THE LOCKED INN
FULL-TIME WRITER
SLO County’s first & best
ESCAPE ROOM
The Sun in Northern Santa Barbara County is looking for its next staff writer, but we’re not looking for just any article-pushing, source-wrangling, story-chasing someone. Are you sick of editing or regurgitating press releases day after day? Or maybe it’s those damn list things— you know the ones: “Top 10 hottest places to eat your lunch on a rainy day.” Or maybe it’s just not being able to put the time and reporting into a story that deserves it: the weeks and repeated phone calls that give a story what it needs to ripen into the hard-charging, data-filled narrative it’s dying to be; the time that turns a “meh” story into one that blows a hole in the status quo.

Can you see the big picture of what a story means to a community? Is that what drives you? Do you know what it takes to—yes, we know, it’s cliché—make a difference in the lives of the people you cover? Does that sort of thing matter to you? If so, then you’re exactly who we’re looking for: a staff writer who isn’t afraid to take on the tedious, the tenuous, or the talented. That certain someone who can wrestle a story to the ground and fill it with the things that matter to the communities we cover at the Sun and New Times. Oil, agricultural, water, and environmental advocacy aren’t the only things that drive this place—although those are pretty juicy beats.

Locals join the nationwide rally for reproductive rights
O
n May 21, the SLO County Courthouse was occupied with women and men in pink pussy hats, pink Planned Parenthood T-shirts, purple “Truth to Power” SLO Women’s March T-shirts, and signs of all kinds. “We won’t go quietly back to the 1950s.” “Together we fight for all.” “Keep your laws off our bodies.” Women’s March San Luis Obispo organized a local rally as part of a nationwide day of action calling for a stop to the recent abortion bans and fighting for reproductive rights and access to quality reproductive health care services. Susan Howe, 85, attended. She said she has always thoroughly believed in the right of a woman to be able to decide for herself if she has to have an abortion. “I’m so sad and so tired of the fact that we have to go over this over and over again. It makes me disappointed in my country,” Howe said. A restrictive abortion law that was passed in Alabama on May 15 sparked the nationwide rallying effort. The law makes it a crime for doctors to perform abortions at any stage of pregnancy, unless a woman’s life is threatened—there are no exceptions for cases of rape or incest. Under the new law, doctors in the state face felony jail time up to 99 years if convicted. Days later, Missouri’s Legislature passed a bill banning abortions at eight weeks. Georgia, Mississippi, Kentucky, and Ohio recently passed laws banning abortion after heartbeat activity can be detected—around the sixth week of pregnancy. None of the recently passed laws have taken effect yet. Dawn Addis, Women’s March SLO co-founder, said it was important to organize a local rally because she knows that what’s happened in one area of the nation can happen elsewhere. “The power of the Women’s March is that it engages women and allies in local communities

We want our sisters in states where their rights are being affected to know that we stand in solidarity with them,” Addis said, “and we also want to be a part of the larger community that is standing up for access to safe and legal medical care for all women.” Addis said that the organization understands that these laws are a direct attack to Roe v. Wade. “If things change at that level, then absolutely it could have an effect locally. Right now, the laws in California are supportive and are expanding, but that doesn’t mean it will always be that way,” she said.

Lawsuit filed to retake Hillside Church from local man
A dispute over who really owns the Hillside Church in Grover Beach has spilled into court. The Christian and Missionary Alliance (CMA), a national Protestant denomination with 2,000 churches, filed a lawsuit against local resident John Fleming, alleging that Fleming wrongfully claimed ownership of the church earlier in May in order to stop its pending sale to two local nonprofits. With $2.7 million in financial backing from San Luis Obispo County, 5Cities Homeless Coalition and Peoples’ Self-Help Housing are in escrow to buy the Hillside Church from CMA, with plans to develop the property into a homeless services facility. The parties entered escrow in January of this year, with a sale price of $2.25 million and a
close of escrow date of July 16. On May 6, Fleming, who says he’s attended Hillside Church since 2014 and is a board member, filed paperwork at the County Clerk’s Office granting the property to himself and the Bethel Baptist Church—its original affiliation dating to 1962. “It’s our intention to keep Bethel Baptist open as a place to worship,” Fleming told New Times on May 21. CMA’s May 17 lawsuit alleges that Fleming illegally transferred the property and misrepresented himself as the president of Hillside Church, “despite never being a pastor, officer, director, agent, or employee” there. The suit also says Fleming has since liquidated the church’s bank account of about $8,000, changed the locks on the church, and has “threatened and/or implied the property NEWS continued page 6

will be damaged” if Bethel Baptist doesn’t retain ownership of the church. “Defendants had no authority, legal interest, equitable interest, or otherwise power to control the [property],” the complaint reads. Fleming, though, told New Times that he is “both a member and a board member” of the church and that a former pastor, Ron Kennedy, put Fleming on its signature card at the bank. CMA attorney Michael Pick declined to comment on the specific allegations made in the lawsuit—among which are wrongful possession of property, slander of title, trespassing, intentional interference with contract, and conversion. “The purpose of the lawsuit is to protect [my client’s] property rights and to ensure it can fulfill its contractual obligations,” Pick told New Times via email. The ownership dispute has thrown the property’s sale and its future plans for homeless services and low-income housing into uncertainty. CMA’s title company, Fidelity National Title, has told the parties that it can’t close escrow due to a cloud on the title. According to the lawsuit, that declaration came not in response to Fleming, but to a letter from SLO attorney John Belsher. The suit states that Belsher wrote the letter on behalf of “parties very concerned” about the sale to say that CMA did not have the right to sell the property. CMA’s involvement at Hillside Church developed slowly over time. In 2012, Bethel Baptist Church changed its name to Hillside Church. In 2014, amid declining membership, finances, and attendance, church membership voted to “remove its affiliation with the Baptist Church,” in favor of the CMA, according to the lawsuit. Later in 2014, CMA labeled Hillside as a “developing church.” Per the lawsuit, that meant CMA had the “responsibility of governing the church,” its assets, and liabilities. In 2016, Hillside Church underwent another name change, to Hillside Church of the CMA. Finally, in October 2018, then church pastor and President Kennedy filed papers to transfer the property to Hillside Church of CMA. “As a result of dwindling finances and attendance, CMA decided to sell the property,” the lawsuit reads. —Peter Johnson
Closure of left-turns at El Campo and three other intersections will resume
After a meeting between Vintage Wine Estates, James Grant, and community members, Caltrans got the green light to resume work on closing El Campo and three other intersections along Highway 101 between Los Berros Road and Traffic Way on May 21. According to an open letter by Laetitia Vineyard and Wineries’ parent company, Vintage Wine Estates, emailed to New Times on May 16, the interested parties met and have agreed to join forces in pushing for long-term solutions for El Campo Road. “Together we have agreed to continue to advocate all-encompassing, short-

