Thanks to the San Jose Metro for talking to us while enjoying bagels! Love you all!
My co-workers are boring, insipid people and I'd rather slap myself in the face repeatedly than spend more than the contractually obligated eight hours with them. So, to me, work parties are salt in an already painfully infected wound. The only thing I look forward to at these things are the desserts, which makes it incredibly aggravating when people hog more than their fair share. That's where you come in. You, a large, unkempt man, clearly never grasped the concept of a clothing iron. At first, I paid you no mind because I’ve had bad laundry days, too. That changed when you grabbed three cookies from the dessert tray. The last three cookies. Those could’ve gone to three people—myself included! As revenge, I passiveaggressively commented on whether the wrinkles on your shirt were a design choice. Hopefully, it made you a little less self-assured. Next time, don’t fuck with my cookies!

I’ve been getting this email from different names/email addresses for about six weeks. First one was a bit alarming, because it did reveal a very old email password (my original Yahoo one; thanks, Yahoo). Checked my passwords, and that one had not been in use for years. Once I got another from a different source, I knew it was a random scam. MICHAEL VIA SAN JOSE INSIDE

THE FLY
School Runnings
SVNEWS
Six people are running for three seats on the Santa Clara County Board of Education, including two incumbents and some controversial challengers. Appointed incumbent KATHLEEN KING is up against notoriously abrasive Cupertino Councilman BARRY CHANG in West Valley’s Trustee Area 2. And in Trustee Area 7, which spans South County, CLAUDIA ROSSI will defend her spot against one of her most outspoken critics, Morgan Hill Unified trustee GINO BORGIOLI. The third seat on the Nov. 6 ballot spans San Jose’s East Side. Initially, it looked like Mt. Pleasant School District trustee PETER ORTIZ would run unopposed for the Trustee Area 6 seat since incumbent DARCIE GREEN plans to resign after finishing out this term. But a surprising contender emerged at the last minute.
KIARA KASSANDRA, who works for San Jose Vice Mayor MAGDALENA CARRASCO, filed to run at the last minute, making things more than a little awkward for Ortiz They since her boss already Did endorsed his run. Ortiz What? said Kassandra’s entry SEND TIPS TO into the race took him FLY@ by surprise, but that it METRONEWS. might have something COM to do with her brother, ADAN LUPERCIO, working for the Charter Schools Association. “I don’t want to speculate,” Ortiz said, “but maybe she saw that I was unopposed and wanted to make me work for it.” It’s hard to say, since Kassandra didn’t return Fly’s calls and email for comment, filed no candidate statement and has no campaign website. But some see her run as more of a favor than a challenge, giving Ortiz a reason to raise campaign cash and solicit endorsements to raise his political profile. Ortiz says he highly doubts that. “That would have been very nice of her,” he says with a laugh. “But I know 100 percent that her brother doesn’t like me, and that’s more likely what this is about. Let’s just say that it’s not ideal.”
TMI Though Palantir’s work with Santa Clara County has a humanitarian aim, activists worry about the company’s involvement with controversial law enforcement and surveillance contracts.
All-Seeing AI Privacy advocates question Santa Clara County’s work with Palantir BY JENNIFER WADSWORTH
T
HE SOFTWARE is remarkable. Transformative, even.
Combing through hundreds of millions of records from Santa Clara County’s criminal justice system, hospitals, shelters and charities, it draws connections that human analysts might miss. The data-mining service developed by Palantir Technologies identifies people who cycle in and out of jails and emergency rooms the most, which helps the county prioritize who to help. Since launching the program called Project Welcome Home in 2015, the county has housed 111 chronically unsheltered people. On the streets, each of those clients cost the public $62,473 a year in emergency services, according to the county; with a roof over their heads, that figure dropped to $19,767.
But the project’s association with Palantir has recently come under scrutiny by privacy advocates who are increasingly wary of Silicon Valley’s role in the U.S. security establishment—particularly Palantir’s ties to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). “Given my work and knowing the company’s role in law enforcement and surveillance, I can say they’re a bit of a creepy choice,” says Mike Katz-Lacabe, who founded the Center for Human Rights and Privacy. Dozens of protesters who gathered outside Palantir’s Palo Alto headquarters last month voiced a similar sentiment, singling out the company’s $53 million “mission critical” contract with ICE, which dates back to the Obama administration but gained widespread attention under President Trump. They presented a letter to
CEO Alex Karp demanding that he stop aiding federal efforts to deport millions of immigrants. The July 31 demonstration was part of a nationwide day of action—amplified on social media under the #WeWontBeComplicit hashtag—against businesses, schools and government entities linked to Trump’s deportation machine. The county’s contract with the tech firm co-founded by libertarian billionaire Peter Thiel slipped below the radar of last month’s rallies. Perhaps that’s because the county’s work with Palantir has an altruistic aim and outcome—unlike the military and policing contracts for which the company is better known. Or because of the demographic it targets. “The fact that it’s happening to people who often don’t have a voice, people in desperate situations and amassing a whole bunch of data only on them could explain why this hasn’t gotten as much scrutiny,” KatzLacabe said. After reading through the county’s 31page agreement with Palantir, he added: “Combining health and criminal data on individuals seems Orwellian to me. ... This wouldn’t be acceptable to any other group of individuals.” Since the county entered into its deal

with Palantir a year before the Board of Supervisors adopted a policy governing spyware and surveillance technology, Katz-Lacabe said it’s worth revisiting the matter with public discussion. Especially, he added, since California and the county have positioned themselves as part of the resistance against Trump, suing the administration to oppose arguably discriminatory and antiimmigrant policies. “In light of that,” Katz-Lacabe said in an interview this week, “they have an extraordinary obligation to be very transparent.” After teaming up with the county for Project Welcome Home, a six-year rapid re-housing effort led by the nonprofit Abode Services, Palantir helped launch a second initiative called Partners in Wellness, which provides mental health services to about 250 people with severe psychiatric disorders. Part of the interest in tracking the efficacy of the two initiatives goes back to the funding model itself, a public-private approach to charity that uses an “outcomes-based” model to determine success. Also called “pay for success,” the financing deal starts with an up-front investment from the private sector— in this case $6.9 million from for-profit and philanthropic backers including Google and the Laura and John Arnold Foundation. A designated adviser keeps the project on track while an independent evaluator studies its impacts. The government only foots the bill if and when the project produces measurable results. Palantir initially offered its software to the county free of charge and has since become a paid contractor, but one that offers bargain-basement prices. The county’s Behavioral Health Department struck up a $400,000 deal with the data firm and the Affordable Housing Office a $250,000 agreement—both of which sunset in 2022. Lead Deputy County Counsel Greta Hansen stresses that the agreement with Palantir includes strict privacy protections to prevent sharing data with outside entities. It also authorizes the county to conduct compliance audits, although officials could not immediately answer how many of those reviews have been done. Further, Hansen said Palantir obtains only as much information as it needs to do its job, that each client must consent
to having their information collected and that citizenship status of the clients served isn’t a factor. “County policy has been really crystal clear since 2010 that county services aren’t conditioned on immigration status,” she said. “We serve all folks and the county is prohibited from sharing anything with ICE.” Abode Executive Director Louis Chicoine echoed Hansen’s assurance, noting that the people served by the initiative tend to be legal residents anyway. “Chronic homeless target populations are generally not coming from a new immigrant population, but rather more often long-term local residents of the county,” he said. Eunice Hernandez, an organizer for Sacred Heart Community Services who works with a cross-section of clients that include the undocumented and unhoused, said she feels uneasy about that kind of generalization. While it may be generally true that homeless people in the South Bay have been longtime residents, Hernandez has firsthand experience working with people who are both undocumented and unsheltered. It’s also worth noting that many of the county’s 200,000-orso undocumented immigrants are longterm—sometimes almost lifelong— residents themselves. Or that there are other ways to determine citizenship without entering that information directly into a field on some form or computer screen. Granted, Palantir is hardly the only Silicon Valley company with U.S. intelligence and surveillance links. Google, Microsoft and Salesforce have come under fire from their own ranks this year for contracts with the military and special forces, the CIA, the National Security Agency and ICE. But this county has held itself to a higher standard by adopting policies protecting healthcare information and limiting police surveillance. Hernandez said the public has greater expectations as they become more aware of the role these technologies play in daily life—for better or worse. “There’s already so much distrust in the government,” she said. “And with more light being shed on Palantir, I think it’s important for the county and anyone who contracts with those companies to tell us what they’re doing to protect people.”

