forget that extra shot, or three, from the night before.

Raised in Louisiana, Josh Johnson honed his standup in Chicago and now lives in New York, where he works as a writer on The Daily Show. Dude’s not even 30. Still, he tries to remain humble. Check out his set on The Tonight Show, where he laments his diminutive stature by speculating that if he were to get in an loud argument with his girlfriend on the street, passersby would be less concerned with the prospect of violence and more concerned with putting Johnson to bed: “Oh… He needs a nap. That’s all that is.” He’s at Rooster’s through Sunday. (DI)
Engage in some seriously meta nostalgia with The Sandlot—a coming of age tale, set in small town America in 1962, about a bunch of kids playing baseball on a weed-choked neighborhood sandlot. Thirty-somethings may wince when they realize that this film was first released 25 years ago. Then again, many at the upper end of the millennial curve have little ones of their own.

Collage has the potential to be so much more than a junior year vision board. In the hands of Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque— the cubist masters who helped popularize collage—it is high art. From these earliest cuttings and pastings, entire movements were birthed. Dadaism and Surrealism owe a great deal to the concept of collage, as well as the practice itself; the same goes for modern graphic design. “Paper Cuts: Large-Scale Collage” is open now.

BULLSEYE ‘Beauty Hath Deceived Thee and Lust Hath Perverted Thy Heart (2013)’ by Anthony Riggs.
Surreal History Anthony Riggs combines elements of Western and Eastern art BY JEFFREY EDALATPOUR
A
MUD-COLORED python wraps its body around a resting angel with magenta hair. She is unconcerned by its proximity and rests both of her hands against its curving belly. At the center of a target, a 1940s pin-up model holds the head of a gray garden snake between her thumb and index finger, its silvery length coils around her right forearm. Faded pink cherry blossoms surround them both as satellites race across the sky. In two separate poses, the right arm
of a naked saint is held aloft by the tail end of a black and white snake. Even chubby putti ride, cavort and wrestle with snakes in the paintings made by Anthony Riggs in his new exhibit at the Triton Museum of Art. Walking around the gallery, Riggs explained his fascination with ophidian imagery: “A snake is a symbol of renewal and fertility. It sheds its skin.” He doesn’t paint them openmouthed, baring fangs, poised to strike at prey. They’re just “hanging out”— but as recurring characters in the dramatic narratives that his paintings depict. Every Act of Creation is an Act of Destruction (2014) features that magenta-haired angel and a second one with bright pink locks. The lower
half of the painting gathers together an orchid, a cactus, a rhinoceros beetle and the aforementioned python. Centered at the top of this oil on canvas, a purple lotus in full bloom sends out dark pink stripes like the rays fanning out of a cartoon sun. At ground level, a Hokusai-like wave washes away the landscape behind two oil derricks and a shadowy outline of Monument Valley. Leonardo da Vinci’s Virgin of the Rocks is not the first painting that comes to mind when you look at this collage and collision of color, form and meaning. Riggs’ work is both hyperreal—the beetle is nearly the size of an actual rhinoceros—and surreal, because of all the illogical juxtapositions. But his approach to this collection of paintings is part of his ongoing investigation into a history of art that can also speak to the present. In this case, he looked for inspiration in Renaissance paintings and asked himself, “What could I paint today that could respond to da Vinci’s idea?” Virgin of the Rocks includes Jesus as an object of adoration, but he and his mother are fleeing the wrath of King Herod. As Riggs observed, “It has a sense of doom or deliverance.”