This includes a fasttracked overpass at El Campo, a J-turn including acceleration and de-acceleration lanes, lowering the speed limit on Highway 101 through this corridor, and potentially a stop light at El Campo until an overpass can be built,” the letter read. With the new partnership came a May 17 ruling in the lawsuit Vintage Wine Estates filed to halt the closures, allowing Caltrans to once again begin working to put up barriers at El Campo, a private unnamed road, Tower Grove Drive, and Hemi Road, regardless of the litigation—which is still ongoing. Caltrans issued a press release on May 20 stating it will begin an operational improvement project at the four intersections on May 21. Motorists will encounter lane closures along northbound Highway 101 weeknights during the overnight roadwork hours from 7 p.m. to 6 a.m. and southbound from 8 p.m. to 5:30 a.m. The intersection closure construction is scheduled to be completed May 24. Vintage Wine Estates filed a lawsuit in Sacramento County Court on May 7 against the state of California, the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) and Papich Construction Inc., alleging that Caltrans violated the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) by failing to prepare an environmental impact report and/or mitigated negative declaration for the project. Due to the legal challenge, the judge assigned to the case initially ordered a temporary stay on the El Campo project while the case is in litigation. The order prompted James Grant—whose son was fatally injured at the El Campo intersection in October 2018—to call for a boycott of Laetitia and all other wineries owned by Vintage Wine Estates. With the new partnership in place, Grant announced on the Jordan Grant Memorial Facebook page that the boycott is over. “Vintage Wine Estates is stepping forward and being the responsible community partner they have said they want to be, and we are grateful for their partnership with us in putting public safety before any other interests,” Grant said. —Karen Garcia
Grover Beach, Paso Robles vote to join Monterey Bay Community Power
The Grover Beach and Paso Robles city councils took their first official steps to join Monterey Bay Community Power (MBCP) the week of May 20—kicking off what’s expected to be a countywide exodus from PG&E to the northernly public electricity provider over the next few months. Both city councils voted to adopt first readings of ordinances to join MBCP. If finalized, they’ll be the third and fourth cities to do so, along with SLO and Morro Bay.
by Jayson Mellom
Pismo Beach, Arroyo Grande, Atascadero, Santa Maria, and Guadalupe, as well as SLO County, have upcoming meetings to consider joining the burgeoning Community Choice Energy (CCE) agency currently serving Monterey, Santa Cruz, and San Benito counties. “I applaud you for your leadership,” J.R. Killigrew, director of communications for MBCP, told the Grover Beach City Council on May 20. “I know both the Five Cities and [SLO] County, as well as Guadalupe and Santa Maria, are looking for someone to take the first step. I think with that momentum we will be able to unify the Central Coast.” Starting its service in 2018, MCBP is one of 12 California CCEs operating in PG&E territory. Governed by a board of directors comprised of local elected officials, a CCE handles energy purchasing and leaves PG&E responsible for distribution. MBCP has a carbon-free energy portfolio and matches PG&E’s rates while also providing 3.7 percent rebates to customers in 2018-19. It has $57 million in reserves, according to Grover Beach. Customers can choose between MBCP or PG&E, but they’re opted in to MBCP by default. As MBCP picks up new territory throughout the region, it’s considering rebranding with a Central Coast theme and opening a satellite office in SLO County. Local cities view joining MBCP as an opportunity to save electricity costs and go in a greener direction. According to a Paso Robles staff report, city ratepayers are set to save an estimated $4 million over five years as part of MBCP. “The projected savings are especially important now, as PG&E’s costs for transmission and distribution are going to rise sharply as a result of the recent fires and other problems,” the Paso staff report read. If all of SLO County were to join, MBCP estimates that total cost savings for residents and businesses would surpass $30 million between 2021 and 2025. In order for MBCP to meet deadlines necessary to begin service in SLO County starting 2020 and 2021, localities must finalize their decisions by July 31. County supervisors, who decided to abandon a local CCE formation effort last year, will meet on June 18 to discuss whether to include SLO’s unincorporated areas in MBCP. “I don’t really see a downside to this,” Grover Beach City Councilmember Karen Bright said on May 20. “You can opt out. Everyone has an opportunity—you can participate or not.” Δ —Peter Johnson

Curriculum and care Templeton Unified proposes a new before- and after-school program
C
hild care is hard to come by in San Luis Obispo County. According to the SLO County Child Care Planning Council Needs Assessment released in 2018, there’s a shortage of child care and lack of choices for parents countywide, especially in high-cost communities such as San Luis Obispo, Arroyo Grande, Cambria, and Templeton. Templeton Unified School District is looking to fill the gap by proposing a partnership to bring in a curriculumbased program for before- and afterschool care. Joe Koski, Templeton Unified’s superintendent, said the district would like to work with Discover Champions, a private provider with more than 500 before- and after-school and year-round programs in 39 states. The proposal, Koski said, is a direct response to community feedback that the district has received: There are very limited options for community members for early childhood care. While Koski’s been hearing about this need for the last four to five years, the district didn’t have the extra space to house a program on school grounds.
“In the past, our limitation has always been facilities, but now that we have completed or will be completing a lot of the new construction and modernization that has come from our Measure H12 bond that our community was gracious enough to provide for us, we have some kind of non-classroom spaces that will be available beginning next year,” he said. It just makes sense, he said, to identify this as the right time to bring in the service that the parents in the community have been asking for, if approved by the school board. There isn’t a price on the proposal just yet, but that information along with how much the service will cost parents will be presented to the school board at its June 13 meeting. Koski said the intent of that meeting would be for the board to make a decision about whether the district will put this program in place for the 2019-20 academic school year. Tricia Fox, partnership manager for Champions, said she wants to highlight that Discover Champions has an accreditation from AdvanceED, an organization that reviews and certifies
education programs around the world. Having spent time as a teacher and a principal, Fox said that Champions implements a bit more structure than most before- and after-school programs to keep students engaged in learning beyond traditional school hours. “The biggest thing for prospective clients to see when they come to one of our centers is the kids are fully immersed in the programs. And we also use research to figure out the best practices in afterschool care when creating a curriculum that allows students to have fun and explore their interests,” Fox said. Daily activities usually center on homework time, fitness and group games, snack time, welcome activities (journal time and daily challenges), theme-related activities (such as building bridges or whirly birds), and interest areas. Those interest areas can include creative arts or science, technology, engineering, and mathematics. Fox said Champions can provide the program with iPads, so students can learn coding or game design, all with the goal of peerto-peer collaboration. The programs are crafted to reinforce the four C’s of 21st century learning: collaboration, creativity, communication, and critical thinking. She said implementing Champions’ programs would not only be a potential
benefit to students and parents but also to the community, as there would be a need for teachers to facilitate the program. A potential local hire has to meet the provider’s licensing requirements. If they don’t meet the minimum requirements but are the right fit for Champions, Fox said the provider would pay for them to go to school to meet them. Champions has had a long partnership with Atascadero Unified School District, and the program has been beneficial for parents like Monica Baldwin. She has a fourth grader in San Gabriel Elementary School who’s been in the after-school program since she was in first grade. Baldwin and her husband both work, and she said the program made sense for her family because of their demanding schedules. Over the last four years, she’s seen how much her daughter has grown, and she attributes the leadership skills she’s acquired to Champions. “This year, she wanted to be a student representative for her class at school and she also did that student council,” Baldwin said. That kind of support for parents and their kids is exactly what Champions aims to achieve, Fox said. “We’re here to reinforce learning objectives, strengthen the community, and help hard-working families get more out of their day,” Fox said. ∆ Staff Writer Karen Garcia can be reached at kgarcia@newtimesslo.com.

Working overtime Police vacancies put pressure on SLO County departments, budgets
S
an Luis Obispo County’s two largest police departments are struggling to keep up with a slew of officer vacancies, which is straining staff and overtime budgets. In two recent updates to elected leaders, both SLO County Sheriff Ian Parkinson and SLO Police Chief Deanna Cantrell explained how challenges in recruiting and hiring officers are coinciding with upticks in retirements and departures— leaving prolonged vacancies. “Since 2011, we’ve had 140 employees retire,” Parkinson told the SLO County Board of Supervisors on May 14. “It’s been more difficult with the number of retirements to keep up.” The crunch has put more hours and responsibilities on the shoulders of remaining officers. At the Sheriff’s Office, eight deputy vacancies between the patrol and custody divisions contributed to a more than $3 million overrun of the overtime budget in the 2018-19 fiscal year. Parkinson told county supervisors that his policy is to staff all seven patrol beats regardless of vacancies and absences. He said that wasn’t the case before he was elected.
“I put a stop to that because we don’t have an abundance of coverage anyway,” he said. “It’s just not appropriate for public safety.” Last year in the SLO Police Department, vacancies forced Cantrell to reassign officers who were in special assignments, like the Narcotics Task Force and the Downtown Bike Team, to standard patrol positions. “Our officer recruiting and retention is tough,” Cantrell told SLO City Council members at a May 7 meeting. “Nationwide, it’s an issue for police departments.” The recruitment challenge has a few elements to it, officials say. One, according to SLOPD, is the increasing negative perceptions of police among young people. “The national narrative of law enforcement has been perceived negatively, really over the last decade,” said Brian Amoroso, an interim captain with the SLOPD. “We have a group of young people who have grown up where that’s what their impression is of law enforcement.” Another stumbling block in hiring is a decline in lateral recruitment. Amoroso said that established officers at other agencies are less inclined today

having success recruiting new cadets. But it’s a lengthy process to get a cadet through training and into the field. Parkinson said it can take 18 months to complete police academy and field training. “I think we’ve got some fantastic people coming in the door,” Parkinson said, “[But] most of them are off-the-street untrained. The challenge is we want to attract that threeto seven-year deputy from another agency here.” In the meantime, vacancies HIRING San Luis Obispo County Sheriff-Coroner remain unfilled and overtime Ian Parkinson (left) said a decline in lateral recruits wages continue to pile up. from other agencies is contributing to longer vacancy Parkinson said he’s working to periods as new, young deputies complete their come up with new strategies required training. to address the reliance on overtime work and to more to relocate to departments like SLO—in efficiently handle vacancies. part because of the city’s tightened purse In addition, both county and city strings around pension plans. departments said their latest labor Costly pension obligations have contracts put them in a stronger position triggered new plans and policies in SLO, for lateral recruitment going forward, so a police officer considering relocating offering incentives like relocation to the Central Coast may be looking at a packages. reduction in benefits. “Our goal is to figure out what is the “We are only bringing people in at best formula to change this process,” that lower tier [pension] level,” Amoroso Parkinson said. “Ultimately, if we can said. “With those changes in the pension save money and probably reduce burnout system, coupled with the high cost of from employees, that benefits all of us.” ∆ living, it’s causing those candidates to give some pause.” Assistant Editor Peter Johnson can be Despite those challenges, both the Sheriff’s Office and SLOPD said they’re reached at pjohnson@newtimesslo.com.

