MICKEY MOUSE, A TRANSFORMER, A HIP HOP DANCER, MILLIONS OF TOURISTS AND YOU ON HOLLYWOOD BOULEVARD: WE DON’T ALL FIT
The City of Los Angeles is taking steps to deal with chaos on Hollywood Boulevard, where costumed characters who pose with tourists for tips are causing sidewalk congestion that often forces pedestrians into the busy street. The City Council wants to draft an ordinance creating an “entertainment zone” on the most impacted section of Hollywood Boulevard, from Highland Avenue to Orange Avenue. In that one section of the boulevard, there are throngs of tourists (almost 12 million tourist visits to the boulevard in 2013), locals, two major movie theaters, tourist attractions, tour busses loading and unloading, tour ticket kiosks, street vendors, business owner displays, and non-stop activity from morning until well into the night. In the midst of all of this, characters and street performers cause pedestrians to stop, causing bottlenecking. According to a report prepared for the Board of Police Commissioners: “The Department opines the heavy congestion of pedestrian traffic due to street performers attracts oversized crowds, resulting in a large portion of sidewalks being blocked forcing passersby to walk onto the street or wait. Various characters in costumes and street performers are often involved in incidents of theft and extortion. Tourists feel that they are being pressured to buy novelty items they don’t want. Sidewalk street merchants seek donations from tourists with photo opportunities. Loud music or speakers are used for free style hip hop dancing, speeches or other First Amendment protected acts. These occurrences draw in a large crowd and are often complained about by restaurant patrons and neighboring apartment tenants.”

There have also been some high-profile incidents. In 2015, “Mickey Mouse” and “Donald Duck” got into a fist fight outside the Dolby Theatre. Both were arrested. That same year, “Mr. Incredible” was filmed punching “Batgirl” in the face in front of the Chinese Theatre. The video was posted on YouTube, and “Mr. Incredible” was convicted of battery. When it comes to extortion and theft on the part of characters, prosecution is difficult when the victims return to home countries. Ironman in front of the Dolby Theatre

WE ARE NOT ALONE
CELEBRITY AND HEROISM WITH MR. FISH Political cartoonist Mr. Fish (a.k.a. Dwayne Booth) is the artist behind the current exhibit at Robert Berman Gallery in Santa Monica. But anyone expecting cartooning will be surprised. The exhibit consists of large portraits, displaying serious technical skill. True to Mr. Fish’s cartoonist instincts, however, there is commentary involved. But here it is rendered via implication as opposed to the overt nature of political cartoons. The people portrayed on the walls at Robert Hanson Gallery are celebrities--comedic, literary, political, musical, more. Mr. Fish asks what it is about celebrity and heroism that moves us. Does the fact of someone else being celebrated excuse us from the room, allowing us the perception that someone better qualified is handling truth or beauty? In a time when the political conversation is getting dumber and dumber (leading Mr. Fish to say, “We don’t even know what to panic about as a species any more.”), the artists depicted in the exhibit, regardless of their forms of expression, are all people of deep intelligence. “At one time there were public people who were artists and intellectuals,” says Mr. Fish.