He also says that his work deals with “not actual science, but the way that popular culture perceives it. If we do good works, our science and technology can save the planet. We can save ourselves from the problems that we created.” If we don’t, the painting suggests that we might just as easily expect an environmental apocalypse. Riggs may have started with da Vinci and the Renaissance, but his work is a synthesis of different mythologies and belief systems. That’s how a lotus from the East communes with angels from the West. Before setting paint to canvas, he makes a collage. “Collage is a fast way of getting me to the space where I want to paint.” It’s an organizing principle that gives him a sense of what should go where and when to edit a congested idea. Riggs is by no means a minimalist, but he didn’t start out painting animated mashups of pop culture, science, religion and nature. At the beginning of his career, when he was figuring out who he was as a young man and an artist, Riggs painted abstract work in black and white. When you come across a painting like The Decolonization of Reason (2015), based on the legend of Saint George and the Dragon, it’s hard to imagine him ever forsaking color again. In his version, Riggs has so skillfully incorporated a French floral wallpaper pattern from the 1800s that it looks like decoupage. He notes that the French borrowed the pattern, like his peacockblue dragon, from the Chinese. The winged Saint George figure is suspended mid-air against the flowers and patches of rose paint that simulate torn scraps of some luxurious fabric. This marriage of patterns and cultures shouldn’t work, but it does, especially in paintings like this one where the artist’s conscious efforts at storytelling are absorbed by the shapes and colors. When Riggs abandons the intellectual ideas that jump-start his narratives, the work balances out riotous moments of chaos with the harmony of his saturated palette. The paintings then are liberated from having to mean anything, and are simply beautiful.

FLIPPING THE SCRIPT Lakeith Stanfield stars as Cassius Green in Boots Riley’s ‘Sorry to Bother You.’
Oh, Bother New film ‘Sorry to Bother You’ examines destructive, surreal force of privilege BY JEFFREY EDALATPOUR
C
ASSIUS GREEN (Lakeith Stanfield) can’t get a break. He lives in Sergio’s (Terry Crews) downstairs garage but hasn’t paid the rent in months because he can’t find a job. When Cassius and his girlfriend Detroit (Tessa Thompson) start making out in the morning, the garage door accidentally opens. The Oakland neighborhood they live in is suddenly visible and alive with street traffic and passersby. Someone says to the couple, “Get a room!” Cassius replies, mumbling under
his breath, “I’ve already got one,” before shutting the door. In his debut feature film Sorry to Bother You, writer and director Boots Riley builds the story inside the everyday reality of Cassius’s money problems. Stanfield, who plays Darius on the FX show Atlanta, persuades the audience that those problems are real with a mix of humor and melancholy. His director backs him up with jokes, or sight gags, that play out on camera. They reinforce the idea that Cassius doesn’t have a room of his own and is sadly resigned to the fact that the society he lives in has disempowered him from getting one. Everything in his life is broken or about to fall apart. His car is a smokespewing relic with mismatched metal panels and windshield wipers that have
to be cranked by hand. When he pulls the vehicle up to a gas station, he tells the cashier to put 40 in his tank before dropping a quarter, a nickel and a dime in front of her. Once this sense of financial insecurity that Cassius suffers from is established, Riley then decides to depart from the realistic portrayal of an actual Oakland neighborhood and the residents who live there. He tries a variety of genres on for size to see which one will get his message across best. Comedy gives way to satire, which gets replaced by a thriller that ultimately evolves into a sci-fi horror film. Each shift in tone is Riley’s way of both heightening reality—the sets are saturated with neo-psychedelic blues, oranges and maroons—and commenting on an economic hierarchy that disadvantages people of color. Along the way, the director provides Stanfield with as much justifiable paranoia as Roman Polanski did for Mia Farrow in Rosemary’s Baby (1968). That dormant paranoia wakes up inside of Cassius when his friend Salvador (Jermaine Fowler) sets up a job interview for him at the telemarketing company he works for. The downtown office is located in the basement. It’s the
second underground location in the movie that positions people with more privilege physically above Cassius. After he’s hired, the floor manager Johnny (Michael X. Sommers) teaches him the company mantra, “Stick to the Script.” But after several failed phone calls, he finds that the script isn’t working for him. In the cubicle next to him, a co-worker named Langston (Danny Glover, in a wry cameo) suggests that Cassius would make more progress if he adopted a “white” voice. Reluctantly at first, Cassius gives it a try. When he opens his mouth to imitate a white man’s, Riley surprises us by dubbing Stanfield’s voice with a white actor’s—David Cross (who in turn summons Tobias Fünke, the TV character he plays on Arrested Development). Passing as white, Cassius becomes the most successful telemarketer in the room and is subsequently promoted to work upstairs. To gain entry into that world, you take a gilded elevator ride that glides up to the top floor. He arrives in this penthouse office space, sans narrow cubicles or fluorescent overhead lights, and steps into a scene straight out of Dwell magazine. This is what gentrification is starting to look like in Oakland. The natives are losing access to work and housing as the largely white culture of tech moves in and displaces them. Riley also displaces Cassius by granting him access to the company upstairs. Once he sees how things work up there, his political consciousness is also raised, and compromised. He finds out that his employer is the lifestyle guru Steve Lift (Armie Hammer), the CEO of a suspicious, New Age conglomerate ironically named WorryFree. Their advertising campaign—which has been lingering in the movie’s background on billboards and TV commercials— promises a rent-free, communal way of living. There is a cost, of course, and one that’s similar to the dictatorial state Margaret Atwood imagined in The Handmaid’s Tale. One in which a few white men own our thoughts and labor, our souls and bodies. They’ve taught us to worship the false god of capitalism, but that god of ill-gotten affluence blesses only them.

