Howell, coastal commissioners hit with fines for transparency violations

FILE PHOTO BY HENRY BRUINGTON

2016 lawsuit pitting transparency advocates against California Coastal Commissioners concluded last month with a combined $57,100 in fines levied against five current and former commissioners— including Pismo Beach City Councilman Erik Howell—for their failure to adhere to rules for disclosing ex parte communications. In the June 12 ruling by a San Diego County Superior Court judge, Howell received a $3,500 fine for multiple “willful” violations of ex parte disclosure laws, namely his failing to report the meetings and their details within the required seven days after it took place. Commissioner Mark Vargas received a $13,600 fine, and former commissioners Steve Kinsey, Martha McClure, and Wendy Mitchell were hit with $30,300, $2,600, and $7,100 fines, respectively, for similar sets of violations. The commissioners, who were represented by the state Attorney General’s Office, will pay their fines into the “violation remediation account of the Coastal Conservancy Fund.” Ex parte communications are when a public official meets or speaks with an interested party in a decision coming before the agency—such as an applicant on a project seeking approval from the Coastal Commission. In the court decision, Howell, a commissioner since 2014, was found to have failed disclose in a timely manner meetings related to projects between 2014 and 2016 that included the installation of a retaining wall on the coast of Malibu, the construction of UC Santa Cruz facilities, and the abandonment of an oil field in Newport Beach. Howell did not return a New Times request for comment before press time. Kinsey, from Marin County, was charged with the “most serious” violation of the bunch— failing to report a meeting with a project applicant and then not recusing himself from a

commission vote to waive a reapplication fee for the “high profile” project. Spotlight on Coastal Corruption, the group that formed to sue the coastal commissioners, initially asked the court to levy fines totaling millions of dollars—including $2.88 million against Howell—arguing they were appropriate for violations the prosecutors characterized as “crimes against democracy.” Judge Timothy Taylor, though, disagreed with that characterization and the scale of those fines. “Teapot Dome was a crime against democracy. So were the Alien and Sedition Acts. So was rounding up Americans of Japanese descent in COMMISSIONERS FINED Erik Howell, Pismo Beach City 1942,” Taylor wrote in his Councilman and California Coastal Commissioner, was one of five current and former coastal commissioners to be fined by a San Diego decision. “What happened judge for violating ex parte meeting disclosure laws. at the Coastal Commission between 2013 and 2016, the Coastal Commission’s overall structure, while imperfect, was not opining that the “part-time, unpaid volunteer” one. ... ‘Infractions against administrative law,’ commissioners are overwhelmed with their maybe, but not ‘crimes against democracy.’” workload and lack adequate support and Taylor sided with Spotlight that the resources, which leaves commission staff with commissioners, “violated the ideal of openness and transparency” but added, “no coastline view outsized decision-making power. “It is abundantly clear to the court that corridor was lost; no seabird or fish habitat was the Legislature needs to consider the current sullied; no property owner’s development rights and future viability of the commission as it is were impinged.” He scolded the commissioners presently constituted,” his ruling read. “The for continuing to botch their disclosures even court sincerely questions whether the mandates after they received a training on them in of the Coastal Act—the protection of natural August 2014, arguing that “should have served resources with due respect for property rights— as a reminder ... that their disclosures needed can be efficiently carried out with transparency to be timely, robust, thorough, and technically and participatory openness.” Δ compliant.” Taylor also teed up a scathing analysis of —Peter Johnson

Grover Beach should change how it reports use-of-force incidents, audit says

The Grover Beach Police Department (GBPD) may consider making changes to how they report incidents of officers using force after an independent audit of the department revealed that its current practice may be inflating the GBPD’s use-of-force statistics. A department-wide audit commissioned in January by the city found that the GBPD’s useof-force statistics were unusually high because the department was counting some instances where officers were not actually using any physical force while engaging suspects. California law allows police officers to use physical force when it is deemed necessary in the performance of their duties. Department policy also requires a review of all force incidents to ensure that officers were justified in

using force and that it was within the GBPD’s guidelines. Police departments like Grover Beach’s are also required to submit use-offorce statistics to the California Department of Justice (DOJ) each year. The audit stated that Grover Beach’s use of force reports were well written and appropriately addressed each incident. However, it also found the department reported that force was used in anywhere from 5.5 to 6 percent of total arrests between 2012 and 2017—nearly three times the national average. Those numbers aren’t the result of officers using force more often, the audit stated. While reviewing the department’s use of force reports, auditors discovered that the GBPD was including incidents where officers merely “showed” force. For example, an incident where a Grover Beach officer ordered a suspect to exit a vehicle with his gun drawn initiated the department’s use-of-force reporting process. NEWS continued page 6

“The consultant found this to be unusual as no actual physical force was used to take the suspect into custody,” the audit report stated. The audit stated that the department was counting these “show of force” incidents together with incidents where officers actually did use physical force, resulting in the above average statistics. The audit recommended that if the department continues to review show-offorce incidents, they should be placed in a separate category and excluded from the statistics sent to the DOJ. “The inclusion of these incidents skews the actual numbers and makes it appear that the Grover Beach Police Department is a department that is more apt to use force in arrest incidents than other police agencies,” the audit stated, “which does not appear to be the case.” In addition to use of force, the audit covered several other areas of the department’s operations, including staffing, dispatch, building and facilities operations, as well as its patrol and detective divisions. The audit, conducted by a consultant team consisting of former Santa Maria City Manager Rick Haydon and retired Santa Maria Police Chief Ralph Martin, contained 37 total recommendations for the department. The audit was presented to members of the Grover Beach City Council at a July 9 special meeting. —Chris McGuinness

GALA to make name change for inclusivity At a town hall meeting July 11, an overwhelming majority of attendees called on the Gay and Lesbian Alliance of the Central Coast (GALA) to change its name; now, the organization is starting the process. Almost every seat was filled in the San Luis Obispo County Library meeting room that evening to discuss the potential name change of the organization that’s been around since 1989. One of the commenters, Douglas Heumann, chair of Tranz Central Coast—an organization that offers support, education, and resources for transgender people, their families, allies, and the community—said GALA has had an important presence in the community for almost 30 years. Heumann served as co-president and then president of the GALA board in the 1990s. During his time he said the organization created a membership format, opened the first community center, and started the first pride festival and pride week. “So as you can see, even though I resigned the board in ’97 to attend law school, I continue to be very personally invested in having GALA be the best LGBTQIA-plus—what I call alphabet soup—organization that it can be,” he said. “Name recognition is important, but if an organization’s name is not welcoming [and] numerous people and community members do not feel included and supported, then maybe a change is an ethical and just decision.” Executive Director of GALA Michelle Call told New Times that out of all the

public commenters of the night, there wasn’t a single person who didn’t ask for the organization to change its name. “Really it reflects the change that we have already made. It’s reflective of what GALA really stands for,” Call said. What she and the board heard from the community at the town hall meeting is people want to feel a part of and represented by GALA, but the current name doesn’t do that. The following day the GALA board voted, by secret ballot, 9-1 to start the process of changing the name of the organization. Call said the board is currently forming a committee that will be brainstorming a new name and the logistics for rebranding. —Karen Garcia

SLO settles federal lawsuit with firefighters SLO city and members of its own fire department resolved a long-standing dispute about overtime pay that led to a year-and-a-half-long battle in federal court. Members of the SLO City Council voted unanimously July 17 to approve a proposed settlement between the city and 25 firefighters who filed a 2016 lawsuit accusing the city of miscalculating their overtime pay. The settlement will result in the dismissal of the case and a related formal grievance filed by SLO’s firefighters’ union, saving hundreds of thousands of dollars in legal expenses, according to city staff. “This is the culmination of a lot of hard work,” said Monica Irons, SLO director of Human Resources. The lawsuit, filed in November 2016, alleged that the city knowingly underpaid fire department employees because it failed to include cash payments they should have received in lieu of benefits as

6 • New Times • July 19 - July 26, 2018 • www.newtimesslo.com

part of overtime pay calculations. Under the terms of the settlement, the city will pay out a total of $55,058. Of that, $2,609 will be dispersed between the 25 firefighters named as plaintiffs in the lawsuit in amounts between $53 and $603; $39,650 will go toward legal expenses for those same plaintiffs; and $12,799 will reimburse the union for experts it hired to calculate the city’s liability in the case. According to a report by city staff, the cost of the lawsuit could have been far more had it continued on its way toward a trial. “The next phase of litigation presented the likelihood of drastically escalating attorneys’ fees, which collectively could have amounted to hundreds of thousands of dollars of cost and attorneys’ fees exposure to dispute what amounted to a relatively insignificant difference in positions on actual wage liability,” the staff report stated. Saving that money is even more important as the city grapples with an estimated $8.9 million pension budget gap over the next three years. As part of its 2018-19 budget, the city adopted a fiscal health response plan to address the gap. City staff said they agreed that the settlement falls in line with the goals of that plan. In addition to settling the federal court case, the settlement also includes a threeyear labor agreement between the city and the firefighters’ unions. The contract includes cost of living adjustments of between 1 and 2 percent over that time period. In exchange, employee pension contributions will increase by 3 percent over the same three years. “This is a fair and equitable contract that our union supports,” said Armando Gutierrez, president of the International Association of Fire Fighters Local 3523. —Chris McGuinness

SLO increases pay range for police chief The SLO City Council has increased the salary range for its top police position. As part of a larger vote on July 17 to approve adjustments to compensation packages for its unrepresented management employees, the council voted unanimously to increase the salary range for its chief of police by 7 percent. The increase, which will take effect in August, was approved to offset cost of living increases for the SLO Police Department (SLOPD) captains, which shrank the salary gap between the two positions. The new salary range will not result in an automatic increase to the salary of incumbent SLO Police Chief Deanna Cantrell, though it could impact future pay raises she receives via the city’s “pay for performance” program for management employees. Unlike the chief position, salaries for the captains in the department are negotiated by a union, the San Luis Obispo Police Officers’ Association. Under the terms of a four-year contract negotiated between the city and the union in 2015, members of the group, including captains, got a 2 percent cost of living pay increase in July of this year. “Those increases, along with differences in health and retirement contributions, results in compaction between the chief and captain’s total compensation,” the city staff report stated. According to the most recent compensation report from the California State Controller’s Office, the SLOPD chief position’s annual salary range was between $147,888 and $184,860 prior to the 7 percent adjustment. The annual pay for captains was between $124,306 and $160,654 prior to the July cost of living increase. Δ —Chris McGuinness