Trauma trained
R
eporting a sexual assault or rape to police is a difficult step for any victim to take. And for those who do decide to walk down the path of justice, the detectives, prosecutors, and other officials they meet along the way have the ability to make them feel believed and supported, or doubted and demoralized. Law enforcement agencies and victim service groups throughout San Luis Obispo County are hoping to improve on this experience for survivors of sexual assault. On May 29 at Cuesta College, more than 150 individuals from multiple SLO County departments and organizations will convene for a daylong training about the science of trauma and the best ways to approach and support victims. “It’s critical,” said Susan Lamont, client services director at nonprofit RISE SLO, “because if we have a survivor who’s interested in pursuing justice through the law enforcement system, they need to be respected and believed, first and foremost.” Hosted by the San Luis Obispo Suspected Abuse Response Team Advisory Board, in partnership with RISE, the SLO Police Department, Cal Poly Police Department, and the SLO County Sheriff’s and District Attorney’s offices, the training will highlight best practices in sexual assault response and investigation— including alternative reporting options
for survivors, an “opening doors” model of services, and the “start by believing” philosophy, according to RISE. Leading the training is Carlton Hershman, a retired San Diego Police detective who implemented a Sex Crimes Cold Case Unit during his career, and Dr. Kimberly Lonsway, a founding board member of End Violence Against Women International. The day will be split into morning and afternoon sessions that have different focuses. “We do the neurobiology of trauma and victim interviews in the morning,” Lamont told New Times, “and in the afternoon we break into groups.” In the small groups, participants will be exposed to real past cases of rape and sexual assault, where they will work together to investigate the incidents and then discuss the methods and approaches used. One of the takeaways from the training, according to Mark Haley, a physician’s assistant at the Cal Poly Health Center and RISE volunteer, is building a stronger relationship, trust, and understanding between victim advocates and law enforcement agents. “Both sides can hear and see that in the end, they want the same thing,” Haley said. The training comes as reporting of both sexual assaults and rapes is on the rise. In 2018, the SLO Police Department saw

reports spike 41 percent over the year prior. At Cal Poly, crimes of sexual assault or misconduct almost doubled in 2017 compared to 2015, increasing from 20 to 37 cases, according to the university’s Clery Act report. As victims feel more empowered to come forward and report crimes, Haley noted that it’s becoming especially important for law enforcement to handle those cases appropriately and sensitively. “I would say it’s crucial,” he said, “because the better experience a survivor has, in the end they’ll be in a better place psychologically and they’ll be more empowered to make a decision themselves to pursue the case. In general, the more power you give the survivor, the more likely they’ll reach a good outcome for themselves.”
Fast facts
• RISE SLO Executive Director Jennifer Adams has announced her retirement from a 20-year career in the gender-based violence field. She’ll stay with RISE through June 28. “It has been an honor and a privilege to serve the community through my work with RISE,” Adams said in a press release. “The courage and resilience of survivors will continue to inspire me, wherever my path leads.” Adams started her career with the Rape Crisis Center of SLO County in 1999. In 2013, she led a dual agency merger resulting in today’s RISE SLO. With Adams at the helm, RISE nearly doubled in size, added programs, and increased funding and staff. Associate Director Jane Pomeroy will serve as interim director during the transition time. • U.S. Rep. Salud Carbajal (D-Santa Barbara) co-introduced a resolution in Congress on May 14 to designate July as American Grown Flower Month, encouraging consumers to buy domestically grown flowers. Today, American consumers buy just 20 percent of their flowers from U.S. growers. “I have seen firsthand the value the grown flower industry adds to our economy and communities,” Carbajal said in a statement. “I am committed to recognizing their contribution.” ∆ Assistant Editor Peter Johnson wrote this week’s Strokes and Plugs.

Long overdue It’s time for the community to do something about the dangerous dunes
I
t’s long past time for the powers that be to corral the outlaw mentality at our local Dunes of Death, aka the Oceano Dunes State Vehicular Recreational Area. I’m not sure they want reform, though. Their reaction to the recent carnage is the same “look the other way” mentality that has long dominated at the dunes, despite dunes users’ many transgressions. In fact, it’s becoming evident that the powers that be share that outlaw mentality. The most recent bloodletting began on April 26, when a woman in an off-road vehicle hurtled over a 30-foot dune vehicle and died. The ATV was traveling the treacherous, shifting sands at 60 miles an hour, according to press reports, and had a child on board. The child survived. A week later another man died while trying to pump his ATV brakes at the top of a dune cliff that he clearly hadn’t anticipated. He went over, and his vehicle landed on him. Then came the shooting on May 4. An impromptu late night “concert,” booze, weapons, five people shot, one man arrested. Official statements haven’t said much about this or other tragedies other than the message that is always written between the lines of their press releases: “Move along folks, nothing to see here.” The people in charge of letting the rest of us know what’s going on at the dunes
HODIN
routinely tell us to, well, pound sand. When something bad happens, it’s all just another day at the dunes. Ho hum. The off-road vehicle playground has been in the news in recent years because of lung problems off-roaders create for nearby residents. Sand blows off the beach into their homes, and the vehicles make it worse by breaking up the crust and liberating more particles. That’s a problem, all right. But the more sinister health hazard always has been the behavior of the off-roaders themselves and the mayhem it has led to. Since the turn of the 21st century as many as 20 people have died on the dunes, and hundreds if not thousands have been hurt. The fact that little to nothing is done about it flows directly from attitudes about the park. There has always been a rogue vibe to our local off-road area. It is not like other parks that you can safely take your children to—Yosemite, Yellowstone, Kings Canyon. The off-roaders give off a “we’re going to do what we want, and if you don’t like it, buzz off” vibe. There’s a class element at play here. The park is known as “the redneck riviera,” a place where people from Bakersfield and Fresno come to play. They don’t want anyone interfering with their jollity, and they view the locals who object to their behavior, many from the pricey Nipomo Mesa, as a bunch of

hoity-toity, brie-chomping, wine-sipping snobs who can’t stand the idea of anyone else having fun. Both stereotypes, of course, oversimplify. But, as with most stereotypes, there is an element of truth. The brie and wine set has been losing badly for a long time. Consider the reactions to the recent body count. • The San Luis Obispo County Sheriff’s Office considers the shooting an isolated incident. • A park ranger’s advice to off-roaders after the deaths was to drive carefully. The parks people issued no permit for a concert, didn’t know there was one, and apparently don’t much care. • And there is Ted Cabral, a state offhighway motor vehicle recreation commissioner: “It’s time to take the gloves off” in the fight against locals. Commissioners are considering passing a “strongly worded motion” defending offroaders against the “parochial views” of local residents. Cabral was talking about the sand issue. But the message clearly applies to anything off-roaders want to do: “Back off.” Cabral and his fellow foxes are guarding our local henhouse. That bodes ill for change, and it’s easy to suppose that more people will die or be maimed or hurt at the park, possibly during this Memorial Day weekend. I’d like to suggest an alternative: Change the use of the park. Get the motorized vehicles off so that the rest of us can fish, swim, and hike without worrying about our toddlers being run over. I know, it’s an unthinkable notion. Think about it, anyway. The chief argument against change is the fact that the park is a huge
moneymaker. But what if visionaries and planners looked at the place in a different way? That piece of land is stunningly beautiful. Marketed correctly, without motor vehicles, it would bring people from around the world, and their dinero. Those who currently return yearly as part of a family tradition could still come back. After all, the key word in “family tradition” is family, not all-terrain vehicle. Those who need to get their ride on have plenty of other places. The area between Barstow and Yucca Valley in the desert is chock-a-block with off-road riding areas, to cite just one example. This isn’t going to happen soon, but it will at some point. Too many people are being hurt out there. Doctors and others have been documenting the injuries for decades. Emergency room nurses who have seen healthy young people confined to wheelchairs for life have spoken eloquently about the wasted lives. All have been ignored, and some who complain have had their jobs threatened. I’m not sure how to start a movement to change the park, but I know one way is to gather information. I would like to see the notoriously circle-the-wagons State Parks authorities and law enforcement be transparent for once. Here are some questions for them: How many people have died? How many injured? How many have sued the state, and what were the results? How do we find these people to hear their stories? Where do we see paperwork on all this? Unredacted, please. I don’t expect them to fess up to any of this, so it’s on the press and private individuals. The press may not be much help. The Tribune rides high on the apple COMMENTARY continued page 12