DOING SOMETHING WRITE Vanessa Hua is is one of three Asian-American women to receive a Steinbeck Fellowship in Creative Writing from San Jose State University.
Scribe & Scholar Steinbeck Fellows record experiences of Asian-American women BY GARY SINGH
I
F PEOPLE can trace Kerouac’s footsteps in North Beach or harmonize the vibes of Dashiell Hammett at John’s Grill, then certainly there should be Vanessa Hua literary tours through the underbelly of Chinatown. Released last week, Hua’s debut novel, A River of Stars, gets rolling right away when two pregnant Chinese women escape an illegal maternity clinic in SoCal before stealing a van and driving to San Francisco.
A San Francisco Chronicle columnist, Hua is also one of three AsianAmerican women, along with R.O. Kwon and Kirstin Chen, who in recent years received a Steinbeck Fellowship in Creative Writing from San Jose State University, and who released a novel to rocking fanfare in 2018. Every academic season, the Steinbeck Center at SJSU sponsors a handful of one-year fellowships for writers of any age or background to pursue a writing project while in residence at SJSU. The projects need not relate to Steinbeck, but they must be promising enough to warrant support. With Hua, Kwon and
Chen all releasing books this year, a glorious convergence is afoot. A River of Stars unfolds on multiple levels as a dark, humorous and ultimately hopeful story of two undocumented single moms struggling to overcome obstacles in the underbelly of Chinatown to achieve a piece of what it means to be American. In the book, we get to know Scarlett, pregnant with the child of a Chinese mob boss who sent her to LA in order to conceive her kid on US soil for citizenship purposes. At the illegal facility—these places actually exist— she lives under lock and key, along with many other pregnant Chinese. Scarlett then escapes with Daisy, a teenager similarly pregnant, yet longing for her boyfriend who has since disappeared. Together, they make it to San Francisco and dissolve into Chinatown, where they give birth to their children and develop an increasingly close friendship, all while struggling for work, housing and camaraderie, plus ways to achieve legal status and acceptance in the
Chinese-American community. Meanwhile, the mobster who fathered Scarlett’s child scrambles to track her down, aided by Mama Fang, the woman who operated the illegal clinic. After the clinic falls apart, Fang winds up in Cupertino, running a facility that gives vitamin IV drips to schoolchildren to help them overachieve. The mob boss becomes ensnared in various other counterplots, including a scheme to secretly bankroll immortality research at Stanford. But Hua is just one AsianAmerican Steinbeck Fellow from SJSU to hit the shelves this year. R.O. Kwon’s book, The Incendiaries, is exploding onto the charts as you read this. A zillion outlets from The New Yorker all the way down to obscure book nerd portals are raving over Kwon’s compact prose. In my view, The Incendiaries is a gorgeously bleak psychological horror novel. A college-age woman gradually gets sucked into a violent religious cult that bombs abortion clinics, yet the book is narrated in retrospect by her obsessive ex-boyfriend as he grapples to understand what happened to their lives. At just over 200 pages, The Incendiaries leaves an eerie aftertaste—not the type of thing one expects to see on women’s lists of “summer beach reads,” yet it landed on many such lists. Kwon was born in Seoul, yet grew up in SoCal and now lives in San Francisco. The third novelist in our equation, Kirstin Chen, grew up in Singapore and even taught at SJSU for a spell. Now an adjunct professor at USF, she released her second novel, Bury What We Cannot Take, last spring. In yet another tale of abandonment, loss and longing, Chen placed the book in early Maoist China, late ’50s, on Drum Wave Islet off the coast of Xiamen. A family rejects the new Communist regime and escapes to Hong Kong, but is forced to leave their daughter behind as proof of the family’s intent to return. Chen’s detailed historical research enlivens the narrative, as the daughter, a 9-year-old named San San, becomes a heroic protagonist in trying to escape her emotional isolation and reconnect with her real family. At times, it’s quite sad. All of which means we are experiencing a triple shot of AsianAmerican women Steinbecks, right here and now. The ol’ Nobel Laureate would be proud.

T
HE MORE THINGS change, the more they stay the same. That’s a maxim. It’s also more than a bit trite. In the face of the everevolving flow of the universe, it takes discipline to maintain a meaningful practice.
As the Sunnyvale Community Players and San Jose Taiko celebrate their 50th and 45th anniversaries, respectively, the Chicano music-melders
at the San Jose-based Sonido Clash music- and party-promotion collective are nearing the decade mark. While each of these outfits
continue to work in their own distinct idiom, the cumulative effect of their dedication is a diverse and interesting South Bay scene, consisting of classical and cuttingedge art forms. All of the artists and arts organizations highlighted in this year’s Fall Arts issue have put a
great deal of sweat equity into their individual crafts. That’s why they are worth celebrating. In the following pages, you will find a discerning guide to the best that the upcoming season has to offer in local, theater, visual art, concerts and film. So break out those datebooks and read on.

Latin Flair Sonido Clash readies third annual Music Fest
F
OR NEARLY 10 years, the San Jose-based Sonido Clash arts collective has been working to shine a light on the diversity of Latino arts and culture in the South Bay.
“San Jose is a little spot that sometimes gets no love,” says
Fernando Fiesco of Sonido Clash. It’s a problem many within the local creative community know all too well. But now, in the face of Silicon Valley’s rapid expansion, Fiesco says that he is more conscious of the issue than ever before—even while some artists and venues are benefiting from the region’s growth.
“It’s great that The Ritz is doing well,” Fiesco says, referring to the live music club, which recently struck a deal with L.A.-based production company Spaceland Presents and has been booking bigger-name artists as a result. However, Fiesco adds, he is worried that as more money comes to downtown San Jose, the work of previous generations of Latino creatives may be swept away by the forces of gentrification. Zoot Suit playwright Luis Valdez, lowrider culture and Los Tigres Del Norte all have strong ties to San Jose.
And today, the South Bay continues to produce and attract artists who blend their Latino heritage with their American identities. Composed mostly of MexicanAmerican musicians, artist and promoters, Sonido Clash has been uplifting these types of creators and curating events that celebrate the cultural mashups they produce since 2009. In its early years, Sonido Clash focused on smaller monthly parties. But of late, the collective’s energy has

SHE’S A PISTOL Rosa Pistola is one of the many genre-blurring artists at Sonido Clash Music Fest. shifted to putting on larger events like a Selena Tribute Party, celebrating not only the life and music of the famed Tejano singer but also the women she inspired. “We’re not just using the name and pushing a gimmick,” Fiesco says, noting that the festival’s line-up includes mostly female performers. “We don’t feel like it should be a male-dominated bill.” Then, of course, there’s the collective’s crown jewel—their self-titled festival. Now in its third year, the Sonido Clash Music Fest features its most diverse lineup yet. Fiesco says he and the rest of the Sonido Clash crew worked hard to put together an eclectic bill that demonstrates the breadth of the local Latino music scene. “We basically defeated a lot of the stereotypes in music that [Latinos] just wear cowboy hats and boots,” he says. With everything from ’80s electronic artists like The Egyptian Lover, New York punks Ratas En Zelo and Chicano Batman bassist Eduardo Arenas’ solo project É Arenas, the
festival proves just how diverse Latino music can be. It closes with Cuban music legend Alberto Pedraza. Tickets are priced to keep the festival accessible, Fiesco says. The most expensive are $45, while admission is free for kids 12 and under. “It’s about giving platforms to young people— anyone, really, in the art community,” Fiesco says. “Being sort of on the fringes of Silicon Valley, being here and being that class that works, grinds and keep the lights on in this city, we do it for that young person who didn’t know there could be event like this in their own backyard.”— Estefany Gonzalez

OMEN IN BUTTON-up blouses tucked into mid-length skirts twirl alongside men in suspenders and vests. Their white tennis shoes leap to the rhythm of swing music, as Japanese drums join in this cross-cultural dance.
This was the scene in San Jose’s Japantown back in May of this year. The “Swingposium” bridged the high-flying, big band-fueled American musical style of swing with the traditional Japanese tradition of taiko drumming. The performance was one of many planned for this year to celebrate the 45th anniversary of San Jose Taiko. Those who missed “Swingposium” the first time around still have a chance to check it out—along with much more. The company will be bringing its best moments back to the stage in a series of three shows to mark the anniversary and showcase the company’s proud history. “With this concert, we are celebrating the commonalities that connect us to each other even in times of crisis: music, art, spirit,” says Wisa Uemura, executive director of San Jose Taiko. The company, she notes, was founded in 1973, born out of a desire to
connect young Asian Americans to their heritage and during a time when they were grappling with their collective identity. “This season, we have reflected on our roots and how they have helped determine the messages we convey with our work.” The first half of the concert presents highlights from ‘Swingposium.” It also includes a collaboration with Aswat Ensemble, a Bay Area-based Arab music ensemble that has worked with the company on projects advocating support between Japanese Americans and Muslim Americans. “With this show, I’d like to propose optimism as a radical movement— not a view through rose-colored glasses, but one of refusal to give up hope for an understanding and compassionate world,” says Franco Imperial, San Jose Taiko’s artistic director. The second half of the program gives the audience a front-row look into the company’s 45-year repertoire with a medley of 30 of San Jose Taiko’s greatest hits. “When you experience taiko as a performer or observer,
it can be a reminder of how we’re all connected by heartbeat,” said Imperial. “What a great starting point for people of different perspectives.”