Going recreational Grover Beach’s dispensaries prepare for another ‘first’ in the local cannabis industry

rover Beach’s first medical marijuana dispensary, 805 Beach Breaks, has been open for just two months, and business appears to be booming. After a May 12 grand opening bash that drew a huge crowd, Beach Breaks manager Daniel Fried said business in the weeks since indicated that the company’s push to be in the vanguard of the city’s effort to embrace commercial cannabis had been successful. But with the fledging brick-and-mortar dispensary just getting on its feet, Beach Breaks is ready for another important change to its business model: the ability to sell recreational marijuana. “We’ll be doubling [the business] we are seeing right now,” Fried said. Less than a year after approving permits to allow four companies to operate commercial medical marijuana dispensaries within the city limits, members of the Grover Beach City Council voted July 9 to amend permits for all four of those same companies to allow them to sell recreational cannabis products as well. “If you’re over the age of 21 and have a valid government ID, you’ll be legally allowed to buy cannabis,” said Rafael Castillo, a senior planner with the city. “We’d be the first municipality on the Central Coast to have a [recreational] facility.” While allowing recreational adult use may be a big deal for consumers, it won’t cause many major changes in the dayto-day operations for the dispensaries themselves. “Now we can serve anyone over 21 with an ID,” Fried said. “Other than that? When we sell a product to medical user we will have a sticker on the product that says ‘medical use.’” Currently, only two of the four approved dispensaries are actually open for business. A few months after Beach Breaks opened, Natural Healing Center held a grand opening for its retail space on Huston Street July 4. The two

remaining businesses, The Monarch and The Milkman were still finalizing real estate transactions and leases as of the July 9 meeting, and neither announced opening dates. Even with the blessing of the City Council, Fried said Beach Breaks still needed to get permission from the state’s Bureau of Cannabis Control. That’s because the company’s state license originally only allowed them to operate a medical cannabis retail business. Until June, medical and recreational licenses were separate, and prospective businesses could apply for one or both. But bureau spokesman Alex Traverso said changes made to the regulations merged the two licenses into one that covers both medical and recreational cannabis. According to the Bureau’s data, more than 75 percent of the retail businesses currently licensed opted for both medical and recreational prior to the changes. Only 17 percent opted for a medical-only retail license. Traverso indicated that businesses that previously only had a medical license, like Beach Breaks, are required to prove the city now allowed recreational sales—and then the bureau could give them the goahead. “We still need their local approval to sell adult-use. Some jurisdictions around the state have only legalized medical cannabis and not adult-use,” Traverso wrote in an email response to questions from New Times. “So when their city [or] county authorizes adult-use, they have to get local approval to operate and then come to the state to get approval as well.” Fried said he expected to get approval from the state before the end of July. According to the bureau’s records, Natural Healing Center had also been licensed as a medical-only business. According to the company’s Facebook page, Natural Healing Center began selling recreational products as of July 19. ∆

Commentary

BY SCOTT FINA

A Mae Sai ethos What Americans should learn from the Thailand cave rescuers

he rescue of 12 boys and their soccer coach who were trapped deep in a cave in Mae Sai, Thailand, by flooding from monsoon rains in late June captured worldwide attention. “Miraculous!” was the common exclamation made in response to the news when the last boy and coach were escorted out of the cave. But I take issue with the term “miraculous” as a suitable descriptor for what occurred during the 18-day, subterranean internment of the boys and coach. Framing their rescue as a miracle does a disservice to the lesson that should be taken away from the event. That’s not to say I don’t appreciate the enormity of the challenge met by the rescuers. On the contrary, I have experience that provides me with insight into the severe obstacles that encumbered the cave rescue at Mae Sai. For several years I served as a trooper on the emergency services unit of the New Jersey State Police. Our unit was crosstrained in SWAT, heavy-duty rescue, and underwater recovery. I had my share of risk-taking during those years, and was lucky to come home after work on a few days. But nothing rattled me more than what I had to do as a police scuba diver. Most of my unit’s dive jobs involved searching for evidence from major crimes or the bodies of drowning victims. Most

were conducted in polluted waters in urban New Jersey. It was impossible to see anything in the murk a foot below the surface. We dived in two-man teams, following anchored guidelines by feel and searching by groping in the bottom muck, which was often cluttered with debris. On one dive, my partner became entangled in wire cable under 30 feet of water in a strong current, and began to panic. He relied on me to get him freed, which I did—working blindly—after some very long minutes of effort. Years later, I vividly recall the pit in my stomach when I struggled to disentangle my diving partner. I remain undecided on whether being in my partner’s position would have felt more threatening than the pressing burden I carried for being responsible to help him. Then there was a dive in a frozen lake, where we cut a hole into ice several inches deep. We again depended on guidelines, including one leading back to the hole, which was only visible from underwater if you were positioned directly underneath it. If you had a problem during the dive, like an equipment failure, survival meant getting back to the hole, which could be 35 yards away along the lake bottom, and then another 50 feet above. Collectively, these scuba diving experiences help me understand what the rescue divers at Mae Sai faced, but only to a limited extent. To reach the trapped kids and coach, the rescue divers at Mae Sai had to proceed blind, with no ability to surface if there was a problem, for far more

distanced and prolonged dives than I had ever undertaken. They then had to escort those kids and coach back along the same route. None of the people trapped in the cave had ever done scuba diving. Some couldn’t swim. Nine were under the age of 15. All were physically compromised after days of lacking light and sufficient oxygen, warmth, and food. And the rescue divers had to attempt this after their colleague, 38-year-old Saman Kunan, a former Navy SEAL and triathlete, had died trying to navigate the same route in the cave. The fact that all 12 boys and their coach were brought to safety under such circumstances seems more like the conclusion of a fictional superhero movie. But something less fantastic brought about this happy ending: a powerful ethos employed by the rescuers at Mae Sai. First, the courage of the rescue divers cannot be overstated. But if you ask them where it came from, I’ll bet every one of them will answer that they found it in their purpose; there were kids at the other end of a flooded passageway that would die if they didn’t risk their own lives and use their special skills to help them. Then there was the resolute and thoughtful decision-making steering the rescue operation, seemingly unhindered by personal ambition and ego. That leadership facilitated effective collaboration, including participation by people from several countries and cultures; international borders and political and religious ideology became meaningless. Courage, compassion, skill, and altruism. They formed the ethos that more than anything else explains

the successful rescue of the 12 boys and soccer coach. They are attributes available to human beings that enable us and our communities to achieve what appears to be impossible. Unfortunately, we Americans are increasingly leaving them on the shelf. If we had employed a “Mae Sai ethos” as a nation, we would have never allowed more than 1,800 people to be killed by the floodwaters of Hurricane Katrina, a storm we watched heading to our shores for days. That ethos would have, instead, assured that we used our abundant resources and know-how to move those people out of harm’s way. A “Mae Sai ethos” would never permit so many of us to purchase firearms fearing for our personal safety, when the profusion of guns in our country makes our general populace less safe—especially our schoolchildren. Instead, it would drive us to adopt sensible policies that would eliminate most gun deaths, and make our communities safer for all residents. And a “Mae Sai ethos” would never tolerate the separation of children from parents seeking refuge or a better life by crossing our borders. Rather, it would lead us to dismiss the groundless fear of immigrants promulgated by powerseeking politicians and ideologues, to accommodate a far greater number of families seeking asylum, and reform immigration law to better serve our economy’s need for labor and foreign people willing to provide it. ∆ Scott Fina is a Santa Maria resident and holds a Ph.D. in political science.

Opinion Reality check

I do not accuse Gary Wechter of a lack of imagination, especially after his July 12 opinion piece (“Just imagine”). I do accuse him of failing to acknowledge reality. I’ll try to keep my rebuttal to his points brief: • As Alexander Hamilton explained, our Electoral College was originally designed, in part, to ensure “the office of the president will never fail to the lot of any man who is not an eminent degree endowed with the requisite qualifications.” When they elected Trump, they just voted along party lines as usual and did not show any wisdom. They failed the American people by electing an unqualified demagogue. • In spite of a slight increase in an extremely low approval rating of Trump among black voters, Trump continues to be less popular with black people than with any other racial group. • Last I checked, a liberal democracy was vastly different than communism and dictatorship. Countries that take good care of their citizens, by having strong social supports, do better economically than countries that don’t. We are all “makers” and “takers” at different times in our lives. Corporations frequently exploit workers or “makers” by doing all the “taking.” Being a country that is a liberal democracy is (was) what makes (made) us great. We are currently ranked 48th in the world on the quality of our democracy, and we are headed toward fascism. • There are humane ways to deal with

children of people who break the law and there are terribly inhumane ways. The Trump administration chose the latter. • There have been zero terrorist attacks in the past 20 years from any citizens from the countries of Trump’s travel ban. The vast majority of our terrorist attacks come from Americanborn citizens. • I cannot see, in any way, how cozying up to Kim Jong-un and Vladimir Putin improves our financial opportunities or promotes the safety of our citizens.

Street talk Social media sound off New Times readers took to Facebook to share their thoughts about our July 12 news story, “Women’s March SLO founder announces run for Morro Bay City Council.”