REVIEW
them—in the moving ‘Leave No Trace.’
Traces of Humanity BEN FOSTER IS making a career out of playing men who either can’t or won’t adhere to society’s rules. He was a bank robber in Hell or High Water (2016)— exhilarated, and doomed, by the crimes he commits. In Hostiles (2017), his Sergeant Wills is an unrepentant soldier who’s about to be hanged for murder. What you remember about his performances are the characters’ meanness and their ornery unwillingness to seek redemption. They’re not good or likable men. And you can see something in Foster’s eyes that refuses to be tamed. But as Will in Debra Granik’s Leave No Trace, he reinvigorates these baleful character traits by suppressing rather than expressing them. Will is an army veteran and single dad who’s living in an Oregon forest, off the grid, with his teenage daughter Tom (Thomasin McKenzie). They collect rainwater in a tarp, start fires with the wood they collect during the day and eat their meals together under the stars. Only once do they mention Tom’s mother in a passing reference that obliquely suggests she might have died. Her absence and his military service must account for their mutual attachment, private language and estrangement from civilization. They’re at ease with the natural world and their makeshift, outdoor existence— until they’re discovered by the park’s authorities. What follows their capture is Granik’s examination of a man whose sense of paternal responsibility competes
against his impulse to keep running. Once the state system sets them up with housing, school and work, Will sees his daughter warming up to the idea of a life that includes other people, and possibly even friends. But inside their small flat, he looks like a caged animal. He has to remind his daughter, as much Leave No Trace as he does himself, that they can still have their own thoughts even 109 Mins; PG inside the roof and four walls that Aquarius Theatre, contain them. Palo Alto Jennifer Lawrence received her first Oscar nomination for her role in Granik’s last feature film, Winter’s Bone (2010). The director also elicits a fine performance from McKenzie who plays someone much more vulnerable than the type of woman Lawrence usually projects on screen. Tom’s a devoted daughter who believes that settling down would benefit her troubled dad as much it would herself. But Foster is as quietly compelling in his role as Judy Davis was in the similarly themed Gillian Armstrong film High Tide (1987). Davis too was a parent caught inside that painful vortex between duty and self-preservation. And, like Davis’ character, we can feel the agony behind Will’s decision to stay or go without Foster ever having to say a single word. —Jeffrey Edalatpour

JONESIN’ Counting Crows frontman Adam Duritz has led his band to the 25-year mark.
Rain Kings Even on gloomy days, Counting Crows always find the silver lining BY NICK VERONIN
S
OME ROCK STARS hate interviews and only reluctantly chat to the largest outlets after some serious badgering from their publicist. Others, like Counting Crows frontman Adam Duritz, seem to genuinely enjoy chopping it up with strangers.
Duritz, who comes to Shoreline Amphitheatre this week, is celebrating the 25th anniversary of his band’s debut full-length August and Everything After. After just a few moments on the phone, it’s clear he likes to shoot the breeze. He’s interesting—and he knows a lot about music.
It makes sense, then, that Duritz would have his own podcast, Underwater Sunshine, which he records with a friend—author and music journalist James Campion. In the time they’ve been taping they’ve done a four-week series on punk rock, beginning with the proto punk of the late ’60s and moving up to the latest in the genre. They’ve discussed road trip music and background vocals. And they’ve been working on a new podcast dedicated to the work of Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo, the production duo known as The Neptunes. “We just try to surprise each other with the stuff we come up with,” Duritz says on the phone in Oakland.