LOST AND FOUND: HOW TO GET YOUR STOLEN BIKE BACK by Josef Bray-Ali
A few weeks ago, while I was working late in my shop, someone walking by the shop saw my bakfiets cargo bike parked out front and decided to steal it. The bike was locked to itself using a rear wheel lock – so this enterprising crook had to pick up the 70-lbs beast and haul it away on one wheel. I was so absorbed in my work at the time I ignored the bumping and rattling taking place in front of the shop (my neighbors did too!) only to emerge at 9:30 p.m. and see that my cargo bike was missing. My First Reaction My first reaction after I saw my bike was gone was to go on the hunt. I got on another bike, rode around the neighborhood, down into the local freeway on-ramps, bridge overpasses, and camping spots to look for local junkies trying to strip my bike for parts. A Park Tool pedal wrench and a ton of adrenaline were my only weapons. It was pointless: all the camps I saw from days before had moved on. I didn’t see a soul. Well, I did meet one person: a young man, also on the hunt for his own stolen bike (!). It was a white fixed gear bike, he said. I promised to keep an eye out; I returned to my shop at 10:30 p.m. deeply panicked. A phone call and text message chain later with a couple of friends helped me develop an action plan to get my bike back. I recalled a similar incident with a stolen cargo bike in Venice – my friend Layne Kagay, owner of CETMA Cargo, had one of his hand made cargo bikes stolen. Layne went bananas online, and in person, and has a considerable social network – and after a few days, the thief felt the heat and had a third party return the cargo bike. The Good News The good news: I got my bike back the very next day! Why was I able to get it back? • First, I had several (many, actually) images of me and the bike. • Second, my bike is very, very, unique in my community and I ride it absolutely everywhere – people identify me by my unique bicycle. • Third, I own a small business, and I’ve run hundreds and hundreds of free community events, rides, meetings, and rallies over the past 10 years. My social network, and social media network, is sizable and a lot of the people who know and follow me online live very close by. • Fourth, I registered the bike online years ago with a detailed description, serial number, and photos on Bike Index, and I used this to file a police report the day after the bike was stolen. • Last, but not least, I hit the search for my bike *hard* and with every ounce of energy I could muster and would not stop spreading the word until something happened. Online on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook the image I made was retweeted, and re-posted far and wide (from my kids school PTA; to my friends from high school I haven’t seen in years; a national professional bike mechanics association; to many local newsgroups and forums). In person, I got an old busted color printer working and printed a bunch of color images up; slept on the floor of my shop; woke up at the crack of dawn and posted the flyers all over the immediate neighborhood. Every wino, truck driver, house wife, school kid, friend, acquaintance, OG, hoodlum, abuelita, and random passerby quickly found out that “that bike guy” was looking for his (my) stolen bike. As with Layne Kagay’s cargo bike, and so many other bikes, the theft was not done by an elite team of bike thieves from a spy thriller. The theft of my bike was a crime of opportunity and was done by a local person stealing from a neighbor – a very common scenario. The Reunion The morning after: after filing a police report, heading back from breakfast, I got a phone call from a local guy who says, “Hey man, I know where your bike is at. Meet me at your shop.” The local guy had gotten a call from some friends late last night, “Hey fool, we got this crazy bike over here. It’s real long like a wheel barrow. XXXXXX stumbled home with it drunk after that party at XXXXXX’s house. Fifty bucks.” “Dog, I knew it was your bike. Then I saw it blowing up on Instagram, and I seen you with your kid on it all the time. So, I can help you get it back.” “Cool man.” I ran to the cash register, pulled out $100 and slapped it in his hand. “Take me to my bike. I just want my bike.” A half-mile away, across the Metro tracks, we rolled up to a faded green Craftsman house. The sound of the 110 freeway, the smell of dog poop warming up in the morning sun and dew on the bushes and packed dirt. “I’ll be right back,” said the local guy. And back he came: holding the rear end aloft, stumbling down the driveway. “Hey, so, how do you drive this thing anyway?” I popped the key in the rear wheel lock and took a quick look at the bike. I got my baby back. 18 hours of hell, but I got my bakfiets back. I bought the local guy a BMX bike from one of my wholesale connections. He’d never had a new bike before in his adult life, he said, and his fixie had just been stolen a few days before. My wife and a good friend had followed my Twitter trail, and one of them snapped a photo. It’s silly. I look like a goof ball, but that is not me play-acting. I can’t afford another bakfiets, and this machine means more to me than literally every other possession I own. It is how I live my life, how I stay fit, and happy – and I got it back! “So, you found it?” “Hey, I heard you found your bike! Awesome!” “How did you get it back?” Since getting my bike back, the wave of news about its theft has traveled into the phones, computer screens, and minds of thousands of local people. Friends have gotten in touch with me that I’d lost contact with. Strangers who’ve seen me ride by for years have stopped to chat and share their stolen bike story and listen to mine. A week later, an LAPD cruiser passed by a restaurant I was having lunch in – and stopped to check the bike out! They had an APB in their car about my stolen (and returned!) bike. Word had gotten out. I thanked the officers profusely, showed them evidence I was the owner (their console had my Instagram image on it!), and even filled out a commendation form and mailed it in on their behalf. I lost a lot of sleep, a month or two off my life due to stress, but I found out the key to getting your bike back isn’t about just registering it and filing a police report; it’s about fighting against the despair of loss; and having a social network that can come through for you the way you have for others.