Gary Wechter has a career in comedy and doesn’t know it. His July 12 letter (“Just imagine”) is too funny to be taken seriously. He thinks that a 5-4 vote on Roe v. Wade was “awkward” and isn’t binding. Does that mean that every other 5-4 vote before or since isn’t binding? Like the vote on Bush v. Gore in 2000? He asks us to “imagine if our president made friends with all world leaders.” Yes, I’m still trying to imagine that one, since Mr. Art-of-the-Deal has offended or insulted leaders from Canada, Mexico, the UK, Germany, and most of our soon-to-be former allies. When does the “making friends” part start? His rationale that “children are always separated from their parents when adults are incarcerated” to justify how we treat immigrants has me rolling in the aisles (but you can’t hear my laughter over the cries of those scared, terrorized children). He thinks we should “accept the will of the people expressed in our last election.” Fine by me, since “the people” chose Hillary Clinton by 3 million votes. I’m hoping millions more of us will be laughing all the way to the voting booth this November. Therese Solimeno Pismo Beach

Cannabis unenforced

Cannabis enforcement in California Valley is a joke. Nice article you had touting how they had busted up six whole grows—out of hundreds! It was irresponsible of the county to let all these people come invest out here to grow marijuana, just to do this half-hearted effort at eliminating it. Either allow it, or get rid of it, but right now all that’s happening is a few people are losing everything, their dogs often abandoned out here in the valley, and new grows are popping up all the time. They’re not making any dent in the marijuana growing or crime out here, just harassing a few people. Again, either allow it and keep it under control, or make a real effort to put a stop to it. Playing around is just going to keep hurting people and falsely making them think they won’t be the next targets of law enforcement. Too bad I know the growers who invested everything out here won’t be reimbursed in the slightest. Most of them were lied to. I also doubt the situation will change anytime soon. Daniel George California Valley

Appalled and ashamed The 2017-18 SLO County grand jury investigated the issue of air quality on the Nipomo Mesa and Oceano beach community. After months of work, it delivered its findings to the Board of Supervisors: The board has the authority to terminate vehicular riding activity on La Grande Tract, from which most

of the pollution comes. On July 17, the Board responded that “on La Grand Tract, county ownership is interspersed with privately owned parcels and that plotting the location of the county owned parcels and maintaining riding barriers effectively limit the county authority as title holder.” This is nonsense. The fact that it would be difficult to find and fence off county lands doesn’t in the least threaten or reduce county’s authority over its land. I attended the meeting and asked that the language of the response be changed as follows: “Yes, the board had authority to stop vehicular riding activity on its land in La Grande Tract and it chooses not to exercise it because it thinks it would be hard to find the boundaries and to protect them against off-roaders’ trespassing.” Supervisors Bruce Gibson and Adam Hill made and approved the motion while the other three supervisors did not. I am appalled that most supervisors refuse to take responsibility for the dust pollution on the Mesa and to Oceano residents. I am ashamed that those supervisors undermine the board’s authority and cower at State Parks’ aggression and contempt. Lucia Casalinuovo Oceano

A golden opportunity

On July 12, the day that New Times published its excellent cover article about Measure G (“Conflicting visions”), 26 environmental scientists wrote to Gov. Jerry Brown to point out that “limiting temperature rise to below 1.5 degrees Celsius and reducing atmospheric CO2 levels to below 350 parts per million as quickly as possible is critical for avoiding the most dangerous harms from climate change.” They noted that “California’s crude oil is among the dirtiest and most carbon intensive in the world” and pulling more oil, gas, and coal from “the world’s already developed, operating oil, gas, and coal fields” would mean a global temperature rise exceeding 2 degrees: “Thus, there is simply no room in the carbon budget for any new fossil fuel extraction.” The scientists informed the governor that “new approvals of fossil fuel infrastructure projects … further exacerbate ‘carbon lock-in’ because such projects require upfront investment, incentivizing continued operation for decades into the future. Ending the approval of new fossil fuel projects would avoid the lock-in of decades’ worth of fossil fuel production and associated emissions.” Whatever the governor does, SLO County voters are in a unique position to address this problem by voting yes on Measure G.

Opinion

Rhetoric&Reason

BY AL FONZI

What a tangled web we weave “

hat a tangled web we weave when we practice to deceive … .” so says the bard. Mr. Christie seemed quite upset at the revelation in my July 5 column (“Look behind the green door”) that his own Sierra Club and the Natural Resources Defense Council might be acting as “agents of influence” or “manipulated sources” on behalf of the Russian government. That is the characterization that the CIA would use to describe those being unwittingly manipulated to act on behalf of a foreign power, lacking malice but also victims of their own naïveté. Christie quoted extensively from the Congressional report I cited linking American environmental groups to Russian agents of influence attempting to disrupt the American energy industry and our politics at large. The report extensively details the many connections between U.S. “green groups” and social media posts opposing various aspects of our energy industry, but especially fracking of shale oil deposits, construction of oil/gas pipelines and terminals, and the expansion of U.S. crude production. Using ad hominem attacks, Christie implied the report is tainted because Republicans released it. But the FBI indictments announced on July 12 against a dozen Russian military intelligence officers alleging disruption of U.S. elections gives validation to the core issues of the March

report detailing Russians sowing discord in American energy politics. What galled Christie the most, I suppose, is that the report ties the Sierra Club Foundation to this activity with its receipt of as much as $16 million in Russiangenerated funds via financial cut-outs— making tracing contributors difficult but not impossible. The Natural Resources Defense Council allegedly received $35 million, and the Russians spent at least another $95 million doing the same to disrupt European Union energy markets via igniting public opposition to fossil fuel development along with nuclear power. I read Christie’s article several times and, while he attempts to discredit the report and sources, he doesn’t deny anywhere that the Sierra Club Foundation received millions of dollars from the Russian-backed organizations, specifically, the Sea Change Foundation. This organization, according to 29-year veteran CIA officer Ken Stiles, is linked to a Bahamas law firm that specializes in making confidential (legal) large transfers of funds without disclosing donors. The donors to Sea Change have been tracked back to the Internet Research Agency, which is based in St. Petersburg, Russia. This group has also been tentatively linked to Vladimir Putin, whose background as a colonel in the former Russian KGB in East Germany involved

similar disinformation campaigns. What’s happening in our small county is likely but a microcosm of global Russian disinformation operations against oil and gas development. Russia desperately needs high oil and gas prices to fund a massive strategic nuclear modernization that has been underway for a decade. Funding this build-up requires oil/gas prices at the optimum of $110 per barrel but they’ll settle for $80. The American oil and gas revolution, due in large part to fracking, has scuttled a major part of Russian strategic planning as they lack the resources to continue their military build-up and foreign adventurism, at least as long as we continue to develop oil and natural gas. The shale revolution has increased American production to 12 million barrels per day as of 2018, according to the U.S. Energy Information Administration, and by 2019, we will surpass Russia as the largest oil producer in the world. Fracking has also allowed natural gas production to eliminate much of the CO2 emissions that concern so many as gas replaced coal in American electricity generation. America reduced its carbon emissions more than any other nation in 2017, even as they increased in virtually every other nation. If you are really concerned about greenhouse gas emissions and climate change, I would think this might give you pause before you vote to

shut local production down. Ironically, California emissions were also down last year but not because of fossil fuel restrictions. According to Julie Cart, an environmental reporter for CALmatters, our drop in emissions was due to increased use of hydroelectric generated power thanks to heavier rainfall and snow last year, not fossil fuel restrictions. The economic impact data I used in my last column includes losses by vendors; the Nipomo refinery is serviced by more than 1,000 local vendors, and the industry cumulatively generates around $60 million in economic activity. The 200 to 300 refinery employees earn “head-of-household” wages, usually starting around $80,000 per year. I think the burden of proof remains with the Sierra Club Foundation and other anti-fossil fuel groups to prove that none of their funding is coming from foreign sources, directly or indirectly. Most of the Measure G volunteers are sincere “not-in-my-backyard” protesters; however, they are being led by powerful, well-funded groups. The Center for Biological Diversity, which has a $14 million budget and 159 staffers, is trying to destroy energy production in SLO and Santa Barbara counties. Think about that and who will most benefit. ∆ Al Fonzi is an Army lieutenant colonel of military intelligence who had a 35-year military career, serving in both the Vietnam and Iraq wars.

Opinion

The Shredder

Fake news!?! “

AL POLY PLOTS TO REDUCE WHITE ENROLLMENT,” screamed the banner across the Fox News Channel during a Fox & Friends report. What? That’s outrageous! If you cut down on the number of white students, who’s going to write racist and homophobic shit on the College Republican’s free speech wall? Who’s going to deface diversity posters? Who’s going to scrawl the N-word in bathrooms? Wait? What’s that? The entire Fox News report was fake news? How did Fox get shiny, happy white Construction Management senior Roberta Martin to appear and claim Cal Poly’s “goal is to limit the number of white students to 40 percent of the campus population?” Hmm? White people, so worried about their power position, amirite? Host Rob Schmitt began the segment in question with, “Campus craziness out West. California Polytechnic State University at San Luis Obispo is working to diversify their campus by deliberately slashing the number of white students.” Of course, a little thing called Proposition 209 makes using race as a factor in admission illegal, but for Schmitt to know that he’d need to do some reporting—you know, look shit up. It’s true the university asks applicants to voluntarily give their ethnicity so the university can track racial diversity on campus, but as Cal Poly Media Relations Director Matt

Lazier responded to Fox News, “The university has not, does not, and will not consider race or ethnicity in the admissions process.” To his credit, Schmitt went on-air the next day to apologize, where he quoted Lazier—whose last name he pronounced Lazy-er even though it’s Lazhere, which was kind of hilarious. The point is, fake news seems to be whatever conservatives don’t want to hear, so what do you make of the fact that “Fair and Balanced” and “We report, you decide” Fox News latched onto a false report that Cal Poly was “moving toward a race-based admissions process”? Apparently, since this false report feeds into Fox’s narrative of race, namely that white people are under attack, they were ready to believe it. Fox & Friends may want to review their “we report” policy and actually do some reporting before spitting out fake news their “customers” want to hear. It’s not news that Fox News peddles misinformation. The “Fox News effect,” as it’s come to be called, is the scientifically demonstrable fact that Fox News viewers are less informed about current events than people who don’t follow the news at all! Any Fox News junkies reading this? Let me rephrase so you understand: Fox makes you dumb. Dig the remote out of the couch cushion and change the

channel! And no, you probably shouldn’t eat that Fig Newton you found. Fox News watchers who saw the first report but not the retraction and apology will think Cal Poly is conspiring against white folks. Just wait until they hear that Cal Poly revoked white dude Bronson Harmon’s wrestling scholarship after he was caught on camera flipping the bird and saying, “Fuck you, faggot,” to someone recording the counter protest to a Families Belong Together march in Modesto on June 30. Yes, Bronson, you have every right to protest those protesting Trump’s antiimmigration policies, and you have free speech! Here’s your first lesson: Feel free to speak freely, but be prepared to be held accountable for your words. Way to be woke, Cal Poly! And speaking of Cal “Sure I’ll Take Your Money” Poly, did you hear the university accepted native oak tree butchers and Justin Vineyards & Winery owners Lynda and Stewart Resnick’s $2.5 million donation in exchange for naming the university’s new Center for Wine and Viticulture the Justin and J. Lohr Center for Wine and Viticulture? Yep! Jerry Lohr of J. Lohr Vineyards also ponied up $2.5 million. I got no beef with you, Jerry! Thanks for not butchering trees without a permit. Apparently, Cal Poly will take money from anybody, even Pom Terrible® owners the Resnicks! Not all students are OK with this kind of indiscriminate money grab. Remember the kids who protested warmonger Raytheon at the Cal Poly job fair. They were under investigation by the Office of Student Rights and

Responsibilities for breaking university rules for their short, non-violent protest. After a public outcry, Poly quietly dropped the “investigation.” In any case, who wants to chip in to get the Journalism Department renamed the Shredder Center for Afflicting the Comfortable? Anyone? Trust me, it’s needed! There’s lame stuff going on at Cal Poly! President Jeffrey D. Armstrong and his army of administrators seem more interested in building up the profit-generating part of campus—dorms and dining facilities—while ignoring classrooms, which are in direly short supply. I have a sneaking suspicion the upcoming 15,600-square-foot winery and a 12,000-square-foot grange hall will also generate money for the Cal Poly Foundation and Corporation—two “nonprofit” campus organizations that seem to make more and more profit each year. (The Foundation’s net assets grew $53.4 million in 2017!) Hey, last time I checked, our taxpayerfunded public universities are supposed to be geared toward getting all students an education at a reasonable price, not act like a club for self-aggrandized backpatting between wealthy millionaires and administrators who wish they were running Sony or McDonald’s instead of being stewards of our public education system. I know classrooms aren’t as sexy as an on-campus winery, but teaching still needs to happen, right? ∆ The Shredder peddles super real news. Send ideas and comments to shredder@ newtimesslo.com.