Consider senior housing I was pleased to read about plans for senior housing at the corner of Tank Farm Road and Broad Street in San Luis Obispo. I am a longtime city resident who loves living in SLO, but I have concerns (as I get older) that housing options for seniors here are limited. When we talk about local housing needs, we need to remember that it’s more than young families and working people. Active seniors should also be considered, and we should have a range of options and services available. I saw

Corporate greed
Laetitia Winery suing to keep the El Campo Road intersection open is a perfect example of American corporate greed, and it’s sickening! This insane intersection and some others up here on Highway 101 have always amazed me. People can say what they want about LA, but there isn’t one of these intersections down there that I can remember. Being a union man from day one, the first word I thought of when I heard the news was the word “boycott.” If for no other reason, do it for the families of the dead and injured. And then I see that the CEO of the company said that he is against the lawsuit, but, because of it, he can’t comment. What the ... ? That sounds like a politician. Give me a break. P.S. I’m not sure if I don’t like Al Fonzi or if I do like the man. He’s a very interesting fellow. Kevin Alf Lee Santa Margarita
Seeking acceptance
I just came home from the May 21 SLO Women’s March protest on the courthouse steps, and I am a little disappointed. As an “old white man” (one of four monikers with strikethroughs on the main banner), I thought I would sort of be welcomed as a sympathizer from the other side. Not so much: “male interloper,” one person said. I am an ardent feminist and ridicule my friends who talk about some man-hating
ideology that allegedly pervades the women’s movement. But I was just plain dissed tonight. Repeatedly. I’m 100 percent on your side, girls. Don’t treat me like the enemy just because I have a Y chromosome. It’s not my fault, I swear. Carry on the fight and know that I’m behind you all the way, except for the discriminators—you need to grow up. Accept acceptance even if it comes from a man. We’re human, too.

Dear Cal Poly President Armstrong
On behalf of the Republican Party of SLO (RPSLO), thank you for your decision to continue supporting the Chickfil-A restaurant on the campus of Cal Poly, and most importantly, supporting the core values of freedom of choice, speech, and association. RPSLO believes, in doing so, the university honors and does not devalue tolerance, diversity, and inclusiveness. RPSLO further believes an atmosphere of freedom, free choice, and free enterprise is most conducive to the university and to the society of which it is a part. In such a society, students and faculty are free to choose whether to patronize Chick-fil-A or not, and also whether they wish to encourage others to do so. Randall Jordan chair RPSLO

Opinion
Rhetoric&Reason
BY AL FONZI
An intellectual chasm S ome decades past, I encountered a book titled The Nine Nations of North America, which categorized Americans by region, social mores, political values, and customs. Today, Americans are “Balkanized” to a degree never envisioned by the founders. The political and social divides, while not necessarily determined by region, seem comparable to the fiery 1850s pre-Civil War rhetoric that led to war by the end of that decade. What’s different today is that state legal authority is more organized and better able to control passions. A “John Brown” would find it extremely difficult to raise a private army and attack towns or successfully conduct terrorist raids against political opponents for more than a week without being apprehended or killed. That’s a good thing, but it’s also a bad thing if that power is ever turned against ordinary citizens who simply exercise traditionally accepted rights of speech, religious worship, or political affiliation as happened a century ago. During WWI, President Woodrow Wilson (Progressive-Democrat) closed newspapers and routinely jailed political opponents to his war policies under the guise of Sedition Acts that included speech within private homes, subsequently reported to local authorities (some were sentenced to long prison sentences). Eventually Americans rejected Wilson’s
overreach and rewarded his political opponents with electoral victories. However, I fear we are returning to another era of progressive tyranny. The Trump election campaign evoked visceral hatred among his opponents, not in small measure due to his inflammatory rhetoric and the personal insults he routinely used against opponents. Conversely, traditional conservatives objecting to Trump’s style are immediately attacked by Trump’s hardcore supporters and equally despised by progressive/liberals for supporting his policies, if not his rhetoric. It’s very hard for principled conservatives to intellectually engage with either side on a host of issues without being branded with multiple epithets. Many of us increasingly find ourselves political/social outcasts, and it’s not just in America. Australians just gave a political victory to its conservative party despite polls indicating a progressive victory. Many Australians are tired of being vilified for holding “politically incorrect” views and likely lied to pollsters while rejecting a radical climate change agenda and other socially progressive policies. They voted for jobs and social stability over a decidedly urbane, elitist political agenda that would have devastated the economic/social stability most working and middle-class voters rely upon. America experienced this
with Trump’s election in 2016, but the left seems even more determined to crush any resistance to their “progressive agenda.” Examples abound, such as the House passage on May 17 of the “Equality Act,” which sounds benign but destroys women’s rights in sports, privacy, and potentially small businesses. The act would enshrine in civil rights law gender identity, thereby imposing radical changes to fundamental social relationships in society. Standing for traditional views of sexual morality would become illegal, as it is in Canada, and impose a new sexual orthodoxy. This has alarmed Christian churches, which hold to traditional interpretations of biblical values which until now have been protected under the First Amendment’s religious protection clause. The Equality Act exposes every religious denomination/ faith with criminal and civil prosecution if it doesn’t adopt policies contrary to their statements of faith in accordance with those approved by the government. Feminists are equally alarmed as stated in an article within “Real Clear Politics” by Natasha Chart, chairperson of the Women’s Liberation Front. She said, “Under [the Equality Act] men and boys [identifying as women and girls] will take away women’s small business grants, spots on sports teams ... be permitted to live in women’s domestic violence shelters ... locker rooms.” Young women working
for years in competitive sports are being side-lined as biological males identifying as female are capturing championships and accompanying scholarships to the detriment of biological females. So much for Title IX, as the Equality Act will enshrine all of this in federal civil rights law. On a host of issues, hardened attitudes are suppressing reasonable debate. Try rationally discussing climate change, and one side will yawn and the other brand you a “denier” unworthy of response regardless of evidence or severe economic consequences. The mass media often rush to accept any report predicting disaster, uncritically applauding political initiatives to “save the planet” (regardless of economic/social cost), while omitting contrary information or deliberately exaggerating the urgency. For example, The Guardian of London has directed staff to no longer reference “climate change” but substitute “climate crisis” or “climate emergency” and “global heating” be substituted for “global warming” in stories. Progressive-Democrat policies are jeopardizing America’s economic future, undermining the very social fabric of the nation, and demanding opponents be silenced.

The Shredder
WWJD?
T
o paraphrase 1 Timothy 5, a church isn’t a building; it’s the people who God has called into community … blah, blah, blah. Just don’t tell that pious yada-yada-Bible stuff to the “dogooder Christians” battling over the Bethel Baptist Hillside Christian and Missionary Alliance Church of the Perpetual Civil Litigation of Grover Beach Ain’t Never Gonna Be a Homeless Services Center of God. It would probably take my entire column to sort through the madness, but basically there’s a whole lot of unchurchiness going on in Grover Beach at a building the 5Cities Homeless Coalition (5CHC) and Peoples’ SelfHelp Housing (PSHH) had hoped to purchase with state grants totaling $2.7 million. They’re currently in escrow to purchase the property from the Christian and Missionary Alliance (CMA), a national Protestant denomination that acquired the Bethel Baptist Church in October of 2018, when it was also known as the Hillside Church, I guess. The name changed in 2012, but the tax identification number remained tied to Bethel Baptist throughout the various ownerships. Anyhow, a dude named William John Fleming, who said he’s been attending the church since 2014, wasn’t cool with the sale, so in a move I’m calling slick
as hell, he filed paperwork with the SLO County Clerk-Recorder’s Office claiming he’s the church president (Is that a thing? Church Prez?), and transferred ownership from CMA to himself under the aegis of the Bethel Baptist Church. Look at you, dude! You own a church! That’s weird, right? That’s some go into the temple and overturn moneychangers’ tables weird! Now the CMA is suing Fleming to get “their” church back so they can sell to the 5CHC and PSHH, so they can make it into a homeless services center, which the NIMBY neighbors around the church don’t want because who wants a bunch of dirty vagrants like that wandering homeless dude Jesus Christ of Nazareth stinking up their neighborhood, amirite? Jesus! What a mess! Couple of questions. Can I just walk into the county clerk’s office and transfer a building’s ownership to me? I’m asking because I have a dream of staying in every single room of the Madonna Inn, and it would be a lot cheaper if I owned the joint. Also, what’s going to happen with that $2.7 million in grants for homeless services? Will it disappear in a puff
of smoke like the $5 million grant the county had lined up in January from the state’s No Place Like Home Program, which Transitions-Mental Health Association (TMHA) had hoped to use to buy a 12-unit apartment complex in North County as permanent supportive housing for the homeless? Water into wine? Yeah, that’s pretty good, Jesus, but the county seems to be turning grant money into thin air, which is where homeless people live. And speaking of the county, how did Public Works Department Director Daniel “Colt” Esenwein, who recently resigned amid a flurry of harassment complaints filed against him, manage to stay in a position of power for a full year despite his inappropriate behavior with female staffers (Just the “cute” ones!), who—no, Colt—don’t want to “bend over and take it” or “grab their ankles,” thanks for asking. To be fair, that’s how good ol’ Colt describes his management style, but female staffers accused him of ongoing harassment, stalking, and invasion of personal space. Gee, he sounds dreamy! The county released some of the heavily redacted complaints, one of which described Colt as “an immature high school boy who likes attention but doesn’t have … social awareness.” He’s management material! Hire him! #MeToo. As far as I’m concerned, it’s about time women are able to stand up and say, “We’re mad as hell, and we’re not going to take it anymore!” However, one of our letter writers this week thinks these
“girls” may have taken things too far with their man hatin’! “I just came home from the SLO Women’s March protest on the courthouse steps and I am a little disappointed,” Bryan Parker wrote about the May 21 gathering to rally for abortion rights, which have been under attack in states such as Alabama. Pro-life Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey declined to stop the execution of convicted murderer Michael Brandon Samra the day after she signed a bill into law that would put abortion doctors in prison for 99 years, even if they performed an abortion on a rape and incest victim, because as Ivey said, “every life is precious and ... every life is a sacred gift from God”—except for that reprobate Samra! Parker went on to complain that “as an ‘old white man’ (one of four monikers with strikethroughs on the main banner), I thought I would sort of be welcomed as a sympathizer from the other side. Not so much: ‘Male interloper,’ one person said.” Damn! That’s not cool. The totally “woke” Parker went on to write, “I’m 100 percent on your side, girls. Don’t treat me like the enemy just because I have a Y chromosome. It’s not my fault, I swear.” Um, “girls”? Dude! We’re in some sensitive times, boy! I’m pretty sure most women would rather not be dismissed as “girls.” Just sayin’! ∆ The Shredder does what Jesus would do … drink wine and hang out with sex workers!

