Touch the Heart “An eye for an eye leaves the whole world blind” is one of my favorite quotes. It suggests the dangerous folly of using violent means to counter violence. Attributed to Mohandas Gandhi, a nonviolent warrior, it cautions that raging fires aren’t quelled with more fire. Yet historically, most noble warriors have

THIS MODERN WORLD

By Tom Tomorrow

argued that the best way to protect the vulnerable and marginalized is to outmaneuver with even more deadly, even more violent means than those whose aim is to strong-arm and destroy the “innocent.” The increase in violent threats and hate crimes in the United States since Trump’s election is spawning more outcry that retaliatory—or even preemptive—violent options are needed to prevent fascism from taking further hold. Enter the “hard left”—the Antifa—an anti-facist movement pitted conscientiously against the alt-right, neo-Nazis, the KKK and nationalist thugs set on terrorizing or annihilating those they blame for perceived threats to their once dominant status and white, male privilege: people of color, LGBTQ, women, immigrants, Jews, “elitist” intellectuals, artists, journalists, etc. For any person of conscience, it’s important to ask whether violence against violent people is ever the only or best way. While I appreciate the courage it takes to stand up to people who “hate” me, I believe, like Anne Frank, that people are good at heart if you can touch the heart. Opening the heart to find understanding and compassion can take real courage. I argue that provoking more outrage or violence is never a best strategy, even when used for the moral purpose of protecting human and civil rights. We cannot become what we detest in others without adding to the problem.

Rants

BY NORMAN ASTRIN

Up to now, there’s been enough room to go elsewhere.

Another land, another country, across the great divide. There was nothing too big or dangerous to keep us from settling. Now the world is full of us.

What we seek is taken. Over the rise are others like us. What we need is theirs. What we ask for is that it be shared. The world, since all life began, has evolved to provide sustenance for all beings. Such as life begets life, and as life eats life, this is how the world has revolved. We have been given abilities to bond, speak, laugh and forgive. What life has given us, we have not given back. There is more of us and less of life. When we are left with want, no song will save us.

Join Us As We Celebrate

30 Years of Ending Hunger

For this small space of time we have the power to sustain us all by sustaining all life. This will require much wisdom which we lack. Life will go on with or without us. Our children who survive will speak of an age when we were great. They will worship a God who demands that they give back what we had received. Norman Astrin lives in Cotati.

CLICK BAIT A proposed bill from Sen. Bill Dodd aims to make young people more conscientious news consumers who can better spot the different between fact and fiction.

Fake Out

Bill Dodd pushes media literacy for next gen students—and teachers BY CHRIS ROONEY

ust because your kid— or grandkid—knows more about technology than you’ll ever grasp, doesn’t mean that these youngsters are all that savvy when it comes to professional manipulators. And having super-fast thumbs for texting doesn’t necessarily translate into super-smarts.

Technology continues to have a growing impact on the media landscape. Yet it’s still very much like the Wild West: uncontrolled and easily abused by today’s version of the slick gunslinger, the disseminator of fake news. “The amount of fake news going around on social media during the presidential campaign forced a lot of people to take notice of the problem,” says State Sen. Bill Dodd, D-Napa.

“Stanford University came out with an academic study that found a staggering percentage of students from middle school through college couldn’t identify legitimate reporting from advertisements or content from interest groups. Seeing concrete academic research on the scope of the problem really underscored the need to act.” Dodd’s form of action is SB 135, legislation meant to create and

make available a media literacy curriculum for grades K–12. The bill, which already passed the Senate, “aims to combat fake news and ensure students have the tools to succeed in the digital age,” Dodd said. The bill “will also advance media-literacy training opportunities for teachers in California.” That means the educators will also be educated. “In the history of the world, media and information has never been more readily available than it is today,” Dodd says. “However, the amount of fake news and misinformation has also been climbing. Debating policy goals or the best ways to achieve them is a bedrock of our democracy, but those discussions need to be grounded in reality.” Dodd says educators support the bill. “Much web literacy we’ve seen either gets students to look at web pages and think about them, or teaches them to publish and produce things on the web,” says Nathan Libecap, teacherlibrarian at Casa Grande High School in Petaluma. “While both these activities are useful, neither addresses real problems students confront evaluating the information that streams to them daily. They need concrete strategies and tactics for tracing claims to sources and for analyzing the nature and reliability of those sources.” Libecap said the bill addresses key issues in media education. “The cost is minimal when we think about helping students— our future voters, consumers, civic and business leaders—learn skills that they can use to not only avoid online scams,” he says, “but to determine the legitimacy and accuracy of the information that they will use when making life choices, whether they are related to their health, economics or politics. We are doing our students a disservice if they graduate from high school and don't know, understand or have skills to address things like astroturfing, chatbots, ) 10

Doctor’s Confession to Petaluma

Twenty-nine years ago something happened to me that changed my life forever. Let me tell you my story.