Redemption songs Social Distortion plays Avila Beach

ike Ness of Social Distortion is proof that redemption is always possible. He started his band as a 16-year-old with scant musical talent. Hard work, a lot of energy, and help from Rodney Bingenheimer of KROQ grew Social D into a SoCal phenomenon. Then drug use, trouble with the law, and homelessness nearly undermined Ness’ entire life, but he bounced back, created a successful musical empire, turned out albums slowly but never released a bad one, and now he takes artists like Santa Margarita’s Jade Jackson under his wing, nurturing her talent into a viable career. Is it any wonder Ness’ legion of fans considers him a role model? “The most common thing I hear is, ‘Man, your music got me through some hard times,’” Ness said in his official band bio. “And I just say, ‘Me too.’” Otter Productions Inc., Cali Roots, and Ineffable Music have teamed up to present Social Distortion and their Summer Road Map tour, with special guests Jade Jackson and Aaron Lee Tasjan, at the Avila Beach Golf Resort this Friday, July 20 (6:15 p.m.; all ages; $39.50 general admission at eventbrite.com). The band independently released their first two albums, Mommy’s Little Monster (1983) and Prison Bound (1988), but landed on a major label for their third, their 1990 self-titled breakout record that included hits such as “Ball and Chain,” “Story of My Life,” and their ripping cover

LIVE MUSIC

of Johnny Cash’ “Ring of Fire.” Ness, never one to rush a record out, followed with Somewhere Between Heaven and Hell (1992); White Light, White Heat, White Trash (1996); Sex, Love and Rock ‘n’ Roll (2004); Hard Times and Nursery Rhymes (2011), and is currently recording his next one due in 2019. What started as a punk band influenced by the Sex Pistols and the honky-tonk side of the Rolling Stones morphed over the years into cowpunk and a mix of rockabilly, heartland rock, and blues. Social D’s lineup has been a revolving door of talent. Original members Rikk and Frank Agnew and Casey Royer ended up in the Adolescents. Brent Liles left for Agent Orange. In fact, there’re 21 past members of Social D. The one constant is Ness, who continues to write hard luck tales of love and loss and lessons learned. Forty years later, we’re still listening. “I write songs for myself, and I hope that other people will like them too,” Ness added. “I think every record you make is showing people what you’ve learned over the past few years. It’s showing people, ‘This is what I know.’”

Avalanche of entertainment

The California Mid-State Fair is upon us, which means that over the next 11 days, you’re going to have a lot of concerts to choose from if you’re willing to brave the heat, crowds, and cost! The Mid-State Fair is so all-consuming that Numbskull and Good Medicine Presents are taking two weeks off, and venues like the Fremont only have a couple of competing shows.

“While My Guitar Gently Weeps”—one of the website’s first viral videos. “At the time, I didn’t even know what YouTube was,” Shimabukuro said in press materials. “Nobody did, especially in Hawaii. But I had some friends who were going to college on the mainland and they sent me a link to the video. By the time I saw it, it already had millions of views. My name wasn’t even on it then. All it said was ‘Asian guy shreds on ukulele,’ or something like that. That’s what opened up the doors to touring in North America, Europe, Asia, and beyond. It was a big turning point for me.” Shimabukuro upends traditional notions of what a ukulele can do, and like Nashville Sessions, he’ll be performing with two accompanists, bassist Nolan Verner and guitarist Dave Preston, playing music from his albums Live in Japan (2015) and Travels (2015), favorites from his 15-year career, and several songs from Nashville Sessions. Also this week at the Fremont, see Hobo Johnson on Wednesday, July 25 (8 p.m.; all ages; $22 at eventbrite.com). The alternative hip-hop artist Hobo Johnson is Frank Lopes Jr., and if you’re wondering about his stage moniker, when his debut was released in November of 2017, he was living in ’94 Toyota Corolla. Check out his charmingly weird “Peach Scone” video he recorded for NPR’s Tiny Desk Contest. PHOTO COURTESY OF KAYOKO YAMAMOTO

More music … Tipsy Gypsies play the next Concerts in the Plaza show on Friday, July 20 (5 p.m.; all ages; free). “This is one of our favorite shows of the year,” the band said in an email. “You know you want to strut your new dance moves.” They’ll also play a fundraiser at and for the Guadalupe Dunes Center on Saturday, July 21 (5 p.m.; all ages; $75 at eventbrite.com). “The Dunes Center invites you to an exciting, once-in-a-lifetime experience to commemorate the unveiling of the most recent artifacts excavated from Cecil B. DeMille’s movie set site,” they added. “Festive 1920s period attire encouraged.” Back Bay Betty is hosting a fundraiser for Options Family of Services at their Barefoot on the Green Concert at Sea Pines Golf Resort on Saturday, July 21 (2 to 6 p.m.; all ages; free, but donations welcome). This local nonprofit “provides services in residential living, community integration, supported independent living, and vocational training to individuals with head injuries, intellectual disabilities, hearing loss, autism, and other neurological impairments,” according to organizers. Festival Mozaic is bringing classical pianist Christopher O’Riley, host of NPR’s From the Top, to the Cuesta College CPAC next Thursday, July 26 (7:30 p.m.; all ages; $35 to $75 at (805) 781-3009 or online at festivalmozaic. com), but instead of performing a typical classical repertoire, O’Riley will be playing the music of Radiohead, a British experimental rock band perhaps best known for the song “Creep” and albums such as Pablo Honey, OK Computer, and Kid A. He may also cover Tori Amos, Tears for Fears, and Elliott Smith. The music will be accompanied by projections of algorithmic video art by artist Bryn Forbes. ∆ Keep up with New Times Senior Staff Writer Glen Starkey via Twitter at twitter. com/glenstarkey, friend him at facebook. com/glenstarkey, or contact him at gstarkey@newtimesslo.com.

Uke master and a hobo Ukulele sensation Jake Shimabukuro has become a Central Coast favorite, and he’s swinging through town again this Sunday, July 22, to play the Fremont Theater (9 p.m.; $30 to $35 at eventbrite.com). His most recent album, Nashville Sessions (2016), rose to No. 3 on the Billboard Contemporary Jazz Albums Chart, and he’s been touring non-stop ever since. The Hawaiian-born virtuoso came to prominence starting in the early 2000s in Hawaii and Japan, and then internationally in 2006 with the release of his YouTube rendition of George Harrison’s

Emily Gui explores domestic space through cyanotype prints and photographs in Dwelling art show

PHOTOS BY ASHLEY LADIN

ay Area artist Emily Gui believes blue is an integral part of her identity: She reads books about blue, searches for the color in her daily life, and spends her time reflecting on both the familiarity and mystery behind the hue. She is also interested in how we come to inhabit and know the different spaces we call home. After Exploring cyanotype having lived in Massachusetts, New Emily Gui’s exhibit, Dwelling, is on display at Cuesta York, and California, she is well College’s Harold J. Miossi Gallery until July 22.

Miossi Gallery through July 22— Gui focuses on both her fascination with blue and how we come to embody and experience domestic spaces. All of Gui’s works are created with cyanotype, a photographic process created during the 19th century. Cyanotype is a twopart chemical mixture that is sensitive to CYANOTYPE IN SLO Dwelling is ultraviolet light, or sunlight.

The pieces are intended to feel familiar and foreign all at once.

Cyanotype was also the first process used for architectural blueprints, an appropriate medium for works grounded in the idea of home. “For me it has a really interesting history, but it’s also a process that is very fluid and flexible, yet hasn’t been explored too much in the contemporary art world,” Gui said. “It’s inspiring because it feels like both uncharted territory, but also rich with history at the same time.” This balance of known and unknown is essential to Dwelling. Six collage pieces in the exhibit create fictional spaces by combining existing objects. All the photos in the collages were taken from three specific locations, 500 Capp Street in San Francisco (the former home of conceptual artist David Ireland, which is now a museum), Ikea, and junk stores. “I think it’s fun to imagine which parts of only hidden connection in Dwelling. Walking the pieces are from a museum, which parts through the gallery door, a paragraph hangs are coiled up mattresses or a weird bin of on the closest wall, showcasing the first few plastic pieces from Ikea, and which parts are considered junk and just thrown out,” Gui said. sentences of a longer essay by Amelia Marini.

gallery to consider each piece. “I like to think of it as little moments that a visitor can kind of float around the gallery and have a small experience in each place,” Gui said. “I’m really interested in perspectives and visitors viewing the installation from different perspectives.” In this way, the visitors begin to inhabit and dwell in the gallery themselves, shifting their own thoughts as they go. Through both embodying the gallery and viewing the pieces, Gui creates an opportunity for visitors to reflect on the idea of space overall. “If anything I hope it focuses our attention for a moment on how people embody space— just generally—and in that sense how important it can be and how it defines our experiences and memories.” ∆ Editorial intern Ashley Ladin thinks cyanotype is about to blow up in the art world.