THE WHOLE DISH The eggplant in my garden is going crazy! So this taco has become a new summer grill favorite. Robata is a Japanese method of cooking long pieces of food on an open flame on big skewers. The charred eggplant, combined with the slightly spicy miso slaw make for an awesome fusion taco. The sprouted corn tortilla is superior for nutrition, and it has a homemade tortilla kind of texture and flavor. I loved the way this came out and will definitely make this a regular.
ART ON THE WALL
robata eggplant tacos with miso-sesame coleslaw for the coleslaw: 2 cups finely shredded cabbage 2/3 cups grated radish 2 tbsp. rice wine vinegar juice of one lime 1tsp. chile garlic sauce or paste 1 tbsp. sesame oil 1 tbsp. miso paste 2 tsp. raw honey or agave nectar 1 tsp. grated fresh ginger 1 clove garlic, grated or minced 1/2 tsp. ground coriander 1 tbsp. sesame seeds 1/4 tsp. fresh cracked pepper 1 tbsp. each fresh chopped cilantro, mint, and basil extra cilantro for garnish for the tacos: 3 japanese eggplant 6 scallions, trimmed avocado oil or extra virgin olive oil chile powder, Japanese 7-spice, and-or Chinese 5 spice optional- equal parts water, tamari or liquid aminos, & lime juice, in a small dish salt & pepper for taste 6 sprouted corn tortillas
 avocado for garnish (optional) your favorite hot sauce condiment (I used an organic Sriracha) First make the coleslaw. Mix the shredded cabbage and radish in a medium mixing bowl. In a separate small mixing bowl, mix the remaining coleslaw ingredients to create the dressing. Add the dressing to the cabbage mix and stir to blend well. Set aside. Slice the eggplant in half lengthwise, so you have long halves of eggplant. Brush a little of the oil on each eggplant, cut side up, and sprinkle some or a combination of the three spices. Use the seasonings to suit your taste. Grill the eggplant on both sides until it is slightly caramelized-charred, and tender all the way through. If it appears dry, use the water-tamari-lime mixture and moisten the eggplant using a pastry or bbq brush. Toss the scallions in some oil and add to the grill. When the eggplant and scallions are done, set them aside, and warm the tortillas on the grill. Build your tacos by first putting coleslaw, then one eggplant per taco, and then one scallion per taco. Top with avocado, hot sauce or any other suitable garnish or topping. Add a few sprigs of cilantro, and devour as soon as possible!

THE RIVER SWALLOWS

By Yanci Aguilar Piedra
[A Tribute to Gustavo and Carlos]
don't be fooled it looks shallow "let me go for a quick swim" they said don't get fooled They will be swallowed. quicker than they think. breathing suddenly becomes hard. the suffering commences. no bars. no fences. safety is being lacked. contaminated water. government's errors are being hacked. no progress into development. thus, the community becomes self destruction. "we need safety, and renovations"Â the water becomes thicker. the water is deeper. it's cold. they continue to struggle. they cannot swim. "gulp, gulp, gulp" the water goes into their throats. they weep suffocation. desperation. don't be fooled. it looks shallow. you will be swallowed. it has its' own mind games. manipulation. splash, splash. went the water. it is silenced. the water finally calmed. their bodies never made it back out to see day. they didn't do wrong. it could've swallowed anyone. victimization again. three. two. one. their souls are resting upon heaven.
I SEE MY RIVER 2 The School of History and Dramatic Arts (SoHDA). a public high school, sits alongside the Los Angeles River. It is natural therefore, that its students, who in the few years of the school’s existence have been producing impressive performance pieces, would look to the river as a source of inspiration. That situation took a dramatic turn when two students lost their lives in the river in April. On July 31, students, graduates, faculty, and advisory board members of SoHDA joined with community members from river neighborhoods for a day of arts and learning about the river. They honored the memories of Carlos and Gustavo, the lost students. They also, through arts and information, sought to understand the tragedy, but also to envision a future for the river alongside the school.
[Yanci Aguilar Piedra is a graduate of the School of History and Dramatic Arts (SoHDA) in Glassell Park. This poem was written in honor of two students: Gustavo and Carlos, who lost their lives in the Los Angeles River in April.]