I was studying pre-Med in college, in hopes of becoming a medical doctor. Things were looking up, and life was good, until things took a turn for the worse. I began to have terrible back and stomach problems. For a young guy, I felt pretty rotten. My back hurt so badly that I had a hard time even concentrating in class. I was miserable. The medical doctors tried different drugs, but they only made me feel like I was in a “cloud.” I was just not getting better.

A friend of mine convinced me to give a chiropractor a try. The adjustment didn’t hurt, it actually felt good. I got relief, and I soon was off all medication. It worked so well that I decided, then and there, to become a chiropractor myself. Now for my kids, Hayden and Henry. They have been under chiropractic care their entire lives. And, unlike most other kids in their class, they never get the “common” childhood illnesses like ear infections, asthma and allergies. In fact, they have never taken a drug in their lives. And they are now 19 and 21!

It’s strange how life is, because now people come to see me with their back problems and stomach problems. They come to me with their headaches, migraines, chronic pain, neck pain, shoulder/arm pain, whiplash from car accidents, asthma, allergies, numbness in limbs, athletic injuries, just to name a few. If drugs make people well, then those who take the most should be the healthiest, but that simply isn’t the case. With chiropractic we don’t add anything to the body or take

Dr. Taajes with his sons anything from it. We find interference in the nervous system and remove it thus enhancing the healing capacities of the body. We get tremendous results…it really is as simple as that. Here’s what some of my patients had to say:

“I have had a problem with migraines as well as low back pain. Even after seeing doctors and other health professionals, the pains remained. After coming to Dr. Joel, they have helped tremendously. They even take away my migraines. They’re great!” (Judy E.) “I came in pending laser surgery for two herniated discs. Over a few months here the need for surgery subsided, and the pain has subsided to a mild discomfort with occasional morning stiffness. Over all, I feel better visit after visit. It’s a gradual process.” (Jaime O.) Several times a day patients thank me for helping them with their health problems. But I can’t really take the credit. Find out for yourself and benefit from an AMAZING OFFER. Look, it shouldn’t cost you an arm and a leg to correct your health. You are going to write a check to someone for your health care expenses, you may as well write one for a lesser amount for chiropractic. When you bring in this article between September 6, 2017 through

October 4, 2017, you will receive my entire new patient exam for $27. That’s with x-rays, exam, report of findings…the whole ball of wax. This exam could cost you $ 350 elsewhere. Great care at a great fee…

Please, I hope that there’s no misunderstanding about quality of care just because I have a lower exam fee. You’ll get great care at a great fee. My qualifications… I’m a graduate of Northwestern College of Chiropractic who regularly goes to monthly educational chiropractic seminars. I’ve been entrusted to take care of tiny babies to neighbors that you may know. I just have that low exam fee to help more people who need care.

My staff and my associate Dr. Rogers and I are ready to see if we can help you. Our office is both friendly and warm and we try our best to make you feel at home. We have a wonderful service, at an exceptional fee. Our office is called REDWOOD CHIROPRACTIC. Our office is located at 937 Lakeville Street, Petaluma, phone number is 707-763-8910. We would love to help you. Call Alex, Phoebe, Christine or Brenda today for an appointment. We can help you. Thank you.

‘The amount of fake news going around on social media during the presidential campaign forced a lot of people to take notice.’ Libecap adds, “Digital and media literacy—and more specifically web literacy—is something that is not just essential, but something that students already show a knack for through their use of social media. Students want to be informed and want to understand the world around them and, like everyone else, they don't want to appear naive or ignorant, especially around their peers. Currently, web literacy follows outdated best practices. SB 135 would be the catalyst to update web literacy practices in California.” The bill awaits final approval from the Assembly Education Committee this summer and the governor’s signature.

Dining BEER HERE In addition to great brews, Tiburon’s fourth annual beer fest boasts great views, too.

Brew by the Bay Tiburon’s Tap Beer Fest began as an idea over coffee BY FLORA TSAPOVSKY

he Tiburon Taps Beer Festival on Sept. 23 has a feature that many others might envy: breathtaking vistas of San Francisco, the Golden Gate Bridge and the bay. Just like craft beer, the views never get old.