Just as you like it Central Coast Shakespeare Festival starts off strong

he enchanting outdoor setting of a small valley in San Luis Obispo surrounded by oak trees, with a beautiful sunset gradually fading into the night sky, added to the charm and magic of the evening at the opening night of the Central Coast Shakespeare Festival at Filipponi Ranch on July 12. This year’s offering of Shakespeare’s classic romantic comedy As You Like It offers a fantastic experience that everyone can enjoy. The bard’s play is a hilarious tale of cousins seeking freedom, love, and companionship, in spite of their feuding families. It is made complete in the way typical of a Shakespeare classic, with magical forests, royalty, fools, and love at first sight. The Central Coast Shakespeare Festival repertory company has executed it brilliantly, thanks in large part to director Cynthia Totten and the very talented actors in the show. The Duchess Senior (Kate Kravets) has been usurped and exiled to the forest of Arden, along with much of her court, by her sister Duchess Frederick (Krystal Kirk). Now Duchess Frederick threatens her niece Rosalind (Megan Schreiber) with exile as well. However Frederick’s daughter Celia (Kristie Siebert), unable to live without Rosalind,

decides to join her in exile, so they run away together into the forest. Rosalind and Celia take with them their money and a fool (Mark Klassen) from Duchess Frederick’s court. But alas, Rosalind falls in love with Orlando (Alex Guersman), son of an enemy family. Things grow more complicated when Rosalind, dressed as a man to avoid being stopped by bandits, meets Orlando in the forest. She discovers he loves her too and proceeds to convince him she can cure him of his love if he pretends that she is Rosalind (which unbeknownst to him she really is). The play is amazingly executed, showing the conflict between families and love between cousins, sisters, brothers, and couples. As You Like It throws you right into the story, and the actors are your guides on this magical, chaotic journey. Screiber and Siebert play an important part in this as they bring a wonderful emotion that comes with their characters’ deep connection to each other and their inability to live without the other. While not everything wraps up neatly

like in so many other Shakespeare plays, As You Like It ends on a beautiful note, with well-rounded relationships, great humor, and enjoyable Shakespearean insults—like “motley fool,” and “being old thou canst not guess.” It also offers great character development, including a redemption arc for one character in particular. The show also holds some of the most loveable characters you’re likely to meet, a depressed lord (Gryphon Storm) in the company of the exiled duchess, and a swooning shepherd (Robert Kinner) in love with a girl (Madeline Whalen) who it seems will never love him back. This supporting group brings comedy and brilliance to the stage, and although they’re not the main characters, they are some of the funniest. While the feuding families do not exactly find peace with each other, they do have a level of resolution that ends the play on a light, happy note. The play is done in a unique way, which shows more of the woman’s side to being in love, and the extreme lengths that she will go for love and the actresses bring that forth in their different characters beautifully. After all, as the fool in As You Like It says, “We that are true lovers run into strange capers.” ∆ New Times editorial intern Delany Burk is off in a magical forest.

Split Screen PHOTOS COURTESY OF RAW

Stranger than fiction I n this truth-is-stranger-than-fiction documentary directed by Tim Wardle, in 1980, three 19-year-old strangers discover they’re identical triplets separated at birth. Their unlikely reunion leads to notoriety, but as they learn more about the circumstances of their separation, questions arise involving ethics and human nature. (96 min.)

Glen This deftly constructed documentary weaves a tale so inexplicable and unlikely that if it were fiction, I’d condemn it for being too outlandish and ridiculous. Bobby Shafran heads off to community college and is surprised that everyone he meets greets him like an old friend, smiling, waving, asking him how his summer was. People keep calling him Eddy, and he soon discovers that he’s got a doppelganger. A friend of Eddy’s puts the two on the phone together, and they discover they’re both adopted and both have the same birthday. In short order, Bobby’s reunited with his brother, believing they were twins. The feel-good story becomes even harder to believe after Bobby and Eddy’s story winds up in the news, and then a third brother, David, comes forward. The three are instant celebrities. They wind up on talk shows, in papers and magazines, and people marvel at how similar they are even though different families raised them. Their speech patterns, mannerisms, even their preferred cigarettes are eerily similar. Even more important, they’re delighted to reunite—long-lost brothers together again. If that were the whole story, that’d be amazing and worthy of a

documentary in and of itself, but as the brothers—and their respective parents— look deeper into the circumstances of their separation, things take a dark turn. I went into the film being aware of the story, but I have a feeling it may have been a different viewing experience if I’d known nothing about it. I don’t want to ruin the surprise, but it’s pretty hard to talk about the film without revealing some of the details. Spoiler! The triplets were part of a larger experiment about nature versus nurture, an experiment that has serious ethical flaws. Anna The triplets’ story is unbelievable, but also just one piece of a puzzle that continues to unravel. When you start to see what’s behind the picture of three strapping 19-year-olds with the same smile and same catcher’s mitt hands, the sweet story of three reunited brothers becomes so much more. Because the study the brothers were subjects of is so closely guarded and whose results have never been published, you start to wonder if the experiment is anything more than a botched scientific study that hurt a lot more than it helped. What could the boys’ lives been like if they would have been allowed to know each other or grow up together? We’ll never know because the powers that be decided differently. The story’s as frustrating as it is heartwarming; the love the brothers have for each other is constant, but their lives and relationships are far from paradise. Still battling a system of secrets, the web of those affected by this social experiment grows as victims of it continue to probe. While nature might dictate certain similarities, the most interesting thing about the three is their differences. Each brother grew up under different circumstances socio-economically, and their families were told they were just part of a study on adopted children, and they would be studied and tested over the years. The way they found each other sounds like a set-up for a cheesy bro film, but it’s all too real to the people living it. Glen The documentary uses archival footage of the brothers’ media tour, old family photos and films from their

childhood, re-creations of events using actors, and contemporary interviews with those involved who are still alive. Combined, it all creates a very full and interesting depiction of events. The recreations simply evoke events without showing the actors’ faces or having them read lines. Instead, narration tells the story. The triplets were just one of several sets of twins used, and it’s not clear if there are more divided siblings out there awaiting reunification. The fact that the study’s results were never published suggests to me that its findings were inconclusive. The researchers may have been trying to determine the effects of different parenting styles or economic situations, but there were simply too many uncontrollable variables, and it could just as well have been a study on the unknown psychological damage caused by separating twins. The researchers and subjects were all Jewish, and the subjects all came from the same New York-based Jewish adoption agency. “Nazi shit” is how one of the brothers describes these so-called experiments. There’s been a fair amount of research on the effects of adoption itself, and books like Primal Wound talk about some of the psychological ramifications of being separated from a mother at an early age. As an adoptee myself, I’d much rather be placed with a family that wants a child than left with a mother that doesn’t, but I’m pretty sure these various separated twins would have rather been adopted together than placed in different homes. To me, that’s the real tragedy of Three Identical Strangers. Anna Twins have such an innate bond; it is heartbreaking to think of these three

Downtown Centre, Sunset Drive-In, Stadium 10, Park, Galaxy Peyton Reed (Bring It On, Yes Man, Ant-Man) directs this next entry into the Marvel universe set after the events of Captain America: Civil War.

THREE IDENTICAL STRANGERS

Chalk this film up as another serviceable action comedy with enough derring-do and laughs to make a trip to the theater worthwhile. As a character, Ant-Man is certainly a lot more fun than dour Batman or goody-two-shoes Superman—he’s fallible, irreverent, and generally loveable, in part because he’s trying so hard to be a good dad to Cassie (Abby Ryder Fortson). The running gag is Scott is under house arrest for two years because he joined Captain America to save the world in Germany, breaking international accords. Superheroes may save the day, but they leave a wake of destruction too, and Scott must remain housebound with an ankle bracelet, under the watchful eye of FBI Agent Jimmy Woo (Randall Park, at his deadpan funniest).

Woo is always one step behind Scott, and his bits are even funnier than the three hapless thieves-turned-security experts— Luis (Michael Peña), Dave (Tip “T.I.” Harris), and Kurt (David Dastmalchian)— who tried to rob Dr. Pym in the first AntMan film and now run a security company. In addition to dealing with Ghost, Scott and company have to watch out for Sonny Burch (Walton Goggins), who like Ghost is desperate to steal Pym’s technology. Meanwhile, Pym now believes his wife Janet Van Dyne (Michelle Pfeiffer), who’s been lost in the “quantum realm” for 30 years, is alive, and that it may be possible to rescue her. Rudd is particularly suited to the character. He’s sort of a hangdog everyman, but he’s also funny, charming,

boys together for the first six months of their lives and then pulled apart. What psychological damage was done just from that scarring event? Author Lawrence Wright is an interesting voice in the film, and a key player in uncovering the truth of the study and the scope it took. While the brothers were fast friends as soon as they met, the reality of not being raised together and knowing each other for the first 19 years of their lives plays out in a less fairy-tale way. Because they grew up separately, the nuances siblings typically know about each other are not there—different ideals, work ethics, and life trajectories lead to inevitable conflict, and the reality that perhaps differences outweigh similarities comes into play. It may not be the story that sold newspapers and booked talk shows, but it’s certainly a more intricate and interesting perspective on the reunion. What the researchers’ end goal was, is still muddy, and even the real reason behind the study is still unclear. Was it all about seeing nature versus nurture? Many of the birth mothers involved in the study had some mental health issues; did that play a role in the children being used for the experiment? Amazingly, the study and documentation is still locked away and difficult to obtain, even for the unknowing participants now finding out the truth. It’s a truly fascinating tale just on the surface, but what is uncovered as the documentary plays out is almost unbelievable. This is a film I’ll be thinking about for days, and the story is one I’ll never forget. Δ Split Screen is written by Senior Staff Writer Glen Starkey and his wife, Anna.