Going The Distance Sunnyvale Community Players celebrate 50 years on stage BY VICTORIA KEZRA
S
IX YEARS AGO the Sunnyvale Community Players were still sending out postcards in an effort to drum up attendance and increase subscribership, using paper mailers, despite the fact that the theater group stages their productions in the heart of Silicon Valley. Facing competition from the myriad entertainment options now available to anyone with a touchscreen handset, the Players knew they had to adapt to survive. Now, thanks to new leadership willing to push creative boundaries with their repertoire and promote via social media, the company is not only surviving—they are thriving.
The Players will open their 50th anniversary season with Grease in the fall, followed by Cabaret, a junior production of Bye Bye Birdie featuring performers all under the age of 18, and an ambitious closing production,The Wiz. “With everything that has happened with arts in Silicon Valley… that a small community company can make it 50 years is as testament to
the perseverance of the people that are a part of it,” says Anna Williams, a former Players board president who first joined the company as a prop maker when her daughter was cast in a production. The Sunnyvale Community Players began 1969 as a small non-profit company performing in venues around the South Bay. According to

board member and Players archive historian Sam Saunders, the group was co-founded by Virginia Hannum and Margaret Wozniak, mother of Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak. Originally a youth company, the first show the Players staged was Come Blow Your Horn under the name the Junior Players. In 1973 the group was adopted by the city of Sunnyvale and staged its first young adult production, West Side Story. The Players have stuck to the formula of opening each season with a family-friendly show, followed by a more adult-oriented show, a junior’s production and a big closer. Kevin Surace has been with the company since 1995 and will serve as musical director for this year’s production of Grease as well as coproducer and musical director for The Wiz. He says that within the last five years or so, under the direction of board president Steve Shapiro, the Sunnyvale Community Players have grown to produce shows that rival those of professional theater groups he has worked with, such as Rubicon Theater Company. The company’s reputation has expanded beyond the South Bay: Performers traveled from Hayward and Oakland to audition for the Players’ production of Grease. The company has learned to adapt with the times, using social media to promote shows in order to fill the 200-seat theater they perform in.
“There was a time we were like, ‘Well, we’re community theater and [tickets are] $15; what do you expect?’” Surace says. “Now [tickets are] $38 and I want you to expect a world-class performance. I want you to expect virtually professional theater.” In their previous season, the Players staged ambitious productions such as Fiddler on the Roof, which featured a 25-piece orchestra; Avenue Q, which required most cast members to learn puppetry; and a juniors production of The Addams Family complete with a two-story set. A season highlight was casting Eric Sun, a man with terminal cancer, to play the titular Fiddler, an item that was on his bucket list. The anniversary season capper, The Wiz, is set to feature a 28-piece orchestra and a cast of 50 in an updated version of the production the Players did in the ’90s. “The Wiz can be a very eye-popping show,” Surace says. “We wanted to show our history but also where we are going in the future, and we want to show we are going to be pushing the limits of what we can do.”

T
he summer festival season is great for catching legacy acts and buzzy bands enjoying their moment of critical acclaim, but festivals are just a small part of the yearly musical cycle. Much of the lifeblood of music takes place outside of festival—in clubs, bars, DIY venues and occasionally even the SAP Center. This fall, a number of this generation’s most exciting musicians come through the South Bay, most of whom are touring behind new albums. From Spanish punk to Barbie Dreams, this is the best live music happening in the South Bay this fall.
Wild Animals
SEPT 5 | SUBROSA, SANTA CRUZ This May, Spanish indie punks Wild Animals released their second album on SoCal label Lauren Records. Full of melodic bangers, The Hoax draws from a wellspring of tried-andtrue ’90s influences like Superchunk, Dinosaur Jr. and Dillinger Four, as well as more current indie rock acts like Swearin’ and Katie Ellen. On their first-ever American tour, the Madrid band stops by Subrosa in Santa Cruz. On a good day the small anarchist bookstore and community space fits about 50 people, making it the perfect place to catch the kinetic punk band while they’re on top of their game.
Shakira
SEPT 6 | SAP CENTER, SAN JOSE In an age when Kellyanne Conway, Sean Spicer and Sarah Huckabee Sanders have all held positions of authority, it’s comforting to know that at least hips don’t lie. Shakira, she of throaty vocals and diminutive height, brings this eternal truth to the SAP Center this September in all its slinky glory. El Dorado, her 2017 album, may have been under-promoted in the mainstream, but it’s chock-full of classically Shakiran material like the dubby reggaeton of “Clandestino,” and the club-ready “Chatanje,” songs sure to get the crowd going in San Jose.
Tinashe
SEPT 8 | PURE NIGHTCLUB, SUNNYVALE With a voice somewhere between Aaliyah and Rihanna, Tinashe is a pop superstar in the making. She may not be a household name in America yet, but in plenty of places around the globe the former child star is already a major success, placing high on the charts with her trap-pop hit “No Drama” (featuring Offset) and club-ready sizzler “Me So Bad,” both of which are on this May’s Joyride. And with dance moves as good as her voice, club-goers at Pure are in for a great performance by an artist about to break.
Nothing & Culture Abuse
Kneebody
SEPT 21 | ART BOUTIKI, SAN JOSE This one is not to miss. Kneebody is one of the best young jazz groups today. Last year’s Antihero is a record packed with incredible performances, weird compositional choices and, most importantly, great songs. All the songs are good. The groove on “Uprising” could kill a man. Kneebody is the kind of group that pays homage to the greats not by copying them, but by stretching the genre’s boundaries like they did. Getting this kind of talent in a room like Art Boutiki makes for one of the best shows of the fall.
Parquet Courts
SEPT 28 | THE RITZ, SAN JOSE This year Parquet Courts released a song about collective action that’s named after a technique from the 1974 World Cup and ends with the lyric: “Fuck Tom Brady.” It’s good. The album opener for this year’s Wide
Awaaaaake!, “Total Football” is pure nervous energy. Lyrically, it plays out like Marxist poetry, drawing a line that connect Hermann Hesse, the Beatles and the Black Panthers in a struggle against apathy. This is the first time New York band will play San Jose, a welcome sign for those anxious to see more relevant up-and-coming touring acts come through the city.
Childish Gambino OCT 2 | SAP CENTER, SAN JOSE
Childish Gambino’s 2016 album Awaken, My Love! may have spawned the massive hit “Redbone,” but it proved to only be the beginning of a shift for the musician, one that culminated in his massive 2018 banger “This is America.” Like The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, Gambino’s (a.k.a. Donald Glover’s) recent works have made a conscious effort to fuse all elements of the African-American experience, creating something that is both pop and a cultural document. Not bad for a project that started with a Wu-Tang name generator.
24
SEPT 18 | THE RITZ
If heavy shoegaze is a thing (and based on the amount of bands making it, it is), Nothing is near the center of the movement. This month’s Dance on the Blacktop is the third album by the bad-dreamy Philadelphia post-hardcore band, one that continues their tradition of mixing swirling reverb with lyrics about the disgusting banality of bodily existence. Meanwhile, the Bay Area’s own Culture Abuse make impassioned pop played with the vitality of the punk bands they love, and are one of the best bands to emerge from the gentrified mess of modern San Francisco.
The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill Tour
SEPT 20 | SHORELINE AMPHITHEATRE, MOUNTAIN VIEW It’s hard to imagine the last 20 years of music without the era-defining The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill. Winning five Grammy awards the year it was released, the first solo album by the exFugees singer laid the groundwork for pan-African American albums like Kamasi Washington’s The Epic and Kendrick Lamar’s To Pimp a Butterfly, as well as the neo-soul movement of Amy Winehouse and the Dap-Kings. It’s a modern classic, and the