The messenger Michael Franti shares his gospel of goodness at Avila Beach
I
s Michael Franti the cure for cynicism? I know he’s trying to be. His recent documentary film, Stay Human, chronicles five remarkable people from around the world doing the right thing against terrible adversity. His new album, Stay Human Vol. II, is another collection of socially conscious songs designed to open minds and bolster spirits, and his new song and accompanying video about gun violence called “The Flower” is a powerfully moving testament to healing amid our national plague. Next Friday, May 31, Michael Franti and Spearhead return to Avila Beach Golf Resort (gates at 5 p.m.; concert at 7 p.m.; all ages; $35 general or $85 VIP, with kids 7 and under free; at Boo Boo Records and eventibrite.com). Nattali Rize will open the show. Franti spoke to New Times by phone from Corpus Christi, Texas, where he and his band were scheduled to play a food bank benefit concert—the first concert of his upcoming summer tour (a longer version of this interview is available online at newtimesslo.com). “We’re pretty excited to be back on the tour bus,” Franti said. “We’ve been rehearsing the whole time and doing pre-production for the summer, so we’re excited to get going.” If that makes it sound like being a rock star is a lot of work, Franti is quick to correct: “Well, it’s the best job anybody

could ever have. It’s an amazing thing to be able to play music and make people happy for a living, so we’re grateful. “Carl and I—Carl’s the bass player, Carl Young—we got on the tour bus yesterday for the first time in a year, and we were like, this is the best thing ever. We love it so much. He looked at me, smiled, and said, ‘I can’t wait to get going this year.’” Franti’s enthusiasm is infectious. I saw him last year playing the Thursday pre-concert before the Live Oak Music Festival, walking through the vendors’ area trailed by a dozen kids, who clearly were enthralled to see a rock star walking among them. “I go to any festival as a fan first and a performer second,” Franti said. “I love the experience of walking around and checking out the booths, checking out other artists who are performing, but the main thing about a festival is just the people who are there, being together with other people who love music and who love life and who are willing to travel long distances and maybe camp out and go to the bathroom in a porta-potty—all for the love of music. “I really love it, and you know, I’ve never been shy about taking time to hang out with the people. I love talking with people who come to our shows. I love the fact that we share common values, and the first is a love of music and people and the planet. My music has always been about how we get through challenging times, and so a lot of times when people come up to me they’ll say, ‘My sister’s going through breast cancer, and she’s

Is knowing that a weight and obligation, or is it uplifting? “It’s definitely more uplifting,” Franti said. “It’s why I got into music. I remember the first concert I ever went to was The Commodores with Lionel Richie. He ascended to the stage with this white grand piano singing ‘Three Times a Lady,’ and I remember thinking, ‘Wow, this is so great! He’s so cool! Look at him up there, and he’s singing this song I love!’ “Then when I was 15, I went to my second show, and it was a man named Linton Kwesi Johnson, who’s a reggae artist from England. He came out on stage and he read this poem, just a cappella, and it was a poem about a kid who had been arrested in England and he was writing to his mother from jail. He was arrested for defending his brother who was being beaten up by a police officer. He read this poem and then afterwards the band kicked in, and he did the song again with the music behind him. I was so overwhelmed—the emotion of this story he was telling and the way
that he presented it—that I just thought, ‘That’s what I want to do. I want to tell my story through music.’ Ever since that time, I’ve been laying into it.” You’d be hard-pressed to find a musical artist more committed to spreading positivity, which is why a Franti show is nearly a religious experience for a lot of attendees. It’s not unusual to see tears streaming down people’s faces in utter reverie. “We as a band have a goal and a vision,” Franti finished, “and our goal is to spread optimism through music, and we—every single one of us from the bus driver, to the production team, to the people in the band, to my wife and my family, our management, and everybody who works in association with us—we all have that same vision and that same goal. It’s really a group effort to make it happen. I believe in the message we put out there. I work every day to find new ways to do it. I’m passionate about it.”

Craftmakers create work inspired by wellspring theme
N
othing is tiny enough to go unused. San Luis Obispo fiber artist Kate Froman is slowly working her way through a seemingly endless supply of fabric scraps. About a year ago, Froman decided she would only work with the scraps and bolts of cotton and silk already in a stash at her studio On display before she bought The Wellspring exhibit, any more fabric to featuring art made by create with. So far, members of the Central Coast she hasn’t reached Craftmakers, will be on display the bottom of the at the SLO Museum of Art barrel, so to speak. through June 2. Visit sloma.org for more information. “I have a hard time throwing away silk, so a lot of the tiny pieces find their way into my art,” Froman told New Times. “Part of it is the ecological thing. Part of it is not leaving this stuff for my kids to deal with. Part of it is seeing what I can do with it. It’s a puzzle.” Froman’s work, along with pieces by other members of the Central Coast Craftmakers, is currently on display at the San Luis Obispo Museum of Art as part of the Wellspring exhibit. Kate grew up learning how to sew and embroider from her mom and later found her way to fiber art. “The lines are blurred now,” Froman said. “Craft makers used to not be considered artists. Like a lot of people, I have a hard time with the A-word.” Froman’s fiber art wall hangings are colorful, delicate, and whimsical.

The Downtown Paso Robles Main Street Association has been designated as an accredited Main Street America program for meeting performance standards set by the National Main Street Center, including the fostering of strong publicprivate partnerships and the active preservation of historic buildings. “These programs deserve recognition for generating impressive economic returns, preserving community character, and celebrating local history,” Patrice Frey, president of the National Main Street Center, said in a press release. “Main Street America accredited communities are part of a powerful movement of changemakers, and their dedication to improving the quality of life in the places they call home is inspiring.” ∆ —Caleb Wiseblood

UNTRADITIONAL Meryl Perloff’s artist books, like Chorus, use the traditional features of a functional boon in nontraditional ways.