REVIEW SCORING FULL PRICE .... It’s worth the price of an evening show MATINEE ........ Save a few bucks, catch an afternoon show RENTAL .......... Rent it STREAMING.... Wait ’til Netflix has it NOTHING ........ Don’t waste your time and good looking enough to be a credible love interest to Hope. Yes, he seems to screw things up over and over again, but his heart is in the right place. Lilly as Hope is much more competent than Scott, and a strong female character in a superhero movie is always a welcome respite from the boys’ club. There’s some nifty age-reducing CGI for the backstory about Pym and his wife Janet—both are made to look young again. It certainly adds to the realism of the prestory, in which Pym and Janet as Ant-Man and The Wasp disarm a Soviet nuclear missile heading to the U.S. The whole quantum realm thing, however, feels like a lot of nonsense. There’s no mention of how Janet survived for 30 years shrunken to subatomic size, what she ate, what

continued to power her superhero suit, etc. This is definitely the sort of story you don’t want to think too hard about because it’s silly and absurd. But when the fists are flying or the cars are racing, moving from super small size to super big, it’s best to disappear into the moment and go with it. (118 min.) —Glen Starkey

What’s it rated? PG-13 What’s it worth? Full Price Where’s it showing? Galaxy From writer/director Brett Haley (And Then I Go, The New Year) and Writer Marc Basch (I’ll See You In My Dreams) comes Hearts Beat Loud, a film about widower and aging Brooklyn hipster Frank (Nick Offerman, Parks and Recreation, The Hero) starting a band with his teenage daughter Sam (Kiersey Clemmons, Dope) just before she leaves home to attend college in California. When a song of theirs finds success online, it complicates Frank’s attempts to let go of his dreams of stardom and allow his daughter to find her own path in life. This heart-warming indie flick is exactly what you need this summer. Seriously, go to the theater now. I’ll wait. Wasn’t that lovely? From the acting of the star-studded cast Offerman, Blythe Danner (Husbands and Wives), Toni Collette (Little Miss Sunshine), and Ted Danson (The Good Place, Body Heat), to the musical performances (and references and soundtrack), and the use of imagery and subtle moments to tell a story, Hearts Beat Loud is a nuanced coming of age story—for both father and daughter. After owning a record shop for 17 years, Frank, who is about to become an empty nester with his daughter Sam leaving for UCLA to study to become a doctor in the fall, feels that it’s time for a change, but he’s not sure what to do exactly. He also can’t let go of the dream of making it big in music, back from the days when he and his late wife had a band together. So naturally when he and Sam produce a song that is pretty bitchin’, he races to put it on Spotify without telling her. When their song does unexpectedly well, it puts Sam in a place of feeling like she has to choose between music and creativity and medicine and stability. Offerman as Frank is simultaneously burnt out on the hardships of his life—losing his wife young, raising his daughter alone, caring for his senile mother, and trying to sell records for a living in the age of iTunes—and also unbelievably sweet as a loving, goofy father to Sam. While Sam gets ready to leave the only home she’s ever known, she also ends up falling in love with a girl, Rose (American Honey), a young artist she meets at a gallery. The beautiful thing is that the movie (and the other characters in it) doesn’t make a big deal about Sam being a lesbian. Instead, it’s presented simply as a young person falling in love for the first time, weeks before she has to move to the other side

It’s been more than a decade since the Incredibles first burst onto the scene and delighted audiences with its unique nostalgia drenched take on what was then just an emerging powerhouse genre in contemporary cinema And while the film may be a shade darker than the first iteration, this new installment delivers on just about everything it promises and should leave families entertained until the next chapter arrives in theaters (which hopefully comes sooner than a decade and a half). I also wanted to take a minute to commend Bird’s choice to leave cell phones out of the picture, allowing his film to flex its muscles without pocket-sized distractions. It truly speaks to the traditionalist bent of the series, which seems to draw from 1950s era super hero shows and comics, as much as even earlier, “Golden Age” science fiction classics. Bird gives audiences a glimpse of how his generation and those before him viewed the future, and while those dreams may be dated, they still come across as new, exciting, and utterly unique, and that’s pretty incredible.

The Palm RBG is a must-see documentary chronicling Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s improbable life and career, superbly highlighting her heroic litigation in the 1970s to overturn laws that discriminated by gender, her tenure on the Supreme Court that’s been defined by her scathing dissents, and the ways in which she’s inspired a new generation of women, becoming a cultural phenomenon at the ripe age of 85. Beyond those highlights, RBG offers a poignant portrayal of Ginsburg as a person, her reserved and steely yet sweet temperament, and her genuinely beautiful marriage. Filmmakers Betsy West and Julie Cohen really capture Ginsburg’s humanity through interviews with her, her friends, and family members, which add a valuable layer of depth to the documentary. RBG begins and ends with exploring her legacy, particularly among the newest generation of Americans. As the Supreme Court turned more and more conservative in the early 2000s, Ginsburg’s dissenting opinions became her signature and drew attention from young progressives. At 85 years old today, her spunk and sharp intellect are widely adored. T-shirts labeled “Notorious RBG” have become a hit, and goofy web images with her face imprinted on various superheroes have gone viral on the Internet.

SORRY TO BOTHER YOU

What’s it rated? PG-13 What’s it worth? Matinee Where’s it showing? Downtown Centre A newcomer to big productions, Boots Riley directs Lakeith Stanfield (Get Out, Atlanta) as Cassius Green, a black man who picks up a telemarketing job while trying to make ends meet in an alternative present-day Oakland. Green promptly learns that he can make exponentially more sales by using his “white voice” over the phone, which quickly helps him rise up in the company and discover harrowing truths about big business. Green is a relatable character—tired with his life of perceived mediocrity, he struggles to find meaning and desires to move up in the world. In the beginning of his telemarketing career, he befriends a protest-hungry coworker Squeeze (Steven Yeun), who rallies the whole office together in an attempt to unionize. However, once Green shows promise and is promoted to power caller, the telemarketing A-team that is almost stuff of legend, he stops fighting the power and starts to become it. Once a power caller, Green’s life radically shifts. Moving out of his uncle’s garage-turnedbedroom, he and his girlfriend, Detroit (Tessa Thompson), upgrade to a stylish apartment in a nice part of the city. Unfortunately, Green’s new job tests his moral compass and causes a rift in his relationship with the much more radical Detroit. Toward the end of the film, a shocking twist reveals just how unethical Green’s line of business is—the absolute absurdity of it rendering the rest of the film’s oddities completely tame. While some jokes and scenes fall flat, there are plenty of memorable moments throughout the film. A lot of the scenes have an almost SNL-skit quality to them but are executed in a more mature way. From Detroit’s performance art that involves being pelted by clunky phones and balloons of sheep blood, to an uncomfortable party where Green is forced to rap for an oblivious crowd, the entire film is purposefully and smartly unsettling. Most notably (and contrary to the title), Sorry to Bother You is an aggressively unapologetic take on race and capitalism in America. Boots’ satirical writing is oftentimes more thoughtprovoking than traditionally humorous, resulting in a movie that conjures up more knowing smirks than actual laughs. This isn’t a film for casual moviegoers who are just looking for a way to pass the time before dinner. It’s conceptual, whacky, and challenges the viewers’ perceptions of the world both inside and outside the screen. However, if you’re hungry for original satire and don’t mind sticking with a film through some disturbing turns, Sorry to Bother You is a worthy choice. (105 min.) —Ashley Ladin

THREE IDENTICAL STRANGERS

Go ALL In

JUSTICE Robert McCall (Denzel Washington) serves an unflinching justice for the exploited and oppressed in The Equalizer 2. It’s easy to dismiss Fred Rogers as “just” a children’s TV host, and a sappy, low-budget one at that, but this documentary reveals just how deeply he cared about children; how hard he worked at helping children through topical issues such as Robert Kennedy’s assassination, divorce, and war; and how seriously he took his role as host of positive children’s programming as foil to what he saw as bad role modeling and encouragement of humanity’s baser instincts in other kids’ programs. This documentary mixes archival footage of his show both off screen and on; interviews with those who knew him and were part of his show such as his wife Joanne Rogers, and members of his cast such as Betty Aberlin (Lady Aberlin) and François Scarborough Clemmons; and particularly memorable guests such as Yo-Yo Ma and Koko the sign language gorilla. There’s even some animation to help illustrate some of the narration about his life. Though I watched Mr. Rogers’ Neighborhood as a kid, I really don’t remember much of it, perhaps because Rogers was never heavyhanded or didactic. His main message was love and acceptance. He wanted each child to know he or she was loved and capable of loving. He

t’s a rare thing—watching Gandhi fight crime with George Washington Carver while the two battle the latter’s talking anthropomorphic peanut (that’s armed with a machine gun and diabolical monocle, by the way). But this is Clone High and so the extraordinary and outlandish are routine. I mean, the show is about a bunch of famous historical figures that the U.S. government dug up, extracted their DNA (a la Jurassic Park), and made into modern day, awkward high school teen clones.

CLONED CONCEPT MTV’s Clone High follows the lives of high-school aged clones Abe Lincoln, JFK, Gandhi, Joan of Arc, and Cleopatra.

also wanted kids to know that whoever they are, that’s good enough. It’s about as close to Jesus’s message as you can get, but ironically it was a message that led to backlash by—get this!—conservatives who argued Rogers created a generation of entitled brats. The “God Hates Fags” Westboro Baptist Church considered Rogers—an ordained minister, by the way—an enemy too. They actually protested Rogers’ memorial service. As far as I’m concerned, that’s a ringing endorsement! He’s rankling the right hides, but it’s hard to believe such a gentle, sweet, loving person could be so polarizing. Maybe it was simple nostalgia or being warmed by his message, but this documentary had me choked up throughout. Seeing Mr. Rogers gaze with love into a learning disabled child’s eyes, watching him invite AfricanAmerican cast member François to soak his feet with him in a child’s wading pool during a time when whites and blacks didn’t swim together, or seeing Rogers channel the empathic tiger sock puppet Daniel just got me. It’s not like Rogers was without fault. When he learned that François was gay, that was something that needed hiding for fear it would

So again, while some shows may dabble in the absurd, Clone High is swimming in it. The scene referenced above is from the show’s fourth episode, “Film Fest: Tears of a Clone.” It’s your typical high school film festival, except for the action movie produced, directed, and starring Gandhi and Carver, oh and Abe Lincoln’s sports drama about a giraffe playing football. I guess I shouldn’t forget about Joan of Arc’s black and white avante garde film that reveals her secret love for Abe (spoiler alert: only the clone of Sigmund Freud understood it). I also probably should mention Cleopatra’s—yes, that Cleopatra—epic about how hard it is to be perfect and pretty. I have a lot of thoughts about Clone High, the cartoon series backed by MTV for just one season before it was taken off air despite critical acclaim. The show never quite captured audiences’ hearts and souls the same way it did with professional TV viewers, and a few characters, such as Gandhi, were greeted controversially. Or in his case, with hunger strikes stemming from outrage by the show’s depiction of the Indian activist as a hard-partying teenaged horndog. Even though we were only graced with 13 episodes (11 of which actually made it on air) before it was canceled, Phil Lord and Christopher Miller’s (21 Jump Street, The Lego Movie) Clone High is probably one of the last great ’90s-style high school TV shows and succeeds because it unabashedly parodies every single one of them. Each episode begins with Will Forte (MacGruber, The Last Man on Earth) informing the audience that tonight’s iteration would be a “very special one.” This formula of the angsty cloned teens dealing with a specific social issue such as how to accept a classmate with ADD (Gandhi), dealing with the death of friend (a very graphic one by Ponce de Leon), or whether or not to smoke raisins

undermine his program, but Rogers was right on race and right on inclusion of disabled children during a time before such kids were mainstreamed in public schools. It’s also amazing to see Rogers go before congress and argue for the worth of public television. It’s now decades later, and our current president seems bent on dividing our country by race and stripping federal funding from the arts, NPR, and PBS. This documentary is a reminder that there was a tireless champion of tolerance and inclusivity. We could certainly use that again. What makes the film even more poignant is its depiction of Rogers at his lowest. Looking at our culture today, it’s clear his message didn’t prevail. Still, his message was a worthy one and remains so today. Won’t You Be My Neighbor? is a wonderful celebration of a wonderful man who touched countless lives and exemplified a life well lived. (94 min.) Δ —Glen Starkey New Times movie reviews were compiled by Arts Editor Ryah Cooley and others. You can contact her at rcooley@newtimesslo.com.