PRESIDENT PASSES BILL: STATE WITH THE LEAST AMOUNT OF GUN VIOLENCE WILL RECEIVE A PIZZA PARTY. BY VINCE CALDERA
Washington D.C. - Millions rejoiced at the news of a new law, unanimously passed by The House of Representatives, Senate, and the President--a law hoping to end gun violence in America. The new measure promises that: “The state with the least amount of gun violence annually, will receive a pizza party.” The news couldn’t have come at a better time, having been announced the morning after nationally revered “Crazy Sock Day.” Some are calling this law, “The coolest law ever.” Veneece Caldera, a 4th grader, was the young little patriot responsible for proposing this bill, inspired by Schoolhouse Rock, her love for pizza, and partying. Since having her bill become law, millions have sought her advice in resolving even bigger issues throughout the U.S., including a proposition to end our trillion dollar debt deficit by selling chocolate bars, but of course, only to family and friends. Despite the love for this new bill, there is a lot of backlash. Thousands of people are reminded of a bill that was passed a year prior by another youngster, Davian Carrillo. The bill promised a popsicle party to the state that could conserve the most water. Time passed, and after a series of lengthy emails and phone calls to the White House, it was clear the popsicle party was just another empty promise. This of course led to the notorious “Bomb Pop Riots,” when millions of outraged citizens across the nation threw popsicle treats at government officials, leaving 17 dead and hundreds injured. When asked to comment about the inspiration for said bill, the President said, “I seriously fucking love pizza and totally hate guns. When I first saw this bill, I didn’t think much of it. It was written in crayon and had a few spelling errors. It looked like a 4th grader wrote it. Once I actually sat down to read it I was like, ‘Oh shit, a 4th grader did write this.’ I had an epiphany. The only shootout I ever wanna see on a campus, or otherwise, is from people making it rain from the 3point line. I fucking cried’.” The pizza is currently in the works, and selection for the best pizza delivery person is underway. You can see a live feed of the pizza being made on PizzaNotPistols.Gov. The future looks brighter than ever for America. [Vince Caldera is a stand-up comic. He is co-host of The Highland Park Show, first Wednesdays at Cafe de Leche.]

HAVE A GOOD NO LEARNIN’ SUMMER! By Jen Hitchcock
I am at a red light. A canvas banner hangs from a chain link fence, its beaming font drawing my eye. “VACATION BIBLE SCHOOL!” it advertises, “NOW ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS!” All I could think in that moment is how diametrically opposed “vacation” is to the other two words. I mean when is the last time these people looked up the definition of “vacation?” But then again, I was a kid who had godless parents who let me spend my summers sleeping late, hunting for salamanders under rocks, holding wrestling matches in pop up tents with my neighborhood friends and playing endless games of Monopoly on our front porch. For me, the two months of summer vacation were all about letting the day take me where it would. There was no schedule, no school, and definitely no bible. The kind of education I received during the summer was more scientific than spiritual. For example, did you know that if you keep a whirlpool going long and fast enough in a tiny above ground pool, the sides will give out and you will find yourself suddenly beached with the plastic sides splayed out around you and the grass of your backyard duly watered? This I learned. I also remember a very distinct transition into summer vacation. I attended the last day of school buzzing with excitement we were to be free for a few months, but also a bit blue that there would be school friends (or crushes) whom I wouldn’t see for months. Now, as my own daughter’s July schedule reflects, it seems like summer vacation is more like a shift into School Lite. Sure dance and gymnastic camps are probably more fun for most kids than math and spelling classes, but isn’t it awesome to just do absolutely nothing but jump through sprinklers, read comics and whine about being bored for long stretches of time too? I’d write more but I have to pick up my daughter from [insert something here] camp so she won’t be late for… and… and … and…. Jen Hitchcock is the owner of Book Show, a book and gift sideshow in Highland Park. At Book Show, it is always old school summer vacation. It is located at 5503 N. Figueroa Street.
BA BYE! The last day of business at Ba will be Sunday, August 14th. We have accepted an offer to take over the kitchen at 5100 York Boulevard from a colleague we respect and trust, and the timing is right for us to start some new projects. Six years ago, I had a very specific vision for Ba. I wanted to walk to work and make soup for my friends, and I have done that and made so many new friends because of it. I wanted to bring back old school French classic recipes using organic California ingredients. I wanted to prove that it was possible to do labor intensive, ingredient driven food made from scratch and make a profit. We did just that, and it was a lot of work. In the four plus years of operation, Ba has employed over 50 friends and neighbors in a space that had been vacant for 15 years. We have sourced all of our food and services, almost all from within L.A. County. I did exactly what I said I was going to do, and I got exactly what I wanted. We do not get to say those words very often in this life. True, it was different than I expected, but I am really proud of it. Thanks for all the love. We had a lot of fun, and we shared a lot of good food! James at Ba