LEFTOVER Instead of buying new supplies, fiber artist Kate Froman is trying to use all of her leftover fabric scraps to make pieces like A Rare Desert Bloom.
piece, What Trees Whisper, incorporates different nature print fabrics and tiny fabric scraps with “sun,” “wind,” “rest,” and other words written on them. “It’s so eclectic,” Froman said of her art. “It’s soft and free, a lot of rough edges.” San Luis Obispo artist Meryl Perloff has been a member of the Central Coast Craftmakers since its inception in the late 1970s. Her medium of choice? Books. “I’m a maker of artists’ books that focus on presenting the work as a piece of art rather than a functional book, although artists’ books use features of a traditional book in nontraditional ways,” she said. Her artist book Chorus displays a pop-up page featuring a trio of passionate singers, musical notes, and the caption “Coming Round the Mountain.” As a New Orleans native, Perloff took inspiration from her hometown in her piece, Voodoo, which opens up to reveal a classical illustration of the Virgin Mary holding baby Jesus. “Voodoo is celebrated as one of the city’s mysteries and attractions and is easily woven into the fabric of America’s most interesting city,” Perloff said. Perloff often creates her own illustrations, block prints, and collages for her artists’ books, but she also pulls images from other sources to bring her three-dimensional work to life. “It pushes the envelope of what we think of as a book,” Perloff said of the medium. “The pieces that I create deliver information as a book would, but it does so in a nontraditional way.” Perloff said she hopes that people take away something unexpected after viewing her work in the Wellspring exhibit.
ROOTS SLO fiber artist Kate Froman grew up learning to sew and embroider from her mom, and today she creates wall hangings like What Trees Whisper.
“I’m hoping it gives them an opportunity to look at things in a different light,” she said, “that it might inspire them to take a different point of view.” ∆ Arts Writer Ryah Cooley is slowly working on the craft of hand lettering. Contact her at rcooley@newtimesslo.com.

ou didn’t really grow up in the late-1990s, early-2000s if you never watched a Disney Channel Original Movie. Since Disney Channel’s establishment in 1983, the cable channel has produced television films. I often have lengthy discussions with New Times Calendar Editor Caleb Wiseblood about how meaningful, hilarious, and impactful some of these films really were. For your information, the best of these films were released between 1993 and 2003, just two years before the 2006 release of High School Musical (barf). It was a time of Airborne, Susie Q, Underwraps, Halloweentown, Zenon: Girl of the 21st Century, Smart House, and I could honestly go on for hours with how many greats there are. But the one film that stuck out to me the most was The Color of Friendship, which came out in 2000. It takes place in 1977 Washington, D.C., where Piper Dellums (Shadia Simmons), an African-American girl, lives with her parents and two brothers. Piper has taken an interest in South African

Theron). Full of good laughs throughout, with fun chemistry between our unlikely pairing of Rogen and Theron, Long Shot is definitely worth a watch but doesn’t rise to any levels of elite comedy or filmmaking. Flarsky has just quit his job as a muckraker for a Brooklyn news outfit out of moral principle, after a media conglomerate buys it out. In his better-off buddy Lance’s (O’Shea Jackson Jr.) attempt to cheer him up at a schmoozy concert, Fred runs into Charlotte, who’s the U.S. secretary of state, a 2020 presidential hopeful, and, of course, Fred’s babysitter when he was little. Charlotte, both elegant and “presidential” but at heart laid back and unpretentious, recognizes Fred and the two meet. As Charlotte plans her run for president, she decides, against everyone’s better advice, to hire the brash and unemployed Fred as a speechwriter. A romantic rollercoaster ride ensues as Secretary Field takes off with Fred and the team on an international tour to gain support for her ambitious global climate culture and begs her parents to host an African exchange student. But to her surprise, the student, Mahree Bok (Lindsey Haun), is Caucasian and not at all how she expected. The girls have a rough start at getting to know one another. For starters, Piper didn’t know South Africa had white people (shocker!), and Mahree didn’t know that African-Americans could hold positions in Congress—Piper’s dad is a congressman. This is where Disney gets a little deep. You see, Mahree and her family are well off and benefit from the apartheid system in South Africa. The apartheid system existed in South Africa from 1948 to about the ’90s; it was a policy of racial discrimination with deep roots in white supremacy. So the only encounters Mahree has had with anyone from another race is the family’s black maid, Flora. When she meets Piper’s family, she’s taken aback by their middle-class lifestyle. There’s another pivotal moment in the movie where the two experience another type of racism that makes them both rethink how to treat people from other walks of life. But I won’t ruin that for you. As Disney would have it, the girls of course figure things out, become friends, and learn a thing or two about racism and how to oppose it. When this film came out, I was 8 and wasn’t aware that racism existed, as the condominium complex I grew up in housed people from different races and ethnicities. The Color of Friendship made me realize that we’re not all treated equally. While some messages might have flown over my head
legislation. Levin tries to walk a fine line of mixing silly comedy with political story, but it so often veers into the land of the absurd. At one point, Theron is literally high on ecstasy while she tries to resolve a sudden international hostage crisis. To Long Shot’s credit, Rogen and Theron convince us with good writing and chemistry that they’re right for each other, to the dismay of her key campaign staffer, Maggie (a funny June Diane Raphael), who tries (and usually fails) to keep Charlotte focused on her presidential bid. Can Charlotte and Fred make it against all odds? That’s the tension throughout the film and what keeps us in our seats. What nearly got me out of mine was Theron’s character, whose political ambitions I found pretty unconvincing. Still, if you just go for the laughs and to see how the hell Rogen could pair with Theron, Long Shot will thoroughly entertain. Underlying the action are timely themes of sexism, media degradation, and whether authenticity can win in politics. (125 min.) —Peter Johnson PHOTO COURTESY OF DISNEY

What’s it rated? PG What’s it worth? Stream it Where’s it showing? Downtown Centre, Galaxy, Stadium 10, Park Rob Letterman (Shark Tale, Monsters vs. Aliens, Gulliver’s Travels) directs this adventure comedy about Detective Pikachu (voiced by Ryan Reynolds), who comes to the aid of 21-year-old Tim Goodman (Justice Smith), whose detective dad, Harry, goes missing. It turns out Pikachu and Harry were former Pokémon partners, and even more amazing, only Tim can understand what Pikachu is saying. I’m definitely not this film’s target audience. I don’t know anything about Pokémon. I had to ask my wife if they were the same as Pogs. They’re apparently not. Instead, they’re some kind of creatures that partner with humans to wage battles, which is apparently bad, which is why Howard Clifford (Bill Nighy) creates Ryme City so that Pokémon and humans can live in harmony. The film does a pretty good job of educating novices like me on the Pokémon basics before launching into its story about the disappearance of Detective Harry Goodman, who was investigating a secret installation that has a captured Mewtwo, a very powerful Pokémon. Tim and his father’s old partner, an amnesiac Pikachu, go in search of clues and also teamup with Lucy Stevens (Kathryn Newton), a journalism intern looking for her big break, and her Pokémon partner, a Psyduck. Tim’s warned against his investigation by Harry’s old boss, Hideo Yoshida (Ken Watanabe), but that doesn’t stop Tim from tracking down vials of purple gas called “R,” which turn Pokémon violent when inhaled, as well as an underground Pokémon fight ring in Ryme City. Then there’s Clifford’s son, Roger (Chris Geere), who may not share his father’s altruism when it comes to Pokémon. It’s a lot to process, but that didn’t stop me from rolling my eyes, fighting off a nap, and hanging onto the only shred of interest in the film, which was Ryan Reynolds’ wisecracking Pikachu. I’m sure this film was everything its target audience hoped for, but I was bored stiff. A switcheroo or two on who the real bad guy was kept me guessing, but my problem was I didn’t really care. The whole underlying premise of exploiting Pokémon simply didn’t excite me because I didn’t really find much redeeming in the Pokémon. From Lucy’s Psyduck to Lt. Yoshida’s purple bulldog-looking Pokémon, whatever it was called, they seem like jerks. And what’s up with Mewtwo? Whose side is he (or she?) on and why? And why do they keep focusing on its crotch and where are its genitals? Maybe if I had more backstory I’d get it, but it all seemed surreal and unnecessarily weird. And the end is especially unfulfilling and all too easy. There were no real stakes involved. Do you think Tim finds his dad, Harry? Will their estrangement end? Will Lucy get her big break? Will the real bad guy get caught? Of course everything will work out, which is boring! I was impressed with the seamless special effects and the Ryme City set, so it was visually arresting, but that’s not enough for me. There were a lot of kids in our screening and they seemed happy with the film, but I couldn’t wait for it to end. If someone decides to make a film about Pogs, I’ll have the good sense to skip it!

Downtown Centre Dome Karukoski (Tom of Finland, Beauty and the Bastard) directs Nicholas Hoult as John Ronald Reuel (J.R.R.) Tolkien, the author of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings, in a biopic that unravels how Tolkien’s life experiences lead to the creation of his stories. The film does a fairly decent job balancing Tolkien’s past flashbacks and present without boring the audience with too much information. Unfortunately, it’s overly predictable. We’re introduced to a young Tolkien overcome with a fever and exhaustion in the trenches of Somme during World War l. He’s a second lieutenant on a mission to find his friend in the midst of all the chaos. In these war scenes, delirium (perhaps?) drives him to see what he believes is fire from a dragon; as the gas and smoke clear, there’s the scaly creature. On this self-proclaimed mission, he’s followed by a loyal soldier (Craig Roberts) who won’t leave his side, no matter the situation they find themselves in. Can you believe that his name is Sam? Coincidence? I think not. During the gruesome scenes of death and gigantic pools of blood, we get a glimpses of Tolkien’s childhood to early adult life before the war. After the unexpected death of his mother, Tolkien and his brother are fostered by a wealthy woman and put into a prestigious boys academy.