Thrown every fall by the Ranch, through the TiburonBelvedere Joint Recreation Committee, the festival is a oneday extravaganza that welcomes numerous breweries, cideries and even coffee roasters from the Bay Area and beyond. And this year, “beyond” really means beyond, with representation from Scotland, courtesy of

Auchentoshan, a single malt whisky brand. “The festival began when I ran into my old friend and co-worker Cathleen Andreucci, the director of the Ranch, at a Starbucks,” says Jessica Hotchkiss, the youth recreation supervisor of the Ranch and the festival’s chair. The Ranch offers fitness, language, technology and art

classes for adults, sports activities and classes for youth and a variety of specialty summer camps. “[Andreucci] said she wanted to throw a beer festival, and would I be interested in doing that. I said yes, and the rest is history!” Going into its fourth year, Tiburon Taps brings together more than 30 vendors, including Magnolia Brewing Company in San Francisco, Lost Coast Brewery in Eureka and Adobe Creek Brewing in Novato. All will be offering samples alongside complimentary food stalls and entertainment. For a venture that started as a conversation at a Starbucks, the festival has definitely outgrown its humble beginning. Last year, the festival sold out, with more than 1,300 attendees. Hotchkiss is responsible for “begging every brewery in Northern California to attend our event,” and with the abundance of beer events in the area to keep makers busy, the mission isn’t as easy as it may seem. “It takes me around six months to fill our brewery and beverage roster,” she says. This year, her efforts brought on some interesting participants. “We are very excited to introduce new local Marin County brewers, Indian Valley Brewing, Rugged Coast Brewing and Adobe Creek Brewing,” Hotchkiss says. “Another big addition is Ballast Point Brewing & Spirits, out of San Diego. I truly appreciate all of the brewers that attend our event, as they are donating their time and beverages.” The vendors are not the only ones donating—the festival is largely run by volunteers, and ticket sales help raise funds for scholaships at the Ranch. The festivities, all part of the $45 ticket price ($20 for designated drivers), include music from cover band Neon Velvet, food, lawn games and the Best Brew contest. Front and center are the stunning views. “I’d have to say our location is the best in the bay,” Hotchkiss says.” Tiburon Taps Beer Festival, Sept. 23, 1–4pm.

he vocabulary of winetasting is unduly maligned.

But statements like that are easy to make—you can call the language that’s used at winetasting rooms and in printed tasting notes snobbish and obscurantist all you like, but that gets boring in good time, too. More fun and interesting is the question: how much more might you enjoy the wine you’re drinking if you forget about the notion that anyone is saying these are the “right” words to use when talking about wine, and instead free your mind to associate—ramble, if you will—in the real-world experience of aromas and flavors

you can relate to? Just take the descriptors “riparian” and “brambleberry,” for instance. A riparian zone is an area along a creek or river that’s typically thick with vegetation. A brambleberry is a berry, like a raspberry or blackberry, grown on a thorny bush that thrives in riparian zones—see where this is going? As a descriptor for wine, brambleberry covers an experience that’s beyond any single berry—if a wine smells exactly like a marketfresh basket of raspberries, there’s no reason not to say just that. Late summer is the ideal time to get both words in your aroma repertoire. Recently I took a bike ride on the West County Trail in the Green Valley of Russian River Valley appellation on a hot day. A section of the trail is unpaved as it skirts brambly thickets that cloak Atascadero Creek. Perhaps encouraged by extra soil moisture from the rains of last winter, blackberry bushes have offered a reprise crop of big, red, unripe berries, even while the extra heat of this summer turns their neighbors into inedible crisps before they can ripen. But even more are perfectly ripe and sweet; volatizing in the heat, they perfume the air, their aroma mingling with accents of stagnant water, green leaves and silty dust. That’s what I think of when I sample a wine that smells like that: fruity but earthy, not supermarket-fresh and not baked. That being said, the most memorable Zinfandel I tasted lately was not riparian in the slightest: Frank Family Napa Valley Zinfandel ($37) has a frankly grapey liqueur, almost porty aroma—but note that port is not necessarily made from overly ripe grapes, and this wine, while sweetly suggesting baked figs and toasty Mexican chocolate, is neither cloying nor hot. Standout barbecue wine—but for teriyaki marinated steak or veggies, not burgers. For burgers, go with the smoky, blackberry wine–scented Artezin 2015 Old Vine Mendocino Zinfandel ($18), or the green peppercornspiced and brambleberry-andtomatillo-jam-flavored Cline 2015 Ancient Vines Lodi Zinfandel ($14.99)—summer sun in a bottle.