Public Notice
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (AKA drone) pilot program The Santa Clara Valley Water District is proposing to implement a pilot project to utilize Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (otherwise known as “drones”) in land surveying and mapping activities of locations within Santa Clara County. The district has many potential uses of drones including inspecting our construction sites and designing flood protection projects. Over the last few years, drone technology has become more cost effective than the traditional use of piloted aircraft. Because drones fly at lower altitudes than airplanes, the images and data produced can be more precise. The Federal Aviation Administration regulates the operation of drones for nonhobbyists. These regulations ensure that commercial drone operators (or pilots) are trained and certified and that they follow strict safety requirements. The water district has certified drone pilots who will fly our drones during the pilot project. After the proposed pilot project is concluded, district staff will evaluate its effectiveness to determine if the program should continue. More information on the pilot program, including examples of how we would use drones, is available at www.valleywater.org/learning-center/aerial-drone-pilot-program.
How can I provide input on this? We welcome your input. Please send your comments or questions to Land Surveying and Mapping Unit Manager Kris Puthoff at kputhoff@valleywater.org or (408) 630-3718. 08/2018 BA
DONALD’S AMERICA Don’t let Childish Gambino catch you slipping.
Conor Oberst
OCT 5 | COCOANUT GROVE BALLROOM, SANTA CRUZ It wasn’t so long ago that magazines were calling Conor Oberst the next Bob Dylan. Like Dylan, his voice is instantly recognizable, and like Dylan, he takes elements of folk music and weaves emotional journeys into their familiar chord progressions. After more than two decades in music, he’s been a part of indie rock, emo, punk, Americana and just about every diagonal that crosses and bisects them. With him in Santa Cruz is his backing band, the Mystic Valley Band, as well Phoebe Bridgers, a musician whose work is exciting people the way a young Conor Oberst once did.
Mac Miller & Thundercat
OCT 30 | CITY NATIONAL CIVIC, SAN JOSE Somehow, despite having his debut album hit No. 1 on the Billboard top 200s with no major distribution behind it, Mac Miller has remained
something of an underdog. This year’s Swimmer is full of poolside pop that came just in time for the end of summer. But more importantly, Thundercat is opening the show. Thundercat, the low-end wizard who dresses like Ash Ketchum on acid, is one of the most unique voices in instrumental music today, playing bass in way that hardly sounds like an instrument at all. Don’t sleep on the chance to see either in a rare San Jose performance.
Nicki Minaj & Future NOV 16 | SAP CENTER
It’s only been a couple of weeks since Nicki Minaj released Queen, but it’s already spawned thinkpieces about her witchy laugh, freestyles about fucking Stephen Colbert, and one weird piece from Forbes of all places claiming that the album is “hypocritical” (I guess fawning over billionaires’ yachts isn’t paying the bills). With her at the SAP Center is Future, the man whose “Mask Off” made flute the hottest instrument in hip-hop. Like Minaj, Future is saying he’ll have a new album out in time for the tour. Fingers crossed that the clarinet gets a prominent feature this time.

God of Carnage SEP 13-OCT 14 Yasmina Reza’s 2009 Tony Award-winning play tells the story of two sets of bourgeois parents who stop being polite and start getting real. The claws come out as the couples work to broker a civil resolution to their children’s playground altercation.

Hamlet OCT 5 & 6 Shakespeare brings heartbreak, conspiracy, death and more to the stage. After the death of his father and his mother’s hasty marriage to his uncle, Hamlet comes to suspect foul play. Featuring some of the Bard’s most famous passages and ruminating on the eternal themes of life, death and the nature of existence, it’s no wonder this is one of Shakespeare’s most lauded tragedies.
Erth’s Prehistoric Aquarium Adventure OCT 26
Based on the uproarious and heartwarming Will Ferrell holiday vehicle, Elf the Musical follows the North Pole’s favorite elf, Buddy, on his journey to the Big Apple to find his father.

The tyrannosaurus, velociraptor and triceratops once roamed the land. But what was prehistoric life like underwater? Erth’s Prehistoric Aquarium Adventure aims to bring this prehistoric, submarine world to life with the help of puppets, science and the power of imagination.

Debuting at the Denver Center for the Performing Arts in 2014, The Legend of Georgia McBride follows Casey, an Elvis impersonator who performs at a local bar.

With the help of seasoned drag queen Miss Tracy Mills, Casey struts the stage in his new act.
OCT 12 - OCT 28 This drama stars the Pear’s artistic director, Elizabeth Craig, as Hedda, a woman struggling to escape from a life that she finds boring and loveless. Fed up with her husband, she welcomes the return of an old flame and begins exploring her independence, manipulating and knocking down anyone that stands in her way.
13 The Musical
Girls Kill Nazis
NOV 2-11 Transitioning to adulthood can seem overwhelming for someone who is just 12 years old. For Evan, it’s definitely no walk in the park. He’s moved to a new state, has a new school and is trying to find new friends—all before his Bar Mitzvah. This coming-of-age story follows a young boy learning the ways of friendship and that being popular in school doesn’t matter in the end.

Letting a woman into the circle is no small decision to make, and no big decision should be made without a good drink (although the explorers have a terrible bartender).

Diane Samuels: It’s a Long Story NOV. 10-FEB. 3
FREE EVENT
Diane Samuels isn’t kidding with the title of her exhibit It’s a Long Story. She’s handwritten in micro-script the entire text of Herman Melville’s opus Moby Dick. Samuels transcribes literary material onto remnants of recycled paper
and then paints over the words with images drawn from the source. Look for a scroll of The Odyssey and Salman Rushdie’s Midnight Children made into the shape of India.
Lorrie Fredette: Tender Exchanges NOV. 17-FEB. 3 Get ready to immerse yourself in Lorrie Fredette’s ganglia. Her immersive sculptures resemble tree roots and fungi as much as they look like enormous versions of neural networks. Fredette uses gauze the way that Louise Bourgeois uses bronze to weld her spiders together. You’ll be confronted with her phantom limbs as you creep around the gallery.
Tracey Adams and Virginia Folkestad: Primordial Soup NOV. 17-FEB. 3 More gangling things hang down from the ceiling in Primordial Soup. Inspired by a chemistry professor’s study of ocean specimens, Adams and Folkestad have sculpted marine microorganisms writ large. Bacteria from the sea have never looked this beautiful.

Miguel Machuca: Drawing Light from Darkness
SEPT. 8 - JAN. 26, 2020
AUG. 11-OCT. 21
Lisa Coscino, the Executive Director of the NUMU, assures me that Sis Boom Bah! is “going to be amazing!” The exhibit will transform the idea of high school itself into a work of art, a “three-dimensional yearbook” that will survey more than 100 years of Los Gatos High School’s history. Let’s assume that you didn’t have to be one of the popular kids in school to enjoy it.
One of Machuca’s vibrantly colored murals adorns a wall at Millbrook Elementary School in San Jose. But the artist is also a master at drawing charcoal shadows. The darkness in his solo show comes, in part, from a cancer diagnosis. The good news is there’s as much light as there is darkness in the show, as Machuca’s health is on the mend.
The Circle of Truth
Michael Shemchuk: Paper Trails
OCT. 18 - MARCH 10, 2019 Ooh, a secret collaboration between 49 artists! Laura Hipke and Shane Guffogg came up with the idea to use the Telephone Game as a means to create artistic connections. According to the rules they devised, “the first painting created by Guffogg was delivered along with a blank canvas to the second artist in the Circle.” But none of the artists knew the identity of the others. The end results are assembled together in this exhibit.
SAN JOSE museum of ART 11 S MARKET ST, SAN JOSE SJMUSART.ORG | 408.271.6480
Dinh Q. Lê: True Journey Is Return SEPT. 14–APRIL 7, 2019 Vietnamese-American artist Dinh Q. Lê’s floral weavings of found photographs like Crossing the Farther Shore are astonishing. He uses linen tape and thread to assemble them. Also included in the exhibit are video and photography installations. This is an impressive body of work by an artist who contends with “narratives of war and migration” from the people of Vietnam and other voices from the Vietnamese diaspora.
Other Walks, Other Lines NOV. 2–MARCH 10, 2019 Before Rebecca Solnit published her popular collection of essays Men Explain Things to Me, she wrote Wanderlust: A History of Walking. This exhibit takes inspiration from that book and unites a group of artists who, in various ways, consider what it means to take the world’s sensations in at a slower pace. Visitors will not be penalized in any way should they drive to the museum.
AUG. 4 - OCT. 28, 2018 If abstraction appeals to your aesthetic sensibilities, look no further than Paper Trails. Shemchuk paints patterns and then mucks them up. The chaos on his canvases communicate a randomness. Meaning, if there’s any to begin with, dissolves. The journey of life is messy, and this artist locks that disorder down for his audience.
Testament of the Spirit: Paintings by Eduardo Carrillo OCT. 27- JAN. 27, 2019 Recently featured at the Pasadena Museum of California Art, Carillo’s exhibit Testament of the Spirit moves to the Triton this fall. Carrillo, who died in 1997, helped to promote Latin American culture and an appreciation of Chicano art and culture. The exhibit also features a film by Pedro Pablo Celedón that introduces his life and work to viewers.

Agnes Martin / Navajo Blankets SEP. 27– OCT. 28 In a clever approach to curation, the patterns of Navajo blankets will be paired with Agnes Martin’s (1912–2004) abstract canvases. The parallels become immediately apparent when you see them side by side. The juxtaposition of the two fields should work to confirm the skill and craftsmanship involved in the creation of both artistic endeavors.