“Adaptability”
by Jeremy Kaplan Read Books There is some shit that small business owners are not supposed to talk about whilst conducting small business. That’s the sort of shit I’m lately willing to talk about; controversial topics that tend to steam one’s bean. Lest you think me merely confrontational or opinionated, one of them self-indulgent sum’bitches, my raison d’etre, as the French say, is actually quite contrary to being contrary. I am currently, in my wilting salad days, trying to train myself in the arts of self-restaint and subtlety. So when a politically-minded fella came in the store during DNC week, espied our Bernie memorabilia, and chose to repeat on oft-repeated internet meme concerning Bernie, Hillary, & Donald, I did not shrug & feign indifference. Nor did I climb across the counter & throttle his neck. I praised his wit & then attempted to illustrate his lack of it. “Those Bernie or Bust people...” he chuckled. “it’s like they asked for a Coke, got a Pepsi instead, so now they’re all gonna set their hair on fire. Know what I mean?” “Yeah, I get it. That’s a good one!” I chuckled. “Bernie’s Coke, Hillary’s Pepsi, & Trump is self-immolation. That’s cute, but I think I got a more accurate one. You live around here?” “I do.” “Okay then. It’s like I want to ean an al pastor huarache at El Huarache Azteca, but a bunch of dipshits with mediocre taste tell me I gots to go eat an alleged burrito at fucking Chipotle, so in protest I stagger into the kitchen and dunk my face into a boiling vat of pig grease. Now as a matter of principle, I’d never eat at a fucking Chipotle, but sometimes principles collide, and the prospect of all that pig grease searing my face--against my principles--and the knowledge that there will be a whole lot of swarthier & homosexualier people than I dunked into that scalding lard en masse, has me thinking about flexibility & adaptability. So yeah, I’ll drink your Pepsi,” I smiled at him. “But it ain’t Pepsi. It’s fucking Chipotle. And it should be a huarache. Not that any of this is germane anyhow, since Bernie or Bursters are more inclined toward Jill Stein.” “Ohhh... So you’re going Green Party?” “Stein,” I babbled on, pursuing the analogy-making with the sort of zeal most men reserve for the baby-making, “is like a decent food critic. Seems to have admirable taste, prefers the authentic stuff over the corporate vomit. But what the hell has she ever cooked? She’s a critic. She eats, she kvetches, but she’s never been in the kitchen making the important choices. So I’m supposed to buy her mystery burrito, knowing damn well that while I’m flitting about congratulating myself on my daring taste, some clown is gonna dowse half the world with pig grease?” “So then,” he said, reaching out a hand to shake mine, “we’re on the same side.” If an aversion to scalding lard baths somehow constitutes a side, then yeah, we’re that.”
“Take!”
A One-Act Play by Florence the Dog Interior. A tiny bookstore in northeast Los Angeles. A tall, gangly biped sits on a chair, behind a desk, shoveling a hunk of pork-capped huarache into his depilitated pie-hole. His grunting & moaning are reminiscent of the sounds that one associates with the animal he presently devours. He looks through the window with his soulless, vacuous eyes in the direction of a Mexican food chain directly across the street. BIPED (Bitterly) Look at all those corporate stooges lining up at fucking Chipotle. As the bible says: “Smite them o’ Lord, for they know not the silly shit that they doeth.” Hmm? Biped looks down at his leg where a regal dog stares up at him through her soulful, haunted eyes.
Whatta’ you want girl? Hmm? You hungry?
The heroic dog cocks her head & stares at the birdbrained biped as if to say: “Look at you; a fucking genius.” Biped dangles the huarache over Dog’s head.
Sit girl. Sit. Heh heh. DOG
Give boy? Give BIPED
Sit! DOG Give? A telephone rings. Biped sets the scrumptious huarache on his desk and speaks into the phone. BIPED Read Books, how can I, uhhm,,,help you? Yup. Yeah. I think we got that one. I’ll go look and you go wait. The biped lurches into the far aisle in search of a book, leaving the gallant dog in the shadow of the front desk. Snifing the aor, she looks left...and she looks right...she rears back and then bounds onto the desl mere inches from her next meal. THE END