EARTHWORKER After graduate school, Caitlin Hachmyer began farming in Sebastopol out of necessity.

SPOTLIGHT ON SEBASTOPOL

Now she says she can’t imagine giving it up.

Digging Deep

Caitlin Hachmyer pairs farming with activism, teaching BY STETT HOLBROOK

armers work famously long hours, especially right now as the growing season reaches its peak and harvest is in full swing. But Sebastopol farmer Caitlin Hachmyer packs more into a day than most. Hachmyer, a fast-talking 33-yearold, runs Red H Farm, a small farm that sells produce to customers at the Sebastopol farmers market, to

community supported agriculture subscribers and to Sebastopol’s Handline restaurant. She spent a recent Thursday harvesting early to beat the approach last weekend’s withering heat wave. Hachmyer is a lead instructor at Farm School, a training program at Sebastopol’s Permaculture Artisans, where she also farms three-quarters of an acre. She teaches agroecology at Sonoma State University and she’s the host and organizer of a second annual conference on women

in the food movement. This year’s all-day event, held Sept. 30 at Permaculture Artisans, will feature an international roster on the theme “Foundations and the Future: Celebrating Women’s Leadership in the Food Movement.” On top of all that, Hachmyer is an outspoken advocate for small farmers in Sonoma County and, in particular, the need for land reform. Land reform is typically associated with developing countries where wealthy

landowners hold vast swaths of land and peasants eke out an existence on the margins as tenant farmers. But the situation is not so different here, she says, where the high cost of land means most farmers rent instead of own, making them vulnerable when landlords jack up the rent or fail to renew leases. Small-scale farmers in Sonoma County suffer from rural gentrification, a case Hachmyer makes in Land Justice: Re-Imagining Land, Food, and the Commons in the United States, an inspiring new book just published by the Oakland-based nonprofit Food First, where Hachmyer worked as an intern. As a remedy, she calls for making public land available to farmers and developing incubator farms, steps aimed at creating “communitylevel investment” in the food system and the development of commonly held land as a check against the dictates of private property. Hachmyer didn’t start out wanting to farm, but sees her work as a bridge between advocacy and agriculture, which, she says, are too often viewed as two separate worlds. It was studying anthropology and political ecology at UC Berkeley that opened her eyes to the efficacy of sustainable agriculture as a tool of social justice. Rather than limit her understanding of agriculture to books, she worked as an apprentice at a farm in Minnesota while also interning at Food First and the Community Alliance with Family Farmers. “My introduction into agriculture was through a political lens,” she says. When Hachmyer emerged from school ready to apply her academic and grassroots knowhow, the Great Recession was just starting and no jobs were forthcoming. So she turned to farming by necessity. She worked on a biodynamic farm in France before she decided to work an acre of land at her childhood home in southern Sebastopol. “I thought, ‘I have this land, and I might as well give it a shot.’” Hachmyer has strong views and doesn’t sugarcoat them. She chose farming ) 18

because, she says, she wouldn’t have to make “moral compromises.” She does most of the work herself because she can’t afford to pay a living wage for full-time help. In spite of fatigue, a sometimes aching back and concerns for her financial future, Hachmyer is

committed to farming. “I can’t imagine not farming now,” she says. “I don’t even know how to grocery-shop anymore.” More information about the Sept. 30 ‘Foundations and the Future’ conference can be found at foundationsandthefuture. wordpress.com.

They’re Coming to Get You

The word “zombie” is never used in director George A. Romero’s groundbreaking 1968 horror film Night of the Living Dead, yet the movie effectively invented the reanimated horror trope. Night of the Living Dead became a worldwide sensation, and Romero’s sequels, 1978’s Dawn of the Dead and 1985’s Day of the Dead, used the horror genre to offer biting social commentary amid the gore. All three films screen at the upcoming CULT Film Series tribute to the director, who passed away in July at the age of 77.

Arts Ideas MYSTERY BALLS The neatly arranged rocks at Mendocino County’s Bowling Ball beach

are a scientific mystery, says Thomas Cochrane.

Breaking Ground Geologist Thomas Cochrane’s new book inspires respect for the land BY CHARLIE SWANSON

t may not appear so, but the Sonoma Coast is moving, shaking and eroding into the ocean as two massive pieces of the earth’s crust interact along the San Andreas Fault.