H
EROES, PLAIN AND simple, are a big part of the upcoming season, with Robin Hood, the Girl With the Dragon Tattoo, Adonis Creed and Spider-Man all acting as anecdotes to scoundrel-laden times. The particularly exciting fall line up of films—to say nothing of the cornucopia on streaming— is led by Barry Jenkins’ followup to his knockout Moonlight. It’s his adaptation of James Baldwin’s novel If Beale Street Could Talk (Dec).Here, a falsely imprisoned young man in Harlem has more worries on his mind: His fiance is pregnant.
BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY, Nov 2 is about the rise of Queen’s Freddie Mercury (Rami Malek). Hoping to get some of the hit WON’T YOU BE MY NEIGHBOR ’s gravy on its taters, producers are giving a wide-screen release for LOVE, GILDA (Sept 21) telling the life story of the fondly remembered SNL comedienne Gilda Radner, her tragic illness and her marriage to Gene Wilder.

usher us into a new Christian millenia. Unfortunately, the devout firefighter doesn’t get the news, Son of Sam-wise, by his Dalmation yapping it out. It’s counter programming for a release two weeks earlier: Sept 21’s Fahrenheit 11/9 by Michael Moore, who made the same Trump prophecy without aid of God or dog. Moore surveys the life and lies of the Angry Orange; the title refers to his election, 11/9/2016. Tom Hardy’s frequent screen appearances behind masks has another offering—VENOM (Oct 5), where he plays the host of a superpowerful alien parasite, with jumbo fangs and lolling tongue, a spin-off from business in Spider-Man comics, which was in turn spun off from The Blob. One looks with more anticipation to SPIDER-MAN: INTO THE SPIDER-VERSE (Dec 14), an animated big-screen release that introduces Miles Morales, the Hispanic kid who is infused with the powers of the amazing Spider-Man. The previewed animation for this is quite dazzling. THE GIRL IN THE SPIDER WEB (Nov 9) is no relation to all this web-slinging business; it’s the newest adventure of ornery vigilante Lisbeth Salander (Claire Foy), proving that Sweden isn’t as peaceful as they tell you. Mitigating factor: Fede Alvarez of Don’t Breathe directs. For more macha action: the life story of eyepatch-wearing war correspondent Maria Colvin (Rosamund Pike) as she goes to Syria to cover A PRIVATE WAR (Nov 2). Genteel romance abounds in THE BOOKSTORE (September), with Emily Mortimer as the proprietor of a British coastal town bookshop in the 1950s. She faces social pressure when she starts selling Nabokov’s scandalous Lolita; Bill Nighy is the old gent who comes to her aid. THE SISTERS BROTHERS (Sep 21) teams Joaquin Phoenix and John C. Reilly as a pair of unlikely vigilantes in Oregon Territory before the Civil War. Good season for Reilly, what with the return of Wreck It Ralph (see below), and his reteaming with Will Ferrell, his partner in one of his best, Step-Brothers. Reilly is the assistant to the world’s greatest detective in HOLMES AND WATSON (Dec 21). Ralph Fiennes is aboard as the Napoleon of Crime, Professor Moriarty. Families can fight over Thanksgiving cinema choices, in addition to the

FANTASTIC BEASTS 2: THE CRIMES OF GRINDELWALD (Nov 16), hopefully as phantasmagorically charming as the first, following the Depression Era years of Harry Potter’s He Who Is Not To Be Named. CREED II (Nov 21) has the further pugilistic adventures of the Philly boxer, with previous Creed director Ryan Coogler making way for Steven Caple, Jr; ROBIN HOOD (Nov 21) features The Kingmen’s Ryan Heger as the disenfranchised noble crusader who returns to Ben Mendelsohn’s Sheriff of Nottingham, with Jamie Foxx as Little John, his Moorish right-hand man. All this plus film festivals. The MILL VALLEY fest (Oct 4-14) is one of California’s oldest and most prestige festivals; it debuted Call Me By Your Name in our area. Guests and films are TBA. Closer to home, there’s the excellent 21ST UNITED NATIONS ASSOCIATION FILM FESTIVAL (Oct 18-28), a series of documentaries about the state of the world, playing at various valley locations. This year’s theme is “Tomorrow?” Considering their past hugely informative offerings about water shortages, fracking and climate change, “Tomorrow?” is a good question.

EGGED ON With waiters trained in upselling and super large (and branded) plates, it’s easy to order too much food at Puesto.
Presto Puesto Newly opened fast casual Mexican joint aims for hashtag fame over substance BY JEFFREY EDALATPOUR
I
F YOU RIDE your bicycle to Puesto in Santa Clara at about noon, you can find a parking spot in no time. If, however, you decide to drive your car, you’ll spend several minutes circling the parking lot. Wait until 2pm, when the crowds scamper back to their offices, and you’ll have the pick of the litter. Parking, though, is just the first hurdle standing between you and a plate of tacos. Don’t go without making a reservation. Otherwise you’ll enter the same purgatory that the Seinfeld characters do as they wait the length of
an entire episode for a table to open up. Puesto is a chain of Southern California Mexican restaurants now serving dollops of guacamole and pitchers of margaritas in the north. The formulaic menu is reminiscent of Wahoo’s Fish Tacos, another fast-casual Mexican food chain that opened in Orange County and then expanded into other markets across the country. At first, Wahoo’s stood apart from its competitors by concentrating the diners’ attention on fish. Instead of choosing to distinguish its cuisine as such, the Adler family group behind Puesto has worked closely with a marketing team and brand consultants to invent a neon-colored mythos. Every white plate is stamped with
the Puesto logo. Each dish is artfully arranged on top so that the name will appear in social media posts. Talk about brand integration! The restaurant’s exterior surfaces—all tan and bland— belie the cavernous restaurant space inside. Loud sounds echo around the interior: from the thumping soundtrack to busy servers and their buzzing patrons. Visually, the menu and the interior design rely on primary colors that photograph well; the dominant color is not princess pink, but a deep-voiced androgynous magenta. The subliminal message is, “Everyone is welcome to drink flights of tequila here.” To get the meal going, there are plenty of snacks, shareable plates and even four guacamole variations. At $11, the unembellished version is a small, flavorless scoop of mashed avocados. Cilantro, onion, fresh squeezed lime and orange and chile habanero are all listed as ingredients, but none of us could detect anything more than the creamy green of the fruit itself. Not even salt or pepper. Guacamole is the fundamental building block of any Mexican restaurant, and serving it underseasoned
is a bad sign. Puesto may be making it as a base product so that, along with price upgrades, customers will try the doctored-up recipes with ahi tuna ($14) or mango and pomegranate ($13). A basket of chicharrónes ($5)— described as “crackling pork magic”— arrives at the table still sizzling from the fryer. Despite being airy, they were spicy and substantial. And by dipping them into the guacamole, the crackling cools down and adds a jazziness to the spice level of the dip. Nopalitos ($5) was the other favorite starter. The plate mimicked the colors of the Mexican flag: green nopales, red cherry tomatoes and white queso fresco. It was the brightest plate we tried with the cleanest, most distinguishable flavors. The waiter, an expert at upselling, suggested the ceviche acapulco ($16) from the restaurant’s seafood selection. Lime-cooked bass circles the plate with discs of cucumber, tomato, onion and avocado. You can adjust the spiciness with a bottle of hot sauce that comes on a side plate with a lime wedge and crispy blue tortilla rounds. Another guest described the carnitas bowl ($17) as pure comfort food. The portion of confit pork comes on a giant-sized platter filled out with herb lime rice, black beans, corn, guacamole and tomatillo fresca. It’s easy to order way too much at Puesto. For $16, guests can choose three of nine kinds of taco. We tried mushroom veg, chicken al pastor and carnitas. Melted cheese overpowered the mushrooms and the chicken, and the taste of the pork didn’t really come through, either. Chewiness was the overall effect of the plate, the feeling of which was exacerbated by gummy blue tortillas. There is a taco of the month, but the waiter didn’t prompt us about it nor was it posted on a nearby sign. The lunch rush inspires a feverishness in the wait staff. You can feel the atmospheric pressure start to drop as the dining room empties out. Puesto is an ideal place to eat with co-workers you want to keep at a reasonable distance. Like the shopping mall it calls home, the restaurant fosters anonymous consumption at a hurried pace.