He grew up in the East Bay and at the time of this interview was in town to catch the first game of the NBA finals between the Warriors and Cavs. In 1974, when Duritz was 10 years old, he moved to Oakland from Texas with his family. After playing in a number of local bands in the ’80s, he founded the Counting Crows with producer and guitarist David Bryson in 1991. These were the early days of the “alternative rock” radio format—a platform that found success giving airplay to bands that fused punk, new wave and indie rock with a heaping helping of pop sensibility. But as it always goes with genres, the bands that end up lumped together never really feel like any one category can define what they are trying to do. “When we started out, we were a ‘college radio’ band,” Duritz observes, noting that his “alternative” predecessors, like R.E.M., were first played by deadpan DJs on the low end of the FM dial. It just so happened that when August and Everything After blew up, the alternative format was new, and so this young band from San Francisco ended up sharing airspace with grunge,
pop-punk and third-wave ska bands. “Suddenly we’re an alternative band.” But that only lasted a year or so. Once August sold 10 million copies, Counting Crows found themselves all over the radio dial—bounding from Live 105 to KFOG and even making appearances on the Top 40 stations. “For the rest of our career we never really fit into anything,” Duritz shrugs, explaining that it didn’t matter how critics categorized his band’s music. “It always made sense to us to do whatever we felt like doing. I think that accidentally made our music kind of timeless in a way.” This music critic agrees. From the moment I first started caring about music, Counting Crows have always loomed large. Their first three records—August, Recovering the Satellites and This Desert Life—have remained standbys. There’s almost always one or two songs from each of those collections that I can call up to match my mood. There’s a bright and carefree quality to “Mr. Jones” and “Hangin’ Around”—perfect bookends for a night on the town and the subsequent hangover (one spent laughing at half-recalled, debauched antics); there’s the punky kiss-off of “Angels of the Silences;” the self-absorbed gloom of “Perfect Blue Buildings;” and the darkly optimistic “Long December.” All of these songs expertly walk a tightrope between despair or desperation and the comfort of remembering that tomorrow is another day. Perhaps this philosophy—this glass-half-full outlook—has helped Counting Crows make it to the 25year mark. “It’s crazy,” says the 53-year-old Duritz, reflecting on the fact that he’s been in the band for nearly half his life. “I’m really proud of it,” he says of helming Counting Crows for a quarter-century, noting that very few musicians he knew back in the ’90s are still making music. “I’m really proud of the fact that we’ve kept it together.”

ADVICE GODDESS
By AMY ALKON
AdviceAmy@AOL.com
I got ghosted—dumped by a guy who just disappeared on me, no explanation— after three months of lovey-dovey dating. Clearly, he isn’t a great person, yet I’m unable to stop thinking about him and wondering why he left. How do I accept that it’s over so I can start dating again?—Plagued It’s hard on the ego to learn why somebody’s leaving you, but it beats needing a Ouija board. It’s the mystery that’s causing the problem. Typically, when rotten things happen to us, our feel-bad emotions rise up—driving us to take a wiser course of action the next time so we’ll keep those bad feelings from popping by again. Knowing the wiser course starts with knowing what to avoid. But all you’ve got is a terrible itch—the itch of uncertainty about why this guy vanished—and little hope of yanking him in to give you answers. However, you can probably dupe your mind into believing it has the answer. Research by cognitive neuroscientist Michael Gazzaniga suggests our mind is quick to create stories to fill in and make sense out of incomplete information—and then we tend to go right ahead and believe our stories. To take advantage of this, imagine a possible reason the guy vamoosed on you—and then just decide to accept it as THE reason.