I think Karukoski and writers David Fiennes and writer David Hare collaboratively Gleeson and Stephen Beresford do a good job of packing in as much of Tolkien’s life as they could work to effectively depict three timelines in Nureyev’s life: his poverty-stricken beginnings, in the movie time-frame, but the connections his bone-breaking training, and his fight to be made between Middle Earth and what led to free.

mother won a ticket to a ballet performance, and once he was in the crowd of attendees he fell in love with dance. After enrolling him in a dance school, Nureyev’s instructors instantly saw his talent. Nureyev was always different from the rest in all aspects, so much so that in his dancing career he challenged the norms that were the traditional positions for male ballet dancers. He wanted to be graceful, similar to the female dancers, and to do so he embodied the female movements in his dances. But during his visit in Paris, he befriends Parisian ballet dancers and a socialite, Clara Saint (Adèle Exarchopoulos), who takes him to gay bars and dinners—against the dance company’s and KGB’s warnings to stop. Fiennes does an amazing job of capturing the few dance performances we see by showing off close-ups of the dancer’s body movements and, of course, Nureyev’s intense sultry stare toward the ballet audience. I like the fact that there weren’t too many performances, as the story focused on how Nureyev became a stellar dancer. There’s a lot of Nureyev’s life that Fiennes unpacks, but it’s done in such a way that doesn’t make me yawn. If anything, it made me want to learn more about the dancer, who after defection worked internationally, was praised for his technical prowess, and later died of AIDS complications. The film is in Russian, French, and English, but the feelings between the characters are not lost within the languages. I will admit that at times the pacing seems to slow down in some scenes, but overall the climax of the film really has the audience at the edge of their seat as Nureyev learns he will not be joining the Kirov Ballet in London. KGB officials tell him that he’s to be taken to Russia. On an impulse and with Saint’s help, he asks for political asylum, a move that isn’t Cold War-fueled but rather personal. (127 min.)

GET ME SOME GETTY Built atop a hill, the Getty Museum offers incredible views of Los Angeles, not to mention gorgeous architecture, grounds, and, oh yeah, art.
The Groundlings and The Getty are two worthwhile Los Angeles destinations

SKETCH COMEDY I snapped a photo of The Groundlings Theatre’s April 6 show poster that was up in their bathroom. While the sketch-tastic show had nothing to do with attorneys or law firms, I was laughing the entire time.
hen I first walk into The Groundlings Theatre on Melrose Avenue in LA for an April 6 Saturday night show, I’m initially struck by its intimate size and feel. For an improv and sketch comedy outfit that was the springboard for the careers of Will Ferrell, Melissa McCarthy, Kristen Wiig, Jon Lovitz, and so many other greats, I guess I pictured something more extravagant. But it turns out The Groundlings’ homey vibe is one of its secret weapons, the perfect playground for its hilarious and inventive cast members to perform their creations. Here with my family over my mom’s birthday weekend, the “Groundlings & Groundlings Attorneys at Law” show has us all in stitches pretty much right out of the gate. The cast of about 10 delivers an onslaught of sketches, which come at us fast and furious with the spirited accompaniment of musicians jamming in between scenes. Each sketch shares nothing in relation to the prior, and there’s absolutely no mention of attorneys, a law firm, or court, despite the show’s title. But continuity and titles don’t matter

@getoutslo here; these Groundlings are all about just bringing the comedy. We watch a couple’s relationship fall apart over what their Amazon Alexa device is saying; an audition go off the rails for the host of America’s next hit reality TV show; a woman failing miserably (and hysterically) as a contestant in The Great British Baking Show; and so much more. If you plan to be in the Hollywood area for an upcoming weekend, I highly recommend reserving tickets. It’s a hoot, and you get a sense for why the theater
is such a respected breeding ground for future show business stars. The next morning, our crew of five decides to check out another beloved LA institution: the Getty Museum. Located right off Highway 405, pretty close to where it intersects with Highway 101, The Getty is perched atop a hill overlooking the entire LA area. Entry is free (but parking isn’t). You get to take a majestic tram ride from the parking area up to the museum itself. The center is massive and gorgeous—a $1.3 billion campus opened in 1997 with more than 1.8 million visitors each year. Art aside, just exploring The Getty’s breathtaking architecture, grounds, and views of the area is absolutely worth the trip on its own. Then, add in the countless art and photography exhibits to peruse ... and you could easily spend an entire day, or more, here. Unfortunately, I have just a few hours before I need to make the drive back to SLO. Before we leave, we check out the museum’s illustrious, meticulously manicured outdoor garden, where we decide a family photo is definitely in order. All in all, the two outings made for a rich weekend—and my mom had a blast on her birthday, which was the point all along! Δ Assistant Editor Peter Johnson is a big Will Ferrell and Kristen Wiig fan.

Cal Poly Creamery Operations Manager Thomas Johnson points out the back window at a small tanker truck. “This truck has been carrying milk across the parking lot for something like 40 years,” Johnson says with a laugh. “It barely runs anymore.” Carol Campbell, who’s finishing her Master of Professional Studies in Dairy Products Technology, quips that in the year she’s been in the program, the windows on that truck had never been rolled up. With Cal Poly stamped across the rump of the tank, the truck brings milk from cows that are literally on the other side of the parking lot to this off-loading area, where the milk gets pumped directly into the dairy through a wall. The building we’re standing in has three purposes for the university: commercial manufacturing, education, and research. Cheese, ice cream, milk, butter, and more gets processed and produced here with undergraduate and graduate students doing the bulk of the work.

Campbell is sort of the opposite. Although most students are destined to work in the larger-scale dairy industry like Lai, Campbell will be interning at the artisanal Beehive Cheese in Utah. This is career two for her, Campbell says. Career one was in music performance. She says that she knew the second career would also need to involve a level of creativity. Cheese is a versatile product, and it’s also something special that takes an investment of time and thought, Campbell says. “Artisan cheese has been my interest and my motivation since the get-go,” Campbell says. “I’m looking for just the right small place to be a big part of what they’re doing.” ∆ Editor Camillia Lanham is just a small cog in a cheese wheel.

D INE ’N’ DISH Sand and Stone
My crush on Aaron Wines started last summer. I was with a group of friends, and we decided on a whim to visit Tin City for a couple of hours before making dinner. Aaron was our last stop—it was busy, and the wineries were all ready to start closing. The guy behind the tasting room bar looked at us with wild eyes, but we convinced him that we would be easy customers and he acquiesced to our tasting requests. The winery was founded in 2002, inspired by crafting blends that evoke what petite sirah has to give. Sourcing grapes from the Willow Creek, Adelaida, and Templeton Gap districts, the winery’s portfolio is chock full of cuvées (blends) that attempt to encapsulate the best of what the west side of Paso Robles has to offer. One sip of the 2015 Sand and Stone, and I was hooked. A soft, velvety mouthful of perfection. With 52 percent grenache, 39 percent petite sirah, and 9 percent syrah, Sand and Stone showcases the vibrance of grenache and power of petite sirah in harmony with one another. It’s a marriage of epic proportions—and I know I sound kind of dramatic here, but this wine is good. Fruit-forward with notes of olallieberry, black raspberry, and little bit of smoke, Sand and Stone is juicy and bright with a smooth finish. $48 at 3050 Limestone Way in Paso Robles; visit aaronwines.com for more info about Aaron’s lineup. ∆ Editor Camillia Lanham is a sucker for velvet.

WHAT Hearing to consider a request by Diane & Wayne Moody and AT&T Mobility for a Conditional Use Permit (DRC2018-00125) to allow for the construction and operation of a new communications facility (cell site) consisting of twelve (12) panel antennas, thirty-six (36) remote radio units, six (6) surge suppression units, one (1) microwave dish, and associated equipment and hardware, all installed on a new 65-foottall artificial pine tree (monopine), located within a 25-foot by 25-foot lease area, surrounded by 8-foot tall concrete masonry unit walls. The enclosed lease area also includes a 64- square-foot equipment shelter and a diesel standby emergency generator. The proposed project will result in the disturbance of approximately 4,500 square feet (including utility trenching and access improvements) on an approximate 10-acre parcel. The proposed project is within the Agriculture land use category and is located at 10990 Bobcat Lane, approximately 11 miles east of the city limits of Arroyo Grande. The site is in the Huasna-Lopez Sub Area of the South County Planning Area. Also to be considered at the hearing will be adoption of the Environmental Document prepared for the item. The Environmental Coordinator, after completion of the initial study, finds that there is no substantial evidence that the project may have a significant effect on the environment, and the preparation of an Environmental Impact Report is not necessary. Therefore, a Negative Declaration (pursuant to Public Resources Code Section 21000 et seq., and CA Code of Regulations Section 15000 et seq.) has been issued on May 27, 2019 for this project. The Environmental Document is available for public review at the Department of Planning and Building, at the below address.