Before the glittery vampire romances of the aughts and the leathery techno terrors of the ’90s, this bloodsucking biker gang from Santa Carla lent a distinctly ’80s vibe to the genre. Local fans know that Santa Cruz served as the backdrop for the fictional California beach town immortalized by this cult classic’s cast—which includes Kiefer Sutherland, Dianne Wiest and Corey Feldman. This is the penultimate film in Redwood City’s summer series, Movies on the Square. The whole family is invited, but be advised: Lost Boys is rated R, so consider hiring a sitter. (KL)
Founded in San Francisco by Arcelio Garcia and Jorge Santana (brother to Carlos), Malo has been churning out groovy, Latininflected Chicano rock since the early ’70s. They’ve seen many members come and go over the years—Garcia is now the only remaining original member— but they’re still going strong as they near the half-century mark. Their biggest hit in the U.S., 1972’s “Suavecito,” has been called “the Chicano national anthem.” They scored several more hits in Central and South America, including “Chevere,” “Nena,” “Pana,” “Cafe” and “Oye Mama.” (NV)
Karen Zacarias’ Native Gardens is the story of Pablo and Tania, a young couple who are are expecting their first child when they move into a highly regarded neighborhood in Washington D.C. When the couple move to replace their aging fence—which their neighbors, Frank and Virginia are happy to see go—it is discovered that Pablo and Tania’s property line extends into Frank’s prizewinning (and very thirsty) garden. Tensions mount and racial, cultural and generational lines are thrown into sharp relief as Pablo and Tania forge ahead with their plans for a native garden. (KL)
THE FACE ON THE BARROOM FLOOR
LAST DAY OF SUMMER
Fri, 7:30pm, $40 3Below Theatres & Lounge, San Jose
Fri, 7pm, $39+ SAP Center, San Jose
This year marks the 40th anniversary of longtime San Jose denizen Henry Mollicone’s opera. Based upon a famous poem about a Manhattan urban legend from the 19th century, it’s the story of two love triangles, separated by 100 years and revolving around a cryptic painting on a barroom floor. The entire tale is told in about half an hour—with just three instruments, three singers and a simple barroom set. After the opera, the theater will play clips from “The Face on the Barroom Floor: The Poem, the Place, the Opera” by Lawrence Kraman. (DI)
This show features hip-hop heavyweights and rising talent. Topping the bill is Yo Gotti, whose vivid storytelling powers have been deployed in service of his native Memphis as well as in lively club bangers, like “Rake it Up” and “1942.” For Tekashi 6ix-9ine the headlines eclipse any drama in his flows. With a salacious rap sheet—and as the victim of a recent kidnapping and robbery—the Bushwick emcee behind viral hit “Gummo” is lucky to even be on tour. Then there’s NBA YoungBoy and Moneybagg Yo, who carve their own sound out of trap hi-hats and blunted bass. (AL)

The Angels of Death are bidding fans goodbye after 37 years of brutality. For some purists the thrash giants haven’t been the same since co-founder Jeff Hanneman’s untimely death, but you’d be hard-pressed to find a substitute with more shred cred than Gary Holt of Bay Area legend Exodus, who appears on the band’s latest release, Repentless, and who has amazing synergy with co-guitarist Kerry King when the two swap blistering leads. That album and its predecessor, World Painted Blood, capture Slayer’s punk-inspired mid-1980s rawness more than the overly ProTool’d mid-period stuff. Let’s hope all this “final tour” talk is a bluff because metal needs Slayer more than ever. (AL)
Chiptune and 8-bit bands are nothing new. The sonic textures of early Nintendo and Sega Genesis games have inspired countless millennial musicians to approach the genre in numerous ways, cobbling together songs with crunchy lo-fi tones or reimagining classic video game soundtracks.

AdviceAmy@AOL.com
My friend was dying to tell her new boyfriend she loves him but waited till he said it first. She, in fact, makes that a rule. Now I have a new boyfriend. Should I just shamelessly own my feelings—that is, tell him I love him? Or should I follow my friend’s lead?—Hating Waiting We have this notion that it’s really romantic for a couple to say “I love you” pronto: "The moment he/she sat down at the bus stop next to me, I just knew!” In reality, “love at first sight” tends to come with some issues, such as the failure to weed out any insta-beloveds who kiss like big-lipped fish. Your desire to go all blurtypants on the guy likewise seems romantic—until you consider the psychological mechanics behind it. Chances are, you’re in a state of psychological tension — all fired up with suspense at how the guy will respond— and only by telling him will you finally get relief. (It’s basically the emotional version of really, really needing to pee.) Research on sex differences in “parental investment” by evolutionary biologist Robert Trivers suggests that it’s probably a bad idea for you, as a woman, to go first with the ILY. Trivers explains that in species like ours, in which females get stuck with the burden of parental care (should sex lead to the creation of toddlers), they evolved to vet males for ability and willingness to invest—more than that initial teaspoonful of sperm,
that is. Men coevolved to expect to have to prove themselves to women to get sex. In short, men chase; women choose. Sure, there are couples out there in which the woman chased and things ended up just fine. But those evolved differences in male and female psychology are still driving us. In other words, you’re taking a risk by tossing out the ILY first—possibly causing the guy to want you less than if you let him take the lead in ILY blurtations. And hi, feminists! I can hear the flicking of your lighters as you ready your pitchforks and hay. But the way I see it, what should be feminist is acknowledging what seems to be the optimal approach for women per research on human psychology. Despite the risks, you may decide to be that rebel gazelle that chases the lion. If so, why not go all the way? Pull out your man’s chair for him in restaurants. Put your jacket over his shoulders on a cold night. And be the one who goes downstairs with the baseball bat when there’s a weird noise at 3 a.m. As he cowers in bed, reassure him, “Baby, you just stay there in your nightie...I got this.”
My fiancee dumped me three months ago. I was devastated, but I’ve come to realize that we shouldn’t be together. Now she keeps pressing for us to meet, saying there’s stuff she needs to “process.” I was finally starting to get over her, but should I just go?—Torn Getting together with your ex-fiancee after you’ve finally started to move on is like being just out of rehab and reconnecting with a friend: “What could be the harm? A nice pastrami on rye with my old heroin dealer!” Your brain, like an air-conditioned Miami mansion, is “expensive” to run, so it tries to go on autopilot (basically nonthink mode) whenever possible. When you repeatedly take a certain action—like turning to a certain person for love, attention, and comforting—that action becomes more and more automatic. On a neural level, this plays out with a bunch of individual neurons that “wire together,” as neuroscientist Carla Shatz puts it. This happens after individual neurons each fire off a chemical messenger—a neurotransmitter—that another neuron
catches and absorbs. The more a person repeats the same action—and the more a group of neurons does the same fire-offand-catch sequence—the faster they get at it. Eventually, these neurons become what I call a “thinkpack,” conserving mental energy through bypassing the conscious thought department and robotically defaulting to whatever action worked for the person in the past. Right now, the last thing you need is to stall your recovery process—the weakening over time of those entrenched neural pathways—by getting the neuron band back together. If you feel bad about saying no to seeing her, consider how she’s prioritizing her need to “process” over your continued recovery. (“It’s not you; it’s me—and how my crappy new insurance no longer covers therapy.”)

REVIEW
LOS ALTOS STAGE COMPANY
by Matthew Lopez directed by Linda Piccone
ALL THAT GLITTERS ‘Crazy Rich Asians’ is… OK…
Singapore Fling
A
NY DAY YOU can disguise outright plutocrat-porn as social justice is a good day. Mountain View-raised director Jon M. Chu’s box-office hit Crazy Rich Asians is an all-Asian version of a romance done so many times that the audience could dub in the dialogue if the soundtrack malfunctioned.
Raised poor by a widowed mom, the NYU economy professor Rachel (Constance Wu) has a boyfriend Nick (Henry Golding); Nick wants to take it up a notch by bringing Rachel to Singapore for the wedding of his school-friend Colin. Nick neglects to mention that his family is filthy rich—and that his domineering mother Eleanor (Michelle Yeoh) will put this foreign girl through the wringer. Plates of cupcakes and sculpted male torsos fight for the camera’s attention. There’ll be an uptick in plane tickets to Singapore with all of the travelogue footage here. Photographer Vanja Černju makes the city look unmissable, from the cloudscapes to toothsome street food. Naturally, no references to the canings and capital punishment, or statutorily illegal homosexuality, even though there are two gay characters, modeled nicely on the David Wayne and Eve Arden types in ’50s rom coms. Crazy Rich Asians has its gay side, not a bad thing—Colin Crazy Rich Asians (Chris Pang) saying that he sort of wants to marry Nick raises one’s eyebrow, particularly since Nick is interesting but PG-13, 120 Mins. not chemical in the kissing scenes with Rachel. Golding is Valleywide very handsome, and I expect he’s great at Shakespeare, but the precise English accent may inevitably lead to villain roles. Yeoh’s cold formality has feeling to it, and she’s a credit to the old Hollywood movie models for her character—she acts more like Joan Crawford than Joan Crawford did. The characters get flatter the farther away they are from the center of the film, but two are standouts. The petite, raspyvoiced New York rapper Awkwafina runs away with this movie as Goh Peik, a school friend who provides Rachel with good advice and a borrowed dress. The affluent Goh family family provides the promised crazy part of this comedy, with Mar-ya-Lago-worthy gilded tackiness, Elvis coiffures and Versace worn at breakfast. (Happily, the great Ken Jeong plays the father.) Another asset: the purple clad and effete Ollie (Nico Santos of Superstore), who is a poor relation—“the rainbow sheep of the family.” He’s allowed around the wealthy Youngs because of his shrewd taste. Ollie’s guarded judgement of a dress as “it’s...not...that...bad” sort of sums this movie up. —Richard von Busack