Geologist Thomas Cochrane has spent 40 years studying the coastline from his home in Sea Ranch. Now he shares his insights in a new book, Shaping the Sonoma-Mendocino Coast:

Exploring the Coastal Geology of Northern California. Raised in rural New York, Cochrane spent 25 years working as a petroleum geologist in the flatlands of Oklahoma. He says he stumbled into living in the North Bay after he visited friends and fell in love with the redwood trees and the ocean views. “I wasn’t here four hours and I bought a forest lot,” he says. Once he settled in Sea Ranch, he took to studying the local geology in earnest.

“What I noticed early on is there weren’t any detailed geology books on the coast here,” he says. Cochrane gathered his knowledge in the field, spending decades looking at rates of erosion and rock composition of the varied and sometimes unusual geographic patterns of the coast. “I was motivated a couple years ago to sit down and put it all together, and to write a book that was accessible to the public rather than just to scientists,” Cochrane

says. Made up of nine chapters and an appendix that acts as a road log, the new book offers a complete picture of the terrain and explains several of the coasts unusual formations. Viewing the land on a geological time scale, Cochrane explains how the rugged terrain was formed. “Four million years ago, we were under the ocean, and now the area here has risen to 2,500 feet,” Cochrane says. “The land is rising.” His book explores sea caves, sinkholes and coastal river watersheds. But not even Cochrane can explain everything, such as the bizarre Bowling Ball Beach north of Schooner Gulch in Mendocino County, named for the hundreds of smooth, rounded sandstone boulders that sit along the coast in six straight rows in a manner that almost looks intentional. “Someday we’ll figure it all out,” he laughs. After dispensing with the scientific information, Cochrane’s new book lays out an 80-mile road log extending from Bodega Bay north to the unincorporated town of Elk. The reader is encouraged to day-trip to all the geological attractions, using mile markers to direct travelers to the best views. The book also offers insight into the human impact on the coastline. “I think the value of a book like mine is to give people the knowledge of what’s here,” he says. “They can use that knowledge to take ownership of and protect the land.” Thomas Cochrane reads from ‘Shaping the Sonoma-Mendocino Coast’ on Saturday, Sept. 9, at Copperfield’s Books (775 Village Court, Santa Rosa; 4pm; Free; 707.578.8938) and lectures on Sunday, Sept. 10, at Sugarloaf Ridge State Park (2605 Adobe Canyon Road, Kenwood; 6pm; $10; 707.833.5712).

PSYCHOBIODELICA THE GRAPHIC WORK OF

GASLIGHT Inspector John Kildare (Bill Nighy) enlists the help of Lizzie Cree (Olivia Cooke) to solve a series of murders in old London.

London Fog

‘Golem’ tracks a Ripper-like serial killer BY RICHARD VON BUSACK

as Karl Marx actually Jack the Ripper? If director Juan Carlos Medina’s Limehouse Golem doesn’t actually ask that question, it asks a similar one. During a hunt for a murderer in 1880s London, the whiskery Marx is a suspect; one reenactment of the crime has him caped, glowering, talking straight to the camera in a slowed-down devil’s voice, before wielding a straight razor. Loads of right-wingers consider Marx to be history’s worst monster, but no one ever accused him of being a serial killer before. The film is adapted from Peter Ackroyd’s tricky and literate 1994 novel, Dan Leno and the Limehouse Golem. The book told its story from several viewpoints; this version, scripted by Jane Goldman, is more straightforward, with a Holmes and Watson–like team on the case: John Kildare (Bill Nighy), a disliked police inspector, and Flood, a fleshy London copper (Daniel Mays) who has been on the hell-onearth Limehouse beat for some time. The investigation is catalyzed by the testimony of former musichall star Lizzie Cree (Olivia Cooke), who faces the gallows for the accused arsenic murder of her husband, John (Sam Reid). Kildare suspects John of being a serial killer in a ghastly crime wave that included a young prostitute and an old Jewish scholar. Medina’s eerie crimson and absinthe-green color scheme matches the painted backdrops of theater stages. In the context of a film about the stage copying life (and the other way around), it’s fine that the backdrops aren’t perfect illusions. But the mystery’s revelation is unsatisfactory, with withheld evidence and reverse angles we didn’t get clues on first time around. The better actors here redeem the unlikely plot. Nighy’s role, in outline, is Holmes-like. But his Kildare is less competent than Sherlock, so he’s a tragic figure. Maybe he has a taste for this gaslight and madness material. ‘The Limehouse Golem’ is playing widely on video on demand.