You will be bidding on a lien, not on the property itself. Placing the highest bid at a trustee auction does not automatically entitle you to free and clear ownership of the property. You should also be aware that the lien being auctioned off may be a junior lien. If you are the highest bidder at the auction, you are or may be responsible for paying off all liens senior to the lien being auctioned off, before you can receive clear title to the property. You are encouraged to investigate the existence, priority, and size of outstanding liens that may exist on this property by contacting the county recorder’s office or a title insurance company, either of which may charge you a fee for this information. If you consult either of these resources, you should be aware that the same lender may hold more than one mortgage or deed of trust on the property. NOTICE TO PROPERTY OWNER: The sale date shown on this notice of sale may be postponed one or more times by the mortgagee, beneficiary, trustee, or a court, pursuant to Section 2924g of the California Civil Code. The law requires that information about trustee sale postponements be made available to you and to the public, as a courtesy to those not present at the sale. If you wish to learn whether your sale date has been postponed, and, if applicable, the rescheduled time and date for the sale of this property, you may call 800-280-2832 for information regarding the trustee’s sale or visit this Internet Web site http:// www.qualityloan.com, using the file number assigned to this foreclosure by the Trustee: CA-18-844383-CL. Information about postponements that are very short in duration or that occur close in time to the scheduled sale may not immediately be reflected in the telephone information or on the Internet Web site. The best way to
LegaL Notices verify postponement information is to attend the scheduled sale. The undersigned Trustee disclaims any liability for any incorrectness of the property address or other common designation, if any, shown herein. If no street address or other common designation is shown, directions to the location of the property may be obtained by sending a written request to the beneficiary within 10 days of the date of first publication of this Notice of Sale. If the sale is set aside for any reason, including if the Trustee is unable to convey title, the Purchaser at the sale shall be entitled only to a return of the monies paid to the Trustee.

However, you may use community property, quasi-community property, or you own separate property to pay an attorney to help you or to pay court costs. WARNING-IMPORTANT INFORMATION 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 a 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. 1.

Rob Brezsny’s Free Will Astrology Homework: Make up a secret identity for yourself. What is it? How do you use it? Testify at freewillastrology.com. ARIES
LIBRA
(March 21-April 19): In the coming weeks, I suspect you will have the wisdom to criticize yourself in constructive ways that will at least partially solve a long-standing problem. Hallelujah! I bet you will also understand what to do to eliminate a bad habit by installing a good new habit. Please capitalize on that special knowledge! There’s one further capacity I suspect you’ll have: the saucy ingenuity necessary to alleviate a festering fear. Be audacious!
(Sept. 23-Oct. 22): In the coming weeks, I hope you’ll regularly give yourself to generous, expansive experiences. I hope you’ll think big, funny thoughts and feel spacious, experimental emotions. I hope you’ll get luxurious glimpses of the promise your future holds, and I hope you’ll visualize yourself embarking on adventures and projects you’ve been too timid or worried to consider before now. For best results, be eager to utter the word “MORE!” as you meditate on the French phrase “joie de vivre” and the English phrase “a delight in being alive.”
TAURUS (April 20-May 20): What standards might we use in evaluating levels of sexual satisfaction? One crucial measure is the tenderness and respect that partners have for each other. Others include the ability to play and have fun, the freedom to express oneself uninhibitedly, the creative attention devoted to unpredictable foreplay, and the ability to experience fulfilling orgasms. How do you rate your own levels, Taurus? Wherever you may currently fall on the scale, the coming months will be a time when you can accomplish an upgrade. How? Read authors who specialize in the erotic arts. Talk to your partners with increased boldness and clarity. While meditating, search for clues in the depths.
GEMINI (May 21-June 20): If there were a Hall of Fame for writers, Shakespeare might have been voted in first. His work is regarded as a pinnacle of intellectual brilliance. And yet here’s a fun fact: The Bard quoted well over a thousand passages from the Bible. Can you imagine a modern author being taken seriously by the literati if he or she frequently invoked such a fundamental religious text? I bring this to your attention so as to encourage you to be Shakespeare-like in the coming weeks. That is, be willing to draw equally from both intellectual and spiritual sources; be a deep thinker who communes with sacred truths; synergize the functions of your discerning mind and your devotional heart.
CANCER (June 21-July 22): “People will choose unhappiness over uncertainty,” writes Cancerian author and entrepreneur Timothy Ferriss. He doesn’t do that himself, but rather is quite eager to harvest the perks of dwelling in uncertainty. I presume this aptitude has played a role in his huge success; his books have appeared on bestseller lists and his podcasts have been downloaded more than 300 million times. In telling you this, I’m not encouraging you to embrace the fertile power of uncertainty 24 hours a day and 365 days of every year. But I am urging you to do just that for the next three weeks. There’ll be big payoffs if you do, including rich teachings on the art of happiness.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Many 18th-century pirates were committed to democracy and equality among their ranks. The camaraderie and fairness and mutual respect that prevailed on pirate ships were markedly different from the oppressive conditions faced by sailors who worked for the navies of sovereign nations. The latter were often pressed into service against their will and had to struggle to collect meager salaries. Tyrannical captains controlled all phases of their lives. I bring this to your attention, Leo, with the hope that it will inspire you to seek out alternative approaches to rigid and hierarchical systems. Gravitate toward generous organizations that offer you ample freedom and rich alliances. The time is right to ally yourself with emancipatory influences.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): Don’t wait around for fate to decide which decisions you should make and what directions you should go. Formulate those decisions yourself, with your willpower fully engaged. Never say, “If it’s meant to be, it will happen.” Rather, resolve to create the outcomes you strongly desire to happen. Do you understand how important this is? You shouldn’t allow anyone else to frame your important questions and define the nature of your problems; you’ve got to do the framing and defining yourself. One more thing: Don’t fantasize about the arrival of the “perfect moment.” The perfect moment is whenever you decree it is.

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): According to Popular Mechanics magazine, more than 3 million sunken ships are lying on the bottoms of the world’s oceans. Some of them contain billions of dollars’ worth of precious metals and jewels. Others are crammed with artifacts that would be of great value to historians and archaeologists. And here’s a crazy fact: Fewer than 1 percent of all those potential treasures have been investigated by divers. I bring this to your attention, Scorpio, because I hope it might inspire you to explore your inner world’s equivalent of lost or unknown riches. The astrological omens suggest that the coming weeks will be an excellent time to go searching for them.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): “Some days you need god’s grace,” writes poet Scherezade Siobhan. “On other days—the feral tongue of vintage whiskey and a mouth kissed by fire.” I’m guessing, Sagittarius, that these days you might be inclined to prefer the feral tongue of vintage whiskey and a mouth kissed by fire. But according to my astrological analysis, those flashy phenomena would not motivate you to take the corrective and adaptive measures you actually need. The grace of God—or whatever passes for the grace of God in your world—is the influence that will best help you accomplish what’s necessary. Fortunately, I suspect you know how to call on and make full use of that grace.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): Capricorn poet William Stafford articulated some advice that I think you need to hear right now. Please hold it close to your awareness for the next 21 days. “Saying things you do not have to say weakens your talk,” he wrote. “Hearing things you do not need to hear dulls your hearing.” By practicing those protective measures, Capricorn, you will foster and safeguard your mental health. Now here’s another gift from Stafford: “Things you know before you hear them— those are you, those are why you are in the world.”
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): “Love is an immoderate thing / And can never be content,” declared poet W. B. Yeats. To provide you with an accurate horoscope, I’ll have to argue with that idea a bit. From what I can determine, love will indeed be immoderate in your vicinity during the coming weeks. On the other hand, it’s likely to bring you a high degree of contentment—as long as you’re willing to play along with its immoderateness. Here’s another fun prediction: I suspect that love’s immoderateness, even as it brings you satisfaction, will also inspire you to ask for more from love and expand your capacity for love. And that could lead to even further immoderate and interesting experiments.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): You will know you are in sweet alignment with cosmic forces if you have an impulse to try a rash adventure, but decide instead to work on fixing a misunderstanding with an ally. You can be sure you’re acting in accordance with your true intuition if you feel an itch to break stuff, but instead channel your fierce energy into improving conditions at your job. You will be in tune with your soul’s code if you start fantasizing about quitting what you’ve been working on so hard, but instead sit down and give yourself a pep talk to reinvigorate your devotion and commitment. ∆