What might also help is transforming your thoughts of the guy into a material object—a piece of garbage, in fact— and throwing it away. And yes, I get that this sounds absurd, but there’s a growing area of social science research— embodied cognition—that finds taking action is a highly efficient way to change our feelings. Accordingly, social psychologist Pablo Brinol had research participants write a negative thought on a piece of paper and then rip the paper up and throw it into a nearby trash can. This actually led to participants “mentally disposing” of their disturbing thinking to a great degree. Should the guy sneak back into your thoughts, don’t worry; just widen the shot. Shift your focus from him to yourself—looking at how you maybe crossed your fingers that you had a keeper instead of seeing whether that actually was the case. Understanding what you should do differently is the first step toward expanding the male companionship in your life.
My husband and I are both 70, and we have a good, satisfying sex life. I found out recently that he masturbates now and then. I was puzzled and hurt, but he said he just doesn’t want to bother me all the time. Should I be worried that he’s masturbating?—In The Dark You really want your husband to hit you up for some sex whenever the urge strikes him? Imagine the call: “Hi, honey. I’m in the golf course bathroom. How quickly can you get down here?” As long as your husband isn’t ditching sex with you for his knucklelove sessions, his masturbating isn’t something you should take personally. People masturbate because they’re bored, they’re tense, they can’t sleep, or their phone needs to recharge. Also, there are times when a person just wants to get off solo— maybe because they’re short on time and maybe because they’re low on emotional energy (and their hand doesn’t get miffy if they don’t cuddle it afterward and tell it it’s beautiful). Still, maybe you’re thinking, “Well, why can’t he just wait till I’m around?”
And it’s understandable that you’d think that—maybe because you’re just fine with waiting. And if you are, that may be because you’re a woman. Social psychologist Roy Baumeister and his colleagues, surveying piles of studies, explain that men tend to have a far stronger sex drive, with “more frequent and more intense sexual desires than women.” That’s surely why it’s primarily men (and probably single men) who show up in emergency rooms with embarrassing sex-for-onerelated injuries—like wiener-in-thevacuum-cleaner lacerations. So, back to your question: Should you be worried that he’s masturbating? No, you should be celebrating! Bake his penis a cake! That’s what we do for people who are still alive at 70. Why not for their sex parts?

FREE WILL ASTROLOGY ARIES (March 21-April 19): Twentieth-century
French novelist Marcel Proust described 19thcentury novelist Gustave Flaubert as a trottoire roulant, or “rolling sidewalk”: plodding, toneless, droning. Meanwhile, critic Roger Shattuck compared Proust’s writing to an “electric generator” from which flowed a “powerful current always ready to shock not only our morality but our very sense of humanity.” In the coming weeks, I encourage you to find a middle ground between Flaubert and Proust. See if you can be moderately exciting, gently provocative and amiably enchanting. My analysis of the cosmic rhythms suggests that such an approach is likely to produce the best long-term results.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): You remind me of Jack,
the 9-year-old Taurus kid next door, who took up skateboarding on the huge trampoline his two moms put in their backyard. Like him, you seem eager to travel in two different modes at the same time. (And I’m glad to see you’re being safe; you’re not doing the equivalent of, say, having sex in a car or breakdancing on an escalator.) When Jack first began, he had difficulty in coordinating the bouncing with the rolling. But after a while he got good at it. I expect that you, too, will master your complex task.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): From the day you were born, you have been cultivating a knack for mixing and blending. Along the way, you have accomplished mergers that would have been impossible for a lot of other people. Some of your experiments in amalgamation are legendary. If my astrological assessments are accurate, the year 2019 will bring forth some of your all-time most marvelous combinations and unifications. I expect you are even now setting the stage for those future fusions; you are building the foundations that will make them natural and inevitable. What can you do in the coming weeks to further that preparation? CANCER (June 21-July 22): An open letter to
Cancerians from Rob Brezsny’s mother, Felice: I want you to know that I played a big role in helping my Cancerian son become the empathetic, creative, thoughtful, crazy character he is today. I nurtured his idiosyncrasies. I made him feel secure and well-loved. My care freed him to develop his unusual ideas and life. So as you read Rob’s horoscopes, remember that there’s part of me inside him. And that part of me is nurturing you just as I once nurtured him. I and he are giving you love for the quirky, distinctive person you actually are, not some fantasy version of you. I and he are helping you feel more secure and well-appreciated. Now, I encourage you to cash in on all that support. As Rob has told me, it’s time for you Cancerians to reach new heights in your drive to express your unique self.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): The ghost orchid is a rare
white wildflower that disappeared from the British countryside around 1986. The nation’s botanists declared it officially extinct in 2005. But four years later, a tenacious amateur located a specimen growing in the West Midlands area. The species wasn’t gone forever after all. I foresee a comparable revival for you in the coming weeks, Leo. An interesting influence or sweet thing that you imagined to be permanently defunct may return to your life. Be alert!