EXCELENTE Daniela InnocentBeem (Aldonza) and Daniel Cilli (Don Quixote) both shine in ‘La Mancha.’

High Notes

‘La Mancha’ is everything a musical should be BY DAVID TEMPLETON

he notion that musicals are the opposite of serious drama, happily optimistic fluff designed to allow audiences to escape the world, is obvious nonsense to anyone whose been thoroughly shattered by a truly great musical.

That a musical uses the power of song to dissect the world’s problems makes the effort no less serious than were those issues examined through prose alone. Like a sculptor’s chisel, sometimes a wellcrafted song is the perfect tool to cut right to heart of the matter. In Man of La Mancha, now playing at Petaluma’s Cinnabar Theater, these ideas are examined, in a way, through the story of

Miguel de Cervantes (the excellent baritone Daniel Cilli). Imprisoned by the Spanish Inquisition, the poet and playwright attempts to cut through the hopelessness of his fellow prisoners by telling the story of Alonso Quixano, a Spanish nobleman who has read too many books about knights in shining armor, loses his sanity, names himself Sir Don Quixote and set off to revive the age of Chivalry. As written by Dale Wasserman, Joe Darion and Mitch Leigh in 1964, Man of La Mancha offers no simple answers, and this production—sensitively directed by Elly Lichenstein, with superb musical direction by Mary Chun— is anything but fluff. Cilli is wonderful. His Cervantes carries a wounded humanity and palpable fear, and imbues Quixote with a kind of goofy, amiable, wideeyed earnestness. As Aldonza, the bitter prostitute whom Quixote names Dulcinea—believing her to be a symbol of purity and beauty— Daniela Innocenti-Beem is astonishing, her interpretation of Aldonza’s desperation is as raw and real as her singing is sweet and often soaring. The remarkably good supporting cast is full of strong voices and striking performances. These include Michael van Why as Quixote’s faithful squire Sancho Panza, Anthony Martinez as the skeptical prisoner known as the Duke, Mary Gannon Graham as Quixano’s housekeeper, Kim Anderson as Quixano’s niece Antonia and Stephen Walsh as the inmate known as the Governor, who puts Cervantes—and his Don Quixote manuscript—on trial. With strong support from lighting, set design, costume and makeup, this lovely, passionately acted, emotionally searing La Mancha is at times heartbreaking, shattering and even horrifying, while simultaneously remaining hopeful, engaging and healing. It’s everything a musical can and should be. Rating (out of 5): ‘Man of La Mancha’ runs through Sept. 24 at Cinnabar Theater, 3333 Petaluma Blvd. N., Petaluma. Friday–Saturday, 8pm; Sunday, 2pm. $15–$30. 707.763.8920.

SOUND VISION Graphic artist Katie

Kincade draws inspiration for her art from the Grateful Dead.

Rocking Artist Katie Kincade marries art and music

BY CHARLIE SWANSON

he North Bay’s music scene is multifaceted. Talented musicians and bands, dedicated promoters and top-quality venues all interact to form the scene’s aesthetic, and one artist is adding her vision to the mix.

For the last four years, graphic artist Katie Kincade has made her mark on music in Sonoma and Marin counties as an in-demand concert-poster designer. She also produces eye-popping original album art, band logos, T-shirts, drumheads and more. “I’ve always been doing art in one form or another,” says Kincade. Growing up in Southern California, she moved to San Francisco to study fine art at San

Music

Francisco State and moved to Petaluma in 2005. A photography major, with a minor in graphic design, Kincade says she didn’t do much with the degree until a friend in rock band the Grain asked her to make a logo for them. She did, and then she made a concert poster for them, then another and another. Word of mouth spread quickly, and now Kincade works full-time as a graphic artist, working almost strictly with local bands and festivals. Each piece of art is tailor-made. “I often start by considering the type of music the band is, what their music describes,” Kincade says. “Or I just come up with something and roll with it.” Kincade’s work is marked by highly detailed, densely layered and colorful splashes of illustration that complement a musician or band’s sound. Her portfolio includes work for Steve Kimock, the Greyboy Allstars and Poor Man’s Whiskey, and venues like Terrapin Crossroads and HopMonk Tavern. Kincade’s main source of inspiration is her favorite band, the Grateful Dead, which influences her overall look, best described as a twisted throwback to concert art of the 1960s. Many of her posters depict nature scenes, like rosebeds or waterfalls, bordering psychedelic representations of people or animals that swirl within circular patterns and jump off the page in striking poses. “I learn new things about what’s possible every time I do a poster,” she says. “But I think I’ve found my look.” Kincade says she’s seen a surge of both local bands and grassroots support for local music in recent years, and she appreciates being connected to the scene through her art. “Every single person is so into the music and the community,” she says. “I think everybody is stepping it up creatively; everybody’s influencing each other. It’s so cool to see. “I don’t take any of this for granted —I still get giddy about it all.”