PLEASURES (featuring special guest Jack Black), seems to pull and prod from the after school special style genre such as Canada’s Degrassi. Week after week, the clones are faced with a problem and try to solve it. Sometimes, the show starts with a riot after a football game and then ends with the students learning a lesson and rioting in celebration. Lord and Miller binged watched episodes of Dawson’s Creek before beginning work on the series, and Clone High at times plays out as a mirror parody. For instance, the high school the clones attend host a prom seemingly every week. Meanwhile, one of the core story arcs follows the love triangle of Abe, Cleo, and popular jock and class president, JFK. There’s a whole cache of easily digestible humor for the viewer to consume. Such as the main hangout where JFK, his buddies, and the rest of the clones frequent is called “The Grassy Knoll” which features images of both Kennedy’s and Lincoln’s assassinations. I also am very easily won over by cheesy history jokes, like when Abe says he doesn’t like the Napoleon clone because he has “some kind of complex.” There’s another part where Gandhi tells Catherine the Great to, “get off her high horse.” It’s not for everyone, again, India was pretty miffed over the depiction of Gandhi. But for those of you with an itch for a flashback to the early 2000s and ’90s sitcoms and dramas, you can’t really go wrong with Lord and Miller’s hilarious stand-alone season of Clone High.

Get Out!

Down by the bay Morro Bay Museum of Natural History is a fun, quick summertime adventure

y housemate Jen and I are sitting around our kitchen table as the gloom of Saturday, July 2, fills our windows. For those who still haven’t come to terms with summer (like us), July rolls around like a slap in the face. This pesky month indicates summer is in full swing, a concerning fact since neither of us has anything to show for it. Despite the morning clouds, we decide an adventure is well overdue. After some back and forth, we settle on visiting the Morro Bay Museum of Natural History. Neither of us has been before, but it certainly seems like a worthy July outing. Driving along GPS-guided roads, we finally find the museum tucked among eucalyptus trees down State Park Road. The small building has a faded yellow and blue facade that gives us a gentle but warm greeting. We joke on our way to the door about how spontaneous and classy we are for visiting a museum. Once inside, it’s clear we’re the first visitors of the day. The museum

A MUSEUM FOR EVERYONE While much of the museum is geared toward a younger audience, many of the exhibits provide useful and engaging information for all ages.

staff of two turns their attention to us immediately. They annotate a map for us with the best places in Morro Bay for cormorant and sea otter sightings before we can even purchase our $3 tickets. The museum is a quirky mix of interactive exhibits. “Hands on” is the go-to descriptor; the staff encourages us to open drawers, push buttons, and look up. While most of the interactive elements seem to be geared toward children, they still elicit smiles from Jen and me. The floor-to-ceiling windows offer a stunning view of Morro Rock, which is the de facto mascot for the museum. Throughout the rooms, checkpoints have short wildlife facts told by Rocky, a cartoon version of the famous rock. I read one of these and learn the Morro Rock, at 578 feet high, is taller than the Statue of Liberty. A docent comes smiling into sight and addresses the small crowd. She ushers us to a back room, where a locally made video about sea otters is playing in front of a handful of folding chairs. We leave after a few minutes, but not before watching a few buoyant pups attempt to

dive. We giggle as the narrator describes them as “bobbing along like fuzzy corks.” The quiet museum cultivates a symphony of disparate sounds. Squeaky drawers open and shut, cylinders whirl, and children laugh. Jen and I crack jokes while reading about “BOFFFFs: Big, Old, Fat, Fertile Female Fish,” and a staff member comes up to ask if we are enjoying ourselves. I tell him we are. We exit through the same door we came in, making sure to use some of the hand sanitizer partly hidden on the front desk (if you do this museum right, you’ll need it). Getting in the car, we decide to extend the adventure a tad longer. We set course

for the sea otter hub one staff member kindly circled on the free map. In what feels almost like a necessary pilgrimage after our morning, we drive seven extra minutes to the spot, and a score of sea otters greets us. Other people are here for the sea otters as well, yet I wonder if they know that 1 square inch on a sea otter’s coat can contain 1 million hairs.

WHERE’S THE BEEF? DD Cattle Co. will bring the beef to wine country this Saturday, July 21, at Calwise Distillery in Paso Robles. From 4 to 9 p.m., sample specialty beef brats made with local wines and sip Calwise cocktails.

Wine in hand and beef Say howdy to wild, wine country cuts from DD Cattle Co.

n wine-centric Paso Robles, merlot sorbet is an old hat, every gas station’s got at least five world class bottles of cab on offer, and you can easily find artisanal brownies made with specific bottles of locally famous zinfandel (if you’re into that sort of thing). Some two decades after the first rebellious winemakers staked their claim in that dusty, dynamic soil, Paso Robles hasn’t just “arrived.” It’s exploded. Kinda makes a cow poke wonder: Has the wild, wild West of wine country finally been tamed? If you ask DD Cattle Company founder Doug Burkett, the answer is a firm but polite: “No, ma’am.” In fact, this marketing guru/wine industry-pro-turned-rancher might argue that he’s only grazed (see what I did there) the surface of what’s possible in Paso Robles wine country. When he looks out over his 74-head herd of cattle, he doesn’t just see premium, pasture-raised burgers, steaks, and prime rib. He sees spiced beef sausage made with a hefty glug of Paso Robles wine. He likes to call this concept: “wine in hand, wine in beef.” Burkett’s family history in cattle started with a Southern California ranch in La Crescenta. His great-grandfather purchased the 115-acre plot of land in 1934, and his grandpa continued the ranching tradition. “Now, I’m coming back to my roots and working with cattle, too,” Burkett said. This might sound like a normal progression in a long line of ranchers, but

this could not be farther from the truth. “I was in the wine industry for a long time, and my business partner and I started Rebel Coast Winery, an eclectic winery basically based on giving the middle finger to the industry,” Burkett said. Touted as “pairing well with ignoring your parents’ advice,” the brash San Mateo-based winery made a name for itself with bare, label-less bottles (you might recall the “Reckless Love” red, donning nothing but stenciled words and a graphic mustache). But this wasn’t a happy ending for Burkett, who—just last year—parted ways with the company and returned to his family’s second, 50-acre ranch near Paso Robles.

It was one of those “assess your life” situations. Before Burkett had the chance to run completely through the money he’d made in Bitcoin, a strange idea struck. Why not get into the family biz like his ancestors before? Why couldn’t a tech/ wine guy learn the ropes? Of course, he’d have to do it his own way. “The idea was to create a fun brand to shake up the market in a historic, traditionally run industry,” Burkett said. “I said, you know what? ‘Enough twiddling my thumbs and sulking—let’s do this. Hell yeah.’” That idea—to create custom beef boxes for local wineries and beef brats made HOW THE WINE WEST WAS WON DD Cattle Co. Founder Doug Burkett is mixing the appeal of Paso Robles wine with local, pasture-raised beef. Not only is his specialty sausage made with local wine, but you’ll soon be able to grab a wine-specific beef box at a wine pickup party near you.

THE BEEF CLUB Daniel Willem and his young son take part in ranching activities in Paso Robles, where DD Cattle Company is melding the worlds of beef and wine in new, super savory ways.

Where’s the beef?

Head to Calwise Distillery this Saturday, July 21, for the official DD Cattle Co. Launch Party. From 4 to 9 p.m., sample specialty meats and sip Calwise spirits. The party kicks off at 3340 Ramada Drive, suite B, in Paso Robles and tickets can be found at eventbrite.com. For more information, follow @ddcattleco on Instagram.

with local wine—might be a winning Paso Robles pairing. It’s a big risk, but Burkett is far from a shrinking violet. “It made sense. I knew a lot of these wineries would love to have some sort of beef club to give a little bit more than just the wine. This is a new experience entirely,” he said. “Being able to use their actual wine in our beef adds a sexy appeal to the wine club. Not only do you get to pair your wine with the meat, but the wine is actually in it.” This meaty wine country offering officially launches Saturday, July 21, at Calwise Distillery in Paso Robles with wine, beef, and cocktails. Burkett said he called about 35 wineries before eventually landing a partnership with iconic Paso Robles winery Rotta. Burkett’s business partner, local cattleman Daniel Willem, tends to the cows and ensures that the program is running smoothly and humanely. The blended herd includes black angus, red angus, and charolais, among a few other breeds. The animals graze grassy fields, where they can forage freely before being finished on a high protein grain. “It gives the meat great marbling and flavor,” Burkett said, adding that he’s teamed up with J&R Meats in Paso Robles to bring his cuts to the people. From tri-tips to ball steaks, roasts, and ribs, no part of the cow is wasted. “I give J&R Meats the local wine that works best with the beef, and they’ll put it directly into the brats,” Burkett said. “Each cow has its own spice that we come up with and its own wine that goes into FLAVOR continued page 45

that particular offering.” Rotta’s spicy zinfandel goes well with ginger root powder, Alaskan sea salt, orange, nutmeg, and bay leaf, so that’s exactly the spice used within that particular beef brat. Plan on attending the opening party coming up July 21, and you’ll even be privy to a gin-beef pairing. Try the brat infused with juniper berry, sage, lavender, oregano, lemon peel, and elderberry with a sip of Calwise gin. Years ago, no one could have predicted that this kind of thing would be quite expected in Paso Robles. Burkett himself never thought he’d be back on the ranch, staring into the long-lashed eye of his own cow—let alone a whole herd. But, here we are, and the grill is hot and ready. “We’ve had calves born on the ranch and even a mountain lion scare; we’ve had brandings out here, where everyone’s roping and riding,” Burkett said of his new life. “The stories are coming now, and it’s all coming together. After this launch, we’ll be going full throttle.” ∆

I mean, who really has time to cook dinner? If your summer is busy, I feel you. Still, maybe you should make room for one more event on your already packed calendar (hear me out). What if that blazing summer sun could actually help you put dinner on the table while you lounge in your blow-up pool for a spell? SLO Solar Cooks will present a cooking demonstration on Saturday, July 21, that promises to unlock this almosttoo-good-to-be-true idea. This casual introduction to solar cooking will show you how to safely cook beans, rice, baked bread, roast beef, chicken, pork, eggs, cakes, and potatoes with nothing but the powerful rays of the sun! Not only is solar cooking inexpensive, it’s also super good for the environment (and won’t heat up your already sweltering kitchen).