LOL In the decade since the release of ‘The Dark Knight,’ critics and academics still can’t agree on what it all means.
So Serious On 10th anniversary, ‘The Dark Knight’ returns to theaters, hits Netflix BY RICHARD VON BUSACK
T
EN YEARS OF superheroism and the world hasn’t got any better. The Dark Knight (2008), the smartest and most intense of these power-operas, is on Netflix and returning for a 10th anniversary screening in IMAX. The ultra wide and dense format gives it the most power to the vertiginous aerial scenes. It’s a movie that seems composed of two-thirds helicopter shots and views from the 200th floor. The Dark Knight always ought to be
played on the biggest screen possible— and played loud, like a Led Zepplin song. We’ve had scads of vigilantes since it emerged, but Christopher Nolan’s took the most uneasy look at the fantasies of masked and costumed power trips, making them seem real through liveaction instead of digital effects. On one level, The Dark Knight is a lament over what America did after Sept. 11, a fable of enemy action met by ruinous overreaction. Batman’s mad methods work, but they’re always questioned, as they wouldn’t be in a straight-forward fascist film. Everyone from academics to online critics challenged the politics of Batman when this movie came out.
Rewatching it, it seems the critique is already embedded in this adventure. Take the exchange between Gotham District Attorney Harvey Dent (Aaron Eckhart) and his assistant, Rachel (Maggie Gyllenhaal), about the too-cozy relationship between the vigilante and the city’s police. Dent says that during states of emergency, the Roman Republic had a specific officer to take charge of the city for a year. Rachel points out that the last one was named Caesar. Significantly, neither utters the Latin word for that office, because that would end the wordplay on the spot. That word is “dictator.” More than once, this movie about symbols cautions that a masked vigilante is the wrong kind of hero for a city, right up to an ending that contrasts a child’s view of the story (“He didn’t do anything wrong!” cries a little boy) and the adult Commissioner Gordon, who knows that no good comes from bending the rules. And the Joker isn’t wrong when he sizes Batman up as a creature beyond the extreme, just like himself. Note Joker’s shrewdness when he lures lawmen into the degrading—
and useless—practice of “enhanced interrogation.” It doesn’t work, even though the beating in question takes place during a conservative pundit’s favorite hypothetical, when there’s a ticking time bomb going off. The Joker has the last word: “I just wanted to see what you’d do. You didn’t disappoint.” The clown’s real scorn is for those who hide their impulses, who don’t feel like always keeping in the present tense. When he makes his money, he elevates himself to a visionary ready to conduct a version of “The Prisoner’s Dilemma” with a pair of bombs, a pair of crowded ferryboats and a pair of triggers. It’s a keen metaphor for nuclear brinkmanship, a system designed by best and the brightest. As Joker says, “Nobody panics when things go according to plan. Even when the plans are horrifying.” A decade later, Heath Ledger is still shocking in this horror-clown role. The smeared makeup based on Francis Bacon’s paintings doesn’t disguise that the grin he wears might have been cut into his cheeks; he’s still licking his wounds as he tells his lies about how he got his scars. We never know who he is. His rudderless evil is summed up in Alfred’s anecdote about the Englishman’s commando days. The moral of the story: “Some men just want to watch the world burn.” Sensational dialogue, and Kipling-worthy, but it’s also an old colonial talking. Even Bin-Laden didn’t want to see the whole world burn, just the Western side of it. Nolan’s insistence on making it real wasn’t followed by the dozens of superhero films, with the phantasmagorica of digital animation, the Dali-scapes of Dr. Strange or the mass destruction in the Avengers films. The movie’s serious doubts about the use of extra-legal force are more than just liberal-hand wringing. It’s every moviegoer’s fantasy to see a sword unsheathed and taken to a Gordian knot. The quality in The Dark Knight is its insistence that a stroke of violence is absolutely the wrong way to solve an intractable puzzle.

AUG 24–26 • TOYXPO’S SANTA CLARA COMIC CON 2018 I love Santa Clara. It’s like San Jose’s little sibling—it took us decades to appreciate each other. Personally, I appreciate that this year’s ToyXpo Toy and Comic Fan Experience has a ton of neat guests, from artists who designed my favorite Garbage Pail Kids and comic books to stars from WWE, Stranger Things, Buck Rogers, Power Rangers and CHiPs. I’d give anything to meet Erik Estrada and Larry Wilcox! (“Anything” is about $65.) You can get a pic with a life-size Stranger Things demagorgon! Nightmares, reasonably priced! Santa Clara Convention Center, 5001 Great America Parkway, Santa Clara
FRI AUG 24 • LIFE SIZE MODELS LIVE RECORDING @ ART BOUTIKI These guys are a pretty rockin’ local outfit. Their 2017 release Homemade is a rousing blend of New York City indie rock and a bit of Iggy Pop. LSM are recording this show for an upcoming live album, and they’re doing it in a venue that—rightfully—prides itself on its spectacular sound thanks to the Vado family’s love of music. With support from Jake Wichman (Sunnyvale) and Unlikely Heroes (Oakland), this adds up to a fantastic show. 7pm. 44 Race St, San Jose
MON AUG 27 • LMNOP RECRUITING JAM @ LILLY MAC’S I made a deal with the City of Sunnyvale that I would tell the rest of the South Bae to visit them once in a while. I’m not allowed to say what I got in the deal, but let’s just say it’s it might be a piece land formerly called Santa Clara… Comedy, folks! Lilly Mac’s Nefarious Onstage Performers are looking to grow their family of funny improvisational friends. Have you ever wondered if you have the chops to be funny on the fly? I wonder all the time!

Who Is The Walrus? PROVING ONCE AGAIN that there is no pop-culture wormhole more eternally alluring than the Beatles, a Canadian mathematician has employed data to unlock the mystery of the Lennon-McCartney songwriting partnership. Earlier this month, math professor Jason Brown of Dalhousie University in Nova Scotia revealed the results of his 10-year statistical study which asserts that John Lennon was the sole author of the ballad “In My Life,” contradicting the professed memories of both Lennon and Paul McCartney. Early on in their partnership, Lennon and McCartney had decided to credit every song they wrote together or individually to “Lennon-McCartney,” which created a who-really-wrote-what mystique that Beatles-ologists have been chewing on for decades. At the end of the Beatles’ reign, the co-writing credit became increasingly absurd, for example, giving Paul a co-credit for the nasty little piece of Lennon paranoia The Ballad of John and Yoko, and John a piece of the sentimental ditty When I’m Sixty-Four, which he once sneeringly called “granny music shit.” The Lennon-McCartney credit has been especially fascinating because it put these two particular songwriters in the same bag. By the time of the Beatles break-up, Lennon and McCartney could not have been farther apart in their approach to songwriting, and they proved it once freed from the artificial partnership. In the years just after the Beatles’ demise, Lennon’s songs tended toward searing, nakedly vulnerable agony dramas
that sounded like they were written for an audience of one (Yoko). McCartney’s material, by contrast, was broad, cinematic, crowd-pleasing and defiantly schmaltzy. Mick Jagger and Keith Richards took a similar co-writing approach with the Rolling Stones, but nobody cares to parse Mick songs from Keith’s. Jason Brown first jumped in the Beatles data business 10 years ago when he applied soundwave analysis to figure out another abiding Beatles mystery: What the hell was that opening chord on A Hard Day’s Night? This time, to unlock authorship of In My Life, Brown—working with Harvard co-authors Mark Glickman and Ryan Song—used an approach he calls “bag of words,” similar to word-cloud infographics that he applied to both lyrical and musical content of the song. But, we have to ask, to what end? Artistic collaboration never goes out of style precisely because it contains a kind of magic we can never quite quantify. In his terrific book on collaboration The Power of Two, Joshua Wolf Shenk makes a convincing argument that Lennon and McCartney were often engaged in a kind of songwriting competition while with the Beatles that drove them both to their best. Maybe Paul didn’t contribute a single lyric or melody to In My Life. But maybe he goaded John into reaching just a bit deeper into self-expression. And maybe John repaid the favor. And maybe in another 10 years, Jason Brown will find the algorithm to explain professional jealousy. —Wallace Baine