New study shows use doesn’t follow legalization

BY SHEILA P. VAKHARIA

‘B

ut what about the kids?” Most of us drug-policy reformers have been asked this question (or one like it) by a well-meaning adult concerned that marijuana legalization sends the “wrong message” to our youth. We get it. People worry that legalization could lead young people to start using marijuana at an earlier age or make it more socially acceptable for them to use. A study published on Aug. 17 in the Journal of Substance Use and Misuse, with data out of Colorado, adds to the growing body of literature which could allay some of these fears. The researchers were curious about whether the onset of retail marijuana sales in

Colorado in 2014 had an impact on adolescent use, attitudes towards marijuana and access to marijuana. They analyzed responses from over 20,000 public middle and high school students who completed the Healthy Kids Colorado Survey (HKCS) and compared their 2013 responses to their 2014 responses in order to detect any possible changes. So what did they find? There was no sudden increase in reported rates of marijuana use after retail sales began in 2014. Rates remained essentially the same as 2013. The portion of adolescents who thought that smoking marijuana was harmful also did not change. The majority of the sample (over 60 percent) continued to believe it was wrong for young people to use marijuana. And, although slightly more students said they could “easily” get access to marijuana in 2014, the researchers found that having a marijuana store within two miles of the school could not explain this increase in perceived access. Interestingly, the study’s results diverge from research in the areas of alcohol and tobacco, which has long suggested that stores which sell these products close to schools are associated with increased use among students. It didn’t appear to be the case for marijuana in Colorado in 2014. As the country continues to weigh the benefits and risks of marijuana legalization, studies such as these that track the impact on adolescent attitudes and behaviors are critical. We know that prohibition has been harmful to youth, particularly young people of color. With less risk of criminal justice involvement and no increase in rates of youth, for now anyway, it seems that the kids are all right indeed. This piece first appeared on the Drug Policy Alliance blog. Sheila P. Vakharia is the policy manager of the Office of Academic Engagement for the Drug Policy Alliance.

ARIES (March 21–April 19) You’re half-intoxicated by your puzzling adventures—and half-bewildered, as well. Sometimes you’re spinning out fancy moves, sweet tricks and surprising gambits. On other occasions you’re stumbling and bumbling and mumbling. Are you really going to keep up this rhythm? I hope so, because your persistence in navigating through the challenging fun could generate big rewards. Like what, for example? Like the redemptive transformation of a mess into an asset. TAURUS (April 20–May 20)

“Free your mind and your ass will follow,” sings funk pioneer George Clinton in his song “Good Thoughts, Bad Thoughts.” And what’s the best way to free your mind? Clinton advises you to “Be careful of the thought-seeds you plant in the garden of your mind.” That’s because the ideas you obsess on will eventually grow into the experiences you attract into your life. “Good thoughts bring forth good fruit,” he croons, while “Bullshit thoughts rot your meat.” Any questions, Taurus? According to my astrological analysis, this is the best possible counsel for you to receive right now.

GEMINI (May 21–June 20) James Loewen wrote a book called Lies My Teacher Told Me: Everything Your American History Textbook Got Wrong. He said, for instance, that during the Europeans’ invasion and conquest of the continent, it wasn’t true that Native Americans scalped white settlers. In fact, it was mostly the other way around: whites scalped Indians. Here’s another example: The famous blind and deaf person, Helen Keller, was not a sentimental spokesperson for sweetness and light, but rather a radical feminist and socialist who advocated revolution. I invite you to apply Loewen’s investigative approach to your personal past, Gemini. The coming weeks will be an excellent time to uncover hidden, incomplete and distorted versions of your history, and correct them.