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): The ancient Greek poet
Sappho described “a sweet-apple turning red high on the tip of the topmost branch.” The apple pickers left it there, she suggested, but not because they missed seeing it. It was just too high. “They couldn’t reach it,” wrote Sappho. Let’s use this scenario as a handy metaphor for your current situation, Virgo. I am assigning you the task of doing whatever is necessary to fetch that glorious, seemingly unobtainable sweet-apple. It may not be easy. You’ll probably need to summon extra ingenuity to reach it, as well as some as yet unguessed form of help. (The Sappho translation is by Julia Dubnoff.)
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): Is there any prize more precious than knowing your calling? Can any other satisfaction compare with the joy of understanding why you’re here on Earth? In my view, it’s the supreme blessing: to have discovered the tasks that can ceaselessly educate and impassion you; to do the work or play that enables you to offer your best
By ROB BREZSNY week of July 4
gifts; to be intimately engaged with an activity that consistently asks you to overcome your limitations and grow into a more complete version of yourself. For some people, their calling is a job: marine biologist, kindergarten teacher, advocate for the homeless. For others, it’s a hobby, like long-distance running, bird-watching or mountain-climbing. St. Therese of Lisieux said, “My calling is love!” Poet Marina Tsvetaeva said her calling was “to listen to my soul.” Do you know yours, Libra? Now is an excellent time to either discover yours or home in further on its precise nature.
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Have you entertained
any high-quality fantasies about faraway treasures lately? Have you delivered inquiring communiqués to any promising beauties who may ultimately offer you treats? Have you made long-distance inquiries about speculative possibilities that could be inclined to travel in your direction from their frontier sanctuaries? Would you consider making some subtle change in yourself so that you’re no longer forcing the call of the wild to wait and wait and wait?
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): If a down-to-earth
spiritual teacher advised you to go on a five-day meditation retreat in a sacred sanctuary, would you instead spend five days carousing with meth addicts in a cheap hotel? If a close friend confessed a secret she had concealed from everyone for years, would you unleash a nervous laugh and change the subject? If you read a horoscope that told you now is a favorable time to cultivate massive amounts of reverence, devotion, respect, gratitude, innocence and awe, would you quickly blank it out of your mind and check your Instagram and Twitter accounts on your phone?
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): A typical working
couple devotes an average of four minutes per day to focused conversation with each other. And it’s common for a child and parent to engage in meaningful communication for just 20 minutes per week. I bring these sad facts to your attention, Capricorn, because I want to make sure you don’t embody them in the coming weeks. If you hope to attract the best of life’s blessings, you will need to give extra time and energy to the fine art of communing with those you care about.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Allergies, irritants,
stings, hypersensitivities: sometimes you can make these annoyances work in your behalf. For example, my allergy to freshly cut grass meant that when I was a teenager, I never had to waste my Saturday afternoons mowing the lawn in front of my family’s suburban home. And the weird itching that plagued me whenever I got into the vicinity of my first sister’s fiancé? If I had paid attention to it, I wouldn't have lent him the $350 that he never repaid. So my advice, my itchy friend, is to be thankful for the twitch and the prickle and the pinch. In the coming days, they may offer you tips and clues that could prove valuable.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Are you somehow growing younger? Your stride seems bouncier and your voice sounds more buoyant. Your thoughts seem fresher and your eyes brighter. I won’t be surprised if you buy yourself new toys or jump in mud puddles. What’s going on? Here’s my guess: You’re no longer willing to sleepwalk your way through the most boring things about being an adult. You may also be ready to wean yourself from certain responsibilities unless you can render them pleasurable at least some of the time. I hope so. It’s time to bring more fun and games into your life Homework: Is there an area of your life where your effects are different from your intentions? Testify at Freewillastrology.com.