FREE WILL ASTROLOGY I have for you may initially seem contradictory, but they are in fact complementary. Together they'll help guide you through the next three weeks. The first comes from herbalist and wise woman Susun Weed. She suggests that when you face a dilemma, you should ask yourself how you can make it your ally and how you can learn the lesson it has for you. Your second burst of wisdom is from writer Yasmin Mogahed: "Study the hurtful patterns of your life. Then don't repeat them."
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Speak the following declaration aloud and see how it feels: "I want strong soft kisses and tender unruly kisses and secret truth kisses and surprise elixir kisses. I deserve them, too." If that puts you in a brave mood, Taurus, add a further affirmation: "I want ingenious affectionate amazements and deep dark appreciation and brisk mirthful lessons and crazy sweet cuddle wrestles. I deserve them, too." What do you think? Do these formulas work for you? Do they put you in the proper frame of mind to co-create transformative intimacy? I hope so. You're entering a phase when you have maximum power to enchant and to be enchanted. GEMINI (May 21-June 20): As you map out your master plan for the next 14 months, I invite you to include the following considerations: an intention to purge pretend feelings and artificial motivations; a promise to change your relationship with old secrets so that they no longer impinge on your room to maneuver; a pledge to explore evocative mysteries that will enhance your courage; a vow to be kinder toward aspects of yourself that you haven't loved well enough; and a search for an additional source of stability that will inspire you to seek more freedom. CANCER (June 21-July 22): If you have been
communing with my horoscopes for a while, you've gotten a decent education—for free! Nonetheless, you shouldn't depend on me for all of your learning needs. Due to my tendency to emphasize the best in you and focus on healing your wounds, I may neglect some aspects of your training. With that as caveat, I'll offer a few meditations about future possibilities. 1. What new subjects or skills do you want to master in the next three years? 2. What's the single most important thing you can do to augment your intelligence? 3. Are there dogmas you believe in so fixedly and rely on so heavily that they obstruct the arrival of fresh ideas? If so, are you willing to at least temporarily set them aside?
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): "All the world's a stage,"
wrote Shakespeare, "And all the men and women merely players." In other words, we're all performers. Whenever we emerge from solitude and encounter other people, we choose to express certain aspects of our inner experience even as we hide others. Our personalities are facades that display a colorful mix of authenticity and fantasy. Many wise people over the centuries have deprecated this central aspect of human behavior as superficial and dishonest. But author Neil Gaiman thinks otherwise: "We are all wearing masks," he says. "That is what makes us interesting." Invoking his view—and in accordance with current astrological omens—I urge you to celebrate your masks and disguises in the coming weeks. Enjoy the show you present. Dare to entertain your audiences.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): I think you've done
enough rehearsals. At this point, the apparent quest for a little extra readiness is beginning to lapse into procrastination. So I'll suggest that you set a date for opening night. I'll nudge you to have a cordial talk with yourself about the value of emphasizing soulfulness over perfectionism. What? You say you're waiting until your heart stops fluttering and your bones stop chattering? I've got good news: The greater your stage fright, the more moving your performance will be.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): In all the time we've worked on diminishing your suffering, we may have not focused enough on the fine art of resolving unfinished business. So let's do that now, just in time for the arrival of your Season of Completion. Are you ready to start drawing the old cycle to a close so you'll be fresh when the new cycle begins? Are you in the mood to conclude this chapter of your life story and earn

ARIES (March 21-April 19): The two pieces of advice
11 57
By ROB BREZSNY week of August 22
the relaxing hiatus you will need before launching the next chapter? Even if you don't feel ready, even if you're not in the mood, I suggest you do the work anyway. Any business you leave unfinished now will only return to haunt you later. So don't leave any business unfinished!
SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): Are you ready to mix
more business with pleasure and more pleasure with business than you have ever mixed? I predict that in the coming weeks, your social opportunities will serve your professional ambitions and your professional ambitions will serve your social opportunities. You will have more than your usual amount of power to forge new alliances and expand your web of connections. Here's my advice: Be extra charming, but not grossly opportunistic. Sell yourself, but with grace and integrity, not with obsequiousness. Express yourself like a gorgeous force of nature, and encourage others to express themselves like gorgeous forces of nature.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): "When I picture
a perfect reader," wrote philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche, "I picture a monster of courage and curiosity, also something supple, cunning, cautious, a born adventurer and discoverer." I suspect he was using the term "monster" with a roguish affection. I am certainly doing that as I direct these same words toward you, dear Sagittarian reader. Of course, I am always appreciative of your courage, curiosity, cunning, suppleness and adventurousness. But I'm especially excited about those qualities now, because the coming weeks will be a time when they will be both most necessary and most available to you.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): You do not yet have
access to maps of the places where you need to go next. That fact may tempt you to turn around and head back to familiar territory. But I hope you'll press forward even without the maps. Out there in the frontier, adventures await you that will prepare you well for the rest of your long life. And being without maps, at least in the early going, may actually enhance your learning opportunities. Here's another thing you should know: Your intuitive navigational sense will keep improving the farther you get from recognizable landmarks.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): Healing isn't
impossible. You may not be stuck with your pain forever. The crookedness in your soul and the twist in your heart may not always define who you are. There may come a time when you'll no longer be plagued by obsessive thoughts that keep returning you to the tormenting memories. But if you hope to find the kind of liberation I'm describing here, I advise you to start with these two guidelines: 1. The healing may not happen the way you think it should or imagine it will. 2. The best way to sprout the seeds that will ultimately bloom with the cures is to tell the complete truth.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Nineteenth-century British painter J. M. W. Turner was one of the greats. Renowned for his luminous landscapes, he specialized in depicting the power of nature and the atmospheric drama of light and color. Modern poet Mary Ruefle tells us that although he "painted his own sea monsters," he engaged assistants "to do small animals." She writes that "he could do a great sky, but not rabbits." I'm hoping that unlike Turner, you Piscean folks will go both ways in the coming weeks. Give as much of your creative potency and loving intelligence to the modest details as to the sweeping vistas.

WARNING. California law provides that, for purposes of division of property upon dissolution of a marriage or domestic partnership or upon legal separation, property acquired by the parties during the marriage or domestic partnership in joint form is presumed to be community property. If either party to this action should die before the jointly held community property is divided, the language in the deed that characterizes how title is held (i.e. joint tenancy, tenants in common, or community property) will be controlling, and not the community property presumption. You should consult your attorney if you want the community property presumption to be written into the recorded title to the property.STANDARD FAMILY LAW RESTRAINING ORDERS. Starting immediately, you and your spouse or domestic partner are restrained from 1. Removing the minor child or children of the parties, if any, from the state without the prior written consent of the other party or an order of the court; 2.

ITH MANY PARTS of the state reaching 100-andfuck degrees this summer, chilling out next to the AC with some ice-cold suds is a no-brainer. Several companies have come to the rescue this summer with THC, CBD and terpene-infused beverages so that overheated marijuana enthusiasts can have their weed and drink it, too. Cannabis bevvies originally took the form of sugary sodas until more healthconscious products started popping up in dispensaries over the past few years. The latest wave of reefer refreshments includes San Diego-based Cannibiniers, which this summer launched Two Roots Brewing Co., “the world's first line of CannaCrafted non-alcoholic THC and CBD infused craft beer.” The lineup features a lager, stout, IPA, sonder and wheat ale, all of which the company states “emulates the rapid onset of alcohol” but without the hangover and humiliation of that one vomit-involved Lyft ride home from Cinnabar that your friends promised to never mention again. Molson Coors Brewing is developing a similar product with Canadian weed producer The Hydropothecary Corp. north of the border, and local brewer Lagunitas sells Hi-Fi Hops, an IPA-inspired “hoppy sparkling water” beverage, at Airfield Supply Company and both Harborside locations. Only Province Brands is actually brewing with bud, though; most cannabis beers just have THC or CBD oils added to them, but Province uses all parts of the plant to create a unique product with 6.5mg THC in each bottle. Two Rivers also sells infused cold-brew iced coffees from their Just Society label for those who love a little cuppa canna in the morning. Their blood orange, chamomile and peppermint teas will also have you throwing a Mad Hatter-style tea party in no time. Herbal tea blends from women-owned Bay Area company Kikoko have made headlines lately for their effects on alleviating anxiety and giving people a boost of desire in the bedroom. All of the beautifully packaged products are available for your next high teatime at Caliva, Airfield and Buddy’s Cannabis. “Microdosing is becoming a big thing,” Buddy’s Cannabis owner Matt Lucero said. “Kikoko is one of our best-selling new items.” Marijuana isn’t poised to take over happy hour just yet. Edibles are still less than 10 percent of Buddy’s store sales, with drinks comprising just 1 percent of that demographic. But even the alcohol industry doesn’t seem threatened by legalization.—Julia Baum