CANCER (June 21–July 22) Roger Hodge writes books now, but when he worked for Harper’s magazine, he had an unusual specialty. He gathered heaps of quirky facts, and assembled several at a time into long sentences that had a nutty poetic grace. Here’s an example: “British cattle have regional accents, elephants mourn their dead, nicotine sobers drunk rats, scientists have concluded that teenagers are physically incapable of being considerate, and clinical trials of an ‘orgasmatron’ are underway in North Carolina.” I’m offering Hodge as a worthy role model for you in the coming weeks, Cancerian. Be curious, miscellaneous and free-flowing. Let your mind wander luxuriantly as you make unexpected connections. Capitalize on the potential blessings that appear through zesty twists and tangy turns. LEO (July 23–August 22) In Japan you can buy a brand of candy that’s called the Great Buddha’s Nose Snot. Each piece consists of a rice puff that resembles the Buddha’s nose filled with bits of brown sugar that symbolize the snot. The candy-making company assures customers that eating this treat brings them good luck. I invite you to be equally earthy and irreverent about your own spiritual values in the coming days. You’re in prime position to humanize your relationship with divine influences . . . to develop a more visceral passion for your holiest ideals . . . to translate your noblest aspirations into practical, enjoyable actions.

VIRGO (August 23–September 22) Will a routine trip to carry out an errand take you on a detour to the suburbs of the promised land? Will you worry you’re turning into a monster, only to find the freakishness is just a phase that you had to pass through on your way to unveiling some of your dormant beauty? Will a provocative figure from the past lead you on a productive wild-goose chase into the future? These are some of the possible storylines I’ll be monitoring as I follow your progress in the coming weeks. LIBRA (September 23–October 22) Let’s meet in the woods after midnight and tell each other stories about our origins, revealing the secrets we almost forgot we had. Let’s sing the songs that electrified our emotions all those years ago when we first fell in love

BY ROB BREZSNY

with our lives. Starlight will glow on our ancient faces. The fragrance of loam will seep into our voices like rainwater feeding the trees’ roots. We’ll feel the earth turning on its axis, and sense the rumble of future memories coming to greet us. We’ll join hands, gaze into the dreams in each other’s eyes, and dive as deep as we need to go to find hidden treasures.

SCORPIO (October 23–November 21)

I don’t usually recommend giving gifts with strings attached. On the contrary, I advise you to offer your blessings without having any expectations at all. Generosity often works best when the recipients are free to use it any way they see fit. In the coming weeks, however, I’m making an exception to my rule. According to my reading of the omens, now is a time to be specific and forceful about the way you’d like your gifts to be used. As an example of how not to proceed, consider the venture capitalist who donated $25,000 to the University of Colorado. All he got in return was a rest room in a campus building named after him. If you give away $25,000, Scorpio, make sure you at least get a whole building named after you.

SAGITTARIUS (November 22–December 21)

Now that you’re getting a taste of what life would be like if you ruled the world, I’ll recommend a manual. It’s called How to Start Your Own Country, by Erwin Strauss. (Get a free peek here: tinyurl.com/ YouSovereign.) You could study it for tips on how to obtain national sovereignty, how to recruit new citizens and how to avoid paying taxes to yourself. (P.S.: You can make dramatic strides toward being the boss of yourself and your destiny even without forming your own nation.)

CAPRICORN (December 22–January 19) There was a time when not even the most ambitious explorers climbed mountains. In the western world, the first time it happened was in 1492, when a Frenchman named Antoine de Ville ascended to the top of Mont Aiguille, using ladders, ropes and other props. I see you as having a kinship with de Ville in the coming weeks, Capricorn. I’d love to see you embark on a big adventure that would involve you trying on the role of a pioneer. This feat wouldn’t necessarily require strenuous training and physical courage. It might be more about daring creativity and moral courage. AQUARIUS (January 20–February 18) Science fiction proposes that there are alternate worlds alongside the visible one—hidden, yes, but perhaps accessible with the right knowledge or luck. In recent years, maverick physicists have given the idea more credibility, theorizing that parallel universes exist right next to ours. Even if these hypothetical places aren’t literally real, they serve as an excellent metaphor. Most of us are so thoroughly embedded in our own chosen niche that we are oblivious to the realities that other people inhabit. I bring these thoughts to your attention, Aquarius, because it’s a favorable time to tap into those alternate, parallel, secret, unknown or unofficial realms. Wake up to the rich sources that have been so close to you, but so far away. PISCES (February 19–March 20)

I’m always in favor of you cultivating a robust relationship with your primal longings. But I’ll be rooting extra hard for you to do that during the next 11 months. I hope you will dig deep to identify your primal longings, and I hope you will revere them as the wellspring of your life energy, and I hope you will figure out all the tricks and strategies you will need to fulfill them. Here’s a hint about how to achieve the best results as you do this noble work: Define your primal longings with as much precision as you can, so that you will never pursue passing fancies that bear just a superficial resemblance to the real things.