Attention is directed to the provisions of Section 2-1.02, “Required Listing of Proposed Subcontractors,” of the Special Provisions regarding the requirement that proposed subcontractors be listed in the bidder’s proposal. A “DESIGNATION OF SUBCONTRACTORS” form for listing subcontractors, as required, is included in the section titled “Bid Proposal and Forms” of the Contract Documents. This form must be completed and submitted with bidder’s bid proposal. All bonds and endorsements thereto to be submitted pursuant to this contract shall be written by a company authorized to do surety business in the State of California. Each bid must be accompanied by a form of bidder’s security, namely cash, certified check, cashier’s check, or bidder’s bond, in the amount of ten percent (10%) of the total of the bid. Within ten (10) calendar days, not including Saturdays, Sundays, and legal holidays, after receipt of notice that the contract has been awarded, the successful bidder, shall execute a written contract with the County in the form prescribed herein. At the time of execution of the contract, the successful bidder shall submit the certificates of insurance stipulated in Article 7 of the Agreement, and, in addition thereto, shall furnish a “Performance Bond” in the sum of one hundred percent (100%) of the contract bid to guarantee the performance of the contract, and a “Payment Bond” in the sum of one hundred percent (100%) of the contract bid. The bond forms are included in the section titled “Agreement” of the Contract Documents. Attention is directed to the provisions of Section 5-1.07, “Measurement and Payment,” of the Special Provisions permitting the substitution of equivalent securities for any moneys withheld to ensure performance of this contract. Said Section 5-1.07 is incorporated by reference in this invitation for bid as if fully set forth at length. Pursuant to Labor Code Section 1771.1, no contractor or subcontractor may be listed on the bid proposal for this public works project unless registered with the Department of Industrial Relations pursuant to Labor Code Section 1725.5. Pursuant to Labor Code Section 1771.1, no contractor or subcontractor may be awarded this public works contract unless registered with the Department of Industrial Relations pursuant to Labor Code Section 1725.5. This Project is subject to compliance monitoring and enforcement by the Department of Industrial Relations, pursuant to Labor Code Section 1771.4. The Board of Supervisors reserves the right to reject any or all bids, and to waive discrepancies, irregularities, informalities or any other errors in the bids or bidding, if to do so seems to best serve the public interest. The right of Board of Supervisors to waive errors applies even if the Contract Documents state that a discrepancy, irregularity, informality or other error makes a bid nonresponsive, so long as the error does not constitute a material error. The successful bidder must be licensed to perform the work in accordance with the laws of the State of California. Accordingly, the successful bidder shall possess a Class A general engineering contractor’s license at the time this contract is awarded. In the alternative, the successful bidder shall possess a specialty contractor’s license that permits the successful bidder to perform with his or her own organization contract work amounting to not less than 30% of the original total contract price and to subcontract the remaining work in accordance with Section 5-1.055, “Subcontracting,” of the Amendments to the Standard Specifications. Failure of the bidder to be properly and adequately licensed shall constitute a failure to execute the contract and shall result in the forfeiture of the bidder’s security. Bidders must satisfy themselves by personal examination of the location of the proposed work and by such other means as they prefer as to the actual conditions and requirements of the work, and shall not at any time after submission of the bid dispute, complain, or assert that there was any misunderstanding in regard to the nature or amount of work to be done. By order of the Board of Supervisors County of San Luis Obispo made this 11th day of July, 2018. Tommy Gong, County Clerk and Ex-officio Clerk of the Board of Supervisors By /s/Sandy Currens, Deputy Clerk July 19, 2018

Rob Brezsny’s Free Will Astrology Homework: Tell a story about the time Spirit reached down and altered your course in one tricky, manic swoop. Freewillastrology.com. ARIES (March 21-April 19): “Take a lover who looks at you like maybe you are magic.” Whenever that quote appears on the internet, it’s falsely attributed to painter Frida Kahlo. In fact, it was originally composed by poet Marty McConnell. In any case, I’ll recommend that you heed it in the coming weeks. You really do need to focus on associating with allies who see the mysterious and lyrical best in you. I will also suggest that you get inspired by a line that Frida Kahlo actually wrote: “Take a lover who looks at you like maybe you are a bourbon biscuit.” (If you don’t know what a bourbon biscuit is, I’ll tell you: chocolate buttercream stuffed between two thin rectangular chocolate biscuits.)

TAURUS (April 20-May 20): Here’s what author Franz Kafka wrote in his diary on Aug. 2, 1914: “Germany has declared war on Russia. I went swimming in the afternoon.” We could possibly interpret his nonchalance about world events to be a sign of callous self-absorption. But I recommend that you cultivate a similar attitude in the coming weeks. In accordance with astrological omens, you have the right and the need to shelter yourself from the vulgar insanity of politics and the pathological mediocrity of mainstream culture. So feel free to spend extra time focusing on your own well-being. (P.S.: Kafka’s biographer says swimming served this role for him. It enabled him to access deep unconscious reserves of pleasurable power that renewed his spirit.)

GEMINI (May 21-June 20): Am I delusional to advise a perky, talkative Gemini like yourself to enhance your communication skills? How dare I even hint that you’re not quite perfect at a skill you were obviously born to excel at? But that’s exactly what I’m here to convey. The coming weeks will be a favorable time to take inventory of how you could more fully develop your natural ability to exchange information. You’ll be in robust alignment with cosmic rhythms if you take action to refine the way you express your own messages and receive and respond to other people’s messages.

CANCER (June 21-July 22): Self-described skeptics sometimes say to me, “How can any intelligent person believe in astrology? You must be suffering from a brain dysfunction if you imagine that the movements of planets can reveal any useful clues about our lives.” If the “skeptic” is truly open-minded, as an authentic skeptic should be, I offer a mini-lecture to correct his misunderstandings. If he’s not (which is the usual case), I say that I don’t need to “believe” in astrology; I use astrology because it works. For instance, I have a working hypothesis that Cancerians like myself enjoy better-than-average insight and luck with money every year from late July through the month of August. It’s irrelevant whether there’s a “scientific” theory to explain why this might be. I simply undertake efforts to improve my financial situation at this time, and I’m often successful.

LEO (July 23-Aug. 22): Here are some of the fine gifts you’re eligible for and even likely to receive during the next four weeks: a more constructive and fluid relationship with obsession; a panoramic look at what lies below the tip of the metaphorical iceberg; a tear-jerking joyride that cracks open your sleeping sense of wonder; erasure of at least 20 percent of your self-doubt; vivid demonstrations of the excitement available from slowing down and taking your sweet time; and a surprising and useful truth delivered to your soul by your body.

VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22): During the last three months of 2018, I suspect you will dismantle or outgrow a foundation. Why? So as to prepare the way for building or finding a new foundation in 2019. From next January onward, I predict you will re-imagine the meaning of home. You’ll grow fresh roots and come to novel conclusions about the influences that enable you to feel secure and stable. The reason I’m

revealing these clues ahead of time is because now is a good time to get a foreshadowing of how to proceed. You can glean insights on where to begin your work.

LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 22): A reader asked Libran blogger Ana-Sofia Cardelle, “How does one become more sensual?” I’ll ask you to meditate on the same question. Why? Because it’s a good time to enrich and deepen your sensuality. For inspiration, here are some ideas that blend my words with Cardelle’s: “Laugh easily and freely. Tune in to the rhythm of your holy animal body as you walk. Sing songs that remind you why you’re here on earth. Give yourself the luxury of reading books that thrill your imagination and fill you with fresh questions. Eat food with your fingers. Allow sweet melancholy to snake through you. Listen innocently to people, being warm-hearted and slyly wild. Soak up colors with your eager eyes. Whisper grateful prayers to the sun as you exult in its gifts.”

SCORPIO (Oct. 23-Nov. 21): “If people aren’t laughing at your goals, your goals are too small.” So says bodybuilder Kai Greene. I don’t know if I would personally make such a brazen declaration, but I do think it’s worth considering—especially for you right now. You’re entering into the Big Bold Vision time of your astrological cycle. It’s a phase when you’ll be wise to boost the intensity of your hopes for yourself, and get closer to knowing the ultimate form of what you want, and be daring enough to imagine the most sublime possible outcomes for your future. If you do all that with the proper chutzpah, some people may indeed laugh at your audacity. That’s OK!

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21): This mini-chapter in your epic life story is symbolically ruled by the fluttering flights of butterflies, the whirring hum of hummingbird wings, the soft cool light of fireflies, and the dawn dances of seahorses. To take maximum advantage of the blessings life will tease you with in the coming weeks; I suggest you align yourself with phenomena like those. You will tend to be alert and receptive in just the right ways if you cultivate a love of fragile marvels, subtle beauty, and amazing grace.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19): I swear the astrological omens are telling me to tell you that you have license to make the following requests: 1. People from your past who say they’d like to be part of your future have to prove their earnestness by forgiving your debts to them and asking your forgiveness for their debts to you. 2. People who are pushing for you to be influenced by them must agree to be influenced by you. 3. People who want to deepen their collaborations with you must promise to deepen their commitment to wrestling with their own darkness. 4. People who say they care for you must prove their love in a small but meaningful way.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18): You will never find an advertisement for Nike or Apple within the sacred vessel of this horoscope column. But you may come across plugs for soul-nourishing commodities like creative freedom, psychosexual bliss, and playful generosity. Like everyone else, I’m a salesperson — although I believe that the wares I peddle are unambiguously good for you. In this spirit, I invite you to hone your own sales pitch. It’s an excellent time to interest people in the fine products and ideas and services that you have to offer.

PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20): Would you do me a favor, please? Would you do your friends and loved ones and the whole world a favor? Don’t pretend you’re less powerful and beautiful than you are. Don’t downplay or neglect the magic you have at your disposal. Don’t act as if your unique genius is nothing special. OK? Are you willing to grant us these small indulgences? Your specific talents, perspectives, and gifts are indispensable right now. The rest of us need you to be bold and brazen about expressing them. ∆
